tu►day, when Mr. flaw deli4hted an elegant au-
dience by hi• admirable &chore:ion of the arduous
character or the Stranger. Hui scene iii the foorth
act, with the Berea, was highly finished. The
uo-
eelty of the evening arose from Mrs. Ree's making
an appeal to the candour of an Aberdeen public, in
the character of Mrs. Keller, it being, as we were
informed, her third appearanee on any stage. She
teemed much eintnimtmed, and was thereby pre-
vented flout exhibiting those powers, iia their full
'force, which, it was evident, she possessed; she,
however, displayed much intellect, and, when di-
ve-red of her timidity, we augur well of her success.

peeled hrforr tile Court, regarding the auccessioni
of the late Niro. Bu. h main. of Crapticyrere. Wad de-
cided thi Timmins, in **.r Second Division. •

The Lunn .1 usricy CLERK stated, that as the
opinions of Ike Jul rr were unanimous, in place of
each Judge ;;ir leg a detailed op•aion, it had been
agreed that lie should deliver the setifunelits of the
Court. Ile then, in a very able and articulate
'Teich, detailed the circumstances of the case, and
pointed out the grounds on which the Court had
(mimed the unanimous and decided opinion, that,
the letter or settlement founded on by the defenders,
Mr. and Mrs. M•Nab, never could have been known
to, or executed by, the late llrs. Pitchman, and
that the saint was a most audacious forgery, and
must he entirely reduced and set aside as such.—
Ile concluded anti stating, us the reason of not pro-
ceeding to iofl ct punishment on the defeititrrs..for
founding oil this deed, knowing it to he forged,
that, as there were two defenders, it was probable
that the forgery might be known only to one of
them, and not to the ether, and while there was
doubt, it was the duty of the Court to lean to the
side of mercy ; but that the person guilty inns( he
left to the stings of his own conscience, and to the
feelings cf disappointed guilt, which, iii this called
would probably be no alight punishment ; in addi-
tion to which. anti as a matter of Justice to the
pursuer, that Litt defenders must he tumid liable in
the full and heavy expenses of this law suit.

THE EXCHANGE OF PRISONERS.

We have already stated that very little bore
could be entertained of the successful termination
of the negotiation for the exchange of prwooers of
war ; ■nd 'we stated our couerctiou that it would
appear that this &Vore was wholly attributable
t., the tinjinit and arrugaat preteuaious of the
French G.v Tumult.

The proposition of the French was much more
unreimotable (hail we had at firq supposed ; it was
not, as we stated; to exchange the Bratash and French
Cu moue. raid afterwards to release the Spaniards in
the hand. of France; but it was, that for every 1000
French prisoners released II this country, we should•
Set in return, not 3000 British, but.l.ooo British
old 2000 Allies ;.ind this too clogged with a Condi,-
non, that the Allies were to he sent to their respec-
tive coautrim by us, and at our expense !
To such u propoition. so contrary to all the pH's-
ciples sisal 'towed on which exchanges have beeu
heretofore conducted, and so revolting to our ne-
utrals' feeling and honour, by the delay it would oc-
castor, to the rele ate of our own counttymea,, our
Government, of course, has not Receded.

IVe feel with regard to our allies the utmost cor-
diality and esteem, and we highly approve the coil-
duct of our Government to apply to the relief of
their prisoners the surplus of Fiend; that might
remain in our hands after the liberation of all the
British should hare beau effected ; but we mint say
that this c,mutry never could have tolerated so
tnonstrous and so inartifyinr., an arrangemeut as
that Frenchmen made prisoners by British valour,
and at the expense of British blood and treasure,
should be set at liberty in eschange I. foreigners,
while our own soldiers and sailors still lingered in
captivity.
The determination of the French Government.
to release the British only in the proportion Of
one for every three Frenchmen, having been initified
to Mr. Mackenzie, he had, we understand, de-
manded his pa.sports, and the negotiation may be
said to have terminated. We lament it fur the
sake of the individual suff,ters ; but if, after so
many and so important concessions as we under.
stand have hero made to the French, they were
still unsatisfied, and at last required, us a sine gem
110 x, • stipulation so manifestly injurious to the tit•
terests, and so derogatory to the honour of Great
Windt), we cannot but congratulate the country on
the termination of a negotiation which teems to have
been conducted, on the part of the French, with
scarcely any other object than that of iusult ur de.

There was some difference with regard to the
numbers to Le released on account of the Hano-
verian army of Walmoden; but the more important
point of the release of all the British in the first 111
stance. was that on which the success of the nego-
tiation chiefly depended ; though the absurd claims
of the Freuch,in the Hanoverian qiiestson.conl.l not
hale been admitted, even if the other difficulty bad
not been raised.

From:the following authentic notice, which has
appeared in some of the papers, the public is at
length likely to be gratitled by an at:count of some
hitherto mysterious particulars, relative to the loves-
tigidion in which this celebrated lady acted so con-
spicuous a !out, and various circouistauces to which
it gave rise :

" A candid and impartial Appeal to the Piddle will be sub-
mitted in a abort time, with a plain Statement of Faris, ac-
companied with letters, written by Messes. Dodd, 111' Mahon,

of which should base 1.... en read on the investigation ; others,

certain personages, in the court that day. This considers_
tune, In my opinion, ought not to have bail any iufluence in •
court of justice, more especially when the personal safety of
three individuals was in such inimident peril; the c►aracters,
reputation, and future welfare of their families, so deeply
involved; under these circumstances, nothing ought to have
been smothered, or cluilied In mystery, as the whole of the

thus a fortuiglit had elapsed. He trould stir that a
ronsiight under such cir, urristinicee ova a most sin-
portant period. The Right Honourable Gentle-
men had stated that lie would be respousibta for
the Army and the Trentsuly ; bo what eon of
responaibilsty was this i Did :)e not suite a prin-
ciple dangerous to the Commtution ; a principle
tihichfe some cines might lead to a mode of acting

a,.d he was bold tosay that his was Of the latter kind.
He had told the Committee what he ought not,
instead of telling the country that basun reedy to
enter on the necessary measures for its safety. He
would ask why the Chancellor hid nut affixed the
Seal to prorogue the Parliament? Why do we
gland in till. situation, if the Chancellor could affix
the Seal to any Act of the Millisment ? The fact
was.anJ he knew it, that the Chancellor had refused
to put the Seat to a Commission of the Peace. lie
could not sit down without referring to the question
of last night—he would do it in at few word:,: it
was one of considerable difficulty. The Purled-
maid acted in both cases—in the one with the
appearance of Executive Government, in the other
without it. As to the affixing of the Great Seal,
the Chancellor might refuse it physically and mo-
rally to the House, but he could out refuse it
to the Regent, according to the principles of the
Constitution. After proceedie4 iu a strain of
great aiiimation, the Honourable and Learned
Member concluded by entreating the House to re-
consider the measures they were called on to adopt;
end though they may admire the holdtics" of the
Right Honourable Gentleman, they should guard
against the consequences of his ambition.
Mr. Peat:EV.4r. rose to explain, and hoped that
whatever personal animosity the Lion, and Learned
Gentleman, might entertain, he would do justice
to the us tees by which he had been actuated in
the course which lie pursued.

Hewes a health to the Good Fellows under the Sun.

And Love's the rich ground

And their besets are as rapes as honest Hoek lives.
More sure than the gripe of a afamoo, the glance
Of a Good Fellow's eyes Good Fellow discovers ;
By the instinct of nature he hails the blest chance,
That gives a new friend to namikinds mauly lovers :
Not by jealousy seen,
Titre' her embeds of green,
Nor silence or coldness the stranger repel
" Yet, a Prophet is I,"
Is the Good Fellow's cry,
" The worth of the heart in the face I foretel.'•
And chat the' some viper thrice subtle May wear,
Seneatb a mai front, the ilesicus of a devil,
Shall we all be the victims of darition4 so rime.
And spurn the rich harvest for mildews of evil!
With Sospleioe's cold art,

May be dwell in the shade with the snake and the tusi ;
While our ann brightly shine,
And with lustre divine,
Of tees free and &arks, illumines the road.

Whose friendship grows slow like the heart of the trees!
