TM. LONDON JOURNALS. DAll.,i` Extracts from the Morning Papers, April 25. iN EW TIMM] Tit the House o Lords last night Lord 'Ellen borough moved an Address expressive of disap probation of the course pursued by Ministers in their negociations with France. After a long debate the motion was negatived by a majority of 142 to 48.--1 n the llouse of Commons Lord John Russell's motion in favour of what is called a Reform in Parliament was lost by a majority 169- of ISO to The Paris Journals of Tuesday arrived last eight. They contain no more recent intelligence from the Armies than has been already received, and acid no important facts to those already published. The report of the arrest of the Spanish Chief, the Trappist, is contradicted. in letters from Vittoria, it is said that General Molitor was to proceed to Saragossa, leaving Pampeluna blockaded. The Duke of Reggio was going to Burgos, while the Commander-in- Chief remained at Vittoria.—(/bid.) [MORNING CHRONICLE.] It will be seen from our Report of the pro ceedings in the House of Commons, last night, that the Inquiry into the conduct of the High Sheriff of Dublin, which was to have commenced this day, is postponed to this day se'nnight.- 7 Open war bus been declared by the Grenvilles against Mr. Canning. The Courier began last night to attack that Statesman, and had a fling at his '' misplaced envy of those who could in dulge in their liberal predilections unrestrained by the responsibilities of Office." Ills Grace of Buckingham inveighed against him in pretty nearly the sit me terms. Indeed, so great is the similarity between the Duke anti the Journalist, one would almost -suppose the former had fur nished the latter with the heads of his intended speech. This will be thought indicative of a breaking up. . . . A House divided against itself cannot stand [;vfoaxixe , yosT.] We have beard of certain politicians who affec to disapprove of the policy of this country with respect to the contest between France and Spain, because it appears to be founded in some , degree upon a confidence in the sincerity of French professions, and a belief that her ultimate views are free from the spirit of encroachment and the lust of dominion, We are as far as possible from thinking that any declarations of the French Government in relation to this subject are entitled to implicit credit ; we deem the men who now compose it fully capable of pursuing the most unprincipled ends by the, basest means. tt is with reference to practical conse quences, and to these only, that the policy and the language—the belief or the unbelief—the credulitv or the suspicion of Governments., are to be estimated, •Vbe intentions of France 111n11 lie as ambitious, at the present moment, as any ever formed at the Tuileries; whilst Louis si V. dreamed of Universal Empire, or'Na poleon, not content that his iron rod ex. tended already to the two extremities of Etr. rope, was running mad for Asiatic conquest — and still we contend, in all the other circum stances of the moment, that neutrality, with the language and hearing hich befit neutrality, is the immediate interest and duty of the British Govern ment. The first developemenf of French ambi tion, if her arms should triumph in the Penin sula, would probably be the attempt to establish such a Government in Spain as would be es sentially and invariably under the influence of French Councils. It is here the mask will fall off, if the prevalent opinion that tlie professions of France are deceptive is a correct one. And let Orme who impugn the wisdom of 13ritish statesmen examine what disadvantages have been incurred to England or to Europe, what increased means or facilities of success will have accrued to France, jay the neutrality of England continued up to the very moment of this exposure ? , These are ques tions not , to be answered as if France and Eng land were two rival Powers, contending for the dominion of the world, and so far superior, to all other nations, as to be indifferent to the senti ments, the influence, or the aid of any ; they are not to be answered without recurring to the. general system of European politics, and to the effect which the undisguised projects of France could not Nil to produce upon thee Councils o r other. States. Lord John Russell's Motion for n Reforrr Parliament was last night negatived by a majo rity of one hundred and eleven—l 69 voting for the motion, and 280 against it. The arguments, or rather assumptions., put forward against it, had'' nothing new ; they were hacknied and oft-re - futed ; the very division on this important ques-. tion, composed us it was, speaks overpoweringly the state of that House. The question was ad mirably brought forward by the highly-informed Nobleman who proposed it—his speeches placing it on purely constitutional grounds ; and the in crease and advance of wealth and public instruc tion have done much to support reform, and gain it many friends. Thus the !louse has negatived, by a majority of 280, many of them well-known placemen end pensioners, this great question, called for by the united voices of almost every county in England ; it has been again rejected ; in defiance of a host of petitions, all of which re probated the present composition of that House, and the measures that flowed front it ; and among the rest, the great petition, presented a night or two since, by Lord Milton, from the county of York, and signed by no less than 17,000 names, who were all known and respectable freeholders. A ppeals like these are to be confuted and got rid of by the rhetoric and sophistry of Mr. Canning, and one or two more upon the Treasury Benches! We are not advocates of any wild or visionary plans of Reform ; what we wish to see is, the original Constitution of Parliament reverted to. We desire to see Parliaments triennial; they were so, before a Bill was introduced into the Upper House, under the sears of Jacobinism to extend their duration to seven years. We hope yet also to see the right of suffrage extend ed to all householders and payers of taxes. This would include the whole middle portion of the community—the mast honest and independent in every state ; men► too intelligent to be de ceived, and too independent, in general, to barter or prostitute their suffrages. The present state of the representation in England is a mon strous anomaly. That House notoriously does not represent the people,nor will corrupt or interested majorities persuade the nation at large to the contrary. This is one, of those questions which, from the force of feeling without doors, must yet succeed. No set of men, however powerful, can sit and hold their places in perpetuity, against the great mass of the People. The majority on the question is diminishing every year. Lord John Russell's good sense and temperance have been of the most important service to it ; and though it may be put aside fora while by in terested majorities, we have no doubt that this great Constitutionnal Question must, and will ' yet prevail. It is alike essential to the welfare of the country, and to the happiness, prosperity / and fair protection of the people. [THE T wrEs.] An Evening Paper, which is understood to be in the pay of the Ultra and more stupid part of the British Ministry, has presented to public no tice a proof of the disunion of Ministers, by a direct attack.upon Mr. Canning. it abuses him for the " liberal" (printing that word in italics)—for the liberal sentiments which he, 66 unrestrained by the responsibilities of office," professed on presenting the Papers relating to the Ve ronese Negociations to the House of Commons. — It contrasts his speech, injuriously for the speaker, with the more guarded explanations of Lord Liverpool, on the same occasion and finally—for though that is the first charge in the 'anticlimax, it is the consummation of his official indiscretions—it charges Wm with insulting the French Government, adding this notable and very sensible apophthegm on the sub ject—" That nations, like individuals, will " sooner forgive injuries than insults. There is " a sense of magnanimity in the one ; but in the cc other, only a galling consciousness of unre. " sented indignities, which is a rankling wound 46 that never heals."' Rochefoucault, La Gruyere, and even the author of the Book of Proverbs, must sink into obscurity before the writer of such a morceau as this! [MORNING lIERALO.I The Bill now pending in Parliament for con solidating the several register, laws, contemplates an alteration in the mode of ascertaining the tonnage of ships. It has hitherto been the practice to consider the length and breadth only of the vessel, as the basis for calculation, with out reference to the depth ; thus the register tonnage had little relation to the actual capacity of the vessel. To remedy this, the length from the after part of the ste►n to, the fore part of the stern post is to be taken on deck. The length is then to be divided into four equal parts, and the depth take►i at the three points of division, from the under surface of the deck to the upper surface of the ceiling near the kel son. The middle depth is to be divided, anti the breadth takeU at the half depth. The other two depths are to be divided into four parts, and the breadth to be also taken at the two quarters of each. The five breadths thus ascertained are to be added together, and multiplied by the half sum of the two depths - , at the quarter lengths, and that by the length, and the product to be divided by 560 for tonnage. One of the sections of the Bill provides for the mortgaging of vessels without the ownership being affected by the transfer required by the existing and contem plated laws. 11AMBURGII - AND FLANDERS MAILS. Sen.Es, MAncn 17.—We have been living in the greatest anxiety ever since the 12th, when a Tartar brought news to the Hey that the Greeks had landed in six different places in the Gulf of Salonichi. The Bey immediately caused the Archbishop and all the Primates to be arrested; and signified to them that if the villages , should revolt their heads should answer for it. The Archbishop, in mortal fear, assured him that he could answer for the inhabitants of Seres, but not for the villages on the sea coast. This did not avail him. Since the.n, however, Christian . . hostages have: :been taken from the adjacent villages and brought hither. The fermentation among the Turks increases, nd they have already proceeded• to acts of violence, which it• is, true are directed against the Greeks, but by a strange chance have fallen on the Turks alone. On the 14th of this month many armed , Turks entered the Bazaar carranhazy, with the intention - of plundering, but in their blind fury they began at a corner where there were only Turkiiii traders from Bosnia and Albania, who endeavoured to defend their property. A sanguinary conflict took place between the Turks, during which the Christians had time to convey their goods to a place of securit3,, anti to put themselves under the protection of the Halonks, who hastened to the spot. Since this affair all trade is at a stand, and great: uneasiness prevails. Yesterday 1500 Greeks were.ordered to work ,at fortifications in the oqighbourhood. Fears are entertained for Salonica if the Greeks advance from Cassandra, Bozzaris, it is sail, being already at Mezzooa. FROM' MAINE, APRIL 13.—0 n the 6th of this month, 44 whole families belonging to AlPrent places in the Ball ick oil. Pforzheim, belangtng to the' Baron of Oem mingen &eine*, solemnly renounced - the Roman Catholic re. ligion, and, professed the Lutheran. Among them is the Baron himielf, and the'Rev. .Il:lleunlioser, formerly Catholic Cler. gyman , of Aluhlhartsen. 13 it tisalms, 'Arm r. 19.--Count Langeron, Gene ral in the service of the Emperor of Russia, arrived here yesterday from Paris. Yesterday the LORD MAYOR held a Word. mote in the Hall of Christ's Hospital, at three o'clock, for the election of an Alderman of the Ward of Farringdon Within, in the-room of the late T. S*llll, Esq., when .101,141 CaiIWPF II , Escl9 the worthy Deputy of the Wardi was unanimously elected. FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

This Ball, had the Court been held. would have been the' most splendid given since the revival of these celebrated Fetes. As it was, many came in their full dress costume, presenting as it were a perfect blaze of brilliants. On the whole there were not less than 400 persons. ROYAL ACADEMY OF MUSIC. The FICSI Concert for the benefit of this Institutien took place last night at the KING'S THEATRE. As the Chief Performers, vocal and instrumental, assisted on the occasion, a fine musical feast might naturally be expected, and accordingly the audience were very nutnerous as well as highly respectable. The entertainment consisted of three parts. The first comprised selections from Dr. CILOTCII'S Oratorio, entitled Pa ksline, a work recommended by excellent music as well as by admirable poetry, the produ ction of the Reverend REGINALD lleuEn. Selections from celebrated airs, duets, and cho russes, constituted the second and third parts. — With such an assemblage of talents to support the Concert, it is no wonder that the audience remained till a late hour. We had the sanction of the ablest Professors in entering our Protest against this Institution, us not so much calcu lated to improve the state of Music in this country as to augment the number of its votaries. The Profession is already over-stocked, and therefore an Institution intended to increase its number must' only tend to promote mendi city.—We have innumerable native Professors, and all foreign musicians of real talents are con stantly, flocking to this country. There is no want of Teachers, vocal and instrumental, of every description, many of whom support themselves and their families with difficulty. Why then should the number be augmented ? The Academy of Music was no doubt founded on the most laudable motives, but the design was specious rather than solid. For purposes of charity we have already the Musical Fund, the New Musical Fund, the Choral Fund, and other benevolent Eatablishments ; and if contributions are given to the new Institutions it must lessen proportionably those to the others. What, then, is the conse. cittent advantage ?—none----while the consequent -mischief is obvious. Suppose new Institutions should be proposed to bring forward a new tribe of Painters, while we have so many, and, among theM, many who are starving, though there are benevolent Societies for supporting decayed r4embers. Suppose also that new THEATRICAL UNDS were to take place in the Metro polis, what could be expected but that a swarm of Tom and Jerry Actors would immediately start into being, and Thespian carts appear at the corner of every street. In no point of view can THE ACADEMY or Music be necessary, in every point of view it must be injurious, and we are fully warranted in giving this opinion by those who are best qualified to decide upon the subject.—We heartily, a pprove of the motives of the Founders and Beneftwtors, but we doubt not that in the end they will find that they have been misled by visionary taste and fallacious ,umanity. WINDSOR, APRIL IS MAJESTY'S Birth day was ushered in with the ringing of the church hells. At twelve o'clock the Royal Fusileers, in their new clothing, marched from the Foot Barracks to the Long Walk, where they formed a line and tit'ed a feu-de -joie three times, and each time gave three cheers, with " God save the King." In the evening his MAJESTY'S trades: people and the head inns were all very bril liantly illufiiinated. Dinners were given at the White Hart and at the Swan Inns on the occa sion. This being the day appointed for celebrating the Birth-day of our most gracious Sovereign, the same has been observed in this city with the usual demonstrations of joy. Flags were sus pended from the Guildhall, and from the towers of different Churches, and the Cathedral and Pa rochial bells have rung merrily on the occasion.— (Exeter Flying Post, April 23.) We hear that Sir It. Wit,sox, NecomPlinied by a son of Lord FRSILINE, left town on Wednes day evening, for Falmouth, with the intention of embarking for Vigo, to join the Spanish Army.— (Morning Paper.) Ex EctErioiv.— Yesterday morning Edward Hales, under 18 years of age, who was convicted nt the late Surrey Assizes for a rape, underwent the awful sentence of the law at Horsemonger lane Gaol. The unfortunate youth was ordered, for execution on Monday, but in consequence of a communication from Mr. Bay field, of Guy's Hos p W ital, F to Mr. Baron Graham, a reprive was gran te d till ednesday,when it was extended to riday, but subsequently the order was countermanded,and mostunexpectedly the warrant was received from the Secretary of State for his execution, it appearing there were no circumstances of a mitigating na 7 tune. The miserable boy was attended by the Rev. Mr. MANN from his cell to the roof of the prison, who endeavoured to impress on his mind the awful account he had to give in a short time at " the High Tribunal.". The spiritual advice, however, seemed to have very little effect upon him ; and when' on the scaffold, he.said to the executioner," Be quick, let me go as fast as you can." Every thing being ready, soon after eight o'clock the drop fell, and the sulferer Was launch ed into eternit7, CATHOLIC CLAIMS. A PETITION of the Rev. Sir Ilmtcounr LEES, Bart., of Black Rock, County of Dublin, was presented and read in the House of Commons on the 17th inst., setting forth, That the Petitioner having observed with the deepest con• cern and alarm, that a Bill is to .be immediately introduced into 'the House, having for its object the admission of Roman Catholics into the Legislature of this free and tolerant empire, has presumed to submit to the House that this measure is in direct violation of one of the most fundamental principles of Government established at the Revolution, namely, the exclu sion of a sect professing spiritual, and in many most important concerns temporal obedience to a foreign potentate, from both Houses of Parliament, as also from various offices of high trust anti political power, essentially controlling, by the necessary influence attached to their jurisdiction, the most vital interests of the established Church; that the Roman Catholic Religion is by its constitution, its doctrines, canons, and general coun cils, intolerant and persecuting, avowedly hostile, by the de claration of its present visible head to every other religious establishment professed or acknowledged by the Christians, and consequently at direct variance with every other system of ecclesiastical freedom of divine worship ; that the annals of all former ages, and particularly the passing events of the present alarming times, most incontestibly prove, that the Church of Rome is equally unfavourable to the civil liberties of the sub. ject, whilst the late Rebellions, whenn considered with the exclusively Popish conspiracy, at this moment maturing to per fection in Ireland, will further establish beyond all possibility of doubt in every reflecting and well-informed mind, that the eventual object of the Court of Rome is, through the massacre of the Irish Protestants, as confirmed by the testimony of con victed traitors at several trials, to overturn the Government of this Country ; anti having thrown off the yoke of England, to consummate the mysterious and sanguinary machinations of the Jesuits, by the final re-establishment of Popery in Ireland ; that there is not the slightest cause for believing that the fundamental principles of the Popish Creed have been or ever can be ameliorated, the highest authorities, both lay and ecclesiastical, and amongst the latter, particularly Doctors Troy and Milner, having publicly declared and pro mulgated that the religious principles of the_Roman Catholics,. being unchanged and unchangeable, are applicable at all times, and that the ecclesiastical jurisdiction assumed by the Kings of England is in its origin, and still continues to be, &profane. asap. Fawn, whilst Mr. Francis Plowden has explicitly acknow. ledged, that if any one says, or pretends to insinuate, that modern Roman Catholics Who have been the late objects of the bounty of Parliament differ iri one iota from their ancestors, he 'either deceives himself, or wishes to deceive others, temper t'adent being not more emphatically descriptive of the religion, than of their jurisprudence • that the three great leading prin. eiples of the Roman Catholikhurzh; thus dogmatically declared di be unchanged and unchangeable, being the Infallibility of. the Pope, exclusive salvation, and that most dangerous of all doe. trine; that all Roman Catholics are bound under penalty of eternal damnation to' believe 'as the Church ordains, at once place the entire of the. Roman Catholic population of Ireland under the direct spiritual and temporal controul and manage ment of the Popish Priesthood, who are all sworn, by a pre vious oath of fidelity to the Pope, to extend, enlarge, and pro mote the interests and ascendancy of the Church of Rome, whenever they have the power to do so ; that the present as well as former insurrections, which have so frequently taken place in this unfortunate country, must on reflection convince the House that every concession made to Romanists, every degree of political encouragement that can be extended.to them, short of an unqualified surrender of our Constitution, our civil li berths, our religion, and eventually a Protestant throne, can never for one moment weigh against the paramount influence and papal engagements of a bigotted and intolerable hier archy,, who, not satisfied with publicly libelling the pious and enlightened Prelates of the Reformed Church, denying the validity of their ordinination, their episcopal succession, and even their right to the temporalities, have lately, for the first time since the Popish Parliament of James the Second, reassumed the dangerous power then so successfully employed of influencing openly at the hustings the vines of Popish freeholders, and under the threatened horrors of an excom. munication, of dividing the formerly submiesive tenant from his Protestant landlord and thus most impiously have established upreeedent, which if not immediately checked by those Legislative Measures for re-modelling the elective franchise so frequentlypointed out by the Petitioner, will in. vitably constitute; the Popish Priets, anti not the Sheriff's, the returning officers at all future elections in Ireland, and will, if possible, tend still farther to disseminate the seeds of disunion,' disobedience, and rebellion throughout' every County inlre land, at least once in seven years, and this even without the aid of Roman Catholic emancipation to accelerate the treason are r o n u aci s rsi et convinced ooelni pos sessed e vrla. persecuting nt i c o e I d o s and t t i civil wntihol eriwhilst p intolerant; liberty, the spiritual i t uals6 n a saut n inb d a djl consequence, doctrines na es dissenters foa foreign itgne that his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects enjoy every degree in ects of reli gi ous generallyla e tt u e ti r t ) power can have no just cause for complaint, much less for per. petual irritation, particularly since their supreme head has au daciously declared even within the last seven years, as in the case of the . Belgic Bishops, that no Roman Catholic can take an oath of fidelity to any' Constitution which tolerates all reli. gious sects ; that the Petitioner wishes to remind the llouse, that the same holy and tolerant Pastor had only eight years previous to the fulminating of this most treasonable injunction, promulgated through a circular letter addressed to his Cardi. nals,. that he had rejected an article prOposed even by Napo leon litionaparte, (to .admit of the free exercise of all religious forms of worship in France, because such was contrary to the Canons, to the Councils, the Catholic Religion, and to the van. quillity of human life ; that the same piousittlocate for civil and religious liberty addressed a Bull to the Primate of Poland in 1816, in which his Holiness denominated the Bible Socie. ties a pestilence and a defilement of the faith ; and, as the Pee titioner supposes, for the purpose of preventing jealousy on the part of his most faithful and. devoted subjects in Ireland, his orthodox college of the de propaganda fide at lime forwarded a shadier bull into that country, dated so late as September 1819, addressed to his Titular Bishops, containing the same conciliatory sentiments, the immediate consequence of' which was general insurrection in the Popish provinces of Munster and Connaught ; that the saMe most Christian Potentate had previously evinced his determination never to re. Bounce his authority over foreign . powers, by publibly censuring his alearly beloved Son in Christ, Louis the Eighteenth, for countenancing heretics, and finally, to leave not a shadow of doubt upon the deluded consciences of the most strenuous Protestant advocates for the advancement of Popery in Ireland, his Holiness consummated his Christian labours in the service of the reformed Churches of England, and this country, by the sweeping declaration, under the auspieces of theniost holy Inquisition which he had also re-established, that he.regarded every in dulgence to Protestants as an alliance between Christ anti Belial, light and darkness, truth anti error, sincere piety and impiety ; that the conduct o f the Melt Titu lar Prelat has been in strict conformity with those Papal decla rations, as they have openly patronized the most blasphemous and treasonable publications, particularly Pastorini's History of the Christian Church, Ward's Errata of the Protestant Bible, and his controversy of ordination, also the impious notes to the Itheiniali Testament, all denouncing the Established Church as a novelty, and prophecying the total extermination of the ' Protestants as .being decreed by Almighty God to take place in the year 1825, the name of the Popish Bishop of Cork being publicly prefixed to the list of subscribers to Pastorini's work of murder and desolation, printed, paid for, anti circulated in thousands throughout all parts of the South, and even the North of Ireland, within the last twelve months; that from these re. cent and unanswerable facts, the Petitioner presumes to believe, that a demonstrative proof is at length afforded, even to the most deluded advocates for Roman Catholics advancement, of the bigotted estimetion in which this discontented and clamor ous body of sectarians is likely to consider the rights and vital interests of the Established Church of Ireland, in the event of their ever being admitted into the Imperial Parliament, where they would have the power to legislate for that Church whirl they' had previously sworn to undermine and destroy ; or it offices of high trust anti confidence, by virtue of which offices they would assume a right, not onlyof recommending, but in many cases of virtually appointing, the Prelates of the Pro testant Church, whets at the same time they refuse with menace, and even insult, to admit the least interference on the part of the Crown of England with the nomination of their own titular Doctors • that the Petitioner , . now in the awful presence of his doll, most solemnly implores the House, whose dignity and character are dearer to him than his blood, to reflect upon the following important fact be fore .it may. be too late for remedy or revision ; that the pre sent Pope of Rome issued a Bull, dated so late as August 1814, addreseed to the Titular Prelates in • Ireland, as well as in all the Ecclesiastical States, for the .restoration of the dangerous and 'secret order of Jesuits; that intriguing society having pnr chaseti,an estate in the county of Kildare, and an extensive mansion in the spring of the game year, the property of the late Wogan Browne, Esquire, and having actually paid down 16,0001. for the estate on which they have founded a college with several Jesuit professors, the establishment lately contain ing nearly four hundred Graduates ; that the same order has within the last seven years founded another establishment at Clondalkin, within four miles of the city of Dublin, where they educate their active travelling emissaries in all kinds of handy craft trades, whom, when properly instructed, they send out through the empire, under the pretend of looking for field work, or employment at their respective trades, hut in reality for the purpose of corrupting the minds, and organizing into a treasonable association, the entire body of the lower order of Papists in that country, as well as in nengland, in which revo lutionary object they are most powerfully assisted by the insi dious and unremitting efforts of that numerous society ofJe suits, established since the early part of the present ce nts of y, at Stony Hurst , in Lancashire ; the framers and foment all those insurrectionary unions which have endangered the tran quillity of the Northern Counties in En g land, and the great for manufacturing towns of Scotland in which Popery prevails several years past ; that at the accession of our late pious, af flicted, and ever to be lamented Protestant Monarch George the Third, the father of his faithful subjects, the venerated protec tor of the Church of England, as by law•established, the t o e d number of Papists in Great Britain did not amount to 30,000 ; that at the termination of the last century their number had in creased to 69,376, i. e. had rather more than doubled in 36 years, but the Petitioner has no hesitation in assuring the House, that since the establishment of the Jesuits, and their va rious and dispersed agents, the total number of Pap ists through out Great Britain alone falls little short, if it does not exceed 600,000 at the present hour ; whilst their colleges, schools, and junior seminaries have multiplied from three to sixty-two, and their chapels, c onvents, and nunneries, from scarcely twenty to upwards of eight hundred, as will be ascertained, if an enumeration shall be ordered, which the petitioner hopes may be done by Parliament ; that immediately subsequent to the Establishment of the Secret Society of papal agents in this' country, under a bull issued by the present Pope, a murderoult and revolutionary organization of the great body of the Irish Papists, if not in co-operation, at least with the necessary con nivance of the titular hierarchy and priesthood, was framed, the object of this treasonable union being, as acknowledged h e Y th e King's Attorney-General last November, the separation ot Ire land entirely from the Government of England, the massacre of the conspiracy, the Protestants, and the overthrow of the Established Church ; that petitioner, in the year 1819, endeavoured, but ineffectually,• to draw the attention of the . Irish Government to the nature of of the following year, after numerous anonymou s letters, threat- • its objects, and its principles; that in the Spring ening destructton to his life and p ro p erty . her been received and despised, the petitioner detected in the dead hour of night, an accredited Ribbon agent tampering with hie servants to pre vail on them to admit a body of assaseins int o his house, for the purpose of murdering himself and his wife, which agent peti tioner in a personal encounter, desper atel y wounded ; that 6 few nights after this attempt, petitioner's house was basely set on fire by cowardly ruffians, and his four infant children, with several attendants nearly burnt to death in their berg, or tive petitioner had ' scorned to compromis e his principles, or . to sacrifice the vital interests of his venerated Sovereign and the British Constitution on the polluted altar of Popish bigotrYa l T Jesuit denunciation ; that a conspiracy was shortly, aftcrwara! entered into by several Ribbon-men to murder Petitioner, and also one of the most active Mws .
