efforts. An Opposition Paper, alluding'to the case
of TOPHAM, the Serjeant at Arms, against whom
there was a judgment in the- King's Bench, in the
reign of CHARLES 11. for illegal proceedings, under
the SpeAKEtes Warrant, states, that immediately

the business into their consideration, and " sum-

the Chief Justice, and Sir THOMAS JONES, one of
the Judges, and they were required to account for

! plain and justify • their decision. Their arguments
against the JURISDICTION Of the HOUSE were most
forcible."
Now, in point of fact, the Judges, instead of argu-

mons, atlmitted it in the strongest terms. Sir

By the last accounts from Gibraltar we learn,
that though at Marbella the people were at first irre-
solute whether they should oppose the enemy, the,
arrival of the mountaineers of the Sierra, who nailed
up the cannon of the castle, and took out the silver,
which had been already packed up to carry, it to
Malaga, so encouraged them, that they took up
arms and joined the insurre&ion of the Sierra.
From the same place we learn, that the pretended
King JOSEPH left Malaga on the i 3th of the present
month, and that Osuna is entirely free.

GOLILM QUIS DICERS FALSUM AUDFEAT?

LONDON,

THURSDAY, APRIL 19, 1810.

Dutch Papers to the tsth inst. arrived this morn-
ing, but they contain very little news of importance.
LOUIS BuoNAPARTE has been permitted to return to
Holland, retaining his title of King, but exercising
the duty of a Prefect. The French and Dutch
Papers are still filled with accounts of BUONAFARTE'S
marriage.

A report was circulated this morning, that ac-
counts had been received of a battle having been
fought between the British Army under Lord WEL-
LINGTON, and the French : upon inquiry, however,
we find that it is wholly without foundation.

A Letter has been received from Plymouth stat-
ing, that an American Captain had arrived there,
who had taken JEFFERY, the sailor, from the Island
of Sombrero; that he had eaten away part of his
own flesh, And that' be died two hours after be was
taken off the Island. Our Plymouth Correspon-
_
. dent, upon whose accuracy we place the .most
im-
plicit confidence, is silent upon the subject, and we
have very little doubt that this story has been-fabri-
cated for the worst of purposes. We believe that
no instance can be found where any person suffering
under the pressure of faminehas eaten his own flesh.

Although we think it would be proper,- as the
question reyectiog Sir FRANCIS 13URIDETT is to
