HpHE PATENTEES have given the above name to a L Sal: of British manufacture, ( to distinguish it from Stoved, Common, British Bay, Patent, or Fishery,) which will be found upon trial, to be eoual, if not superior to the best Foreign Salt, possessing in a pre- eminent degree its es- sential property, of durability and firmness of grain in pickle, and between layers of Provision, or Fish, and containing more REAL SALT in a given weight. The Manufacture of " SOLID SALT" being fusion by heat only, without the intervention of either Brine or Water, renders it not ouly free from any adhering moisture, but also from the quantity of water forming a constituent part of every other variety of Salt, British or Foreign, amounting together frequently to 10 per Cent. The SOLID SALT is recommended therefore in the fullest confidence of its giving the utmost satisfaction in every department of the Provision Trade, and owing to its peculiar characteristic solidity, particularly for packing, not only meat of all kinds, but Fish also The PATENTEES have also to observe that by their pro- cess they can manufacture the SOLID SALT of any desired size of grain; small for the first operation of striking or salt- ing, or large grained for packing. The SOLID SALT has been made use of by many of the most eminent practical men in the Provision Trade, as well as those in the Fishery; in all cases giving the greatest sa- tisfaction. It has also, by order of the Honourable the Com- missioners of the Victualling Board, been subjected to ex- periment at Deptford, where a most decided preference has been given to it. With the most perfeCt conviction of its superiority and value, the Patentees feel assured that it only requires to be known, t. be universally made use of. Messrs J. and T. MARSHALL, & CO. of Northwich, the only manufac- turers of the SOLID SALT, have appointed Messrs. WHITEHOUSF & GALAN, of Liverpool, Agents for the sale of it, to whom any orders and communications are re- quested to be addressed. The price is Forty Shilings per ton, of Forty Bushels. A Specimen of the Salt may be seen, on application to Messrs. WM SEED and ROBT. BAILIE, of Belfast, and Messrs. JOHN and HENRY QUIN, Newry; which the Patentees earnestly solicit the Houses in the Provision Trade to inspeCt, being confident, it will be found to possess every equisite to insure the general use of it.

Application to be made to W. B. JOY, 39, Waring- street ( 121 THE SUBSCRIBERS to the " NEWRY COMMER- CIAL TELEGRAPH" are respeCtfu ly informed, that the arrangements for Publishing that NEWSPAPER, are in such forwardness, that the Editor will be enabled to Print the first Number on WEDNESDAY, the 18th day of NOVEMBER next. Previous to the commencement of their periodical labotirs, the Proprietors deem it expedient to submit to the Public, a candid explanation of their Principles and Plan,— Aloof from the various parties that agitate the State, they will be calm, though not indifferent spectators and recorders of each passing event. Through the maze of politics, and the tem- pest of jarring factions, Impartiality shall be their guide, and ! Truth their polar star. The pages of the TELEGRAPH shall never be contaminated by the vindictive effusions of personal malice, nor the wild ravings of inveterate prejudice. By the standard of unity alone, shall every aCt of every party be esti- mated. Regardless of the sources whence public measures may emanate, they will speak of those measures as they may be in themselves advantageous or injurious to the Empire, and by their intrinsic worth alone, will they appreciate their im- r portance. Whatever tends to draw more closely the links j of social affeCtion and harmonize the passions, shall find ready admittance into the Columns of the TELEGRAPH The Proprietors, therefore, invite every philanthropist, every lover of the art*, and favourite of the muses, to honor them with their lucubrations;— for they know, that the ge- nerous and feeling mind, will often turn away with disgust, from the contemplation of war, devastation, and blood, to the rural scenes of agriculture, the fairy haunts of poesy, or the delightful fields of science ; as the weary eye, pained by the blaze of the meridian sun, looks for relief amidst glades of mingled light and shade, or peaceful groves of green. Tbey admire the principles of the British Constitution, and are determined to give them their loyal and firm sup- port. Under the influence of these principles, and still more deeply impressed with that noble and peculiar tenet of Christianity—" I) o unto alt men ai you would they should do unto you;" they think, the same religious liberty ought to be conceded to others, which they themselves possess. Never- theless, tbey are not so tenacious of their own opinions, as to preclude from their c ® lumns, calm and temperate discus- sions on Catholic Emancipation, or on any other subj< a con- neded with the politics of the British Ides; and on all such matters, they will uniformly preserve the stri& ist impar. tiality. Diffident of his talents, yet strong in the purity of his motives', the Editor looks with some confidence to a gener- ous Public, for that success, which he will use every possible effort to merit. The difficulties he has to encounter, in this new undertaking, are obvious: yet, to counterbalance these, h' possesses many important advantages — The situation of NEWRY is central; its mercantile connexions widely extend- ed ; its inhabitants liberal, spirited, and fond of information. A direa and regular communication is now established be- tween rhis place and Great Britain, by which he will be enabled frequently to anticipate the Dublin conveyance ; and as the Northern Mail passes through NEWRT, he will have many hours advantage, in point of priority of time, over many other similar Publications. Add to this, that the P- o- prietors have made most extensive connexions in LONDON, and will derive their information from the fountain head.— In a word, a better abstraa and recapitulation of the inten- tions of the Proprietors of the TELEGRAPH cannot be g'ven, than in the following quotation from their ProspeCtus, which has already been submitted t » the Public : " Disavowing all party broils, or ephemeral starts of in- furiate and indiscriminate ^ censure, this Paper shall be ever open to free discussion, on all subje& s, provided the sacred boundaries of candour and moderation be preserved invio- late.— Useful traas, of every description, shall meet the most cordial attention. Public Occurrences— Parliamentary Debates— Foreign and Domestic Intelligence, shall be select- ed and arranged with care. The Agriculture, Trade, and Manufaaures of the North— the Markets of Ireland sha'l be minutely stated. The Newry Shipping List— the arrival and departure of the Packets shall be regularly attended to. Original Essays— Moral or Literary Produaions— and all other favours of Correspondents, shall be thankfully re- ceived," Stc. AGENTS are appointed for the Paper, in almost every principal Town in Ireland. All Orders relat; ve to the TELEGRAPH, addressed to Mr. ROBERT MOLLAN, TELEGRAPH - OFFICE, corner of MARGARET- SQUARE, NEWRY, shall be respea- fully attended to. The price of the Paper, in any part of the United King- dom ( out of Newry), if paid in advance, £ 2, 5s. 6J. per an- num. If not in advance, £' 2, 10j — Postage free. To be published every IVednesday and Saturday. 236) NEWRY, Oaober 30, 1812. RATES OF TRESPASS.

The Court do, therefore, • unanimously ami honourably acquit the said Contain Dacres, the Officers, uud crew of his M. ij sty's late ship La Guerriere ; * and they are hereby honourably acquitted accordingly.— The Court, at the same time, feel themselves called upon to express the high sense they entertain of the conduct of the ship's company in general, when prisoners, but more particularly ot those who withstood the attempts made to shake their loyalty, by offering them high bribes to enter int;> the land and sea services of the enemy, and they will re- present their rr> erit to the Commander in Chief." His Majesty's ship Barbadoes, of 28 guns, Cip- tain Huskisson, sailed from Bermuda on the 15th ult. with three vessels under convoy, for St. John's, Newfoundland-. About 10 P. M. on Sunday tin? 27th ult. the wind blowing hard, witha heavy sea and hazy weather, the ship struck on the N. W. bar of Sable Island, and, notwithstanding every exertion, was lost. Two of the convoy, the schooner Emeline, with a cargo of sugar ; and the sloop Swift, with rum, went to pieces. The Captain, Officers, ami crew of the frigate, with the exception of one nr in, and also those of the merchant vessels, were fortunate- ly saved ; as was also the cargo of the Swift, and part of the provisions, & c. of his Majesty's ship. HALIFAX, OCTOBER 2 We are informed thar on Thursday afternoon, a flag of truce arrived direct from Washington, with dispatches for his Excellency the Governor- General, who is absent on a tour through the district. The contents have not transpired. A letter, dated New- York, Sept. 10, says— " The Member of the Cabinet, who is now in this State, declares, that it matters not what may be the propositions of peace which Admiral Warren may bring out; the war will be continued till Canada is conquered ! This you may rely on ; and you may also be assured, that while the French Minister remains in the United States, the present Administration will not make peace." The greatest activity prevails in the War De- partment, in sending troops from all fj'ianers to reinforce the army on the Canadian frontier.— The Kentucky quota alone, under General Har- rison ( who succeeds General Hull), is estimated at upwards of 5,000 men. No new action of any consequence had taken place. BOSTON, OCT. 2.— It had been always said that our army would be in Quebec before Januaiy. Our Administration are better than their words. The ar1. vanced- guard, under their favourite General, Go- vernor Hull, arrived there in September. Sure no man can accuse our Government of " dc manquer a la parole." Our Government were rijjht in not agreeing to the armistice proposed by General Pre- vost. If they had, how could they have fulfilled their promise of reaching Quebec this season ? But, as it is now wisely ordained to pursue the war, after the only cause of it, the British Orders, are removed, we have no doubt that Gen. Dearborn ( if lie advances) will redeem the pledge of Govei nment of marching to Quebec. NEW YORK, SEPT. 29.— A letter from Albany states, that Gen. Hull arrived at the head- quarters of Gen. Dearborn on Tuesday morning, and in the af- ternoon, accompanied by his brother- in- law, Judge Masters, called on the Governor. The Emperor Napoleon could not hav attracted more attention. By the late accounts from Gen. Harrison's army, it appears that 3000 troops were at St. Miry's on the 8th inst. which is 55 miles from Fort Wayne. Ken- tucky traops were passing through Cincinatti, for the army, as late as the 15th inst.— A Council with the Indians at Pique had been concluded, and there was reason to believe that the Indians who attended the Council will be friendly. The Report of the capture of Fort W. iyne by the Tippicanoe Indians is confirmed. The Bri- tish had only a guard of 50 men at Detroit, and the Indians belonging to Upper Canada had re- turned thither. In consequence of the fears of a negro Insur- rection, and of the war, General Wilkinson, at New Orleans, has called for 2000 militia. UPPER CANADA. MONTREAL, SEPT. 7.— After the surrender of Gen. Hull, Gen Brock called the American militia together, and told them, that he could now Send them to such a distance that they would not return to their homes dnring the war ; and, perhaps, might never see them again ; but that he wished to give them a proof of English generosity, and that they had his leave to go, and return each to his own home; and he had only to request them to tell their neighbours how they had been treated fcy the English dogs.— It is said that many of the militia, from various impulses, shed teais at hearing this address. LANSBURGH, SEPT. 21.— A Gentleman who re- cently left Montreal informs us, that a few t'. iys be- fore he left there, Gen. Prevost issued a General Order, forbidding the troops of either province from crossing the Line ; but at the same time assuring them, that he should dispute every inch of ground should the provinces be invaded by the United States. The British, in the adjacent territory, are preparing every means of deft nee by obstructing the road with timber and fallen trees ; by placing booms across the channels of the lake, and constructing batteries co command them. They appear to apprehend that an invasion is uow intended, and ,: re dst. riaiueil toon^ t no means calculated to repel it. " JIT) ESPECTFULI.

FA LI. OF FORT DE ARBORN, AT CHICADG A. BUFFALO, SEPT. 15 Yesterday afternoon, the Queen Charlotte arrived at Fort Erie, in ? days from Detroit. A flag of truce soon landed, at Buffalo Crt k, Major Atwater, and Lieutenant J. L. Eastman, who gave the following account of the fall of Fort Dearborn :— Oti the 1st of Sep. tember, a Pottawattamie Chief arrived at Detroit, and sta ed, that about the middle of August, Cap- tain Wells, from Fort Wayne ( an interpreter), ar- rived at Fort Dearborn, to advise the Commandant of th « Fort to evacuate it, and retreat. In the mean time a large body of Indians, of different na- tion?, had collefted and menaced the garrison.— A Council was held with the In ians, - In which the Indians agreed that the garrison should be spared, on condition that ail. property in the fort should be delivered up. The Americans marched out, but were tired uoon, and all nearly killed.— There were about fifty men in the fort, besides women and children, and probably not more than ten or twelve taken prisoners. Cap'aia Wells, and Captain Heald, ( the Commandant) were killed. blesiin- 1 s attached to if, no part of the Ameri'- an people bad a more meritorious share than the peo. pie of New Jersey. From none^ th- efore, may more reaso ably be expefled a patriotic 7. eal in maintaining by ' be sword the unquestionable and inalienable righ's acquired bv it, -> n I which it- is found can no otherwise be mainta'ned.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM MIDDLEBURV, DATED | SEPTEMBER 21. " I have this moment seen a Proclamation of Governor Prevost, of Sept. 19th, by which all citizens of the United States are Ordered to quit Canada by the 15rh October— till vrhich time they may depart with their moveable property, by permission of three of the Council. After that time every citizen of the United States found in Canada will be considered as a prisoner of war, unless he has taken the oath of allegiance." " ALBANY, SEPT. 24. " A fine body of jolly tars, about 100, passed through this city on Tuesday last for the lakes.— They are part of the crew of the John Adams frigate, which has lately been taken out of service, and converted into a prison ship. They were, in waggons, with a flag hoisted in each— appeared in high spirits, a^ d repeatedly cheered the citizens with their loud huzzas as they passed through our principal streets." NEW- YORK, SEPT. 29. ADMIRAL WARREN ON OUR COAST.— It appears from an article under our marine bead, that a squa- dron of seven ships, three of them two- deckers, and supposed to be Admiral. Warren's from Eng- land", were seen the 21st irist. about 100 miles from the Vineyard. It was. last evening reported, that Governor Har- rison had gained an advantage over the Indians.— There was also a rumour that the Americans had j njet with some disaster at Niagara. ASSWER or THE PRESIDE FT TO THE STATE or ! - •• - • NEW JERSEY. " SIR— I have received the Address from the Convention of the Republican Delegates from the several counties, & c. ..... " When the United States assumed and estab- li, hed their rank among the nations of the earth, they • assumed and established a. common sove- reigi on the high seas, as well as the exclusive sovereignty within their territorial limits. The one is. as essential as the other to their e'hara< 3er as an independent nation. However conceding they may have been of controvertible points, or forbearing und? r casual, or limited- injuries, they never can submit. to wrongs jtieparablp in. their kind, enormous in riwjir amow- nA, and indefinite in jhei'r duration < aatfwiiich- are. aVowcd unci 0n principles degrading the United Stales from the rank of a Sovertign and Independen Power. In attaining this high rank, and lb* inestimable Mr. Johnson, the Messenger, is arrived with dis. patches from America. The contents of ther. i have not ti-* Bsptred, but we understand that they are by no means of a pacific nature. We wait with great anxiety for the next ac- counts both from Russia and France. The ex- pe< iation of an immediate battle was genera in the Russitn Army when the last accounts were dispatched. There was this mornm? a report of another French Bulletin, giving the details of a battle— but we have not seen any such Bulletin ourselves, nor heard of any one that has.— Courier. Both in the German papers and in some private letters from France it is men ione. l th- it Bonaparte had it in contemplation to remove from Moscow. We have seen a letter of the 7' h inst. fr^ m R; ga, which states, that out of 600 Prussian pri- soners, who had been taken on'various occasions, 200 had volunteered to serve in the German Le- gion in British pay. The remainder wt're desir- ous of following their example, but regard for their friends on the Continent determined them rather to continue prisoners of war. Upwards of 1000 Spaniards had deserted from the F ench ar- mies. They were all on their way to Revel, wher^ they were to embatk for their own country, to join their brethren in arms. We have to- day had transmitted to us letters written by an officer of high rank at Kingston, our head- quarters in Upper Canada, and they are dated as late as the 1th ult. The army in that situation is very much disappointed at the inter- ruption given by the armistice, as by this arrange, ment the- opportunity might be lost of taking a great quantity of stores and oiher properly be- longing to the Americans. The truce was to terminate in four days after the date of the letters, and at the expiration of that time the troops were to proce » d against Niagira, where no doubt was entertained of their success. General Prevost was watching the motions of General Dearborn, near Albany, not with 15,000 men, as was stated, bnt probably with half that number, which force was held jo be quite suffi- cient to meet, and to destroy the irregular multi- tude under the Native Commander. The following letter from New Orleans, dated Aug. 14, contains a repetition of the report of the loss of the Southampton frigate, at the mouth of the Mississippi. We still trust that it will turn out to be unfounded. " All is bustle here in the military way. Since the morning a report has reached town that the British have taken possession of our block- house at Fort St. Philip, near the mouth of this river. The Southampton frigate was cast away at the Balize, and the Brazen sloop of war weathered the storm on the I8th instant ; and it is believed with their boats they have taken the above- men- tioned positions, which were rendered entirely de- fenceless by the hurricane. It would be impos- sible to give you a just description of the dread- ful havoc and melancholy as; » eft of this ill- fated city. The hurricane far surpassed any thing of the kind ever witnessed heretofore, for violence and consequent deslrudion of property. Every house in the city is more. or less injured— many were dashed to atoms j hundreds of lives weie lost on the tiver, and out of sixty vessels, scarcely six are worth repairing." Private letters have arrived from Paris to the 24; h, yet they are silent as to affairs carrying on at Moscow and its vicinity, but inform us of » cir. cumstance, which, if true, is a singular one. It is stated in them, that the French capital had been thinned of its mechanics, who were directed to pro- ceed to Moscow, in order, as it expressed, to assist in rebuilding that city. No fewer than 2500 ma- sorts and carpenters are said to have set off during the course of last week. This is, as we said be- fore, a singular circumstance; and yet we may, perhaps, suggest the means of accounting for it. It cannot be the rebuilding of Moscow, which is intended at t^ is season of the year, but piobably only the ereflion of temporary accommodations for the soldiery daring the season : and though - other Generals might have found a sufficient num- ber of artizans among their own' troops for such a purpose, yet will a French army, whatever may be its other merits, supply but few men of that description. The persons of whom it is com- posed, have been universally forced from their homes, in early youth, by the conscription— War is therefore their trade, and they have , learned no - other. Their only science tends to the li destruflion, not the comfort, of mankind. The great bulk of British, and other European armies, consists of agriculturalists, carpenters, masons, weavers, shoemakers, and tailors, as recruits have been enlisted from each of those trades; and a Commanding Officer may supply the wants of his troops by persons of appropriate knowledge in his own ranks. A French officer can only find sol- | diets under his command, and must seek for me- | chanicS elsewhere. If Bonaparte, therefore has ! really been obliged to send for carpenteis and ma- ' sons from France, it affords a double proof,, both ! _ pl his intention to occupy Moscow during the win- ter, and of the'thorotfgti desertion of the natives ? of that city, whom he would otherwise press into his service.—( Times.) • || We nnde'stan 1 that the F-> rl af Moira h'" i positively refused the offer of the Lord Lieuten - ancy of Ireland, not'' king the renditions Globe.- 1; Tt is reported that His Roval HifhneSs the Prince 1 Refrpti*. is about to -- onf>' r some precious marks <> f j his fnvqur on the P'- emo- e of both countries ; it is j said tW the F. iri of T. ondoedfrrv i* ' o be raised-, to r the rlifrntty of Marquis,, and Lord Mountiov to' be - created F- irl. bv the title of K. irl of Blessington, Lord Dulerin to be n Viscount.— T) ub.

One fatal accident we have already heard of, and from the quantity of tiles, chirrrnev. p- ts, fee. blown down, we are apprehensive it will omve only a prelude to many others^ A lamp- lighter. named Burke, many years in the e » nr> loy of Mr. Patrick, of Newgate- srreet, who was light, ing the lamps on the east side of Blacker iars. bridge, was, by a sudden gust, blown into the river, in presence of his son. a chi'd of ten years o!'*, and before assKtan e could be procured, sunk to rise no n- ore! During the storm, nart of the roof of the elegant villa at Putney, inh'hited by Madame ' Cherv, was unroofed by- the wind. Several per. sons were enveloped in the ruins, and one person was not dug out until ye= terdav morning. We are happy to say that no lives were lost. In town several buildings sustained maierial damage j the neighbourhood of Downing- street was greatly alarmed and terrified from its influence on the ruinated and uninhabited remains of a house on the right hand, the bricks and.- tiles of which, were forced into the street, to the terror of the passen- gers, and the dread of the dwellings c^ tvtiguons to the desolated fabric. About seven o'clock, the large iron pipe affixed on the chimnev of Colonel Calvert's apartments in the front of the building in Whitehall, fortunately doing no injury.- Tuesday morning a Court- martiaL- assembled on board the Monmouth ( flag- ship) in the Downs, for the trial of Lieut.

During the afternoon a gale of wind came on, which caused the Presi- dent and Members of the Cn!> rt , t0 remain on hoard the Monmouth ; and so violent was the hur- ricane, that all communication with the shore was for a time suspended.

" It appeared, that in the prisoner's first letter, he urged distress, and no answer having been obtained, he threatened re- venge by shooting the lady. His lasts letter was noticed, and a paper purporting to be a cheque for one hundred pounds, was inclosed in a let ter, addressed to the prisoner, at a coffee- house in the- ci'y. The cheque remained several days at the coffeehouse, where an officer was in'attendance before the prisoner fetched ir, and'on his doing so, he was taken into custody, in the afl of- presenting it at the banking- house. The prisoner having been brought up, Mr. Wellesley sent a letter to the sitting magistrate, declining further to pro. secute, as it would affefl the prisoner's life, but requested that he might " receive a sivere repri- manu, which was done, and h e wasdischarged.

" MADRID, SEPT. 23.— We have in Madrid and its vicinity, the 3d, 8th, and light divisions, under Gen. Alten ; but it is understood General Hill is moving in that direction, and will take the chief command until the Marquis Wellington returns, who is still at Burgos with the 1st, 5th, 6th, and 7th divisions, arid the lieavycavalry and artillery. It is reported that the Castle of Burgos is much stronger than it was supposed, and had not sur- rendered up to the date of the last accounts re- i ceived here, by which it appears we have had j some seyere fighting in taking some of the out- works, and have sustained " a considerable loss in the different attacks. It was thought here that the Marquis would put the Spaniards in posses- sion of it, and then return here with the division, to look after Marshal Soult, who, it is repotted, is marching to join Suchet and Joseph Bonaparte; ij ' we nevertheless expect to serve them as we did [' Marmont, if the rainy season should set in. I : must say every thing in this country looks well, ! and I shall not be surprised if there is not a j Frenchman on this side the Fbro in a few mofiths. j The Spaniards are now exerting themselves in ! raising men for an army in this capital. We! have experienced much hospitality since we have been here, and it has been a scene of great rejoic- ing and gaity. The Boston Papers stite, that all present aj p ehen- sion of an invasion of Canada had ceased. It w., s known at Washington that Sir J. B. Warren was ex pected out with full powers to negociate ; but the general impression seens to be, that his mission will p ove unsuccessful.. A letter from New York, of the 19th ult. says, " A Member of the Cabinet, who is now in this State, declares, that it matters not what may be the propositions of peace wliicb Admiral Warren may bring out, tke war will he. continued till Canada is conquered! This you may rely on ; and you may also be assjred, that, while the French Minister remains in the United States, the present Administration will not make peace." is probably nothing more than for the purpose 0' a. rranging:. an exchange of prisoners. Admiral Sir J. B. WARREN has arrived on the American coast, and, it is said, with powers to negociate and conclude a peace. The National Intelligencer mentions this circumstance in a slight- ing manner. The Captain, Officers, and Crew, of the Guer.- riere, have been honourably acquitted. No further intelligence has arrived from the seat of war in Russia, and much anxiety prevails for the rjext accounts from that quarter. A letter from Bnrbadoes, date? Sepfember' 20. says, " This island never saw so . disastrous a year as the present. The volcanic powder which fell on us on t!; e 1st of May, is supposed, in conjunr- tion with the long drought, to have generated swarms'of worms, which'haVe spread devastation over the. face of. the island.

We have not seen the sheep maiket so thro gc- d for many years— several lots were purchased out the greater number were drove off unsold— p ices on the decline. There was a fine shew of fat bullocks and cows; the graaiers did not obtain what the . x- pected, and it was considered the butcher did not pay more than 4\ d. or 5d. per pound. Springers, at this season, are in demand, ;. r. d the prices high— thirteen and fourteen guinea! were paid for rather an inferior description : bet- ter could be had last August at ten. Pigs were in gteat demand, and nearly double the price which was paid lasi October. We do not regret this rise, a* it is the best indication that the potatoe crop is abundant. There were few purchases made in the horse fair. • t At a meeting of the tobacco manufacturers of the city of Dublin, on the 3lst Oct. it was resold- eH that in consequence of the very great advance on leaf tiWeo, the price of roll be raised to 2s. 6.1 per lb.

GEXTLBMEH, You have heard that the ceremony of electing two Members, to serve yon in the Commons' H ™ <' of Parliament, has been gone through at Carrickfertnis, with quietness, regularity, and de- corum. And u hv nor ?— Immediately after the Candidates were publicly announced, it was fore, seen, there was but one opinion about it in the County; the point was settled in every one's rnind, as to WHO would be returned; and that it was only necessarv to collect a few friends of the parties— go through the ceremony— have a great dinner and drink toasts, to give a kind of eclat to the proceeding: here was no opposition- all was such hatmofy and concord, that if the Hindoos or Jappanese, understood the theory ot our elections, and had the manner of the one we are speaking of tianslated. to them it must appear, from inference, that the two Honorable Members so returned- had yotir entire, your cor. dial consent; that they, and they alone, were the objects of your free choice, even their most learn- ed Bramins could not expound the matter other, wise. But, Gentlemen, you know how the matter stands ( except, pethaps. some dark parts) ; you know all about it; and I dare say, like myself, mmy of you have attentively noticed hbw things went on relating to this election, from the disso- lution of Parliament to the termination of the ceremony— observed the Candidates visiting a number of landlords, for mere forms sake, whose interests thev were as indifferent about, as they appeared to be exalted above such a mean idea as to speak of, or to, such trumpery as free- holder1;— mere cattle at the disposal of the land, lord— creatures, who neither have, nor deserve, will or opinion of their own— beasts of burthen tjownright asses! ! ! Had it not been for this treatment, Gentlemen, it is hard to say, whether it is probable, that UPON CONDITIONS the very same Members would have been the objects of your choice, had you been asked ; but you had no opinion nor choice in ihe matter ; under the compact, it was not thought necessary you should s and indignant as you may feel for such insult and scandalous usurpation of your elective rights, designed you by the law and the constitution of your country, many of you, with apparent truth, may exclaim, where is the remedy ? what can we do ? Gentlemen, an abstract from the Edinburgh Review, which appeared lately in The Chronicle, X, think clearly points out a constitutional, legal, and efficacious rernedv ; namely, subscription.- Let the electors appoint a respectable committee to open a subscription for the purpose of restoring the Electix'e Franchise, and securing the Freedom of Election in this County .-— You will cheer the measure— the commercial interest will hail it. From the public sentiments of some independent Gentlemen in the county, you may expect hearty support j hundreds besides, uninfluenced by the compact,- will join; so that before the next general election, you will be enabled to ren- der futile that connexion, in high life, in your county, which, by compact, has dispensed with, and trampled under toot your rights, and made your county, otice so famed for freedom and public spirit, more dtgraded than the very dirtiest of close boroughs. Therefore try the measure- organize it— make an effort to recover your rights novo, otherwise your brethren electors in neigh, bouring counties, will have good cause to revile you— your children to accuse you for suffering those privileges, inherited by their forefathers, to be torn fiom them, and the borough- mongers to exult in profligacy, tyranny, and corruption. I am, Gentlemen, your humble servant, AN INDEPENDENT ELECTOR. S. R. A. October 25. have got us so completely under their fe'% that I • Verilv believe, if thev were to pronoso the vetv Devil himself for our Representative, he would he returned ; and I was reillv apprehpnsive he mipbt eet this point brought about ; but I have Ime'v heard from good atithorit , that he is it present ejpeCting to be returned for a Borongh in Eng- land. Gentlemen, these are no common times, and if ever you had it in your power to repurn an independent and pure Represpn'at ve, it was no*' you should have done : t ; but I see vou must, like almost every other c unty in Ireland, return who. ever your Landlords are plei » ed to nominate! Ever since the unfortunate year 1798. our na ion has been oblitred to submit to everv degradation, and to bear every insult without daring to com- plain ( and our Landlords, in general, seem willing to put the last load of mis'rv nn our shoulders, by their oppressive rents, and an increasing taxation ; but, while it is yet time, " Let n, ir civil governors learn hence to respeCt their subjefts ; let th » m be admonished, that the physical strength resides in the governed; that this strength wants onlv to be felt and roused, to lay prostrate the most ancient and confirmed dominion ; that civil authority is found, ed in opini « n; that general opinion therefore ought alwavs to be treated with deference, and managed with delicacv and cirrnmsorCtion."

To the ELECTORS of County DOWN. GENTLEMEN, I cannot but congratulate you on the result of your late election of Lord Castlsreagh, who, I am pe'S" aded, is as well qualified to represent you in these times, as any other you could have chosen and y ur now adopting him in diretf opposition to your former declaration, is a clear proof to the world, and I hope you are now convinced of J urseKes, that your former boasted indtpendent elec. tion was a mere humbug. What is now become of your Squilis and Caricature f Must you not with shame and sorrow confess, that, what you were foolishly taught to call an Independent Election was only a trial of strength between the London derry and Downshire tamiiies; and that you were only tools and instruments in their hands, afling not accoidittg to your own, but according to their will and pleasure. We, in this county, once like you,- foolishly imagined that we were Independent Electors, but experience has long since convinced us o' ihe contrary, for our great Landholders, by shot letting our Lease's tin or tivtlve years every time they tail, and adding from ten to sixteen shillings per A, « is eur ieat, etrsrjr time they renew with us, COMMERCIAL REPORT. f Prom tie Belfast Mtntily Mag* * Me.] After a long state of uncertainty, arising from the unwillingness of many to helieveva faCt, which they disliked to find true, war wiih ' he United States of America is now found to be a sorrowful reality, and all prospect* of a speedy settlement are becoming faimer. Unapplied by the mighty na- val force of Britain, the Americans have sought redress in war, for the manifold aggressions made on their neutral rights, and on the p- rsonal liberty of their citizens by the British. If a negociation should be entered into, although even that preli- minary step is not likely to be soon undertaken, the Americans will probably hold high ground from the knowledge they possess through the mass of evidence brought forward last session of Parlia- ment, at the bar of the House of Commons on the consideration of theOrde's in Council, of the great distress which had acCruerf to the mercantile and manufacturing interests of Britain from the in terruption of the trade wi'h America. When a temporary interruption produced such a distressing situation, and very nearly occasioned a formidable insurrection in the instance of the Luddites, much more distressing events may now be anticipated in the case of a continuance of the war. In the mean time American produce advances as the certainty of the war, and the probability of its continuance are admitted, and as the first fruits of the war more direCtly affeCting this country, the capture of two ships from Jamaica to Belfast may be notedi IndireCtly the efftfls have been previ. ously felt on our manufactures, especially on that which used to be considered the staple manufac- ture of Ireland, the linen. The late market in Dublin, from the very small quantity sold, can scarcely deserve the name of a market. By accounts from America, it appears that some » f the mercantile cities, particularly Phladelphi*, are suffering severely from the war. It is the na- ture of this mighty scourge of our bad passions, to infliCt reciprocal evils on both the contending parties. The natural products of ths one are ren- dered dearer in the other, and both suffer for want of what the other could supply. Neither gains and both suffer great miseries, while their mutual sufferings afford no compensation to either. To measure the depreciation of our present pa- per currency, we must have recourse to giving the price of bnllion, instead of stating as formerly, the direft difference between coin and paper. Gold is £ 5, 14/ and silver 7s. 3d peroz. in the London market; and in Dublin, it is said that the silver, smiths are purchasing the larger bank- tokens for the purposes of their trade, as finding them cheaper than bullion. We may thus account in part for the present scarcity of silver change. Will not the unbelievers in the depreciation of paper, admit this circumstance as bearing considerably against their favourite system, that paper is not depre ciated ? An acknowledged debased or over- rated coinage is found less valuable than bullion, when purchased with bank- notes. The aCt of last session has had no tendency to stop the progress of the evil. It served to give a monopoly to government for purchasing guineas, in exclusion of private dealers, and allowing them to punish all others who should interfere with them ; and it furnished to Lord C- utlereagh and his friends, an electioneering pretext to dupe the farmers of the County of Down, by persuading them, '. hat for their benefit, to relieve them from the payment of discount on their rents, he obtained the aft to be passed. At the very best it is a mere palliative, a political quack medicine, which wil tend to increase the disorder, and hasten the pro cess of depreciation, or rather the dissolution of paper credit. Exchange on London has this month fluctuated in Belfast from 7\ to 8 per cent, and has been from J to J per cent, lower in Dublin. AGRICULTURAL REPORT. From the 20th September to the 20th October, 1811. For several weeks past the weather has been extremely wet and stormy, and a great deal of the grain that was in the fields has been injured The farmers have seldom experienced more diffi. culty and trouble in getting their crops secured, than they have done for the last three weeks; and notwithstanding their exertions, there is still a con- siderable proportion of the corn out, and exposed to the inclemency of the weu'her, so that if a fa- vourable change does not soon take place, a great loss of grain will be the consequence. This unfavourable prospeCt has probably con. tributed to keep up the price of oatmeal, which at present is much higher than it usually is at this time of the year, especially in a season like the 4> r » ei » t, whcu the oat crops appear abuudaut. The absence of frost, which often se's in early in ibis month, has afforde ' time for the late potatoe crops to attain a greater degree of maturity than was erppf'ted, and there is now a tolerable pros- peCt of a plentiful supply of this valuable root, so essential to ihe support of ihe numerous inhabitants of this country. jjfj- ^ DUBLIN POLICE. MARLBOROOGH- STUEET OFFICE. A short time since, a man named Moore, was brought to the Police- Office, Marlborough- place, charged with havinp- uttered forged notes, pur- porting to be of the Bank of Shaw and Co. Some circumstances. came out on his examination, which induced thf Magistrates to direct a search after his accomplices. The exertions of the Police Of- ficers were successful ; for they discovered in a cellar, in King- street, North, and inhibited by two persons, named M'Ardill, a plate for nptes of j a guinea and a half on the Bank of Sir William Alexander and Son, together with a considerable number of notes worked off; a forged die for stamps of '\\ d. similar to those used for stamping bank notes of a guinea and a half, by the Com- missioners of stamp duties; several forgeries on the Bank of Ireland, filled up ; and nearly one hundred pounds in guinea and a half notes, pur- porting to be the Bi^ k of Shaw and Co. The parties have been all fully committed for trial, and prosecutions have been instituted by the re. peCtive Banks. I' is to be hoped, hat at the en- suing C mmission, the delinquents will be brought tojustice S me days ago, a note for jflOO, supposed to be one of ihe nineteen which had been taken from Gentleman unknown, in Tucker's- row, about a month since, was stopped, and notice sent to the Police. Office, Marlborough- place. The person ho tendered it, was taken into custody, together wiih a woman from whom he alleged ihat he had received the note. Upon examination of the par- s, it appeared that the man was not implicated in the transaction, bu' some circumstances were disclosed which in luced the Magistrates to detain the woman. Every exertion was then made to discover the channel through which the note had come into her possession, and at length it was discovered ha', in the month of June last, a bank note for aglOO, together with small notes and bank post bills, to the amount of one hundred pounds more, had been entrusted to the late husband of this w man, who was at that time Guard to a Mai! Coach, for the purpose of being securely con- veyed to a respeflable Merchant in a country town; that the husband h d embezzled the money, and and that the note in question was the identical note so given to the husband. CRUELTY. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, LONDON. Elizabeth Br tier stood indicted for cruelly starv- ng, unmercifully beating, and otherwise most in- humanly treating her own son, Robert Bruce, a child under eight years of age, in the monihs of June and July last in Spitalfields. The trial oc- cupied the Court for sever< 1 hours, and exhibited picture truly shocking to every feeling of hu- manity. The circumstances are shortly these: The traverser is a widow with eight children, and was pregnant with a nin- h at the time this cruelty was discovered. In consequence of the indignant rumours of ihe inhabitant in the neigh- bourhood, a publican, named Homew- od, who lived in the vicinity, went to the apartment where the poor child was confined, and found him al- most naked, perfectly squalid with filth, and ema- ciated from apparent famine. He interrogated the child, who, from his size, appeared not m^ re than four years old ; on being convinced from his answers that his own conjectures were well found- ed, he brought him to his house, gave him food, and immediately acquainted the parish officers, who forthwith applied to the Magistrates at the next Police- office, and the mother was taken into custody. Mr. Fox, a surgeon, who examined the child, said, he found him in the utmost state of misery and dejeCtion, emaciated almost to a skeleton from famine. The child had no disease, nor did he ad- minister any medicine. But from a change of treatment, cleanliness, and food, his appearance was so much altered for the better, in three or four weeks, that he should not have known hirn again if he had not frequently seen him in the in- terim. Elizabeth Jones, a lodger in the same house with the mother, Rose Robins, another lodger, and Mary Hall, occasionally employed to wash for the mother, who kept an eaiirig- house, also gave evidence of the cruel treatment of the child, totally different from that of seven other children, three of whom were grown up, and whom, it was stated, she treated with the greatest kindness. It appear, ed also, from their testimony, that the little victim was confined in a room over the scullery in the yard, and not suffered to play about wi'h the other children; that he was fastened by the leg with a small iron chain to some post or other immoveable thing i/ i the room j and that although he was thus prevented from access, even to the water- closet, the poor child, for the inevitable consequences of such a privation, was severely beaten by his mo- ther. Mai y Hall, in particular, proved, that while she was washing up dishes in the scul'ery, the child by some means, got down to the yard, where he took cabbage- stalks out of the hog- wash tub, and concealed them under his little garments for food ; that he even took the grease off the candlestick to eat, and asked her for water to drink from a dirty pail she was using ; and that the mother bid her take care of the candle ends in the candlesticks, as she could not keep a bit of candle for this boy ; that on her representing to the mother that the poor child she believed, had not enough to eat, she answered, " he had a craving disposition, and was never satisfied." The poor child himself, was next sworn and examined; and gave the most prompt and une- quivocal support to the other evidence. He said he was confined in the room over the scullery, and that he was fastened by the leg with a chain, and lay upon paper- shavings by himself, while his other brothers arid sisters lay upon beds in their mother's room ; aiat he never ate bis meals with their, but got food three timet A day in his GVFQ room ; a very little piece of bread each time, wirh some milk and water, but never enough ; and his mother oftrn beat him with a rod* tie could not tell why ; but because his mother said she hated him, and he never knew for what. He had had good food ever since he was taken from her i be ; did not wish to go back to her again, because he was afraid she would kill him. On ' he part of the defence, several witnesses : wre called to prove the uniform humanity of the j mother to all her children alike. The fir.^ t- of whom was her eldest sm, a young man about 20, and he swore, that as often as he we'it to his mo- thers hous » , which was every other Sunday dur- ng ihe months of May, June, and July, this child , always dined, and was along with all the other children ; he never knew that- he was confined or fed in a separate room. Her second son, about 17; her daughter about 15 ; and her mother, an aged woman, all swore direCtly to the same effeCt } but Mr. Gurney, for the prosecutioYi, declined to cross- examine any of them. The Chairman then summed up the evidence, and the Jury, after retiring for two hours, return- ed their fverdiCl— Guilty; but recommended the prisoner to mercy on account of her family. MAIL ROBBERY. We are sorry to announce one of the most exten- sive robberies of the mail that have occurred since the establishment of mail coaches. On Monday night, while the Leeds mail- coach was proceeding between Kettering and Higham- Ferrars, the coachman spoke to the guard ; and not being able, or pretending not to hear what he said in answer, requested that he would lean forwards over the coach. The guard did so, and continued about five minutes in conversation with him ; when, on resuming his seat, he found that the lock of the lid of the hind part of the coach, where the bags are deposited, had been forced. He instant- ly ordered the coach to be stopped, and communica- ted to the driver the occurrence that had taken place, and his suspicions that more serious injury had been sustained. The coach having pulled up, the guard and coachman proceeded to examine the repository of the mails, and missed no less than sixteen bags. The Lord Mayor sent off police officers in all di- rections, to apprise the Bankers in London and West- minster of the robbery, and to stop such persons as should present bills and drafts of payment from the towns whose mails had not reached the Post- office yesterday morning ; printed circulars were also for warded by post to every post- town in the united king- dom for the same puspose. It will perhaps be recollected, that a few years ago the Leeds mail- coach, in its progress from town, was robbed near Barnet j but it being the evening of a Fast Day, there were scarcely any money or remit- tances in the bags. On the present occasion, the amount is said to be great. COURT AND FASHIONABLES. CFrom the London Examiner.'] The Morning Chrenicle of the 7ih states, that whe i the Princess of Wales went, on Suaday se'nnight, to Windsor, to see her daughter, she was denied that satisfaction, and though her Royal Hiehness demanded and obtained an interview with th » Queen, yet the audience did not prove satisfactory. The Chronicle adds, that the Princess of Wales, upon legal advice, means to move the subject in ihp new Parliament. The Courier of thi- 9ih notices this statement, which it calls " a gross misrepresentation," for that, the very day after ' hat mentioned, her Royal Hi? hness dined wiih her daughter at Kensington. How this proves the statement to be " a gross misrepresentation," we cannot at all discover. The plain ' aCt is, that the Princess of Wales, though she is all wed to dine with ber daughter once a week, in the presence of her Governess and others, is not suffered to iee her in private, to pass any time with her, or to enjoy that happy con- nection with her child, which every mother, who • feels as a mother should feel, is anxious to cheri- b, and which adds so much to the happiness of both. The Queen, gracious, and liberal, and feeling as she notoriously is, has her reasons for denying her daughter- in- law this enjoyment. She, doubtless, sees danger in this association of mother and daughter Her beloved Son, our gracious Pince Regen', he too sees danger in it : and though his late Prime Servant, the patriotic and pious Mr. Perceval, declared he knew of nothing to crimi- naie her Royal Highness, and, even edited " the Book"* in her favour, yet our virtuous Piince, fearing, no doubt, that an unprotected wife might not, have the power to protect her daughter, i » much too considerate to suffer any risk to be run. Common people, indeed, who know little of Royal views and feelings, do think that there is some hing hard in thus debarring a moiber the endearing society of her child—- a privilege too, they say, which the very lowest of her sex enjoy. But this is idle talk. " The best of Queens" mu, t not be susneCled of harsh conduct ; and " ihe most beloved of Princes,"— who is a pat. em for Hus- bands, and Fathers, and Friends— affectionate, chaste, constant— choice in his society, elevated in his views, and dignified in all his pursuits: such a Prince, we say, cannot be supposed capable of wishing t » separate Parent and Child, or of adding this last affliction to the misfortunes of a desetted and insulted woman. • Thi « mysterious work contains, indeed, abundant evi- dence, on oath, exhibiting a pn, fliK, cy the most aband - ned, and an utter destitution of the common principles ot mora i- ty. But the proper time has not yet airived for enlargement OD thin lubjeCt. COURT- MARTIAL. HORSE GUARDS, SEPT. 25 At a General Court- Martial, held at Chatham Barracks on the 2d July, 1812, and continued by adjournments to the 7ib of the said month, privates Thomas Sloan, John Allison, Robert Scott, and Alexander Walace, of the D umtriesshire militia ; John Pugh and David Evans, of the Montgomery militia; Thomas Mit- chell, of the Westmoreland militia i Samuel Newton, ot the Nottingham militia; and Wiliiam Graham, of the Northumberland militia, weie arraigned upon the undermentioned charge, viz.— For mutinous conrfuCt and disobedience of orders, on Thursday the 18th d. y of June, wlieu on a march from Chatham to Sheerness fortrest, with a division of a battalion composed of detachments ot British militia, by relu. ing to go into the island of Sheppy, or cross the passage at ihe KingV& rrjr, th* « -.* » ! swuauuieajiw u. w tU MI4 island, and road to Sheerness, being; an express violation of his ( and their duty) as a soldier ( and soldiers) and contrary to the Articles of War. Upon which cha- ge the Court found all the pri- soners guilty, and sentenced each of them to re- ceive, individually, three hundred lashes on their bare backs, with n cat- o'. nine- tail ;. The Court, however, taking into consideration the circumstances and evidences set forth by the prisoners of their offering to return to their duty, upon the parade in. Chatham barracks, on he 18ih of- June, 1812, by expressing every willingness to go to Sheerness, before they were actually con' fined* and from a conviction that the prisooeij having refused. to do so at the King's- ferry, pro- ceeded more from a ferfeCtly erroneous idea of tlie island » f Sheppy being unconnected With, of a se- parate island from Great Britain, than from any premeditated mutinous conduct or disobedience of orders, doth humbly presume to recommend them generally as objects of mercy; but particularly the prisoner William Graham, who has proved IO th ® Court, that he was delayed, and thereby prevented receiving the pardon, which had been granted to many men who returned to their duty, by the laudable intention of persuading an absent com- rade to follow him in acknowledging his error, and to obtain forgiveness. A pardon has been granted in consequence, to all the prisoners. MILIT A ITYTKOMT) HONS. WAR- OFFICE, OCTOBER 57.
