MOUILITY, GENTRT. CLRROT. AN FRillioLaiti• O/ TIM COUNTY OF imavocc. MY LORDS ARO URNTLIt•IiN OF ALL Priries, There tire passaees in the petition which has issued as the Petition of the Coitnty of Norfolk, On the 3rd of Jan., to which I am of opinion after waturest thought bad the Meeting been permitted (by those who so im prudently, as well as unfairly interrupted Mr. Cobbett, and thereby aided his proposals) to hear and to under stand, the meeting of that day would not have consented. For the part of the meeting which iilpported Mr. Cob bett in a petition which they did not hear, could only; I am persuaded, intend to sheer their determioation that in any resolutions of national import, the question of Parliamentary Reform should not be omitted. The heat and excessive inconvenience which I saf fermi on the hustings, three, times drove me from thence early in the day, and at a distance, I attempted in vain with my bat raised a little way from my' head to catch the eye of the High Sheriff, and to get a bearing both for Mt. Cobbett and myself at the very time when (I since leans) the Petition-was puling, amid a tumult which I coaceived.to be nothing more than the same which tbroogliont the whole of the meeting prevailed. only tben raging with antinented violence; and I stood in such an attitude as (laughably enottgb) to give an idea that I was supporting a Petition of hhich i did not hear a word. Had Mr. Cobbett's Petition not exceeded vi hat I thlniejust in some peints,'lnd MIMI lb expedient at all events al preseneht others. I' gonad have had no objection Whatever to support and ttetivole, now that I have read if, my Nippon of it ;.but l•diel not hear itat the time of meeting, red *Wit that time upon -reading the Petition over and over again, I do think that to the sweeping manlier in which it would dispose of income and property without expressed equivalent or modifica tion or regard to• vested rights, and to the meant...elite the forcible suspension of moat important payments (at present, I should treat at least, prematme) the Comity of Norfolk is committed beyond any possible intention which the body of Freeholders andinhabitants thereof could entertain. - • _ I beg leave therefore to propose to the County a fresh Relluisition to the High Sheriff, composed of the princi pal Gentlemen of all.parties, in the terms which under neath this letter are written with a view to consider the ',Propriety of adopting Resolutions in Oregano and temper of those which I venture as underwritten to suggest, and which I should not presisme to take upon myself to re commend, bad I seen any prospect of any attempt being madd &Om quarters whence it would he more fitting some such proposal should tome, antl . which I will - propose myself, If a meeting. be called and no one else will , toms forleard with. Resolutions .more worthy of emnice.-41eedred Mediae cannot answer any sufficient purpose, and are Mids. I think, to many obsjections, considered ds opposed to a County Meeting. It is not that I am afraid of the coafiscation of Church Property; I think mime fresh arraagensents.respeeting Oates west desirable, and sense atOstettesent , of many twisting claims by taw which it is inspossilsk for inelicideak by solitary wrylye to make, andifevenrs briog calamities oil my profession I hope I shall bear them as well as others. but I feel myself interested in what I believe to be the real and truly liberal feelings of Norfolk, end for the cause of public prosperity and freedom, that the views of the friends of freedom should not be misconstrued. I will not joie in any illiberal 'dietitians upon a man of undeabted talents and force of mind, and who ham tbe' ammo claim of charity with all mankind. I have been supported at ether times, on occasions when I thought st all events, and still think myself right, by assrayof those who stepported‘Mr.Cubbett upon the till eabets.tbe Petition of. sius-Ssiof thaw) , pawed, -Rat I - think the Fealties caged not have passetwithost ins. portant exceptions, had those friends of Reform (of which I am one, and resolutions in favour.of which, of a temperate kind, blending the subject of Agricultural Distress with political causes, I had actually prepared end should have proposed had I been able to know what was going on) had those friends of Reform, I say, rightly understood what they were doing. I recommend another County Meeting properly eon. ducted, as nothing else can fairly ascertain the sense of the County. if the County be for Mr. Cobbett's Peti tion, and they think fit for a Nation to declare, what no individual would do till clearly compelled, via. a Bank ruptcy, let the County of Norfolk deliberately say so, • and if they think that such a declaration, if followed up in other Counties. is not the way to destroy that confi dence which is the soul of public credit, and upon pre serving which the peace and safety of the nation . depend. The situation which I hold in the Church, the pro perty of which is concerned essentially in the propoliali of Mr. Cobbett's petition, and the anxiety I have, what. ever my own peculiar opinions may be in a point so ire , portant as a declaration contained in the petitioo,that the property of the Church is public property disposable at the will of Government, that such a declaration on the part of a great County should not go forth without the deepest consideration; the sincere wish which I boo that every emaitabie adjustment may take place without convulsing the country with more alarm than is necessary; the veneration which I have foe. the cause of freedom itself, which as it derives a claim from the progress of batman opinion ,so it suffers injury when it violently precedes it, all induce me to couie fornard upon this occasion. Mr. Colibett asserts. and I do not doubt his word, that he did make a free cominonication of the substance of his Resolutions to 1 Yeoman Wore the usectink. I can only say, that I was wholly unacquainted with lime matter of his Petition before I heard that it was passed. and believe that this was the case with ninety-nine oak of a hundred that were present at the meeting. Mr. tl i i Cubbett expresses his reediness to appeal to ano ' County Meatier if there is a doubt an to the seeseof ,IL,lonney being with his Petition ; nothing can be faire , bed I mar meet his proposals, and invite him to disc sion_al such a meeting. though far from pretending cope with him in ability, yet convinced. that thereli ability in the County fully equal to cope even with. kin extraordinary powers of mind; and I promise him Rh will convince me that he is right I will acknowledge m conviction, only let whatever is done, be done on sides with candour and with temper. And now m Lords and Gentlemen, I have performed my duty ; i! remains fur you to do your's if you are dissatisfied with the proceedings of the late County Meeting. Nothing will give me greater satisfaction than if I have hit upon a method of conciliating all parties to an and , cable discussion. and as many as possible to the sub. stance of the Resolutions which I recommend, and when I see the natural leaders of mankind step forth, I shall retire into the ranks agaiu in which I had much rather remain. I have drawn up Resolutions calculated to conciliate all who wish to maintain their own opinions, and at the same time wish to appeal to the Legislature on the sub. ;set of Agricultural Distress. I write this without in. , tendon to give the smallest offence to any one, and shall not enter into any vindication of it, in any pawar•—• let it steed or fall by its own merits ; ant I only add. that hundred meetings appear to me lOa.astempisg to defeat an invader in detail and in skirmishes whom we are afraid to meet in a general action be cause we have been once put to confusion when not sufficiently on our guard. And remember, my Lords and Gentlemen, that the County stands in the face of the world committed at present to Mr. Cobbett s Pea tido* in its fall extant, and it is vain to shrink from t ..

Hence arises the necessity of. a thnOorare'retirement to the sanctuary of Whitefriari, to which place Ifigdis conducted by Skoarlie,an usurer and a creature of Patgarno's. The latter is soon apprised of the circumata nee. end the next scene exhibits him and the bully Pepercele in consultation hew to gain possession of the Crown Jewels, which the King had given to George fleriot the jeweller, on which to to raise money for Niger:llse, in consideration of some pecuniary advances that had been formerly made by the father of Nigel to the ancestor of his Majesty. The estate of Nigel had been mortgaged to Skourlie. acting as the agent of Dalgarno, and un less redeemed by . the following day, the whole falls into Dalgarno e possession. To gain possession of the jewels, and present the repayment of the money, are, therefore. the grand objects of Dalgarno: and to effect it, he breaks; Ivy night, into the house of the miser Trapbote, *here Nigel lodges. He recovers the jewels, but not without resistance on the part Of Trapipois, whom be strangles, pith a scarf, formerly given to him by the King. Nigel levees Attalla, in company with the daughter of rrapLois, and p is himself before the King, in Greenwich Park. The monarch is' alarmed at his sudden appearance, and orders his immediate apprehension. Nigel now learns. that he is suspected , .of being the murderer of Trapboie, and that suspicion is co firmed, by the appearance of the crown jewels, ' wbi Skoarlie presents to the King, stating them ' to aye been given to him by Nigel. St waret is made out for the committal of Nigel, and is *boa to be put in force, when &lathe who bad on a i pre,' as occasion been repulsed by Morgan Helier. offireltasave Nigel, if the lady will voncliss • her hand in thereward. Impressed by the strong evidence against Nigel, and distracted for his fate, she is about to yield, when the sudden appearance of Martha Trapboie gives a change to the proceedings. She it appears had been empliVed in redeeming the estates of Mgt!, and now . eitculpateW him from the Murder of her father, and 'accuses Lord Dalgarno of the crime. The latter :at firs; effects to deride• .the accusation as the offspring of a disordered fancy, but the production of thitfaial scarf confounds him, and satisfies the Monarch. Nigel is of course restored to his rank and favour, and is made happy by the possession of the hand of Margaret. C. KeneLa represented Dalgarno. Ile was splendidly dressed, and besides acting well, looked the character admirably. Asnorr gave to Nigel all the interest of which the character was susceptablei and Balmer perfectly enacted King laws if a fat, jolly, ilhirruroa liks looking figure, was the property of his Majesty.— Fe RRltet was successful in guar/ie, and the characters of Peppereole and Trapbois found 'deviate representatives in FARLEY and fli:or iellATth. Miss FOOTE looked (as she always does) most lively, and Miss Lacy, as Martha Trapbois, di,- played a degree of talent that reached the beam and was more than ever acknowledged by the unanimous applause of the house.—The prologue was well recited by Air. Vance and Miss FOOTE, as was the epilogue by Mr. CHATTERLET. 'With unfeigned sorrow we have to annonnee the death of our distinguished countryman, Dr. Jenner, the disco-1 Teter of Vaccination.

It Is necessary to remark that the Eagle was noticed by the commander of the garrison, as being in rather a tottering state. and it *es his intention to have had it taken down, and more firmly fixed, that very day, so we are not to look on the fall as a bad T,t* WEATIIZIL—Fer the last eight or len day+ the severity of the weather has been each as has not been experienced foe several yeses io this country. The frost, which has been very severe,, is accompanied with an E.S.E. wind, as bitter anti biting, we verily believe. as any experienced in Lapland. The snow fell last night and this morning in continual light and'drifting showers. These were driven shout by the wind, and rendered walking in the streets a task of much suitor ance end difficulty. The Canals are frozen, as well as the ponds in the Park and the ire, in -considerable masses, is drifting up and down the Liffey. Some of the Inland BUN are yet due, and three English Mails . have been retained at Howth, in consequence of the violence of the storm —(Dublin Evening Post, Jan. 25.) Mehll of snow continued on Faddy and Saturday. In this neighbourhood it does not exceed what forms a healthful covering for vegetation, but in some quartets it lies so deep as to. impede travelling, and retard the progress of the mails. Such wwa_the depth of snow in the north of England, that theLondonmailsofiatunlay, Sunday, and,Monday, were thrown one day out of course, and arrived here with the south mail on the succeeding days. Although in different parts of the road six horses are used, the south mail continues to arrive fronrsix to eight hours later than usu'l, but as the road is snitch freetnented, there mast now he a beaten track, and unless there should he a fresh fall of snow, the mail should arrive in due course. The arrival of the north mail has been also irregular ; the depth of snow in Sutherland was so great that the mails were • forwarded on horseback until yesterday. It is 'nor so deep in Ross-shire. In Moray-shire, the depth is, we understand, considerable. There is a mere sprinkling .of snow in the West Highlands. The Caledonian coach stopped on Monday for the winter, but the snow is not so deep on the Highland road as might be supposed. from the state of the coast road.—(lnVerliCS3 Jorraol; .dun. 24.)
