rittxtii NEWSPAPERS.

Nett New Year's aty, when they old Calen-
dar is to be reinstated in its anciont• privileges, a
very remarkable alteration wilt take place in the
Literature of Politics. The number of News,-
papers at Paris will be reduced,to Live, or, at most
seven. •

1. The Noniteur, as the Official Paper; the Pro-
prietors of which are 11.1. arr, i;eeretary css' tate, and
AGASSR.
.BAIMERr, is the .Author, or rather the
,iiditor of the observations,. contbrufably to the ideas
fornislited by the ExrEaurt himself; which are often
annexed in thedlloniteur, in particular to articles ex-
traCtea from the English tapers. ',).'he ternarks arc fre-
quently by the EMPEROR hilriSelf; this was the case
with the Note in whiCh the report that EUUENE
BEAttilitliNOlS courted the hand of the Queen, of
liTattatA, was contradicted, and the ridiculous con-
duet of certain flatterers, who endeavoured to force
upon the BONATARTE Family a -multitude.of ances-
,tors, was treated with such severity e"The family
®f BONAP4ItTE dates from the 18t11 Urumaire," is
an expression in the Moniteur of the 26th and 2(ith
of Messidor, which is really remarkable. In this
the 'journal de Park received a reprimand, without
being mentioned ; for that Paper had inserted the
obnoxious pretemions which had caused the author
of the above-mentioned Note to say : w'y a rich
de plus datoefena. qu'un sot oral ; and the Journal de.
Paris was obliged to copy this note.

52. The Journal de Paris; the ,property of the
Couniellor of State, Rcleptardt, and the Secretary of
State, Almon-, as the demi-official Journal.

3.' The Gazette de Frante, for which the Emperor
NAPOLEON personally interests Emit:Wand whose
importauca the Attentiye render might
deduce from this circumstance, that, for some tirne,
the Monitoir hag, almost daily, copied articles from
it, and clawed it as its authority.-. •
4. The Journal des !SpeCiacles, which is particu-
larly patronized by the 'Ernpresi ,losurtittgE.

•
b. The old ?elites. 417 t•
ches. For some years two
Journals have existed sander this title; , tine Of t'heui
has been established for a century ; the other 'arose
from rivalship„dutiug the period of the Ilevolution.
Large portions will be granted upon these Jour-
nals. Tlio Proprietori, act:coding as they are more
or less supported, will sacrifice a larger or stnaller
portion of their profits, ass-I.vas formerly the CaSe.
Ati experiment of this kind has already been made
'with die Journal des Debats on which, pensions,
to the amount of too livres, have been granted, be-
came it has such a'considerable sale. Were this not'
the case, it would several times have been suppress-
ed. Its existence is to cease with the new
zation. In order to avert the impendiog, storm,
the Abbe ChtOFFRUY has, since the with Messidor,
assumed ti.e title of Journal de I%empire, and flatters
most grossly. The .Palicisie, and the Journal de
'Commerce, will, probably be suffered to continue.'
Whether the .drgus and the
fugue, edited by lianatittE, which has very few
readers, and has hitherto ben supported by the
Government, will be continued, appears very
certain.

A few days ago as same Gentlemen were hunting
astray Buck, nun Swindon, Wilts, Mr..R.flughes,
of Salthrep, one.of the party, imme.liately.on the
dogs seizing the 'animal, alighted front his horse to
kill him, when he suddonly turned, laid forcing his
horn into Mr. thigh, ieved with him over a
ledge heir the spat. He .was taken tune almost.

LAY REPOE74.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Tutsrmy, tiay. 19.

TIDE REV. WM. HODGES'.

Mr. Seijeant,Vanottax applied tin a Cri!n;nal
Information against this Gentleman, who is a Ma-
gistrate of the County of Nottingham. The Court
would be aware that an Ad of Parliament was
passed in the. Reign of Geo. I. which prohibited the
granting of Licences for I'ublie4touses,- excepting
between the Ist and both of September. Mr.
Hodges and Mr. Neville, another i‘lagistrate, at- '
tended on the 16th of that month for the purpose,
and numerous applications were then made. The
subsequent day a person ut the name of Ilaine ap-
plied to Mr. Neville, and told him that he occupied
a house in a neighbouring village, in which a place
of public resort was very znuch wanted :.and that if
Mr. Neville .would agree to give him a ticttric, Mr.
Hodges would have no objeUion. , To this Mr.
Nevihe assented. It afterwards appeared that Itaine
was on terms of the greatest intimacy with the De-.
&admit, and that' instead of a Publio.hotve being
raillired in the village to which he belonged, two
establishments of that nature already ethted. A
few days afterwards Mr, Neville was cilied upon
by Mr. Hodges to fulfil his engagement, when,
having been made acquainted with Raine's' decep-
tion, he told Mr. Hodges that he thought a person
who had praised such an impoziton was unfit 'to
be trusted with a Licence. Mr. Hodges replied,
' that it 11,41 S of every little consequence to hint whe-
ther Mr. Neville :tett:tied' or riot ; he' ittimelf was
invested with the power of'giving - two
,votes, and
therefore that Gentleman's
_consent would not bo
required; but. that he (Mr. Hodges) would annul
all the Licences eranted in the County. Mr. Neville
persisting in his refusal, Mr. Hodgeg:procared the
~
Licence to be subscribed by' Lord Galway, against
whom the Learned Counsel WilS likewise Instrudted
,to move; but thinking that the NOW Lord might
not be acquainted with the circumstances of the case
he had omitted his name in the applicatiOn to the
Court..
Lord ELLENBOROUGI3.-" I think the case which
is brought before us requires explanation."

ANDPIRSON V. ROYAL EXCHANGZ lAISUAANGK•

coxra NY.

Mr. CI.AItICE said that in this ease there had been
a Special Verdia., It was on an Aclion broUght for
the total loss of a cargo of corn froal Waterford to
Liverpool. The. question 'for the consideration of
the Court was, if the Plaintiff were entitled to re-
cover for a total loss; or if the Plaintiff could only
recover a part of such loss ? The Vessel struck upon
a rock near Waterford, and sunk, on the 213th of Ja-
nuary, and the -time from that perlod to the 23d Of
Yebruary was employed in endeavours to save tit&
cargo.

Mr. PARK, on the contrary, said that the Ship was
stranded on the 28th of January, mid, mtil the 23d
of February, no notice of. the anandonmenk had
been transmitted to the Underwriters; lle there-
fore contended, 'that . judgment sliould ,go tar the
Defendants.
- The Court, however, considering ti It there
might he some queition for the Jury, althr,:ugh at
present the Defendants were entitled to tivi
meet, and tho Court might on fixture occasion be
induced to grant a new Trial ; at presit, there-
fore, their Lordships gave judgment Nisi for the
Defendants.
The greater part of the morning was occupied in
the case of Ward, on the demise of Smith, Dan-
vers, respealing the constru6tion of two clauses in
the Statute of Frauds, in whit! the Judgment of
the Court was postponed.'

In the Cause of Plantarnore v: Swardoif (for
which vit,ie our Report of Fridny, Dec. i+, 1804),
the Court wave the Counsel on each side time to
consider whether it would not he expedient to turn
the Cxse ioto a Special Veldic:t.
