The following is a Copy of the Address, and Answer of his Royaillighness , • • " Jo his Royal Iligii.-zess the Prince qf Wales, Regent of the United _Kingdom (y . Great Britain and Ireland. - • " The bumble,lurid , and dutiful Address of the • Lord Mayor, 'Aldermen, and Cullman:is of th e City of Cond on i n Coanuou Council -assembled. ' '" May it yea:.s . c. -. ,vour.Roy a l cc W e hi s Majesty s most dutiful and loyal S'ubjects, the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and:Commons of the City of Loudon in Common Council assembled, present ourselves before your Rtiyal Highness to offer Our zealous and heartfelt congratu lations on the circumstance of the'signature of 4 Treaty of Peace with the United States of-Ainerica. , : - •Wr consider this event as the fortunate and desirable termination of that prolonged series u political calamities, which, whatever may have been th e i r causes, o r in whateverdegree they were unavoidable, have at various periods of their disastrous course, fi ll ed his Majesty's loyal subje cts with anxiety for the - welfare of these Kingdoms, and with deep affliction for the unavailing slaughters, desolations, and miseries with which they have covered the civilised and Christian world. We had concluded an arduous struggle against a formi dable rival of the power and prosperity of this .empires in a manlier creditable to our resources, and gloriou s to his Ma. jesty's arms, by sea and land .; and as the rupture with th e United States of America.was but an etect of the mutual hos tilities of the pre-existing Belligerents, it was reasonable to hope that peace with America. would have been the immedi ate consequence of the pacification of Europe. ' Alive to the honour as well as to the interests of the United Kingdorik a we ought not to conceal from ,ybur Royal Highness, that we should have been far more gratified, had the object of the - negotiations been sooner accomplished, or had suitable means been employed and promptly exevted for supporting the :character aad:ensuring the triumph s o f th e British . Dag. . " Oar regrets would, we acknowledge, have been much more poignant, under the.circuaistauces of the great supe riority of our means and cuSoUrCeS, were it nut notorious, that our occasional losses in the varied scene of naval hos initia;; a re t o he attributed, not to ally deficiency of ‘leeision and energy in the British character,. nor to any want of gal lantry and perseverance on time part of our Naval -Coalman debts and seamen, but to the kVailt of due iindramtion as to the force and construction ot the American ships of war, and to the inapplicable description of the -force employed against them. c• We s h ou ld nut have do ne justice to our feelings, had we passed over in silence the topics at which we have thus briefly and reluctantly glanced; but we contemplate' with satisfaction:the prospect of speedily returning to tuat state of society, which aiturds free scope to the commerc i al energies of this great Empire, and the approaching renewal of an inter course with a great, free, and rising people, connected with us by so many ties and sympathies —an intercourse which has been mutually advantageous,- and has greatly promoted the poWer r and prosperity of this Nation. Ntir thi we view with less pleasure the opportunities which will thus Ire afforded for diminishing our unexampled expenditure—for the removal of the most galling and debasing of our Taxes, such as we hope never again to have occasion to name —and for reforanog , those-abuses whi c h, i n a ser i es-of protracted couilicts, creep, into and deform every State, uuless carefully watched and zea lously guarded against. " That we may uninterruptedly devote ourselves to the pursuits, and enjoy the blessings of peace, and that the Royal House of Brunswick may long reign over a tree, happy, anti united people, is the ardent wish of his Majesty's faith ful Citizens of London. " Signed by Order of Court, " HENRY WoODTHORPE." To which his Royal Highness was pleased to return the following most grac i ous Answer':— I feel great satisfaction in having brought' the Negotia tions with the [hilted States of America to such a result as affords - a fair prospect of the speedy re - establiskinent of peace With that country. " Whatever may hare been the calamities occasioned by the extended warfare in which We were su long engaged, they are in no respect imputable to Great &juin'. It was the conviction that our cause was just, and that we were in/a voidably contending for all that was valuable to us as a na tion, that produced these extraordinary exertions, which, under the favour of Divine Providence, completely frustrated the designs of our enemies, and which will be eunteniplated with admiration and gratitude by our latest posterity. " No endeavours will he wanting on my part to promote a friendly intercourse between this Kitt:plot/1 and the coun tries with which we have been at war, arid to secure and improve all the advantages of peace." His Royal Highness afterwards held a Privy Council, when sonic other Sheriff's were obliged to be pricked for, in consequence of some of those already chosen being dead. His Royal Highness gave audiences to the Earl Of HARROWBY and Viscount SzeimouTa. WINDSOR, FEB. 24.

TO THE EDITOR 011"FHE SlR,—Though I am awari that every man who now publickly xpresses an anxiety upon religiouE topics runs the risque of incurring the imputa tion of _OV;locriiy, yet I cannot avoid requesting. your attention to a, subject which, in my opi nion, calls, loudly for, reprobation, I mean the highly indecent mixture of Sacred and Profane Musick at the Oratorios..o.l the propriety of performini; Sacred Musick at a Play-house, much doubt may be entertained ; but if it be, permitted to have, such performances on Wednesdays and Fridays at the Theatres, during Lent, surely care ought to be taken not to mix with them the Songs and Musick of our ordinary'entertainments. In order to slim that my complaint does not rest on slight grounds'', permit me to direct your attention and that of your readers to parts of the "Selection" performed last night at Drury-lane Theatre. • The performance commenced with a .song., of which the following are the,first two lines : " Slow broke the light, ; aid sweet breath'd the morn, When a maiden I saw sitting under a thorn ;" &c. which was soon followed by " 7e Deunz Lauda num" Then Caine a song beginning with, Believe me, if all these endearing young charms, Which I. gage on so fondly to-day, &c. Which was immediately succeeded by.• Meste fideles, laeti triumphantes • Venite iu liettilehem,•&c. I will trouble you but with three more extracts: Come, conic, tfrru god'dt'ss,' fair ',rid free, • In hear'n yichip'd huphro-yne, &c. Which 'was Onoyired by this awful 'appeal. to our Creator : O Lord God! our Hearenly King!. God the Father 'Al mighty, Lord God, the Scm!,the only begotten Redeemer; Jesus ! 0 Lord God ! Lamb of God ! .Son of the Father I .Which was in turn succeeded by An Invocation to two Pleilthen Deities, Isis and Osiris, in which the Priest implores their protection !!,!• 1 trust, Sir, this public notice of such gross in decency will cure the- evil, which, I have no douht proceeds only from inattention on• the part okthe Directors of these , performances ; .but if 'it should not, I hope the s❑hject will attract the notice of the liisbop .of :London, who - has-the power, and- I. am - : sure the inclination, to put: a stop to such revolting prOfanity.

Sampson brraking his Bowls, the late I. F. RI GAUD, It. A.—Everyßoval Academician presents one of his labours to the Academy oil being elected a Member, and the great picture, .of which thi s i s th e s k etch, must be recollected' by every adnurer,of the Arts, as that presented by Mr. Rigaud, and hung among the dubious trophies of Somerset Pouse. It is very highly finished for a thin; of .this generally slight description ; for most artists satisfy themselves with mere out lines and dashes, on which, as oa short notes or memoranda, they Nv oil; in the composition of their principal pictures.— Mr ; West pursues another course: his sl“.:tches are all ex cellently finished, and had lie never painted one of his great pictures, would have established his chiini to the foremost consideration. Mr. Rigaud, we may also discover from this specimen, left little for imagination after he had embodied his first. idea. This Sampson is a copy (a priori) in little of main work in the Royal Academy. ROYAL ACADEMY. ---MY. SOANE, the Professor of Architecture, delivered his second Lecture on Thursday night. It was a discourse ofpracticaluti lity, chiefly intended for young Artists. The learned anti ingenious Professor, however, illustrated his observations by a reference to the works of VI TRIVUS, PALLADIO, PYRA NISI, and other celebrated Architects, of former times, as well as to our ad mired countrymen INrGo Joilcs. The topics treat ed upon were roolus, windows, stair-cases, chim neys, and doors, the diniensions of which, and their due propOrtion 'to the nature and magnitude of the edifice, were shewn as Well as by . a develope ment of the principles adopted by the best Masters, as by a reference to ground-plans, sections, and elevations, drawings of which were submitted to the audience. Applying immediately to stair cases, he paid a high compliment to Mr. B. WYATT, on the construction of those in Drury lane Theatre, and concluded with a very eloquent and interesting; culogium on the social qualities, distinguished talents, and admirable works of the late JAMES WYATT, Esq. ANCIENT CONCERT.—This harmonic Institu tion, which, we believe is the oldest Esta blishment of the kind in the kingdom, commenced for the season.on Wednesday night. The Duke of CUMBFRI.AND was to have been the Director for the night, bat his place was supplied by the Duke of DEvoNsitittF.. Mr. F. CaAmErt, as usual, led, and the Orchestra was occupied by the ablest Performers of the Royal Band. BARTLEMAN, VAUGHAN, AV. KNYVETT, Miss TRAVERS, and Miss STEPHENS, were the chief vocal Performers. The selections were from FIANoEL and PEitGor.Esr. The new Ballet called The fiztliqu Nuptials, which was roughly handled on its introduction on Monday dt Drury -lane Theatre, was better received last night. The Edinburgh SheriWdisplayed humour as well as wisdom in inflicting a fine upon the Principals and Seconds concerned in au intended duel, and ordering the penalty to be applied . to tl4t Lunatic Hospital ; but some people think that he 'night also have given directions for the parties to be admitted as Patients. THE RECENT DUEL IN DUBLIN. . • It . cc contrast 'th e good effects of the office of Coroner in this cOpntry, with., the:. situation of, Countries Where no such ofce exists, we shall he fully con Vined of its advant age , an d t h e safety it secures o the,ebunnunity.' • • In Italy, for instance,, where it rests with the friends to bring:the murderer, duellist, or what you are pleased to call him, to justice, hired bravos, or men instigated by private revenge, take away the lives of men with impunity, and with out fear of• punightnent.. lu many , ins-ionce3, the known murderer will write threatening letters to the relatives or friends of the sufferer, telling them, if they have ,any intention to proceed 'le gally Against him, or revenge the murder, he will, treat them like the deceased ! The consequence is, the offender'escapes, or the surviving friends take the same clandestine modes of revenge on the offender. Thus crimes multiply, the security of human life is in constant jeopardy by malice, envy, jealousy, and the whole train of hateful passions, rousing to deeds of revenge and murder. The custom of deciding private difierences by duel is becoming daily more common, and it is high time the, Legislature should put a stop to this barbarous custom of the middle ages, , which, though it may determine who is the beSt fencer or marksman, no one in his senses will consider as , decisive as t o e ith er part,y, in respe ct to r i g h t or wrong, though our ancestors, in the dark times of superstition, might indulge in' Such a belief. It is hoped this occurrence xvill be inquired into, with a view to the good of tke public fol., if this example should stand as a precedent, it would soon be folloWed by others, and produce dreadful consequences,, The SecondS are mostly considered as partici pants in the crime, where one or both the duel lists fall; it is,l therefore, a dangerous practice to admit them, by their influence with the friends of the deceased, to screen the party who has killed his opponent, perhaps the Second ii:AL ing an eye to his oi.vti safety by so doing. I beg leave to add, that none of the parties in the recent duel are known to we, and what I have stated is merely from a sense of what is due to Feb. 18, 1815. JUSTICE, P. S. It is remarkable, that in the very Paper above referred to, and in the next column to that the correspondence about the duel is given, there is, under the head of Ireland, an account of an Inquest, held byArthur B. Moss, Esq. Coroner for the County of Dublin, probably the very Gentle man whose office it was to perform the same duty to the unfortunate Mr. D'Esterre. It is said, there were from 4 to 500 spectators at the duel; there can, therefore, be no Want of witnesses, COURT-NARTIAL.—.- A General Court-Martial was held at P a l ermo on t h e 9th Sept. 1814, and continued by adjournment to the 17th of the same month, when Lieut. JAMES BRIDGER, bf the 20th Light Dragoons, was arraigned on three charges, of having used the most opprobrious langu ge against Colimel HAWKER, his CommautWg Offi cer, accusing Itito of cowardice, Ittc. •was round guilty of the first tilt) charges, actirtitted on the third, and cashiered. The sentence has been confirmed by the PraucE REGENT. The detachment of Royal Artillery stationed at Hitll left that place on Monday week, on the route for Newcastle-upon-Tyne, the head-quar ters of the district. The depot of the G 5 13 and 101st Regiments, lately stationed at, Hull, march ed-frarn thence on Th n i s d ay for Portsmouth-. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Urn,-1 observe, by your Paper of the II th inst. an advice from Dublin, dated the 7th Feb. whi l .ch states, that no Inquest has been held on the body of the unfortunate Mr. D'ESTgRRE, who died in consequence of a duel with Mr. O ' CONNEL. It appears by a letter froin Sir Edward Stanley, Mr. D'Esterre's second, to Mr: O'Connel, there is.no prosecution intended by the friends of the de- , ceased. Mr. O'Connel's reply, which, as well as Sir , E. Stanley's, von have published, declares this, to be a very polite and considerate attention :On 1 the.Rart'of 'Sir E.
