that a youug woman of her appearance should lies4l,,t

the most feeling manner to prepare for the awful fat,
that awaited her, and then nithdrew to superiatesf
the preparation. In half on hour the unfo:tanct

DREADFUL OCCURRENCR NORrimirProx

Late on Tuesday night, the inhabitants of this peace-
able town wets alarmed by a riot In Sheep-street. A
party of the tl6th regiment, who was in barracks here
(all Irish), had met, if appears, at the Phansbere' Arms,
kept by a Berman of the name of Sneicker. Words
haviag ensued between them and the inhabitants who
frequent the house, arising oat of some expressions used
by the former (who were much intoxicated) against the
Queen, the honest and loyal um. of Crispin, who had
been in the house, immediately challenged the soldiers
to tight, and stripped themselves for that purpose ; when
we regret to state, the soldiers drew their side-arms, and
wounded several persons severely. ft ye were conveyed
to the infirmarv,and one(a map of theTname of liobinstm,

custody awaiting the terdict of the Coroner's ililteo.—
The constables and iMorities of the town were prompt

Inhabitants.

Charles Lee was then put to the Bar charged with
pauing a forged note, mount one pound, purporting to
be of the Bank of England, in the shop of Mr. Byers a
linen-draper, in East-street, Manchester-square. Mrs.i
Byers, wile of the prosecutor, swore that the note was
passed by the Prisoner, in her shop ; that, having some
suspicion of the note, she sent out her buy into a neigh-
bouring shop, to get change, and there the boy was told
it was a forged note. Previous to the return of the boy,
the husband of witness returned and gave the change to
the prisoner, who immediately went out of the shop.
On the boy's telling his master, that the note was bad,
he ran efiter thee pebsomor, mid caught him about five
door's off. The boy was called, and eirroborated the
story of his mistress.

COMMON H.l 1. L.

A Court of Common !fall was bold this morning, for
the purpose of declaring the result of the Poll at the
late Election, as the numbers which had been exhibited
at the close of the contest hail been found to be in-
correct. The doors of the flail were not opened
until IQ o'clock, and very little anxiety was manifes'ed
to procure admission. Indeed the• Hall itself presented a
striking contrast to the noisy confusion and turbulence
which had distinguished it on the preceding days. The
violence of public feeling appeared to be exhausted, and
the proceedings of this day were not marked by any ex-
trannlinary expression of popular approbation or dislike.
The number of votes for each Candidate, as now exhi-
bited, appeared vs follows:

ANECDOTE OF LORD ERREIN6.—Hig Lordship, as is
well known, lately paid a visit to Edinburgh, after an ab-
sence of nearly has centnrv, where he met with a 'nose
cordial reception from all classes of his countrymen, and
particularly from the gentlemen of the bar.
Having at length parted with his numerous friends
and admirers in Acid Reekie, his Lordship took his pas-
sage for London in one of the smacks. It so happened
that no vessel could get out of Leith harbour for several
days from want of water on the bar, • circumstance of
rare occurrence; and his Lordship, with other disap-
pointed passengers, were seen duly at tide hours, day by
day, on Leith pier, waiting anxiously for the sailing of
the vessel.
When the Favourite cleared the harbour, Lord
Erskine's feelings were expressed in the following
stanza :

Of depth profound, o'erflowing far,
1 bless'd the Edinburgh bar,
Whilst. 'muttering oaths between pay teeth,

fearsi the altairoir bar of Leith.

A 'notion was made, and carried unanimously. that this
impromptu should forthwith be printed on board, by
Mr. John Ruthven, one of the passengers.
Mr. R. proceeded to gtatify the cowpony. and, with
one of his portable printing presses at band. speedily
executed the task allotted to him, to the great satisfac-
tion of the passengers and the ship's company, with the
addition of the following couplet by one of the gentle-
men present :
TO LORD ERSKINE.
rpere, spare, my Lord, your angry feellags,
Nor leave us thus as if at war:
'Twas only to retain roe with us,
We it our harbour pieced a bar.
The following lines by Lord Erskine. in comtisemla-
lion of Captain Sanderson, were also printed at the de-
sire of the passengers, by Mr. Ruthven, at the Nore. on
the passage. on board the Favourite, March Ist. 1020:

Mr. Swann was convicted) was delivered to Peter Jen-

proved by two witnesses, who observed the transaction

Arronnt of recent transactions in the kingdom
of Ara, from the last Madras Com, ier, :piddle of
February.

On the sth of July, the King of Ara died in his 79th
year. The Prince Regent ascended the Throne, and on
the following day a conspiracy was discovered on the
part of his uncles, the Princes of Prime and Tinghoo, the
latter of whom, together with his family, were bound in
sacks and thrown into the river, drowning being the use&
of putting to death any of the Royal Family. The Prince
of !'rime was fettered and imprisoned, and report-says
died of starvation. Between 7 and t4OO of those who
were concerned in the conspiracy, suffered at rmssie. I
pours. It appears, the King being attacked with a
complaint which proved fatal to him in three days,
a powder plot was laid by the Princes, to blow up
the palace, which would have succeeded had it nut
been for the heavy raiAs which damped and flooded the
powder. On the discovery of the plot, immediate mea-
sures were taken, although it has been fatal to 1100 per-
sons it has saved the country from the miseries of a civil
war. The Court appears to be indebted principally for
the measures that have been adopted, to Sled., the late
I Niceroy of Rangoor, who was delivered by the late King
on his death bed, to the present, as a man in whom he
might confide. The King had issued an order to suspend
I all civil law for three years from the day of his ascension,
as well as to remit the levying of all laud duties and
duties on goods proceeding up and down the river. About
half a lac of rupees had likewise been levied on the In-
habitants of filmgoer, hot was again returned by the
present King to the owneis at Itanaroor. The present
account medusa the souther of those who havesuffered,
at 15,000.

THE QUEEN.

The Sheriffs of London appeared at the Bar, and
presented a petition from the Lord Mayor, Aldermen,
and Commoners of the City of London in Common
Council assembled.

Mr. Alderman Woof) observed, that this petition
was agreed to this day by a very considerable majority
of the Common Council, only ten hands being held
up against it. After stating that he entirely concurred
in every sentiment which the petition contained, the
Worthy Alderman concluded with moving, that tie
petition should lie on the table.
_

The petition was read, and was in substance the
same as the Resolutions which appear in another part
of this paper.
On the motion of Mr. Alderman WOOD, the petition
was ordered to be printed.
Mr. S. WORTLIT, in presenting a petition from the
assignees of Mr. Robertson, who was a creditor of
Oeneral Burton's, complaining of the loss which they
sustained in consequence of the General's release from
the Fleet Prison, upon his election to that House, took
occasion to remark, that however expedient it might be
that the Members of that House should enjoy the pri-
vilege of exemption from arrest, after their election, it
did not seem fitting that any Member, elected while in
prison for debt, should be liberated from prison after
his election, without granting some indemnity to any
persons who might suffer thereby. Such, indeed, was
his impresrion upon this subject, that he should feel it
his duty to propose a law next Session fur the relief of
those who might so suffer.

Mr. W,Lssaroaca made some remarks under the
gallery which we could not distinctly bear,. but we
understood him to speak in favour of the petitioners.
Mr. BANKcs observed, that if the intended proposi-
tion of the Hon. Member for Yorkshire should even
be adopted, such a law must be only prospective, and
and therefore could afford no relief to the petitioners.
Mr. S. IVOR/Lev expressed a hope that it would he
found possible to devise some means of relievim the
petitioners, at least by allowing them to prpd at
law.
INSOLVENTS.—Mr. B. Barnearr rose, hi tekt,
to present a petition from some Orions of whon
had no but as a Member of Parliament he
felt it his duty to lay it before the House. This
petition was from the debtors confined io the Ring's
Bench, and contained the expression of an apprehen-
sion that the Insolvent Bill, at present under the con-
sideration of the other House of Parliament, might not
pass into law, with a prayer, that if such shrill be
the case, the presto law might be farther coati red,
fir the purpose of relieving the petitioners, who were
ready to give up all their property in order to obtain
their release from prises.—The petition was ordered
Ito lie on the table.

the mail train Worcester to London, on the 136 pf
May, I 19, and which, as was supposed, .had beep
lost on the road.
On the t.,ort of the plaitit:ff it was proved that the
parcel had been regularly booked, and the nin-arrival
at the place to which it was directed. The porter
who took the parcel to the coach-office, denied that
be had seen any notice stud. up there restricting
the defendant's liability, and that they would not be
answerable for parcels exceeding the raise of fire
pounds, unless booked as such and paid for arcurd-
ingly. He also denied that he Wes acquainted with any
notice whatever, given by the defend tuts, restricting
their liability.
It appeared in evidence. the part of the defend-
ants, that they had stuck op in their comb-office a
board, conspictionsly plarrd, on which was painted,
in legible characters, their restrigdire notice; and that
•the plaintiff had been there allaral tinves ; and that
the defendants had need other metes to Owe publicity
to their notice. Under these circumstances the plain-
tiff was nonsuited.

HIGH TREASON.

SPECIAL COMMISSION.—PAIszuer, Jut' tl.

The Court of Special Commission was opened here to-
day, for the purpose of arraigning the defendants, against
whom a true bill, charging high treason, was formerly
found by the Urand Jury. The defendants are
James Spier', James Walker, Robert Parker, John
Young, John Lang, John Srnellie, and Janice Nixon,
but the whole have absconded except Spier. and Lang.
These two persona were placed at the,bar, and being re-
quired to say whether they were guilty or not guilts' of
the treason charged, they respectively answered, Net
guilty, and demanded a trial, "by Cod and their
country." They were informed from the Bench that
their trials would come on the Ist of August.
The Court resumes its sittings at Ulasgow on Monday,
and meets at Dumbarton ou Wednesday, fur the twigs
there.
