A numerous meeting of the coun,y of Cum irthen
was held on Wednesday last, at the shire-Hall, to
consider of an .ddrets to His MAJESTY on his re-
sistance to the measure of his late Ministers in lay 3Ur
of the Catholics. The proposition fur an address
was strongly opposed by Lord CAwnoa, Lord
Kmiec-ens, and Mr. ALLEN, on ac-.ount of the
late period at which it was btought lorward; and
the majority of the meeting concerting in this opi-
nioo, an adjournment was moved and carried.
An extraordinary circumstance occurred at the
late EleSion of Scotch Peers. It had been custo-
mary. at all preceding Elation', for the Peers
present to stand up whilst the Peisce's proxy was
delivered; but when the same courtesy was pio-
posed. on this occasion. it was strenuoesly resisted
by the Earl of HADDINOTON and his influence
was stach,ias to incline the majority to withhold the
customary respeft. There were some Noble Lords,
however. who felt they were not derogating from
their own dignity, in yielding to this established
usage. Amongst the Noble Lords. who received
the Peisice's Proxy, standing and uncovered. were,
Lords Seuet.g, Se mutts, Laves, Rata.o, and
I BLANTYRE.

On Saturday sennight, the hospitality of Raven..
inghare-house, Norfolk. was displayed in the true
Old English manner, on the occa.iiiii of N. Bacon,
Esq. coming of age. All the inhabitants of the
parish were most bountifully regaled in a spacious
booth, ereSed on the green. for that purpose. Lady
and Mrs. BACON graced this assembly of villagers
with their presence. and did the honours of the table.
The people of the neighbouring parishes likewise
were treated with ale, kc. and the whole was a
scene of joy and festivity. The day was afterwards
spent in feats of wrestling. racing of all kinds,
jumping in sacks, and other rustic sports s and a
grand firework was intended to have been exhibited
.1 the bvening, at the Hall. but owing to the ex-
treme unfavourableness of the weather. the display
did not take place 62 last Monday night.
The Royal battalion of Peterborough volunteer
infantry, celebrated the return of the King's birth-
day, Thur sday se'nnigbt. with distinguished loyalty.
The festivity which saceneded their military evolu-
tions was, however. interrupted is an awful and dis-
tressing way. The corps dined in divisions at dif-
ferent inns in the city, each of which was alternately
visited in the course of the afternoon by the Captain
Commandant, Joao SPOLDING. Esq. whnisit social
and convivial temper added greatly to the hilarity
of the parties I he was in particularly high spirits,
and his health having been drank at one of the
tables, had risen to return thanks to the company.
when he fell backwards and instantly expired. The
general concern, which this awful event occasioned.
is indescribable. An inquest was held the same
evening at the Wheat Sheaf inn. by Hewer Cots
Esq. Coroner for the Rev. the Dean and Chapter of
the Cathedral, and a Verdi& returned of—iasteet
death, through the imitative of Gad, by an apoplectic
stroke. On Sunday evening the body was interred
in the new burying ground of the city, with full mi-
litary honours, and attended by many hundred spec-
tators. Three excellent trollies were afterwards
fired over the grave. Mr. Seoustido's general
charader worthily endeared hips to all who knew
him. He bad an extensive medical practice, and
was, in his profession, a valuable friend to the hull?
So eminently did be possess the esteem of
gent of which be had the command, that the
members of it lately presented him with an elegant
sword. in token of their consideration. Ife has left

on the inhabitants of Dundee. by circulating a
printed paper. eostaining a list of the Ktno's
Pates for 1807, under the pretence of assiberst#
fr•nt GoverNeefft, and for which he demanded one

occasions he said that he came by authority of Gt.
Ilereinati. and at other times be said, in a mysterious
manner, be had iostrartials to leave the paper, and
that be would return end pat woe flit ai•as. In
this way many paid the money without farther
