This country undoubtedly has good realms to be
proud of its criminal jurirprudenee. Indeed. while
Judges ad under the public opinion, which rewards
the good and punifkes the bad ; while Jurymen feel
their importance and difcharge their duty, this dif-
tindion alone is almoll fuffiiient to elevate this
country above any other nation in the world.
The trial of Governor WALL. is a fignal inflance
of this unparalleled excellence. We give no opi-
nion on the individual, or his fate. We appeal
only to the example of the trial, as affording a
rare example of jußice, aiding firmly, temperately,
and impartially, in the invelligation of guilt or in-
nocence, after fo long an interval front the corn-
mann of the deed. It was the triumph of law.
Individual paffions and revenge had been extin.
guifbed, but the juilice of the country was awake ;
and it has been (hewn that neither the lituation of
the perfon nor the lapfe of time can efcape the
energy of our criminal jurifprudence. In this all
the nations of Europe will fee what they ought to
imitate.

The late Major WINTER, whore unfortunate
death we mentioned in yederday's Paper, when
about to give evidence at the Old Bailey in the trial
of Governor Watt, was about 5: years of age.
He had been in habits of intimacy with the Go-
vernor about 30 years ago. The Major left his
family at Woolwich in apparently good health, and
kilt as about to enter the Old Bailey, to (peak in
favour of the prifoner, he felt himfelf fuddenly
enfeebled, and requefted the arm of a Conftable
in waiting to affill him into Court, but he had
fcarcely advanced a few fteps, when he fell down,
and expired. The body, which, it was expeited,
would have been detained at the Rofe public.houfe,
Old Bailey, till the verdi/t of the Coroner's In.
quell, was removed to Woolwich in a hearfe,
yelterday morning about one o'clock. The Major
was in the Artillery, and brother.in.law to Mr.
Donnas, an eminent fhipbuilder at Deptford, and
has left a family,* tea children.
