—....--
The general Sessions commenced this morning, at the Justice
Hall, in the Old Bailey, before Mr. Justice EVIRODetf, the Loan
blAvoa, Mr. Sefjeallt Mum, the Aldermen, &c.
'llse Calendar, of the present Session contains a list of leg pri-
soners for trial. There are, however, upwards of 900 prisoners;
the remainder having been committed since the Calendar was
drawn up.

CHARGE OF ROBBERY BY A SOLDIER.
Nut Robinson was put to the bar on an indictment charging him
with stealing, on the 9th of May, from the barracks at Hounslow,
in the dwelling-house of our Sovereign Lord the King, belonging
to the Medical Department, a Bank of England Note for 4S, the
property of James Dawn, to whom the prisoner acted as a servant.
The prosecutor described leaving his writing-desk in his room, in
which hr had placed three XS notes. On the 10th of May, having
missed the note, he questioned the prisoner, who strongly denied any
knowkdge of it. Two days after, a victualler resident at Hounslow,
named Lester produced to him a note which he knew to be his
property. The prisoner was then placed in the guard-boase and
witness told him that he had discovered that he had changed the
note. The prisoner seemed very much astonished.
Elizabeth Hunt deposed seeing the prisoner try several keys, and
at length open the desk and take out the notes.
John Lester, victualler, of Hounslow, proved changing the note
in question for the prisoner, or the Serjeant, but he could not say
which, as be mixed them with others he bad in his possession. Mr.
Dawn afterwards saw the note, and identified it as his property.
The note was produced, and sworn to by Mr. Dawn.
The prisoner, in his defence, declared his innocence, and said that
Mr. Dawn had given him the note to change. He called on Mr.
Dawn to speak to his character, and that Gentleman said be be-
lieved be bad borne a very good one.
Mr. Justice &amnion summed up the evidence to the Jury,
who found the prisoner Not Guilty.

FURTHER PARTICULARS.

- -
Tuesday afternoon his Majesty became worse, and at night it
was found necessary to send for Dr. Ley, from his house, Mount-
street. On the arrival of that Gentleman, be found that his Ma-
jesty was in a very low state, and death appeared to be approaching
fast. The King. on seeing Dr. Ley, caught him by the hand, and
said, in his own language, " I am dying; I know I am dying."—
Ile continued very sensible, and knew all around him. Madame
Poki, the Governor's Lady, was particularly attentive to his Ma-
jesty ; she supported his head from one o'clock till the time the
vital spark had Bed : Poki, the Governor, and the rest of the suite,
were supporting their Royal Master's legs at the foot of the bed.—
At two o'clock he became alarmingly worse, and he seemed then
not to know any person ; the Admiral was brought into the room,
sad was affected to tears. The King took no notice of bins, nor
of any other person abcut h.m. From that tine till four o'clock he
kept continually saying, " I shall lose my tongue;" and jest before
be breathed his last, his Majesty faintly said—" Farewell to yoti
all !—I am dead !—I am happy !" after uttering these words he ex-
pired in the arms of Madame Poki.
The physicians noticed a gradual increase in his Majesty's dis-
order since the lamented death of his Royal Consort; and on the
afternoon of Monday last, after her 'Majesty's remains had been de-
po,ited in St. Martin's Church, he made anxious inquiries of hie
attendants if they had seen her safely entombed; on being an-
swered in the affirmative, he said he was happy, and that he hoped
he should soon be with her.

About half-past one o'clock, Sir Matthew Tierney was shewn
the body of his Majesty, and be declared that his death occurred
through the formation of a large abscess on the lungs.
Nladanie Poki still remains in a bad state, and many of the suite
appear very unwell.

As his Majesty perceived the hour of his dissolution to approach,
he requested the French Gentleman who accompanied him to this
country, to expreis his earnest desire that his remains, together
with those of his late beloved wife, should be removed to his native
island, as soon as the Governor and his attendants were sufficiently
recovered to see that melancholy duty perforated. His Majesty
also gave directions, leaving all his effects in this country to the
Governor for his use, as well as that of his other attendants. His
Majesty was particularly attached to Captain Statbuck, and on a
recent occasion expressecthis determination not to return to his own
country without bim.

THE DINNER.

The Members of the Society dined together after-
wards, at the Freemasons' Tavern ; his Royal Highness
the Duke of Sussex, as President, took the Chair.
The usual toasts were drank, to which were added
others connected with the Public Institutions of the me-
tropolis; and the company remained until a late hour.

The Tariff. Bill which had passed the House or :epre-
sentatives, as our- Readers are aware, by a majwity of
hve only, was read a second time in the Senate on the
9.0;:t alt. Mr. Floyd moved that it should be referred
to the Committee of Finance, but on a t.:iviion the motion
was lost by a majority of one. It was finally referred
to the Committee on Commerce and Manufactures.
By the arrival of a vessel from California, we learn
that a Russian sloop of war was cruizilig on the North-
west Coast, with the avir.ved intention, it is said, of cap-
wring all American iecsels found in that quarter, in
breach of the Imperial Ukase. The Russians had been
surveying the port of San Francisco, and the inhabi•
tants, who adhere to the Mexican Government, were ap-
prehensive that they intended to take possession of the
place. They had made a settlement at Pont Bodoga,
and were building vessels there.

NATIONAL SCHOOL.
Yesterday the Annuil,.Exarnination of the Child,ed
educated at the above School took place at the SchGoi.
Muse, in Baldwin's Gardens,.Gray's Inn lane. • His
Grace the Archbishop of CANTERBURY presided. Tt.e.e
were also present the Bishops of LONDON, ELY, and ST.
ASAPII, a great number of Clergymen, and several other
persons of distinction. The different classes of the
children first read a chapter in the Bible, and were asked
by the Head Master a variety of questiinis as to the
meaning of what they had read, to which they gave
very satisfactory answers. They were nest examined
as to their proficiency in arithmetic, and were asked
several questions in some of • the mo►e difficult roles,
which they answered with the greatest accuracy. The
Girls afterwards exhibited to the Ladies several spe„i-
mens of their needlework, and the Boys of their writing,
both of which appeared to give great pleasure to their
distinguished Patrons. The children then sang a hymn
and repeated the LORb'b Prayer,alter which the company
separated, highly gratified with the day's proceedings.

FORTEUSI.M=. SOCIETY.

The novel circumstance; of this Society circulating
their Bibles with a General Index of Contents, and with
the more instructive and devotional Chapters marked,
for the help of young and inexperienced Readers, ap-
pears to have excited a considerable degree of interest,
and drew a highly respectable audience to their First
General Meeting, which was held on Tuesday, at the
Frecniasons"favern.

The Chair was taken by Major MOODY, Royal En-
gineers, who in the course of the day enumerated various
anecdotes tending to strew the utility of the Porteusian
I3iblo, and particularly the satisfaction which was ma-
nifested at New York, where, as soon as it was examined
and approved, a Meeting of the Inhabitants was imme-
Li;xely convened, with a view to tie formation of a
S.)ciety upon a similar plan.

CITY BONDS.

The Right lion. the LORD NI AYO it informed th?. Court,
that he had convened them together in consequence of
a Requisition he had received, " to take into considera•
tion the expediency of further prosecuting the Bills
brought into Parliament, in regard to the pal merit of
the City Bonds," which Requisition wai read.
The Fina4ce Committee reported on the Petition of
the Bond Holders, recommending that the present
Holders should have an option to accent an interest of
4!. per cent. instead of si. on their signifying their assent
thereto within one month from the passing the Act.—
The Report was agreed to.
The Court then proceeded to consider the requisition,
when a motion was made, that the above Committee be
instructed not to proceed with the Bills relating to the
monies raised on the Orphans Fund, and for establish-
ing the Coal Market.
To which an amendment was moved, that the Com-
mittee be empowered to consider the whole of the Bills,
and act thereon as they should be advised.—The amend-
ment was agreed to by a considerable majority.

BOW-STREET-THIS DAY.

Diwarsstisc Cast.—J M'afulluir, a person who had formerly
been in very respectable circumstances, but whose appearance now
vrongly indicated that " Misery had marked him for her own,"
wa• put to the bar, charged with stealing from the Sun and Apple-
tree, in White Dart-yard, Drury-lane, two pewter pots. The un-
fortunate being had lodged in the house for about a fortnight, and
nn Saturday last he took the property in question to a pewterer';
shop in Shoe-lane, Fleet-street, and offered them for sale. Th_•
however. were known; and on being told he had stole:,
Clem, lie ran away. Last night the pewterer went to the Sun and
Apple-tree to return the pots, when, to his astonishment, he found
the prisoner ►itting in the tap-room, and gave 'lint into custody.--
The landlord did not wish to give charge of him, in consequence of
his distressed situation; but the pewterer insisted on doing so, and
thus be appeared before the Magi-trates, Sir lite:Haub iIIdNIE and
31r. halt••. The landlord did not attend, but the :Magistrates in-
--isted on his making his appearance, and shortly after Mrs. Griffiths
i air forward, but did not by any means wish to press the charge.
She also corroborated the tale of distress; the case, however, WAS
ton clear, and he was about to be committed, when it was disco-
vered that the property could not he identified : he wasdischarged.

LORD BYRON'S A UTO-BIOGR APII

--..sw--
TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.

Sin—ln consequence of the many misconceptions
thit are abroad, with respect to the share which I have
h.id in the destruction of Lord Byron's Memoirs, I
think it right to state the leading bats of that transac-
tion to the Public.

Without entering- into the respective claims of Mr.
Murray and myself to the property in these Memoirs (a
question which, now that they are destroyed, can be
but of little moment to any one), it is sufficient to say
*at, believing the manuscript still to be mine, 1 placed
it ;it the disposal of Lord Byron's sister, Mrs. Leigh,
with the sole reservation of a protest against its total
destruction—at least without previous perusal and con-
:lltation among the parties. The majority of the per-
;‘ms present disagreed with this opinion, and it was the
only point upon which there did exist any difference
between us. The manuscript was accordingly torn and
horned before our eyes; and I immediately paid to Mr.
Murray, in the p:eseace of the Gentlemen assembled,
2,000 guineas, with interest, &c. being the amount of
what I owed him upon the security of my bond, and
for a which I now stand indebted to my publishers,
Messrs. Longman and Co.
Since then the family of Lord Byron have, in a man-
lier highly honourable to themselves, proposed an ar•
raiyement, by which the suns thus paid to Mr. Murray
right be teimbursed me; but, from feelings and consi•
aerations which it. is unnecessary here to explain. I have
respectfuliy, but peremptorily, declined their offer.
I am, Sir, your's, &c.

BUCHAREST, MAY 4.

Tartars from Constantinople have just brought us
the news that the Divan has consented to the evacua-
tion of the Principalities. The Austrian Consul imme-
diately sent an express to Vienna with the news ; but as
this evacuation has been so often announced, it is no
wonder that many persons still zefuse to believe it,
though this time they are probably mistaken.

New York Papers to the 27411, and Philadelphia Pa-
pers to the '2lst ult. have been received, being two days
later than the previous accounts. By the Ardent schooner,
arrived at Baltimore on the 22,1, in twenty-two days
from Porto Bello, information had been received that a
Colombian squadron of sir. sail had arrived at Porto
Bello on the 26th of March, from Maracaibo and Car-
thagena, and landed 1,500 troops, who crossed over to
Panama. A letter received at Porto Bello, dated the
26th of March, stated that a vessel had arrived on the
opposite coast from Callao, bringing information that
the Royal Spanish army had made proposals to Bouvit a
to capitulate, on condition of being sent to Panama to
cross to the Atlantic. Letters from Laguayra, of the
16th of March, mention the arrival tkere of a French
sloop of war, in six days, from Martinique, having on
board a French Consul, to reside in Laguayra.
