POR SiJN. PANS IS. Mr. Enron—As a passage in the learned and elegant Blackstone ha►li been misconstrued and misapplied, it may at this moment be proper to explain it. After stating the conduct Papists, and the occasional penalties they were subject to, he says, '' If a time shall come (and perhaps it is not very distant), when all fears of a Pretender shall have vanished, and the power and influence of the Pope shall become feeile, ridiculous, and contemptible, not only in England, but in every Kingdom of Europe, it .probably would not then be amiss to review and soften th e se rig oro us edicts ; at least till the civil principles of the Ro man Catholics called again upon the Legislature to renew.them." This, he then says, .has partly been done by the statute of 'IS 60, by such of them as take the oath of ,allegiance to the King, abjure the Pretender, renounce: the civil supremacy of the Pop?, and abhor the doctrine of destroying and not keeping faith with heretics, or deposing and murdering Princes excommunicated. These are the words of our great Commentator, which only relate to the religion of Papists ; and such was the prescience of this admirable writer, that in thirteen years after, the statute of the 31 Geo. 111. ch. 32. repealed all penalties against them, and put them under the same toleration as Protestant Dissenters. Ilis comments did not ex-. tend to admit them into civil trust and power. Far from it. Schism is not an object of temporal co ercion ; it may be the effect of disordered intel lect, hypocrisy, or civil advantage ; but if it threaten, in practice, ruin or destruction to the State, the Civil Magistrate is bound to repress it, and protect the Established Church ; and not to admit any but its genuine members into offices of trust and emolument, as a matter of favour and discretion.

Various letters have reached town from Spain ; the most recent dates are front Cadiz to the 31st ult. and front Madrid to the Bth inst. We have also accounts from the sante' places, received by way of Flanders. Those by the latter con veyance state, that the numerous detachments of infantry, cavalry, and artillery, are continued to collect in Andalusia, which are destined to form part of the great expedition. It is . said, that twenty vessels from Great Britain, Bur deanx, and Bayonne, had 'arrived at Cadiz, and intended as transports. 'fits is not alto „ether correct ; the only Ships horn England at. Cadiz were the Sir Stephen Lushington, at 600 tons, and the Adventurer, of 300 tons, but a great many others were expected ar6the 10th or 12th, as they all sailed about the sOhe , ime. Accord ing to intelligence received from Peru, the people of Arancana had sent two Deputies to Lima, who bad arrived in November last. The ob ject of their mission was to seek for arms and military stores, in order that" the people whom they represented might defend their hills and val lies against the Insurgents,, who appeared to hare laid a plan, to inOttle their territories by the frontiert nt Chili. The Vicroiov, it is said, received the'Depuries with every mark of respect, expressing his determination to supply them with all sorts of arms, consisting of muskets, lances, and a Considerable quantity of gunpowder. lie also advised, that rhey sttonhf.be accompanied by experienced Officets, whose dory it woidd be to point out to the inhabitants of Araucana the hest measures to be adopted to make it difficult tou rhe Patriots to penetrate into their country.--- (Morning Paper) - IRELAND.

ROYAL litlNT.—On Friday morning, soon after ten o'clock; the Royal Stag-hounds started a fine deer at Burnham Grove, Buchingliamshire,,for the day's diversion, which collected a numerous field of sportsmen of all descriptions. This fine deer ran off with great swiftness to•the right of Taplow, towards Dropmnre Hill, taking to the left through the woods by Lord Boston's, down the hill towards Woburn, where it 'made sercro: turns, taking up the hill Irmo tl:e Tbames side, and ran with great sp . red across the enclosures to *the left of Beaco»sfield and Bullstrode, crossed the Weybridge road, through the fields and enclosures, and crossed the Aylesbuty road, where it was soon taken on the other side of Chaffing, about seven teen or eighteen miles front where it was turned out. The chase lasted four hours, and the deer showed great snort during the course of the hunt. Another fine deer was turned out on Monday at Bellfont. There will be aunther bunt on Friday, which will be the last this season.

SHOCKING A CCIDENT.—A shocking accident occurred on Tuesday last, at the Medway Lower Navigation Lock, near this town. A barge laden With stone ''as in the act of having its freight weighed, which is usually done previous to -passing through the Lock, when an immense stone of upwards of, a too weight was preci pitated from the crane, in consequence of a swivel's breaking, and filling on a waterman of the name of Mec-.y, literally dashed his head to pieces. A man mimed ,Harman stood close to the deceased at the time, and the stone struck hint on the arm and leg and injured him materially. The" . body of the deceased was con veyed to the Lock-House, where a Coroner's Inquest was taken on view of it, on Wed nesday, before J. Duneow, Esq. Ver diet—" Accidental Death." The deceased vas an honest and indusbious man, and we lament to lstate, has left a widow and tour small children (Maidthnie 'Martial, April 20 ) SEDITION. CHESTER, Anut, 19, 1819. John Bagueley - John Drummond, anti Samuel Johnson, convicted of Sedition on the Isth' tight. were this d:►y brought up to receive sentence. .H The CHIEF JUSTICE, after having very patiently, heard the prisoners at the Bar make their defence respecting any rnHgation of punishinent, then addressed then► as follows : " Samuel Johnson, John Drummond, and John Bagurley, you have been charged, severally awl jointly, with Sedition,with addressing a large meet ing, and tittering such expressions AS to stir op and incite the people to disrespect and hatred of his Ma jesty's Government and his Ministers. You are like. wise charged in this Indictment with a conspiracy 8 gains/ the Government of this Realm, with ritt intention to subvert it." Llis Lordship then ob served, that the piisoners had pleaded Not Guilty to the Indictment, that the case had been patient... , ly heard, that their Counsel was not interrupted, and that they had called on their part no wit nesses, for they would have been heard also with the greatest patience. His Lordship likewise ob served, that . the evidence was so clear, the wit- nesses so consistent in every respect as to their evidence, and that the J u ry were so convinced of their guilt, as appears from their verdict, to the satisfaction of himself and all persons present, appealing to them, and observing, that if any of them were not perfectly satisfied, they should state why they have any doubt on the subject, because he himself was perfectly satisfied that the case was so clear and convincing as not to be contradicted. His Lordship then adverted to an opinion of one of the prisoners, who had been speakiog concerning Judges, Juries, Ste. having previous instructions front Goveroment how to act; remarking that they must be ignorant of thedoty,&c. of a Judge, if t ey supposed t heir j udg mew di- pen d ed upon any previous arrangement of Government, or of the Cabinet Ministers, for he declared, as he had frequently done before, that the sentence which would. be _presently passed upon them, would chiefly depend Boot! the evidence of the prosecution, and that it would have no relation to any other eircums•ance but what was connected with the present case ; that he was biassed by no authority, but be should pass sentence according to the evidence he had heard. His Lordship then read. some of the speeches of each prisoner, with suitable comments: he adverted to the distress of the time when thesemectings occurred, that the Weavers and Spinners were chiefly out of employ, that they paraded the streets in vast bodies about that pe riod ; and then observed, that they took advan tage to call a meeting to inci:e the people there assembled, by various inflammatory and sedinous speeches, intended to stir them tip to disaffection to the King and hatted of the Governmeut, and so forth, as was expressed in the indictment. Be here read a great part of the evidence respect:to; the speeches of the prisoners. He observed also, that the meeting was called under the pretence of takitag into consideration the distress and grievattces of the people, and importing that a change of representation was absolutely neces sary, with other topics of the like nature, lint that they at this meeting delivered speeches of a seditious tendency, as specified in the evi dence ; that their several speeches were on very inflammatory subjects, and such as were; more calculated to rouse the feelings of their hearers with respect to their ailed; ell grievances, soffeeings, and so forth ; adding . , that in one speech the King is called a robber ; that they have been starved by him ; and that all thieves are cunning ; and then their miseries were paint ed to them in the strongest colours, and they were advised to redress them by arms ; that the National Convention, which they would have established, should supersede the pre sent Constitution, and the ordinary laws of the Country, and that the people then present, together with the Delegates, should go armed to London, should there remonstrate about their griev. auces, and if not immediately redressed,should con tend with force for their liberties, "their long lost dibto His Lordship then adverted toJohnson's speech, se he rein he avowed an intention ofassassina tiog certain individuals therein named in a' wilful, cool, and deliberate manner, persons in the Cabinet of the names of Cast lereagh, Sidmouth and Canning, and he pointed out such evidence, as to render the case clear to all persons, evidence indeed so clear and consistent as not to be contradicted in any point ,whatever. His Lordship stated Bagueley's sentiments respecting the Petition, ,What was the Mee:ing held for ? Was it to take into consitletation a redress of the grievances of the People ?.Did they think it legal, when they asserted that they were glad they were so peaceable, or else they might be committed ? The Officer's of Justice were at hatiti, and they were conscious that very little would cause them to be committed. He then commented on the language made 'ise ok by Johnson and Drummond, and . infortned them, it was very fortunate that they were secured so early in their measures ; for if they had proceeded( one step .further, they would. most probably have stood atethe liar indicted for High Treason, the punishment of whim is the most severe that the Law inflicts, instead of the present judgment. He .then spoke of she Plisonets, alluding to Sidney, Hampden, and Russell, the Yontolers of the Constitution, . names which they on,:ht to revere, but which they•bad ',tainted, and alluded to by . them it) an assembly of persons who could be little read in the English flisterv. That Go- . veretnent was tinder no Maim of such persons RS tl,emselves, that the great mass of the people were allied to the Constitution, and that only such poineand deluded wretches as listened so theirs and suet) speeches were disattecteu to it. 1155 Lordship Oien . pronottliced the Sentence of Two Years lin prisotinent, and the prisoners to find hail in 5001. eio.l) themselves, for their good behaviour toy two years lug g er, and sureties in 1001. each.
