THR liberation of the remaining persons confined under the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act, has this week excited considerable interest. The conversation which took place some days ago, between Sir Natha niel Connant, and the two Evanses, has been made pub lic ; and from the general tone of it we suspect it to be the production of their pen. There is a low and •ulgar impudence, in their replies, an indecent cours . ness in their manner which they, no doubt, think will 'give them consequence with the public. Already we have seen one effect produced by it, for we find those persons, who hail readily entered into rccognizan ces, now standing on the floor of the Court of King's Beach, and loudly demanding that they should be dis charged. Mr. Evans and his energetic son, would have done well to remember the character of the individual whom they addressed in the conversation alluded to. Sir Nathaniel Conant, has fulfilled the important du ties of a Magistrate, for many years with a singleness of mind, an unflinching purity of principle, which has rendered him, not merely respected, but esteemed by all those who know either his public or private worth. To see him bearded by these two men, whose very defiance of all decency was in some mea sure their protection cannot but give pain to every man, who has any feeling of respect far the dignity of the Magistracy of the country. But these men have an object in view. They would not merely rie copyists of Hone, in the insults offered to justice, they no doubt like him, look forward to the public for a Subscription, and in all probability they will have it, and in all pro bability too, they will find another "Member of the House of Lords,'' another Earl of Darlington and ano ther Viscount Sefton, to send them their 100 guineas, because they have insulted and defied that power, by which their hereditary dignities are protected, and be cause they would destroy that system, by which their hereditary properly is preserved. Friday, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, which was attended by all the Cabinet Ministers : they sat in deliberation till about live, when the Speech for opening the session of Par liament was finally arranged, to be submitted to the Prince Regent in Council yesterday at the Pavilion at Brighton. After the breaking up of the Cabinet Council, Earl Harrowby, as the Lord President of the Council, gave the annual dinner, or what is called the Sheriffs' dinner, it being the day when the Sheriffs are pricked for the year. In the House of Peers the address will be moved by the Earl of Aylesford, and seconded by Lord Seises.— , In the House of Commons it will be moved by the Hon Colonel Wodehouse, and seconded by Mr. Wind ham Quin. No amendment, we hear, is intended to be moved by the Opposition. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has been for some time past new - modelling the mode of contracting for the supply of paper, parchment, printing, book-binding, ruling, and all other articles of stationary required for the public service, not only in this country, but also in Ireland. He has at length perfected his plans for the London supply, and contracts have been made at re duced prices, varying from 174 to 45 per cent.; and there is no doubt but similar advantages will arise to the public from his exertions in Ireland. The Paris journals of the 19th, are occupied with farther particulars of the interminable *Whir of M. Fuaides. The pretaratives for the trial are as cumber some as those fhr a general congress. Witnesses have multiplied mi iVinitum; and each new witness leads to tile arrest of some person as an accessory never impli cated Lot;.re. The last individual seized and examined is M. Constans, a lorater Commissar• of Police, anal he is already the oNe..t of some grave and important charges. In the mean time, the mysteries or mystiii cations of .Nladamc Manson appear to thicken as the catastrophe draws near. Whether moved by shame, by romance, or aticctation, she raves of every thing, JAN. 25 vet communicates nothing. She seems alternately un. der the guidance of vehement impulses and weak nerves. She perplexes the Magistrates—bullies the gend'armes—laughs at danger—and coquettes with justice. But, perhaps, a very common female secret is the spring that puts in motion these ingenious and end. less quackeries. Tile American papers of the 20th ult. contain some intelligence rather interesting on both sides of the At.. !antic. The prize ships made by cruisers of Amelia Island, and ordered into that port for condemnation, are, afterwards, on touching at St. Mary's, seised with their cargoes by the officers of the United States, and secured as public property. This is an act of positive ownership, exercised already by the stronger Republic upon the weaker one. General Floyd, commanding in Camden country, has ordered out .500 men from the districts contigious to St. Marys ; and to be placed ostensibly under the orders of General Gaines. \Mettler the In. dian war, or the sciatire of East Florida, is to find em. ployment for the above three, we are not :listinctly in. tinined. Against the possession of East Florida by the United States, in whatever way they may maintain it, a protest is said, with some show of authenticity, to have been delivered by our Minister, Mr. Bagot.— The American Editor uses the following language upon this, which may be considered an important national question :—" We give the above as received—but can. not think it will eventually appear that the British Go vernment has so tar presumei to interfere in our con cerns." This Baltimore journalist would perhaps be improved by some elementary lessAis on the difference between the pronouns possessive mum and Iwum. East Florida may be regarded as the absolute key of many of the British West India islands. We wish to avoid all needless irritation ; or really this talk about " our concerns" is enough to stagger the placidity of John Bull. The following is the passage respecting Mr. Bagot, to which we have alluded : •• WASHINGTON, DEC. 11..-It is mentioned here with apparent authenticity, that the British Minister, Mr. Bagot, has, by command of his Government, entered a protest against our coming iato posses sion of the Floridas by purchase or otherwise. I state what I hear, not what I know : such interference can hardly be expected. The Private Secretary of the President, as I presume you well know. is a younger brother to hint, not nephew. a► has been stated. The Secretary is a gentlenum of pleasing address, and every way fitted for the station. .• We gi‘e the above a% received (add.: the Editor). but cannot think it will eventually appear that the British Government have so fat presunwd to interfcie in our concerns." We give the fidlowing article from Stutgard, with the most heartfelt satisfaction; at the same time we may rejoice in the justice which has been dealt to wretches, whose villainies excite our abhorrence, we cannot but regret that our neighbours have been belime hand with us ; fir we have seen the same crime perpetrated amongst ourselves, and, we blush to add, almost with impunity. ‘‘ STUTGARD, DEC. 31.—Two citizens of Amsterdam, Richard Rodolphe, commissary, aged 25, and Jean Jacques Hartsink, aged 40. clerk of the tribunal of the Justice of Peace, having been convicted on a legal ex amination of having deceived and seduced emigrants, have been condemned by the tribunal of this city to five years imprisonment, and to a fine of 1,400 florins each, and payment of the costs. They arc declared to have forfeited the civil and family rights mentioned in the 42nd article of the l'enal Code. Rotlolphe, with. out having the necessary means of conveying the emi. grants to America, had printed and distributed cards, in which he fklsely gave out that he was authorized by the police to make this undertaking. He agreed with those who presented themselves, for the expenses of the passage, and it was settled that the money should be deposited with J. J. Hartsink, r.ot to be paid out of his hands till they should have arrived in America. _ _ Hartsink, who had first gone to Cologne, to give the emigrants confidence, took the money, for which he gave a receipt, and abused, for this purpose, his quality of clerk. Notwithstanding the assurance which he had given the emigrants, that their funds should not be disposed of till after the voyage should be completed, he had th. livered considerable sums to Rodolphe tor the purchase of the vessel, provisions, and other expellees of the voy. age, and kept 2,000 florins for himself; us it recompense agreed upon with Rodolphe. Besides the vessel being neither equipped nor provisioned, the emigrants have ken obliged to exchange their receipts fbr contracts, Lich the two rogues had adroitly concerted, to make it impossible for the credulous voyagers to recover their money." The AnmY.—lt is now reported that Si r Ch ar l es . Colville will be th e new G overnor uf and Sir Lowry Cole of Ceylon. It is It f!ct not g,:nerally known, that the Earl of !Lipton (Lord Niddrey), is the only one of the last created peers who declines re• ceiving any pension. It was :tt first said that Lord Coinherruere had declined, whioh was a mistake; be receives the 2,000!. per anntun same as Lords Beres. thrl and IEII. SIR W•Tntx t.
