A Letter from Dublin, dated, Saturday. half-past
seven o'clock at night, says, " Mr. Justice DALY
sat in the Court of King's Bench this day, for the

first time since the co

of the argument

in the case of Mr. Justice JOHNSON. It was pre-
viously understood that Lord Chief J ustice Downes
and Mr. Justice DAv differed, and Mr. Justice Os-
soana, being personally concerned, did not attend.
the Court determined to hear two Counsel on each
side. Mr. WCARTNLY, in an argument of two
hours, contended, that the arrest was not valid, and
that Mr. Justice JOHNSON ought to be discharged
without bail. The rest of the day was occupied
with the argument of Prime Serjeant Blows c upon
the other side."

The Court then adjourned to Monday, when
Mr. CURRAN was to be heard for Mr. Justice Jon tti-
see; and the Aviv's), ev GxecitAt. against him ;
after which, it was expeCted, the Court would give
judgment. It is generally thought among the Bar,
that the arrest will stand, and Mr. Justice JOHNSON
will be transmitted to England. He continues
under arrest ; but was not brought up to Court
on account of ill health.

We yesterday noticed the insidious condutt of
some of the daily prints, that labour to destroy the
harmony of the Government, which they profess to
defend. In this system of perfidy, a paper, that
affefts to have abjured the errors of Jacobinism and
become a convert to the faith of the Treasury, is a
principal performer. Oa Wednesday last it charged
the Opposition Writers with a " wish to sow dis-
sention and jealousy in the Cabinet," by endeavour-
ing to make Mr. .Pirr jealous of Lord S r DMOUTII; and,
after rebuking its fellow labourers in the Ministerial
Vineyard, whom it contemptuously called two or
three of Mr. PITT'S seribiling friends, for their
weakness in being drawn into such a contest, it

concluded with an assurance that " the reconcilia-
tion between Mr. PITT and Lord SIIMOUTiI is
hearty, cordial, and sincere." The •ery writer,
who used this language on Wednesday, made the
following observations yesterday in the very same

Paper :
" For time time we have heard reports of Mr. Canning's
intention), resign. The Coalition press has been particularly
directed against him for acting under Mr. Pitt with Mr. Ad•
disigton, as if the Costitian had rea-cm to suppose they would
be illOrt successful in their attacks against Mr. Canning on this
ground, than spinet ethos. Bin surely Mr. Canning cannot be
dissatisfied at the manner in which Mr. Addington ■ud his

friends return to office! lltey return vanquished, not triumphant.
How, then, can he be dissatisfied with the present Cabinet,
Little as he thinks of Mr. Addington, surely he will allow MID
talents sufficient to ke President of 013 Council T. pursue
%tr. Addington further, looks like personal malice it lots as
if Mr Canning wished to persecute him from'private resent-
ment, not to esclude him on public grounds. Mr Addington
a id his friends came to the Pittites Men, vanquished oppo
nests ; they kiss the rod, and accept of such things as Mr. Pitt
in his bounty shall be pleased to give. What could be riure
triumphant or satisfactory than this ?"
Now we would ask this consistent, not scrib-
bling writer, we suppose, who fears the harmony of
the Cabinet will be destroyed by making Mr. Pyre
jealous of Lord Sresoire, whether there be ao
