Previous to the commencement of their periodical labours, the proprietors deem it expedient to submit to the public, a candid explanation of their principles and plan,— Aloof from the various parties that agnate the State, they will be calm, though not " indifferent speitators and recorders of each p issing event. Through the maze of politics, and the tem- pe. t of ] irrin* fa& ioKis, Impartiality shall be their guide, ard Truth theirjpolar star The pages of the TELEGRAPH shall rievfer be contaminated by the viriS Sive effusions of personal malice, nor the wild ravings of inveterate prejudice By rhe. standard of Utility alone, shall every aft of every party be esti- mate!'. Regardless of the source* whence rublic measures may emanate; they will spe- afc of those measures as they may he in themselves advailtag ous or injurious to the F. mpire an- » by their' intrinsic worth alone, will they jpp'- ecia> e ilntir- i u portance. Whatever tends to draw noore closely t^ e links of « oeia! affeifion and hvnonize the passions, sha'l find ready admittance into the columns of the TELEGRAPH :— The proprietors, therefore, invite every philanthropist, every lover of the arts, and favourite of the muses to honor them with their lucubrations;— for thev know, that the ge- nerous and feeling mind, will often turn away with disgust, from the contemplation of war, devastation, and bl'jod, to the rural * eenes of agriculture, the fairy hafcnts of poe3y, or the delightful fields of science ; as the wesry eye, pa ned by the blaze of the meridian sun, looks for relief amidst g- ade « of mingled light and shade,, or peaceful groves of greeu They admire the principles of the British Constitution, and are determined to give hem their loyal and firm sup- port Under the influence of th, * e principles, and st'll more deeply impressed with that noble and peculiar tenet of Christianity—" Do unto all men as ysu zvmtd they shout! do unto you " thev think, the same religious liberty ought to he conceded to others, which they themselves possess Never, theless, tbey are not so tenacious of their own opinions, as to preclude from their columns, calm and temperate discus- sions on Catholic Emancipation, or on any other subj- ft con- netfted with the politics of the British l ies; and on all such matters, they will uniformly preserve the striflest impar- tiality. D ffideit of his talents, yet strong in the purity of his motives, the editor looks with some confi ' encfc to a gener- ous public, for that success, which he wrll use every possible effort to merit. The difficulties he has to encotrnter. in thi- new undertaking, are obvious: yet, to counterbalance these, he possesses many important advantages.— The situation of NEWK v is central; it- mercantile connexions widely extend- ed ; its inhabitants liberal, spirited, and fond of information. A direfi and regular communication is now established be- tween this place and Great Britain, by which he will be enabled frequently to anticipate the Dublin conveyance ; and as the North.- rn mail parses thrr u,; h NEWXY, he will have maay hours advantage, in point of prior ty of rio » e, over mo?.- other similar publications. Add to this, that the pro- prietors have made most extensive connexions in LOSDIM, and will derive their information from the fountain head.— In a word, a better abstract and recapitulation of the inden- tions of the Proprietors of the TetEGSAi'it cannot be g ven, than in the following quotation from their ProspeSus, which has alreadv been submitted ta the Public : " Disavowing all p rty broils or ephemeral starts of in- furiate and indiscriminate censure, this P'p-- T shall be ever open to free discussion, on all 6ubjeiSls provided the sacred boundaries oT candour and moderation be preserved invio- late.— Use'ul tra& s, of every description, shall meet the most cordial attention Public Occrirr nces— Parliamentary Debates— Foreign and Domestic Intelligence, shall be select- ed and arranged wi'h care The Agriculture, Trade, and Manufactures of the North— the Markets of Ireland shall be minutely stated.

And security wiil be required for the peiforinance of each Contract. By order of the Commissioners, ALLAN M'LEAN, Secretary. Custom- House, Dublin, 0< 2. 15, 1812. ( 163 N. B. The different Articles are to be delivered on board he s » vcr » l Criiizsrs at their Stations by the Conuaftors. umph over those principles which it has been th; business of my lite always t> s oppose: and what- ever might have been my individual feelings, I considered it a duty I owed to my country, not to wnhdraw myself from the chance of tendering to it a better service than, peihaps, any domestic po- litics would have given nje an opportunity of doing. It is by an inviolable attachment to those p inciples by which the Constitution has been up- held, by which, in times of u. iparalMled diiHculty ar. d danger, find Wh, ila nations hare been filling ed, but in . nil pans of which the kind reception t have met witWili be indelibly stamped upon my recollec- tion. In this, county it Was thought that the Spirit o^ F party principally pre? tiled ; it was known you' Were yuftering under great and giiifV- mi pritations ; it " was thofight by some people of< gr<* iVj> biIity th. rt you owed your st. fterings to- the miscondw.- t ' of GoVemmeiht.' and not to those oiusirs which have ccrerwhefihed other, nations, and affected our own; it was hoped, that by no very great exertion of talent you might be led to attribute them to causes which changes in the inter- nal situation of affairs might remove, and thus disse- minating those principles amongst yon, a standard might be planted, around which commerce and manu- facturers might rally agaiast the . throne; but, it sure- Iv must hav- b een apparent even to the advocates of these principles t'ie; ns- Ives, that, however their num- bers might prevail, their reasonings would not stand the test. " With regard to peace. It has been thought that the road to peace is through successful war, bat by the men to whom I have alluded, the advocate of this sentiment is considered an enemy to the cause of his country ; —' but can there be any thing so preposterous ? can there be any reasoning more fallacious ? If the • question l^ e between peace and war, - what human being can hesitate to decide. It is whether by prostration we sh. ul obt ain security, or whether it is to be sought in teaching our enemies that we have the means of as- serting and maintaining cur independence. " That you are suiT'ei ing, Gentlemen,— that every man whom I now address must be suffering in his own person in 3 great degree, in his immediate con- nexions in- a still greater, and most of all with regard ! to those people who depend upon him for support, j' arises out of the present state of thp world. But that : these sufferings are inflicted by any other means than ; by that afflicting hand whiclr bringeth down punish- [ nient upon nations, I must utterly deny. You were ! told that peace would cure all that you were suffering 01 expecting to suffer; I should have thought that i would have been the last argument made use of; for whatever injury our enemy has done by stopping up the channels of our trade, I will venture to say, that the same means of mischief which have been employ- ed migiit be practised during peace. What then would be the effect of such a peace f If indeed they who cry for peace, mean no more than that it is to be accepted on any tolerable condition, I do not d'ft'- r with there. Rut that is not what they mean. If they mean any thing different from the rest of man- i kind, they must mean tint they would m.. k » greater concessions, that they would accept 1 - ss favourable terms, that it is to be pttehasecf, at the sacrifice of much, at the hazard - of er - ry thing which m y be called national greatnes- 3. But they do not recollect that every attempt by which commerce h issuffeied in the country, might be re- acted by your enemy, without any ability on youn part to make it matter of remonstrance. For supposing Great Britain to re- i tain her conimeice, anil supposing on the other hand, the enemy to renin that which we have not yet been able to deprive him of, his ]> ower, the ports of the Con- tinent mi^ ht still be shut up against you, and you might sea}. your own exclusi n, without the ability to prevent it. What then mu- t occur in this state of things? Either to re. urn upon your internal com- merce, or to seek a new cause of warfare, in order to re- open the channels which hare been shut against you. " BelieVc me, countrymen, that his first. blovV is at England, and his second at commerce, they are the Teat objects of his ambition as they wdl be the great securities of his power. When those who called up- on the electors of Liverpool for their suffe'rages went round, tfeev took with them a short epitome in their pockets of the experiment which they intended to make upon a I irge scale, but it was first to be nwie-; on a small scale with America. The Orders in Coun- cil were a subject of great; remonstrance, and owing to the unabated attacks of eloquence which were made i against them, they were rescinded. I ne d not { ell you'that £ xpe- iKie » t lias filled, leaving a sufficient ar- ; guinent against the counsels of those men who expect there is » ut one way of preserving peace, by conces- sion, and one mode of nation •! safety, dishonour. " Gentlemen, the other pc: nt upon which the s; and- ard was formed against which I was called upon to take the field, was that of internal reform ( G ntie- men, the view I have often taken on this suSj - ct which agitates the public mind, has been simply tins, that the evil complained of does not exist, and therefore the remedy called for is unnecessary; because I differ radically in what is thought to be the functions of the Members ot Parliament, because I think we have the happiness to live under a limi'- er- j M marchy, oeCause I think the office of the Members of the House of Commons is to controul the Ministers of the crown, 1 to watch over every part of the community, t, u forget ! its corporate functions, and to net, not as Members j from Independent States, hat to unite their efforts in j promoting the general interests of the country at large, if this is a true view cf the state of Parliament, and I think it is so in its practice, tiien is the House of Commons ecjual to all that can fie expected, and the result is that, under which England has already flou- rished ; and I cannot think ill of that Government by which it has been raised abot'e a'l other nations, an. l distinguished from them by the brilliancy of its at- cltieveinertts, and ths. loftinfcss of its character. ' It is upon these principles alone that I have allow- ed myself to be offered lor the town of Liverpool, i and contended against C. pposite principles, and the measure of my satisfaction shall be full, if Manches- ter approve the choice which Liverpool has made.— T can only say, that whatever may be the defects in Parliament, sa long as the present deficiency shall con- tinue, if it be your wish, I shall endeavour to m ike ' he deficiency as little to you as possible, by represent ing all the wants of Manchester Allow me to return the compliment which you have $ 0 liber- ally bestowed upon me, by drinking " Prosperity and sttcces's to the towri and ftianufa& uras of Manchester."—( Three times three.) Mr. CANNING was near three- quarters of an hour in delivering the spee: h, of which the above is an abstraft, during which the eyes and ears of every individual were firmly rivetted upon the orator.

The CH4IRMAS.—" Gentlemen, we must ever hold in erateful remembrance the great and good rnan, whose whole life was devoted to the Service ' of h-^ country, and olio successfully exerted his matchless power in resisting the contagion, under the shameful effefls of which a- large portion of F. nrope is now suffering; I will therefore intro- duce " The immortal memory of the Right Hon. Wm. Pitt, the revered friend of our highly- esteemed Visitor, and rhe renowned Pntriot who so efMually shielded us in the hot'rf of danger"— in solemn silence. Mr. CAUNING spoke nearly as follows J— " I should not have presumed to hive intrn- Jei myself again upon yqur attention, i! yont worthy Chairman had not accompanied his top. st with an allusion personally to myself, which placed me in a'situation in which it would have b en awk ward for me to have been entirely silent, if I were not to express my obligations to a connexion, which has been the proudest boast and glory of my life Gentlemen, if in the humble eff. irts which it may- be in my power to make in the service of my coun- try I shall in p. ny measure be able to entitle mv. self to the good wishes which you have been k: nd enough to express, and whatever I may aim at which I can perfefl or accomplish, I shall ever be ready to avow that it will be entirely owing to the example of him, and to his instru3ions, with whom you have done me the honour to couple me ia the toasrthis evening.

They were those of h ilding high the honour and dig- nity of th? Country, and resisting the hazir ions innovations which were attempting to be made upon them.

His vv- re principles by wh ch, amidst tKe storms whi- li had never before threatened this country, he fores w the danger while it wits yet in embry. i, and fits firmness resisted and dispelled the - t > rm, when it gathered streng. h, which threatened to over- whelm the Constitution.

Gentlemen, it has been my lot to hold, to resign, and to decline high'office. I have held it with a firm desire to do good to my coun ry ; I resigned it for reasons which it'is not needful to here reca- 1" pitulate— I. thought my means of service were inadequate; and'if I lately declined it, it was be- cause it was not tendered to me with- means whict* would enable me ta serve my country with effect.

FATAL DUEL. On Tuesday, the 20th of October, there was buried, at Leek, M. Le Courbe, a French Naval Officer, who was on parole at that place.— The circumstances which led to the death of this young rinan ar? truly uncommon. About ten days previous to his decease, he was out beyond the hour when Prisoners ought to return to their lodgings, and on this account the boys collected about, and pelted hinj with stones. His behavi- our on this occasion made one of his brother Of- ficers observe, " that he was soft— that he would Faint at th? sight of his own blood." . Le Courbe gave him the lie, the other struck hint, ahd the consequence was a challenge. Each party had his second ; but as they could only procure one pistol, thev cast lots who should have the first fire ! It fell on Le Courbe. Ten yards was the distance measured out by the seconds. Le Cour- be fired, and his ball went through both the thighs of his antagonist, who fell on the ground, declaring, that as La Courbe had tiow got satis- ! tion, he should not take his chance. The seconds, however, insisted on his firing, and helping him tip, and supporting him, he,. in this shocking situ- ation ( the blood streaming from his wounds), took his fire, and his ball went through Le Cour- be's neck. the 20th a Coronal's inquest was held on the body ; ard strange as it may appear, the Jur> j brought in their vet cl let— Died by the visitation of j ( Sod!

' The universal interest which he excited when a boy, by the gift of decla- mation ( itfhich he possessed in no ordinary de- gree!, made us curious to ascertain whether this talent was now seconded by the understanding; so as to realize the promise of his early years. It is not often that premature endowments ripen in- to excellence ; but in the present instance the for- tune which his youthful portions acquired, had been properly used in giving him a liberal eduCa, tion: and we fondly hoped ro find in him the powers of an enlightened mind animating an ex- pressive countenance, and modulating a musical voice. It would, perhaps, be ungenerous and un- ' farr ro state the impression- that was made on us by the essav of last night. He appeared in the character of Achmet, WBnrbrir. ossa, we suppose on. account of the allusion to his age, and perhaps also* if we remember . right, because he made his debut in that character when he first came out— Though nor written with strength, the part af- fords scope for an actor of genius ; for there are situations in which a warm and intelligent mind might display itself, and by a quick imitation of the feelings that r-' ould naturally agitate the heart in such scenes, arouse the sympathy of the spec- tators. We . looked in vain for this proof of prompt intellect to comprehend, or of the rare capacity to convey the varying emotions of the soul. The latter may be owing' to the hollow tone of his vaice, and to the incapacity of expres- sion by the chubbv fullness fif. hrs cheeks; and yet we should think, that if he felt' the quick impulses of the passion, which the situation and the words inspire, it would at times beam through all the : obstructions of his countenance, and give force and variety to. his utterance. . We- feat, however, that he is a mere reciter-*- a person who has been tutored to speak wi'h clearness, and to deliver himself with that open and direct proportion of sound which makes every syllable audible— a proof of the value which every public speaker < ,' bt to set on the power Of fopning the words in t! i;~ i. ruth, and of giving to each its just time and measui as well as its tone and emphasis.— This gift of articulation Mr. Betty continues to enjoy. The voice, as we have said, is hollow or foggy. It wants the silvery sweetness by which the heart is soothed and . our sensibility put in fric- tion ; but in ievel speaking he never fails to satis- fy the understanding, ft if in the delineation of the part that he is defective. We look in vain for the inward thortght— the wrrkings of the bo- som, that stamp the image of the passion on the man, and gives to, histrionic re pre '• itption tha • influence and allusion of reality. A curious cir- cumstance occurred previous to the - cene in which Achmet appears. Mr. Creswell, who per- formed the character of Snili, being mistaken by a part of the audience for the hero of the even- ing, received the applause which had been reserv- ed for Mr. Betty. As we have observed above, the character of Achmet is so well calculated for the powers of Mr. Betty, that he could scarcely ftii of a favourable reception. All the situations and feelings of the part are suitable to his age and talents.— The rest ' dt the characters were very ably sustained by the respective performers, and the Play was given out for repetition to morrow, with loud approbation. The house was well fill- ed, but not to an overflow.—( Star.) COVENT- GAHDEN THEATRE— Mr. Betty, on Thursday, repeated the character of Achmet, in the Tragedy of Barbarossa. He was received with applause, but even this equivocal proof of excel- lence was administered in less profusion than be- fore; The audience looked and listened, without hetraying any of the formidable emotions of the first night ; and but for the roar between the acts at the women who held out their shawls in the upper boxes, the general repose would have ex- perienced few interruptions.— ••:) Mr Betty's engagement at Corent Garden Theatre is 5ft/. each night for twelve performances before Christmas, and at the same rate for twelve nights after tn, it period ; besides a benefit free of all expence. At the close of his former successful career, he had realized £ 40,000. of which he has caused £ 1,800 to be settled on his sister, born about the commencement " f his scenic life.

Notwithstanding all the efforts of our gallant troops, the Castle of Burgos still holds out,- with » a resolution of which it* is impossible to withhold the admiration due to bravery ; and by the latest news it appears that Lord WELLINGTON," antici- pating an attack from the concentrated French forces near Madrid, has withdrawn the army from the siege, and returned towards the capital, from whence we may soon expefl to hear of a general' engagement, and- we trust a result glorious to the British arms. The condu.^ of the siege, in the mean time, is said to be entrusted to the Spaniards. The London Journals of Saturday had not ar- rived when this Paper was put to Press ; but the following interesting anticipation of their contents was received in Dublin :— • London, Saturday, November 7. By the Sparrow, which has arrived fr om Sir H. Popham's squadron, private accounts, have been, received from Lord Wellington's army before Burgos, up to the 21st Oflober. These, letters state, that Lord Wellington had that - morning received information, that Sotilt, having collected the armies of Andalusia, Valencia, and the Center,' -• emed disposed to advance with. his united fnirces upon Madrid, This intelligence h id, it was re- por ? d, decided Lord Wellington to leave the Spaniards before Burgos, and to hasten,- with hi's own arij'y, to the South, to reinforce General Sir R. Hill, and to oppose, in person, the combined strength f the enemy. This movement,- it was txpecled th » t his Lord:; hip, with that celerity and decision which marks all bis measures, would tale place on the vening of the 21st, or morning of the 22 1; so t!, - we may now expetf to see new features in the campaign.

In the middle of the day,' a f? ne ' bull' was driven full speed through the town, by a number of beings whose conduct was a disgrace' to th<- name of man, as a preparation to. the expected pleasure of be- holding the noble animal torn to pieces by dot, s. However, on the first intimation of such an illegal proceeding, Mr Wilson, the mayor, interfere^ arid' by bis exertions the intended . sport was prevented " af- ter some opposition, as he was.. under the necessity of arresting, and lodging in prison,- one. of the most tur- bulent of fhe gang, where he. still lies,. until he can find security that' lie will not again be guilty of such a daring violation of the laws of his country. A" tetter appeared in the Dublin Correspondent of Friday last, dated Livetpool, Oct. 31, stating th* loss of the Onzehjbo cartel, from . Baltimore to^ th'at poi- t, with ^ 00 passengers on board, five of whon> onlj\ were saved. Great hopes are ehtm'ained that the report is unfounded. The - cloth mamifaflories of Russia, according- to the report of 1804, were 1553 in number, Conl t'aining 24- 2S looms ; and enTploying 28,639 hanjs of both sere's. The quantity'of clo'h mani'aflure t tjhat year only for the army, was 1.806,632 arshin « » or about 1,405,158 English, yards.

He much amused the P ymoufh audi- ence at the Theatre, on Barnes'* night, la- it Mon- day, by the eipressive astonishment he evinced while the performance was going on.

He- begged leave to give " Miss PlatotF, the fair Cos- sack, and her patriotic Father*— may she soon be blessed with a deserving husb. r. d, that both she and the nations of Europe m , y rejnice."

Say, reader ! hast thou in the morn, While the bright day is yet unborn; Or Sol, from ' heath bis eastern cloud, Hath rose in radiance bright and proud; Or, e'er the I. ev'rick's feathery wirg Doth beat the air, and heaven- ward spring, Hast thou e'er pressed the early dew, And ' neath the sky's cerulean hue, E'er wandet'd forth to breathe the air, When nature reigns most sweet, most fair? Hast thou, while culling tender flowers, Embath'd in soft nocturnal showers, tuhal'd the odour of the Rose ? As zephyr passing gently blows Its fragrance through the morning breeze, While, ' neath the foliage of the trees, It droops its crimson blushing head Upon the leaves, around it spread. Oh ! have you mark'd its sp'ning breast—. Its rosciad leaves and dark- green vest— The luscious tints of white and red, Which nature hits so bounteous shed On this, her lovely tender flower— Sweet emblem of man's ev'ry hour ? Or, have you mark'd its orient hue, When in full bloom it strikes the view, Eich soft curl'd leaf, all moist with due; And as it drops in chrystal gems Upon the neighb'ring hawthorn stems; Have you e'er bent with op'ning lip, Those lucid gems to quaff, to sip ? Then, I do say, you've tasted bliss, Unequall'd, in that rapt'rous kiss; That man does more than mortal feel, When thoughts like these do o'er him steal: That then the soul takes wing to Heaven, And glory to the God is given, As pure, as grateful, and as true, As ever meets the Almighty's view. Yes! the great works of nature's God, Who shakes the world but with a nod; As plain is seen in this mild flower, A6 works of more stupendous power. But JIT, Ofloier 19, 1812. } M. J. I . .

A New Review, or, Monthly Analvsis of Ge- reason, full v VARIETIES, UTKRARY AND PHILOSOPHICAL. [ Frcm the London Monthly Magaz'ne.] It is a problem at once useful an4 amusing to determine the proportionate circulation of the v » . rious periodical publications. At present, very confused and contradiflory ideas prevail on the s, ubjeO. It is little suspefled by the public at , large, that, on the last afternoon of every month, nearly j£ 4000 is received in a few hours, by pro- prietors of Magazines, Journals, and Reviews. It is this regular periodical and recurring circula- tion, however, which confers so effeftive an im- pulse on literature in England. French literature has many advantages from its foreign trade in books, arising from the universality of the lan- guage. The Germans depend on their half- yearly fairs at Leipsic. Btit the English bookrtrade en- joys the advantages of a monthly Fair, when everv bookseller in the Empire, ( above 1000 in number,) writes to his London Correspondent, at once, for liis- periodical publications, and for all miscellane- ous orders which the month has accumulated. This branch of literature is, consequently, the life and soul of the whole, and is the occasion of twice or thrice its own amount being sold twelve times in a year. Various causes have always rendered it difficult to ascertain the precise sale of each of the monthly publications ; a close apptcuma'ion may, however, be made by means of a lisr which lately appeared in a Dublin paper. This list pto- fesses to exhibit the monthly sale © f the threat bookselling- house of Longman, Hurst, & Co. in Taternoster. row, London, who vend, at least, a neral Literature, is announced from the classical press of Mr. Valpy. The plan is, to analyse every j nublication, by giving a view of the Contents; rhe . Preface, when it explains the subje^; and ex'rafts of prominent and striking parts of the book ; thu enabling the reader to exercise a judgment unpre- judiced by the sentiments of the Reviewer: also to print a Supplementary Number at the end of ' the year, iontainingt an Index of Subjefts with re- ference to the authors, who have treated n them ; thus perpetuating a full and correft lisi of all wri- ters, and of the subjefls of their publication. We wish it success, and hooe it may set an honest ex- ample to the other Reviews, most of which are pros ituted to the basest purposes of personal ma- lignity. Another Periodical Publication, under ihe title of the Author's Review and Literary Prnteftnr, the Objeft of which is to rescue works of importance from the attacks of uncandid and partial critics, will make its appearance in January next. Such a work, well conduced, will merit the patronage of the literary world. Mr. C.

The tessellated pavement discovered in 1811, at Bignor, in Sussex, was covered with earth to preserve it during la- t winter. It has been lately opened agai 1, and the surrounding land dug up, for the purpose of further discovery. A series of apartments are now exposed, all pnved with beau- tiful mosaic, the most of it in the highest stnte of preservation, and exhibiting perhaps the best spe- cimen of the kind in this country. The various figures are well defined and delineated, some of them very beautiful, patticularly an eagle with Ganymede, a pheasant, a dolphin, and some others. Walls are ere& ing on the ancienf. founda. titjns, the ruins furnishing materials, so that the of the bnilding may be tolerably traced. It no doubt has been the villa of some of the Roman Generals, the chief city of the Regni, Chichester, where Vespasian Sxed hts head- quarters, being within a few miles, and the ancient Roman road thence to London crossing the South Downs di- refl'y'in front of the edifice. The surrounding scenery is very romantic, and must have been al- ways interesting. The destruction may be dated from that of many other m- mum^ n's of the power and splendour of the Romans at one time in this county, from the barbarous invasion of the Saxons under the ferocious Ella, who, irritated with the formidable opposition he met at Chichester, ra- vaged it and the surrounding country with fire and sword, with the most v.",- denting fary.

On Saturday, a foot- pad robbery took pi, ice about onVo'clock in the day, attended with verv extraordi- nary circumstances. Mr. R. Thorley, on his. way from town to his residence at Petersham-, sent his ser- vant forward from Wandsworth with a message to hii private j| turns off to Richmond. When Mr. ThoVIey had. ed the benefits that are derived from them. If a mother is hesitating about having her child vaccinated, the reply, now so frequent, ' of the prac'itioner, « Why, madam, I have vaccinated my own," is decisive and satisfactory. Had the renowned Catherine attempted to introduce small pox inoculation into her vast dominions by be- ginning with the boors, not all her guards would have sufficed to enforce the imperial mandate She first caused herself to be inoculated, which at that period was no ordinary effort of heroism, and the princes and nobles of her empire instantly vied with each other in submitting to the then new and fearful operation. From the very few exceptions which all the exertions of interested or prejudiced individuals have, with unremitting vigilance, been able to detect and bring to light, the harmlessness of vaccine inoculation in its consequences, and its security from subsequent small pox, may be con- sidered as firmly established, but there are always persons to be found who— " Spots in the sun with feign'd acuteness see.

REPORT OF DISEASES, , /* the fira& ise of a Physician, in JVeitminter ; from the 25tb of September, to the 25th of Oilofor, 1SI2. The weather during the period of this Report has been remarkably wet, and for the most part cool. The quantity of rain nearly four inches ; the range of the barometer low. The prevailing wind westerly. On the 29th of September, and the 1st of October, thunder. Complaints in the bowels have much abated ; those of the chest have increased. Several infants have been affected with severe cough and fever; and small- pox has appeared amongst the lower classes of society in various parts of London and Westmin- ster. About thirty have died weekly of this com- plaint during the autumn. Yet it is consoling to observe, that this fatality is chiefly amongst peo- ple who have resisted the practice of vaccination, which is gradually advancing, in : te of the ef- forts of its opponents and the management of its supporters. In a free country, the poor ( and their attachment to their children is as stiODg and warm as in more polished life,) are jealous of that charity which is forced upon them, and doubt the intentions of those who would compel A Deposit'on was lately made before the Magistrates of Shad well, by a boy named Mades, who formerly belonged to the Adventurer, South Sea W haler, Capt. Keith, which ship, it had been suppo- sed, was lost in the South Seas, but which it appears from Mades' deposition, was seized by the crew, who murdered Capt. Keith, and the Chief Mate, and af- tewards scuttled the vessel. In consequence of Made's statement, Glennen, Wortley, and GofF, were sent down to Liverpool to search for Charles Frederick Palm,- a Swede, who was second mate of the Adven- turer, and Samuel Telling, the cooper. They were both apprehended, and brought to town, and on Tuesday evening they underwent an examination before Mr. Biinie, when Telling gave the following account of this atrocious transaction. The Adventurer sailed from London in September 1811. Deponent sailed in her as cooper; they had been out about six moiatlis when the Captain and Chief Mate were murdered. It was about four o'- clock in the morning. The Captain and Chief Mate were in bed ; a boy, named George, was at the helm, and Palm and the rest of the crew were forward on the deck. Palm was striking a light, when the Cap- tain came on deck in his shirt, and said to him, " Charles what are you. about i" Palm made no an- swer, but stiuck him with a cooper's hammer which he had in his hand. 1' he Captain exclaimed « Oh Charles, you have done me." Mr Smith had follow- ed the Captain upon deck, and was attacked by ano- ther Swede, since dead, who struck him seveial times on the head yith the cook's axe. Both the Mate and Captain being knocked down, two other Swedes, who are also iiirce de ;'!, assisted by Palm, hove the bodies overboard. The Mate called out, " boat, boat," after he was in the water, but they heard nothing more of the Captain or him afterwards. After this, all hands went below deck, and Palm pro- duced a Bible, upon which they took a solemn oath never to divulge what had passed : the boy who was at the helm was afterwards sworn also. Some time- previous to this, tile Captain hod, brought two black men on board, and after the bodies of the Captain and Mate were hove overboard, the two Swedes procur- ed, each of them, a pistol and a glass of rum ; thej rum they gave to the blacks, and while the poor fellows were in the act of drinking, each of them received the contents of a pistol in the body. One of them v as shot dead; the other was only wounded ;, but both were instantly thrown overboard. Tlie wounded man swam after the ship, and caught hold of the rudder, upon which Palm took up a spade and swore if he did not let the rudder go, he would cut his hands off; upon which the unfortunate wretch let go his hold, and was seen no more. After this they plundered the Captain's property. Palm then took the command of the vessel; but after some con- sultation, it was determined to scuttle her, and take to the boats ; two boats were prepared, and provi- sions put on board ; the Clew, consisting of II per- sons, then got into them, and they steered for the coast of Africa: they were three days and three nights before they made land, and then one of the boats was swamped, and a boy was drowned in getting on shore. They walked along the shore till night, when they lay down on the s inds to sleep, and the following morning proceeded fai tliei in.,< » the country, and perceived some smoke to rise from the midst of a cluster of trees, at a distance: they made towards them, when tlie blacks rushed out upon them, overpowered and stript them, and then marched them some distance into the coun- try, where they were kept some weeks, when they were sent to Port Lopez, a Portuguese settlement, from whence Mades, Palm, and the deponent got to Liverpool. Soon after the Adventurer left Englind, the ciew were put on short allowance, and so continued ; they were discontented atthis geneially, and said they might as well be killed at once as starved to death. On the morning in which the Captain and mate vvere murder- ed, Palm, whilst he was striking a light, said he would kill the Captain ; the Swedes agreed to do so, and said any one wiio did not should share the same fate. The deponent assisted in throwing overboard the two blacks, bat did not touch the Captain or mate. Palm's account was as follows :— He sailed from England in the Advemiirer, as second mate ; he had no disagieement with the Captain till they anived on the coast, and then they differed about wages ; he re- membered the Captain';! bringing two black men on board from St. Thomas's, and that soon after the Cap- tain was drowned by tile bite of a whale- line having accidentally caught his leg after he had struck a fish, and he was thereby pulled overboard ; one of the blacks went over immediately after him, and was seen no more. He did not know what became ot the other, but had been told he went over also. Mr. Smith, the mate, was an old man, and died of sickness on board, during the voyage. This was all he knew of the circumstance. They were both committed for re- ex- amination. poss'd the first gate, he p- rceived a female, attired like a Quaker, and a man followinghei* at a short dis- j tance, on the side path. The man appeared to be a I mechanic, with an apron folded round him. As soon as Mr. T. came opposite to him, he sprang, from the foot- path into the road, which causing Mr. T.' s horse to start! he involuntarily, struck him across the breast with a rattan stick ; and supposing the man to be in- toxicated, he inquired what he was about. The rob- ber took out a pistol from Ins left side, which Mr. T. observed was loaded up to the muzzle, presented it, and said, " I must have your money," Mr, T. replied, " you can have but little ;" and gave, all the silver he had, consisting of a bank- token or two, and a few shillings. The man observed, " If vou will do me no injury, I shall not hurt you;" and then « retired, spying, " Real distress has compelled me to this act." This observation disarmed Mr. T. of all resentment against the unfortunate wretch, anil he wis only soli- citous to render him service. He told him it wasia shocking alternative he had chosen ; and inquired iif he did not know, that by the act he had just commit- ted, he had forfeited his life. The foot- pad walked on, and would hear no more. M-. T. was still anxi- ous to learn the man's situation, and continued station- ary and looking after him : but the footpad mistaking his object, turned back and followed him hastily, with a presented pistol. Mr. T. did not, however, lose sight of him, Attiring to no greater distance than was necessary to avoid the danger of the shot. At this instant a person on horseback passed close to tiie rob- ber, when Mr. T. called ouf, " a highway- man !"— The footpad shewed his pistol, and desired tile gen- tleman to go on, who proved to be a Mr. Smith, of the city. Mr. T. and, Mr. S. conferred together as to the best mode of apprehending the man, when Mr. Reeve, a Magistrate, arrived on the spot. By this time the footpad had got over the hedge into an ad joining field ; and a servant of Mr. Nettleship's hav- ing joined the party, means were immediately em ployed to take him. Mr. Smith rode to Wandsworth for a constable, whilst the other persons stationed themselves in such directions as to prevent the possi- bility of an escape. At this moment a pistol was heard from the opposite side of the hedge to that on whiclf Mr Reeves was ; and that gentleman conceiv- ed he had been fired at by tlie robber ; but OH investi- gation it was found that the wretched foot- pad had laid violent hands upon himself, by discharging the contents of the pistol in his own head. He was found wiihout one of his shoes, lying on his back, and quite dead. The body was taken to Wandsworth, where a Coroner's inquest was held upon it on Monday last. Verdict— Felo de se. Some hundreds of persons have attended to view the deceased, but by none of them had he been recognised up to Monday night.
