TIIE DUKE OF YORK'S CHEESE.

This extraordinary specimen of a Cheshire
dairy, weighing, we understand, about 1601 b., and purchased
from a tenant o Earl Grosvenor's, is daily expected in London ;.
it was to be sent off from Chester as yesterday. It is splendidly
ornamented with the arms of Chester, and the heraldic bearing*
of his Royal Highness, and is packed up in a case made pur-
posely for it. The following is given as a copy of the Address
which accompanies it :
" To his Royal Highness Frederick, Duke of York and Al-
bany ; Earl of Ulster; Knight of the Most Noble Order of
the G.trter ' • Commander-in-Chief of all his Majesty's Land
Forces, &e.
Stn,—The noble, manly, and consetu'o mai, declaration,
made by your Royal Highness in the House of Peers, on the
25th day of April last, on the question-of throwing open to the.
Roman Catholics of the Unitel Kingdom, all places of trust,
power, and authority, has given that unmixed satisfaction to
the country, which might be expected from the illustrious
brother of the Monarch of these Protestant realms, and has
obtained for your Royal Highness the full confidence and gra-
tituie of the nation.

" We have beheld, Sir, certainly not without apprehension, -
the endeavours which, for the last two years, have been made,.
to sap the Protestant Constitution of England—to bring the
Government of this country into disesteem—to vilify anti
libel the Clergy of the Established Church—and even to offer
insult, through the medium of a depraved and jacohin press,
to the Sovereign- himself ! We are aware, too, that these en-
deavours of the factious have been brought about by the machi-
nations of a comparative few—of ambitious and disappointed
men; but we are also aware that the ♦oice of the great body of
the nation will, if called into action, put dOwn, by its powerful-
and irresistible energies, all all such anti-British intrigue ;• and
that we have an ample guarantee in our beloved King, and of
your Royal Highness, that the Protestant ascendancy in this
empire shall be maintained inviolate, and that no dependents
on a foreign prelate shall share with the Protestant people of
England in that supremacy belonging only to the Sovereign
who reigns over this free and united empire. -
" May it please your Royal Highness, therefore, to accept
from a small number of the loyal inhabitants of the ancient
city of Chester, the accompanying humble and inadequate tes-
timonial of their 'high admiration of your „Royal High-
ness's conduct as a Peer of the Blood Royal of England.
offered with unassumed humility, but. at the same time
with an assured hope that it will not be displeasing, as. the
native produce of a county which has at all times evinced by
the profuse expenditure of its wealth, and the sacrifice of its
blood, an uniform and unalterable attachment to the sacred-
person of the Sovereign, and an uncompromising adherence to.
those principles which seated your princely house on the impe-
rial throne of these realms." •
