to understand where the lass- ends or crime begins; but which is said to meatt the beinging the government and time laws into contempt, and exciting discon- tent, to the danger of' the public peace. If this be so, what ought to be the reward of a government or of a legislative body, which brings itself, by its acts or its laws, into contempt, and thereby causing dissaffection among the people?

Here, therefore, is an anomaly that the rulers of any country, guilty of causing contempt by their measures, not only escape condemnation, but nsay not, fir such conduct, be hehl up by any of' the sufferers, to public reprobation and obloquy, or the offending parties become prosecuted by the perpetrators of the originating mischief; as its sole instigators ; the conteniptible, in effect, punish- ing the contempt.

Affairs begin to as- sume a problem, new in political ethics, but which may not require a seer to solve. It has hitherto been the case to sacrifice the people—it now remains to be seen how far the case may be reversed, and the people can betray their leaders, when they hare the power, if they have the united will, to avert nil consequenees. Time will show this also. But, if this do happen, the rising generation still probably profit by it, so that in the distance there are, at all events, SOnle gleams a hope. The political horizon appears lowering at last over tite domestic hearth, for we are about to have regularly disciplined bd. gantlien let loose upon us, iii pristine and compound terrors. hem, therefore, 1 must for the present pause.

Jones was committed on a charge of high treason.

On the examination of Richard Benfield and John Rees, Lieutenant Basil Cray, of the Forty-fifth Regiment, described the attack on the Westgate Hotel, and the measures he tools to repel it-

" I received orders on Monday morning last, at a little after eight o'clock, from Major Stack, to proceed to the Westgate Hotel, and put myself under the orders of the Mayor. I repaired there Immediately with thirty men, and formed in front of time building. The mayor then desired me to enter the court- yard, the gate of which was closed after me. The Mayor then took me to the building on the right of the hotel ; and asked me it' that was fit for my sere vice ?—it was tu room on the right think. I saimi it would do ; and I immediately proceeded to clear it of the furniture and other articles. This took some time, 48 the roomn was tilled witlt smoke, and not habituble. It had been full of con- stables all night. I then marchemi my men in. The Mayor gave me instruc- tions to conceal my men as much as possible, to avoid irritating the mob, which was then approaching. To effect flute, I closed the under-shutters of the room; there were three projecting bow-windows, I had only time to give my snot a few instructions, when I heard cheering, and the Mayor told me the mob was approaching. They formed in front of' the house, and I could. see :view spear- heads. They immediately let fly a volley of stnall-arms. This demolished the windows of the room we were in. I immediately gave the word to load. I did not do this before, as I was in hopes matters would not turn out so seriously. While my men were loading, about one-third of' a minute, the crowmt effected an entrance into time passage, which cotnmunicated with a door from our room. As soon as we had loaded, I stepped forward to unlatch one of the window- shutters, anti the Mas.or opened another. 'rids unmasked us ; and a quantity of small-arms were discharged at us, by which the Mayor was twice wounded, and my sergeant by my side (Daly) wounded ill the head. I saw him covered with blood immediately- after. I heard them both say that time)' were hit. The Mayor said it to ine only in a whisper, which could not be heard by my men. Ile went and sat down. The sergeant also only spoke to me. My men soon got to work, and enfiladed the streets from time bow-windows, mid time passage from the door-way in our room. This continued for about ten minutes, when 1 saw our shots had become thin for want of objects. The Chartists' shots were not repeated after our soldiers commenced. firine. I then went into the passage with a few men, to see how things were lotling. I saw there was no more attack; and I returned to the room and ordered the men to cease firiug from the bow-windows. I then made every preparation to strengthen my po- sition in case of a second attack. While so employed, I entered a side-room leading from the passage, and found the two prisoners in the corner. I ordered them to follow me, and gave them over to my men as prisoners. I saw nothing in their hands ; hut on examining their persons 1 found a quantity of ball-am- munition on Benfield. When I saw them, I was removing a dead body from the passage iu case of a second attack. They had evidently gone into the room to avoid the fire of my men, and could not get out agmun. My men searched them; and just after their pockets were emptied, I saw them eating

some bread and cheese given them by my men. I collected ninc dead bodies. I dare say the Mayor gave me orders to fire ; butt 1 do not recollect. When I was fired upon I did not want any instruction to return it. The Mayor MIS by my side,'

The prisoners were committed for high treason.

Evidence affecting Frost was given by Barnabas Brough, brewer and wine-merchant, who was mentioned last week as having fallen among a party of Chartists, and released by Frost's orders. After having been compelled to march along with the rioters during the night for a eon- siderable distance, the witness arrived with them at Cefa about day- break on Monday, the day of the attack on Newport. When there, he inquired for Frost— I heard Frost say, 'Mr. Brough,' or ' where is Mr. Broug,h ?' I said, 'here I am.' I got up immediately, and he approached me. I tomplained to him. Ile asked me first what brought me there? or how I came there? I stud I was glad to see him there; and requested him to get me released. I referred him to the parties who took me into custody for time cause of my being there. He said I was an old friend and a good fellow, and he would endeavour to dis- charge me : he said he hated and detested my politics, though he respected me personally. He said I was dismissed, or discharged: I dont know which word he used. I immediately left them. I do not know any of the men that were with me. They kept their faces away from me when they passed. I think Frost had on a rough great-coat and a black limit; butt I did not notice it par- ticularly. While I was witlt them, I heard frequent conversations about their success; that they would have liberty or death. I heard nothing definite as to any particular object, or where they were going. I don't think that they knew themselves ; for they frequently went backwards and forwards, as though they expected information. There was a lighted candle in the toll-house while I was changing my stockings. I identified the man who stood over me with a drawn sword. I never. saw him before, but I am sure I should know him again. 'heard frequently ordinary names mentioned, such as Morgan and Jones ; but none that struck me. I heard nothing said while. Frost was there. I had a con- versation with one of the men on the road, and in the public-house about Chart- ism; and very well he argued. He first told me he understood I was an Anti- Chartist. I said! was. He called me by my name : I think they all knew me. He asked me in what I differed from them—waa it out Universal Suffrage ? I said that was one of the grand points on which I differed with them ; I said I thought it was impossible and impracticable. He said they were not seeking It; hut that mere num twenty-one years of age, and of sound mind and untainted with erase, should enjoy the same rights as a nobleman. I was led to believe, from what I heard and saw, that they took these means to obtain what they soualit. That was the impression on my mind. They were continually susinr tie words 'Liberty or death.' While we were halting on one occasion, 1 heard one man say—, I fear we shall not get to Newport to-night.' '.fhis was between the lane and the Cefh. We had several marches and counter-marelea;, but event- ually went towards Risca. The first thing I heard about Frost was an inquire for ' Frost's men.' rhis was after we left thentoll-house. It was constant-1.y uaderstool and sod, that we were going to meet a main body ; but I am quite certain that nothing was said when Frost was present about going to Newport. I understood, from my being dismissed after seeing Frost, that he was in euthority. There was no shouting when Frost apucared. There was much shouting outside when new bodies arrived. When we arrived there was nsurlt shouting. I have scarcely any doubt that Frost was the leader of these men. When he came into the room they made way for him. When I was discharged, ILA thirteen miles to walk. I did not know the country very well, but I made the boat of my way to the point I knew best--the tumulus on the end of the hills—Tym Barlwin. I was so exhausted that I spread my macintosh on the furze bushes and laid down. I was frequently obliged to do so betbre I got home, I was so dreadfully fatigued. With the exception of the intervals whiels I have mentioned, I was in durance from half-past tell 00 Sunday night till half-past six on Monday morning."

Edward Frost, uncle of John, has been admitted to bail; the evidence against hips being very slight.

Attempts were made to tamper with the soldiers; and two privates of the Forty-fifth Regiment did desert. One of them, however, re- turned to his ditty, and joined in the defence of Westgate Inn. This man, John Clark, confirmed evidence given by another soldier, 17:award Dalton, of the solicitations by Chartists to induce them to desert. The Chartists made anxious inquiries as to whether the soldiers would fire upon them.
