either public or private feeling, and hope to pass un scathed. His conduct latterly has formed the subject of strong animadversion in Parliament and beyond its doors; if unjustly made, he should have adopted another mode of defence; neither the language he is said to hale used, nor the place selected for its utterance, were suited to his cha racter or station. There can be no question, that from any other individual, the same expressions, thus publicly vented, won't!, on being brought before the Ilouse, be voted a direct breach of privilege, and a committal to Newgatc be the almost certain consequence. We cannot this morning allude further to this important sub ject. The debate upon it will be read with great interest. The Chancellor, during the discussion, was, we understand, in the House, up stairs, and greatly seated. We are not surprised he should have felt strongly on the occasion. It is now confidently said that his retire inent is certain, and that he will select the first opportunity of resigting his high employments into more popular hands. In fact, such is the known wish of the most influential of his colleagues. Lord Eldon adds nothing to the character or popular influence of the Ministry. The pressure of matter precludes our inserting the whole of ,Ir. Flint's petition. It will he concluded in our columns of to-morrow. The same cause compels us to defer our observations on this important case, and on the recent statutes which, while they take away the trial by jury, make the will of local Niagisr-ates a summary sub stitute for law, and vest them with power unknown to the Constitution of England, and fatal to the rights of the s•hject.

CrNoTarir TO THE NI NCESS CUARLOTTF.-it is now finally determined to erect a public monument to the me mory of the late Princess Charlotte of Wales, in St. George's Chapel, 'Windsor. The spot chosen for the ceno taph i' Urswick's, or the Bread Chapel, at the north-west e.rrner of the church, so called from Dr. Christopher lirs wick, Dean of Windsor, and joint promoter with Sir Re tinald Bray, in finishing this fabric. There arc at present only two tablets in this Chap:i; one to the memory of Christopher Urswick, the other to Colonel Robert Brude nell, son of the Earl of Cardigan. A drawing was on Saturday made under the direction of Mr. Matthew Wyatt, architect, of the intended situation of the monument in the Chapel, which will be immedi ately submitted for his Majesty's approval, and there is little doubt hut this memorable monument will be speedily corn pie ted. Yesterday morning, about ten o'clock, the Princess Au gusta and the. Duchess of Clarence left Bushy Park, and proceeded to the King's Palace at Kensington, where the Duchess of Clarence alighted, on a visit to the Duchess of Kent. The Princess Augusta proceeded on to London, where her Royal Highness alighted, at her inter.ded re sidence, in the King's Palace. St. James's, adjoining the residence of the Earl of Harrington, where her Royal Highness was in a short time joined by the Duchess of Gloucester. Their Royal Highnesses proceeded to inspect the repairs making previous to its being occupied by the Princess. The Princess and the Royal Duchess were oc cupied in the inspection about half an hour, after which they proceeded to Gloucester House, where the Princess partook of a dcjeune. Soon efter four o'clock the Princess left Gloucester House, and proceeded to the King's Palace at Kensington, where her Royal highness took up the Duchess of Clarence, and they proceeded on their return to Bushey-park.

CHARLES _FLINT'S P' 'ETITION. To the Hon. the House of Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The humble Petition of Charles Flint, of Uttoxeter, in the County of Stafford, Gent., Sheweth--That ypur petitioner wits, on or about the month of August, 1819, articled to his brother, Mr. Abraham Flint, of Uttoxeter aforesaid, one of the attorneys of his fllajesty's Court of King's Bench, for the term of five years, and bath now served up. wards of four years thereof; and is twenty-six years of age, or thereabouts. That your petitioner bath hitherto lived in strict observance of, and in conformity to the laws of his country ; and bath at all times ' been a peaceable and quiet subject of this realm, and bath not at any time, until the time after mentioned, been charged with, or ac cused of any breach of the pence or violation of the law whatever. That previous to the 11th day of June last past, a person of the name of Richard Stafford Cook, together with his brother and agents, appeared at Stafford. in the County of Stafford, and laid claim to the title of Lord Stafford and the Barony of Stafford, and also to certain lands and estates there, then possessed by Sir George Jen:lngham ; and in pursuance of such elaim took various mea sures and proceedings, which were, by the Magistracy of the said County, and the generality of the inhabitants thereof, deenied un lawful and merman's, and they formed the foundation of different proceedings in the Court of Quarter Sessions. held at Stafford, previous to the month of October last past, and also in his Ma jesty's Courts at Westminster. That amongst such transactions, a person of the name of John Wilkes, claimed to be entitled to the possession of, and to hold a piece of land in Stafford aforesaid, under, and as tenant to the said Itichanl Stafford Cook, which piece of land, and the possession thereof, was also claimed by a person of the name of Joseph Pickin, as tenant to the said Sir George Jerningham. That disputes arose between the said John Wilkes and Joseph Pickin, in respect of the possession of the said piece of land, and each of them exercised acts of ownership thereon, when on the llth du of June last put, the said John Wilkes having so done, the said Joseph Pickin caused him to be apprehended by the con stables and peace officers, as a person committing wilful trespass on his land and property, and to be conveyed to a newly erected prison, or lock-up-house there, although, as your petitioner sub mits the case of the said John IVilkes, if in fact, a trespass, was not within the statute of the Ist George IV. That in consequence of the proceedings before detailed. and of the apprehending and conveying to prison of thesaid John Wilkes, and the interest excited in the public thereby, numerous persons assembled to see the said John 'Wilkes conveyed to prison, which assembly formed the ground of the prosecution after mentioned. That on the said 11th day of June, your petitioner was at Staf ford, upon professional business, unconnected with the said R. Stafford Cook, or any preceeding in relation taltis claim, to the dis putes aforesaid, (by the order and direction of his brother and em ployer,) and that at the time the said J. Wilkes was apprehended, your petitioner was taking his supper at his lodgings in Stafford, quite ignorant of such apprehension, and unacquainted with the circumstances which gave rise thereto, and while so engaged he was applied to on behalf of the said John Wilkes (who was a client of pair petitioner's said master and employer), and requested to go and see by what authority he was b 0 apprehended and taken to prison, whereupon your petitioner instantly left his said supper, and went towards the said prison, and met the constables with the said John Wilkes in custody, on th jr way there, when your petitioner. act ing, as he considered, as the professional friend of the add John Si dices, applied to the said constables, and requested to see be what authority he was apprehended and taken to prison, when they requested your petitioner to wait until they had lodged hint in the round-house, and they would then produce same, and desired your petitioner to go with them for that purpose, which your petitioner ' did. and having inspected such authority as the said constables produced, your petitioner returned to his said lodgings, and took no part whatever in the said assentbly. otherwise than as aforesaid, ' and in repeatedly requesting the persons there to remain quiet and peaceable. That in a few days after the said 11th Jay of June, various perr. sons were charged by the haw Agent of the said Sir George Jer ninghatti, before the Rev. Thomas Whitby, clerk, one of his Ma- ' jesty's Justices of the Peace, in and for the said county, with a riot upon the said 11th day of June, and with ofistructing the officers in apprehending the said John Wilkes, when the said Magistrate went fully into the said complaint, and dismissed the! same. . That no charge was then made against your petitioner by the Mid Law Agent of Sir George Jerninghann, who, or. the contrary thereof, then declared that there was no ground whatever for in ^luding your petitioner therein, and your petitioner was tnereupon examined as a witness for the several other persons then charged. That although the charge so made before the said Magistrate, had been dismissed as aforesaid, and no charge had then been made against your netitioner, yet at the then next ensuing Quarter Sessions for the said county of Stallind, the said Law Agent of the said Sir G. Jerningbani, preferred a BM of Indictment, not only against the several persons 'who had been charged before the said Magistrate, but also against your petitioner, against whom no charge hall been then made. That your petitioner is informed, and verily believes it to be true, that such indictment was preferred, and your petitioner in- I chided therein, under the advice and direction of the Chairman of the said Quarter Sessions, who afterwards presided urn the trial thereof. That the said Indictment came on to be tried at thelast Michael mas Quarter Sessions held in and for the said county of Stafford, when a verdict of guilty was returned against your petitioner and the other dlendants therein, and they were each of them a ntenced to three months imprisonment, and to hard labour in his 3lajesty's ga for the said County of Staflind. That your petitioner, very humbly and with great deference, but yet with entire confidence, submits that the said trial of your said petitioner was not a fair impartial trial, and such a one as he was by the laws and constitution of this realm entitled to ; and that the verdict of the Jury was against the evidence then adduced, and was procured by the partial and improper conduct of George Chetwynd, Esq. the Chairman of the said Quarter Sessions, who, together with the Rev. John Clare, were the only Magistrates who were present thereat ; and that the sentence of the said Court against your said petitioner, if he had been guilty of the offence charged, was not proportioned to or in accordance with the share or part which yours petitioner could by any ;nous he found to have had or taken in the transaction upon which the said prosecution was founded, but that the same proceeded troin a feeling of malice and resentment which the said Mr. Chetwynd had imbibed against your petitioner, and from prejudices conceived on account of the proceedings of the said Richard Stafford Cook and his agents. That your petitioner, with a view to submitting his case to such consideration anti animadversion as he was by the laws and consti tution of his country entitled to, caused an application to be made to the Chairman of the Quarter Sessions, for a copy of his notes taken on the said trial, and of his summing up to the Jury, which he declined to five ' • but your petitioner has, nevertheless, been enabled to obtain a faithful report of the sad trial, with a copy of the indictment upon which the same was had, which he submits to the consideration of your Honourable House, in the schedule here unto annexed. . . _ _ That the said trial was not a fair and impartial trial, in proof whereof your petitioner shews, amongst other reasons appearing upon the face of the said report, that the said two Magistrates who presided thereat suffered themselves to be greatly prejudiced against your petitioner and the said defendants by reason of the proceed ings of the said Richard Stalfent Cook a nd his agents, with whom they erroneously conjectured your petitioner aral the other defen dents to be connected. That the said Richard Stafford Cook also claims carious estates in the said county of Stafford, also possessed by some of the Ma gistracy there, who might be also, on that account, greatly preju diced upon the trial of this case. 'fh • t the Chairman of the said Quarter Sessions summed up the evidence, and gave his charge to the Jury with great partiality, omitting. until reminded by your petitioner's Counsel, very ma eeriel evidence on his behalf, and making no comment or observe- Moo thereon--but, on the contrary, strongly impressing upon the I minds of the Jury his own conviction that yourpetitior,o, as well as I ;he said defendants, was guilty or the offence charged • uesignating it as a piost outrageous breach of the peace ; and also in his said swooning up . totally abstaining from making a single observation in favour of tile petitioner, or any one of the said defendants. That he also told the said Jury, in answer to the argument of toe petitioner's Counsel, that it did nor appear that the petitioner was acting as the professional adviser of the said John Wilkes; *mans pews pasitionee dome that sa • InOt Jigtjectly admit ted by the Ccuirsel for the prosecution, in his opening o the case, or that your petitioner would otherwise have proved the same, being then prepared with witnesses for that purpose. That the sakl Chairman very improperly appealed to the feelings and prejudices of the Jury, to obtain a verdict against your peti donee and the other defend ants, by observing to them that they had tenants, or were tenants themselves, and that such proceedings (meaning the proceedings of the said Richard statiord Cook and his party) to obtain pessessioa of Sir George Jeminghant's estates. were not to be tolerated; thereby connecting your petitioner and the other, defendants' case with the disputes and proceedings be tween the said Richard Stafford Cook and Sir George Jerning ham. 'l hat the said Chairman mis-stated the taw of the ease to the Jury ; for that your petitioner and the other defendants were in dicted fur a riot, a rout, and unlawful assembly, three distinct [offences, of any one of which the Jury might have found your peti tic nee and the other defendants guilty. That the law as applicable to the said three offences is different ; hut that the said Chatnr.an stated the law as applicable to the lesser or minor offence, namely, that el an unlawful assembly only, and took the verdict of guilty generally from the Jury, without haying even stated what constituted the other two offences of a rout and not. or without having called their attention to the difference lin the said three offences, or the law as applicable thereto. That if the law as applicable to the said three offences had been properly stated to the Jury, and their attention properly called thereto, they :ingot have Mond your petitioner and the other de fendants ratify of an unlawful assembly only ' • and your petitioner handily submit? they must have clone so (if they had returntsl a verdict of guilty), and that there ass no evidence to prove them I guilty of the offence of riot. That the sentence passed upon your petitioner and the other de fendants (being to hard labour) could only be justified under the! Statute of :hi Geo. IV. c. 111; and by their being convicted of a riot, as to which offence the law was not stated to the Jury. but that applicable to an unlawful assembly only, for which oilers the satil Statute does not authorize the passing of sentence to hard labour. That in passing the said sentence the said Chairman announced. that the sentence to hard labour was for that the defendants had assaulted the constables in the execution of their duty, whereas yont petitioner charges that they were no; indicted for any such offence, and the: the sentence could not therefore be justified on tits: ground. That the faeLogs sad prejudice' of the said Maoism:es against ' your petitioner and the other defendants, is further evidenced by the sentence passed upon them, when contrasted with that of an other ease of the same nature, tried at the same Sessions, wherein the defendants were proved to have violently assaulted and beat the constables, broke open the loom where the prisoners were confined, and forcibly rescued them from and out of the custody of the law ' short report of which is also annexed hereto, and humbly sub mitted to the consideration of your lfonourahle House); upon whom, although the offence charged was so widely different from that charged against your petitioner, a touch more lenient sentence was passed. That after the verdict of the Jury had been returned, your peti tioner, well knowing the fatal consequences that would follow to him from a sentence of imprisonment, as the same might affect his health and vitiate his articles of clerkship, caused his Counsel to signify to the said Court of Quarter Sessions, that your petitioner was ready to submit to any tine which they might consider the jus tice of the case required to be inflicted upon him, notwithstanding which no fine was imposed upon your petitioner, but the sentence aforesaid. That the said sentence was in effe^t doubly severe upon your petitioner, when compared with'its effects upon the other defend ', ants, who were labouring persons, moving in a very different sta tion and sphere In life to that of your petitioner. That after the passing of the said sentence, your petitioner was taken to the common gaol, and immediately divested of his own clothing, and clothed in a gaol dress, and was classed and atm). dined with vagrants and tilons, and the worst description of offenders. That lie was for a length of time after his first imprisonment, and until within 1 short period of its termination, refused permis sion to procure or have any other nourishment or fond than the gaol allowance, consisting of bread and water and a few potatoes per day, together with a little warm meal and water, the !atter which your petitioner found it impeesible to eat or to partake of. (To be continue,: ) w • COSMORAMA. We were gratified yesterday with a private view of this beautiful panoramic exhibition. but owing to the crowd assembled we had not the opportunity of surveying it so long or so conveniently as we could have wished. It WAS thronged with company at an early hour, and way filled with a succession of numerous visiters through out the day. In the Gallery of :hid and Africa we were struck with the interesting Interior of the Church of the fluty Sepulchre at Jet sapient, which la given with great grandeur of effect, height ened not a little by all those sublime associations which connect themselves in every mind with this solemn memorial. This church is composed of three churches, the Holy Sepulchre, Calvary, and the Invention of the Holy Cross. This view represents the' Chapel of the Holy Sepulchre, which is nroperly speaking, only the great nave of this edifice. This chapel is lighted from the top like the Pantheon at Rome, which it also resembles in shape. The monument with a little dome which you see in the centre of the l'hurch, has been built ova the spot where our Saviour is said to have been buried. The lamps in this chapel burn continually. Sixteen columns forming seventeen arches, ornament the circumference of the chapel, and support an upper gallery equally composed of sixteen columns and seventeen arches smaller than the columns and arches which support them. Over this Gallery are niches which were formerly ornamented with mosaics, representing the twelve Apostles, Saint Helena, the Emperor Constantine, and three other portraits of persons not known. rite Sabirrramean Gallery in Hindoilan is strikingly splendid. In the rainy season a river falls from the top of the jiseade of this cavern, which gives to its entrance the appearance of being closed by a crystal curtain, formed by this magnificent cascade. This view is taken while the entrance is covered with the waterfall here described. The Peak of Tenni.lß, the Temple of Palmyra, the Town of Ceriues, in the Isle of Cyprus, and the Andre: Sarcophagi, near Sidon, in Palestine, present each of them most impressive genies, which, in absence, the imagination tan nowhere represent to itself as correctly as through this medium. In the gallery to the right is the Chu; ch of St. Paul at Rome, which was situated about a mile from the gate to which it had given its name. This =a hill. cent edifice was about a year ago struck with lightning, and was consumet: in a few hours. The cedar which supported the roof fell with a dreadful crash on the pavemen t, and burred withsuch violence, that the marble columns were reduced to lime. This once beautiful structure is here seen to the greatest advan tage; it is impossible to contemplate it without lamenting that it can be seen only here. The General J'iru• qf Rome is placed before the eye with the most excellent effect; it struck us as being somewhat too highly coloured. but this might probably be owing to the cloudiness of the day; a brighter morning would probably have given it a warmer tone, and made it appear to more advantage ; as it was, however, its general effect was extremely good.—M o 'slur Erna. The ruins of the Temple of Juno and the Port qt Corthogena are so well executed as to make them equally attractive to the cognoscenti and to the c immon cbserver. Hut the r•allry and village in Switzerland. as con nected with the birth of %Vinci-sat TELL, the founder of Swia. liberty, has a charm independent of the exquisite richness and beauty of the scenery, which rivets attention while it throws back the memory to events linked with all the best feelings of the mind and of the heart. We shall take the earliest opportunity of revisiting these views, and of examining chats:more in tlatail. ST. DAVIL•'S D. 11". Yesterday the hundred and tenth Anniversary Festival of the Most Honourable and Loyal Society of Ancient Britons was cele brated according to custom. At eleven o'clock, the Earl of Ilrecknock (the President of the Institution), the Bishop of t , t. Assph, the Bishop of Chester, sere ral of the ice -Presidents, the Treasurer, and the Stewards, asscm ' bled in the Board Room, where, after transacting the business of the morning, they partook of an excellent repast, which was laid out in the refectory of the school ; many Ladies and Gentlemen, friends and patrons of the Institution, being of the company. At one o'clock, the children under the patronage of the Society, consisting of I.UI (104 boys and 46 girls), walked in procession from the Schoolhouse in Gray's Inn-lane-road, towards St. George's Church. Hanover-square. They were clean and respectably clad; each boy had a silver leek in his hat, and each girl one in her bosom. They were attended by their masters and mistresses. The proces sion set out in the tollowing order:— Four Parish IlLsdles with their batons, A military band of music, A banner, carried before the boys, bearing the following inscription in large gilt letters :—" elsli Citarity for educating. clothing. and maintaining 150 children, the descendants of Welsh parents." The plume of feathers was painted on the reverse side. One hundred and four boys, two and two, Fotty.sit girls, two and two, City Police and Marshalmen, two and two, Street-Eeepere and Constables to clear the way, City 3larshal on horseback, in full uniform, Military band of music, Nineteen Noblemen and Gentlemen'scarriliges closed the procession, Several hundreds, friends and relatives of the children, followed, and accompanied the procession, being allowed to see them on this day only in every year ; In consequence of which much incon venience arose, from the mothers, &c. walking by the side of their children, to give them cakes and money. The spectacle they af forded was a mental treat to those who are able to appreciate the blessings resulting from an institution which alleviates the anxieties of the distressed parent and widow, and cheers the wretched . . orphan. The procession moved along Guilford-street, Russell-square, Bloomsbury-square, Russell-street, - Oxford-street, to St. George's Church, Hanover-square, where a numerous and respectable con gregation had assembled. The church service was read in the Ancient British language, by the Rev. Thomas Alban, Chaplain to the Society. The children, ranged in the organ gallery, sung the hymns appointed for the day, with melody and sweetnees. After divine service had been read, th^ Bishop of Chester ascend ed the pulpit, and preached an excellent sermon ; after which the children sung a hymn, in the most impressive manner. After divine service, the procession formed in the same order as before, and proceeded to St. James's-square, where they halted at the Inseam of the Dubs sr:Norfolk and Sir Watkin Williams Wynn, giving three cheers at each ; and thence proceeding to Carlton Palace, paid a similar testimony of respect to his Majesty. The next stage was to Freemasons' Tavere, where an excellent din ner was provided. About half-peat five o'clock, between 400 gni MO persons sat down to a sumptuous entertainment ; the Earl of Bret:knock in the Chair, supported on the right by the Lord Mayor, and on the left by the Bishop of Chester. Four tables were laid parallel length ways, and two across, at the head of the room, at the upper one of which the President sat, in the society's superb chair, ornamented lat the top with the Prince's plume and motto. The stewards I presided at the other tables : they wore cocked bats, with a plume `of white ostrich feathers, an embroidered leek, with a crown, and I the mutts " irk Dien." The band of the Coldstream Guards were MALIOriCi I in the upper gallery, and played several martial airs. Two Welch harpers were in the centre of the room, who played during the entertainment. The front gallery displayed a numerous assemblage of ladies of rank. On the cloth being removed, " Non l , Noain" was performed by l) ease. Smith, Parry, Collier, &e. &c. ; after shich the Noble l hairman stood up, and gave the King's health, which was drunk with great and reiterated opplattac— " The Duke of York and the Ann-,--- The Duke of Clarence and the Navy," and several other loyal and patriotic torus were also I drunk, and some excellent songs and glees were sung by the pro fessional gentlemen. - - The bitim and girls were introduced by the stewards, and pa raded round the nom ; their appearance was cleanly and healthy, and afforded general satisfaction. The collection at the church and the dinner. we are happy to learn, was considerable. The company did not separate ull a la:s hour.

PORTSMOUTH, FEZ. 28. The arrival of the Camelion at this port, enables us to correct several mis-statementa which have been niade relative to her visit, 'with the Naiad, to the port of Algiers. The specific object which induced our Government to order these ships thither was, to de mand from the Dey satisfaction, or an apology, for tuning made an attack on and broken open the house of Mr. Macdonald, our Consul, in order to search for and take away two of his servants, who are Cabbais, natives of the interior. against whom the Dey had c,rnimenced • war of extermination and of plunder. Capt. Spencer was also to demand permission for ;he English Consul to hoist the British colours on the Consular Town-house. as a pro tection of himself and family from unprovoked insult. Capt. :Spencer, on his arrival at Algiers, found two Spanish vessels it: the Mole, which had been just captured by the Algerine corvette Tripoli, and the crews of which were destir.ed to slavery. Capt. Spencer, therefore, with the most praiseworthy feeling, made the ease of these poor captives a part of his demand* to the Dey, agree ably to the E' mouth Treaty, which renounced the right of the Dey to this inhuman practice over Christian subjects. Capt. Spencer having waited four days for the Dey'ii reply to his de mands, became apprehensive fur the safety of the Consul and his family ; he, therefiere, as a stratagem, to get them on board, gave out that he meant to give a drjeune a la joatchelle, and, accord ingly, sent invitations to the Consulate and all the Merchants and Europeans on shore, to honour him with their company. The next day (the 31st ult.) the Dey not having made any reply to the de mands, Capt. Spencer made the signal for the Camelion to ! get under way, and he left the Bay, with all his pretended guests, on board the Naiad. Whilst the ships were working out of the Bay, the Algerine corvette, which had captured the two Spanish vessels before alluded to, was espied close under the land, running for the Mole, which anchorage she would have reached had not the Camelion instantly laid her on board, when Linitenant Bagwell, at the head of a party of the Camelion's crew, resolutely jumped into the main chains, followed by the Second Lieutenant, Master, and remainder of the crew, excepting about tell men, who, after having killed seven and wounded twelve of the .11gerines, drove the remainder below, and captured the Tripoli ' corvette, of 18 guns, and 100 men, in tine style. The crew of the ! Naiad (which ship was outside of the bay), observing the gallant efforts of the Camelion, manned the rigging, and gave three cheers at the moment of boarding. Captain Spencer took out the Captain, but the corvette, being in a leaky state and disabled by the tire ! she hail sustained both from the Naiad, in passing her, and the Camelion, was abandoned. Captain Spencer proceeded to Malta, I to apprise the Commander-in-Chief (Sir llarry Neale) of what had occurred, and he despatched the Camelion to England, with the result of his communication to the Vey. It was obweryed that the Algerinea had considerably strengthened their weak points ; the Crown and Seraglio batteries, in particular. They tned the effect of their shells, from one of the batteries nearest to the Camclion, whilst she was attacking the Camelion, but she was at too great a distance (about four miles) to receive any harm from them. When the Camelion sailed (on the Ist inst.) the Algerine squadron was at sea, cruising against the defenceless Spaniards. A large rases fri gate was cruising off Cape St. Vincent; two smaller frigates, sod live corvettes, were off Minorca and Majorca. It is, however, supposed thati they all returned to port in a day or two afterwards, as, whilst the Naiad and Camelion lay there, a brig sailed sud denly, it is presumed, to recal them. The Carnelian stayed at Gibraltar only a few hours. There was no British ship of war theta there. The Camelion is rennin , ' at Spithead : it is expected she will be the next convoy to Gib raltar.

The police sea of infinite service. Capt. Barry, of the East Carberry ' was on the' spot in half an hour, and not a single rope or spar has been plun.l dered or lost--a thing unexampled to shipwrecks. Alr. Rutland, of the Courcey police, with his men, relieved the East Carbery. The country people were remarkably quiet and well conducted, and assisted to save the men. The ship is a total wreck. SCILLY, FED. 25.—The cargo of the schooner Calypso, from Cork to London, has been landed, and about fifty quarters of oats (damaged) have been sold.

Nockton packet, from the Wtst Indies to Fal mouth, on the llith Feb.; and on the 30th Feb. the Margaret, Morrison, from Liverpool to turccoa, by the Mercury, arrived at Plymouth. IRELAND. There is no foundation for the report that Sheehan, who is accused of having been concerned in the murder of the Franks family, had been apprehended near Hospittle in the county of Limerick. It seems that a search had been made for him, but, as appears from the annexed para graph, which we copy from the Linn rick Chronicle of yes terday it proved an unavailing one. "114 2:.th Regiment, and Police, from Ennis, on Friday and Saturday, searched the vicinity of Ballinacally, without effect, for Sheehan. the murderer of the Franks family, where it was thought he had been lurking." The Dub Epenirg Post says, "It is rumoured that a serious law-suit is likely to take place between his Grace the Duke of Devonshire and a Bench of Magistrates, in the neighbourhood of Dungarvan. It is stated as a certain fact that the Marquis of Hastings has declined the Government of Malts. A dissolution of Parliament is confidently spoken of in August next. Some letters from London speak very posi tively on this point. —Cork Southern Rrrti•rtcr. 'S --_~..~s _ h. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. HUNTING APPOINTMENTS FOR THE IS EEK.

The supply of Grain in general in the last seek was rather short. but a pretty extensive arrival of Flour. Real fine ‘Vheat sold readily ut the commencement of the morning at an tulvaace of 2s. per qr. oa last Monday's rates, but the trade was afterward* very heavy, and no improvement can be noted on price of middling and inferior Samples. The price of Flour continues nominally 65e. per sack. Rye was heavy sale sod rather cheaper. The besi Samples of malting Barley were taken off at much the same prices as tilt day week; middling malting and grinding Harley was not in much demand. The quality of the Oats left unsold from last week being mostly inferior, found but few buyers to-day, and no variation in the currency tiom this day week can be stated. Beans and Yeas were both exceedingly dull sale, though not cheaper. In Linseed, Rapeseed. or other Seeds, there was no material alteration in prices of this day week. SMITHFIELD, MONDAY, MARCH 1. We have a tair thew of Beasts this morning, and aiming them we observe a considerable number of very tine large Lircolns, of most excellent quality. Norfeiks are also plentiful, there be. ing at least one thou,and on the Mile-end Road; but these are not equal in goodness to what we have lately seen at this mar. ket. 'rhe sales of all descriptions were pretty brisk, on the same terms as last week. We have more sheep a. marker than oa last Monday, and they also go off' at last week', pricer. Calves are scanty, and they hare r.ady sale at from Is. to ,To. ild., and for a few Its, sal obtait ed. We hare no alteration in Pc: it here ; at Barnet, this ino ning, dairy-fed was Ss. there being few pip at market. MA RY-LA-BONNEOFFICF A gentleman named Fox appeared before snatrXD Garr• rimn, Esq. the Sitting 3lagietrate, hvprefar a charge maim a young gentleman of the name of heard, AI o tad put bun in bodi:y fem. Mr. Fox stated, that a few days since the defendant called at his lodgings, and insisted on seeing him. His servant said he (Mr. F.) was not at home, but invited defendant up stairs. 'When Mr. Fox arrived, he was informed that a gentleman was up stairs who wished to see him. Witness accordingly went up stairs, and saw the defendant for the ::rst time. He begged to know his business, when the defendant immediately opened he by stating, that he wished to know by what authority he dared to sp e ak disre spectfully of a lady who wes the wife of the tkft•rdant. The wit. ness denied ever saying any thing disrespectful of the lady, but had expressed his hope that she had married well, as he knew she possessed some property. The defendant then said—" For your base coaduct I will have satisfaction; I have got a brace of pistols, and we can decide it over the table." I have also reason to believe he has been hostler to Tapley. Mr. GRIFFITH asked Mr. Fox it he thought his life in danger? Mr. Fox—l certainly do. Mr. Heard, in reply, stated, that what Mr. Fox had stated was a gross falsehood ; that he never thought of pistols or had any ; that Mr. Fox went about the City aspersing a family of :he greatest respectability ; that Mr. Fox had stated that defendant's father was nothing but a fire-lighter at the India House; that when he called on Mr. Fox he locked the door and drew a knife from his pocket. but did not open it. Defendant wished to leave, and on his going down stairs Mr. Fox followed him, saying at the same time that he would thrust it into him if ever he saw him again. Mr. fin rrir H said, that as Mr. Fox store that his life was in danger, Mr. Heard must find bail to keep the peace. Mr. Heard said he hoped that he would grant hint a similar security, as in reality Mr. Fox was the aggressor. Mr. flistiwrlTH said he could not, under the circumstances as they now appeared before him. MARRIED.

Lyne, I).D. 52 years Vicar of that parish ; • gentleman of extensive erudition, but of very cc.-cittrie habits.— His distinguishing peculiarity was a dread of contamination. He scrupulously avoided not only direct contact v.ith the human ape ees, but with any thing that had been touched by others. He suf. freed no one to approach within a certain distance of his person ; nor would he put on a garment of any kind, until it had passed through a series of ablutions, and had been thorou e Aly fumigated by himself. Even money he would not touch, unless it had bean passed ttimu:;h water, and, either by himself, or in his pretence, cleaned, by brushing, front its contracted impurities. Until within a few days of his decease, he uniformly rose at a very early hour, and retired to his study, where, with the intervals of minis, he continued secluded the greater part of the day. tot permitting to himself, even in the cokiest weather, the indulgtruso of a ire. To his abstemious mode of living, and rigid adheret•cc to rule. may Cer. tainly be attributed the protracted term of his life, and his freedom from bodily disease.
