Min or RICHARD TIDD AND WILLIAM DAVIDSON
This morning Mr. Baron GARROW, Mr. Justice
11Err, the COMMON SKRJEANT, &c. took their
seats at nine o'clock. On the arrival of the AT-
TORNEY-GENERAL, Mr. BULLAND, and the Coun-

sei for the prisoners in this case, some communi-
cation took place between the Learned Gentl'e-
rneu and in consevence of an apvarent
.14r. Baron GAtutow said, that the Learned
Counsel for the prisoners hall requested a
6ort time, in order that the accused persons
should be consulted.--Shortly after, Mr. HAtt-
•/441t. who had been with the prisoners, came
Iwo Court, and it was then stated from the:
'bench that two of the prisoners had consented
In take their trials together, and not to separate
their challenges, for the purpose of saving time.
Richard Tidd and William Davidson (tire man
"f colour), were then put to the Bar, and the
Clttlt proceeded to call over the Jury.
The prisoners cba;lenged 28, and the Crown 23.
"—The following Gentlemen were then sworn in

William Piercy,

the Jury at considerable length.
The other prisoners were then brotight

smitten, as on the tot mer

Tidd is a mar) about 53 years of age, and of
respectable appearance. Davidson was respectably
dressed, and both of them behaved in a manner
&coining their unfortunate situation.
Lord ROBERT SEYISInint end several other Gen-
dellen were on the Bench,- but the Court was by
10 means crowded.

John Thomas Brunt was yesterday found Guilty
en the third and fourth entpitS of the Jtlictinent.
(For further particulars, see the fourth page)
The Court ordered that Mr. CLEMENT, the Pro-
prietor of The Observer Newsparr, should appear
in Court ,on Friday morning, to answer for his
conduct in publishing the proc..editigi of the
Efate Trials, in defiance of the- .sider of the Court.

Returns from the following places, will be pre-
vented within 14 days from to morrow :—Bo-
toaghbridge,. Calliogton, Petetsfield. Leominster,
Bishop's Castle., Nottingham, Berwick, Trezoity,
Cambridge Town, 'Maidstone, Ip‘wich, Chester,
sod Portsmouth, and it is genes all) understood
that the whole of them will not exceed 20. Ii is
thought, that two days in etch week will be ap-
pointed for the ballots of Election Committ. es ;
snd that the Parliament will not terminate its
sittings until the beginning of August.
If it be true that the Roman Catholics of Eng-
land and Ireland will not concede that their
Church in temporalities and spirituals shall be
subject to the power of, the Imperial Legislature,
of which they are anxious to become Nl'mbers,
though the Church of England, the Church of
Seotland, and the Protestant Dissenters from both
these Establishments, are under the controul and
txist by the Statittable Regulations of the Conn-
hy—we really wiA) to know on what principle it
is, that the Papists claim the right to be admitted
to the Legislature and State, if they will not con-
sent to the power of the former ?
The Protestant Cause has lost one of its most
sincere and powerful Supporters by the death of
the late Dean of CARLISLE—the Rev. Dr. MuNex.
Private letters state, that Sir H. WeLeas-
LCX was about to retire front the Bri ish
tion at Madrid. This is not ascribed to any di•-
satisfaction felt by our Government at the recen'
change in Spain, but to feetings ot alienation be•
tweet, Sir HENRY and the party now at the head
of affairs at Madrid. It is evt n reported in Paris,
that the Blitish Court has signified its a, probe-
; lion of the new system ot Constitutional Govern-
Ment, which the KING and the nation have con-

jointly etahlistied.—(Morning Herald.)
It is expected tha► the KING will hold a Levee
in the 'course of next week, for the purpose of re-
ceiving the congratulations of the Nobility and
Gentry upon his MAJNSTY'S accession to the
Throne.
A Cabinet Council was held at the Earl of LI-
VIIRPOOL'S house in IVbitehall, on Monday night,
at halt past ten o'clock. So unexpected and ur-
gently did the Noble Lord issue the summouses.
that they were sent by messengers to call the
Alembers of the Cabinet trout their dinner parties•
(Court Newsman.)
Yesterday forenoon a Cabinet Council was
beld at the Foreign Office, which was attended by
all ihe Cabinet Ministers, except the LonD CHAN.,
caLLoa and Lord MuLDaAvE.

Letters received in town yes! erdaY by a raer-
-cantile house connected with Berlin, state that
there has been a serious cornn►otion in that me-
tropolis,and that the military had been obliged
to disperse an assemblage of the people from be-
fore the Palace. This is all that is known.
Mrs. Bscuatt.—We are sorry to hear a report
that this Lady, to whom the Vublic was so much
tt►debted for theatrical amusement, h►►s lately been
aiiiicted with a serious tualady her eyes.

INCREASE OF TRADE:

MR.EmTott—Ai 1 prefer the anticipation of good
to the foreboding of evil, I am happy to congratu-
late the Morning Chrimicle upon the gorid humour
with which it records the rise of wagesin the Hat
trade, by the unaninions consent of the Mantitac-
Curers in the vicinity of Manchester. " This," it
observes, copying from a Country Paper, " is the
way to cure Radicalism." Now, Sir, if this does
cure Itai!icalism, even in one breast only, 1 hail
the act as a judicious one ; but the Chronicle does
not seem to recollect that a rise i❑ the price of
wages must produce a rise in the price of bats,
unless we are to suppose the hatters so charitable
that they will pay dearer for labour than its price
in the market, yet sell their goods at the old

prices.
How Mr. Morning Chronicle may manage as to
old hats 1 won't pretend •0 say, byt luiptesume
that in the purchase of new ones, whatever he may
feel, he is not inclined to go above the market-
price, and will have not only the best but the
cheapest, without regard to manufacturers,' wages!
It, however, ti)e wages of the working classes
are raised, the Public must not grumble at higher
prices; we have no right to expect the Manufac-
turers to make sactifices, it the Public t efuse to
support them There is no more claim upon a
Master Mannticturer to pay his men above the
marke• price of labour, than
.there is for the
Chronicle ,o sell its Incubi. itions at half-price.

Bor to le...ye this tit.plea..soit soi)j'ec, for another
favonrire one of the lti3oenina Chronicle.—"

ters must do something to relieve the general distress."
'ell, Sir, and Minisiev,:, aided by the generons
cousiderallpii of his MAJESTY, have done som,!-
thing to relieve the genet:Li r!is•ress ;--not indeed

by inntt, speeches at tliver.l tiinfiC,s, nor by dia-
tribes in what are called .1 Prints;"
but by gradin I yet efficitzut a moi.tation.

TO l►Wov ti:ft, I must go to bumble subjects;
but " if iritlts make he sum tit human bliss,"

so do they tdsc. form the aar;r'•l:a'e of political
wet. ire. Nov, Sir, I speati as to tac,s that have
taken place 10 consevence of his Nliej*.sty'ri pa-
triotic iiiteorioo to the rep►esentations of the

Shoplieepers of :.,ondon and 'Ne.•min3ter, in re-
gard to the shortening Of G.tirt-nboi,rning, even
in the snoit interval ‘inct: the notification in the

GAztt:e.

I 'wilier understand, that in the Silk, Haber-
dsshei y, and Farley lines alone, sine the Court
mournine Gazette, upwards of Six THOUSAND
individuals have been brought from idleness into
activity in the Metropolis—that in these lines
alone, a sum of 300,0001. kis already been paid
into the Treasury, whit It would otherwise have
dormant—nay, Sir, I can state another fact
so extraordinary, that some of your Readers will
scarcely believe it to be a tat,—it is that in the
Soap Trade, upwards of 50,0001. in Customs and
Excise, have found their way into the Treasury,
solely upon the speculation of the wear of wash-
able articles.
But there is another consideration connected
with this, which !iowever ludicrous, is not unde-
serving of not tee—and if Mr. Morning Chronicle
has ever seen a washing tot), in toll activity, he
Rill not octiv tky calcula ion, that for every quar-
ter of a pound of soap dashed into suds by the
hands of a fair blanehisseuse, we may reckon one
pi7!ch of snuff, anti for eery pound, at least one
pint of porter and one%:lass,of 4111!
Piero, Mr Edifor, ;here have I shown an
overflow for the Treasury—there have 1 got Mr.
Morning Chronicle iu the suds, and there I leave
him.

I. G. N.

We trust that the Let ter of the Rev. Dr. KELLY,
against the Education of the lower orders in I ie.
land, will be extensively circulated in Great
Britain !
The Life of the late Rev. JoHN WastsY, writ-
ten by Mr. Sotrrn ay, which was published a few
days since, is out of print, though it was an Ito-
pressiou of 1500 copifs. We shall avail ourselves
of an early opportunity of noticing this work in
our Literary Review, as we 'are convinced, from
the character of Ml'. WESLEY, and the eminent
talent, of his Biographer, that we shall be able to
afford a high and gratifying treat to our Readers.
il:any valuable typographical works are now in
a 'course of publication, which only require to be
known to ensure a more general circulation of
them.
The presentation of the Cambridge and Oxford
Universities' Addresses to the KING, on the 28th
inst. will, we understand, be most numerously
attended.
Six of the KING'S carriages, which bad been
sent to the coachmakers to be painted the fa-
vourite colour of his late MAJESTY, have been
completed, and they have a very rich and beauti-
ful effect.
