On Sunday tire following Bulletin was ex- hibited at St. James's Palace, . of the state of the King's health :— Windsor Castle, Sept. 5,1818. " His Majesty has been exceedingly quiet and comfortable through the last month, but without any alteration iu the state of his Majes- ty's health. A Mail from Flanders has arrived. Hu- mours of the death of the illustrious Prince Iiiucher at Carlsbad, are given on the autho- rity of a letter from Aix-! a- CUapelie ot tlic 2Bth ; but as letters from tlu't city of a date two days later make no mention of the re- portedmelancholy event, we are led to hope that this great and '' lotions man has not yet closed his earthly career, lilt that to invalu- able a character wi'l for many years longer he spared to admiring Europe. More American Papers have been receiv- ed.— The Charlestoivn Papers say, that let- ters from Jamaica by the schooner ~ Friend- ship, state, that t'. e Admiralty 1 a, 1 directed that no British ships of war should in future be allowed to touch at American potts w ith specie. It is confirmed by the last advices from St. I ominyo, that Ciiristophe- was left in full march against Port- au- Pl ince. The Revenue.— We are rejoiced to And, that such is the progressive improvement in the state of our Ivevriiue, that the excess in the present Quarter, bey ond that iu the cor- responding Quarter of last year, w ill be near one million aud a half.— Upon this most cheering fact we cordially congratulate the .

Her Majesty, whose maiden name is Sophia Charlotte or Caroline of Meeklenburgh Strelitz, was bora May 16, 1744. She was the youngest daughter'^ Charles Lewis, brother to Freder- ick, the third Duke of Mecklenburgb. Her fa- Cier hiiwever, though in the immediate lire of inheritance, as bis brother the reigning Duke had no issue, nnd was unmarried, did not suc- ceed ta the principality: ln: died before his bro- ther, and thus, upon the death Q. f Frederick, the succession devolved upoh bis nephew, Adolphris Frederick the Fimrth, brother to her pre. en! Majesty. In respect to her Majesty's Union with our beloved and afilictecl Sovereign, itseems ne- cessary to observe, that this event was, not a matter of mere state policy , but of preference aud election. His Majesty had not long filled the throne before be acquainted his Coun- cil, in a meeting convened for the express purpose, " that having nothing so much at heart astlie w elfare and happiness of his people, and tiiat to render the same stable and permanent to posterity being the lirst object of his reign, ho had, ever since his accession to the throne, turn- ed his thoughts to tbe choice of a Princess, with whom he might find the solace of matrimony, and the comforts of domestic lile: He; had to an- nounce to them, therefore, with great satisfac- tion, that. after the most mature reflection and fullest information, he had come to a resolution to demand in marriage the Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburgh Strelit;, a Princess distinguish- ed by every amiable virtue and elegant endow- ment, whose' illustrious line had constantly shewn tiie firmest zeal in the Protestant religion, and a particular attachment to his Majesty's family." tsuch were the terms in which his Majesty an- nounced his Royal intention to his Council on the 8th July, l? 01. Titjiaegoeinlion commenced at Strelitz, and the Earl of llafcourt, his Ma- jesty's Ambassador Extraordinary and Pleni- potentiary, concluded the treaty of marriage on the 15th of August following. Preparations were immediately made for the recepti m of the Royal Bride in England. She left Meck- leuburghon the 22d of Uigust, and arrived af- ter a tedious voyage of ten days, at Harwich, on the 6i. ii of the follow iug month, lief Majes- ty rested one night, that of her arrival; upon her journey at tbe bouse of the Ear! of Abercorn. at Witham, in Essex, from whence she set out j early the next morning, aid arrived at ihe Pa- j lace of St. James's, where she was received by his Majesty aud the rest of the Royai Family. At nine upon the saute evening the marriage Ceremony was solemnized by the Arehbishopof Canterbury, in the RoyalChopel, under circum- stances of appropriate splendor and respect.— The usual congratulatory addresses w ere pre- sented to their Majesties from botii Houses of Parliament, the two Universities, and- all coun- ties, cities, am! corporations in. the kingdom.— The grand assembly of Ihe nation prepared like- wise a. testimony of their duty and muuilioeuee On being form of the King her Majesty . agreeub! a jointure of £ 100, Out) per annum, which was settled upon her by an Act of the Legislature, together with the Palace of Richmond uud So- merset House In t he following year the joy of the nation was increased by tbe birth of an heir to llie throne. The hope of continuing the Protestant succes- sion in his Majesty's family was now change-.! to a kind of certainty, and the bwth of an heir was of itself sufficient to have established the popularity of a Queen of England, even had she wanted those many virtues which her Majesty is so well kuow'n to possess. The following are the issue ofthe Royal Pair: 1. George Prince of Wales, bom August 12, 1762, K. G.; appointed Regent Feb. 6, 1814; married April H, 1735, to the Princess Caroline of Brunswick, born May 17, 1768, by whom he had isstji*. Charlotte Augusta, born Jan. 7,1796; m, UTTF<} itay 2, lb Hi, to Prince Leopold of Saxe linortv or men ouiy iiiumth ru^. ormally acquainted with the marriage ig, they provided for the support of v Agreeably to the Sovereign's wishes The Archbishops, at the earnest desire of the Commissioners appointed for carrying into exe- cution an Act " for building, and promotingthe building, of additional churches and chapels in populous parishes," have addressed'a circular letter to the Bishops in their respective provinces, for tbe purpose of requesting, through them, the Incumbents of each diocese to furnish the said Commissioners with the fullest information upon tire four following points, namely: A correct account of the population of the parish, aud of any adjoining extra. parochial place : the num- ber of persons which the parochial church is, on admeasurement, found capable of accommoda- ting : the distance from the parish church at which any considerable part ofthe parishioners reside: and, in case of its being deemed expe- dient to remove all or any of these impediments to the people's attendance on Divine worship, what sum or sums tbe inhabitants ol'such parish or extra- parochial place are able and willing to contribute towards erecting an additional church or chapel. Mr. Incledon is arrived in Liverpool from America. He has realized, it is said, by his trans- Atlantic expedition upwards of Jive thou- sand pounds. Miiacvluus Escape.—- A few nights since, a man win) was sleeping in a garret at the Wool- packs. in Trow bridge, dreamt that he w as about to be seized by the Devil, when, getting out of bed, he climbed to a high window, at which lie got out, and was immediately precipitated upon the pavement ill the street, and, wonderful de- liv erance for hint, escaped with only a few slight bruises.— Hath Herald. On Friday last, the cottage ofa labourer, in the parish of Writtle, was broken- open in the daytime, ond a sum of money, amounting to upwards of fifty guineas in gold, taken from it. We are happy to learn, that a man has been ap- prehended under strong suspicion of beiugguil- ty of tho burglary, and committed for further examination; but jt excites ct. ually our sur- prise and regret to find, that so many persons in the lower stations of life still persevere in keeping large suras of money in their cottages, in this unsafe ami unproductive state. If ibis money had been invested iu the Savings Bank, the owner would have been probably, for some time in the receipt ofa regular interest arising from it, the capital would have been as safe as the Government of the. country can make it, and a fellow Christian would not have been tempted to commit this atrcreious crime. It has always stiu- k ng as'o ieof the principal advantages which distinguish these excellent institutions, that in proportion to their success, they will diminish ihe temptation to the crime v, hieh has become so frequent, of breaking i to the cot- tages ofthe poor; a. id we siiil hope to see the time when every man, whose industry and in- dependent spirit prompt him to lay by a part of liia holiest earnings, will have the wisdom to carry it regularly, as it accrues, to thfe Sayings Bank nearest to him.— Chelmsford Chronicle. Duel Extraordinary.— On Friday last a dis- pute respecting n lady'slove took place between two gentlemen who occupied apartments in the same bouse, in Lambeth road. One of them was a son of. Vulcan, the other a descendant of the renowned Saint Crispin, The dispute ran high, and it was determined to settle it instant- ly in an honorable way. Accorditigl. il, attended by two frietiils, they repaired to a field in the neighbourhood of Vau. thali, Crispin tcaawghot in proportion as he, drew near Ihe lata! ct. and dec- larin ; lie w - mid lose Jr..- r:::/ rather t!: t t not end bis adversary. When arrived at tha place of combat, ho .- ever, the. son of Fa/ ran, appeared better prepared to stand fire than his adversa- ry, for fiie po. tr c.. bier no sooner saw tin pis- tids loaded than his heart began to beat like a htmmer. r. n- 1-. cve'ry m >: > ent proved that he was not prepared to risk his * ou- f « r bis Jove. Be- fore the seconds had time to measure the ground Crispin discharged it> s pistol at his adversary, n<: d then retreated behind a wall for safety, and was witli diliieulty brought back to the ground again. On die second lire be took to his heels in good earnest, leaving the man of metal in possession ofthe field and the lady, declaring be bud no w ish at present to have his career closed by a leaden pill.— Sunday paper. An Incorrigible Rogue.— A noted thief, named Jones, was charged with robbing a gentleman of his pocket- book, in the neighbourhood of St. Paul's, a tew days since. ' I he prisoner, it tinned out, was one of a party charged with felony, who effected an escape about two years ago. On Unit occasion, he no sooner h id freed himself from his irons, than he forwarded them back to the keeper; aud, in a polite note, assur- ed him that lie had no desire whatever again to wear" the galling chain!" He is however, once move imprisoned. Illegal fishing, for the furtherance ofa curi- ous purpose, litis lately been disovered on the Thames. Regutar fishermen, ant! large bodies of poachers, sweep the Thames, nig lit nnd day, of all tbe white frsh, for the sake of their scales merely : these are sold to Jews, for manufactur- ing beads in, imitation of pearls ; . oach scales are sold at 21s. per quart, dace 258; whilst for bleak four guineas a quart is the present market price in Duke's- place ! The scales are torn off them as fast as they ar^ caught, aud thus, often dreadfully mangled, they are tossed back into the water to linger arid die in torture. Inquest.— An Inquest was taken on Saturday night in Newgate, on the body of VV. Day, alias Oliver, who put an end to his existancc on Sa- turday morning, by catting his throat with a ra- zor. W. Harvey, a prisoner confined in New- gate for trial, said. tlie deceased seemed very- low in spirits. lie furjl been committed on a charge of forgery on Tuesday. They fried to raise his spirits, but he complained of his Soli- citor not attending bim'as be onglit. Witness succeeded in raising'bis spirits alittl- e, by telling him he was in a similar situation," and with him to liopy." At night it was proposed to watch him, as from his saying, '*' f will not he long in this world,'' they feared he meant something not right. Witness went to bed at half- past ten, and got up at two to relieve theothers. About half- past three, witness heard a. noise, as if the de- ceased was struggling in his bed, but upon go- ing up and feeling, all appeared quiet. In a few moments after the noise was repeated as though itdrooeeded from the throat. Witness totxk his candle to examine, ami perceived the blood upon the wa'I lie roused his companion, and on their turning tbe body, they found his throat cur. He was not quite dead, but he be- came soon after completely extinct. A razor was picked up in the bed close to the body. From the time of his commitment, the deceased had been much depressed ; he u'ept continually, and seldom cat or drank. This evidence was cor- roborated, and proof given as to the apparent alienation of mind, under which the deceased was supposed to labour.— Verdict— Insanity. . WARWICK RACES, Wednesday, Sept. 1.

We allude to his public character; • of his private lite we know nothing ; and, wh never it may be, its intuits cannot redeem, nor its faults deteriorate-, bis cause;.. that, cause has perished, and perished for ever; he destroyed if himself, des- perately, deliberately destroyed it, day after day, < HI the hustings ; and nothing is so remarkable, as ' that it took so much time and labour to ruin it.— Twenty years ago, or more, BIr. Burke calculated that there were ' eighty thousand incorrigible jaco, bins in the country,' The breed must have been exceedingly diminished, if, in the City of Westmin- ster, tire cradle, school, and theatre of democracy, Hilly 81 votes could'heobtained for Mr. Hunt!— He, too", has been cheating aod^ heatcd; but lie is at length so well known,( tharfUs to his own'ingenuous effrontery,) to every body except himself, that he. re- afiei- he must lie imnteiit- to be his owu dupe.

It. is fok- en'tiom the Author's daily notes, and gives it description of the face " of . the country, the cli- mate, the season, aud the soil. Speaking of Philadelphia, Mr, . Cdbbett Jakes occasion to praise the cleanliness of the inhabitants of his native country, in particular those of Surrey and Hampshire ; but more especially ofthe town of Guihiford: The Philadelphia^ are cleanly, a . quality which they owe chiefly to the quukeis. Hub, after being long and recently familiar with the towns in Surrey aud Hampshire, aud especially with Guildford, Alton, and Southampton, no i. tiier towns appear " clean and neat, not even Bath or Salisbury, which. 1 ast is much about on a j> ar. in point of cleanliness, with Philadelphia; and Salisbury is deemed a very cleanly place. — Bland lord and Dorchester are clean; but, I have never yet seen any thing like the towns in Surrey and Hampsltiie. If a Frenchman, burn " and Bred," ' could be takehup and carried blind- fold to Guildford, I wonder what his sensations - would be, when lie came to have the use of his sight 1— Every thing near Guildford seems to • have received an iiiHuetide from tire town.— Hedge*, gates, sliles, gardens, houses inside and out, and the dresses of the people. Tiie market day at Guildfcird is ai perfect shew of cleanliness : not even a carter w ithout a clean s-. ntick- frock, and closely shaven and eleati- waslied l& ee, Well may Mr. Birk beck, w ho came from this very spot, think the people dirty i. i the,. western county! I'll engage he finds mare dirt upon the. necks and faces ofone fami- ly of his present neighbours, than he left behind ltim upon the skins of ail tiie people in the three parishes of Guildford. However, lie would not have found this to be the case in Pennsylvania, and especially in those parts where the Quakers abound ; and. I am told, that- Jo the New Eng- latirl states, the people are as cleanly and as neat as they „ are in Eugiaild.

The animal was growing more & more averse ot the controul of the keeper, held hispawsout to the sailor, « c moaned pi- teo- us- ly. The Lord Mayor said, the only vvay lor him to decide upon a Case in w hich there was posi- tive Assertions on. both sides, was to leave the matter to the monkey himself. His Lordship then directed that the monkey should be placed upon the table, and Unit each. party cluiming hiiu should use his powers of fascination-, in or- der to ascertain to whom the monkey ivas most attacMhi. The monkey was put upon the table; but narrowly escaped death from an attack made upon him by a dog, who It * icon a. constant visitor tit the Ma- nsioiishouse. The Lord Mayor marked the effect of this vei'y important adven- ture upon, the plaintiff and defendant, and was of opinion, tjiat as the greater concern was ma- nifested upon the part of the sailor, he was the tight owner. The desired experiment was now made: the showman put a pte- ee of stick into the monkey's paw, ' and ordered him to slu « ilder . arms. Instead of obeying this order, tiie mon- key struck the keeper ou The hesiit. ' atlil then threw it in his fuue. The sailor then called to him, " Jack, . make' 4 sahnnh lo Kis- Lordship."— flic monkey instantly stood erect on his hind legs, raised his paws to the top of his head, and made a low bow to the Lord Mayor in the Turk- ish style.; he then hugged the sailor has before. " If any thing else is necessary ( said the sailor,) there is a hole inane of his ears, which 1 bored in St. Kilts, for it is fashionable for the bucks to wear an ear- ring there; his left paw is marked by a lishing hook, and part of his tail is bitten by a parrot that Used lo quarrel with him." These marks were observed. The Lord Mayor advised the show man to give tip ull elaimto the monkey. The showman refused; the sailor refused to part with the monkey, a'nd the monkey refused to part with IIKU. The two disputants then left tho office, the monkey hanging about the rufSk ofthe sailor iathe most affectionate manner.

The Monkey Was making a hideous noise, and the Sailor and Sliowniiiii, who had been arguing on their way to tho Mansion- house, were so w holly absorbed in the subject, of the dispute, as not to take notice foi some time of the authority presiding. The Monkey, however, was more respectful in bis manners, and seemed to have a due impression of the dignity of the Magistrate before whom he was . brought. His Lordship haying noticed the respectful demeanor of, the Monkey, called upon the Sailor and Showman to ftrHrrn' the example uf the animal, who at that moment began to ex- hibit some of his must amusing trif-. ks ; such as pulling tin: Showman's nose, untying his ctavat. dragging opeti his waiscoat. and iu fast proceed- ing to ttie bu. siill'ss of stripping him. The Lord Mayor having de.- ured that the complaint, if there was any, should be stated, the Sailor said, Ire and the Monkey were the injured parties, and the Showman the aggressor." llis Lordship seemed to think, that the Monkey would be as wrflable to explain the mutter as either of his companions -„ and this conclusion seemed to be jast, for while the feutuws ofthe met), were ( agi- tated by passion, the Monkey's were as grave as a Philosopher, though lie now and then bldw Ids' nose in iiis jiaw , aad wiped it. on the Show- man's wiskers. The Monkey kept his sye fixed upSii the Lord Mayor, while his Lordship was speakiug, and at the conclusion of. every sen- tence uttered a piercing cry. The Sailor then jsaid, that he went into Oilman's and Atkins's Exhibition of Wild' Beatfts, iti Bartholomew Fair, and while he was looking at the curiosi- ties, he rocognised the Monkey to be his proper- ty. He had purchased him at St. kitt's- for four dollars, and lost him at Portsmouth some time ago. He immediately told the Keeper that lie was d—— d if that w as not his Monkey, . and have it he would.

[ Extract from tlie TIMES.] The case of West, who- suffered at Horsemon- ger lane, has excited" considerable interest; and hopes were at one time entertained that liis lile wouid hive been spared. This unfortunate per- son Was tlird at the last Assizes at Guildford, for having utteicd four £ I Bank Of England notes, knowing tbcm, to bcTorgcd. It. is custom- ary for the Bank to sclect from their prisoners ehses fur capital indictnient. aud to. allow others ta plead guilty to the' mtnor eburge, ' ' 1 hich is th^ tof lia " iiig in their possession forged notes. The punishment for the lesser offence is tvans- 1 - Tl.:„ l.„.,„ lil urns hOW" [• his real name ami actual iiuui^ i'e- 1 was some years since in the service ot a icctable maltster at l> eplfoid, who hps given porta won for 14 years. This benefit was, ever, denied to Wcsl. nlihough there was reason to believe, that the peculiar circumstances nfhis case would have entitled him to the indulgence. He was but in his 21th year; his character, which jvas irreproachable, has been attested by several persmis of respectability. Even admitt- ing that he knew of the notes being forged, it . a:< evident that he wus unpractised: in this fa tal traffic ; and be parted with tlienl in liis own neighbourhood, and to those who could at any time have apprehended him. On passing them, lie attempted no concealment or deception; he gave and address,- W respect...,.., .... lii 111 an excellent character. It, wan at ibis period that he coutraeted an intimacy with a fellow-' workman named Lausdown. w lmyfuitted his em- ployment, and went to sea. This person short- ly returned; and. being in djiitipss, applied to West, who. generously relieved him. Uiouttwo. years ago, West left Deptford, and entered into the employment of Mr. Barker, a utalstec. re- siding at Brentford, with whom lie tontinncd tsntil May last, w hen the malting season being over; he v.- as discharged. Mr. barker fullv in- fended lo employ him again. IlCsays that West always proved himself a steady and trustworthy servant; and thai ho is certain, Ihat the man was quite innocent of any tiansactions relative lo foijgbd notes, w hile engaged in, and on quit- ting, his service. Mr. lSarker has also Stated, that West vv. as a young man of a very weak mind, and ol a disposition liable to. be. leo astray ; and he has expressed his full conviction; that tins unfortunate individual has been Ihe instrument of designing villainy, and that (. if guilty) the present was his lirst oflenee. It also appears, tlist ( lie poor fellow had buoy- ed himself up. under the apprehension that !; e should have been allowed to p'odri guilly to the minor offence; 011. which account, he w as not prepared upon his trial to bung forward wit- nesses in his favor, who otherwise vvouhl liuve boen called. The reader is requested to recollect, that it was i: i the month of May last that West quitted Mr. Barker's service. I11 June, he accidentally met Lansdown at Barnes. Lansdown appeared to have several Bank notes in his possession.— He requested West to procure him some silver, as he was going to Ireland, and delivered two notes for Ibis purpose. West obtained the change, after which he went to the Couch and Horses public- house, at Bai ues,- and- speiil tome time there w ith several of his fellow workmen. At this time a woman, whom West had seen in the company of Lansdow n, entered llie publir- liotisc, and iiittmatlog to West fife danger of his situation, advised him to quit ihe place instant- ly; he did so, but had scarcely left it. When a constable followed and apprehended him. On his examination before tlie Magistrate, West admitted that be had passed the notes in ques- tion, but denied, any knowledge of theie being forged , they were, in fact, the notes which he had received from Lansdowa. During his ex- amination a pel- son belonging to the neighbour- hood produced a packet of o her forged notes, which he stated to have found under ( he gate-, way df the public- liouse where West had been apprehended. West declared that he knew no- thing whatever of the notes. It is supposed that they had been dropped by the woiilan, who was evidently the colleague of Lansdown This cir- cumstance powerfully operated against West, rmd was probably the reason of his not being allowed to plead, guilty to the minor count. Ih reviewing the circumstances which have led to the conviction of W- eSt, it is far from being our wish to reflect on the Jury who tried him, or on tbe Judge who proiiouiiccd the aw ful sentence of the law. It is a fact beyond all doubt, ihat West did pass the notes in question: but it is clear ( o those who have investigated the case, that he was the dupe of others who were exten sively engaged in this practice, and who have 011 this occasion eluded justice. , Ai to the guilt or innocence of this young man.' fittle need now be said. Iiis fate is decided ; he is sent to tlie tribunal of his Maker; and we trust lie has found the judgment scat of the Most High co- vered with mercy. We are not aw arc of the rule which regulates the Bauk in selecting cases for capital indict- ment ; and We confess that we have yet to leaijn upon what principle- of tbe B- itish constitution the Bank of England assumes, at its discretion the power of dispensing mercy. Any selection thus made cannot fail to inspire offenders at large with the hope of impunity, and to excile among the sufferers strong feelings of anxiety aud indignation. I11 the evidence contained in the Police Report, recently published, the Kev. Mr. Cotton, the ordinary of Newgate observes —>' In cases of forgery I find a good deal of anger in tbe people against the punishment which is annexed In law ; and iu cases offorg- edBank notes they are always discontented with the selection which they conceive the Bank'has made of them as individuals. The m. 111 now about to be executed, told me Ibat it was com plete murder! and when I reasoned with him, saying that others had suffered for it, and in a late instance, mentioning the case of VVaid, for whom so much intercession was made, he said, that was murder also." Mr. Baker, a gentle man who, from motives ofbenevolence* has, dur ing the last three years, visited tbe condemned convicts iu Newgate, says, in his examination before the same committee,—" There is a ma- terial difference of feeling existing among ( he piisoneis with regard to forging Bank notes'; and uttering them. Those who utter forged notes think themselves offendeis iu a lesser de- gree, and in general, ! lind that they have been characters who have been drawn into the com- mission of crime by the. craft and suhtilty of others, principally youth." He adds, " One of the young men under orders for execution told lire, that the person who seduced him was in the habit of passing at least - 100 notes in a week and that of his certain knowledge ; and that he was the person who supplied Finney,. Spicer, and Kelly, with notes to a considerable ii mount, ' and that Ibis was known to Mr. Westwood, the - Lank' Solirifir-!, and,' notwithstanding Ihat, lie iv as suffered l- i plead'to the minor charge." It is worthy of remark, that a considerable number ot those selected as objects of vengeance, ap pear to h » v « - been youngpersons, while the in- stam ps are comparatively rare in which priiicr- t als have suffered. The nutnberof prosecutions at the lateAssTzes throughout the country foruttering forged Bank of England notes Iras been very striking, and exceeds, vve believe, all precedent. The facili- ties with which this offence may be committed, and the temptations which it offfets. paiticular- ly to the young and " unwary,- are too obvious to require comment. The public may judge ofthe extent of tile evil in the metropolis alone, when it is known Ihat there are iu Newgate only", nearly forty persohi ton charges of tbir. nature, awaiting their trials at the approaching Ses- sions. Is'there a reflecting mind that can con- template tbe present condition;- and possible fate, of these unhappy persons, sVithoUl feelings of painful solicitude; without fearfully antici- pating tlieiecurrence of those scene* hen fresh victims shall be sneriliced to the mistaken poli- cy of man; and without astonishment that, in a christian country, human life should be esti- mated so cheaply, and its destruction regarded with sutTi disgraceful insensibility ?* That the pu.' ijshr. ent of death lia- s completely failed in restraining ihe crime of fbrgerv was re- • • • '---'• " u-— The the bar. He is a fine atl-. lctic man, extremely well dressed and powdered. He. was placed at tho bar, and upou seeing Mr. Elvves, appear- ed rather affected by liis presence; lie immedi- ately leaned his bead upon his hand, and con- linued in that posture during the greater part ofthe examination. He answered to tbe name of " Mr. Adams ;" and it appears '. hat his name is Balthazar Adams, lesidingat Btauleti. near . Southampton: he. has been an eminent ship- f builder, " ami is stated to have built — tin ships 1 1 —"•> 1,1 ^ and has, jt would seem. several 7- 4 heretofore ecntly admitted even from tbe Bench, learned Judge who lately presided on the crown side at the Assizes at Lancaster, in addressing seven prisoners who had been guilly of this crime, after stating- Ihat, on a former occasion, he had the same painful duty loperl'ornt on other prisoners convicted of the same offence, and who bad since atoned with their blood, for the injury which they hud done 10 society, added, " but 1 do not perceive that this example has been attended with any advantage. Or that it has pro- duced any diminution in the number of offenders of this description, the offences committed by the piesent prisoners being all subsequent lo the last assize." A strong and decided febllng is now rapidly advancing throughout the kingdom, on tbe injus- tice, cruelly, aud^ infelliciency of continuing to visit the ciime. of foi gery with the punishment of death. Of many ofthe evils which affect society the remedies ate uncertain, partial, und distaht. Happily, this is not Ike case with the subject to which our attention is now directed;. Remedial measures are within our- reach, and itw ful w ill be the responsibility of tbe Legislature if those measures are neglected; Ex|>£ riehCe has clearly demonstrated in other cou 11 trifcs tlie beneficial effect of substituting a salutary systchi of prison discipline for the deprivation of human life. The criminal may be altogether secluded from society, if his crimes requires it, and his life yet be spared ; and the testimony of those w ho ai e most competent to judge iipon tbe subject ihcon- testibly proves, that imprisonment for a length- ened term of years, conibinedwith habitual hard labour, is dreaded infinitely mors by every de- scription of olieiidcis, than either transportation or the punishment of death " A ch:- iige has, iu fact, become absolutely nect ssary, and mnst soon take place. The public voice earnestly demands it. - It is impossible to reconcile our feelings to Javvs which inflict with indiscriminate vengeance the same penalties on critnes w idcly differing in magnitude. The unfor- tunate individual V\ est.' whose character until the present occasion stood unimpeacbed, shares the same punishment w ith" the murderer 11MS- sey' In noother country ih Europe, we believe, do such incongruous enactments exist; and iiis a seve- c reflection on her national . superiority • that England should hesitate to. follow the ex ample, of those sh> tes that have preceded her in the improvement of criminal jurisprudence. A revival of the penal . code would be as beneficial to iler interests as it- would contribute to her . ami. The laws would no longer be at variance w ith the kind feelings of those who seek, and of : bose who administer justice; but mitigated by he and tern pereu by Christina princi- ples, they would be cherished by every i liowwi'il character- and means, which have en- titled him to the best, consideration of soilie of the t- ist people iu ihe metropolis. Indeed Mr. Snow, of the banking house of- Snovv and Paul, upon whom he is supposed to have forged to the amount of i'lilGtb slated that lie had been upon intimate terms with them for these last twenty years. . . . Mr. George Johnson, of the fun) of Hurd and Johnson, solicitors, of the Inner Temple, stated, thai he knew the prisoner. Oti Friday he came to w itness and asked him to discount the bill produced for - f' 200. Witness accordingly gave iiim a chcqne for £ 197 10s. upon the banking- house of Messrs.

The colliers employed in numerous mines in this immediate neighbourhood have also refused to continue their services without an augmenta- tion of salary. Processions with them have like- wise been much the order oftlie day. We are happy, in closing this statement, to announce, that on Saturday the hands v> f Mr. David Holf, of Ghorlton New Mills, tendered a resumption of their services to him, and were yesterday received into full employ. A great many other spinners yesterday also returned to their woik, and tin" disposition to go on is gene- rally manifested. Troops are stationed in tempo- rary barracks, in such Situations as to afford prompt and efficient protection lo ( lie people, and to give them confidence in going to raid coming from the factories. Extra watchmen are also appointed, forthe districts in which the spinners live, to prevent llieir being molested in the night. MARKET HERALD.

MOST EXTENSIVE FORGERIES. On Saturday afternoon,- amost important in vestigation took place before Richard Biinic Esq at Bow street, respecting forgeries to an enoijnous aty. uui, supposed to IK* committed by a gent'entan of fcisl » consideration in tiie trading and mercantile- World. On Friday in- formation vv- ts roeeiv ed by the worthy magistrate above mentioned, of sovernl forgeries, but of one definitively, and he accordingly directed W. Bond to go ( armed with proper authority) in pursuit ofthe gentleman who was suspected to have committed the offe-"" T,"' « nv » „ Y!„„ ii!, i ( for w e iin lerstand his for suits entitle him to that appellation) was found by Bond seated in n Kentish Town stage, near Staples Inn, he having made an appointment to dine with a friend at Kentish Town. The officer, wilh^ evciy feeling of kindness towards the unfortunate gentleman, communicated his errand with all possible delicacy to him, and conveyed hiin to the office, wheie he underwent a cursory examination- before Mr. Biruio, dur- ing which time be kept one of his bands in his coat near his breast, and the worlhy magistrate conceiving that he eilher was meditating self- destructiyn, or was. anxious to destroy instru- ments which he knew would appear in a crimi- nal shape against hini, orderei( the officer to take him out and search his person diligently ; this was done, and in one of bis pockels was found a khil'e fully calculated to effect that which Mr. Birnie bad contemplated. Uponthis occasion tiie charges against the prisoner were only of a suspicions nature; there being no po- sitive or tangible proof against him; he was accoii'ingly remanded for- examination on Sat- urday. 1 Mr. Birnie, however, with that precau- tion v, hioh always guides him, made it impera- tive upon the ofliccr ( o cause the prisoner to he watched most narrowly during the whole ofthe night; this order was strictly complied with by Bond, who stated that his captive had experi- enced a most restless night, and '.. e had felt it his duty to take from him, his neckerchiefs, and every garment likely to assist him in the horrid act of suicide. Tliedocuments found uponhim had, in the interim, undergone an investigation and the result was, that long before the prison er's examination, John Elwes, Esq. son of the late eccentric and paisimonious gentleman of "• thatname, appeared, and • being a> kedfty; Mr'. Biinie if he had been in the habit of'acceptin. hills for laige amounts, said, to the beet cf his recollection he had not, in the whole course of his life, accepted more than two. Shortly after three o'clock the acSusing parties bad arrived, auJ the prifionei was brought in and placed at [ Extract from the Manchester Mercury of Tuesday, September 8.] The conduct of the work- people in this dis- trict., who have forsaken their employment for increase cf wages, has assumed an attitude fraught with ihe uiosj serious consequences :— the spinners in particular, htive now called forth the anxious at. il . unit 111 " tting vigilance of the magistracy and the other, constituted authori- ties. II appears that the great bulk of these in- dividuals, who have fumed themselves inloone established system o# confederacy against their masters, not coiiienf Willi the resistance, they furnish in their own persons; have resolved, by the fyrde, of instill And intimidation, to prevent those w eM disposed persons who arc w eary of indolence, from earning a comfortable and li- beral maintenance, J> y ' their own application and industry; and we regret to add, that this despotic principle has at length led to a fatal result. • One favorite course of proceeding, and cer- tainly novel feature in these transactions, has been to- parade the Streets in marching- order, two, three, and four abreast; and this has been tbe frequent practice'diiring what we will de- signate their vacation. O11 Wednesday, between eleven and . twelve in , tlie forenoon, a party, amounting to about a thousand men, w< men, and children, walked in procession to. Messis. B.

He was com eyed almost immediately to the ' Infirmary where, after Ihe most assiduous at- tention from the faculty of that establishment his unhappy case w ouldadmit of, be expited at six o'clock 011 Thursday morning.— This melan- choly example did not. deter these rash people from assembling the same evening, and attack- ing the premir. es again with stones; they could not be induced to desist until the military, vt hkh consisted of a Serjeant's guard, stationed there for the protection of the property, were obliged to fire. and. another young man was. so s ever^ y ounded that serious apprehensions - we're en- tertained, in the first instance, for his life ; but he is now in fi state which augurs well for his recovery. Three others have been hurt in these much to be regretted rencontres, but we rejoice to learn they arc outof. all danger. An inquest w as held on Friday, at Mr. Whit- low's, the Gmrgeand Dragon,' Fountain Street, - before John Milne, Esq. Coroner, and a very respectable and intelligent Jury, when, after an investigation of nearly eight hours' duration, conducted with particular nicety, to, elicit . from the respective witnesses the actual facta of the case, a verdict was returned of" Jutifiable Hom- icide." The Weavers, who have likewise struck for an advance of wages, have had their processions carrying banners along with them, bearing the inscription . of '" An advance of seven shillings in the pound or nothing!" On Thursday, they went in an immense body tp Stockport, regulated in their excursion by the. same precision which they had exhibited in out own stieets. On Fri- day^ they set oat to vi3it Ashton under Line, in At the Cheshire assize, s, Mr. Serjeant Best, in his address lo ihe Grand Jury, made tbe follow- ing allusion to the conduct of the refractory cot- ton spinners at Manchester:— " And herCj Gentlemen, ( said his Lordship,) I cannot but advert to those seenes- which have recently been acted in this country. Looking upon . the guilt of those misguided men, in its jnost - serious light, w e cannot but consider it as infinitely inferior to that of those, who, lying in t! ark- concealment, excite and stimulate their victims to riot, ruin, and desolation. Such. Gen- tlemen, are merely the bubbles on the surface ; life Ob use of the tempest must be sought for he- neatli. It is a fact too clear lo admit of a mo- ment's doubt, lliat the whole of those movements which have agitated the peace and tranquillity bf ( be county, are ( he result of a foul and wick- ed conspiracy to destroy the manufactures of ihfi ta nil; " and pregiessfvely moving from crime ta ciilne, to annihilate every thing worth pre- serving in Hie country; This view is by no means exaggerated : ' we all know by the experience of history, that successful orime makes its authors its first victims. Wc all know that during the period of distress which this country lately ex- perienced, and which no human power could p- -> veiit— I Say, Centlcmen, at that period we ail know with what readiness the wealthy portion ofthe crTniniunity contributed the assistance asked— that period happily is gone by ; and now we see those very men whose misery ex- cited our sympathy . and ensured onr assistance, possessed of funds w hicli enable them to stand against their masters, in order to compel them to accede to their demands." " And I think it my duty to stale, that those persons who are guilty of collecting money in any way, with the objeci of strengthening such funds for the support of discontented and refrac- tory workmen; are guilty of a most dangerous conspiracy against the best interests of the country, and if the case of such an offence be brought before you, I have 110 doubt it will be treated as such. " Gentlemen, the law as it at present stands with respect to Ihe appropriation ofthe funds of Friendly Societies, lam apprehensive, has been much abused. By the Act passed, I believe about the S5th of the King, for the encourage- ment Of Friendly Societies, ihe funds collected by them are expressly stated to Le appropriated " for the maintenanee of poor eiud indigent Mem- bers," hot for the use of those who render them- selves poor by their own imprudence and con- tumacy to their employers, but to the really poor and iiilinn. I air. induced here to notice this subject, in order if it appears to you that the - funds of any such Societies are appropriat- ed'to ihe use of any such persons, you will con- sider it us a proof of their malversation, and of the danger which may accrue from it. But these observations are almost needless to such an en- lightened Jury as I am r. ow addressing, and to Gentlemen pf such high respectability. " No Government, how ever, can be safe— no country can enjoy the " real blessing of liberty, if the idle and dissolute, the wicked and seditious,' are supplied with tlie- means ol ' resistance to the laws of tbe land : burin tbe aetto which I have before alluded. there arc certain w holesome pro- visions tending iu a great measure to prevent the progress of such abuses. " Gentlemen-, at litis time, I have to entreat your most serious attention lo the state of the country— at this time, when the eyes ofthe poor as well as the rich look with anxiety on the pro- ceedings to which 1 have adverted. In your high ' and important tViisIs, as Magistrates and as Grand Jurors, you call for the assistance of the welt- disposed, to enlighten ( he ignorant and de- luded offenders, and bring to justice the bald- ened guilty. Would to Cod, Gentlemen, that the deluded would learn how ready and smooth is tbe course which leads from folly to destruc- tion. As Montesquieu observes ofthe savages of Louisiana, like theni*-" to get at fhe fruit they cut dow 11 the tree." For how could our trade be preserved if the sources of it be stopped?— Wlie/ e are ihe workmen to find emplojnient and wages, if the manufactures be destroyed ?- When. f ask, if such copibination's and conspi- racies are to be permitted, is ihe landed propri- etor to recover bis relit, the tradesman his cus- tomers, or the workman his wages? The pe- riod is of high importance to the country at large. " Let the manufacturers be firm in their de- termination, and perform fcavlessly the duty lliey owe to iheir country. Compromise must not he heard. If they concede one tittle, or deli- berate one moment, they are destioyed for ever! and llieir lives and property will be at the mercy of a riotous, wanton, aud lawless mob."
