The Public ought to know that the Person who is thus styled the Princess of CUlkIBElt- LAND" and her " Royal Highness," is Alrs SERREs,the Wife.of,Mr. S MIRES, a Marine Painter of high reputation and acknowledged talents, from whom she has been separated many years. She was formerly a Miss NV mmorr, the niece of a reverend Dr. WiLmoT, whom, in a work pub lished a few years ago, she attempted to prove to be the Author of jumus, citing, however, such passages, from supposed' manu scripts, of the Doctor, as were marked , by the grossest ignorance and imbecility. She has since come forward with a list of Do,cn- MENTS, to prove that she is the daughter of the late ,Duke of CUMBERLAND, by a marriage de clared to have taken place before the Duke mar ried Mrs. HonToN, and while his first wife was living. tis observable, respecting the signatures to these Documents, that etxr,y one of the parties alleged to have signed them were (lead before the Documents were produced. This Lady does not seem to be aware that, in stating her Uncle" to have been in the confidence of his late MAJESTY, and yet that he was the Author of JuNms, she charges him with being the Author of gross Li bels upon a virtuous Sovereign, whose protection he enjoyed. But, in justice to Dr. WILMOT, may he truly asserted, that he was wholly un able, and probably little disposed, to write those celebrated Letters.—As to the Royal State which this Lady assumes, it is one of those farces with which the Public is often amused, and which is certainly beneath the notice of Government. A LOVER OF TRUTH. Oxford Coffee.houit, Nov. 17. " THE PRINCE'S OF CUMBERLAVD." In the midst of the ordinary business of the Pahlic Office, Bow-street, yesterday morning, a. very handsome equipage, bearing the Royal - Coronet on the pann,ls, over the initials 0. U., drove up to the door, and a Gewleman alighted from it, who requested to see the Magistrate immediately. tie was accordingly introduced to Mr. BERNIE, and he then • stated that he attended on behalf of " the Princess of CUMBERLAND," under the following circumstances : On Monday night last, as " Her Royal Highness" was at her toilet, in her lonise,. Allred place, Store-street, undressing, preparatory to her retiring to rest, a pistol, load ed With a ball, was fired at her, and the ball passing through the window, about ten or twelve inches above her head, was picked up in The room liy her waiting' woman. 'The Gentle man added, that " Her Royal Highness" having been much alarmed by the en cumstance, was at the present moment confined to lit r house by indispositioa : and being very desi rous of nualiing a deposition of the facts, it was her particular request to the Magistrate that he would visit her at tier house for that purpose, her carriage being then in. waiting to convey him there. - Mr. BERNIE., in the first place, dispatched a Police Officer , to inspect the premises; and he having returned, and stated his opiiiion that a pistol-hall had evidently perforated the window as described by tie Gentleman, Mr. Bernie went in the'cartiage, and waited upon " Her Royal Highness" as requested. We understand the ball was not found by the waiting wo man till the following morning. It was a very small ball, and was manifestly almost spent when it smelt the window. We are not aware-of the contents of " her Royal Highness's deposition, but it was stated by the gentleman that' Int - ob• • jest in malting it was, that a reward -might be offered for th e disc o very of ti ne ruffian who tired the pistol. lie slated also that " her Royal 'Highnuss " WKS not aware of any individual who could have the most distant - motive fur acting so La- Thiper.) Yesterday, at two o'clock, another Cabinet 1 Council was held at the Foreign Office, in Downing-street, which sat till a quarter past four o'clock. After the breaking up of the Coun cil the Earl of LIVERPOOL left town for his seat at Coombe Wood. The Duke of YORK transacted military busi ness with the KING yesterday. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT'S case was argued yes terday again at considerable length in the Court of King's Bench. Messrs. DENMNN and PIIILLIPS were heard in support of the rule for a new trial, and Mr. BL.CKBURN was partly heard, when the further hearing was postponed. The Dowager Duchess of RUTIAND left Cheve ley, Newmarket, yesterday, for her seat Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire. OXFORD UNIVERSITY: As several false reports have been in circula tion respecting the conduct of the University during the late Illuminations, we deem - to state the facts as they really bal,pened. On Saturday it was ascertained to be the wish o. many persons to illtiminate, and it. wa s thought expedient by the Beads of the Colleges not to oppose. the measure on the part of those who weie disposed. towards - it, but with the fall intenion of not suffering the Colleges, to partake in it. Be tween four and five o'clock. numerous, parties came from the surrounding country, and immediately raised a call for " lights," whieh was 'generally obeyed thrdughout the City. They proceeded to attack such houses as ere not and also sonic -of -the Colleges, " particularly Qt:liEx's, which appeared to be marked by the mob. in consequence of this outrage, some of the Colleges were obliged to place a few candles in their windows for the sake of self-preserva tion, and to preserve the public peace. On the whole: Saturday evening passed off with as little mischief as might be expected on such an occa sion. It was thought that the matter would have ended here; but oil Sunday and Monday morn reports were in circulation in all quarters ttl it. a .;erieral Illumination would be demanded on Monday evening, with reports of a more serious nature, declaring that it' was intended to Pao- CL AIN 11Elt MAJ ESTY at each quarter a the City, and that a representation of TnE QUEEN was to accompany the ceremony. Such a circumstance did actually occur at a neighbouring village, where a girl was attired with as much splendour. as the place could muster, and had a Crown put on her-head that she might receive thedue honotirs of Royalty. The same sort of exhibition would probably have taken place at Oxford, if prepara tions had not been made to guard the city from further disorders. / The II EAns of IlonsEs, and the principal Authorities of the City met on Mon day morning, and issued a Notice about one o'clock, importing that no farther illumina tion, would be allowed. In the; course of the morning several carts loaded with laurels came into the City from various directions, and, but we hope the report is not true, one waggon load was said to have been sent by a Nobleman from a Giva&r HOUSE in the neighboUrhood. Not withstanding the Notice that had been issued, preparatiohs were observed to„be 'making in se veral houses during the course of the afternoon. On the other hand, the Authorities - were notidle, having sworn in three hundred Special Consta bles, and it is said that many of the Gownsmen laudably volunteered to act in that capacity. To wards dusk, numerous bodies of men and women entered the City from all points. The gates of the Colleges were all closed, but the Gownsmen were allowed to assist the Civil Power in pro tecting those inhabitants who were not disposed to obey the commands of the mob.—Between five and six o'clock the Proctors paraded through the City. At this period a few houses com menced lighting, but at the desire of the Proc tor several of them removed the candles. — In various parts, of. the City cries of "THE QU EEN " were now heard,- and on the in stant a vast body of the Gownsmen exclaimed " The KING for ever on every repetition of the former cry from the mob.—An attack was made on the hotie of a Gentleman in the High-street, near the Angel Inn, a great number of • his windows were broken, and the mob were proceeding to farther mischief, when the VICE-CHANCELLOR, Dr. HALL, came forward in front of Queen's College, and read the RIOT ACT in a firm and impressive manner. The ProctorS immediately proceeded to disperse the rioters, and to take the ring-leaders into cus tody:--Twelve or fourteen were immediately secured, and conveyed into Queen's College, where they were confined for the night. This measure had the effect in a great degree of intimi dating the mob, and prevented, of course, farther outrages to any great extent. The cries of " Town" from the Rioters, and of " Gown" from the other Parties, as either wanted assistance, were heard till long after midnight ; but the peace of the City was permanently secured by the pre vious arrival of a detachment of military, who were stationed within the gates of the Star Inn, and were not called 'upon to act, but were ready in case of necessity. On the following morning many of the Rioters who had been secur ed and confined during the night in several of the Colleges, were examined, and some of them were committed to the Castle. We are sorry to ob serve, that among them 'there were some who were of too respectable a description to be sus pected of taking any part in such disgraceful and dangerous proceedings. On Tuesday the Music Room was opened with a• grand Concert, which was to have taken place on Monday, but was prevented by these tumultuous occurrences. The Performers from London were chiefly Mrs. SAL moN, Master Mansu.m.i., and Mr. livivEs. A second Concert took place on Wednesday even ing. Both were extremely well attended,- and the Company were so delighted as to appear to wish for the repetition of every thing that had been heard. The first evening concluded with HINOEL'S, Anthem, " Zadoek, The Priest," and the second with the celebrated Chorus from HANDEL'S Athaliali— " Around let aeclaniations ring, " Bless the Taut.: CH u ucit and save THE KING." Our National Anthem was called for on each evening, and joined in zealously by every person present, with sympathetic loyalty. We ought not to conclude without paying a tribute of just praise to the Members - of the University, and the Magistracy of the City, for the wisdom, firmness, and moderation with which they conducted themselves during the whole of these alarming occasions.. The Earl of LIVERPOOL has issued Canis of invitation for a dinner-party, to take place at Fife House on Monday next. Yesterday, the Earl of WESTMORELAND enter tained a large party of the Cabinet Ministers with a dinner ; at his house in Grosvenor-square. FOR T HoLY.cutDER!:. . Mr. EinTon,=;--Though an j " ungoN • vned cayman, yet, as a member of our liberal, -tole.; ant, and cu►nmon sensical ChUrch, I cannotN6th told my humble mite of praise from the udging . Bishop of PErERII9ROUGH for the Judi-. 'lous y ingenious, and rational manner in which to has developed our Articles of Faith, distinct from - all metaphysical subtleties and evasions. Yet, though agreeiu fully with_ that pious Prelate, and, 1 hope, fully tiaderstanding his principles, I shall venture to make one or two observatioos ; first premising that I consider these principles as intimately combining common sense, sound reason, and pure philosophy with the revealed Truths of Christianity; With respect to the first Chapter, on RETiEMT . TION, I recollect once putting the question to a pious, learned, and clerical Parent, Whether the good and virtuous men amongst the Greek and Romans, who lived pfevious to CnnisT's coming. could be saved through him' " Child said he, '' consider it aibapviness that you know CHRIST died to redeem those to whom his word is given ! How far his righteousness may be in";. I fluted to those who' never heard his word, rains with COD t" The Bisho - p's - rational doctrine of Faith anti Good Works, in Chaps. 111. aid IV. once heard well illustrated, by an allusion to a man in a boat with. two oars :—" If- I," said the speaker, " am in a boat upon that bay, 'with . two oars, let me cajl one of them Faith, and the other Good Works. .If I . lay in Faith and pull With Good Works, I only pull my self round and round e wa, without ad vancing. If I lay in goo on d work y s, and pull with faith, I only' pull Myself round and round the other ‘w, yet advance not an inch. But if I pull With both oars, Faith and Good Works, I shall then advance to the pOint intended." On Predestination, Chap. VI., there will al ways be difference of opinion, as long as we, finite creatures, can only use finite words to ex press in ideas. Towards MAN, a progressive creature, Predestination supposes something ante cedent ; but towards GOD, whose 'WAS is, whose WILL et: I am that I am"—there is no an tecedency, no space between willing and doing. The decrees of GOD, appear .foreknozcledge to trkanbut, to an Infinite and Eternal Being, time and space are not even a point ! The.doctrine of the HOLY TRINITY in chap. IX., has too often been impugned by objectors, who declare it to be unphilosophical. To theta I shall recommend it-to read PLATO once more, when they will find him expressly to state that there is one Grand Infinite, bur that in it there are Three Irfnites all equal. For this expression, PLATO has never yet been accused of absurdity ; why then shall we daringly impute that to the Revelation which Goo has given us of the Divine Essence ?—Your's, KiNOW% SPORTING 'NI ELIACT' EMT. 131.1" TING-ROOM, Nov. 16, 1920. 5 to 1 nest Gustav - 1s 6 to Z Agst Trut DEUBY. • 1 19 to I ant Moral 20 to 1 agst Charm. 8 to 1 agst My Lady OAKS. 12 to 1 agst.

Mr. PEARSON, •Solicitor, states, that the indict ment for nigh Treason, -to which Mr. Justice BAILEY adverted on Monday last, is an indict ment against one Franklin alias Fletcher, intended to have been preferred by,. him for High Treasou, in endeavouring to excite the people to re bellion, and by force to subvert the Laws and Constitution of the Country. The overt acts upon which Mr. Pearson grounds his charge consist in having, during a period of three years, taken advantage of the agitated state of the public mind to post the most atrocious placards about the streets, during the night, previously to the holding of large public meet ings, and with having distributed at the Smith field, the Kennington, - the Spa-fields, the Pa lace-yard, and other Meetings, the most inflam matory and seditious hand-bills, addressed to the passions of the multitude, and calling upon them by force to endeavour to effect a change in the laws of the Country.

CURIOUS A rr a t ims - stos.----Yesterday after- noon, Mr. Omer, of Thomas 7 street, Commercial road, while reading in the ground parlour, was disturbed by a noise, as if a cat had got among the china on the side-board ; and on going to the' door, no person being in the parlour, he observ ed a youth "having his hand in _at the window, . the sash of which he had partly raised up, en deavouring, by means of a long wire crooked at the end' .to obtain a thermometer which lay on a table. lie walked cautiously across the room, and the thief • never once per ceived Mr. O. till he laid hold of him by the arm.
