lID SIDMOUTII%_Iy.T.TER TO SIR ABRAHAM

BRADLEY KING. BART.

A report was in circulation for the last two days.
thut Sir Abraham Bradley King had received a
letter hum Lord Sidmouth, on the subject of an
event of a ve.y recent nature ; unit as it was pro-
bable that much ►uisrepresentation would ensue if
the public should not be able to learn any part of
its contents hut Loy hearsay, we (says the Dublin
Correspondent) endeavoured to procure a correct
copy ot so important a document, and we now feel
the greatest pleasure in laying it bethre our readers,
verbatim, us follows : . _

" Richmond Park. OM 9.

•• NIT to cannot forbear congratulating you thorn
the complete accomplishment of his Afaj-sty's gracious intention
to cootei ..peal you rile uti,nity of a Baronet 01 the United King-
dom. It are. a 11104 fortuntee circumstance, that ut the period of
Ida Majtsty's visit to Ireland, the lity;lieliittr of Lord :%layur of
Dublin was laid by a person of known prudence and discretron,
wlso, by a happy union of moderation and firmness, was enabled,
wi hunt the surrender or compromise of any principle, to con-
ciliate the confidence and esteem of all parties. Allow me fur-
ther to express the great pleasure which I have felt in mocking
your aerive and, at tile late dinner of the sheriff's, successful en.
lit .IVattr to 1,1111114 C li.al liberal forbearance, and that true bene-
Mence, wli.ell you so constantly obsers ed and practised while in

arid blieve me to be, with sincere e.steent, tiny dear Sir, your
faithful and obedient servant,

Ou this letter the Dub/in Morning Post observes,
—" This is a very important docututnt. It omits
all notice of the new Lord Mayor and his toast, but
the approbation of laird Sidniouth is spec►fctlly
given to the late Lord Mayor, for conduct the very
opposite to that pursued by Mr. Kings'un James,
a it more especially fin• his successful endeavour at
the late dinner of the sheriffs, to promote that li..
leral turbearauce and true benevolence, which he

so constantly observed and practised while in office.'
06,erva, tender, it was at this dinner that the toast
.WIVIIS "a drank Now, us Lord Sithuouth praises the
' liberal forbearance and true benevolence' of Sir
Abraham Wadley King, it follows that there was
not, according to his Lordship, one particle (dialers'
forbearance or true benevolence in the conduct of
111 r. Kingston James—not even so much
." As the division of the twentieth part

And this is now the una ll i 11l oils opinion of every in-

dividual iu Englund, Ireland or Scotland, to whose
tars the trumpet of Fame huth blown the ` glorious
tehievenient of the new Lord Mayor of Dublin,
notwithstanding the palaver of the canting speech,
or rather speeches, with which the toast was pre-

Sir William Curlia.—lt could be little suspected
that the present Royal favourite, Sir W. Curtis, had
originally been the political dc re of J. Horne Tooke.
Such, however, it appears, was the case, and in
this manner Tooke related the occasion t—" Sir
William's hither had been a zealous friend of popu-
lar politics in the city and county, and at the period
of the great contest tar Middlesex, when Wilkes was
opposed by Lutteral, old Mr. Curtis regretted that
his business and time of life prevented him being so
active in behalf of his favourite candidate as he
wished to be. 'My son, however,' says he, 'is

just now of age; he is young and strong ; take him,
Mr. Horne, under your own direction, and make
him useful in your canvas. " The young man,"
continued Home Tooke, ".retained his acquaint-
ance with me for some years afterwards but subse-
quently, as would readily be supposed, we seldom
met. It. happened, however, tiller a very long in-
terval, while 1 Was it member of the House of Coin.
minis, that we did meet at the door of the House,
going out together into the lobby, and, what was
more extraordinary, going out on a division upon
the same side. Being side Ly side" said Tooke, "
Aimed him my hand as an old political pupil, and
told hint I was heartily glad to find that he had re-
turned to his master and to his orignal principles at
lass. ' Return !' replied Sir William archly, ' 1
never lett my principles; it is you Mr. Tooke, who
have changed.' How ans Ito understand you Sir
William?" Why, Mr. Tooke, when 1 engaged in
politics with you ow had the nufjurity pith usj by
the majority I have always stuck, and I will keep
among the majority to the last."
At the general meeting of the Commissioners
under the Paving Act, held last week, u Memorial
was presented by Mr. Alderman Booth, signed by
upwards of 80 inhabitants of tke first respectability
m Nom ich, requesting the Commissioners to take
into their serious consideration the necessity of ap-
plying to Parliament fir more extensive powers to
enable them eilectually to pave, light, watch, and
cleanse this city. In consequence of which, and on
the motion of Alderman Booth, seconded by Mr.
Edward Taylor, and supported by Mr. Piumptre
and other gentlemen, a Committee was appointed
for taking into consideration the measures necessary
to carry the above petition into effect, and to report
thereon at the next monthly meeting.

Extract of a letter dated Oarabruck, Oct. 5.:—..
" I have at length arrived' in the kingdom of Ha-
nover, but ant still one hundred miles from the
capital. In my progress to this town than the Prus-
sian frontier, I svitnessed the strongest manifestations
of loyalty and attachment to his Majesty A tri.
limphal arch has been erected on the spot where the
boundary line is drawn, and the decorations, though
composed of the most simple materials, do credit to
the taste and ingenuity of the parties who devised
them. The arch is sustained by four posts., festooned
with branches of palm, intermingled with the
greenest foliage of the forest ; and the whole is
mounted with the imperial crown, having the letters
" G It." inscribed übilerneatb, on u shield of azure
blue, Similar arches arc constructed at every village
I have tame through, and the people appear anxious
to rival each other in testifying their affection to a
Srivereign, whose name and fiimily are connected
with their fondest associations. At Glandorf, the
first village I came to after passing the frontier, I
intim' the landlord of the inn, who is also the post.
master, brushing a suit of antiquated uniform, in
which he intended to appear before his Majesty.
He said he would present his Itoy.tl Master with
wine of a hundred and twenty years old, poured out
in a gold cup, and expressed his earnest hope that
his Majesty would condescend to accept the libation.
His daughter, who attended in the room with sonic
refreshments, on aiming an English gentleman tender
a sovereign in payment, immediately snatched it from
his hand, when she understood it was stamped with
the likeness of the King. Fixing her eyes upon it with
',look of ecstatic delight,she contemplated it Circa few
moments, and then after passing it three or tiair
times to her lips, declared she would not part with
it as long as she lived. Surprised at the emotion
she betrayed, the gentleman asked if she hail never
Well the coin before ? and she replied, that this was
the first time she saw the likeness of the good Kin;
of Hanover." Befinte 1 left Munster, this morning,
1 discovered that the postboys had a desperate con-
tention for the honour of driving his Majesty's car-
riage. One of them, who was a fellow of some
humour, said that the Koenig inn P,usaen (the Kieg
of Prussia) when he passed through, did not provoke
such angry feelings among them, as they would ail
have been very well content to let any one who
pleased drive his Majesty to the d—l. You will not
be surprised to hear that the King of Prussia is no
&wreathe with the postboys, when I tell you that
by an order lately issued at Berlin, any one of them
who shall be ilium' asleep on his horse, is to be
placed on a seat, fiffnied by three pieces of wood,
brought to so sharp a point as almost to pierce
through the flesh, the unfortunate offender being
all the time compressed within a wooden frame, and
unable to relieve himself in .lity other manner than
by an effort attended with a varied sort of pain.—
punishment continues for six weeks, during
which period the wretched sufferer gets nothing but
bread and water, except on the third day, when he
is allowed a little broth t.l sustain life. As soma as
the time elapses, he is obliged to pay a fine of 12
dollars, and is then restored to his former situation,
only to undergo more aggravated inflictions, should
he again unhappily doze while on duty. From this
instance you may fin-in a tolerable estimate of the
policy that exists in the King of Prussia's dominions.

WESTMINSTER SESSIONS.

Thursday the Sessions tiu the City of Westruinive r cons-
ult uet d belore Mr. 01111111, the (Atalanta'', and several
other Magistrates.
RIOT IN WESTMINSTER.

THE KING v. SCCARTIi, ROSHOTrOM, AND OTHERS.
Mr. Adolphus stated, that the defendants, M'Carty and
five (Abets, soldiers belonging to the Fout Guards, were
tiled last Sessions at the Old Bailey for murder and ac-
quilled. 'Fiery had slicer been indicted fur the riot on the
lath of June at West iii i i 161C1', but those 0110 had prefer-
red the indictment did not mean to proceed ; lie therefore
lead to request the witnesses might he called, and on their
hot appeal itig, the prisoners would be discharged.
Mr. Ail, y, Counsel for the prosecution. ►tated that lie
received uu instructions to support the indictment for the
misitenietthour; and utter the defendants had been ar-
raigned, and pleaded not guilty, they were acquitted,
there being no evidence to lay before the Jury.
The Chairman, then addressing them, sald—" It is
better before you go from the, bar, under the particular
nature sod circumstances of your case, that your atten-
tion should be called to theinipropriely of 'icier conduct.
Your behaviour, subsequent to acquittal at the Old
would aimust lead one to suppose, that in the 00111.
011/1,0011 of )011f 011.1.11 Ce, you lead the inteution of doing
bodily mischief, for since you were acquitted, you have
lint only conslde•teel yourselves justified, hut although you
a ere tinder bail you have gone and abused the ()likens of
justice, one of a lium narrowly escaped with his life.—
You all know that yon have• boasted that you glory in
what• you have dune, wed that you have said put would
111 e rather than make any concession. This is nut ex
essing a proper iespect tor the law. You have not been
visited %sill' punishinesit, and the Court think the lenity
skean you should be taken in a proper sense. Flowerer,
you may leave been pt omitted Icy high spirit, and recollec-
tion of the battle of Waterloo, the danger 111 %Ilia you
have stood, and the consequence of being again placed in
a . Aar situation, should have impressed upon yon, re-
spect fur the civil limpid* the country. Persons alto slip-
port the dignity of the military profession, and ler
%%hose *ultimo,
.yOll Sit• placed, feel the necessity of as-
vise Mg and pioteetieg the officers of justice, and, I hope
be lute yeti nave this t ourt, you will do the same."
tel Alley srid, it was impossible nut to feel with the
Com I that the cusiduct of the officers of justice had been
most correct.
Mr. Count observed, that he knew nothing of the farts;
but the subsequent conduct of the defendants looked like
a malicious intention. _ .

Mr. ittinolds, the magistrate, said, he had occasion
to know that the soldiests, in the riot alluded to, were
*malty of violence. He was under the sieclissity of befitt-
ing for the Hasse Guards. Without their assissance the
consequences might have been more fatal. Au attack was
spittle on the officers, who w hese only doing their duty,
■nd one of the defendants had gone so • public-house
and abused the officers in the grossest instinct.
'1 he tl. fendasits were then discharged.
Jobs Ruby' ift was indicted fur assaulting, on the Oh
of June, Peter Masliii.
The prosecutor with his wife, were walking along St.
James's street, when thin defendant, without any in uvo-
caliou. snuck him a violent blow.

The defendant called thiee Nitttesets to prove Nlartin
was the aggt essor, but they all told d.fleient t.t tries.
The Jury f I the defendant guilty, and he aas sen-
tenced to INO months imprisonment in the House of Cor-
rection.

The Court was occupied during the greater part of the
day with the trial of two tutu tut a misdemeanour, d.s.
gusting in the details.

Love AND MAoNtSB.—Nliss --„ daughter of •
respectable professional gentleman, of It—, near
Grantham, had her a consideraide lime, with the appro.
hation of her family, received the addresses of tile IL v.
Mr. cl.-res nom of the same village. This gen-
deli' eta left his hieise on Friday evening last on horse-
back, but shortly after casied who
deColial) wheel tom. as was supposed by Fir Conily, for an
1:%• I I,•r not returning home at the usual
lout, ott'y ev.ciled an miltnary degree of surprise; her
aosetice was accounted for by siipposing, front their
extreme illtllll3CV, that then hail wale oil to Gretna•green,
as their intended onion had not met the enure approba-
tion of the gentlemait's iriehtis. The Avnikunlit s horse
hiving been finned turned tip in a mighbour's close nano-
rally strengthened the above supposition. [wittily was
then made at all the Public tons % here it was likely to
obtain post horses, but no in: insalloll could be oltiaineil.
The mystery was not of long continuance, Mr at hue
o clock on Sunday morning the father of they lady
was called Iron; his bed, and to his soul-sichrtiiiia sur-
prise was told that his daughter would be found dead lit
the neighbmiting plantation of Mr., F—. A candle
and !intern were immediately prociired, when the
information was imind to be too true : the lady lay as if
asleep, with her head upon her arm, which was blody,
wrapped in NI r. —'s surtoot and handkerchief. it

&free!, but the tit 1111 l :telt of the gentleman hail rejected it,
while he lay in a stair or iliseitsibilitv by her side, trot
recovery front which, it is said he made an ineffectual
attempt to cut his throat, which accounts for the lady's
arm being found bloody. lie is now at his own house.—
The affair will undergo the scrutiny of a coroner's impiest,
which will be attended by two physicians and two sur-
geons, when this melancholy and distressing affair will
meet further elucidation. As the young lady was in
the habit of cotr.pottuding 'ter lather's medicines, her
accts, 10 laudanum is easily accounted for. Tile reverend
gentleman, who was otil: curate of B—, Was, 11 seems,
originally brought op to the law, which. from consci-
entious motives, he left for the church. His ctiararter
is exemplary. 'the age of :Miss was 25. W hen
,he was removed to her fattier', lonise she was not quite
cold, appeared asleep, and as bloom ng as % hen aloe,
but in a chart time her colour fled, such she asunied the
appearance of death. By this Brea Iful A.m., the de-
ceas:al's faintly, which is large, is involved in great sorrow
and distress.

guineas a Side. The distance was 20 wiles, and it was

minutes, over a rough country. Captain S.llith Ilmik a
circuit torough Crane %Vont!, and swam across the Bail-
del-ruer, his adversary keeping the high ground in we

Captain lost the match by about a q•lartcr of a 11111 r, Ins
