130 11 IGU TREASON. OLD BATLEY. FILIDAY. Arno. V. TitIAL OF JAMES INtis, The Court met tins morning, pursuant to adjourn ment, to proceed in the trial of the other prisoners for bight tre3loll- The Court was very thinly attended, nor was the crowd in the Old Bailey near so great as it had Is.iert on the former days, although there was the saute attrodauce of constables to keep the avenues clear, and toe miser arrangements woe such as to afford the great est facility to the proceeding's. Proclatuaion having *been made in the usual font), the jurors entered, and nearly filled tine body of the Conn. At a few minutes past nine o'clock, the Lord Citief .Iwaice of the Court of Common Pleas, the Lord Chief Baron, and Mr. Justice Richardson, took their seats on the 110161. The Lord Chief JusEce Abbott was not in Coon. The Duke of Hamilton ' Marquis of Lansdown, I.:xi Sefton, Sir J a mes Shaw, Sir Richard Carr Glyn, and Mr. Alderman NVaithman, were on the Bench. Lord Chief Justice Dallas.—Bring in the prisoner, James The prisoner was itninediately put to the bar. He was dressed in black clothes, as before, and looked per fectly composed, though paler than on the former day. In the course of the day he pulled out several oranges, which he divided with his unfortunate fellow prisoners. It was mutually agreed that the names of the jurymen should be called over front the point at which the Court left off when the jury in the last case was selected, that is to say, at No. 108. 'ldnefollowing Jury was empannelled : Clarks Fanner, St. John's Street, hardwareman. George Santo, St. John's Square, Clerkenwell, ja panner. Wm. More, Uttion Street, Limehouse, bricklayer. James Eades, Lampton, farmer. Thomas Beauchamp, Beaton, farmer. Benjamin Blythe, lslcworth, organ builder. John Beck, Guiders Green, Hendon, gentlemm and ocedsinan. William Percy, Cleveland Street, Marylebone, plas ter Zr. Benjamin Rogers, Lampton, farmer. John Young, Frederick Place, St. Pancras, gent. and scale maker. James Carey, Wade Street, Poplar, joiner. William Edgecumbe, ditto. The Jury hating been sworn at 10 o'clock, Dlr. Shelton proceeded to read the Indictment. It was the same which has been already described in the case of Thistlewood. The Jurymen nut sworn were then told that they might depart for the present, and glee their attendance on Monday. Mr. Bolland having shortly opened the indictment, The Solicitor-General rose at ten o'clock to address the Jury for the prosecution. It was hardly necessary fur him, he said, to entreat their calm and patient at tention to the facts which he should have to lay before them ; for he wtut convinced that they felt the necessity of paying it, not only in obedience to the dictates of their own cousztences, but as imperathely due to the prisoner at the bar. In justice to him there was one fact now known to them, and to which he might there fore, without impropriety, allude—he meant the con• viction of Arthur Thistlewood. They were bound not sulti:r that fact to operate in any way to the prejudice of the present pre:oiler, but solely to judge of his guilt or inniteetice upon the evidence they would bear this day adduced against hilts, and on that alone. On the law of the case, he was under no necessity of snaking a single observation —not a doubt had been as yet thrown upon that part of the subject. The Solicitor General then stated the nature of the charge, and tilt evidence which he (Willa to adduce agaiiist the prisoner, and which, in obedience to the order It the Court, we refrain at present )rum putilishing. The learned gen tleman spoke for an limn and a quarter. Lord Chief Justice Dallas—Let the other prisoners be brought in. The prisoners, wah the exception of Thistlewood, were then brought into the dock, and severally answered to their names, except Wilson, w no, on being called or: as James William Wilson, said that his name was not Witham. 'lthy all distilated th.• utmost firmness, and exhibited less anxiety about the proceedings than the spectator around them. None oh the prisoners applied for the indulgence of a chair. l'he first witness calico was Robert Adams, formerly a soldier in the Life Guards (Blue). He wai. examined Ly the Atiurnev-Gerieral, and gave nearly the same evi dence which he had already detailed on Thistlewood'a trial. During the exautination of Adams, Brunt appeared very active in taking notes on a slip of paper, and fre quently g•ne indications of denying such part of the evidence as affected himself. Eleatior Walter was next examined, and gave the same testiumn • Ai she old on Tuesday last. The witness' s called against Thistlewood were called in this case, a.ti -is e pr cisely the same evidence. At eight o'clock, Bishop. who apprehended Thistk,„„,i, was called, but did nut appear. The exhibition before the Jury of the various articles seized was postponed till to-wortow. The Court adjourned at eight, till nine to•morrou morning. •It is remarkable that Dwyer has not been called its this case. The Court was by no gleans eiosealed. Tile in 'boners, since Wednesday, have remained in a state of :treat dejection; Davidson piidosnphicany says, 4 ' it cal,'‘ he helloed;" and "that they can (1;t: but ()lice."

THE NATIONAL REGISTER. On Tninsday his son applied for, and obtained an order trout the fury Council to sce him. The unfortunate boy was hi ail agony of grief on quitting the prisoner. .Itigs was on Thursday so front the state Of his mod, that it hecaine necessary to call in the aid of the apothecary to the gaol. Mr. Brown COLOMOCS his humane attention to the prisoners, and does all in his power to render their situ ation continuable; of this they all express their cousci- ousness. Walker, I he person who occastonally took the chair at the Smithfield and Finsbury meetings, was in one of the gallerits yesterday, and received a nod of recognition from severvl of the prisoners. This man was the bearer of the roll, reprtsenung Magna Charta, in procession. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. When the Grand Jury of these sessions came into Court on Thursday to be discharged, one of them, John Fore, sen. Esq. said he had a presentment to make, and the following was read:— " I, John Farey, of Howland-street, Fitzroy-square, one at the Jurors of our Sovereign Lord tile King, as sembled at the General Quarter Sessions of the Peace, holden on Tuesday , the I Ith day of April, 18VO, at Hicks's Hall, in and for the county of Middlesex, and duly sworn and charged to make presentments, do think it my duty to present as follows, riz.—Tiit on tit: examination of witnesses, who appeared before this Grand Jnry to support indictments against certain per sons (about 40 in number), severally chartted either with uttering or attetnpting to otter (or pass), or else with having in their possession certain notes, %vincn were produced (about to the number of 20), the same t • were, by the Bank Inspector, sworn to be forged inll - of Bank of England notes; because (as he stated) such notes were not printed off from any ca. the plates belonging to the Bank of England, or on the paper used by the said Bank for the printing of their notes. Whereupon, in answer to further questions pot to such Inspector, he repeatedly and distinctly stated to this Grand Jury to Inc following effect, viz. that each, and every one of the notes which he had (so as aforesaid) sworn to he +marries were impressions (or copies) printed off from plates, with the existence of which plates he was previously and well acquainted, from having, in the course of his of inspections, often before examined impressiolis from these said forged plates ; and all ul which plates and notes he (the In spector) utidersmod, and verily believed, to have been engraves and forged, in or near the town of Birmingham, in Warwickshire. On snore than one occasion, the same witness stated to t his Grain! Jury, that some parti cular person (or persons) residing in ur near Bowing. ham was very stiongly suspected of being the eugraver and loner of such plates and notes: yet the further questions put to this and anotner witness, nit the part of the Batik of England, failed of producing evidence or information to this Grand J my, whether attempts had • actually been made to search for, and seize the tools and implements and the stock of the engraver and forgers at the many notes which have lately been found 11l the bOSSCS6IOII of titterers in the county of Middlesex, and rought before this Grand Juty, as aforesaid. " Under these circumstances I have deemed it my indispensable duty, and do, at colistaptence, hereby humbly pray the Court, that the Justices therein assem bled will, without delay, as far as in their power Ib-s, cause the most energetic and efficient moats which .tr. known, and the laws will by any ,1110 W, w toe used and put in twee for fully detecting, punishing, ano dillt:_rther stopping, the highly illegal practices of a n y slu m holesale forgers and first utterers of forget Bank tit E.l.,land notes, whereby the strong 41111 almost lir,- se. wie temptation wino% such first titterers (and more especially so their emissaries dispersed throuabont country) daily hold out to distiessed and ignorant persons, for inducing them to engage in the highly illegal stint mischievous traffic of latting and uttering toned notes, would, it is firmly helmeted, in a great ~...-asure, if not altogether, be put a stop to, because none ot the no:es which have conic before this Grand Jury appeared to be first, s :parate, or independeat acts of f o rgery; our dud it appear front the evidence adduced thereon, that the persons indicted were likely persons to have engaged ' or to have been able to have effected the forgeries of the notes, with the tittering or possessing of w h i ch a t , A were severally tharaed. The flighty-ittjurions effects of such a state of tilimAs on the morals of tile poorer classes of society, and the great losses to which tradesmen anti others are daily exposed, through ihis continued :aid ex tended issue and utterance at forged notes, induces itie confidently to hope, that effectual measures may be de vised, and put in practice, for entirely slopping the same. (Si g ned) " JOHN FAHEY, Sen." The foreman said, that himself and all his brother jurors, except Mr. Farey, were dissentieni from the observations contained in this document ; it, however, the assertions it contains be facts, we iitoilt it a very rational procedure, for certainly if the Bank possess such information as to enable them to ytu to the fountain head of the evil, it appears to tis criminal in them not to avail themselves of it. FRANSFORT, APRIL 9.—Our fa►r has turned out tolerably well. In some articles, particularly lea• thcr, u good deal of business ha been done with advantage. But we never expect our fair to be really prosperous us long as the heavy tolls and duties in Germany exist. Our field', and vineyards promise wcll. The persons who have formed themselves into a Committee, sit daily at a house in a (Ain in the Old Bailey, fiir the purpose of receiving information 'dative to the &fence of the unfOrtunate men now u nder via on the charge of High Treasen. THE NEW CATHOLIC CHAPEL, MOOR-FIELDS This beautiful Chapel, which has attracted sa much of the public attention for some time, being now interiorly finished, was opened fie• public service on Thursday last, for the first time ; on which day the ceremony of its consecration and dedication took place with all the solemnity of the Catholic Chureh. High Mass was celebrated, and a sermon suitable to the occasion preached. The music, which was composed expressly fur the occasion, was performed by'the first rate vocal and instrumental performers in the kingdom, and no person.: but those professing the Catholic religion took a part. The application for tickets fir some time had been numerous, and a great many persons of rank and distinction were disappointed, every ticket being disposed of, though the nave of the chapel is calculated to hold two thousand persons, without the galleries. The French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Bavarian Ambas. sadors were present, besides the Duke of Norfolk, the Earl and Countess of Shrewsbury, Lord and Lady I'etre, Lord and Lady Clifford, and many other persons of distinction of the Catholic persuasion, as well us many of the Established Church, all the Catholic Bishops and Clergy, in and within several miles of the 'necropolis. The ceremony was peculiarly grand and imposing, from the nature of the solemn and impressive ceremonies used in the Catholic Church, together with the superb appearance of the Chapel, which will remain a lasting monument to the refined taste and judgment of Mr. Newman, the architect; Mr. A. Aglio, the painter; and Mr. Cornolli, the sculptor. The Altar piece is a panorama represen tation of the Crucifixion, and is .55 feet long, by 3:: ti.tet high, aed contains 250 figures as large as life. The Lading is painted with the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, and in several compartments all round with subjects relating to the Lite of Christ. The Altar is of the finest statuary marble ; and so is the Tabernacle sculptured in the richest manner; the Pulpit deserves particular notice It would fill paper to describe me beauties of this place of worship.
