We have received the following letter. aiul the ac: company ing affidavit, from Mr. MILLIKEN, of Graf ton-street. The affidavit, k will be observed, has been sworn before Mr. Justice BURTON, one of the Judges of the Court of King's Bench : "TO THS TROFSHITOR OF TH Z TRUMAN'S "JOURNAL. I," Sig—ln answer to a letter which I have seen in your Paper, signed ' Charles Thorpe,' I beg you will insert the following aft; davit ; and I remain your most obedient, " RICH ARD MILLIKEN. " 104, Grafton-street, Dec. 18, 1822." " Richard Milliken, of the City of Dublin, bookseller, maketh oath and saith, that he, the said deponent, was the author of a letter signed 'Veritas; which appeared in the Preensan'sJourtal of the 17th inst. in which it is stated that Mr. Sheriff Thorpe used those remarkable words—' That he thought the evening passed off very well, all things considered.' " This deponent with, that with indignation and disgust he heard the aforesaid expressions fall from this Public Officer at the Theatre, after the late outrage offered to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant: and that this deponent, considering the na ture of the insult offered to the Representative of his Sovereign, and the office filled by the person, who used these expressions, deponent has felt it his duty to depart from the ordinary course of contradicting the denial of Mr. Thorpe by letter, and preferred verifying the contents of the letter signed ' Verbal' by his so ' lemn affidavit: and this deponent saith, that he is the more induced to this decided mode of procedure, as the statement made by this deponent is capable of corroboration from three other individuals, to whom at the instant he communicated his sense of indignation at the aforesaid expression., and who have signified their readiness to come forward and' substantiate the same in a similar manner. " RICHARD MILLIKEN. " Sworn before me, at my house, in Stephen's green, this 18th day of December, 1522. " CHA KLEi BuRTON." In ad.iition to the statement in the letter of " Ve ritas," and his affidavit, Mr. Milliken informs us that Sheriff TIIORPE accompanied the observation, " that the evening paised off very well, all things consideted," with a significant look and shrug, at least as expressive as the words themselves. W n inmost ISM.—On Wednesday evening, a banditti of about thirty men, attacked the dwelling-house of WM. •NowLAN, a dairyman, at Kilteel, about nine miles from - this city . : - Having been refused ad mittance, they fired, find, we are sort y to state, that NowL.Or received a charge of slugs in his neck. He had previously received a letter, warning him to quit his farm. Qn Wednesday, Mr. Dittscoia., King's Counsel, and Mr. FINLAY, 'applied to the Magistrates of College street Police Office, to admit the two Handwiches and Graham to bail. - The Learned Gentlemen, after ar guing the right of the prisoners to bail, and citing several cases in Stipp - ort of their app licatiotf, submit ted that the Magistrates should fully commit the pri soners, ailleiesit at present only committed for further' examinatliihr Counsel were prevented from applying to the Judge to admit them to bail. The Magistrate (Counsellor GABEET) was of opi nion that their application could not then he complied with, as the particular offence with which the pri soners were charged, when coupled with the pre vious transactions, made it doubtful whether they should be chatted with treason 0... with a- riot.-1 The outrage on Saturday night, being connected with that system of daring and unlawful opposition to the measures of his Majesty's Government, so shamefully manifested in dressing the statue (contrary to the known commands of his Excellency the Lord Lieute nant, and the Proclamation of the Lord Mayor)—the subsequent lawless proceedings—the systematic ar rangements for the riot on Saturday night, which were known to have -been in progress for some days previous—a number of persons armed with danger ous weapons, professing themselves as of a particular political party—using insulting and threatening lan guage to his Majesty's Representative, with treason able expressions, and party. tunes—distributing sedi tious placards, with intent to coerce the Government in the exercise of its functions, and a direct attempt on the life 'of his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant — constituted 'a levying of War, or Treason, against the King and Government ;and the Magistrates were still engaged in collecting information and evidence respect ing the occurrences of Saturday night, to ascertain the nature and complexion of thecase against the prisoners. These were not only his own opinions, but they were in strict accordance with theinstruttions of those with whom he was bound to consult. And as the informa tions against the prisoners were not yet complete, it was impossible to say whether the offence for which they might be committed, was such as would war rant the Magistrates in taking bail. They could not, therefore, for the present, come to any decision upon the subject. As to committing . the prisoners fully, there was no limited time to which Magistrates were boom' to confine the examination of prisoners; on or dinary occasions forty-eight hours was the usual time, but the present case differed materially from ordinar y I cases.—Here the matter rested. Saturday last, according to annual custom, the Stewards of the Antelopean SOciety, which his been established nearly a century, distributed to the indi gent 1000 fQ'lr pound loaves of the best wheaten bread from the Society's house in White Hart-yard, Strand. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, Bart. Mr. HOSHOUSE, and Mr. KERN, who are members, were among the list of subscribers. A number. of persons were assembled the whole of yesterday skaiting on the ditch round the Tower of London. In the afternoon six young men felt in; four were immediately rescued, but two got under the ice, and it was only by breaking it that they were fortunately saved. THE PARKS...2—'IIIC frost was intense on Saturday night, and the Serpentine River was yesterday co vered with ice at the western end. Next to Kensing ton Gardens there were more than an hundred skaiters, and among them were observed the Mun. nays. Figures of three and eight were the principal evolutions. The Park presented an infinity of objects% many Ladies in the fur clad dresses, rivalling, if not ert. ceiling, the natives from Siberial for there were not a few persons of, both sexes from that inhospitable cli. mate. The Promenade from Hyde Park Cotner,, north and east, was covered with pedestrians. The day was tine with a bright sun. • .~s~- - 10;4 . • martian, irm LtraElvvt.

IRELAND. FROM VIE DUBLIN JOURNAL Or FRIDAY. Otangfi,int ; or, the late Atrocious Attack on the King's Pepreentative.—Some of our friends have said, :hat we have frequently carried our animadVer sio:i- O 1 1, e. O. ange Faction too far, and that tbey were really n. -t such unpt incipled men as we imagined. We can say, that we never spoke of this party from supposition, bto froqi the perfect knowledge of their principle• and pract.ce. We know some misguided men an ong them, who would not injure a living creature ; but rich characters arc not a twentieth part ui the gang, .and they must be held - as an exception. That 111- a - tack in the Theatre, on our most po pular an • rious Viceroy, was the result of a preineitii-..:c.. PLOT, no man doubts, and that it was liatche.; in the Pandemonium of Werburg-street, ve vei ily believe. If the matter be investigated in a proper manner, it will certainly be traced to its true source. The ac tual perpetrators are merely hired ruf f ians, instigated by wretches behind the curtain, who are so numerous, and, as they imagine, so powerful,•that they will neither be discovered nor punished. Mr. GRANT suffered perpetual annoyance from this quarter, and the same sort of game has been played against Marquis WELLESLBY. Ihit it will not do ; he is not the man who will submit to the arts of inti midation; he knows his duty too well: they will not seize the lion by the beard with impunity-they have missed the mark, and the gang will be unmasked. MEETING AT THE. EXCHANGE DUBLIN, DECEMBER 20. In pursuance of the Requisition, the LORD MAYOR called a Public Meeting this day, for the purpose of addressing his Excellency on his fortunate escape from the atrocious assault of the villains Who at tempted hi' life on Saturday night in the Theatre. The Nlceting - was, perhaps, the most numerous ever uitnessc.:l in this city, and similar sentiments seemed to every one—namely, those of attachment to his Excellency's person and Government, and just :abbot i cure against the base assassins who had con xeive:l the bloody design which PROVIDENCE frus trated. A Committee of twenty-one retired to pre pare Vie Address, and when they had. agreed upon the terms of it, they returned to the great area below, when Mr. 11. GRATTAN read it to the Meeting. The Address was strongly and happily written, and every se.:timent it contained was loudly cheered. The Meeting was unanimous, the Resolutions were passed with acclamation, and a grand procession will take lace to.:norrow, to deliver it with suitable pomp and solemnity. The Thanks of the Meeting were -unanimously vctcd to the LORD MAI:JI4 for his general cvaduct SPORTING IN', ELLIGENC E. PEDESTRIANISM. Gtascow, Due. 20.—Rossen, the well-known pedestal* who exhibited, his powers on various late occasions, and particularly at the time of his Memory's visit to Edinburgh, commenced his extraordinary task of walking 102 miles in twenty-four succes ,ive hours, on Monday, at half-past three o'clock, on a foot path opposite the Broomielaw. For six hours or so he went et the rate of five to six miles an hour, with apparent ease.— During the night he took several short rests; and so much had he gained upon time, that, at eleven o'clock on Tuesday, he was pacing it leisurely at about four miles an hour, seemingly con- • scions of ultimate success. He, however, during the afternoon, was far from being fresh, having beconui paler. At three o'clock he had a mile to do, which he took about seventeen minutes to accomplish ; and th ereby finished his task within 15 minutes of the time allotted. During the whole performance, the crowd was immense, and it was with no little difficulty that his way could be kept cleir. It is supposed that, at the time he finished, there might be ten thousand persons on the ground. As usual, many spectators were eased of their watches, handkerchiefs, &c. by professional people, who seemed to be more than usually on the alert.—Russell was afterwards drawn through the town by the crowd.

CORN EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE, DEC 23. The arrivals of all kinds of Grain last week were considerable. This morning the quantities of Wheat, Barley, and Beans, front fie ea and Kent, were good, but there are not many fresh ar rivals from othes-parts. Prime Wheat was much sought after this morning,, and obtained an advance of Is. to 2s. per quarter on the priers of this day sennight ; other qualities have also met with a trifling improvement. Barley continues heavy at last ireek's prices. Beans remain without alteration. Boiling Peas fully support the terms of this day se'nnight as well as Grey Peas. There is but little inclination in our buyers to purchase Oats, and this article remains without variation from last Monday's quotstions. There will be no market on Wednesday next.
