THE STATESMAN.

LONDON:

SATURDAY. JULY 18, 1818.

We should be warranted in believing, without any
direct -evidence to particular facts, that it could be
no trivial or single circumstance,• however painful
and irritating in its nature, which could call forth
written complaints from a man of NAPOLEoN BONA.
rARTE's heroic spirit, which sustained without a mur-
mur the severities and the disasters of the Russian
climate and campaign. The treatment which this
really Illustrious Person, illustrious and interesting
in the midst of all his reverses and adversities, in
sustaining in his remote and deserted captivity at St.
Helena; appears not to be the least of 'his misfortunes.
It is certainly a proof of no ordinary mind, of a
strength of reason seldom the lot of mortals, to be
able to sustain with equanimity the loss of such a
sceptre as NAPOLEON one wielded—but it may re.
quire greater patience, perhaps, to bear for years the
insolence of coscomical pride, " drest op in a little
brief authority," and suing that power to heap un.
merited indignity or inflict unnecessary privation,
upon men of worth and incorruptible integrity.—
The most illustrioss and important prisoner that ever
England bad in custody, and with whose name her
honour is indelibly associated, has been kept for three
years in the" unhealthy barn" of Longwood, though
the materials of an expensive habitation, large, and
we were told sufficient in every respect for an
Emperor's accommodation, have been lying rot-I
ting on the Island of St. Helena. Is it 're-
tard to suppose that any reasonable man
would voluntarily prefer living in a barn or a
pig-sty, of which he complains, were the comforts of
a palace io his option ? Lord BATHOWIT, with all
his unfeeling and miserable attempts at ridicule, will
wot easily convince us of this. The unworthy con-
' duct pursued to this great fall's enemy will be an
everlasting disgrace to the British name. It has been
sit far extended to the few friends and attendants of

I speedy Dissolution of Parliament. It is new con.
fidenttr stated in' he political circles, that this event
is even netrer than was anticipated. It is asserted,
that Pediment will be dissolved in the course of
the present week. The prorogation is to take place
on Thursday, and Saturday is assigned for the dim.
lotion. Other reports name Monday. Whatever
truth may be in these rumours, a pretty general opinion
prevails, that the present House of Commons will,
not reassemble after the recess. At the same time,
we see it stated that Monday sennight is the day
to which Parliament will adjourn for the Holidays
on Thursday nest. It will certainly not Word with
the ideas we hese formed of the policy of the present
Ministers, who are tally aware of the unpopularity
of their late conduct towards the country, should
tcrey resolvion this appeal to the sentiments-of tbp
People in the present temperament of the public mind.
Hut they probably imagine their Church building
scheme will so far make their peace on earth, and
plead for the supporters of imprisonments and the
Clergy, that they may not leer a dissolution. Let
the Public beware of this snare upon the consciences
of men.

Yesterday presented a most captivating scene and
excellent entertainment. On the lawn were erected
twelve marquees, in each of which there were two
tables; the visitants were also accommodated in about
the same Humber of alcoves. In the centre stood a
Chinese orchestra, and to the left a platform, capa-
ble of receiving four sets of quadrille dancers ; it had
an awning of fret-work, with festoons of oak and
laurel branches at (besides ; the litter gave the whole
a pastoral elfect.
The company were net all minor stars of fashion,
but actually leaders of the ton. The garden contained
an assemblage of not fewer than 800 persons,
in rank, character, dress, &c., presenting infinite
variety.
The scene was at its zenith about three o'clock ;
Dancing soon after commenced, and by six o'clock
the music had lost none of it; inspirations; indeed it
was a dejeutte et.lo-fourchette with many. Messrs.
Gow, jun. and Weippert, jun. led the band. At
five o'clock, when the stars left us, every avenue vas
choked up by dashing equipages. Whilst they were
drawing up, the Peacock, studded with a thousand
dazzling emeralds, saluted the company with the
splendour of his magic mirror, in which he seemed to
multiply himself with the rays of the sun.
Popular predilection never thew so flattering a
picture ; and Mr. Newbolt, the proprietor, who,

gance, has dune much; and promises to do more.

man, was yesterday charged Kith attempting to ob-
tain by fraudulent nieces, the sum of 1111. from the
banking-house of Sir John Perrin` and Co. Lombard•
street. A Lady named Fogget, residing in Peter.
street, Bloomsbury, had a draft upon the house of
Sir J. Perring and Co. for 1111. On Friday lest,
she went to the Bank to get.iicashert, but on her ar-
rival, she discovered that she idti.va it by/the way.
The clerk% were informed of the circunilthinci, and
directions were given for the detention of any person
presenting the drift for payment. Yesterday morn-
ing the draft in question was presented by the Pri-
soner. The clerk after examining the instrument,
observed, that it was tint endorsed ; opon which, the
Prisoner taking up a pen, said he would perform that
ceremony immediately ; but he was presented. lie
was then asked how the daft came into his posses.
sion, as the peyote's( had been stopped. The Pri-
soner at this became much confused, and, in en agi-
tated tone said, " She has stopped it has she ?Then
I lira ton late." The Clerk then seized the Pri•
sorter, and detained him until an officer arrived to
take charge of him.
The Loan Matoa asked the Prisimer what he
had to say in answer to the charge?
‘Valkely, who seemed to treat the' matter with
much levity, said he could very easily :eaplain the
affair; but this must be in private. •

Indorse the draft, as you were about to do, your

LONDON:

WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER ill 1818•

The Bank, it seems, finds it no longer protlent to
resist public opinion, and to press for blood. The
late verdicts at the Old Bailey hese bad the salutary
effect of cresting a pause in the sanguinary career of
the blood cemented system. The remaining indict-
menu for ',tiering forged Notes hese been with-
drawn% and the Public are greeted in the meantime
with the consolation, that " the Bank of England
will Wu* a new Note of much more difficult imi-
tation than the preseut,early in the next year." We
greatly doubt whether the Public *ill gain mach by this

COURTS or JUSTICE 1N -SCOTLAND.

The Commissioners appointed to enquire into the
Duties, Salaries, and Emoluments, of the several
Officers of the Courts in Scotland, have made their
Third Report. It relates solely to the constitution
and practice of the Sheriffs end Commissary Courts,
and to the fees and emoluments of the Judges and
Officers belonging to those Courts, which are de.
tailed under different heeds. The most, and indeed
the only important alteration suggested by the Com-
missioners ill this Report, is the abolition of the
whole of the inferior Commissary Courts, and plat.
ing the sole jurisdiction in the Consistorial Court of
Edinburgh, under one Chief Jude, to whorl they
propose to allow a salary of train 12001. to 15001. per
ann., so that he m gh► d, vote his whole time and at.
tetition to •he duties of the office. This, they state,
would afford a prospective saving to the Public, after
the demise of the persons who now hold the inferior
appointments.
In the details of the fees and emoluments of the
Sheriff-Clerks of the different Counties, en office of
considerable trust sod responsibility, it appears that
till within thyse few years this important appointment
has been a matter of traffic, and that the office of Prin.
child Sheriff-Clerk has uniformly been sold by his
Majesty's Keeper of the Signet in Scotland, which,
during the present reign, has almost been an here.
dilary office in the family of Dundas. Several of
the Sheriff-Clerks somewhat reluctantly state the
sums they paid for their appointments, while others
complain so much of the enormous prices demanded,
that, after paying their Deputies, and the expence of
insuring their lives, so as ultimately to secure to their
families the consideration-money paid for the no•
mina/ion, they were actually losers by the transac-
tion. It will scarcely be credited, that the present
Lord Melville, during the period that he held the
lucrative place of Keeper of the Signet, received up-
wards of TittutY Ttionsoto POUNDS for the sale of
Sheriff-Clerkships only, independent of the salary
and other emoluments of the office, amounting to up.
wards of 3,0001. a year.
The Commissioners, on this pert of their Report,
add, " that on account of the manifold evils result.
ing from the sale of these offices, which had come to
be very generally felt, and were Publicly adverted to
by the Supreme Court, the power of making these no-
minations was expressly excepted in the Commission
granted to the present Keeper of the Signet, on the
13th of August, 1814, and reserved, as formerly, to
his Majesty's PrinCipal Secretary of State."—Mr.
%Vm. Dundas is now the Keeper of the Signet, and
though the office is shorn of so large a part of its for-
mer perquisites as the nomination of the Sheriff-Clerk-
ships, his Noble Relation, on reigning it, stipu-
lated for, and actually receives, 10001. a year as a
sleeping partner in the Sinecure!

To TOE EDtl 1R or THE STATESMAN.
Sig,—Heavy as the afflictions and miseries have
been which some of our fellow-creatures have suffer-
ed, I know of none more deeply afflicting to the
feeling mind than those which are the subject of this
letter. The treatment of many of the Insane Patients
In Private Mad-houses has been so bad, that the
sufferings of the Negroes in that most dreadful part
of their captivity, the voyage from Africa to the
West Indies, has not exceeded their's. They have
been kept for months continually chained in hollow
wooden beds, called bins, until their limbs were con-
tracted and useless for want of attendants to get them
up, dressed, and exercised. The Patients that have
been sent by the Overseers of the Poor, in particular,
have been subject to all manner of. ill-usage. One
case came to my knowledge, of a female being beaten
so as to occasion death ; another, of a man having
the scrotum partly torn from his.body ; and in both
these cases the masters retained in their service the
persons who had been guilty of these enormities.
The situation of one bemired and fifty persons,
shut up within a close building, and a yard twenty
'yards long and seven or eight broad, with high walls
preventing the free circulation of air, is truly dis-
tressing ; but in these cases there most be added to
that the confinement of straight waistcoats, fetters,
and chains ; the pot rid smells arising from the persons
of those afflicted with bodily as well as mental le-
firmity ; together with the ill-usage of those appoint-
ed to superintend them, which iltegether forms such
a catalogue of human misery, that it is difficult to
bear the contemplation of it. Yet such is the si-
tuation of hundreds of infants persons in this me-
tropolis.
I have stated in this and a former letter fear cases,
two of ill•uiege and two of false haprisoetneut,
which may serve as a sample of many. Whether the
treatment of these afflicted persons is consistent with
that philanthropic benevolence which ought to dis-
tinguish and ornament a Christian nation, Ist the
Reader judge.
I remain, Sir, your obedient servant,

SistrwascL AT GUERNSEY.--The following are
farther particulars of the fatal event that happened at
Guernsey last week, relative to the shipwreck of the
foreign vessel that was thrown on the rocks near the
harbour of St. Peter's Port, in one of those violent
gales of wind that have continued almost constantly
to blow for near three weeks past in these islands:—
When the vessel struck, the crew with difficulty got
on three of the rock•, and in this perilous situation
they were seen from t.►e shore, when Captain Di.
bree, of the Royal Nary, made a generous effort to
save them. Ile procured a boat with six men, and
proceeded to their relief ; be succeeded in getting the
na•ter sod two men it►, when a tremendous sea broke
owe. boat and sunk her ; all who were in her
were drowned, e►cept two, who saved themselves on
the rock ; and thus Captain Dobree and four of the
boatmen have perished, in a noble devotion to the
cause of humanity. The others who were on the
rocks got on shore at low water. The dead body of
a man was found last week in the bay of St. Ouen's;
it appears t.► have been a considerable time i►t the
water, as it was in a state of putrefaction when
taken. out.

LONDON:

MONDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1818.

The accounts which we give in our Paper of this
day of the trials for forging Bank-notes, which took
place at the Old Bailey on Saturday, will be found of
the highest interest. The nation has been shocked
and disgusted with prosecutions on the part of the
Bank—with the system of spies and espionage par.
sued to supply the more honourable and necessary
means of detection—and with the sacrifices of human
life for a crime which it has been the duty of the
Bank Directors to endeavour to check by other
means, and which it is the universal opinion they
might have rendered much more difficult of perpetra-
tion and less injurious to society, long ago. The
good sense and humanity of Juries were the anti

8. Norfolk.streel. Strand. Sept. 9.
M• LORD,—When I delivered to your Lordship the Remon-
strance unanimously agreed to at the Meeting held in Palace.
yard. on 91maluy last, addressed to the Prince Regent, you
promised me that you %V 011 Id read it over, and if it did not eon.
lain any iniproper language, you would deliver it into the
hands of his Royal Highness, and that you would give one an
answer in the course of three days.
Late last evening I received a letter, signed Henry Clive.
which states, that your Lordship had instructed him to say, that
• you did not think y onnielf at liberty to lay Alcmene before the
Prince Regent, because it purported tn tie " the Declaration
and Remorearance of the Inhabitants of the Cities of London
and Westmiaster, and parts adjacent, which description was
evidently and notoriously untrue."
Now, my Lord, by what means your Lordship ascertained •
the fact that the persons aho attended the Meeting in Palace.
yard were not inhabitants of London and Westminster, and
parts adjacent. 1 know nut ; but this l do know. that those
persons who proposed and seconded "the Declaration of our
manifoldGrievarires, and the Remonstrance against the cruel,
and unconstitutional arts of the laming se** and ****
that had been so long iaipased upon his Royal highness the
Prince Regent by the great and overwhelming Borough Pro-
prietors of this Country, Itc. were inhabitants of the Cities of
London and Westminster, and parts adjacent ; and l believe
that almost the whole of the 5 or 6,000 persons at the Meeting,
who unanimously sanctioned the same, were also inhabitants of
London and Westminster, and parts adjacent. However, as
your Lordship has declined to deliver the Declaration and Re-
--monstrance to his Ro,al Highness the Prince Regent, 1 will
trouble your Lordship to return me the original document that I
left with you, that I way, agreeable to the instruction of that
Meeting, take some other mettiod of laying it before his Royal
Highness the Prince Regent.
