The adjournment took' place at half past six o'clock
in the evening.
The anxiety of the crowd outside during the day was
almost unexampled. There were few Ladies within
the Court, the risk of the tremendous.tush being peri-
lous enough for the other sex, but the external stone
basement of the windows, particularly that behind the
Judge, was filled by Ladies, whose curiosity through.
out the day was not damped by the heavy showers of a
thunder storm which fell in rapid succession, and pat-
tered upon their umbrellas with a sound w hich once or
twice interrupted the business of the Court. Several of
the windows were broken by the pressure of the throng.
Corder was caused to Court between the Governor
of the prison and a single attendant, in a sort of tax cart,
out of which the prisoner jumped with great alact ity.—
There were some hisses from the crowd, but he was in
a mow= removed from their presence. It was re-
marked in the Court during the day, that he constantly
used a small penknife, which he took from his waist-
coat pocket, to mend his pencils while taking notes.—
His Counsel are to have a final consultation this n►ght
upon the form of his defence.

Our Contemporaries seem to be making a great deal
of unnecessary clamour about the correpoudence, as it ,
is called, between the Earl of SHREWSBURY and Lord
Rossuoaz. That the letter of the former, and the an-
swer of the latter, Nobleman (tor the " correspondence.
goes no further ; and an invitation to dinner, with a note
in reply accepting the same, might as well be dignified
with the name of "correspondence") were written for
publication, is palpable ! but what there is in either the
one or the other to deserve comment, we confess our-
selves utterly unable to discover. The Earl of SHREWS.
Suay, with all due deference be it observed, writes
just such skimble-scamble stuff as the O'CONNELCS,
the Oytiontates, and the Lev/Less% talk ; and Lord
llossuoax echoes it back again. The House of
Commons is their sheet anchor ; but if they seriously
calculate upon any thing the House of Commons
can do, as a separate and distinct branch of the
Legislature, the supposition is childish. We will
even go farther, and say, that any thing which both
Houses of Parliament might do, till they are supported
by a MAJORITY OW THE NATION, would only be a
fatal delusion. We have never allowed ourselves
to view this question as one which Parliament was to
decide—but the people. And let not those who think
they see the day of triumph approaching, be misled by
the apparent apathy of the country. That which they
mistake for apathy, is nothing more than a calm reel-
ing of confidence, arising from the knowledge that so
long as the hereditary legislature of the Empire—so long
as the venerable hierarchy of Great Britain—so long as
a PROTILSTANT KING wields the Sceptre, majorities
in the House of Commons are harmless. But let the dan-
ger be imminent—lit their first barrier be brokendown+
—let there be only the Throne to rally round—and then
see what attitude the country would take when the battle
was to be fought at every man's door. "The blood more
stirs to louse a hoe than to start a hare;" and it is not
bc,7ause an easily explained majority in the House
01 Commons, once in-evsry Session, slips a single bolt,
that myriads f faithful soldiers should spring to the
defence of the citadel. They know its real strength
better. Nay,'dropping the metaphor, we are convinced,
that these very majorities in the House of Commons
would disappear, if many of those who now help to
snake them, did not know and feel, that they may safely
consult particular interests by so doing. because there it
it House f Peers inaccessible to such influence, ready
to extinguish whatever rash and crude measure of legis-
lature upon this subject may come before it.
One word more —Viewing this question as we always
have, not as a mattit so be decided by this or that Ca.
binet, or by any peadossinent party in Parliament, but
by the national will, whenever the time comes that the
friends of Catinslia concession throughout the country
reponderateoverlts opponents, then, and then only, it
(tight o Ilecoad. What the Catholics themselves,
shocker, hare to du, and what their advccates sticuid
oss it, is, am to attempt by vain intimidation or by
kwtow, t tossuivaaces to extort or entrap us into their
oftmostely, as their hopes rise and fall, to
tkini and petition-s-but honestly, frankly, and man-
billy 10 work upon our reason—to remove our pre.
be prejudices; to sat sfy our doubts;
iodises, if they
to allay one feats; and, above all, to corms :cm us that
what they ask, we sway grant without rod:lingering—

thOugh but in the e timation of a heir—the sacred de-
posit of our libettier, as inherited from our forefathers.•
Let them do this, and when the last link of what thry
consider their fetters, drops from them—they will feel
that they have achieved a noble triumph, and we—that
we have DONE JUSTICE. All short of this must be
stained by faction, or tainted with corruption; and con:
sequently rest upon an insecure and torten foundation.

By a Dutch Mail, which arrived last night, we have
received the Journal of Si. Petersburgh to the 22,1 ult.
which contains another bulletin from the Russian army
south of the Danube, dated July 14. From this it
appears that the Imperialists, though they have made
some i Dither progress, have experienced very formidable
resistance at all poii,ts. The Turks now face and fight at
every post ; and even according to the reports of their
opponents, uniformly retire in good order before supe-
rior force, v ith very little loss. In some instances,
indeed, the Turks have been the assailants, aid it is
admitted that the utmost skill and intrepidity of the
Russians were requisite to repel their vigorous attacks.
If in the open country .they are able to make such a
resistance to the Russians, the long passage of the
mountains must be a matter of infinite .difficulty.—
Two or three engagements may yet, however, be anti-
cipated before the Russians enter on this part of their
enterprise; but the great and decisive conflict will, in
all probability, take place before Schumla.

The trial of William Corder for the alleged murder
of MARIA MARTEN. Came on yesterday at Bury St.
Edmund's ; a full and interesting account of which
appears in our inner columns. The trial, as was ex-
pccted, did not conclude last night, and it is probable
that it will occupy the greater pert of this day.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.
PIOX UM GAHM DC FRANCE, DAT& TIVITZIDAr.
CONSTANTINOPLE, JULY 10.

The Government does not regret the capture of Brailow ;, it
proves the resistance which the Russians will experience in other
parts. At present there is no change in the capital; no measures
of defence have been taken, only that the Capitan Pacha is going
by land with 4,600 men to Varna. It is singular the l'orte
sends an Admiral to defend a seaport in the Black Sea. Frequent
meetings take place at the residence of the Mufti, and the Reis
Effendi is occupied in regard to the answer of General Guille-
minot. The Sultan is continually occupied In reviewing the militia.
