Campbell, when he returned from the anchor boat,
saw them plundering and wrecking in even• direction,
and even retrying away his own boo., and clothes
hefors his eyes. The carpenters took him and Swain-
son, the other survivor, to the Lodge, where they had
struck up a large fire, and they sat down. While one
of the carpenters was fetching some nailk, Which they
s.,ial they would like, the other went op stairs to see
how Cullen and the mate were; and u hen he came
down he told them the mate wan deal. " I believe,
Cullen) that after his excessive fatigue, between
the :_•neat cold anil the heat, he had died. The car-
penters thought he would have recovered as well as
I did ; anti went to save the others. The carpenters
theta nut to, llrs. Goalie's; called the steward out of
bed; and got setae rant, which they gave to them is
small quantities, as they eunld bear it, and treated
them with every kindness. " Anil we firmly believe,
and Irish it to be mentioned, that if it hail out hero
for the exertions of these good people, we would all

M tnstors-Housr.-31ntulay, Mr. Stokes, of Lom-
bard-street, appeared before the Lord Alarm, on a pe-
nal information under the Act for the prevention of se-
ditious meetings and inflammatory and seditious pub-
liettions, charging hint with having refused to obey
the order of the ,Magistrate to produce the copy of a
certain placard printed by him, inviting the citizens
llf Loudon to a General illumination.
Mr. EICKE attended as Solicitor for Mr. Stokes ;
i.nrl Mr. Nov mot, the City Solicitor, conducted the
prosecution.
The refusal being proved, Mr. Picea said, be should
nut now enter futile into the merits of the case, as be
had a number of objections to the information, which
be was apprehensive must prove fatal to it. it did
serprise him that his client, than whom he knew no
one who could possibly hare a greater interest in the
preservation a the peace of the City, and the preven-
tion of every thing like sedition or tumult, should be
prosecuted ler slice an Act as the 39th of Gee. 3.
cap. ;9. see. 29. being " An Act for the more effectual
suppreseion of Soler:ire established for seditious and
treasonable purposes, well for the better preventing
treasonable and seditious practices."
Mr. EII'ILE precereed to contend, that the informs
rims could not bromstained, inasmuch as it was uncer-
ta u in its telegatioate and at variance with the evi-
dence, and in fact nonsettse, for it charged his Lord-
s:sip with being the printer of the paper. The iefor-
!natio:, stated, that "on the 4th of November, the de.
feerlant, John Stokes, appeared before the Lord Mayor.
and refused to produce the ropy of a paper priteted by
/dine" Non this pronoun clearly related to the Lord
Mayor, who was the antecedent, and not te Mr. Stokes ;
lint the gretuntatiral construction here was, that 31r.
Stokes was summoned to produce a paper primed by
the Lord 31a,,0r.
The Lord 31 oven said, that the ; ronoun him related
di erectly to Mr. Stokes. The objection 1,13.11 over.
ruled.
Mr. Fleen saesl he ball another objection, which
was, that there haul been no evil enee to support the
allegation that 3lr .Snakes had printed the bill on the
311th of October, ..r that Mr. Stokes bad piloted the
boil at all.

placards in questien, the &Area which was the 30th
of Oet,,lier ; Stiokes, printer, iio leombertletteeet•—The
pioenctien of this a rested bill, with the name of Mr.
ewers upon it, as the Printer, anal with the date of
Zielth of October up on it, was p. i.oopcie evidence that
Stokes was lite rioter of the bill, anal that he had printed
it on that day ; and that the wins lay with the defen-
dant to disprove that be teas the printer.
Mr. Ell KE said, he haul newer heard of such a law
before, as that a person who was charged under a
penal information should he bound to prove him-,
