Observer Newspaper, for a libel. The article com-
plained of purported to contain an account of certain
proceedings in the Insolvent Debtors. Court, upon
the discharge of a person named Carter, and was
headed, " Shameful conduct of an Attorney." • The
defendant's plea was, that the narrative in question
was a true one ; and, upon the trial of that action, a
verdict was found in his favour; an application was
afterwards made to set aside that verdict, on the
round that the plea of justification was net good in
.jaw; and the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE now delivered
the opinion of the Court. Whether it was or was
not legal to publish the proceedings of a Court of
Justice, when those proceedings contained defamatory
matter, was a question which did not arise in the pre-
sent case, and a question upon which their Lord-
ships did nbt mean to pronounce any decision. The
writer, in the case before the Court, had not confined
himself to an account of that which actually took
place; but had put forth an accusation at the head
of his narrative, imputing " shameful conduct" m
one of the parties. The Court was, therefore, of opi-
nion that the plea of justification was bad in law, and
that a verdict musthe entered for the plaintiff.

rented to a verdict of Guilty at the last Guildhall Sit-
tings, upon an indictment, at the instance of the So-
ciety for the Sappression of Vice, for publishing
.an
obscene libel, defendant was brought up to receive
the judgment of the Court.
Mr. BARCY addressed the Court in mitigation of
punishment, and the defendant was sentenced to one
year's imprisonment in Coldbath-fields House of
Correction, and at the end of that time to enter into
his personal recognizance in the sum of £5O, to be
ofgood behaviour for three years.

the evidence reported by Mr. Baron Gwatiow,_who
tried the cause at the last Essex Assizes.

The CHAIRMAN announced that he and the former
Monarch. • Chairman had waited on his Majesty with the Ads
dress of Condolence on the demise of his late Ma-
jesty, and of Congratulation on his present Majesty's
Accession to the Throne, which he had received most
graciously.
On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, the Proprietors
agreed to the Resolution of the Court of Directors,.
of the 19th instant, recommending a Dividend of 51
per cent. on thetompany's capital stock, for the hall
year commencing on the sth of January last, and
ending on the stk of July next.
Mr. HOWARTH presented the Report of the Com-
mittee of By-Laws, which announced the intention of
the Committee to propose a new regulation for the
security of the Company's seal, and at the same time
affording additional facilities for the trausastion of
Ibusiness.
The Gentlemen composing the Committee of By-
Laws were re-elected for the ensuing year.
On the motion of Mr. R. Jacxsost, seconded by
Mr. Hume, the Thanks of the Court were giien to
the Committee of By-Laws, for their zeal and atten-
tion during the last year.
The CHAIRMAN stated, that he hod received a let-
ter from Viscount Sidmouth, announcing that his
Majesty had been graciously pleased to accept the
Company's offer, to raise, at their expense, a Corps of
Volunteers. He also stated, that a Bill was then us
progress through the House of Commons to enable-
the Company to defray the expense of the said Corps
of Volunteers.
The CHAIRMAN next annqunced, that the pensioi
of £1,500 per annum granted -to Sit 6. Barlow had
received the sanction of the Board of COntroul, and
that a letter, thanking the Cismpatiy for their libe-
-Irality, had been addressed by Sir G. Barlow to the
IChairman and Deputy.
The CHAIRMAN then apprised the Court of the re-
ceipt of two letters from die Marquis of Hastings,
returning thanks to the Company for their approba-
tion of his conduct, and for the splendid liberality
which they had been pleased to manifest towards him.
The CHAIRMAN also informed the Court, that the
explanatory papers relative to the execution of the
Killedar of Talneir were now laid on the table.
Mr. 11. JACKSON deprecated any discussion on these
papers at present, as the subject had been taken up
by the House of Coynmons.
Mr. Hosts was anxious to do justice to the charac-
ter of Lieutenant Sutherland, of the Bombay service,
whom he had mentioned when the case of Sir. Thos.
Hislop was under discussion. He (Mr. Hume) had
been led to believe, from a statement hi the Bombay
Paper, that Lieutenant Sutherland, during the exist-1
ence of hostilities, had captured two individuals,
and, without farther ceremony, hanged them up. He
had received a letter from that Gentleman, from
which he found that the statement was incorrect.
Lieutenant Sutherland had taken two individuals, at
the head of a marauding party, but so far from
causing their execution, he gave them up to the
learn's Government, by whom they were condemned
to die, some months after Lieutenant Sutherland had
left that station, for previous acts of plunder.
Mr. HUMS begged to call the attention of the
Court to two or three facts which had suggested
themselves to him, The first observation was with
respect to the insufficiency. of European Officers

there were, not more than six European (.06cers to

impqrtanee,. and required immediate investigation,
and it was highly desirable, that means should be
adopted to keep up' a regular number of these Offi-
cers. The next pqmt, and perhaps the more impor-
tant one, was that with respect to the education of
the youths sent out to Isidia, He wished peculiarly
to press upon the Court the necessity of paying more
attention to the study of the Persian and Hindostan
lauguages. The only language now taught with
effect was that of Bengal, and it was found that it
'was, comparatively speaking, of little use in India.
it was from a want of knowledge in the. Hindostan
language that the unfortunate misunderstanding oc-
curred at Talneir.
I Mr. It—Jamtacx concurred in the observations of
the Honourable Proprietor, but declined at that ma;
meat entering at length into the subject. His opi-1
Mons on this question were already well know* ,
The Court then adjourned.

XOTZEBUE gives a striking description of the 49061
of governing by the Sp l System. Speakiug of Abe
reign of the Emperor PAUL, he says—" A set Of
Kicked men, abusing the confidence of a Monarch
whose heart was prone to kindness and benevolence,
alarmed him continually with phantoms that did not
exist ; nay, the existence of which they themselves did
not believe. Every night I went to bed a prey to the
most gloomy forebodings; the least noise in the street,
a carriage that stopped not far' from my house, made
me start. In the morning I awoke to new cares, and
thought only of avoiding the impending dangers of
the-day. I watched with the most careful attention
aver every article of my dress, and over the manner
Of wearing it; I found myself under the necessity of
paying my court to women of doubtful reeutation,
and men of shallow understanding. I was forced
to put up with the overbearing insolence of an ig-
norant ballet master, the husband of Madame CHZ•
•vattaa. On the representation of any new piece,
I waited in fear and trembling whether the ever-
watchful police, or the secret Inquisition would detect
in it any involuntary unpremeditated offence. I'
could but rarely disbinthen my sorrows in the bosom
of a friend ; walls had ears, and the brother could
no 'longer trust the brother. -No reading could
-shorten the disastrous time, for every book was pro-.
hibited. I was-even obliged to renounce the use of
my pen ; I durst not commit any of my thoughts
to paper; I did not know how suddenly I might be,
searched, and my writings examined. The most
harmless walk could not be considered as a recrea-
tion; you generally n.et with unfortunate people
that were led to prison, and sometimes even to the
barbarous punishment of the knout."

dlesex, will commence on Monday. .

POtritsiiiiitis.—Yesterday Mr. Harding, printer,
Bossite Temple-bar; the Overseers of the
.parish'of *St. CleMent Danes, and. the Keeper of 'the
parish fire-engine, attended at Hatton-garden Office,
to adjust a dispute as follows :--One morning, about
three weeks ago, there was an alarm of fire at the
bonse of Mr. Harding ; the parish engine and several
firemen attended ; after which the engine-keeper, &c.
cattle to this Office, made affidavit of the fact, and
obtained an order from the Magistrates on the Church-
wardens to pay them the accustomed reward for
their attendance. The present was an appeal. from
Mr. Harding against the payment of the reward, on
the ground that there was no fire whatever, and that
it was only a false alarm. It appeared from the
evidence, that there was no fire lighted in the house
at the time ; it was at an early hour in the morning,
.the maid was up, and had lit some shavings under
the copper. The wash-house was in front of the
house, and the flue of the copper went into the par-
lour chimney ; the copper flue being stopped, the fire
would not burn, and the smoke went out at the window,
which was broken, and was the cause of the alarm.—
After the firemen came, a chimney-sweep was pro-
cured, who proved the flue was stopped ; the chim-
ney was quite cold, and no appearance of fire.—
Magistrate —" From your own evidence it. appears
'there was sufficient cause fur_ alarm. GOD Corbid
that firemen, who area 'useful body of men, shouldl
wait till they- actually see a _fire break out, for the.
sake of the reward. The earlier they are encouraged
to attend the better. if Mr. Harding's chimney had
liecifclean, this would not hate occurred. -The Eire-
, toga are entitled wile reward." •

A serious affray took place on Friday night (the
16th inst.) on the coast betweeq Herne Bay and Re-,
culver, between 'a party of, smugglers, who had
come down from the interior, and. Lieut. Dosma..ts
and a detachment of the seamen employed in the
coast blockade, stationed at l3ishopstone, in which
two of the former were vet)? ;severely wounded, but,
escaped; a Midshipman and several seamen were also
wounded. Pistols were discharged on both sides.
