DECREE FOR RE ESTABLISHING THE INQUISITION. Madrid, July 26.— The King has just issued the iollowing Decree:— " The glorious title of Caiholic, which distinguishes us from among all oilier Christian Princes, is owing lo the perseverance: of the Kings of Spain, who would never tolerate in their States any other Religion than the Catholic, Apostolic, and Roman, Thi^ title im- joses upon me the duty to rt pder myself w orthy of it > v all Ihe menus which Heaven has placed within my power. The late troubles, and the war which has desolated during six. jt ars every province in the king- dom ; the lofig abode which has bees made in Spain by troops of ditiiyent sects, almost all of whom were ' jifttted u iili sentiments of hatred tpwards our re- ligion, the disorder v^ liich has been, the itifallible re- stilt of this, and the inattention vvitti which the affairs of otir holy religion have been treated during this un- fortunate period; all these circumstances united have laid the tield open to wicked persons, w ho have never experienced any check; dangerous Opinions have been introduced, and have taken root in our States by the same means as they are spread in other countries. ' Wishing then to remedy so grievous an evil, and lo preserve among my subjects the holy religion of Jesus Christ, which they hav^ always revered, and in w hich they have lived and ahSiays wish to live, either on account, of the personal obligation of having no other imposed on t( i£ Princes whsreigu oyer llum by the fundamental laws, which 1 liovt promised and sworn to observe, or liecause this religion is the most certain means of sparing my peoplfc from intestine dis- sensions, and ensuring to lliem ^ hat tranquillity of which they stand in heed, [ have judged it necessary, under the present circumstances, that Ihe Tribunal of the Holy Office should resume its jurisdiction. " Upon this subject, learned and virtuous Prelates, many iexpectable corporations and grave personages, ecclesiastics and seculars, have represented to me that Spain is iiideblfd to this Tribunal f^ v the good fortune of not having fallen, in Ihe lGth century, into errors which have caused so many misfortunes among other nations; and that, on the contrary, at that period, the sciences were here cultivated with distinction, and Spain produced a multitude of great men distin- guished by their knowledge aiitl their piety. It has further bten represented to me, thai the ppprcrsor of Europe has hot neglected to employ, an efficacious method of introducing the corruption and discord which supported so well his pfojyds, the suppression of this Tribunal, under the vain bretpxt that it could exist no longer in copsecjgence of tiie enHgtitened state of the { iresent age, and that the pretended Cortes, general and extraordinary, under the same pretext, and under tiie favour of the Constitution, which tlicy tumultiionsly df. t, reed, abolislied also the Holy Office, to the. regret of the wjiblt nation.

" July 21^ 1,814. . ' " I, THE KING" , 1 bis decree is couiitersigned by his Excellency Don Pedro Macanaz, whose grandfather passed the greater part of his life in prison, at the commence- ment of the lust century, « nd died in exile t'oij- paving lyrrtti'U ag'aDist the Impisition. Perhaps in 110 age or tiqsr. w there -> inftre preg- nant sample of ( icvoti d bigotry to be found ihan the Decree issued by Ferdinand VII. for the/ re- establish incut of the Inquisition. Toleration,- si seems, is . blotted out of the Spanish . Code, and tin: stay of foreign troops in the country for a consider- able period, is made a subject of complains, be- cause they were almost all infected with sentiments of hatred against the holy Catholic Religion. Such is the grateful return made by the Spanish Monarch to that British army which preserved the existence of Spain as an independent country . Our army fought bravely and victoriously against the invaders ot Spain, but they were heretics, ai;^ their services are therefore set at nought. Hut h is the liberality j) f the Restored Government of Spain. Amongst the most curious ports of the decree, is that in which Bonaparte and the Spanish Cortes are both equally anathematized, for having abo- lished the Holy Inquisition, on the savie pretext, and as we are'greveiy told, to the regret of tb « - htlfe nation, ' t he eilects of bigotry operating upon imbecility of mind have been frequently exemplified, but it remained for the present ag- e . t*' record a more striking instance of the tgregioiw folly of furious intolerance, lhat the Spanish natioti wish for the restoration of the Inquisition, cannot for a moment be believed; but that a con- siderable number of the Ecclesiastics of Spain have wrought the setting tip again of this engine of tyranny, iu order to re- establish their power, ii abundantly evident; it is lamentable to . observe that they have found an instrument for their pur- pose so ready to their hands. After perusing thU Decree, it is idle tci suppose that the Spaniards have the slightest chance of ameliorating their situation under the Government of Ferdinand. Tyranny is restored under the auspices of bigotry and superstition, and the hopes held out oj' a tree Constitution were, it is now evident, a mere delu- sion. The formal re- establishment of the inquisition in Spain, is an irrefragable proof of the truth of Artistotle's opinion, " that there are some nation^ which cannot live under a free government."— Polities. Book VII.— The people of Spain seem to be precisely in this condition ; and the universal history of mankind proves, that liberty is a good which cannot be dealt out in eqqal pyHions to all states. We may lament that condition of tiie human mind which is adapted to such a state ot' things ; but, philosophically arguing, we have no more reason to condemn it, than any other imper- fection in the ' moral world, wfcich only time can change. If the Spanish- people had really ac- quired just notions of liberty during the last six years, they have, duiing the same period, practi- cally acquired a knowledge of the means to secure that liberty; but the fact that the King has suc- cessfully restored the Inquisition, proves, that how- ever there may be a few enlightened individuals in that country who can appreciate, and would achieve, better things, the great masjs of the population still remain in that state to which the theological ty- ranny of centuries has reduced them, and from which it is chimerical to suppose the revolution of a few years can retrieve tltcm. It would, indeed, constitute « nice point of political casuistry, to determine wht ther there exists any right on the part of a Government to innovate against the wish of the majority of the people. If it be said that the end ot all government is to produce ihe greatest possible quantity of good to the governed, and that therefore any change is warranted which has a certain tendency to that effect, it i- night be replied, that happiness, to be substantially such, must be adapted to the capacity of the recipient ; that nations, as well as individuals, can be happy only while they feel themselves so? and that to devise modes of happiness from any speculative prin- ciples, without considering the condition of those who are lo be bettered, w ould be like a man who should determine to build an elegant palace upon a piece pf ground not spacious enough tor a hunting seat. There would be that violation of proportion which is equally fatal in the moral as in tiie physi- cal world. Before, therefore, the relapse of the Spanish Government into all its- ancient and op- pussive errors be condemned, the question for a philosophical inquirer to determine, would be whether the Spanish people, at the present mo- ment, are lit fur the reception of any other form of polity, and whether it would be wise, or even possible, to anticipate, with regard to ihem, the march of time and the consequent progress of human u- tint. u. tl. V FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE. TUESDAY, AUGUST 9. WAR- OFFICE, AUGUST 9, 1814. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has been pleased, in the name and on the behalf of his Majesty, to appoint Lieut- General his Royal Highness William Frederick Henry, the Hereditary Prince of Orange, to be General in the Army. DOWXING- STREFT, AUGUST8, 1814. Extract of a dispatch received from Lieut.- General Sir George Prevost, by Eari Bathurst, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for the War and Co- lonies :— Head- quarters, Montreal, July 13,1814. MY LORD— I have received from Lieutenant- Gene- ral Drummond, Major- General Riall's official report of the' sortie made from the lines at Chippawa, which I have the honour of transmitting to your Lordship. I do not understand that the enemy, since the ac- tion, have attempted to advance. I have the honour to be, & c. GEORGE PREVOST. Earl Bathurst. SIR— I have the honour to inform you, that the enemy effected a landing on the morning of the inst. at the Ferry, opposite Black Rock, having driven in the piequet, of the garrison of Fort Erie. I was made acquainted with this circumstance about eight in the morning, and gave orders for the immediate advance to Chippawa of five companies of the Royal Scots, under Lieut- Colonel Gordon, to reinforce the garrison of that place. Lieut.- Colonel Pearson had moved forward from thence with the flank companies of the 100th, some militia, and a few Indians, to re- connoitre their position and numbers ; he found them posted on the ridge parallel with the. river, near the ferry, and in strong force. 1 received information from Major Buck, that they had also landed a con siderable force above fort Erie. In consequence of the King's regiment, which I had every reason to ex pect the day before from York, not having arrived I was prevented from making an attack that night. The following morning, the 4th, a body of their troops were reported to be advancing by the river; I moved to reconnoitre, and found them to be in consi derable force, with cavalry and artillery, and a large body of riflemen. Lieut- Colonel Pearson was in advance during this reconnoissance with the light company of the Royal Scots, and the flank company of the 100th, and a few of the 19th light dragoons, four of whom, and eight horses, were wounded in a skirmish with the enemy's riflemen. Having been joined by the King's regiment on the morning of the 5th, I made my dispositions for attack! at four o'clock in the afternoon. The light companies Of tile Royal Scots, and 100th regiment, with the 2d Lincoln militia, formed the advance under Lieut.- Colonel Pearson. The Indian warriors were through- ' out on our right flank in the woods. The troops moved in three columns, the third it he King's regi- ment) being in advance. The enemy had taken up a position with his right resting on some buildings and orchards, close on the river Niagara, and strongly supported by artillery; his left towards the wood, having a considerable body of riflemen and Indians in front of it. Our Indians and militia were shortly engaged with the enemy s riflemen and Indians, who at first cheeked their advance, but the light troops being brought to their support, they succeeded, after a sharp con est, in dislodging them, in a very handsome style. I placed two light twenty- four pounders, and a five and a half inch howitzer, against the right of the enemy's position, and formed the Royal Scols and l00th Re- giment, with the intention of making a movement upon his left, which deployed with the greatest regu- larity, and opened a very heavy fire. I immediately moved up tin: King's regiment to the right, while Royal Scots and 100th regiment, were directed to charge the enemy in front, for which they advanced with the greatest gallantry, under a most destructive lire. I am sorry to say , however, in this attempt they suffered so severely,' that I was is obliged to withdraw them, finding their further efforts against the superior numbers of the enemy would be un- availing. Lieut- Colonel Gordon and Lieut- Colonel the Marquis of Tweedale, commanding these regiments, being wounded, as were most of the officers belong- ing to each, I directed a retreat to be made upon Chip- pawa, which was conducted with good order and regularity, covered by the King's regiment, under Major Evans, and the light troops, under Lieut- Co- lonel Pearson; and I have pleasure in saying, that not a single prisoner fell into the enemy's hands, except those who were disabled from wounds. From the report of some prisoners we have made, the enemy's force amounted to about six thousand men, with a very numerous train of artillery, having been augmented by a very large body of troops, which moved " down from fort Erie immediately be- fore the commencement of the action. Our own force, in regular troops, amounted to about fifteen hundred, exclusive of the militia and Indians, of which last description there were not above three hundred. Fort Erie, I understand, surrendered upon capitulation, on the ,3d instant. Although this affair was not attended with the suc- cess which I had hoped for, it will be highly gratify- ing to you to learn, that the officers and men behaved with great gallantry. P.

LONDON On Sunday the following Bulletin was exhibited at St. James's Palace, of the state of the King dat- ing the last month :—>' " Windsor Castle, August 6 " His Majesty's bodily health has been uninterrupted, and his mind uniformly tranquil through the last month ; but his-. Majesty's disorder continues without any sensible alteration." The Duke. of Cambridge, it is said, will proceed early next week to the Continent, to assume the government of Hanover, of which his Royal High- ness is Regent. His Royal Highness takes with him a suitable establishment, and will be ' accom- panied by General Bayley, Colonels Cooke and Benett, Captains Davidson and Jones, & c. One of the royal yachts is in preparation at Dep'. ford for his Royal Highness and suite. The determination of the Norwegians' to defend themselves against the Swedes is said to become daily more firm ; and they have procured consider able supplies of corn from various parts of th Continent. Three Norway regiments are reported to have declared publicly that they will neither give nor receive quarter. The additional articles to the Treaty between this country and Denmark have at length been concluded and exchanged between the Danish Minister and oar Government. They stipulate for the restoration to Denmark of St. Croix, and the other islands in the West Indies, formerly belong- ing to that power. It is stated in an article, dated Denmark, July 20, that when the Commissioners of the Allied Powers made their proposals to Prince Christian, his Royal Highness conceived' the period of fifteen days, within which he was to make a declaration of sub- mission, as too short for that purpose; and there- fore he required time for consulting with the States of the kingdom, and proposed that in the interval an armistice by sea and land should be concluded, which proposal was rejected ; the Commissioners conceiving that the real object of his Royal High- ness was to gain time, and obtain admission for the entry into the Norwegian ports of vessels laden with grain and provisions. The King of Denmark had written to the Prince, revoking his powers. The Allied Commissioners had returned to Gotten- burgh. The Emperor of Austria, it appears, was re- ceived with much loyalty and affection by his subjects 011 his return to his own dominions.— Unbounded demonstrations of popular joy took place on his entering Vienna, and all the doors of the Palace were thrown open to the people by the Emperor's desire. The next day, to gratify the public, his Imperial Majesty made a grand entry into that capital, in a procession composed of the military, the Ministers of State, and the Imperial Family. Service at the Cathedral was performed by the Archbishop, who is eighty years of age, and was formerly his Majesty's preceptor. The venerable prelate, in approaching his Majesty, fell and wounded his head ; but recovering, expressed himself happy that he should be the last subject who should draw blood in his Majesty's cause. A grand gala followed on the subsequent day, from which the Emperor retired with a head- ache, occasioned by ft'L: ue. From a Proclamation of the Prince of Orange in the Dutch Papers, it appears that part, at least, if not the whole, of the low countries which France, when under the dominion of Bonaparte, annexed by her decrees, first to the indivisible territory of of the French Republic, and afterwards to what was styled the French Empire, is to be united to the States of Holland, and to pass under the do- minion of the Prince Sovereign of the Nether- lands. The Moniteur contains an account of the meet- ing of the Great Council of State, which took place 011 the 3d inst. and at which the King was present. The object of this grand ceremony was, first to take the oaths to the King, and afterwards to settle the various forms in which the Councillors of the king- dom were to deliberate on all its important concerns.' The effect of these proceeding's will be, as the Chancellor remarked in his speech to the Council, " to make the authority of the King loved and re- spected, without ever attempting to enlarge it; and to preserve his power, without ever attempting to increase it." The projet of a law with regard to the liberty of the press, proposed on the part of the King of France, early in the last month, the main object of which was to impose a previous censorship upon all these works of a size that were calculated for general reading, has met with a decisive negative from the Central Committee of the Chamber of Deputies to which it was ultimately referred. In the silting of the Chamber of Monday se'nnight, Mr. Raynouard made a Report from this Com- mittee, which occupies several columns of The Moniteur. The Report, strongly urges that the liberty of the pre « s is the best safeguard of the Constitution, the best security for civil liberty, and the only effectual means of maintaining the privi- leges of the people. References are largely made in it to the history and practice of England, for the purpose of shewing the advantages that have re- sulted from the liberty of the press, and it is for- cibly added, with several illustrations, that the liberty of the. press cannot exist, if a previous cen sorship is allowed. The triumph of truth, it is ob- served, cannot be insured, unless by means of the liberty of the press, and the report concludes by recommending the rejection of the projet. It is understood that three Commissioners from the King of Fiance, sent on a mission to reclaim the recognition of the Royal Authority, and the renewal of the ancient subordination to the mother country, left France for St. Domingo about a mouth since. These gentlemen, whose names are Messrs. Lavaisse, Medina, and Drayeman, came through England, and embarked 011 the 15th July, at Fal- mouth, for Kingston in Jamaica, whence they in- tend to open a communication with St. Domingo, and to proceed thither to complete their arrange- ments, if circumstances shall a afford hopes of their safety and success. The Directors of the Hamburgh Bank are stated to have received assurances from General Girard, that the French Government would make good the loss its funds sustained by the robbery of Davoust. By an official note from the Swedish Consul at Algiers, dated 4th of July, it appears, that the Dey had liberated all the detained Swedish ships, and declared that he has 110 wish to go to war with Sweden; his only object being to have security for the arrival of the present ships, which, according to certain information, had reached Malaga on the 7th of July, and sailed on the 9th for their desti- nation. Napoleon has not, it would appear, given up all hope of return : one of the Generals who accom- panied him, asked him if he entertained any such thought, and he answered, " Louis XVIIl. lived twenty- two years in a foreign land." A report is in circulation, that some pirates of the Barbary Powers, attracted by the riches, real or supposed, which have been transported to Elba, made a descent upon that island to the number of some hundreds. They expected to surprise the inhabitants and seize their wealth, but the latter were on their guard, and the assailants were re- pulsed with considerable loss. Marshal B'ucher having- arrived 011 the 21th ult. at Brunswick, and alighted at the Hotel of England, so great was the anxiety of the populace to see the hero, that they mounted up to the windows by means of ladders. The King of Prussia has dis- pensed with the farther services of the Marshal, that he may be enabled to enjoy the remainder of his life in retirement. The pillar erected in Place Vendome is of brass, made of the Cannon which Bonaparte captured in his campaigns. When the people took down his> statue, a deputation waited on Alexander, request- ing that he would permit a statue of himself to be Lord Gambier and the other Commissioners ap- poointed to treat with the American Commissioners at Ghent embarked on Friday at Dover for Ostend, * The negociations at Ghent between the British and American Commissioners will open upon a very different basis from that which it was gene- rally, and indeed, justly, supposed would have been the case. The fact has been long ascertained, that although the American Ministers professed them- selves ready, and were extremely eager to commence negociations, they were not provided with instruc- tions sufficiently comprehensive to embrace all the leading points in dispute. Their instructions were also of an old date, and required much alteration and enlargement, to render them suitable to the many important events which have since occurred. These difficulties have, however, been very recently removed; for both Mr. Crawford, the Minister of the United States at Paris, and the Commissioners at Ghent, received in the early part of last week, direct from Washington, new and full instructions. They were brought to L'Orient by the French fri- gate which sailed from that port iu May, to convey to M. Serrurier, the French Minister in America, intelligence of the complete change which had taken place in the affairs and Government of France. The same vessel has been the bearer of fresh credentials to Mr. Crawford, as Plenipoten- tiary to Louis XVIII. The accounts from Paris which communicate this information, add, that the high tone of the American Government is con- siderably lowered, and that every possible sacrifice will be made by Persident Madison for the re- esta- blishment of Peace. The Fanny, arrived with two other ships at Poole, on Sunday, from Cherbourgh, which she left on Saturday night, brings a report, that through the whole of Saturday Cherbourg was in the greatest confusion, owing to an Act of State, per- mitting the free exportation of corn, A person named Bobbins, having, made large purchases for shipment to this country, the people rose, and pro- ceeded to acts of extreme violence. Regiments of soldiers had been called out before the Fanny sailed, to quell the riot, but it was quite ineffectual; the riot continued when the ships sailed.' A letter from Portsmouth has the following paragraph, 011 the subject of the commotions at Cherburgh, on the occasion of the exportation of provisions:—" We regret, to mention the excess of the. popular feeling against this country, which has been at all times manifest among the lower classes of the French nation, burst forth with con- siderable violence 011 Saturday evening at Cher- burgh, 011 the occasion of some vessels being about to depart for this port. A report was spread that the vessels contained grain, and on that supposition the canaille broke aboard, and finding nothing but sheep and horned cattle, they ill- treated the crews; and hoisted the sheep on shore again, with the most considerable number of the cows. The mili- tary then interfered, and suppressed the rising feelings of the momentarily increasing mob, which resounded with cries of " Vive I' Empereur." The Falcon, Brighton packet, was also boarded, and Stripped in the same tumultuous manner." Earl Talbot, who has recently paid a visit to Louis XVIII. was robbed of his travelling trunk, containing wearing apparel, & c. 011 his way from Paris to Calais. The trunk was cut from his Lordship's carriage in the night. Tuesday morning, at seven o'clock, four com- panies of the Coldstream Regiment of Foot. Guards marched from the Birdcage Walk, St. James's Park, to join the other six companies at Antwerp.— The same morning four companies of the 3d Bat- talion of the First Regiment of Foot Guards, arrived in Hyde Park, by Brentford, from France, where the Duke of York attended to inspect them. They gave, his Royal Highness three cheers, and the Royal Duke- ordered each man a pot of porter, which was distributed to them by the Pay Serjeant at different public- houses in the neighbourhood. Four companies of the 1st Battalion of the First Regiment of Foot Guards, arrived soon after in the Birdcage Walk, St. James's Park, by Kingston, from France. The Duke of York also inspected them, and ordered them a pot of porter each man, of which they partook in the public- houses in the neighbourhood; they also gave the Duke three cheers. O11 Saturday evening, at her father's house in Saville- row, Emily Harriet, second daughter Of the Right Honourable William Wellesley Pole, and niece to the Marquis Wellesley and Duke of Wel- lington, was married to the Right Honourable Lord Fitzroy Somerset, youngest brother of the Duke of Beaufort. The ceremony was performed by the Honourable and Rev. Gerald Wellesley. SUDDEN DEATH.— On- Friday night Lord Man ners, Chancellor of Ireland, and Lady Manners, dined wit ha select party at the Earl of Westmor- land's, in Grosvenor- square. After dinner, Lord and Lady Manners retired in their carriage, to their lodging at Thomas's Hotel, Berkeley- square, On entering into the drawing- room, her Ladyship ordered a bottle of soda water, which she drank and retired to her bed- room ; as soon as she reach the side of her bed her Ladyship dropped down and instantly expired. Her Ladyship was observed to make a very hearty dinner, and seemed apparently in high health and spirits. His Lordship is in consolabie for his loss. placed there. His answer was, looking up at the monument, " that it was too high for him to ucuut; be should be afraid of falling down.'* We have the satisfaction to announce the safe arrival of the China and India fleet. The China fleet left Canton the 1st March, under convoy of his Majesty's ship Phoenix, and rounded the Cape the 10th May, and arrived at St. Helena on the 20th. The India fleet left Bengal the beginning of January, and Point de Galle the 2d March. Both fleets left St. Helena the 2d June, under con- voy of his Majesty's ships Clorinde, Phoenix, Se> miramis, and Procris sloop of war. Off' the West- ern Isles, they fell in with two American privateers, which the ships of war chased, but were unable to come up with them. The following have also ar- rived from the Cape:— Preston, Oxford, Baring, and Coromandel transports; and the Dundee brig, and Hope, of London. We understand that the quantity of tea brought by the China fleet amounts to 22,000,000 pounds weight. The Benson transport, one of the convoy arrived at Portsmouth from Halifax, had 200 American prisoners 011 board. On the 19th ult. being on the Great Bank of Newfoundland, the Americans sur- prised the sentinels, and gained possession of the Benson's deck. Mr. Mayne, late Master of the Orpheus ( invalided home), being awoke by the noise, instantly jumped upon deck, when he found that the Americans had possession of the arms of the sentinels, whom they had forced below. He was attacked on every side, and fought his way among them most gallantly, with his cutlass ; but having his hand shot off, a large sabre incision made in the back part of his head, a shot wound in his thigh, and several other dangerous wounds, he fell, stunned and overpowered. During this time, the struggle was general throughout the ship, and it was only by dint of great personal gallantry 011 the part of the marines invalids, and the crew of the Benson that, after fifteen minutes contest the Americans were driven off the deck. In the course of the day, the Goliath took the ringleaders out. Eight of the Americans were killed. All the Englishmen on board were more or less wound- Mr. Croggett, late surgeon of the Plantagenet, amputated Mr. Mayne's arm, and that gallant officer, we are happy to hear, is doing well. The schooner Mary, of Southampton, Thomas Tucker, master, 011 her passage from Trieste to Bremen, with a cargo consisting of oil, raisins, and currants, was captured on the 22d of June, by the Harpy American privateeer, of 10 guns, and 110 men, close in with the Burlings, near Lisbon: after being seven days in the possession of the enemy, the master, with the assistance of Charles Ducks, his apprentice, being the only part of the crew left on board, rose upon the Americans, six in number, whom they completely mastered, killing the prize- master and one seaman, severely wounding a third and driving the rest down below, whom they there secured. They afterwards bore away for the Azores, and arrived at St. Michael's the 5th of July, much exhausted, from constant fatigue and privation of sleep. The four surviving Americans were delivered to their Vice Consul, and from their declaration before the Corregidor of that island, the two deceased, and particularly the prize- master, were men of uncommon strength and size, and therefore, the attempt of the master, assisted by his apprentice only, to regain the com- mand of his vessel," was the more meritorious, from the superiority, as well in bodily strength, as in numbers of the enemy. The celebrated veteran aeronaut, Garnerin, is arrived in town, and shortly intends to astonish the inhabitants of the metropolis by a novel mode of ascension: he is to ascend at night, in a balloon most brilliantly illuminated. Madame Garnerin is to ascend in the day time, and to descend in a , parachute. A CURIOUS CASE.— In 1806, the parish church of St. John, Horsleydown, was broke open, and the communion plate, amongst which were two beadles' staves, one having a silver mitre, the other a silver crown at the top, were stolen. Suspicion however, never attached so strongly to any person as to cause their apprehension, though the parish offered a reward at the time. On Wednesday, however, a young woman, who resides in Kent- street, appeared before Mr. Birnie, it the Police Office, Union- street, and charged her uncle, a tradesman in the Borough, who at the time of the robbery resided in Parish- street, with being con- cerned in it. The young woman stated the fol- lowing circumstances :— At the time of the robbery she was about fifteen, and lived with her uncle ; she recollected coming home one morning in August, eight years ago, from an errand, and going into the room where her uncle and aunt were, rather suddenly, she was surprised at seeing something lying on the table, covered over with a table cloth ; she went up to look what it was, and taking up the corner of the cloth, she saw two short staves, at the top of which Were, what appeared to her to be two silver crowns ; her uncle observing her, pulled her away, and told her if ever she men- tioned what she had seen, it would hang him, and made her promise never to mention it to any one. Soon after she was sent out 011 an errand to Dept- ford, and did not return till evening, when her uncle was out ; and her cousin, a child, said his father was gone out in a coach, and had taken all the pretty things with him. Soon after her uncle came home, and pulling out a handful of notes, said to his wife, " See, my girl, I have got money now." The witness had heard of the robbery 011 her return from Deptford, and immediately sus- pected the plate she saw in the morning was the church plate. She knew well that her uncle would at that time purchase any thing that was brought to him, provided he could get any thing by it. In the course of that morning she saw a man named Roach, since transported, and who was at the time suspected of the robbery, and another man whom he named, talking with her uncle ; she heard them mention the name of the old Sexton of St. John's, and one of them said, they served him out well ; he was in the " belfry when the robbers entered the Church, and being discovered, was severely beaten by them; she had kept the secret, till a few days ago, when her uncle having appeared as a witness against her in an assault case, she told her husband the circumstance; her husband told another person, who gave informa- tion to a constable, and she had been obliged to come forward, which she should not have done but for that circumstance ; she confessed it was anger which induced her to tell her husband. The uncle denied the truth of his niece's state- ment altogether, and said it all arose out of a spirit, of revenge, because he had appeared against her. Mr. Birnie observed, that by the declaration of the young woman, it appeared she had come, for- ward in anger to make this disclosure ; he there- fore would not detain the defendant on her state- ment uncorroborated. As the defendant was in a condition of life in which he might at any time be found, he would take his word for his appearance on another day, which the worthy Magistrate named, and observed, that in the mean time he should take care to have some other persons who had been named present. Dispatches received from Barbadoes, - dated the : 30th of June, auniWnce the Safe arrival of Sir James Leith, the new Commander of the forces in the West Indies. The Right Hon. Wm. Huskisson, who vacated his seat in consequence of having accepted the office of First Commissioner of his Majesty's Woods, Forests, and Land Revnues, was, on Mon- day, unanimously re- elected for the City of Chi- chester. A Claterpark, Esq. and Dr. Matthews, of Belmont, both in the county of Hereford, have, in conse- quence of the reduced prices of grain of all descrip- tions, lowered the rents of their estates one- third, An Irish newspaper states, that Lord Powers- court has considerably diminished the rents of his tenantry, and thereby reduced his own income 1,5001. per year. Last week there was found in the Earl of Egllng* ton's lime quarry of Coalhill, about three miles from the town of Ardrossan, and far above the level of the sea, a petrified eel, measuring three feet in length. Friday, as Mrs. Handley, of Monmouth- street, upwards of eighty years of age, was sitting before the fire, the flames caught her clothes, by which the was so shockingly burnt, that she was taken to the hospital without hopes of recovery. The hottest day that has been hitherto experi- enced this year, was July 28; the thermometer then stood at 92, a height to which it has not risen since July 13, 1808. Monday evening, one of the light- fingered gentry was caught picking the pocket of the landlord of the Wellington- booth, in Jubilee Fair. A tobacco box, in which were ten 11. notes, was found in his possession, which was immediately claimed by a sailor, as having been stolen from him about an hour before. This so' exasperated the mob, that they determined on putting him into a sack, and dragged him to the Serpentine, into which they threw him, and hauled him backwards and forwards till he was almost exhausted. The same evening, a woman attempted to bathe in the river, in the presence of some hundreds of men, and had actually stripped to do so, When several females rushed in, and took her away by main force. wm Mr. * IMITATIONS.— After so many years hostility, it is pleasing to find that the people of France wish to imitate this nation in various matters. Among other things, a writer in a French paper strongly recommends it to his Government to abolish the existing system of Lotteries, and to adopt the English plan, the advantages of which to the public he ably points out; and, as a particular example, dwells upon the many excellencies of that to begin drawing on the 1st of September, in which Capitals are great 2nd numerous— Tickets cheaper than for years past— and the lowest Prize exceeds the cost of a Ticket. EXTRAORDINARY LONGEVITY.— Two persons lately died in Russia, one said to be at the age of 180, and another between 200 and 205, the latter being nearly forty years older than our famous Jenkins, who died at the age of 169. In the morning of Wednesday se'nnight, an in- teresting- looking young female threw herself into the New River, at Islington, and was drowned, before any assistance could be rendered her. The body was afterwards entangled in a net, and con- veyed to the receiving- house, where the means recommended by the Humane Society were re- soited to, but unfeitunately without effect. ATTKMPT AT SUICIDE.— Friday morning a re- spectable tradesman of the Jewish persuasion, at- tempted to put a period to his existence at the Bell public- house, Falcon- court, in the Borough. He had, it appeared, been at the celebration of a Jewish wedding at Kennington, on the preceding evening, where, in consequence of some dispute, he had been given in charge to Glennon the officer of Union Hall, who, at the prisoner's resquest, took him to the Bell for the night, rather than to the watch- house. After he had been there, however, for a short time, he became so disorderly, and riotous, that Wortleys the landlord, was obliged to call in the watch, and send him to the watch- house, where he remained till near four o'clock in the morning, when having become more peaceable, he requested to be taken back to the Bell. His re- quest was complied with, and the landlord was / roused from his bed to take him in.' He was con- ducted to a chamber, but he had not been long ; there when he made so much noise with singing: and dancing, that he roused the whole house. Wortley in consequence, got up, and went to desire him to be quiet. Previous to his reaching the pri^ soner's room he was silent, but Wortley fortunate!; persevered in going into the room, for on opening the door he discovered the prisoner suspended with a silk handkerchief from a peg in the wall, and < apparently lifeless. He immediately cut him down, and sent for a surgeon, but sometime elapsed be- fore suspended animation was restored. When, however, the unfortunate man recovered the use of his speech, he appeared perfectly composed, and expressed his gratitude to his preservers in the strongest terms. He declared himself utterly at a loss to account for his rash conduct, except, that it had its origin in a fit of jealousy, occasioned by his wife having gone to the wedding without him, and in company with another man. VACCINATION IN FRANCE.— Every friend to human happiness must feel pleasure in contem- plating the efforts which benevolent men have made in all countries to annihilate one of the greatest pests that have been, known in modern Europe;, and what must be the sensations of Englishmen when they reflect, that the incalculable blessing which has already been diffused to so vast and wonderful an extent over the world, was dis- covered by one of themselves! It would scarcely be credited, were it not stated on the authority of persons who can have no interest in deceiving the world on such' a subject, that 110 fewer than three millions thirty- five thousand seven hundred and sixty- five persons in France alone, have already been saved from the infection of the small- pox by Vaccine Inoculation. The Moniteur of the 31st contains a long re port of a meeting ' held 011 the 16th July by the Central Vaccine Society of Paris, at which the Baron De Chabrol presided in the absence of the Minister of the Interior. After he had addressed the Meeting, M. Judelot, President of the Central Committee, declared, that the results of vaccina- tion in France, during the last year, surpassed those of any preceding ones. " It is now proved," said he, " by the correspondence of the Prefects with the Minister of the Interior, that great contagions of the small- pox have ceased, that the general mor- tality is diminished, and that the population has considerably augmented in the departments, in pro- portion to the more general employment of the preservative. The Committee conceives that it has now approached much nearer to the object to- wards which it has been anxiously tending for 14 years, and the prospect of which, more or less distant, has invariably stimulated its efforts. TW^ object is the total extinction of the small- pox in France." CURIOUS FACT IN THE HISTORY OF SMALL.- Pox.— In a parish of Galloway, about forty year* ago, a young man died of the small- pox. Nine years alter, a sister of his died, and was interred in the very same spot. Among other fragments of his body, which had been dug up, there was a part of the scalp, which appeared very fresh, and ex- hibited the marks of the small- pox. Curiosity ex- cited some of the people at the funeral to take it up and examine it. One person, who did so, was then upwards of 20 years of age, and never had had the small- pox. On the 10th or 11th day after the funeral, he became sick, and an eruption of small- pox appeared, which continued for some time, but was very mild. A brother and sister took them immediately after, and from them they spread over the country. Inquiry was made, and at that time there was no small- pox within 30 or 40 miles. THE COLCHESTER GAZETTE. The Gazette of Tuesday contains the official de- tails of a fresh irruption of a large body of Ameri- can troops into Upper Canada, by the Niagara frontier. This operation, we are under the painful necessity of stating, was attended with disastrous consequences to our army, though it does not appear that the Americans have gained any con- siderable advantages thereby. Their success is by ho means ascribable to military talent or personal bravery, on the part of their officers, but was en- tirely the result of a great superiority in numbers. It appears, that on the 3d ult. the Americans landed a considerable force on the Niagara frontier, and 01 the 5th, were opposed by a small British force, under the command of Major General Riall, which, after gallantly sustaining the honour of the British arms, was compelled to retire with con- siderable loss. A number of officers, among whom are the Marquis of Tweedale and Lieut.- Colonel Gordon, were wounded. The whole of the British force engaged did not exceed 1500 men ; the American army amounted to about 6000. The severity of the action may- be estimated by the loss sustained on our part— upwards of five hundred being cither killed or wounded. The attempt thus made to penetrate into the Canadian territory, shows more than usual activity in the policy of the American Government, which has, no doubt, found it necessary to endeavour to re- establish its fallen and degraded reputation by some extraordinary effort. Private letters state, that all the best disciplined troops of the United States had been for a long time collecting, and inarched off in the direction of the Niagara frontier. It is stated that Fort Erie surrendered to the Americans by capitulation, previously to the battle; but as no mention is made of the garrison, there is reason 16 apprehend the body of men of which it was composed became prisoners. The American coasts and waters are kept in a constant state of terror by the enterprising spirit of our fleets and cruizers, which sweep the shores and destroy the shipping in every accessible point. The American Government has issued a Procla- mation, the object of which is similar to that of the Proclamation published by the Government of this country. It recalls all American subjects re- sident here. POSTSCRIPT. Letters have been received from Spain, and from the Pyi en- an frontiers of France to the end of July, mentioning circumstances that will produce some surprize. It is alleged on respectable authority that Charles IV. declared, that the act of abdication published, by which lie was supposed to have va- cated the throne of his ancestors, is an atrocious forgery, and that he considers the claims of his son Ferdinand nugatory, reserving to himself all the sacred rights of King of Spain and the Indies. It is said in the same communications that his Majesty is supported in these pretensions by his relation the King of Sicily, and by his Holiness the Pope. Their support would have little weight to turn the balance of the scale, but it is added that Louis XVIII. has shewn an interest in his favour, and lias intimated his readiness by any fit and pacific means to maintain his rights. It is remark- able that M. Labrador, who came to Paris with the view to be acknowledged as Ambassador from the Court of Madrid, has not' yet been permitted to deliver his credentials in that character. Intelligence from Barcelona, by the way of Paris, states, that the equipage of King Charles had reached the former place ; and the prevalent opi- nion in France certainly was, that the Ex- King had entered Spain with the intention of laying claim to the Crown of that kingdom. An Evening Paper states the leading particulars of what passed in the recent interview between the Commissioners of the Allied Sovereigns and the young King of Norway. The Commissioners en- deavoured strongly to impress his Majesty with a sense of the mischiefs which would be brought upon the Norwegian people, by compelling the Allied Powers to enforce the submission to Sweden, in conformity with their engagements; and upon this principle they put it to his Majesty to with- draw his guidance and countenance, and to recom- mend the people to submit. The King declared, that " so far as he was personally concerned, the Norwegians neither had, nor should have, any rea- son to reproach him for involving them in danger through ambitious or interested motives; that he was ready again to assemble the Representatives of the nation, and to submit for their judgment and decision all that had been urged by the Commis- sioners. But that if their decision should be to persevere in asserting their independence, he was resolved to adhere with inviolable faith and perse- verance to the duties imposed by the obligations by which he had bound himself." On Thursday forenoon his Royal Highness the Duke de Berri arrived in London. His Highness had an audience of the Prince Regent the same afternoon, about five o'clock, at Carlton House, on his arrival in England. The Duke of Wellington is now on his way to Paris, where his Grace expects to arrive on the 20th inst. He proceeds by way of Ostend, Ant- werp, and Brussels. The Duchess of Wellington, in a travelling cha- riot and six, and attended by some of the Royal Horse Guards ( blue), left town on Thursday morn- On Tuesday afternoon, at about half past four o'clock, her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales arrived at the Steyne Hotel, at Worthing, for the purpose of embarking on board the Jason frigate, which had lain off' Worthing since Saturday, to receive her. She was accompanied by Lady Char- lotte Lindsey, and a young boy, patronized by her Royal Highness. Soon after six she went on board, immediately on which the royal standard was hoisted. On proceeding in the barge towards the frigate, her Royal Highness repeatedly kissed her hand to the female spectators, who in return waved their handkerchiefs. The Jason sailed about seven o'clock in the evening. Numbers in carriages, on horseback, and on foot Came from Worthing and the vicinity to see the Princess de- part. Among the baggage a large tin case was re marked, on which was inscribed " her Royal High- ness the Princess of Wales— to be always with her." It is understood that the Jason was to laud her Royal Highness at Cuxhaven. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent held a Chapter of the Order of the Garter on Wednesday at which Ferdinand VII. King of Spain, and his Royal Highness William Frederick, Prince of Orange and Nassau, Prince Sovereign of the Ne- therlands, were elected Knights of the Order, On Wednesday morning Sir Isaac Heard, Garter King at Arms, left Loudon to execute the Sove- reign's commission, for investing the Emperor of Austria, at Vienna, with the insignias and habit of the Order of the Garter. Sir Isaac is accompanied by the Windsor Herald of Anns, and the Gentle man Usher of the Order of the Bath, as Secretary to the Commission, He is attended by a King's Messenger, and proceeds to the capital of Austria, by way of Brussels, where he is first to perform, jointly with Lord Castlereagh, the ceremony of investing the Prince Sovereign of the Netherlands ing for Dover, on her way Jo Paris. A great number of transports have been hired by Government, for the purpose of conveying a large force to America, under the command of Lord Hill. Ilis Lordship, it is said, will sail ou the 1st of next month from the Cove of Cork, whore three companies of artillery, under the com mand of Lieut.- Colonel Dickson and Majors Monro and Jones, together with a great part of the expe- dition, will be in readiness to sail. An embarkation of 14,000 men, according to a letter from Portsmouth, is to take place at that port in less than fourteen days. The 14th dra- goons, and some other regiments of cavalry, are to be sent out. Mr. Brackenbury, whose mission from Bordeaux to Paris we mentioned some time ago, has, we are happy to say, succeeded in procuring the repeal of the very severe tarif levied by the French Govern- ment, after British goods had been consigned upon the faith of a more moderate impost. This was a business of great delicacy. The French Minister has, however, been induced to confirm the tarif of the Duke D'Angouleme, imposing much inferior duties, in every instance except that of British manufactures, whereon our merchants are to re- ceive freight out and home, and five per cent, upon the invoice price, by way of indemnity. We have the satisfaction to state, that a Procla- mation has been published at: Malta, in which it is declared, that, for upwards of 203 days, the fatal effects of the plague had disappeared, and, in con- A detachment from the 2d battalion of the 4tli or King's Own Regiment, consisting of 150 men, marched from the barracks here on Tuesday morn- ing, under the command of Captain Jameison, on the route for Peters, field, in order to embark at Portsmouth with the next reinforcement of troops for America, Winter Barley, as a cattle food, is getting into high repute, from the great success of various per- sons within the last two or three years. It is the most certain and productive of all our winter green crops, and perhaps the best calculated for sheep and lambs; for after supporting them until late in April, it is shut up, and gives a crop of the best malting Barley. Winter Barley may be sown in a showery time from July to the end of September.— Bath Citron. Wednesday se'nnight as Mr. Minot, of Fordham, was passing through Mildenhall on his way to Brandon, in a gig, he suffered the horse to drink at the river near the bridge, when the animal being very thirsty, pressed so strongly on the reins that he could not restrain him, and at length plunged himself and the carriage into a deep hole, from which Mr. Minot was in a few minutes happily rescued, and conveyed to the Ship Inn, after having sunk twice, and was, by some exertions, perfectly recovered ; but the horse and gig remained under water above a quarter of an hour before discovered, and on being brought ashore, the horse, valued at 501. was quite dead. At the Suffolk Assizes, two prisoners were capi- tally convicted, viz. Thomas Wright, for stealing a black mare, the property of John Wood, butcher, of Lowestoft; and George Maulkin, for bestiality. — The former was reprieved, but the latter left for execution at Bury. William Felton, for stealing a watch, from Wm. March, of Melford, was sentenced to be transported for seven years.— At the same Assizes a cause was tried on an indictment against the Overseers of Great Thurlow, for disobeyed an order of two Magistrates, relative to the relief they had directed to be given to a pauper. This was an entire new case on the poor laws, and of consi- derable importance to parish officers in general. The chief point in dispute was, whether the Magis- trates can oblige parish officers to relieve a person working out of the parish to which he belongs, after their having tendered him more money per week to work in his own parish than the Magis- trates have decided to be necessary to maintain himself and family. The facts are these:— A man of the name of Cockerton, belonging to Great Thurlow, worked in Little Thurlow, and being re- fused relief by the former parish, he complained to the Magistrates, who having calculated that 14s. a week was necessary to support him and his family, and having set his earnings at 0s. per week, ordered the parish officers to pay him the remaining 5s. Great Thurlow wanting labourers, tendered the pauper 17s. per week to work at home; this the man refused, because he in fact earned 13s. a week in Little Thurlow ( although the Magistrates rated his earnings at Os. only) which, with the 5s. added, made 18s. per week. The parish officers, conceiving themselves imposed upon by the man, refused him the relief ordered, in consequence of which this indictment was preferred. A verdict of guilty ( with nominal damages) was entered against the defendants, subject to a case to be stated to the Court of King's Bench. At Cambridge Assizes, William Pollard, a boy only fifteen years of age, was found guilty of setting fire to a bouse at Sawston, in the occupation of John Matthews, his uncle. The. prisoner, it ap- peared, confessed his crime to another boy, and when examined before a Magistrate, said that his uncle came to him in the field where he was working, and made a noise at him for being idle, when it came into his head to set the place on fire, which he did by placing a piece of burning turf close to the thatch. The reason he confessed was, that another person Was suspected, and examined about it, and he was unwilling that person should be punished. lie was sentenced to be executed, but afterwards reprieved.— Henry Kidman, who pleaded guilty to a fraud, in obtaining twelve knives and twelve forks, and a hedging bill, from Messrs C. Finch and Son, under pretence of being sent by Mr. Milner, in whose service he formerly lived; and William Butcher, for having received and converted to his own use the sum of two pounds, the property of his master, S. Bullock, baker, of Cambridge, were both sentenced to be publicly whipped for the space of fifty yards in Cambridge market- place.— William Thurlow, for robbing a fellow servant, by taking money out of his box, „ i- was sentenced to six months imprisonment.

The giving up of Tyrol by Bavaria has been executed very peaceably; but the new Governor having enjoined all the inhabitants, from 18 to 60 years of age, to enrol their names for the militia, some disorders arose in consequence, which in- duced the Government to recal this order, not to irritate its new subjects, who have been at all times of a restless disposition. Accounts were received on Wednesday at Lord Bathurst's office, state the complete success of an expedition fitted out at Bermuda against the Ame- rican Islands, in Passamaquoddy Bay, The Islands were taken possession of by the British force, and a quantity of American shipping was entirely destroyed.

The Prince Royal of Sweden lias, during the whole of I be dSspa'e respecting Norway, evinced ail extraordinary anxiety to avoid every thing like a - hostile attack upon the people of that Country. He lately addressed to t- hein a Proclamation, in which he endeavours to shew that Nature intewded they should be united with the Swedes; that such au union would greatly promote their interests; and he enumerates the many advantageous equivalents • which Denmark has gained in consideration of Laving given up Norway. That our Headers may form an estimate of the mode of reasoning this • « ale document pursues, it is subjoined. PROCLAMATlON OF THE ' PRINCE ROYAL OF SWEDEN TO THE NORWEGIANS. Norwegians'— Destined by nature to an union " with the Swedish nation, your fate was decided w hen the King of Denmark ceded to Sweden, by the peace ef Kiel, his rights over Norway. The advantages which your old Sovereign derived from that peace are known to you. He obtained, itntoi dfateiy after its signature, the evacuation of the Duchies of Schies- vig and Holstein the restoration of the fortresses of Gluckstadt and fredericsort, an acknowledgment of the Sound duties, the giving up of more than twelve • millions of contributions imposed 011 the Duchies, the, renunciation of an tqual sum for captures made dur- in » itxvace; a Considerable sum in money, of Which $ urt lias been paid ; and ' finally, the promise of the cession of Pomerania, upon the surrender and occu- pation of the fortress of Kongswieger, Frederickshall, 4' rerierickstadt, and Aggerhuus. These' great sacrifices " were made to ' Denmark on'; l> ecaiiseshe promised that you would peaceably and •%- iftiout opposition acknowledge the authority of the King of Sweden ; and you w ill appreciate them, on reading , the treaties which united Sweden, Russia, England, Prussia, and Austria, against the common ienemy Norwegians! if in this age these treaties could be eluded by civilized nation?,. good faith would 110 longer exist upon earth. At the period when your Government furnished to France some thousands of seamen to man ships of war, Sweden perceived the kidispeittable necessity of ren- dering herself independent of the Continent; she', refused to bow before the idol of the day, and conti- dejitly relying on herself and 011 her constitutional laws,- she dared to involve tlrem in favour of her eliil- > DTX' 0,' and rejciti d the demand of an equai number of •• seamen,— she did more, she united herself, at a . period the ifcOit critical re. OTded in our annals, with a Mo- narch whose destruction Napoleon had sworn. She feels proud, however, in having anticipated the reso- lution of so many other nations. Norwegians! • sfiiall states are alw- aj's moved by the 4110i f powerful: ) tfu cannot form an insulated govern- ment; and the plan of the man who misleads you is to- unite one day the Crown of Norway to that of Denmark; but nature, in accordance w ith sound ftoiic. v, w ills that the Norwegians and the Swedes • hould be friends and brothers. It is also as brothers that the Swedes wish to live with you. Sweden and Norway • united,- and lending tat h other mutual sup- port, will priseut on every tide an impregnable front. Insulated and disunited, they will have evtr'y thing to fear, both fro'm thenftelVca and fttr. 11 Otliei'}:. Look at England,— that island, so famous, founded her pros- perity 011 a similar union. That of Norway to Sweden is guaranteed by the first Powers of the world. An cxpftittice of niafiv centti'rie* prove* that the divisions of the North always led to its ruin. This • idea had struck the great Gustavus. After having laid the foundation of the peace of Europe, and con- solidated the Protestant fams 4M* plan wa* to effect your union with Sweden : dealli put. an end to his de- tip!. lie consequences have been pernicious lo you. Norwegians! after the memorable tall'. e of Leipsic your interests must have told yen, that 3 our union with Sweden could « : « nc constitute je'ir happiness and establish ve^ ir security. The Great Powers wish this union. Ail of tiieni have rccognisui that it was time to put au end to the dissensions which must result from the reparation of the two nations. W ill you alone oppose the ctircral will? Will vou alone com- bat the Swedes and the Sovereigns w ho have guaran- teed your union with us? Their glory, their interests, the sanctity of treaties, in line, demand its aceowpiish- • uienti I come in the triMst of yen, V ith the hope that you Vill trt. it as brothers that brave army which 1 lead back from a campaign as glorious as astonishing. Neither this army, nor that which has been for a year stationed on your frontiers, desire laurels which must be tinged with jour blood. ' I he Swedes are, like you, members of the Scandinavian firtuily; and battles be- tween the tw o nations are equally repugnant to nature, to reason, and to Sound policy. Norwegians! sutler i. ot > our.> plves to bclipatcd by the instigations of the individuals Who have only their personal interests in view. Sacrifice not the wvlfarc of jour cocltry to the dcctitful illusions which they prtscnt to you. Open your- cjes to the dangers into Which a criminal nvhbition is precipitating you. bweden will not lay down her arms Until she has effected an union necessary tv> her safety and repose. You can prevent the calamities of war, W hich call only be advantageous to your seducers. Look forward to the futurity which awaits you, and to the glory and prosperity' which must ensue from au union of the two nations; Norwegians! rejcct, then, Sn influence and el- rors equally unworthy of you; let the national will speak, and ftx iti law* under the agis of au enlightened and beueficent Monarch! lie offers ybu, with the removal cf every semblance of war, independence, liberty, and the guarantee of all your privileges. Your fidelity shall be the pledge; his virtues - Lull be your se- curities. ITis ttndaunted spirit, his matchless . activity and J in'MHgeiice, recomuientkd him to his superiois ; 1 he first became a suhalter: i. then had the command ' if a^ pulk or regiment ; and'at length was, when our traveller saw him, the absolute Governor cf a district scarcely inferior in extent to the whole of England taken separately from Scotland and Wales. He hid several sons, all commanding at that time pulks of Cossacks; his daughter, who has since been more Celebrated than any of them, was at that time in the nursery. His manner of life was becoming his station at the head cf a race of war- riors, plain and modest, though not without a munber- of servants and dependants becoming his raii'.;. He professed himself very attentive to the ' improvement of the Cossack breed of horses, and had many hundred brood mares in iiis possession. He had also vast heffe of horned cattle and camels, and considerable vineyards, which comprised, " however, the jvhole extent of his agriculture. Iiis greatest splendour, when not at the head of his troops, was displayed in an elegant state- barge, which he used on the liver Don. lli? manners were singularly good- natured and affable to strangers; for the English MI ' particular he ex- pressed much esteem ; and ' in his questions re- specting their country, its constitution, ami mili- tary system, he displayed a knowledge on all these subjects greater than would be expected in one completely self- educated, and whose whole life had been passed in rettiote and active warfare. He was " Very particular in his inquiries as to the manner in " which English gentlemen passed their time, whether in attendance on the Court, like the ' Russian and most of the Continental Nobility, or on their own estates and iu rural occupations ? On being informed that the majority resided in the country, and were employed as. agriculturists and Magistrates, finding their chief recreation in the sjioits of the field— he answeied, locking at his own eldest son, who was. just returned from the fatal campaign of Austerlitz, where his regiment gnatly distinguished themselves—"' lhe sens of such men must needs nn- ke gocd soldiers." PRINCE PLATOFF. The M! n* itJg anecdotes of the venerable aud Valiant Platoff, Betmann of the Deti Cossacks, are supplied by a gentleman, who, eight years ago, wfci made per. oually known to him at ' ld. erbask, liiidvas entertained by him iu a cabin of legs, f. uiTMiiided by inan- lnt ai; d deserts', not with a magnificence indeed, ' cut with an hospitality not unworthy of England. " Maflei Ivanovitch Platoff, when a hoy, was employed, as our informant burnt frohi the widow of Cossack Major, who had known him through life, in the humble occupation of tending the herds of horse.-; ." hich graJe oil the vast plain round his native village. At the. breaking out of the Turkish war, he weut as a volunteer to Romanriff's army, at which time his pioperty consisted in his horsf-* a single Suit of clothe:-, aud his faithful lance. The Paris Papers giVe an account of the charges preferred - against Marshal Davoust, the late spo- liator of Hamburgh.-—' 1 he charges are:-— 1. Fur having 1' red at the white Hag, after having re- ceived- positive information of there- establishment of the Throne of the Bourhons. 2. For liavii g abstracted the funds from the Bank of Hamburgh: and— 3. For having conjfeittcd tyrannical acts, which had a tendency to render the French uameodious. T he first and tile last charges he " roundly denies, challenging the strictest scrutiny into. his conduct, lie maintains, in his Memoriul laid before the King, that he nev er abused the power confined to liim, and that not a single act of his government could be deemed arbitrary ; but that every thing was executed on his part in conformity to orders or decrees, the originals of which he has in his posses- sion. lie admits, indeed, that in the extensive com- matuls with which he was charged, he might have injured the interests of individuals, but never ren- dered the French name odious by any act of his own ; and that, in the arduous circumstances under w hich lie Was placed, the honour of trance, and the interest of the aimy, were invariably his guide. In answering the second charge, the stripping the Hamburgh Bank of its property, Davoust enters into minute details, and excuses himself by pit ailing the necessity of the case and the orders of his Government. He says, " The Coinmis- sionVVs who made the seizure were men ef raWk and known character, ' lliey made regular mi- nutes of every thing; the amount of pioperty m the Rank, and the branches of expenditure to Which it was applied, were carefully recorded.- The services to which those funds were applied consisted of the hospital department, subsistence aud pay of the French troops, and ol the civil ad- ministrations, and the continuation of the works of the artillery and engineer department— w oiks which have contributed to preserve 25,000 men t'o the Country. To insure the regularity of the appli- cation cf the money, 1 gave orders, that under lhe superintendence of M. Chaban, all the usual forms enjoined b. y th » ' Treasury should be observed, rc- sVrving \ o thyself the right of opening credits, ac- coidiiig to the demands made. All the payments made at Hamburgh may be Considered as made in the name and on the account of the Govern- ment, and it is for the Commissioners of Finance, who succeeded M. Chaban, to account for the employment of the funds seized in the Rank. Measures were taken to convert the bullion into the coin of the country, which was done in the most intelligent manner, and with the utmost pro bity. The Commissioners, whenever your Ma- jesty shall call 011 them, can give ah account of their Administration. When I was under the ne- cessity t'. f seizing on the Rank of Hamburgh, the debt due, including the month of November, ex- ceeded millions ; and when 1 was suspended in my cotniuand by the General of Division, Count Gerrard, a purt of the arrears was paid. I had tnet all the e\ peaces of the artillery arid engineers the pay was assigned to the 1st of June ; and 1 left in the military chest of the army, 1,716,254 francs which continued to be applied to the same uses, This summary frill give yeur Majesty an idea of the economy with which the employment of about 13 millions found in lhe Bank was regulated, de- dueling the sums belonging to the King of Lien- mark, aud the charitable, institutions ol the town Which were refunded by my orders." The following sensible remarks on the present state of French newspapers are extracted from the Journal des Debats:— " We still incet with many people, who, frnm habit, read otir Journals as they wore wont, and as they ouyht to I e read prior to the 31st of March. This is au erroB, against which it is the most important to guard the public, as it would prevent as from doing the gbod which we Wish to do, and cfleil even give us a 1 crnicious influence which we do not wish to pos- sess. I ' nder the late Gove rnmcnt, all that appeared in the public papers came from the I'oli< » ; there Was not a 11 article of i. ews, nor a political u fleet ion, which v> as not revised, altered, augmented, or perverted at the Police Office. TYc action of uuthuiitj on the Journals was a thiug notorious, aud manifest to all the world, They were therefore, with reason, considered as many official, or demi- official pub ieatvius, vv hich expressed merely the ideas and the views'of the Go- vcriisneut. In this way articles of news acquired great, import mice; because people endeavoured to ieftni from them the intentions of the oppressor of Europe; and articles of eulogy were insignificant, because their insertion was oftleted. At that time there Were no organs of piiUlte'fcpiuS'an, but only or- gans'of power. Now the case is altered. All that we publish in our journals is of our own selection. We point out the sources of our intelligence, and giv e it such as we find it in the foreign Gazettes,' v> r receive it from our correspondents: of course it must at tin its be erroneous, for our correspondents not being initiated into the secrets of Courts, cannot communicate to us W hat passes there except, from external appearances which are sometimes deceitful; but at the same time it is important to remark, that as our articles of in- telligence do not come frotu Government, they cannot be ascribed to it, nor become for it a subject of dip'o- inatic bickerings. This is sufficiently proved by it. e example of England, whe'. e the Government is at 110 time responsible for what appears in the journals. Our reflections are those of literary men, who speal according to their consciences and their means of ob- servation. We speak freely what v\ e think, either 011 a plan of law presented by the Ministers, or on pro- positions made in the Chamber of Deputies. It is in the freedom of the journals that the liberty of the • press chicfly consists— that wise and useful liberty which the King has proclaimed as the basis « t" a li- beral Constitution, f rom it there is no inconvenience to be found ; nothing but advantage, to be hoped. A journal must not be confounded with an ephemeral pamphlet, which has Only the printer's uainc as a gua- rantee, and of which the true author may always re- main unknown. The guarantee afl'orded by journals results from their fixed and- permanent establishment, though their sheets are fugitive. The proprietors and editors are all men well known, both to the Govern- ment and the Public. They are always ready to tiiitvcr for the articles which they insert.'' - At Stafford- Assizes, a workiiig man, of the'hnme of Bryan, was found guilty cf fiiurdcrir. g his wile t Bilston, in consequence of jealousy. He had been drinking for a day or two, and was considet- - ubLy in liquor when he committed the murder, immediately previous to which he was Observed to very restless tnid mailt agitated. \\ h< 11 his wife came into- his Ttlcriu they htrd a little scuffle be EXTRAORDINARY ATTAINMENT.— A public exercise, V> I'm h surprised as well as interested the spectators, took place oil the 2< jth iWt. at the institution Royale des Quinze- Ving's, at" Paris :— ' lhe young blliiU pupils composed, as tiny are accustomed to do, sentences with characters in relief; they read hud wrote; they also explained Several passages in Virgil; resolved vei'y difficult, problems in Algebra; aud replied in a tnost satis- factory manntVtO questions in Geography, point- ing out on the niups the places they described, ' lhe music, which was occasionally performed, was so well executed, that the most celebrated masters of the capital, who attended the meeting, gave it their applause. ' I he exercise Was closed by the reading- of all Ode to the King, composed ly one of the blind. Rut afterwards an unexpected, pro- digy occurred, namely, an example, lor the first time given, of an immediate communication be- tween lhe deaf and'dumb and the blind. ' Ihese two classes of beifigs, who seeined for ever sepa- rated, are now approximated, and may be made to understand each other, ' ibis invaluable inven- tion does infinite honour to its author. Some phrases were dictated. 0' ie of the blind imme- diately comprehended by the touch the representa- tive signs ot ( he phrases which the dumb pupil ad- dressed to liitn, and repealed them in a loud Voice to the assefflbly. The deaf and dumb pupil, in his turn, watched the signs made to Wtu by the blind youth, and wrote down ttee precise words which had bten dictated to the latter. HORRID MURDER.— A murder of a riiost atro- cious nature was perpetrated at twelve o'clock, 011 the night of ' Thursday se'nnight, at the house ol Miss Mary Macey, dress- maker, No. 27, Mount- street, OH the person of Miss Mary Ann Welch- man, a young lady of respectable parents in Somer- setshire, by an assassin cf the W'. ne of James Smith Mitchell, alias James Mitchell Smith, alias Owen Smith. ' Ihis man, who iiist introduced himself to the young lady by holding an umbrella over her on a wet evening, afterwards visited her at her residence, as the purser of an East Indiaman, but lie was subsequently found to be 110 other pcr- so*. i than a servant out of place. ' 1 he unfortunate deceased, on ascertaining this fact, had refused to admit of his company any longer, and she had ow, 1 requested hiin olten to decline. his visits-. . , .. „ „ . , On Friday afternoon A. t& U, Esq. Coroner for which other persons present supposed Was only in: Westminster, held an inquest at the Barley M good humour, as they had lived many years happily » , .., L ,, 1 together, and appeared then to be reinaikably good liiends. The wife's scream gave the first • alarm. She fell, and it was discovered s'he had. been wounded in the thig'h by a large sharp knife w hich she herself had kept. She bled to death Without, speaking, ' lhe husband sat down sullenly over the fire- place, took no interest in what passed, and did not answer any questions whiili his neighbours put to hiin ; but to the sittrg. on, who asked him what made him murder nis wife, he answered ' Jealousy." He then tcld him, it \ vould be necessary to send for a constable to take him ' into custody, to which he made no reply. At the same Assizes, John Maden, aged 51, was tried for murdering his wife, at Betley. They had many years lived happily together, but on tile fatal evening they had hail words, and the prisoner being passionate, threatened, if his w ile did not hold her tongue, to hit her with one of friVcruuhes she. used. He gave her a tap, as tie said. The b^ o< v was 011 thetemplo, aiid proved her death. The prisoner' went out, told every One he had murdered his wife, and must be hanged. Blood was ' rti his knees. ' 1 he people would not believe him ; but at last w ent in, aud saw the wife dying. She was not dead, and to a question from the husband, if he had de- signed to kill her, she answered, " No." He was found Guilty of Manslaughter, and sentenced to ten months imprisonment. At Maidstone Assizes, John Ottoway a'rtd Henry Yourns, two soldiers, convicted of an abominable offence, were condemned to be executed, and in- formed that they need not expect any mitigation of the sentence. At York Ass ires, Mark Young and Mary Young ( father and daughter) were charged with the mur- der of a male child, the offspring of the said Mary Young, ' lhe trial occupied five hours, and the Jury, after retiring for some time, acquitted the prisoners. There was this singularity in the rase, that the male prisoner was the father of the other prisoner, and wiiS the only person privy to the birth of the child, which was concealed for two or three days ; when suspicion having been excited, the fact of her delivery was admitted, and the dead child was prodtiHd from a band- box. There was no duubt that it hud died of strangulation, either during the birth or after it; A young lady, of interesting appearance, threw herself into the Canal, iti St. James's Park, on the evening of Wednesday se'nnight, and would have fallen a sacrifice to her rashness, but for the prompt assistance of a waterman, w ho tfjWed to her relief, and dragged her into his boat. On being taken on shore to a tent, she was perfectly senseless, but in a few minutes became aware of her situation, and on seeing herself surrounded by strangers, burst into tears. Au elderly gentleman who was present, observing that the presence of so many persons was irksome to her, requested that the tent might be cleared, aud then, iti the most sooth ing tenns, remonstrated with her 011 the folly and impropriety of her conduct. For some time she returned no answer to his entreaties to know the cause of her distress, but at length she confessed, that having betn daticing with a young man, who had long paid her his addresses, iu onfe Of the booths, she Uas so mortified at steliig him more attentive to another female, whom he happened to meet by accident, that in the frenzy of the moment, and shocked at his faithlessness, she ran out and committed thfc act, for, which she now expressed the utmost horror. With some difficulty the young fnan to Whom she alluded was found, lor he had himself been in search of the runaway, and having made a most passionate concession ior his temporary slight, the fair damsel, now reassured, was consigntd to his care. in Mount- Street, iVhen the following testimony was adduccd >— Miss Welchman was ou the eve of suc- ceeding to the business of Miss Macey, who was about to retire, aud had disposed of it to her, Mr. Watkins, wlio was an inmate at No. 27, statdd that he had lived in the house between three arid^ fetrr years. A few minutes hefove twelve ' o'clock on Thursday night he was alarmed by the housekeeper, \ Vfco. desired him to get up. He had previously heard some words between Smith and the deceased, lie heard the report of a pistol or gun distinctly, after hearing the deceased scream very loud, and which was followed in about thiee moments by another report of a like n'ature. Witness arfueti himself w ith a pair of tongs aud went up stairs, when he fouud the deceased bleeding, and seem- ingly dead. The windows " of the front room were open, out of which the assassin had escaped from oil' the top of the door, U height of twelve feet. He had left his hat and- a brace of pistols in the room. Smith always appVr. i'ed to Witness to be of s'ound mind. Mr. Russel, n surgeon, at 21, Mount- street, was called to the deceased about twelve o'clock, lie found her in a person's arms ; she was insensible but yet alive ; she had lost much blood, and on examining the right Vein pie he fouud a woiiud enough to admit the tip of his linger, and the temple was much swollen. He was informed two pistols had been discharged, aud he found another wound 011 the left side, near the top of the head, where he supposed one of the balls had lodged, as one ball only was found iu the room, which iu his judgment was resisted by the substance at the temple. He had no doubt the ball ou the left side the head had caused death. He also exaniineu the pistols and found both liatj been discharged. Miss Mary Macey slated, that she was 111 busi- ness with her sister, and the dcctased had lived with her two or three years, and Was her forewoman. The offender went first by the name of Mitchell, and afterwards Smith or Mitchell Smith, lie first introduced himself to Miss Welchman as a purser, and formerly countenance was given to his visits, but latterly he proved himself very disagreeable, and the deceased had forbade him the house; yet he still troubled her once or twice a day. She once refused to see him altogether. He came there before dark on Thursday, and sat all the evening iu the work- room, which is the iniddie 011 the first floor, as witness and her young persons were in the front room. He was abusing the de- ceased, aud wanted her to go out and sup with him, which she refused, and she bade him leave the house frequently, which he refused to do. He said he would not go until the deceased gave up a letter of his, which she had destroyed. Witness aud her workpeople went down to supper about eleven o'clock, aud the deceased followed them iu about fife minutes after, aud said she must be alone with Smith abcut five minutes, and she returned to him ; soon after she gave a loud scream, and the instant after the report of a pistol was heard, fol- lowed by that of another. Witness did not go tip stairs; and could not tell what happened after. The windows were shut and the shutters bolted when witness weut down stairs, and it is evident the assassin, premeditating the foul deed, had opened them when Miss Welchman went down stairs for a minute or two, as he had not time to do so between the report of the pistols and the time he escaped, and he could havt' got off 110 other way. The constable who produced tlie hat and pistols, which he fouud ia the room, also produced a piece of a comb which one of the balls had shot from the head. lhe deceased was a fine woman, between four , and live and twenty, of most amiable manners and exemplary conduct.— lhe Jury returned a verdict j of Wilful Murder against Smith, alias Mitchell, JOANNA SOUTHCOTT.— The flowing is the vision which this miserable fanatic professes to have seen, previously to her miraculous conception., in her 05th year! and of which ail account is given in her Third. Book of Wonders:— " On the '. till of October, 1813, I was ordered to sit up all night In a room by myself, which I did. Many extraordinary thingK were revealed to me, why CHRIST took mail's nature Upon him, and what- he suffered for man's sake; that I should keep that night in everlasting remembrance, and not forget the gin r of the blessings I enjoyed. About twelve o'clock I looked at the candle; there appeared . something like a large bowl behind it, with a point towards the can- dle; the candle was flaming very bright, aud there appeared a ring as red as scarlet, circled round the middle of the flame; immediately there appeared a hand as white as snow, which cavue out between Iti.* bowl and the caudlf, and pbilited fowa'dsine: 1 lieiw- bled lo see it, but was answered—" FCAB NOT: IT IS I." 1 was tlnen ordered to put ou my glasses, and the hand appeared the second Unit, " more brilliant than before; but then iheflatne of the ca mile seemed pa i lt- il in two, and looked in a different manner than t:. c iiisl, but burnt very bright.
