The prisoner(whose language and address proved
ti at he had been well educ rated) at once admitted his
guilt, but aired that he had been driven to it by want
and hunger. Ile sated that he was born at Liverpool,
his father, who was a surgeon, went with his tamily to
reside at St. Petersburgb when he (the pi-wine') was
only ten years of age. A ter she death of his fatter, he
was taken into the lama) of a Itus-ian General, with
whom he served oral Ter the Wining of Moscow, when
his patron died. and he was again thrown destitute on the
world. He subsequently filled vari.ius situatiors, and at
length being seized with the desire natural to all men,
of visiting the land of his birth, he came I.) England,
about 1S months ago. Having tailed in obtaining any
situation, he «as about to getout to Russia, when he
was overtaken by a typhus fever, whch laid him up on
a sick bed, until long after the vessel, in which he was
to have gone, had sailed, and the Baltic became inac-
cessible through the !lost. Bving entirely destitute, be
made his way to London, and, on his arrival, wrote a
letter to CoUr.t Lieven, the Russian Ambassador, who
was related to his patron's wife, and who; he believed,
would have. afforded him some temporary assistance.
On offering his letter to a servant at the Count's resi-
dence, the pampered lacquay, who opened the door, re-
fused to receive it, saying he knew it to be nothing more
than a begging letter, with which 1 e would have no.
thing to do. He orderid him (the prisoner) to move off
on pain of being given into custody of the Stieetkeeper ;
and thus was he shut out from all hope. He handed
she letter irtended for Count Lieven for the inspection
of the Court.
The Rscoatora, on hooking at it, inquired if it was
written in Sclavonic.

Ihe prisoner said-no, bat in Russian ;he was master
of almost all the Corlinental languages.
The RSCORDZIt summed up the evidence, and the
July found the prisoner Gaily, but recommended him
to mercy.
The RICORDIER said his story was a lamentablione.
It should be inquired into, and if found true, the cle.
mency of the COort should be eztended towards him.
Count Lieven should be applied to, and perhaps he
would cause him to be lent to Russia.
