      LEEDS . Licensed ViCTtJALLEKS . — -On Wednesday last a person nsmed Richard Proctor , who keeps the Eose and Crown Inn , at the Sank , was charged before the magistrates with allowing persons to gamhle in his house at one o ' clock on Saturday morning . Two watchmen stated that passing the house ahout that time , they heard a noise , and on going into the-house they found several men surrounding a table , -playiag with a box and dice . One person was in the act of throwing the dice when the watchmen went into'the room , and there were two shillings l ying on the table . Three or four persons swore that the landlord had been in another part of

      the house from nije o clock the preceding evening , and that he knew nothing of what was transpiring in the room when the gambling was going on . He was discharged with scarcely an admonition . A fewweeks ago a poor man named Reid , a beer house keeper was fined forty shillings and costs , because two lads were showing trick to each other with a pack of cards , in his house , unknown to him , about seven o ' clock in the evening . By that conviction Held was liable to loose his licence , and for any thing we know , may have lost it . Mark the

      difference in the two cases . In Procter ' s house there was gambling , in Heid ' s iliere was not . ' ¦ The gambling in Procter's house was at one o ' clock in the morning , the cards were in Keid ' s house , at seven o ' clock in the evening . Procter was enjoying company—Reid was attending to his business—his wife being ill in bed ; but Procter had a licence to sell spirits , and Beid has not . Procter therefore escaped * without a remonstrance , —Eeid was fined forty shillings asd costs . But we must not suppose there was any thing unjust or impartial in this decision II

      Leeds Cloth MARKETS ^ -In the Coloured and Whit « Cloth Halls , on Saturday , there was a fair average market , considering the season of the year .

In the w arehouses , the individuals engaged are fully employed . i Leeds Corn Market , Januar y 16 . -We have short supplies of all Graitt this morning , in consequence of the communication in the canals being suspended . The transactions are therefore limited to the immediate wants of the millers in the

      neighbourhood . Wheat is held firmly at Is : tq 2 s . per quarter more money ; and Barley must be quoted Is . to 2 s . dearer , on the sales made . Oats and Beans are without alteration in value , and the demand limited . Leeq 3 Fortnight Fair , January 17 . ^—There was a limited supply of Horned Cattle , but an extra show of Sheep .

' '¦•'¦¦ ¦ " Bradford Wool Market , Jan . 18 th .- —Ths low stocks , the advance in foreign Wools of from 3 d . to 6 d . per lb , at the sales in Londonjon Tuesday last , the stoppage of conveyance by the frost , and the briskness of the demand for the manufactured article , all tend to higher prices . The demand is nc ] t in the least slaceened . ' Bradford Yarn Market , Jan . 18 th . —An upward tendency in prices and a good demand , although we cannot quote au actual advance .

      Bradford Piece Market , Jan . 18 th . — Many Rales have been effected at a small advance , though some prefer waiting for higher prices . There has not been obtained as yet advances equivalent to the rise in Yarns . The market has on the whole been a fair one . , Dewsbury Cloth Market , Jan . 15 th . — This day ' s market has been attended by only two buyers , who bought nothing but a small quantity of Blankets . Not a single yard of Padding , Drngget , Flushings , and coaTse Cloth were' isold , and this has been the case in the piece line for a great many markets back .

In Wools , we cannot quote any variation either in the demand or price since our last . The woollen waste market is to-day very lively , the demand is good and prices consequently as good as have been for some time .

      —^—— . . [ The following- letter from Edinburgh , containing the sentence on the Glasgow Cotton Spinners , we published as a supplement to our Leeds Edition of last week . "We give it here that all our readers may see it . John Fraser , the writer , jis' one of the most talented and consistent . patriots . ofjfhe present day—beloved by his own party , and respected by all . We shall give the whole of the Trial in successive Numbers of the " Slav , " so that our readers may be enabled tn judgs of the * ' evidence" adduced against the prisoners . ]

      VERDICT OF THE JtTE-V . Sentence of the Prisoners—Seven Years Transportation . Dear Sir , —The damning deed is done—seven years banishment to all the five . Trie Lord Justice summed up the exculpatory evidence and ended hii charge at about 3 o ' clock , p . m . I must say he was very mild , and did not manifest any strong leaning , if any at all , against the prisoners . . He stated to the Jury that the charge of writing criminal letters ascribed to M'Neil , was not proved , and that the charge of murder against one and all was equally unsubstantiated . Then he gave

      the evidence for the conspiracy , alluding to the intimidating acts committed during last strike . In charging the Jury on these points he gave no opinion as to either the guilt or innocence of the prisoners . The Jury , so far as the summing up : is concerned , could have Teturned a verdict for . the prisoners . They deliberated nve' -ipHrs- ^ r-in they came with a verdict of guilty , by . a mnjority on the first , second , third , and . tenth counts . — The majoritj- was only ONE ! Mark that ! The court suddenly recorded the verdict , before the counsel for the defence had time to sum up the counts in the indictment . Duncan M'Neil then stated to

      the court there was a gross inconsistency in finding them guilty of count tenth , and unanimously finding them innocent on all the others , especially ^ count fifth , in which the same charges were libelled as in count tenth . The Solicitor General replied and denied the inconsistency . Patrick Robertson then replied , but the Court attempted to put him down . He demanded a bearing and nobly and successfully answered the Solicitor , and the ^ court was compelled to throw out count tenth . So much for the stupidity of the Jury—so much for the outrage of justice in making such a long and complex indictment . The tenth count , charged with fire-raising ,

      housebreaking , &e . But for the successful effort of the Counsel , this count would havej BANISHED THEM for life j ! Now , the three counts on which they are convicted are , conspiracy- to keep up wages- — that ' s no fault j next , appointing guards—that's no fault ; with instructions to ^^ use , violence against the Nobs only . Only one . Crown infamous witness swears to this ; ten or fifteen witnesses for the defence swear-the jeverae » y Moreover not one guard isprored to have , used violence , > pot one of them apprehended . Again , they ace charged with engaging Mr . Gemmell , their agent , to

      insinuate to the Sheriff , that if he- would stop sentence on certain men , not guards / who were , convicted of intimidating others , they , the committee , would withdraw the guards from th $ mill *; There you see , the frightful . catalogue of charges now dwindled into trifles , arid trifles too . without proof ! Oh , my heart bleeds for the ppoir men ; I saw some of the minority in the Jury hang their heads with shame . They have so . far triumphed by saving their lives : and saving them from a life-time banishment ; and I cannot doubt that the power of public opinion , and of change *

M'Neil said j one particle of evidence to support it .

I could almost say of ; one rack-brained fool , who , by ; his bustling manner , teemed anxious to . attract the favour and notice of

      the court , ; execration will attend him and then . How crucified they looked to see a portion « f their own verdict thrown . aside . Yours faithfully , : J ^ FRASER , Edinburgh .

      by the police , not for any offence except composing a part of the crowd ; and that one of them was summarily brought before the Sheriff and convicted of what he nev « r : before kriew tobea brsach of the I aw;—tKat the Cotton Spinners' Society resolved j at the request of their Agent , to use their influence with their own body to prevent their members from joining ini such assemblages in future . Yes , Dear Sir , this is all the Jury , after eightdays attentive investigation , a period unparalleled in the history of criminal jurisprudence in this or perhaps any other country , ) could find against us : and , what we think worthy of remark ^ no witness or any one else

      attempted to say that any of us were near these places where the disturbances occurred ; in fact sorne of us were not in the Kingdom at the time I ! So you may . eee , Sir , that , our offence consists in our being : Members of the Spinneris' CJommittee ; an offence if it be one , that we have hot at any time attempted to deny . As to the evidence upon which even" these things were established , such as papers found iii a . chest of drawers , in some part of our hpuse , ^—where no chest of drawer * ever was ;—or 20 or 30 new hands being taken in at Oak Bank , where only 11 could possibly be admitted , and only 13 ever could be admitted at any time;—and a thousand other absurdities which came out in

      evidencfe against us ;— -on all these , it is notour intention to cprnment . Nor do we wish to say anything about the . secret that happened to slip out in the heat of an eloquent address to the Jury by a great personage ^ . — ' ¦ That the conspiracy of which it was alleged we formed a part ^ was less formidable , than the Conspiracy AGAINST us , " or words to that eifect . We shall not at present comment on these things , but leave them to the public . Our object in addressing you at present , ; is solely for the purpose of expressing our unfeigned and heart -felt gratitude to you , sir , to the committee 6 f which you have the honour to be chairman , and to the working classes generally , for their promptitude and liheraliry in coming forward with pecuuiary aid to afford us the means of defence , and save our

      familieKfrom starvation , which must have been their fate , but for the sympathy of a generous public . It would be injustice to withhold from the Trades ' Committee of Edinburgh ^ the meu ' d of praise and gratitude due to them f « r the kind and unwearied uttention paid to us during our confinement here . Nor can we forget those patriotic friends of freedom and justice , O'Connor j Beaumont , Stephens , Oastler , Taylor , and many other philanthropic spirit ? who rnade . 'our wrongsring . from pole to pole , and roused the working classes from thur lethargy , by showing them that the blow aimed at us , was equally aimed at themgelves , of the truth of which we have no doubtj they will soon pet convincing ; proof . We cannot withold our gratitude from the many disinterested friends who came forward with their

      irute to proc'iye for . us justice , and a fair trial . When these see what has been our fate by only ONE of a MAJORiTy of A jury finding us guilty of the crimes above enumerated , while that Juryman unariimonsly cleared us of the many false charges brought against us , they can be at no loss to know what would have been our fate had we been left without themeans of defence . For pur own part we have no hesitation in saj'ing r that our earthly career , would have' terminated oh a disgraceful gallows . How far we are deserving such a fate , as we have said before , -we leave the public to judge . In conclusioh , Sir , we beg leave to tender our sincere thanks to our Agents , particularly Mr . Gemmel , for bis able , efficient , and indefatigabte exertions in our cause ; indeed had he been a brother he could

      not have done more for us . As for our counsel , they are tod ijvell known to the public to require any euolgiurn from ns . Their assiduity and attention during the whole trial , ' we belieyeV ^ uhrivalied in the "history df ¦ ' this country . The legal and literary talent displayed . by Messrs . M'Neil and Robertson is ' also without a parallel in ,: the annals of pleading , at least that we ever heard , orread of . Where nbw ^ we ask are the conspiracies to burn millsy warehouses ^ 8 sc ., ' - '&c . and ; to eommit MjURDER . y with which we were 36 : ¦ unsparingly charged , frsm the day of our apprehension to the day of ^ our trial ? They are where they ought TQBEj / ihaiiks to an enlightened and discerning Jnryl ! . ' ) thrown back izi the face of their cruel and unprincipled fabricators . ;

      j Accept then , Sir , in the names of ; those ; friends of freedomy we have enumerated the unqualified thanks of your ever faithful arid disconsolate friends / When we are dragging the felons chains , and perhaps writhing under the ; lash of our task masters , while , the tears of our wives , pur dear little ones , and numerous relatives , water the streets of our native city—you can reclihe on yOur pillpw with the consoling reflection that you have done your ; duty to prevent these arid eveii worse consequences than these from overtaking us > As it is more than probable that all or any of us will have nb opportunity of seeing you before ouir departure , with oiir best wishes for t your welfare , adieu , sir , adieu J : V ; ¦' ¦ ¦ . - ¦ : - ( Signed ); . : , ;; - ¦¦ , - ¦ : ¦ .: - , ; . ; ¦ h : ; THOMAS HtJNTER .

As to that being a charge against it , it was , on the contrary , the highest prai ' . e ; arid ; that House should ; rather be preparied to increase that power , and to remove the Council whichihad tended , to thwart . - .-ail the best interests of of the Canadians . —( Hear , hearj and cheers . ) - — The Noble Lord had rfcferred to the instructions of $ ir GeorgeMurray- ^ they certainly had ^ been liberal , but had they been acted on ? The people themselves , and those who were on the spot , and who were best informed , said they were hot . . The colony could not be well / governed at such a distance

      from this country , if such men were given the power to do so as the Council arid the Gpvernbrs , who not only did not . respect the civil rights of the people , but who were anxious for the good of a few . ( Hear . ) In 1828 , 87 , 000 persons had petitioned that House—that petition was signed by nineteentyventieths of the landed- proprietors of : Low . er Canada , and an overwhelming proportion of those interested in the co \ pny . This stated that there was only one individual having an interest in -the colony , who was a member of the Lekislatiye

      Council , all others were Englishmen , most of whom had no interest in thesoil , and had no interest saye to promote that of the persons having places about them . The petitioni also stated that of 340 persiohs holding public situations ; only forty were Canadians . These matters were the origin of the evil ; but could there be any thing more extraordinary than thi *? England was anxious to he Relieved from the expense of its colonies , but . the House of ¦ Assembly had said that they would relieve Great Britain from" this expense as regarded Lower Canada ; and would it be believed that this was considered an offence ^ at

      the Colonial Office , and by the Governor ?—( Hear . ) The people of England were taxed to support the places in Canada , and not the Canadians . ¦ And these taxes were thu 3 applied to maintain . ; that system of corruption which led to the dissatisfaotion which existed in Canada . r —( Hear , heary hear . ) --Did the Koble Lord mean to say that the Assembly had not the same right to annex conditions to the supplies granted by them that were possessed by the Commons ? All the refusals of grants had resulted from npn-coihpliance with such ¦ ' ( conditions . One regulation was , that no clerk of the Assembly should be at the same ; time a member of the Council ; 'if he were , the salary was not payable . The like was

      the case with the speakership : of the Assembly . The salary was £ 900 , on condition of not homing any Other situation . Had not the Commons cpn ^ . stantly annexed such conditions to grants voted by themP Again , ^ salaries were voted . to Masters ^ in Chancery , also on condition of their holding no office . The Noble Lord had said that the judges vrere unpaid . The fact was not so . Their salaries had been voted , and were payable , provided they . had no other offices of profit . Therefore , to vote any proceeding on any such allegations would beunjuwt --to declare that the supplies had not been voted was not correct—they Were voted , and if notpaid it was only because the conditions had not been com- ;

      plied with . < . The Noble Lord bad referred to reponts and resolution ?; but had their recommendations been carried out ? On the contrary , had they riot been delayed , and for years ? The Noble Lord had referred to Lord Aberdeen ' s minute . He wished tney had acted upon that minute . The Noble Lord said that many of the grievances had been redressed ; especially referring to the Jesuits , the accbiintabiu ' ty and responsibility of the judges . Now ; there was the whole question in dispute . Were ; the jn&g . 6 s responsible now ? The Noble Lord bad got over ten years very rapidly . Redress was then prptuisedj ' . butr none could be afforded until October last ,, thooghpromised ten years before . And wbiit were the

      -redresses then afforded . ? Ten Members were ; added to the Legislative , and three to the Executive Cooncii . That was the whole of the Reform ; but was that enough ? The alteratipriSj so far from . giving satisfaction ^ were much coinplained of ; it was d . eclared that the Executive Council was now worse than it was before . But as the complaints having been readily redressed , he had already shown how far that wns ' true . The little thathad been done in October , 1837 , had been proinised in 1828 . They , had certainly proffered conciKatpry measures * Oh , yei , there were promises eripuglt- —theve had been words enough . —( Hear , hear . ) There had beeh instructions forwarded to Lord Gbsford to redtess grievances , but where the good of theinstructidiis-if

      no redress followed ? The words were there * tut words were not enough . A letter had been forward ? ed with the resolutions which had been sanctfcmed b y both Houses of Parliament . ( Hear , hear . ) ! l'hose resolutions were propounded at differetit meetings through the Canadas , and they were condemned as revolutionary , and well they might be , for such they were ; he uad never known any thing of so reckless a character as those , resolutions . ( Hear , bear . ) They told the Canadians that the Governnient was going to do various things : yes , the Government had been " going to do " --it vras always " going to do" —there was never any thing doiie . ' As to the proclamation of the Governor , wh . v it had

      been treated as was Lord Grey's . proclamation against Political Unions ^—it was torn to pieces . Lord Gosford ' s proclamation Was not law—proclamations were not now Jaw , whatever they might have been J and yjet , because Lord Gosford s ; proclfimation ^ ras so torn , two persons were to be proceeded against for that ait . Trhen Lord Gosfprd wias told ( w tliirik the Hoii . Member said ) , by the Attorney-General , after a bill had been tlirowu out , preferred against the two iiien , that so long as tlie present magistracy continued—there wpula be such disappbintmerits—the magistracy was too liberal ; Well , what did Lord Gosford do , but he . actually struck put the names of those who were deemed top liberal , and inserted in their stead nothing bat Tories and Orangemen . ( Cheers and laughter . ) In fact such men ; were selected as could be relied npon . The system of packing juriesi was adopted—a partichlar

      object w as to be accomplished , and that was to be done by ^ electing / fit men ; for the purpose . Every liberal name was struck out and for euch purpose . Haying got a magistracy that would do ^ there were arrested twenty-eight individuals . The people became alarmed . , All , however ^ was done so ; secretly that no one knew what was proceeding ; bnt when such events were QbservedjSJI became aianned and hence those proceedings of which tlieNoble Lord complained , and which were the foundation of the measures now propounded . But did the Noble Lord mean to say that the AssemtJly had any thing to do with : those proceedings ? If riot , why suspend it ? He would not put a case * Suppose any similar e-vent' ? had taken place in Ireland , snch , as striking out every magistrate viewed as a liberal man , and

      that they then proceeded to arrest Mr . O'Connell and twenty-seyenotker persons . Did they think that would be # . good mode of promoting tranquillity and advancing the / redress of ^ ie vances ? On the contrary , would it not be very likely to ian $ e some , disturbances , especially after complaints upon complaints ; nad gone on increasing , ( Heaj . ) Similar to such , a cate wai the conduct pursued , in . Canada j and was it not too much on the part of the Noble Lord , after the evils of which Canada complained Were more and moire aggravated , to propose to susir pend some of the most important righta of the country for the conduct of a few individuals ? Tiien the Noble Lord talked -about supporting ; tlie dignity of the Crown * ; He was fqr supporting the throne , j but ne thought the throne could only be supported by / justice , and not by injustice .

      NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL MARKETS , ( Moxday . From all those quarter * whence the supplies of slaughtered meat are -Qsnall y consigned to these markets , we hare received , siiice this day se'nnight , a somewhat nlccrcased—at least compared with that which arrived hith ? r in the " course of the pnxirding week—quantity of allkinds of meat ; however , it has Been quite as hirge as has been required ; indeed , we are firmly of opinion , had it been much bins , that it would have been far nioTe profitable to the congigaera than it has proved to b-. Most pf the arrivals have come eo hand in a very excellent condition , whilst the geT . eral qualitv of them has been muchprimpr than for some time past . The finest Beef , Mutton , Veal , and Pork , have commanded a steady , the middling and inferior kinds a dull sale , and but little variation hug taken place in the currencies noted on Monday last . " We have received several letters from pewons in Scotland , who have of late transmitted hither large qnantitigg of both Beef and Mutton , which intimate that , vn many instances , they have been considerable losers by their speculations .
