The bill alluded to is banded " Tits genies lore of England 1" and repeats the answers of a wit. ness to the questions of her adversaries Counsel respect ing her desire to live retired In the neighboarbooil Genoa. And had the illustrious persecuted personsp no reason to live retired ? What sacs the famous con fidential letter from Mademoiselle DEMON? to her sister? " There must be spies continually alma the Princess!" This was evidently the sincere be lief of the intriguing chambermaid ; and if she had canoe fur her suspicion, how much more, with such a mind and such experience as the PRINCRIS possessed, must she have had herself ? That she was every where beset by hostile emissaries she bad reason to believe, fur the trial proves the fact ; that these emissaries were iu every eoffee-house near her residences on the Continent, to prejudice the minds of Englishmen against her, every traveller attests. Knowing well the source whence this incessant enmity proceeded to hive been English, and that its ainswas to destroy her character and interests in England, and to have been di reeled, !by this rulers'. against English minds, it was na tural fur her to dread their casual intercourse. She knew not when she met with them, but that she encountered an agent of her enemies, or a dupe that had been pre judiced by her enemies' agency. Mc Morsing Post can well account for that aversion which they delight to day, with their sinister views, to collect from SACCIil'a evidence. And well) too can that apos tate print account for the change at which they effect to wonder, that was wrought in the minds of her domestics and attendants. Is it wonderful, that those who were attached to her person, and warm in her praise, should be made to turn and load her withvalumny, and seek her destruction ? The powers of corruption have been too well exemplified in the instance of that print itself, to cause any surprise at any other example. If other proofs could be required of the effect of bribery, we need only call to mind the ease of Oral's., and Lis ri.cs, or the more recent works of EDMI ARDS. The tools employed in all these eases, are of a similar kind, very low, very vile, and well prepared for the purpose. The list is now exhausted, and of what other description are they found ? Of that class of persons which is most disposed from their unhappy eircumstances, to become the dupes of influence, and the ictims of corruption. Happily, for the honour of England, there is not, in the case before us, a native of our country found involved in the disgrace. STOCKS Till Bank Stan per Cent. Rea. I per Ct.

A CONSTANT READER. Ake , • MARIETTA. The following is the Letter of M. Marietta to his Son, delivered by Mr. Brougham to the Earl of Lis er- •• Du&i Bor, Milan. Aug. 41, IWO. The object of this my letter is to inform you, that it has been written to Colonel Brown, here, that you be haved yourself ill relatively to the things which interest the Royal Court and the Princess of !Wales; for whirls reason you are watched to such a degree, that it has been in agitation that a command, called the Alien Bill, should be signified to yon to leave the country, and especially for the express reason—that you have sought to discover. from this Mr. Sacchini, Milanese, what he had deposed against the above Royal Princess. I inti• mated to the Colonel the improbability of your med dling in such things, as notch on acconnt of contrary inclination, as of your prudent and honourable mode of thinking. I also iusagined that that must arise from some jealousy of your friendship with Vassali ; and as I can not dosbt, in the least, that you should have departed a moment from your wise system, I advise you to conduct yourself in such a manner, with respect to these Royal differences, that no one may have it in his power even to imagine any thing reproachable on your part, whilst you have not lost sight of tier Milanese proverb—' He prho serres at Court dies ea straw.' " Endeavour, rather, that we may be paid what the above Royal Princess owes us for her commission of Turkish articles--paid fur by us and not reitubnr•ed to us.

In the year 1;1.9, the great eclipse was annNlar at Edinburgh. A number of scientific men from London assembled there to niake their observations on the occa sion, and among them was 01IP who was accompanied by his wife. Edinburgh was not then noted fur the ele gance by which it is at present distinguished ; and the lady, who previously to her arrival there, had seen no other country, was prejudiced against every thing she met with in the northern metropolis. On the day of the Eclipse, the apparatus of the astronomers was arranged on the platform of the Castle, which commands one of the richest and sulpha:test views in Europe ; and ivhen the Eclipse was central the conowmtling officer, who enter tained the party with a cold collation, directed a cannot to be discharged from the Illalf Moon Battery, to an nounce the anzionsly looked-for critical moment to the gazers at the spectacle in the City. Every one was sur prised and eager to ask the fair Euglish visitor, who assumed the airs of travelled consequence, what she thoughd of the sight. "Oh r . replied she, in her usual tone, " it is well enough for a Se o reh Eclipse!" LAN C 45 TZIt ..101$11E% SEPT. s.—The business of this Assize is nearly at an end. It is expected to te eeee inate in the course of the tnorning. The causes have been of the most unimportant character, with the exception of one which was an action for a breach of promise of marriage, brought by Mrs. Beattie, a widow lady at Moors* hs Cheshire, against Mr. Samuel Pearson, a widower, of Macclesfield: the case occupied several hours ; the promise to marry was noequivocally proved ; in short, the day was appointed, and every preparation made, when the defendant abruptly refused to fulfil his engagement. The disappointment affected the lady to Isola a degree, that mental derangement was the consegnesce, and she wrs obliged to be placed in a a situation of restraint for a period of more than three weeks. The infidelity of the defendant was aggra vated by his having behaved in a similar manner to wards another lady, and by u boast dictated by his silly vaulty, that with a month's fair courtship, he would undertake to Win any woman's heart. The Jury convicted his folly by awarding damages against him to the amount of Fuvr Thorsemd Periods.

J. A. Our Readers will remember the horror which 31ini 'ter+ lately expressed on proposing the renewal of the Alien Bill, at the bare supposition of the possibility of its being used as a means of injuring the flaws. It turns out, however, that the suspicions expressed on this subject were bat too well roundel. From a letter from Mr. Maatrrrit, Banker in Milan, to his son in London, (a copy of which our Readers will find in another co lumn), it appears, that Colonel 'Wiwi's intimated t Mr. Mastevrv, the fittlerr;ltiet it %Taff. FolireniOntiie to semi his son oat of this country, iu consequence of his liaslng entered into a conversation with the %vitro... 4 SACCHI. This intimation threw Mr. hIANIRTTE into the utmost alarm, and in order to appease the agent of ►he English flovernment, he immediately writes a letter of exhortation to his son, informing him at the same time, that leis answer (if sufficiently submissive) will be exhi bited to the Colonel. After this, how are we to give credit to any assurances or pledges of Ministers ? If the threats of Colonel Browne could fill a man in Mr. Mariette's situation in life with so mach alarm, we may easily conceive how much more operative %huller threats may have been on persons in inferior situations. We must always bear in mind, that that sort of sturdy imlependeuce which is often to be wet with in this country, has no existence in despotic coun tries ; and that Avery slight hint from a powerful quarter will generally be found sufficient to convey alarm to the apprehensive mind of an Italian. llop picking is aunouneed by Mr. Ellis, the great Hop Planter, near 11aidstune, to commence in his plantations on Monday.
