FO I THE SUN. ON THE IRISH LANGUAGE. Mr. Enrrott—Like almost every new theory, the existence of which can rest only upon con jecture, the opinion of Colonel VALLANer.v,rela tive to the punk of igin of the Irish Language, has been warmly supported by some Authors, and no less strongly combated by others. - indeed, by making only i some very slight changes in the disposition of, the celebrated pas sige iii FLAuTUS, he has been enabled to make it good Irish—if Was no less satisfactorily proved to j-''bvlong oto . a very ail Brent language by the ern. ; believe, that the. most ae •x:-erall at any rate, opposed to the :in , -2pniorts. conclusions of the Colonel. In this state - 4Veie'qtrestion, and wholly Undecided v sen ,tirn.ent should_s'afely be adopted, I was surprised, row days since, to heat the following fact, which, if. ape.; must throw. do inconSider . able light upon —this interesting subject:: A gentleman, whose knOWledgeiand judgment I" respect, and' Upon whose . veracity I can fully , rely, informed me, • that having met %lith one of the natives of Mu- TC.O, who haVe visited this country for . the laud "able purposes of instruction, lie was told by this . . person, 'that in his journey through sorne parts of li..eland, he was . surprh•ed to discover . that the - . ..lanErna , e or .the natives bore a very strong y'e , .blanCe to one of the three d alerts spoken in - the . . -.-.eimpire of Morocco ! If this statement be really -'•Correct, and if this African had no previon , knowledge of Colonel V allancoy's opinion, this sir gular fact is .strongly in its_ favour, and,,as h. merits the attention of every inquisitive If the Sentiment of the Colonel, can be atcested with success, upon the ground.of impro bability, it, may still make a successful stand, upon that of po4ihility. Such must have *been •the connection between Carthage and the inter parts of Africa, not only through the medium of commerce, but also through that of the merce naries which she hired from those regions to light her battles in the field,, that it i's not impossible some traces of her language should there be - found. If we add to this, the-still greater pro bability, that sonic of . her citizens . sought, amidst the mountainous regions of Atlas, a safe asylum • from the destructive sword of the Romans, ~,our opinion will acquire additional' streng'h., On the other hand, along with the language of their mother country, the Carthagenians carried with. them into Africa the commercial genius, and that adventurous. spirit u hich had laid the foun • dation of the greatness of Tyre, and which ren . aered Carthage the formidable rival of Rome. . Sicily, Sardinia, &c., were subjected by these powerful traders, who likeuise colonized the , :shores of Spain. In this latter respect, indeed, • they seem to have differed from the Phenicians and Tyrians; who do not appear to be the foun ders of many Colonies. That both these people carried on a trade with the Cassiteridw Islands, . and that those Islands were - England and Ire land, can no more be 'doubted than that these places were visited for the same purpose by their, stl4.l,Stoi 75, the Cdt that.,rAitano.; -bee t this difference, that the latter pursued here their usbal practice of colonization, and consequently introduced their language into those 'parts. The political convulsions which agitated - England at. each of its. successive conquests, and the conse quent introduction of new races and of new lan guages, may account for the total extirpation of the Panic, which, though greatly disfigured, may have retained some of its leading features in the sister 1(4%41 - T4 :where it may have been more gene rally dissrmina.ted, and in which the original po -7 : Pulation has been much less affected by any fo i feigri admixture. Considered under this poiut of - - view, the opinion of Colonel VALLANCEY loses uanch of its supposed improbability ; and could . the truth of the singular circumstance I have .•taken the liberty of sending you be fully ascer -I,tained, it would amount to a confirmation of . what he has so ingeniously advanced. I am, Sir, your's, &c. Paddington Hottse. A. P. NAPLES, DECK 20. The following is a Translation of a Letter which has excited considerable interest among the'tiatural philosophers of this City : COSENZA. cc On the 29th Nov. list, about half-Past• six in the evening (un 'ara e mezzo della notte);there „Suddenly appeared on the west of the horizon a ••luminous body more brilliant than the moon at its full. This body had the figure of a dragon. After passing with great velocity across the hori- , ZOll, it changed into a dark and thick cloud. After 3 or 4 minutes • several violent flashes of 'lightning burst from the clOutf,.which, after play ing awhile through the air, died awn.- .In the moment of .their disappearance a long and loud peal•of thunder was. heard, and a considerable 'motion was felt in the air. The cloud then took a : triangular figure, and rolling rapidly to . the :east,. disappeared. On the following morning the 'mountains to the east were found covered .with'snoW,althougli the 'weather had been very mild. Where it exploded there remained a long 'via lattera near the cloud. • My opinion is, that it was a meteor com posed of the same tnaterials as lightning. N e i_ • 'ther it nor its :precipitations fell in direct lines, .becanse.their specific gravity was less than. that Of the air. On the tops of ,the mountains it .was met by lvinds-which dissolved it into snow." • ThiS luminous body wag visible at Naples, but noire of its characteristics were .observed : in some parts of Calabria . and • o n the p art. Opposite, we hayelteard that its : appearances were marct.singular• than' titose .clescribed in the fore going •letter. 7 • • it is said, that one ni•ight's performance will. be given at every Theatre in Is.,ngland, Scotland, and Ireland, the 'profits of which are• to be appro. uiiated tb the - fund for erecting the' bational mo nument to . the thenibry of SI AKsPEIRE, ar Stiat ford.-upon-Avon. . • • • : p•••• • I I CO • ••••• I "2 a: ___l.2._ 4 t 0 A,. • I t z I w 4 -4 I " ) I 4E71 « :, a- ~_ INCOME and .

Extract of a Letter from Gibraltar, Dec. 18. ---- 7 - 1 - egterflay was a.' scene of riot ,and confusion at St. Roque, in thisneighhourhOod, on the oc casion of electing a corridor (Magistrate) and Town Council. The country people all assem bled in the morning in the church, where it seems the election takes place, when an i atfray began between these and the townsmen and militia ; knives, muskets, and bludgeons, being- the wea pons. The former chased the militia away, and order was only restored by a company of the re gin-lent of Gallicia, quartered in the neighbour hood,:who came in : the casualties are, one man killed, and four wounded. There seems to be a spirit now brooding among the lowers in Spain, that may produce fatal consequences hereafter— they wear publicly in their hats a green ribband, with the inscription,— The Constitution or Death.' " According to the most recent accounts from the coast of Barbary, a contest for the sovereignty is carrying - on in the Empire of Morocco. The new candidate fur the throne is Muley Ishmael, the son of the celebrated Muley Yezzied, and nephew to the reigning' Emperor. The struggle is likely to he of short duration, as the army have declared for Muley Ishmael, who has been publicly proclaimed anl crowned - in Fez, where he has taken up his residence. The old Empe ror has not, however, been yet dispossessed of his power, so that there are two Emperors —one at Fez, the other at Morocco. An official an nouncement has been issued by the Governor of Gibraltar, ifeclaring the coast of Barbnry free from the plague. The disturbed state of the country is likely, however, for some time, to throw.impeditnents in the way of the - commercial intercourse with Morocco." CAPE Or GOOD HOPE. Letters and Papers from the Cape,' 'of Good Hope to the 2‘...)d of October, are satisfactory in all points of view, but especially with a refe rence to the new settlement at Algoa Bay. His Excellency the Governor, Sir. It: S. Donkin, was taking•some effectual measures to place the coin age of the Colony upon a better footing, and on the 13th of October he issned.a Proclamation for destroying a very large quantityof base money. He has also taken measures to . coMmunicate to the new settlers from England the full .benefit of the Courts of Justice established in that quarter Of the world. This fact will best appear froth the following 'Proclamation, inserted in the Cape Town Gazette : • - • - • • PROCLAMATION, . . By his •Excellency 'Major-Genet al BUFANE'SUAWE DONK IN. Knight, &c. Acting Girrernor 'and Coninianding'in Chief his MAJEsiv's 'Forces at the Cape of Good Hopei &e. Ste.

A MEETING of the General ,VOmmittee took place yesterday, for the put priie of considering the propriety of placing the sum of 0,001. at the disposal of the Sob-Com mittee, who last winter applied 10001, of the General Fund in the 'chef of the destitute at their own homes. The attend ance was numerous, and the Chair having been taken by Sir JOHN LUBRoCK, Mr. DORNFOtiII rose and observed, that as what had been done last year in this hranCh of relief, 'would be the best pledge for the future, he was desirous that the report of the Destitute Committee, toade at the conclusion of their labours, should be read, which was accordingly dune by the Secretary. Mr. Dortworm, then moved, that the suns of 5001. be granted to the Committee for the sante purposes. The motion was supported by Mr. Brock, Mr. Freud, and Mr. Freese, and 'oppesed by Mr. Campbell, Mr. Goldsmid, Mr. Gould, Mr. Powuall, and other Members. Mr. GoLossttn, in an animated speech, called upon the Committee to confine their attention to the original object of the subscription ; to chew what their object was, he ob served, it was only necessary to read to the Committee the resolutions entered into at Sir. Hide's warehouses, when the first Public Meeting was held upon this knhject, which • Resolutions were the productionS of their Honorary Secre tary, whose correctness upon all occasions they Were well aware of. Mr. Goldsmid then read them, and argued forcibly against the present grant, is a depai tore from their true spirit -and intention, although he was prepared fully to adroit that the money roteirto the Destitute Committee last year had been expended in the most cautious and judicious manner. Mr,litex was fur voting a smaller sum than that proposed, but a general feeling adverse to the principle appeared to per vade the Meeting. BooarN, the Secretary, said that, with every'disposi- Tim! in favour of the Committee, whose exertions last year he warmly eulogised, he could not bring himself to sore for the grant now proposed.
