Mt ilex's take unissuill pains to explain and soften down the mortification of the repulses they have experienced in their various applications for Coadjutors, from the two Noble Dukes. The re fusal at Northumberland Muse was so polite— that a Duke can be indignant without rudeness, is not, however, very difficult to conceive. As to lA. F. Sexism', it seems that the whole of the regret is with himself, fur the embarrassment occasioned by his insisting on Ms name being erased from the Cuusinisaion. Quirk, quibble, and special plead. ing, are the characteristics of the present Adinini. stration, which is now, in fact, mope:lied of Bar. rasters. Were our Ministers to apposes in natural costume, the Treasnry Bench might he mistaken fur a Court of Law, rather than the (louse af Commons. The quibble, by which the appointment of Lord F. S►Encea is attempted to be explained, is prucisuly of tht same species with that by which Lord G nsm v ILL' was solicited to assist in the forma. tiun of s Ministry, in which lie nu uu: required to take any further part.

Tut election fur Chancellor of Oxford will c•'mmence at nine o'clock, of the 13th December, and, by the statutes of the University . , must finish on that day.

Yesterday a telegraph dispatch was tent from the Admiralty to Plymouth, that all ships of war ready fur sot, should sail immediately fur the Me. diterratican.

Mr. Joan BOORBAM FREHE is now my Lord Marquis of Union, a title conferred upon hint by the Spanish Junts, for his services in negotiating the Trusty of Nice between Spain and England.

POILTUSOOTII, Noe. 114.—Arrited the coin. frigate, from Norfolk., in Aaterica ing bume Mr. Erskine, who made Pease with America. The War Afinister, his successor, Mr. Jackson, opened his pleadings with the American Secretary early in the last month, and the result of his first conferences are come home in the 4fri mine. What they breathe Is conjectured to be peaceable ; but the dispatches do not include all Mt points which Mr. Jackson had to insist on. I The British packet was doubted a long time to bring the duplicate of these dispatches, so im portant were they cunsidered. Tire Spanish Ambassador of Ferdinand the Vllth,Don Onnes, had arrived in the Chesapeake, in a Spanish frigate. It was tunsidere.l very doubtful whether the American Government would receive him. PLYKOUTH, Nov. 23.—Arrived the Ifera r orl this port, Captain Fotheringham, from Prince Ed. l ward's Island, with lumber, for the Dock-yard ;1 the Lord Dom;lin, of London, Joseph Low, Master, from Waterford, bound to Newfound. land, with provisions, captured by a French pri.

On the 15th inst. in the evening, the neutral vessel before.ntentioned, was boaroed by the Seine frigate ; and the next morning she fell in with ilte above French squadron, and was boarded by one of the frigates, called Lo Rrnontee, but coffered her to proceed on her voyage. They af. terwards steered to the westward. I COVENT GARDEN THEATRE. Nothing can satisfy the various agents of Ibis Theatre. When the house was filled nightly, they complained of noise and tumult --anti now that the ceperiment has been made of leaving the Pit to the undisturbed possession of the Blearnsiths, they exclaim, 44 What, nn money ? if this be 44 peace and quietness, let's have no more of it—Noise and tumult are preferable to empty ss stoney boxes." The Performers last eight had an opportunity' , of performing to almost empty benches. The Bones had the usual display of Or.lertys, of vulgar females, and ill dressed men. The Way to ga Married and Dan Jaws, went off with eclat, with the occasional iisterrupti of the fee who had parted with their money fur silmissiosi—many of whom, not entirely swaying of their Company, quitted the Weise lief ,re the performances con. eluded. The only marks of disconteut displayed last night were those of 4 ' hissing." As se are miablieto discover any reason to be. lime that the temper of the to.sa is changed, we conclude that this stillness is the calm that precedes the tempest—fur .it is impossible to suppose that the Public, after having ea. pressed, during forty -nine nights, their disap. probation in so strong a seamier, should sad. I daily have changed their opinions, without any nbitious case for such an alteration. When the Managers throw open the privileged inchsures, the discontent of the Public will, perhaps, be allayed, hut never, as we apprehend, till tOrit concession to the universal real public opinion is made.---Do the 'Proprietors tuink so If/easily of the People to believe, !het after being exposed to the assaults of hired rulhans--dragged tonow.strect—inspriassised in Tuthill Fields subjected to prusecutioes for expressing their di.approbstion in a public Theo. Ire, they will submissively crouch at the feet of the privileged Proprietors of a Playhouse!? They might know that there are yet amongst a British Public, nuniereus ittdiridusly in a hum, all love of Public Freedom is not extinct.

G4LINDO AND MRS. SIDDUVS• Several of Iles newspapers, have been aksoltitelf erwwded with " eetracts"frum the pamphlet of Mrs. GaLtwoo —that is, with wire copies of many of the letlera of Mrs. Slogans, whose head, mid heart, hare alike received the due tribote of praise and homage. Whether the devotion of the " valuable calm"?' of malty of these papers was grateitous, we shall not enquire a we, by no means, wish to be understood as insineittnit a MA. chat that such was the fact—there seesite.l, hove. ver, an eatraordinary degree of readinctt on thin occasion, as the extracts &neared its toe !tlording . Papers, en the very day succeeding that on which the pamphlet appeared. The transactions of private life are not the seba jects to se hich we wish to appropriate the columns of this Paper —hut the dispute between these Ladies having now become the daily ',abject of newspaper ' commentary, we otay be ',ermined slightly to no. lice the cootroversy. That the tai noon* awe IP nut in the interest of the Kemble family, is of deal, from the dismissal, by that disinterested and patriotic Print, of the substotce of the pain. phlet, with the concise decision of its being replete With libellous metier—% hiie it gives a studious display of thug epistolary effusion - 4, so cridslabla to the head and heart of Mrs. !ifooofirs. The letters in Mn.s GaLttoo's Kimpblet sre have read, anti, viewiog them as unpremedit Ited composition‘, they are certainly entitkl to rank with the epistolary correspondvoce 411 other isel!.. *located ladies—but we cannot perceive any of that pre-eminence whit h calls fora cem i ,liwent to the head of Mrs. SI DDONS.

Such, in our opinion, arc the letters of Mrs. SIDDONS: they are correct, and alternately lively, grave, or affectionate, as the subject requires—but there is no transcendent merit by which they are entitled to he distinguished from the drrsions of other individuals in the same rank of society. Mrs. Stomas's has enjoyed, thrirtighout her life, - - - - opportunities of literary aegoireonnt so pre -enti - neni, that these produetioirsare certainly - nu/ saw. passin al w OP! ex l )eciations which ;eight reasonably have h en furtnAl•by the public. The unhappy difference, st bich hs probably eimp bittered the existence of both these L t,lies, is its. sidled in considerable niyvery. Mr,.

Of this art tIr.GALIVDo VAS a professor, and up: sin that occasion, the master of Mrs. Stpoosts, " srAo could not be instructed shile any person looked on." This cieenntstance, and the inces•ant attention of Mr. G. to Mis. S. excited painful emotions in the breast of Nirs. G. We know the farce taf jealudsy—we know that " 'riles tight its air 66 Are to tar jeatuas rolaratatiuell WM/ 66 As praub Huly Writ."

In support of this charge, Mrs. C.'S . assertions respecting the behariuur of Mr. G. dyyd. Mrs. S. at her house at Paddington...4 scene at an in a currirle in Leyland, naturally mita much curiosity. On these points we can torn no judAnient. If Mrs. G. has made these speciAc charges, ra ithout having it in her power to prove the facts, her conduct cannot be too highly censured. But if, on the other hand, the facts should be substantiated, her case is male out. An indiscreet friend, it is sail, and we believa justly, is more greatly to be dreaded than an avowed eit;irty. Of this we Ittivc a priptf, in a Letter, wh.ch appeared this morning in th:' slmpla Print. dui daily puffer of euveut.Gardeti sad the The assei lions in this letter, signed reritw, may ur may nut be true—that the letter is fuul►sh we ktsor:•.-and such, we conceive, must be the opinion of the Very party in whuse &Imam it WAS written. .....
