GENTLEMENT,—Having the Ship Active in the Coal trade from Shields to London, where lam Master and Owner, eleven months ago I made a Top-mast Studding Sail of No. 6, White_ haven Canvas; at the same time I made a Top-mast Studding Sail of No. 6, Brown Scotch Canvas, prepared by yon. The unprepared Studding Sail is very much injured by mildew, and the prepared Studding Sail is not the worse, although it has been more in use as a Foretop-mast Studding Sail. My Certificate, with the pieces of each Sail, I consider it my duty to give you ; also this Report for the good of Ship Owners and others. I am, Gentlemen, your's, respectfully, To Messrs. Browell and Co. GEORGE BROWN. Ratcliffe Cross, May 16, 1822. _ . - .

To Messrs. 8..0we1l and Co. W. BROWN. We hereby Certify that we have examined the Studding- Sails of the Active, of South Shields, and they are exactly as -described in Mr. George Brown's letter to Messrs. Browell and Co.

WORMS are the Cause of many Internal Afflictions, which vary so much in their effects that they may be mistaken 1,1 the most eminent Physician, and prove equally fatal to the Constitutions of Adults and Chil dren ; though the latter more extensively suffer from their destructive ravages. Their more usual symptoms are Fits, Pains in the Stomach, Side, and Head, Loss of Appetite, and Pale, Languid, and Emaciated, Appearrnce in the Patient.— The extraordinary efficacy of CHING'S PATENT WORM LOZENGES in all such Complaints, as well as Obstructions in the Bowels, and every Disorder where opening or cleansing Physic is required, is so universally hhown, and has been.puh hely acknowledged by so many persons of distinction and rank in Society, that it is unnecessary here to enlarge on their peculiar Vic toes.

A General Court of this Society was held on Saturday the 17th at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street. As it was its last Meeting for this year, the. Gael, for the greater part in their graceful tartan, gave a numerous attendance; and certainly it has seldom fallen to our lot to be present at an assembly where there appeared such well regulated convi viality, and so much of the pure spirit of good fellowship. In the absence of MAC CHAILEIN MHOIR (his Grace of ARGY LL ), President of the Society, 'Vice-Admiral Frazer, one of the 'Vice-Presidents, took the Chair, at seven o'clock, supported by Sir Alexander Grant and Major-General Gordon, on the right; and on the left, by Major-General Turner and the Honourable Mr. Lake: We observed among the company several other Gentlemen of military rank. There is something peculiarly inviting in Mesa men of the mountains ; for the Highland Society of London 'is decidedly and confessedly the go of the present day. It is quite un deniable that there has been, for several ,weeks back, among all Gentlemen possessed of the -nezesstgy qualifications, something like a general straight forward rush to become candidates for admission into this. Institution; and seemingly under the very just impression that no man can give a more decisive proof of national spirit than by connecting himself with it by all practicable means. This is good, and exactly as it should be. The Gael will incorporate, wherever they are; and, shoulder to shoulder; -they will ourish, in spite of' every opposition and obstacle. 'But this is universally ac knowledged. There was a circumstance of extraordinary interest in the proceedings of the evening, which promises infallibly to ensure and to perpetuate the attractive influence of the High land Society ; and that was, the election to the dignity of Honorary Members of no less personages than two Highland LADIES of distinction, each of whom is the HEAD of her CLAN. The one is a Lady of whom every Scottish belt is proud to be the countryman,Lady GWYDYII4 A BIIAN DILUMADACHI and the other, Mrs. MACDONALD, of MacDonald, [ A BRAN Do NuL LA C ] The announ cement of this very important acces sion of strength and consequence was hailed with loud and re iterated acclamations ; and gave during the whole evening an evident impulse to the spirits of the mountaineers, who, with good reason, regarded the . event as forming a most happy and auspicious era in the history of their Society. Circumstances concurred to render this meeting remarkable, for in addition to that just mentioned, there was the excellent and dignified Chairman, who, abating only 36 years, has served his country for a century ; and yet he performed the du ties 'of the Chair with all the mind• and activity of youth, and shewed an undiminished and most becoming fondness for the habits and usages of his native mountains. There was also a Croupier, Mr. Secretary Wedderburn, under whose clever ma nagement the Society has already profited so much, and has so many advantages in prospect. Several good addresses were made to the Chair, among which we remarked those of Mr. Linning, a Member of the Highland Society of Edinburgh ; and of 111 r. Secretary Wedderburn, who took occasion to impress on Gentlemen, especially such as were Highlanders, the necessity of adopting on such occasions the . garb of their country ; and this he did in terms so very spirited and appropriate, as not to leave a doubt but that, at all future General Courts of the Society, the feilZheag shall be seen on all the sons of the Gael. We must not close our account without mention of that gal lant appendage to the Society, Mr. Clarke, the piper, whose spirit-stirring piobrachds oftener than once brought to our thoughts the departed times of feudal glory and of clannish in dependence. Mr. Gow's bewitching fiddle procured, as usuc 1, its well-gained portion of applause. It being Saturday, the meeting, with a commendable regard for the succeeding day, broke up sooner than it would other wise have done. So the beautifully sung song of Good night and joy be you a', concluded the hilarities of the occasion about midnight ; and with a hearty shake of the hand the com pany separated, aye " glad"to meet, and witO to part, and glad to meet again.'. CALEDONIAN ASYLUM BALL. This splendid Ball, under the patronage of his Royal High ness the Duke of Yon): and ALBANY, President of the Insti tution, was given at Willie's Rooms on Monday the 13th inst. The merits of this truly national charity, for the education and support of the children of those gallant Scotsmen who have fal len in the service of their country, did not fail td attract the most brilliant assemblage which we have ever witnessed. The company exceeded 1,400, and,. in addition to all the distin guished Ladies, under whose immediate auspices the ball was arranged, we bserved most of the leading characters in the fashionable world. The Ladies were chiefly attired in fancy dresses, with some emblem appropriate to the occasion ; the Patronesses wearing the tartans and badges of their respective Clans. The Highland garb was displayed with its accustomed grace by Mac Chaillein Mor, Mac Mhic Ailein, the Chief of Clannronald, M'Dougall of 111 4 Dougall, and a large portion of the company, which, with naval and military uniforms, added to the effect produced by the tasteful decorations of the room. The colours of Scotland were displayed and surrounded by those of the Patronesses, with their distinctive clan badges and inscriptions. The interesting objects of the Charity, paraded by the Direc tors, and preceded by a gallant Highland piper playing " Cogadh na Sith," were drawn up before, the Patronesses, and attracted their notice, as well as that of his Grace the Duke of Welling. ton and other General Officers, for their becoming deportment, and healthy appearance. The Highland reels were danced with the spirit which is always inspired by the admirable strains of Gow's band, and the party did not separate till after day break. Among the company we observed the Duke of Wel lington, the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland, the Duke and Duchess of Argyll, the Earl and Countess of Cassillis, the Duchess of Leeds, Prince Cariate Cimitelli, the Countess of Buckinghamshire, Earl of Courtown, Lord Sydney, Duchess of Richmond and Ladies Lenrox, Lady E.

The establishment of this most useful Charity was celebrated on Saturday last by a number of Gentlemen, who assembled to dine together in the London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill, the Right Hon. the Earl of LIVERPOOL in the Chair. If the popularity of each charitable institution were commensu rate to its utility, the name of the Royal Sea Bathing Infirmary would be known through all the inland counties of England. To the maritime counties it affords but a small compensative ad vantage ; but in the counties where the benefits derived from the sea air and from sea bathing are highly appreciated, its value is incalculable. To the City of London and to its num berless poor, it is highly advantageous, as it offers a means of relief which the cheapness of conveyance to the Isle of Thanet, in which the Infirmary is situate, renders compatible with the smallest income, and to obtain which the recommendation of a Gov_ ernor is alone requisite. After the usual loyal toasts, which were drank with appro priate effusions of enthusiasm, the cause of the Charity was advocated with powerful effect by the Noble Chairman, by the Earl of Darnley, Sir Everard Home, Sir William Garrow, J. A. Warre, Esq. M.P. and many other Gentlemen, who described the situation of many of the persons relieved from scrophulous and other diseases, by means of the advantages of the baths adjoined to this Infirmary. To the Ladies of Great Britain the welfare of this Charity is especially entrusted ; and as it was truly said, if they exert their powerful influence not only at the places of worship in which collections are made, but also on those occasions when objects requiring its relief come before them, the cause of the Royal Sea Bathing Infirmary will not be unsuccessful. Sir. GEORGE HILL rose to move for the appointment of a Select Committee to inquire into the laws which regulat ed the Linen Trade of Ireland, and to report thereon. He remarked that nothing was of more importance to the Sis ter Kingdom than her Linen Trade, and more particularly , in the Province of Ulster, where it was carried on to a great ex tent. The object of his Committee was to simplify the numer ous and complicated acts of Parliament which rid been passed at different periods respecting this trade. Many difficulties arose respecting the arrangement of the oflicers,,who.vrere as the law stood, to superintend the different markets in Ireland ; and the applications which were made on the subject' from the counties of Down, Armagh, Londonderry, and Antrim, varied consider ably in, their nature, and it would. be the business of the Com mtttee to investigate the several statements, and then-consider under what regulatioris these officers should be appointed. It was his anxious wish to see the linen trade of Ireland extend and increase its branches; wherever its industry existed, the moral and religious habits of the people were always remark able ; and it was gratifying to know, that the part of the county of Cork in which a linen manufactory was in some-degree esta blished was comparatively free from disturbance during the late unfortunate spirit which broke out in that part of the country.. He had no hesitation in saying, that his part of the country. (Ulster) would have largely partaken of the heavy distress which oppressed so large a part of Ireland, were it not for the success with which the linen trade was there conducted, and which enabled the tenants to pay their rents. s. Mr. DENIS BROWNE entirely concurred in what had fallen from the Right Hon. Gentleman on the value of the linen trade, and which fortunately enabled those where it was esta blished to work pro ari: et foci:. He was aware that a coarse narrow kind of linen was made in the county of Cork, but the Right Hon. Gentleman had forgotten to mention that in the county of 11ayo the greatest linen-manufactory in Ireland was established. He hoped that the attention of the Committee would be directed generally for the benefit of the whole linen trade in Ireland, and not for any partial purpose. Mr. SPRING RICE also spoke in favour of the Irish linen trade: and said that whatever measure was calculated to improve it must confer a great natioal benefit. But what he principally rose for, was to suggest to the Right Hon. Secretary for Ireland (Mr. Goulburn), the propriety of encouring the growth of flax, and thereby opening a source of employment to the people, in the preparation of that article for the linen trade. This was a very favourable moment for giving effect to the report of the Commissioners upon that subject, and lie hoped the Right Hon. Secretary would direct his best attention to the matter. The Committee was then appointed. IRISH BUTTER. Mr. CANNING presented a Petition from certain merchants and others in Liverpool, praying . for duties on foreign butter, to protect the home article, and improve the agricultural inte rests of the country. The Petition was referred to the Agri. cultural Committee. VAGRANT LAWS. On the motion of Mr. CHETIVYNDE, the Report of the Vagrant Laws' Amendment Bill was ordered to be taken into consideration on Monday next. IRISH SPIRITS. Mr. LUSHINGTON moved the third reading of the Malt Duties' Repeal Bill. Mr. C. H. HUTCHINSON begged the attention of the Right Hon. Gentleman to an important disadvantage which this Bill would inflict upon the Irish distiller, and he was per suaded that when the Bill was found to have such an opera tion, it. would be altered. He could assure the Honourable Gentleman that he was about to injure the Irish distillers.. The object of this Bill was to decrease the duty on malt from 6d. (the duty imposed in 1820) to 4id. per gallon of spirits.— According to the bonding and warehousing system in Ireland, when the distiller exported his spirits to England, he was entitled to draw back the malt duty which, by the Act of 1820, amounted to sixpence per gallon. The benefit of such a drawback was now taken away by this Bill : but then it was said an equivalent was given for it by a reduction of the countervailing dtity to the same amount—that is, that the coun tervailing duty, which the Irish distiller had to pay in England, was to be ieduced from l ls. to les. tad. The English distiller had, however, this advantage—that instead of paying 6d. a gallon malt duty, as the Irish manufacturer had paid, he was only charged 40. by the late reduction ; so that between that amount and the 6d., the Irish distiller was injured in comparison with the English manufacturer, on spirits made in England from the 25th of rebruary under the decreased duty, compared with Irish spirits brought into the English market subsequent to February, but manufactured- in Ireland under the previous high duty. They certainly had a right to be placed upon a par, according to every principle of fairness and justice. This dif fererice, small as it appeared, afflicted the Irish distiller at the rate of 20s. a punchee., and would amount to no less a sum than 10,0001 upon the present stock on hand, should it be his plea sure to export the whole to England. He knew it might be said, that formerly when the additional tax was laid on, the stock on hand was exempted ; but to this he had to observe, that the Irish distiller at that period, in coming into the English market, paid the increased countervailing duty which he there found to exist. He had also to observe, that the question now related to a different stock and to different holders. The Irish distiller had uniformly to complain of the severe operation of the English excise regulations, which, in effect, directly contravened the articles of union. At thie very mo ment, the spirit trade of Ireland was suspended, owing to a very harsh excise regulation, which required the Irish manufacture to be reduced and weakened, so as in fact to lose its strength and flavour, before it was permitted out of the docks. It now became a question of law, about to be argued in the English Court of Exchequer, whether the Irish manufacture was to be vendible in its original state in the British market. The solemn compact, which was to govern the trade between the two coun tries, was by the operation of this excise regulation, at this mo ment suspended, and the benefit intended to be secured, and which the legislature had in fact provided for the Irish trader, was on the present occasion most unjustifiably abrogated. The Irish Parliament never could have dreamt, at the Union, that they were legislators not for an Irish, but a British manufac ture ; for such the spirits of that country became, when the Ex cise insisted upon adulterating it with Thames-water, before its sale in the English market. Nothing was more unfair, both in principle and spirit, than the manner in which the Irish distil ler had been throughout treated by severe excise regulations, contrary to the spirit of the law, and by vacillating systems, and above all, by the. high duties, which amounted to a bounty upon the demoralizing system of illicit distillation, —alike inuring the fair trader and the revenue. The Iris'. distiller did not, in fact, know at, this moment whether the Chancellor of the Exchequer was to permit the large or sinall stills to work, and this want of information was a great source of inconvenience to the Irish distiller, for he did not know how to act. He understood that the Chancellor of the Exchequer had made some premises to the Irish distiller, for which he knew the latter was grateful; but he increased that a more liberal spirit should be pursued towart3e the trade of Ireland. The House must know that, except the linen trade, this spirit ma nufacture was the only one in Ireland which since the. Union had found a market here. The clause about to be brought up grant ed the drawback on the stock in nand when taken out for the Irish market, and even for this he was thankful: but the House would recollect that what he contended for was admission for the Irish spirits into the English market upon equal terms.— That manufacture was materially connected with the interests of agriculture, and a very large revenue was derived from it alone. If it were contended that the quality-of the Irish spirits could he altered by the English Excise, the same might be done with their butter, or with any other commodity ; it was a glaring inconvenience—cllear.) Mr. LUSHIN °TON assured the Hon. Member, that his Right Hon. Friend (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) was most anxious to act with Itindness and indulgence towards the Irish distillers, and that when the measure was perfected he would see no inequality in its operation, both the Irish and English dis tillers would stand precisely the same. If the measure should hereafter be found to work any injustice, he could assure the Hon. Member wholhad taken so active an interest in the sub ject, that the matter should be attended to..—(Hear.) Sir G. HILL said that the case was simply this—the 6d. per gallon malt duty was reciprocally repealed for both countries, and 40. was to be the drawback on export froin either coun try. - The Hon. Member (Mr. Hutchinson) had been repeat edly with him urging the case of the Irish distillers, and he FOR THE SUN. MR.

GENTLEMEN,—We, the undersigned, beg leave to call to your remembrance the oath. you have taken as a Younger Brother of the 'Corporation, viz. " To be aiding, by a ll the best means you can, to uphold and maintain the good and welfare of this Guild, Fraternity, and Brotherhood, whereof you be now a Member." This being part of the oath we have taken, we conceive it a duty imposed upon us, from various circumstances which have occurred, and what is now passing before a Committee of the House of Commons, which renders it doubtful whether these, peculiar rights and privileges, originally granted to this Corpo ration, for the particular guidance, good rule, and benefit of the Seamen of this realm, with a view to promote the true interest of the country, in all its maritime affairs, may not be taken away and annulled, if it should be found that the Elder Brethren of this Corporation have not performed those higher duties they owe to their country, and particularly as regards the manage ment of the Funds of the Corporation. We therefore are of opinion that a General Meeting of the Younger Brethren of this Corporation should be convened, as also every Ship- Owner, who has been a Master Mariner, and others now Master Mariners, to consider and devise Such measures as may be:deemed necessary, agreeably to the oath we have taken, for the purposes before-mentioned, and, if requisite, to petitiOn Parliament to recommend to his Majesty to alter the present system of this Corporation, and refound it on its original prin ciples of General Election by all the Younger Brethren of the Corporation of Members for Elder Brethren, as noAls the case, according to Charter, for the Masterat least, in • ar.ait - may be best suited to the present order-of things at, raisin:jolt of time.

ROMAN CATHOLICS. (From" JOHN BULL," May 19.) To the Right lion. Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parl;a- men t assembled:— We, the Archdeacon and Clergy of the Archdeaconry of Sarum, deeply impressed with the importance of the treasure now brought before Parliament, relative to the admission of Catholic Peers into your Honourable House, (a measufaswhich can be contemplated only, it is presumed, by thinking men, as the beginning of evils ; it being regarded by its most Zea lous supporters as the stepping-stone to a still more general en croachment on the Constitution of this country,) beg leave, with all becoming respect and humility, to present ourselves be fore you. Gratefully mindful of those political advantages which, under a gracious Providence, we have long been per mitted to enjoy, and tremblingly alive to the preservation of that pure branch of the Apostolic-al Church, of which, in this country, we have been made the accredited and responsible Ministers, we cannot refrain from expressing our most serious apprehensions at the adoption of a measure which saps the very foundation upon which the Constitution of this Pro testant Country has been built ;—a measure which, if carried to its full, and, as we understand, projected extent involves in it, not only an indirect reflection upon the wisdom of our fore fathers, but also a gross dereliction of established principles, together with a lamentable indifference to the preservation of true religion in this favoured land. Acquainted, as your Lord ships unquestionably must be, with the awfully-eventful his tory of past times, and alarmed, as your Lordships cannot fail to be, with the threatening complexion of the present, we presume to address ourselves with some degree of confidence to you, as here ditary guardians of our envied Constitution, in the humble hope that you will not sufferyour soberjudgmerit to be influenced by the miscalled liberality of the day; nor your good sense carried away by the specious arguments and tinsel oratory ofpopular declaimers But that, looking forward to what may sooner or later be thecon sequences of political power in the hands of religionists,whe,arro gating to themselves the title of being exclusively the Members of Christ's Catholic Church. unequivOcally profess themselves adverse to the Protestant Establishment; whilst, at thc same time, taking into consideration that zeal for proselytism to the Romish faith, now, alas ! so actively and so alarmingly em ployed among us, your Lordships, we humbly trust, will look the present Suspicious measure full in the face ; and, by a frm, temperate, but decided opposition to it, will thereby, under the favour of that Divine Being to whom this country has been is,. debted for the most distinguished blessings, set that harassing, unconetitutiOnal question, here referred to, for eve: at rest.— And your Petitioners, &c. &e. On the 2d instant, a hair-dresser, who lives in Water -street, Newry, after having made a libation to Bacchus, imagined that he was to be hanged, and that the officers of justice were entering his house to carry him tn. execution. Und.er this strange impression, he contrived to get on the roof of his habitation, along which he darted wits uncommon ve locity. From his own roof he was seen bounding over sere ral other, roofs, now and then pausing when he came to a chimney, and either peeping into the funnel, or listening so his imaginary pursuers. Meanwhile, several of his nel.Eh hours collected together, anxious to secure the man, and prevent his expected fall. Be saw them, mistook them fer bailiffs, and having run rapidly along the roof of Mr. WlC lace's stores, proceeded to that of Mr. John Quinn's stores, over which he rushed with much fleetness and security, till he came to the gable, from which he jumped With dauntless intrepidity upon an adjacent dwelling.house, a descent of about eight feet, imagining, no doubt, that it wag neck or nothing with him. From thence he proceeded to Nil-. Nlr.Sinith's roof, where he stripped a proportion of the chimney of bricks, and, squeezing himself into one of the funnels, pelt ed the people who wisled to secure him with these missiles, as long as his supply lasted. In this situation he was seized, secured with ropes, and lowered down to an immense multitudeof the market people, who were gazing with astomshmentat the funny gambols of the frisky frisseur.
