How often have I informed the King's Alisistets fur two years past, that the Holy Allies were not se be depended on—bow often have I told them, that, Russia was at the bottom of a foul conspiracy —how (re silently declared, that a double confederation had been Mewl against the religion and the vital interests of &Old— that Wellington was a dupe, and Pont) di Bate en impostor at Verona—that the French would 'evade Spain and conquer her because headed by the Priests ....tbat the eventnal ohjec's were y division and plunder Odle South American provinces, and the ascendancy of Bessie in the East of Europe, as a stepping stone to nherior conquest, whilst Hanover was to be the prey of Prussia ? Have I not called upon the King's advisers, and written the strongest letters to his Majesty's cunffilectial Secretary, imploring him to communicate to my most venerated Sovereign, what must inevitably be the alarming results of a system, not more unprecedented for its contra dictory and temporizing policy, than disgraceful and dangerous to the British Empire. That Empire will now judge, whether my viers were correct, unsupported as was, esrept by any own mental resources, and a trattrral pesetratiun that has never yet, in a single instance, been proved deceptive ; or whether his Majesty's Ministers have been misinformed by their secret Official Agents, supported at an expellee to the nation of fifty thousand pounds a year, two thirds of whom ought to be for their treachery in coneealingwhati have so long discovered and proclaimed. not only without receiving a Cabinet tip (as they say in the kingdom of Cuhnemara) but actually having expended thousands of my own fortune in defence of the Sovereign and his Empire.

Jokn./Dews. and Wm. Dodd*. were indicted for steal ing is the dwelling house of Mary Mills, a feather bed. and other articles. value 40s. ber property. Mary Mills stated that she keeps a lodging house at No. 2, Dean's Court, St. Martin's in the Fields She lost a feather bed sad ether articles, on the 30th of September last, from a back parlour which was occupied as a hed room, by a man named Watkins. Several boxes had been broken open and the articles in nitration taken away. Witness gave information at Bow Street, and shortly after went to a public house in Great St. Andrew Street, Seven Dials, where ■he saw the prisoner Brown. She told him she wished to speak with him. Prisoner made no answer, but raa through the house and got away. John Watkins corroborated the loss of the property. Edward Stevens,a Bow Street Patrol stated, that be went with Mrs. Mills to No. 14, Vine Street, in consequence of in'ormation he received that thegoods were concealed there. He apprehended the prisoners in the room in which the sheets were found. Dodds was employed cooking some thine in a frying-pan,for dinner. There were two women la the room. Witness said. " Dodds, I have come for von, and I suppose you know what for." Dodds replied, " I know very well, anal bad intended to give myself up in two or three days." The articles were here produced and sworn to by the prosecutrix. George Avis, a patrol of Bow Street, upon examining a hat. left behind by the thieves, immediately exclaimed— * this belongs to Jack the ',abater, a man with a bit out of his nose." Witness apprehended him (Brown), at the corner of Kind Street, Seven Dials. On searching him a crow bar, alias a Jemmy, seven skeleton keys, and a knife were found upon him. Brown in his defence denied all knowledge of the hat, and stated that when accosted by the prosecutrix, at the door of the Marquis of Granby, he did not hear distinctly what she said to him. He therefore walked away without answering her. Dods& called two persons, who cave him a good character.—Guilty of stealing to the value of 311 s. THE STORM OP WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. On Tnesday night, a strong wind prevailed from the west, and went across the island, from the Irish Sea to the German Ocean. The gale continued, with some abatement. through the greater part of the day on Wednesday, and iu the course of that night it increased to a hurricane. We have accounts from Liverpool, Rochdale, Halifax, Hod• dersfield, and Bradford, as well as from the Craven district, all of which concur in representing the storm to hate been dreadful, particularly from three to four o'clock in the morning, when it raged with its utmost fury. Off the Lancashire coats, there were many vessels on shore, and it is feared that toe details, when they arrive, wilt be very dir reding. At Liverpeol,many chimneys were blown down. and several houses cranially unroofed; bat the most allicoire occurrence happened in St. Vincent street, where two ladies, the daeghters of the Rev. C. Winstanley. while asleep in an upper roam, were buried in rains by the falling of chimney epos; the roof, which burst through into their apartment. and killed one of them, a young lady about 20 rears of age, on the spot ; the other, who was the yonnicer sister, was happily extricated without suffering much at - jury. At ()render,. near Halifax, a factory, five s to r i es high, which was building for Mr. Peter Bold, for the pur pose of weaving by steam. was reduced to a ruin. At Had dersield. the roof of the Wesleyan chapel suffered consider able injury ; and at Sotto., in Craven, a new chapel, which was building, and nearly completed for the Baptist emigre* ration at that place, under 14 ministry of the Rev. Joseph Gaunt. bad one of the principal end walk driven in by the violence of the storm, and the sceatliap of the gallery nearly destroyed. At. Burley. In the parish of Headinglev. a stack of ehimweys was blown down upon the roof of Mr. Thack ray's babe, and fell into a room which a part of the Nattily had providentially just quitted. under the apprehension of danger. At Holbeek a chimney f rom an adjoining house fell upon a cottage. and penetrating through the roof, deposited its ponderous materials upon the bed, in which the head of the family and his wife with two children were sleeping; bat though the pressure was so great that the legs of the besides,' were forced throng!' the door, the whole family escaped with their lives, though not without several severe bruises. A vessel, stone laden, belonging to Messrs. Cousin & Co. was sunk in the Leeds and Liver3ool canal, near the brain at Leeds; and another, belonging to Mr. Berry, laden with door ; grain, and tallow, stink in the same canal, near Kildwiek. Several factory and dye-house I chimneys were blown down, and the damage during the night must have beenf immense. At Wakefield the servants of Mr. D. Mande and of Mr. Harrison, narrowly escaped from a stack of chimneys haring burst through the roof and fallen on the beds in both of these houses ; and the roof and • quantity of furniture in the house 'of Mr. heaths's', the banker. whose family were fortunately from home, suffered materially by the falling of no fewer than four chimneys. Several of the hones in St. John's have suffered considerably, and tart of the dye.house of M Holdsworth, on the south side of the Calder, was unroofed. At Doncaster, the sailed' a windmill, though fastened in Gm usual way, Mere pat in motion by the violence of the gale, end the building having taken fire from the friction, was reduced to a shell.—(Geed, Mereury) From the York Herald it appears, that the storm was more tremendous in that city than any that had been experienced there for many years. A poor woman in Petergate was mush injured by the filling in of the roof of a house, and other persons in other parts of the city by similar accidents. Ahont 40 trees were blown down on the New Walk. The steeple of St. Martin's Church, which was undergoing repair, and on which several beautiful pin• nodes had been placed, has suffered much. One of these pinnacles fell through the roof of the church. At Mrs. Morgan's and Mr. Kneoton's houses, in Coney Street, and at a bons* in the Minster yard, the chimneys were blown down and fell through the roofs; and many others were blow. down without Micklegate and other bars. The house of Mr. Wallis, in Petergate, was also ranch damaged; and a wall at the Gas works ' one on the Fultord ro a d, o ne on Bail Hill, and two on Peasholme Green, and a new house' Heworth Moor, and a house without Walmgate Bar, were levelled with the ground. The neighbouring villages, it is understood, bare authored no less, in propur lion, than York. Livaneoot..—lt is presumed the calamities of the night of the kb, last year, so alarmed all persons as to occasion the greatest care to prepare, effectually, for the winter of t►is year. It is a curious coincidence that so tremendou. a gala should have occurred in both years so very nearly at the same time. The family of a poor and bed rid man, named Goring, in Bakehouse Lane, himself, wife, and five children, in one room, were enveloped in the ruins of the roof and chim ney of tie house (No. 9, in that street), and a girl was much bruised and lacerated. The roof was entirely blown off, and a central partition wall hurled on the top of the occupants. The side of a new house, very recently painted, aid ready to be inhabited, on the North Shoe, was blown in; and several others in the were • more or Inns injortd. Four children, in Bridport Street, had sca room is which they slept, when a stack of ' and carried the roof sod room door down story. In Warren Streit, at two o'clock, oarrow escape: the violence of the gale di window. mid the densest exertions prevented the rein of the house. ' The back chimneys of Mrs. D'Agollar's brim Great George Square, fell , through the rooft no fatal accident occurred. In Daulby Street, about thirty yards of a garden Wall wire Wein down, a part of which fell upon the watchmen as he wall passing by. The Henry Hell, steam-packet, was, during the gale, on her way from the Isle of Man to this port, and weathered the storm nansfully. The Lady Stanley steans.packet was considerably damaged by being driven in against the pier. The Chester Chronicle says, the slated roof.; of many houses in this city ere much injured, and the garden wall of Mr- Brace, in Houghton, and a wall in the Post-office yard, are laid pro.trate. On Saturday night, the Prince Llewellyn stesni-packet. between Liverpool and Dublin, was obliged to put intcrHollyliead, during the tremendous gale of Saturday night, crowded with passengetsy The latest accounts inform us that she still remains there.' TI e Predetiek bound from Liverpool to Lisbon, for fruit, ballast, struck upon the rucks near Holyhead, and was totally lost; the crew were saved. The remains of the crew of an American vessel, name unknown, which was upset at sea, were landed at the ,same port. The crew were originally fourteen in number, ten of whom perished, one by one, through fatigue and hunger, having clung to the wreck wail their strength was exhausted. The survivors were sixteen days upon the wreck, eight of which they were without food. MANCHISTER.—Daring the whole of Wednesday night the wind was extremely boisterous ; hut it seems to have been most violent about two o'clock in the morning, when its force was truly tremendous. Many families, terrified by the roaring of the wind, and by the recollection of what occurred last year, left their bed-, and retired for safety to the ground floors of their houses., A factory erecting at Knot Mill, belonging, we understand, to a Mr. Jordan, and of which five stories had been built, was partly levelled to the ground, and the remaining walls were so much shat tered, that they must be almost entirely taken down.— Three or four new houses, near Lower Mosley Street, are completely shattered ; and one near Knot Mill had the gable end hlo oat. The gable end of the new fire proof building, erected by ftlessr , . Hobert, !fill, and Co. adjoining Felkner Street, was partly blown nut, and crud). ell io the roof of an adjoining building. The new factory of Messrs. Appleton an'l Co. in the stone neighbourhood, and which is, about eleven stories high, has sustained very serious injury. The whole of that side which was exposed to the wind is bent inwards, so as to farm a very consider able curve, sod the opposite wall forms a similar torte outwards, thus giving the whole building an appearance of great insecurity. At the house of Mr. 11. Weight, in Oxford Komi, the chimnet•s of the kitchen fell upon the roof, carryi ag with them the floors, Etc. down to the lowest story. Mortunattly Miss W. bad taken the precaution of directing the servants not to sleep in that part of the house; so that no personal injury nas sustained.—Some cot• cages in a course of erection near Strawberry Hill were blotto down. At Rory, a new factory, erecting by %fr. J. Hutchinson, was blown down, Mama to the ground. A warehouse occupied by a Mr. Wood. a manufacturer, experienced a simiier fate. At Rochdale. Ike gable end of a factory belonging to Mr. G. At kinson, was blown down, and a new ` stone one, erecting by Mr. J. Scnoldeld, rece:.ved much adore extensive damage; little accept the gable ends being left stan•ling. Jascu Carron FACTORY BLOWN DOWN.—the high winds which prevailed for 'errant days last past, have been very de solatiog its their effeets at Preston. On the evening of Wed oitsday last it blew a perfect hurricane there, from the north west, and *boat three o'clock in the morning of Thursday the newly erected cotton mill, belonging to Mr. Riley, situate In Fishwick, was blown down with a tremendous crests—scarcely leasing one brick standing. The building was jest covered in, and part of the windows were glasel. The large beams were broken io two, as if only reeds. it is a remarkable co incidence that it should bo exactly twelvemonths since a simi lar accident htppenrd. The loss is this instaace is estimated at 20001. heskes the delay that must occur before the building cgs be raised again. The extensive cotton mill hoildiog by Messrs. Swaioson and Co. near that of Mr. Riley, also suffered severely, the branding having been throws about l inches oat Of thasquare . t. bet it is expected that it will be able to be screwed op. The damage done at Meagre. Swanson and Co.'s will exceed Mi. A great many windows Isere broken in the houses in exposed situations ; and there will be work for the slaters and masons for some days to come. We are happy missing able to state that no lives are lost. Chore ley also felt the effects of the storm, and the Church building there, out of the money granted by Par:isment, is partially blown down, the loss amounting to upwards of 10001. This country and the vicinity of this town have been visited by violent gales of wind on Wednesday night.— Houses have been unroofed, & stacksoverthro an in various directions; two extensile garden walls, belonging to bliss Stnytheman, near the Mount, were blown dowo.—The London and HolyheadMeil to this town was nearly an hour behind its time list night, (a moat unusual circumstance) in consequence of a tree having been burled into the road at Dunchurch, at which the horses took frigb, and the coach was overthrown and broken. No person sustained any injury.—(Shrewsbury Chrunirk.) The weather has assumed a tuncia more wintry aspect since our last. Several heAvy rains accompanied with strong gales of wind have been experienced. particularly on Wednesday night, when 10:1IC snow also tell. Consi derable quantities of snow have, we understand. fallen in the more inland parts of the county.— (Carlisle Journal.) Maw , ' Dec o.—On Wednesday night, the; wach box which bad been placed at the corner of Wellington qnay and Essex Bridge, was blown by the violence of the storm down to Temple Bar. We have not heard that Charley a as an inside passenger. It has been stated to os that on the same bight a party of the patrols., in passing throuzli the Pin:soil Park, were blown into the pond, and out alit rqrain, by the violence of the storm !

On their being delivered, she ordered the young man to write a receipt, and observed, that she in the mean time would take tie goods down stairs to show her mother. Under this pretence, leaving the room, she went out of the house with the goods, and was stopped by Mrs. Jones, who being suspicions of her, waited 'maid..

Hunt, and Probert, agtin occupy the wort meets which they tenanted before they we►e brought into Court on Friday last. Nothing new has occurred respect ing them—they are guarded as vigilantly as before,and that system of regulations which the inagistraies had thirteht proper to lay down for the gaol has not been relaxed in the slightest degree. The events of Friday have had a sensible effect upon the spirits of all the prisoners. who are more depressed than before. This may he att•ihntcd to the certainty, which they toast naw feel, that their fate must be decided one way or other early next month, ter they hid entertained hopes that the trial ssould be pen poned to the next assizes. Though Timetell's firmness• has not deserted him, there is a great subduedness of manner visible upon him nos. Hunt's spirits have sunk tery low. He disclaims the I-vity which he says was um Justly ascribed •to him on the 'early part of the pro ceeding. Probert Las become very glawny. He affects to repel indignantly the insinuation that he has purchase I his own safety . at the pike of the lives of his colleagues.. He denies having given any evidence that can affect thern, and attributes his not being made a defendant in the capital charge entirely to his innocence. Though Mrs. Probert has been at large since Saturday, she has not sere► her husband, nor has she expressed a wish to have any= conversation with him. Probed requested that he plight have an interview with her on some domestic affairs; tett the Magistrates have decided against it, as they ire both witnesses in the cause. Me. Wilson, the governor, has received instructions not to admit her if she should apply to see her husband. INTERVIEW BETWEEN SIR EDMUND NAGLE, &c. AND THURTELI.. On Friday last, the expected day of trial of the prisoner* indscted fir the murder of fur. tVeare, Sir Edmund Nag. le received a subposaa from the Solicitor of Thnrteil to atter.d the trial. The object of serving the subpoena on the gr.l - Admiral was, as we presume, to obtain from him a good character, as Thurtell had served under hint on board the Adamant in 1409, when Sir Edmond had the naval command of the Leith station. The snhprena not arrive at Carlton Niece until twelse o'clock on Friday, where Sir Edmond Nagle was in attendance on his 314jeetY. Although Sir Edmund was quite unaware of the ot.je-t of reqeirine his attendance at Hertford, he immediate:y avplied tor and obtained the gracious permission of his Royal Master to obey the legal summons. At a few urinates after fonts o'clock on the same day, he arrived at Hertford, accompanied by his relative, Mr. Nugent, Me Counsel tlentral for Chile.— Yhe trial was, as our to e are aware, porponed at an early hour. It was requested of Sir Edmund to visit th• prisoner (Thurtell); at the gaol, to ascertain whither he could remember and identify him or not. A proposal was made to introduce him to the prisoner, where he might see him with the aid of cani:e light. To this proposal the Gallant Officer, with becoming propriety and discretion, declined to accede, and said, that if he were to identify the prisoner he should prefer to do so by day light. Accordingly Thurtell was bronchi before h:m into die ' I court Yard of the (Jae% accompanied by his solicitnr, Mr. Fenton. He was at this time not handcuffed, but the chains were not removed from his legs. On seeing Sir Edronnd Nagle, behoovesl respectfully to him, took ul his hat, and did not pot it on again until requested by Sir • 'Edmund to do so. Martell then expressed pleasure 'teeing Sir Edmund Nagle in such good health, and asked if he did not remember him ? Sir Himont! looked att-n -&ell at him, and said be did not. Thurtell then in•:- mated that he had served him, when he held the navel command at Leith,ae a nurine officer on board the A l mint. Sir Edmond replied Omit it might be • so, and that he did not recollect ever tO hire.seen him before. Mittel' pro ceeded with a view otaidieg the memory of the gallant Admiral to a recollection of him, to mention several cir cumstances, such as a fete on boat! the Adamant, and par ticular expressions used by hitn on various occasion...— Sir Edmond, whose memory is remarkably accurate, and retentive, remembered that such a fete had taken place, and also bore testimony to the aeon racy of the expressiuns which Thurtell recollected to have fallen from him. The conversations to which There'dl alluded, were fur the most part held on the (parte' sleek of the Adamant, which c i rcumsta n ce furnished strong presumption, that he was at 'east on board at the time. Tlonrtell did not appear 4.5. composed or surprised at Sir Edmund's not recollectinx him. lie inquired after two Officers •who hail been eons tastes with him on board the Adamant, and Who hal since been promoted to the rank of Captain, Tlittroil seemed to think that the i r ev idence ,would toe very arailattle . . ~~. • 4 1 the same vicinity If the Miallenge be not iszcepted within ten days from last Ss- t f i faith at his appruachinz trial. lie expressed reg.ei as turday, Holton says hr will decline ever running again. sod the trouble hg had given Sir Kilinuoti Nacle in cuunag tad scarcely left the will deem the mac a coward w h o c h a ll enges hi m aft e r that time, from London, which he assured him he would not is sae, :k of chimneys fell, - then, had he not supposed that Sir Edmund would have own to the second Sprats and herrings were its such sbun lance at Dili/ifs- recollected him.
