TO THE GOVERNOR

Aig—When on the 14th of April I was informed by Dr.
O'Meara that be should discontinue the ixerrose or his
reactions as physician to 11w Emperor Napoleon, I hastened
to send a message to Major Gorregner, begging him to favour
me with a call, having some comtnuu.eatiossa to make to
him of ths.very highest importance.
I told this °Seer that I had intended In apprize him of
oar great regret al Dalcombr's home being deplored sup-
plying the provisions; that the journey of the principal of
that house to London could out be a reason for depriving
him of his business, since the service had always been per-
formed by his partners, Messrs. Fowler nos! Cole, and Mr.
Balcombe had never directly interfered therewith: hot that
the communication I had just received from Dr. O'Meara
was vastly more important, and that ilw Emperor could nut
rest a single slay will 1 the aid of Dr O'Meara.

The neat day, the 13111, I had the honour to write to yaw
to the sense etlect. I had hoped to have in "Hawn. in the
course even of that day; beat this is th. 24th, and I am still
without any reply Thai.. for twelve days, has the Emprror
beets deprival' of all meshes, assistance. In She onsitth of
October be was fifteen days without erring Unripe
O'Meara, at the lime you mistimed the astonishing right
of imposing upon him the obligation to issut his bul.
letins only under your dictation, without their being
Gist submi,lrsi to the Enspersw, or the original being
left in his bands. Then, however, his disorder was in its
infancy, slow it has made stamp con-iderable progress. Omni
Montholun, who lodges in the same pint of the building as
the Emperor, informs saw, that on the 18113, and today, she
24th, he was awakened at two o'clock in the mur iiiii g by the
Emperor's valet de-eh-imbre, and 'maimed at that Prie.re's
bedside from two o'clink in the morning till eve, willse,sing
the sufferings he endured, and utterly unable to alleviate
Them. Your restrictions upon Longwood, of the 10th of
April, have thus already had the 'athirst effect.

I beg, therefore, to repeat my reqvu at. that you would re-
store Dr. O'Meara to the exercise of his functions, and ilia.
continue to annoy him, and mike him feel the elf,..ets of
such ill treatment, by removing the reatrictions you, so
teary to what have Urea is force for three years, have im-
posed upon him by your letter of the 11116 April, to which
be civilise will nor eau submit, without dishonouring
himself.

si.,ort, Sir, whatever reasons you may be able to allege,
reflect upon the ciiiii.egnenices of coot,uuiuß things in their
preAfilli state, mud of depriving the Emperor of the physician
of his choice, without having sub... Elated another, con-
formable to my letter of the 13th of April. If you still per-
sist in this lose of conduct, this arbitrary act will be duly
appicciated by Europe, by your uwu country, and evcu by
your Misiottrs..
. . .

I have the honour to he. &e.

The wheat harvest is now pretty generally com-
menced in this neighbourhood ; very tine crops
have helm cat down last week in the Liberties;
I front what we have seen, the grain is remark-
ably good.—(Limerick I hrouirie.)
Notwithstanding the great di-might of the season,
whirls this country has experienred perhaps more
than any other, the crops have a very good appear-
ance throughout. They are, its general, thin, hot
the grain is excellent. in this ileighbotithood, the
hostile-1r of reaping allil WOO ing has made consider-
able advances. A great quantity of barley is in
stack, and most of the hay has been cut. The wheat
crop it ripenicg very first. Potatoes are ichencelant
and of good quality. We are watilied to Cool that,
in other parts of the kingdom, the harvest is altoge-
ther rola (herring deseriptiom--(lrtxforti Herald.)
Reaping has commenced generally at Orange-
field. Several lie-Ids of wheat have liven rut clown

and near Carrickfergus, a field of oats, %%Inch,
having failed last year, had been plougheel iii, was
