I • VE4Oiv- CITIZENS, • AT a•lirne, when the peace of Westminster is *disturbed by, as violent a rabble, if possible, , t ee •those who endeavoured to force Sir FRANCIS BU it:. AoE2'l' on the County of MiddleseTe, it is your interest as Well as duty to support the tronattratld true inde r•pendenoe of your respectable City.—YOu have no doubt readthe Address of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT to the Freeholders. Of Middlesex, and you see that it contains injurious !nsinuations against a beloved,Vlo ' narch, .as well as against your late favourite Repre,e t r esentative. Of course, if Sir FRANCIS BURDET were to offer himself as a Candidate fur Wesueii* • ster, you would rejett,him with indignation, as doubt not that 'the real Freeholders of Miekileex Will do at the approaching Eleeton. But Mr. P4eer. • has professed himself to be THE PUPIL of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, and to unite in all the views and all the aims; of. that desperate young roan. Mr., p.tiULL has no pretensions at all. to your favour, even if he': had not declared his deterroinittion to fbllow the,con &id of a mah whom every . rational friend to . the Country:W has deserted.—ho is Mr. PAULL ) . and how did he.acquire the wealth he possesses ?—and which he Seems- disposed indeed to imitate Sir FRANCIS BURDETT in squanderieg in ambition and • 'vanity ? Why, Mr. PAULL is a imam who arose from nothing e and who has not risen in life be the,dimlay • of any abilities that entitle him to the smallest poraeh of public reSpeci, or by any services ; in any shim tion, that can,give him the least claim to the gra titude ofbis Countrymen. Ile was,,at hieowo earnest entreaty, permitted by Marquis WneetSeee to go f, to Ltiektiow; in order ". to Wind up his, accounts," as he termed it, and he took that Opportunity of . quirhig what property he possesses. Ldo nOt charge . him with obtaining it unfairly, but however he might acquire it, ie was serving him Self, ..not his Country. When he returned from that place he • wrote letters, some of which'have been given to the Public, and more of which, I trust, will•be.given, to show what sort of a than he is, . in ,which he used all the terms of the most tawning adulation in addressing Matquis WELLESLEY, paying homage to the talents of that Nobleman, to his integrity and to his justiee e and asserting that none could. appeal to him upon • proper grounds without gaining . speeciyattentiOn and tomplete.reckre4s. • Yet this said Mr. Piti et, in grOss contradiction to all his servile adulatton, has attacked the Nobie Lord with censure as acrimonious as his praise was abjeCt. And what., appears to hose been Mr. PAuee'sehjea p-- , ;411y, notoriety—and upon•this .notoriety,, thus obtained by a libel upon himself, in a complete contradidion of all his sneaking homage to. Marquis WELLESLEY, he hopes to cajole you out of rout VOtes. I shall not enter into the subject of what is called Indian Delinouenial but even if it were pOSSible to a3cribe laudable motives to . Mr. PAULL in his prosecution agaihst the Nobleman whoM he 'once profeSsed to honour, Mr. SHERIDAN is much more entitled to public admiration and respea upon the very game grotrodS. , , Mr. SHERIDAN, upon the memorable occasion of Mr.HAsTiNGS!S trial manifested the most eorhenande itg;ind affeCting eloquence in behalf of the natives of Ihdia, and•in zeal for the honour. and 'interest of Great Britain. But, Fellow-eitizehs, h.lok at the Public condliCt of Mr. SHERIDAN through the whiffle of his political lite: Has he not, iii the midst bfri evate eni6arragSments, which rnight have watped the 4 ihtegrity of most men, remained true rei prinei ples te Can any tnandoub; thht if he had been his ,pos4d to desert his party, that . honours tinde'6Mofte. meats *Wifuld leiVe - i;eierted his ileceptanee. 'He did indeed dinr . with his Party; and with a Ike distin: guished charaC k er, who WAS at the head it, 'but it wiiSupon public gtoondg,'and wiienhe thought that by relinquishing his duty in Parliament,:thetti6ival . SafeiYohight be brought into peril. He never for a fnOnleM gavethe world ,reasen to beiieye he would abandon his Party the Mean selfish en;' •. As to the j etubarra'ssittents which Were so outrac4sly urged against him before the hustings,' with the desperate fury of a gallic mob, in the zenithof that Revolution which ha'iebrOught France under the moSt , despotie Military. Gaeeninent upon the face - of Globe, the Public have nothing to do with e the4e e e, embarrassments • or rather, they furnish the Public. .with a topic for adudration' and - regret . : admiration . that they could not. tempt a man froin*his duty to :. his Country—and regret that it is theunforturiate ebaraCter Of superior minds to be negligent of those neheiths by which inferior men pa•S through life Safety and insignificance. I am fir .feom meaning , to degrade that useful, valuable, a11:1 reSpC6taii.lo: ir ' ttieealled'prudenee ; but I would observe, that men . . of great talents are 'not t 1) be rieldl; eoeasured by." the satire rules which the apply to tie• common hulk' . 'of Matikind. The great poi nt of eoilehleratioe - with the l'ubliC is the* public eand , :a of those mete who aspire to its stipport. If in very trying Stan i n ous n, private life a man preserves his pub/he hoie,ur and inkrrity untainted., when the exiample of in,tny would ' sanClion a desertiOn of partychneeXions, such a than deserves the confidence and support of his cohntrythen.—Such a man is Mr. SHERtmer. He remained attached to your late Representative, Mr. Fox, for upwards of six-and-tWenty years, he never would desert him, and he did not accept an official situation till Mr. 'Fox and his' political friends were called int& power. Can you the;:, with: any sense of public' gratitude, desert such a man in a critical moment, and prefer one with whom you have no connexion, and who hashuit solid pretensions to yew' faVoUr ? Come forward, my Fellow-citizens, and resolutely support Mr. SHERIDAN, whose political charaeter is unimpeached and unimpeaqtable. Shew that you are not to be led away by clathour and malevolence; and rescue your ancient City from an' Upstart who' attempts to ride into its representation' upon the shoulders of a desperate rabble. As to Sir SAMUEL HOOD, FellOw-cititens, it would be doing injustice to your patriotism, to your spirit, to your love of valour, your gratitude to those who hazard their lives in defending your Country, and your attachment to ou?great National Service, to doubt that you will give him your firm support. PUBLICUS. So ignolant are the rabble who support Mr. PAULL before the Hustings in Covent-Gardent that on the day ,when Mr. SHERIDAN appeared, they assailed him by the name of the Peruvian. Chief, exclaiming, " No Rolla—No Rolla"—as if they thought that they degraded him in comparing him with the hero, who,. according to the drama, de. voted his life to the service of hii Country; CORK, OCT. 7'hunday about, eight, o'clock,., a most and unprecedented outrage and assassination :took , pice near Upper .Punier s4treet , Litherick mil r. ea. w.

Several persons proved haVing heeti attacked by an animal of that descrip ,tion, the property of' a farmer of the name of Trot , - ter: 'the bull Was consequently penned for slaughter, and one of the horns was discovered to be bloody, which tended to confirm the belief that the poor woman had been killed by him. The Jury returned a verclia of Accidental Death. A female of respeelable appearance was found drowned yesterday morning in Chelsea Reach, by some fishermen. From the appearances of the body, it was supposed to have been a long time in the wa ter.
