ich ain laly Proposed shall not " militate against the right of discussion and the censuring of Minis terial acts :" an expression rather too vague to Produce the desired effect of " tranquillizing the Most anxious minds." The article relating to Persons who may " endeavour to disturb the Public peace by exciting contempt or hatred of citizens against one or several classes of per sons," being thought too loosely worded, has been rendered more specific. Journal ,, in which sedition is committed, may be suspended, or sup pressed for the second offence. Editors who give Unfaithful reports of judicial proceedings, or tr ansactions in the Chambers, may be fined and imprisoned, and also prohibited for a time froth publishing any articles of this nature.- 1116 Committee unanimously recommends that offences of the Press should be tried by the Jud ges of the Royal Courts, ;con references 1 '' ei ng made to them by the Chamber of Council." Measures are still proposed for preventing the rc''3l3Pearance of a suppressed Journal under a new title.—The Report was read amidst inter ruptions in the highest degree insolent and un candid. Saturday (this day) was fixed for taking It into consideration. Twenty-two Members pro- Pose to speak in favour of the Report, and forty three against it. The partisans of Catholic Emancipation in 'eland are commencing a vigorous campaign, ' w hich threatens to extinguish every hope of the concord so earnestly enjoined and anxiously cul tivated by our gracious Sovereign during his visit to that country. And yet, by an almost in- credible perversion, the very individuals who are "rotnencing these ill-omened measures, appeal to the pacific declarations of Ilis MAJESTY, and a ffect to think that they are promoting his bene volent views by a renewal of the most obstinate unmitigable feuds. The petition to the Guild of Merchants in Dublin for the admittance °I-certain Catholics, was supported by a reference tc ' his MAJESTY'S conduct ; and the Kilkenny Ite gnisition (mentioned in our paper of Thursday) Proposes an address to Parliament for the removal o f Catholic disabilities, as the best means of per rilanently establishing the concord recommended by his MAJESTY in taking leave of his Irish sub jects. Unquestionably all disputes and litiga gati°lls, and most wars, are entered into with a Vie w to ultimate concord ; even General ROCK and Captain STARLIGHT (whom we only name on thi s occasion for illustration's sake) would per haps allege that their savage crusade against ren ts, tithes, and taxes, was undertaken for the p u rpose of establiShing peace 'and quietness 11 A on a sound footing, by the abolition of grie- Is "ces ; but when legal or martial adversaries h ave been intreated to lay aside their differences, " active renewal of the suit, or a brisk attack 11 1' 0 11 the enemy's quarters, are not the readiest i llethod s of securing the desired pacification ; and the wir upon landlords ,add tithe proctors, if ever so active or successfui l would not, we sup ijnse, produce a very siSeAay or general tran quillity. In like manner the nobility and gen tlemen who have proposed the Kilkenny Meet ing, however patriotic their intentions may be, are certainly, in our opinion, taking such measures for the promotion of unanimity as were never co ntemplated by the KING in his conciliatory ad- Monitions to the people of Ireland. Norfolk (Virginia) Papers arrived this morn ing to the 19th December. The following are ‘'xtra c t s 4C PROM ST. AUGUSTINE. — The Mayor of the tit ' y) under date of the 17tit.ult. announces that th e cool weather, which had prevailed for a few 3's preceding yesterday, his had the blessed eft , ct of checking the progress of the fever, in ex emptuig the citizens and 'soldiers from any new cases. L e " Si'. B ARTHOLOMEW ' S , - Nti 7'3Y, 3.—We arrived . after a rough passage, and we found here the She 's ship which robbed the Orleans packet ; is now in possession of the Swedish Govern -1,1e". It is s a id Captain Er,Tor has requested th e l ., Gov ernor to a ll ow hi m t o t a k e th em to the U nited St a t es f or tr i a l.

Viscount l airlouth was also present, although he has re signed th e S ea l s of office, so that it will be seen th at he retains his seat in the Cabinet, although not in office. The Cabinet Council continued in del iberation_ till a quarter past three o'clock. — After the breaking up of the Council, the Duke of. Welli ngton went to the Ordnance Office, and tra nsacted business for a considerable time. Ili ISCR Yesterday at twenty minutes before twelve o'clock his MAJESTY left his Palace in Pall mall, in his carriage and four, for his Palace at Brighton. hum KNIGIITI.—An extraordinary discovery has recently occurred on account of the honour of Knighthood having been conferred on Captain PHILLIMORE, of the British Navy, by the new Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. It appears that before the Ustos the Viceroys of Ireland enjoyed the privilege of conferring this honour, but that it was not reserved to them on that occasion, and then devolved wholly on the Sovereign ; so that all the Knighthood bestowed by Earl TALBOT, as well as by the Marquis WELLESLE v,are found to be null and void.—The Board of Admiralty we understand has the merit of making this disco very, which had escaped the observation of our ablest Lawyers and Statesmen, and it is highly creditable to that Board, inasmuch as it shows that they are vigilantly attentive to whatever relates to the Department over which they have so ably presided. JOSEPH JEKYLL, Eso.—We are extremely sorry to learn that this Gentleman, on returning to his house in Spring-Gardens from his office as Master in Chancery, was found yesterday after noon, in a senseless state, at the bottom of his carriage. He left the office about three o'clock, and was then apparently in excellent health. — lie was immediately attended by Dr. Asir, and Mr. FREEMAN, his Surgeon, and received all the aid that medical skill and experience could SUggeSt, but he remained, we understand, in a state of insensibility at a late hour last night.— As his respiration was free, his medical attendants were not without hope—a hope in which all who know the high merits of Mr. JEKYLL, intellectual and moral, must warmly sympathize.—We have the pleasure to learn that Mr. JEKYLL. has passed a good night, and is somewhat better this morning. DUCHESS OF ST. ALB INS.—It is with regret we have to announce the death of the Duchess of ST. ALBANS, who departed this life at a quarter past nine o'clock on Thursday evening, at his Grace's house in St. James's-square. der Grace has left twelve children to lament their loss. Yesterday forenoon the Right lion. ROBERT PEEL had a long interview with the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, at the Foreign Office ; after which he transacted business, for the first time, at the Horne Department. Yesterday the Right lion. C. WYNN trans. acted business ) for the first time ) at the Board o Controul. The Hon. W. LENNOX BkIIICIRST has been ap pointed a Commissioner of Bankrupts in the room of the Hon. WM. 11. J. SCOTT, who has resigned. Accounts from Corfu, in the French papers, state, that Sir THOMAS MAITLAND embarked on the morning of the Ist of December on board the Rochfort, for Malta. lie was accompanied by Sir FREDERICK /I ANKEY, his Secretary, and Vice-Admiral MooRE. It is not known bow long the Lord High Commissioner will be absent. Sir F. ADAMS is invested with the government during his absence. The Gazette of the lonian Islands of the Ist of December contains the ordi nance conferring those powers on Sir F. ADAMS, and appointing Sir Thomas LINE to the office of Secretary, pro tenpore. The average amount of all promissory notes and bills of the Bank of Ireland, which have been in circulation during the quarter, ending the sth day of Jan. 1822, is 5,301,877/. 14s. 7d. Irish currency. We have been much impressed by the great improvements in the interior of Westminster Abbey ; the whole of the monuments are under goino. a thorough cleaning, and the public are much indebted to Mr. BENJAMIN WYATT, the Architect to the Abbey, for the removal of the iron railing from before the monuments, and which formerly skreened them from public view, many of which are very interesting both as to subject and execution, and are now, by taking away the railing, brought into view with an effect that is very impressive. A French widow has lately been disappointed by the principal tribunal of Toulouse, in a clever expedient which she, had adopted to satisfy at once her husband's will and her own. The whole of her husband's property was left her on condi tion of not marrying again ; she took the property, and did not marry ; but she was unlucky enough to have several children. The question was, whether this notorious breach of the spirit of the husband's will was not sufficient to defeat her right to the property ; and after a long argu ment the Court decided that it was. Part of the roof of Major lionToN's house, at Tettenhall, near Wolverhampton, fell into the lodging-room where the children were in bed, during one of the late stormy nights. Mrs. Hon.- TON had just left the room; and, although a great part of the rubbish fell over the bed, yet the children miraculously escaped without in- jury. MIRACULOUS rigCAVE—Wednesday morning, about four o'clock' thejnhabiants 'of Cleaver-street, Kenning ton Cross, were roused fromi,their beds, and thrown into the greatest confusion and alarm,..-in consequence of a tremendous crash,l followed by an incessant', breaking of glass' being heard. watchmen sprung their rattles, and the whole neigh bourhood was in consternation .and terror for a considerable time. At length it was discovered, that a huge stack of chim neys had fallen down on the roof of Mr. Timothy Osborn, No. 3, in that street. The weight of the chimneys broke in the roof, and the whole of the rubbish fell into a garret where a young female, named Berwick, was sleeping ; fortunately a large beam" had only given wag at one'end, and the head of the bedstead happened to be !under the end that had not fallen, or the female would inevitably have perished. Imme diate assistance was rendered by the neighbours, and in a short time she was extricated from her perilous situation. Mr. Pratt, a surgeon, was sent for, and cabs was taken to the adjoin ing house, where she now lies. She is materially injured, but we are happy to say she is in a fair way of recovery. AN EXTRAORDINARY INSTANCE OF LONGEVITY. —Within the last year (1821) twelve persons have died in Swaffhatn, whose united ages amount to 1,026 years, being nearly 60 years more than the same number of any preceding year in the memory of man ; there being, in 1799, eleven persons died whose ages united were 890, which was then consickred a striking proof of the salu brity of the air in Swafrhana.

Dowager Marchioness of Donegal entertained a select circle last night at her house in Davies-street, Perkeley-square. The Archbishop of Canterbury had a select party to dinner yesterday, at Lambeth Palace. JOHNSON AND MILLET.-When Dr. JOHNSON first became acquainted with DAVID MALLET, they once went to laugh away an hour at South wark Fair. At one of the booths where wild beasts were exhibited to the admiring crowd, was a very large bear, which the showman assured them was cotched in the deserts of Russia. The bear was muzzled, but to all the company, except Johnson, he was surly and ill tempered. Of the philosopher he seemed extremely fond. " How is it," said one of the company, " that this sa vage animal is so attached to Mr. Johnson ?" " From a very natural cause," replied Mallet ; 4C the bear is a Russian philosopher, and he knows that Linnwas would have placed him in the same class with the English moralist." • Mr. DECAMP, the Manager at Newcastle-upon- Tyne, has engaged Mr. BaAnA.At for six nights at the Theatre-Royal in that town. — Mr. PEARMAN is also engaged at the same Theatre. his first performance was last Mon day evening, as Captain Macheath, in the Beggar's Opera. He was justly received with very warm approbation, by an audience that were fully sensible of his merits three years ago. Now that his musical science is considerably im proved, the attention paid him was alike credit able to the house and the performer.—A Miss TURNER (we do not know from what theatre) sung the songs of Polly chastely and with great sweetness. HOAX IN HIGH LIFE.—A few days ago, a dis tinguished family, residing in one of t`.•le fashion able streets leading from Portland-place, were much annoyed, in consequence of being made the subject of one , of those censurable jokes, called a hoax. It appears that some person or persons, for purposes which can be only known to themselves; distributed letters amongst the various tradesmen with whom the family dealt, dated from the country house, at -- Grove, requesting them to call for orders on the follow ing day, as it was in contemplation to give a grand entertainment to the surrounding Nobility and Gentry. These letters were credited, and no suspicion entertained, as the arrival of the family was hourly expected; and, accordingiy, at eleven o'clock next morning (the hour ap pointed), each prepared himself for the occa sion, and set out to the mansion of the Gentle man alluded to, with high hopes, which, how ever, were soon blighted. The first two or three applications John regarded as a mistake, or, what was more likely, a ruse de guerre on the part of the tradesmen, and accordingly dis missed them with little ceremony ; but when they came in dozens, consisting of tailors, jew ellers, confectioners, musicians, frizeurs, &c. he began to smell the plot, and something like an explanation took place, w hich ended in the pro duction of the letters, and the consequent disco very of the trick that had been practised. Mr. Weston, the eminent tailor of Bond-street, and Mr. Charles, of Fleet-street, were amongst those hoaxed, with a whole host of others of all deno minations, who, after being made the ridicule of the passengers, returned to their homes in dudgeon. DARING STREET ROBBERY.--Yesterday after- noon, as a countryman, who had been to Smith field market with some cattle, was passing up Long-lane, he turned into one of the alleys leading from there, when a fellow who feigned drunkenness came staggering up against him, and suddenly seizing him, hemmed him against the wall, while a companion robbed him of his pocket-book, containing about 40/. in notes, and his watch, with which they escaped, t 7 ..... 0 I-4 r) ~744 2 k ;,...,' .

TAYLOR, accept this tributary lay, A weak attempt thy merits to display; Yet who in SCOTT', Rebecca does not see The living portrait reallied in thee ! Thy talents vary with each Varying scene, Rebecca now, then gtiileless Jeanie Dean i Thy brow commanding marks with just disdain How much heroic virtue can sustain ; Heroic Virtue stands the trembling test, And proves the tender female's noblest Crest : How far more gratead are the falling tears Which the soft eyes of weeping Pity Wears, Than the lord plaudits of the common few ; The bosom's sympathies they never knew ; Tears are the tend'reSt tribute of the heart, And shew, Oh ! TAYLOR, how thy artless part Can draw from manly eyes such balmy show'rs, When thou display'st the magic of thy pow'rs. Thy thrilling tones so melting, deep, yet clear, In Scotia's native tongue, to Scotia dear ; So full of grace, so modest is thy mien, So pure thy taste, so faultless ev'ry scene, That, like the magnet's, thy attractive power, Is lib'ral Nature's boon, a mighty dower ! Yet in a nobler view thy charms appear In the calm scenes of life's domestic sphere; For there thy modest merits brighter shine, And image Virtue as a Grace Divine. Great Quebec-Street. E. J. S.

PEDESTRIANISM. A Match of twelve miles for 58 Guineas was run yesterday morning over a mile piece of ground, at Horton, near Chertsey, and it was a fine treat to the spectators. The cotemporaries were a Captain Griffiths and a Gentleman of the name of Bar. rington ; each two miles were performed as fbllows 111. S. BARRINGTON . .

Amongst which were the teeth and several bones of an elephant, also the head and horns of an animal of the ox species, supposed from their immense size, as compared with the existing species, to be those of the Taur- Elephantis described by Ca , ,sar in his sixth Commentary, LIJ - me of the animals inhabit ing the 11 ercynian (now the Black) Forest, in Germany. To these is now to be added the lower part of the antler of a stag, that which had been attached to the head, equally fossilised, which, within these few days, has been sent to us, having been found on the sea shore at the spot above-mentioned. Thus it appears that the remains of animals of three different species have been discovered within a few feet of each other, on a part of the coast, which, not many centuries since, was probably a promontary or head land ; and hence it may be justly conclud ed, that they arc the organic remains of a former world, decisively corroborating the truth of the sacred writings.—(Kentish Gazette, Jan. 18.)

RENTS.—W" have great plea sure in noticing the liberality of Earl FOIITESCUE, the proprietor of an extensive tract of land in the Barony of Guarder, County of Waterford. This Nobleman, with a just and considerate feel ing for the difficulties of his tenantry - in the above mentioned district, has made them an abatement of '2O per cent. on their rents.—(iVa /el:ford Chronicle.) The Countess of ESSEX, we lament to state; has been for some time confined to her house in Hill-street ; her Ladyship took an airing yester day in her carriage, for the first time since her indisposition. The Earl - of ESSEX is not yet suf ficiently recovered from the attack of ague to leave Cashiohury. The nuptials of the Hon. Miss FiNCII with Count AnAmia, the Piedmontese AmbLs are fixed for Tuesday next ; the happy couple will pass the hoLey-moon at Hampstead-hill. FATAL A cciDENT.—Yesterday afternoon a youth, in the employ of Mr. Jacobs, coach maker, Horseferry-road, was sent nhh a horse •and chaise to Messrs. Tattersall's Repository ; he led the animal by the reins, and on his arrival in Grosvenor-place, his foot slipped, and he was pushed down by the horse; the near wheel of the vehicle passed over his neck,. and the blood was forced from 11:s nose and mouth. He was conveyed to St. George's HosT'' !i2re he ex. pired in five minutes after his arrival. DEATH BY BOXING.—OiI Monday last, a quarrel took place at the Coach and Horses pub lic-house, in this city, between Samuel Dimmock and John Hitcher, when some blows ensued ; but the landlord very properly interfered, and pre vented a continuance of the affray. The parties, however, repaired.toa field on the Lower Bris tol Road, and renewed their fight, when, dread ful, to relate, an unlucky blow from Dimmock laid his adversary a corpse, upon the ground ! An inquest was yesterday held on Hitcher, and a verdict of Manslaughter returned against - Dim mock, who is in custody on the said charge.— (Bath Herald.) . H IMPUDENCE: IN CRIME.—A Norwich paper says, " It has recently been discovered that there has for a length of time been a subscription carried on in several parishe , . to raise a fund to retain Counsel to plead in their behalf when it happens that any of the subscribers are committed and brought before , the Court of Sessions for poaching, fowl stealing, or any other crime, and it is . now a matter of notoriety that at the time some of them subscribed, they were receiving parish relief.—The Cossey Gang are now tired of committing depredations on his Majesty's liege subjects on foot. About ten o'clock at nght, or as soon as they find those who keep horses are gone to bed, they resort to the stables and take out what horses they want, ride them to the spot of depredation (whether for game, poultry, sheep, &c. &c.) and, when done, return the horses, almost jaded and harassed .to death." DREADFL7I. ACCIDENT.—On Thursday afternoon, be tween four and five o'clock, the village of Hackney was thrown into great alarm, by the servant of Mrs. Goodhehere running into the streets and exclaiminlshe should lose her mistress. The neighbours instantly rushed into the house, and discovered the unfortunate Lady just quiting the drawing-room enve loped in flames. They were instantly extinguished; but Mrs. O. was so dreadfully . burnt that she only lingered until one o'clock yesterday morning, when death put an end to her suffer ings. Mrs. G. was near 40 years of age. AGGRAVATED BOBBERY.—Martha Bettelag, servant to Mrs. Atwell, of the Edgware-road, was charged •at Marlborough-street Office, with roh bing her master of 1101., contained in a box. Mr. Atwell went out on Sunday se'nnight, and on his return he found two doors broken open awl a chest, containing a small box, from which the money was taken.. The prisoner, who was left in care of the house with a young child, said she had taken a walk and the robbery was then com mitted.
