Vol. LXXXVI. No. 52. f Ready Money is expected } ) with Advertisements. S SATURDAY, February 28, 1807. Sunday and Tuesday's Posts. I. ONDOIN GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, Sunday, February 23. ADMIRALTY - OFFICE, Feb. 21. CAPTAIN Lydianl, of his Majesty's ship the Anson, arrived here with dispatches from Vice- Admiral Dacrcs, Commander in Chief of bis Majesty's ships and vessels at Jamaica, to William Marsden, Esq. of which the following are topies:— SIR, Shark, Port- Royal, Jan. 11th, 1807. I have much satisfaction in congratulating my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty on the capture of the Island of Curacoa, on New- Year's t) av, in the morning, by the four frigates named iu " the margin*, under the orders of Captain Brisbane, of the Arethusa, a copy of whose letter 2 inclose for their Lordship's information. Whilst I contemplate the immense strength of the harbour of Amsterdam, and the superior force contained in its different batteries opposed to the entrance of the frigates, I know not how suffi- ciently to ad nil e the decision of Captain Brisbane in attempting the harbour, and the determined bravery and conduct displayed by himself, the other three ( Captains, and all the officers and men under his command; and is another strong instance » f the cool and determined bravery of British learner. Captain Brisbane being, from his situation, ofitiged to act as Governor, I have, as an « cteo*- ledgemcnt and high approbation of his conduct, continued him in that situation till his Majesty's pleasure shall be known; and request, in the strongest manner, that their Lordships will be pleased to recommend him for that appointment. Captain Lydiard ( who will have the honour of delivering this, and who fully partook of the eonquest, and has before distinguished himself off ' the llavannah) I beg to refer their Lordships to for any information. 1 shall put an acting Captain into the Anson until his return, or I receive di- rections thereon. ( Signed) J. R. D AC RES. • Arethusa, Latona, Anson, and Fisgard. SIR, Arethusa, Curacoa, January 1. It is with the most lively and heartfelt satisfac- tion I have the honour' to inform you, that his Majesty's squadron under my command has this dav opened the new year with what I humbly flatter myself will be deemed an enterprize of considerable importance to iny country. I proceeded in the execution of your orders the S9th of November with every possible avidity; but the adverse winds and current prevented nie from reaching this island before the first instant. In my way up I met Captain Bolton, of the I'isgard, going to Jamaica; 1 took him under my orders, according to your directions* and proceeded with the squadron off this port, having previously re- solved on that system of attack which British seamen are so capable of executing. My ar- rangements having been previously made known to the respective Captains, I was satisfied nothing further remained for me than to put it iu exocu- tion. My line of battle consisted of the Arcthus'a, Latona, Anson, and Eisgurd; and, very soon after the break of day, 1 made all possible sail with the ships in close order of battle, passing the whole extensive line of sea batteries, and an- chored the squadron in a style far surpassing my expectations. Being still desirous of having the « ffusion of human blood spared, 1 w rit the en- closed, No. 1. on the capstan of his Majesty's ship Arethusa, during the action, which was not rczarded, as they did their utmost to destroy tis. Words cannot express the ability of the squadron. The harbour was defended by regular fortifications of two tier of guns, Fort Amsterdam alone con- sisting of sixty- six picces of cannon; the entrance only fifty yards wide, athw art which was the Dutch frigate Hatslar, of thirty- six guns, and Surinam, of twenty- two, w ith two large schooners of war, one commanded by a Dutch commander; a chain of forts was on Miselburg commanding height; and that almost- impregnable fortress Fort Re- publiquc, within the distance of grape- shot, en- filading the whole harbour. At a quarter past six o'clock, we entered the port; a severe and destructive cannonade ensued; the frigate, sloop, and schooners, were carried by boarding; the lower forts, the citadel, and town of Amsterdam, by storm: all of which, by seven o'clock, were in our possession. For humanity's sake, I granted the annexed capitulation, arid, at tcu o'clock, the British flag was hoisted in Eort Republique. The whole island is in our quiet fossession. The strength, commerce, and value, understand, is immense. It is now become a pleasing part of my duty, although impossible to do justice to the merits, gallantry, and deter- mination of Captains Wood, Lydiard, and Bolton, who so nobly headed their respective ships' com- panies to the storm; and the same gallantry and determination are due to the officers, seamen, and marines, for following up so glorious an example. Inclosed is a list of the killed and wounded in his Majesty's squadron. I have not yet been able to ascertain that of the enemy, except those in the ships. The Dutch Commodore was killed early in the action, and the Captain of the Surinam se- verely wounded. 1 have appointed, by procla- mation, Wednesday next, the 7th instant, for the inhabitants ( which amount to 30,000), to take the oath of allegiance to our most gracious Sovereign ; those that do not choose will be instantly embarked as prisoners of war. For any further particulars, 1 must refer you to that gallant officer Captain Lydiard. I have the honour to he, & c. ( Signed) CHARLES BRISBANE. To J. R. Dacrcs, Esq. Vice- Admiral of the White. No. 1. SIR, Arethusa, Curacoa Harbour, Jan. 1. The British squadron are here to protect, and not to conquer you; to preserve to you your lives, liberty, and property. If a shot is fired at any one of my squadron after this summons, I shall immediately storm your batteries. YOB have five miuutes to accede to this determination. 1 have, & c. CHARLES BRISBANE. To his Excellency the Governor of Curacoa. [ Here follow the Articles of Capitulation, by which it was agreed that the garrisons of Fort Re- publique and Curacoa should be prisoners of war, and be sent by his Britannic Majesty to Holland, not to serve this war before they shall be regularly exchanged. The civil officers, merchants, planters, and other inhabitants, to be respected in their per- sons and property, provided they take the oath of allegiance to his Britannic Majesty. Three seamen were killed and 14 wounded on board the four English frigates.] By C. Brisbane, Esq. senior Officer of his Ma- jesty's ships at Curacoa, & c. His Excellency Lieutenant- Genera"! Changuion, Governor and Commander in Chief of the Island of Curacoa, and its dependencies, having refused • t » taks tht oath of allegiance to his Britannic Ma- jesty, and surrendered himself prisoner of war, I have thought proper to appoint myself Governor of the said island and its dependencies, until the pleasure of the Commander in Chief is made known; and I do hereby appoint myself accord- ingly.— Given under my hand at Curacoa, this 4th day " of January, 1807. C. BRISBANE. [ The Gazette concludes with Capt. Brisbane's address to the inhabitants, requiring them to meet on the 7th of January, at the Government House, to take the oath of allegiance to his Britannic Majesty; with assurances of protection and favour, and that the happiness and welfare of the inhabi- tants of the island and its dependencies weuld be promoted.] L O N D U N, February 24. On Friday last, Mr. Grenville presented at the bar of the House of Commons, the warrant issued by the Board of Admiralty, for the arrest of Capt. Sir Home Popham, ( a Member of that House); together with the order issued by the Board, for bringing Sir Home to trial by a Court- Martial, for having sailed without orders for the river La Plate, and attacked the town of Buenos Ayres with the armament under his command. But as it was not thought fit that ht should be subject to greater confinement than was necessary, he was allowed to be at large, on giving his honour to appear at the time of his trial.— An order was made that the same be entered on the journals of the House. The trial of Sir II. Popham is fixed for Monday next, on board a flag- ship at Portsmouth. The Court will consist of nine Admirals and four Post- Captains. The Slave Trade Abolition Bill was taken into consideration yesterday in the House of Commons. A debate of considerable length took place; and at half past four o'clock this morning, the House divided— For the Abolition 283 Against it Iti Majority — 267 Catholic Meeting.— In consequence of a re- quisition to that effect, a meeting of the Catholics took place, the Jfth instant, at the Rotunda, in Dublin. Lord fingal in the chair. The draft of a petition to Parliament was read, in which the claims of the Catholics were stated, when Lord French moved, by way of amendment, that a de- cision 011 the question be postponed for three weeks, in order to give the Catholics of the country time and opportunity for delivering their opinions. The amendment was, however, rejected, and the petition was ordered to be prepared substantially according to the draft which was read, and the Committee directed to submit it to the perusal and amendment of an aggregate meeting, to be held the 2( 3th, It is said to have been intiinnted to the meeting, that the army and navy would be fully open to the Catholics, but that Govern' ment strongly disapproved of the agitation of the question.

Wednesday and Thursday's Posts. LONDON, February 26. SEVERAL mails arrived yesterday from the Continent"; they bring intelligence of impor- tance from the seat of war, which is given in such RII official form as to leave little doubt of its ac- curacy to a certain extent. The following brief summary is extracted from the Abeille du Nurd of the 13th inst. being the substance of an official account published at Elbing, on the eastern mouth of the Vistula, on the 29th of January. « Marshal Bemadotte was defeated on the 26th • of January, near Morringen, with the loss of 4000 men, 10 pieces of cannon, and 2 standards. The remainder of his corps is Completely surrounded; and it was the intention of the allied army to bring on a general engagement. The King of Prussia had returned to Koningsburgh ; his troops took possession ef Marienwerder, and the Russians of Culm; they also raised the siege of Graudentz.— Accounts from Warsaw, of the 29th of January, state, that many of the French troops had re- crossed the Vistula to go into winter quarters in Silesia." The Counsellor Thcveust writes as follows to the Government of Dantzic. His dispatch is dated Marienwerder, ( hi Prussia) January 27: — " On the 24th and 25th of January, two actions took place at Morringen, in which the divisions of Ney and Bernadotte were almost entirely destroyed or dispersed, and the remains of the latter officer's corps is cut otf. Murat is wounded and taken, Bernadotte is severely wounded, Rapp killed, and General Fourbier made prisoner. " Bonaparte is ill at Warsaw of a nervous fever. The Polish insurgents are in a wretched condition. The contributions of Elbing, amounting to 60,000 crowns, are re- taken atMorriugen, with the entire equipage of Bernadotte. " The blockade of Graudentz is raised; the bridge of Thorn has been carried awVty by the ice, . which renders the passage of the French across the Vistula very difficult. " Lannes has lost both his'legs; 6000 Freneh are killed, and 4000 wounded. The victory was obtained by the arrival of the two corps of Ben- ningsen and L'Estocq. A general engagement is expected. General Victor, who has been made prisoner, is arrived at Dantzic." All the Danish reports agree as to the principal fact, that Bernadotte was defeated at Morringen, and that the junction between him and Ney was - prevented. In the 54th bulletin it is mentioned that a number of light battalions belonging to Ney's division returned to their cantonments, after marching twenty leagues ant| alarming the right • wing of the Russian army, it is not said, what the object of this extensive excursion was, and an equal silence is preserved as to the circumstances which compelled the expedition to return. It was, no doubt, occasioned by the defeat of Bernadotte, and if the junction had not been prevented, both divisionswptjld have appeared before Koningsburgh; perhaps advanced to ISlemel. A private letter from Altflna, dated February 13, domains the following intelligence:- Cheap, Safe, and Superior Travelling. THE LIGHT NORTHAMPTON COACH, EVERYDAY, CARRYING TOUR IKSIDES.

Mortier was his principal agent in these dark and insidious nego- tiations, in which Napoleon promised to reward Swedish perfidy with Norway, which belongs to Denwark,' with which power the French feign to lie on such a friendly feoting. These base terms were patiently heard, and transmitted to the Court of Malmoe, but, being only verbal, tlie. Swedish Cabinet sent orders to have them in writing, which request was also complied with. Hereupon the Swedish Monarch sent copies of the perfidious offers not only to the Courts in alliance with him, hut even to his neighbour, the Danish Court, who will now plainly perceive what it is to be the friend of such a being as Bonaparte. Suffice it to say, that the terms were scornfully rejected by the Swedish Monarch, who sent for an answer, the following laconic lines: ' I shall never in my life become the ally of such a robber as you !' This anecdote is authentic, and communicated from a most unexceptionable source. " Not only with Sweden, but even with the Emperor of Germany, Napoleon uses the same diabolical intrigues of state, hut with as little • uccess. By respectable private- advices from Vienna, of the lsc inst. the Hungarian army was arrived, in great part, over the Carpathian moun- tains, on the confines of Gallicia; and all the temptations, and alluring baits, held out by the great dispoiler of morality and mankind, are re- jected by the Austrian Court. As the latter has paid up all the arrears of the contributions due to the French, the fortress of Brannau will, it is said, be delivered up again." Dispatches have been at last received from Lord flutchinson. They arrived yesterday tinder charge of Mr. Jackson, our late Minister at the Court of Berlin. Any particulars which they contain have not transpired; but they are said to confirm the statements of the advantage gained hy the Rus- sians at Morringen ; and to afford a very satis- factory account of the condition, strength, and position of the Russian and Prussian armies. The Gazette of Tuesday contains a list of 48 fillips of war iflid private armed vessels, captured and destroyed by his Majesty's squadron on the Jamaica station, commanded by Admiral Dacrcs, during the year 180G. And a letter from Captain Carteret, of the Scorpion sloop, stating the cap- ture of the Bougainville, French privateer, of 16 guns, and 93 men. On Thursday and Friday last, a cause was tried in the Court of King's- Bench, Dublin, which, from the extensive connexions of the parties in the higher circles, excited much interest. Lord Clon- eurry brought an action against Sir John Bennet Piers, Bart, to recover a compensation for crim. ooti. with Lady C. The Jury found a verdict for his Lordship, with twenty thousand pounds damages. Shocking Accident.— On Thursday last, a child belonging to Mr. Wright, bookseller, Broad- street, St. CUes's, was burnt to death in the following dreadful manner:— As she and her sister were amusing themselves in the kitchen, dressing their dolls, with a candle plaeed on a chair beside them, she had occasion to stand upon the chair to take down a work- hag hanging on the wall, when her clothes caught fire. Her sister was so terrified, that she could render her no assistance. The child whose clothes caught fire, ran up the kitchen stairs, in appearance like a ball of flames, where her mother and grandmother met her.— The feelings of the mother can b « better conceived than expressed. Sibe was so overcome with the shock, that she was rendered wholly incapable of giving any assistance. — The screams attracted the attention of several people passing at the moment; when a woman / ashed in, wrapped her in her cloak, and extin- guished the flames, which by this time had extended ^ o her whole body. Her ears were burnt almost to a cinder. She lingered in the most excruciating agony for upwards of forty hours, when she breathed her last. — The Coroner's inquest was held on tha body on Tuesday, and returned a verdict of Hci/ uUrMl Vi3th. All Persons indebted to the said Bankrupt, or that have am of his Effects, are not t ® pay or deliver the same but to whom the Commissioners shall appoint,- but give Notice to Joseph Egerton, Solicitor, Gray's Inn- square, London; or Richard Lyndon Rolls, Soli- citor, Southam, Warwickshire.

JOHN HODSON, Clerk to the said Trustees. Friday and Saturday's Posts. LONDON, February 27. THE King of Prussia, it appears, is exerting every nerve to preserve what yet remains lo him of his kingdom, and recover what he has lost. The Princes of the Blood are raising Volunteer Regiments in Poland and Silesia; and if credit may be given to so many letters all concurring to the same report, the affairs of this Monarch begin to wear a promising aspect. The loyalty of the Prussian and Silesian ^ peasantry is said to have ex- ceeded the most sanguine expectations; and not to be in any degree inferior to that which, in a former war, was exhibited by tiie Tyrolese towards the House of Austria. Mr. Jackson, who has arrived with dispatches from Lord Hutchinson, brings with him from the Continent the conditions of the treaty of peace feetween the Courts of London and Berlin, which are so much to the satisfaction of both, and in such forwardness, that the formality of ratification is alone wanting to its being confirmed. Although, in the present state of affairs, this instrument may be considered bv some as a mere formality, inasmuch as the essentials pf peace, even to the extent of warlike co- operatiort, exist in point of fact between both countries ; yet let it be remembered, that in this critical moment, when Prussia has lost almost every thirtg except her honour, it is the strongest and most satisfactory ft pledge that can he given by that State, that no ' negociation, hostile, or separate from the interests of this country, will, under any circumstance, be entered upon by it with Bonaparte. It is said that the Emperor of Russia, in return for pecuniary assistance, has transmitted to our Government the draft of a commercial treaty, which puts the British trade to the Baltic, on a level with that of the native Russian merchants, from port to port. The greater part of the alien duties, as far as respects Great- Britain, are to be taken off From accounts laid before the House of. Com- mons, it appears, that from 1774 to L768 ( both years included), the annual average consumption of Tea in this country was 4,3l3,92Glbs. From 1797 to 1806, this average increased to 16,981,6421bs. — A similar hut not an equal rise has taken place in the article of Brandy'. The annual average consumption in the former period was 611,905 gallons; and in the latter 1,580,711 gallons. On Saturday last died, in Bath, the Marchioness of Ely, Telict of the late Marquis of Ely, and mother to the present Marquis. In the Court of Exchequer, on Wednesday the 18th inst. an information was tried against the • proprietors of a nettly- established brewery in Southwark, for frauds on the revenue, in the use of certain noxious ingredients mixed with the beer; and a verdict was givc- n for penalties to the amount . of £. 1500.

Wellingborough, % th Fe f. 1807. / JESStas^ LONDON, Feb. 28. OVF. RNMENT, has this morning received dispatches from the River Plate, brought by ! the Nereide. frigate, whidisailed with the squadron under the command of Commodore Stopford. The report is that Monte Video was captured by his Majesty's forces, on the first of January; but no official confirmation of the fact has been sent to the Lord- Mayor.— London Packet. Several private letters from Tonningen and Altona have been received, all of which concur in representing the result of the battle on the 26th of January, at Morringen, as a complete triumph on the part of the Russians. The Swedish Ambassador at the Court of Loudon has received dispatches, stating, that 28 French armed vessels had made an attempt to land a body of troops, in order to take possession of a Swedish fort in the Baltic; but they were so vigorously attacked by a squadron of Swedish gun- brigs, that all the vessels were taken, and also a great portion of the troops which were not able to effect their escape in boats. A petition on behalf of Mr. Paull was on Thurs- day laid upon the table in the House of Commons, charging that attempts had been ' made by the agents of Mr. Sheridan to suborn certain witnesses to keep out of the way from giving evidence before the Committee to try the merits of the Westminster Election.— The Petition was ordered to be taken into consideration on Monday. We understand that Lord Melville is arrived in town on his way ts Portsmouth, having been sum- moned there, in consequence of the trial of Sir Home Popham, which takes place on Monday next. Report says, that while his Lordship was at the head of the Admiralty, he gave unlimited in- structions to Sir H, I'epham, but neglected to enter them in the Admiralty books. His Lord- ship was not at the head of the Admiralty when the expedition sailed. The Court Martial on Sir Home Popliatn, is deferred from Monday to Thursday next. We are happy to state, that none of the unfor- tunate persons hurt at the late execution, and taken alive to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, have died. Several have since been sufficiently recovered to be removed, and no apprehension is enter- tained for the safety of those remaining.— The total number of those who perished is 33. PRICE OF STOCKS.

T Gave tny Harp to SORROW'S hand, - 1 And she has rul'd the chords so long, They will not speak at my command, They warble oidy to HER song. Of dear departed hours, Too fondly lov'd to last, , „ — The dew, the breath, the bloom of flowers, That died untimely in the blast. Of long, long years of future care ' Till lingering nature yields her breath; And endless ages of despair Beyond the judgment day of death— The weeping Minstrel sings; And while her numbers flow, My Spirit trembles thro' the strings, And every note is full ot woe. Would GLADNESS move a sprightlier strain, And wake this wild Harp's clearest tones; The strings, impatient to complain, Are dumb, or only utter moans. And yet to soothe the mind With luxury of . grist, The soui, to suffering all resign'd. In SORROW'S music feels relict. Thus, o'er the light iEolian lyre, The winds of dark November stray, Touch the quick nerve of every wire, And on its magic pulses play j Till all the air around, Mysterious murmurs fill, — A strange bewildering dream of sound, Most heavenly sweet— yet mournful still. O snatch the Harp from SORROW'S hand, HOPE, who hast been a stranger long:— O strike it with sublime command. And be the POET'S Life thy song! Of vanish'd troubles sing, Of fears for ever fled, _ Of flowers, that hear the voice of Spring, And burst and blossom from the dead! Ot home, contentment, health, repose. Serene delights, while years increase; And weary life's triumphant close 1 n some calm sunset hour of peace Of bliss that reigns above, Celestial May of Youth, Unchanging as JEHOVAH'S love, And everlasting as his truth j— Sing, heavenlv Hope!— and dart thine hand O'er my frail Harp, untun'd so long; That Harp shall breathe, at thy command, Immortal sweetness thro' thy song.* Ah ! then this gloom controul, And at thy voice shall start A new Creation in my Soul, And a new Eden in my heart! . mHtM^ KKSS***"" 1 OLD- BAILEY, Friday, February 20. MURDER OF MR. STEEL. . Tohn Holloway, alias Oliver, alias Long Will, and Owen Haggerty night Hollinvaj brought the hat in a handkerchic- f, bowing to the right and left, addressed the mob and we went to Westminster Bridge, filled the hat in a firm and loud tone of voice to the following ana uwen naggcev, alias Eggertv, were indicted for the wilful murder of Mr. Steel, in the month of November, 1802, upon Hounslow- Ileath. Thomas Meyer, brother- in- law of the deceased, Henry Manby, and Win. Hughes, described the manner in which the body of the deceased was found buried near a clump of trees on the Heath; and Henry Frogley, a surgeon, described the wounds he found upon the body when lie examined it, one of which, an extensive fracture m the lore part of his head, he had no doubt, was the imme- diate cause of death. Benjamin Han held, the accomplicc, was next examined, the record of his pardon having been first read, without which his deposition could not have been taken. The. pardon, however, only applied to the offence for which he was suffering at the time he made the confession on board the hulks at Portsmouth. He deposed nearly as follows :— I have known Haggerty eight or nine years, and Hollowav six or seven. We were accustomed to meet at " the Black- Horse and furk's- Head public- houses in Dyot- street. I was in their company m the month of November, 1302. Hollowav, just before the murder, called me out from the I urk s- Hr. ad and asked me if I had any objection to be in a good thing? I replied t had not. He said it was a " ATo Toby," meaning a footpad robbery. I asked when and where. He said he would let know. We parted, and two days after we met and Saturday the 6th of November was I asked who was to go with us. He ine again appointed. _ — replied that Haggerty had agreed to make one. They all three met on the Saturday at the black- Horse, when Ilolloway said, our business is to « vTwe" a Gentleman on Hounslow- lieatb, who I understand travels that way with property.— We then drank for three or four hours, and about the middle of the day we set off for Hounslow. We stopped at a public- house, the Bell, and took some porter. We proceeded from thence upon the road towards Beltout, and expressed Our hope good booty. We stopped j with stones, and having tied the lining over it, threw it into the Thames. The witness was then crose examined. He said hc had made no other minutes of the transactions lie had been detailing, than what his conscience took cognizance of. It was accident tiiat led to his disclosure. . lie was talking with other prisoners in Newgate, of particular robberies that hail taken place; and thu Hounslow robbery and murder being stated amongst others, he inadvertently said that there were only three persons who knew ot that transaction. The remark was circulated and observed upon, and a rumour ran through the prison that he was about to turn " nose," and he was obliged to hold his tongue, lest he should be ill- used. Whep at Portsmouth, on board the hulks, the compunctions of conscience came upon him, and he was obliged to dissipate his thoughts by drinking, to prevent him from divulging all he knew. At last lie was questioned by Sir John Carter, and at length an Officer arrived' frou* London, and he made a full confession. He admitted that he had led a vicious life, that he had been concerned in several robberies, and had entered and deserted from several regiments. He had served in tho East and West London Militia, had enlisted into the 9th and 14th Light Dragoon's, and had been in the Army of Reserve, lie added, that he was ashamed and sorry at what lie had been, and would endeavour to mend his life in future. After some witnesses hail been examined, in order to bring the two prisoners and the accomplice together about the time of the robbery and murder, and several Police Officers had been called to shew that they were all three considered to be of reputed bad character and connected, Justice Nares was examined, who gave an ac- count of the several examinations the prisoners underwent before him. In those examinations Il^ ggerty denied any knowledge ef Hollow- ay, and said he had never seen Ilanlield, the accomplice, in all his life. They both denied being at Ilounslow in their lives, or that they had ever entered the Black- Horse, or the Turk's- llead public- houses in Dyot- street. Another head of evidence was to prove that they had been seen at both the public- houses men- tioned, and that they had also been seen in IIoun- slow and its neighbourhood. The next and principal head of evidence was that collected from the prisoners' own tnouths. It appeared that they were confined in separate apart- ments after their separate examinations; but as there was only a slight partition betwixt them, they were enabled to converse together. An Officer had taken the precaution of placing himself in a situ- ation where he could over- hear their crftiversation, and by that means became possessed of every thing they said to each other. They deprecated the villainy of Hanfield, and flattered themselves that the crime could not be brought home to them, and that it was possible that Hanfield might suffer lor his perfidy. They confided to each other that they had denied having any acquaintance with the ac- complice, and, in fact, recapitulated to each other the whole of their examinations. In one of these conversations the following colloquy passed: Hag- gerty—" Where did iie say we parted after the murder r" liolloway—" At Hounslow." Haggerty —" Where did he say we had the gm?" Holloway —" At the Black- Horse in Dyot- street." Haggerty —" We must have had the gin there." A deal more of this conversation was given " in evidence, which only went to confirm the knowledge the prisoners had of the transaction; and the hat, shoes, and bludgeon found upon the Heath, were produced in Court. Holloway, when called upon for his dofcnce, said that Hatifield was a Mrangt. r to him, and he was iunocei. t of the crime allcdgcd against him. II « said Hanfield had accused him to get his own liberty. He then pointed out what he called con- tradictions in his evidence, and called for Mr. Nares to witness for those contradictions. Mr. Nares could see nothing like contradiction in the story tohfby the accomplice. Mr. Justice Le Blanc summed up the evidence in a very clear and perspicuous manner, making Some humane observations upon the nature of the testimony given by accomplices. He was near two hours in his address, and left no point either for or against the prisoners unobserved upon, leaning at all times to the side of mercy. The Jury retired for a few minutes,! when they returned a verdict of Guilty against both the pri- soners. The Recorder passed sentence in the most solemn and impressive way, and the unhappy men were ordered for execution on Monday morning. They went from the bar protesting their inno- eft'ect: " Innocent! Innocent, Gentlemen! No Verdictf No Verdict! Innocent, by G— d !" At this moment, and while in the act of saying some- thing more, the executioner proceeded to do liij office, by placing the cap over his face; to which ceremony he, with apparent reluctance, submitted, wishing to say more to the multitude. This btring denied him,' he continued to repeat the word " Innocent" till the platform fell. The female malefactor, Elizabeth Godfrey, came on the platform attended by the Rev. Dr. Ford, who seemed to afford her much consolation; she was dressed in white. Her figure was inte- resting, and her decent deportment excited much pity in the beholders. She appeared very tranquil, and met her unhappy fate with great fortitude. This unhappy woman never deuiftl the justice of tier sentence, but invariably declared she had not the most remote intention to murder Prince. The ropes being all properly fixed, on a signal from the Clergyman, the drop of the platform was struck away, and they were launched into eternity. The woman was dcael in a few moments; the men struggled much, particularly Holloway. Just before the culprits mounted the scaffold, the feelings of the spectators w ere agitated to a most alarming degree, by the deplorable and piti- ! able situation of a very great number of persons in the crowd ( w hich bad now amounted, according to the best calculation, to nearly 30,000), who, from the extraordinary pressure and other causes, were every moment in danger of being suffocated or trampled to death. In all parts there were con- tinual cries of Murder! Murder! particularly from the female part of the spectators, and young boys, some of whom were seen expiring, without the possibility of the least assistance being afforded them, every one being employed in endeavours to preserve his own life. The most affecting scene of distress was witnessed at the corner of Green- Arbour- Lane, nearly opposite the debtors' door. The terrible occurrence which took place near the spot, is attributed to the ^ circumstance of two Piemen attending there to dispose of their pies, and one of them having his basket overthrown, which stood upon f sort of stool with four leg, some of the mob not being aware of what had happened, aud at the same time severely pressed, fell over the basket and the man, at the moment he was picking it up, together with its contents. Those who once fell were never more suffered to rise, such was the violence of the mob. At this T To Grating Farmers, and all Dealers in Cattle.

While there, the moon gut up, and Hollow ay said we had come too soon. * After loitering about a considerable tune, Hol- loway said he heard a footstep, and we proceeded towards Belfont. We presently saw a man coming towards us, and on approaching him we ordered him to stop, which ho immediately did, Hollowav went round him, and told him to deliver. I le said eve should have his money, and hoped we would not ill- use him. The deceased put his hand m his pocket, and gave Haggerty his money. I demanded his pocket- book. He replied that hc had none. Holloway insisted that he had a book, and it he did not deliver it, he would knock him down. I he deceased again replied that he had no bank, and Holloway knocked him down. 1 then laid hold of his le* s. Holloway stood at his head, and swore if lie cried out he would knock out his brains. The deceased again said, he hoped we would not ill- use him. Haggerty proceeded to search him, when the deceased made some resistance, ftnd struggled so much that he got across the road. He cried out severely, and, as a carriage was coining up, Hol- loway said, " lake care, 1 will silence the b— r, and immediately struck him several violent blows on the head and body. The deceased heaved a heavy groan, and stretched himself out lifeless. I felt alarmed, and said, " John, you have killed the man:" Holloway replied, that it was a lie, for hc was only stunned. I said 1 would stay no longer, and immediately sat off towards London, leaving Holloway \ ind Haggerty with the body. I came to Hounslow, and stopped at the end ot the town for near an hour. . The prisoners then caine up, and said, they had done the trick, and, as a token, put the deceased's hat into my hand. The hat Holloway went down in was like" a soldier's hat. I told Holloway it was a cruel piece of business, and that I was sorry I hud any hand in it. We all turned down a lane, and returned to London. As we came along, I asked Holloway if hc had got the pocket- book. He replied it was no matter, for as I had refused to share the danger, I' should not share the booty, li t' came lo the Mack- Hone in Dyot- street, liud half a pint of gin, and parted. Ilaggerty went down in shoes, but I don't know if he camc back in them. The next day- I observed Holloway had a hat " upon his head which was too small for him. I asked him if it was the same he got the preceding night. He said it was. We met again on the Monday, when I told Holloway that he acted imprudently in wearing the liar, as it might lead to a discovery. He put'the hat into my hand, and I observed the name of Steel in it. I repeated my fears, fate that awaited them. They were both ill- looking men, particularly Holloway, whose appearance was the most brutal and ferocious that can be imagined. On Saturday, W. Freeman and W. Eisher, were found guilty* of forgery. James Mackay, the pickpocket, was likewise found guilty, but not capitally. EXECCTIOM of the MURIMRERS— md a DRJADJUL CATASTROPHE. The crowd which assembled on Monday morning to witness the execution of Holloway and Haggerty, for the murder of Mr. Steel, and of Elizabeth Godfrey, for the murder of Richard Prince, was unparalleled. The fatal catastrophe which hap- pened in consequence, will cause the day long to be remembered. By ei^ hl o'clock not an inch of ground was unoccupied in view of the platform. The pressure of the crowd was such, that before the malefactors appeared, numbers of persons were crying out in vaiH to escape from it: the attempt only tedded trf increase the confusion. Several females of low stature, who had been so imprudent as to venture amongst the mob, were in a dismal situation. Some who could be no longer supported by the men, were suffered to fall, and were trampled to death. This was also the case with several men and bovs. A few minutes before eight o'elock, Holloway and Haggerty were led into the Press- yard, where they had their arms pinioned in the usual way with cords. Several noblemen and persons of distinc- tion, the Lord- Mayor and some of the Aldermen, were present. As soon as the executioner had pinioned Ilolloway, he fell upon his knees, and protested his innocence in the most solemn manner, and prayed to God that he might be dealt with hereafter according to his innocence or guilt; then rising, he concluded by an oath that his companion and he were both innocent of the crime imputed to them. Haggerty has also on all occasions invariably declared he was not guilty of the murder of Mr. fata! place u man of the name of Ethrington was thrown down, who had in his hand his youngest sow, a fine boy about 12 years of age. The youth was soon trahipled to death; the father recovered, i though much bruised, and is amongst the wounded j in Bartholomew's Hospital. A woman, who was so 1 imprudent as to bring with her a child at the breast, was one of the number killed: whilst in the act of falling, she forced the child into the arms of a man nearest to her, requesting him for God's sake to save its life; the man finding it required all his exertion so preserve himself, threw the infant from him, but it was fortunately caught at a distance by another man, who finding it difficult to ensure its safety or his own, got rid of it in a similar- way. The child. was again caught by a person who con- trived to struggle with it to a cart, under which he deposited it until the danger was over, and the mob had dispersed. In other parts the pressure was so great that a horrible scene of confusion ensued, and seven persons lost their lives by suffocation alone. As fast as the mob cleared away after the execution, nnd those on the ground could be picked up, they were conveyed in carts ijnd on boards to Bartholomew's . Hospital, where every atteution was shewn and every assistance afforded, to those who exhibited signs of life. Thirty persons, con- sisting of men, women, ami boys, ,; ere dreadfully mangled by being trampled upon, and were already dead; of these 27 were taken to Bartholomew's Hospital, two to St. Sepulchre's church, and one to the Swan public- house, to he owned. Fifteen men and two women were conveyed tu the Hospital severely bruised, the greater part of whom are in a fair way of recovery. As soon as the bodies of the deceased were washed, and in a tit state to be exposed, they were laid out in the Elizabeth Ward, in order to be claimed by their friends. No language can describe the anguish of the scene when the people first recognized these mutilated remains: some found a brother, Some a son, and others a father.. It was truly affecting to see the persons who had missed their relatives so strongly agitated between hope and fear, as they entered the room to view the dead. Some had not resolution enough to convince themselves of that they wished to kn » w. As fast as the bodies were owned, they were put into shells with the name of the parties upon them. At the conclusion of the day, 20, out of 27, had been owned, but they were not suffered to be taken away until a Coroner's inquest had sat upon them. Report from St. Bartholomew's Hespital. The Great Restorative tu Health is MANN's APPROVED MEDICINE, RECOMMENDED BY TH* FACULTY, And patronized by Ladies and Gentlemen vj the first Distinction. ] VJ O Medicine, in so short a Time, has been so A.^ l singularly blessed in restoring such Multitudes, when all Hopes of Recovery had been given over, in violent Coughs, Colds, Convulsion Fits, Hooping- Cough, Consumptions, Influenza, long - standing Asthmas, Relaxed Habits, and Debilitated Consti- tutions. Ladies, in a pregnant State, afflicted with Coughs, & c. may take Doses of 15 Drops with the greatest Advantage ; and from the Infant in the first Week, to the Aged in any State. The few remarkable Cases, wrapped round each Bottle thereof, present not the hundredth Part ot the Cures performed by this very superior and established Remedy, it is hoped will be sufficient for the Afflicted to give it a Trial, and especially so where tile Faculty and other Means have not succeeded. Facts are Facts, on such alone Mr. Mann relies ; and feeling that his Discovery is entitled to public Confidence, so he boldly and candidly asks it. He cannot give Length of Days where " Days are num- bered," nor does he profess Infallibility; but ample Experience has taught, and constantly teaches him, that this great Medicine will reach and remove deep- seated Maladies, where the healing Art in general has not only failed, but also consigned the decaying Suf- ferer to an untimely Grave. As the Character of this Remedy lias given Rise to many Counterfeits, so Persons should be very cautious of whom and where they purchase, and observe, that ** Thomas Mann, Horsham, Sussex," is engraved on the Stamp ; ; dl others are Counterfeits.
