" IL WILLIv." • The Chronic/e has fieqtieritly Complained that aisrespeetful hioz:tr;re has been used against the `Royal Dukes; and that inSi 'wallow; have been thrown out against tilt , ,: who hate wished 'to oce the PrinC# Regent wiiiu .Restrictions; and yet it constantly indulges in the mu disrespeetfUl language net the most illiberal insinuations egaitist nil those who are adverse to the party it supports. 'We do not say that any improper conduct on the cue side is a justification, °inn excuse for it on the ;other, but it would at least be decent .forthe Clow. 'niek to abstain from a yraciif e.which jt represents -as being so unpardonable in others. How often has the Paper to which we are alluding insinuated, Or'rather asserted, that those Noblemen and Gentle , . men who, since the commencement of the discus siona-upun the Regency, Itr“ e voted with Ministers, have been actuated merely by motives of personal interest, that their object has been not' to ma `nifest their fidelity to their. Sovereign, and their. wise:l:went to the best interests of their country, such an important crisis, but merely to.Secore their places ;' and that - on the other,side, every one is actuated by the most pyre and patriotic Motives; the desire of, place, emolurnet4, and rank, has no frecrupon their minds ; itt a word, l, ' that persona 'considerations have no weight with . t hem ! ! We ask the Morning ChrOnicle whether those who use such Language, and throw out such insinuations, can with any propriety complain of illit)eral treatment from others. This practice of throwing out unfounded insinuation's against the motives of public men, 'merely to answer the temporary purposes of a party, is 'both' wicked and foolish; wicked, because it is caleulated to infuse into the public mind a ground less s'uspielon of those who, from their education, talents, and situation, are Best (11111111 kt to nave the' nation ; and .foolish, because if the charge applies. t .all, it applies equally to both parties t if the one is influenced by tin wish of retaining power,, the other is actuated by the hope 'of acquiring it ; R uch as VL.T have heline observed, as there are always niore expeattutt than places, this species of charge must apply with greater ' force, in that point of rr it. aping those who arc seeking .W office, than against those who are 'endeavouring' to re-. tali) it, We have been led to 'those obServatiops from an article which this morning appeared in the Yager' alluded to, upon the , subjet.t of the jour ney , of the Loan Casitqcou.on to Windsor, for tm, purpose, as, it was . reported, of being admit- ed into his MAJIti;TY'S presence. The Par.igraph does not, indeed, assert that Lord arioN would , .in the discharge of tine important duties of ins high ortice, betray his trust to his King and Country, but jr does contain a spedies 'of insinuation which is highly tocitTent when thrown out against a Nobleman ebaraaer, both .in public and in private life, ah imblentished With what view is it that a story told Of What the LORD CHANCELLOR did in -ii-Ourittnission'of L9nacy some yeais ago I Does the Chu;nicle mean to . aagert. that if the 1,.N0 Lord. had :been. _admitted to an interview with ars MAJESTY, 'that " b would have given , any false or incorrect Minn - nation to Parliament upon the subject I We are sere that it does not mean seriousLy to make such . a charge. if it does not, the story can only have been inirod for the purpose of conveying a wanton insult. " We need .not fear," says the Paper in question, '‘‘ that " his ,Lordship will tender any instrument for the " Sign Manual, which the Royal mind does not " completely understand, for his Lordship has " told us that he would sooner submit his right " kind to the block to be severed (lOW his body." 11 ,h ~ :re he no occasion for fear, why attempt to ex cite it ? Why endeavour to create suspicions which are admitted to be groundless --Spargcle vos:es in vulgunt ambiguas, has always been considered as a prof of a mis chievous intro butt,' but no language can be too strong to reprobate the adoption of sub pra6tice at a crisis so awful as the present. • .1 Yesterday morning, about half past eight o'clock, e LOUD CHANCELLOIt and Mr. PettcEvAL town, iu the latter's carriage and four, .tok Windsor, for the purpose of teeing the iiitsG. They arrived 'abutit eleven o'clock, just at the time the Messenger was being, dispatched by Colonel TAYLoa, with the Bulletin. Tile LoRD CHOCELLI , It ordered the Messt nget , to 4tota, and detained him for some time, which was tie cause of its being above hall-past two o'clock berate the Bulletin could be hewn at St. billen Palace. The LORD GLIANCELLOR and Mr. PtnicEtem. remained in the Castle till about half-past one o'clock, and then set off on their re turn to London. • Yesterday the new furniture for the KING'S pri vate apartments in the Queen's Palace was sent in to be in readiness in case his MAJRSTY should come town. The Queutv's apartments have been ready for some days past. • E irl STANHOPE, in one respect,may be considered as an orator whose reasoning admits of. 'no refuta tion, since, whatever the Noble Lord says, no per son ventures to answer, or even to notice his Lord. ship's argUments. It has been facetiously intimated, that if Lord MOIRA should get into power, 'ANACREON MOORE would be the new Secretary for Ireland. We may seriously say, that if the Noible Lord and his friends were to return into office, it would be well if their patronage, in general, should be employed on men or equal abilities, howev , : the Peet may be for the appointment in cr ion.

Sir JOHN SINCLAIR, in his answer to' Mr; Flus- KISSON, observes, that the price of bullion had fallen sear) per cent. from the price which it was at when the Report Mu made by t h e 'B u lli on C omniittee, having been at that perioi 15 1 per cent, above the mini price. This assertion. Sir Jour; makes on the authority of Mr. Maima, yet so little. are Bank-. notes and bullion connected, that this faa in the price of the latter has made no impression on the public, and seems to be at consequence. only to the galdstniths. Large etportations of Wheat- from Limerick have been sent out to feed the arm in Portu ga l, and also the n on - m ili tary population, now crammed' together in Lisbon, while a great share of the pro visions of that country was destroyed, in wevdtit them (rum falling into the bands of the Freneb.— War 'is not only frequently 'attended by tathine in those countries, more immediately the seat of its ravages, but also is preduelive of scarcity and high m prices in situations re mote fro the aaunl scene.
