GENUINE COFFEES.

DEACON and Co., of the COFFEE-MART,
2, Skinner-street, Snow-hill, London, established by
the British Coffee Planters and Merchants in 1811, take this
opportunity of appcaringsbefore the Public, to return their,
most sincere thanks for the patronage and,support thCy hare
so liberally afforded them, from the commencement of their
opening the Coffee Mart, and to as§ure them, it" has been
their constant study to sell a truly genuine article on the must,
reasonable terms.

DEACON and CO. think it necessary to impress on the
minds of the Public, that as the article of Coffee is subject to
great adulterations, it becOmes a matter of importance to
families and to the Public in general to be informed, that the
Coffee Mart was opened under the auspices of a respectable
body of West India Merchants and Planters, who, had for
their object the introduction of a wholesome beverage, at the
very lowest prices the markets would admit of, and at the
same time, of genuine and finest quality.
DEACON and CO. trust the PUblie will give them credit,'
when they confidently assure them, they have at all times,
adhered to the professions they have made, viz. that of vend-
ing a genuine wholesome beverage without the smallest
adulteration or mixture of any,nature or. kind whatever.

DEACON and CO. beg to add, they have appointed most

and, that mercy becomes the prerogatiive of the
Subject rather than' of the Sovereign, while the
'subject has the 'discretion of judging where its
regal.exereise maybe, as Amtcus terms it,

It is not I wbb offend that mercy, by Etyling
its exercise iti London a " corrparative impu-
nity;" but it is I who style the power of its
non,exercise any where else a " comparative"
severity.. Will Ablicys contend, that its opera-
tion in London is unfair ? Or, that its extension
into the country would be unjust) But he over-

triumphantly informs me, that 'the Judges of
AsSize, thar,.in some places, the chartered Ma-

and, that the clerical character opposes "no bar to
the magistratical function. I was not quire so un-
read, as not to know—together with a little more
of the judicial history of Peterborough than
Ammo's would willingly credit -me for—that all
this is so. I only said, as I say still, that it ought
not to be so.
Alutcus must dip somewhat more deeply into " the
State Trials." before he talks again so fteely of
Bishops and cases of blood. Theie Reverend Per,
sonages, who sit in' their legislative capacities, as
Barons, in the tipper House, :do " retire" from
their seat as soon the -assumption of the
Lords' judicial.fonetion—it becomes a "'seat of
judgment." With the Court of the Lord High
-Steward they have no concern, not being them-
selves Peers; and incapable therefore of trying,
where they cannOt be tried: The Constitutions
of Clarendon, with which the determination of
the Lords in the Earl of Danby's case agrees;
have acknowledged their tight of sitting upon
trials in the Court of the King in Parliament Inv-NE.

" rca-

rof a Peer before that August Court'--almost as
august as the Bench of Peterborough Justices—a
Lord High Steward is appointed ; not as the sole
,Tude,:but as a Chairman or Speaker; and the
whole body of the Peers (himself among them as
A Peer) are judges of the law as well as of the
fact. But AMICUS, am afraid, confounds this
with the Lord High Steward's Court, wherein the
Peers judge the tact, and' he the law—not reeol.!

leering that the Bishops, having no Peerage, are
not conversant with that Court.

The case, however, is still stronger.--The 131.
shops eysint a baronial right, as Lords of Parlia-
tneot, to vote on trials of blood but they
ways Previously ".retire,'' with a protest of their
right to stay—an example which the Reverend
Justice in " the Liberty of Peterborough" will do
well to imitate !

Conscience, and,the.Canon Law, weigh more"
strongly with the Bishop of Peterborough than
does his secular right of blood;—let us hope that
they will not have less power with his subordinate,
Clergy. I do'not deny the. Reverend Magistrate's
" right," to try, to sentence, and to hang horse-
stealers; I merely question the propriety of its
exercise. And I know that every pious, moral,
and feeling heart is in my favour.- This nnreve-:
rend coalition of the spiritual and legal functiOns.

Is only to be fond among our less elevAitql

Clergy—very rarely, I liope—ancl never again, I
hope still more fervently. To say that a Clerg'y-
wan does not sit upon trials of life and death, be-

cause he i 9 a Judge only, and not a Juror, does

not alter the question. I must hear arguments
of more value, befdre I put myself to the trouble
of answering thew.
TO .talk of the voice of the penitent criminal
being always loud enough to reach the Royal ear, is-
worse than verbia:::e, -while the Jasiiees who have

since, in Amtcus's opinion, THEY are to decide
‘. when the King's mercy, can be, reasonably and
consistently extended." IVill .41ticus. tell me,
however, that the Peterbormigh Magistrates have
NEVER hanged a horse or a steep-stealer, WITH..

(Ayr laying the case before die Sovereign ? That.

they 11-ieALWAYS given the opportunity of this
discretion for its exercise ? 1.
expect to hear dg'aiti frOm AMICUS, or some other
advocate of his argument, I pause until my next
