tpon examining the division in the Lords yettenlay ne
find that, excluding the nine Ministers who are the au-
thors of the Bill and the proseentoss of the Queen, that
of the hereditary Nobles who derive the right of voting
from their birth, there was a majority against the m
tion ; fur among the majority of yesterday we find
eleven Bishops, seven Representative Peers for Ireland,
and five for Scotland, all of whom are eleetire—every one
of whom too owes his election to the Minister oldie
day. We never, indeed, remember an instance in which
a Representative Peer fur either Scotland or Ireland was
elected rt hose politics were adverse to those of the ex-
hting administration, and we know how the Bishoprics
are disposed. Deducting them from the majority of yes-
terday, the Elective Peers with the Ministers, and about
sixteen Placemen, who are remorable at the King's plea-
sure, combined with the chosen Members of the Secret
Dantmittee who originally recommended the Bill, bow
stands the majority ?

I En 111 I. CLINIENT.

This wls inquisition, held at the Green Man at
Blackheath. before the Sheriff and a Jury of the
'county of heist, under the following ciicuinstatices,
as detailed by the Counsel on both sides.
It appeared that a Mall of the name of Carter had
been discharges! by the Insolvent Itrbtors' Court, in
November, I+17: and in the cottrse of his examinas
tion before the Court. i.e stated some circumstances
affecting the character of Mr. Lewis, an attorney.
These facts were published in the Ors yet s• IlleWfpaper,
anti Mr. Unit brought an action against Mr. Cle-
ment, the proprietor of that paper, which was tried at
Maidstone, in March, Ps! "4, on %hick occasion Mr.
Clement pleaded the greeral issue, and also a justifi-
cation, on the ground of having fairly reported the
proceeding of a Court of Law; and the Jury who
tried the cause found a vii diet for the defendant.
This verdict was subsequently set aside by the Court,
on two points, that ws•rs, as stated by the Counsel,
mere points of fortis, awl the Jury were now called
upon to assess the dam sgus.
Mr. Illausty %Tr, for Mr. Lewis, stated his case, and
called evidence, to show the injury his client sustain-
ed by the publication in .ineition.
Mr. A ill)LPiit 4. for \I r. Clenieut, contended, in a,
most aide speech, that °se proceedings in a Court of
JAW, where issue was jeined, are and ought to be pub-
lic; that fruits the unfortunate turn the cause had
taken, his client w•ss derived of the benefit of his plea
of justification, which the Jury who had tried the
canoe had admitted to be well founded, by returning a
verdict far the defendant, hut whirls, on mere tech-
nical points, was set aside. Ile called upon the Jury
to give the smallest damages, as no doubt the Jury
would have done who tried the raose, bad they been
aware of the result of the verdict they were
Mr. Sergeant Ilvitoce, who presided for the She-
riff, stated to the Jury, that they were called upon to
assess damages for a gross libel, pointing out to them,
that the injury c plaint's! of by the plaintiff was
proved by the witnesses produced. lie denied the po-
sition of Mr. Adolphus, that all the proceedings of
Cowls of Law might be published, as any third party
being injured by such publis atiun might no doubt
bring an action for that iasjary.
The Jury retired for about half an hour, and on
their return pronounced a verdict of 5001. damages.

PRRAVINT v. HARRIS AMP ANOTRIC

This was an action of trover, brought to recover the
valve of a hill of exchange to the !truant of =I. which
the defendants had got into their possession, and sad
converted to their own use. The pleiatiff was a seed:-
man, and the defendants were considerable dealers un
the 'urn-Exchange. It appeared that the plaintiff had
ipl,l a quantity of seeds to Messrs. Heed and Heliler;
that these parties had, at that time, obtained au accep-
tance to the amount nfsllol. from the defendants, Messrs,
Harris, fur their areommtelotion, undertaking, at the
Cline, to leave the seeds porchased from the !plaintiffs
with them as a security. The seeds, however. were not
delivered in tmie, aml upon a remonstrance made by
Messrs. liar. is, the plaintiff del vered :hem some hops,
and the bill in question, as a security. In the ase.n
time the seeds were delivered on ac..outit of Read aid
Hellier 4s the defendants, who then sent back the bops
to tlie plaintiff. Shortly after this, NlPsars. Read and
Herder became I,anlirtipts, and the defendants refused
to give op the hill.
John Pheasant saitl he was the son and clerk of the
plaintiff. lie knew Harris and son, who were corn and
.eed merchants. In July 181 e, his father sold to Read
and Haler several parcels of seeds ; among the parcels
were 29 bales of white clover. Mr. Edward Harris call-

ARTICLES OP THE TRACE.

Mr. DINMAN moved for lea►e to file articles of the
peace on behalf of a gentleman named Barretto, of
Portland-plare, against Lord Viscount Torrington, for
fear of his life, or some grin-one bodily harm. The
exhibitant was a gentleman of colour, a native of the
East Indies, and of rather diminutive stature. It was
sworn in the articles, that, some time siuce, the Noble
Viscount had borrowed of exhihitaut the sum of 1,011411.

as a matter of friendly accommodation. Repeated ap-
plications had been made to the Noble Lord, by ex-
hibitant, for repayment of the money; but receiving
no answer to his letters, he at length instructed his
Solicitor to write to his Lordship, requiring pay went.
This communication produced two letters from his
Lordship, one addressed to exhibitant, and the ether
to the Solicitor. In the former, exhibitant was re-
proached for his want of delicacy in adopting such a
mode of proceeding, which exposed to third persons a
matter of private and personal feeling. lie was re-
minded of favours conferred upon him by the Noble
Lord at Calcutta, and other acts of friendship since
he had been in England, such as endeavouring to
procure him a title, introducing him to Lord Sichnouth,
and causing him to be raised to the honour of an
F. R. S. In the letter to the Solicitor, amongst other
expressions, the Noble Lord, speaking of exhibitant,
said, that but for the disparity of site between thew,
he should have paid him in a more honoura'ile manner,
but he may be assured, that, meet him where I will,
be shall not pass unnoticed." This language exhibitant
construed into a threat of personal violence, and there-
fore exhibited the articles.

Mr. Justice 'IMES and Mr. Justice HOLROTP, the
only Judges In Court, were of opinion that the rue
laid bofure them would not authorise the interposition
of the Court in this manner ; for whatever opinion the
exhibitant might entertain of the language mentioned,
their Lordships must put any other construction upon
it than an intention to commit a breach of the peace,
land therefore the articles could not be bled.
The exhibitans left the Court. and the Learned
Conneel took nothing by his motion.
The remainder of the day was occupied in Special
Juries, none of which were of public interest.

'THE DEFENCE OF INOS AND DAVIDSON.
(Omitted yesterday.)

!rigs spoke as follows :--Centlemen of the Jury, 1 am
n man of no education, and very bumble abilities. It
you will bear me with patience, I will not detain you
lung. I lived in Portsea. I came to London in the'lle-
ginning of May, 1819. 1 cause with my wife and fa-
mily. The reason 1 left Portsmouth was, that I was us-
able to get employ to support my family (here the pri-
soner seemed affected by his feelings]. When 1 cante to
London, I thought I could get employ, hut I was for a
considerable time and could get nothing to do. Know-
ing no►ody I suppose was the reason. I had a few
pounds with me when I came from Portsea. Finding
my money going, 1 did nut know what to do. It did not
go by drinking or gambling. 1 determined to get into
business, and I went up to Baker's row, where I set up
a butcher's shop. I stopped there three months, from
;Midsummer to Michaelmas; the summer bring hot was
against me ; I lost a considerable deal of money in the
course of the summer ; I then took a house in Old Mon-
tague-street, which I opened as a coffee-shop ; in fitting
tip the shop my money was all gone; I did nut take -
ney enough to support my family. I now persuaded my
wife to return to Portsea among her friends, where l
thought she wottld be better than with me in London.—
After my is i.e hail left tue some considerable time, there
was a titan who ivied to tome and take a cup of coffee at
my shop. I had never nothing to do with politics; but
he began to speak about the Manchester massacre. 1
said very little ; 1 always took him to be an officer. R.
came frerrently 'whirr I left the house. Some time after
I met lotto in Smithfield. 1 went there to see if I rout('
get any employ. Ile asked me how I did, and I said
very well. Ile said be had been often to my house, and
askisl me to stand treat. I said it was not in my po ver,
and niy reason was, that I had no money; I added, that
I should he obliged to sell my things. He asked me
what things I hail to sell, and I told him various articles.
He agreed to buy a sofa bedstead. I then went to live in

Mr. MARUTATT, in this case. rose to move for a
rule to show cause why the Vi•r•liet should not he set

artiun to recover damages for the pnblication of a li-

before dlr. Baron narrow. 1 here wre two defend-
ants; and it appeared that they had addressed a joint
letter to the plaintiff, rontaining matter. with reg.:rul
to which there was no question----it was dearly li-
bellous; but a se..und paper haul also been brought
forward, which was by uu means equally libellous.
Several of the circumstances also were very different
in their application to the two defendants. Against
one, various acts of iidustrions ptiblieotion haul been
Pored. whilst no similar evidence had been adduced
with regard to the other. The Jury bad, however,
found a rennet for no less a sum than 2,000/. in fa-
vour of the plaintiff. At the trial he load contended,
that ;is there was no evidence a refine. one of the ale.
fenalo•its, rxrept that he hail jointly signed a letter of
contents, which haul been sealed and deli-
s-reed to the plaintifs servant, this was no sufficient
evidence of puldiration. The Learned Judge, how-

.111 LES EX SESSIONS.

A hrntal felbiw, named 31`Carthy, was yesterday in-
dicted for having co tttttt itted a violent assault upon
his master. Leake, Msq. of timsvenor-place.
It appeared from the evidence, that Mr. Leak.. had
hired the defendant as coachman four days previous to
that on which the assault was committed. The de-
fendant had orders get the carriage in readiness to
take his master and Mrs. Stackpule, his master's
daughter, to lianover-square, at four o'clock. An huur
after the time directed, the defendant appeared in the
1111114 e in a t disgraceful state of drunkenness.-
31r. !wake ordered the coachman from his presence;
and finding that lie was intolerably abusive, as well as
drunk, shut him out at the stable-door. Soon after-
wards tin• defendant walked round to the hall-door,
and knocked. The moment the door was opened he
fit upon the servants and beat them most unmerci-
fully. Mr. Le ike went into the hall to request that
he would leave the house; but the fellow attacked his
master furiously, and disfigured him about the face.
3lrs. Stackpole ran to the spot where the defendant
was in the act of assaulting his master, hut 31'earthy,
instead of desisting at her appearance from further
violence, only transferred his blows from her father to
herself, and seemed to take greater pleasure in this
more cowardly exhibition of his streng h and ferocity.
Ile pulled the necklace and other ornaments from Mrs.
Starkpole's person, knocked her down, and kicked her
hi the sumach. The lady still lies dangerously ill, in
consequence of this ill treatment.

The Jury fonnd M‘tarthy liuilty.
The UnstanAx advis►d Mr. Andrews to Impress
upon Mr. Leak, the necessity of prustenting the de-
fendant fur the assault upon Mrs. Steel:pole, in the
event of the recovery of that lady, and said, that the
punishment upon cunvietiun, shjuld be a bosun to
Jl•Carthr fur lifu.

Mr. Leaks said, that no haman power should pre-
rent it.

The CHAIUMAY then told the .defendant, that he
should abstain fruit, making any comment upon his
conduct moil the indictment fur the assault upon Mrs.
Staekpole should be before the Conn. In the mean
time he sentenced the coachman, for the assault upon
Mr. healer, to imprisonment for two months, and to
End security for his t,•oud behaviour towards that lien-
tlentan fur 12 months. .

A scene of the most lively description was witnessed
at Darlington on Tuesday last, in consequence of Mr.
Landoon haring accepted an invitation to dine with his
friends resident in that town and its vicinity upon that
day. Great numbers of persons west to meet him on the
road leading to Carlton-hall, where he had been upon a
visit_ to Alt.. Barret, M. P.; and he was drawn amidst
joyous acclamations to Mr. Scott's, the King's !lead Inn.
About four o'clock a numerous party sat down to din-
' ner. %4r. Lambion was in the ('hair, and S. M. Barrett,
Esq. M. P., for Richmond, Vice. Un the right of the
Chairman were Martuaduke Wyrill, Esq., M. P. fur

moved, thel'hairtnaiu Rare, _ _

" The King, and may he never forget the principles
which seated his fatuity on the throne."
"The Independence of the County of Durham."
Mr. BARRETT, AS Vice-Claairtnan, next ruse and said,
that as " The Independence of the County of Durham"
had been drank, the most proper toast to follow it would
be, the Champion of that independence. The lion.
Gentleman delivered an eloquent and impassioned en-
logium on the public and private character of the Chair-
man, with whom lie stated he had been lune on terms
of the closest intimacy, and concluded by proposing—
.' Mr. Lanibtom the able sod eloquent advocate of our
Independence," with three times three.
Mr. I..‘mwros ruse amidst land plaudits, and when
silence was obtained, said, that he felt extremely obliged
by the very flattering manner in which they had distin-
guished him. There was no reward which Kings and
Courts could bestow on him equal to that which lie had
received from a people united in defence of their liberties;
and lie should he dead to every sintimext of gratitude, if
he did not maintain their rights to the last moment of
his life.—(Applause.)—After sonic further remarks, in
the conese of whirh be expressed his confidence that the
county would never wait an independent candidate, and
that it no one could be found elsewhere when he was gone,
his fat.iily would always supply one. He adverted to, the
Clergy, and particularly to Alr. I.e Alesurier, 6T whom,
he said, that if ever any man had met with his deserts,
that Reverend Gentleman hail sort with his, in the ex-
posure of his conduct, and the universal reprobation
which that conduct had experienced. He had wantonly
attacked some of the most respectable gentlemen in the
county. It was true they had not distinguished them-
selves by writing pactipheti, by passionately striking
boys, or 'by etitab:ishing a new system of agriculture by
