The Ministerial arrangements are not yet ma- Lured, but it is said, that the Lord Chancellor has waved his objections to the introduction of Mr. Canning, provided that gewletuan w:11 renounce the Ca holic question—those who know him best, will doubt the least of the event, for we believe, if he had ►worn by every Saint in the Calendar to observe any one point most pertinaciously, his PATRIOTISM would prompt him to incur the charge of perjury, rat her than neglect the called Ain Country in ile.strcss.—Perbaps his next wetivement may be graced by another Ersbasay.to Lisbon ! -Letters from Monte Video of the 2il of July have been received, which state that a proclamation was issued on the preceding (h.) , by the Commander of the troops, declaratory of the intention to adhere to the Cortes at Lisbon, and against a union with Brazil. This step is said, however, to have been partly compulsory, and produced by the interference of t't! officers of the European regiments. The ptotlamation also calls upon the Brazilian soldiery to co-operate with them ; but to this they were be lieved to be strongly disinclined, and serious conse quences were anticipated from the difference of po htiral feeling among the tnstps of the two countries. Extract of a letter from the Agent to I.;oyd's at Constantinaple, da'ed August A .Maltese vessel, under English colours, hound liy.. this place for the TutlCsh fortresses at Negropont, has been . taken possession of by the Greek naval force off La ti.da, on the north.west point of Negropont, and her 'largo (wheat) being suspected to belong to the Turk ish Government, was taken cut and condemned, and the vessel all mud to depart." The Gas,licof foes:lay night announce=, that the King Eas appointed lUajor•Qen. Si! B. Bloomfield to be his Nls.iitssy's Envoy Eitfreturdiniu7 41134.Mink ter Plenipotentiary to the Court• of Stotlhohn. Very melancholy accounts from the whale-fishery in Das is's Straits, have arrived front Hull. No less than seven vessels have been lost in the ice, and many others were left in imminent danger of the seine calatnity. The following are the names of the yes els lost :—The Valiant, of Whitby ; the British Q./mu, of Newcastle ; Lady Jane; Calypso, of Danner; Invincible, of Peterhead; Ilero, of Mon trose ; and Lady Forbes, of Liverpool. The names of the vessels mentioned to be in peril were—the Andrew ilia) vel, Ellison, Gilder, Ingria, Maly Francis, and Progress, all of Hull. Letters from Naples of the 24:4 ult. state, that a a 114 W loan to tile Neapolitan Government has been contracted for by the house of C. M. Rothschild and Co.of that city. fhe amount of the loan, is 1,000,000 ducats de setae, equivalent at 5 per cent. interest, to a capital of 20,000.000 ducats. At the contract price, which we understand is 73 fin- one halt' of the loan, and 75 for the remainder, the sum received under it by the Neapolitan Government will be something short of 2,500,0001. sterling. One of the contli,ians of the contract is, that nu money shall be raiaed hir three years to come. The bonds will be in precisely the same form as those previously In circulation, with dividends payable in January and July, and, as the loan has been contracted abroad, dependant on the rate of exchange. It is not ex ! i evict!, that many of the bonds will be introduced into the London market, as the list of subscribers hw been principally filled up by capitalists resident in Naples itself, in Genoa, or Paris. GIDRALTAII, Avo. 22.—A ship of the line and two brigs, under French colours, were seen cruiz- Mg off Cape St. Mary's, both yesterday and the day before. The commandants of the troops sent against the Ronda malcontents, reported officially on and 13th inst. from Jubrique and Übrique, that all had submitted but the leaders, and that the two principal ones had no more than 16 or 20 men left with them. Zaldivar had marched off, and was stated to be on the 13th near Algar with 14 men.— A column of about 400 militia men marched out of Cadiz on the 14th or 15th inst. headed by the Civil Governor of the province; it was to be joined by two flank-companies of the militia of the Ida, and port St. Mary's. The True Briton, Harvey, of Liverpool, for St. John's, New Brunswick, was abandoned at sea on the 25th tilt. in lat. 55. 0 long. 30. 0. and it was expected she would go down in two hours after the crew left her. After being out 18 days. and having reached let. 55. 0. N. lung. SO. 0. W. the ship was struck down on her beam ends by a heavy sea in the night of the 24th ult. The gale continued, and next day she sprung a leak; all hands were put to the two pumps, but the water gained on them ; the vessel now running before the wind. The water cask:, &e. were by midnight floated in the hold, and the ballast covered with water, which increased La a depth of four feet. It was at length found that the vrsst I had started a but on the starboard-quarter, and worked very much in the after-run. At five next morning, she, having lost all power of her helm, fell seater-logged on her beam-ends; and with much difficulty the long-butt was launched, and all hands (18 in number) got into her, with only four small oars, and a very small supply of provisions, and a compass : a tremendous sea was running, which obliged them to keep before the wind. At nine in the morning they were fortunately picked up by a brig, the Sally, of Harrington, Captain Ditchburn, from Dublin, bound to Miramichi, who by great exertion, and much difficulty, saved them from their perilous situation. On the 29th, this vessel fell in with the hate, Captain Nixon, bound for Liverpool, who took them on board, and treated them with great'humanity. The repairs and improvements of Northumber. land House, are all expected to be completed ere Christmas-day The workmen have been obliged to under pin the whole of the edifice. The grand marble staircase is completed it, next to that of Chesterfield-house, will be the finest thing of the kind in London. The upholders are expected to complete the interior decoration by the 24th March; and in the month of May a grand fete is expected to be given. Cumberland-gate, the great northern entrance to Hyde Park, is about to undergo a very great im provement—it is said at the sole expence of Mr. Hope, whose classical taste is so well known to the fashionable world. Mr. Hope has made an offer to government to erect a new one, with a double en trance. This offer the government has accepted, and the workmen have already begun their opera tions. Thursday se'nnight a dinner was given by several independent gentlemen, at Anderson's Inn, Aber deen, to Mr. Hume. Mr. Hume addressed the meeting at some length, in which he referred to his conduct in Parliament, and declared that he never have a vote that his conscience did not ap prove. H:s speech was received with the most flat• tcring applause, and unanimity and good . fellowship characterised the procedings of the even►ng. - - True bills were on Thursday night found against the Bishop, Jocelyn, and the soldier, Moverley,— Plant only was examinti:, his evidence being consi dered by the Grand Jury u more than sufficient to criminate the parties. All the witnesses were ordered to be in readiness to go to Ireland. ECCLESIASTICAL ERUISOTIONS.--The following promotions are spoken of in the highest circles, as those likely to take place in consequence of the de., privation of the Bishop of Clogher :—The Bishop of Down to be translated to Clogher ; the Dean of St. Patrick's to be the new Bishop; the Hon. and Rev. Mr. Pomeroy to be Dean of St. Patrick's ; and Mr. Plunket's son to have the parish of St. Anne, in his stead. Ti►e late Peter Finnerty, one evening in a casual conversation with a gentleman at an inn in Brighton, made the following remark, upon which we leave our readers to make what comment they please:— " Lord Londonderry is a man of talent, and is com petent to more business than any of his competitors, but he is undubitably insane, and a coroner's jury will confirm my opinion; he will some day or °tier cut his own throat." THE NEW MARRIAGE AcT—A couple having, during the week, given notice to the clerk of one of the chapels in Wbitehaven, that the bans of their marriage were to be put up, and understanding that their names must be placed for three successive Sundays on the chapel door, requested that in that case they might be fixed behind the door, as the act did not forbid it. This is not unlike Lord Ito cheater's evasion of the Lamp A ct, who, as directed by that act, had a lamp placed before his door, but never lit it, as the act did not specify that it was necessary to do so. In the appointments to take place in Ireland un der the Constabulary Bill, his Excellency Marquis Wellesley is determined to select such persons only, for magistrates, as the noblemen and gentlemen forming the ordinary magistracy of the country can have no objection to corps with, on the score of birth, private character, and respectable station in society. Even the chief constables, who are to be raised under the provisions of this bill, will be cho sen from half-pay commissioned officers, in preference to any other description of persons. The applications of all sorts, for appointments under this bill, already amount to some thousands. The new grand entrance making for his Majesty, at the Honse of Lords will form a colunade of hand some pillars. The brick-work for the foundation is finished, and the masons are now at work upon the stones for the basement. The old door of the Jeru salem Chamber is bricked up. The following is a copy of an anonymous letter, which has been addressed to Richard M artin, Esq. M. P.:— " Smithfield, September 12, 1622. " Mr. MARTEN.—Take hede to yourself, aid let those that gets hard bred by the beasts live. What do we drovers du to harm you—sod why hurt poor honest lads that gets an honest bit by the cattle t Skippy Williams is a good fellow, Bed no body's enemy but his own, and though as bow be spent three years in Newgate, Mr. Browne gives him • good and honest character. That sheep he broke the jaw on was none of yours, sod there is not a drover in Smithfield that would mot do the like to an obstinate thing that would not stop, but ran away. I saw the butcher that ,killed the very sheep, and there was not any mark on the lines or sides of the sheep; so I says and will prove before the Lord Alayor, that the sheep got no berm. Mind yourself, busy fellow, and not turn spy, or we will serve you just as you Ifirish out on you ; so now take a friend's hint, and do not disturb Smithfield by sending honest boys to prison for no harm but just a little knocking of cattle about. Nobody in Smithfield will look after you ; but if you makes yourse.f too busy, 1 tells you that yon swill get • dog's death." Mr. Martin, we trust, has magnanimity enough to bear patiently the consequences of his own acts: lie is now undergoing the usual fate of all reformers of abuses. If he cares for either calumnies or threats, he had better retrace his steps immediately. A few days ago, it being found that affairs of considerable state importance will prevent his Ma jesty leaving town again so soon as he wished, and avoid the approaching equinoxes, the ships that com posed the royal squadron have been ordered to re sume their respective stations, and the Royal George yacht to proceed from Greenwich to Portsmouth, to be laid up for the season. Tux RETORT, AN HISTORICAL FACT.—When Miss Ann Pitt, sister to the great William Pitt, afterwards Earl of Chatham, received a pension from Lord Bute, her brother wrote her a very angry note, saying, " he never wished to live to see the name of Pitt and pension together." When the same William Pitt received a pension front the same Lord Bute of 3,000 L per annum, his sister sent kin. kick his own letter. A circular has been published from Chelsea Hos pital, stating that the officers of any pariah in England are enabled to receive the pension of an out-pensioner of that hospital who has deserted his wife and family, and suffered them to become charge able thereto, provided an order made out be executed and transmitted, conformably to the directions con tained in the igth Geo. 111. cap. 12, at least month previous to the quarter's pension beconiingduc• r TEM: itlAtlfii .
