" We entrust your Erre lency, that in any communications which eli irk necessary shou d be laid before his Majesty or ea the subject of this traitorous attempt, you will be pleased not to represent it as tlie art of this country or this city, but of a set of heated and misguided persons, infuriated by the spirit of • dangerous, and desperate, and misguided Faction, one of the unfortunate consequences of our intestine di, Wiens. " Again, Sir, we present our sincere essagratulations on y our . presidential escape from the blows of the assassin, and our just tribute of admiration at the matchless spirit, and the personal in trep dity which you so eminently and instantaneous:, displayed ,upon that trying occasion; we implore Providence to grant you long life, and to preserve you as an iustniteent in the hands of our most gracious Sovereign, to extend t. e blessings of a mild and parental Government to all orders and descriptions of your coun trymen, and poor the balm of his conciliatory wisdom over the fatal and hoset-rending distention, of your native country. " We beg to express our earnest and fervent hope that your ExceUeory may long continue among us, and we sincerely trust that the same spirit which has guided your Excellency in t rightful discharge of your duty, aud in the furtherance of his ilk jesty's benignant letter of admonition and injunction, may coatie*/ to preside over and to direct your auspicious conduct, undetern4 by any attempt, luwever premeditated, to overawe or to control you in the impartial exercise of your just authority: confideot as you 'WS( be that your Government will thereby secure to itself tie blessings of a people, rejoiced nt,being at length re:Weed front those wearisome dissentions whiek have so long delayed the har mony and prosperity of our common country. `s Gush a system wilt be minable render your, Government po pular aaikaectart,i such a system must render Ireland happy, for with it yob may not only defy, bat must defeat the enemies of her coneortl, aad thus will the glories of the far-famed House of Wid. 'este/ be transmitted to posterity al ng with the novel, and, we trust, imperishable record of Ireland's tranquillity and f..eedoin.' To this Address, which was very emphatically pro nounced by ihe Lord Mayor, his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant delivered ttie following Reply : " Wm.t.zst.nv, "The splendid appearance of this numerous and illustrious assembly, the cordiality and ardour a your congratulations, and par generous and affectionate attachment to my person and stoles. erument, constitutes such an addit on to my honour and my and would adorn the close of a long and active life ' walk lasting glory, that, if the assassin be not yet disarn_sl, my yormsaal interest weird be, that he Arvid strike sole; hut my ono to my God, to my King, and to my Country, forbids such • whit; sad here, in your presence, with the most unfeigned sin cerity, I join my humble hope with your fervent pts,yers thit my life m ay be spared for the service of Ireland, adding, with the game earnestness, that if ever it should prove injurious or useless to her interests and welfare, it will no longer be valuable to me. " No exertions of which any public servant can he capable (however endowed with genius and zeal, or matured by tape-I &wee ("could keep pace with the ptternal solicitude of our bi-' owed Sovereign, for the tranquillity sod prosperity of this into. resting portion of his dominions. Were I possessed of all the qualibcations which you are pleased to ascribe to me, I assure you in the most solemn manlier, tl.at I could scarcely render jus tice to the spirit of benevolence towards Ireland which animate , its Majesty's Royal heart, and which is the unanimous, active, and ardent sentiments of all his counsels. " Whatever may have been the success of my Government, my anxious endeavour has been to pursue the course of his Majesty's Intentions and councils by all impartial exercise of the Executive rower, by a just and mercifu: administration of the law, and by a regular system of mitigating and allaying every cause of irrita tion, and every incentive of discord and divis on. " In relieving the distress of the last dreadful season, I was greatly assisted by many now present: receiving from you this Ito nsurable tribute of your approbation, I desire to extend union to our Countryme . and Fellow-Citizens. "The indignation which the recent outrage has excited in your breasts, is natural and honourable—let me nut be supposed to re prove so just a feeling when I declare, that having placed the consideration of that transaction in the hands of the Law, I leave it to the sacred light of legal justice to discover the origin, pro gress, and object of that disastrous attempt. . So far, however, is my disposition averse from casting upon the nation the crime of individuals, that I consider this event to have called font the true character of my country in the most amiable and vivid colours, and this Assembly attests the justice of my opinioo. ~ On the other hand, neither the danger. wjtb alga my life has been encompassed, i:or any which may still Mona, over me, can disturb the even tenor of my course of government. Sensible of the value of your confide..ce in my firmness, I trust that Pro •idence will never deprive mu of the fortitude required to meet the duties of my station, 4 The great and valuable lesson, however, iueolcated on my mind, as it is upo& yours, is the necessity of labourirg to turn this evil to the public good. Here I claim your most assiduous and active exertions for the peace and honour of our country. To wards this useful, but diffieult work, I tender to you, in true sin cerity of heart, the aid of every faculty, and of all the Aeons which I possess or can acquire; and, recommending to your de liberate and united wisdom sad zeal the calm and dispassionate eonsideen,tipn of the must effectual plan for removing from your society the destructive incentive of division and discord. I im plore the God who has saved my life to enable me to employ what:- ever days may be allotted to me in establishing tLe tranquillity, freedom, and happiness of Ireland." Among the deputation we observed his Grace the I Duke of Leinster, the Earl of Meath, Lord Ardee, 1 O'Conor Don, and several of our most distinguished 1 fellow-citizens. We observed also; and were happy 1 to see them, the Most Rev. the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin, Dr. Troy, and Dr. Murray, the Coadjutor Prelate. These venerable men were in full canoni-1 cals, and wore their crosses . • We never witnessed a scene which affected us so li deeply ; we never saw a Meeting so moved, as the! very distinguished company who were present in Si. :Patrick's Rill ; and certainly, there never was a reply so emphatic, so all of feeling, so pregnant with the fire of youth, and the wisdom of mature age. Immediately after the reception of the Address of the Inhabitants of the City of Dublin, this day, by the Lord Lieutenant, his Excellency held a Levee. There were present sing °theta & his Grape the Duke of Daniel /Murray was indicted 'for stealing, on the sth of December, a gold watch kiln the shop, of Vin Cent Si'vain, at Brighton. The prisoner, who is only fourteen years of age, comet.° the prosecutor's shop on the day in question, and purchased a small gold pin. In the course of the same day he came in, on two other occasions, with Oifferent excuses. About five o'clock in the evening, when the shopman was removing the different articles from the window, teir the night, according to his octal eusioru, he missed the watch. Recollecting that the prisoner had been so often into the shop in the course, of the day, he suspected him to be the person who had taken it. He immediately went in pursuit of lame and found him at a short distance from the shop When he had seized hies, the prisoner began to cry. and sail if he were allowed to go, he would give tip the watch. He then produced it, and was taken back to the shop. A constable was then sent for, and the prisoner taken into custody. Guilty—Death. • Richard Gardiner was indicted for stealing two feather beds, a pillow, and other articles, the property of Sir Richard .Burrows, on the 3d of December, at Brighton. It appears that Lady Burrows, having occasion to leave Brighton, desired a house-agent in that town to take possession or her house, stables, and furniture, until she should return. This he did with regard to the house. It now only remained for him to receive possession of the coach-house and stables. The coachman, who lived over the coach-house, having taken away his horses, sent the prisoner witlt the keys of the stables and his own rooms. Net having any occasion. to go to this place until the.coachaan of Lady Brownlow came to look at ihe premises, the keys remained in the office of the house-agent until that time. On the Above-mentioned occasion, when he tried the keys with the different locks, he found that they all fitted, except the one leading to the coachman's room, in which the property mentioned in the indictment was deposited. Finding that the key would not unlock the door, a smith was sent for, and the door forced. On entering they discovered that the property was removed. Hand-bills were then published, stating the circumstances of the case, and distributed about the streets of Brighton. Amongst the places at which one of these bills was left, was the shop of a broker. He immediately recollected having purchased similar articles from a stranger, and .accordingly sent this information to Lady Burrows's agent. The coachman was then sent for, and he per fectly recollected the pillow to be the one he had left in his room. The prisoner was then apprehended. In Els defence he said that they wer' his property, and had sold them for the purpose of obtaining the means of going to London, and was perfectly innocent of the crime laid to his charge.--Gaily—sentenced to six months imprisonment in the House of Correc tion for the county. His Lordship then passed sentence of Death upon the six following prisoners : David Eylcs, fur uttering furged notes Wilslllol William fitulderfieid, and James Miller, l,r burglary ; and Muses Chandler and James Crossingham, for hurse-stcaling. Before the Hon. Mr. Justice Be yLee. Robert Weston and George Eastwood were indicted for having, in the night of the 10th of November, in the parish of Burwash, set fire to a barn, the property of John Fleury. The prosecutor resides upon a farm near the town of Burwash. On this farm there was lately standing a / barn, containing nearly all the hay and corn which had been grown by Mr. Fleury in the present year. A little before midnight, on Sunday, the 10th of No vember, it was discovered to be on fire, the flames issuing from the top, and different parts of the sides. The prosecutor, his servant, and a number of other persons from the town were soon assembled on the spot, and every possible exertion was made to extin guish the flames and save the property. Their en deavours were, however, ineffectual, except as to a load of wheat sheaves, and afew implements of farm it g in some of the out-houses. The remainder of the piorrty and premises were completely destroyed. Among the persons assembled on that occasion, were tl e two prisoners, w no assisted in putting out the fire, and saving the property. The prosecutor is one of the overseers of the parish of Burwash, and in the habit of attending the select vestries held there. The prisoners are paupers in the parish, and receive relief. The Magistrates having stronely recommended that the overseers of parishes should not grant parochial relief to paupers, who had grown up daughters at home, dressed in a manner superior to their condition in life ; and the prisoners being situated in that manner, the vestry frequently refused to relieve them, until their daughters went into the poorhouse. On Saturday, the 2d of November, Weston applied for relief to the select vestry, and it was refused to him on Lb* above grounds. The pri soner suspecting the prosecutor, Mr. Fleury, to be the cause of the refusal, became greatly enraged against him, and in a conversation which he had with a Mr. Westover, the assistant overseer, in the ensuing week, he used the most abusive language towards the charac their innocence. The Learned Judge, having summed up the evi dence, remarked to the Jury, that in a case of this description, before they could convict the prisoners of the crimes alleged to have been committed by them, there must be some positive evidence of their guilt—some act performed by them from which a decisive conclusion could be drawn. This was al case in which, if the prisoners were found guilty, there ,could be no reason for shielding them from the ut most severity of the law, and their lives would un doubtedly be forfeited ; but in the evidence adduced, there had only been a number of threats proved to have been made by them. Although this was very improper conduct, yet it did not warrant the Jury in convictting theM. It might be suspicious, but did not amount to 'certainty. The case was, however, in their hands, and they were to Mit as their consciences dictated them. The Jury acquitted the Prisoner. This being the last case, Mr. Justice BATLIT dis charged the Jury about half-past three o'clock. pregame 24.. George Cori and George Sesith were indicted for feloniously assaulting John Hawkins on the 17th of October, and taking from his person two sovereigns and other money, at Rothertield. The prosecutor, a labouring 'man, was at a public house in Lewes on the evening of the 17th of October. There he met the two prisoners, and after drinking to gether for some time, they asked him which way he was going. He answered to Tunbridge Wells. They said they were going to the same place,and they might as well go in company together. The prosecutor ac cepted their offer, and they accordingly set out. When they had arrived near Cuckfield, they met a man named Bunker with a returned post chaise. One of the prisoners proposed that they should ride. This was agreed to, and they got into the chaise. They had ridden three or four miles, when the two prisoners desired the postilion to stop, as they wanted to go out for a short time. Their desire was complied with.— When they had been absent about two minutes they returned to the chaise-door, and insisted upon hav ing the prosecutor's money. He replied, he had got none. Smith saith, " If we du not have your money, we will have your life ;" and immediately presented a pistol to his breast. Hawkins finding it was useless to resist, delivered all the money he had to them.— Just as the prisoner was shutting the door, the prose cutor, finding himself thus left penniless, asked the prisoners for some mo ley to carry him home. Smith then gave him two shillings, and the chaise pro ceeded. The prosecutor gave information of his loss to some police-officers in the next town, and a pursuit was commenced. By information which they received on the road, they were enabled to trace them to the town of Hathfield. They found them drinking toge ther in 'a public-house. They were immediately taken into custody and searched. In the pocket of Smith they found a pistol loaded with powder onlyi without any priming, and two lathing:, which were amongst the money taken from the prosecutor. Os Cord they found two pistol flints. The prisoners, in their defence, merely stated that they were innocent of the crime, and that the prose cutor had wished them to go and steal fowls, and he would sell them, and allow them a certain sum for themselves. The Jury found the prisoners Guilty—Death. William Watson and John Piggott were indicted for burglariously breaking and entering the dwelling house of Lydia Geer, on the 6th of November, and ( stealing different articles of linen drapery, at Firle. On the night of the sth of November the prosecu trix, who keeps a linen-draper's shop at Firle, retired to bed about half-past twelve o'clock, leaving the house perfectly safe. In the morning it was disco. vered that a hole had been made through the wall of the shop, and a great quantity of different articles re moved. Inquiries were immediately made in every direction, and, after a considerable time had elapsed, she was informed that the two prisoners had gone IS a public-house, called the Royal Oak, in Kent-street, Newington, on the 13th November, with two large bags. Two police officers,' suspecting from their ap pearance that the property in the bags was stoles, determined to watch them. They soon after took them into custody, and on ezamiuing the bags discovered several pieces of cotton, and other articles of that dr . scription, in them. When they searched the prisoners, they found a pair of gaiters in the hat of one, and handkerchief in the pocket of the other. Mrs. Geer pte- When they had pet the horses into the stable, they went into the house, and asked lot toma row freshment. Mr. Brown, the keeper of t h e One. having heyrd that those two men had come on horst! back to the house, were rather suspicious that tit had obtained the animals in an improper manner. therefore asked them what brought them out on the road at that early hour of the morning, as they esp. tainly could not be riding for pleasure. Chandler answered, that they were taking them to a person. named White, near Lewes. Mr. Brown affected to be satisfied with this account : but when they went to take the horses from the stable, he accompanied them. He then observed that the horses were very dirty, in is strong perspiration, and apparently very much fa tigued. This confirmed his suspicions, and he told the prisoners' he was very much afraid they had not given a true account of themselves." Chandler an swered, " that he did not care for his saspicioos." This conduct induced Mr. Brown to detain both this prisoners, and accordingly a constable was sent for, and they were taken into custody. Shortly afterwards Mr. Snoad, hearing of this occurrence at Endes Green, immediately proceeded to that place, and dis covered the gelding and the mare found in tha soners' possession to be those he had lost from bit own close. Further inquiries were made at Fruit. and it appeared that the two prisoners had been seen together, near the prosecutor's house, on the evening of the 15th, the day before the robt)ery. The prisoner Chandler, in his defence , said that's gentleman had desired him to take the horses en Lewes for him + and he was proceeding to fulfil that command when he was deteined at Fridge Green. The other Prisoner said that he had met Chandida on the road, and that the laitet had given him a lido on one of the horses. The Jury found both the Prisoners Gleiliy—Deac. , PRIVATE CORR ESI•ONDENCE. .—......—. rams, lIMCIABSA IS. 1 In my last letter I briefly mentioned the departing, of the Duke of Wellington from Paris, and alluded. to the rumour connected with it, viz.—that Mr. Can- 4' rung had sent for him home in order to prevent the i compromise of the English character. I cannot find, 1, however, that there is any other foundation for this report than the mere inference which the Dukes general conduct has given rise to. It is quite /roe .. • that his Grace has protested against war between France and Spain—quite true that he assured the Spanish Ambassador of the intention of his Govern- • ment not to encourage the views of the.war party in the French Cabinet. It is also true that he strongly dissuaded the King of France from listening to the , representations of the war party, and it is equally true that in a hundred instances in public and in private be expressed an opinion that there would be I no war. But, on the other hand, it is true that the Noble Duke, like the Apostle of old, being " all =. things unto all men," expressed to a distinguished per sonage, .1 who has repeated the very words of the Duke. that England was desirous of seeing the revolutionary spirit crushed, and that in the event of a war between France and Spain the latter country would look in vain for assistance or encouragement from England,. ' ; It will not be easily forgotten that when the Duchess 1 d'Angouleme reproached the Duke of Wellington at Court with his participation in the new views of the British Cabinet, he replied " qu'il es etoit idea". These are the very words which one of the suite re peated to me. In some time past there has been e coolness between the two Governments, which evert Sir Charles Stuart, the fast friend, as he was called, of the goal system, has partaken of, if his own assertions verbally and by letter are to be credited; but when did his Grace the Duke of Wellington up cold the dignity of England at the risk of offending the august Members of the Holy Alliance? The history of this .. I Board for the prosecution of British claims in France, IS 1 that Board which sat so long and to so little purpose, would be a pretty good thermometer to mark the • influence of the political atmosphere in which the Duke lives and has his being. Every thing considered, die absence of the Duke of Welling. on from the. French capital must be considered a; rather service- able thaq otherwise to the Spanish Patriots; for I although he could not avoid acting up to the letter of i his instructions, I declare without fear of refutation. because I have my information from pure sources, that the Ultras were by no means in despair when they had access to the Duke, and understood his " Jaren de pester." At present we are in a calm, but the elements 011 discord are not destroyed ;—fresh intrigues, fresh conspiracies against liberty are daily detected.-- Here, as well as in England, " a faction behind the 1 throne, greater than the throne itself," still talk of .. war as certain, and boast of the large sums sub i scribed by individuals for its prosecution ; but there I are moral and physicial causes against war, Some • of the Ultras have purchased experience. They would , willingly see the Deopeau Blanc floating upon every tower in Spain, and the cocarde blonehe in mil hat; but they dread the sight of the Drapers* i6OO
