At an early hour yeßerday morning every corner

Southwark, Chritichurch and Lambeth on the other

which are included in the military divition of the
Weßern part of the Dißria of the Metropolis, might
be raid to be in arms. Each Corps was muttered ac.

ties, muttered before day-light. The crowd of (pee-
tators muttered with equal alacrity, and at an early
hour ; but the Park gates were nun, and no one
could obtain admiffion until Come Volunteer Corps
Arrived, which was unavoidibly fomething later, as
they waited to collet in regular bodies and march
in proper order : the number of the Corps was Cu
great, and they came fo fall in every diretion, that
they were fometimes obliged to halt as occalion re-
quired to give way one to the ether ; the fog too
was Co uncommonly thick about eight o'clock, when
the Corps were generally marching in, that, though
they might be enabled to form tome judgment by
the uniformity of the military beat of the left foot,
and the found of the mufic, yet it was impolEble to
dißinguith an objea at the diftance of five yards. A
great number of the Life Guards were Rationed at
the different avenues leading to the Park, who ferved
the purpofe of being both barriers againft the ins-
istence prelim of the crowd, and guides to the re.

mil obferrations which the different Commandants
of Corps had made previous to the day of General Re-
Ciew, were fo cadet, that every Corps within that
'aft (weep of the places where there bodies were railed,
was in its proper Ration by nine o'clock. The crowd
of the fpe,ors became by this time Co great, that
emery principal "met leading to the Park was as
crowded as a country town on a great fair day, and
la the Park it leaned as if there were feveral regular
ticks of people Rowing in to fill the great rcfervoirs,
Hyde Park and Renfington Gardensiwith additional

arrival was announced by aqtragoott. who galloped
forward as loon as his MajarrY reached the Henfe
Barracks. The &A gun was difcharged as his Ma-
;sire rode along the bridge which croffes the
6ttpiaitine near the young gantAtioa, and an she

bands of the. different corps played as he Paffed
by. A royal Paiute was given by tome artil-
lery, which were brought from .Woolwich for
the aeration. His MAJESTY having intpeCted the
right Wing, proceeded about flu }laces in front of
the line, until he came to the Left wing, on the
Knightlbridge tide of the Serpentine, obferving each
Corps minutely as he paired. During the whole of
the time of his MAJISTT's infpeding the line, he was
accompanied by feveral General Officers, the Princes
of the Honfe of Bourbon at prefent in town, her
bfaissry, and the Princeires. When they came to
the extremity of the Left Wing, her MAJESTY was
grAcionfly pleated to pay particular attention to the
Sharpfhooters and let down her coach•window, that
the might °Verve them the more minutely. Some
of the French Princes occafionally converted with
his MAJESTY as they came up to a ttelh corps. His
MAJESTY returned to the centre of the line, nearly
oppolite the Magazine. The group of Officers, &c.
furrounded his perfon. The firing, Ice. was regulated
as before by the difeharge of cannon. General the
Earl of HARLINGTON under the direction of his
Royal Highnefs the Commander in Chief, gave the
word, and the rell was managed bythe Aids du camp
and the Commanders of the different corps.
The firing was as before by battalions, from centre
to flank, and confidering it in a general way, it might
be aridly Paid to be very correct. The firing of the
old St. George's, the St. James's, &c. was equal to
that of any regular regiment : in the right centre the
Bloomlbury and Inns of Court were obfcrved to fire
remarkably Ready • and in the centre, the Loyal
North Britons and Law Afrociation preferred the nt-
moil regularity in their different wallies. Any failure
in the left wing muff be exeuted, as they are of courfe
the neweß of all our new-raifed levies. Three cheers
were given by the whole of the Corps, Officers and
Privates, with the Briti(h populace and the Foreign
Nobility, &c. joining in the general acclamation.—

came up to him, the Officers falutiog and thematic
playing as they paled. His Majefly took particular
notice of two or three Corps, and eonverfed with their
Commanders a few minutes as they paffed by. Co.
loncl Cox, Lord Rsav, and Lieutenant-Colonel Ei-
sen's were refpedively honoured by his Royal no-
tice of the appearance and difcipline of their
Corps.
The Brigadier• General, who was Rationed on the
right wing, alto obferred to Lords CHISTEIVIILD
and Amuses? that it would not be poffible for any
regular body Of troops to fire in a more uniform and
Ready manner. The whole took up a confiderabk
time in palling by in review, and were not off the
ground till near two o'clock. The Royal Family
then returned to Eaw._

to lay that hardly a angle perfon of confequence at
the Weft end of the town was abfent on this intereft-

for to whom could it not give pleafure but to the
cold hearted or the treafonable, a defcription of per.

hail the illufive approach of a bright vifion, which

The Volunteers of the metropolis have acquitted
themfelves with iofinne credit, and we truft that the
approbation which they have already received will
only animate them to perfeverance in completing
themfelves is their military duties. In a Ikon time
they will become lefs irkfome and arduous, and every
one will have the gratification of knowing that his
time and labour have not been unavailing.

On Wednefday laft the Dorfet Yeomanry Cavalry,
commanded by the Hon. Lieut. Col. Dawn, had a
grand field day in Fordington field, near Dorchefier,
and although it was only the third day that the whole
of this refpeaable Corps had exercifed together, they
were, on this day, brigaded with the soth-Light Dra-
goons, commanded by Lieutenant Cob TAYLOR, and
performed the different evolutions withfuch ftradinefs,
regularity, and precifion,as reflofted the grate It credit
on their Commanding Officers, and drew from Col.
TAyLoa many very landfome eulogiums, who ex-
, preffed his high admiration of their difcipline and

that this Corps is the firft of Volunteer Yeomanry
Cavalry that has attempted to as with a regiment

gued, that the astute law epos the crab's:lmam is
this cafe was only declaratory of that which was be-
fore the law of the land ; sad that in order legally
to fubflantiate the guilt of the mitoses.. it was elm-
tial that the whole of the crime charged Avid be
proved to have been committed within the County
where the crime was laid. and in which the passage
was tried. Now. in the prefect cafe. the instilment
was laid. and the crime alledged. in the Comity of

not return to his employer at Lichfield. but eatiree.
tied. The embezzlement, in the indiamleuts wee hid
as at Lichfitld, lied be believed the cafe was rein-

tid for the opinion of the Tv elve Jrtdßts ; which. at

Cox, in May, 1802, in Weliminflar, by giving her
feveral mortal blows and binifes, of which the died.
The indieinisiit was founded not upon any bill foon3
by the Grind Jury, but upon the verdict of a Coro-
ner's %%plat, for wilful murder.
Mr. OVRNEY, as Cornice! ft-a the prifoner, moved
the Court to quath the indictment for a fatal infor•
mality, namely, that although it fhs'cd the prifoner
to have given feloninufty to the deeeafed feveral
mortal blows and frit:lies, in conleouence of which
"The died, yet it omitted to Hate, technically, as it
necellioily ought to have done, in order to be valid,
that the laid Henry Peyton had wilfully mordeied
the laid Phcebe Cos by (itch mortal blows, britiles,
&e. and therefore he argued, with great deference,
th it the cafe ought lint to go to a Jury.
Mr. ICK A PP, Counfel for the profecution, admitted
tl'e obi( aion.

—His Lordlliip had to lament this, amongft many
indances, in which the molt flagitious crimi-
nality had eluded public jullice, through the grofs
ignorance of a Coroner as to the proper mode and
making up the judgment upon his own impala. In
the coolie of his experience on circuit, a great num-
ber of (=Hat inflances occurred, from fimilar
tance in the officer who filled the department of Co.
toner; and from his general experience it would
'really item to him as if the molt ignorant perfons
in the -county were felefted to fill that important
office, which ought always to be placed in the hands
of men of the profoundeft difcernment and intelli-
gence. The indictment, of cootie, was quafhed.—
• But his Lordfhtp then addrelled the plifoncr, and
impreffieely told him his efcape for the prefent was
not owing to any palliative circumflances in the atro-
city of his guilt, but entirely to an error in the form
of hisindiament ; but whether or net he lhould be
again brought to the bar of that juflice he now
eluded, upon a new indiftment, for the fame offence,
to which he was fully liable, he felt it his own duty
now Oladmonifh him. The barbarous and unmanly
cruelty of the clime for which he flood charged ; the
terrible calamity, mifery, and death, which that ens-
elty had brought upon an unfortunate, and, as it ap.
peered, unoffending female ; and he hoped the awful
fituation in which his crime had laid againft him this
day, would induce him for the future to adopt a
conduft lefs brutal and ferocious. The prifoncli for
the prefent was difeharged.
Two Serjeants of the Army of Referee, who had

Some fig :it argument here took place between the
Cot1;1E1 on bOth fides. The Advocate for the Pri.
finer contended for the neceOity (in Each a cafe as
the prefmt) of proving that the deceafed died in the
county of Middlefoc. This pefitton was refilled by
the Counfel for the Profecutien, as unneceffary, the
wounds being infiiaed, and the deceafed being leen
dead in that county.
Ti.e Court were ultimately of opinion, that as the
fatal blows were given in the County of Middlelex—
as lie was feen dead in that County, and in the in-
terval had not been feen out of that County, it was
matter for the conlideratien of the Jury, whether he
did not draw his laft breath in the County of Mid-

Aohon: Garberefio, a youth about 19, of very
genteel appearai.ce, was indieted for felonioully fleal-
iag and embezzling, on the 26th of February laR, a
certain bill of exchange, value 401. the goods and
property of his mailer and empli•yer, Mr. George
Wright, Attoiney and Notary Potslic.
The profecution was opened, and the caufe Rated,
by Mr. ALLEY.
George Wright, jun. Rated, that his father is an
attorney and notary public, refident near Manchefier-
fquare, and is generally employed by the honfe of
Mears. Hammerflty and Co. bankers, to note bills
not paid to them in the way of trade. That the pri-
loner was clerk to his father for fume confiderable
time. That on the 26th of February the witnefsdid
accompany the prifoner to Mars. Hammerfley's,
where they received two bills of exchange, due that
morning, the one. for 91. on Mr. Jefferies, of Pall
Mall, and the other on a Mr. Gregory, near Holborn.
That witnefs delivered tbefe bills to the priforter,and '
defired him to apply immediately for the payment,
and return without delay to his father's hook with
either bills or money. This was about fix in the
evenings But the prifoner never reursedro his fa-
ther's home to give any account of the bills, nor did
witnels ever afterwards fee him until he was taken
up by the Officer of Judice, about three weeks or al
month fence, though he had feversl times fought and
enquired for him at his father's houfe, where he al.
ways unsieritood he lodged.
Mr. Wright, fenior, (worn, laid the prifoner never
mantled to his hoofs to account for the bills • but
chit he the witnefs was obliged to pay to art.
Hammerfley the amount of the bills.
Crofs-examined by Mr. GURSlLY.—Witnefs fays,
he never went bimfelf to Gregory's to enquire whe-
ther the 401. bill was paid or not, but fent his clerk
Charles Gardaer thete. He knew nothing about
Gregory, nor was he prefent at his trial for forgery
(for which Gregory was convided and hanged). Mr.
Jefferies, of Pall Mall, acknowledged his bill bad
never been prefented, and paid the amount on his
being indemnified againa any other claim. He denied
pofitively that he ever bad Rated to Mr. Jefferies,
the poor boy's pocket had been picked of the bill.—
He did not fay to the prifoner's parents, that if they
would put the money down, he would abandon pro-
fecution; but that he would follow it up for the good
of the country ; and being afked if be did not tell
the lad's parents that if they would pay the money
loft, nod fol. he would drop the profecution, be ad-
mitted that be took no judicial Rep in this bufinefs
from the 26th September, when it occurred, till the
May following, leaving the matter open for the boy's
friends to come forward with fume propofal ; they
did not come forward, and he followed up the Flo.
fecution.

Charles Gardner, Clerk to Mr. Wright, fworn, but
his evidence was not interening.
The Court was of opinion, that the circumnance
of the prifoner's never having come forward to ac-
count for the bills, coupled with this relponfibility,
made out the charge ofembezzlement, unlcfs the pri-
foner could make out a clear cafe for his vindication.

The prifoner in his defence Rated, that on his going
to the honk of Gregory to preknt the bill for pay-
ment, he•was told that he was not at houle, but at a
haute in the neighbourhood. A man named Warner,
whom he met at Gregory's, preffed hits mock, and
at laft induced him to go to the houf,• where Gregory
was. He conduced him through a variety of narrow,
dark, and intricate turnings, and at length brought
him to a puhlic•houfe where Gregory was. He fat
I down by Gregory, and told him his but-inert. Gre-
gory importuned him to fit a while, and that he
would pay him the money. The prifoner repeatedly
objeiled to flaying, hut Gregory importuned, and
prevailed on him to drink, and the night being wet
and cold, he was induced fo to do, until be became
very much intoxicates. Ha then went out of the
bottle to go home with Gregory for the money, but
Gregory went and left him tn the ftreet. He wander-
ed II
about fame time, and at length fell againft fosse
wall, where he lay and fell aflcep, and did not wake
till two in the morning, when he found his pocket
picked of his pocket-bock, containing the bills, a blue'
money bag, and every thing dfe he had. In defpair
and stillraclion he wandeted about, and at length
((rayed into the held, where he (1: pt the remainder

Lord Ettrgoottooco funitned op the erklenee to
the Jury, who, however, acqUitted the prifoner upon
felony; and Mr. ALLAY, who had only the fame
evidence to offer, declined profecuting on the other
two .counts.
The following prifoners were tried and acquited on
Thuriday, viz.
t!;xabedi Puraff/, for flealinG 12 filver tea fpoons,
iin.l other articles, viz: a child's cap and two plates,
the property of Richard Roberts, on the 12th of Sept.
The wife of the profecutor hated, that the prifoner,
and a man with whom fhe cohabited, rented a room
in her houfe. She had only been nine days a lodger,
when the witnefs was putting afide the fpoons one
afternoon in the prcfence of the prifoner, the Paid fhe
was furprifed fhe put them in fuch an infecure place.
The witnels went out, leaving her child and the pri.
foner at home. Next morning (he miffed the fpoons.
Sufpeding the prifoner, fhe got an officer, who fearch-
ed her room ; he found the two plates in an earthen
difh, %licit the witnels had lent the prifoner, ant the
child's cap was dilcovercd behind a box on the floor.
No trace or vetlige of the fpoons was to be found.—
The officer corroborated the account of finding the
plates; they were not concealed, bpt open TO the
view of any perfon who might go iato the apaitmert.
The prifoner called two witnetfes, who gave her an
excellent chara.cr. _ _ . _ •

Lord Et.ttalsoaouo it remarked to the Jury, that
the evidence with regard to the fpoons had completely
failed ;—it was therefore their duty to conEne their.
attention to the plates.- Thc witnef. acknowledged
having lent the prifoner the earthen dill), and svithouf
refleCtion, it was it-aural the might help herfelf to the
plates merely as a los:I.-without-any intention of ;teal
ing. The cap which had 'Jecn found might have betp,l
conveyed into her apai tmint by accident : there was'
dired evidence refpeCling it.—Not Guilty.
George Purdic, a boy, very neatly dreti;rd, was tried
for dealing two filver table-fpuons, the property of
Thomas 'Wickings.
Mrs. Wicking. gated, that the and her hufband
lived in Well greet, Hackney, and that the prifoner's
father, who keeps a butter (hop in Shoretthel), was in
the habit of lupplying the family with that article.
On the aoth of Augug (he miffed a facer fpoon, and
afterwards the loft four more. In confequence or
thefe repeated loLres, Cufpicion fell on the boy who
generally brought the butter to the profecut or', huule.
On loring the lag fpoon, the witnefs repaired to the
honk of the prifonce, father, and he was fearched in
her pretence. He denied all knowledge of any fuels
at as that laid to his charge. She went again with'
an officer on the following Monday, and at the houfe
of Mr. Williams, a watchmaker, in Shoreditch, the
law the two fpoons. The prifoner, himfelf, took them
out of a drawer, and laid they belonged to the witnefs.
A hoy named a6erwoo:4 who appeared to be an
accomplice, laid that he went with the prifoner to
Y.'ic,kings's booth, but did not. go the pri-
foner,Farne out, hefaid he had found a (Isom, and
alke-Itthe while!, to fell it at Williams's. He did In,
and got half a riinea. He gave,Or prifoner all he
would take, namely. four Millings. He kept the re-'
mainder to himfelf.
An officer produced the fpoon found at Williams's.'
It was broken, and the cypher had hqcn taken out.—
Mrs. Wickings laid the coul,d mot (wear to it.
The Jury found the boy—Ndt Guilty. The Court
recommended to his father to take efpecial care of hi.
