EDIA'BUkCII, NOVEMBER 14.

On Tuefday lart a County Meeting was held at
Perth, his Gr ice the Duke of Avitoi., Lord Liente.
rant, in the Chair, which was moll refpeelably at•
tended. The Earl of RatEADALBANE, who has not
been prefent at any of the County Meetings finee his
arrival in Scotland before, addieffed the Chair at
confiderable length. He (Wed, that the volunteer
force of that county was by much too titian ; that
bhnfelfs as well as others, had made offers of volun•
Leer corps, to which, for months, no anfwer bad
been given; that at lag they were rerofetl, while
others had bten accepted, which certainly could have
no preferable title; and he attributed it entirely to
the Loyd Lieutenant.

.The Duke of Avr4 ot. juitified himfelf Kith warmth,
from the charges that were brought againit him.—
If the volunteer force of the county was too fmall,
Isle raid that Miniltry had alone to anfwer fur that.—
Lord Balauar.serres name bad been at the top of
his lilt of thole who were to command volunteer bat-
talions, and it was the fyftern which Government had
adopted that bad prevented them from being embo-
died. He fpurned the reflations which had been
thrown on hi:pi-elf, as be was confcious of their in-
:Wife.

- Aril-count MELVILLE Paid, he flood in the fame pre-
dicament with the noble Earl. Not that he had had
the prefumption to propnfe railing a corps, but he
had been fo preffingly invited by a body of goo men
in Stratherne to take their command, that he had
tranfinitted their offers to the Lord Lieutenant, al-
though he was thus placing himfelf in a lituation for
which he was uufi.ted, both by his habits and hix time
of life. This corps was among the number of thofe
that had been refufed ; btu he bad good reafon to
know that the Duke could not be blamed for the re-
fufal either of this or the noble Earl's offer. He
could afrure him, that in many private converfations
with the Duke he had heard his Grace exprefs his
wills that Lord BeleoeLeases offer &odd be me-
Cep ter!.

The Earl of Mott*, accompanied by Sir W. Xs's,
Lords RAIIO.IIIIII and FORIII4 General Macias',
Co and DIILOM, and Colonel STIWART. walked in
trzelSon with the Loao PRIIIIDIN' T and feveral

Yeller two young gentlemen, bringing up to
tin of the lawe appeared by fumrnons, at
greet, charged by the Commander of the St.
Nuns Totanteer Corps. that they being perfons
enrolled iv the Paid corps, have negleaed and refufed,
on Ammatheing made for that pnrpofe, to pay cer•
pia Soak innsanting to t7s. 6d. incurred under the
rules and rerdations of the Paid corps.
Colonel Le Jenne, the commander of the corps,
with the Secretary, attended to Intiflantiate the
charges, which were both under funilar circum.
Rance,. _ _ _ _

They both pleaded Not Guilty to the charges.
The cireumfiances attending the cafes were, that
the defendants had Signed the moier•rell of the corps
dated the 4th of Auguß, before their Cervices were

to Government, to find themfelves in cloathing, and

er Government baring fignißed their opinicki dud
the volunteers exceeded the numbers they 'Mated
for, the defendants never attended any sneetiisa of
the corps.
The Secretary preduced the mufler-roll. and hav-
ing read the introdnikory Rending roles, proceeded
to point out the defendants' names, as having fired
it, and agreed to the rules hid down i but on his be-

defendants' hand writing, he acknowledged that he
could not Twear that, nor could Colonel Le Jenne i

dants, contended, they were entitled to an acquittal,
to which the Magid:rates agreed, and they were sc.
cordiogly found—Not Guilty.
Mr.Z.oorr then Rated, that a Sort time after the
defendants had given in their names to the St. Pan-

47URE.

ML. GOOWItrS AND •GL OF CHAUCEt.

The full and complete life of a Poet, Mr. GODWIN
ohferves, includes an extenfive furvey of the manners,
the opinions, the arts, and the literature of the age,
in which the Poet lived. This is the only way in
which we can become truly acquainted with the hif
tory of his mind, and the caufes which made him
what he was. We mull obferve what Co•vcee felt
and law, how he was edu..tted, what fpecies of learn
ing he purfued, and what were the objeas, the event!,
and the perfons, fucceffively prefented to his view,
before we can ftrialy and philofnphically underftand
his biography. To delineate the date of England,
fuch as CHAUCER faw it, in every point of view in
which it can be delineated, is the interefling objet of
Mr. Goowts's work: and it mull be owned by every
reader, that he has given abundant proofs of his dif-
centrism ; his obfervations are flriking, his language
is elegant, and he has delineated the peculiar features
of the age of CH•UCER, with great eloquence, jult-
nefs, anti accuracy.
Among the documents which he has found it ne-
cefrary to oafish, he difeovered one in the College
of Arms,. which was calculated in its confequences
to bring the received date of CHAUCER'S birth in
queftion. This, as it could not be fo formally difc tared
in the body of the book, he has confidered w:th great
care in a preliminary differtation, but without ob
taining that fatisfaaory inference the record Teemed
to promife.
Having gone over the doubted point of Coaucea's
birth, our author proceeds to mark the features of
his education, and that the reader may follow the
Poet through the various fcenes from which his mind
received the firft impreMons, has defcribed London
as it appeared at the beginning of the fourteenth cen-
tury. This, it mull be owned, is the true way of
writing binary c it is in the m inner of TACITUS.
who never mentions the befieging of a town without
firitplacing it before the reader in perfpealve. The
hiftory of the Poet's Education is fo combined with
the civil, military, religious, and domeftic inftitutions
of his time, that the reader's attention is rivetted ;
and he fancies the days ofCmaucts palling in review,
like the Kings before MACBETH.
The remarks on Tournaments are equally found
and philofophical ; and the hiftory of the tourna-
ment. the traits which diftinguifhed it from the just,
the Earartilar fplandour of chivalry, under Eowaso
the Third, and the imprellion it left upon our na-
tional charaaer, are all treated with an elegance sad
a concifenefs which has rarely been vltneffed.
Nor are the arts of eloquence forgotten. The
rude ftresigth of the Baronial manfion, and the fairy
grandeur of the Gothic church, are defcribed in rich
and glowing diaion, of which our languagefurnifhes
few parallels of equal merit; fcnlpture, painting,
embroidery, and mufic, the WI of which gave occa-
fionat animation to the (trains of Outlaw. art all
furveyed in turn, and furnifh a pidlure of the man-
ners; calms., deficiencies, and improvements of the
Englifh nation in the fourteenth century, highly gra-
tifyingto the curious Reader.
Having accompanied the Poet to his entrance at
Cambridge, Mr. GODWIN flops to view the hate of
our waivedties, and examines the condition of their
knowledge: his refearches lead to a conclufion in
which we beartily'agree. It was no mean fchool in
which the father of -Englifh Poetry was prepared for
the career he had to run. At the age of eighteen,
while yet at College, CommCaa produced his Poem
on " the Court of Lam"
The (late of Poetry, both here and in the countries
whence CHAU CBI borrowed many of his improve-
ments, is next confidered, and the Poet followed to
his retirement in the filter univerfity. Here his obli-
gations to BOCCACIO are brought into one view : an
Anslyfis of his Trodas and Crinde exhibited ; with
Memoirs of Sracant and Cowie, the patrons to
whom it was infcribed.

The completion of the Poet's Rudies at Paris teams
highly probable, though bit (unwired entrance at the
Inner Temple refit on more quelbonable authority,
The latter circumaance, however, is feized by his bio-
grapher as affording an opportunity to examine the
ideas and conceptions which the Rudy of the law, at
that period, might have produced tivn his mind;—
and has given rife to a diftoilition exceedingly inge
nioos. Among the
.books produced at this period of
his life is placed his verfios of the Rory of Pat AMON
and Altars; which, like the Taoszus and Cae-
sium!, is a copy from BoccAcso. Hie next work was
the tranflation of Boerneus.

Thus far Csavcsa appears only as a private in-
dividuals but tOWtowards sM Cktre of the firft volume
Mr. GODWIN exhibits him in a different view—
" From the thirtieth year of his age, if not fooner,
" to his daub, he was a courtier, the Counfellor of
" Princes, employed in various negoti.itions and cm-
" baits...sad iavolvedia thafsaiens, contentions, and
" intrigues tibia tires„
Like Arabians and Pa ioa. it appears, he was in-
&bumf Oar his potties' fortune to his literary worth.
But here, for the prefent, we fhall dole our obferva.
lions refer sin/ a farther notice of this literary phe•
nomenou for a -future opportunity.

TRiarita. Crbiter-Gatoan.—Laft night the Tea.
gedy of rewire frofereed was performed at this The.
sire in a very fuperior ftildt.—Of the excellence of
Mrs. Simons in Beloidera, Poblic ha: long had
brilliant and ;fleeing proofs ; and the j/Aer of Mr.
Kassa:A may alto be pronounced a very interelling,
though a rather laboured, portrait of the charaCter ;
but the novelty of the evening was the Pierre of Mr.
Coos s, and-a more maftetlT performance of the part
throughout we have not witnelred lance the days of
HIIIOEIIOII. Mr. COORS was in full pollefLon of his
powers, and gave the text with all mat admirable dif-
criminaticio and judicious attention to paufe and em-
phafts for which his beg Rage delineations are fo dif.
tinguifbed; nakbir do weever remember to have ken
him look a chandler better. The part of Reii6esilt, the
hoary trlitor, was very well performed by CP•PI4•3I,
late of the Haymarket Company, and the reit of the,
Confoirators were fufficiendy rep teik.—Some of the
earlier pafEiges of the Play were politically applied
by the galleries as heretofore ; bur the ',ohmic

COURT OF COMMON rLEAs,

Serjeant BAILEY Gated, that the (Nett off is
`application to the Court was, to accelerate Out :pro-
grefs of this caufe, contrary to an ordei that had been
made in it by Mr. Justice Roogs.
Mr. Serjeant Ru NNINGTON Rated, 'that this aaion
was brought to recover penalties, to the amount of
one million four hundred and feveziteen tboufand
pounds Reding.
Mr: Serjea.tt WILLIAMS Rated the ci.:cla.ration was
37 long folios.
Mr. Juftice Roosts faid, it had been reprefented to
him, this was a crtellion of very great importance on
the 6 per cent. which was allowed by the Ratute so
be taken by WeR India Merchants on Weft India fe-
curities. There was a witnefs abfolutely neceilary,
who was to come from the Weft Indies in order to
attend the trial, and that they could not proceed to
trial without him. His Lorsltitip told them, if that
was fo, at all events to take a week, and at the end of
that week to come with what intorniraion they bad.
His Lordthip thought it unreafonah!e to c.til in a
party in fuch a cafe as this, to plead to foci « declar-
ation in four days.
The Loll!) CHIEF JUSTICE fail, juflice could not
he done. The penalties were very high—three times
the amount of the money borrowed.
Mr. Plaice ROOKS fail, if he was wrntm the Court
would cm-tea him ; but he thought, if that wit:..efs
was material, and had not come, they ought to have
further time to plead.
Lord At.vaanev faid, he had had prodigious
diE-
culties in this AR of Parliament at the Rolls.

Mr. Serjeant BAILEY faich he was not very willing
to mention it.

Mr. JoßiCe Rooks Aid, be would tell them very
fairly, Me &mild think himfelf very well warranted in
giving them farther time. He did not mean to prefs
on fuch an Etion.

Lord ALv %Ik Y (did, in every care where the pe-
nalties were v.l y high, the Court ought to fee the
Defendant bau all opportunity of making a full de•
fence, and that all fuch cafes were favoured by the
Court.

The Learned Serjeant took nothing by his Motion.
COURT OF RING'S BENCH, NOV. 57.
?HE KING V. VOTTINGH&M.

Mr. ER SK IN s prayed the judgment of the Court
nn the Defendant, f .r an alf.tult.

Mr. Juflice Coosa proceeded to read his notes of
the ttial. The Profecutor was John Patfons, Efq. a
Magiftrate, and mailer of the ceremonies at Lincoln,
who, for fume reafon which did not appear, had re-
turned to the Defendant his fubfcription money, as a
fubleriber to the aftemblies at that city. The De-
fendant, in confequence of this proceeding, repaired
to the Affembly Rooms on the evening of the 6th of
January talc, the moil crowded and brilliant altembly
of the lealon, when he afked the Profecutor what he
meant by returning his fulsfcrilstion money? Not re-
ceiving an anfwer, he pulled off Mr. Patfons' wig :
this took place in the Affembly Room. He then
followed him into the tea room, where he beat him
over the arms and !boulders with a knotted (lick.—
He raid he would repeat the beating, and according.
ly did fo. Some months having expired, the Defen-
dant wrote a letter to Mr. Parfons, to the following
effed

" You,* Janice of the County and City of Lin-
coln, having neglected to comsnit me, for having
called you a dammed 'coward, take notice, that in the
enfuing term, I intend to foe out, in his Majelly's
Court of King's Bench, a Writ of Latitai, in nrdcr
to recover from you the penalty of 51. for fuch ne-
sted, in terms of the Itatute is that cafe math am I pro.
vadat N. B. Take notice that you owe me 205. for
this information, in terms of the above Ad of Par-
liament." _ _ _

Several affidavits from the Rev. John Doubican
and Mr. John Lowe, in favour of the defendant, were
then about to be read, when Lord Ellenborough ant-
ed, " Is the defendanran attorney of this Court ?"
Mr. Erfkine replied, " He is, my Lord." The af-
fidavits then dated the whole affair at very confider.
able length. They deftribed the defendant as an in-
dividual every way qualified and entitled to be a fuh-
fcriber to the Lincoln Affembliew on the ground of
his education and condue. which had uniformly been
that of a gentleman. The affidavits Rated the con-
dud of the Mailer of the Ceremonies, when Mr.
Nottingham :liked him why he had returned his
money, as very infolent and rade. Mr. Parfons,
moreover. had received no perfonal injury from the
blows given him by the defendant, as he remained
at the Afrembly the whole evening, and teemed to
be in higlwrijiriee thaw ufwal. The defendant had alfcr
been haraffed by the profecntiont which had been
moved into this Court tor no other end than that of
putting him to expenee.
Lord Es.s.ansosouon—" Mr. ErOtine, there are
Some points in there affidavits which ought. I think,
to be anfwered. When do you think yon will be
ready to anfwer them r.
Mr. ERIPRINR-4, I think by Wednefday, at Earthen,
my Lord."
Lord ELLINSOROUGH Very well. In the mean
time the defendant mull be committed to the prifon
of this Court.
ins MHO IP. 1441.1L0D AND ANOTHER.

Mr. ATTORNIY G moved fnr the iodic.
ment of the Court againfl the Defendant and has
Brother. who are fcrvants to a ',newer, who lives at
Gatefhead, near Newcallle-upon-Tyne. Their of
fence was for *franking fosse revenue officers in the
execution of their office.

Mr. &leant Coce act. and Mr. HOLIOYD appear.
ed for the e Defendants and ohferved, among other
things that the Officers themfclocb were not arialy
jufliGed in coming to this Brewer's houfe in the mid.
dle of the night. without the fmalleft notice. The
whole offence of the Defendants confided in hawing
detained thek officers for fome time in their matter's
kitchen. • _ _ _ _ _ _

ATTORISSIF Canapst. obferved, that the fe-
rims pan of this cafe was this, that fine the late
A& taxing beer by clefts, ,t had been a very gene
ral pratlice for Brewers, who brewed Aron g beer
and (mall beer, u the tirength of the (mall beer
could not be afeertained, to brew frn3ll beer two
thirds of the iliength of Arcing beer, and after both
kinds of beer bad paid the duty, to tt.e (Irony
beer 11. .• I,4rrel, ,snd the (mall beer as. per barrel ;
after tlaw. LA.! beat duaes it was sow a very coastal

pradice, by means of A pipe going from we barrel
to another, to draw off this Imall beer, and mix it
with the thong, which was a very conliderable ira.
potitir.n on Government, and afterwards it was cx.
tremely di!ficult to deter it. This was always dale
in the night time, and if there Officers had gives no.
tice to the Brewer of their' coming, it would ban
completely defeated the Ojai of their *.
The Defendants were ordered to Ise brought up
on Saturday fennight, to receive die'iwllMknt of
the Court." _ _ _

Another Defendant from Exeter, who had been
conviCted of a fimilar offence, was ordered to be
brought up at the fame time.

THE KING V. MILN.

The ATTORMILY GENFIAL alto moved for the
Judgment of the Cunt againa him.
The Defendant was tried at the lag affizes for
Dorchefier, before Lord ALVANLFY, charged with
having, with force of arms, made an affank on tome
Revenue Officers, and with having oppofed them in
the execution of their office.

Mr. Jußice Goose obferved, this was an offence
upon which condign punilbment ought to be inflieled.
The Court, taking into their coaf►dcration all the
circurnflance% of this cafe, ordered and adjudged that
the Defendant fhould be imprifoned in his Mano-
rs's gaol, in the county of Dorcheßer, for Liz ca-
lendar months, and be then difchargtd.

On the motion of Mr. ATTORNEY GENEZAL. JO.
feph Dennet, and his two fins, William and George
Dennet, who were tried and convieted before Mr.
BAron THostrsou, at the Taft affizes for Durham,
were brought into Court to receive Juck;:nent, for a
jimilar offence with the !A Defendant.
_ _ _

Mr. Hott.oca, on the part of the Defendants,
made a fbort fpeech in mitigation of punllhmcnt,
on the ground chiefly that this matter did not con-
tain any grofs violence towards the officers. They
refilled the officers making a fearch, without being
accompanied with a conflable : they thought they
had no right. In that they were rnifiaken, As they
had a fpecial warrant from a Magittrare. It wis
impoffible they could have carried on fmuggling to
any extent, or that they had been in the habits of
doing it, as they lived thirty miles from the coall.
They wilbed to be committed to their own county
ga.ll.
Lord ELLIMBOROI/011 °braved, that it was a very
inconvenient gaoL
Mr. Juftke Glum Paid, it was a bad precedent
for them to chute their own gaol.
Lord Ett.ausoanuca.-44 Let them be commit-
ted in the mean time to the King's Bench Prifon,
and be brought up with the others to receive the
judgment of the Court."

Mr. Juttice Gansa pronounced the judgment of
the Court, which was, that James thould be impri-
Coned in the gaol of Newgate for one year, and at the

Thomas Pixley was charged with an incliftment

CRIMIS*L INFORMATION.

Mr. Glass moved the court for a Rule to thew
cattle why a criminal information should not be sled
againft Lieut. John Mitchell, who is the Commander
of a prefs-gang. The perfon who made this applica-
tion to the Court was Mr. Robert Thompson, die
Killer of the ship Nancy, of Newcaale-opon.Tyne.
He fwore, that on the la of Auguß lea his veal
was ready for fest, and that he'was going to South
Shields for a pilot ; that on his return to his vefel,
at ten o'clock at night. be being about to fail that
night, he was aruch by a curies, and when he
looked round he faw this Lieutenant, who appeared
to be very much intoxicated ; that he told him be
was the Mallet of a veffel jut about torsi!, and de-
fired him to examine his papers, He was ready to
go with him any where that he might inlpea his pa.
pers. Notwithaanding that, be forcibly draggsd
him along the (beets, and carried hint to the place
of rendezvous of impreffed men. He waited that
a light might be brought, and that they might
examine the papers ; be was, however, put among
the other men the whole night; daring that time
he was prevented hem failing with his flip, and
loft two tides: The next day be was immediately
difeharged. He not only had that affidavit, but an..
other affidavit of a man of the name of Rots,
who happening to come by, and knowing Mr.
Thompfon, he ezpwftulated with them ; on which
they immediately feired him, and carried him
to the place of rendezvous, and kept him there the
whole night. There was alto the affidavit of a third
perfon, to the fame tied. This gentleman was
there the whole night, when they refuted to examine
hit papers. This was outrageous eondoEt on the
part of this gentleman, and wholly unutlifiable. He
trotted the Court would grant the information.
