FOR THE SUN. NEW INVJESTS. MR. Eorroa—As the Oldhafit Inquest will pro bably be over some time or ocher, perhaps even be ore the Meeting of Parliament, I feel very Imxioits as to what The Chronicle and The Times may have to amuse their readers with, provided they shall have any readers when that event takes place. I have been looking round me for some time in order to get up another Exhib—lnquisition I would s,,y—and have found out a fir subject for the occasion ; one that must come home much closer to Ministers than ever that of John Lees can possibly do ; and indeed my principal doubt now is solely whether the ' Gentleman—for all folks are Gentlemen and Esquires now-a-days— will be inclined to pop off just in the nick of time for the required purpose. He has not shewn Limself very ready to die to please his enemies, end I query much whether l e will even do so, willingly, to gratify his friends. The Gentleman I allude to, Sir, is NAPOLEON 13UONAPARTE OP ST. HELENA, ESQ., the great undertaker who declined business some time ago over the way, in consequence of the shock given to his credit by a failure at the attempt to open a new shop i❑ Flanders, to the extreme disappoint ment of his numerous friends in 'his Country, who had actually the mortification of seeing his name it, the Gazette, alter the ahriouncetuent of a dissolution of parto,r , hip; pArtly, as it was Said, owtog to the extrav3ganee of Ilk charge. ! Now, .t4ir, if we can only prevail upon this 'Gentleman to leave this sTnrld and try for a better, before the forms of The Chronicle and 7'imes shall be shaken into pie on the close of their grand 'publication, why then, Sir, they may keep the matter standing, simply changing the n: the of the Oldham inquest, and leaving the anSwers pretty much as they stand at prer.en: : for you gill have the goodness to observe, Sir, that as there was a great Meeting at Alanchester, so was there also on the plateau of La Belle Alliance, all for the Liberty of Mankind and " Universal Sufferings." Then, Sir, as one party paraded through " Peterlou" to Manchester, so the other set off to parade through Wrster/oo to Brussels, as he would have done had be not peen way-laid by en Enr;lish Justice of the Peace, who most imper tinently stopped the procession, although legally assembled with appropriate banners, Now, Sir, it can be shewn that our Justice never read the lli,it Act before lie ordered the Cavalry to charge, ► fact which Mr. HARMER can substantiate by at least severity thousand witnesses, all of whom, I mist, be will be permitted to examine, with due comments on the evidence of each, accompanied by his determination to prove, that not only the Justice and the Cavalry, but also Ministers and somebody else who thanked them, are all guilty of the murder of NAPOLEoN BUONAFARTE, ESQ., though he did not die that day, and though he was not, like Ho NT, taken on the hustings. But then, Sir, he was taken afterwards, and Mini sters refused bail ! Mark that, Sir, they refused bail, although be offered Mr. THEMISTOCLES or ATHENS, and Mr. DiONYSIUS OF SYRACUSE, atter wards of CORINTH, 89 his bondsmen ; two Gen tlemen who I dare say could have sworn to their property every whit as well as Sir CHARLES %VoLSELEV, and J. CARLILE, Esq. Then, Sir, John Lces chase not to have a doctor when he retired to Oldham. just as Mr. Buotsra rAßTE did at St. Helena, when he refused to take (iraughts from any bat those to whom he could give drafts in return. Next, Sir, John Lees had a bad liver, surely nobody ever supposed that the great NAPOLEON was a good liver, Besides, John Lees had a cut on the elbow, as Mr. BUONAFARTE might ,have had also, if he had stopped long enough ; but, as it was, it can be proved ,that he had a rap on the knuckles. • • Then, Sir, we can bring forward Mrs. Levy I:nniolini, who will swear to any thing, and who will doubtless give a very proper answer when Asked if she ever kept a naughty house at Ajaccio or As Mr. HOONT will not choose again to bring forward the boy Hall, we may perhaps prevail_ou Cardinal FLSCH, to fetch his young nephew, who can prove that he 103 t his gilt .cradle, together With his privy purse, and a new crown given hint for a keep-sake, all in consequence of the Waterloo now, when the Cavalry charged to the titter dis persion of the field, and Mr. BUONAPART3 got i,picezed in the crowd, even when he was running ,:way like John Lees! But even if this Inquest should not take place hi time, 1 have got another, Mr. Editor, all ready cut and dried. We ail know of the arrival of Mrs. Moni holm from St. Helena, much praised by our own travelling Morgiana as a Literary Lady, and Thom, therefore, Ministers naturally supposed to a Lady of Letters, and refused her landing in England. Now, Sir, this Lady has a liver COM.. Flaint we are told, and was ordered to drink the Cheltenham waters but our ungallant Cabinet, thinkinz4 she n►igi,t, choose to fish in troubled Wa ters, have sent t►er over to Ostend, where she may get a drop of something else if she pleases. But this is certainly wilful murder, or manslaughter at the least ; nod u ill assuredly make a most excel lent case, if Mrs, Montholon will only die when she is wanted. 011 this, Mr. Editor, surely the thanks of the Liverftuen, previous to tite close of the Poll, are due to Yotir'S, IGNOTUS. LONDON JOURNALS. FROM THE MOIININ!; PAPERS OF THIS DAY. [Morning Chronicle.] CAPTURE OF BARCELONA. The following Extracts relating to the affairs of Barcelona and Cutuana, have been handed to ns: " Island of Margarilta, July 25.--I have the pleasure to inform you of the taking of Barcelona, by General lirdaneta. Our squadron, composed of fiftven armed vessels, is now blockading Cu matta, where the Spanish Fleet is shut up, con sistiug of six larger vessels, and among them the frigate Nymph, and besides eight fiecheras, the whole of which we expect will soon tall into our hands. The Spaniards thought that from the Island of Margaritta such an expedition could nev:r come against them, but at a very serious expence—they have been undeceived. Trinidad, Aug. 4.—A coaster has arrived here in eleven days from Margaritta, by which the cap ture of Barcelona is confirmed, by the troops con» stitutinv, the expedition from that island, under Gen. Urdaneta. The fortress of the Morro was taken by assault on the ISth July, together with the garrison, and three Spanish vessels having troops on hoard to strengthen the town, were also captured. Ott the 25th, the British and Margarita forces were landed at Bordoneo, a little to leeward of Cumand, to the siege of.which place they ialmediately proceeded. The capture of the Morro of Barcelona was made by Colonel Urslar, with 300 Blitish and Germans, with the loss of 11 me,: and two officers." Lord Holland had yesterday an audience of the Prince Regent. It was, however, solely for the purpose of presenting a Petition of the Corpora tion of Nottingham, of which his Lordship is Re corder. The Petition is, we understand, in the spirit of the Yorkshire Requisition ; it prays for au inquiry into the late transactions—deprecates all illegal interference with Public Mee:ings—and, while it disclaims all connection with visionary or ill-designing Mell, justly observes, that nothing is mole certain of giving them popularity, than any attempt to put them down with violence un authorized by law.—(lbid) [New Times.] Loyal Declarations, as they ate undoubtedly called for by the peculiar emergencies of the time, so.sve a►re happy to find that they are multiplying both in Town and Conntry,more especially where the disaffected have endeavoured to cast a stigma on the administration of the laws, or to bring into contempt the Constitution.

F SUN _A 1 • !OLEN QnS DICILHZ FALSUM AUDFAT r LONDON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7. 1819. We received this morning the Paris Papers of Sunday and 'Monday last. The following are ex tracts : " PARIS, OCT. 4.---Saturday, after mass, the King, and Madame the Duchess d'Angouleme, held over the haptistini font the son of the Count Decazes, one of the daughters of the Marquess de Rouge, and the daughter of Csunt Arthur de Bouill6. 'il►c baptismal ceremony ►vas performed by the Cardinal de Talleyrand Perigord, Grand Almoner of France. " The King received yesterday the Ministers, several General Officers, and Public Functionaries. In the atternoon his Majesty transacted business With the Minister of the Interior. " Sir James Crawford has appealed against the udgment of the Tribunal of Municipal Police. " It is said that several Committees have been formed in the Council of State for the pieparation of Projets of Law, which are to be submitted to the Chambers next Sessions. Amongst them are those relative to Stay Trial, l‘lunicipal Administration, the National Guards, and Edu cation. A Committee formed by the - Minister of War is also, h is said, occupied it preparing a Military Penal Code. " The Queen of Spain arrived at Toulouse on the 26th ult. " The important note of the Baron de Vincent, the Austrian Minister, which, as stated, accom panied the communication of the resolutions of the Congress of Carlsbad, made to the French Govern ment, has become the object of the most ridicul ous reports. The Jacobin Journals would have us believe that this note relates " to an approach ing war , between Austria and Russia, in which France is invited to take part." This absurd re port has been evidently propagated by some libe raux of the Stock Exchange. We believe we may inform Messieurs the Liberaux, that the war in the North, of which they are con tinually dreaming, and which they so much desire, will be postponed for 10 or 12 years, the period required to consolidate legitimate order in Europe, and to bring to their senses that band of French, English, and German Revolutionists, who, under the pretext of serving the people, meditate the overthrow of Governments. We know that what at present occupies all the Cabinets of Eu rope, is the means of extirpating revolutionary principles—principles truly libert i icide—and of guaranteeing to nations the tranquil enjoyment of their rights, by a faithful adherence to their duties. We are persuaded, that nothing is capa ble of turning them from this great object, and that soon, thanks to the feeling► of a common necessity, all the powers of Europe will combat this revolutionary hydra, which only raises its head when there is airy hesitation about cutting it OE—(Jol/mat des Debats.)

" FRANKFORT, SEPT. 28.—The Diet have agreed, upon the motion of the Austrian Minis ter, to the establishment of a permanent Judicial Tribunal, for the purpose of promptly deciding the differences between the Members of the Con federation, which are of a nature to be judicially decided. " The following Governments are to appoint the Members of the Commission to be established at Mayence :—Austria, Prussia, Bavaria, Hanover, Baden, Grand Duchy of Besse Nassau. " The King of Wurtemberg intends to be at Warsaw on the Bth October, and to remain there till the departure of the Emperor of Russia, which is fixed for the I Gth. The Emperor will arrive there the sth. " VIENNA, SEPT. 21.—The Prince de Metter nich has invited all the Ministers of the German Courts, who were at Carlsbad, to come to Vienna, at the commencement of next month, with the instructions of their Sovereigns respect ing several subjects ou which the discussion is not terminated," By accounts from Bermuda, of a late date, we are informed that the Ametican schooner Nonsuch went into Carlile Bay, Barbadoes, with dispatches to Admiral CAMPBELL, from- Commodore PERRY, who was cruizing to the windward of that Island itt quest of Pirates.: ' • By Letters received yesteiday from New York, of the Ist September, it is stated that a great number of Emigrants, lately arrived there from Europe, have engaged their passage to return to their Mother Country. The Dublin Evening Post, of Saturday, says,— " Yesterday we received, exclusively, a Letter from a highly respectable Gentleman, dated Kings ton, Jamaica, Aug. 6, in which he says,' lioLI VAR has taken Santa Fe, in New Grenada;—this news arrived the day before yesterday, by a vessel direct from the Main.' We previously had intel ligence of his being within four days march of it, which renders the account 6f the Capital having fallen into his hands the more probable." We may well congratulate the country in gene ral, as well as the City of London in particu lar, on the triumphant success of Alderman BRYDORS, not merelyonaccount of that Gentleman, who well deserves his success, but because it ma nifests the defeat of Radical Reformers, the vile Democratic Party, who disgrace the City, the WoocEtts, the CARLILUS, the HUNTS, &C. &C. The chiefchnracters of the City, possessing orulenr;e and respectability, which ought to give weight to their opinions, have thus shewn that if they continue_ to come forward, they will always have a proper influence upon tlie majority of ti? LlrN•y ; rhu cannot but feet for the honour of their own fra ternity, and thul the Corporation of London will be again what it should be, the moit dignified Mercantile Body in the World. HALIFAX MEETING.—Another of the Reform• ing Meetings took place on Monday last on Skircoat Common, Halifax, Yorkshire. There was nothing to distinguish it from other Meetings of the same kind. Banners, flags, Inset iptions, quite in the stile of all the previous Performances of the saute nature, were brought forward to captivate the unwary. The speeches of the Oratorical Rt,fcriners, and the Resolutions adopted, were not different frotu all those which we have before presented to our Readers. In the middle of the proceedings there was an alarm of soldiery approaching, which was the signal for a general scamper, but it appearing to be A false alarm, the Leaders collected their scattered troops, and resumed their harangues. A vast number of persons assembled, but no mischief happened. CARLILE.—This morning, Carlile the Book« seller, attended at the Crown-Office, with a Gen. tleman from the office of Mt. Matua, ,to reduce the Jury appointed to try the information filed against him by his Majesty's Attorney-General, for publishing Paine's Age of Reason, and other alleged blasphemous works. The Trial is ape pointed for next Tuesday, and several persons of distinction have been subpoenaed on the part of the defence.—The following was the List of Jo+ rors struck : • Niel Black, Bread-street. Charles Wood, Abchurch-lame. John Lindsay, Lawrence Panntney-lam Robert Hutchinson, Ament's-lane. • John Hanson, CrooLed-lany. George Harvey, Lawrence-lane. Thomas Kent, Poultry. Andrew Loughman. Bucklersbury: Thomas Oldham, Barge-yard. William Huffman, King's Arms-yard. Favernu, Coleman-street. ' • Nilliam Aldcrsey, Tolienhouse-yard. John Wilson, Queen-street. • George Ellwall, Love-lane. R. Chamhers, Dote-court. John Phillips, Cullum-street. John Napier, Fenchurch-street. Josaph Jellico, Feachurch-street. John Younger, Crescent. XVIII. Parker, Joha• street. Daniel Eckenstein, Cuita~s -bill. • Yesterday the PRINCE ItSGENT Reid a Court at Carlton-house, which was attended by the Mar• guess of Headfort, as Lord of the:Bedchanibee, Hon. Mr. Buller, Clerk of the Council, Right ' Hon. N. Vansittarr, Mr. Ryder, Mr. Bagor, an& Mr. Peel. Lord Sidmouth and Lord Holland bad audiences of the Prince Regent at Carboo.. house, when Lord Holland presented the Re. monstrance and Petition to his Royal Highness from Nottingham. The letters for the Halifax packet we find will i f be made up on Saturday next. The late visit of the CHANCELLOR of CAMBRIDCI to that University has exact' much attention, and given little satisfaction. It Appears that his Royal Highness did not visit or make calls at several et the Colleges and Hails. We hope there is not I any truth in the observation, which attributes this apparent disrespect to political motives—for we cannot suppose his Royal Highness so de ficient in good sense and experieoce as to have suffered any consideration of that kind to have in fluenced his conduct on the occasion ; and, there fore, we trust that there is no truth in it, but that his omitting to make these calls, or visits of cour tesy, resulted inadvertently from his other more pressing engagements The Universities of Sweden are in the moat flourishing state. In the first quarter of the pre sent year, the number of Students at Upsal amounted to 1197 ; and those of Lund to 600.: The whole of the Establishments of the King' dom, professing to communicate classical educa tion, contained 3,455 scholars. These lustitu- - (ions cost the State annually about 60,0001., of which 40001. is employed in the maintenance of ! I youth during the course of their studies, in cases where such assistance is wanted for that purpose. THE THERAIM OF 3ULSAN.—The French Go vernment has lately purchased the most consider• able remains of antiquity at Paris, the Arcade known as the Baths of Julian, in the Rue tie is Harpe. This edifice is to be repaired and fitted up as a Museum for the reception of such articles ( of antiquity as are yet remaining at the Petits.. Augustins: . The Charity Estates, hitherto tinder the ma• nagernent of the Corporation of Winchester, Lave been, it is said, greatly underlet, to the serious injury of the Inhabitants of that City. One of the farms, it is reported, was let for a yearly rent considerably under the sum produced yearly froth the tythes of the same farm ! ! Phirrsnowx HILL —We heard yesterday carter• noon, that it is the intention of the Trustees of this road to make a TUNNEL throm2,h this celeo hrated hill, beginning at the turnpike-gate on tho Loudon side of it. PETFAILOROUGH CATHEDRAL.----A traveller de" SACS its to notice the excellent condition owl cleanliness of this fine bnilding—and the conttfi r it forms to the neglected and dirty state of 00i of Ely ! The following is an extract of a private lette r from Jamaka, received yesterdav :—" 'I Ica British subjects, john Hudson and John J o ne s i were tried under a Special Cominisiion in Jamoi" on the 2tftb 01'July last, fur having, in violatiO of the Laws for the Abolition ot the Slave Trade' brought sonic Atrican Negroes to that i s land, tor the purpose of dis:iosing of them as slaves. r il' e. ; prisoners were hoih found guilty, and senten ce ' s to trhusportation the former for seven ycar 6 and the latter for three years.
