ADMIRALTY—OFFICE, Nov. e 2 8 . Extract of a Letter from Captain Lyons, of his Majesty's ship Blonde, to Vice Admiral Sir Puhenry Malcolm, K.C.B. Com mander in Chief of his Majesty's squadron in the 33editerrancan, dated olr Mores Castle, the .50th Oct. 1848. In obeying your order to act in concert with the Senior Officer i of his Most Christian Majesty's ships, I have bad the good fortune of ending myself associated with those distinguished Officers, Cap- tain Mancini' Duplessis, of La Duchene de Berri ; Hugon, of ; and Villeneuve, of La Didon ; and in detailing the proceedings of the Blonde, I at the same time describe those of the French frigates, for I assure you, that throughout an arduous service of twelve days and nights. in very unfavourable weathers . the most perfect concert and hearty co-operation have been inva riably manifested. On the itith.inst. General Schneider expressed a wish that four eighteen-posanders should be landed front each snip, and in fess than four hours they were on shore, with all their appointments: the dilleulties occasioned by the surf on the beach being overcome by the fine spirit which animated all, French and English being in the water mutually assisting each other. In this operation the oral and inulligence of Lieutenant &mourn Brack were very conspicuous. On the 20th instant, Lieutenants Luckraft and I)3erel ; Mesas. Mockler, Hay, Blair, and Austen, marts; Ale,srs. de Sanatares, Kennedy, Dawkins, and Dar, Midshipmen, lauded with a party of seamen, and .commenced making the batteries, under the direc tion of the French Officers of Engineers and Artillery. At nine o'clock on the 22.1, the battery opened its fire on Morea Castle, and in a few hours silenced the guns opposed to it; but as the army advanced in their approaches to the breaching battery, the Castle opened fresh guns, which rend red it necessary for the marine battery to fire, at intervals, for tiiin days and nights. Last evening the guns of the (agues, with• two twenty-four pounders, which Admiral de Rigny landed from the Conquerant on his arrival, and such of the battering train as the weather en abled us to , disembark, were fairly established in the two breach ing batteries, named by General liaison, Charles X. and George IV. the French and English guns being promiscuously placed in each; and at daylight this morning, together with the mortar bat. tery and . the /Etna bunt), opened suck a tremendous fire on the 'Castle as to produce, in four boors, an unconditional surrender. • lam sure you will be glad to find that the seal and professional talent exhibited by Captain Lushington, his Officers, and ship's company, have excited the admiration of all. The /Ewa was worked up in the night, under reefed courses and close reefed topsailsi anchored and sprung, with such preci,ion, within eight hundred yards of the Casee, as to enable that 'meth. gent Officer, Lieut. Logan, of the Royal Marine . Artillery, to throw one hundred and two shells into the Castle, only the - first four going too far. Captain Lushington assures me that he received the most valuable assistance front Lieutenant Walker. WINDSOR CASTLE, Nov. 24. This day the Chevalier de Z,:a Bermudez, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from his Catholic Majesty ; and James Barbour, F.sq. Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Pleni potentiary from the United States of America, had their first pri vate audiences of his Majesty, to deliver their credentials; to which audiences they were respectively introduced by the Earl of Aberdeen, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Fo. reign Affairs, and conducted by Sir Robert Chester, Knt. Master of the Ceremonies. WINDSOR CASTLE, Nov. 24.

Mr. O'CoNtesatk rroceeded to read ti.e low:ng letter. taws:lira to• the Secretary triy Mr. Mac Donnell: " lAndon, Nov 18. " My dear Friend—The luill.pendlale duty devolves on me. as Secretary to the British Catholic Association, of applying to you, as Agent to the Irish Catholics, to know under what strange mis conception of circumstances it is, that the conduct of ibe British Catholic Association has been so severely animadverted upon in a recent meeting or the Association in Dublin. " You have viewed our conduct closely—you have been in inti mate connection with us, and you can best say whether we have merited one particle of those seem implications that have been profusely lavished upon us. " If it be blameable to hold that it is inexpedient to reject ALF. conditions before any are tendered, in so far we plead guilty.— (Mr. ('Connell—And guilty they are—but be should proceed without further observation or comment until he had concluded reading it)—and from those who differ with us wr claim a right, which we most willingly concede—that of enjoying our opinion. " In union not only with every member of the ['thigh Catholic Association, but with every friend to the lilwrties of mankind, I beg to express an anxious hope that no difference may arise between its to weaken our united exertions in a common cause against a common enemy. " I am, my dear friend, much yours, "EDWARD BLOUNT. " To P.oeas Mae Donnell, Esq." Mr. O'CONNELL then proceeded—Mr. Blount com pl .ins of sevese animadversions upon hum, and that they were misapplied; but Mr. Blount complained without cause. Now the British Catholic Associati-n committed a most gross and scandalous blunder. They have re solved. to petition f i r total and unqualified Emancipa tion, while their Secretary pr fosses that he is ready to receive conditions. Mr. Biour.t admits tlOs. He (Mr. O'Connell) arraigned this principle. It seas acting most basely, most treacherously, towards the Cathy l!c body i.t Ireland; for the moment the British Catholic Mso ciaoon avowed the principle cf admitting securities, they at the same time admitted that there would he danger to the Constitution in conceding Emancipato n. Now he (Mr. O'Connell) publicly declared, that if be considered L t hat Emancipation involved danger to th e Co ns tit u ti on , he would give up' the que.tien for ever ; but a hen he knew, that, on the contrary, there was secntity to the State in granting Emancipation, and insecurity alone in withholding it, he accused Mr. Blount, and all those wlm sanctioned his view s, r f the grossest and basest treachery to them. This conduct was base in antither point of view ; the British Catholic Association knew that they (the Irish Catholics) only claim Emancipation en this ground—that all are entat',.;cl to worship GOD as their conscience may dictate—Protestant, Alethodist. and every class of Dissenters whatever, and that the Catholic p ,, ssesses, nor claims to possess, no right or privilege whatever, but what he was most ready to concede to others. He would now gave notice for that day week, that should the Secretary of the British Catholic Association persist in these his pre ei.t !opinions, Mr. Mac Donnell be instructed to quit the British Association umil it disavow the sentiments of Mr. Blount, as their Secretary. Ile tespected Mr. Blount as a Gebtlemao, but if these be his sentiments. and those of the body whose Sect etary he is, the sooner they sever themavlves from them the better. Mr. O'Con nell concluded by giving notice that he would, at tl e next Meeting, move thE Mr. Mac Donnell be instituted to attend the next Meeting of the British Catholics . , and call tWen them for rt resolution, negative or col ama tory of the subject in question, and the ;milt should•de cide their (the Irish Catholic Association's) future con duct towards Mem.
