Mr. GRATTAN having come to tOWII on Satur. day, from Tinnehinch, a Deputation of Roman" Catholic Gentlemen waited on him at Stephetes-, green, for the purpose of ascertaining whether, the state of his health would pet mit his attendance in Parliament during the present Session, in snf..` 6cient time for him to move upon the Roman Ca..' tholic Petition. It was also the intention of the' Deputation, we believe, should it unfortunately . happen that Mr. GRATTAN would be unable per sonally tO advocate RomAn Catholic Claims,• to entreat that he. would name a subslitite, fit to undertake a task so arduous.

'Thtoughottt the whole of their excur ,sions, 'bete was on. the pat t ot,the Royal Pair no assumption of painful pre-eminence, or imposing stipet unity.' The awe of state was removed by the ease of the gentleman ;. and the Princesses were the theme of praise from every tongue."-- " The King was now understood to have reco vered his health in a surprising degree ; and ad dresses,upon this happy event poured in from every part of the kingdom : but 41 the midst of this blaze of loyalty from his own subjects, a most palpable insult was offered to him by those who had once been under his ieway, On the 6th of August, beingon huattl the Southampton, on acruise in the oiling, the Royal Standard flying, and accompanied by the Magnificent, a large Awe- - rican ship, proudly displaying her thmeetritripes, thought proper to pass close to the Southampton under a press of sail, not deigning to pay even the customary salute to a man of war, of lowering star topgallant sails. Of this insult, it was judged improper „tor the Southampton to take any immediate notice; ,but the Magnificent in stantly made sail atter- the rade Columbian, and having fired a shot a-head of her, she thought proper to make more than: the necessary repara tit,n, by lowering both topgallant sails and top sails, as a mark of deference." in the course of the Su`tiu tour, the Royal Party made an excursion to Plymouth, and were received with all due bottoms. ," On a visit to tire dock-yard, on the ensuing /fay, nothing passed unnoticed by his Ala . ksty.
