The County Chronicle steles that the Rector of a parish in Sussex has bad a tru- boll footed again .t. him for a hor rible crime. The Sussex Advertiser, in its notes to cor respon•lenta, has the following reference to the shocking affair : —" We beg to a• knowledge the receipt of a memorial of the parishioners of Ewburat, tonchinx the alleged cri minal conduct of their Rector, together with the ease (as supported by evidence) and Dr. Swahey's opinion thermos; but as they exhibit matter which (although directed by a meeting of the principal parishioners, with only use dis senting voice.) cannot with any decency or propriety be laid before the public, we shall dismiss the dissasting Sub ject by observing, that the bill of indictment for Sodomy, returned by the Grand Jury into Court, at our last Melees. a true fill, was grounded on the proceedings above at hided to." The Thetis and the Cone`ance frigates, commanded by Captains Ronganvilic and S did Simon, are charged with a similar mission to Heneral Morales add the Spanish Admiral commanding the equation stationed off Huard, and we expect from it the same results.
