SERRES.—ThIS Lady, who styles her self the Princess of CUMBERLAND, has recently announced pretensions to the Ciown of Poland, alleging that she is lineally descended from STANISLAUS, the last King of that country. There was another lady who had tried her fortune on the stage without success, and who a few years ago claimed the patronage of Government, upon the plea that she could trace her descent from ST. GFORGE of Cappadocia, the protecting Saint of this country. A third, it seems, now in this country, professes to be descended from the an cestors of one of the Continental Sovereigns. As to Mrs. SERRES, our Royal Family, as well as the Government, are interested in the investiga tion of her claims, since they cannot be indif ferent to the fate of a 44 Cousin," and Government are bound to ascertain the validity of her claim to a considerable sum which she affirms to have been left to her by his late -MAJESTY. PRISON DISCIPLINE.. A " 6 CORRESPONDENT" observes, that he sees not the neces,ity for any reply to the Strictures from " Hertford" beyond a recommendation to our Readers to his communication,and to cpmpnre it with the Strictures —a communication, two thirds of which consist of an extract from a Newspaper, for the truth or inaccuracy of which he cannot be responsible, the probability of its correctness being also ad mitted by the Strictures ; whilst the eight or ten lines of Introduction actually stipulate for Hard Labour as a counterpoise to the effects of com forts superior to those which many of the pri soners possess at home. That such a superiority in regard to air, cleanliness, goodness of food, regularity of meals, medical attendance, does exist in many cases, has been stated too' often in the English Papers to be doubted—one case very recently—but do the half dozen lines of Introduction quarrel with this ? What is the extent of the animadversion ? Why, that if " the best of every thing" (quoted from memory) " shall be supplied without the accompaniment of the best of hard work,", then the consequences must be pernicious, as holding out a premium on committal for small offences whose punishment on conviction may be only an extension of impri sonment! Does the communication fairly admit of any meaning beyond , this ?—a meaning ac tually contended for even by those Strictures.— Does it make an attack on Ireland, as Ireland? Does it even make an attack on Prison Disci pline, except where hard labour is not joined to improved comforts ? What then becomes of the dilemma about Carrickfergus Gaol ?—of the " amende honorable"—of the " apology"—of the misrepresentations" ?—Gone ! and, like the baseless fabric of a vision, left not a wreck behind ! The equestrian statue of his Majesty, GEO not THE THIRD, may shortly be expected to be added to the other ornaments of Liverpool.

GRAND FANCY BALL. - EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM DUN/3-ANNO2(.--L" On Monday the Ist inst. we had one of the most brilliant and fas cinating assemblies here that ever has been known in' the vici nity of Dungannon—Viscountese Northland'sfaney ball. The invitations to thiii splendid entertainment were•widely extended., and the company composed of the, Nobility, Gentry; and fashion of the province. The dresses were superb, the Ladies could not be surpassed in elegance and taste, the handsome, young and gay, but moved on " fancy's wing," and the Gentle men were not deficient in grand and costly attire. This festive scene was much enlightened by many excellent, well-dressed and admirably sunported characters, kept up with unabated spirit to an early hour in the morning. The numerous party in Northland House exerted themsAvzs to ehe utmost to give life and effect to the ball; aiid'every succeeding hour sent forth successive new characters, successfully entertaining, vieing who would most contribute to the entertainment of their noble and hospitable hostess. The rooms are Well suited for :the occasion, and were tastefully laid out ; an awning ran along the windows for all sorts of refreshments—Musie was well ar ranged in proper places for dancing. Near 30 sat down to supper, which came in like magic, and occupied the dancing ground , with every thing the appetite could desire.—We can not but applaud the liberality and hospitality with which this entertainment was conducted, and extol the advantages arising from it. Such-distribution of income produces the Most desir able means of relief in the country, affords support to the in dustrious, and gives life and efficacy to trade and mannfeetere. Such are the happy results arising from the r e sid e n ce o f land lords; and such is the value to be derived from the intercourse sa important to be kept up by the Nobility and Gentry of Ire land.—But the benefits-arising from this entertainment were not merely local ; when the Nobility of the province were Put into motion, their purses must more or less keep time ; all must .prepare fer.their appearance,-and the line' of approach from the surrounding territory must be prefitableepatteeere is the Cere mony.

M olt ANnaE.----We are requested, by one of the family of this gallant but unfortunate offi cer, to contradict a paragraph which NVe copied on Monday from a Portsmouth Paper, stating, that " his remains had - been sent to England in compliance with the request of his family." The family, we are assured, have not in the least, de gree interfered on the occasion.--( Evening Paper.) At the Town-ball, Truro, on Thursday last, fourteen baker-publicans, chiefly from Cam boan, were brought up, for giving away beer, but making their customers pay the usual price charged for strong beer, on receiving a biscuit. Their case lir vinq, been gone Through, they were fined 101. each for selling beer without a license. . , ATTEMPTED SUlClDE.—YeSterday a man was observed at Pepper-alley Stairs, •Bankside, parading backwards and for wards, in such a manner, as to create a suspicion . that he meditated suicide.

The remains of the late Mr. RENNIE are to be interred in Saint Paul's Cathedral on Tuesday next, about twelve o'clock. titt4llllit WitlG CI,LiB; rIRST GENERAL MEETING • [FROBI THE CiTESTER GUARDIAN. The first General Meeting of this Club WaS held at the Royal Hotel, in this city, on Tues day last: Ninety4ve Gentlemen sat down to an ext 4 .ellent ilintier a little before Six o'clock, with that venerable Noblenian Lord CREiVE, iu the Chair; and 6EdRGE Wri.unAn.im, Esq. Vice President. A meeting was previously held for dispatch of business, when letters Were read from a number of gentlemen, expressing great regret at being prevented from attending this first Meeting, and their hearty rood wishes for its success. At the suggestion of several Mem bers from the adjoining district, the title of the Club was changed from the " Cheshiie Whig Club'? to the'" Whig Club of Cheshire and the neighbOuring . Counties." It was also resolved, that the next; Annual Meeting be held on the 9th October, 1822, Earl GROSVENOn j President, and Admiral Tott:EmAcite, Vice-President. We observed present Lords Crewe, Grosvenor, An son', Sir H.:E. Bunbury, Sir J. Stanley, the lion. Robert Grosvenor l and other persons of distinc tion.—The cloth being removed, " Non Nollis Domino" was sung by three Gentlemen from Liverpool. The first toasts given from the Chair were—A' . The King" [ appl luso.] " The Royal Family and the principles that placed them Gn the Throne" [applause.] .- " Civil and Religious Liberty all over the World" [great ap planse.] " The Whigs of the Empire" [applause.] "'Trial by Jury" [applause.] " The Freedom of the Press" [this toast was received• with loud continued app.'s se.] " The Immortal Memory of Charles James Fox" [the rria.n ner in which this toast was received- spewed that the Meeting fully appreciated the talents and political principles of this great man.] . , Lord - CnEwr.... t'.1.11 rose ana said ,tnat had to propose the health of his Nohle. Friend on' his right hand, and he bad not the least doubt but that when it was announced it would be re ceived. with that enthusiasm it so groatly deserved, he meant the Health of Lord Grosvenor. On .ht, unnounu_inentef Lord Grosvezior's name, the applause from all parts of the room ex ceeded all that had preceded it, and continued for several minutes. Lord Onosssaresesa then mace and said, he returned them his most sdecare thanks for the high honour they had just con ferred on him by thinking hip health, especially when accom panied in soeh a flattering manner. He would just make a few observations upon the importance of the day anti the occasion on which they were met; an occasion as honourahl eto the S% higt lob alit wasto the county and country in general. They were met to celebrate and to keep alive in their minds the general feclinga of the Constitution as established by their ancestors in the year 168 , 3, and when he mentioned 'Oa glorious struggle between liberty and slavery, between . passive obedience andnon,ies:st amen and the assertionbecame our rights as becae British freemen, he begged their courtesy for a few moments, while he Made a few. observations on the principles of the British Constitution, which this Club vies eetalelislied to . preserve and he had no doubt that lee' should receive the 'friction of those around him when he • said that those principles animated the greet body of the peinele generally.-(Applause,)—lteeuld net he said that they tii). not act op to the •ptinsieles they - professed when he witnessed the enthusiasm with wlheh the fernier toasts given by . the Clod:lsiah had been received, 'he Means—The trial by Jury—Li:?; , :ty,. civil and religious, all oyer the world—Th":?. Freedom of 'the Pressa-and The Memory of a distinguished and immortal . Patriot (applause). From the low tone of voice iirwhich the Noble Lord spoke, we were unable to catch the next sentenee; but understood his topic of diseouree to be a Reform in the Commons House of harliament. One thingea.o partleillar. to which he alluded, and tOliedi he would press most. serioesla :non their attention, was the reduction of sinecure Nieces, field , ey those who had seats in the Commons HOWZ:.! of It s:ldoui.fellta his lot to encounter hersonally the advocates of this'aysteni ; but, unhappily, the ehiirts of self and his friends had hitherto been unavailing, in their en desieour to suppress such an odious and abominable system. He_ hoped the. dayares not 'far distant when the 3•lieistees would be oblieed to feel that they were responsible for their deeds ; smith:high they ought not to be too sanguine in their hopes, yet still etc loo t ; the Ministers might. be made to stoop and own a power superter to their own; and instead of sitting in continual and direct opposition. to the wishes of the people, be forced to act in accordance with their wishes,, and for the os eeneral good Tether than for their own individu e l s e lf-i n t e re s t. The great object which they ultimately aimed at, was that incerounportont of all objects--a Retorm in the Representation of the Commons House of Parliament. This took the place of•eyety thing rise, and it was his - most fervent wish that it aould :lean be realised ; and in the hope of its ionise success all most feel and wish r, prosperous termination. It vhis tot his intention to carter . into . the minutiso of the different plan s a nd clsiris respecting Parliamertery Reform, as nearly every ore! had his own opinion upon the subject. Isle must, however, re joice that Grampound bad been disfranchised, as it recognised ! the greed thineiple of Reform ; and though he might anti did regret that the principle had not been farther extaiaede and means left of gradually throwing open-the representation of those - boroughs to sltOl towns as Manchester, birtaingliam, and Leeds, &ca, yet still he must congratulate them upon the principle of Reform bring established and encoutriged by the' Ministers and which ought to serve as a stimulus to further exertiob. Ile should not advert to the different points of political economy, as those were topics,. the diseus sion-of width: wes endies.S. If they looked at the principles which the Club had recognised in its Resolutions, taid on which principles •the Constitution of 1688 was founded, they would perceive that those principles had been violated by every successive Tory Administration ..within-the - last folly or fifty years. and if they took a retrospective glance at. the events. of the last three and twenty years, they would find that the great cf the Constitution, as established by • the Revolu tion of 1638, t y the virtue of our ancestors; haul been coml. tniallseinfrinecti- 0 - pen with success. fie wished the restoration of; the Payliament to a shortenduration, asnixed at that Itevo ! lutien, froth septennial to triepniel periods. He knew it was thrown in the teeth of the Whigs, whenever they - advocated this ruceteure, that . it was they who passed the Septennial Act, ;and wile change tIR , duration ofPathairientsfrorn . thiee to seven years. Put they weeld remember this was done at a time when party faction ran hieh, when the State and !threernment were threatened with dhe;elution from the aetemats. that: were- made to restore the:6 , 4 and religiousliigetrshof tree House of Stuart. If it was viswed es_ an . arbitrary . A ct, they ought to re s *ices the - eireurhseancieS which occasioned it, anti these who now advocated it .;u ht to remember that it , was done out of affec tion to the House of Brunswick, whose existence was then shaken ; that it was only vie wed as a temporal's , measure to meet the peculiar exigencies of the times ; and that that Legislature which -passed it, never for a moment contemplated the possibility cf its existence one hundred years after the occasion which had givta - Oit its origin: - It had'beeti continued in force by all those who have since attained Owes.. He. mold not but regard these As infringements upon the Constitution of England [applause]; and as a proof of tile, if any proof were wanting, he would ask, if among toe great body of Whigs , there coup be found one who!wouldobjeet to its repeal [applause - I ? Ask the Tories if they;would consent to its repeal.? and their answer would be, (appleusel. There - was not 'brie Whig throughout the country of . E nglarid . wh o 00l el contend for its existence.—:On -the Tories, then, should fail all the odium of the measure, as they were now the oniy : persons who advocated• it--who perpe-' tueted it long after the occesion which gave it birth had gone by--eared aell4 gill -pertinaciously adhered to it. If this had been restored, would tiny have witnessed those acts of the ad-' ministration that had disgraced the country within the late years ? Would they :have witnessed the numerous inroads open the liberties of the people?

He gate this advice, although he hoped that the. principb.s they now professed they would aliaysl.etain,and that was, that if they did change their political opinion , and iluence to the side of their present adversarieS, let it not be done from the seductions of power,. or the blandishments of a COurt, but from linnest, upright, and 'conscientious motives and con victions.
