(ance of the apprnach-Ino- (etiM' somewhat K) restrain their dwpost-jon to cheer the prisoner, and there was more seriousness than before in their demeanour. Watson was thought too Jo show in his features ihe anxiety which it was impossible be should not feel; but, in walking through (tie Hall, he recognised some friwids or acquaintance, and bowed and smiled lo them with much complacency. At ten o'clock Lord Ellenborough arrived, and soon after began his summing up.

At about half-past twelve, before entering upon the evidence of Castles, his Lordship and the other Judges retired from the Bench and took some refreshment. On returning his Lordship went through that, and the remainder of the evidence, concluding his phargeat Jen minutes to five. His Lordship's comments wertTuot long, but they were emphatic. When the Jury were about to retire to a room, prepared for (heir deliberation, Lord Elleoborough said, that as they must be fatigued, the court would willingly allow them to take refreshments, but they must receive them in their box, after they had retired, the law would allow them none, until they had delivered (heir verdict. A Juryman thanked his Lordship, aud obsemd, that a cup ot tea would be grateful.

They were told that tea would be ready in ten minutes. After a pause, the Jury said, that to save the time of the court, they would dispense with refreshments. The court observed, that some might be necessary, and that wine.and water could be soon had. It was then ordered, and one, or two bottles of wine, with some water, were brought into court, of which the Jury partook. Lord Ellenborough told them not to be in a hurry, the court would very readily wait.

Officers sood alter escorted them out of court to their room. Most ot the Barristers in the front seats, after the retirement of the Jury, stood up; as did Watson, folding his arms. ARer-wirds, he wrote a note to Mr. Harraer, Ins solicitor, then conversed with Mr. Wetherall, who was on the floor of the'eourt, and received Mr.

Harmer's answer. The Officer, to whose care the Jury were committed, took lite following onth: You shall weil aud truly keep this Jury, without meat, drink, or ftre. You shall suffer no person whatever to speak to them, nor you yourself, unless it be to ask them, whether they are agreed, or not." Before the return of the Jury, great huzzai ng and clapping of hands were heard in theHall. Much surprize, it not constematiou, was appareut in court. Lord Ellen said, the Kail tuight to be cleared, and Mr.

Sheriff Kirby went out, as if for that purpose, but quiet svas preseuth' restored, and it was found that the applause had been given to the Lord Mayor, ois his passing j.hroii!','i the Hall. The .1 ury were absent about an hour and three quarters. tiuii return, while all countenances were fixed upon theirs and a breathless anxiety prevailed; the Foreman, Mr. Richardson, with a distinct and firm voice, pro-uouur-ed ti.e vii.iict NOT GUILTY. Watson (bowing respectful towards the Jury, and pnitiiv his band lo i heart) said, with great force and feeling, Geui lemea, 1 thank you much." After a short pause, Lord Elleuboroub asked the Attorney-General, if ha had any other charge against the Prisouer Auorucv-Geueral answered, No, my Lord" Lord fci.YiiboYoiigb replied, Then let him he discharged." At the suggestion of Lord Kllenboroiigh, Watson retired a private way, arm in arm with his Solicitor.

The Tury also ollowed the same route, to avoid the boisterous approbation of the people. The crowd was so p-reat, that even an hourafter, large bodies still remained though multitudes were seen pouring down all the streets oo their return. Watson, still accompanied by his Solicitor, proceeded fcy a circuitous route to Hattsa -garden, where he dined w-iib that Gentleman. On bis return he was recognized hi Holborn by the mob, who took the horses from his coach, and dragged the vehicle to the house of a Mr. Vest, in Wycb-street (one of his former bail) nearly pppositethe Oiympic Theatre.

A crowd assembled before ihe'door, and celebrated their triumph, as they calledi )i, by forcing the hackney -coachmen who passed to null oil their" bats and shout "Watson for ever!" They became clamorous to see the object of their applause, and'the call was complied with. Watson appeared at the window of the first floor. Several candles were thrust put by those who were in the room, on each side of him, ihat the populace might have a view of his features. Jle bowed repeatedly, and appeared to thank them for interest they took in fate. A Gentleman who accompanied hj in briefly expressed Watson's acknowledgments, but said, he was too much fatigued to address them on ihe present occasion." Mr.

Watson aud his friends then prepared to withdraw, by bidding the mob "Good night." A general cry of Home, home," was ilu-u raised) aDd the crowd dispersed peaceably. TUESDAY, JUNE 17th. vrSON, HOOPER. PRESTON, TH1STLE-" WOOD, DECLARED NOT GUILTY. In consequence of the acquittal of Watson, the prose-pillion of the other prisoners, Tiiistlewood, Preston, and Hooper, HAS, THIS HAY, BEEN ABANDONED.

ese individuals were conducted into Court at one when a Jury was sworn in with the usual forms on which the Attorney-General rose, and stated, that he bad to inform the Court that It was not his intention to eall any witnesses to the charges that bad been exhibited ao-ainst the prisoners. -The Jury of course instantly pro-uouueed their verdict of-NOT GUILTY! and the prisoners were liberated and, on the suggestion of the Court, retired through the back entrance of Westminster-hall. Although the prisoners retired by the back avenue ot the Court, they were soon traced out by the multitude, a ca l) was procured, the horses were taken out, and the prisoners having ascended, they were dragged in procession up Parliament-street, Whitehall, and along the Strand into Wych-street, amid loud aud continued cbeerings. wi The second reading of the Habeas Corpus Suspension BUI was agreed to this morning in the Lords by a majority of 109 to 60. Lord Grenvilleexpressed his sentiments decidedly in support of the measure, both on the ground pf necessity andou the principle of a temporary sacrifice for the permanent security and stability of the Constitution.

The Church, it is said, will be finished by tbe 12th of August Car'Aboo! It will be seen in a preceding page of our paper, that the wonderful Female, who has outwitted the Doctor puzzled the learned, and astonished the out to be a vile impostor, a vagrant wauderer, atid daughter of a poor cottager in the village of in this county. We have made some enquiries respecting this extraordinary young Lady, aud there is great reason to believe that she was for some time an inmate in the Devon County Bridewell as-it appears, in the House list of Prisoners that in the Summer Sessions of 1814, at the Castle of Exeter, a MARY Ann Baker, of tbe parish of Witheridge, then aged twenty-one, (whose black eyes, aPblied eye-brows, white teeth, sweet 'smile, are recollected to bear a striking similitude with the bewitching features of Cahaboo, so. exquisitely described by Dr. Wilkinson,) was tried, convicted, and 'sentenced lo.six months imprisonment, for stealing a piece of cloth.

This is all very right and proper. But, it.

is subject of consideration and question, with privileged and incor porated Towns, some of whose property may consist in old-establiatyed jhpu'sjes. to know, how those houses are to be shouldlhis clause bepassed into a Law, since all the licensing. Magistrates must be interested in such Houses We doubtnotpublic Bodies, so situated, will bestir themselves in time, to get the clause so shaped, as not to infringe on the property they are the guardians of.
