AFRICAN LXPEDI7

THE LATE CAP FAIN CAMPBELL.
This valuable uffi.:er. from whose talents, seal, and
ensi rot acquirements, much was to have been ex. -
pected, fella saciitice to the severity of a tiopicali
clint.ue, and to the fatigue, anxiety, and privation to ""
which the whole of his party had for some time been
expos. J. The expedition was ihtendvd in some degree,
to trace the route of the lamented Park, proceeding by
the shortest course from the coast, across the mound
tains of Emig, and southward a the Moorish pop&
lations, to the upper part of the Niger ; and descend•
ing that river to form a junction with the maritime
expedition which had previously entered the Congo.
The command had originally been intrusted to Major
Peddie, an Officer of rank ai,cl enterprise, but who
unfortunately fell ill, and died on the Ist of January
1817, ere the party left the river Nunez—and about
the same time the expedition lost a valuable Offiere
n Lieutenant Macrae, who had joined only a few
days. Captain Campbell after wards proceeded by
land about 150 miles farther into the interior, to the
river Panyetta. and Rear the mountains. The King
of Teemba. in whose territories they were, was thou at
war with the Tendoo country, and declined granting
permission for thee,. to pre. ceed farther, at least, until
the end of the campaign. In the mean time, the
rainy s2ason set in, and Captain Campbell, having
lost many uf his companions, and the greater part of
his beasts of burthen, found it equally impossible to
remain or to proceed. He resolved, therefore, to re.
trace his steps to the coast, and, 41ter undergoirg
great privations, arrived at K ikundy on the Bth t f
June, and collected vessels for transporting his men
to Sierra Leone, until the expedition should be re.
fitted, and a more favourable opportunity should per-
mit its prosecution. He was not, however, destined
to fulfil this intention. The severity of his sufferings
had reduced his frame to a state of extreme debility,
and the disappointment of his hopes had deeply
preyed upon his mind. On the 10th of June be was
taken ill and confined to bed, and on the 13th he ear
pie. J.—Captain Campbell was a native of Caithness.
He resided for many years in Dublin, of which city
an excellent map, from actual survey, was made by
him. To his friends he was endeared by the mild.
nets of his manners, and unassuming merits—and
from the pains he had taken to qualify himself in
every way for the task he :ad undertaken, they ton.
fidently looked forward to his distinguishing himself
in the elucidation of African zieography.

FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUiAI.B, NOVEMBER C 9.
We have the toll.awing from Ostend, of the 2Gth
instant :—" Mr. Las Casas, the friend and historian
of Bonaparte, arrived here last Sunday by the packet
boat, accompanied by his son. Mr. Las Casas, it is
well known, followed the Ex-Emperor in his exile;
but was suddenly obii.4ed to leave St. Helena, and
was conveyed "to the Cape of Go Elope, whence he
is just arrived. H. contradicts all the anecdotes that
have keen circulated respecting the fancies and ill.
humour of Bonaparte; but lie agrees in saying.that

CONTINENTAL MAILS.

Last night at a late hour a Mail arrived from Flan.
dm, from which we have given a few extracts in
another column ; and this morning a Dutch Mail
arrived, and German Papers to a late date.
Count Gourz, with whom the Prince of ORANGE
lately had a dispute which led to a difference with
the KING his father, is, it is said, about to retire
from his office, that of Commissary of War.
Their Majesties of AUSTRIA, after a four months
tour through the Imperial territories, returned to
Vienna en the 19th alt.

LAs CASA* BONAPARTE'S Military Secretary, who
accompanied his fallen master to St. Helena, who
reached Ostend on the 22d ult. arrived at Brussels
on the '27th, whence he has gone for Aix-la Chapelle.
We may expect from him some particulars respect-
ing the conduct of the fallen EmPErtou in his exile.
The Austrian Commander of the contingent in
Alsace is exerting himself to get the troops into gar-
ris,in before winter, and already the cavalry are un-
der ci•ver. Prussia is following a similar plan, but
with less promptitude.

The King WURTEMEERG has just issued an Or-
dinance, by one clause of which he has for ever abo-
lished the vassalage of the peasantry. Thus it is
that the disputes between Kings and the higher Or-
ders sooner or later lead to the amelioration of the
lower classes, who are too often considered more in
he light of beasts of burden than, as they ought to
be, the efficient strength of a State. The richer in-
habitants continue to refuse payment of the contribu-
tions, on the principle that by the antieut Constitu-
tion the KING has no right to impose taxes without
the concurrence of the States. In a word, the dif-
ferences are far from being terminated, and it stilt
remains to be seen whether the Kl%u can find sup-
plies for the public expenses without the aid of the
national representatives—the very question that led
our first CHARLES to the scaffold, and caused the ab-
dication of JAMES.

Among the subjoined extracts will be found some
other articles deserving attention :

COBOURG, NOVEMBER IG.

the death of the Princess Chatlotte, which arrived

waLiti JGDOPs.

Mr. PONSONBY notite., that no Tuesday,
the '22d of April, he would move to bring in d Bill
to extend the Act of Queen Anne for the prevention
of persons sitting its Parliament, who held offices
during the pleasure of the Crown, to those Officers
commonly called Welsh Judges.
The Right Hon. Gentleman then postponed, from
the 14th April till the 21st of that month, the second
reading of his Bill fur continuing certain otlices on
the demise of the Crown.

SAVING SANK& •
Mr. BROUGHAM presented a Petition from the
managers and other persons concerned in the Provi-
dent Institution, established in the Parish of Saint
Paul's, Covent-garden, stating that that Institution
had been established fa a year—that it differed from
the Saving Banks about to be sanctioned by the Bill
in progress through that House in several important
particulars, and that its success had been great—that
during the first year there were 270 depositors. and
that the sums deposited amounted to above aItXX),
of which only about 459 d had been drawn out dur-
ing the twelvemonth—that it had infused into the
younger classes of inhabitants a spirit of emulation
to increase the amount of their deposits—that the
whole establishment was managed on a system which
cost only /HS per annum that the Petitioners feared
that the eff,ct of the Bill now before the House
would be diametrically opposite to what was intend-
ed, and they therefore humbly suggested to the
• linos?, that it would be pauper to examine witnesses
as to the mode of management of this Institution,
and its effects, before proceeding to pass the Bill.
The Petition was then brought up, read, and or-
dered to lie on the table.

On the motion of Sir C. MONCK, there was or-
dered to be laid before the House, an Account of the
number of four-wheeled and two-wheeled Carriages
fur which Assessed Taxes were paid in Ireland, dur-
ing the years 1815 and 1816. Also an account of
th. quantity of Wines imported into Ireland during
these years.
On the motion of Mr. BENNETT, there was
ordered to be laid before the House, a Return of the
nature and date of the different appointments held
by Mr. Herries, miler his Majesty, and the emolu-
ments and salaries of bis several appointments.

PEEKE V. FOREST.

This was an action against the defendant, the Mas-
ter of the Eliza merchant ship, of London, to re-
cover 183.5 penalty on the Pilot Act, for refusing to
take a pilot on board off Dungene,s.
W. Smith, a pilot, stated, that the vessel of which
the defendant was master. appeared off Durgen,:ss
without the usual stnal flying for a pilot, which b!•
law she ought to fotve. He bring on board his pilot
! beat, made up to her, mkt inquired if he had a ri:G!
on board ? to which he answered no, and he wanted
none, and retud to lay to. Thew itness„ however,
c3ntinueil to follow him until they got to the west-
ward of Dover. and there the dele;:dant took hin:
on board, and he piloted him into the aswtis. He
however re:used to pay for any more pilotage than
from the place where the plot got on hoard. ThL:
deteace set up was, that it blew a heavy gale, and
that the vessel could MA bring to, acd was a dangei
of being blown over to the coast of France. Thi•.
however, the plot denied, and it was agreed that

MARCH 19 --SOUTI:EY v. vir.tiwelnD AN:r, co.

The LOADCHANCF.I.I.OR gave judgment if is i../.ly ii
the above impoi cant cause. His Lordship had reed
over the milidavits which had been filed, particularly
those of Messrs. Southey and Ridgway, in neither el
which was it stated from what cause the Poem had
not been published at the time the parti;:s.v. ere in
tteaty respecting it. How the copy had got into the
hands of the presi,nt pubbs'ier, was a 'matter of great
doubt. Had the publicati.ni been, (lie of an innocent
nature, the author would no doubt have had A right
to come to a Court of Equity tier relict ; but his Lortt.
ship conidered Mr. Southey to have been guihy of
great negligence in not having demanded the copy
tro the bookseller, par. Marty as his opinions had
undergone such a change, which of itself rendered
the f.r.s-nt a c Ise of a most extraordinary nature.—
His Lordship having ;rad the whole of the Poem,
found it, ii.ste id of tieing a seouk of an innocent na.
tufr, to be one of a most pern cious tendency, and, of
course, a case in.which a Cunt of Equity had no
right to inti-rfere. His Lordship said he bad given
some attention to prior cases on the same subject;
and he found, in ail of those cases, that the Court had.
acted on the principle of not giving pi ,te;:tion to the
author of a work which was, or must be representeJ,
in a legal sense, as immoral or seditious. His Lord.
ship, therefore, felt himself bound to dismiss the ap-
plication.

NANA% SEPTEMBER 4.

The following is said to be the reason of the arrest
of Baron Von Massenbach. at Frankfort :—He lately
offered the Prussian Government a MS. which he
had inten.ted to publish as the continuation of his
unmans, but was willing to sell for a high sum : in
order to secure the sale, he intimated that his work
contained papers of great importance. The Prussian
Government, instead of ltstening to his proposal, ap-
plied to the Senate of Frankfort to attest Massenbach,
on the ground, as it is confidently said, that the
papers in question could only have come into his
bandi in an improper manner.

The arrest of Baron Von Massenbach forms the
subject of much observation in various public papers.

AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, AUGUS I' 20.

The following notification has appeared here :
" The investigation, commenced under authority, as
to the cause of the delay in the arrival of the supply
of corn from the Baltic, has as yet afforded no con-
Er matico to the reports which had been circulated,
according to which the contracts for the delivery of
the rye, &c. sent last spring from the Baltic to Hol-
land, had on its arrival there been made the subject
of private speculations. However, as every thing
respecting that report ought to be strictly investigat-.
ed, every person within the jurisdiction of this Go-
vernment is hereby required to give all the informa-
tion cuncerning it that may come to their knowledge."
A similar notification has also been publiblied at

SAXONY, AUGUST 29.

It is known to have been for some time reported,
that a splendid crown was preparing for the King of
I/ayti, Qt Leipsic. This rumour attracted the ob.
servatinu of the French E i.bassy at Dresden, which
accordingly made application .on the subject to the
Saint, Government. The affair was investigated,
ard it was discovered that the presumed emu n had
actually lacc-tt made by a very clever goldstniill at
Letpsic, who is a member of a society callnd the
Gun Csub : that it was, by way of joke, and as n
thing of little value, presented to the King, or Presi-
dent of the illustrious Leipsic Gun Ciao, whom tu-
mour had converted into a rifle King.
The first disturbance at Breslau, which is not to
be confounded with the last riots, originated very un-
intentionally in the itacticeof purifying the German
language. • Several young men belonging to the
Landwehr, who had assembled to be sworn. suppos-
ed they heard the Commanding Officer of the regular
tionps say—" Now les the Send assemble." This
gave them t- &nee; but upon investigation it appear.
eJ that the o.ficer had sald--46 Now let the Amer

BERLIN, AUGUST 20.

leis already known, that during the last days on
which the Council of State met, there was a sitting
of the Constitutional Committee, over which the
Prince Chancellor of State presided.
On this occasion the Prince delivered a long speech,
in chick he described the manner iu which the basis
of the constitutional labours should commence. He
laid down the proposition, that the constitution ought'
to unfold itself as it were in a historical manner out
of the state of society, that therefore a correct know_
/edge of existing institutions was necessary, and that
what was bow in existence ought first. to be taken
into consideration. He accordingly proposed that
Commissioners should be sent to the different pro-
vinces, in order to obtain information on the spot
respectiog% die ancient Constitutions ;_ and also to
converse with and collect the gpipions of men of
lestening in the provinces on the Abject. TheseCom-
miss oners are to be chosen from the body of the
Constitutional Committee, and to receive orders to
complete their inviry by the next meeting of the
Council of State, which is to take place in Autumn,
in order that their labours may, in that meeting, be
made the subject of deliberation. This proposal was
p,enerally approved, and the Ministers of State, Von
Altonstein, Von Bryn*, and Von Kiewitz, are no.
urinated to this commission, and have set out fur the

THE LATE PIIINCES.t CILIRLOTTE.

The Moniteur of the 27th has added to the proofs
of sympathy manifested by the people of France for
Our great national bereavement, by an interesting
memoir of our departed PniNceha. It is made up
chiefly from our own Journals, but adds the follow-
ing pleasing instance of that delicacy of sentiment for
which the Princess Cu ARLOTTE WAS so distinguished :
" What Frenchman can learn without profound emo-
tion, that during the exile of our Royal Family, she
participated in their sorrows, and that when Plum-
DENCE restored this august family to us, she rejoiced
in their prosperity, and expressed it in a manner
which proved how much her attachment to them was
noble and sincere ! It was she who sent to a Prin-
cess dear to all France, whose virtues and rare quali-
ties she acknowledged, whose great soul she admired,
and whom in beneficence and nobleness of character
she-particularly resembled, a bunch of lilies as a
presage of the restoration of the Bothinnws to the

Throne, as a token of the wish which she formed
with all Frenchmen for that event, and to which
Hk.Avvi has at length, happily for our prosperity,
and for the repose of the world, deigned to lend a
favourable ear."

IL4VRE-1)E-Gli4eR, NUrEMBER 26.

All the British subjects, of whom there are a great

numlnr at this place, are in deep mourning for the
death of the P►incess CiIARLWETC. The same re-
spect is also shewn by the Prefect of the Town. and
other French persons in official situations.

An English Gentleman, of the name of Ssurir,
was robbed and murdered, a few days since, near
this town, by two soldiers: the assassins, however,
were soon afterwards apprehended, and are to be
shot to-morrow.

as on board the hulks, both as to the Mond no less'
than the economical consequences, at present, to give
any decisive opinion...." They, however, entertain
little doubt that the whole system of maintaining the
convicts of the country is susceptible of great im
proveinent, and they trust they shall be enabled to
enter more fully into that subject early in the ensu-
ing Session."
They conclude theiravery interesting Report in
these words :--64 Your Vlmmittee feel conscious that
they have not made as full a Report upon the various
subjects of their inquiries as, perhaps, might have
been expected from them ; they have thought fit to
separate these subjects into distinct heads, and they
have brought them before the House in the order of
their importance. There are, however, MAIly points
which they are anxious to take into their serious con-
sideration, viz.—The Establishments of the Police ;
the Attendance of the Magistrates; the Duties of the
Inferior Parish Officers; the State of the Public
Streets ; the Laws concerning the Sop.pression of Dis•
orderly Houses ; all of them are, in their view, ob-
jects of great public importance; and, in order to
bring them in the most advantageous manner under
the view and consideration of Parliament, your COM•
injure trust they shall be permitted to renew their
!labours ip the ensuing Session."

ASSAULT AT THE ROYAL EXCIIANGIL
Tits Rixo v. Humus.
The Defendant was indicted for assaulting John
Lee, on the 3cl of April, at the Royal Exchange,
during 'Change hours. The Prosecutor deposed,
that tht, Defendant had lodged with him, and owed
14im 416 25. lie saw bins' on 'thane on tlic 3d of
April, and said to him, 11 there, ),ou are still. strut-
ting about; why don't you pay ine my money, and
r.ot sa intik poor people ?" on which the D•lendant
knocked iiim down and kicked him. On his cuss-
exam:nAtion he acknowledged he might have called
the Di letadant a swindler and a cheat three times
before he struck him, and on different days in the
same public place. Mr. Bonthby conoborated the
Prosecutor's evidence. In defence several witnesses
were called, who proved, that the Prosecutor had, at
several times, called the Defendant a swindler, liefure
he committed theassalr, and that he also threatened
to drive him off the 'Change • and that afttr the as-
sault was committed, they had a regular set-to on
Combat. The Jury found the Defendant Guilty.
The ItlicoltDßit sentenced him to pay a fine of Is.
only, in considerat:on of his underti.king, to pay the
Prosecutor his debt.

There were sev..ral pickpockets convicted as re-
wed thieves, and sentenced to siz rrinras imprison-

tote of the proceedings which he had advised, when
t',e application was made to the Court, which were
calculated to give every facility to the obtainment of
the liberty of these persons. He was bound to sup.
pr,te that. the parties were entitled to redress by re-
gular action, and could not help chi:ll6llg that there
must have been some mistake which had ptuvented
them from seeking it in that way.
Mr. CROKER bore testimony to the immediate
ity.erlerence of the Admiralty, to facilitate the serv.
in of the Habeas Corpus.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
admit' d it would have been We duty of the Trea-
sury to inquire into the transaction ; but he had no
tecollection of ever having heatd the names of the
1 attics hetqre that night, cr he would certainly have
Ezeude:l to any anlic.uion that had been made to
him. He would mike inquiry now, to satisfy hilt:-
elf, ,! if legal remedy could be obtained, the parties
would soon li.:trn the proper way to proceed f•tr it.

ing forward that rcliting to Manufactures and Trade

Mr. BROUGHAM asked some questions respect-
ing the intention of Grow-mm-1a to alter the ditties
on the importation of timber, the growth of the Bri-
tish Colonies.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said.; that it wAs not likely any alteration would be
invade this Session. _

Mr. PONSONLIY wish.d to know whether some
eltepti n was gait intended to be made in tavour of
Ireland, as it never could have been intended that
Ireland should pay a higher duty than England.—
The people of Ireland were match poorer than those
it England, and there was no article that could so
inconveniently bear a high duty,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said the duties had barn equalized three years ago;
but, in'conseq.tencept complaints that had been made,
another change had taken place in the following Ses•
iron, that was thought to be more favourable to
lieland, and it certainly was intended by Paha-
anent to be so.

HAMPSHIRE MUSICAL raTIVAL.

. r • „
The last Concert of this FestiYak; took place in
Thursday evening at fit. Johst's limsse, Winchester.'
At an early hour its avenues were blocked up with
carriages : at eight o'clock there was not standing
room. The first sir by Mr. W. -Kutverr, of " Full
fathoms five thy father lies," and the Chorus, were,
sung with great effect ; and that delicious Madrigal
of %Vltava's, of " Flora, give me fairest flowers,"
was well received, as the compositions of that Schuol
will always be by persons of genuine taste and feeling.
The instrumental Music was much admired, and the
celebrated Duet of MovotT, by BA ItTLILSIA N and
Vauon ma, who appeared to have imbibed Iresh vigour
sad expression from the well-earned applause they
received in the morning. The second Act was con-
cluded in the same spirit and character as the pre
ceding part of these performances.
