t" , :: Ills Grace CHARLES, Loll. Archbishop of DUBLIN', Viscount. SOME 11. T ON . VIY LORD, WF=' the Clergy of the Dioceses of CASHEL and E MLY, having this Day met to address you on the occasion of your separation from us, really find it difficult to give expression to our feeling,s. But though, my Lord. we must regret that we are now to cease to be find. r your im mediate protedion, yet we . trust .you will believe that we cannot be indifferent to your Grace's prosperity. You have prsided over us for 2.2, years, during which period we have been repeatedly in many perilous and trying' situations. On all these occasions your readiness to hear and to counsel, your watchfulness and alacrity to succour and protect your Clergy, demand from us the most public ac knowledgments. We cannot, therefore, permit your Grace to withdraw from us without this testimony of-our gratitude. _ _ Often have } - ou, in the Irish Councils, pleaded the Cause of tile Church ; often'haveyOu stand forward to defend our Rights; and recently, in the Imperial Senate, you'havepro-' claimed is faithful at our posts, and zealouily discharging our pastoral duties. We are not so presumptuous as to ar rogate to ourselVes the merit on this head. • You, my Lord, made us reSpeelable, - by furnishing us with the means of being useful. XVithout a single instance of se- verity, but with a firm yet lenient hand,. you had Glebes established, and Churches and Glebe-housts erected for your Dioceses ; and, without the feeble aid of our testimony; the Cathedral and Choir of Cashel, and the Records of its Dio cese, exhibit proofs of the zeal with which you have regard ed the Cause ofßeligion; We cannot•conclude without ex pressing our grateful acknowledgments for the courtesy ,and . affability which We have individually, and ca all occasions, experiencedfrom your Grace. May Divine Providence favour you with long life to ex. tend to others those blessings we haveenjoyed under the wis dom of your measures, and the example of yoUr piety.

We sincerely congratulate yout Grace on your promotion W that Diocese ; but-we-as sincerely lament your departure from this--tid we reason upon the forint:r circumstance, whilst we feel upon the latter. We lose upon• the oecasion, a powerful patron, and (we hope we are not arrogant) a kind friend ; but we trust we shall never lose the grateful recol lection of services the most important, and of favours the most flattering, for we owe your Grace much, and it is with pride we acknowledge it. From your Grace we derive our • establishment as a Choir, and the enjoyment of our incomes, which (after a just com promise), you reclaimed from the parties whO possessed them as sinecures : for when your Graix cainc to this Diocese, you found a Cathedral, whose dome had never resounded to the solemn peal of the organ, nor to the sublime anthems of the immortal Handel; but your Grace's piety restored the service to its ancient poMp, and your private generosity contributed liberally to defray the expence. As individuals, we have to thank your Grace for your Steady and constant assertion of ourrespedive rights before the tribunal of public justice, and for your friendly counsel and assistance upon various_ occasions —whilst, kind to our merits and indulgent to our fa - ults; we have at all times experienced from your Grace the - politeness of a Gentleman, and the con descension of the.Yeer. - We remain, with much esteem for your personal Virtues, cul much deterence.to your exalted rank, your Grace's most obliged, most devoted humble Servants , C.

SOLLM quls DICIRL FALiUM AULIZAT LONDON, I:INUARY 18, Igo2. WE have given in our subsequent columns a de, tail of the Trial of- the rest of the Mutineers. Out of the six who were tried, five are sentenced to die, and one of them, Comajne, to receive zoo lashes ; after which the Court dissolved itself. WE yesterday received another Set of Paris Jour nals, though not of a later date than those that arrived on Sdturday; Their contents are Wholly . unimportant i excepting the sorrowful details which continue to arrive from all parts of Europe, of the• ravages Caused by the late - inundatiOns. We sin cerely hope, that these desolations will be arrested in their progress, lest the miseries of war l suc_ ceeeded by those i;:agues,.of.mankind, famine and pestilence, which never fail to march in the train of a long and destruetive war. Paris remains tranquil'; and the people of Lyyo rzr Were awaiting, with anxious expeaation, the arrival of the-FIRST .The:inhaltants of the Grisgvs have protested agaitist their inc:-,rpoLl:ion into the Helvetic Re public, and seem disposed to place themselves under the proteetion of the House of Austria, rather than to submit to conditions, by which they will be doomed to forfeit their ancient independence. In deed, the whole of the once happy Cantons of Switzerland seem to be unsettled and full of suspense, but they do not despair of the future fortunes of their Nation. They pitture to them selves, the enjoyment of better things and happier days ; and with that simplicity which is the cha raderistic of a People unpraaised in the arts of in. trigue and fraud, they consider their cause as likely . to prosper wherever the understandings of men are just and sound, and their hearts sympathetic and uncorrupted. The French Funds were at 54 franks to cents. JUST as this Paper was putting to Press, we received Paris Papers to the isth inst. They do not bring any intelligence of importance. We are, however, happy to find, that the inundations are in general subsiding. The last Letters from Lyons are dated the 7th instant. They merely contain accounts of the preparations which were making for the reception of the First Consul. The French Funds are rising. The Tiers Consolid'es are at 55 Fr. so C. LUC' EN BONAPARTE is said to lave concluded a Convention with the Court of Madrid, by which the Reigning DUKE of PARMA renounces, for ever, for himself and his heirs, all claims upon that Dutchy and its dependencies. His CATHOLIC MAJESTY guarantees this renunciation. FOUR Hamburg!, Mails now remain ( - we. His MAJESTY on Saturday took an excursion to Kew, accompanied by His Royal Highness the Dux E Of CUMBERLAND. This being the Anniversary of the birth of our most gracious QUEEN, it was observed as a gala day at Court. • On Friday the PRINCESS of WALES breakfasted with Their MAJESTIES at the Queen's House. On Saturday Capt. BROWN, charged with Dis patches from Lords fitircurNsoN and KEITH, ar rived in Town from Egypt and Malta. Mr. SHAW, one of His Majesty's messengers, left town early yesterday morning, with dispatches for his Excellency the Marquis CORNWALLIS at Amiens. Mr. DRESSINGS, Ole Messenger, arrived on Sa turday with Dispatches from Marquis CORNWAL- Li S, ar Amiens. We understand, the Master-Gcneral of the Ord nance, is about to make a new arrangement of the Engineer Corps. Yesterday morning arrived a Mail from New- York, brought by the Chesterfield Packet. MADDED; is just arrived here from Egypt, and I A pri va te Letter from Paris s a ys —" nrjor un derstand brings an account that the Grand Vizier, urdered every one which a b an d of Soldiers and a Pashaw of Cairo, invited all the Beys of Egypt to l a di G er r s an e d nt F er e ed te theat Cairo, hail a nand duringmurdered of the Beys, which produced great commotions at Cairo, and a -few thousand English marched thither to restore tranquillity." Five hundred mc.lals are to be struck in comme moration of the Ci3alpine Assembly at Lyons. Twenty-three superb horses have arrived at Bo logna, led by Spaniards. They . are said to be in tended for the KING of ETRURIA. Captain Sir CHARLES HAMILTON, of His Ma jesty's Ship Melpomene, is eleaed Member of Par liament for Dungannon, in the County of Ulster, Ireland. • THE OP ERA.---BANTI made her second appear ance on Saturday night,,and we were happy to find much recovered, although not entirely, from the ef fets of her late cold. This gave her a degree of lan guor during the First Aft, for which s h e ma d e ample amends in the Second, and the fine song-with the horn accompaniments was given with all that powerful intonation, that true and perfeft sostenuta, for which she is so eminently distinguished. The Ballets were as before—PARISOT ever the commanding goddess of the dance. The house was well filled with all that London contains of Fashion. THE Tilt ATRES.—Henry the Fourth was repeat_ ed at Drury lane Theatre on Saturday last, before a very numerous audience. KEMBLE was more than usually animated in Hotspur, and excited abundant applause. PALMER improves in his Falstaff, and, if it be not as goof as we could wish, it is better than most representations of the charaCter that have been seen for many years. The Public in general seem to like it, and therefore the Aaor may con tent himself. COVENT GARDEN.—The new Tragedy of Al fonso was represented again at this Theatre on Saturday. It has undergone such curtailments that it was near an hour and a half shorter in the per formance. The pruning knife might still he em. ployed on it with great advantage to the. Piece and satisfaCtion to the Public. We have nothing to add to the account we have already given of it, unless, in deed, we were to indulge ourselves in the unpleasant office of dwelling upon its demerits. The Performers deserve great praise, particularly as some of them are placed in situations for which they are wholly unfit. The Piece is brought forward with liberal splendour. • The contest for the Borough of Morpeth is going forwards with the greatest spirit. Lord CARLISLE, who has hitherto been accustomed to return two Members for that place, meets with a powerful opponent in Mr. ORD of Fenham, who is just come into possess . ion of one of the largest estates in the North of England. Mr. ORD has been accompanied in his canvass by all the Gentlemen of fortune and consequence in the County, and little doubt seems o be entertained of his success. 0 D FOR THE NEW YEAR, riaz BY HENRY JAMES PYE, ESQ. POET LAIIKEKri Lo, from BEL LON A'S crimson car At length the panting Steeds unbound, At length the thunder of the War In festive shouts of Peace is drown'd: Yet as around her IVIoN AR C hrow, Bit.l TANNIA twines the Olive bough, Bold as her Eagle-eye% cast On hours of recent Tempest past : Thro' the rude Wave and adverse Gale, When free she spread her dariiig Sail, Immortal Glory's radiant form, Her guiding Load-star thro' the Storm ; Directed by whose golden ray, Thro' Rocks and Shoals she kept her steady way ; " My Sons," she cries, " can Honour's Guerdc.;zl claim, " my Parent Worth, unstain'd their So v gitAIC" It lame !" At at 0 N tho' oft by dread alarms, Thy native Valour has been tried, Ne'er did the lustre of thy Arms Shine forth with more refulgent pride Than when, while Europe's Sons ilismay'd, Shrunk recreant from thy mighty aid ; Alone, tuafriended, firm you stood, A barrier 'gainst the foaming flood,--- 2 When mild and soft the silken breeze Blows gently o'er the r;pling seas ; The Pinnace then may lightly sweep With painted oar the halcyon deep: But w4en the howling Whirlwinds rise, When mountain Billows threat the Skies ; With ribs of Oak the Bark must brave, The inroad of the furious Wave ; The hardy Crew must to the raging Wind Oppose the sinewy Arm, the unconquerable Mind. In every Clime where Ocean roars, High tho' thy Naval Banners flew ; From wherotby Hyperborean Shores, The frozel Gale ungenial blew, To sultry Lands that Indian surges lave, Atlantic Isles and fans'd Canopus' wave; Tho' from insulted Egypt's Coast Thy Armies swept the Vidor Host, From veteran bands where British Valour wofl The lofty walls of Ammon's god-li4 Son 3 Useless the danger and the toil, To free each self-devotod soil, Auiiliar Legions from thy side Recede, to swell the Gallic Conqueror's pride While on Marengo's fatal Plain, Faithful to Fionour'4 tie, brave Austria bleeds in 11411, Not fir'd by fierce Ambition's flame, Did ALBION'S MONARCH urge his Car Impetuous thro' the bleeding Ranks of War, To succour and protel his noble: Al4l.

But still on ev'ry Stage this law is found, Pouf Tragedy, confin'd to one dull round, Sees Comedy invade her rights unchidden s Whilst all reprisals are to her forbidden ; For tears of times become Thalia's eyes, But from a single smile her buskin'd sister dies I.

And own, in all their lives they ne'er have seen Verdure so bright as that of Gretna Green ! But my last task, I fear, will hardest prove — To justify my Lover, not my Love— Cesario had his faults, and many too, Nay some were crimes, and crimes of blackest hue.
