Feeling forthe:hoticamof My insulted country, and_ for lily native town in par ticular, I. am induced to request that you will do it the common justice to contradict the erroneous report, which has appeared in several of the Daily Papers, of an Address having been sent to THE QUEEN from the INHABITANTS OF IPSWICH and its environs; for I assure you, that the Pub- lican, who is said to have been honoured with an audience in presenting this atrocious libel to her Majesty, was, from the bestinformation I can ob tain. upon the spot, not only the author but the person who moved and seconded it at. his ale house, which is well known to be the common rendezvous of the few desperate Radicals who have lately infested this neighbourhood ; and at whose house he had industriously collected about thirty low mechanics, his friends and.companions, to assist him in this audacious undertaking ; particular account of which was very properly given in that respectable_ Paper, The Ipswich Journal, of the 2d instant. As this man must be personally known to Mr. Woon, from having been Clerk to a brewer of this tow,n, who is an intimate acquaintance of Mr. l'oon's, who, it is said, lately introduced him to }TER MAJESTY, I should presume the worthy Alderman (if truly the friend of THE QUEEN) would have, experienced no difficulty in discoveripa ' this gross and fraudulent imposition, and, would have prevented,rather than have pro moted the unpardonable insult which has been , so scandalously practised upon HER MAJESTY; who, in receiving an obscure Ale-house Address, has been led to believe that it came from the inha bitants of 'this ancient and loyal town, among whom, however, after much inquiry, I have been unable to discover a single individual who signed it, the Chairman, who first poposed; seconded, and signed the said Address, alone excepted. FRIEND OF TRUTH, 4nd a Lover of Justice. THE QUEEN. The Churchwardens of Saint Botolph Without, Aldgate, Middlesex, attended yesterday morning at Brandenburgh House, accompanied by the mover and seconder of the resolutions, and the vestry-clerk, to know when her MAJESTY would be pleased to receive the Address from that pa rish. They were received with the greatest po liteness by Lady ANN HAMILTON, and were informed that her MAJESTY was graciously pleased to appoint Monday next at two o'clock, to receive the same. Addresses to be presented at Brandenburgh House on Monday, the 85th, at one o'clOck : Cripplegate Vard Within, Farringdou Ward Without, Paddington Parish, Spitalfielde Parish.

Address has been presented to her MAJESTY, from the United Incorporations of Mary's Chapel, of the City of Edinburgh " TO • HER ExcELLENT MAJESTY CARMINE, OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT•BICITAIN AND IRELAND, QUEEN. " The dutiful and loyal'Address of the United Incorporations . of Mary's Chapel, of the City of Edinblrgh:— • " We, the United Incorporations of Weights, Masons, and six other Trades incorporated with them, commonly knotvn hy the name of the United Corporation of Mary's Chapel, of the City of Edinburgh, would most humbly approach your Majesty, with our cordial congratulations on your Majesty's safe return to your subjects of the United Kingdom. " We at the same time beg to express our sincere condo lence with your Majesty on the loss which has been sustained, during your absence, by your Majesty and the nation, in the death of our late renterable Sovereign; .and of her, on whom the fondest hopes of the country were conferred. In the one your Majesty lost a kind father and protector; in the other,_a dutiful and affectionate daughter; and, in the two, were bereaved of all the comforts which, out of those arising from the tin e e great relations of life, have ever fallen to the lot of your ) , lajesty. " It is a principle of natuial justice, that innocence is pre— sumed, till the contrary be established. " Certain charges, we are aware, hare lately been .made against your Majesty, in which the honour of yourself, of our gracious Sovereign the King,and the nation, is deeply concern ed. In any circumstances, we would act upon the principle which we have stated. In the present, we not only do so, hut recollecting that charges of a . similar nature, formerly brought against your Majesty, were, after investigation, found to he groundless, we indulge the confident hope that a ,:milar re sult awaits those presently advanced. Whiie we strongly sympathize with your Majesty in the want which at the pre sent moment you must feel tram the toss to which we have alluded, we trust your Majesty will find that your conti dence in the British nation has not been misplaced. " We strongly feel the indignities and neglects which, an tecedent to investigation, have been offered to your Majesty. The manner in which your Majesty was lately allowed to find your way to the 'country, of which you arc the Queen, forms a striking cola; ast to the splendour, with which your tirst arrival in this kingdom was accompanied, while we are una ware of any established difference in your claims to respect, and attention, except what arises from the disappointment I of hopes which you then might reasonably indulge : and an' honourable acquittal from all the charges which have been brought against you, i and investigated. " Signed by our two Deacons in oar naive, and by our appointment, and our Incorporation Seal appended, in our Hall of Mary's Chapel, in the City of Edinburgh, this 22d day of August, 1820?' To which her MAJESTY returned the follow- in; Answer : • • • The United Incorporations of Wrights and Masons, and six other trades, commohly known by the name of the United Incorporations of Mary's Chapel, in the City of 'Edinburgh; will accept my unfeigned thanks for this affectionate Address. " I feel the must unhesitating assurance that the present conspiracy against my . honour and my rights will experience the Late of its predecessors; that it will leave my reputation unsullied; and bring disgrace only on the contrivers of the plot, with all its subordinate " My life will furnish a singular example of the native strength of truth and innocence.. These have been my prin cipal support against a host of enemies ; and of enemies, too, armed with all the power's of a mighty State; furnished with unlimited supplies of money, and assisted by a degree of cor rupting influence such as no Government ever possessed be- fore. But this enemy, so vast in might, and so unbounded in his means, has been vanquished by the force of truth, assist ed by the liberty of the press. It is the press by which the sym- • pathies of the people have been most powerfully excited, and by which myriads of friends in every part of the kingdom have been called forth to protect my interests and to advo cate my rights. I strenuously exhort and earnestly request » ty friends in . the north, as well as in the south, never to lose sight of this truth—that Britons can never be enslaved while the press is free. Public opinion, which is a new power in states, and which is a salutary check upon every other power, owes its origin to the liberty of the press; and it is impossible for 'one.to survive the other, or for liberty to exist when both are I 'Arstroyeu.., 1 1 0 E It ti srAtizAs FOR MIAId: While I upon thy hosotn lean, • AA gate , lulu thine eyes, turn frutu•sotrows that•tikvii bred Tu thwie which 3* , .!1 may Nib I think on thy u Airing truth, • And faster flies my tears; I mark thy waning ruse of yoOthi And cannot hideluy fears.

COVENT-GARDEN.—The Beggar's 'Opera in.: . troduced Miss GREENE; front' thb Dublin Stage, at this Theatre last night in the character of Polly. Report was highly in her favonr, in Dublin, and her performance altogether on this occasion jus tified her reputation. She was, however, evident ly under some degree of timidity, which restrain ed her powers. .Her person is pleasing ; she possesses a good voice, and also acts. with spirit and feeling. She was encored in some of the airs, and received great applause throughout. Mr. T. COOKE, from Drury-lane Theatre, per formed the part of Macheath very respectably. Mrs. KrmoLE, as usual, did ample justice to the pareof Lucy. GREENE, in the afterpiece Of A Roland for an Oliver, confirmed the favoura ble opinion of the audience on her merits as an Actress. AYMARKET.—The Duenna was well repre sented last night at this Theatre. BR A RAM ex erted all his powers in Carlos. Miss R. CO RRI, as Clara .? gave the songs with great musical skill. —A Mr. GRAY performed the part of Antonio, but did not display an adequate portion of mu sical power. Mr. J. RUSSELL was very success ful in the character of Isaac Mendoza. SADLERS' WELLS.-Mr. HOWARD PAYNE, ge nerally styled The American Roscius, who is now the Conductor of this Theatre, last night brought forward a Melo-drama in three Acts, entitled The Robbers; or, the Fatal Oath, found ed on the celebrated play written by ScnlLLEft, but by no means in its original-form calculated for the English Stage. The fable is so well known that we need not detail it. The altera tions made'by Mr. PAYNE are very judicious, as he has softened all those pretences of natural jus tice by which robbers, like those in the Beggar's Opera, attempt to palliate and defend their viola tions of the law, and plunder of property. Charles, the Hero of the piece, last night was performed by Mr. PAYNE in so able and impressive a manner as to exckte.gurprize that his talents have not secured him a station on Patent Boards. The piece was rendered interesting by the general merit of the Acting, and the beauty of the Scenery, and it expqrienced so favourable a reception, as to pro mise a successful run.

When it is triumphingly asked, as a proof of total innocence, "why don't you bring proofs Of Adultery during the last three years?" it re:. minds us of the unfortunate Ilibernian whop being tried for a robbery committed ten years before, asked, why they did not try him for his burglaries during the other nine ?

A Gentleman observing that the Whigs. were great friends to Borough Occasionalty—an Irish Member added, with a sigh, " Yes, I know too well that they like to borrow occasionally ! " I. O. N. LEGAL AVIT.—We frequently hear of strange jokes being cut in the Irish Courts ; and it should seem that our own lawyers are beginning to fol low the facetious ekatnple of their lively brethren. how some of them succeed, may partly be gag tiered from the annexed statement :—At the late Somerset assizes, in the case of Pod v. Tolson * (which was an action to recover the full charge Of: 3531. for thirty-five wedding dresses supplied by, the plaintiff to the daughter of a Major Tolson,} it was remarked by Mr. Adams, that he Omni/ much like to see the Learned Serjeant (Pell) hr. one of the said:wedding dresses ! Upon this the Learned' Serjeant observed, that though he was: exceedingly fond of a suit, it was a suit of ann. ther description.!--4The Judge (Mr. Justice Bur rough) subsequently stopped Mr. Williams,, who was reciting the items of the bill, and ex. claimed, " Mr . . Williams, Mr. Williams! you have left out the petticoat!" (This sally of the Judge caused much laughter in the Court.) Mr. Williams replied, "Ile was sorry to have dose so ; and hoped his Lordship and his learned friends would do hiM - the justice to believe, that he never did, when he had an opportunity, leave a petticoat untouched."—(Renewed laughter:) REMARKABLE CANNON.-At Kubberpore na Theel, in India, there is a cannon 213 inches long, 66 inches round the muzzle, and 18 inches round the calibre.—it has five, and had, ori ginally, six equidistant rings, by which it was lifted up. This gun is called by the natives Jaun. Kushall, or the destroyer of life, and its casting and position are attributed to the' deotas or divinities, though • its almost obliterated Per• sian inscriptions- declare its formation by hu man means. .But what is most extraordinary about it is, that two peepul trees have grown both cannon and carriage into themselves.-- Fragments of the iron, a spring, one of the -Undies, and part of the wood-work, protrude from between the roots and'bodies of these trees, but the' trees alone entirely support the gun, one of the rings of which, and half of its whole length, are completely hid between and inside 'their bark and trunks. •A more curious sight, or a cannon more firmly fixed, though by the mere gradual growth of two trees, cannot well be imagined. The Indians assert that it was only' once fired, and sent the. ball twenty-four miles. .
