The Marqniq of AYLESBURY has just returned from a
tour through Italy, and brought with him, besides
much valuable info:a-nation,
_respecting the Opera in
general, The Score of the Crusaders in Egypt, an
Opera, by NI AY ERBACII, Bow performi rig at nearly all the

A new hall, or guard-room, has been erected in front

CATHOLIC RENT IN' LONDON.— Last evening, at
seven o'clock, the Fourth Meeting of this Association
wok place at the Roman Catholic School, in Dean-
street, Soho, o hich was more numerously attended than
on the two last occasions. Mr. STANFIELD was
called to the Chair, and announced the sum of 141.05. 7d.-
as the amount of the collections for last week, 9.1.125. 6d.
of which was received at the doors. Upon this an-
s:ouncement a tremendous shout of applause followed.
The Meeting adjourned at half-past nine o'clock.
We have heard, and are dispo-ed to believe that Mi-
nisters will,at an early day,propose some legislative mea-
sure for crushing the Catholic Rent in Ireland. This
is a grave question, and we are not prepared to say
that such a resolution
.of the King's Government ought
to be decidedly censured.' The embarrassment in this,
as in all such cases, will be how to confine the remedy
to the specific disease-116w to put down rent, without
affecting other voluntary and innocent or beneficent
contributions. We long ago forewarned these asso-;
ciators, that one of the first fruits of their violence
would be to suggest, and even in some minds to justify
a fresh encroachment on the rights and liberties of the
nation.—Tinfer. •

DRURY •LANIE TllEATRE.—Saturday, after the Opera
of The Fall of Algiers, which was well received, Mr.
Boman announced A Nevi Way to Pay Old Debts for
to-night. Although the name of KEAN was not men-
tioned, some indiscreet persons raised a shout and ap-
plauded, but they were answered by strong and general
expressions of disapprobation. The house was full.
The Etude of Saturday, in noticing the disturbance
in consequence of KEAN'B affair at Drury-Lane Theatre,
makes one of those comical additions to the story in
which it invariably indulges when any occurrences in
England are to be related. " The confusion," sayl the
Erode, " spread even to the boxes; many persons in
the pit, in allusion to certain passages of the letters
read at the trial, called out Link Breeches (culottes
orates). This word having been always considered
by the Ladies as an unpardonable insult to them, many
Went out indignant, covering their jitces wills their hand-
kerchiefs!" This is capital, when it was expressly
stated in the London Papers that scarcely any women
were present; and that of the few who were present,
the majority.shewed their real character by supporting
KLAN. Some of them indeed, it was mentioned, waved
their handkerchiefs ! This is probably what the Etoile
translates covered their faces !
The Dublin Morning Register says:—" Ilea tumult
at the Ballina Theatre on Tuesday evening, the gallery
c.aine dawn, without, however, any loss of life or limb.
The affray arose from a proposal of " three cheers for
the brave O'CONNELL 1"

TO ellE EDITOR OP THE STAR.

•
Mtt..Eotroti-the very many interesting paragraphs
which have lately appeared in your valuable Journal,
in favour of the proposed Ship Canal from the English
to the Bristol Channel, convinces me you are a warm
and zealous advocate for carrying this magnificent and
praiseworthy undertaking into effect. Under this im-
pression, I have been induced by many of my brother
Landowners on the line, to inform you (which informa-
tion I received from a source to be depended on for its
accuracy), that, in spite of the hasty and fallacious mis-
representations contained in the Resolutions passed at
the late Meeting of Axminster, and which have been
inserted in all the Provincial Newspapers in the West
of England, and also in many of the London Journals,
have not in any manner altered the opinion of the great
majority of Landowners, as to the efficacy and practi-
cability of the measure, as it appears that eight out of
ten Landowners on the line have already- consented to
the proposed Canal passing through their respective
land, and amongst them are included most of the
wealthiest Proprietors ih the three counties of Devon,
Dorset, and Somerset. This, I trust, will at once strike
a deadly blow at the paltry and ill-timed Resolutions
alluded to above: and I beg further to inform you,
that many of the Landowners and Inhabitants of the
different towns and parishes, situated on the intended
line, have expressed a wish that they may be permitted
to petition Parliament (and particularly the town of
Axminster), praying for an Act to,carry so noble a
measure into effect, for preservation from shipwreck,
aad the consequent miseries attendant thereon, as well as
that °finer easing the commercial iaterest of the country.
By giving these feeble hints a place in your valuable
columns, you will much oblige a constant reader, and
Bridport, January 29, 1825. LANDOWNER.

The Lisbon Papers contain a Decree for the Regula-
tion of the Book Trade, directing that a copy of every
book printed, whatever shall be its subject or size, shall
be delivered, by the Printer, to the Royal Library, on
pain of a 'fine equal to the value of 20 copies of the
book so neglected to be sent ; including, particularly,
a Periodical called, " 0 Padre ilmaro, which had
been exempted ; but which exemption has been with-
drawn on account of its publishing inflammatory articles
calculated to produce anarchy.
REMARKABLE DISCOVERY IN GREENLAND.—I have
just received from Copenhagen (says a correspondent
in the News of Literature), a very interesting piece of
information, which 1 immediately communicate to the
lover of antiquarian researches. One of those stones
called Runic Stones, has been.found in Greenland, and
brought to Copenhagen. This is an indisputable proof
that Icelanders or Norwegians visited that country in
very early times.
A subscription is opened at the several Banks in l
Southampton town, for the purpose of re-opening and
amending the beautiful promenade on the Beach. It
is to be hoped that the contributions will be sulficient
to,enable the Magistrates to effect this desirable im-
provement, as it will add greatly to the appearance
and attraction of that part of the town.—Berkshire
Chronicle.

Batatsic Wivas.—At Chatteris, in Huntingdonshire,
a custom exists, and has done from time immemorial,
of punishing those unhappy wights who may have been
guilty of ill-treating their wives, by a rude represen-
tation of the event. As a note of preptration, chaff is
strewed on the Saturday night, before the doors of the
inhabitants for whom they intend to ride on the follow-
ing Monday : when a man, with his face blacked,
riding backwards upon an ass, bawls through the vil-
lage, " I ride, I ride, for --- ami his bride ;" at the
same time scattering chaff, saying, " Here is a good
sample." Five or six others, dressed up to resemble the
unhappy couple and their friends, then commence the
dialogue, and conclude with the fight. Two of these
representations took place a fe w weeks ago, and two or
three others paid a fine to the riders of from five to
twenty shillings, according to their circumstances.—
Many attempts have been made to stop the represen-
tations ; but as they are always encouraged by a plen-
tiful shower of silver and copper from the respectable
inhabitants, such attempts have been ineffectual.

BLAISL—The septennial ceremony, in ho-
nour of this patron saint of the wool-combers, and sup=
posed inventor of their art, will be held at Bradford on
Thursday next. Preparations ate making, by the mas-
ters and men, and almost by the whole population of
the neighbourhood, to render this commemoration more
splendid than any preceding one. Indeed, Bradford
owes so much to the worsted manufacture, and has in-
creased so largely within the last seven years in popu-
lation, trade, and wealth, that the approaching ceremony
might naturally be expected to be more shewy and more
numerously attended than that of any former period.—
The town is expected to be crowded to overflowing on
the appointed day.

Thomas Ridler was found guilty, at the Bristol Octo-
ber Sessions, of stealing a pocket-book from Captain
MELHUISSI, of Taunton, when on board a steam-packet.
The sentence was three years' imprisonment. A repre-
sentation of all the circumstances having been, made in
the proper quarter, his MAJESTY has been pleased to
order a remission of the sentence, and on Thursday last
Ridler was discharged from the custody of the gaoler.
The petition to the King in favour of the young man,
signed by all the Jury, acknowledges that, during four
hours' deliberation, nine of them " continued of opinion
that there were such doubts attending the case of the
prosecutor as to entitle the prisoner to his acquittal;
but that, seeing the determined views which had been
taken by three others of the Jury of his guilt, and find-
ing Omit would be utterly impossible to induce them
(the minority of three) to adopt the opinion of the peti-
tioners, the dissentients (the aforesaid majority ef nine)
at length concurred in adopting the opinion of guilt
against the prisoner, and returned their verdict ae-
co, ding! y."

Monday; an Inquest was held at the Arden Arms, in Bredbury,
on the body of Nancy Burgess (the daughter of a labouring man),
about a year and a half old, who was scalded to death. It appeared
that the mother of the deceased was lying-in in the room where
the accident happened, and the woman who was in attendance on her
had just left die kettle full of boiling water on the fender, when the
deceased, who was playing near the fire, pulled the kettle down, and
was scalded so dreadfully, that she died almost Immediately.

COURT OF•CHANCFRY, JANUARY
• BARI= V. BA BLEB.
This was an auplicatioh for a commission delunaticd
inguirendo, sought for bt the husband against his wife.
Affidavits had been filed on both sides; those in support
of the commission were strong and decisive, declaring.
that ever since the marliage, Mrs. Bailee has felt a
rooted detestation for her husband, and many of her
kindest . friends, owing to the unfortunate aberrations
of her mind.

The affidavits against the commission deny that any
such aberrations exist, and state that Mr. Batlee had
treated his wife with the greatest cruelty.
Mr. SHADWELL and Mr. WittristaßSH were heard f. sr
the motion, and further hearing-was postponed.
COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JANUARY 29.
THE KING V. TIMOTHY POWELL.
The Court heard the further arguments of Counsel
against the rule Nisi fora new trial. obtained by the
Attorney-Genetal. _

Mr. GURNEY and Mr. BRODRICK argued that the
points upon which the defendant had been found guilty
of pei jury, were points the most essential to the for
ma-
tion of the judgment of the LorJ Chancellor ; and that
it had been laid down by Lord Raymond, that a ver-
dict should be supported, if upon the trial any one ma-
terial part of the indictmeet or assignment of perjury
had been established.
The Court, after consulting upon the subject, an
nounced, that they would read the bills and answers
filed in .Chancery, before they heard the Attorney• G-
eneral and the other Counsel in support of the rule.
COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JANUARY 29.
THOMAS V. RAW.

Mr. Serjeant TADDY mooed for a rule to shew cause
why the plaintiff's attorney should not pay the costs of
taxing his bill in this case. • The Learned Serjeant
stated, that when the action was first commenced, the'
defendant applied to stay all further proceedings on the
payment of debt and costs. The bill of the plaintiff's
attorney was then brought before the Prothonotary -for
taxation—it amounted to £5 Os. 6d. but on the taxation
by that Officer, the bill was reduced by striking off the
sum of £1 Under these circumstances, the defend-
ant contended that by the terms of the statute 2 Geo.
H. c. 23, the plaintiff's attorney was liable to the pay;
ment of the costs of taxation, as more than one-sixth of
his bill had been struck off.
The Court, however, held that that statute was not
intended to apply to any case but those in which the
bill thus reduced had been delivered by the attorney to
his own client, and not to those where the bill was de-
livered to the opposite party. It would be manifestly
unjust to put any other construction upon the statute;.
for though the Officer might have struck off more than
one-sixth, considering that the defendant was not liable
to pay so much, still he had not by that determined that
the items so struck off ought not to have been intro-
duced at all. It was well known always to be the case
that there were many charges to which a party was
properly liable to his own attorney, but which never
could be recovered from the adverse party ; and such
might have been the case with respect to the items re-
duced by the Officer in this taxation.
The motion was accordingly refu,ed.
COURT OF ICING'S BENCH, DUBLIN, JAN. 27.

TRIAL OF BM JOHNSON -AND MR. DAY•

The Court met at ten o'clock, when Mr. SOLICITOR.
GENERAL was heard in reply to the observations of Mr.
NORTH and Mr. O'CoNtiatt. • he addressed the Jury
particularly as to the case of Mr. Haydn, who, he con-
tended, was from the first permanently interested in the
proprietorship of the Dublin Morning Star, and conse-
quently liable.
The CHIEF Justice then charged the Jury at con-
siderable length; after summing up the evidence, his
Lordship thus expressed-his sentiments as to the publi-'
cation, and the law of libel. The next consideration,
said his Lordship, it, whether the particular libel is a
fair exercise of the liberty of the press ? and it is my
duty to tell you, that if you believe it to be a fair exer-
cise of this privilege, that it is not a libel. But, Gen-
tlemen, the liberty f the press is interwoven with the
liberty of the subject ; and if, in the exercise of the
one the other shall be invaded, you are bound, as
guardians of both, to redress the aggrieved. You
will therefore, conclude, Gentlemen, that it is not a
fair exercise of- the liberty of that press to defame
our fellow-citizens. The present publication .is of
that class of libels which defames men holding public
situations. Gentlemen, by the state of the law of
this country, no man possesses the right of defam-
ing the Character of another man, any more than he
possesses the right of defaming private individuals.
As to what is or is not libel, is altogether matter within
your province. Doubts were formerly entertained on
this subject, but these doubts have been long since set-
tled ; but the same Statute which confers on you the pri-
vilege, imposes on me the duty to state, from the Bench,
my opinion—Gentlemen, you need not attend at all, if
you should think fir, and you are quite at libel ty to
differ from the Court, as to whether the present publica-
tion is a libel or not. It it my opinion, Gentlemen, that
every man that pleases has a right to express his opi-
nion of the principles in which the country is governed,
and of the public men who manage that government.
Every man has a right to say that these principles are
unconstitutional—that this conduct is unwise—that the
system is erroneous—that these measures ate dangerous
—but, Gentlemen, under the pretence of saying this, he
is not to impugn the conduct of public men as corrupt
and bad, or to attribute that conduct to iniquitous
motives ; above all, is not any man in the exercise of this
censorial power, as it is called, to assail private charactr.
It is right to apprize you, that the present publication
does not contain express and direct defamation, but
irony and sarcasm; but a libel may be committed by
allegory, under the pretence of drawing an imaginary
character, or by. caiicature. Whether the libel in
question (for it is an opinion that it is such) con-1
tains imputations on the Marquis Wellesley, it
is for you to decide ; but you will interpret it accord-
ing to the general sense and significance at words, and
give it an interpretation suggested by common sense
aid ordinary understanding. This is the way in which
to at rive at a true construction. You will look at the
passage in which Lord Wellesley is conipaied to
Tiberius ; and it is that in which he is said to be coin-
pared to Lord Wharton. You will consider whether
this is fair and bona fide matter of history, or whe-
ther it is introduced for the purpose of contrasting
Lord Wellesley with Lord Wharton, as being the oppo-
site of that Nobleman, or whether it is introduced as a
conjectural contrast, conveying a real and palpable
application. In the former event, you will pro-

- .
'Wade it not to be a jibel, tat if ton fitditliii
to it the meaning, then-you afe. bound to ornisil
the latter character ts ironical and libelions. Shoo!
there be any difficulty in your corning to a verdict,
there are sit other newspapers which, as far as relates
to the same subject, you will consider as antiliary id
directing an interpretation, and vrhich have been ten-
derd in evidence for your consideration. In one of those
newspapers, that published on the 3d of. January, yod
will find it stated in direct terms, that Lord Wharton
remitted his salary to England, for the purpose of re-
pairing his shattered fortune, add won will consider
whether is is insinuated that Lord Wellesley did the
same? If you determine that the publication be a libel,
you are to say who is guilty of publishing it ; if both
defendants, you will find accordingly; and if only one,
your verdict, of course, will relate but to that individual.
The Jury retired at a quarter before two o'clock.
Two bailiff% were then sworn " to keep them from all
manner of easement (fire and candlelight excepted),
&c. &c. until they should agree.
Mr. 0 CONNELL, on the retirement of tile Jury, ob-
served, that the Judge in his charge, had put it to the
Jury, that the libel charged contained a comparisrn of
Lord Wellesley with Tiberius, though it was not speci-
fied by a distinct inuendo is the pleadings in that sense.
The Court reserved the objection for consideration,
in case of a verdict against the defendants.
At three o'clock the Jury knocked, and- the Bailiffs
opened the door. Mr. Kinahan, the Foreman, came into
the Jury box, and said they had a communication to
make to the Chief Justice.
Cuter Jusysc:a—Let the Jury be all called out. '
The Jury took their places.
Foreman—My Lord, we are not likely to agree, thefe Is not aill
prospect whatever of our agreeing. To which others of the Jury
nodded assent.
Come Jusvicr—The Jury had better retire for the present.
The Jury retired, and the door was again loCked.
CM, Jusvica—Are Counsel on both sides in Court ?
Mr. Kesesuo—My Lord, the Attorney-General has left the
Court, but he has been sent for.—At half-past four a messengel ar4
rived from the Attorney-General.
Mr. Serjeant Lentos', on the part of the Attorney-General,
consented to the discharge of the Jury.
Mr. Ifor.wittr. WAt.ser' on the part of the traverser', consented.
The Jury were called down. After entering from the Jury
Room, they declared they had not agreed, nor was there any like-
lihood of their doing so.
The C.uer James—Mere is, I understand, a consent on the
part of the Crown, and of each of the defendants, that the Jury
'nay be discharged, and they are discharged accordingly.—The
Court then adjourned.

A man oft the name of O'Neal, was tried at the
Salford Sessions on Thursday, for an assault on Ellen
Jefferson, a cotton spinner, in the factory of Messrs.
LATHAM and Co. at a time when the workers
usually employed there had. turned out. The
facts of the case are shortly these :—Ellen Jeffer-
son was employed in the factory of Messrs. Latham
and Co. at a time when the workers usually employed
thet e had turned out. She was afterwards threatened by
O'Neal, who said, if she remained he would kill her.
On the 23J of November, about eight o'clock, as she
was going home from work, accompanied by her
daughter, she was followed by several men, one of whom
said ,s we'll do for thee," and struck her a violent blow
on the forehead with a stone, and another struck her on
the back of the head, when she fell on the ground sense.
less. Her cries brought to her assistance Mr. Latham,
jun. who found her much hurt and bleeding profusely.
She was unable to give an account of the transaction
that night, but next morning she gave such a descrip-
tion of the person who struck her first, as led to the
detention of O'Neal, whom she identified.
The prisoner was found guilty, and sentenced to three
years' imprisonment in Lancaster gaol.
The Chairman; in passing sentence on the prisoner,
animadverted in the strongest terms on his conduct,
which he characterised as savagely brutal, and said
that the horrid assault was of ^a nature whichjeldom
disgraced this country.
Sunday se might, as Mr. Usher, the clown, was travel-
ling from Sheffield to Chester, he stopped at the turnpike
at Chapel•en-le-Frith, to pay the customary toll for his
carriage, but was surprised, on feeling for his purse, to
find it had disappeared ; and while conversing with the
Landlady of the toll-bar on his loss, he was released
from his unpleasant predicament, by the appearance of
his faithful dog, with the identical purse in his. mouth,
which he had picked up, and carried from the pub-
lic-house where Mr. Usher last stopped, a distance of
six miles.

CORN EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE. JAN. st.

Last week there were again considerable arrivals of all sorts of
Grain, and a large return of Flour. The fresh supplies of this
morning consist, of fair quantities of Wheat, Barley, and Beans,
from Essex and Kent, but net much from Suffolk. There are also
-several more ships arrived from northern ports, with Oats. Prime
Wheat sells freely, and fully supports the terms of this day se'nnight ;
but other sorts are dull. There is scarcely any trade for Barley, as
the probability increases of the ports opening for this article. Beans
and Peas find buyers with tolerable freedom, at the terms of this
day se'nuight. Good quantities of Oats, both English and Irish,
are still exhibited for sale, and this Grain ha? met a slow sale to-
day, on the same terms as last Monday. The Flour trade continues
very dull at the late reduction.
