THE NEWSPAPER PRESS.

(From the Westminster Review.)
" We cannot close our review of the Newspaper
Press in the United Kingdom," says the article in
the Review, " without remarking upon the silly
affectation of indifference to newspaper opposition
or advocacy, which is displayed by some of the lead-
ing persons in and out of Parliament; nothing is
more common than to hear this or that great man,
with a sneer, exclaim, Oh, the newspapers say so ;'
or, ' who pays attention to the newspapers ?' and,
on the Bench, or at the Bar, persons who, but for
the newspapers, would never have risen to eminence,
appear . to aspire to a notoriety founded upon con-
tempt for the opinion. expressed in the public jour-
nals. If the indifference pretended ,to be enter-
tained by these persons were real, we should shud-
der to see it tolerated as it lately has been; for if
once the Newspaper Press could be brought into
general contempt, there would be an end of liberty,
and of the constitutional right of discussing the
merits of persons iu authority. But it is a mere
affectation—an affectation of the most 'childish and
silly description—an assumption of independence
over that power, the well-directed influence of which
a truly great and good man must acknowledge and
respect. Nothing denotes
.weakness of mind more
than this pretended indifference to praise or censure
—nothing betrays a desire of emancipation from the
salutary controul of the !Newspaper Press more than
the silly and, contemptuous defiance thrown out by
those whO profess to be above newspaper criticism.
It is same satisfaction to know that all this vapour-
ing has its origin in weakness; that whilst in public
speeches and writings the Press is defied, private
sacrifices are offered, and propitiatory mediations
are wade, to secure its support or neutrality. It is
in our power to show this in the case of the little
great men now in office or in the Legislature, but
we shall reserve our exposure for a more fitting op-
portunity. We have noticed the subject, because
it was due to the numerous body who have been
insulted by sneers of the kind alluded to, to do so,
but at present we shall go no farther." .

MISS EDGEWORTH'S WORK ON IRISH
BULLS.—A respectable farmer to the westward of the
"Modern Athens," who is an excellent judge of the
" points of beast," and who, we believe, has oftener than
once presided at the Highland Society Cattle Shows, lately
heard Miss EDGEWORTH'S book on Irish Bulls favourably
spoken of, in consequence of which he ordered a copy to
be sent him, in the expectation of receiving information
from it on his favourite subject of study. When the book
came, he commenced perusing it with avidity, and hav-
ing finished it, he said, in a tone of disappointment—
" This may be a very good book, but it says nothing of
horned cattle."—Elgin, Courier.

SORE THROATS, HOARSENESS, &e.

ACIDULATED LOZENGES of CAY-
ENNE, for be,itual Sore Throats, Hoarseness,
Relaxation of Uvula, and a refreshing stimulus during
Field Sports. These Lozenges have received a patronage
almost unprecedented in the above cases ; they are also of
great utility to persons in the habit of Public Speaking ;
and the highest testimony in the Musical World has been
advanced in their favour, where the Voice has been in-
fluerfeed by a humid Atmosphere, and diminished in tine.
On this consideration they are particularly useful to Tra-
vellers, who are unavoidably exposed to dstnp.

GUNPOWDER PLOT IN NEWGATE.

Of all the idans devised during the last twenty year,
perhaps the f.th,wing is the most singular, and had it beer
carried into effect the most sanguinary :—The plan 0,
escape alluded to, was to blast with gunpowder the w.,'
of the Press-yard, which ;thuts to the south side of New.
gate-street ; to effect which, they were to h4ake excava-
tions of the stone foundation, by getting out the mortar
and other cements which unite them, and then introduce
parcels of gunpowder—from the depots so formed, trains
were to be laid to extend to the stair-case of the upper
cells, up which the conspirators were to fly during the
explosion, and when the aperture was made to escape in
the consequent confusion.

Persons visiting Newgate, and particularly the cells of
the condemned, are very closely searched, but in order be
avoid this ordeal, the prisoners and their out-of-door
friends contrived to throw a halfpenny over the wall
before alluded to, and this was to stet as a signal, that a
parcel of gunpowder was to follow. This plan was not
only formed but acted upon, for two parcels lightly
wrapped up were thrown over before the discovery was
made. Upon investigation, it was discovered that the
young man Sandford, who is ordered to suffer to morrow,
was one of the most active in the plot, hence he has been
placed and still continues in heavy irons.
Had not the plot been providentially discovered, the
probability is, that many persona would have suffered, as
the hour when the snatch was to have been appied, wis
that when Newgate-street is most crowded with passengers ;
and, strange as it may appear, the wall is more vulnerable
there than in any other part of the prison.
London, England, 1829-12-30

WINDSOR, DEC. 29.

The KING, owing to the severe and nnfavourable state
of the weather, has not been out from the Castle since he
took up his residence there for the season, nor has his
MAJESTY hitherto entertained any company. We are happy,
however, to state that he is in the enjoyment of excellent
health.

Yesterday the Duke of CIIIIIIIrRLA ND arrived at the
Castle, and had a bag conference with his 31.taasTir, when
his Royal Highness left the Castle, on his return to his
residence at Kew. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of
Gr.oucarratt also arrived, in order to pay the compliment.
of the season, with due respect to the KING, with whom
her Royal Highness and the Duke of CUMBKALAND partook
of come refreshment.

It is expected that his MAJESTY will entertain a dis
tinguished party on New Year's Day at the Castle.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(From the Messager des Chambres.)

PARIS, SEPT. i 5.—A„, Spanish Cabinet Messen-
ger arrived to-day on his way from London to Ma-
drid, with despatches of great importance relative to
the affairs of Portugal, and the expedition to South
America.

PARIS, SEPT. M.—Second Edition.
I We are informed that Lord Palmerston arrived at
Paris yesterday; that a few minutes after his arrival
he had an interview with M. de Labourdonuaye, and
that to-day he is to have a conference with M. de
Polignac. The arrival of this statesman is not with-
out meaning at the present moment.
We are assured, upon very good authority, that
the Council of Ministers, after long and warm de-
bates has resolved on the following measures :-
Ist. That the Chamber of Deputies shall be in-
creased by 200 members.
2d. That the election of these 200 members shall
be made by the Councils General of the Departments.
3d. That these new Depnties shall make part of
the present Chamber, which therefore will not be
dissolved, if the statement is correct.

MARSEILLES, SEPT. 9.—From the last accounts
that have been received from Tripoli, it seems, that
we are likely to go to war with that State. What
is said upon the subject is not favourable to our
Consul M. Rosseau; but before we accuse him we
must be acquainted with the f►cts. What is certain
is, that the arms and the colours of France have been
taken down. There has been a meeting of the
Consuls of all the Powers on account of the affair of
M. Rosseau. A note of the proceedings was drawn
up, and sent to the respective Sovereigns. We can
hear of a letter from the Bey of Tripoli to the King
of France.

(From the Journal des Debuts.)
MADRID, SEPT. B.—A report was spread yester-
day that the King was severely wounded by an ac-
cident to his carriage. It was however only partly
true. The King and the Infanta being on the way
from St. Ildefonso to the Escurial, the fore-wheels
of the carriage came off and it fell forward; the
shock caused his Majesty to strike his head against
the window, which was broken. His Majesty was
wounded in the forehead, and lost a good deal of
blood, but notwithstanding continued his journey to
the Escurial, where he was received with testimo-
nies of the lively interest every body took in the
danger which he had run. His Majesty's health
has not been affected : he continues his usual oc-
cupations.

Already the Carlo-Apostolics triumphed—accord-
ing to them the King could not recover, and his
marriage became impossible.
The shares of the Bank of St. Charles have again
risen—they are at 177; piastres buyers. In 1823
they were at 5 piastres, and nothing doing in them.
(None cf the French Papers have any news from
the theatre of war.)

The-CHAIRmAN thought the hour of five would
be late enough for keeping the office open.
Mr. Scrj. PELL considered that as it was admitted
a wholesale traffic was going on in these tickets, they
had better direct the treasurer to pay the money to
no other person than the one in whose favour the
order was given.
The CHAIRMAN said that would be impossible, as
the orders were made payalde to bearer on sight.
A desultory conversation ensued, in the course of
which Sir R. Baker, the county treasurer, arrived.
The CHAIRMAN immediately informed him of the
nature of the discussion, and of its being the opinion
of many gemlemen, that it would be a convenience
to the witnesses obliged to attend the Old Bailey, if
his office were kept open during the session till five
o'clock in the evening.
Sir R. BAKER—I have no objection if the Court
thinks it would be convenient, but I don't think
myself it would prove so.
CHAIRMAN—A paragraph has appeared in the
newspapers, stating that persons are making a liveli-
hood by buying the orders issued to witnesses.
Sir R. BAKER—I know there are persons at the
Old Bailey, who advance money on these orders, but
what they give for them I don't know. I think the
practice a convenience to persons living in the coun-
try, as it enables them to return by the evening
coach, and thus avoid the expense of an additional
night's residence in town. It was well worth a
person's while in such a case to pay Is. in the pound.
Mr. FLOWER-But the newspapers say they charge
one half for the accommodation.

Sir R. BAKER—Oh, I know nothing of that.
It was finally understood the wish of the Court
was to be compled with.

General TRoRNTON begged to call the attention
of the Court to another abuse,—namely, the diffi-
culty which witnesses experienced to get access to
the Grand Jury-room. Females were pushed about
by the crowd in a most scandalous manner; and a
gentleman who had been obliged to prosecute in
consequence of having his pocket picked, bad de-
clared to him, that sooner than attend to prosecute,
and be hustled about again in the manner he then
was, he would forfeit his recogr►izances. Public
justice was impeded by these difficulties, and it was
the duty of the Court to interfere.
Mr. ORME believed the committee, who were
then sitting on the motion of Sir P. Laurie for faci-
litating the criminal business of the county, intended
to suggest a remedy for the evil complained of. He
believed it would be proposed to the Court to divide
and classify the business the Grand Jury had to get
through, and to allot a certain quantity for each day.
On the motion of Mr. Serjeant PELL, seconded.
by Sir R. BIRNIE, it was resolved that the high
constable do attend every day of the Court's Sitting,

VERA. CRUZ.*
Yesterday the Eliza brig, of the United States.
from Philadelphia, anchored in this port, and
in an official paper, given by a person in
office to one of the authorities of this city, is the
followingpassag,e:—" The Captain of the Eliza states
that off Cayo Hueso he met an English schooner,
called the skip jack, on the 26th June, by which
he was informed that there was preparing-
at the
Havannah an expedition destined for Vera Cruz,
with twelve transports, two ships of the line, three
frigates, (without stating the number of the troops)
and he thought that at that time they would be at
sea. Is there then any one who can sincerely doubt
of the reality of our being soon invaded ? We
take it for granted that this circumstance has
been immediately communicated to the Supreme
Government, and to the Governor and Command-
ant-General of the State, that they may hasten their
measures ; it is necessary that the troops from Ja-
laps should come down immediately, and that Gene-
ral Santa Anna, leaving other affairs, should instantly
come to this place. The moments pass on, and in
war activity is the most necessary. Up to to-day

we may say that we were abandoned to our fate,
notwithstanding some measures have been taken to
prepare for our defence, but these are not sufficient.

VERA CRUZ, JULY 11.
Yesterday evening a vessel arrived here in 14
days from Cayo Hues° : it is an American, in bal-
last, and it is not known why it comes, since it haw
brought no letters. The Captain has made a decla-
ration conformable to all the preceding information,
adding that the expedition does not consist of 5,000
men, blit'of 15,000. My friend, the affair is more
serious than some persons believe; troops have ar-
rived in Spain, levies made in haste by Morales in
the Canary Islands; a ship of the line and two
frigates, besides the squadron from the Havannab.
All the Spaniards expelled from this country, except
those in Great. Britain, come as volunteers, and all
will leave their bones here; but union and valour,
and nothing more, are indispensable, for with these
we shall falsify the joyful hopes of the tyrant Ferdi-
nand and his adherents. Undeceive yourself : they
are coming to Mexico, and we may believe they
6ve been on the way since the Ist inst. The only
thing doubtful is the place of landing, probably here
or at Boguilla de Piedra. I think here, because I
have noticed the eagerness to make it believed that
no expedition was intended ; an eagerness shown
by many of the merchants here who had letters, and
also because our defenceless situation was well
known at tile Havannah, for even now we are not in
a proper state of defence. What a shame !

GUILDHALL

Yesterday Mr. Lord, a wool-broker, applied to
Mr. Alderman FAREBROTHER for a summons against
Mr. Deputy Hughes, of Basinghall-street, for an
assault.

The complainant stated, that as he was standing
in Basinghall-street that morning, the Deputy came
up to him, and shaking his fist at him, threatened to
break every bone in his body. Complainant was
conversing with a Mr. Ferry, who immediately in-
terposed, and Mr. Hughes went away, .saying,
" The moment I hear of you again, I will follow
you." Complainant now only wished the Deputy
to be bound not to commit such violence as he had
done, and threatened to do. .

Mr. Hughes (who is in the cloth trade) said he
had received great provocation. Since the vast ca-
lamity which had befallen the woollen trade, the
complainant had been walking about his neighbour-
hood daily, from morning to night, speaking ill of
him ; and he had therefore given him notice that
Morning, that if he did not leave off vilifying him
he should chastise him. The complainant had, he
believed, taken offence at a friend of his (the De-
puty) buying some wool through another broker,
but that friend had not been controulled by him.
Complainant had been saying for three weeks past
that he would be revenged.

Mr. Alderman FAREBROTIIER thought he had a
right to bind each of them over, as each had threat-
ened the other, but for mere words he should only
require personal recognizances
.to keep the peace,
and that would amount to nothing. He again ad-
vised them to allow their friends to settle their
differences.

Mr. Lord said the Deputy's friends had offered to
apologize for him, but he was determined to bring
an action for the assault, and wished the Deputy to
be bound to keep the peace in the interim.

. -
Mr. Alderman FAREBROTIIER replied, that if he
was determined to bring the action, it would be im-
proper to grant his application. He would not pre-
judice Mr. Hughes's case by leaving the jury to
suppose that he, having thoroughly investigated the
business, had formed an opinion on Mr. Hughes's
conduct, and had held him to bail.. Complainant
would take care to let the jury know what the Ma-
gistrate had done. He therefore dismissed the case.

taxation from compulsory labour, and open to be
devoted to religious duties and to moral instruc-
tion.

I am aware, however, that whilst provision is
made for securing to the 'slaw sufficient time
and opportunity for religious instruction, and
every latitude is allowTtl with respect to `t.17.1e
mode of his instcnctinn which th,it 'f,..pitit of
toleration demands, it is very tit, notwithstand-
ing, that certain local 4,ogulations should be
established, to guard. against those abuses and
that misapplication, to which the best institu-
tions arc liable ; and to obviate those disorders
which might be occasioned, or the apprehension
,of whith might at least be occasionally enter-
tained, if an unrestricted liberty were permitted,
to assemble considerable bodies of the slave
population, at unseasonable bouts, or without
the previous consent of their og.t-ners.
The next object which I am desirous strongly
to recommend to the favourable consideration of
the colonial legislatures, is the admission of the
evidence of slaves.

This may appear to some of tlhe zolonies to
be still too great a step to be at Once taken, but
the concession already Fareje upon this point by
others of the colonial legislatures, induces ine to
hope that the principle is gradually gainity,
ground in the West Indies, and that it will, ere
long, be generally felt that the ele.:-ating a slave
to the rank of a person whose evidence is ad-
mitted, under the same restrictions only under
which that of free men is received, and by teach-
ing him and his fellow-subjects that the avenues
of justice are not closed against his testimony in
any case whatsoever, an important improvement
will be effected, as well in the character of the
slaves themselves, as in the general feeling and
conduct of the population at large.
The only other point which I shall advert to,
is the situation of that portion of ;society in the
colonies which comes under the general denomi-
nation of people of colour.
It appears to me that it would be wise to act
with much liberality towards this class of indivi-
duals; and I am to direct, therefore, that your
Excellency will strongly recommend their in.
terests to the favourable consideration of the
local legislatures.
