MUNICH, DECEMBER 15.
Count Arco, President of the Court of Ap.
pa' I, lately received an anonymous letter, calling
1 upon him to issue a new law in criminal matters,
sod threatening him with the fate of Kotzebue. on-
, bas this law wave promulgated by the Ist of Octo-
lime (what year is not said.) The letter is dated
,Nlfith November. In consequence of this letter an
advertisement has been inserted in the newspapers,,
addressed to the writer, iu which he is told that'
what he desires tends to a change in the laws,
which, ' - the Bavarian Constitution, cannot be

by
made except by the King and the Chambers, and
not by the President of the Court of Appeal, as
the anonymous writer erroneously suppose.. If,
therefore, on reflexion, he considers his plan as use-
ful, he will do better to present a petition to the
Chambers, in their approaching Session. than any
longer to cherish the idea of perpetrating a crime
which would be wholly useless towards the attain-
ment of his object, and fatal to himself.
FRANKFORT, DECEMBER go.
In the sitting of the Diet on the 7th, the Presi-
dent proposed to defer the discussion of the dif-
ferences between Prussia and Anhalt Cuethen, be-
cause a Conveption respecting the navigation of the
Elbe had been concluded, and there was great rea.
son to hope that these differences would be deter.
mined amicably. The Prussian Minister being
persuaded that the difference was probably already
adjusted, or certainly was very nearly so, declined
entering on the subject. Most of the Members ap.
proved of the proposal of Austria, only the Minis-
ter of Anhalt expressed the readiness of the Duke
to come to an amicable arrangement, as he has re-
peatedly proved, but that having consented, out of
regard for the Court of Austria, to adjourn the
Diet till the 7th December, and, consequently,
the discussion of his grievinices, till the 13th De-
cember. The Minister has positive orders to
refuse his assent to a further prorogation.
The Diet resolved to defer for six weeks the deci-
siou of the affair, hoping to receive shortly the ra-
tification of the Convention fur the navigation of
the Elbe. and in the expectation of an amicable
arrengenient between the two parties.—(Frankfort

SATURDAY. Das f etass tio. 1821.
It is the intention of tht:Clovernment of Ireland
to make permanent the Spacial Commission ap-
pointed for the trial of pendia charged with offences
against the State as the disturbed districts of the
south of Ireland. This was intimated at Lime-
rick by the SOLICITOR-G.IIIIIAL on Saturday last,
when the trials of the several prisoners being closed,
the Learned Gentleman moved that the Commis-
sion should adjourn to the 12th of January. The
Court will then meet in whatever place the neces-
sities of the country may require, mod so from time
to time until the vigour and power of the law shall
hove effectually suppressed those pernicious prac-
tices which, whether arising from evil habits in the
social system, or from some defect in the moral and
religious instruction of the lower classes of the peo-
ple, Ireland has so frequently had cause to deplore.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in moving the ad-
journment of the Commission, took occasion to
make an eloquent speech, in which he commented
upon the distracted condition of the country,
and forcibly pointed out to the wretched ban-
ditti the certain destruction that they were hes!.-
ing upon themselves and their families. The
speech was calculated to produce a very salutary
effect upon the tone of the public mind in the
county of Limerick, as well by stimulating the
friends of social order to more active exertions, as
by deterring the turbulent and licentious from fur-
ther persevering in their flagitious courses. The
compliment which he psid to the Gentlemen of the
county of Limerick, who with such laudable zeal
came forward to serve upon the Petit Juries on
this solemn occasion, was eminently merited ; but we
have no hesitation in saying, that had they and their
countrymen of the same rank evinced equal energy
at the first manifestation of a turbulent spirit within
their county, in suppressing every attempt to violate
the public peace, this painful, and we hope we may
add, this final duty had not now been required of
them with such imperious necessity.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL further observed,
that the proceedings of the Commission had already
been attended with an evident improvement in the
stair of the country. It would be fearfully ominous
indeed for the future condition of Ireland, if the
terrible aspect of offended justice had not produced
some impression upon the minds of the multitude.
There is not upon earth a more imposing spectacle
than is offered by the mode of dispensing the cri-
minal law of this country. It must particularly
affect the irnaginatiou in (daces distant from the
ordinary seats of the courts of. law ; where cone.
quently it is only presented to the public mind at
certain stated and fax distant intervals, and there.
