Griffin, a person of sonic celebrity, “ rioi : E f utical the Chairman and constant attendant - _Anese Session, on an Meetings, was tried on Friday indictment for a sedionsltiticteti by Mr. Andrews and The prosecution rc wat pro s etmtion instituted at the b Ystkitce of ilie Solicitor of the Treasury, against the defendant, who keeps a .shop iu High Holborn for the sale of political pamphlets, for buittl the printer um: publisher of a seditious libel. The libel MS Colliailled in a letter addressed lo Lord Castlegea - ,;11, and pnitorturt to be found in St. James's-gin:ire. It was aililrew•il to his Lordship as if front a Iriettil hiin advice :or his safety to get out of the way oil Imm:whin tetolution. A considerable proportion of the libel was addrest.rd to the soldiers, whom it called 'you to take upon them selves to be arbiters in the present state of affairs, and set the nation free. Fur this 'impose the piddicatinis held out to theta that they should have two shillings pe day.dut big the remainder of their lives. The libel con cluded with the most violent and frothy declamation. Mr. Holland having commented with great force on many passages, proceeded to call evidence of the pubr button of the libel. The cle:"endatit pleaded his own cause, and in his de fence made a speech of cansidetable length, in which he attempted to Justify the tend mcy of the libel, and the integrity of his motives in writing and publishiug it. The delence of the defendant displayed none of that ability for which many individuals, who have recently stood iu the same situation, have been so conspicuous. Mr. Coast, the chairman, summed up in an able and perspicuous manner, w hen the Jury. after having consulted for a short time, found the defendant Guilty. On Saturday afternoon the prisoner was brought up to receive sentence. The Court, after a short consul tation, sentenced him to be imprisoned for 12 mouths in the House of Correction, Coldbath-fields. The defendant stated to the Court, that it had been intimated to him, that he would nut be allowed during the terns of his imprisonment, the use of pen, ink, or paper, fire or candle. He wished to know from the Court, whether he might not have the use of these articles, and appealed to them for their proration in this mater. The Court said, that those were articles of which he certainly would not be deprived of the use, and that the Goal Committee of Magistrates who inspected the pri sons weidd take care that he bad every thing which his situation) could require. The libel upon which the defendant was found guilty was the same upon which . a poor man was tried on the saes day with Waddington, at the last eitarterSessiona, for having distributed, and who was convicted and sen tenced to sic mouths imprisonment. It had beeu moat industriously distributed amongst the people assembled at the West end of the town during the proceedings against the Queen. Tin NATIONAL LW:WU Vo!ice. ....._ )w.s.ritt , Er.

IMPORTANT CASE TO PAEISU ()mem Edward Thompson was indicted under the 33rd Henry VIII. c. I, for obtaining money under false pre tences from Mr. Edward Burton, one of the Overseers of Orinedby. The prosecutor carted, that en the 89th of August . last, between seven and eigfrt in the evening, the pri soner, accompanied by three women, one man, and three children, applied to him for relief. Ile produced a pass warrant to Beverley, in Yorkshire, granted under the 38th George 111. c. 22 (passed for enabling wives and families of soldiers to return to their homes), to his mother and her family, consisting of time girls and two boys, besides himself, whom he said were forward, which was dated at Burbadoes, in the West Indies, signed by the Lieutenant-Colonel of the sth regiment of foot (C. Pratt), and by a magistrate at Newport, of the name of Richard Bassett. Mr. Burton paid him the usual allowance, which was specified in the pass, being three halfpence for his mother, Id. for each child per mile. Suspecting the warrant was a counterfeit, from his having received no less than 25 similar ones within a short period, from different persons, that seemed to have been filled up (being blank printed forms) and signed by the same person, although the signatures were attempted to be disguised. he had the prisoner appre hended. Fortunately for the ends of justice the lrautl was discovered and brought home to the culprit, from an endorsement on the warrant, purporting to he signed by Dr. Bateman, late Mayor of Yarmouth, signilying when the prisoner's mother and her family !angled at that port, which was proved to be a forgery, and as a matter of inference the rest was so likewise. The prisoner was sentenced to pay a fine of is. and to be Imprisoned six months in Wymondham bride well. Mary Bredford, Eliza Thompson, Margaret Bredford, John Bredford, and Jane Thompson, the persons who were in company with the last mentioned prisoner when he applied for relief, and who were also relieved by Mr. Burton, were charged with the like offence, hut ac Tutted, in consequence o f th e ev id ence not tieing suf ficient to support the case for the prosecution ; they hay ing decamped upon the first alarm, :uid it is supposed destroyed their pass -warrants. --- Failure of Capt.

Alderman Scholey was present, and took .a part in the investigation. The bill-sticker said, he did not like, ill/shininess the first, anJ that he went to consult Harrison the Mar shalman, the night before, upon the propriety of pot ting the order into execution. Harrison advised him not to do it until he had consulted Mr. liVontner ; but he (the bill-sticker) could not see the naarshalsman at the time, and Mr. Stokes hail promised to indemnify him for any injury he might sustain; he therefore thought flowing inischiesous could take place, and ac , cordingly snick the bill. Mt. Stokes then admitted that he was the printer of the placard. The Lord Xlayor—" Did you print it from your own mind, or at the suggestion and by the cot 1111 l and of any other person? " Mr. Sioltes.—" I decline answering that question, but am ready to answer for the offence of priming the bill, if it be . -aily offence. The Lord Mayor.—" I feel it to be my duty to inier pose upon this occasion. There are in my opinion, per sons who might take advan.age of a public invitatiou of this sort. Tue rabble might be excited to a disturbance of the peace of the city of which I am chief magistrate, and am bound to prevent such an occurrence." Mr. liicke.—" My Lord, this placard is not calculated to produce any disturbance. It cootains an expression of that of which your Lordship is aware—the public opinion of the Queen's innocence." the Lord Mayor.—" I repeat that 1 will not allow it, and if any mine placards are stuck up the person shall be taken into custody. It is necessary that, Limier all circumstances, I should preserve the peace of the city. I shall neither suffer bills to be stuck up against norfor the Queen." Mr.Eicke.—" This bill cannot be called for or against the Queen. It expresses, in common with the opinion of toy fellow citizens, my conviction, which is, that she is completely innocent. The citizens of Loodon, iu C on 11.11 , expressed themseli es to this effect, and the bill is giuu.itled upon their decided opinion. If I think proper I shall illuminate." Alderman Scholey.—" Not one in ten hare expressed themselves so. I would not illuminate. 11 the man persists ; he shall be taken into casiody." Mr. Eicke.—" 1 wish j...dr Lordship would say whe ther you consider this treason or sedition, or wh .t. — Your Lordship has called meetings in the city upon the ft►bject, and were not subject to such imputations." The Lord Mayor.—" 1 du not give it any such name ; and I must declare, that I have been nustindersiond is my object in calling uut the soldiers on a former Occa sion.

The match for :30 guineas aside between Abrahams Buxton, a Yeoman, who keeps a small farm at Trent, Oxon, anti Macklin a half black, tool place on Tuesday, and it wps a real smashing fight. The men had set-to with gloves otlen, but they lostitt action the little they had hen taught at bloodless lighting, and they were too gay to receive without giving. Tile battle was to have been fought a short distance fram Burnham, but some ear- pri , ming hay. lug taken place, and for fear o 1 disappointment, the ring was broke up and a fresh one Ruined in (ktford shire, at Dunstlen, in a meadow belonging to a gentleman named Paget. George Towers seconded Buxton, and Sam VOW, the cricketer, picked. upt the black. Ohr ciurespondent describes it as a pretty smagt. log fight of 14 rounds in 3S minutes. The black, who weighs more than 13 stone, and 10lbs more than bis adversary, led with much gaiety, and aticr Buxton bad met him coming in with the right Lind, a during rally followed, and they hit away until their heads were well crimsoned, and Buxton gave blackee a Leavy fall in fine wrestling style. The second was a hard fia!ght round in favour of the black, whose strength bored his adversary from him, but he was again thrown. 3. This was a round which wasted the straigilaof both by hitting. In a rally the black received a tremendous right handed blow on the ear (a-la Neate) which swelled instantly as if a wen of years standing had been there ; and about the same time Buxton's nose was broke in pieces as if a surgeon had been at work. They bled copiously, and both went down weak. The men were so much reduced, that the next six rounds produced nothing to remark upon, ex cepting that the black met two heavy fulls. llth round. Both went to work again, and hit each other to a stand still, and Buxton was floored by a clean left handed hit. IQ. The black tell in making play, and did not seem to care about getting up again, and his head was very heavy. 13. Buxton led in bull dug ficition, and the black . went down with a sli ; ;b1.
