THE LONDON JOURNALS. [DAILY EXTRACTS FROM -7 114 E MORNING_ PAPERS.) [Horning Post.] - The. K held a Council yesterday, when the Speech with which Parliament is this day to be prorogued by Commission was tam into consideration, and received the app; ohation of his ;Majesty. The next Session will commence rn t fig. .0,1 of Jarmare, when . the subject of the income ne et,,sarY to be granted to the Queen, under the circumstance tet her judicially pronounced degraded state, will be imine ireately entered upein, Will then her present income will he cos sinned. We have appropriated so great a portion of our col.;,uns this day to the forcible sentiments of our . Corre sPw,dents, that we deem nothing more necessal y at present that, to add a sample of the opinions which foreiviers (in coainom with ourselves) entertain of the factious " triumph," andaCiernsly called; which now disgraces this once mo - r..l atol loyal country;—" The offences of the Queen of Eng land (pays one of the Parisian Joiernaists) have been Li!e3 in all their notorious salemnity ; her guilt, established .upon prOofs unhameilytoo convincing, has been acknowledged lee the majority 01 the Peers, only •to obtain a more complete ti lump!) over reli, ion, morality, and human ju - stia-. Rejoice, inhabitants of London ! let your city blaze with illumina limes ! fill the air with shouts of triumph! You have now -proved to Europe, hat in your country social corruption has been sustained by numerical force and popular power ; you • have taught your wives and daughters that:-lewdness is not criminal in your eyes ; you have shewn to the human passions, that in your community, morality and_ justice have no longer the support of public opinion and liberty."—" It may not he amiss to observe," concludes this sensible writer, " that the abandonment of the Bill was partly owing tothe systematic op position wh,eli arrayed itself under the name of the interests of Moralitv,against the inistry,for having entered upon thiStrial. The Queen is guilty, said the Members of this Opposition ; but Ministers do wrong to try her,. therefore eve - will vote against the Bill.' Thus, for the interests of morality, you pronounce for the impunity of a crime which yott.acknow ledge."—li may not. be unnecessary. briefly to observe the Striking contrast - presented by the Whigs on this occasion to their conduct when in office.- 10 a Report then made by them on the conduct of our present virtuous Queen, they Pro nounced her 0)111,70911:etc Majesty guilty of gross impro prieties, not. only without. having heard her defence, but without leaving even informed her of what were the crimes laid to her charge ; whereas they now hesitate. to pronounce against her, although after an open, solemn, and impartial trial, she has been convicted of the heinous charges brought against her, even by the evidence of her own witnesses!— . With respect to ourselves, the Public will recollect, that on the contrary, when fourteen years ago a charge of child-birth was brought against her, we strenuniistrilefended her, be cause we were perSuaded the allegation_ was unfounded ;—on the present occasion, our conduct bas•necessarily been widely different, because we have all along been- possessed of the most damning proofs of her guilt. Our Readers will pardon us for this brief observation with respect to ourselves, which, we assure them, nothing but the illiberal allusions of some'of .out contemporaries could have induced us,ti, offer. [Morning Chronicle.] .. . . We understand that Mr. Brougham, as her Majesty's At torney-General, has given regular notice to the Lord Chan cellor and Lord Castlereagh, that the Queen means to - send down a Message to both Houses of Parliament this day. It cannot be imagined that, after such intimation, any attempt v.ill be made to evade discussion on the Message by the read ing of the - CoMmission to Prorogue the Parliament; nor Would it, indeed, be consistent with the duty which they owe to the Crown to proceed to the measure of a Prorogation until a suitable provision shall be made for the establishment art lier Majesty as Queen Consort. The_coostitutional course of jroeeeding would he by a Message from the Crown, calling. on them . , before they separate, to make such provision, and which, we trust, his Majesty's Ministers will have the pru dence to advise. The important case of Sir Francis Burdett came on yes terday. Mr. Blackburtie res umed his address, aced he was followed by Mr. Evans. The Court took time to advise be fore coining to a decision. Sir Francis has•so completely es tab!isbed his right to a new trial, that we confess we are under little uneasiness with respect to the decision of the Court. The only case which favoars the monstrous doctrine that publication is not es sential to libel, is that of the King against Beare: and the only thing with the semblance of ar gument which has now been urged in support Of it is, that Lord Chief Justice Holt, - to Whom we are indebted for it, was a zealous friend to liberty. Without entering on the charac ter of Lord Holt, we may observe, that if his doctrine were to he, a law, the condition of Englishmen would really be as pitiable as that of the Spaniards muter their late Inquisition. It. would at once give rise to a system of espionage and em bezzlement, aganist.which no mats could consider himself safe. Even if the Government of the Country should disdain to have recourse to unfair meat,' to coin persons who were dis agreeable to them, there are those who might be less sem pohius. The Society fdr the Suppiession of Vice, for instance, has been more than once accused of displaring a good deal of what the author of the Night thoieghts calls The carst ungodliness of zeal ;" and with occasionally " interfering ,sontewhat more with the private ciincerns of individuals than is consistent : wit fa pro pi iet y. Such a Society, not content With the success of their efforts against- published on the principle of de stroying the fruit id the hod, and , judging that the end justifies the means, might perhaps exert themselves to get hold of such poison as is concealed in private reinisitaries. We are swished, however. that the Judges will never declare this to be law. The manner in which the merits of Lord Holt, as a friend to liberty, have been dwelt on, has, we know, given rise to apprehension 4 but we consider this merely in the light of a generous endeavour to prevent conclusions injurious to the memory of that Judge, (runt being drawn from the tyrannical doctrine to which he gave his sanction. The manly spirit which has been displayed by the Bar on this occasion, is above all praise. Mr. Bliwkhitrne and Mr. Evans are reported to have commented with great severity on the manner in which Mr. Justice Best sunamed up the evidence. The (ureter indignantly exclaimed—" Is this the conduct of a Judge ? It is • his duty to protect and see that no advantage is taken of a defendant, instead of perverting facts, and putting the very worst construction that any trans action will admit of." It gave us great pleasure to hear, that this Judge, who lately displayed such sensibility to the abuse of the Bur, did not allow himself to he in the least ruffled in his own case, and even declared to M. Blackburne, " you have not said any thing to offend ine." Whatever may be thought of the conduct of this Judge, there can he now but one "pinion with respect to the Bar—and that is, it no longer requires the protection of the. Bench from the attacks of ca lumny. Never'disl its independence shine forth with more Lustre than of late ; and so long as it contains men who have the heart to tread in the steps of a Donning and an Erskine, it may securely bid defiance - to all' the shafts of calumny.— [Nem Times.] • A very foolish and vulgar error exists, that the voluntary attendance of the Queen at St. Paul's, is like the formal and authoritative procession of the King, thither, to offer up a public thanksgiving for any national blessing.' The Queen has no sort of right or authority whatever to direct or order any kind of ceremony, touch less any variation its the proper, Church Service of the day. Nay, any clergvinan would he punishable by the . law of the. land, who, on pretence of any dirt (ruin her, should at all add to r diminish the coct.. mon ordinary Service of the day prescribed by the Rubric. The King, as Head of the Church and State, has lawful power and authority to order all these things,' with the advice of his Council. The Qaren nrav certainly go to. St. Paul's- - as any private individual may gd thither, to take part in the appointed devotions of the day, avid as Wednesday is by the rules of the Church a day of fasting and •humiliation, it may be very proper that, in her'Majesty's.present unhappy condition sine should choose that day fur her attendance on public worship. Her Vice-Chamberlain, who'probahly knows but little of Ecclesiastical matters, talks of her going " to returns thanks for her late deliverance from her enemies." For such a purpose Wednesday would rather he wild day; but the more important remark is, that neither on -Wednes day nor any other day can she be indulged with any set form of thanksgiving. Any private person mar, to be tre., at any , time, offer up praise's and thank - sgivings to 'tine Almighty in the mode prescribed by the Corn s:non Prayer Book, and the Qttever can do no more.. , to introducing a political controversy• into the Prayer's nf the Church, - it cannot for a moment hr. tolerated either in the Queen, or in an other person. Two important questions' etew, one affecting principally the Queen, the other the In babitaats of t.re Metropolis. • It is for her Majesty's solemn emisciint ions reflection whether her motive for thus resorting to St Punt's ,is purely and sincerely religious. Let her not deceive herself. She cannot deceive the People of England: •er condrief and her language is before thins. It is sworn (Evidence, p. 805) that her Miijesty has gone to Roman CM tholic Churches wills her Courier Bergaari, and has there /alien on her knees ,by his sides, and that she has declared she intended to hare Masses said. for the soul of Bergami's father. This was in Italy. Since she• has been in England she has had a professed Unitarian to act as her Chaplain. In the' answers which she has given to Addresses, she has most scan dalously, falsely, and wickedly reviled the whole Clergy of the Church of England, - and professed her dissatisfaction at its doctrines—and yet she now proposes to resort to that Church, to join in its devotions, and to submit herself humbly and re verently'to its-Ministers. Is this sincerity or is it hypocrisy ? If the latter, a more odious piece of wickedness, or one More caletilated to shock every serionsChristian, cannot well be de vised. Be the Queen blameable or not, it is certain that the Peace of the City, and the Property and Lives of the Citizens will be - placed in imminent hazard, by " that assemblage of vast - numbers of persons," which her Vice-Chamberlain himself thinks will be collected. The fact doubtless is, that the persons who have given the Queen this pernicious advice, mean and intend to intimidate the Citizens by the power of a mob. They act• on the same principle that Hunt acted upon in collecting his mobs, and when we are told thatthe common City Police is sufficient to pre - serve the Peace, we beg to ask, how the peace of the.Ctty was pre served by Mr. Alderman Wood at the time of the Spa-fields Riots.? Mr, A:dermal, Thorp's Mayoralty has already been disgraced by shameful outrages;. he thought fit to sanction an illumination, and be now thinks fit to sanction a procession. Let bins beware of the consequences. The respe..table inha bitants will do well to pi otest formally against this measure s . and then if he still perseveres,-and the peace shonl4 be yin hated, the Court of King's liench will teach bins his duty by the process of Criminal InforMation. [The Times.] We learn, with extreme regret, that the wicked and illegal exclusion: of her Majesty's name'- from the Liturgy, which has been the occasion of so lowering the dignity of the throne, and exposing the person who sits on it to so much obloquy, appears now likely to produce, if possible, a worse effect upon our National Church. We hear of something like a determination to make a secession from the purest and most excellent form of worship established in this kingdom, till the wrong dune, not less to the Liturgy itself than' to , her whose name has been excluded front it, is redressed. To what length do Ministers mean to carry on this persecution, and what perilous conseentences may we not apprehend from whatls called re-action ? The Bishop of London preach ed a sermon, on. Sunday last, for the benefit of the Padding ton sehmil charity! and we leant that adisapprobation' of his Lordship's :cootict was marked by the circumstance of several of the congregation quitting the Church before the sermon commenced. This proceeding, however we may blame it, is still only a personal slight ; but none eJti .con template the injury which will be operated on the morals of the Nation at large, should any considerable portion absent themselves, through disgust, at this important crisis, from their Parish Churches, aml turn aside to sectarian worship.— Our venerable' Eitablisliment may be shaken to the centre ; and such-a itt!schieftis, - We hear, loudly threatened. We feel more than- we,can express at the part which the Bishopi have taken In the bite unhappy inquiry; and really are not less ashamed at the manner in which their Loreships sustained their opinions, than dissatisfied with the sinister choice which they made of them ; .but we are still in.hopes that the Paro chial C'ergy will, by their general character,retain their flocks at home, and keep them from wandering into other folds.— A respectable Clergyman of the Church of England proposes as a substitute for the Malignant omission of the Queen's name in the Liturgy, that the Clergy call upon their congre gations to pray for her in the shirt address which precedes the sermon. What we sincerely pray and hope for, is the re stitution of her Majesty's name to its proper place, as the first step towards healing the divisions which exist in both Church and State. It is expected that some short conflict 'will take place to day; before the prorOgation of Parliament; hut whether that to,,fliet may be oratorical or physicalwhether of lungs or of legs—we know not. We summon attention, however, to the following Nets :—that, after the House of Lot ds has been oc cupied since, June last7i.n the examination of the-conspiracy against the Queen, the consideration of that affair is to be suddenly snatched away from the Commons by the intervention of the Black Rod;. the Lower House is not to be softened to speak on the subject—and that afier the House had, like an importunate - creditor, been sundry times dismissed unsatisfied — he amount of the debt not being ready—and directed to call again; The new train of f,pepitions against her Majesty must not be impeded or interrupted till they have tilitain , tl consist ency, a junction of the now scattered parts of the old plot hav ing been uticet.etl. yt he: her the friends of her Majesty will obtain time to throw in a few words in her defence, we knOw not ; the attempt will no d o ubt be made. Nut what a fearful potency there must, be in her cause, which must thus be kept in abeyance and thrust off, till force is gathered to resist it ! fulfilling the engagement—to seek 'only for trpth ; ;. and by no means to endeavour to op press the Queen by, power, or to elude her by chicane !-- 'flee genctar i 'irpinion''. now is, that Mr. Calming will ynit the'Mitilsters. Whatever of uncertainty there may be in this affair we trust is' ill out knowledge, and not in t h at Gentleman's coot se of action; for the motives cannot be nearly connterbalanced where there is all the difference in the result of the choice that exists between honour and its op posite. The Country never can forget--neither, we hope, will Mr. Canning wish to forget it—the important service which he rendered to IlveQueen, by - declaring her, front his knowledge, the " life, grace, and ornament of polished so ciety."—lf we may subjoin any notice of foreign concerns, which at other limes would be important enough, we should mention that the piorogat ion speech will probably make some allusion to foreign affairs Ministers having received a mes senger front Tronpatt, the new seat of Congress, within the last 36 hours.—(Thiii.) [The Public Ledger.] The following is an extract of a letter from Corfu •--rr We have now here Nlaignols, who has been for some time one of the agents of Ali, and who is now in the service of the suc cessor of the Pacha. It appears that he is employed to-treat with the Commissariat of the English to obtain n►unitio,ts of war. This agent has confirmed all the details published re garding Ali. The fortress in which he is shut up is guarded on all sides, and is. bombarded night- and day. Sonic sol diers who have escaped from it, have mentioned, that it is the firm resolution of Ali to blow it up, by firing the maga zines."

[Boiash Press.] 'This day both Houses of Parliatuent meet, its pursua - nce of the terms of their respective adjournments, hut it is as cer tainly resolved by the Ministers that neither House shall be permitted to enter upon the diseussitur of public 'affairs.— Some Member, indeed, stay ask a question' respecting the refusal of a Palace to t he Queen—respecting the extent of the establishment which will be proposed to Parliament fur her accommodfAion—respecting the nature of the note presented by Lord Stewart to the Sovereigns at Troppau—respecting the causes and object of assembling a large British squadron in the Bay of Naples—respecting the state of our relations with our old ally the King of Portugal, or many other points of foreign or domestic concei ti, which at this moment ob viously requite the immediate interference - of Parliament ; hut no time will he granted for receiving an answer even to any one of these gnat ions, for the Black Rod brooks no de lay, and, itcappea,ance alone would, .with provoking indif ference, cut short the most interesting detail of fact;, or the finest flourish of oratory. It is a very unusual circumstance for the Ministersof the Crown to evince any disti ust of Par liament, or an unwillit guess to confide matters to the wisdom of assemblies which have hitherto in so many instances.re paid the confidence of the Government with interest. Certain it is that in the House of Lords the discussion of the Queen's case made sad havoc among parties. The Ministers on that occasion experienced something of the vieissit Odes that attend political friendships, and saw many of their stoutest adhe rents turn upon them in the day of trial. In the House of Commons they failed altogether in their endeavonrs to obtain the sanction of a majwitytotheir , turictutstitutional proceed ings..

The Speech wilt be delivered by Com- micsion. The Inhabitant Householders sithe Borough of Southwark assembled yesterday in their Town Hall, to express their sen_ timents upon the .proceedings a;:ainst the Queen, and tttsir opinion generally upon the- conduct of his Majesty's Minis ters. It was resolved without opposition, that an Address should he presented to the Queen, congratulating her Ma jesty upon her triumph ; and a Petition was p►epared to the House of Commons, praying foV an inquiry into the conduct of the Ministers. It was ►ngeniously contrived fo stuff Par liamentary Reform into the Pe:i t ion, this subject having about as much connexion with the proceedings against the Queen, as it would have with a voyage of discovery to the North Pole. To agitate the question of Parliamentary Reform at the pre sent moment, and to couple it thus with the Queen's case, is singularly ungraciOus ; it implies disapprobation of the con duct of the House of Commons with reference fo this particu lar snhject, while in fact it merits the applause of every one who professes to be an enemy to the late proceedings. Al derman Wood alluded to the arrival of several witnesses on behalf of the Queen, who, had they reached town previous to the close of the defence, would have established beyond a doubt the existence of the conspiracy against the honour and dia:nity of her Majesty. We trust that their good servi-es will not be lost ; the questions of the conspiracy is still open, and ❑►ust be probed to the boiloin.—,./fritl.) [Morning Herald.] , Parliament meets this day, and will, it is understood, be prorogued for two months, then to meet fur the dispatch of business. There is hut one point—of the deepest import ance at this moment—upon which it is to be hoped Ministers will give some explanation—the foreign relations,and policy of the country. The Naval armament in the Bay of Naples is considered by some a decided demonstration in favour of the Austrian movements. But we will not credit, without stronger grounds, that they have rashly taken a course which would fill the public mind with, consternation. Some of the Paris Papers have the effrontery to attribute the depression of the Government paper to the suppression of the Monks! (these industrious and valuable members of the community) and to the application of the dormant, or rather abstracted, wealth of the convents to liquidate the just claims of the public creditor upon the State !! This will not prevail —the Inquisition will never. revive, however ardent the wishes of the Spanish bigots and - Parisian Ultras. English readers have not, perhaps, in general any idea of what the French Ultra-Royalist Writers really are. - What will be their sur prise, or rather disgust, when they learn that these cla mourers for the iron fanaticisM of Louis XIV. and the hor rors of the Holy Inquisition., are for the most part cast off instruments of thelitionapartean despotism,—men notorious ly infidel in their principles and profligate in their lives, sonic of whom are renegade priests, who made their court to the Revolution by avowed atheism and studiously unveiled con cnhinage, and again made their peace with the return of so cial .decornm, by flinging the- cloak of marriage over them selves and their accomplices in debauchery—Such are many of the men who so. piteously complain in the Paris Journals, that all religion and piety are banished from Spain, because the late Revolotion—because " the tiger-ass," as a celebrated man has called bigotry,'' has bad its teeth all drawn, and its claws drawn off to the very quick," by the late Spanish Re , volution.—(ltid.) PROVINCIAL JOURNALS. The Leeds Intelligencer, to which we are in. dcbted fur the account of the Illumination in that Town inserted in our Paper of Monday, contains the following perti [tent comme►►ts on the motives and pretensions of the presen OPPOSITION • " And why are the present Ministers to be displaced ? Be cause they had the courage, in the face of popular clamour of every kind, and in defiance of the most intemperate abuse — the most atrocious calumny—to commence, and continue to its close, an iuquiry into the conduct of the Queen—conduct which rumour had so loudly bruited -from one end of Europe to the other, as disgraceful and degrading—nay, even crimi.- nal ! The result of this inquiry has been, that even the Whigs are constrained to admit, that " many gross improprieties " have been incontestibly proved;" an admission that at once exculpates Ministers, anti seals their own condemnation in the mind of every moral, religious, and loyal man. We certainly should have been }setter pleased, had Ministers shewn - more firmness, and sent the .801 to the House of. Commons ; but they had a choice of difficulties ; and if they thought the pub lic tranquillity would be sooner restored, by letting the Bill drop, whilst the purposes of justice were answered by't he so lemn declarations of a large majority of the Peers, that they believed the Queen's guilt, it is only " candid" to give them credit for puniness of motive, however we may'dissent from the pr,priety of their conduct in this respect. But what have the Whigs dune to render their return to office either desira ble or advantageous to the Nation ? Are we to look for their claiMs in the events which transpired attiring the administra• tion of " all the talents;" is the want of principle, the in consistency, the incapacity, the mean vacillating policy they then displayed, the ground upon which they again demand admission to the councils of the King-? Or are we to consult the annals of the war, in which their anti-British sentiments, their desponding fears, their gloomy forebodings, and dismal anticipations are recorded ; and in 'which, too, the most cons- plete and overwhelming exposure of their pretensions to the characters of Statesmen and Politicians, is contained ? If the Whigs do not wish us to refer to this period of their political career, would they have us advert to their treatment of the King, when on assumi 11 4 the reins of regency, he disappointed their ambitious hopes, t . sy refusing to surrender to them the uncontrolled direct ion of public affairs ? Can any thing justify theobloquy with which his public conduct and private character have been since assailed both in the speeches of their leading orators,and in thepuhlications which have issued from the press under their influence? Do they think that t his disgraceful proce.- dure has given theni a claim to the favour of the Sovereign, or the affection of his people? Or we are to consult the occorrences of recent years, and look for their pretensions in their coquet ting with the radicals, and then denouncing their schemes, at the same time that they strenuously opposed every measure proposed by Ministers fur the purpose of protecting the peace of the country, and frustrating the machinations of traitors Or shall we find them in that most disgraceful proceeding, when they outraged morality, and the Laws, by rewarding a blasphemer, and libeller ; and thus opening the way for that inundation of infidelity and sedition which has beets poured upon us front the seditious Press ? " It the public are satisfied with the above public services of the Whigs, why then the best thing they can do is, to com pel the King to take, as his Ministers, men who have violated the dearest ties of friendship and of honour in their treatment of the Sovereign, and who have displayed on all occasions, an inveterate antipathy to that policy which has been the preservation of the Empire from the horrors of anarchy and licentiousness. If, on the contrary, the English People are determined to uphold the honour of their coun try, and to maintain that high and distinguished station to which the policy of the Immortal Pitt, as pursued by the pre sent Ministers, have advanced us—then they will oppose their steady voice to :be tumultuous clamour of a misguided po pulace, and prove their attachment to their King, by defeat ing the machinations of his enemies. " For this is the moment when Loyalists boldly Should stand by their King, their Religion and Laws; Sedition should never he combated coldly,- 'Tis languor alone can endanger our cause. Whilst the factious are blindly, or basely employ i d,' 'Gainst the Laws which their fathers in honour enjoy'd ; Let the Loyal exert. every voice, every nerve, For the land they adore, and the Monarch they serve." B O X I N G. The Match between Harry Noss the Gypsey, and Thomp.son, the Berkshire-man, both acknowledged good men, under twelve stone, which was to have taken place at Hedgley, within a few miles of Dot king, took place in a pad-. dock belonging to a Mr. Mills ' at Faendou, ten miles feuw the appointed spot, the boxers baring been drawn thither by an extra subscription purse of 201. in addition to the 401. they fought for. - Moss was seconded by another Gypsey, and Thompson by Naves, a navigator. Betting sto 4 upon the Gypsey. In the fist round Thompson bad his cork drawn in a brisk rally, in return for which he was Hoofed by a chance body hit. 2. In their eagerness for assault each missed intended hits, and closed,w when Thompson had Nfoss's head safely tinder the left arm, in a manner in which Randal would have given him a sufficient dose; hut the Gypseyslippeil out of his adversary's clutches without harm, and they broke from each other. By this time exertion had tarried them, and they worked more de liberately- A severe round was fought, anti it was difficult to say which had best. Both fell weak. The round lasted 17 minutes. 3. At it they went again in hull dog fashion ; bitting was the order of the round,-and Thompson ca,t out a front tooth. A severe rally ended the round, by the Gypsey being knocked down with a misty blow on the left side : this blow settled the battle, which had now lasted 22 minutes. Tt►e Gypsey came to the set atch doutted-up seven other rouNls. In the 11th round nature had turned Moss up, and he was dead to time, and lost the fight in 37 minutes. It was a reirtning fight, and if fought over again the Gyp icy would have a right to win it. ILLUMINATIONS, &c. IN TILE COUNTRY. [EXTRACTS FROM PRIVATE LETTERS.] 44 NORWICH, Nov. 21.—The illumination for our innocent Queen'was set on foot by the same busy Junto, in this place, who are ever forward in signing Requisitions for Reform Petitions, &c. and who prejudged her case ere it was inquired into by the House of Peers. This grand spec' tack, announced a week before hand, took place last night, under circumstances as little injurious to persons and property as could be expected, considering the RABBLE R013,T that constituted the triumphant procession by which our streets were , paraded. Fear of windows being broken by the-' ' truly loyal' friends of her Gracious Majesty, cer" tainly contributed much to the waste of tulloWi and fear of preparations made by the Magistrate to preserve the peace of• the city, induced al political white-washers to assume the virtue or forbearance, which they evidently had not intend.. ed to practice. A Magistrate, for being forward to support the necessary measure of swearing hi special constables, was threatened with assassi" nation by a most cowardly villain. During the progress of the Guardians of Female Puril.Y r through our streets, a Gentleman stauding at his own door had a small cannon-ball thrown at him, which lodged in a window of his house, voices at the same time issued from the throng of 4 Cl--- 11 him, shoot him,' and a pistol was at the same time discharged by one of the rascals nearhim . Late in the evening the Sheriffs were obliged re interfere with their posse, in order to de' feat the attempts of a riotous multitude, re whern some kind friend to freedom and paled had offered fuel for a bonfire. A few will" dows were broken in different parts of this et" tensive place ; bnt, on the whole, the Queens friends were too well watched to be able to de any serious injury to those whom the demagogues' are so assiduous in pointing out as lIER enemies, to the vengeance of the sovereign people: There were not more than four or five transparencies exhibited deserving any notice. The Queen %rasa of course, the subject of them all, being a charac' ter now very easily seen through. A consider' able proportion of the houses which were lighted up, are known to have been so distinguished hi the occupiers for any thing rather than a joyfr4 sympathy with the occasion. On the other hand, the better half of - the town On . every sense of the word) refused, by even the addition of a rush' light, to aid the factious object of keeping the ilt": norant multitude in the dark. As to theproce.ssivila with its ' beggarly account' of flags, green bags, and placards, preceded by ragged little torch bearers, and composed of the lowest of our lam' pulace, it was a display of unadulterated vulg' city and blackguardism, with scarcely an , viduat appearance of respectability to mitigate the feelings of ridicule and contempt 'excited at the paltry paraphernalia. Suffice it to say, that even their Committee of Management were asharty ed to 4 ' march through Coventry with thena- - "' that's flat." The projectors of this worthy refs' bration of a Radical triumph offer common sense and common decency, have been taught, that their glory in such a cause must be confined to their own shame ; and that, though they mai deceive the weak and alarm the timid, they will never succeed in forcing the spirited and staunch supporters of Constitutional Monarchy (with which this ancient city,thank God, stillabounds) into even a seeming acquiescence with their chievous designs, nor into the slightest submis" sion to their audacious menaces." " BRISTOL. Nov. 20.—The abandonment of the Bill of Pains and Penalties against the Qtteetta has excited universal surprise here, after the complete and satisfactory evidence that has heel adduced in support of it. I a:n happy to inforas you, that the Queen has few partisans in Bristol which was fully exemplified during the recent illumination; for, with some trifling exceptionsf it was the mere refuse of the town that lighted siPa presenting altogether a most dismal appearance. The Address from the Inhabitants of St. James" 4 Parish, in this City, to the 'King,' has been mt# numerously and respectably signed, and is abiut to be followed by several others of the same nature." 46 YORK, Nov. 20.—Our friends here have been obliged to illuminate ; we sent a depots` tiou to wait upon the Lord Mayor that our pro' perty might be preServed in case we did not comply with the will of the mob, but as no meano were adopted for that purpose, we all lighted up. The paper to 0,2 Lord Mayor was signed hi above 160 heads of respectable families. Thus, you see, there is yet a spark of loyalty among 4 us."—( New Times.) EDINBURGII.—The devastation committed bf the mob on Friday night, when viewed ou Satre day, was truly disgraceful. Besides the place which we mentioned in our last, as having suffer-. ed from their fury, there were a number of houses; on the west side of James's-square, and in Eder street, the windows of which were literalif driven in with stones. Abercromby-plate suffered severely, and scarcely a house in Iti nover-street but' bore marks of popular vengeance. The damage sustained, we understand, amowits, to a very considerable sum. In order to prevesnii a recurrence of the scenes of Friday night, ti e Lord Provost and Magistrates, on Saturti;ls night, called outall the military and civil force jo the city, which paraded the through the princi" pal streets until a late hour, but no disturbarare of any kind took place. As it appeared that 1 mob were led on by some miscreants, the ,Lord Provost and Magistrates have issued a Pro' clamation offering a reward for the apprehen sion of the ringleaders.—(Edinburgit, Courant, Nov. 20.) • MAREIED.
