FOR 'ME SUN. , MR. Enyroa—As egregious mistatements of the rause BARRY v. BArtltY have appeared in several of ikt.. London Papers, I feel myself called upon ;o scpply the following authentic particulars, an d request that you will favour me by in setting this Letter in THE SUN. Mr. BARRY, r:nior, as Tenant for life, inherited estates from his Uncle, without impeachment of waste, nevertheless subject 'to certain' con di,ions, and in the event of non-fulfilment, he leas to forfeit them to the next heir, whosoever it night be (for many were named in the re mainder) should he die without issue male ; it so happened, t hat having an only Son, he neglected to comply with the stipulation contained in his Uncle's Will ; therefore, Vt ben I attained the age ,uf twenty-one years, I could have avaded Of his ivattention ; but God forbid. I spurned the ir!ea the moment it was mlled, and so far from taking ally advantage or wishing in the slightet degree to hurt Mr. BARRY'S feelings, immediate:y jolted with Line (zs it rio forfeiture had occur red), l in 14,,rting the entail, and tvhich had I seized the eitates Caring the remainder man) I coulfl have do n e o ithont his assistance. However, in consequence of wheat he was then pleased to term my . honourable and ditinterest . ea conduct, viz. con-enting to the payment of debts and an nuities, &c. &c. that had been contracted, it was agreed that the estates re-settled on him should be liable to impeachment of waste. For some years indeed, until shot tly after the decease of my most amiable and revered mother, we continued to re side together, durH4 which period I nearly re built the mansion-house, built new stables, made Gardens, Plantations, &c. at an expence to myself little short of fifty thousand pounds, whicir Mr. BARRY is in the full enjoy ment of, and from %v hich I now desire not the least benefit. After we ceased to reside together, as 1 Lave been led to suppose, Mr. BARRY formed th'e singular notion of destroying or altering every thing that had been done by me, and commenced his operations by cutting down without discs imination, two thousand ornamen tal trees planted by myself in divers parts of the Park, from fifteen to twenty years womb, I estles many old timber trees, and various other species of waste, to my detriment and dissatisfaction. On the first informatiou I receiv ed, I wrote letters of expostulation to, Mr. BARRY and his Solicitor, which did not produce the desired effect. These letters, and my anxious desire to procure an amicable arrangement between parties so nearly connected as Mr. BARRY and my self, is the real cause of the delay mentioned by the LARD HIGH CHANCELLOR. The Bill was filed about the month of March, 1819, and the answer about November following ; and the further delay in this business was occasioned by the defendant claiming the orders for time allowed by the Court, and an attachment was served, as I am in!ormcd,, ere an answer to the bills was obtained—a measure that would not have been resorted to bad not Mr. BARRY committed more waste •in defiance of the bill 1 had filed. Under these circumstances, and every overture on my part, soliciting a friendly adjustment, ploving fruitless, I felt ❑►yself jus'ified in ap• rating to the Honourable the Court of Chancery, tint with any bostil ` e views towards Mr. BARRY, but for the protection of my property, which I found tvas likely to be most seriously injured, un less an absolute stop was put to the devastations daily conanitting, and which I firmly believe have t►ot originated with Mr. BARRY himself, but from the bad counsel of incompetent .Idcisers. The LORD HIGH CUANoiLLOR did not grant an injunction, on the grounds that I had suffered too much time to elapse after the committal of waste before I filed my Bill, the reason for which delay, I trust, I have satisfactorily explained ; but be likewise observed hat the defendant must clearly understand that" if he cut down another tree, however ►rifling in value, or committed any other kind of waste hereafter, he ,vould instantly grant an injunction. Did I not think it my duty to contradict the state ments alluded to, I S hould apologize for intruding on your time and the public attention. 1 am, Sir, Your most obedient humble Servant, March I i. P. B. BARRY, Junior. SALISBURY CRAIGS.—On Friday, Lord PIT MILLY heard a debate, at great length, on the action of declarator, pursued at the instance of the Officers of State against the Eirl of HADDING. TON, for having it found and declared, that his Lordship, as Keeper of the Royal Parks surround ing the Palace of Uolyroodhouse, has no right nor title to quarry or carry away the rocks front Salis bury Craigs. The SOLICI'T'OR-GENERAL contended that he had no right to do so. 111 x. CRANSTOUN, for the defender, maintained, that he had a right to quarry the rocks, and use the whole grounds as he saw fit. As the case involved many points of law, as cell as rights of Servitude, whet dn the inhabitants of Edinburgh had a first interest, Lord PrrmILLY ordered memorials to be given in by the first box-day in the ensuing vacation.— kEdiitburgh Courant,) LONDON JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNINt, r.-u!JW,S OF THIS DAY. [Morning Post.] We have received advices from Calcutta to the beginning of October. They confirm our former accounts of the expulsion of the Dutch from Pa lembang, with the loss of 117inen and 2 officers killed. The Malays had a battery of 30 pieces of cannon, which the Dutch attempted to storm, but were repulsed. Ills Burinah . Majesty, the King of Ara, died on the Zith June, having reigned 33 years, and was succeeded by the Prince Regen!, his giandson ; the body of the late King was burned on the funeral pile by the irands of the Princes, and his ashes placed in the royal ceme tery, inclosed in an urn. The present King hacing,reason to fear his own brother, the Prince of Tauontro, whose daring spirit led him to form the desigN of seizing on the Throne, bad hint ar rested, together with the whole of the children, grand children, and the rest of the family, who te tt e afterwards put into red sacks and thrown into the sea, a death reserved by the laws of the coun!ry for the Royal Family only ! The Prince Prone, uncle of the King, and who was also leagued in the conspiracy, was tottnred on the rack, and afterwards strangled while in prion.— Pi ince Len Gain, whose; elder brother, Mohe ning, is the son-in-law of Raugoon, was likewise executed as a conspirator. One of the Pilule Ministers of the Governor of the \Vestero Pro vinces was also punished with death, for the same offence. The number of the principal personages attached to cause and interests ot. the late Princes, who suffered death for their attachmeitt to them, is said to be about 1400 ; and is is confi dently believed, that front 10 to 13,000 men► of the lowest class have shared the same fate. The property of Prince'd'aur►noo, which has been con fisca►ed by dae royal authority, amounted to about 1 848,000 sieca rop,-es ; the property of Priuce Prone is stated to have been more than that of Prince Ta , tonoo, and, by order of the King, was distributed amongst ,the army. [British, Press.] A Correspondent says, the Coronation of hie Most Gracious Majesty, King George IV. is at present fixed to take !dice iu the month of Au gust next, the month in which our Sovereign was born. [ The Times.] Poor old Cobbett has been cruelly hooted out of Coventry ; and never man made such a whining as be has done, on finding his patrons of the lower orders greatly inflamed against him. On the toad we learn that the innkeepers and others re pelled hint from their houses with as much abhor rence as if he bad bad a box of Tom Paine's bones powdered to throw in their portidge.pots. —His opponertzs at Coventry exhibi'ed a wooden skeleton against him. Herein the mob were less savage than himself, inasmuch as they did not ransack the graves for a teal corpse, as he pre tends that he did. His aotagonists, exulting in their strength, and stimnlated by ;.steed of the bone-werchaut, assailed and broke the windows of a man's house where the defeated candida.e was lurking. His terror was extreme at the time,. and his complaints since equally childish. The violence of mobs is at all times to be deprecated, and ought to be controuled by legal force. But, had the I wo real members been treated as he was, how the rogue would have boasted and exulted. Let him recollect the horrid death and destruction which lie denounced against Sit Francis Burdett. These are his words—we repeat them with horror, but what wretches they must be who could vote for such a wretch!— " Well, then, the base Baronet is exposed at last. I bad him on the rack ; and yon have given him the coup-de-grccc. I shall give him one /dory more; and if he, when he has g, , t that, du nut, in a cross-road's grave, seek refuge from the scorn of mankind, he will prove himself more insensible than brass or marble." Ought such a monster as this, we ask, to cons. plain that his hideous partisans have their coats turn, and that one of them has indows broken ? We recollect a Cota , :,i , ee . -room of Sir Murray Maxwell's ; in King-sheet, being con verted•into a pet feet shell, as if it had been de stroyed by fire, at the last general Election ; and that Gentleman sustained twenty times more personal injury, though he telt less fear, than Cobbett.

SOL&M Ql'IS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT LONDON, THURSDAY, MARCH 16, 1820. NVe received this morning the Paris Papers of Monday last. They contain the following intel ligence from Spai❑ : (Front the Gazette de France.) " Madrid Gazettes, of the 2d Itlarch, arrived yesterday (Sunday) ; they contain nothing of interest. " Intelligence received by private letters of the same date confirms what was said respecting the Insurrection in Callicia. It is added, that apprehensions were entertained of its hating broken out at St. James de Cotnpostella. Since the events of the 20th ult. at Comma, the tran quillity of that city had not been interrupted. '' The Kiug of Spain has formed a permanent Junta of State, of which the Infant Don Catlo3, ►he Duke de Nora:oath), a►►;l the A►►;;iliaty Bi,hop of Madrid, are Members. It is believed in that Capital, that his I . lajesty irate►•ided to realize his promise'given in the decree cif Valencay, of May 1814, of giving a Constitution to the Spanish Nation. There is n►uch conversation upon the subject at Madrid. " The Bayonne Correspon4enee leaves doubts as to what was said two or three days sioce re- spectiog Santander, Some symptoms of agita.... tion were, it is said, manifested at Valladolid, but no tumult broke out. It is understood that the Insurgents proclaim In all the towns which they occupy an exemption front contribations, the introduction of provisions free of duty, and that of all the products of foreign industry, at a duty of 12 per cent. Tobacco can now enter Spain on payment of a real per lb. " The Letters front Bayonne say very little of Mina. There is reason to believe that the progress of that Chief in Navarre is not so brilliant as some of our liberal Journals have asserted. (From the Moniteur.) " According to Letters which we have received from Malaga', of the 23d and 26th February, it is certain that Lieutenant-Colonel Rafael Rirgo entered that ci!y on the 19th, in the evening, with only 2,000 Infantry and GO Cavalry, brat he found the population entirely inaccessible to his Proclamations, and that be was obliged to de part in the night of the 19th, atter a considerable contest in the streets, in which the troops of Peneral,O'Donnell displayed much sang froid and resolutio❑ against the insurgents. This € - L:,eral left Malaga on the 22d, to march upon Antiquera in pursuit of Riego. " At Cadiz, the letters to the 25th speak of no engagement, nor of any attack upon the Corta dura. General Freyre had reviewed the Garrison, and returned to his head-quarters at Sainte Marie. He had conceded to the persons arrested on the ground of security, that they might he transferred to Saint Marie, instead of to Ceuta. " Letters from Corunna of the 26th ult., and from Madrid of the 2d March, state that the troops of Gallicia had proclaimed the Constitution of the Cortes in two-thirds-of the Province. The Insurrectional Junta had issued a Proclamation to the People, and to the Militia. The Militia had not yet declared themselves at Ferrol. There had been great popular disorders. A Dictatorial Junta has been organized at. Madrid, by order of the King, under the Presi dency of the Infant Don Carlos. " We have learnt the arrival of Mina in the Spanish territory. We know nothing of the first results of his unexpected appearance. (From the .7191irnal dr.e Debars.) " The Madrid Gazettes to the 2d March having arrived without any obstacle, it is thus proved that :he bands of Mina are not mas ters of the great road from Madtid to Bay onne. By a private letter we learn, that on the 25111,0 t February the column of Riego, at the moment when it was attempting to pene rate into Ronda, had been completely defeated by Colonel Have, who commanded a Division of the Army of O'Donnell. (Front Me Journal de Paris.) " The Bordeaux Journals of the 7th and Bth March give little news front Spain. We only find in one of these Journals (and the intelligence requires confirmation) that, according to a letter from Valladolid, General Freyre had given, in his resignation, and that two General Officers had refused the command, which had been accepted by General Dun Carlos Espagna. • " The Mtmorial 13earnais relates, in the fol. lowing terms, upon the authority of letters from Bayonne, the arrival of Mina in Spain : " Having left Paris the 17th with Colonel Etchevaria, Mina wa3 received at Bourtleaux as a domestic in the suite of a Gentleman, who set out post for Bayonne, and as such he occupied, as well as his companion, a place in his carriage. The day after their arrival at Bayonne, Mina and Colonel Etchevaria went out of the City under the pretext of going to bathe, and ti►ey did not again appear.- The Gentleman alluded to having been arrested and interrogated, stated, that it was possibl,e these pre tended domestics had abused his confidence, but he knew nothing of their real names and charac ters when be received them into his service. 4 `ltt the eveui►:g two fine horses, which it has since been ascertained belonged to Mina, art ivc'd at Bayonne but they being said to be destined for the Court of Spain, their arrival excited no suspicion. " It is understood that Mina was received on the frontiers by 10 persons, employed to serve as his escort. it,is believe(i by some that he in tended to proceed by bye-ways to the Camp of the Insorge.nts ; others think that he will remain in Naval re, in order to attempt to operate a dicti ion " PARIS, MARCH 13.—The King bell a Cnurt yesterolly, whist/ WO very numerously Rl:tudeti, Amongst thole pres Ont were the Spanish anti Neapolitan Ambassadors, and the Prince de Talleyrand. Ilts Majesty went to the Chapel to hear mass, attended by the Duke tie Richelieu, the 1' inc e de Talleyrand, " General Gnillet has not been arrested; he has been interrogated at his residence by the Peers. (Journal des Debuts.) " Vincent, formerly an Agent of the General Police, has been arrested, and is still in custody. (Ibid.) It has, we understand, been recently reported in certain legal and political circles, that a great Law Officer waited upon a greater Law Officer, and informed him, that he had now obtained such 'evidence against a Female of High Consequence as would justify such proceedings against her as could not but be convincing to the nation anti man kind. He then, it is said, stated that the distin guished Female hail been present at a kind of Dance by men only, attended with some ci►r cutnstances, which we cannot, Ivith any degree of propriety relate in a public Journal, and which indeed, are totally unfit for public knowledge.— The greater Law Officer, it is added, expressed his concern that such a report had prevailed ; but, supposing the fact, he observed that, however censurable it might be in a moral con sideration, be knew not of any Law which ap plied to the case in the - way of punishment.-- This is such an age of imposition that, per haps, no interview on the subject in question has taken place between the two Law Authorities, and that no such event has really happened; but that it is a malignant fabrication, intended to in lure the fair fame of the female alluded to. it is, however, certain, that many other stories of a similar nature have been circulated in different parts of Italy, and are supposed, whether true or false, to have operated very strongly on die minds of Mr. TIERNEY and Mr. BROUGHAM, SO tt9 to induce one of those Gentlemen, atter having boisterously demanded certain rights in favour of the Person in question, to sink into a calm re commendation of an inquiry into the propriety of granting those rights at all, and the other to signify in Parliament that he would not utter a single word on the subject. It may be deemed some what curious and strange, however, that the Person principally concerned on the occasion, does , not appear to be very solicitous ro claim the afore- Said rights, or inclined by her presence to enforce au application fur them.

A Letter from Stockholm, dated Feb. 20, say° , " Sortie Foreign Papers mention v'ith certain afr fectation a Note presented by Lard STRAND' roan to the Swedish Government, and seem t ° imply that it bad produced a strong sensation. / The fact is, that this 'very Note had no cal object in view, but Inertly concerned a lawsuit between atr English merchant and solv e Cnstom-house Officers in Norway, which th e King has ordered to he carried, without delay' before the competent Court, to be decided a ccord' ing to law.
