they may be

tibnal favours, if not to wear than immediately, at least
with- the design of using them, when the cry throughout,
Spain shall be once more—ii The Constitution for ever !"
Down with the Monks 1" le Down with the serviles
and their alljee 1"--44 The English for ever !"
To think that the Court of Madrid will not partake of
those terrors, is to betray a yes: ignorance of that Court ;
at least, the Monarch has none of the qualities of a
martyr, and his Ministers have as little ambition to
figure in that way. They hate liberty and the whole
train of liberal ideas, it is true, with an intensity which
we despair of being able to describe; bat they have
not the least disposition to sacrifice either life or
limb to its gratification ; and even few of them would
brave the hardships of a wandering life, to escape the
searching light of truth. Such persons, therefore, as
think, that FiRDINAND and his advisers, will repel the
just demands of Great Britain, must either suppose
them mad, or they must be slightly touched in that way
themselves. If they ground their speculations upon
secret promises of support. and sympathy from the
French Government, there is obviously no reasoning
with men, who reject the clearest testimony, in order
to follow their own perverse suggestions. The French
Cabinet bas, in as formal manner as it is possible for
words to convey, pledged itself to make common cause
with this country in compelling Spain to keep the
peace towards her neighbour. If these repeated end
solemn promises be no guarantee, we can only say
that there is not the least selurity in engagements
contracted between one nation and another, and
that Treaties are nothing better than so much waste
paper. We bare a very different opinion of the honour
of the French Monarch and of the morality of his
Government; and should we, contrary to all expectation,
be deceived in this confidence, we should not be de.
ceived in the hopes that the powerof this country would
suffice to render such glaring treachery unavailing, as
to any purpose of materially injuring Great Britain or
her ally, whilst; to a asoral:certainty,, it would recoil
upon its authors with irresistible violence, apd drive'
them forth to wander again upon the face of the earth,
the unpitied victims of their own incurable folly and
senseless ambition..

mem of Counsel its this manse, the and of Chancery was crowded
to eseess lea( beers the Lord Chasedier took his sent en the bench.
The respective seldom enterd the Court with an knocense pile of
documentary evidence, and the small desk en the right of the
Chancellor was heaped with papers relative to the CROW.
Mr. Wellesley took his seat immediately behind his Counsel, Mr.
dart; end en the Chancellor liking his seat, a conversation again
dosed to the propriety of receiving farther evidence by alidavits.
The Lola CMANCILLOR, remarking ou the proceedings that had
ai taken place, said, with ryspeet to the 'Slavic made by
en the GA d February, his Lordship would nee
*Ow tiset perjury maid beineinteled against Mr. Welledey, with

=intimated that moihrther alidavits should be filed unless
kr them be did at mean to say that no mote would be
weseinary. In fact, that bided aidavits would be necessary, was

%relic% and Men. Mt" Tide feet was proved beyond all ones.
Non. His Lodi* serniend this case before hearing Counsel,
as if Mr. Hart is seam this down by further didavits, the
Court would net dam him from doing so.
Mr. HART did mat team to deny the fact. Mr. W had
two vitally impeatentiiiects in view. The first was that be
\see the cared hlsehlideen, and the second that be should satisfy
W Ladd} midi Oldie, that be had net been guilty of the Ms.
and miege with which be bad bets so unieundsdly
and also !het the calumnies se lavishly heaped en him were
imiersided. He (Mr. Hatt) hoped the ease would be fully
tallimilleomeshkration before his Lordship proceeded to givejudg-
milinomi that the new siblavits, sediervrere called, would be read
sememeentieely. It had been said that dui al davits Med embraced
new to
new and nude a fresh case : this be denied. The allidavits
weft snip answers to those previously Med, and made with a view
of ddet away the calumnies heaped on kis client.
The Leas Cu.:imams—l have so right to impute perjury to
Mr. Wellesley re account of the affidavit of the ith of February.
In fact, perjury cannot be made out from it.
Mr. Haat said, the Attorney General might rely on it that be
would not again interrupt bid farther than when he was about to
read *Meeks, to ask him fee the dates.
Mr. Wellesley here rose, and with strong feelings, called on his
Lordship t, give judgment at once. Twelve mouths had now
elapsed, and yet the Attorney General now dared to rise in kis
phee and mum a Gentleman and a man of Mower of perjury. He
called at once on the Attorney General to prove Idea guilty of per.
jury. He denied having had the work of which be had been ac-
cused, though he admitted its contents had been mated to him, the
mind*. of which be abhorred. ' In Goes name," sold
he cl relieve me from this agony, and instantly decide tie ass. I
demand it of your Lordship; and I pray you de me justice. Far
Oslo Alcune:yes sake give year judgment at once, and I will
abide by it, be what it may ; at all events give your decision sae
way or the ether."
The LORD Ounces-Loa—Mr. Wellesley, I will give judgment
as soon as I have heard Counsel.
Mr. Wellesity—As soon as you have heud Coonsel, my Lord !
The Lord Cnanceszoa--However I may feel respecting the
feelings of an English Gentleman, I shall do my duty se an English
Judge; and I wish to remark to you that propriety of conduct, as
well•as speech, is fitting this place.
Mr. Wellesley bore sat down.
The Arreasze HISRLAL then rose and proeseded to read the
didavits fired D. Barrett of the application, contending on each
point as it arose. The ease Is likely, from the nunterous mass of
evidence adduced, to last for medal days.

roads are, however, very heavy, and our null comb from
the South is considerably retarded. Yesterday we had no
Irish mall from, we presume, the severity of the storm. The
frost last night was pretty keen with a hazy atmosphere and
no wind. On Wednesday morning, and again on Thursday, we

The thanks of Parliament were twice 'voted to the
lateUmented Duke of York, for the high and invaluable
improvements his Royal Highness had effected in the
Army—first, on the conclusion of the twelvemonth's
peace in 1814; and secondly, on the final overthrow of
Bonaparte at Waterloo. •
WINDSOR. -;
The demonstrations of respect to the memory of his
lee Royal Highness the Duke of York have continued
unabated throughout the week. The preparations for
the reception of the Royal remain% having commenced
es Thursday in St. Geosge's Chapel, the celebration of
Divine Serve was discontinued in the choir. Since then,
the ritual of the Church has been performed in the
Library of St. George's College, a spacious apartmeot
in the inner cloisteri, the shelves of which are amply
furnished with a collection of the best classical and
theological writers; the chief of which are a gift'of the
Earl qt Ranelagb. Owing to the extraordinary prompti-
tude displayed in the execution of the works, the requw
site undertakings are in a considerable state of forward.'
oess. To such of our London Readers who are
unacquainted with the localities of the/place, it may be
wcessary to premise that the procession will enter this,
'Triable specimen of Gothic architecture at the south
iloor,pn entrance dear to the lovers of antiquity, from
its hatAisg been designed and constructed by Sir Re..
skald Bray, a Knight of the Garter, in the reign
4 Henry the Seventh, and who was equally distils-
tted for his good taste and bis munificence.—

ohichtisthe celebrated window; composed of upw arch of
80compartments of stained glass. A platform, already
completed, is formed from this spot into the choir, upon
an inch ned plane, to obviate the inconvenience of the two

the organ gallery. In the vouth aisle of the nave, a

calculated, without such aid, to throw the deepest shade

platfirms will be covered with black cloth; in fact,
whew we state, upon authority, that the preparations
are 41 be upon a scale of nearly equal grandeur with
thos4 of the obsequies of our late beloved Monarch, any
minute detail of the arranged ceremonial will be judged
perfectly unnecessary. In the choir, the beastifol
wroeght steel tomb of. Edward IV. has been boarded
up, to preserve it from any casual injury, and seats have
beeti erected upon each side of the altar, which will be
occupied upon the night of the funeral by the Poor and
Navid Knights of Windsor.
Many years ago, a young Gentleman, who had no
othet recommendation than an excellent character, gen-
teel .demeanour, and a classical 'education. was pre-
*mood through the interest of the Duke-of York with a
commission in a regiment of the Line. His Royal High-
ness happened to be on a Visit near the placer where the
regiment was qoarteted, • and meeting his proteite one
Jay, tie enquired most kiticilf how he liked the army?
:cc. the young Officer said, that he was highly delighted,
but he thought that he was not noticed sufficiently by
his brother Officers, and this he attributed to his lack of
mass, to join them in their dashing entertainments.—
The next morning the Doke of York attended the pa
rade, and went up to the young Gentleman, and taking
bold of his arm, walked up and down two or three
times in front of the regiment. We scarcely need add,
that the arm on which Royalty hall leaned, was highly
courted ever afterwards.
01'61 lamented Duke of Yost it has been justly
said, that be never forgot a friend : the following ante•
dote front Oundle is aa illustration of tho.tetentiveness
of his memory as well as the goodness of Ms heart.—
Some years ago his Royal Highness being on.,a visit at
the Earl of Wastuoaeransn's seat in that neighbour-
hood, a basket of fine figs was sent to Apethorpe by a
Gentleman at Oundle, who knew that the Noble Earl
had not any in his gardens. The messenger was a helper
in the stables of the Gentleman at Goodie, and had
formerly been a dragoon in the army in France; com-
manded by the Duke of Yong. On his near approach
to Apethorpe House, the Duke passed him in his car-
riage; his Royal Highness immediately recognised
him, stopped his carriage, and said. " I know you, my
man." " Yes," said the old soldier, " and 1 know your
Royal Highness; I was your orderly when I was in the
Regiment, fighting under you in France." " Good
fellow,' added the Duke, ," I remember you; call on
ine to-morrow." Thelast time his Royal-Highness. had
seen him was a great many years befote ; the man had
been wounded In several, places, and when be got
home was discharged on a pension. The veteran, faith-
ful to the appointment, called on the Duke next day at ,
Apethorpe, and was at first refused by the footmen,
who were astonished at his demand of seeing the Royal
waiter; but he knew too well the value of obedience to
orders, and at length succeeded in his object. The
Commander.inaChief received him with kindness as an
yid companion in arms, gave him three guineas, and
by his condtscending manner delighted poor W csd•
cock, who is still living in °midi; where he feelingly
relates this anecdote._ ;

'Highness was, frequently attended. by Junes Hadfield,
then a private in the 15th Regiment of Light Horse, as
his orderly dragoon. This individualcat one time, Mid
the land fortune to save the Duke's life—or, at any
tate, to prevent his beirtg taltn prisoner, by bringing
him timely intelligence of the enemy surrounding that
part of the 'Sufi with which he was reconnoitring,
at some distance from the main body of the 'army.
Hadfield always spoke in the highest terms of the
Duke's courage and intrepidity. Ever accu►tomed to
expose his person to the hottest fire, receiving and
dispatching his orders in- pencil notes with the utmost
coolness, while cannon balls and even musketry mowed
down Offic.ers and privates at his right and left.—
Amongst other exploits, Hadfield values himself upon
having had the honour of di.xing with his Royal Mesas;
and upon his audience expressing some scepticism
specting the probability of a Royal Duke admitting a
private dragoon to his dinner party, Hadfield protested
his assertion to be strictly true, and explained himself in

the manner following : si Whilst the , army was, ma•
miming before the enemy, and in sight of the French
near Tournay, the Duke baked late in the after-
noon; his mules and packhorses laden with provi-
sions were ordered up, and his Royal Highness
and Staff, dismounting from their horses, sat down on
the ground, which happened to be a turnip field, and
devoured their viands ravenously. I pulled vp some
turnips, and sitting but a few yards•distant from the
Commander-in-Chief, under the canopy of Heaven, thus

w ~ •^

satisfied the cravings of nature with the;e. nut: itious roots,
drank success to his Majesty's arms in the hearing of
the Duke, whilst all our horses were grazing. Thus
certainly no one can doubt my having dined, in every
sense of the word, with the Duke of York, though only
in the humble capacity of orderly dragoon."—During
the retreat of the army, poor Hadfield, whilst endea-
vourinF to cut his way through a detachment of the
enemy s horse, to.carry some intelligence to the Doke
of York, was overpowered, severely wounded, and
takes, prisoner. Upon being taken to the hospital at
Lisle, he overheard the French surgeons declare, that it
would not be worth while to dress the wounds in his
head and face, as he could not survive half an hour;
however, by his youth and good constitution, and the
attention subsequentlf paid him, he recovered, and after
suffering unspeakable hardships in 1796, found his nay
back to England, after be had been reported as dead in
the regimental retut.us a twelvemonth before among the
killed and wounded. Covered with scars and lamed in
his lift arm, be was discharged from his Regiment with
no other provision than fourpence a day pension.—
Crippled as he was, he returned to his former trade as
• .an operative silversmith, and when, on the 15th of May,
'lBOO, frenoy or despair prompted him to fire a pistol at
his late Majeity, King George 111. and he was instantly
taken into custody; the Duke of York saw and immedi-
ately•'-recognised ties litihe examination at Bow-street,
or at the Secretary of State's) Office, at Whitehall, and
addrissed him in these words—" Ah! Hadfield ! Had-
. .

eldl 'ls it possible? Is it you?" and added in his
usual hurried manner, " What made you shoot at my
,father I Do you bear me . any ill will," &c. " None,
in the least," was the reply. Mr. Pitt and the Privy
Council examined Hadfield on that very same night,
and committed him to Coldliath .Fields Prison.—
During the examination, Hadfield counted the Members
mf the Privy Council, and when asked why, he cins-
lared himself to Cumin before Pontius Pilate and the
Pharisees? His attempt was at first supposed to bit•
connected with some machinations of the Corresponding
Society with Jacobins, and other political discon-
tentment—a suspicion which proved totally destitute of
foundation. He was tried shortly afterwards under a
Special Commission by Lord Kenyon, at Westminster,
when the late Lord Ersl.ine defended him at the expense
of the Crown, and obtained a verdict of Not Guilty on
the Plea of Insanity. His Royal Highness the late
Duke of York sat on the Bench, and bore witness to
Hadfield's good conduct, loyalty, and bravery as a
soldier ; and as soon as the Duke made his appearance in
Court, the prisoner at the bar broke out in cheers and
huzzas, and was with difficulty restrained to observe.

mined to Newgate. As there existed no law. for the deo
tenrion of persons acquitted, Mr. Pitt brought in a Bill
Stat. 39 and 40 Geo. 111. ch. 96, authorizing the doe
tendon of Criminal Lunatics during his Majesty's
pleasure, under a retrospective operation 'of which
ex post -fade enactment, Hadfield was transported,
from Newgate to Old Bethlem in Moorfields, chained
to his bed-post for many months, effected his
escape, was retaken at Deal on his way to France,
from whence he had the imprudence to write to his
wife for money, who, for a pecuniary reward,'
covered his retreat to the Secretary of State. Old
Bethlem not being deeMed sufficiently secure for his
sale custody,'•he was, in - 1802 or 1803, again re-
moved back to Newgate; with an allowance of about
a hundred pounds • per annum, until the criminal
wing annexed to New Bethlem in St. George's Fields
was completed, whither he was then transferred in
November, 1816. In March, 1817, his Royal High-
ness visited Hadfield in his new habitation. The
prisoner was quite overpowered and moved to tears at
this act of condescension. The Royal Duke himself
seemed to be much affected, and made some promise of
his powerful intercession for his release,wbich must have
been thwarted in another quarter, as poor Hadfield did
not benefit by this promise of Princely patronage, which
sufficed, however, to restore another prisoner, of the.'
name of 'Newcomb, formerly his Royal Highness's'
bootmaker, but then a peilect idiot, to his liberty. In
the meantime it is quite cleat that the late Duke
did not forget his quondam orderly-dragoon, as the
Duchess of York shortly afterwardi visited him in
his confinement; and as his Royal Highness the
Duke of Sussex goes to see him once or twice every
year, and never leaves him without some little present,
and the assurance of his regret to be unable to ptoture
the liberation of so conversable and well behaved a
man, who, in case of the late Duke ever ascending the
throne of these leak* would have stood a very good
'chance of recovering hii freedom by an act of Royal
cletnency,"as the late Commander in Chief would not
have been afraid of his old orderly ever being again so
disorderly as to injure himselfer his subjects, for exclu-
,ive of his tetilser being touted, arid perhaps irritated,
by 27 long years of imps isoument, Hadfield. appears to
be pet Wily rational.

The only:account we have seen of the funeral honours

which was laid a complete suit of armour, gilt, with a '

of the Order of the Garter about the neck,with the George

The said three rooms were adorned with a great num-
ber of scutcheons, of several sorts, with cyphers and
badges interspersed, and with silver sconces and large
silver candlesticks, having wax tapers burning in them.

adorned in the like manner, for the Nobility and others,
who were invited to the funeral."

A very crowded audience last, night witnessed Mr.
KEAY'S teprewatation of Richard the Third. Re per-
formed the character With his accustomed force, and
received all the approbation which his efforts deserved.
The galleries were very noisy. It is a great pity that
some effectual means (without trenching on the fair
liberty of the subject) cannot be devised for keeping the
denizens of those higher regions within something like
the pale of order.
COVENT-GARDEN.
The Tragedy of King..l•An was performed at Covent-
garden Theatre last night; and a Miss HARORAVE
appeared in the character of Constance. This Lady
has acquired considerable reputation by her per.
formances at the Exeter and Plymouth Theatres,
and her entrance las: night was welcomed with loud
applause. At first she appeared to lose her self-posses-
sion, but she gradully recovered, and had a fair oppor-
I Poky for the exercise of her powers. Much allowance,
however, must in such cases be made for the novelty and
anxiety of the situation; and it is but fair to hope that
faults will be diminished, and beauties heightened, by
further ',Attlee. Miss HARGRAVE Is of the middle
stature; her figure is slender; and her face not alto-
gether inexpressive. Miss HARGRAVE'S voice is suffi-
ciently powerful, and by no means destitute of variety.
her delivery she is deliberate, in her action trough
berrassed, and her deportment altogether evinces a free-1
stem irons restraint, which proves that she is familiar
with the stage. The rest of the tragedy was cast with
all the strength of Covent-garden. Mr. YOUNG, in King
Jeka, with Mr. C. KIMBLE in Faukonbridge, and Mr.
WARD'S, in Hubert, displayed their usual ability. The,
most curious circumstance about the play was the scene{
in the third ace before the gates of Angiers, in which
the Pope's Legate arrives from Rome, and breaks the
newly made league between France and England. King
John's defiance to the Pope, and his declaration, that

" Though you, and all the Kings of Christendom,

" Dreading the curse that mpney may buy out,;
" And by the merit of vile geld, dross, dust,
" Purchase corrupted pardon of a man
" Who in that sale seUs pardon from himself,"
Were received with loud and reiterated rounds of applause; ma
the threatening reply of the Legate—
" Then, by the lawful power that I have •

" And meritorious shall that band be odsfi,

all parts of the Theatre.

It is confidently reported that the Government •of
Buenos Ayres has made a direct and pressing appli-
cation to our Cabinet, to interfere, by mediatory
means, for the purpose of putting an end to the pre-
sent war waging with Brazil, and that an Envoy,
charged with this special commission,• is to sail for
Rio de Janeiro in the next packet.
Within the last three days English and foreign mes-
sengers have been constantly crossing an the way
between London and Paris. From their anxiety for
dispatch, we judge they are bearers of docansents of
the greatest importance. On Thursday a French mes-
senger arrived at Dover after the departure of the
packets, and immediately went across in an open boat;
the boat returned soon after with two other *messen-
gers, which she landed at Broaduairs, the first place
she could make. Oa Friday, a Russian messenger
arrived at the Russian Consuls (H. Latham, Esq.)
and was also sent over immediately in an open boat.

. Saturday morning, as some draymen, in the employ,
of Messes. Truman, Hanbury, and Buxton, were taking
out of the beer cellar of Mr. Float, the Icing' a Head
Inn, Sherborn-lane, Lombard-street, empty butts, the
.horse to which the rope and hook were attached; in the
act of being backed by one of the men, fell into the
Aellar, a depth of ten feet. The cries of the poor
animallin falling were dreadful; the man who was below
fortunately jumped out of the way, or he must have
inevitably •been crushed to death. The poor animal,
after remaining for some time in this situation, was got
out by the pavers removing the pavement, and was
gradually raised up, by a number of trusses of straw
beingahrewn under him, without any damage done to
him, except a few cuts on his legs-from some broken
bottles, and was immediately taken home.
A melancholy accident occurred at Bishop's Stortford
on Sunday last. As two young women, sisters, of the
name. of Camp, were on their way to evening service at
the parish church, and near the water's edge, the wind
then blowing a hurricane, they were both precipitated
into the stream by a sudden gest, and the youngest (14
years of age) unfortunately drowned. The eldest with
difficulty of out, and instantly gave the alarm. It was,
however, Tull half an hour before the-body of the unfor-
tunate girl could be found, it having flOated down the
stream to a considerable distaike, and was then taken
out lifeless. Every assistance was given to restore ani-
mation, gut in vain.—County Chronicle.
The basis...as• transacted in the Cotton Market at
Liverpool, last week, was rather limited ; but our letters
from Manchester state. the • *bole of the looms in that

and Acquitted Moore.

Wet. a".:ocks Johnson, charged with stealing a horse
value 501. was pot to the bar, when he applied to the
Court to have his trial put off until next Sessions, °wins
to a principal witness being a4ent. without whose testr-
many he could not enter upon his defence.
The COWLS granted the application, upon the prisoner Mpg an
affidavit of the fact.

Mary Cockhead, aged 34. was indicted for stealing
divers articles of plate, Sec. value 301. and upwards,the
property of John Housman, her muter.
The prisoner, is her defence, said, that she pledged the pmpenr
for the support of her master's house; but this statement was flatly
cootradicted. _ _ _

The Loan Curer BARON summed up and told the.
Jury that the capital part of the indictment must be
abandoned ; for although the stolen property was 01.
great value, there was no proof that 40s. worth was,
taken away at one time.
Verdict—Guilty of stealing under the value of On
Daxiel Davies, a young man a letter carrier, was
indicted for secreting a letter, which came, into his poi-,
session in the course of his duty, and which tette:cook
tamed a 104 and a 51. promissory note, payable to beater
There was a number of counts in the indictment vary.-
ing the form of charge.
Mr. Guosev said, he was instructed by his Majesty'
Attorney-General to attend there to state the caw
I against the prisoner. The charge was, that he had. in
the course of his duty. secreted a letter, which wassail
from Leicester by a Mr. Payne to a Mr. Poole, Bird-
-11 cage-walk, Hackney, and which letter contained the
notes in question.
The prisoner had been admitted by the Magistrates
.to bail, and be had this morning surrrodered himself to
take his trial. He should prove that the letter was put
into the Pust-office at Leicester, on the 22d of November,
and that the bag arrived safe in London—that the said
notes were presented at the Bankers for payment on the
2sd, and were paid; but whether to the prisoner,or any
other person, he should not be able to substantiate, but
he should prove, that the prisoner had signed a book,
acknowledging the receipt tathe letter at the Twopenny
Post-office, by him for delivery, and also that he had.
on the very same day, accounted for the postage thereof.
On these facts the Jury would have to decide upon the
guilt or innocence of the prisoner.
Mr. BOLLAND and Mr. SHIPPIRD called witnesses in
support of the case, from whom was elicited the facts
as stated. On the letter being missed, the prisoner was
sent for, and interrogated by one of the Presidents of.
the Post Office, and asked if he had 504 a letter so di-
rected? to which he answered that Bird cage Walk was•
not in his delivery. He was repeatedly questioned as
whether he had such a letter or not? to which he teplied
No I The book was then 'hewn to him, when he said he'
did not know that he signed the bok.k, and he must
have signed it by mistake.
The prisoner put in a written defence, but Mr. As
DREWI stopped its beingo read. The prisoner thensakl,..
that there had been letters put into wrong divisions,
containing notes, and had found their way to the bankers
for payment, although the letter never reached its pro-
per destination.
A number of witnesses gave the prisoner a good character.
The Crow Balton charged the Jury.

Robert Young, aged 34, was charged with bur-
glarioosly breaking and entering the dwelling house of
Thomas Bernal. of Feltham, and stealing two guns, three
great coats, two snuff-boxes, fourteen silver spoons, a .
lit=perty.—Guilty—Deeth.
Buorsekl, a soldier belonging to the 15th
Light Dragoons, was charged with stealing on the 13th
of December, a gelding, the property of his Majesty.
The facts of the case were :—The prisoner was on the
day in question very much intoxicated, and mounted
the horse in question, with which he proceeded on
road to Hastings, where his family and friends resided.
-On the way, however, he left the horse at an Inn,
where it remained far seven days, when the prisoner
was taken into custody. He then confessed where he
had left the horse, but denied any felonious intention
with respect to the stealing of it, intending to have re-
timed with it as soon as, his freak was out.
The Lbws Cram BARON, in summing up the evi-
ewe to the Jury, said, it must be .proved, to fully
Ilming the charge to the prisoner, that he had taken the
Bono with a view of selling it and converting the pro-
duce to his own use. If this was not done, it would be
the duty of the Jury to find him Not Guilty, which
was accordingly done.
Roiert Jelf, an unfortenate man, who stands charged
on no less than five distinct indictments, for embezzling
divers monies, the property of Charles Brooke and
others, his employers, was again put to the Bar to plead,
having on Saturday night pleaded Mt Guiky to each
