To Ike EDITOR of TIIE STATES.II.4.V.

Stn—l Rome time since 521,1 a statement in your

the Collectors of Tales; the resignation of many
of those persons, rather than carry their orders
into effect, and the petition of many householders

WELLS T. POWELL AND DANCE.

Mr. ALEXANDER moved to have a receiver up-
painted in this cause. Ile stated that the Defend-
ant, Powell, had been in partnership with a per.
con of the name of Weaver, in the Swan Inn
Hotel, Birmingham ; the Plaintiff purchased the
half of the property which was vested In Weaver,
and put the Defendant, Dance, into the house with
Powell, to carry on the business; Dance had since
kft the Inn, and the Defendant, Powell, had
given the Plaintiff notice that he intended to carry
en the business on his own account, without con-
sidering the interest of the Plaintiff. He there.
fore trusted, his Lordship would order a receiver
$oO be appointed.

Mr. RA •tr, Counsel for the Defendant, Powell,
stilted, that he was perfectly willing and ready to
account for every shilling which had been received,
but denied having any partnership with the Plain.
tiff. Ile admitted there had been a partnership
with Miss Mary Dance, the niece of the Plaintiff,
who, unfortunately, was fonder of drinking the
wino, than semi% his customers with it; under
those consi lerations, his client could not allow
her to remain longer in the house; he informed
the Plaintiff, who had her removed, and placed
another woman in the house, who still remained ;
sander those circumstances, he trusted his Lord-
ship would think that a receiver would be wine.
canary.

or-Ohe LORD CUANCELLOR directed, that it should
if• to the Muter to appoint a receiver or mans.
ger ; and if there was no materiel objection, it
was not improbable but he might appoint the De-
fendant, Powell, in which case, neither party
could be much injured.

KENT ASSIZES.

MAIDSTONE, TutriltDAY, Ado. S.

Three Special Jury causes were appointed for
this morning, of which one went off for detect of
Jurors ; another was withdrawn ; and the third,
which was whether certain lands were subject of a
mains or not, was shortly disposed of. The on.
ly evidence given of the modus was the receipts of
the last two Vicars, which his Lordship held was
insufficient proof.
The business finished before ten o'sloik this
morning, and concluded the Assizes.

The adjourned Surry Sessions commenced yes.
terday at the Session House, Horsemonger.lane,
before Mr. Serjeant ()Know, and a fnli bench of
Magistrates. A number of Insolvent Debtors
were brought np from the King's Bench, and dis.
charged. Several who were opposed en Various
grounds were remanded, and will be brought up
again when all those who are not opposed have
been liberated.

Two valuable horses having died, and several
others having become sick, in consequence or
drinking out of a certain trough at Newmarket,
the water has been analysed, and there are strong
grounds to suspect, that poison was mixed -with it.
A reward of 100 guineas has been offered for the
discovery of the person guilty of this heinous
offence.

An artful robbery was committed a few even.
jggs ago at a honso at Clapham ; g young female
was observed throwing up the sash of the parlour
window, but perceiving a constable noticing her,
e cried out mother! mother! and the officer went
away thinking all was right. She afterwards en.
tered the house, and took away property to the
amount of upwards of 301.
Tuesday night the stables of Mr. Whittington,
of Stevenage, in Hcrts, were broke open, and a
valuable horse Stolen, which is supposed to hare
been brought to the Loodou market for sale.

STATESMAN.

Several persons assert that the enemy intended to
hate retreated to Hungary, bet the events of the
day prevented them. Some pretend to say they
have recognized upon the field of battle the bodies
of 20 Austrian Generals. The number of wound-
ed Generrls is far tbore considerable.

Jut,z 12.—Our Nstional Gazette contains
what follows : The complete victory over the
Austrian army on the 5111, 6th, and 7th of July,
was again obtained by Napoleon's superior genius,
by so guiding the movements of the army, that by
small sacrifices on his part, the Austrian army
was forced, by manoeuvres, to quit its positions,
in which it supposed itself invincible, when the
French Grand Army rushed upuu it, and occa.
sioned its defeat."

All Moravia and Bohemia are open to the Con.
queror.—The 'id Bavarian division, under Lieute-
nant General Wrede, had a glorious share in the
event of toe day. Ott its arrival at Vienna on
the sth inst. it had only crossed the Danube, and
was led into battle. Lieutenant General Von
Wrcdc had at first a horse shot under him, after.
ter wards he received a contusion on the hi!, by
cannon shot, which is not, however, dangerous.
When he ordered himself from the field of battle,
he encouraged the troops to perseverance and va.
lour by a speech.
In the b.►ttles of the sth and Clth, the Archduke
Lewis is also said to be dangerously wounded....

WI this place in company with his Majesty's ship

getting up till this day, what, on our approach,
firing was observed in every direction on the shore,
and set vaal vessels trying to effort their escape
out of the harbour, which were captured as per

have escaped, but were prevented through the ac.

On Saturday lirillis,o Henry Raventeraft was
brought before Mr. GRAHAM, by R. Liteberick
and. Blackman, charged on suspicious of having
committed &refs forgcrius upon the louse of
Messrs. Mastennan and Co. Bankers. It ap-
peared that a short time since the prisoner obtained
gash for a forged draft, to the amount of 151. A
few days dace, a draft for one hundred pounds
was priming/4 to the above house, whieb proved
to be a forgery ; the clerk in ,the shop detained
the seas who presorted it, who stated, that he had
looniest from the Swan public-house, in Pohlad-
street, to get it cashed by the prisoner, who bad
borrowed two pounds ape. it ; and Ms descrip-
tion asseeriag that of the man who had uttered
the forgeddraft fur 151., they were satisfied with
Ms account. Is consequence of private informa-
tics of die primmer, Limberick and Blackman
apprehended him, on Friday night, at a Club sf

A very interesting case occurred at Prince Ed.
ward's Island, during the Sessions in April last,
the conclusion of which, as usual, proved the im.
partiality of British justice. Am ELI 1 FPUTER-
MUSH, a beautiful girl of 16, a native of England,
having about two years ago entered the service of
a Mrs. WATHIN, who lived at No. 102, Great
Portland-street, was trepanned by her mistress,
and carried away, first to Newfoundland, and
thence to Prince Edward's Wand, under pretence
of making a coasting tour to the isle of-Wight.
When upwards of three hundred miles at sea,
the unsuspicious girl inquired of a sailor how
far they were from the Isle of Wight, and, for
the first time, became acquainted with her real
destination.—Separated from her parents
and friends, on her arrival at Prince Edward's
Island, she made her melancholy story known to
persons who could yield her only pity, not as.
sistance. But at last an application was made
to C ASA a CoLeusuaw, Esq. Chief Justice of
1 the Island, by whoa, after the ingenuity of
Counsel had been bleed by the artless recital of
1 her wrongs, the sentence of bee liberation was
prone . This decision was heard with tu.
melts roy by all present, and the Innocent
girl * ender the care of Colonel Cows-
TON, h family, who were abqut to sail for

CAPTAIN BARGL.4Y.

TSe cause of this extraordinary pedestrian
changing his ground on Newmarket Heath, Arose
from a hint that it might be safer for him to walk
by night on the open heath, than under the hedge,
un the left head side of the road, as he had M.
' therto done. la consequence of this intimation,
he now carries a brace of pistols in a flannel best
as soon as it becomes dark ; lie continued to walk
his tso miles within the last, and first quarter of
each hour through Friday last (his sistimetth
day). The bets on the event of this singular
pefurinance have varied within the last two &Jill
fru& sesch to four in favour of its execution,
to even betting that it 13 not accomplished.—
The Captain seemed in perfect health on Friday
(-vening, and walked his new course with ap.
parent ease. The lamps erected along his walk
answer the double purpose of giving him light and
aelditional personal security. This singular die.
(aver is iu the 27th year of his age, certainly
joissessing a f..rtuile of 60001. per annum ; and
though he ikver rides but w hen hunting, has a fine
stud of horses at his seat in Scotland, where he
has also an estsblishnient in other respects suitable
to his posstsbions. Besides tue 1000 guineas nag
g.•r with Mr. WEBSTER, he is said to have not less
than three times that sum depending upon the
ibbec with other personi.

Or, bear no longer arms against these trouhles, •

BROWN)VOBB, 4.v0 CO. BANKERS.

To 'ME EDITOR OF nil: ST iMAN.

Stn—l request the favour of von to insert the
following statement, the necessity for which, ha,
arisen from a mistake (inadvertently doubtless) in
The ?inner of this day.
Being appointed Treasurer for the " Subscrip-
tion, for the assistance of persons con4idered as
unjustly prosecuted by the Proprietors 'and Ma-
nager of Covent-garden Theatre," I thought it
my duty, to place the monies receives! by me in
the hands of a Banker; and accordingly applied
to T. Brown, Esq. of the house of Brown, Cobb.
and Co. of Lombard-street, to open an account for
that purpose. Mr. Brown expressed his acquies-
cence in my proposal, and it was agreed between
us, that an account should be opened in nog name,
to the credit of which, saint sobscriptiuns as might
be tendered, at the house of Brown, Cobb, and
Co. should be paced.
In consequence of this conversation, I directed
the names of Mcssrs. Brawn, Cobb, and Co. to
be inserted in the Advertisement, but was greatly
surprised, when, on Monday morning last, I wei.:
to pay iu the balance in my hands, as Treasuret,
to learn from Mr. Col,l),his high displeasure, at M.
Brown's having assented to tha insertion of tht.
mines of Brown, Cobb, and Co. without the pre.
ivious approbation of Mr. Cobb, aod the other
partners ul the Firm. The conversation, which
eras at first somewhat warm, termin.vcd, in the
positive refusal of Mr. Cobb to open emu account
connected with that Subscription. I accordingly
altered the advertisement, omitting the names of
Brown, Cobb, and Co. and it was inserted in Thr
Statesman of that evenint, with that omission :
in The Morning Chronicle also, of this day, the
I names of Brown, Cobh, and Co. tiro omitted ;
but, by some inadvertency, they are nal omitted
in The Times.
About four o'clock this afternoon I received
the following hotter •

(COPY.)

" We are aatborized to Mate. that the insertion of Brown.
Cobb and Co. as Receivers of Subscrip;ions for the Defence
of Persons on ler Pro4eetitionfor ri3tna, behaviour in Covent

Co. have no connection with that Sabscription,"
" Mr. Miller."

" SIR,

The Tintr.f, Statesman, Morning flared, .110raieg Chro-
nicle.

On this extraordinary letter, I shall but briefly
observe—that Messrs. Brown, Cobb, and Cu.
assume the liberty of slating, the Subscription to
be, " fur the Defence of Persons under PrOSCCII.
don for riotous behaviour."—Now, Sir, the
words of the Advertisement are " Sub4criptiuns
for the assistance of Persons on:chic:red as un-
illally prosecuted, by the Proprirturs and Mans.
gem" By what authority, Messrs. Brown, Cobb,
eod Co. assume that liberty, lam at a loss to dii-
cover ; as well might :Messrs. Brown, CA!), and
Cu. call the indictments riotous, as those unjustly
pro,rroPoi individuals, who, by the rtsjection of
such optimism:tits by the Gram] Jury, have been
declared innocent of Lliu charge of rioting.
Messrs. Brown, Cobb, and Cu. were requegted

to become the Guardians of this properly, minis.
terially, as mere Bankers, unconnected with the
object, or appropriation, of the money. As the
Subscription for Miss Traylor hail been piiiilsely
received at the house of Brown, Cobh, and Co. I
thought those Gentlemen proper Depositories of
this Subscription. If, however, Messrs. Brown,
Cobb, and Co. are ashamed of becoming Deposio,
teries of a Subscription, having for its object the
Vindication of the Rights and Liberties of the
Stehject—it was by no means nrremmary that those
Gentlemen should have taken upon themselves to
pronounce the guilt, or innocence, of the indivi.
duals fur whose embimtance the Subscription has
been raised, and of whom, Thente.seren out of
Forly.one, have already been declared Innocent,
by a Jury of their Countrytneu.
I am, Sir, your most obedient humble Servant,

COLONEL WARDLE.

That the Proprietors of Vauxhall should have
been so imprudent as to introduce a Song which,
it must hate been obvious to the most dense
capacity, was calculated to excite dissection
amongst the company, is a proof of their zeal
...honourable neither to their judgment nor their
independence.

On Wednesday evening a Quartet was intro-
duced, in which the repetition of the " Duke and
the Army" excited the disapprobation of the
Company.---Much hissing ensued, and " The
Duke and the Darling" was loudly vocife-
rated.—The singers were at length hissed off ;
but Mr. Dionua, likd a lion retreating before his
pursuersouthibited certain gesticulations of defiance
to the audience, from which it may perhaps be
made apparent at some future period, that the
zeal of Mr. DiaNum very greatly exceeded his
prudence.

7to THE EDITOR OF THE STATESMAN.

SIR— America is said to be, and doubtless with
justice, a "rising country;" but I should
greatly rejoice to see the American character rise
in humanity and morals, as well as in wealth.--
Of the moral state of society in the Southern
States, the following paragraph, which I have this
day read in an American newspaper, is a forcible
illustration :
" At a Court of Sessions held at Charleston (America), an
" the 25th May last, George Burrows and Robert Welch,
" convicted of negro-stealing, were ordered to be hanged.
" James Hutton, convicted of having killed a negro, was
" .fimd fifty Pounds."
And this too in the Trans-Atlantic seat of Free.
dom!—The Legislature of America would have
been more honourably employed in delivering the
unhappy African from a condition, in which the
destruction of human existence is valued at the
sum of 501.—than in delivering Mr. TuostAs
JEFFERSON, the late President, from the oppres-
sive evil of postage—a resolution which, it ap-
pears by the following paragraph, was lately
adopted.
Congress btu enacted that Two's AS Jc►rcasnn, their late
President, shall send and receive litters, free of postage.

Did ever Nation act with inconsistency so gross?
The Planters in Georgia and Carolina allege, that
the Cotton Shrub cannot be cultivated but by Ne-
groes. This is the old argument used by the West
India Planters with respect to sugar. A celebrated
author observed, that be never looked at a lump of
sugar, but his imagination pictured it to be stained
with drops of human blood. The some sentiment
may very naturally arise with reference to a piece
of cotton cloth. Fur when we reflect on the condi-
tion of the negro who cultivates the plant, and
that of the miserable, lost, class of beings who
spin the thread—our boasted manufacturing vs-
tem will perhaps not find many advocates
amongst the real friends of humanity.
