TT. IHE PUBLIC JOLLINAL_, In this day's communication from our private corre spondent at Paris, will be found a statement, on the best authority, for which we can pledge ourselves, of the man ner in which his Majesty Charles X. received in his closet the Spanish Ambassador, whom he had treated with marked coldness at the public levee. It is truly gratify- - ing to perceive that the King, on the occasion of the pri vate interview, followed up those proofs of displeasure at the Spanish Court which he had afforded in the presence, as in fact it was, of all" Europe, by a manifestation of dis gust which could not be mistaken by the' parties towards whom it . was _exhibited ; and Otis took away all sinister hopes which might have been founded on a supposed in consistency between the Royal professions and the senti ments really entertained. The lovers of civil liberty also, as well as those of national right and justice, bave. had their triumph within the last few days at Paris. M. Peyronnet, in his prosecution of the Courtier Francair, after calling for an imprisonment of the Editor for a month, and a fine of 10,000 francs (about 6001.), was forced to 1 content himself with 300 francs (about 121 .) and two short weeks' imprisonment.—Times. il To such of our readers as may have been deterred by its length from reading the " Address to the Roman Ca tholics of the County of Louth," in our paper of Friday last, we strongly recommend its attentive perusal. Indeed we may defy any one who feels the smallest interest in the welfare of Ireland—or who takes any (and who does not ?) in the Catholic Question, to read ten lines of 'that inte resting paper, and not eagerly follow the writer to his conclusion. Nothing so calm, so interesting, or so power ful, has for a long time issued from the Press ; and we do not know of a more praiseworthy act than any individual or society, having the welfare of Ireland at heart, could perform, than in printing it in a cheap form, and distri buting it by hundreds of thousands throughout that coun t try. The writer, Mr. M'Clintock, is evidently a patriot lin the true sense of the word; and the admirable skill with ' whiCh he points out the violence, the blindness, and the tergiversation of the Catholic Leaders, is such as must carry-with it irresistible persuasion, even to the minds of liberal and disinterested Catholics themselves. No man can accuse this writer of bigotry or intolerance, or even of unreasonable opposition to the Catholic claims—to whiehi-indeed, he appears himself to be decidedly friendly, which he shows with unanswerable force of truth, the means which are every hour taking by its psendo-advo cates„for the ruin of the cause which they profess to espouse. The striking manner in which, in the following paragraph, he redeems the Irish character from the indis cretion of the O'Connells, the Shiels, et id genus omne, will justify our repeating it. If; says he, the waters of bitterness have overflowed the land, the calamity is not attributable to the people of Ireland. They are a noble, generous, friendly, and hospitable people. If they do not possess the grave foresight of the peOple of Scotland, or the prudential wisdom of those of England, they yield to neither in quicknee - a of intellect, nor in capability of high and useful at tainment. But, easily.susceptible of impression, they are liable to be seduced into hatardons machinations by the artifices of cun ning and designing men. Unfounded or exaggerated complaints are scattered among them. They are vexed and harassed by tales of wrongs,' which it is the interest only of their leaders that they should believe ; and while they are led to act, or con 41enaned to suffer, the reel and artful criminals who,urge them on rinjny. the safety of a dishonourable an d unmerited im p unit y .— 'Here is- the - great cause of our public discords and calamities. The temper of a people,. otherwise kindly And generously dis 'poied,-is' managed as au instrument for the accomplishment of evil-designs, and provoked and kindled as occasion r eq uires,— fF" I4 .10114 hands, who would not wish to rescue the m ? 'Who .would. not wish that such a people were removed from the in fluences:which have so often, and so Mischievously; misled their pr,s'elenituid tsMdencies? All men - who value the public welfare should unite in promoting a purpose so hil l :km:taut to the country ; and if in the remarks b l are made, I have been free and unreserved, this has been my object, and must be my apology. What heart and what understanding is there that will not readily respond to the truth of this appeal ? What independent man is there, let his religious or political per suasion be what it may, who must not at once subscribe to the truth and justice of these remarks, while. he laments that a people composed of materials at once so excellent and ductile, should be moulded into mischief, and into the elements of their own ruin, by the interested hunters after silk gowns and other objects of personal aggrandizement i and notoriety ? A few such powerful appeals as this, how t ever, would effectually dispel the illusion. As warm and a. axious friends to Ireland, we have readily lent our aid to it „lispersion ; and in thus drawing the attention of our readers, both in that country and in this, to a document of I so much va ;:te and importance, we trust that we are lend in our aid in t:: e service of a country, which it is impos g . Herald. Bible not to pity ant;admire.—Merning . We this day present ta our readers a curious Docu ment, which deserves most aeijous attention. It is a view of the present state of p9litieit Airs in Spain, from the pen of Don Pedro Inguanzo, the present /archbishop of Toledo and Primate of all Spainsa man of the greatest learning and influence, but strenuously devoted to the Apostolical cause. This Piper contains the opinion of the Prelate, submitted to the King by his express com mands, for the guidance of his conduct, in the arduous position in which he is placed, as well as a alief to , his con science. We have some /Talon to believe that a simi lar opinion was required of another exalted Personage, employed in the Ministry, and from the very virulent lan , euage it conveyed, it is said to have g iven g reat umbrage to certain parties, or their representatives, more pointedly : accused, or more particularly affected by it. Some day, ere long, we do not despair of having it in our power to give it also a place in our columns. In the mean time, to chew the influence such an opinion as that we insert must have had over the mind_of King Ferdinand, and conse quently over the future destinies of Spain, we have deemed , it advisable to draw up a short biographical sketch of the author, illustrative of his public character and principles. Don Pedro Inguanzo was born of respectable parents, in : a small village within the jurisdiction of the Council of `: Llanes, in .the province of Asturias. He commenced his studies in the University of Oviedo, where he took a degree in canon law, laaviag been particul ar l y distin :guished for his talents and application. He was re ceived as a Licentiate -. in the University of Osma, kw • expensive than that of Oviedo. Having chased his stndieii, ''. he presented himself in the lists to obtain, by ceeepeti s tion, the situation of Canon, successively in the Cathedrals of Leon, Zamora, Mondonedo, and Oviedo; and on the last occasion, the Chapter awarded to him the prize, He was soon distinguished for his acuteness in all matters of controversy, and, on this account, named Doctoral of the Cathedral of Oviedo. Such was his rank and situa tion in 1808, when the invasion and subsequent revolution of Spain commenced. He then adopted the popular cause of his country, and was highly res p ected. In 1810, he was elected a Deputy to the Cortes for the Province of Asturias, and, although he became a strenuous defender of the Inquisition, on most of the other leading topics of the ~ day his principles were avowedly liberal. He was one of the Deputies employed in framing the Constitution, and, on all occasions, displayed most profound learning, more particularly in matters connected with the Canon-law. — He sanctioned, by his own vote, the principal articles of the Constitution—such as that the Sovereignty essentially - resides in the Nation, &c. In a long and eloquent speech, as which he pronounced in the Sitting of 12th September, 1811, in order to prove the right the nation ha d to enact a ie Constitution for itself, and the necessity there was to check despotism, " The Cortes," said he, "are a • counterpoise to I' the Royal Power , and serve to moder ate its influence." iOn the 21st May, 1814, and after the dissolution of the Cortes, a Commission, under the Royal sea), was addressed to certain Judges, appointed by the King, for the purpose of accusing and trying such of the Deputies as had shewn themselves most disposed to curtail the prerogatiVes of the 7 Crown. Inguanzo was the chief accuser of his own col ``, , leagues, and the principal charges he exhibited ag a i nst s them w ere , for their approbation and sanction of articl es 14., .15, 16, and 17 of the Constitution, notwithstanding he himself was originally among their number. From the moment the King returned, and his hostility to the new in- stitutions established during his absence was known, In guanzo beca t pe a parasite, and a most strenuous upholder of despotic power. As a reward for his zeal and activity, or rather, treachery and denunciations, he was made Bishop of Zamora. After the Constitution was again proclaimed in 1820, he continued to intrigue against, and became one of the avowed champions of those who contended for its second overthrow. He, in fact, raised the inhabitants of his own Bishopric of Zamora against it in 1823, and at their head prevented the entry of General Empecinado into that city. This revolution and defence of Zamora, in the King's interests, raised his fame, and he increased it by subsequent punishment he caused to be inflicted on many persons, belonging to his own diocese, for the crime of being Constitutionalists. Traits of the most horrid and vindictive nature are recorded of him. This marked de votion to the King's cause, and his great learning, obtain ed for him the See of Toledo, the first dignity of the Kingdom, and previously filled by a Member of the Royal Family, and Uncle to the King. Ever since, he has been known as one of the most zealous supporters of the Throne, and may now be considered as the leader of the Apostolicals. The length and difficulties of our transla tion from the MS. Copy of the Archbishop of Toledo's Address, as it reached us from Madrid, have precluded the possibility of any remarks on the tendency of the doc trines contained in so novel and influential a paper. We shall, however, resume the subject, and, in the mean time, merely remark, that the sentiments conveyed in this document may now be considered as those of King Ferdinand, of the whole Royal Family, and also of the entire party that governs Spain, from one extreme to the other; in short, the same which armed the Portuguesere fugees on the Spainsh frontiers, and now assembles an army of 24,000 Spaniards there. We shall close our observations for the present, by copying here an extract from the letter, dated Madrid, Dec. 27:—" I enclose you a copy of the Exposition, which Inguanzo, the Archbishop of Toledo, has just submitted to the King. Its circulation is yet ex tremely private, as you will conclude from the high cha racter of the author, and the nature of the subject. It is, in fact, only in the hands of a few big-wigs here—but in the palace it has made the deepest impression. I don't say an accident—but rather my anxiety for the triumph of liberal principles, has placed it within my reach, and I hasten to send you a scribbled and hasty copy of a paper which, if the Apostolicals gain the day, will be registered in the churches in golden letters, or preserved for history with more awe than the late Protest of the Duke of York in the House of Lords. I shall merely add, that if a war ensues, here the attempt will be made to give to it the character of a war of religion and in that case, resources will not be wanting; for, believe me, here or in Portugal, money scarcely would be necessary to carry on hostilities, waged by fanatics. The general opinion, besides, is, that there are other instigators to this war in addition to the Clergy.—Morning Chronicle. At one of the late grotesque exhibitions. which O'Can- nell and.Sheil get up under the name of Catholic Meet-, ings, these two persons attempted to act a character very ill suited to them. The principal topic was the anti cipated death of his Royal Highness the Duke of York ; and the two speakers (for, at a Catholic Meeting who but O'Connell and Sheil have a right to speak?) seem to have been very anxious to lessen, by an af ‘fected recantation of their former atrocities, the hor ror and disgust which the recollection of those atrocities inspire. - In taking this course; these men showed rather more prudence than usual. They did not dare to dissent from that universal esteem, and that love and regret, which have accompanied our late excellent Prince to the termi- nation.of his mortal existence. The English are a nation who do not lavish approbation and affection upon Princes undeserving of such sentiments, nor are we apt to be very prompt and decided in expressing even the attachment which we feel. The Duke of York had spent his life among us, in the open intercourse of private society, and in the active collision of daily business. He was not fenced and guarded from severe observation and keen judgment by the ceremonial of a Court; nor was he subjected to the scrutiny of those only who might be inclined to form a fair or a favourable. opinion. He was brought into con tact with persons of all descriptions. His, whole life was before the eyes of his countrymen. He was placed in a - situation, the duties. of which were as deli cate as they were arduous and important ; and the result was that this or that class, or this or that party, but that all men, of all classes, and of all parties, esteemed him highly and loved him warmly. The Dublin spouters, awed by the strong and general feeling of the country, did not dare to yield to their own base and grovelling spirit. They were compelled, in spite of their own natures, to prostrate themselves at the name which they had done their utmost to outrage. Their homage to the Duke of York is, in itself, without value, for they are incapable of esteem for anything except that which nobody else esteems —themselves and their speeches; and they are incapable of love for aught which is not as worthless as their own chara,cters ; but their eulogies prove the strength and ar dour of the feelings which attach the nation to the memory of the Duke of York, tied which even O'Connell and Shiel find it prudent to respect. O'Connell stated that his Royal Highness was gallant, candid, and sincere; that hg Thever broke his promise to any human being ; that he never madp a distinction between a Catholic and a Protes tant ; and that his personal friends, who voted for Catholic 'Emancipation, were nevee treated by him with less cordiality on that account. Sheil followed; and, in a tissue of asthmatic rhetoric, gasping and panting for long epithets, metaphors, and shreds of verses, heaped every praise upon him, whom his reptile malice had shortly be fore in vain attempted to outrage. He was, however, unable to suppress the unclean devil which possesses him, Every now and then it was easy to discover that lurking cowardly hatred, which a bad man always bears to him whom he supposes that he has injured. One passage in the elaborate, painfully conceived, and painfully delivered, r igmarole of this mountebank, may be noticed, as a speci men of the extravagant falsehoods which may be retailed among such auditors as those to whom he addresses him self. " Nor , " says he, " should the people of this coun try follow the example set them by . the English, who, at the burial of Castlereagh, shouted . at the gates of Westminster Abbey, and commended him with execrations to the grave." Let the vain hireling spoutet libel, if he pleases, himself, and his country, and the religipy which he deems it convenient to profess ; but let him. not utter spe.rsions on the peo ple of En g land, which, though suited to such lips as his, the ears of an Irish audience ought to have r ejec t e d with indignation. The Englisb shout at the burial of Lord Londonderry ! The English commend him with execra tions to the grave ! It is true, that, as the coffin of that lamented Nobleman was removed out of the hearse, a few hired miscreants, who had mixed with the mob, attempted to raise a shout; but even the mob, far from joining in it, expressed only disgust and abhorrence, that monsters, so debased, should have found a place among them. We are not without our miscreants any more than Ireland; there are in London, as well as in Dublin, men, who have all the qualities of assassins and traitors, except courage; and it is natural that such men should exult, when all good men mourn. But such wretches are not more the English nation, than the criminals who suffer by the laws of their country. They are among us what O'Connell and Sheil are in Ireland ; and God forbid that either the hearts or the understandings of our Irish fellow-subjects should be judged of from the extravagances of such ruffians.—New Times. The herring fishing Frith is doing very littl e in the this season. The boats have frequently been out whole days with out getting many barrels. The herrings, too, are smaller th an those of former years, when the fishing was attended with greater success. Indeed , there is every reason to fear. that the herrings will in a few years desert the Frith alto g ethe r , as th e take of eac season shows that they are gradually on the decline. The last time that the, expectations of the curers were fully realised was in 1814 - since then, with one or two exceptions , t he quantity taken has been less and less every year.—Edinburgh Evening Courant.

Bank of England Notes, sundry small Bills of Exchange, to the amount of about 501., and three Cambridge Bank Notes. The prosecutor stated that, on Friday night, he had been drinking in a house in Lombard-street, Bouverie-street, and left it about 12 o'clock, and proceeded towards the house of a friend at the other end of the town, through the Minories. He was a little intoxicated, and, upon teaching the farther end of the Mino ries, he was jostled against by a person, and he fell down. The piisoner, upon seeing him fall, approiched, and, under the pre tence of assisting him to get up, thrust his hand into his (prose cUtor's) breast, snatched his pocket-book, which contained the above-mentioned property, and handed it to a man, who stood behind him, and who, upon receiving it, ran away. The prose cutor held the prisoner fast, called the watchman, and gave him into custody. The Len)) MAYOR asked whether the prosecutor was con vinced that the prisoner was the person who forced his pocket book from him. The prosecutor declared that he entertained not the slightest doubt of the identity of the prisoner ; for the moment the young man's hand was thrust into his breast, he grasped the wrist, and held the prisoner, and never let him go until the watchman came up. . . The Loan MAYOR asked whether the prosecutor was not greatly intoxicated. The prosecutor replied, that he was certainly in liquor ; but not in such a condition as to be capable of mistaking the person who robbed him. Mr. HOBLER, jun. appeared for the prisoner, and mentioned to the Lord Mayor, that he expected a gentleman, whose evidence could throw a very considerable doubt upon the prosecutor's state ment. The Lord Mayor consented to wait, and the expected witness soon arrived. Mr. Pember stated, that as he was walking along the Minories he saw the prosecutor, who appeared to be quite intoxicated, fall down evidently from drunkenness. A man went over to lift him him up, and the prisoner went to give his assistance also, upon whose appearance the first man went off. The prosecutor then seized the prisoner, - and charged him with the robbery. The witness having a lady under his protection did not go to the aid of the prosecutor. Mr...11_ ontxa ! jun. urged that this evidence was .a contradic- .tion to that of the prosecutor in its most material circumstances. The LORD NAlroft again questioned the prosecutor, who ad hered to his first statement, and his Lordship said that he consi dered himself bound to send the case to a Jury, and fully com mitted the prisonerfer trial. HATT ON- G ARDEN. --=Two men, John Hammond, alias Hamilton, and Jodeph Marshani, who were apprehended a few days ago, the former charged with committing an extensive rob bery in the King's Arms Hotel and Tavern, at Woolvyich, on the 15th of last December; the latter (who had been waiter in the house) with being an accomplice, were brought before the rani*. trates of this ofli; e, for examination, on Saturday last. — The pri soner, Hammon, on the afternoon the robbery was committed, ordered dinner at the prosecutor's house, and said he should sleep there. He was shown into a bed-room, and afterwards he took a walk. On his return he said he could not stop that night.— About an hour after he bad left the house, it was discovered that a room opposite to the one into which Hammond had been shown was broken open, and robbed of money, plate, &c. to the value of 1507. The prisoners were remanded, to give the pro secutor an opportunity of bringing forward further evidence against them. WORSHIP-STREET.-A LADY CHARGED WITH ROBBERY. Saturday, a middle-aged and fashionably-dressed female, 'the wife of a Director in a Government Office, was charged at this office with shoplifting. She gave her name Elizabeth Fore man.—Thomas Atkinson, shopman to Mr. Hopkins, linendraper and mercer, Shoreditch, deposed that the prisoner and another female (her daughter) came to the shop about five o'clock on Friday evening, and he shewed her some lace, of which she pm-- chased a piece value 2s. 7 1 1 d. He afterwards, at her desire, die played some halt stockings, of brown cotton, but with these she expressed herself dissatisfied, said she had bought much better at la. the pair (the price he had asked her), and refused to purchase. While she was sitting beside the counter, the witness saw her draw a pair of the stockings from the counter into her muff, which lay in her lap; knowing her as a customer at the shop, he was much surprised and embarrassed by her proceeding. He then asked her if he should show her any other article? She replied in . the negative, and paid him for the lace she had purchased.— He afterwards told her he was sorry to say he believed she had a pair of stockings in- her muff. She replied, " No, I have_ not but as the stockings were partly out of the muff, he reached across the counter and drew them out. He said he was sorry to find a person of her appearance guilty of such a transaction, and desired her to let him shake the muff to see if any thing else was concealed in it. She then, after withdrawing her right hand *from the muff, held it up and shook it herself with the left band. After this she offered him 2d. a-pair less than he had asked for 'the stockings, which he refused to take, and she prepared to leave the shop. While she was moving towards the door, the witness looked over the counter and observed a card of lace (pro duced) lying at the foot of the chair in which the prisoner sat, and he immediately passed round the counter and stopped her, saying, that he could not allow her to quit the shop until he had acquainted his employer with her proceedings. On searching her a pair of stocking s that she had been looking at w e re found ti g htl y rolled up in her hand. She was then gi ven into custody of the officer, Armstrong. 11 T hr.

The Ma gistrates ordered the prisoner (who was allowed a seat at the bar) to be committed ; but admitted her under Mr. Peel's late-Aet to bail in the sum of 2001. to answer the charge at the Sessions. UNION HALL. —In the course of Saturday, Hall, the Chief Officer of this establishment, took occasion to complain of some misrepresentations which had gone abroad, in respect of the ex pences in the prosecution of William Page and' Mary Ayres, who were committed on suspicion of being implicated in the murder of Akehurst and his housekeeper, at Fetchana. It had been asserted that he and his brother officers went down to the latter place in a chaise and four, paid for by the county. This was an untruth, for a ge ntleman, who was at the office, connected with the Morn ing Papers, being desirous of obtaining the earliest particulars of the murder, ordered an additional pair of horses to the chaise at his own expence, that he might go to FOtcham and back, with the utmost expedition. There was also another assertion which had gone abroad, concerning the expence to which the Baron de Tes sier had been put in the year 1818, in prosecuting a matt named Austin, who was charged with the murder of the Baron's game keeper. Now he (Hall) could not undertake to say what May, the chief officer of Union Hall, might receive, but with respect to himself, he would say that for all the trouble to which he was put in endeavouring to bring the murderers to jus tice, not one farthing had he ever received. He had that morning- been - •to May's widow. (May having died a short time after that murder), to ascertain what had been' paid to her husband, but she could not state. She, however, said that he was actually arrested a.short time previous to his decease, on ac count of the printer's expenses in printing bills and placards, of fering a reward for the apprehension of the murderer of Ely Cox, the gamekeeper. [Austin WAS tried and acquitted of the murder, but we under stand he confessed, when dying, which event happened recently, that he was guilty of the dreadful deed After some other ob servations respecting a watch transmitted to the office, from Guilford, which had been found in the possession of Cobbler who was apprehended and discharged in the course of the last week, on suspicion of having committed a highway robbery near that pf ac e, Hall added, that notwithstanding the Grand Jury had ignored the bill, he was still persuaded that Page and his com panion were concerned in the murder at Fetcham. Richard Chin, a young man who was until recently in the employ of Mr. Morris, a butcher, at Walworth, was brought be fore M. SWABEY, Esq. for final examination, charged with bur glariously entering his late master's house, and stealing (among other articles not produced) a coral necklace. v. The evidence was chiefly of a circumstantial nature, and may be thus briefly summed up : The prisoner was seen in the neighbourhood of the. prosecutor's about midnight, on the 23d December (the night the burglary was committed), and a few days afterwards, suspicion having attached to him, a search-warrant was obtained to search a house which he was in the habit of frequenting, when a pawnbroker's duplicate for a coral necklace, was found in the possession of a young girl named Edwards, to whom the prisoner had presented it, for the trouble she had taken in pledging the necklace for him. Some plate and linen were stolen at the time, but no traces to dis cover either could be made out, although Pople, the officer to whom the case was intrusted, had used great diligence in endeav ouring to find where they had been pledged or sold. The neck lace in question was distinctly sworn to, and it was stated to have been lying on a box in the room from whence the other stolen ar ticles were deposited.—Committed. MARRIED.
