THE STATESMAN. 77 - 7 - pßii • t TI: e thWIESPONDENCE. Paris, nee O. The ltst rt p•ir , , from Troppau have greatly disap rinteil ear I It..s. sho had in their extreme riadunt damned the r e‘ohition of Naples, and hunted down sod hanged ,L.• , et,i from one end of Italy to the other. It is truly laughable to hear them abtts int the soirreiL:tis for such a conduct, which they tall a &too-rails weahning to legitimacy. Nothing, scrottlimf to th •ir jualzincut, was easier to be done than to overturn a I:ma/4 of Jaeolpiss, who had re. Bolted a.zitist their King, and imminently against th,•ir God : However, the holy allies have thought etherwise than the Ultra-wise men of Paris; not be cause t heir intentions are better, but because they know better the real state of things. For whatever m ay be said of Hoes from France and England, any one with a little common sense will perceive, that the true fact is the fear of meeting in Italy the seine fate that the French armies met in Spain, viz. a national war, which might have destroyed 200,000 Austrian shim i n twelve months. But such truths will not I easily find their way into the brains of our royalist pure. They are so brave (es all the world knows) that they can never conceive how the mighty Emperor could he affraid of attacking Naples. However it may be, you will imagine what their rage is, in seeing liberty quietly raising her head in the two Peninsulas, whilst they are using their utmost efforts to drown her in the Sore. If the party who have now la bottle en main were MI he considered as the French nation, we might indeng be called a nation of children, if not of monkeys. They cannot see or hear of any thing that has been done for these 30 years without busting into a violent passion ; and I believe they would even give up the aorernir of their glorious campaigns in Flanders and Le rendce if they could silence history upon all we have done without thews. But if on one side they are demolishing, as fast as they can, those institutions we have so dearly bought, on the other they neglect no thing to cover us with ridicule. You hear of nothing bat of .4liseionseires, Sensinairee, Comrade, ke.: in a word, if they do not metamorphose the whole nation into priests and monks, it is nut their fault. They are particularly successful on that account in Nor mandy. That province has always been fertile in hypocrisy ; and you have had a sample of it among the emigrant priests in London, nine-tenths of whom were Normans. We now look anxiously to the approaching meet ing of the Chanabres, ani I must add, not without fear t f,,r we may foresee how far these Uultrs-wise &piles will p if they are oat arcked by the Eng. Private arlvices from Spain received yesterday state, that there is some prospect the Decree for the prohibition of nearly all foreign goals and manufac tures being imported into that country will be re pealed, in consequent:sof the clamour w►ich has bee• raised *gaited it by the Spanish merchants. Letters and papers from the Island of Tobago, of the 24th of October, state, that the colony was in a tranquil state; but the late rising of the blacks had created so much alarm, that the Oovetnor and inhabi tants determined to adopt measures to prevent a repeti tion; and at a general meeting, it was resolved unani- iusly, that the streets should be patroled for the pre servation of lives and property. Application was also made to the Oovetuor of Balbadoes for a reinforcement of troops to quell soy insurrection that might again thew itself. This was the more necessary, as the biseks, although subdued furs time, shewed symptoms of insubordination. Severat hundred troops had ar rived at Tobago, from Barbadoes, previously to the de parture of the advices.

It appeared quite suddenly, and lights were immediately procured as a matter of necessity for the conducting of all kinds of busincm Among the accidents necessarily occurring in such a state of confusion, the following may be re lied on as authentic :—Lord Liverpool happened to be paying his respects to the King, and accilientally dropped the seals of office. His Lordship immediately commenced a must anxious search for the lost treasure; but no one helped him in his distress, and the conse quence was, that all endeavours to regain his charge proved fruitless. It is said that the •Right Honourable and right honoured George Canning was present, and pretended to assist his Noble Friend to regain posse,- siou of that which he had lost. It is whispered, how ever, that this President of the Board of Control espied the Seals lying in a dirty corner of the Hall of Stator, and was sneaking in that direction to procure them tor . his own benefit, when his Majesty was most graciously pleased to dismiss both the culprits from his presence. My Lord Liverpool, it is said, looked " all aflutter. able things" as he left the palace. When the first shock was over, his Lordship was heard to declare that " he didn't much mind it, for there was very little more to be got by otice—have it who would—he bad taken care of that." These words were spoken with a must ludicrous air of peevishness and dejection:— Canning's impudence preserved for him his usual faceti ous and ft ivolous expression of countenance. He assum ed the greatest unconcern at what had passed: " For." said he, " I care not a Ltssost orange who comes In, for, whatever be their party, I'll be amongst them." Lord Castlereagh was quite frantic upon receiving the intelligence, in consequence of basing recently disco erred that the immortal Doke is toe great an ass even Oa be made a responsible dummy. Therefore there was not the slightest hope of remaining Its ; and his Lordship's notions, upon the profits of office, no more tallied with those of his Noble Colleague, than they did upon the Catholic Question, and many other ques tions still more important, during their profitable ad ministration. " 1 know," said the Noble Lord, " that we have brought the Bta.t. to the doorof the slaughter house, but we eau sell him for beef yet; and it isn't the first time that I have dealt in this sort of commo dity, as my bargain for his sister will prove to all the world." The news of this disaster spread over the town es rapidly as the fog itself; and either the one or the ot her had such an effect spot the Lord Cha that he went to his Doers wittiest his wig. It is said., that Wins ;nails U pretioneas its aoine..wt e bear the sight of it. A Whig barrister mom 'lanai{ ously circulated a report that his Loreehlp elledet DOWITILD whether or not be had brought his heed.— The Vies. Chancellor's face looked particularly fkll of blood. We are informed also, that the King became strange ly enlightened by the occurrence of this unnsual deck. Some how Of other, Tile STATISISAN during the confusion was placed in the Royal hands instead of The Courier. His Majesty, as might be expected, was veep much astonished at its contents, when be loud them so contradictory of that to which he had been *catatonia But after some reflection, our gracious Monarch, with dal that penetration . for which he is so far famed, *salt ( saw tfirourt tie uoLa ix Tut Cousins', and decimal that they who were obliged to SCUT OUT libels, wets likely to tell any thing bat the troth.

DNS I AN UPROAR: The Itloonms, En SAL are Is great consternation, In consequence of my late ♦ersification ; Poor L•ck s r they say is quite crusty, and swears If he knew where to find me he'd cut oft my ears Or to use a shop phrase—l sitoard yo infe the trompA, When he'd tuck up his shirt sleeves, and knead ine like dough. But Archbstt declares, that 'tis always his rule Ne'er to wantonly trifle with an edged tool. Old Hotchonsson swore l'iu some rascally spy, Employ'd like a Reynolds their thoughts to descry ; And vow'd, as a pinch or two extra he took, I should hang in his shop like a filch on the kook ; Sly Nowson declared as he hung up his hat, U he caught me he'd bundle sue into his vat ; And bluff-headed T'by growl'd out with a frown, He should feel a great pleasure in knocking me doers:" While poor little Murphy, with ire brimful, Swore he'd throw " all his lapstones and lasts at nay scull." But J••y Way rose and jerked up kis breech, And made, as I'm told, an essay at a speech ; After pulling and heaving like blacksmith's old bellows, Said " I'm really concerned fur you all my good fellows ; " Rat 'pun honor to me it doth clearly appear, " That the tree cease of all your disturbance Is here, " This dastardly hireling and lying C.Orrler ; " You've adopted its sophistry —chatter'd away, " And like other blind guides it has led you astray. " At the author and ►is rhymes, you've vile epithet hurl e d, " But for him you would ne'et have been Loom* to tAe world " Tour shops which were once In obscurity shrouded, " lam told for a fact have been recently erouded. "The curious have laid out their money—the quizzes, " For the reeve satisfaction of a peep at your phitzes: " But to hang him or deprive the poor Wight of his bride, " Would for ever prevent him from writing again. " Now take my advlee, send a twenty pound bill, " I've no doubt but you'll Ind 'twill bring grist to your mill." T'seas eaanlmously resolved to take J••y's adrift, And the sum. I am told. was !subscribed in a trice ; A note moot polite, was instanter composed And sent him requesting to take the enclosed ; At the same time declaring their warmth they regretted, And begged to assure him they felt murk indebted. This done, and having sabalded their Ire, Then lying Courier was coeileson'd to the Are. SOCIETY OF ARTS, ADELPIII. A General Meeting of this laudable Institution took plsce last evenitr, at the Society's Great Room, in the Adelphi ; Dr. PowELL, the Vice President, in the Ghair. A letter was read from the President, his Royal Highness the l)uke of Sussex, recommending an alteration in the day fur the distribution of the prizes, which; after some discnssion, was, on a division, changed from the last Thursday in May to the first Wednesday in June, the former being foreign post day. The Society then proceeded to discufs the following important resolution which had Ibeen under consideration at the preceding meeting : • That it is contrary to the intention of this society that any matter intended to be published in its volume: should be previously given to the public in a garble I state in any other publications. This was, after a very animatedidebate, in which Messrs. Northhou , e, Bailey, Smith and Solly, took a very distinguished part, sar tied in the affirmative by a very large majority. This resolution is not intended to prevent a notice of the proceedings of the Society being inserted in the Daily Papers, but is intended to operate a g ainst certain Magazines which have surreptitiously printed and pablished articles from the Society's records, to the injury of their authorised publication, which it appears, costs upwards of 15001. per annum, and is gut up with the greatest care. The Meeting was un usually numerous. OLD BAILEY—This Molt:rise. Thomas Lowiek was indicted for embeszling 'Of. the property at Mr. Bodkin, Secretary of the Mendicity So ciety, Red Lion-square. The prisoner was a messenger in the office, and in that situation was costumed to re deem some property. It appeared by the evidence of Mr. Fagan, an officer of the establiebtneot• that he bad redeemed a part of the property and applied it to his own use. Oa being suspected he absconded with the rest of the money, and was apprehended by Johu Wright the officer attached to the Society ; he was found Guilty on the clearest evidence. Cunningham., Joh• &Mork, and William Russell, stood indicted for stealing a quantity of wear ing apparel, the property of some Volunteer seamen, on board the Flying Fish tender. Mr. Reynolds was for the prosecution, and Mr. Alley for the prisoner•. Cunningham was found guilty; the others were ac quitted. Arany &welt was convicted of stealing a pair of sheets and a counterpane, the property of John Wise, from a l o dging-house. The Recorder very bessuely promised the Jury to place the prisoner ft► a situation where she woald have an opportunity of redeeming bet character. Thomas Parma was indicted for stealing a pair of plated spurs, a great coat, and other articles of the val le of 31. the property of the Hon. Orsotly Berkely. The robbery was clearly proved, and t►e prisoner made no defence, bat threw himself upon the mercy of the Court . He was foetid guilty, and the Recorder promised that doe amentims should boiled,* le tarp ttrarlifnl logritim 4 of the Jury. this being t►e prisoner's Kid silence. Yesterday a Court of Directors was held at the Bast ladle House, when the ander-mentioned Captains, were sworn lab the camosaod of their respective ships, viz. :—Captain H. Scott, Charles Grant, for Bombay sad China; and Captain A. Lindsay, Keine Castle, for Madras sad China. ROTAL HUNT.--Monday morning his Majesty's stag honed, turned out a fine deer on Farnham Cosmos, for the day's diversion. The deer at, first took with great speed through the inclosures by Stow Park and Bayles towards Slough and Upton, tak lug to the left to Duchess, where se leaped out a elm garden into another for some time; from there he took to the Thames, where he got into the height to the right of Datehett Bridge, bat was soon drew* out, when be took to the water apd swam to the Windsor side, where he immediately made a leap over the Park wall iitto the Little Park ; the hunts men and yeomen pricken, aad suite, cane over batchett Bridge.

It is mtis factory to Atte that a few of the inhabitsots, assembled MAIM nteassat, ladigaaot at the disgrace indicted on fta titg lry al Ilpdical preeeedieg, greeted his Lord ship with rei leielleift,*fleir,treveived with spa. parent sattsfaceoo.—(Keistisk Oesette.) Thus we see that the plaudits of -a mob are despicable clamours when directed to the Queen. but are quit* orthodox. and received with ail satisfactioo, when directed to a to binet minister. Oa Tuesday last we stated that the Earl of Liverpool on passing through this city the preceding Friday on bis way to Weimer Castle, was greeted with loud groan ings from the populace assembled during the time the horses for his earriage were changing. This ebullition of public feeling was designated in a cotemporary print (The Kentish Gillette.) as a Radical insult, which 'the editor regretted. fur the honour of his native city, 'skald have been offered to his Lordship. As a setoff to this ungracious reception of the noble Earl, upon its being knowa in this city last Friday tha t his Lordshi p 'would again pass through on his return to London, a party of persons were collected together by two re spectable tradesmen, who have each of them a son bold ' ing lucrative appointments under the present adminis tration, when the noble premier was greeted with hassas and plaudits from the party thus collected together. — Kentish Chronicle. ---------4--rr The appearensee of Coroviatioa preparations is still kept no in Weetainster-Hall, where a few straggling carpenters are daily employed. hiewnse or eat INIAOIITANTS OF EDINOUI011.:--A requisitios, signed by more than a hundred respectable names, among which were Mom of Mr. Jeffrey, awt way distinguished leaders of the Scouish Bar, was em Saturday presented to the Lord Provost, of Edinburgh, molesting ids Lordship to call, on as early a day as pee.
