At a meeting of tic lris!t Catholic A ,, oc • g.7nn„ held in 1).0lin on it illy last, Enevs roamaell, Z.sti. read, by cetire, a copy of the letter addressed by Cardinal Litter on beliaif of the l'ype, to the Ri:fat :to/. Poynter, in answer to the representations from the Eaglisli Catholics, wit! a view to such an arrang meta of their relizi , .tis particularities as might induce the Government of their cottony to concede them the full ri:;ts of thitish subjects. Cardinal I.itta ; s P:ter k dated the pith April, 1815, at Get.oa, tit.: Pot al Court had then retited, appreitenAcn of i%ltizat's hostile pro ceedings. Alter touching briefly on the adverse cir cumstances of the d o tes, which had not peimitted such a c•ensii.!. , ration as would warrant .t final answer on matters of such imp-rtance, the Cardinal speaks' in :ere suii.lined terms an the pima material paints of tiler case re'e'led to the holy See, by those whom Dr. Poynter i 6 $ Thu point,,flowever, that mly now come under consi.kration, and which tise iii•lesaid Government, to Secure its own and the State's tranquillity and safety, seem to te:piire on the part of its Catholic :objects, the oath of .11q,iai.ce to be taken by tlh'in, the mode of appoioing llishops to the vacant Sees, the revision of all re, ci ipts, breves, and cfnl..ii tutions whatsoever at the Sovereign Pontiff, beicre the same be put rte execution. " As to the first, his lloliwe3 flatters himself, that theGoverninei:t of Great 13t patio would by no means Evict from Cee Catholics, any ot!.e: - oalt but such as, whilst it gives to the Government itself a Still Eur.r pledge of the fidelity of the Catholiv:,may, at the same time, neither cit.h in the least with the ptliciples of the, Catholic ieliginr., nor cast any af trout upon the same most holy religion of Lutist. " In case the aforesaid emanzipation be eitacted,i so as in ev:ry seared (omnite,) to be favourable to the his said Holiness will permit them to take that one of the following forms of oath which the' Government shall think most actviseable ; for each of them seems perfectly cAculated to answer both of the above-mentioned ends, and therefore cannot but satisfy the Government. " The first is as follows: " 1 v.vear and promice, upon the Holy Evangelists, obedience and fidelity to his 12.6yai Majesty George Ill.; I also promise that I will not hold coy communication, be privy to any plot, lair keep any :Auspicious connexion either at home or abroad to injure the pt.l-lic peace; awl if it shall come to my knowledge tioe aiiy projvciiog, either in my dioce.e or elsewhere, to the prejudice of tile State, 1 will reveal the seine to Governs mein." 66 The second runs thur,:— " I hwy.. r and proniise that I will con4nue fai•liful and entirely subject and obedient to Royal Majesty George 111. ; and that I will act, in any wise, disturb the peace and train:whiny of this realm, nor g:ee any aid or a-skatiee to any Power who either directly or ithlirecily may Le an enemy to his Majesty and the present Gove.runie::t of England." 4 4 '11:: third : . " I swear and promise oleedianee and true fidelity to our most beloved Lord George 111. whom I will, with all my might, de fend against ail con.piracies, assaults, or attempts whatsoever, aga.nst his Verson, Crown, and dignity; and it it shall cone to n.y knowledge, that any such are forming against him, I will reveal the same to his animals!

But, Gentlemen, in an instant the man was upon his legs; and before I could pull up and turn my horse to see whether any mischief had ensued ; before I had the opportunity or the power of eves uttering my regret ; before I could even ask pardon for the consequence, which 1 could neither foresee nor contronl, I received a most furl ons blow across my loins, struck forcibly with a thick stick, and I was knocked forward or m the pummel of my saddle. I certainly was exasperated at the blow. My whip fell out of my hand, and seizing one of the pistols, which by a fatality I had with me, snapped it by way of intimidation at my assailant. -But seeing a person tall, powerful, and athletic, again brandishing his stick ; enraged and irritated with pain from the blow, with tf.e butt end of the pistol I struck, and unfortunately brought him to the ground. " I solemnly declare before God, that the pistols were not loaded—such weapons ale, I may say, part of the furniture of the Officers of the Army and Navy—unhappily 1 had mine wit.h me—l had pro cured them in the course of that day only, and was carryjng them to my lodgings at dtoyapooratn.

Gentlemen, my lile is in one hands ; let each of• you, in my situation, ask yourselves it y: u would, nay, it you could with pa tience, have submitted to such an attack—Christian torbearanze should have whispered yes ; but frailty will answer no. In human frailty this homi cide will find its excuse, and this excuse has its SAllC ti‘m in the mercy of British law." The Learned Judge then summed up the evidence with the izre 'test perspicuity, and the Jury, after re. about ten minutes, brought in a verdict of . MADRAS QUARTeIt sESSIONS, MAY 17. INTEREsTING TRIAL FOR MURPC.R. On Tuesday morning Petuenbe Sitspeerei, a Lieu tenant in his Majesty's Navy, was put to the bar, charged with, the murder of Daniel Lamb , on the Dig!it of the Bait ult. NYifliem Bathorn was the first witness called. He deposed as follows; he was a gun-stocker, living in the great Pecietrry, at the north of the Black Town; had hem acqnrinted with the deceased since the fancy of the witness. The deceased was a Purtu gie-£O. On the night of the t:Sth of March, between eight nine o'clock, a fine moan light night, the win.ess etas standing at the door of one Pitcher, at Royapo.narn, witness saw the deceased walking in his bed gown, with a stick in his hand; did not no tic- what sort of a stick: he s' es walking towards his own house, about thirty yards front whence wit ness was; this *was seven en lit ht yards from the house where witness was standieg ; he eaw a gentle :tem on horseback on the opposite side of the road; did not then know the gentleman's name, but now knew; it to be Sheppard, the pisoner ; knew, how ever, the person well, as he had often seen him tide on that road before. At this time his horse was walking on the oppoeite site; he crossed the road to wards the deceased ; he clapped his heels to the sides of his horse, which made the hot se plunge forward and the bw the deceased down; did not see whether the plumes . had spurs or nu; deceased cried " 0 Gov. t .tio hurt." The prisoner turned his horse in the direction of the witni is ; he waiked two paces. and the:. sto;)ped ; the desceised gut up and walked towards the nrisowr, say infi " how could you use me su ?" and- struck the prisoner across the here: with a s:ick ; the prisoner then rode past witness, he was ' then disengaging something front the pummel of the saddle, which appeared to witness to be a box ; after pasting about eight or ten yards he tinned back, and witness then discovered it to be a pistol in his hand ; the prisoeer went op to the deceased, and exclaianto tcl him, 66 Yon rascal, shoot you;" he then aliened the pistol ; witness saw sparks cl fire, but no of poweer ; the prisoner then took the muzzle in his decear;Nl with the butt cud of the pistol, which keockcd Lim dor. n ; prisoner also test off his horse; atter Le luy Se walked away ; the pi isoncr go: up, and g :re deceased two more blows on the heats vith the. pinto;, ;le de:eased lyin - 4 , senseless from the otf:•cts of C.e first blow ; the pi ienner then icok de ceased's cane, and lu'd It tevotely ac:o.s has body ; the witness counted s'e blows; the prisoner then thi en the cane down, and walkesl towards his Leese; the family of the det:eased Caen came crying. to ta . ,:c him bona".

We vindicate its insulted honour, and must ever be on the watch to rept ; with rromptitude all at tacks upon its secu.its,4 and arson its character. And . trained and lo:mcd in such a school of retalia;ion, we learn and practice perhaps a quicker and a more lively resentment of every wrong and injury, than those who have been bred and educated in the more peaceful walks of line. These are allowances, these ate indulgent considerations, to which, at this awful Moment, I might fairly lay claim ; but I trust, from the circumstances disclosed to you upon this trial, that the urhappy condition to which 1 am now re duc: d, might have been the lot of the most hairee,s and the must peacefully dispcsed unto igst you. Any vile, under similar provocation, might have done the melancholy act for which I am now here arraigned; Fe would have retorted the violence and outrageous blow which was first inflicted by Daniel Lamb, and defended liireAt against the assault with whatever weapon was within his reach. 66 On the day in questiun, I was tiding a spirited and no: easily mana: ; eable horse—not lonB. before this c 41an:ituus event, he had Erten very restive ; had ran .way with r 0.,, and had thiown me (iff With yin_ I,nce ~g ; ,in,t a th:IIOCL Bandy, on the high road— between thc hours of eight and nine in the evening, on my return to my lodgings at Roy apootam, 1 Feret"% - ca that the streets were more than mealy ;row:v.l welt paswnt;eis.

My first idea, Ely 404, was to i . iscett4tia if we poor -- .~ ~ net hesitate to permit that those, to whom it apper.l tains, may exhibit a list of the cand i d a t es to the ' King's Ministers, in order that Government, if per chance any of them be disliked or suspected, may immediately point out the same to have him ex punged; but so as that a sufficient number may re main for his Holiness, out of which to cl:ct those whom lie may judge, in the LORD, most worthy to govern the vacant churches. " As soon, therefore, as the Legislature of Great Britain shall promulgate, in due and authentic form, its aforesaid act of emancipation, conformable to the sentiments of his Holiness, as above expres• with which 1 presume the British Government is already acquainted, his Holiness will on his part, likewise send a timely Brief to all the Catholic Bishops and' faithful of Great Britain, in which he will publish to the universe, his sense of .gratitude towards the clz mcncy and generosity of the most powerful British Government, will exhort the Catholics, especially after this new-received favour, to adhere, with still more fervent loyalty, to their august King, and finally, in a solemn form, terreit them to observe what I have hitherto stated, with regard to the oath and the election of Bishops." The power of revising and sanctionin g , pr reject ing reicripts from Rome, addressed to the Cath , ,lic Hierarchy within these realms, is described to be " inadmissible, even as a matter of discussion," as although that power is claimed and exercised even by certain Catholic Sovereigns," it is an abuse which the Holy See, to prevent greater evils, is forced to clidure and tolerate, but can by no means sanction."
