'REAS URY PAMPII;. WS Should not have noticed this Work, if we had not been informed that great pains were taken at the Treasury to circulate it. We do not, how. ever, accuse Mr. ADDINGTO-N himself of encou. raging the circulation of the calumnies of the " Near Observer," because he knows them to be unfounded. The Author, under pretence of a fair examination 'of the state of Parties, sets out with imputing the Purest motives to Mr. ADDINGTON, and the basest motives to Mr. PITT ; and upon these data draws all his conclusions as to the conduit of each. He speaks with confidence of all that passed on Mr. ADDINGTON'S accession to power,- and of the whole transaftion relating to his proposal to Mr. PITT to resume his former situation. Upon both these points, we believe his statements to be totally false. The whole oiled of the Pam. phtet is to raise the reputation of Mr. ADDING. TON, and lower 'that of Mr. PITT ; and upon the latter it is a must insidious arid unfair attack. We would not advise any of the Friends of Adinini stration, for their own sakes, to enter the lists, or to force an explanation upon some of the points toothed upon in this Pamphlet. Upon the subjeit of the difference which seems to prevail between Mr. PITT and Mr. ADDING.. Tote, the friends of the latter cannot surely desire more advantage than that his ease should he stated in his own way, as it has been, repeatedly, while Nr. PITT, appearing to abhor any thing which can be considered as a breach of confidential intercourse, 'does not deign to reply, but seems to allow every in4n to form his opinion, and draw his conclusion, who ehuses to do so upon hearing only one side of the question. If the 'Writer of the Pamphlet of which we have been speaking, had chosen to put his name to it, he probably knows that he would not have escaped without a pointed !ply, while an AriOnymous Libel is generally suf., feted to pass without notice. When we have seen at the beginning of Mr. AtiaitICITON'S Administration, a' Newspaper en. teturaged at the Treasury, containing the highest panegyrics upon Mr. ADDINGTON - , and daily viii. lying i n t h e grossest manner the charaiter of Mr. hewr, and this too at a time when every friend of Mr. ADOZNOTON was expressing the greatest at. taehment and the greatest obligation to Mr. PITT, we must say, that the pains which we understand ere taken at the Treasury to recommend and cir. tulate the Pamphlet in question, excites any other_ feeling rather than our surprize. - - Central Someos is employed in establishing a chain of Signal Posta a l ong the Coast of Devon. shire.

Tituttsbny anti Friday Mr. Nutt. Lust.;, Merchant, of this City (arrested a few days ago by the Superintendant Magisaite), underwent examin_ ations at the Castle ; he was afterwards remanded to Kilmainham Gaol. Proclamations ace ordered, we learn, to place the Counties of Kildare and Westmeath under Martial Law. A. person named Lytch, residing in Lucan, and who was implicated in the rebellion of 1798, was arrested on Saturday, charged with renewing his treasons. A Militia-man, it is said, has been taken up in Kilkenny, found in the fat of drilling Rebels. Our Yeomanry continue to increase rapidly in numbers and discipline, and present a glorious shew of strength and patriotism. ANOTHER LETTER, SAME DATE. The Counties of Kildare and Meath are placed out of the King's peace, and subjeded to Martial Law. Nightly drills of Pikemen are certainly taking place through some parts of the Country. The carter of a Mr. ELMORE,. of the county Kildare, returning home at a late hour a few nights ago, saw three or four hundred persons in a field excr. cising, and having reported the circumstance to his master, the field was visited the next morning, when it clearly appeared that it was a body of Cavalry which had been exercising. A curious circumstance is said - to have been discovered to. day : in some of the lumber or turf boats on the canal, several men engaged in the insurreaion of the 23d July, were discovered between decks wounded, PROCLAMATION of the Lord Mayor, dated the 20th.

He Conlisied that he had drawn bills on board the Southattiptoni thin his mother lived in Saville-street, Piccadilly ; that his father lived in Brussels ; that he got first cplainted with Shovell . when they were Iris ners tt spunging:.hnuse, that he had not been above (nur or five m tnths in Sufrolk.lane, and that Shovell passed far his agent, and Carrick for his clerk. Robert Carrick, like his companion, seetned in clined to turn every ,Thing against his cO.oidjurors:i.' —Said., he :lava under them as a Clerk, mu t that Shovel! had desired hith to write to a certain young- . . married Gentleman of Fashion, of good tanatiy, and of large Estates, hearing he was it) want of tempo rary supplies, i nt imating, that he might be supplied with any sum on ,the shurtOt notice, un'certain con. ditions.

A Smuggling Vessel which was lately fitted out at Brighton'as a Privateer, has been remarkably successful, having taken four F rench Veisels, one of whlch ista West Indianian, reported to be worth 200,0601. but which is more probably worth about a fourth of that sum. Tuesday, about two o'clock in the afternoon, a barge lying alongside a brig at Hanover Hole, Mill Wapping, Was discovered on fire, which had a very threatening appearance; the games were however fortunately subdued. The cause of the fire arose from a candle being left burning tic hold at ten o'clock in the morning, when the iota went on shore. Aboot nAttartrr before five yesterday morning, a fire was discovered in a little wooden hots nest the New Cut, St. Georges Fields. The person who inhabited the house, a Mrs. Cox, a .widow, and her daughter, 'were in bed; but a neighbour bruk,e open tie door, and carried the old Lady down stairs. Ry that time the flames were so violent as to oblige the daughter to pimp out of the one.pait *indow. There. were fortunately but two other per. sons in the house at the time, who both escaped also; but•the property was entirely desttoyed in less than half anlioar
