SOLEM QUIS DICERE EALSUM AUDEAT ?

LONDON,
MONDAY, APRIL 24, 1820.

We received yesterday and this morning the
Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday last.
The Projet respecting the Financial Accounts
was at length gone through on Wednesday, and
agreed to by a majo:ity of 182 to 2b. A Petition
was reported upon from the inhabitants of the
Canton of Pontrieux, Department of the Cotes du
Nord, against the laws recently passed, which
M. BENJAMIN CONSTANT moved to refer to the
Minister of the Interior, but the Order of the Day
upon it, as recommended by the Committee, was
declared to be carried. The Bureaux were to be
occupied on Thursday with the new Election Pro-
jet, and there was to be no public Sitting of the
Chamber either on that day or Friday.
Wednesday the KING transacted business with
the Baron PASQUIER and the Count Simms:. In.
the afternoon his MAJESTY transacted business
with the Duke de RtclieLtntr, who, on leaving
the KING'S Cabinet, paid a visit to the Duke
d'A N GOULEM E.

The health of the Duchess de BERRI is said to
he very satisfactory, and the Gazette de France adds,
" There is every reason to hope that the wishes
'of France will be realized."

We give in another column a letter written by
MM. LAFAYETTE, BONJAMIN CONSTANT, LA•
FtTTR, and six other Deputies, to M. BELLART,
the King's Procureur-General in the Cour Royale
of Paris, respecting the prosecution of some of

the persons who signed tl►e Prospectus of the Sub-
scription for the relief of persons detained in
custody under the new law, together with the
answer of M. BELLART. They call upon M.BEL-
LART to apply to the ChambEr in the terms of the
Charter in order to include them in the prosecu-
tion, lit to which demand M. BRLLART evades

giving any answer. •
It is said in a Nuremberg article, that there are
to be some grand reviews in Hungary in Septem-
ber, at which the Emperor of RUSSIA and the
fling of PRUSSIA are expected to be present.
The following are Extracts from the Journals
of Friday :

" MADRID, APRIL 11.-An order of the Mini-
ster of the Interior, dated the 6th instant, states

it to be his Majesty's pleasure, that no passports
should be given to the persons formerly in the
employ of Joseph, to return to the Kingdom until
the Cortes have finally decided as to what course
is to be pursued respecting them.

An order of the Minister of War states his

Maj.sty's high displeasure at the conduct of one
of his Guards, who hid used language initn;cal to

e Cfilistittition.

YKLTN, Aertit. 15.—it is said that the first
movers of the Revolution are in correvondence

with each other from Pampeluna to Cadiz, sill
that they do not altogether agree with the Cell'
tral Junta.

,e There is a report of some fermentation
amongst the troops under General Cruz de gut"
geon at Xeres."

This day must be gratifying to a loyal People'
as it is formally to be celebrated as the birth-dil
of our new MONARCH, whose reign we trust
be auspicious, as it commences with the security °
the Empire from domestic enemies, who evidentlf
aimed at the subversion of the Government vvilti
all the horrors of a sanguinary Revolution. The
Palk and Tower guns were of course discharged'
on the occasion, in the usual manner.

The trial of i:gcs, another of the wretched Mel/
concerned in the Cato-street Conspiracy, tertill.
nated like that of Thistlewood, in the convictioo
of the offender on Saturday. tie was found Guilti
on the first and third Counts in the Indictment, vk'
for compassing, imagining, intending,. &c. &c. to
depose the KING, and for the several overt-act/
which manifested the purpose in view.

We are sorry to find that the Editor of a Week
Paper has exposed himself to danger, from too
eager a desireto gratify public curiosity, by inserting
yesterday a full report of those Trials, the public*.
tion of which was prohibited by the Court, till
the whole of them are completed. We barillY
need say, that for our own sake, we shall impli'
citly obey the orders of the Court, but we can al'°
conscientiously add, that we do so from a sense
of justice, and a feeling of mercy towards the PO'
soners, that no partial statement may operate 50
their prejudice. The order of the Court 19
obviously founded in justice, mercy, and sound
discretion. As some witnesses are ordered
to withdraw. from the Court that their evidence
may not be biassed and modified by the tests'
mony of others, it is a fortiori more necessary that
details of the trials should not appear till the con'
elusion of the whole, to prevent a more enlarge
opportunity for the same injurious purpose.

We refer our Readers to the Speech of Air•
PHILLIPS, the celebrated Irish Banister, in 041
fourth page this day. The eloquence of this Gen"
demist' has been justly admired. It has some
times displayed too much exuberance of itnBgit"
tion, and too much metaphorical luxuriance, bat
it bas always been marked by genius, good *ewe,
and a benevolent disposition, The speech refer.
red to contains some excellent observations, toll
is supported by impressive truths, and sound cog"
stitutional principles, ani►nated by the genuit►s
spirit of loyalty, it sl►ews also that his pregnant
imagination is more under the controul of in"
proved taste and judgment, and we trust that fs.
will be perused with pleasure and advarnage.

Saturday thc_KING left town about one b'clotkl,
in his travelling carriage, escorted by a party
Light Horse, for his. Palace at Windsor.

On Saturday last, at the Convocation held or:
St. Paid's, the Dean of Westminster was chosen!,
for the second time, erolocutor, by the Clergy 0'
the Province of Canterbury. The Dean's Oradell
is expected w be delivered at Westminster on 53#'
turday next.

Sir JOHN LEICESTER, we find, does not oPetl
his Gallery this season. It was so much fre'
quented, owing to the liberal indulgence of the
worthy Baronet last year, that some pause mg
be proper to give a new stimulus to curiosity on
a future occasion, when a ,new race of visitor
may be gratified, as well by the present excelleur
collection, as by what the taste and liberal spiiit
of the owner may add to it hereafter.
On Saturday_a Cabinet Council was held et
three o'clock, at the Foreign Office, which u"l4
attended by all the Cabinet Ministers. They.colv
tinned in deliberation till past five o'clock•
We are happy to say the Duchess of Yoo
continues to improve. _ _ _ _

This morning the proceedings against the Cato-
•strcet Conspirators were resumed. At eight
b'clotk the Court was opened, but, with t'►e ex-
cel►tiun of the regular Officers, very few persons
i►►►ieetl were present. At nine o'clock, the LORD
CHIEF BARON, Mr. Baron GARRow, and Mr.
J‘tstice RICHARD3ON took their seats on the
Beach.

James Brunt was put to the Bar, and the Jury
Were called, several of whom were challenged by
the Plisoner, and also by the Crow n, It will
Le recollected, that at the house of this individual
a considerable quantity of the combustibles were
found which have beets produced in Court on
the former trials

The ATTORNEY • GENERAL rose, and observing
itimo a violation of the older of the Court in the
the proceedings of the trials before,
their final conclusion, said, he should not for the
present interrupt the proceedings, but he should
feel it his bounden duty to bring the case before
their Lordships.—(The Learned Counsel alluded
to a certain Sunday Newspaper.)
Mr. BoLLAND shortly opened the proceedings,
and the ATTORNEY-GENRRAL having stated the
*rations circumstances in which the prisoner was
implicated, he proceeded to call witnesses for the
Crown,
Robert Adams was placed in the witnesses Box;
Li& testimony was similar to that which hat: been
riven on the other trials, and his examination
lasted the whole of the morning.

The Court was but thinly attended this day.
The appearance of Brunt is certainly much more
tespectahle than that of most of his companions,
end his general deportmen. is respectful.—The
Number of Versons round the Sessions House is
*noel) less this day, than on any former one since

[FURTHER PARTICULARS OF SATURDAY'S PRO-
CEEDINGS.]

After Mr. ADoLPHys had concluded 11;a able
ttidress in defence of ilia Prisoner, James Ings,
Lord Chief-Justice DALLAS asked the prisoner whether he
1/13S satis6ed with the defence which had been made for him
by his counsel, or wished to add any thing from himself ?

The Prisoner—" My Lord, I should wish to explain how
became involved in this business."
CutEv—tosztcE—" You are at liberty to state any thing.,
and every thing, that you may judge proper for your defence
tut you had, perhaps, better first consult with your cou:,sel."

Mr, Harmer's clerk (Mr. Harmer himself being absent)
stepped forward, and consulted for some minutes with the
phone'',
Togs then proceeded to address the Jury. tie said he was a
plain uneducated man, and hoped the Jury would hear Lim
with indulgence. He now gave a.very minute narrative of
circumstances which had happened to hint since leaving
PQrtsea, iu August last. In several parts of his Address he
was violently agitated, and wept bitterly, especially when he
'mentioned his own poverty, and the distress of his family.—.
ale continued speaking for about 20 minutes:
The Loan CHIEF Jusytee, on ascertaining from the pri-
soner that he had finished what he had to say, called on the
Attorney-General for his reply.
The prisoner (pulling a paper out of his pocket), " I for-
got-; here is a certificate, which will show the gentlemen what
My character has always been."
The paper was handed up to the Bench, but the Lord
Chief-Justice said it could not be received as evidence.
The ATTORNET-GENERAL then proceeded with his reply.
The Lord Chief Justice DALLAS summed up the evidence
'with the most careful impartiality, and the utmost per-
spicuity. He said that, however unparalleled in the hiss
tory of human wickedness, the end and object of the
Conspiracy was to assassinate the King's Ministers, the
crime would not amount to high treason ; but they would
say whether or not the conspirators had not as their ulterior.
abject, that of forcing the King, by that assassination, to
Change his Ministers. He pointed out the way in which the
evidence of the accomplices had received confirmation from
unsuspected and unsuspicious witnesses; and concluded by
calling on the Jury fearlessly to find a verdict of guilty against
the prisoner, if, in their Consciences, they believed him to be
So; if they had auy rational doubt, then to acquit.
The Jury retired at half-past 8, and at a quarter to 9 re-
turned a verdict, finding the prisoner—Guilty, upon the let
and 3d counts, of levying war on the King, to depose him.
The prisoner heard the verdict enmored, and was taken
from the Bar.
