In a letaer, dated June the 20th, we have the followhtg ac. count of the newly-discovered country in New Snuth Wales, behind the Blue Mountains, which before the year 1614, was a complete Terra Jneoguiln:•-- "The new country is but thinly peopled, anti its natives re semble much those about Sydney, though their language is very different: they differed also in. being well covered whh kangaroo skins, sewed together very neatly with sinews of the emus; they wore the fur side next their skins, and on the upper or flesh side they bad picked,. very ingeniously at d re gularly. ornamental devices, among which were crosses. They see•oted to be a laughing,. g,:colmatured people, without savac , • uarlike spirit or fury of the Sydney natives. They hail with them tamed native dogs, with which I fancy they caught kangaroos. Their spears ale heavy and clumsy, and they tlu•uw them only a short distance out of their bands, like the New Zealanders. " The day we left Badrirst Plains, tho Governor dispatelival Mr. Evans, Deputy Land Stirs evor, with two men and horses, to procced , as far as he could to the westward. lie returned a few days ask), after haring penetrated in a due west direction 11. i miles from Bathurst. 11e reports all the track of country he ihtssed over to be even lu l u rior to that we explored, and mach more thickly peopled; which he attributes to the asto nishing herds he constantly. saw of kangaroos and emus, on which the natives- subsisted, together with abundance of fish, which a estisideiably-sized river, running to the westward, abounded with. "The river is nearly the size of the llawkeshury ; and, as far as lie can judge, may he easily explored with a boat, or tra velling along its banks, through a. beautiful plain fertile coun try. He has brought with him hillier w large quantity of the finest manna I have ever seen, whiob he collected among the grass and in the burnt fields, whiek he described to be cluster ed with it, in small pieces. I conclude it to be the produce of our locust insect !Tetigonia); either what those insects have deposited in the grass, or what they routained.when they were destroyed by the grass taking lire.

The city, at the distance of 15 miles, where we had the that sight of it, leaks very much scuttered,und the surrounding, country very low and extremely barren. At 12 .o'clock on the 15th, we entered' the capital at the Party del Poptilo, where-ow passport was demanded.

The little time that we have been here has already convinced us how inadequate are drawings or descriptions to give an idea of what Rome possesses.

The jury t onsisted of Trouillebert, Tiron, Duplessts, Lemit,Therenin, Clifton de Chapelle, Eden, Blainvilliers, 3larze, Deflect., Marecray, (.ottereau. The ac cused were intioduccd, and placed on different benches ac cording to the nature of the difierent charges against til4El. General Wilson was in grand uniform, 311111 ornamented with brilliant decorations of seven or right of ders of diflerent states of Europe, one of which was the grand cordon of the Hessian Order of St. Aline. Captain Hutchinson wore the uniform and decorations of his rank. At 11 o'clock, M. Di seze, jun. the president of the court, opened the sitting in these terms :—`‘ The court is goin,oo sub ndt to the investigation of the jury several accused persons, French and foreigners,. in a caussi which has for a long time fixed the public attention. The court is convinced that the persons admen's.' to this assembly will not M any way distort. the public tranquillity: that they will observe that religious silence which is duets) the presence of law and injustice. trice accused being called upon to give their names, surname, and qualities, gave their description as before mentioned. M. Bruce said with energy—l ant an English citizen. The President then observed. that although the three Eng lishmen relit(' upon the, correct kwouledge which they ;q -ueered to have of the French language, and did not ask for an interpreter, yet the law of Framse, always a law of protection. willed t h at the accused should not be deprived of any means oft facilitating their justification, even when unclaimed; the nourt, therefore, named to that offire-M. John Robert, alto ac cordingly took the usual oath. M. Bruce (speaking the French language.)—(katlemen of the Bench and tientkarsoi of the Jury, I have a declaration to ' make to yon in the name of *Anf cud my two countrymen. 'Although we have submitted ourselves to the French law in consequence of the accusation against us, we have never lost the privilege of iiimkiug. the law of nations. Reciprocity among nations is the 'list article of all treaties ; and as in Eng land French culprits have the right of demanding a jury emu • posed hat of Englishmen and half of fureigneis. tt appeared to us that the same right, or, if you will, the same far our, could not be refused to us in Fl'alICC. With this view, we snbinitted . to mt lawyers of our own nation several questions, the so. !Mimi lir which might justify the right of which we speak. Streeftthened by their decision, we sMnild have been justified in demanding the favour of a jury half French and half Em,..- lish : 64, gentlemen, considering the justice which has beau -rendered us by the chamber of accusation, (in acquitting us .of any plot against the tranquillity of Europe, and paitionlarly against the French govt raiment ), we have determined to re. nominee our right. We, thorefore, abandon ourselves fully, and without reserve, to the honour end conscience of a jury en tirely composed of Freochteen we do out even make the least ahallenge. lf, notwithstanding, we think it necessary to make a special declaration : it is to expi esa that we only renounce the right • us tar as we are porsonally concerned, and to prevent any precedent being drawn from our caseugainst those of oar com patriots who may hereafter be in the same situation. 'Ye can not and will not prejudice their rights.. In faith witereof we • have signed our present declaim' M. Mem. (advocate for the English).—Will the court be pleased to enter this declaration un the record.? M. ii!Lt, advocate•g,eneral.--This declaration is calculated to irtunish! To claim in France, for an offence committed in France, the privileges of a foreign legislature, is to set at nought the iirst principles of social order: the form in which the pretension-is urged does mu:-at all change its nature. We oppose the entering this protest w declaration on the record. M. Di etst4the advocate of the Englislinieul maintained that no French law prethil•ited the composition of a jury half of Frenchinen.and half of fun igners. It was u question entirely 'new. which might fairly be discussed, and might or might nut he decided against the accused ; they, however, renounce the discussion, but in reuoisneing it they wish their declaration to be recorded. They will one day return to their country, and they do not wish to expose themselves to the reproach of having sacrificed the right w Medi eminently belongs to an English citi zen—that of maintaining use•n in chains, the prerogatives of a true man. M. the ADVOCATE-GENERAL.—To say Ilsat they submit to he tlied.4 the French law, is to say, that it'„,they did not sun mil. theArtal could nut take place. It is this pretension which I repot. for the national honour and interest. It matters little whether in your hearts you submit to the French legislation ; you ate submitted to it by necessity. Crime is a thing pecu liarly belonging to local jurisdiction. The eaence was com mitted in Fiance, the prosecution of it belongs exclusively to the Frrncli.law : English pri:oncrs, therefore, stand on your di relief! ( Ac.:ltse Jughtis, eafenile cousam.) The Court, after a short deliberation, pronounced the follow ing derision : • liecuitse every ofrenee committed in a territory is an object of jot isdietion, and because the exception demanded by the l English prisoners is not allowed by any constrnetion of the .criminal code of France, the Court decla►es that there is no ermind for the recording, et request of the English pri !..oncrs, the declaration now made by them, the Court therefore. ustlers the trial to proceed." licrc the clerk read the arri:t of the act of accusation drawn
