PAPERS.
MUNICH, APRIL 8.
Accounts have been received from the Island et Ischia, near
dated the 20th of March, by which.we learn that his Ma-
jesty. tbe King of Bavaria, with his suite, had arrived in that island,
:mil sill pass some time there. His Majesty's health has already
teen much improved by the fine climate of Italy, and it is to be ex.
p.etttl that it will be completely fortified by his abode in this de.
tlyutful and salubrious spot.
STI:TTGARD, APRIL 8.
His Majesty went in state yesterday to the Assembly of the
tarts. and dosed the Session with the following Speech from the
thrtme

" Princts .117061r5, and Faithful .S'ubjerts.—
" It is a real plcasure for me to announce in person to my faith.
tul estates the closing of the resent Session. 3lay you find in
this assurance a proof of the satisfaction with which I consider its
tenths. _ _ _ _ _ _ _

" 1 Imam seen, with peculiar pleasure, the indefatigable zeal with
which the Assembly hiss exarained the general Law of the Finances,
and it. steers] Articles. My only object was, to regulate the finances
in a tat:alarm satisfactory to those who pay the taxes, as well as to the
Administration.

" I thank you for the readiness with which you have met my
;impose's relatively to the surplus of the last financial period. Edi.
ticca e f general utility—the expences of which are covered by this
surplus—will prove *.o your descendants that.you have not sacrificed
the interest of the future to that of the present.
" I am entirely satisfied with the attention you have paid to the
promotion and improvement of our national manufactures. I re-
joice in the confidence with which you have seconded my efforts
to facilitate the commercial relations of my subjects ; when internal
r•bstacles are once removed, industry will be directed to those
bvanchcs on which a free co:npetition with foreigners promises the
greatest advantage.
" The projects of law, which there has been time to discuss dur-
ing the Session, have been the objects of the most calm and impar.
tial examination. I have reserved the farther consideration of those
which have not terminated, and the presentation of some others, for
another Session, which I intend to convoke as soon as they can be
matureu An 'war Lt...tdttatluis.
" Our Constitution will be consolidated and perfected in propor-
tion as our Legislature is developed with composure and delibe-
ration. Nevertheless, its safest guarantee is in ourselves—in the
tidelity with which we maintain it_in the spirit of concord and
reciprocal confidence which guides our deliberations, in the senti-
ment of satisfaction and affections with which I now take leave of
my faithful Estates."

'The President of the first Chamber replied as follows:
" Your Mr.jesty's faithful estates think you for the gracious and
aft; ctionate tams in which you have dosed the Session ; they can-
not have a more affecting proof of your Majesty's satisfaction with
the result of the session than to hear from the mouth of their be.
loved monarch the testimony that they have performed their
duty. This recompense, with the consciousness of their in.
violable fidelity, and their devotedness to the King and the good
of their country, will inspire the Members of this Assembly
with new teal whenever your Majesty al:all think fit to convoke them
again. When love and sincere desire to do good prevail the Repre.
sentatives of the people act with the most heartfelt confidence.
Your subjects find the surest support in the paternal heart of your
Majesty, and thousands cherish with us the wish that we express at
the moment of parting.—Ood preserve King William."

THE KING.

STAR OFFICE, HALT-FAST THREE o'CLocs.
With feelings to which we shall not attempt to give
utterance, ne are compelled to state that the accounts
received this day from Windsor, are by no means so
favourable as we had yesterday most anxiously antici-
pated.—The difficulty of breathing, under which our

**loved and revered Sovereign has laboured from the
commencement of this last indisposition, has not at all
subsided; and it is said that the symptoms of his malady
n.it those indicative of water on the chest, but that
the obstruction of breathing arises from some affection of
t.!,(‘ ventricles of the heart. No Bulletin has been issued
tip to this hour.

Of all the Constitutional inununities which we possess,
there is none more dearly prized—none more highly
appreciated—none more enthusiastically eulogized—none
more jealously guarded, than the TRIAL BY JURY: and
yet we much question whether a fair and dispassionate in-
ve,tigation of the component parts of the system, and the
exercise of the important functions and discretionary
powers, thus committed to our fellow subjects, would not
lead directly to the conclusion that, as no privilege is,
from the frailty of human nature and the imperfections of
mankind, more liable to abuse--so there is no privilege
more frequently or more vexatiously abused. The great
purpose for which the TRIAL BY JURY MS instituted,was
undoubtedly to secure to every member of the community
the advantages of " that sacred principle, that every
man shall be tried by his Peers." But is the end at-
tained under the present system ? Or rather, let us
somewhat more boldly ask, is not the introduction of the
Special Jury an innovation prejudicial to, and mainly
subversive of, " the sacred principle" itself ? We con-
tend that it is so;—if not generally, at least in nine cases
out of ten. True it is, that when the parties to a suit
are on an equality in worldly consideration, in point of
fortune. of personal influence, and of local connection,
the Special Jury may with safety—nay, with great pro-
priety—be resorted to. Then it may fairly be said that a
man is " tried by a Jury of his Peers." But let us just
suppose one very possible, and even very probable, case :
Let nii suppose some wealthy, consequential, and purse-
proud, but really worthless, person, whose overweening
vanity renders him so sensitive to the breath of censure,
