POLITICAL AUCTION.
•
Ku. I.
Doe ROTTEN !keno, Conte Representivo, has
been induced, by the report of a speedy dissolution
1 Parliament, to open a magnificent suite of rooms,
in Patliament-street„ where all Gentlemen who
mean "to propose themselves as Candidates for the
representation of Cqunties, Cities, Towns, or
Boroughs, in the ensuing Parliament of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, may be
accommodated with the following necessary articles,
to be disposed of in lots, and knocked down to the
highest bidder :
LOTS.
No. 1.--A large quantity of promises and affec-
tionate Lugs and squeezes, embellished with a pro-
fution of sweet smiles, tender looks, and gentle
wishes. The promisee are a little broken, and the
smiles a little tarnished w;th the tears of the wearer.
In reher respells these articles are as good as new,
and were lately the property of a Lady of Fashion,
upon whom they were bestowed by a favourite Gal-
hnt, a few months before she was divorced from
her hu.sbaall.
No. lI.—A very fine set of constitntional and in-
ireendent principles, of the purest quality, formerly
ha possession of certain sinecure placemen and pen.
sioners, and though long in use, not a jot the worse
for the wear.
No. 111.—A new edition of Magna Charts,
pr.• red upon iSoiseep, for the benefit of simple
Kilcaors.
No. IV.—An immerse bundle or integrity,
ratuality, honour, and,honesty, contained in pro-
assissory netts and hills of exchange, passed several
yours ego by a set of anonymous money lenders,
now in Botany Bay. These articles, which are as
good as new, will be disposed of at 90 per cent.

under prime cost.
No. V. Several unredeemed pledges. These
were formerly the property of certain lives and for-
Awes men, of high rank and charaiter, and were
originally considered of great value.
No. VI —An immense assortment of Cant, an
article in high esteem and great demand among all
Pseudo patriots and politicians. For the value and
quality of this stuff, reference may be had to speeches
upon the Union by Viscount Castlereagls, an emi-
sew wholesale dealer in this sort of manufacture.

ARIGHTON, Ocr. 21.
The wind has lately got round to the sonthws
and blowing right for St. James's, has already sea
away a Dumber of ear Fashionable,. Upwards of
thirty departures took place yesterday. Today we
bate had some very heavy rain, with a very heavy
sea. If this weather continue, lodgings will be
cent. per cent. cheaper. The Dragoon who met
with the accident, during the sham-fight, is not
dead, as has been reported. He retains his sense!,
and is likely to do well. The Green Men is like-
wise in as favourable a state as can be expedted,

ANNIVRAISART OF THE BATTLE OP
TRAFALGAR.
A party of gentlemen, amounting' to forty, who
reside ill the neighbourhood of Cavendish-square,
met lint Tuesday, at the White Hart Tavern, in
Wigmote.streo, Cavendish-square, according to
agreement. to celebrate every year the Anniversary
of the Battle of Trafalgar. A 6ne portrait of
Lord Nelson, value one hundred guineas, purchased
by the gentlemen of the Society, and painted by C.
Heather, Esq. was suspended in the room in which
the Society met. It is nearly as large as life, and
represents the late gallant hero, with his left hard

MILITAHY TOUR.

NYC
A new military road and canal is now forming
round this port. A troop of the ith Dragoon.
Guards, and a strong detachment of the Waggon
I rain are quartered in the barracks. The latter are
employed on the King's works. 10 the Westward
of theaown is another Mattello tower. Some new
roads and bridges have lately beer. finished, as you
approach to Wmchelsea, in which place is sta-
tioned the Ist Somerset Militia, and half a squadron
of Dragoons.
DY MCHURCH-WA IL.
This part of the coast is so flat, that the encroach-
ments of the sea are obliged to be checked by artifi-
. vial means. But for Dymchurch-wall, which is
composed of piles, faggnis, and other dam ma-
terials, the cou try would be inundated for
miles. The piles almost extend to the low water
mark, in ord,,r to break the violence of the surf
when the tide flows, which would otherwise force
away the embankment The forts and hlartello
towers are continued at nearly equal distances, along
this shore, as tar as Dungeness Of the latter there
are 13, besides one grand tower in the centre, ca-
pable of holding I,ono men. This is intended for
the head-quarters of t e regiments that shall in'
future occupy ter- extensive lines of fortifications.
The batteries are le;s numerous than the towers, and
are nearly all of the same make and strength, except
one, which is ennsiderahly iarger than the rest, and
is called the Grand Redoeit. this is situated near
Lyd ; so that with the Grand Tower in the centre,
the Grand Redoubt on the Bank, and their minor de-
pendencies, our security, wnett they are manned
and completed, will be amply provided for. Some
little encampments are .formed between Hythe and
Romney, for the convenience of the several parties
employed on this immenre line of works. I' he
parties are commanded by a due proportion of of
.detached from their corps expressly for the
purpose.

These are cavalry quarters. The barracks are at

take the coast duty from hence to Dover. Here, an
intire new scene begins to present itself. To arid
plains of shingle now succeed verdant meads
of grass. The sudden transition from the barren
coast to the rich pasturage of the marshes, which
aro coverel with cattle, is a prospeß highly grati
lying and delightful. To the contemplative mind
of the philosopler, such a contrast must prove an
agreeable source of relied:lion. These luxuriant
meadows are beautifully interseßed with dyke., and
are occasionally overflowed by opening the sluices.
fly this means, the pasturage is rendered so rich,
as to be peculiarly adapted to the fattening of sheep
and oxen. The military canal at Hy the runs
through these marshes, and terminates at Rye.—
In ease of a descent, this part of the country is
capable of being inundated for a vast extent ; on the
slightest alarm, means are instantly resorted to for
driving the cattle, persons possessed of local know-
ledge being always kept in readiness for that purpose.
1141 STINGS.
The romantic scenery of the neighbourhood,
which is beautifully variegated with wood, and with
water, has lost nothing of its wonted attradtion.
Hastings has had to boat of as fashionable an assem-
blage of visitors, during the late season, as any of
its contemporary watering places. We are nearly
deserted at present ; but, at such an advanced pe-
riod, it is hardly to be wondered at. Our town is
not considered, like Brighton, and many others, a
winter residence. The herring fishery has com-
as:need under very favourable auspices, and conti-
nuos to be successful, almost beyond example. Build-
ing, of late, has increased most wonderfully ; upon
a principle toe, that we are surpri•Nl is not more
generally adopted on the coast. Several spacious
mansions are now ere Ring, which are intended to
be fitted up after the manner of sets of chambers in I
the Inns of Court. These will be finished and corn-
pleted for the reception of different families against
the ensuing summer. This fashion, we think, needs
only to be made public, to become more prevalent.
There can be no doubt of its answering, and of
its amply repaying the speculations of its spirited
proprietors. Most people prefer distina and sepa-
rate suites of rooms, to that promiscuous sort of inter-
course to which they must be necessarily liable in a
professed lodging.honse. In the barracks is sta-
tioned the Bch regiment of Foot. A troop of the
4th Dragoon Guards is cantnned in the town.—
Battle and Silver-Hill, which, from the nature of
the country, have been usually occupied by battalions
of Light Infantry, in consequence of the late em-
barkations, are now vacant. Sir Arthur Wellesley
cmoriod, this part of the Sussex distria, and makes
Hastings his head-quarters. The General is absent
as present on leave.

A Hat boor Sessions was held at Dover on Monday,
six „ewe) the Lord Warden attended. It is said, maoy
alterations are to take place ; one of which is, that
of piloting vessels for the harbour, which has hitherto
been dims in a pernicious way, ~nd frequently much
difference has arisen between the Captains and Pilots,
to der away which, it is said, a certain number of
qualified persons are to be appointed, and a propor-
tionable price affixed ; and this the cubs: is to ex-
tend to Ranrgate.

A woman, named Mary Janet, was brought up
for her second examination, on a charge of uttering
counterfeit shillings. She was examined the first
time on Monday -last. The Solicitor for the Mint
attended yesterday, and the Prisoner was committed
for trial.

MARL soapy a it-ST s.,E IT.
In consequence of the depredations which have
been recently committed on the property of uphol-
sterers, arid particularly on that of Mr. Wilmot,
John-street, Oxford-street, he has been on the alert
in searching for a part of the stolen property, and
has succeeded in finding some furniture. Stc. ex the
house of Ann Reskall, who keeps an old iron shop in
Green's-court, Little Pulteirey-street. A s h-
warrant was procured, and Foy and Burton, on
going to the house of the Prisoner, yesterday,
brought away with them bed-ticks, mattress-cases,
pieces and remnants of furniture, to the amount of
about 501. ; and also Ann Rockall and her daugh-
ter. A considerable part of the property was iden-
tified by Mr. Wilmot, who suspeCted hr. porter of
limning been the robber, and who was consequently
ryen into custody.
Thesystem of depredation by porters, appears to
' e extended itself throughout the principal hou,es
la the trade. They have a regular committee, for
the purpose of conduCting their net arious praftices;
•tad the better to evade justice, a fund is also esta-
blished, for the benefit of legal advice, to those who
should be in want of it.

A second search was made in the course of yes-
terday, when some table-spoons, marked T. F. a
table-cloth with a coronet on it, and a cypher, and
other articles of plate. &c. sere found con waled.
Other 4pholimilims identified part of the property,
and the prisoners were renianded until Thursday
next, to give persons who have been rubbed, an op-
poi tunity of identifying the property.

SUICIDE.

. .
A very melancholy ease occurred lately in Dub-
lin. Mr. M.Lean, an eminent Dentist, residing near
Rutland-square, placed a young and beautiful
danehter at a serninAry in that city, for the corn?
pleting her education ; and, on her return to her
fond parents, they found grten-eyed melancholy
had taken possession of her mind. For some time, it
appeared impossible to remove it; at last she began to
partake of the amusements natural to her sea and
age, and her fond parents looked forward with de-
light to the restoration of her r.atural cheerfulness
But vain were their hopes; on the fatal night the
wont to bed in good spit its, accompanied by a
female attendant, whose watchfulness being lulled
into security, fell asleep, whcis Miss M‘Lean stole
out of bed, opened the s trl,, .and t.ff ber fis-
tulae, precipitated herself tiomthetwo.pair of stairs

o'clock in the morning, when she was found by
jm- !•:, 4n, of the Police, who alarmed the family-
shLtj - wan did not permit the body to be removed
iv.; the Inquest was held. They brought in their
:rdit, fstna,-3r.
About a year since, these disconsolate parents
lost another beautiful daughter, who went to a ball
in full health and spirits, and in going down the
dance, burst a blood-vessel, and died on the spot.
We should not touch on this melancholy subjeft,
did we not observe, in the provincial Papers, au in-
coned account of this unhappy business.
Two clans, or fanions, as they are called, living
in the parish et Ballivourney, in the county of
Cork, having disagreed upon some sullen or other,
determined upon deciding the misunderstanding
by a battle, in which each party was to bring what-
ever strength they could cones into the held. The
day of the engagement was appointed to be last
Sunday se'onight, and their determination was not
a matter of secrecy in the neighbourhood. On that
day they met; and in the preparation for anion,
several stand of arms were added to pistols, swords,
scythes. sticks, Ste. It commenced at break of day,
and continued, without the parties closing, until the
principal part upon each side were wounded and
disabled. Though one party had the superiority in
nomber, they were yet greater sufferers than theirs
adversaries, for the other, as it is stated to us, pro-
cuted as an auxiliary, a soldier, who was a deserter,
whose services they purchased for two guineas ; and
this man, by Teeing his piece upon a bark, uner-
ringly brought down the man he aimed at, and he
was generally pointed out to him, for his strength or
resolution. In this brutal conflinr, YO people were
wounded; two of whom have been despaired of :
the tenacity with which each party maintained their
ground, in contempt of destrmlion, was exttaor-
uhlary. Every friend to peace and good order
will lament grin outrageous intranion of the peace
and tranquillity of the Country. Our statement is
from good authority; and it is not as minute is
the recital of this infamous affair, as it has been
stated to us. The fairs of the country are becom-
ing places fur the execution of vinchltive resent-
ments, entertained by the lower classes.--(C*4
Mere. Chronicle. J
A young man was last week committed to gaols
at Bristol, oa a charge of having stolen sortie hoe&
from on board one of the vesseis trading from
Swansea to Bristol. He hid it seems, pur-
loined several cash notes from the cabin of another
trader, then lying in Bristol river, hut the greater
part was afterwards recovered. On the robbery
being destined, much anxiety prevailed in both ves-
sels to discover the offs der, and the cunning cap-
tains 'fluidly went to consult a tennis: wewen for
that purpose; nr. being introduced to the S.rcereis,
and depositing 6eota.geieee as a fee, she informed
them that she could not sheer theta a likeness of the
thief till after sun set, upon which they retired ; and
, on visiting the antiquated Sybil again in the even-
ing, found her so completely iitostrated by the
produce of the moraines adventure, that they
spitted her in disgust, heartily repeating their cre-
dulity.

inclined to believe, that re:loaions may be effected
in this branch of the establtiliment.

quired to report, whether it may be praCticable to

to be annually distributed amongst those students
who shall have made greatest proficiency in the
prescribed ,studies of the College, has been reduced
from rupees 23,000 to rupees 19,000 per annum.
If. The encouragement to be granted by the
College to Oriental literature; including all ex pences
of the press, subscriptions for literary antics on the
part of Government, and rewards to natives of In-
, die who may produce any literary works of utility,
will in future be rests led to the sum of rupees
40,000 per annum, the average annual amount of
the charges incurred for these important purposes
during the last four years.

extent of this fund, would intirely defeat its great
and beneficial of jests. The charge cannot, haw-
ever, be consideted as a part of the ezpeace of the
College; lour Government in India, with your
sanaion, has been in the constant habit of affording
its patronage to the authors of all works of merit,
publisiied its this country, by subscriptions on the
pat t of the Company, fur a considerable number of
copies cf such works ; without such aids, the heavy
charge of printing would have deprived the authors
of the means of enabling the public to profit by their
Elbow 1; and the fund from which the •übscriptions
wete formerly made, being now placed under the
superintendance of the Council of the College, whom
duty it is to ascertain the value of every work, befere•
any encouragement is given to its author, the Ge.
velment possesses sufficient security, that its bolus-

To our general mortification, we have still no

weeks on board. The wind, when we came down,
and for warne time after, was most favourable ;
should we dontinue here much longer, aad the wind
get foul, our stock will be exhausted, a;,d an un-,
favourable time of the year approaches for fleets
sailing. Our Commander, Colonel Crawfurd.ll,,s

After having related the trial and execution of
the King, the Historian continues :
Thes fell Lewis the XVlth, in the Seth year
el his age, and 19th of his reign ; and with him
fell the monarchy of France, which, under three
dynasties. had existed nearly fifteen centuries. So
strong, at the time of his accession, was the general
sentiment in his favour, that he was greeted with
the title of Leath the llesired. Nor. though after-
wards branded with every term of obloquy, did he
ever merit the hatted of his suliesfis. In some mea-
sure he resembled our Charles the First; to whose
history he paid great attention. A comparison,
however, of their condufl. when involeed in diffi-
culties, is hhly favourable to the Etiglish Sove-
reign. Chases maietained. with vigoar and by
arms, a centest of some years duration ; and, when
at Iregth overcome, still priserving his native dig-
nity, notionally refused to acknowledge the autho-
rity of that esurped jurisdiflion by which he was
arraigned. He lost his crown and life, but he pie-
d inviolate the repetition of waive courage and
unconvemble spirit. Lewis may, perhaps, with
more ptopriety,-he compared to the sixth fien-y.
With greater abilities than Henn-, he bad, in some
parts of his charaffer and situation, a strong simi.!
Laity to that Monarch. Both were pious; both,
isriffident of themselves, and therefore easily sernyed
'by others, espoused Princesses of elevated' Minds ;
leith were driven from their thrones by rebellion,
and both perished by an untimely death.
The understanding of Levels was much above me-
diocrity ; be Dad acquired a vast fund of know ledge
by reading ; his memory was remarkably tena-
cious ; and bit judgment, in arranging, combining,
and applying, what his memuty had retained, was
often displayed in a manner that was highly credita-
ble to him. On the relative state and in.erests of
France and the European powers, his information
WAS by no means inconsiderable. History and vets.
graphy were two of his favourite studies. To the
former he rail much attention ; and. such was his
proficiency in the latter, that the detailed instruftions
to the ill-fated navigator, Perouse, were drawn up
by his own hand : lie was indeed supposed to to the
best geographer in his kin., dom. With some of the
mechanical arts he was alio seal acquainted, and
even oicasionally praaised them.
In his moral =aloft he was unimpeachable.
Just, beneficent, a good husband. a good father,
and lover of his peaple, he would, had he lived in an
age less turbulent, when the higher talents are not
required in a ruler. have done honour to a throne.
Itut he did not satisfy himself with mere morality,
which, when unsupported by religion, is little to be
depended upon. His piety too was exemplary. The
faith in which he and his ancestors had been edd-
cited, he followed, with sincerity and warmth, but
without any mixture of ill-dirdled and uncharitable
seal. On the rawcy and goodness of the Deity he
relied with an unfeigned confideace. That reliance
afforded him consolation in the latter stormy period
of his reign, and fortitude in the hew of death. It
enabled line to triumph over blander, captivity, and
the grave.
But, numerous as his viruses certatoly were, there
was one mister fault which ran through and vitiated
the whole of his condua. He wanted that firmness
and decision, without which the greatest virtues are
sometimes worse than unclip. A Monarch shosld
know as well kJ,/ to make himself feared as loved.
I. vulgar minds,rdere affeflion soon degenerates into,
something bordering upon contempt. His orders
can never be disobeyed or slighted without prejudice
to himself. Lewis yielded at those very moments
when he should most rigorously have enforced obe-
dience ; when he should fully have asserted his au-
thority, or abandoned life and authority together.
Passive courage he possessed ; but not &flirt.
Yet even this had its rise is a fault ; but it was a
fault, of so amiable a nature. that it can hardly be
censured without pain. It arose from the extreme
horror, which he always felt, of shedding human
blond. Looking, however, to the situation in whi;h
they are placed, and the high purposes for whch
they hold that situation, sovereigns ought to consult,
not their feeling-, but their duties. Blind and indis-
criminate mercy '5, in its ef e4s. the worst of cruel-
ties.' aIMAn;./ itself i:nperiously commands the
punishment of these who wantonly and wickedly
violate the laws on which social order is roundest ;
and, by giving a loose to the mast violent passions
of man, sedgee him to a state of worse than savage
nature, since it has all the bad qualities of savage
*shame% yids's& any of am virtues. the brlnparch
is the guardian of the State, and the safesty of the
State is put to the hammed, when traitors are all wed
to conspire with impunity. Nor will the King, wino
tolerates treason, long remain a Ling.
The unfortunate Lewis fell a vietim to his igno-
rance of this truth. In his fall, he drew down the
greatest evils, not only upon his town country, but
also upon a considerable part of Europe. that
clemency. which he so injudiciously sbeilad to re-
bellious subjeas. cost the lives of the bravest, the
wisest, and neblest citaralkers of the time in which
they lived. viewed France with sea :Ids and Weed ;

The merchant' and principal inhabitants of
vair, Ternho,matindcinuniiefthr—rNtll,

entertained Sir John Newport on Siout day last
notwithstanding the very short notice at which
inth et
hßeuCt
entertainment was prepared. a plenteous and v.
table was furnished, with a rich desert. and a lit
supply of rare and excellent wilier. The coon
was numerous enough to crowd the long too;
the Bush ; notwithstanding which. the conveni.
of the arrangetnents afforded universal accomm
don. Several glees, as well as solos, by
fessional gentlemen, and by amateurs, exalted
enjoyment of the day, and added delight to ch
fulness and hilarity. The following, among o
toasts, were given from the Chair :
The King. weal a grand Otero. of "Cod sire the Kin;
Prince of Waieb—Llake of York, ant the Array—rt
and tire Naiy—Tfie Loud Lieuter.ant and Pi
city to Ireland—Su John Newport.
This toast was given with some introdalory
mark upon his patriotism, judiciossly and halo
applied. The .distinguished objedl of it made
acknowledgment with suitable force and sertsibi;
' It was drank with loud demonstrations of reg.
and approbation.

Squadron.--Tne Nl:Anorf of that patriotic and enlighton.
Statesman, (`trades James Fax.
The party broke up abont eleven o'clock, after a
ever.!.ng of almost unexampled cheerfulness arid con,
vial: lop, and with increased impressions of esteem
and admiration of the urbanity and talents of theb
very tespeaable guest.
On Saturday last, the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer was svaitod upon by the ComM.:tee of Me--
chants at Cork, for the purpese of submitting fo.
his cmsideration several distinct and specific seg.
gestions, some of them tending to diminish many
existing :Inconveniences to the trade of that city, and
others to enlarge as well as to secure those btancints
of commerce already carried on. Those propesi.
'inns. as they were separately stated by Mr. Beamish,
the Chairman. as the eoliedive delibeeation of the
Committee, acre discussed by Sir John Newport,
with a depth. of intelligence, a minuteness of in.
formation, and a Teal on .behalf of the °bled' pro-
posed, that excited the adreirat;on of every person
that was present. Not a few of the sulkies sug-
gested by the Committee had prev,ously 'waded
the attention of S.r John, and interested his warm-
est efSirts f,or the accomplishment of them a a pro-
per season. -
Our. present Chancellor of the Exchequer fat
minutely inveiiiigated the financial condition of the
coontry,has; examined narrowly the praffical cot-
' le:tion:of public revenues, and explored, with dili-
gent and patient inquiry, the state of our manufac-
tures and bommerce. We have reason to to assured
that his anxiety is turned to the improvement of
the first of their objeds, and not widsoat twpe of
advantage to the public; that a general and effec-
tive reform will tike place hi the secend ; and that
in the latter ha' efort will be left untried for their
advancement. Several arrangements of great be-
' ii;.:fit to the Irish merchants wtil shortly be made.
