I THE 'LATE 131JHOP OF LANDAFF. " K. LANDAFF." I had mentioned to Mr. Pitt, • little time before, when he called upon me at Cambridge, on acconist of tho election, this rescinding of the resolutions of the /louse or Comma.•, as the first lisines+ which ought to be I ;{ht furwrrd in the new Parliament ; .lolly to spree with me • ; but he changed site,, more inclined the Crown,' than to "'"t* ANECDOTES or Tor-LIFE 07 RICHARD WATSON, *Moil , OF LANDAFF. (Just published) [FURTHER RETRSILTS.I Mr. Fox's Bill was thrown out by the Lords. and Mr. Pitt was soon after made First Lord of the Treasury. The King's interference in throwing out the 'Bill could hot be excused on comities tional • principles, except by the attack which theCum mons bud made on the prerogative by passing the Bill. If you will hot admit the true principle of the constitution, which is the exercise of the King's negative. you • in a manner compel him to the use of his influence over • Parliament, when he con ceives tidier his prerogative to Ise attacked, or-the safety of the country endangered, or even his ca prices restrained by their proceedings. This mode of governing by influenc e, is a dangerous and dis graceful mode ; disgraceful to those over whom it is exerted, and dangerous to the common weal ; in asmuch as it takes away rill responsibility. When a minister can suoction every obnoxious measure by a vote of the House of C 0000 mons, lie screens himself from all Incur& crionsre, by snaking those also ought to be his accuser* partakers of Iris misde meanors. Soon after this 1 went to London, and on calling ass the Duke of Illitlasid I thought there was an unusual thalamic in his manner, nut great enough to found a direct quarrel on, and yet mu great for me to submit to, nit' nut assuming ass equal dis tance ass my part ; this soon In:night linn to a little better temper. Lord Shelburne told me at the time. that lie was afraid somebody had been endea vouring to make mischief between the Duke of Rutland and myself, ms account of my not coining to oppose the India Bill. He did not tell me who the person was who had done me this injury, nor did nit suspicion. till several years afterwards. fall on Mr. Pitt ; our du I know whether it has fallen rightly at last. I hope it has toot; for though I must ever consider it as a bad trait in Mr. Pitt's character that 1 never experienced from hint the slightest retorts of gratitude for the services winch I had reoffered him, whew lie stood most in need of them at Cambridge, yet I am unwilling to think of him as havisig possessed a little and revengeful mind. stooping to injury those who would nut be come :the' blind instruments of his ambition. per Coal Shelburne to uudevstaud, that the Duke of Rutland might digest his displeasure as be could, for I would sneer utter a syllable in explanation or in excuse for my conduct ou the occasion ; that his Grace had experienced from me many and import ant instances of my regard, and that I was ready to give biro more with respect to his private concertos ; but as to my public conduct, I would ever assert to myself the right of private jnilgnsent, independ ent of all parties. This doctrine I could perceive was quite new to Lord Shelburne, and, iu troth. few great meu can relish it ; they want adherent., and they esteem sin man who will not be their in strument. This plant dealing with meta its power made many prism's say that I knew not the world ; they were mistaken ; I knew it, but I despised it ; 1 knew well enough that it was not the way to pro cure preferment; I remembered what I had learnt as a hey, the different effects of obregrioassess sod of truth ; " Marquises:Mit" yentas odium parit ;" mail I preferred, as a man, the hitter. My friend the Bishop of Peterborough once said to me, " Von are the most straight-forward man I ever met with." was not displeased at his remark, for the ride of rectitude is but one, whilst the devietions from it may be infinite. The Parliament was dissolved on the 25th of March, 1784. Mr. Pitt had, fur several weeks pre vious to its dissoletiou, continued in office iu direct opposition to the majority of the House of Coin mono. I looked np:ois this proceeding as establish ill( a dangerous precedent ; for though the House could not be justified in censuring a Minister who bad done no act that was censurable, vet it is to be decided that the precedent thus set, of continuing • Minister in his place in opposition to a majority of the House of Commons, only hereafter he re sorted to by the Crown on occasions less justifiable. The numberless addresses, however, which were presented to the Kirrg against the Coalition Mi n officiently shoved the setae of the nation to be with Nlr. Pitt. Now I consider the clear and decided voice of the people to he superior, nut only to the House of Comuunsr, but to the whole Legislature ; I hope, therefore, that no mischief will conic to the con stitution from this example. It was not so much the Oserogative of the Crown which kept . Mr. I'itt in his place, and set the House of Commonest de fiance, as it was the sense of the nation,. winch, on this occasion, was in direct contradietiiin to the sense of the House of Commons. Ilia, at that tune very well acquainted with Mr. Pitt, and took the liberty to make known to him my sentiments in the following letter : " Cambridge, 121% May, 17114. " DEAR SCR—Will you allow nee to say, that I think you CIEMOt Collilliee minister with that high tense of hoeuesr which I wish you to du, whilst dm resolutiows of the 1,14 /lunar of Commons respecting you stand uablotted from the Jourisalt. You have now nu opportunity .of healing the wound which many think you inliicied on the eienstieestion by remaining in purer in opposition t o the seine of the Commons, if 'um profess your readiness to retire, provided the new House of Reprearestatives, which (from its being as recently elected) must he supposed to speak the voice ut the people, should he of the same opinion relative to you that she last was. Fur it is a part of my Wilma, creed, that thr voice of the people, whenever it can hr clearly known, and I think it is clearly bowie to he with you, is suet tought to he supreme in the state. I bag your paiilun fur the freedom with which I deliver my sentiments ; you are in• dibted to the regard I have fur your diaiisteerotednear and integrity, said to .tlee hope I have that Yon may du teal service to the country, that I trouble you with anuopittioa at all, " 1 awl. listen to the voice of the people, for nothing of the kind was ever roentioned in the House of Commons. In a letter which I wrote to Mr. Pitt, in July, 1784, amongst other political considerations was the following otnlei'Vation :—" I tremble Fur Ire land ; it will he lost to this country, unless , you give way to the licontlar disposition ; it was what is callealfirownets which despoiled us of America : it would inimortalise your name, and the name of our friend, the Mike of Millard, V you could ac complish on nu void and liberal liaising, an union of Me two kingdows. Theis would Britain and Ireland have but one interest ; and it is rank lib surtlity in politics to expect any cordiality between them, whilst their interests are separate." Sixteen years after this, Mr. Pitt accomplished the union here recommended to his ottention ; but it was not attempted till a rebellion in Ireland. supported by a Freuch invasion, had well nigh realised the fears I lard entertained, of its being lost to this country : nor was is at last accomplished in the liberal Way it oaght to hare been done. Much about the same time I wrote to the Duke of Rutland, who was then Lord Lieutenant of Ire land ; the following extract from the letter I then , sent him will shew how strongly the necessity of an union had occupied my mind, and how much I wished to see it e&cteil Ireland, and every other distant part of our empire, has for many years been impoliticly considered, and oppressively teeated.merely as r sourceof wealth to this country. My very heart is grieved at the idea of one nation being oppressed that another may be rendered rich ' and luxurious. The governmesit ought to tidy an equal attention to the interests of all its component parts. and whether the lands and manufactures of Great Britain or Ireland are likely to be in the ino.t flourishing condition, should never be a ques tion. but how we may render them in both coun tries as flourishing as possible. I told Mr. Pitt, some time ago, that both your name and his would be immortalised, if an union between the two kingdoms on an equal and liberal footing could be established. Scotland has felt the advantages of on union ; Ireland would feel the sante in her turn, and instead of grinding the faces of the poor Asi atics, to make them pay the debts of Great Bri tain, we should become the most powerful nation in Europe, by relying on nothing but the FREY. COMMERCE and the full cultivation of the lands of the two islands." Had the measure, recommended in my above letter to the Duke of Rutland, been at that time adopted, the state of the continent of Europe would either nut hare been what it now is, ur we should have been better able to resist the storm which threateuia us. than we are now. In twenty-two years Great Britain and Ireland would have become er. Idly united, and been so mutually strengthened by their cordiul coalescence. that France, and all her tributary kings, might have excited our surprise, but not our apprehension. 1 1:4 awl he armed at that tune salad lit the proproly of the meareire lot tniori, or was over-ruled by ta exalt the vrerogative of tit 4 4* • • FIRE; •BERDEEN, DEC. 27. Ou Christmas-day, just as the communion tier vice had begun, one of the most alarming fires took place in St. Andrew's Chapel, King-street, which we have almo.t ever seen. At one time, there was not the smallest doubt but that this beau tiful building would, in the course of a few hours, have been a pile of ruins. The fire was occasioned by the over-heating of the stoves, the flues of which having got red, communicated with the outer casiug, and from thence to the pipes which pass under the organ gallery for the heating of the chapel. Oa the first alarm, the congregation retired in a very orderly manner, without any accident ; and by the time the fire-engines were brought, the flames had burst out from under the organ plat form, and ascended more than half the height of the instrument. By the great exertions of those who had the charge of the fire-engines, and of the incalculable multitude that formed lines !Or the conveying of water from the various fire-cocks and wells in the neighbourhood, as well as from the harbour, the Barrack-yard, and even from the further extremity of North -street, very fortunately the fire was checked, and, by perseverance and the must judicious management of the water, it was ultimately subdued, without extending further than the gallery, in which it originally began. The damage is but trifling, in comparison to what was apprehended ; and, what is very singular, although the organ appears to have been surrounded with five, yet no tart of the instrument has been touched by it, and the only injury it has received was from the water, whit 4 was discharged in torrents from the engines, the pipes of which were conveyed to the roof. rooTrADs.—On Monday ►sight, between eleven moil twelve o'clock, as the Rev. Wst.taa WREN DIIIFFIELD, in his way Nome from Kelvedot► to Freering, he was stopped on the road leading from Gore, Pit, and near the village of Freering,- by two men, who, after robbing I of considemble pro. Iwrty, knocked him down with great violence. They rubbed him of a gold watch, chain, and two seal►, three gold rings, Bank of England notes, and Colchester Bank notes and cash, to a consider able amount. Between seven and eight o'clock on Thursday evening, the Itith ultimo, a must barbarous and inhuman murder was committed at the village of Alvaston, ■bout three sulks south of Derby, upon the body ides. elderly woman, of the a me of Gra•totex, wife of a man, also far advanced in life, who uccippies ■ few neves of land, nail keeps three or roar cow..

FIELD SPORTS. [From "British Field Sports," Part 111. filler pk6l4lled On the approacl► of the shooting season, it is co 11111 l on, both in town and country, to are staunch pointers advertised at the price of ten guineas ; but in a country like ours, high qualification will ever command a high price, a thing perfectly ►n the natural course. An eminent example of this, was the ►ale of Colonel Thornton's.pointer. Dash, which h:►d in him, a dose crass of the fix hound, to the lute Sir Iticluird Symons, fur one hundred and sixty pOunds worth of Cla►mpaign and Burgundy, purchased at the salt of the French Ambassador t one hogshead of claret, an elegant gun, and au other pointer; with the condition annexed, that. in case of any accident befalling the dog, rendering hint unfit for service, he should be returned to the seller, at the price of fifty guineas. This really happened : Dash accidentally breaking his leg, was returned to his former master, who considered him, in that state, a great acquisition as a stallion.— Dash was the Eclipse of pointers, his natural in stinct being so superior. and his scent so fine, that without any necessity of quartering or hunting over his ground, he was it► the constant habit of marching direct up to his birds ! He was besides wonderfully steady iu backing tither dogs. As • proof too, of the high perfection of training of which the pointer is susceptible in Ale hands, Plato sod Juno, the property of Colonel Thornton, were sketched in the field for their portraits, whilst pointing, by the late Mr. Gilpin. both of them steadily keeping their point, during upwards of un lour and a quarter, until the sketcher were finished. The French double-Nosed roister has not yet fallen under my observation, but I cannot find that the apparent channel which divides the nostrils of the animal, has been intentionally imposed by any breeding contrivance. The spaniel is • dog of high antiquity, ■nd I►as ever been applied to his present purposes, namely, those of finding and bringing game, when killed, to his ►vaster, whether by land or water ; and although there is • regular variety of spaniels, the province of which is the water, spa niels in general, have no aversion to it, of which their coats is an indication; and perh.►ps all smooth coated spaniels are such, in consequence of some mixture of breed. There is a sort of symmetry and delicacy proper to the true-bred spaniel, which is particularly discoverable in the head and ear, and fineness of the flew; yet he ought to have great substance, and by no means to stand high upon the leg. The coat of the water-spaniel is more harsh and curled. Our land-spaniels seem to have no other material division at present. than into the great or springers, and the small, among which last are the cocking spaniels, and King Charles's breed, dercended from the favourites of Charles. the Second, and distinguished by the roof of time mouth being black, and certain other characteris tics. The royal variety is much tiii ii iaa hiked, and fast wearing out : :rod, indeed, the sinalitst and most delicate breed of -priniels, is far snore fit for time carpet than the thicket, I►ein g the most elegant and attractive comforters. lu Spain and Italy, their spaniels are naturally excellent, and the Kings of Spain and Naples were formerly wont to keep them in great pract►ce. The cringing and fawning of the spaniel, have always been proverbial ; bait his affection and fide -1 lity are equally so. Of this, Mr. D an iel, w h ose high-valued spaniels, 1 remember to have seen the crack of the county of Essex, has given us various anecdotal proofs, part of which, I shall tr e spass on hias yet further, to transcribe from his rural sports. In an early period of our history, a mur derer was discovered to the King, by the sagacity and attachment of a spaniel to his dead master ; sad doting the late Irish Insurrection one of the Gaited Irishmen, shut at Vinegar Hill, left for dead, and his supposed corpse covered with earth sand stones, was actually scratched said digged up by his faithfulsipaniel, which finding him, cleaned the earth and blaod from his face, by licking it, until a resuscitation ensued, and the manfully recovered, and was seen seven years afterwards in perfect health ! Another truly impressive and authentic story we have, of the game-keeper and Ins dog, of a most respectable and convivial octogenarian sportsman, who the present writer wishes may be flaw in the usual enjoyment of his bottle and his friend. .4 The game• keeper of the Rev. Mr. Car sellis (of Wirenlioe, Essex) had reared a spaniel, and which was his constant attendant, both by night and day : whenever old Daniel appeared, Dash was close behind him ; and the dug was of infinite use in his nocturnal excursions. The game, at that season, lie never regarded, although in the day time no spaniel could find it in a bet ter style, or in greater quasetity ; but at night, if a strange foot had entered slay of the coverts, Dash, by a significant whine, itiforined his master that the enemy were abroad ; and many poachers have beets detected and caught from this MI ugu ler intelligence. After mislay years friendly connexion, old Daniel was seized with a disease, winch terminated iii a consumption and his death. While the slow but fatal progress of his disorder allowed bins to crawl about, Dash as usual followell his footsteps; and when nature was stall further exhausted, and lie took to his bed, at the foot of it, unwearily attend ed the faithful animal; and when lie died, the dog would out quit the body, but lay upon the bed by its side. It was with difficulty he was tempted to eat alit' food; and old gh after the burial, he was 1 taken to the hall, sand caressed with all the tender ness which so fond an attachment naturally called forth, lie tovk a very opportu.sity to steal hack to the room in the collage, where his old master breathed his lust: there lie would remain for hours; from whence lie daily visited Isis grave, and at the end of 11 days, notwithstaudiag every kitidoess and attention iliewu him, lie literally died broken lo iii ted !
