NOW, sivis tlie iojniaai pavty,A live at Rennes, tic spot where.'
no accuse me of injustice; it is there that the proofs
of my innocence or my guilt are to he found, and it is
there that your libel has dishonoured me, and there-
fore it is there that the matter ought to he tried. This
is so plain, that none but the libellists themselves would
think of objecting to it. A man comits assassination
with a pinto', are we to look at it fur {fie ntune of tht
umber, and try the culprit in the town where the offen-

sire weapon was made—certainly not. The perpetrator of
the crime and the instrument are identified with each other,
and wherever the blow tools effect, there ought the culprit
to be tried. I recollect a case in which this principle was
acted on in England :—Judge JonNsTos E, residing in Dub-
lin, w•;,s charged with a libel against Lord HAttnWmun, for
which an indictment was found against him in London, and
he was accordingly brought from Dublin to be tried. He
stated, as Messrs. Coau' and DUNOYER do, that he ought
to have been tried at Dublin, where be resided ; but
this was over-ruled in Court, and it was decided that a
printed libel was a missile weapon, and the locality of the
offence was where it tools effect, not where it was thrown
,from. The French Law acts upon the same, principle, and
Messrs. C. and D. having refused to obey the summons of the
Court of Rennes to appear before it, a warrant has been
issued, the execution of which upon them they exclaim
against with great violence. They are Ulu, SwiF•r's Yahoos—
they sit on the top of a tree, and, squirt their filth around on
all mankind; but if-you attempt to pull them off their seats,
the}• cry out the State is undone.

BANKRUPT LAWS' AMENDMENT BILL.

On the second reading, Mr. WKOTTESLEY -alluded to
some provisions of the Bill, when the Speaker observedi that
it was intended to let the Bill stand over to next Session, but
only now to fill up the blanks.
Mr. J. SMITH said, it was his wish to invite every species
of rem' k or criticism on the provisions of the Bill. He
was desirous it should go into • a Committee to have the
blanks filled up.
The Bill went through a Committee ; the Report was re-
ceived and read, and the Bill ordered to he printed, and to be
farther considered that day three months.
A Petition, presented by Mr. COKE, was received from
Massingham, in Norfolk, against the Poor Settlement Bill.

REFORM PETITIONS.

Sir F. BURDETT presented a petition from .Loughbo-
rough, in favour of Annual Parliaments and Universal Suf-
frage. The petitioners he stated to he chiefly old people,
the age of one being 79, of another 64, and of the youngest
54. He also presented 12 Petitions from Lancashire, 8 from
Edinburgh, 20 from Birmingham, 8 from Dundee, 60 from
Middlesex, one from London, 25 from Westminster, three
from Warwick, and 54 from Mary-le-Bone, containing the
same prayer._

Lord COCHRANE then presented 39 Petitions from Leeds,
4.3 from Bridgewater, and 39 from Portsmouth, praying for a
radical Reform, Annual Parliaments, and Universal Suffrage.
—Laid on the table.
PRIVATE BILLS.

The SPEAKER took occasion to observe, that a consider-
able deviation from the Standing Orders of the House had
taken place with regard to Private Bills. This deviation was
not, however) of modern growth, but had prevailed for seve-
ral years, and it was highly necessary to cure the evil, with a
view to the protection of property. For the Standing Order
with regard to Notices upon all Inclosure Bills ought to be
rigidly enforced, 'or property was left unprotected, while the
existence of the Order served to lull proprietors into a notion
of security. Having said so much, which his sense of duty
suggested, be trusted that some measure would be adopted at
an early period of the next Session to prevent the recurrence
of such irregularities.—(Hear, bear !)

THE TURA fRES.

DRURY-LANE.—The Honey Moon gave S6ope to
the talents of ELLISTON last night at this Theatre,
and he performed the part of the Duke iiranza
with all his former success. Mrs. DA itso'N
strongly supported him in Juliana ; and this vi-
gorous and interesting -Comedy went off with
spirited effect.
CoveiNT-GAEDEN.---Miss O'NEILL had the
Tragedy of Douglas for her benefit last night, and
she perfetrthed the part of Lady Randolph with
great feeling. C. KEMBLE resumed the pact of
fining Norval, and supported it with such judg-
ment, spit it, and effect, as made a powerful im-
pression on the audience. YOUNG'S Old Norval,
and AI'CREADY'S Glenalcon, eminently contributed
to the effect of the piece; nor should EGERTON
he overlooked in his respectable support of Lord
Randolph. ,We were sorky that the audience was
not so numerous as might be expected from the
merit and popularity of MiIS.O'isTEILL.

We received this morning the Paris Papers of
iday last. Those of Saturday, which were due,
have not arrived. A considerable, portion of
them is occupied with the proceedings at
on the trial of the persons charged with being
concerned in the assassination of M. FUALDES.
On the termination of the third day fifteen
witnesses had been examined out of upwards
of 300. Some judgment may be formed front
this circumstance of the length to which the
trial is likely to be spun out. To attempt to
give any abstract of the evidence (ern if we had
room) ,vould be vain and useless, as it consists of
R number of circumstances the character and
bearing of which vary every day according to the
diErent.explanations afforded by the witnesses.—
We insert the introductory part of the Trial in
our First Page; we shall give further, particulars

when they are of any interest, and we have space

for their i►rsertion.

111 the Chamber of Deputies on Thursday, the
Prujet rebpecting the St. Domingo Colonists was
&greed to-138 to 29.

The discussion on the Budget was then
resumed. M. CAum.oNT proposed to strike out
the allowances to the favourites of BUONAPARTE.
CASINIR PERRIFR, 41 a speech of some length,
complained of the introduction into the Budget
of the produce of the licencing of Gaining-houses,
and dwelt upon the enormous expellee arising
from the presence of the Army of Occupation..
M. LASTOURS conaph.ined of the duty on oils.
M. DELESSPNT advocated a strict adherence to
the pecuniary engagements- entered into by the
Government, and called upon the Deputies to
sacrifice all party differences upon the altar of their
country. This phrase is stated to have excited
great enthusiasm. The further discussion was
then adjourned till Friday.
The following are Extracts

Lord ERSKINE adverted to a motion he bad

dictments had been • previously found, which re-
turns had been partly made ; and also to the no-
tice he had given of his intention to bring torward
motion upon the subject. His Lordship ob-
served (as was understood), that for the purposes
of his intended motion he should consider the law
to be against him. He felt it, however, to be his
duty to bring forward some measure upon this
question to the consideration of their Lordships,
-believing it as he did to be of the•greatest im-
portance ; but he thought it right to postpone the
motion for the present, until the return to town
01 a Noble Earl (Grey), who originally introduc-
ed the question.—Adjourned till Wednesday.

acted with much lenity, and had never expended
large sums to induce to crime, that offenders
Might be brought to punishment. - - •
Sir J. MACKINTOSH, in reply, disclaimed all in-
tention of treating the Judges, or the Bank Di-
. rectors, with disrespect. He had spoken akainst
a severe administration of the law, hut of the
Judges be had meant to speak with the rev"rence
he felt. He was at a loss to conceive hoo-e any
thing that he had tittered could be so tortured as
to appear to convey a meaning in any way disre-
spectful to the Judges. He considered the highest
respect to be due to them, so long as they were
nor objects of punishment—for with Judges there
could be no medium—they must either be entitled
to veneration, or become objects of puni•hment.

BUONAPAR I E.

The following Report has been in circulation
for several days, but front the improbability of
the fact we did not consider it as worthy of -no-
tice, yet as it has been thought to -imply negli-
gence on the part of those to whose care the
great Disturber of mankind has been entrusted,
we deem it proper for insertion, in order to sub-
join the letter which justifies our 'reasons for
giving no credit to the story. A previous Report
of the circumstance has appeared in several
Newspapers :

' The sailor had been one of the crew of the Northum-
' berland man of war, which carried Buonaparte from Europe
to St. Helena, and in. that situation bad formed an ac-
quaintance with Buonaparte's servants. This sailor after-
wards became one of the crew of an East Indianian, which
being at St. Helena, the sailor, in the night, contrived
to swim from the vessel, clamber up the rocks, visit
and pass some hours gaily among Buonaparte's domes-
tics. This he did two several nights without being dis-
covered or noticed ; but in conversation on board the
ship be boasted of his adroitness, and told confidentially to
his messmates what he had done. Knowledge of the trans-
action transpired; he was arrested and examined, and con-
ducted home toEngland in confinement ; but it has not appear-
ed that he had any sinister intention or more in view than an
innocent frolic. It is not believed Buonaparte knew of his
being among his servants; however, the occurrerce is sup-
posed to have demonstrated the possibility of Buonaparte's
escape on board of any English vessel, 'the Captain of which
might be inclined for a bribe, or otherwise, to convey him to
Europe or America. Indeed, it is reported, several such oc-
currences have taken place at St. Helena, as have induced Sir
Hudson Lowe" to declare to the Government at home, that
if vessels are allowed to come to that island as at present, he
cannot answer for the security of his prisoner. It is report-
ed in the city that Major Moodie is come home to make re-
presentations on this subject, and it is so upossql another
place of refreshment will be assigned for our East Indiauten.Hl,

THE THEATRES.

KING'S THEATRE.—The Opera of La Clemenza
di Tito intrutluced a young lady last night nulled
LIONS, in the part of Servilia. She was hi no
means a first-rate Performer in any respect, but
we must allow for inexperience.

DRURY-LANE.-ELLisloN's excellent personi-
fication of Sheva in The Jew, last night, at this
Theatre, and of Young Wilding in The Liar, de-
served a more Ithaittons audience ; but what there
was heartily applauded his performance in both
characters.

enee on his benefit, last night. lie pertnrined

usual whim. Miss STEPHENS'S Cowslip was ad-
inirably simple and kite, est ing.

PLACARD.

An impudent and most offensive PLACARD,
printed in very large letters, was posted up yes-
terday in various parts of ‘Vestminster. The pur-
port of it was to abuse the Proprietor of The Morn-
ing Chronicle, whom it repeatedly mentions by
name, for having been instrumental in proposing
Sir SAMUEL Rommel' to he one of the Repre-
sentatives for that City. The Electors of West-
minster may derive an important lesson from this
impudent publication, for they will clearly per-
ceive that the FACTION, who would thrust the
most desperate Demagogues into Parliament, are
decidedly against Persons who bold a respectable
character in life, and that they only. wish to exalt
those whose principles are inimical to every form
of regular Government. 11re essentially differ with
Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY in our political and reli-
gious views, but we respect his talents, his pro-
fessional knowledge, and his general character
We wish that a Gentleman of his high attain- •
ments and rank its life could be detached from all
party connections, and that he would devote what
leisure he can spare from professional occupation
to the interests of the Empire, which no persons
could better understand, and few support with
equal ability, if be were wholly exeitipt front the
influence to which we have alluded. Sir SAMUEL
ROMILLY also may derive a useful lesson from the
desperate conduct of the Faction who have issued
the Placard in question, for it will convince him
of the danger of giving the least support to their
doctrines, since he will thereby only inflame their
passions, and stimulate their seditious pursuit's. It
is impossible to suppose that lie, or Mr.llaotio ir AM,
however violent they may have been on some
oc-
casioos, can concur in the frantic schemes of
those who t‘ish tos overtuin the Constitution, yet
they may both see the peril of appearing in
the slightest degree to patronize their doctrines,
for the - one was drivels away from Palace
Yard by the hostile yells of the factious
miscreants, and the Proprietor of The Morning
Chronicle is the subject of their audacious placard,.
for having proposed a Character of high talents'
and dignified rank in society, in opposition to the
Champions of the Rabble and the Pandars of Se-
dition. In conclusion, we trust that the Proprie-
tor of The Morning Chronicle will reflect on the
danger of giving the least countenance to such
miscreants in his Journal ; for if be is really A
ItrHIG, according to the old and true meaning of
the terns, he must be attached to the .BRITISH
CONSTITUTION, which has stood the test of ages,
and which, if not injured by the innovating
schemes of Modern Reformers, will secure the
honour and happiness of. this Country till the ter-
mination of all earthly concerns.
