The Radical Papers have made a prompt handle of the offence—as they chose to term it—of the Trumpeter Me”cyEp, This man, being hunted by a pack of Reformers, turned upon them, and Wounded a brace of his pursuers. Our Readers know the result ;—the test set op a halloo after Lim, and nothing, forsooth, will content them but W e are closely watching the progress of the - Rebellion ; which in its very incipience sreadds so observantly in the track of its Irish Sister of 1798. In fact, there is scarcely a move mentof our Radicals which is not copied from their Hibernian Prototype. And why, should it not ?—According to the Proverb which we have chosen to head this article—" LIKE LILES LIKE." The Radicals are not scrupulous in their se lection of examples. Any thing Irish, be it Popery or Rebellion 7 —both of which pretty wrongly savour of Radicalism—finds in them ready imitators. A short anecdote, on the truth of which our Readers may confidently rely, will evince this promptitude of imitation. In 1810, an Orangeman, named Byvte, sailed from Dublin in. a Liverpool vessel. During the iloyage, he was plundered by some radical passen gers, who, in overhauling his pocket-book, found the Certificate of his Lodge. This was an unpar donable crime. He WM; radically convicted upon the spot, radically stripped of all his littl e pr o . Petty, and sentenced to be radically thrown over board. The Law, however, being still strong onongh to question this radical jurisdiction, his life was spared, and he was set on shore at Liver pool in a whole skin, but without his money or +certificate. We shall not stop to enquire how ;—but the Certificate, some way or other, travelled into the bands of Counsellor O'CoNNELL, the great Leader of the Popish I - libel - no-Radicals. The 'Counsellor announced it in a flaming speech at an si:gregate Meeting in Dublin, and a fac simile saf poor brims's Orange Certificate was given, ir. c wooden cut, made for the purpose, in the Dub lin Chief -Radical Paper, The Evening Herald. The conseyience may he guessed. BYttNs was necrally hunted through Dublin. Wheresoever he stirred, he was pursued, and hallooed, and cream cfl at, and shouter/ at.

All our attempts to dislodg( the enemy produced no other effect than our continually beating in the guerrillas I sent out to oppose us. At five this morning, the army marched by the road of Sa litre de Paype, to attack the enemy sword in hand, mid force him to abandon his defences. At ten, the army succeeded in passing the river Sogamoza, and at twelve met the enemy, who had moved towards us. Circumstances obliged us to take op a most extraordinarily unfavourable position, in which we were attacked with' im petuosity by the whole Spanish army of New Granada. The first battalion of the King's. with some companies of the second, marched on our left, and to them were op posed the two battalions of the van. At the same time, the enemy moved on our front the second and third battalions of Numantia, the remains of the Tambo, amid the regiment of dragoons of Granada, where they were at tacked by a column of the rear, at the head of which were some companies of the British Legion, who charged with such intrepidity that the enemy was at once beaten and dispersed. By a vigorous rally, he renewed the battle with desperation, made himself master of the heights, and our army, almost surrounded, suffered a horrible fire on all sides. Any other troops than these of the Republic would have lost so brilliant a victory as that we have gained. A colninn of cavalry, headed by the brave Command e• Rondon, destroyed a part of the enemy's infantry, at the time our infantry doing the same with that in our rear, and another part of our ca valry, commanded by Lieutenant Carvajal, charged that of the enemy nu the high road. The Spanish army was dislodged from every point it occu pied, and the excellent position taken up by the remains of his cavalry alone saved it from total destruction. The battle continued until sen•set, with an obstinacy and acharnMent of which no idea can be formed. The enemy lost in killed and wounded five hundred of his best troops; and left in our pos session a mUltitude of prisoners, muskets, lances, ammuni tion cases, military chest, trumpets, and two standards of the dragoons of Granada, without being able to calculate accu rately the number dispersed. Our loss consists of one hundred and flour in killed and wounded. Every corps in the army has distinguished itself; but a particular mention is due to the conduct of Commandant Hondon and Lieutenant Carvajal; and likewise to that of the British companies, to whom his Excellency the President of the Republic, notwithstanding it was the first time they had fought molar our banners, has granted the Star of Liberators, i u tvstitokiny of their steadiness and gallantry. We are now is vossosion of the whole province of Tunja, with the exception of the capital, and those of Socorro and Pamplona are entirely free, and the remainder of the country in insurrection. Tbe towns of New Granada have received the Liberating Army with the most extraordinary enthusiasm. All are determined to be free; and the army, surrounded by towns so patriotic and decided, stands in need of nothing. NAMES OF OFFICERS KILLED. Van Division—Mateo Franco, Lieutenant of Casadores.

The farce of Post Ten o'Clock enabled MUNDeN and KNIGHT to operate very forCibly on the• risible faculties of a very numerous audience. COVENT-GARDEN.—Mr. AMHERST. who it seems ha, performed at many Provincial Theatres, last night made a bold attempt in the character of Alexander the Great. The success of Mr. KEAN, with so (natty physical defects, hai induced many other adventurers to come forward, in hopes, if dot of' equal popularity, y'et of applause and encouragement. Mr. AMHERST in figure very Much resembles Mr. KEAN, but by no means pos. 6tSSES such Marking features, and his voice is even worse. He mast be acknowledged to have formed a'jodicious conception of the part,' thoiigh Iris powers of execution were not corre spondent, His voice is 'lreak, and his utterance is not quite articulate. His action wai altogether easy, and not ungraceful. Jo small Theatres it is probable that he might perform with considerable effect. He received much applause in the earlier scenes, but was afterwards treated with illiberal harshness bymatey persons in the Galleries, perhaps, for one reason, because his tunes were not audible enough •to reach them, but the generality of the audience in a . gre • at' degree overcame this hostile feeling. On the whole, however, Mr. Au- HIIRST is certainly not go,iiified to make a distin guished figure on the Patentee Stage of a London Theatre.—Mi. Maces/kin was put out Of his pro per line in Cattis, though be is too good an Actor to play.any thing indifferently.

There have already -been - tub 'many dreadful illustf ationi of the -nbiect of the incendiaries who traverse the country, Whose wish is "License, when they cry Liberty ;" -awl it it now high time radically to • stop their• further progres: • A Meeting of the Magistrates and Gentry of the County, convened by J. S. Ildrry,. Esq. High Sheriif, was • held •tliis day •at tire Crow n Northivich, to take into consideration the pro priety of establishing an additional armed force for preserving the peace of , the County. It wail the most numerous and respectable sneering knovi'n tor many years ; the High Sheriff was in the Chair. Amongst the crowd of wealthitalent, and respectability, present; were— ' Sir H. Mainwariv, Baronet, Sir E. Antrobus, Bart. Sir J. G. Egeiton,!Bart. E. V. Tawnsbend, Esq. N. bl. Pattisan i Esq. 'l'. C. Dad, Esq. Rev. H. I). Broughton., Rev. W. W. Drake, Rev. D. Tarleton, Rev. G O'KeII, W. Egerton, Esq. M. P. J. Toankinson, Esq. Trafford Trafford, Esq. R. Coo grere, Esq. &c. The Resolutions were moved and seconded by Thos. Cholmondeley, Eq. and Sir H..M. Waring, Wirt. and they were to the effect—that it is'expedient'to raise an MI(116011/11 atmed.torce for the protection of the County, and that subsctip. tions be: entered into to carry the object of the Meeting into effect. A Committee composed of twenty Gentlemen, among whom were,•the High Sheriff, Sir R. Brooke, Bart. Sir J. G. Egerton; Bart. Sir T. S. M. Stanley, Bart. and Sir J. T. Stanley; Bart. was then appointed. It eras also agreed that the Committee should meet again on the 2G+ll inst. (five' being compe tent to:act) and on that day, each of the Gentle:- men should make a return of the number of men in their several districts desirous of stepping for ward in so good a rause. Upwards of 40001. we're subscribed in the room. The Most royal and cordiai unanimity prevailed throughout. Indeed, a more gratifying meeting never took place in this county. The 'how of " property men," (as they are called by the ita. dicals) bas seldom been equalled. MANCHISTER i Friday Evening, Six o'Clock.— Yesterday a Requisition was presented to the Ho• rouglireeve of Manchester, requesting him to call a Public Meeting, to be held on the 2d Novem ber ; of course Itt refused, but it is Cully expected that the Meeting will nevertheless take place. • Pxasrote, Ocr. 16. Three men, who have been engaged in the fabrication of pikes, have this week been apprehended and lodged in the House of Correction in this tow!). Their names are John Miller, of the township of Mellor, near Blackburn ; James Morris, of Haslingden-grain; and John Knowles,' of Bilwton-stall, near Has. liugden. John Miller, a youth, 20 years of age, was taken in his grandfather's smithy, in the met of workingoneof these instruments on the anvil,in the evening of Tuesday last, and brought before the Rev. T. D. Whitwker, LL.D. of Blackburn. Dur. ing the examination a crowd assembled in the streets, and some apprehension was entertained of an attempt to rescue the prisoner ; but party of the 7th Dragoon Guards being called out, no serious mishief occurred. After a short hearing, the prisoner Was committed for a fur. ther examination : at present he, in common wits the other two, stands charged on oath "with hav ing fabricated certain weapons called pikes, or pike-heads, with intent that the same pikes or pike-heads should be used for the purpose of effecting, by force and violence, a change in the 'awe and Constitution of the United King. dow." The other \ prisoners .were, we under-. stand, apprehended in con*egoence of de. clarations made by Julia Miller, or• his grand. father, Ralph the latter of whom has eluded the 'vigilance of the officers. Miller Was brought to the House of Copection here on the night of Tuesday, under au escort of the ith Dragoon Guards, and Morris and Knowles were conveyed under a similar escort to the same place in the afternoon of Wednesday. We are informed that their further examination will be deferred until the Magistrates receive an answer to a communication which has been addressed' to his Majesty's Ministers. Miller is 'evidently a youth of weak intellect.; Morris hat much of the character of , a rough country blacksmith ; but Knowles seems to possets•a considerable share of intelligence, and to-be a -man of keen sarcastic obsarration.—(Preston Chronicle.) • MEL►NCHOLY CASC.—Con Monday last Inquest• were held by II Phillips, Esq. one of the Co. rimers for the County of Moutnotttb, at Ebbw Vale Fron-works, near Abergavenny, on the bodies of Mary Rosser, Daniel Rosser, Eliza beth Rosser, nonnts Rosser, Edward Ros ser, and Joh►i Davis.
