rrOWERS'S TONIC PILLS, for Weakness of the
.L Stomach, Indigestion Costiveness, Bilious Irregularities,
Ike. are earnestly recommended In all those cases (and they are very
numerous) where, the stem& beiof already weak, and the di-
gestive powers deranged, stodge purgatives arc highly prejudicial,
and productive of serious Injury to the constitution. These Pills, ,
in their operation, are peculiarly mild, safe, and effectual : as a
gentle aperient tonic, they cleanse and yet strengthen the sto-
mach, restore the appetite, promote digestion, and keep, the
bowels in a regular and comfortable state--free from costiveness,
but by no means too relaxed. .
The Tonic. Pills are sold at 2s. 4s. 6d. 11s. and eSs. per
box, by the venders of genuine Medicines, wholesale and retail,
in England, Scotbind, and Ireland.

HALL'S PATENT STARCH, for getting up
Lace, Muslin, Linen, &c. of a beautiful colour, and pre-
venting their turning yellow. This new and superior Article
forms a striking contrast, on comparison with every other kind
of &arch, by its brilliant whiteness; and, when prepared for
use according to the directions, is considerably stronger, and
consequently more economical. Its greatest excellency consists
in being very fluid and transparent (notwithstanding its superior
strength), resembling a thin solution of fine Gum Arabic : thus
divested of the thick and pasty quality of common Starch. It is
worthy of remark, that the latter is so defective in colour, &c.
that the manufacturer usually adds a portion of blue to it, in
cadet to disguise such impurities; but this expedient is not
piked with the patent article.

THE BONAPARTE „FAMILY IN AMERICA.

INITIQRS OF A RECENT TRAVELLER.

In the course of my travels in "the United States, I
arrived at the town of Nashville. There was a crowd
of. people collected at the entrance, where a large
!waggon was upset, and several of the passengers se-
,yerely injured. They were :extricated from the
-vehicle, and placed in an empty barn•or shed by, the
road .side. _ A isig_Arev.e.htiakly up, .from,-..eshich.- au
-eleiiiiillaTessed man alighted, leaving a lady hold-
,issg the reins. He pressed through the crowd', and
inquired very anxiously altar those that were hurt.
,One of them, a lady, had Tracked a severe contu-
sion on ,the forehead, mid has insensible.. The
stranger immediately bound-up her arm with.his.silk
poikef-handkerchief, and talcs:Fig ..e llincetlfrotis

was by his direction lifted into 43e. the.

geon's hands, desired him. to furnish her
.with every
necessary her situation required: he then axiom('
his gig and drove away.--:." play, Sir," said Ito the
landlord, " who is that gentlenian?"•-•.." You-are: a
stranger, I guess," was the reply, staring me rudely
in the face. I did not choose to satisfy his inrperti- •
nent curiosity, and turning away, addressed myself .
to a tall. genteel-looking man, whom I afterwards
found to be Commodore-Hull, of the American navy.
He politely told me that it was ".111r.Joseph Bona-
parte. He has a hunk about two miles. from this, •
where he often resides, for the-sake of hunting and
shooting. The-lady in the carriage with him is his
lady. He is a very benevolent man, and does more
good in these parts than all the gentry put together."
L thanked him for his information, .and feeling my
curiosity aroused, I requested the Commodore to join
me in a bottle of wine, with which he complied, and
we sat .down in the public room, where 1 gathered
from -him that the Ex-king of Spain; Joseph Bona-
parte, has built'a town, called Joseph's-towel, which
has already 3000 inhabitants, chiefly French,. who
work in manufactories of cotton and wool. Helms
expended more than £lOO,OOO on this hobby-horse.
The country round for several Indes is his property
by purchase, and he is a little king over the place.
The Commodore had never been there; so only re-
' ported this from hearsay. In his house near
" Mr. Joseph Bonaparte" lives the life of a plitisi
country gentleman.

EXAMINATION UNDIEL Till KING'S COMMISSION.
TOURTII DAT, THUILSDAY, TIMILUAST 13.
The Jury assembled at Freemasons' Hall at ten
o'clock this morning, and 'the Court immediately
proceeded to business
Joseph Head—Examination resumed by Mr. WE-.
TIIERELL).—When Lord Portsmouth went out on
the Monday morning, he did not give witness any
directions about clothes; believes he did not pack any
up himself; does not think he had put on a clean
shirt ; said he was going to breakfast at Mr. Han-
son's, in 13loomsiviry-square ; at this time General
Norton and Mr. Fletcher Norton were in the house
in Lincoln's Inn-fields ; there were no preparations
for the marriage going forward in Lord Portsmouth's
house. At about twelve on the same day, Mr.. Ne-
wton Hanson brought witness a note in Lord Ports.:
mouth's hand-writing ; did not preserve the note;
believes it is lost; the purport of it was, that witness,
was to take clean clothes the next day (Tuesday) to
Bloomsbury-square; took the clothes accordingly;
Lord Portsmouth then told witness he had been to
Salt-hill ; none or the servants went with Urn ; did
riot leave the house between the time Lot torts-
mouth ss ent out and the arrival of the note ; did
not know he went out to be married; did not go
the next day to St. George's, Bloomsbury-square; it,
was about six o'clock in the evening when he went to
Mr. Hanson's ; Lord Portsmouth blgan the conversa-
tion ; he said lie thought he had nicked us all by his
getting married ; don't recollect that he said to whom
he was married ; remained with him till he was
dressed ; his Lordship's carriage was not out on the
Monday ; no orders were given about it by Lord
Portsmouth ; his Lordship said to witness on the
Tuesday, that when he returned from Salt-hill he
was married ; that he did not think of being married
when he left home on Monday morning ; did not
shave when he went out on the Monday ; slept at
Mr. Hanson 's on Tuesday, where he continued Wed-
nesday and Thursday ; returned with Lord Ports-
mouth when he went into Hampshire ; frequently
while there, he told witness that Lady Portsmouth
ill-treated him, by horsewhipping and threatening
him; said the late Lady Portsmouth had behaved
very kindly to him; in the late Lady Portsmouth's
life-time witness often went out with Lord Ports-
mouth 'in his phaeton, both in town and country;
they frequently passed a funeral, when his Lordship
would sometimes hit at the coachmen driving the,
tuourning-coaches or hearse, and would call them
Anthony and Joe ; he often ordered his phaeton to,
fellow In the proceision, and when it artived at the
burial-ground, he generally accompanied the corpse
into the church and to the ground ; witness was !re-.
quently at the church at Hurtsbourne when the bells;
Were being rung, and his Lordship always rung one
this was very often ; sometimes his Lordship woulcE
log the ringers with the rope; witness once divided
a sum of money among the ringers, which the Clerki
brought him, his Lordship's share was fifteen-pence
which he took : don't recollect his Lordship poying4,
but he often received his share; once he said to did
ringers, he hoped that their hands were sore s when(
people were ill, Lord Portsmouth would very fre4
quently inquire how they were, and orders always
were given to the Clerk to let him know when they
died, that his Lordship might toll the- church bell—
knows that his Lordship frequently left the house,
When so informed, for the purpose of ringing the
bell ; the Clerk used to tome to the house for his
Lordship, who accompanied him back to the church;
has been in the church when his Lordship was there
at a 'funeral—he usually gave out the psalms—he did
not dress for the occasion, but wore coloured clothes;
in the funeral processions his Lordship usually
walked before the mourners ; don't recollect seeing
l:im in the Clerk's seat; he joined in 'singing the
psalms. The Rev. Mr. Williams was the Clergy-
man that time; has heard that he is dead. Fre-.
quently applied to his Lordship to frank a letter : he.
would not do so.if you asked it as .a favour; the ser
vants always said it was for the purpose of getting
into disgrace—to get them flogged or reprimanded'
by their friends—his Lordship then always gave the.
frank. His Lordship frequently read the morning
set vice at Hursbourne, and immediately afterwards
he would read the evening service.
Cross-examined by Serjeant PELL.—Tias left Lord:
Portsmouth's service; believes he has met Mr. New-1
ton Fellowes since the year 1814 ; it was not purely
accidental ; called at his house ; does not recollect
. having called on him at his house more than once;
cannot say how long ago that is ; it may be threedje.
four years ago. Mr. Fellowes.Offered witness the a-
tuation of butler; Wrote to witness, making the offal:
made an affidavit in support of the former Cons-,'
mission in 1814, which failed. Quring the time those'
proceedings were going on, witness frequently saw
Mr. Newton Fellowes; was living at Bramley, near
Guildford,' when Mr. Fellowes sent to him ; he was.in,
business there as a shoemaker, mealman, and pork-
aran. At the meeting with Mrs Fellowes, witness
asked. hits if there would be any compensation allowed
for the time lie had lost? Mr. Fellowes did not make
any answer; has n'ot actually received any money;
does not know that the conversation with Mr. Fel-
lowes respected Lord Portsmouth ; was very much
about the person of Lord Portsmouth; used to heist

'the test : knows old Gale; Oirness and Gale were
going to church when Lord Portsmouth's carriage
overtook, them, and his Lordship whipped them, and
told them to go back ; they did so ; it was not a high
rchicl, but it was a carriage mad; witness meant to
have received the Sacrament that day, but Lord
Portsmouth had need such expressietts, that witneaa
did not feel sufficiently clear in his conscience todo
se; did not receive the Sacrament; had been in Ms
Lordship's service then twenty; five years;
been in his employ as a woodman about fifty years;
witness was once working in his shop,,when a ;ghee-
pot was on the fire, when his Lordship saidthire
should be no fire there, and that witnetsatole-hts
wood and chips ; a cart was once drawn uri to the
houie to have a board tacked to it. Witness led tPe
horse ; his Lordship said, that as witness bad never
before led that horse he must pay forfeit, wind; I 4
did ; paid his Lordship 2s. was present when Lora
Portsmouth asked another man forfeit; he said he
bad only 6d.—" thea d—n you, give me that,"- said
his Lordship ; the man said he would not, as he
wanted to buy 'bacco; kis Lordship once attempted
to pull a ladder away from under witness when he
was going to repair a clock.
Reexamined by Mr. Aniss.—Made an affilavft
in 1811 to the same purport as the evidence which
he bus given this day.
By the COURT.—His Lordship did not assign airy
reason for attending the funeral of witness's darrghter.
By the Juror.—Thinks his. Lordship a very weak
man ; could not tell if witness executed his work as
it should be ; he never gave witness absurd co de:s;
has given him foolish orders—very foolish ones; saw
his Lordship a fortnight ago.; thinks him weaker than
he was ;• has lately ordered witness to be tut tied o
his premises; has knowahisLordship forty-one years;
always thought him weak.
Charles Green examined by Mr. Dextraw —Was
servant to Lord Portsmouth in 1806, left him ill
1810: when he first went to the service he was asto-
nished at the liberties the servants took with his Lord-
ship; had lived in his place only about a fortnight,
when they met on the stairs, and his Lordship said.
Ix I must be cross with you too, Charles, as •,ell as
the rest;" after this he knew the length at hit Lord-
-ship's foot; is a shoemaker now; used to humour
him when be saw him out of temper, and g.t
behind him and take hold of his queue, to make him
laugh, and regain his humour; that when he ea:
cross with a servant, witness would run a nay be.
tween his legs, and then his Lordship is ould cease to
be angry ; when Witness was on a hay cart, Lord
Portsmouth told the carter to drive under a tree to
sweep him off; waited behind his Lordship's chair at
table, and if his Lordship saw any one looking out
of window, he would Irate the shutters put to, and
candles brought, even in broad day-light. On one
occasion when I was walking behind Ins Lordship, I
received a blow from him which knocked me down.
—I was taken home, and I had some white wine
whey ; I was not very ill ; however, I wished to
frighten him ; so I said to him, it's not fit that Gen-
tlemen should knock down their servants, and in the
Crown-office they would punish him; so I threat-
ened to put him there, and have all his estates taken
from him. He was frightened at that, and cried out,
" go and tell my wife of you r —Lord Ports.
mouth was very fond of music ; and gave some of
us suits of clothes to make a band of us. He would
sometimes ask what key the music which he heard
was in : I'd perhaps tell him that it was in the key dt
Q or Z. Once. when his sleeve caught fire I ran up
with a basin of water ; when the fire was put out,
his Lordship asked me why I did not put him into
the tub of water? In his mind he is like a boy of four
or five years old.
Cross-examined by Mr. Serjeant Pair..-1 am now
a shoemaker ; I used to go to balls as a musician; I
was once a Church of England man ; I have no*
joined the Wesleyan Methodists ; I do certainly ex-
hort occasionally—(Laughter). At one time, in broad
day-light, he ordered the shutters to be shut, and the
candles to be brought ; I did not think this the act d
a madman ; a madman, I believe, is a man wie
would kill anybody, quite deranged in his intell
one who does not know night from day. I did rft
hear Justice Best yesterday say, that he, Lord Ports-
mouth, was like a boy in his mind.
William Power examined.-1 am a carpenter, and
live near Hurtsbourne. I remember having made
coffin for a-child. When I attended the frineralN
walked before the funeral and me, and at Church 1*

he once put a rope round the neck of a man, aK
man would have been hanged if the rope had-not.
taken from his neck ; his Lordship used to receive
share of the money for bell-ringing.
Thomas Davis, Esq. examined by Mr. B.amfaltioas
I am a wine-merchant, and she Trtistee of o'B4
Giles's Bloomsbury School. I have known too
Portsmouth during the years 1809 and 1810. These
are girls as well as boys of from nine to fifteen Ms"
of age. I have frequently. seen Lord Portsoartatfi_

would join with the -boys 'and sing aloud in his kir
perfect manner, which had very little reference to the
tune or the time. He set the psalms to the girls, bet
in such a manner as would make the girls laugh, and
me turn round. He often endeavoured to have the
boys flogged. On one occasion, when by some mesa
or other he learned that I was not inspecting the
school, he went in and insisted on one of the boys
ceiving eighty lashes. sHe insisted on the' m'attai
doing it, but I was sent for, and as the boy had 0,011

Charles. Webh,examined by Mr.TyNnar...—LEntered
the service.of• Lord Portsmouth in 1808, and left in
1814 ; seldom went out without witness, who was his
coachman ; his Lordship, if be saw. any brown horses
on the road, would bergahr for them ; Lady Ports-
mouth directed him not to allow the purchase,.if ,the
horses were not wanted ; often went into the streets,
and sent men after the situation of coachman, which
witness held; his Lordship generally came into the
stable in the morning„ and once, when:he had driven
a horse until be was atinost dead, he told witness to
take a pail full of blood from him every day ; witness
did not obey him, but stuck a pin in the neck, as if
be had bled him • he would come quietly behind him,
when washing the carriage, and upset the water;
frequently threw mops and other things at him ; and,
Vhe thought he had hurt him, he wanted to bleed
.him, and used to pull out his lancet for that purpose.
He often went to the shops of different undertakers,
and asked them if they had blackjobs—he would then
come home and otder the phaeton, for the purpose
of joining the procession. Whenever he overtook a
funeral, he always joked at the coachmen, and struck
his whip at•them. He frequently drove the phaeton
between the mourning coaches. When driving in
town, if he came to a coach-stand, and saw a mourn-
, ing coachman, he would flog him with the whip,
calling him a• black-job man. his Lordship was
not particular as to which s'cle of the road he drove.
His Lordship frequently gave witness the whip, to.
flog the footman behind the phaeton. Sometimes,
when witness told him of the dangerous manner, in
which he drove, his Lordship would pull up, and
throw the reins upon the horses' backs. When the
late Lady Portsmouth died his Lordship came into
the stable to witness, and, mentioning the names of
several " black-job men," said, he hoped they would
be.at the funeral. He also mentioned the names of ,
some coachmen whom he ordered me to flog if they
were there, and Afterwards to duck them in the
horse-pond. Drove the carriage at the funeral; his
Lordship's conduct was very singular ; when they ar-
rived at home the next day, his Lordship came into
the stable, and asked witness if he had given it them
(the coachmen) well; he replied, as well as he could ;
his Lordship said, that as• witness had driven the
hearse part of the way down, he must give his Lord-
ship ss. for coking, as' it was the first time of his
driving a hearse; was in London when the marriage
with Miss Hanson took place; did not hear of it
until three o'clock in the day (Monday); heard of it
from Mr. Hanson's coachman ; on Tuesday he camel
to witness in the stable, and said, " Well, I've got a
new wife, and a young one ; I did not know of it.
till twelve o'clock ; and old Hanson had not got her
in the humour to have me until twelve o'clock on
,Sunday night;" his Lordship often told the cook not
to let the servants who had affronted him have any
thing but water-gruel and mustard for a week; he
inquired of the cook every morning if his orders had
been executed, and if he learned that she hid not
done as he had told her, he would gather a quantity
of stinging nettles to throW iii
.her face.
The Learned Counsel on both sides contended
upon the admissibility &this evidence.
giamination continued.—Witness had seen him
gather the nettles and take them into the house; as
he passed witness in the stable-yard, he would ask
him if he had had anything to eat ; if he said yes, he
would take the nettles into the house and say, " Then
I'll give it the cook well."
Cross-examined by Mr. Witnc.—Remembers the
previous investigation in 1814; was examined by
Mr. Sbarard at that time; made an affidavit; did
not know the object of the inquiry ; did not know at
the time for what purpose the affidavit was to be
used ; did not then state the same facts that he has
;o-day. That affidavit did not contain many of the
facts stated to-day. Witness was present when Lord
Portsmouth told her ladyship he wanted to buy
some brown horses ; read the affidavit at the time it
was made; was present when his Lordship gave the
cook the, directions about the gruel and mustard; the
twee of the cook was Saran Cook ; when witness left
-his Lordship's service he married and went into busi-
ness; lives now in Holborn ; never mentioned any-
thing about ducking the coachman till very lately.
.By the:JUßY.—Witness has frequently seen Lord
Portsmouth and his late ,Lady in company together.
Her Ladyship always treated his Lordship kindly;
,Lord :Portsmouth mentioned her death with the
greatest lee. Witness was discharged by Mr. Han-
son; hedid not give any reason for such discharge.
4Samuel Cooper examined by Mr. PowELL.—Was
'Acarter in the service of Lord Portsmouth, nine or
ten years ago; has frequently seen his Lordship drive
the waggon tearu; he generally flogged the horses
pretty much, although they seldom wanted it; once,
as they were doing up:hill, his Lordship would not
let the drag chain be taken off; it-had been put on
to come down the satne hill ; he turned the horses
'himself; he (Logged ihe middle horse very much ; it
was a free-going horse; be threw the horse down by
dogging him; remembers his Lordship flogging a
brown horse; he was like to shut his wind; he did
not peed the whip.
Willie* Litchfield examined by Mr. WITNEUL;»
—Was employed as house carpenter at Hurtsbourn.
Was so in the year 178.1, in the lifetime of Grace,
LOaly Portsmouth ; was ordered not to obey any-
body's orders hut her Ladyship's; sixteen years ago
lost a daughter; site was ill about a fortnight before
she died ; Lord Portsmouth came to the house of
witness, the parish clerk was with him, and remained
diere.three hours; did not speak to his Lordship; he
asked witness, in the presence of Lady Portsmouth,
how long his daughter would live? he answered—
," not long ;" when she died, one Richard Ford, a
carpenter, at Hurtsbourn, made the coffin; witness
did not order it; when the funeral took place, Lord
Portsmouth came to meet it, and walked before it
all the way to the church, which was about a mile
and a hail; witness gave Ford directions what •sort
ola coffin to make; witness paid for it; when Lord
Portsmouth went. before the procession he wore a
blue coat, and observed once to witness that they
*ere late; his Lordship :walked as an undertaker
would.-' *hen they arrived at thechurcb, hegavisout
the psalms, reading the first line, and singing with
