The French Government has enlarged Mr. Bow ring because " the offence with which he is charged dues not by the laws of France subject him to im pritniment'—thus has an Englishman been confined, with studied severity, for more than a month, during a great part of the time deprived of any and every •ititercourse, abut up in a loathsome dungeon, and tatbinitted to the inquisitorial process of questions to which ho was constrained to reply (le pioces perked) and after all, the organ of that power which had acted thus unjustly, is compelled to confess, in the order fur his release, that his detention has been illegal, and that the. Bourbons hid added another ground to the innumerable ones before exist ing, fur the contempt and execrations of the nation which rendered itself intamous by re storing, at the point of the b.youct, to France u dynasty which every Frenchman, for whom his country ought not to blush, cursed in his heart, while he dared not anathematise it w:th his tongue —:t now remains fur our new Foreign S;:cretary to do his duty—he has already created a degree of well h:cscrved popularity by the share he had in inter- THE IRITSTER dieting the interference of the " Holy Alliance" with the internal affairs of Spain—he has now to add to that, by a remonstrance against the gross out. rape committed against the English nation, by the unjust confinement of one of its subjects—and in that remonstrance, if he do his duty, he will insist upon reparation for the past, and security for the future—under a threat of such a kind as would male the French Government tremble—inasmuch as its annihilation must follow a rapture with England, we heartily and sincerely hope, though distinctly and decidedly opposed to his general po lities, that in this instance Mr. Canning will so vindicate the insulted dignity of the English cha racter, as to enforce such an comrade as is due to it in the present flagrant case.. The advantage or propriety of prosecution for the publication of works impugning the established Re ligion has been doubted—we have already stated our opinion that in some instances it may be necessary, to prevent the uninformed being misled by plausible illusions, they may not be competent to detect; but we were not prepared to suppose, that under the mild and tolerant Government of George the Fourth the powers of the Inquisition could have been exercised —the powers of that Institution, the destruction of which is the brightest trait of all the others in the character of the late glorious Spanish Revolution— yet such, we find, h.& been the ease in Edinburgh, where a meeting, held for the purpose of con stituting a Society of Face-thinkers, was interrupted by the Sheri attended by the police, the leaders taken into custody, and the audience dispersed, after giving their names and addresses. We wait for fur ther particulars—but from what we yet know, it seams to us that the Sheriff has passed the bounds of his duty—we believe that. no law of the United Kingdom will justify such interference—nor dot e think there ought to , exist any power in this world which might dictate to a man by which road he should. seek happiness in the next !. Upon the sentence of Bridle, the ruffianly gaoler of Ilchester,. we say nothing, for nothing is needed— the virtue and political impartiality of the Jlydges• at present composing the Court of King's Bench, can not be placed in a stronger light than will be re fleeted upon their memories, by a contrast between the sentence passed upon Henry Hunt (SO months' imprisonment and heavy sureties• for three years) and that upon the miscreant who tortured the prisoner who was committed to his. custody, a fine of fifty pounds, and no sureties at all H ! Private letters from Verona, of the 10th instant,. mention, that Congress is proceeding with dispatch in the discussions and arrangements for which the Diplomatists have assembled. The conferences have been frequent and long, tvLich have given rise to a variety of rumours, but, as resting on a slender foundation, they should be received With due cau tion. These have produced so• much agitation and stock-jobbing speculation, that, to put an end to the alarm, it is the intention, it is said, of Congress to close its business as soon as possible. The best founded reports are favourable to the maintenance of peace, and the utmost cordiality exists among the Allied Sovereigns, on whom depends, if not the destiny, at least the tranquillity, of Europe. So long, however, as Congress continues sitting, many circumstances may arise to disturb its harmony, us there are many conflicting interests to consult in its arrangements. The settlement of matters relating to Turkey, it is believed, are on the point of being adjusted ; but we doubt much if they will give satis faction to the Christian community of Europe, who have taken so lively an interest in tl:e affairs of the persecuted Greeks. France, the letters affirm, has yielded to the general necessity and desire of peace, which has been strenuously urged by the united re• presentations of Austria, Russia, Prussia, and Great Britain, which accounts for the raving find anger of the French Ultra Journals. It is expected that Congress will not sit beyond the second week in December, when a solemn Declaration, we are as. snred, will be published by all the Allied Power s , calculated to settle and satisfy the different nations of Europe with respect to all their views and objects. We confess we are sceptical on this point, and are anxious to know the arrangements, particularly with respect to Turkey, Greece, and Naples. • An Ordinance has been issued by the King of the Netherlands, directing that as Flemish is the language of the arrondissements of Brussels and Louvain, all public functionaries who ) by the tat of January, 1823,, are not masters of that language, shall be displaced ;- that, all public pleadings, arrests of Government, civil contracts, and acts, shall, from the time above specified, be drawn np in Flemish. We believe that this ordinanee will be agreeable to. the great man of the inhabitants of the countries specified; but at. it is fatal to the numerous French whir are employed in the courts, bureaus, and offices of Brussels,. it is of rouse most clamorously decried by them and their adherents; and a hot paper war has commenced on the subject. CIERISMN SLAVERY —The following is an ex tract of a letter from Tunis, dated ()etcher 21.-... " On the . l7th inst. arrived here the Sardinian brig Geacia Capt.. Antonia Luira Niale. from Smyrna, in 20 days, with soldiers; also the Maltese brig Due Cughti, Capt. Chiassuro, from Constantinople and Smyrna, from the latter place in 20 days, with silk manufactures, &c. Both these vessels bring a num. bee of unfirrtunate Greek slaves! prinepally young girls, destined as presents to the Bantu, and buys, all under 10 years of age,. who have been cirei.m cised. What appears most extraordinary is, that this nefarious vitae in Christian blood is not only carried en under the flags of the holy alliance, but. the two vessels in question were actually escorted from Smyrna to Cape Passer() by an Austrian ship of war. On the sth inst. the Bey of Tunis laid an embargo on all shipping in this Regency until his. two new frigates, the Hamra. and Hasania (built at Marseilles), and a large sciambecco, should be ready fir sea.;. those vessels sailed on the 16th inst. for the Levant ; the frigates having each 4 4 guns, and 400 merr; the sciambecco, 6. guns and 125- men. P.S. A large Swedish brig has just come in from Sweden, with presents to this Govern ment. The statement which lately appeared in the jour nals, that the Archduchess Maria Louisa had made her appearance at Verona, has no doubt been noticotL by most of our readers. We have heard that she appears there to claim from the Allies the execution ofthe testamentary dispositions of Napoleon in favour of her son, and that this claim. has occasioned. very great embarrassment to the French Ministers there. The Duchess of Wellington received the intelli gence of the entire restoration to health of her hus band early in the week, through a letter received by the Dukes sister, Lady Anne Culling Smith, writ ten ahont the 9th instant. In this letter his Grace says—" I expect to leave this (Verona) on the 14th inst. for England." The Duchess of Wegington is with her family at Strathfieldsay.. QUICK Tasertlxvo. oft A ►. VERY LATE. DUCKER: —According to the Court news, about five o'clock on Sunday uftenwou, the Duke of Cambridge took leave of the King at Brighton, and set. off fur Lon don. Another account states, that on• Sunday even ing the Duke of Cambridge arrived in town from Brighton, and dined with Sir Thomas Hislop. in Bolwn•stseet. SHREWSBURY ELECTlON.—Thursday lust the no mination of a candidate tbr the vacant seat in the representation of the county of Salop, took place at Shrewsbury. J. C. Pelham, Esq. was then put in nomination by the Hun. and Rev. Richard Hill, Mr. Whitmore proposed William bacon Childe,Eq. Both the candidates addressed the meeting at con siderable length. The High Sheriff requested a show o f hands, which was greatly in favour of Mr. Chili.'., partizans who were very roughly treated by the mob. SI-104:XING MURDER.—The 1011-gate at Aylesbury had been kept by au aged couple, who it appears were imposed its the neighlgsurbood 10 have accumulated consult's:Mk sum towards tlae support of their declining vearF. The house not having been opened at a much later hour than 11SU11I on Wedutxley tttttt Mug, -It alarm was excited iii the minds of the nriglrl goes, *Mute of whom forcing their way into the house, proceeded to the apartment where the old people tivually slept, where a dreadful appalling spectacle presented itself—the curl y of the old man tying on the Boor at the foot of the bed, the throat cut, weltering in blood••—auil the body of 1111. her throat also cut, lying on the bed, coveted with blood. The intelligence was instantly forwarded to Aylesbury, where messengers weir despeiched in every direction 10 scour all contiguous places in search of the perpetrators of the horrid deed, cud hand-bills, r,ffaing a reward of 1001. lot their discovery were quickly pus iu circulation. ~..
