M. Pierre Barthelemy, a man of letters, and M.
Galliot, a bookseller, were on Thursday charged be-
fore the Assize Court of Paris with a formal attack
upon the constitutional authority of the King, and ex-
citing sedition—the one by writing, and the other by
publishing a work, entitled Demand for traneferreag
the mortal Remains of the Emperor A'apoleon, by the
Author of The Shade of Napoleon to the Council of
Ministers. The Counsel for the Defendants contend-
ed that the expressions in favour of Napoleon did not
amount to sedition, or an attack upon the constitution
of the King. On the other side great stress was laid
on the cover of the book, which presented the letter
" N." surmounted with a crown.—The Defendants
were acquitted.
TUB Two HUNDRED MILES MATCH IN THREE DAYS
CoMPLETID.—Mr. Conyagbani, the pedestrian, who
started from Westminster-bridge, at nine o'clock on
Thursday morning, for 200 guineas, completed it on
Sunday morning, between Harehatch and Maidenhead,
much fatigued. He did 69 miles in the first 24 hours,
travelling through Horsham and Chichester. He did
sixty-eight miles through Winchester, Komar'', and
Salisbury. to near Devizes, the second 24 hours ; and
the remaining 63 miles in 23 boars. He travelled the
first two days nearly five miles an hour, and took six
hours rest; but the third day be got sore, and had
only three hours rest.
WRIGHT. Till PRDESTRIAN.—This celebrated pe-
destrian returned from Hull to York within half an
hour of the given time, having walked from that city
to Hull, and back, fur three successive days, a dis-
tance of 234 miles, in 71 hours and a half. An im-
mense concourse had assembled to witness his entry
into York ; and be appeared very little fatigued. and
in great spirits. On Thursday last, a subscription
purse was made up for him, by several gentlemen, &c.,
in York. to walk 40 miles in eight hours, having one
hour allowed for refreshment. &c, Halt a mile was
measured, (being from the Sun Inn to the White
Horse, out of Micklegate Bar) and a great concourse
of spectators assembled to see him perform this aston-
ishing feat. which he acconiplished with apparent ease
as below :
The first 10 miles in 1 hour and 54 min.
211 do. I do. 48 do.
3d do. I do. 50 do.
4th do. I do. 50 do,
being 25 minutes within the time given. He rested
for refreshment. &c., during his performance. one
hour and thirteen minutes. The last mile was dont-
in 10 minutes 17 seconds. The pedestrian is not
six feet five inches, as bad been stated by an error
of the press, but five feet six inches high—" A trilling
mistake," says a York paper. from which we copied
the account.
TROTTING Margin—Oa Monday last. Captain
Allen, of Newbottle, undertook for a sr: ger of fifty
guineas. to trot his brown horse Silvertail, fourtingn
miles within the hour, carrying thirteen stone. The
performance took place on the Morpetb road, starting
at the Barns Bridge, to go seven miles out and bark.
which he performed with sue in one minute and a hisif
under the time. notwithstanding he went nearly half a
mile over the distance, in consequence of some mistake
respecting the mile stones. At starting, betting tray
three to one against the performance, on account of
the heavy state of the road. and the apparent want of
condition in the braes.—{Newcastle Chronicle.)
