If this be the case, let us hear no more of the duties a child
owes its parent, or that i parent owes its child. All these
obligations are relative, and depend upon the mutual conduct
of the pal ties. Nature has no link to bind the one or soften
the other, if circumstances have denied the union of the
affections. if ambition would insist upon compliances that
tyrannize over the mind, and presume upon laying down
law, to which neither the feelings or the understanding can
become assenting parties—there is no rule in morals—no
text that authorises such conduct—and we will he content
to share the odium such doctrines must necessarily incur if
we are wrong. But if this cannot be done, then let the
disgrace lie with those who would impugn the tenderest ties
that connect the social compact, as much by their moral
beauty as their political necessity, and ‘rithout which this
world would become a wilderness, and this nature of ours
the disgrace and deformity of otherwise a most perfect
systetn.

We do not mean to defend the violence and disorder of
ungovernable passions; hut those who pretend to state these
as the grounds of all that has ()cern ied, and who indulge in
florid contrasts, to depreciate the character of the child at
the expel ce of an adulatory colouring of the character of
the parrmt, forget all that is upon record, and wQuid hare
others do the same.

There are either strong feelings somewhere, or &Fe "Iron.;
conduct. The excitement mtist have been power fill indeed
that could have induced a child to quit the protection of a
father; and it is the first time we ever kne'.v a mild, di;ni-
fied, and affectionate admonition to produce so deplorable an
effect. There is, indeed, but one mode of reasoning upon it.
If the PZINCE WaS urbane, as described, the conduct of the
PRINCESS CHARLOTTE is inexcusable; and 'for it is useless
to deny the fact) the people have nothing to lock to, from
.her succession, but Rule ',without wi,..lonz. a ra domi,tion• with-
out dignity. We have often heard that the worse Jacob:us
reside in the vicinity of Courts---that the try,st dAn2ernus
enemy to royalty is royalty itself. We conicst: %ye fear !hole
is too much truth in the obsetvation—tite " divinity that
doth edge a king" no kngec draws the curtain between the
reverence that protects the office, and the accous;table in-
firmities of the individual. Tithes of peace are times of ex..
anrination ; we could say much on this Part of cur topic, but

A .% narned Barlow, was called to support the proseention,
who depn.cd, that he had been applied to hv the defendant, with
w..om he was very intimate, who stated that Copeland wa• indebted

in his claim 10 the pretend( d debt, together with several others,
lie could not recollect what questions were pia to i, sn, or what
answers he made, but, Pit the hook being tendered to !aim to take
the oath, he watched his opportunity, andeontriv: d to evade it.
Upon this ttretembed proof of debt, the defendant got him appointed
one of the A tsiinees, atul he continned to art as such till, at last,
some scruples of eonscienco arising, he told the defendant he :ins-
pected he was acting wrong. The defendant, however, owed
him to the contrary, and said, as he was one ct the ,liizness, Ito
must continue to act. He did accortlin‘z'y continue to act some
time longer. till, in consequence of some .:o:nomnication he had
with Mr. H. Holloway, an attorney, he was induced to become
witness against the present defendant.
Lot ELLENBOROVGH here interfered, and asked the Attorney.
General if it were possible to go to the Jury in a (piestiGn of so
nitteh importance to a defendant, as this was, upon evidence so in-
famous in its nature as what this witness had given All might, by
possibility, he true, but would the Jury give credit to the testi-
mony of a person who had thus trifled with the sacred obligation of
an oath, when that testimony was unsupported by any other.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL declined to proceed, and the Jury alk
quitted the defendant.

death, nod thin, together with other pious women, bought spices and
hints in order to preserve his body. Jesus most signally rewarded
her kindness ; for she was the very first pers -n to whom he manifested
hims If after his ftesorrecvilo, and was by bias directed to convey the
udinga of it to his Apostles ! Some have erroneously conciuded her t,
he the same female as we find mentioned by Dike (7-37, Ste.) but
DI. Lardner has satisfactorily disproved this notion, and, at the tante

PRINCESS CHARLOTTE OF WALES.

It is a favourite expression w'.th the Ministerial Journals
that we have fallen on awful tirneq, a truism which every day
ag2,ravates the condition of the people, and leaves us neither
room for neutrality nor preference, without danger to our-
selves and injustice to the country.
Under such circumstances as these; the duty which de-
volves upon a periodical writer is not of the most grateful
nature; for, however moderately inciined, and whatever his
principles be, he is acted upon as other individuals, and, un-
able to separate the consequences from his feel:rigs, enters
at full into the system and becomes an unwilling party to
the defence and recrimination that at this moment di;graces
the moral character of society. But despising the names
already affixed by those who seem to h tve no sense of shame,
to whom honour and dishonour are alike indifferent—who
N.a 1 e in their own stations are decorum which they under-
value in every other, we shall fearlessly declare our opi-
nion, careless whom we offend, so as we advance the ends of
moral justice, and a.Aaken the c3untry to a knowledge of
the imminent danger that impends over its dearest interests
at this solemn crisis. ,

The line of conduct indc'ed pursued by the Ministerial
Papers, requires an open and distinct ap:wal of the abhor-
rence we entertain of the sentiments propagated by each ;
for we wi►l maintain, that if, according to the received no•
Lion, the PRINCESS CIIATLOTTE is of age, and under the
protection of the law, they have each of them been guilty of
the grossest libe!s on that august personage, and that unless
they are prosecuted, the law will be perverted, to shelter the
most atrocious and unwarrantable calumnies against their

future Sovereign.
This is the more inexcusable, as the tone with which they
sneak has the air and authority of official command—unless,
indeed, it were so, would they dare to pronounce their filthy
)—Are there no family disagreements without the factious
interference of interested individuals ?—The highest ranks
11.1ve the same passions--the same sense of rigbt.and wrongs
its the lowest. Quarrels in either sphere have an equal ten-
dency to alienate and incense, to destroy confidence, to
weaken dependence, to uproot all the charities of life, and
to withdraw sacriligeously the veil that conceals the deformi-
ties of the passions, the intemperance of our convivial Jump,
and the luxurious debaucheries of our stimulated wetiles:

Dutch Papers Of Wednesday's date arrivellop Friday night.,
An article, dated Leyden, the 16th, states, upon the atitho-
tity of accounts from Copenbagen4 that the. etahnsiasm of
the Norwegians is at the highest pitch, and that an army of
66,6000 volUnteers have marched to the frontier, the. g' ewer
part of which Prince Christian has, sent biek as unnecessary.
The enthusiasm of Sweden is, also great ; 15,000 men are
under General Essen upon the frontiers, but so late as the.
29th of April no hostilities bad taken place. Sweden is to
fit out seven ships of the line and several frigates, as well as.
a considerablearmy, against Norway. The Crown Prince is

DILL Ft 01: THE REPEAL OF THE FIFTH OF.ELIZA BETH.
Mr. Serjeant Onslow's Bill for repealing the fifth of Eliza-
beth, which was read a second time more than a week ago,.
will go to a COMMittee early in the ensuing week. This
measure would have been of no moment at ail. but for the
foolish efforts which have, been made to enforce and to ex-
tend the. provisions of fhe Statnte by indiViduals, who but
ill understood the general interests of trade, or who preferred:
:I selfish andmomentary advantage to those perrhanent bene-
fits which generally result from a liberal add enlightened
policy-
. It was stated in the llotisc, that some hundreds of thou-
sands of persons had petitioned againSt the repeal of the Act.
q the truth of this assertion we entertain no doubt. It, is:
probable that those with whom these petitions originate,
think they do but protect. their rights, in exerting them-
seives to prevent the proposed alteration in the law. It
is very natural for mon who have been apprenticed to
the trades which they exercise, to feel aggrieved at the pro-
pos,c!d, repeal of the Act of Eli;tltheth. A .man, Wlio, has la.;
boitred, for another for seven years, must at all times feel it
hard. that he should derive little or tin.betiefit from his long
sen'ttitoe, tut more especially must he think he has a right
to coiiiplOin in times of great distress, like these we have

erected, from which there will be a very tine view of the parade,
eanal,&e. on which latter, illuminatioi s. fireworks, military rockets,
and a variety of splendid devices will be exhibited. Thus will tbrtn
a very Veaotiful retreat from the sumptuousness of the state apart-

1)E BERENGER.
Mr. Witt'rnutAri wished to call the attention of the House to a
subject which had excited a considerable sensation. He alluded to
the arrest and committal to Newgate of a perFon named De Be-
tenger, who was implicated with certain individuals now under in-
dictment for a conspiracy, at the instigation of a self-constituted
Committee, called that of the Stock Exchange. But while the
other individuals were admitted to hail, De Berenger was kept in
custody under the Alien Act, for no other apparent reason Orin
because he was a foreigner by birth. He had received a petition
from this person, complaining of the grievances under which lie
laboured ; and as it appeared perfectly respectful, lie should move
that it he brought up and read.
The Motion being agreed
.to, the Petition was read. It stated
his arrest at Leith, and committal to confinement on the felons side.
ot New led tei nestled the charge of dirloyalty, acd played to be ad-

The peace is not signed, as we said yesterday, but we have
every re:son to believe that it is very far.advanced. The bases of it
are laid, and even the principal dispositions of the treaty seem to
be no longer a m)stery. They are all honourable to France. A
peace of this kind can alone be solid, and will not fail to add to the
gratitude we owe to the Allied sovereigns. We do not fear to ti.ty,
that the peace so long expected, and the circumstances which have
accompanied the negociatioas, will give to our august Mouarcu

AMERICA.
In America the late events. Of Europe have already beguis
to operate a change. The Non-importation Act seems to
have been given up by Matliion; and the. manufactures of
England are about to be re-admitted into the United -States.
We are glad to find that among the first importations, they are
likely to lidie an abundant supply of bayonets. Twelve
thousand of The conquerors of Spain are under oilers to pro-
ceed to America: We trust the chasiisement prepared for
the Yankies, on this occasion, will deter them from again'
4Vantinfly provokinc, hostilities.
A contemptible cfaction at honie would tell us, that as the
causes of the war with America are removed, the war should
tcrmina.e. A pretty patriotic doctrine this. The war writ
caused by devotedness to Buonaparte, and because he is gone.
we are net to call America to account for her unprincipled
hostility ! Naw we are. able to argue the question with ef-
fect, we are to drop the subject, or reserve the discussion of
it till some future period when our Rands may be again full,
and when America, finm, bCi>hg sufiertd, this time to escape
, with impunity, may think it a safe experiment to begin ano-
ther pg'ensirc wet. Sound policy this! But we cannot say
we admire it so Much as to wish to see it acted upon by our
Government. We wish the question at issue to be finally
I set at rest now, and so put, at rest that America, from her
present humiliation, may, for the time to come, cherish a
salutary dread of what may be the conserpence of a war with,
Great Britain.
London, England, 1814-05-22

CORN LAWS.

In the Debates on the Corn Laws, there has been more flat
positive contradiction than we ale accustomed to meet with
on domestic subjects. On the one hand. it is contended, tir2i
to encourage the importation of grain, is to oppose the pro-
gtess of British agriculture, and to make us dependant on
foreign countries for a supply of that necessary • article.
To encourage exportation, We are told, is to give a bounty
on production, and hence it is inferred, that we shall never
have an abundant supply. of Corn in the country, till every
po:sible facility is given to rending it out.
Those wh6 ohject to the proposed alteration in the Corn
Laws, assert, in oppositiAl to this • Hoe, that to permit
the hnportation of grain, is the true policy of England. they
contend, that the price at which the importation of foreign
Corn is allowed, will be the lowest we shall kndv, and if BO
or loos. per quarter be fixed upon, as proposed by their
opponents for the importation price, 80 or 100 s. will be the
ininitnum of Wheat in England.
The question is as inoicate as important, and it is one .
which ought not to he disposed of in haste. to depend ou
foreign countries for a supply of Coro, is certainly that which
is not to be desired; but for ought we know, even this woUld
be preferable to framing a law which, under piesent dr.'
cUmstances, should give the Corn-grower what is called a
.protetting price. In speaking on this subject, many persons
have argued as if, whatever else might be :educed, tents were
.never to fall. We.tvill tell the great land-holders, who are so
laudably anxious to protect the Corn-growers, how they may
effect their
,object; even though the Legislature refuse to
,prohibit the importation of grain. Let these Gentlemen
lower their rents. This will enable the English Corn.grower
to.enter into competition with the Foreign grower. But we
fedr this is a measure they are not likely to adept of them.
selves. The free importation of grain for a few years, would
be likely to dispose them to doso More than'any thing else.
We are told, to import wain would cause lands, now ap.
proprfated td Corn, to. be turned into pasture land. IVe
will admit this might follow, and we apprehend the resulf
would be a t'eduction in the price of meat. If that bound,
less encouragement were given Lb agriculture, which some
persons stand lip for, it is be feared Corn would be grown
on lands riot fit to receive it; and the losses thus occasioned
would be dearly paid for by the public ; and, after all, it is
assented by many intcllltirrut pntlemen, this country could
• n,::t for an' length of time grow a sufficient quantity of Corti

COVENT-GARD EN THEATRE.

The only event of importance in the Theatrics! world we have
to notice this week is the recoils of Mr. lit- mri.g. He, on Wee.
,nesday, acted the part of Coriolaisits, and last night he came forward
an " Ilaknkt." He was welcomed on froth nights with the most
enthusiastic demonstrations of jay. He appears in excellent
health, and we never saw him more successfully exert himself.

THE DRAMA.

So much bas been written and so well upon an art that
tnust always affect the " gaiety of nations," that we regret
certain circumstances which we cannot controul, but which
limited this part of our arrangement to merely occasional no-
tice. And though the termination of the season will prevent
any serious endeavour at present, we hope, ere the opening
of the Winter Theatres, to have it in our power to contribute
to this essential part of a weekly miscellany.
The influence indeed which the Theatre has always pos-
sessed over the manners and habits of a people, induced
the nations of antiquity to incorporate the amusement with
their more solemn festivals, and to place the stage in the
bands of the respective governments, as essentially con-
tributing to the developement of a proper taste, and as
an incentive to public virtue. These representations, chiefly
of an heroic character, were speedily enlivened by the fami-
liar wit and satire .of Aristophanes—the latter of whom,
through Plautus and Terence, delighted the mistress of the
ancient world---it remained however for England to pr3duce
in Shakspeaie the strength and majesty of the one, with
the rival humour and terseness of the other---and to
exhibit nature under her more awful as well as pleasing
forms for the wonder and admiration of succeeding ages.

To have, therefore, in any shape neglected this department
with a Kemble, a Young, and a Kean to have asserted our
illustrations, is a reproach which we shall endeavour to re-
lieve ourselves from as soon as the opening of the Winter
Theatres will allow us to make the amende iionorable to that
genius and those talents that have been materially formed to
enlighten and amuse the rational and intelligent part of man-
kind.

ADMIRALTY•OITICE, JULY 5, 1814.

Vice-Admiral Lord Exmouth has transmitted to John Wilson Cro-
ker, Esq. a letter from Captain Grant, °fins Majesty's. ship Armada,
dated oil Savona, the 25th of April, stating his arrival cff that place
Oil the :'3(l, with his MaJety's ships Armada and Curacoa, and
twelve Sicilian gun-boats, tbr the purpose of co-operating with a
corps of British and Sicilian troops, under the. orders of Colonel
Rocca' in the reduction of the fortress.
The French Commandant having. on the 24th, refused to sur-
render on being summoned, a cannonade was commenced from the
gun-boats, and a battery, and continued for an hour, when a
Mai; of truce was hoisted, and the fortress surrendered by capitula-
tion.

The garrison marched out with the honours of war, and were to
proceed to Fiance by land. ,
One hundred and ten pieces of artillery were found in the place.
