FOR THE SUN. Stll—The occasion of my_ present address, is merely to suggest the propriety of direct ing in the proper quarter, a Thanksgiving to ALMIGHTY Gon in the form of a Prayer, to be read in the several Churches and Chapels, throughout the United Kingdom on Sundays, for the plentiful season, (certainly unprecedent ed in the present generation), as well as an ac- Inco.vledgment of the inestimable blessing of peace which we now enjoy. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your faithful and obedient servant, WM. HARWOOD FOLLIOTT. - The Rtght Hen. ROBERT PEEL, Se cretary of State for the Home De partment. , Chester, Ist October, 1825. MR. SHERIDAN. It is not so surprising that there should he some inaccuracies in Mr. MooßE's life of Mr. SHERIDAN, as that he should have been able to collect so much authentic matter, now that most of the parties concerned -are in the grave. Refer-- -ring to the funeral of Mr. RICHARDSON, Mr. IVIooRE says, " with a fidelity to his old habits -of unpunctuality, at which the stiade of RICHARD. -SON might have smiled, he (Mr. S.) arrived too late at Bagshot for the funeral of his friend." On this occasion Mr. SHERIDAN is wholly free from blame. The fact is exactly as follows :—The mourners were Mr. SHERIDAN, Mr. RICHARD IVILsoN, Doctor COMBE, and the writer of this article. The party called in a post-coach and 'four at Mr. SHERIDAN'S in George-street, Hanover-square.. He was ready and came to the door to say that he was obliged to wait upon the Duke of BEDFORD, hut would overtake us on the road. lie did so at Turnham-green, and 'then we hastened to Egham, (not Bagshot) and 'bad the mortification to find that the funeral had taken place. The time fixed was one o'clock, and the party reached the place at precisely a quarter after. The fault was in the undertaker, who had another funeral to attend, and there fore hurried this. Mr. SHERIDAN paced the church-yard with great dejection, observing that the fault would be imputed wholly to him, and that he should be ashamed to appear at BROOKS'S or to face the common friends of Mr. RICHARDSON, and himself. At this juncture, the clergyman who had performed the ceremony came into the church-yard, and being asked by one of the party • if the ceremony could cbe performed again, to satisfy the feelings of the friends of the deceased, he said he would ask his father, to whom he was Curate, and if he obtained permission he would return properly attired for the occasion. Hearing this Mr. SHERIDAN most anxiously ex pressed his wish that the ceremony might be re peated, stating who he was, and sending his most earnest entreaties to the father of the Clergyman for that purpose. In a few moments the Clergy man returned with his surplice on, and the funeral service was repeated with due solemnity in the church, and at the grave, without removal of the body. On returning it was settled that Mr. SHERIDAN should write an Epitaph on his depart td friend, and that Dr. COMBE should select a durable tomb-stone, but, alas, they too are in the grave,—no Epitaph was written, and No atone selectOtl, and the remains of Mr. RICHARDSON, a gentleman of .high talents, and deservedly ad mired for his classical attainments and literary eminence, are undistinguished by any memorial of his worth and genius ! On the return to town Mr. SHERIDAN, accompanied by the present 'writer, walked with great. dejection from Picca dilly to his house in George-street, in bitter agony deploring the death of one who, he said, was his friend and counsellor on all matters of a domestic as well as of a public nature, and the loss of whom, at his time of life, it was im possible for him ever to repair! RESURRECTION MEN.—SOMC short time since two of those ingenious gentlemen, in prowling round the suburbs of the Metropolis, heard of a Lady who was seriously ill, but the nature of her complaint her medical attendants were -amble to ascertain. She., however, shortly afterwards 'died, and in order to be " quite correct," the Resurrection men mixed up with the spectators at the burial, and took mea sures accordingly. Previous to the death of the Lady, the church-yard in the neighbourhood had been aisited, a subject disinterred and' carried of, and hence, the sick Lady became alarmed least her remains might meet with similar treat ment, and she made a dying request, that her grave might be watched for ten days and nights after interment. This was promised, and executed as folle7ws :—The person employed got four stout fellows with sheets and cudgels, to he used as occasion might require; and at 11 o'clock on the night of the funeral, he had two placed within the church, and two others on the road from Lon don. When nearly 12 o'clock, the latter perceiv ed a horse and cart with two men drive into a lane near the church-yard, who alighted quickly, carrying two spades, a small crow-bar, and sack ; with which they proceeded rapidly to the grave, and at once began their filthy occupation. While in the act, one of the guardians in the church stole out and placed himself at the gate 4 raising the- sheet on high with his cudgel, and the other took up his station by a headstone, a few yards from the operators, and then gave a hollow groan. They at once looked round, and petrified with fear and astonishment, beheld a tall and pale figure before them; a simultaneous movement brought them to the gate, where an _other figure no less horrible, appeared, and which motioned them to depart. On leaping the wall facing the lane, to get the horse and cart away, they perceived another figure about 12 . feet high standing upright in the cart. Amazement seized them, and they became rooted to the spot, when .the ghost at the gate coming up, they were soon convinced by the sturdiness of the blows dealt them, that something more substantial than aerial beings were the authors of their fright. Ultimately, they became indebted to their heels for safety, at the same time leaving their horse, cart, and impliments behind to the mercy of the " Ghosts." DUTCH AND GERNAN PAPERS. [Received last ' Night.] ST. PETERSBURG, OCT. 11-11 is Majesty the Emperor arrived on the 25th of September at Taganroy. The Empress Eliza passed on the 30th through Belgorod in Volhynia.— Though the season is so far advanced, the journey had a fa vourable effect on her ;11ajeity's health. Count Gurjew, who was Minister of Finance from 1808 to 1823, and afterwards Chief of the Imperial Cabinet and Mini.. ster of the Appanages, died yesterday, after a long and painfu I illness, aged 68 years. The St. Petersburgh Journal has copied from German Papers the accounts of the sale of some old Swedish men of war, " from which it appears that the whole affair is purely commer cial, and has nothing to do with politics." The Russian brig `Volga left New Archangel, in the island of Sitka, on the 16th May this year, and arrived on the 18th of June at Ochotzk, with a cargo of furs. Our Colonies on the N. W. coast were provided with all necessaries, and were on good terms with the neighbouring tribes. BERLIN, OcT.22.—His Majesty arrived at Potsdamron the 18th in excellent health. The Crown Prince and other Princes and chief officers of the Court had gone to 'Potsdam to receive his Majesty. HAGUE, OCT. 27. SECOND CHAMBER OF THE STATES GENERAL. Various Royal Decrees were read containing the nomination of M. de Coninck to be Minister for Foreign Affairs ; M. Van Gobbelschroy,.Minister of the Interior; and M. Elout, Mini ster of Finances and Colonies. The Minister of Finance presented four projects of law re lative to extraordinary expences for 1826, and the means of providing for them.—Referred to the Sections. FRANKFORT, OCT. 25.—Accounts from Manheim, of the 23d, say that the Rhine has risen nine feet in two days, in consequence, as was supposed, of the sudden rising of the lake of Constance. HAGUE, OCT. 27.—The Minister of the Marine invites the owners of ships destined to the West Indies, who are dis posed to freight the whole or part of their ships during 1826, at a moderate price, to carry coals to Curacoa, to apply per. sonally, or by letter, to the Board, as Amsterdam, Rotterdam, or Flushing, stating the particulars. His Majesty's frigate the Sambrb, pierced for 44 guns, was launched yesterday at Amsterdam. BRUSSELS, OCT. 25.—0 n the 21st of this month such a heavy snow fell at Beaumont, in Hainault, that vast damage was done in the forests by the breaking of the branches ; the fruits have also suffered severely. It is feared that similar damage has been done above Chimay. Some of our Journals contain a singular article, dated Paris, 9th October. It is inserted in the Courier du Puy: Bas, and since then in the Antwerp Commercial Journal. It is a petition, purporting to be addressed io his Majesty Charles X. by M. de Chaumont Quitry, formerly a Flag Officer in the French Navy. Two phrases are placed at the head of the address ; first, on the one side:— " I desire that my remains may repose on the banks of the Seine, in the midst of the French, Tyhom I have so much loved." And on the other side the words addressed by Louis XVIII. to those who lamented Napoleon .—" I esteem, I honour you more on this account." The author builds on this generous declaration of the late King, to supplicate his present Majesty to fulfil Napoleon's last wish. " Ifq" says the article in question, " what is not likely, the request of 11,1. de Chaumont, should be listened to at Paris, he would have make a second applicatintLin ment, which t,P. ptaced a military post at Napoleon's tomb, witti orders to keep guard over it night and day. AMERICAN PAPERS. NEW YORK. OCT. 5. LATEST FROM CHILL—The Baltimore Gazette of Tues day acknowledges the receipt of intelligence from Valparaiso to the 23d of June, and from Copiapa to the 12th of July ; by which it appears that the Spanish sloop of war Achilles had arrived at the former place, to which she had been carried by her crew, and delivered up to the Chilian Government. This vessel is the one which separated from the Asia, 74, and Con stante, with intention of returning to Spain, but it appears that the officers met with no better success in this attempt than the commanders of the other vessels. In addition to the foregoing (says the American), we, earn that a passenger in the Eagle reports that the northern section of Chili, including Coquimbo, had seceded from -the Chilian republic, in consequence of dissatisfaction at the proceedings of the Congress. We have endeavoured, but without success, to gain further particulars. A letter from St. Thomas of the 17th of September, mentions the execution of Pfeiffer and Hilyard, the two ringleaders of the gang of pirates detected in St. Thomas some months since. Pfeiffer was a black man. The coloured population present at the execution behaved remarkably well. .........------- _ FROM HAVANNAII.—The brig Hesper, from Havannah, brings information, that the transports with troops for the Castle of St. Juan de lllloa sailed on the 19th ult.

Mr. Addington, late Secretary of Legation, and Charge d'Affaires of the British Government to the United States, left Washington city a few days ago on his return to England. BALTIMORE, OCT. 3. MExico.—By the schooner Potosi, Captain Stevenson, ar rived at this port yesterday from .Alvarado, we have received the El Mercurio, of Alvarado, of the 7th ult.; and several numbers of the Agiena Mexicana, of the city of Mexico, to the, 31st of August. A friend who has examined them informs that they contain no news. General St. Anna has left the capital for Jalapa, by permis sion of the Government, on account of ill health. _ _ In the city of Durango an epidemic had carried off 256 per. sons from the Ist to the 16th of August.

GALE AT THE BAHAMAS.--TO the attention of Captain Waters, of the schooner Enterprise, at this port yesterday, in nine days from Nassau, the editors of the American are in debted for a file of the Nassau Royal Gazette, to the 21st of September inclusive. From these papers we extract the follow ing disastrous accounts of a gale experienced there :- NASSAU, SEPT. 8. Our paper was thus far in type by two o'clock yesterday, when the wind increased to little short of a hurricane. The storm, blowing from the N.E., continued to increase in vio lence until after midnight - , when the wind veered roundloN.W. and was then accompanied with heavy rain, and did not, abate in any considerable degree until seven o'clock this morning. - . The schooner Mary Elizabeth, which arrived yesterday; is on shore, as is also the cutter Mary, from Liverpool ; and seve ral of the small craft have been drove onshore. SEPTEMBEIIIO. We are gratified to find that Captain Prudden and the other persons who, at considerable risk, went off on Tuesday laSt to the assistance of the French ship Arethuse at the west end, have. returned safe, after having been the Means ' in a great measure, Of preserving tbe lives of the master and crew. As was ex pected, from the violence of the weather, the ship parted her cables and went on shore about two o'clock on Wednesday, and soon bilged. Of the cargo, which consisted of sugar, coffee, cotton and hides, but very little has been saved and brought to town. The cutter Mary, Brown, master, which drove on shore in the harbour, is full of water, and her cargo has been landed in a damaged state. The schooner Mary Elizabeth, which was also on shore, has been got off, and her cargo landed with little damage. We have not yet heard of any other vessels, except a few small craft, having been blown on shore, but there is little doubt but we shall have some melancholy account yet to give, if the gale was as violent in other quarters as it was here. We have heard of no serious injury having been done to the.houses in and about town, except the piazza of Mrs. Taylor's house on the hill, which was blown away on Wednesday night. Some fences were thrown dowii, and the trees both for ornament and fruit have suffered severely. SEPTEMBER 14. The French ship which was wrecked in the gale of the 7th instant, at the west of the island, was l'Orthezien, Petridinean, master., " The American brig Patriot, Hopkins, from Boston bound to Havannab, has been wrecked at Abaco. The cargo has been saved and brought to port, and the master and crew have also arrived here. SEPTEMBER 17. The American sloop Friendship, Bishop, on her voyage from Philadelphia to this port, encountered a severe gale, in which she wasiothrown on her beam ends, when it became necessary to cut away the mast for. the preservation of the vessel, and she arrived under a jury mast, made out of her boom. The American schooner Sisters, L. A, Hardie, master, from Philadelphia, bound for Tampicos, in the late stormy weather was inside the; reef at the S.W. part of Egg Island on the 7th instant, and,woald have been lost during the night but for the timely assistance of his Majesty's: cutter Chatham, Mr. Rea commanding, who, on discovering her, piloted her into Royal Island harbour, from whence she proceeded on her voyage when the weather became moderate. The brig Venus, of Key West, William Smith, master, from Batirnore :bound to Key 'West with a cargo of flour , &c ., has been wreaced;ar the Elbow Key, Abaco ; very little of the cargo .has b saved ; the master and crew have ar rived here. The schooner'Eclipse, of New York, John Alanshaen, mas ter, on a voyage tiom Charleston to the Havannah, has also been wrecked at Abaco, and but very little of the cargo saved. The master, crew, and passengers have arrived here. SEPTEMBER'I2. The brigantine Mary Ann, of this port, T. Russell master, sailed from hence on the 31st ult., and was wrecked on the 6th instant on one of the Exuma Keys, on her way to Ragged Island, where. she was to take in a load of salt for Darien, in Georgia. The vessel was in a short time dashed to pieces, but the master and crew with great difficulty escaped to the shore, where they remained without having saved any provisions from the wreck, subsisting all that time on shell-fish and palmeto cabbage. A small schooner from Exuma, in passing the place, observed the signals, and brought Captain Russell and his crew to town on Satnrday night. Captain Waters reports that the accounts from the islands were very distressing—houses, &c., blown down, and several families obliged to take shelter under one roof. No intelligence had been received from the Windward Islands. The mail boat was due several (lays, and had not arrived when he left. It was generally believed that the hurricane had been severely felt in that- quarter. THE ARMY. WoitcusTEn, OcT. 21.—Tne Worcestershire Regiment of. Regular Militia, having finished their date of service in this city, were inspected by Colonel Newport Charlett, on Wed nesday, in Pitchcroft Ham. The Lieutenant-C4Onel - , Lord Deerhurst, having marched them by their Commanding Of ficer, and gone through the general salute, theer were after wards thrown into open column for the inspection of their Colonel, vdto„. --Pee.e.-so-h.extootttlY to express himself 1 zesty sattsneot with their appearance, both is. :be field and quarters, since they have been called up for the period of ser vice ordered by Government. We must here as peaceful in habitants of this city, add our testimony to that of several of our Magistrates, to the general good conduct and denieanour of this corps.—ln the Journal of yesterday, it was intimated that a piece of plate would be presented by the Officer of the Regiment to the Colonel, as a token of their respect for him. It had been originally decided to do this by letter, and a com munication to this effect had been made. to Colonel Charlett bt Major Bund, then senior officer of the regiment, in the ab sence of the Lieutenant-Colonel. Lord Deerhurst having,' however,. joined his brother officers, it was finally agreed that the salver should be presented to Colonel Charlett, viva voce, after dinner, in presence of the officers of the regiment.—The usual toasts to the Royal Family having been drank, the Ser geant-Major, flanked by two old Serjeants of the regiment, en tered the room, carrying the salver, when his Lordship ad dressed the Colonel as follows: " COLONEL NEWPORT CHARLETT—It falls to me, as senior officer, to perform one of the most pleasing duties I ever yet experienced in my life, in presenting to you, on be half of my brother officers and myself, this Salver—a small tribute of our esteem and respect for you. There is no occa sion for any lengthened speech from me ; the force of language could convey no compliment—no sentiment, expressive our re gard, equal to what is contained in the. short page engraved upon this gift—carrying to your mind a volume in reference to the feeling by which we are unanimously animated. Long may you live to view this emblem of our gratitude; and when, in the ccairse of nature, it is handed to your posterity, may they ever cherish the memory of one who, at the hands of those most intimately acquainted with his worth, received this une quivocal mark of approbation in the distinguished character of an Officer and a Gentleman." As soon as the cheers which spontaneously followed this address had subsided, Colonel Charlett, evidently feeling what a soldier ought upon such an occasion, briefly replied to his Lordship— " I accept, with heart-felt gratitude, this token of the esteem and regard of my brother officers. To the latest period of my life, the reflection that I have received this mark of appro bation from them will be indelibly and lastingly impressed upon my mind." We need not add how sensibly all parties were gratified, or how convivially the remainder of the evening was spent in one strain of loyalty and reciprocal good understanding. The following letter was afterwards addressed by Col. Char. lett to the Lieut.-Col. Lord Deerhurst : My Dear Lord, Worcester, 215th Oct. 1825. Having, under the impression of my feelings, too shortly, perhaps, addressed your Lordship on receiving the very hand some token from my brother officers, I am induced to take this method of further conveying to you how deeply sensible I am of the very flattering and distinguished honour in which they have testified their approbation of my conduct. It is, - my Lord, to the congenial spirit of harmony and co-operation with which my brother officers have so promptly and effectually enabled me to discharge - the 'manifold mid complicated' duties of the high situation I have so long had the honour to fill, that the Wor cestershire Regular Militia has maintained that system of dis cipline for which it has ever been distinguished. I may here vainly be permitted to add, that in the execution of so important a trpst, I have at all times done my best ; and the consciousness of my own good intentions, if I have erred, will exonerate me from self-reproach. With a grateful impression of the sincere affection my brother officers have shewn towards me, and to your Lordship more par ticularly, I beg to subscribe myself, Illy dear Lord, Your ever faithful Servant, J. N. CHARLEVT, Col. Wor. Reg. Vis. Deerhurst, Lieut.-Col. Wor. Reg. e The Salver, which is very chaste, and of the value of 100 gs. bears the following inscription ; This Salver was presented To Colonel J. W. Newport Charlett, By the Officers of the Worcestershire Regular Militia, As a mark of the high sense they entertain Of that Urbanity of Manners And strict attention to Military discipline, Which, during a series of years, Ilas uniformly characterized his conduct As an Officer and a Gentleman, Oct. 27, 1825. The officers' mess has been regularly held at the Hop-Pole Inn, where numerous parties of private friends have attended. Great praise is due to Mr. ,Toigcs for the manner in which the dinners have been served up, as likewise for the excellency of his wines. POLICE INTELLIGENGE. • THE GWENNAPPE MINING COMPANY. MaNstox-HousE.— Yesterday the Shareholders in this Company applied in a body to the Lord Mayor, and repre sented.the hopeless condition of their property in terms similar wa r s to those in which they addressed Alderman Ansley on Sa t. They requested that the Lord Mayor would gra nt against the Directors for obtaining their money under pretences : at least, they hoped, that summonses a .wouid he served upon the Noblemen and Gentlemen' whose names flourished in the prospectus, in order that the affairs of the Com pany might be fairly laid before the public. Since the appli cation to Alderman Ansley they had met Doctor Price, one of the Directors, and addressed him upon the subject ; but the -Doctor " blowed them up, and told them they might do their best or their worst, which ever they pleased—he did not care a straw about 'em," and he would not tell them a word about the affairs of the Company. They also applied to the Solicitors, who were men of high respectability ; hut those gentlemen said that the business was brought to them in the ordinary way as all other busines was placed in their hands, and they had no power to act except upon the instructions given by the parties who employed them. They then went to the house of Messrs. Everett and Walker, who expressed their willingness to do any thing in their power to forward a just demand; and intimated that they were about to take Counsel's opinion upon the subject (as we understood the shareholders) of paying off the money in their hands, without the authority of the Directors, but the ap plicants were convinced, from the menacing and contemptuous tone of the Doctor, that some manoeuvre was contemplated with regard to the money, if a " rig" had not already actually taken place. The Lord Mayor—You had better, perhaps, call a meeting of the proprietors, and examine the affairs. A Shareholder—We have had a sufficient meeting amongst ourselves,, and we sufficiently understand each other's senti ments on the subject. A second—There are not more than thirty of us altogether, and yet we can get no satisfaction. We have every reason to suppose that our money has been made use of_ to buy in the shares at a .premium in the market, or to " carry on the war" in other Companies, in which there might be greater chance of a successful " rig." It is upon this we ground our charge ; we are convinced that not a farthing was intended to be ex pended in digging for tin or copper. A third Shareholder said, that a Resolution had been passed, which enabled three of the Directors to draw the money out of the banker's hands. This was what alarmed them most, after what they had heard in the morning. The Loh]) MaYox declared that he could do nothing for the applicants. He could scarcely imagine it possible that with so slight a knowledge, or rather without any knowledge at all, of the nature of the speculation and the parties engaged in it, the shareholders ever could have thought o f p urchasin g with the view of making a bona fide investment. They could not, indeed, have made the venture without the expectation that a higher premium would be given than they paid, and then the probability would be, they would have sold them and put the ready money in their pockets, leaving the Company and its concerns to take care of themselves. Some years ago he was induced himself to subscribe to a bonalde undertaking (not a wild thing of this kind) the utility of which was more mani fest than had been lately requisite, to induce persons to em bark in speculation. It was for the formation of a Canal ; the shareholders were called upon to advance from 101. to 601. upon each share, and when the deposit reached the latter sum he -would gladly have given. up the whole of, the money to be excused from advancing more; but he was obliged to con tinue the payments, and,the shares, which at that time appear ed to be considerably worse than nothing, were now worth 100 guineas each. A Shareholder—ln all probability, in your Lordship's case, there was a deed of settlement. The LORD MAYOR—Certainly there was. Shareholder—ln this case there was no deed_ whatever enter ed into. The Loan MAYOR—WeII, if men will be so eager as to advance their money without waiting, or caring, for any of these necessary steps, I certainly cannot pity them. After having consulted with Mr. Hobler, who expressed his opinion that the complainants might proceed by indictment, his Lordship said, he was decidedly of opinion that lie could not :erfere, and the shareholders retired. . THE GLOUCESTER-PLACE SWINDLERS. Yesterday Mr. MARTIN, the Member for Gaiway, attended. at 11laRYLEBONE POLICE OFFICE to give the necessary ex planation in regard to the favourable character he gave of the. swindler Ireland, who had in consequence obtained possession of Capt. Burton's house in Gloucester-place, and defrauded various tradespeople to a great amount, as stated in our Paper of yesterday. After stating, that as soon as he had discovered the dishonest proceedings of Ireland, lie took all possible steps to expose his villainy, Mr. Martin thus proceeded :1 1 sWhen I left Galway a short time before the opening of the last Session of Parliament, Ireland was living in the town of Gaiway in perfectly good credit. Mr. Rawarszsosta—How is that possible, when I have plenty of proof here, that the very same man kept a little grocer or chandler's shop in the vicinity of Whitechapel. Perhaps you are mistaken in the man. Mr. Martin—l cannot be mistaken. I know it is the same person. I will give you, Sir, what I have given Mr. Marsh , the very same character which the merchants, principal per sons, and trailers of Galway, would have given him. He was worth bet Ween five and six thousand pounds, and was consi dered a saving, careful, penurious man, capable and willing to pay ; and I again say, that when I gave , him this character considered him capable of paying any tiling he contracted to pay, and on Marsh applying to me I stated the same. Mr. Rawaufsosr—Well, if you know this min to be penu rious, did it not occur to you as something very strange that such a man should take so expensive a house ? Mr. Martin—l will tell you, Sir ; I asked him as follows " Mr. Ireland, what is your motive fbr taking this house ?" I had at the moment an impression on my mind that lie intended to let it. When Mr. Marsh told me he was ordering the wines, and plate, and things, which were not wanting, I then pro nounced him to be a villainous swindler, and thought it full time to put a stop to his tricks, and put him out of possession,. I went to the house and saw the housekeeper, and told her that they had got hold of her as she looked respectable, in order to coun tenance their depredations. To return to the poina—Every man in the town of Galway would have given - him the same character as I have done. He, I heard, purchased from Sir John Blake a quarry, which must have cost him a considerable sum of money. There were vessels came into the port - consigned to him, and'he seemed, as every body thought him to be, a re spectable man. Now, Sir, - 1 never supposed him to be a swindler. Mr. Marsh came to me, and then I cautioned every body against him. Indeed 1 cannot consider myself, I beg to say, imposed upon by this man, who, to all appearance, was twelve months since what I stated. I haye brought the letters, and they are at your disposal. Mr. RAW LI NSON—I have no right to break the seals, and my only object is to apprehend him. Mr. Martin, in reply to some observation, said, I suppose the scoundrel swindler will fix his bail. Mr. RAW LIN SON observed, lie was glad the Hon. Gentle man had come 'forward in this manner, as the publicity would do away with any unfavourable rumour. • Mr. Martin—Yes, Sir; I hope what has transpired this day, will travel throughout the kingdom and to Ireland. Mr. RawLiNsoN said, it was very strange, but he had do cuments in his possession shewing he , was living in London about the time alluded to by Mr. Martin. A Gentleman said, Ponsonby had given Ireland to him nine months since as a reference.. Mr. Martin—Well, then, it was the opinion in Galway, that he Vas. a saving, sdvent,.penurious man. 1, Mr. RAW LI N SON— I have also a load of Irish duplicates shewing that, before the time you mention, he was in extreme poverty in Dublin, having pawned his shirts, shoes, and stock ings ; indeed I have proofs which go further than that. Mr. Nanin again repeated the opinion of the men of Gal way as tolrelatid's character and stability. Mr. RAW LINSON observed, the "men of Galway" must be extremely credulous. Mr. Martin—The moment I heard from Mr. Marsh, I pro. flounced him to be a scoundrel and a swindler; and I will do all I can to bring him to justice. Mr. RAWLINSON—We are only at variance upon one point, your original referencegot him into this house, which enabled him to Practise all the frauds s'i7e. Mr. Martin.—Possibly so. ate was considered, 1 again say, a close monied man in Galway. I gave this reference, under that impression, and regret much he should have proved him self to be so base a character. The Hon. Gentleman bowed, and left the office.' During the day, many applications of persons who had been duped, some very extensively, were made. A DEAR BAItGAIN.—At a sitting of the Ma gistrates at Brighton, last week, an information was laid by the Officers of the Customs against the daughter of a very respectable inhabitant, for having a quantity of foreign velvet in her pos session, when the fair offender was convicted in the penalty of 561. 15s. being triple, the value of the goods. 1 Hhds West India {Trs Bis Sugar Brazil - Chest • Havanah Aoxes East India & 1 Bags Illituritius j Casks f Pns 1 .
