THE ZINC'S VISIT 70 IREL4VD.
•
PoRTSMOUTR, AUGUST I.
My letter of yesterday contained an account of
the arrival and embarkation of his MAJESTY at this
place. In descending from the .platform to Atha
barge, his MAJESTY took the arm of Sir C. Patattf;:'
the Commodore, and heartily
.shook him by the'
hand. Sir CHARLES then had the honour of steer.
ing the barge to the Royal George yacht, which, in
consequence of she weather. having been coot&
dered unfavourable for his MAJESTY to reach
at Spithead, had been brought into the harbour
and moored there. At hult-past eight o'clock
the KING sat down to dinner on board the Royal
George, at which Lord Gariews, Sir HtEastoYE
TURNER, Sir EDMUND NAGLE, Colonel THORN-
TON, Slid Sir CHARLES PAGET, had the hooour to
be present. The facility of reaching the yacht,
from the circumstance of her being moored so near
the shore, offered an inducer/rem to many who were
anxious to obtain a sight of the KtNet, of which
great numbers availed themselves. Soon after his
MAJESTY arrived ou board, a tunnber of boasts, in
which were rich dressed females, repaired to the
yacht, cud continued around her until ten o'clock.
During his NIAJESTY'A dinner, the individuals in
the boats were afforded an opportunity of being
gratified by a sight of the Sovereign through the
windows of the cabin. and after dinner, at intervals,
with that gracious condescension which distiogeishes
him, the Kano shelved himself on deck, and ac-
knowledged, by bowing to those around, the en-
thusiastic greetings which awaited him at each
appearance. Ilia MAJESTY quitted the deck, and
retired to rest at ten o'clock.
This morning the yacht got under weigh, and
proceeded out of the harbour at lialf.pest eight
o'clock. lo her progress to Spithead she was
saluted by the guns of the Platform Battery and
Fort Monckton, and by the ships in the harbour
and at Spithead, decorated in their colours sod
with the yards manned. As soon as the Royal
George passed through Spithead, the signal was
given for the squadron appointed to attend the
KING to follow, when the whole got under weigh at
the same time, and proceeded with the yacht to
Cowes. It consisted of—
Tbe Royal George yacht, Commodore Sir C. Paget.
Royal Sovereign yacht. Captain Adam.
Liffry frigate, Hun. Capon* Duncan.
Active frigate, Sir J. Cordou.
Hind sloop. Sir Charles Burrard.
Lee brig, Captain Blacker.
Cameleon brig, Captain Nippy.
iVolf brit, Csptaio Vega's*.
Starling cutter, Lientegast Reeves.
Emerald yacht, tender to the Royal George.
Pearl yacht, brimming to the Marquis of Anglesey.
Louisa, Lord Craven's.
Falcon, lion. Mr. Pelham's.
With numerous others belonging to the Yacht Club,
„forming a gay summer squadron.
• It is understood the KING will anchor at Cowes
this evening, and, if the wind be favourable, will
proceed to-morrow morning for Ireland. Our naval
and military Commanders in Chief dine with the
KING at Cowes to-day. The KING will return
here from Ireland. •
DUBLIN, JULY 30.
We learn, with °lnch satisfaction. that subscrip.
tions to a considerable amount have been already
set down for the testimonial in honour of his Ma-
jesty's visit to this country. His Excellency the
Lord Lieutenant, the Lord Chancellor, the Attor-
ney and Solicitor-General, and several noblemen
awl gentlemen, are among those who have sub-
scribed.—(Freeman's Journal.)
' Yesterday, about half-past two o'clock, the
Lightning steam packet arrived at Howth, convey-
' ing as -the harbinger of his Majesty's arrival in this
country Sir Benjamis Blornefield and suite, and
Mr. Mash, besides several distinguished characters,
amongst whom were the Bishop of Oisory, and our
respected Lord Mayor Elect.
'Hie Lord Mayor and Sheriffs, and several mem-
' bers of the Corporation, received Sir Benjamin
Blomefield, lkc. on the Pier, with three cheers, as
welcoming him as the forerunner of our must gra-
, cisme Sovereign. The concourse of persons who
witnessed the arrival of the steam packet joined iu
the huuas.—( Dublin Journal.)
Extract of a private letter, dated Dublin, July
30:—" We expect the King this day week ; there
are great preparations making for him. The Castle
hair been fitted up most superbly; the lace for
the curtains colt seven guineas a yard. There
will be some very grand reviews in the Park.—
There are to be six regiments of cavalry in Dub-
lin, and all the infaatry within twenty miles. Every
seat 111 the theatre is engaged. It is reported his
Majesty will go four times to it during his stay
here. fits 1114jesty's Coachmen attracts great
notice here. lle is considered the largest man in
this city."

In addition to the resignation of the Lord Cham-
berlitio, report gives that of the Lord Steward,
and the reason assigned is the disappointment in
the promise of Dukedoms. We hive also heard it
whispered that. two favourite Marquises, not minis-
terial dependants, were objected to by the Cabiuet,
and therefore no new Dukes have been created.
By the oath administered to the Elmo, at the
coronation, he became bound to defend the church
of England and Ireland, but the Kirk of Scotland
is entirely forgotten—whether by mistake in ad-
ministering, or by the reporters mid printers, we do
not pretend to say; but certain it is, that in the
south of ticutland this omission has caused deep
speculationo.—(%oe Mercury.)
At Great Malvern, on the celebration of the coro-
nation, a ti at; our displayed on the tower of the
Abbey Church. This flag got entangled with one
of the pinnacles, and the wiud being fresh, some of
the stones were faced out, and falling upon the
roof of the church, penetrated through the ceiling
just as the congregation had depurted.
The following is a correct statement of the weight
of the ox killed by Mr. Mull, butcher, of Herr-
ford, for the poor on the day of his MAJESTY'S
coronation, and distributed to them with other

VENTILATION OF COVENT•GAIDEN THZATRI.
—The attractions of this place of amusement have
been considerably increased within the last few
nights, in consequence of the excellent manner in
which it has been ventilated. The theatre is per-
fectly free from that unpleasant and close smell ex-
perienced on entering other crowded assemblies,
and it is surprisingly cool, considering the state of
the weather and the numbers who frequent it.—
Without some adequate arrangement of this kind,
few amusements can compensate for the incon-
venience experienced in a heated and vitiated
atmosphere. The temperature of the House of
Lords has been frequently uu to 900, and the
[louse of Corunions has baffled every attempt
hitherto made to ventilate it. The Courts of Law,
too, are intolerably close and oppressive. Covent-
garden theatre has now a constant current of air
passing through ever.), part, and its temperature is,
even on the most crowded nights, not higher than
summer heat.

The following tragi-comic paragraph appears in
a Paris paper of Sit Delay :
" On Thursday some boatmen took a man out of the Seiue,
who had thrown himself in from the Pont-au-Change. Ou
conveying him to the Corp* de Garde, they succeeded in re-
covering him. He was no sooner restored than he assured
the Commissary of Police very seriously, that as soon as be
WWI free he should take the Arst opportitnity of drowning
himself. The Commissary proposed to hinito sign a decla-
ration of his intention he destroy himself, and to which the
map readily ■greed At this juncture a female arrived,
loudly screaming, •Mu husband, I will see my husband!'
When, however, she found him alive, she was immediately
silent. The boatman approached her, to ask fur some
reward for baying saved her husband, when ■he angrily
►epulsed them, saying, • Why did not you td Aim draw*
harwrif 1 what butanes, had you to waddle) with Atm 1'
These words bad the effect uf curial; the husband of his folly,
and he 'wore that he wuuld uot again attempt to drown
himself."

The house of Mr. Prows, plumber, at Edmonton, was
broken into on Tuesday night and robbed of bl sovereigns'
and other property.

• SLIFCTION OP AN ALDE'Rktilf
FOR THE WARD OF CHEAP. .
Yeeterdey Wardmote of the Inhabitants of die
Ward of Cheap Was held at the Church of St.
Lawrence Jewry, Cateatou-street, for the purpose of
electing a fit and proper person to serve the office
of Alderman, in the room of Richard Rothwell,
Eeq. deceased. The Wardmote was most numerously
and respectably attended. The precept having beta
read, the LORD MAYOR opened the business of the
day ia a neat and appropriate speech, in which he
lamented the occasion, and he paid a tribute of
respect to their deceased Alderman, in whose death
the-Ward bad doubtless sustained a severe loss,
which it was that day's duty to endeavour, if pos.
Able, to supply.
Mrs BURT then proposed William Thompson,
Begs-Citizen and Ironmonger. as a fit and proper
person to nerve the office of Alderman, which, the
speaker said shortly, he had no doubt, the Gentle-
man he proposed would fill to the setisfection of
the whole Ward.
Mr. Bowen seconded the nomination.
A pause took place, during which no one came
forward to propose any other Candidate.
The LORD MAYOR then took the show of
hands, and declared Williaui Thompson, Esq.
Citizen and Ironmonger, to be duly and unani-
mously elected. •
• Mr. THOMPSON came forward, and said it became
his duty to return thanks to the inhabitants of the
Ward who had so highly honoured lulu by their
unanimously electing him to preside over them.
Mr. JAMES rose to move an expression of the
Ward to the memory of their deceased Alderman,
nod in doing so, called to their recollection that he
had the honour to propose him to them on the
death of Alderman Goodbehere in 1818. and took
a retrospective review of the career of the late Alder-
man since that time, and said, he did not hesitate
to attribute his premature and lamented death to
the zeal and ardour with which he had executed
the arduous and difficult duties of the office.
Mr. BROOKS seconded the resolution., which
were put in their original form and carried unani-
mously.
They were then ordered to be printed in the
morning and evening papers, and circulated in the
Ward, in he fairly transcribed and presented to
Thorns. Rothwell, Esti.
Mr. JAMES moved the thanks of the Wariboote
to the Lord Mayor, for the gentlemanly manner
iu which he had conducted the business of the
day..
The Resolution was carried unanimously, and
the LORD MAYOR returned thank..
Mr. LocKSLEY begged, on account of the infir-
mities attendant upon age and long service, to be
allowed to resign his situation as Deputy. The
Alderman elect conferred the situation upon Mr.
Brooks, as the senior Common Councilman.
Thanks were voted to Mr. Locksley for his past
services.

His Honour the MASTER of the ROLLS will
hear consent causes, further directions, and peti-
tions, on Monday next, August 6, at nine o'clock

feu to rue, ...its the nutmeat of Mr. Alderman ♦sle, yogic
Postmaster, puffin into his hoods the letter teemed by him
from you."

Mr. Alderman Vale, in his Postmaster's Report to yord,
stales, dud the It tier in question (that is, my letter to Mr.
Alderman Whitwell, dated the 16th ult), "was regularly
received and regularly delivered," and takes upon himself to
add, "and, I believe, the parties must know the feet." Whn
Mr. Alderman Vale denominates and means by "the parties,"
be does not explain, nor ran I conjecture; but be may pus.
*Oily be right, that 1 may have known the fuel on the 29th
tilt. when be made the above report to yea, as the tiers Al-
dermen exhibit themselves on the preceding day, viz. the
28th, to have been in close and profound consultation en
this most perplexing subject; and common sense forbids
doubt, that it was with tlw Postmaster's kit...ledge, his aJ.
vice, and concurrence, that Mr. Alderman Whitwell made
his written avowal to me, and sent the Respected leiter to a
printer iu order to give it the publicity to vs Inch it was ori-
ginally entitled. In other words, I dare trot doubt, that, on
the 29th, Mr. Alderman Vale recollected .hat had pursed on
the 28th, in deliberate consullatiom, between him and his
colleague, Mr. Ahlermau Whitwell; and, therefore, Alder-
man Vale felt authorized to assert, "that the patties must
know the fact" so communicated to me by Mr. Alderman
Whitwell on the 28th, sod nut before.
But Mr. Alderman Vale's Report, now before me, is quite
silent as to the hang and important interval of dormant
time between the 19th ultimo, when my letter mutt have
been received, and might then to have commanded 'ohm-
tory publicity. and the 28th ultimo, when it was corn-,
puloively acknowledged to have been received, awl wawa.
is the same compulsive spirit, it sae sent to a printer for
publicity.
Tho Report of the Postmaster, however, is conelosiee,
that my letter was certainly delivered io AO. Alderman Whit-
well on the 1916 ultimo, because ME Alderman. Vale re-
ports that 4 the letter in question was regularly
.reeeived,
aril regularly delivered ;" now the verity of this report can
wily he sustained by ray letter having been so regularly re-
ceived, mod so regularly &hover(' to Mr. Alderman Mister:ll,
on the morning of the 19th niCtlia only time when it could
be regularly received end dslir

under the Act of 47th Geo. 111, for the regulation
of the coal trade. By the Act of 9th Anne, it was
enacted thlt the coal-fitter's certificate should lie
delivered to the clerk of the market within 24 hoots
after the arrival of the ship westward of Blackwell ;
and by the 47th Gen. 111. the duty of delivering
such certificate was imposed on the Captain of the
ship. The object of the regulation was to euforce
each ship coming on sale in its proper turn. A so-
ciety had been formed for the avowed purpose of
putting this law in force, but their proceedings 01.
timately terminated in communicating with the
masters of the vessels, and fur a payment of t.,,
or twenty shillings paid to the Society or UK It

was brought by a person who was desirous that the
law should really be carried into execution. The
present case was shortly this :—The Liiik Mary, of
which the Defendant was the Captain, sailed frau*
North Shields with a cargo of coals, and arrived
in the night of the 14th of March at Halfway Reac!i,
which is eight or nine miles from Blackwell, 3.t
the coslfitter's certificate was lodged in the proper
office early that morning.
Witnesses were called and examined who proved
the facts.

tl.c 106th ration, would be gooskir law. The Learned Doc-
tor then proceeded to cite several cases is support of his po.

Dr. POILUSOIII was disposed to think that the language
of the 911 e canon could prove nothing in the matter new be-
fore the Court; for it clearly applied only to the regulation
of the Arches anal Atidiesce Courts, providing merely that
roar should be cited therein who were not dwellers is the
Archhishop'• diocese, or else in his peculiars. The words

i; thisgeot lemma (kV r. Chichester) intervened at all, and indeed
he disputed his liability to he made a pasty, be must he
content to take the case as he found it. Heat least was within
the jurisdiction of the Court; and no doubt the Court would
ruje that it was not competent for him to raise PIS objection
as on the part of another person, namely, Lady Donegal.
As to that Lady, there was nothing to prove that she was not
within the jurisdiction of the Court ; and fur the reasons
•Ire ady alleged by Liss, he (Dr. Phillimure) trusted that the
objec:i./ii which had been urged could nut be sustained.
Dr. Jerre ADDAMS, Or the pins side, mitered into a short
argument fur the purpose of showing that not ouly the 94th
art/ 106th, but several of the preceding stud following
eelzted entirely to the judicial regulations of the Arches and
Audience Courts ; that upon the authority of the cases ri'ed
by his learned leader, it was obvious that the simple sp-
'entrance of the party to the citation was sufficient to (timid
tic jurisdictions, aud that therefore this could not he me*
eroded to be a proceeding eorain non Judice. This objees:
C. 412, in fact, ass strictly a plea in abatement; and, as such,
one that ought to have been liken advantage of before issue
was kilned an the case.
Lou.' STOWILL felt that the stream of authorities was in
favour of the biudiug a party by his voluntary appear taco;
and therefore was of opinion that the jurisclictiou of the
Count in this matter was established.
Dr LIAHINGTOX had no difliculy in saying that it would
hr very desirable that Mr. Arthur Chichester should have the
solemn judgnosit of some Court or other in this ease. At
the nine time he wished to consult for a few minutes with
bis Lessard nerved, Dr. Swabey, before lie addressed his
Lordship (if be should feel that course to be necessary), hay.
ing certainly anticipated a different opinion from the Court
upon the question of juried,coon.
The two Learned Comm! then withdrew for a short time,
anti on their return,
Dr. SWA•IY tuformed his Lordship, that Mr. Chichester,
fee'ing the matter to be one of estreme importance, intended,
with greet deference and respect for this Court, to appeal,
11... s protest being overruled, to some other Court. It might
be the Delrgatea, or a tribunal of another character. Under
Cmse circninstances. neither himself nor his Learned
,end felt it a duly to address uue word more to hot Lord-
abtp upon this matter.
After some observations from the other Counsel, the alle.
givioti of the Marquis of Donegal was admitted without op-
positiou.
