TIVE:MILIT4RY AT 11ACCLESFIILD. - The following is an extract of a private letter from Mac eleafield, dated Aug. 19:— " In these days of exaggeration sad iraisrepressetation, I think it right to Worm you of the true elate of an r• see at this place, relative to the 90th regiment, which will tre no doubt snsgnifieil and distorted by the seditious press. " A private of the regiment was tried • few days since by a regimental court-martial, for insubordinate evaded, and was miaowed to corporeal penislonstet. The officers of the regiment having learnt that a conspiracy had been formed by mole of his comrades to rescue the delinquent from pu nishment at all hazards, deemed it pendent to defer the in. flirtiou of it until they should &Heist the presence of some other troops. Application having been made to Major- Geiteral Sir hoses Lyon, who cononsands at Alauthester, he, with the most laudable promptitude and vigour, proceeded himself to Macclesfield with two squadrons of the Dragoon Guards, and three compapies of the 40th Foot. The dif. ferent corps were mseinided at an early hour this morning, and the puoishment was inflicted withuut the smallest act of insubordination on the part of any individual, and the 99th marched off the ground to new caidounsents is another part of Cheshire." There is also a communication from the Mayor and other Magistrates et Macclesfield, in jollities to Lieutenant-Culonel Austin, and the officers and privates of his Majesty's 90th regiment, to declare, that the insubordinate spirit inaeifested by a few men of that corps, at the instigation of an ill-dis persed individual, had no reference whatever to the Bill of Pains and Penalties now in progress against the Queen's Majesty, ur to the Queen's Majesty at all. CELEBRATION OF CHESTER JNI) EPENDENCK BY THE FRIENDS OF SIR J. G. EGERTON. Opt Tuesday se`tittight, about eleven o'clock, the fig of Oulton was merit waving from the tower of St; John's church, and very soon after its beaut►fol hells struck up a merry peal, which was respunded to by those of St. Michael's. St. Bridget's, St. Pe ter's, Trinity, and the Cathedral. Between twelve :old one, the Freemen began to assemble before the Albion ; and soon after one, sack a group of electors as we believe never congregated on one aide in Cluster, began fo 111 l nig in line, among whom were associated the great majority of the most respectable inhabitants, friends to Sir John and the freedom of election. Nut less than two thousand persons were in the procrs-ion, a►tl when it had arrived at the Albion, where Sir John and Colonel Tuwnahend alighted, the c avalcade was i 11111 l mar ; from the two churches to the cod of Duke -street, a solid mass occupied the street. Presently after Sir J. G. Egerton, with Col. Townsbend, appeared on the portico, ►n (root of the hotel, when the latter gentleman addressed the assemblage. Immediately after the Colonel's speech. the mul- Mode began to disperse, and made way for numer ous coaches and carts to puts up and down Bridge. street, which had been completely blocked up. It had been announced, that the dinner in. the park would be on the table at half-past four ; and when this period arrived, it was made known by the firing of two field-pieces, which had been placed its a field beluoging to Air. Mou!son, on the south bank of the Dee, which were fired at intervals the remai ll lig . part of the evening. In a short time after the Kites of the park were thrown open, the imvitioto was crowded with guests, whets the tables were found loaded, if not with sumptuous, at least abundance of wholesome amid substantial fare. The number originally contemplated was twine hundred, hut we believe there were not less than furrieeu hun dred seated at the same time, nor below six teen "undyed in the whole. The bill of fare was low. Beef, ramps sad rounds 1 7OO lbs. Mutton, different joints Besides vegetables, &c. Plum•puddings (52) 1,040 1111. Good old ale, 1,1380 gallons. There were four Vice-Presidents at rach table, 'she'd at equal distances from each other, and ma s king in the whole forty-eight. lus•wdiately after dustier, the toasts commenced. The President then ruse for the purpose of pre aerrissie • oplessdid piece •f plate, and addressed the worthy Bar•uee. Sir !lowland Hill, Colonel BArnaton, and several other Gentlemen, also ►poke at length. TEA PARTY AM) BALL. • When the festivities of Tuesday were concluded, the Committee cons dered that some mask of re vtrect•was due •to sbe female friends of Sir John Egerton, to Whom the cause of independence is so tauch indebted; and it was therefore determined to give them as immediate entettsuirwent he the same paiilion, where their relatives and Mends had just received the well-earned raihote of c i v ic ra til u d e . The variegated limps wheel► had been hung in fes toons amidst the loads of laurel t hat &cowed - it, were reprepared with considerable additions. The is.. bin which had occuph d the lower half of the I►gvi -laon were removed, leaving a clear space for dalac tasg of about lOU feet by 40, while the reu►aiuing tl►e tables were hell to accommodate the tea parties. About five o'clock the park-gates were opened, when crowd, of elegant nod wall-dre►sed females entered. The small:err so far exceeded what the Cot • tee had calculated upoo, that although before, as they thought, amply provided, they were obliged to scud out every cheect:on, to put in requisition all that the bakers' shops could futelasit fin the occasion. The first party which sat down to tea filled the tables which the day before had held upwards of Gun persons to dine ; but thew oat so much closo-r on this occasion tit it the number may be fairly tsti mated, at from seven to eight hinulrid. These tables were twice entirely. sod a third time 'worn ally filbd. so that little short of two thousand •ladies partook of this cirli,ightful beverage. Nu ottoir refreshment was provided. At about half pr!..t pi'', when few but frinaks were adnetted. toe gates were thrown Open, and all pints of the pork. as well us the pavilion. and snore particularly the bowliog•greru, became crowded to ricers. Sir John and Lady Egeoton atom after made their appearance. and were reet teed with that eiithin.iiistu winch always accompanies this chum piaci of our independence. After Lady Tkerton ►el paid her respects to the company in the end beet. greeted with their miles and plaudits. the merry dance commenced. The band, consisting of thirty-eight perforate. stench up the Triaseph. wheel' was led off by Lady Egerton ■nd Colonel Towodimed, followed by Sir John Egerton aad Lady Semliki's«, sod in as Umlaut sets of dancers were termed-in sla parts of the rap. This was .use of the most gratifying spectacles . 'list can be conceived; some of the most respectable ladies in the city. And neighbourhood were present. who op ;warred to enjoy the scene with unusual embiey. Among the rest of the company we noticed Sir An drew and Lidy Corbel. Sir David Kinlorh, Lady. and family, Mr. Venable*, Mr. Sedgwick, mud Major Cotton. PRESENTATION OF A SUPERB VASE 70 TN. RIGHT HON. EARI. FITZWILLIAR. Little more than three months ago (says the Midfield Iris) we mentioned that a sol►erb vase, of silver-plate, hail been manufactured by Messrs. Watson, Pass. and Co. in this town (the expense being defrayed by individual contributions of one penny eschi, for the purpose of being ptesented to the Right Hou. Earl Fitiwillrant, by the artisans of this town and neighbourhood, as a testimony of their respect and approbation of his exemplars• and patriotic conduct during the twenty years he bad held the offices of Lord Lieutenant and Casio, Kolidoriiiii of this Riding. A deputation from that meritorious clays, consisting of Messrs. Lee, Met tam, Jowet, Eyre, Green, Bates, Betts, Moulson. and Knowles, having previously made the necessary arrangement. on Friday mornin g set out from Mr. Stevens's, Campo-lane, firming a small cavalcade, in ,enter to execute the ceremony of its presentation. The company reached Wentworth House about twelve o'clock, and were very courteously tvcrived. and conducted into the pillared-hall by the Rev. Mr. Lowe and Mr. Byrom. They had only time to arrange themselves in proper order, when it was announced that his Lordship was in readines to re cerVe them. Being directed up the grand stair case into the saloon, they were here ushered into the presence of the venerable I'eer, having on his right hand Lord Milton, and on his left the Coun tess Fitxtvilliarn, Lady Milton. and her numerous family. The company having formed themselves into a semicircle. the vase in the Doman time hieing taken out of the case, amid put into ties hands a Mr. Prior, its ingenious artisan, Mr. Knowles ad dressed his Lordship as follows : •' Confident, lily Lord, that you will exercise that candour which characterises you► Lordship, ■nd expect no more from myself and friends than our situation as mechanics will warrant, I feel in% self considerably relieved front that embarrassment which I should otherwise have laboured under. " My Lord, the inlisboants of Sheffield cud its vicinity (artisans in general), deeply impressed with a sense of the many and great advsutages derived from the manner in which your Lordship discl►arg ed the.duties connected with the high mud Wirer taut offices of Lord Lieutenant and Casio:: Motu /*runs of the West Riling of this county, felt them selves imperiously called upon to bear thei► public lestimoily to the same; but conscious that we were not competent to offer your Lordship an address sufficiently expressive of our feelings of regard, gra titude, ■nd veneration, entertained for your Lord ship's character aid conduct, it was resolved to en ter into a subscription of one penny each, to purchase a piece of !date, which should be of Sheffield inane. factu►e, to present to your Lordship, and theirby to express our denim etas of respect mid inviolable at tachment to your Lordship's pc rson, which such dis miguished services awakened iu our breast. Were we to have remained silent an the occasion that has given rise to this embassy, ingratitude would have been sniped upon us in indelible characters, and have rendered us unwolthy the name and character of u►en. Sloping your Lordship will live many years yet to come, and that you may see those virtues natured that are manifested by him who is rising to fill the station and hold the titles your Lordship now holds —virtues so exemplary, cod which have been so eminer►tly displayed by your Lordship—is the sincere rod ardent wish of those who do themselves the t onour of presenting your Lordship with this To which his Lood,liip returned the following answer : Although in this Address, which has mecum monied the iisratituable present I now hold in my leaod, toe esuse 4/1 prclenting it ia not expressed iu direct terms, it is however PO designated that 1 can not well mistake it. " Mv dismissi from the offices of his Majesty's Lieutenant and Cusfos Bota/urerra of tire West Wiling, an worse's!, censure arid *vial mark of royal displeasure, has induced you, my worthy neighbours and kind friends, to bring this unequi vocal testimony of the sense you entertain of the mariner in which I clischafged, during the l un g course of time I held those high and important offices. their respective duties. " Far be it from me to call in question the en doubted prerogative of the Crown to select officers fur every depsiturent of the Slate; as little do I doubt the right of dismission without cause for such dismission ; but though I do riot arrogate a claim to explanation f his Majesty's Mirosters fur such s measure of censure, I du claim a right of viudie.ating, berme the triesuoal of my neigh. boors and countrymen, my character against all implied ropers" , from whatever quarter they may come (the higher the _ more urgent the yin. dicutiou). And, therefore, I now challenge my defamers to sliew, that, in any one instance. I ever eluded or shrunk from the due execution of time du ties required of my official trust : an the contrary, fearless of contnuliction, I assert, that at all times', and on all occasions, I exercised those duties' with actisity, with zeal, and, above all, with unshaken and unimpeached fidelity. Other causes, there fore,- foreign to the duties of my offices, must be sought for to account for his Majesty's Ministers having recommended to his Majesty to brand me with so signal a mark of royal displeasure : what ever they may be, I noxiously wish that they were brought into an open examination : I desiire no other than that every act of my public life may be subjected to the severest *Twiny. I feel a cosi fillence shat m no one nation., shall I be hound to have acted a disloyal part towards my King, no more than so unfriendly one to the rights mid liber ties ul my Gilow-rubirets ; it has ever been tie anxious wish of my life to hold the balance in just equilibrium ; to maintain amid uphold the cranium. tisnid Bawer and authority of the Crown ; to guard and preserve the rights cud liberties of the people : its dim to stand by the constitution as handed down to as by our oneessore..• eonstitution. the odor ration and envy of the enlightened world admired • . . . . fry . them tor the ben . ty of its (feudal*. ottored by us for the blessing it imparts of equal laws, impar tially admisistered. laws that take under their pro teetioo the imsocent.that firing nailer their scourge the guilty. of whatever rank or class they may hap pen to he. " Impressed with theie opinions, my conduct in public life has ever been regulated by the princi ples that naturally spring out of them. If at any time I have thought the authority of Government iii danger of being infringed, I have lent ruy aid in its support. If ever I hive seen a disposition to bear hard upon the people, I have not been slow in com iiik to their assistance. " And now. my kind friends. it is • consolation, it is a gratification so use to find that you, wider whose immediate eye I have lived and acted in toy public capacity, Mine in the hour of my reproof to greet inc with your approbation : I feet it the more, be castor it is my pride to call you to witness, that I have never courted popular favour by a dereliction of duty : no occasion raver arose when it became my duty to act in my public character, that you did not see use fly to my prat ; the exorcisms*. then. of your regard are greatly enhanced in importance by atfOrthog nie the pleasing presumption, that, even iii the performance of public duty, my con duct was such as not to alienate from sue your good opinion. " But when I cast lily eye upon this beautiful and valuable vase, slid hiving first admired the wonderful perfection so which the arliaans of Shef field have carried this distinguished branch of manufacture, I am then led to reflect upon its in. trinsic value, and to wonder at its completion, when I consider the slender memos adopted for the purpose. I thank yoti, my innumerable blend., for the univeral coincidence of your favour and kind ness, which, by the great and intrinsic value of the prevent, a established; and when I reflect that this is not • period of prosperity and mfHuesice, but, on the contrary, of adversity and deep distress, my gratitude cuss know no bounds. I cahoot express its extent, but by assuring you that this proof of the good opinion of my neighbours, furnishes a pillow of comfort for • closing life ; and when it shall please Providence to remove me from this world, I shall bequeath this vast to eny•son—out to inspire him with love for his febow-subjects (feelings imbibed by him from his earliest.youth), but, by the•slaily sight of it, to keep ever in his re collection, that the good opinion rod grind a ill of his neighbours and courdrymen will afford him through life more satisfaction, and in his latter days snore real comfort, than all the hereditary titles that necessarily devolve on him, and all the distinctions that can be conferred on hien by the highest powers of the state."

On Sunday morning NO, at about ten o'clock, Philip Singleton, aged 26 years. who was convict ed of being pres. nt at the murder of Mr. %Vm. Notion. on the 13th of last February, was taken from the county gaol. escorted by a strung party of the Scotch Greys, under the command of Captain %Volvo. to Alallow ; and on the next day to Lis carrot, where he underwent the sentence of the law. The crowds assembled oil the occa►ion were sin. melon-, thousands toning flocked at in rattly hour to Liscarrol, to witness so novel a spectacle. The convict was attended by the Rev. John England, and appeared to be extremely penitent stud very firm. At tile place of execution the clergyman read, in iirelence of the Prisoner, in English, fur the Sheriff and those !ardent, the declaration which the Prisoner had restiotouly dictated to Lim in Irish, and which was on substance— That shout the beginning of last spring he and other labourers of the neighbourhood began to assemble sit night, for the purpose of consulting upon the best means of obtaining potato ground nit terms they could fulfil—most of the lindlords haw. iog the grounds in their owe possession, very few of the labourers could obtain any ; •nd those who did were generally obliged to pay eight er ten guineas per acre, which they were to general unable to make up. After some short time badly disposed persons came amongst them, and proposed an oath of se crtsy, which was very generally taken. They next determined to turn up the lea grounds of many persons, for the purpose of compelheig them to let tinier grounds for culture. Their next object was to procure arms for the purpose of defending themselves in ease of an attack. They then searched for them generally, without any definite object, red proceeded when armed to coininit sevens! petty outrages. lie acknowledged liming been frequently out on those nightly excursions, but ugly ou three year sions at the taking of aims. Ne oleo stated that he had informed the clergy man where the arms he had were cuiscraled ; they were two guns, cue of which belonged to a Mr. John Browile of the neighbourhood of Chorleville, but that he was not present at the taking of the arms from Mr. Blower. The other gun beloegid to a Mr. litiby. near Urea's mills, oil the bordets of the county of Limerick.

Mr. Eng land stated that lie had received this information, and would act upon it to the best of his judgment for the public limo,. The convict went on to state his contrition fur his participation in those crimes, and acknowledged that his life was thereby justly forfeited to the laws of hit country, and to the public welfare—*lest he hoped his ,fate would be a warning to his deluded companions, and that lie trusted they would be in (bleed to have early recurrence to those means of reconciliation with offended heave.,, from which be had, he trusted through the mercy of redemption, now received benefit; cud to insure which as much as lay iu his power, he now willingly and eubenis steely received his death from the hands of God. As to the particular tact fur which he was sen tenced to die, he stated, that although there were many circumstances to which he did not feel him self at liberty to advert, which may explain his innocence of the crime with which he was charged, to be compatible with the innocence from actual perjury of the witnesses against him—yet he must soy, that though in the presence of God, lie had to accuse himself of criminality, be was innocent in the eye of the law. The tact was, that he did agree with sonic other persons, to go on the 13th of February to the house of Mr. Nation. for arm% and on the moruitig of that day he brought a pistol through the country under his coat, but he positively could Riot be veto with it at mass, because he had nut been at moss on that day ; but in the evening he went orearoard to the Killeen% which war the appointed rendezvous, and within about two miles of Mr. Nepali's house, but nut meeting It,. illigletlata i , 111 C went in • &de tent direction. and was not ow that day nor uigbt within less than two miles of Noumea.
