WI I P re? bee° e• J ' be 1 1 to HONEST JOHN—You are, no doubt, on the tip toe of 'expectation, breathless with anxiety, and burni ng , with curiosity, for the opening of the Grand National Arena of the Political Gladiators, the speechifying liatterfeltos, who, whether as IVltigs ar Whig-Radicals, as Radicals or Radical Whigs, are now puffing out their cheeks to try their trumpets, or bellowing forth, '' Walk in, Ladies and Gemtnen—only a penny a-piece—here s ee are, all alive and stuffed with straw—the t rampoline tricks are just a-going to begin, and there is plenty of room !" But, if there is plenty of room on one side of the House, the clamour will not be less noisy ; and as your son Jack says, " there will be longer yarns drawn" to make up for the deficiency. It is true 101 l will have much of the old bill of fare over again —the twice laid—the cranzbe repetita—the bubble and squeak of the colt! Rump, instead of the smoking hot round of old English fare ; but "ell as you like good fare, or well as you like to V), you don't like to be taken to the fair. I wish therefore to put you on your guard against the .Juggle which will not fail to be played off against - '2° ll , until you shall scarcely .know whether your . I swo heart is upon your own shoulders. As for the usual attack upon the PRINCE RE titENT'S, or the Ministers' Speech, as it is cOnye -Itiently taken to be, that, you know, JonNNy, is t° apposition what the long roll is to a regiment a bout to march ; it prepares them to fall into the tsoks, and they may then march out, if they Please, but I trust you have now no great IViSII 1 ° see them march in ! Yet they, doubtless, have some hopes even as to that imuceuvre—one hope at least they have, that is, a forlorn hope ; but let them batter as they will, 1 trust that in the lines of coinmunication between you and the old friends who have stuck, fuithfullt by you in all a'ssaults, even when your professed friends advised You at once to bout the chamade and lay down Four arms ingloriously, I trust, JOHNNY, that no breach will exist large enough for any thing but a /tar to creep through. Let us now, JOHNNY, suppose them in their ranks—a motley groove, for they will all hang to gether at the beginning of the Session, whatever they may do towards the close. If I wished to sketch a prophetic picture of the band—itti, I had almost wri,tten—but I mean tli'e band of Patriots— Verily I could not select a more appropriate prog tostication than the account of the last Finsbury Illeeting in their own Gazette, entoneraling mud 14sPattereil, half-shod Reformers, " with open . tillooth swallowing a Cobler's news ;" though little 'disposed to the same operation in regard to the 'L l oetor's gallypots—or 1 might marshal them in the style of the Bat badian ILlilitia Serjeant—" All You who hub shocaod rocking, tan in front ! all you l aho bah shoe and no tocking, tan in centre !! all You who hob no shoe, no tucking, tan in rear!!! itlearree t" • lint all this is in bad taste, and requires Re- Arm—ah ! there's the rub ! Why, JOHNNY, the Chronicle boasted of time famous York Meeting, *here the Whigs were all assembled (without l'ower, however, to enforce their requests for a h ealing), that when the subject of REFORM WAS 4"ellyted to be introduced by the Radicals, they * ° , 11(1 not permit it to be entered upon. Indeed! and why ? Are they afraid the Radicals will carry "ay all their stack in trade ? or do they look 4 Pon Reform as the Irishman's snipe, which he Often fired at but never hit, intending it should last him for the winter ? Do they wish to keep it f or a stock-piece, or do they calculate, as last Ses ai"ne when, clamorous for a Reform of the Scot tish Burghs, they still resisted any thing which eutdd touch upon the close English Boroughs.— tell you a secret, JonNNi*—the Whigs know that the Reform which they have so long talked a hoot would be the ruin of their Party. They are • c i o nseintts, - not with s tandi n g their boasts, that they have lost th e popular hold, and that they worth) "e trod ruder foot by the Radicals, should a t ,,haoge take place ; and therefore the Aristocratic j uu roughs are the only political anchors they have t4t lo hold by. You may therefore hear a little grumbling about "torto— a little threatened engnity about LOPEZ atttl B‘eaNN—and a few lor.g sreches abut I , ll e Bu rg h s nort h o f Twevd ; but the first grand di sh served up in the political charger, though no -1 ) "( 1 Y now cares - tv,o-periee about it, will be a lendont to Helton's daughter, a raw•head and , 4 " , 1y-bottes from Manchester, with anxious at -1":"I'ls to bt lug ill HUNT, HARMER, Mill PEARSON, wi, "Lrot v b eal t h e Sp ea k er an d l a ugh at his big • lust a s those worthies have insulted almost try Court of Justice in the Realm.

Mr. EDITOR—I spi red by the perusal of your ADDRESS to ERIN, I have ventured to embody my thoughts in a poetical shape, which, if you think worthy of public perusal, I commit to your care. Differing as I do with my absent friend on many important subjects, I cannot bestow that unqualified praise which I allow that his talents ikud,attainments deserve, and which from many of his friends they receive. His ardency of cha racter may have led him into errors which his cooler reflection may condemn ; but while those errors are unacknowledged, neither the tongue, 110 r t he pen of a true friend, should pass them over in silence. Every liberal heart must how ever unite with me in deploring that a noble minded man should be injured through misplaced confidence, and reliance on the recommendation of those against whom he should have been by prudence legally secured. November 19. HIBERNICUS. LINES TO T- M-, ESQ. To sweet Melody's child these few lines are address'd, The Lyrical Bard, in whose verse is express'd All the genius and ardour of patriot song, While fair Honesty's pride in thy bosom burns strong, And to whom the delights of refinement belong ; By base treach'ry condewn'd now an exile to roam, Far far from thy country, thy children, and home. Though we grieve that thy talents were ever display') Iu perFonalsatire, or ft irolity's trade; That the darts of thy wrath, wined with venom, hare flown,} And avenging_ thy ft iend, have assaulted the Throne; Still thy talents we prize, and thy brilliancy own ; We admire, with delight, thy soft national lays, And thy " WAR. AGAINST BABYLON," raptur'd, we praise. May the birth-ground of Vtrtott, thy genius inspire With Lief us's truth, but with pen dipt in fire; CORIOLANUS'S deeds, and his death to relate, The chaste Scipio's courage, defending the State, Bold MARIUs's talents, and PomPEy's sad fate, Or the glories of CiESAR in Poesy's page.. Or the splendour and fame of AUG USTUS'S age. May the genial warmth of fair Italy's clime, Which gave birth to those Poets, who triumph o'er Time, Aazusru, and TAsso, and DANTE sublime, JJJ Inflame thee, ERIN'S Bard, pith Truth's pride to rehearse, In thy language so glowing, thy spirited verse, All the glories of Venice, the Lord of the sea, Of FlOrenee's Dukes, and their fam'd Chivalry. Or the Mt:Dices wealth, which for ages had flow'd Aiid was nobly on Science and Painting btstow'd— What a field for a soul, or a spirit like thine, Thus in verses het oie transcendant to shine, And prove you're the favourite Child of the Nine— May you quickly return our PENATES to bless, And may Fortune give all you deserve to possess. THE To EA FRES. DAURY-LANE.—The ragedy of Brutus, which Wal so popular last season at this Theatre, was represented last night. Mr. KRAN, of course, was the hero of the piece, and it is certainly one of his best performances. lie was much applaud ed. A new Actor assum e d the part of Titus. His name is said to be Muoe. His acting certainly indicated more ease and self-possession than could be expected from a mere novice. His figure is good, anti he displayed feelings and spirit, that promise very faVourably, when he can better adapt his voice to the area of this large Theatre. He was well received. COVENT-GARDEN —A piece of two acts, trans lated from the French, was last night brought forward at this Theatre. The following is an outline of, the Plot : The favourite of Sianislons, King of Poland, has been di rected by his Royal Master, to represent his person, and as sume his rank in a distant frontier town, while he repairs incog. to Warsaw. The pretended King (CHAatEs KENIBLE), in the enjoyment of his temporary sovereignty, amuses him self with creating an interested country Lord (Linos) Trea surer of the Kingdom, and finding that he is near obtaining the hand of a neighbouring Baron's daughter, in opposition to the love of his own nephew and the wishes of the lady, he works upon his avarice by the promise of great advancement, to give up a large estate to the young man, and resign his claims to the snatch, in the hope of a more important one. He thus makes the lovers happy, and is able at the same time to avenge himself for the rigours of a widow conute,s, to whom he pays his addresses, by pretending to insist on her marrying the Treasnnr. ll'hen all the objects of the Mock Ring have been attained, a letter from the real one informs to rn that he may lay down his temporary crown, and accept in its stead the appointment of a General, and a pen sion of 2000 Louis d'or. This interesting little drk=a had the advantage of some admirable acing. We never saw Mr, C. KEMBLE to more advantage than in the part of the pretended Nionarch. His alternate strug gles to support his assumed majesty, and to con ceal his real person front the plying eyes of his mistress, wete admirably managed, as well as his jealous anxieties. The piece was also essentially indebted to the original humour of LtsToN, as well as to the - able effortt. of BLANCHARD, ABBOTT. CONNER, M'ss FoNTE, and Mrs. DAYISON. It was thrwighout %veil received, and its success fully confirmed'on the conclusion. SHAKSPEARE'S beatititi7l sonnets, glees, duets, and trios, so long admired in the closet, and so well known 14t Concerts, are at length about to he introduced on the Stage, in his Comedy of Er rors, now reviving at Covent-Goulen. Mr. Lis- TON and Mr. W. FARREN are to perform the two Dromios; Miss STEPHENS and Miss TREE, Adriana owl Luciana. BATH ARRIVALS.—EarI Castlehaven, Earl of Arundel], Lady F.

Mr. Stent, at Christ Chnrch, on Sunday morning. Rev. Mr. Strong, of Oriel, at St. Mary's, in the afternoon. Extract of a Letter from Smyrna, dated Oct 2. Last week arrived here the brig Jane, from Malta, chartered to bring up Lieutenant Hon- SON, of his • Majesty's ship Spey, and a complement of men.. They immediately took possession of the English brig William, from Liverpool, and secured in irons the master, Christopher Delano, and all the crew, ex cepting the steward, a mulatto, who was ashore and kept out of the way. The charge against them is piracy, having plundered the Helen from Liver pool for Genoa, chiefly loaded with manufactures, and attempted to sink her after nailing down the hatches on the crew. What confirms this is, Delano's having landed and sold clandestinely, at Malta, a great quantity of manufactures, and hritiging here a g - ood deal of money iu specie, which he deposited in the hands of Messrs. J:icob Van Lennep and Co. On the piracy being known, Mr. Consul lVerry demanded and received the money from these Dutchmen. The William was consigned to, the English House of Messrs. Wilikelman, Heywood, and Co. Delano, said to be born in North America, has been sailing between Liverpool and this port for some years, and though reputed to be a clever man, his cha racter was not liked. lie and his crew must have been hardened villains to hope for escape with impunity, after committing such horrible crimes ; for they were coolly waiting to load buck for England, when, to the astonishment of all here, Lieut. Hobson carried ship and crew off to Malta, where it is trusted these vagabonds will meet their deserts." Nothing of any interest in our Port Letters of this day. The PRINCE REGENT will hold a Levee at Carl ton House on Friday next, the 26th inst. Yesterday the Duke of CLARENCE and Prince LEOPOLD visited the PRINCE REGENT, at Carlton House.

We are informed that the Corporation of Lon don, desirous of commemorating the signal ser vices of the Duke of WELLINGTON, in addition to the other testimonies of their approbation, have just named the new buildinp, now erecting on the lower district of Moot fields, " The IVel lington Amphitheatre." It is already graced by that magnificent building, the London Institution —the Catholic Chapel is also in a state of great forwardness, and will be an additional ornament to this hitherto neglected spot. When the intend ed opening to the 'loyal Exchange is made, it will, unquestionably, he the greatest improvement that the City has witnessed for 20 years. Three other streets, in the direction of Bisbopsgate, Kingsland, atul Aldersgate-street, are contem plated in the plan, but the property to be bought tip, in these neighbourhoods, will render the com pletion a work of time.--(Morning Paper.) Thursday night, about nine o'clock, a young woman walking along Lansdowtie-place, Berke ley-square, and heating the cries of a child, pro ceeded to the spot where they came from, and found an infant about six months old, wrapped up in some cloth, apparently in a dying condi tion. She immediately carried it to Sr. George's Work-house, where it shortly after died in great pain. On the surgeon opening the body, it was ,ascertained that a quantity of poison of an opiate description, bad been given to the child,, which caused its death. The parents are at present unknown. The body lies for the Coronet's Inquest. (CIRCULAR.)

SEDITIOUS PUBLICATIONS. THE KING V. RUSSELL. This Defendant, who received Sentence a day or two since, for publishing a Blasphemous Parody on the Litany, was this morning brought up to plead to an Indictment, charging him with pub lisiting a cenain Libel in Nu. 2, of a Pamphlet called " The Republican," The defendant, when called on for his plea, said he had applied for a copy of the Indictment, for it was so long, and contained so many counts, that without a copy he could not safely enter on his defence. Mr. Jovice HOLROYD !OM the defendant, that he had not the power to grant him the means of obtainit;g.a copy. The Defendant stated to the Court, that the whole of his property had been assigned for the benefit of his Creditors, and be wiAied to know if he might not plea►! in forma pauperis. Mr. Justice HOLROYD said, he might plead then if he pleased ; and if he afterwards proved to the Court, by affidavit, that l►e was not worth five pounds, the Court would allow him the be nefit of defending i►imself in form a pauperis. The Defendant pleaded Not Guilty, which was recorded. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19. JUDGMENTS. THE KING v. T. G. SKLYRRAN. Mr. GURNEY prayed the judgment of the Court Upon this defendant who was convicted of perjury at the last sittings at Guildhall.

The Court granted him until to-morrow se'n night. THE KING V. JAMES LONG. This defendant was convicted for assaulting Joseph Swithers, an officer of the Customs, and being now brought up for judgment was sentenced to One month's imprisonment in the King's Bench Prison. John Murray and Wm. Samways, wilo suffered judgment to go by default, on a charge for mak ing lights on the coast of Dorset, on the 6th of October, 1818, to assist two smuggling boats, were sentenced, one (Murray) to four months im prisonment in Dorchester Gaol, and to be kept at hard labour—and the other to three months im prisonment and hard labour in the Gaol of Bad. The Court was occupied the remainder of the day upon the special and peremptory papers, and hearing mo:ions, none of which were of public interest. COURT OF CHANCERY, NOVEMBER 19. THE VENEZUELAN REPUBLIC. EASDAILE AND OTHERS V. CAMPBELL This was a motion of some interest to persons concerned in the welfare of the Venezuelan Re public. It appeared that an agent of the Govern ment Bf that State, named Mendez, being desi rous of procuring certain matters for the benefit of that State, applied to some persons in London, who, through the medium of a person named William Duncan Campbell, 'entrusted him with goods to an amount exceeding 20,0001. in payment for which he gave some papers pur porting to be the securities of the Venezuelan Re public. Those securities were afterwards given by W. D. Campbell to the creditors in London,lwhen a deed of agreement was signed,, by which it was provided that the said W. D. Campbell should not be arrested or imprisoned on account of the secu• rities given, and also that a man named Jones should be sent to South America for the purpose of procuring payment from the Rulers of the Re public. Don Louis Lopez Mendez was, however, subsequently arrested for the sum of 30,0001. at the snit of W. D. Campbell, and obliged to un tlergo the horrors of imprisonment in the prison of the King's Bench. The present motion had, therefore, for its object, first, that W. D. Camp bell, who threatened to go himself to seek pay• ment of the securities in South America, should be restrained from leaving the Kingdom by a writ of ne treat regno ; secondly, to compel the fulfilment of the contract entered into between him and the plaintiff; and, thirdly, to procure the liberation of Don Louis Lopez Mendez front the Marshatsea. Mr. HEALD and Mr. Ross supported the mo , tion : MI. rHILLINWHE opposed it. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that the motion for liberation ought to have been made in the Court of Common Pleas. Mr. PHILLIMOBB said, that it bad been made there. Mr. lieu.n admitted that it had been made before Mr. Justice Park, who thought the sum was of too large an amount for a single Judge to in terfere. Mr. HEALD argued at some length for the motion. The LOUD CHANCtLLOR Was of opinion, that it was necessary to spew the Court that it had the means of doing justice. The Government of Ve nezuela, ►f any such existed, was not recognized by the Government of this country, and a 3 such it could not be acknowledged by any Judge upon. the Bench. If the plaintiffs had dealt with Camp , • bell and given him a release from the conse quences of the debts contracted by him, on his giving them certain papers, purporting to be the securities of another Government, which might he called hypothetical, the Court could not inter fere. Fur the first application there was no ground, and for the second, it would lead to the appointment of a receiver, who would be a re ceiver ot a nonentity. The Court could not inttr• fere iu such concerns.
