From these papers it appealed that, notwidtstanding
the other crimes of which Riego might have been ac,
cused, the Regency, by their decree of the 2d of Oct
decided that he should be specially tried as a Deputy of
Cortes, for having voted, in the Strr,sOn of the 11th of
June, for the removal of the King from Seville toCadit
and for the sentence 'Of 'deposition whin famous'
ced against him, in consequence of his tefusal to go.
The leading, having terminated, the Fiscal's Act of
cusation was read, when Itiego's defender (an Advo,
cate appointed to that office, as no member of the bik
wished to undertake his defence) addressed the Cote,
and endeavoured, if not to justify his client, at least to
extenuate his political crimes. He denied the ccin:
petency of the Court, arguing that Riego should be
judged only by a military commission, notwithstanding
the Regency's decree .of the 2d of October, and tate
other decrees issued by Ferdinand hitnself since his Ras
ration, in which he recognizes and confirms that
competency. As to the principal point of the accuss,
lion, his deferr,ler argued that Riego, on the 11th of
June, bad acted under a Government de facto already
established, according to the oath which he had taken,
'and to his duty as a Deputy; the Advocate seemed in,
dined to sustain the dangerous principle of the sore,
reignty of the people. Ilis arguments excited amongst
the auditors such discontent, that IR was impossible fer
the Magistrates to restrain it. But when the Procureur
Fiscal, who spoke next, developed the picture of this
rebel's political crimes, and refuted the arguments of
his Advocate, the general indignation hitherto sap.
pressed, broke out, and the hall resounded with cries of
Death to the infamous niego—Death to the traitor

Letters from Gibraltar, dated the 27th ultiirio, have
been received. Gibraltar was crowded with Spanish

refugees, chiefly. consisting of Members of the late
Cortes, the Spanish Ministers; and other public officers,
compromised in the late transactions. Among the most
distinguished of them were NIANZANAR£B, Tows
CALATRAVA, YANDIOLA, General QUIROCA, Loin
BANOS, INFANTES, irAiDes, ARGUELLEs, GALLANO,
ORDONNEZ, MENDISARAL, General ALAVA, &c. SONIC
of them talked of leveeing it, and had perhaps departed
when the letters_ came away. A few are expected to be

allowed an asylum in Fiance. Others were making u•
rangernents to come to England—mating' them General
A LAVA and ARGUELLES, both of whom were said to have
received invitations from two very distinguished mem-
ber s of the-House of Peers. Sir R. WILSON was pre-
paring to leave Gibraltar in the packet, with General
L,s.r.Loramo, for England on the 27th, and may be
momentarily expected. Our letters come through France,
and have thus had the start of the packet. The ac-
counts which reached Gibraltar front Caaiz were highly
interesting. The inhabitants are described as greatly
irritated against FERDINAND, and large sums were
privately subscribed there and.seut to MINA. The Re-
giment San Martial', of whom seven were shot at the
Isla for defection, have expressed regret at their guilt
and folly; and all the Spanish trogps are violently
dis-
contented. At Algesiras the Royalist troops shouted
.viva la Con stitacion on the 24th, and great confusion
and alarm prevailed. Private intelligence from Galicia
positively asserts, thailloartzo has declared his lifter'.
don to oppose the re-establishment of absolute power,
anti the-this troops swore they would serve no other than
a Constitutional Government. The army of BALLAS.
TBROS isani mated by a like spirit. These accounts obtainer'
credit at Gibraltar, notwithstanding the French news,
received there, according to which MoartLo and his '
troops had implicitly submitted, and those of BALLAS.
TEROS had been disbanded. The quarter. to which the
fugitive Constitutionalists chiefly looked was Barcelona,
and their chief hope was in MINA, respecting whom
there were very contradictory rumours. One repory i
and it gained credit, was, that he had declared again/
an absolute Monarch, and, in a Proclamation, prop
to call in the Archduke cIiARIALS of Austria. It is iri,'

DEATH OF LOR,Q CHIEF BARO.t RICHARDS.
we have this day to record the death of the above
Learned Lord. The event took place at his Lordship's
residence, in Great Oimond-street, at half-past nine
o'clock this morning. ilis Lordship had been suffering
from indisposition for a considerable time, and so se-
verely was he attacked on the last Circuit, that. he was
obliged to leave the Court. The circumstance was
communicated to the LORD CHANCELLOR by a note,
this morning, and on coming into Court his trerdsllip
communicated it to the Bar.,--We understand that his
LOrtilip WAS iu his 75th year. .

LITERATURE.
!.11I'OLEON'S MEMOIRS.

We hare.already observed, that the third volume or
this valuable work possesses a deep interest. It is per.
fatly distinct from Las Casei Journal (another excel-
lent work), which is a Journal of the Conversations of
sapoleon at St. Helena with his attendants. The Me-
on the contrary, are a History of Napoleon's,
Public and Political Life, dictated and corrected by him-
gif; in the composition of which he was ince.santly
ncopied &ring the whole of his residence on the Island.
These memoirs not only give correct details of his tni-
rury career, with many curious anecdotes and estimates
public character, but they also include x review of
some of the most interesting campaigns on record. At
present we have only room for a few brief extracts,
The first rerates to Bonaparte's family.
In the fifteenth cetitui y, a younger branch of the

Bonaparte family settled in Corsica*. At the time of
the campaign of Italy, there was no one left of all the'
Italian branches, but the Abbe Gregorin Bonaparte,
Knight of SE. Stephen, and Canon of San Minima. lie
was an old man of great re,pectability and wealth. Na-
poleon,
in• his march on Leghorn, stopped at San Mi-
tiato, and was received with his whole Staff at the
house of his relation._.

Those who are well acquainted with the Italian lan.
fuage know that it is optional to write Buona or Bona.
The members of the Bonaparte family have used both''
these modes of orthography indiscriminately: of two bro.
there it has happened that one has written his name with
the ft, and the other without it. It seems that the suppres-
sion of this letter was common in very ancient times. .-
The Christian name of Napoleon has also been the
subject of much discussion. It was usual in the Orsini
sad Lomellini families, front whom it was adopted by
that of Bonaparte. The manner of writing it has been
disputed in Italy. Some pretended that it was derived
from the Greek, and signified Lion of the desert ; others
that it was derived from the Latin. The correct way
of writing it, is Napoleone. This name is not found in
the Roman Calendar. From the searches made in the
martyrologies at Rome, at the period of the Concordat,
it appears that Saint Napoleone was a Greek martyr.

Napoleon's great grandfatlrer had three sons, Joseph,
j Napoleon, and Lucien. The first of these left only one
sm, whose name was Charles ; the second left only a
daughter, named Elizabeth, who was married to the
had of the Ornano family ; the third was a Priest, and
died in 1.791, aged eighty years ; lie was Archdeacon of
the Chapter of Ajaccio. Charles, who thus became the
only heir to his father, was the father of Napoleon. He
ros educated at home and Pisa, where he took his de-
r pee of Doctor. of Laws.. •
That Bonaparte really thought of conquering Eng-
land, appears from the following instructions of Sep-
tember 8, 1815, to his Minister of Marine:
• I wished to have assembled forty or fifty ships of
oar in the-port of Martinique by combined operations
from Tisulon, Cadiz, Ferrol, and Brest, to bring them
all at mice back to Boulogne, to become, by these
means, .master of the sea for a fortnight; to have
150,000 men and 10,000 horses encamped on that coast;
three or 4,000 vessels of the flotilla in readiness, and
the moment signals should be made of the arrival of
my fleet, to land in England and possess myself of
London and the Tharnesi This plan failed of success.
But if Admiral Villeneuve, instead of entering Ferrol,
had contented himself with rallying the Spanish squa-
dron, and had -sailed for Brest to Fin Admiral Gan-.
theatme, my at my would have landed; it would have
been all overrich Eitrytind."
•• Znpf, in his Sur:nary f Uniivrml I I istqrq, (Precis de rllistire
Universetle), twentieth edition, say that a scion of the Comttena
sally , who had claims to the throt:e of Cunatantinople,. recited into
Corsica in 1-16% and that w•veral members of that family bore the,.
name of Cck•nieres, whielt is perfectly identical with that of Bona-
parte :—L,:/an awns. Cr.—(bona parte.)
It may hence Le car:chi:led that this name has baen Italianized.
We do tot balieve that this circutiriwuce was ever known of
NapoleGt..
