MANCHESTER, NEW BAILEY, NOV. 4

BAMFORD, THE REFORMER. r 1
Samuel Bamford this morning appeaied in Court,'
for the purpose of making an application for a copy
of the warrant under which he was apprehended au;
the'26th of August last, for a conipiracy. It will be
recollected, that a few days, ago this individual made
application to the Court for admittance and accom-
modation, for the purpose of taking notes, and that
Mr. PEARSON, on a subsequent day, recognized him
as his clerk.

Mr. Bamford now presented himself before the
Magistrates (Mr. Marmon and Mr. WRIGHT.) •
Mr.

also a copy of the commitment.
Mr. Milne—For the warrant, you must apply to.
the constables, and for the commitment the
Bamford—Where can I obtain it
Nadin—You must talk to me in another place.
Bamford—Very well, Sir, I suppose I must then.
Nadin—There, go about your busine;s. You have
done now. Let us hear no more of it in this l p ace.
Bamford was silent, and retreated a few paces.
, Nadin—You are in the way now. You must,
go back.
One of the public officers immediately proceeded
to push Bamford out of Court ; the latter resisted,
and a scuffle ensued. Bamford cried.out several
times, " I appeal to the Court whether this is pro-
per behaviour ?"
Nadin—Hold your tongue, Sir. We will have
none of your chattering here.
Mr. MARRIOT—Let him be where he is, as long
as he is. quiet.
The officer still, however, persisted, under the di-
rection of Nadin, to turn Bamford out of Court ; and
the Magistrate was obliged again to interfere in his
behalf, saying, " You had better let him stay."
Bamford—l have a right to he in Court.
Nadin—lf you don't hold your tongue, Sir, I will
turn you out.
Bamford still persisted that this was very impro-
per conduct, and Nadin, who is an immensely stout
man, rose from his seat, and was about to turn him
out by violence, assisted by the police officers.
MAGISTRATE—No, let him be. He can do no
harm where he is.
Bamford immediately took his seat, and was suf-
fered to remain. He has a very shabby appearance.
William Paid, the person who was brought up on
a former day, charged with firing a pistol opposite
Mr. Johnstone's shop, ou Shude-hill, again appeared
in Court.
Mr. BARROW, on the prisonees behalf, represented
him to be a young man of respectable character, and
now serving in the Lancashire Militia. The pistols
he bought in his own defence, having been, on the
Friday preceding the purchase of them, very grossly
abused.
Mr. WRIGHT—It is strange that a young man
like this, getting no more than, perhaps, seven or
eight shillings a week, should take it into his head to
buy pistols. .
The person from whom the prisoner bought the
pistols was called, and proved that he at the time
stated, that he wanted them for his own defence. The
master of the lad also was called, and gave him a
good character.
The prisoner, cm being called upon to tell his own
story, stated, that he was very much intoxicated on
the night when he was apprehended.
Mr. WRIGIIT—You have behaved in a most im-
proper manner, and must find bail.
The prisoner said, that he had no bail at hand.
IHe was, accordingly taken down to the prison until
he could, procure bail to the amount of £2O, and
two sureties.
Yesterday, about three o'clock, Dr. WATSON, ac-
companied by a friend, went to the Office of the
Home Department, and requested to be admitted to
see Lord SIDMOUTH, to present an Appeal ; they
were shewn into the ante-room, and in about five
[ minutes were ushered into an adjoining room to his
Lordship. They walked forward, and Dr; WATSON
informed Lord SIDMOUTH, that he attended to re•
quest his Lordship to present an Appeal of the Non-
represented People of the Metropolis to his Royal
!Highness the PRINCE REGENT, which he then put
iipto his Lordship's hand, requesting to know if his
'Lordship would send the answer, or whether he
-skould wait upon him'again?
Lord Simmons answered—" Dr. Watson, you may call;
when will it be convenient?"
Dr. Wsysoa—" When it will be so to your Lordship; per-
haps on Monday r
. lord SIDMOUTII-= On Monday I shall be.engaged."
Dr. WATSON--" On Tuesday may I call?"
. Lard SUMOUTIII-4' At what hour?"
Dr. WATSON--" Perhaps two o'clock, my Lord." •
Lord SiDMOUTIE-•-" That hour will be convenient ; you may
mill at that hour, Dr. Watson."
Upon which Dr. WATSON and his friend retired.
WH-IGS AND TORIES.—The political distinctions
of 'Tories and Whigs were not known till the reign of
CIiA.RLES the Second. Torach, in the Irish or Erse
language, is Royal ; and Toirach, Ecclesiastical;
ti from one root, signifying supreme authority.
The-Irish, like other nations, considering Torachs, or
tax-gatherers, as publicans and robbers, gave the
name to highwaymen. Cuaithanf,r, belonging to the
country, produced the word NN hig. It was first
known in Scottish history, as applied to the Whig-
gamor inroad, under the Duke of ARGYLE, which
consisted of parishes, with their Ministers, who
marched at their head, preaching .and praying in
favour of their rights. Mor, in all the Celtic dia-
lects, signifies great, and Whiggamor was the great
popular cause.
HAZARD and Co.'s Whole Ticket Customers are
respectfully recommended to purchase before Mon-
day next, as it is almost certain there will not be suf-
ficient to meet the demand.—HAZARD and Co. have
ordered the unsold Tickets and Shares to be returned
by their Country Agents instantly, as the great in-
crease of sale at their Old .Established Offices, renders
this measure necessary.—NEXT TUESDAY, at least
Two of the Eight Twenty Thousands (Money and'
Consols) Must be Drawn, and it will be recollected,
HAZARD and Co. sold All the first drawn Capital
Prizes in a former Lottery—their Offices, Royal Ex-
