t Po; e in Ireland, by an express Act, this passage in oath was added, to secure what had been always inied by the Pontiff. It cannot be said that this sage might not be emitted arid the oath aimed, be ise o f because the oath has been amend. a d a mock oath of allegiance added to it. Ye t y does it remain, "hen it means notl ing of eccle. stical or priestly jurisdiction, which is not fully con ed in other words in the same oath ? But the most erful argument against it scone, which we are as. ished not to find in the Digest of the Evidence. on state of Ireland in 18'21 and 1825, by Dr. Phelan Mr. O'Sntivan. his very passage was brought forward by the eels. ted Bishop Bansu., as a d rect proof that the Porn cised and claimed a kingly authority in ',eland, vious to the rebellion of 1641. In urging the proof is assertion, „ the Pore bath another kingdom" de his spiritual one, he adds these emphatic words, he POPE bath here a Clergy, the heads whereof are orpot al oath hound unto him, to maintain him and egali COSTRA ONNEM NOMMEN, and to execute indaies to the uttermost of their forces:'—Barnette of Bishop Bedell—p. 54. 'ow, w hen we consider that the passage " I will help (the Pora and his successors) to defend and keep Roman Papacy and the Royalties t f ST. PETER." introduced into Ireland, when the supremacy of an sive K;ng had usurped the right which the Pontiff • ed—when we consider that it has ever been inter d as applicable only to a Royal jurisdiction in that t , y—when we consider, that one of the most un ached witnesses that ever bore testimony clings to passage, as evidence convincing that the POPE claimed through regal supremacy by the fact of iish W shops taking this oath—when we consider that he instrumentality of these Bishops who took this —by the exertions of the Pri, sts whom Bishlp Be t. says" moulded the people to the Pors's obedience' y the exertions of the inferior Clergy who, he says, e guilty of an " infamous liberin assuming the !tomes. ure of the Established Priesthood, and " by the le of three, four, five, or six Funds" which the Pi jests •e at the chapels, that by all these means the rebel. of 1641 was brought about—W.° that considers weight of evidence, coupled with the fact that the still remains, and still is taken by the Popish ops in Ireland, but will acknowledge that its import angerous, that it contains masked treason, and is in If a fountain from which may flow rebellion and rchy, whenever He, to whom are committed the s of Easth as well as Heaven, may please to open sluices of desolation ? ho will say that the people of Ireland, the abject es of the Priesthood, could be equally loyal as the testants of the Empire, when the Popish Bishops tinue to take an oath which history says is the oath k REBEL ? laving said so much, we cannot now advert, as we rsed, to the conduct of the Committee of the arse of Lords and Commons, 1r 1824-1825. We ll only add at present. that a more miserable farce i never exhibited. The wh , le plAn appeared to be often down the asperities of P•.pery—to make the Itches of Reformers demi-Papistical, to turn the itsations cf hi tory against the Roman Catholic ch into the dreams of madmen—to win the nation 'mancipation by sophistical jargon and delusive Lr Pds tl make pretty sentences, the test of doctrines exhibi ions c t Jesuistry, the most convincing evi- Lees that Popery had ceased to be loathsome and !opt. he accounts from the late theatre of war, which ears in the following extracts from the German lets received this morning, are of too •4kue and tradictory a nature to require commer t Tie fe ted loss of the Russian man-of-war in the Black containing the trophies captured from the Turks 'aura, appealed in tl is Paper a week since : JASSY, Dsc. report is just spread here, that oo the 30th Nov. there were severe actions in the environs pi Varna, where the Turks are to have made an attempt to drive the Russians from their lons. With respect to the issue et these actions, the most coo hg reports are in circulation; some giving the victory to tau Bans, and some to the Turks. Another report which has been laud here, on the authority of letters from Odessa, is, that tussian ship which had on board the 12 cannon taken in Varna which were intended for the monument of King Wladisbus at saw), together with many other trophies frontVarna, had been 1:1, in a violent storm, towards the Gulf of Bourgas, when it ran )f* another Russian ship that had been likewise driven thither, bat the shock was so violent that both ships went to the l,ati, and every soul on board perished. We hope that this if net wholly unfounded, will prove at least to be greatly rated. NUREMBURG, Dec. 44. le Municipality of Sonneberg brought an action for a libel at the proprietors of the Dorf Zeitung of Hildburgbausen, on int of some remarks on the proceedings of the Municipality on management of the public business. The Municipality having her cause before the tribunal of Ilildburghausen, appealed to 'operior Court at Wurtzburg, which has rejected the appeal decision, the terms of which are extremely remarkable : Editor of the Dorf Zeitaing," says tie Court, "like tie kra of *titer public Journals, has taken upon himself, and not out the approbatiorrof the readers both at home and abroad, int out defects and desiderata on public nutters, and thus to Route to effect an improvement ; and though this use of the y of the press has not taken such deep root in Germany as in countries of Europe, yet the principle of the press is in general ed in the modern public law. lithe several G ents have determined on the means of preventing the abuses that may in the eserche of its rights—if, therefore, the press is from dam to give an amount of publk matters—if the consequences of e laws ate to be pointed out, Information of the injurious pro. pof organs of the Government to be communicated—if per. g public characters, such as the municipality of spuoeberg. least subjected to a moral responsibility, it can by no means for granted that the observation or blame is purposely do. to give offence.

Dec. 24. The Paris Papers received last night contain no news from the late theatre of war. The Gazette de &ace gives an extract of a letter from Constantinople 01 two dais later date than our previous accounts, and he Coplailmlionnet has another letter from the same city, dated the 29th November. From this it would ppear, that there had been arrivals of provisions ~om Egypt and Sysia in such quantitie , , as to !move all immediate apprehensions of scarcity.— The Russian fleet off Tenedos is accompanied by a swarm of Greek privateers,who indiscriminately plunder all they meet. The Turks hope that this will soon produce some collision bttween the fleets of the dii. terent Powers. There is no appearance of accommo dation in the Pune, and tt.e Sultan, it is said, has ex pressed his Met mination to have all or nothing, and that " the Tut kish Empire shill be restored to the same tertitorial situation which it has occupied for the last century." M.

TrieLva O'CLOCK. We are still without any information in regard to lUr. STZ PHENIOII, the Banker. By the French Mail of this morning we have accounts from Montevideo of the 14th of October, stating that the blockade of the river Plate was raised on the 2d of October, and sierra French vessels were on the eve of sailing for Buenos Ayres. Accounts from Berlin, of the 22d December, state that the ne gotiations for the establishment of peace were going forward with the greatest activity, and it is said that the Prussian Cabinet have decidid to become mediator ; still little ho; es are entertained of its bring successful, as authentic kttets bate been received at Berlin from St. Petersburgh, bringing accounts that the Emperor Nl unmake is more determined than ever to continue the war with the greatest energy. The greatest enthusiasm is displayed through out the Russian empire for war, and the recruiting was going for ward with the greatest promptitude. The Duke de Itlerremoar was on the eve of leaving Paris for St. Petersburgh, as Anibaseadsw. It is said as certain that the Bank of France has agreed to employ their profits of about three :Winces of three per cents. to purchase dailp six thousand francs. Consuls opened this morning at 87a 3, at which price they re main at present, with little or nothing doing. CITY. HA LF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK. Nothing is known as yet about STIPHINIIOII, the banker, nor is there any further accounts about the Banking house. The arrivals this morning are very scanty—not a single ship letter has come to hand. Consols have continued the whole of the morning at 87j. alter nately buyers and sellers, with very little business doing. l'he Exchequer Bill market has become more calm. It is gene rally thought that the Exchequer Bills missing by the Banking house of liastiscrrox and Co. cannot be stopped, as, if they are refused in the Exchequer market, they may be kept tiU due, when they will be paid by Government, or they may be given at the , Custom House for duties, with a loss of about 2or 3 per cent. There is not a feature in the Foreign market worth observed= at present DEATH OF THE BlsllOP OF NORWICH. Accounts Dave been received in town of the death, suddenly, an.l vety unexpectedly, sT the Bishop of Noawtott. His Lordship was upwards of eighty 'ears of age. We have received (says the Brighton Gazelle) the following letter fro .n a cot iespondent at Constantinople. i' Some vrtio'is of his communication do not agree w'ih other accounts which have reached this country ; but the whole will be read with interest, as showing the actual :este of opinion in that city : " CONSTANTINOPLE. Nov. 25, 1828. " We arrived here on the 18th inst. and were fmtunate to get in before the blockade of the Dardanelles by the Russians. We I have accounts that they have commenc e d th e bl o ck a d e w i t h t h ree ships of the hoe and two frigates. The Turkish fleet is all lying her* dismantled ; they have ships enough to cope with the Russians, but I understanal they ate badly off for sailors. They have, I believe, See ships of the line, besides frigates and ships of war of smaller sixes, with bomb vessels. In Smyrna there has been !lately a plot discovered to destroy the city, and, it is said, to put all the . Franke to death.; but it was happily prevented. Seven or eight persons have already been beheaded, on suspicion of being con tented in the plot. The Russians have prohibited the export of all grain from the 131.. ck Sea ; indeed. the Turks will not per mit any more English ships to go up, lest they should enter into the Russian service as transports. It is said that there is not more than four months supply of grain in Constantinople, and that they can get no supplies from Asia, they being short there also, while the Dardanelles being blockaded, they of course can get none from Egypt. nor from any other place in the Mediterranean. The islands iu the Archipelago will soon, no doubt, be in want. hlitylene is already much distressed. We were warded on our passage by a boat from that island, the crew of which informed us they were much in want of corn; if we had been loaded with it, we could have obtained almost any price. It is said the Rusaians are within 20 days march of this place, and probably nearer. The Sultan's Ministers are endeavouring to per *trade him. by all possible means, to come to terms of mon riliation; but it is said that he remains determined not to bear or accept of any terms whatever. The Russians are re- Etied to have lost, by disease and the sword, already 100,000 men. • the Turks can keep them in check until the but weather sets in. is probable there will be great disease again amongst the Rus. .alans. and that the Turks will force them to retreat, and defeat 'brit ("teatime altogether. The Russians have taken many places hi Asia. It is not improbable they will suffer there also by disease Pad the want of food; for the season of the year will now soon prevent them from getting supplies."

A number of P ersons of both sexes, to the amount of between fifty and sixty, assembled to the rattle of a watch, and, as the custom it, to have a dance. After plying their heels for some time, in a large room below, they all, with the exception ttf a few boys, ad journed to an upper room, right above the one they haJ left; soon after which, the children ; who remained playing by themselves underneath, heard a loud crack, on which they toe tunately ran to the door, when, in a moment, down came the floor, involving the a hole of the astonished merry-makers in a mass one above another, along with the furniture of tie apartment. Strange to relate, the whole of them escaped with their lives, though a young man and a young woman got each a leg broken, and not a few received slight bruises. The height would be between eight artd nine feet from the ground floor, and the jointing was found to be in a state of utter decay.—Netuark Advertiser. MIILAPCHOLY ACCIDENT. — Mr. Paul James Redford, of Ctiffe Cotrage, Hollaway Hill, Derbyshire, left home on Friday morning last, intending to visit Mr. Horton, a friend who resided about three miles from his house, and hetook with him his doubled barrelled gun, to have some sport on the road. On passing thtough Archer's Wood, it is supposed, he put the butt end of the gun into a hedge, to procure a bird or a rabbit he had killed, when a brier caught the trigger, and the charge entered his body, and caused instant death. Tile situation in which the body was found confirmed that opinion, and the Jury returned a verdict of Accidental Death. We understand that a great competition is now car rying on between the band and power loom weavers of Blackburn, the consequence of which has been, that the hand loom manufacturers have reduced their goods neatly 9,5 per cent. At this season of the year such a seduction is truly distressing.

Tuesday night, a woman walking down Causer. side, had a plaster suddenly clapped on her file by an unseen hand, which covered her mouth from ear to. ear. Full of the horrors of resurrectionism, the woman was so stupefied that she had not power or presence of mind to pull it off, but ran into a neighbouring shop in sr state of agitation not to be desctited. The shopman kindly assisted in iidd•na her of the cause of her alarm, which, on examination, she found to be a letter she had dispatched that forenoon to one of her •former cus• tomes, demanding instant payment of two pounds of salt, sold to him in 1825, And threatening prosecution in di fault of payment.
