.terference of the civil power, the t tmost c(ntft:,;„

The following extract of a letter from
dated June ee, makes mention of a very spirit:2, ;11,
to those concerned in it, likely to prove a very
able, ;achievement :

The public conversation has been engrossed
timing the present week by the singular trial which
took place -between Mrs. CcaiticE's upholsterer and
Coigne] WARDLE, of which we gave an account,—
On the evening of the trial he addressed a letter to
some newspapers, pledging himself to prosecute some
of the witnesses, whose evidence produced a verdict
against him. This letter was couched iu terms so
strong, that some Editors scrupled to expose them-
selves to the consequences. In this numbei we confess
we were.

In the mean time his enemies and.his friends have
E not faileJ to express their opinions. The former have
[ been the more violent. They assort that his popularity
' is forfeited for ever, and they go so far as to fOretel his
expu4lon from the House of Commons. The lat.
ter acknowledge that when Hercules had cleansed
the Augean Stable, he came out covered with dirt.
Those, who are of no party, confess that the motives
of his conduct are suspicious, but that his character
does not affect the real state of the late investigation.
