CON lINEN I AL POLITICS. e•-• ! ...4 • a . VATRACT or A LATTER 1111011 Pall% DEC 13. General Guilleminot is expected in Paris in & few days.— His star at Sladrid has been prolonged by the important besisess intrusted to him of forming a treaty with th e speisis Government for the military occupation of Spain be Fraech troops. The negotiations on that point, which, considering tile sitnatine of the parties, may be said, like frith reciprocity, t he all on one side, are now bronght to • coorlosion. The French Government leaves 40,000 men in Strain (instead of the 39,000 at first talked of,) and with A s ; force occupies not only the line of fortresses along the ',woes, hut the mast important commercial towns along both the Atlantic and Me literranean coast. St. Sebastian, p ere pelun3, Santona, F'gueras, Barcelona, Tarragona, will all be garrisoned by Frenchmen, an I the ports of Ferrol, Corunna, Cadiz, dialers. Carthagena, Alicant, and Valencia, will likewise have French garrisons. Thus our merchants in Spanish ports, and our trade with Spain, will h e lpubjected for years to French surveillance,and not a ship or a bale of goods will be admitted without the permission of the French Government. France pays her army of occ tt potion at the usual rate of the peace establishment, and all the extra expenses necessary on active service are to he de frayed by Spain. Of course that wretched country. already impoverished by despotism and disorders, and declared by its wren:hid Ooverninrnt to be bankrupt, will be obliged to find suppertfor4o,ooo foreigners. IVhen France w,a occupied by -Foreign troops, between the years 1815 and 1818, the coalitions and the terms of the occupation were fixed by the Allied Governments. On the present occasion one member of the Alliance is permitted to invade and possess the Peninsula in any manner it pleases. As France can maintain 40,000 siren in Spain withant any expense, and can• this* perpetuate her influence while she strengthens her army. it is not likely that the military occupation of spais•wlll cease so soon as that of France, though the anitionnier term of it is the same. It is said, hot , shor,the Congress which will meet at Paris in the winter, to dieisfe - on the affairs of South America, will offer its %kite on the attain; of Spain. I formerly mentioned to Jan shit a second Congress of Ministers was to be held is* beginning of next year on the affairs of Greece. The idat of this Congress was at first fixed either for Vienna* or Paris ; but the Emperor Alexander, in his late in.erviety with the Emperr•r brancis„ obtained from that Alonarai that it should take place at Petersburg's. It is ntir - wn that Metternich, the soul of the Austrian Cabinet - and the "viceroy over" the Emperor, was absent (rem the Imperial tete-a-tete at Csernowlrs.

Letters from Havanna were received yesterday, dated theathultimo. By the most recent arrivals from Vera One, icwas ascertained that the firing upon the town from the Castle continued op to the 13th of October, with very litths propped of an accommodation between the contending wain. _ I here tonal am, 'feel hostilities hail, however, awsketitd the highest degree of animosity in the Mexican Government against the old Spaniards. A decree had been iasnerl for the expulsion of the whole of them from the territory of Ilextco. allowing a term of n inety days to these who ir:rtdided to embark for Spain, and forty days to those whO Medirated taking refug e in Cuba. It is also stated in acute fetter , that the lexicon Authorities had deter mined -on confiscating all the effects of the old Spaniards, to snswer,pie injury done to the town of Vera Cruz ; hut others merely describe the confiscation as a threatened pe natty against those who remain in the canntry beyond the perio Is named in the decree of expulsion. Another important conseqn-nee has followed the attack **Nora Crux, in pitting an end to the negociations carried oval Jalapa, between the commissioners from the mother country and the Mexican Government. The sittings were inserroptekss soon as iatelligence of that event arrived.— The contrMssioners left the place shortly after, and embark• ed st Alvarado for ti ah, where they arrived on the bib alt., on their way to Spain. A fleet of six vessels of war, and two transports wi h troops, provisions, and war like stores, sailed frees Havanna on the 31st of Octeherito the aid of the Spaniards in the Castle of St. Juan de (Aloe. It was the g . I opinion, as Admiral Laborde was with this het ) that all the ports in the Mexican Hoff would be• blockaded as soon as the plan of operations could be amaged. • A state of active warfare is therefore likely to ensue between the Spaniards and the Mexicans, through the juts-position of the naval and military commanders in Cabe, (who had retired thither from the fruitless attempt ea Colombia,) without any orders for that purpose from 111 e pother country. _ ildrxicans are said to he consolidating themselves Mt a settled and uniform Government.

WKIIURNIC repeited the oh , 4errationg lie made in Limerick, revecting the non-attendance of the Chief Constables. The Court adjourned to the 13th of Jan. next, to be holden at Limerick. John Lscy and Patrick 1 ynch, who were convicted on the 27th of October last, at Six mile bridge, with Cornelleus Ke liher, and thrill others. for attacking and violently treating J. Cashin, caretaker to D niel Find, Esq. at Craaroe. ncar Tells, were discharged in opn Court, on Monday after a long address from Mr. Illackburne, hi which he dwelt with great force and elognenct on the clemency shown by Government to wards these roe 1, and the reasons which led the Government to commute their sentence. Our expectation of returning peace and tranquillity in this county has been somewhat diminished by several late occurrences. Amongst others, we learn from a Cor respondent, that, oo Sunday evening last, between eight and nine o'clock, lights were perceived on the mountains near the new barrack at tilanisheen, where a detachment of the 311th Regim-nt is at present stationed. Piquet, and patrols from this party, accompanied by the police stationed at Olanisheen, were on the alert, as usual, anti searched several bonses in the neighbourhood, but without discovering any thing irregular amongst the inn] ttos.— About two o'clock, however, on Monday morning, the sentry at the barrack perceived two or three men approach inr, whom he challenged, and receivieg no answer, retreated to the•door, and called the guard, who, on turning out and pursuing, ssw about twenty men running away, and getting inn) a large wood at Caitle Oliver, into which it was impossible to follow them with any prospect,of success; but it cannot be doubted that these men had it in con:enipla , ion to surprise the military, whom they supposed to be but very few, in the absence of the patrol. On Sunday night last, an alarm was given to the mili tary on duty in Newmarket, County Cork, that a murder was committed in or near the town. A party immediately proeeeeled in the direction of the bridge, where they fmnd four men in their shirts, whotti they took into custody, but at the time the account came eh, the body had not been found; it is supposed they threw it over the bridge, which is a considerable height. PREMEDITATED MURDER.—On WedneMilly evening, ahont seven o'clock, a most respectable farmer, named Callahan, residing near Halb illy, in this county, on returning from the fair of Tipperary, was most brutally murdered within one mile of that tnwn.—Some people in company with him were pelted with stones and forced to withdraw, till tile murderers should effect their purpose. He was on horsebaek, and a man of Mr. Massy's sitting behind him—this than was deliberately ordered to dis mount and yet away out of s'glit before they commenced. the work of destruction. An inquest was to have beets hell on the holy yesterday. hnt we have nal yet learned the result.—(Lintecick Chronicle.) Among the cases brought forward for investigation yes-, ferday at the Clonanel Petty Sessions Court, was one which deserves publicity. It was a complaint preferred by three bailiffs, named Doody, Conroy (nine.: generally known by the name of Boughrion) and Bork", agalnst three men, psrishionet s of the Rev. Mr. Carey, Rector of Danunglimore, for a rescue of property under seizure for Tithes. On the case bring investigated. it appeared that one of the proposed to the defendant that, by giving them (the bailiff-) a sum of money, they would forego the seizure, observing, at the time, that Mr. Carey's Interests were of little import- ance to them. The bribe not being forthcoming, two of the bailiffs were about to drive the cattle, when the third interfered, and desired one of the defendants to resist, which he did accordingly, and for this a summons was issued. One of the Bench said, that 'Liras a common practice for bailiff. who were entrusted with the execution of warrants obtained under.decrees, to desist, where the sligliest shew of opposi tion was manifested, and having obtained a summons from a Magistrate, would are to quash the matter on receiving a certain sum of money. This being the feeling of the Bench, and it appearing that the conduct of the complainants in this instance was grossly improper, the case was dismissed. mesh to the satisfaction of every pet yon present—the Noble Chairman observing, that lie hoped the complainants would not come before them as bailiffs again. Mr. Carey was present during the investigation, and stated that his object to bringing foroard the case was to ascertain if the bailiffs had acted improperly; his suspicions baring been confirmed, he withdrew any tithe warrants which they might have had in their poitoPsion belonsiiir to him. An actiie Magistrate suggested to those who might find it necessary to take out Civil Bill Decrees, to entrust the " execution: of thent to more respectable persons than the bailiffs of Clonntel, titan whom there was not a greater set of scoundrels in the country."—(U kernel Heruld.)

WOBURN', Montle; Dec, 15.—As soon as the estisenger• arrived' at Woburn with intelligence that the Jury were coming, all was bustle to get the rooms and beds in readiness. The representative of the Sheriff of Middlesex, with his son, arrived early this morning to meet the Uader Sheriff of this county (in whose custouy the property of Battlesden notlio), to make arrangements fur the Jury viewing the house. Almut five o'clock the Jury begsa to arrive, three at a time, from all parts of the county of Middlesex, some of them with their servants in livery. From this time the George was all alive—gentlemen calling to be sheen) their rooms; the best, of course, were soon token up; then tame the double bedded room*, whicb so,ne did not much like, bust rather preferred going out. Towards seven o'clock, Mr. Whitmarsh, the Chief Commissioner, with Messrs. Moberly and Collier, the Solicitors for and against the Commission, wised. The Solicitors' assistants, fur the purpose of skewing, helped to increase the numbers, and at half past eight the Foreman arrived with two gentlemen of the Jury in a travelling sarilage, having left London be tween three and four o'clock. _ _ The piny being now all complete, began to arrange proneedtegs for the morrow, agreeing to breakfast at half past right o'clock ; they separated to different rooms, anti ret red to rest, each one at his own time. Tuesday Morning, December 10.—All things being In readi ness, the cavalcade started from the George, at Woburn, at half past hide ; the Commissioner and Solicitors in the first c raise ; the Foreman awl two Jurors in the second, followed by six other chaises ; some other chaises, as I am informed, joined on the way, but positive orders were given that but eight chaises should be admitted, to secure which, instead of driving to the grand entrance, the procession turned to the right under a gateway leadins into the stable yard. where save ral persons were stationed to close the gates immediately the eight chaises had entered. Here there was some little stop. page, (Ajar; to the entrance being so low as hardly to admit some of the (Maisel. The Under Sheriffs of the comities had previously arrived, and were is attendance, chili their officers, to see that no im, roper persons were admitted. After •light iug from their oarriages the Jury were conducted to the back entrance, where two passages meet ; one being boarded up, it was explained as having been done by the Sheriff to prevent any communication with that part of the house. They were next conducted into a large empty room, apparently newly built and unfinished, intended as a picture gallery. The carving and sculp ture of a marble chimney piece in this room was truly grand.— Passing from this room, and turning to the left, you enter a small neat little room, used by Sir U. as a sitting room, on the mantle stlelfof which were an ittnumerabl quantity of c mrlosities,from a copper tobacco stopper with the head of Mr. Wilkes on time top of it, to the niagnificient Uttina yaws. There were also many cariosities in the windows; and considering that all the furniture ha•l been sold ender an execution by the Sheriff, this rosin did not look so much amiss.—Di rer tly on the left, adjoining this, is the housekeeper's room, now used as a store - room for curiosities, and so foil that the Jury waded thianigh them knee deep. Returning down this passage, and' keeping to the left, you come into the grand entrance hall; which is stored nearly • full (only ' leaving a nit row passage) of large packing cases, which, at first, the gentlemen were desired only to look at ; but I not being sstistied with looking at the outside, they insisted upon being introduced to the contents: an attempt, how ever, was made to induce them to pass on, as it would take some weeks to examine the contents of them, and there 'mess much before them necepary to mrline, as they orpoiddie able to get through. But a British Jury is not to he. frightened from looking into hoer', from the lea of not heiskg, ahle.to complete their business; they took ham mers and tools ant of the hands of the attendants, and went not long _before they satisfied themselves of the contents of some of the eases, although many of the higher ones appeared momentarily in danger of coming down; had such been the case, suite of the gentlemen would have had goo l carne to remember Sir li. s packing. cases as long as they lived, which, perhaps, would not have been very Late' fleeing satisfied their curissity here, they entered the bath room on the right, which contains a very valuable collection of marble statuary. marble tables, mossic table and pieces of all sorts of marbles. Adjoining this is the billiard room, which, like the ball, was full of furies and eases, directed to Sir U., having come from diffrreut parts of the country, !luny of which were opened fur the inspec•ion of the Jury. On the same dour, and adjoining the last, is the state drawing room, in it hint is a magnificent organ. chandelier, &e. &c. and a number of boxes and packing cases, containing an immense quantity of treasures of various sorts, packed with great care, some of which were examined. i'lle walls of this room are much dilapidated by the net. You' nest enter a passage lea log to the oak dimming room; un one side of tlifs passage is a very-lorge and elegant library, full of curiosities of all sort., which the Solicit tr stated Would be fully explained inAlorocouisoof the evidence. You nest enter the oak stens. 'Baring roo.n, which the Under Sheriff of Bedford was pleased to in'orto the company was the handsomest room in the county. This room is so full of pictures, that it is with difficulty yeti can a:aye along, many of them are originals by the first masters, one, in particular, by Ruben*, which will be referred to hereafter, in alt probability, in I the course of thie evidence. Many of these cost Sir O. large autos of money, they are mostly untrained. Return.' ing from this room into the gallery, you ova enter the parlour. into whii.a Sir U. never suffered any one to enter but himself. He occupied it much, and gave his orders and received communications through a square in one window, made to open and shut. As this roo.o will be principally referred to in the evidence, we must leave those who are anxious to know its contents, to receive their information in open Court. Ascending the grand staircase you enter the ante-room leading to Sir ti.'s bedchamber. —ln this room, the Jury (or 1 should rather say the company, which, notwithstanding, the strict orders of seclusion given, now aruounted to near forty persons,) were occupied a great length of time. To enumerate the valuable curiosities in this room would far exceed the limits of my time and paper, or it might by some persons be thought improper, but nee curious may rest assured they will have it in evidence. The varieties of watches could not be less than 25, from the lowest price to some of the greatest value; the same in snuff boxes, some of which Mr. Green, of Lu Igate Hill, (one of the Jury), was referred to, to know if they were gold, awl which he pronounced to ie such ; others were musical, some with singing birds, &c. &c. The next was Sir o.'s bed room, shown as he, left it in the month of Noveruber, which was the last . time he occupied it. As it will form a principal part in the evidence, I think it desfrable not to notice the things in this room, but to proceed in the ante room (lead. ing into the state bed room.) This appears to have been made a depository for curiosities, and plaister busts, as well as coinsof all sorts. In the suite bed room a box was opened, which the Jury were desired to pay particular atfention to, and to mike memorandums of. Indeed, there was much in this room to occupy their attention fur a . long time. Proceeding up stairs . into the attic, next the observatory, there was a large collection of music stands, musical bells, and sundry other things, ryparently pit: here out of the way ; the whole suit of attics besidos, were quite empty, having been lately Bleared out by the Sheriff. Descending, you enter the tapestry room, the hangings of which are very ancient and costly. Timis room ai•peare to have been used for the pur pose of sorting newspapers, of which there were many' hon. dreds ready • and on. a table in the centre of the room some minerals appeared to have been begun to be arranged ; many specitnens were taken from here, and sealed up, and given in chargeto the Foreman. Torre were some other rooms in the stable yard, which next occupied the attention of time Jury, having been formerly coach houses and Stables, but noirdwriveited into large roonssotitinished, and occupis 'ed as store the rood's Si doors in the house where any pr fperty was, bed been sealed it ith the sheriff's sefils 1. which was not broken,exeept in his presenee,end that of the gentlemen of the Jury ; into which the officers entered with lanterns, and opened the shutters, closing them again when . finished, and sealing the door in the same presence, beford the next seal was broken, as were any packages which were opened of much value. The view, which commenced at te7i, finished at half past one o'clock. when six of the Jury lame. diately started for London (the whole of the carriages having waited in the stable yard.) Those gentlemen who remained . amused themselves in examining the stables, outbuildings, fie, as well as the gardens, 'which are laid out with cmiderab:e •. • taste, as though no expence had been spared. The park was formerly of very greet extent, but is now principally hemp& There appeared to be no lack of servants, and much work co- ' ing forward ; the bustle at the house, of course, brought them all to see what was going forward. The company now returned to Woburn, and partook of a very elegant repast; part of the game was furnished from Battlesden Park, and some was sent • as a present by Mr. Under Sheriff Ling, who appeared unre• witting in his attention to make every thing as comfortable as possible to the gentlemen who had come such a distance from home, and given up their family comforts for the public snr. vice. Some, whose health will not permit them to travel lair, must remain here till tomorrow. L. P. 9. Bir G.'s income is understood to be about 30,001.11. per annum. -r- TO THE EDITOR.
