THE SUN.

SOLBIII QUIS DICEIIE FAISUM AUDEAT

LONDON,
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER g, 1824.

`We have received the Paris Papers of Monday
and the Eloile of Tuesday, and have given co-
pious extracts from them in our preceding

columns.

The Moniteur contains a Proclama

lion by Sir FREDERICK ADAM, the Lord lligh
Commissioner of the lonian Islands, announcing,
that he has been officially informed of the ap-

pearance of the plague in Albania, and therefore
ordering the enforcement of the regulations for
prohibiting
communications with the infected
countries.s
The Constitalionnel and the Journal
des Debuts have articles from Zante and Corfu, of
r
the 2d and sth ult.again confirming, for the bun-
dredth time, all the alleged successes of the Greeks,
both by sea and land. If the news, therefore,
be true to its full extent, the Ottoman forces
have every where been signally defeated, and the
power of the Porte is completely paralyzed and
crippled for the present campaign.

The following document has been published
this day by a Morning Paper. We cannot, of
course, answer for its authenticity. Our Readers,
however, are aware that we have uniformly sus.
pected France of entertaining sinister designs
against South America, and that even her ap-
pointment of Consuls to some of the new Re-
publics, in seeming imitation of the policy of
England, was so far from removing our doubts
that we regarded these Commissioners as poli-
tical agents, sent out for the purpose of sowing
dissentious amongst the South Americans, and of
secretly intriguing for the subversion of their in-
dependence. We are therefore not indisposed
to receive as genuine a document which appears
so fully to realize our own anticipations, more
especially as the authenticity of another diploma.
tic paper, nearly similar to the present, which
was published some time since by the same Eng-
lish Journal, has not been denied by the. Etoile.

"SECRET INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN BY THE DUKE
DE RAUZAN TO COL. GALABERT AT PARIS.

Wand, it has been decided that the conduct of this delicate

details, as well as the whole (I'e:tumble ) shall be confided to

jesty, Ferdinand VII., and the confidence he has condescended

us to place in your hands the interest of France and Spain.
You are to repair immediately to Madridt to obtain definitively

A late letter from Rome says....“ We have at
length, thank God-1 a prospect of the diminution
of crime in the Papal dominions. A few days
ago, Onorato Orsini, one of the most cruel of the
banditti which haunt the highways, was killed by
three of his associates, who appeared with his
head in their hands before the Authorities, to
supplicate forgiveness for their own crimes. On
the gth ult. that celebrated robber, Gaetano
Mauriti was shot, and his head afterward ex.
posed at Rocca•gorga, as a warning to his compa-
nions. Another band is so surrounded on all
sides, that it is impossible they should escape.—
The following just act of retaliation it related of
the Pore :—As his Holiness was coming out
from visiting the prisons of Rome, a grenadier,
who was one of the guardq, stepped up to the
Pontiff, and handed him one of the ammunition
loaves that were dealt out to the soldiers, humbly
soliciting his Holiness to notice the very had
quality of the bread. The Sovereign Pontiff ac-
cordingly had the bread examined, and finding
the thing to be as described by the greuadier, a
line of 1,40 crowns was levied upon the con-
tractor, which was immediately paid, and the
money distributed amongst the soldiers."

ETRE PUBLIC LEDGER.]

We have received the Paris Papers of Mon-
day, together with the Elate and Pilate of
Tuesday. The Pilate—one of the Papers whose
uptgirt.of the Ministry has been secured by the
goldewarguments of the Treasury—contains an
article of which the drift is to hold up Villele us
the good Genius Of France in her financial ope.

rations ; though its superficial meaning is to
apprize the public, that the Project for the con.
version of the Rentes to be brought out again,
but under a less obnoxious form, than the
one which was rejected last Session. To
the new Project the improvement of the Rentes
is ascribed by this political Parasite ; and
this awkward attempt to compliment the Finance
Minister at the expence of the real author of the
confidence which now prevails in France, will, no
doubt, increase the velocity of the fall which the
power and reputation of the former have evinced
for some time. In the mean time the language
and deportment of the King have an increased
tendency, from day to day, to augment the dis-
like in which his present Ministry are almost
universally held. It has been their policy to
make the Sovereign the tool of their passions,
and to render his name and authority wholly sub-
servient to their ambition. The many and
severe afflictions of the late. Monarch assisted
them in their scheme ; but the present King
has not the least inclination to encourage it, and
he wisely receives the homage of all his subjects,
without any distinction of party. His Court is
also the most brilliant at this moment of any in
Europe, if the spectacle of the leading men of all
parties vieing who should give the most unequi-,
vocal proofs of their attachment to his person,
can add to the lustre of royalty ; and from the
same cause he is, perhaps, the most powerful Mo.
'larch at this moment upon earth. If the pretended
Guardians of the Tranquillity of Europe were to
take umbrage at the conciliatory measures of the
French Monarch, they would soon learn that these
very measures would enable him to treat, with-
out the least risk, their remonstrances with de-
rision. France: wanted only a Government, like
the present, to resume her proper situation ; and,
instead of seeing her interests and honour sacri.
(iced to the arrogant pretensions of the Holy
Alliance, she may now take her revenge, and dic.
tate in her turn to that imperious disorganising
League. Such is the happy influence which a
system of popular rule has ou the condition of
nations ; and France is now a proof In point, that
it is the interest of Kings, as much as their duty,
to make the welfare of their subjects the end of
all their exertions.

AN INVITATION.

rtither day as my wife took a walk, on her way,
She told me, she met an old friend,
But whether by chance or appointment, do'nt say,
Or how the affair's like to end ;

For she ask'd him to dinner, an impudent Jade,
And to blind me made out some odd story,
That he could not then grant the request she had made,
Though t'would fill him with greatness and glory.

Now I think this affair, Sir, would pose a Divine.
So I summon'd a friend for advice,
And to-morrow at five he'll be with me to *line,
So pray come and partake of a slice.

For if k be true that increasing of nobs
Will increase the small stock of our knowledge,
I beg you'll relieve all my sighs and my sobs,
By coming to taste of my porridge.

EPITAPHS OF BEM...RINGERS.

Epitaph of WILLIAM DOWLOII. Died in 1791, aged 68
years. Buried in Burton-upon-Trent Church-yard, Stafford-
shire—(a famous town for good old ringer's ale).
Here lies an Old Ringer beneath this cold clay,
'Who rang many peals, both serious and gay ;
Through Grand Sires and Tripples with case he could range.
Till Death call'd the Bob, and brought round his last change.

Epitaph of Join; COLLIER and MARY his wife. Both died
in 17813, aged 75 years, and were buried in Rochdale Church-
yard, Lancashire.—lle was best known by the name of Tin-►
Bobbin, and wrote the Original Lancaihire Dialect.
Here lies John, and with him Mary,
Cheek by joul, and never vary :
No wonder that they so agree—
John wants no punch, and Mull no tea.

Epitaph of THOMAS Ews, an old change ringer. Died
in 1796, aged 08 years. Buried in Farnham Church-yard.
Surrey—(a famous town, for good hops to infuse into old
ringers' ale).
Skill'd in the mystery of the pleasing peal,
'Which few can know, and fewer still reveal—
Whether with little bells, or bells sublime,
To split a moment to the truth of time ;
Time often truly heat, at length o'ereatne—
• • Yet still this tribute long preserve his name.

PEDESTRIANISM.
Mr. G. West completed his match at ten o'clock on Saturday
night, to travel on foot one hundred and sixty miles in two days,
between Horsham and Redborough, ten miles. Ile performed
ninety miles the first day in twenty-One hours, and rested the
other three. On the second day he started fresh, and won cle-
verly by a quarter of an hour.
Ilulme, the pedestrian, was matched to do the ten miles in an
hour. He performed the first five miles in twenty-nine mi-
nutes, but he was beat in the ninth mile by heat, and resigned.
It was for ten sovereigns.

MAMIE AT CIIESS.---We have not yet heard any of the best
informed chess-players speak with any certainty as to the pro-
bable issue of either of the games in progress. All that we
can gather on the subject is, that the Edinburgh side of the
question is rather more bright than it was a month or two
since. It is, as hitherto appears, a most equal match, and
one of the games is very likely to be drawn, so that the
match may not he concluded for a long period of time to come.

HUNTING.

The King's stag-hounds have lately been hunting in the
New Forest, and have had some capital runs. On Monday a
stag was sent to London, which afforded a chace of one hour
and 40 minutes, without a check. It is said that 40 are to be
hunted down, and sent to the Royal lair near Windsor. The
red deer in the Forest are supposed to be a French breed,
brought over by William the Conqueror, and are remarkable
for their speed.

CANTERBURY, SEPT. 0.

The present fine Weather has effected a won-
derful improvement in the hops in this and adjacent places.
There is every appearance of a most abundant crop and excel-
lent quality. The harvest is accounted more favourable than
has been remembered for many years; the wheat is now nearly
all carried. The barley and wheat fields are in a most flourish-
ing state, and agriculture seems again to be lifting its head
from the ground.
A society, which of late years had dwindled into nothing-
ness, has again risen to its former flourishing state in this city.
It is styled ," The Philosophical Society,' an institution at
once an ornament and benefit to society ; and it is surprising
that there is not one at least in every country town. The rules
observed there are, the meeting to be held weekly (Tuesday),
and alternately a debate and lecture; ladies admitted on the
lecture evenings only. We have heard several animated dis-
courses upon Botany, Astronomy, Electricity, &c. ; the more
wonderful when we consider that the members are principally
' young men, sons of the most respectable citizens of the place.
A debate ich excited considerable interest took place a short
time since, which occupied the attention of the members during
three successive nights, the subject was, " Which is the greater •
pleasure, Hope or Possession 9" After much able discussion,
(contrary to general Opinion most having become converts), it
was decided in favour of" hope" by a large majority!!!

PLACES OF FASHIONABLE RESORT.

BRIGHTON, SEPT. s.—Fashionable arrivals generally, in-
land as well as by water, continue to increase with us. The
Earl of Stair arrived at the Royal York Hotel on Friday, where
his Lordship yet remains. Lady Ashburton and Lord Uran-
stoun increased the haul ton guests at the above distinguished
Tavern,by alighting and taking possession of apartments there
this morning. Sir Sackville Browne and a party were there
yesterday, but they returned to Worthing in the evening. The
Earl of Llandaff is prolonging his stay at the Marine Hotel.—
Mr. R. and Miss Marsham have left us for Norfolk; Major
and Mrs. Porden, for Eastbourne; and Mrs. Dalrymple, and
Mr. and Mrs. Moore, for Ramsgate.
CIIELTEIRIAM. SEPT. b.—lt may with truth be asserted,
that a celebrated and much-frequented Watering Place furnishes
an excellent picture of the world we live it. To-day, numbers
of individuals come, as it were, new born to the scene ; mingle
in the diversified pleasures and customs of the place, and de-
part, to grace with their presence, another circle remote from
that they had left. To-morrow their place is filled by new ar.
rivals of personages, who figure away their hour on the guy
stage of fashion, and follow the track of their predecessors.
Since our last communication, such has been the case here, yet
the place is always full ; lodgings are in great request.

LINEN TRADE.

The want of bleach-greens in the South of Ire-
land is much complained of by the London merchants, who
purchase many thousand pieces which are shipped to' Loudon,
and then sent off to Scotland, for bleaching.
On Tuesday last, pursuant to appointment by P.,BEstimas,
Esq. of the Linen Board, a Meeting was held in the Court-
house, Newcastle, which was attended by the Ladies and
Gentlemen of the town and vicinity, together with the
Weavers and other persons taterested in the Linen Trade.—
Mr. Besnard addressed the Meeting in a most don: and im-
pressive manner, and earnestly recommended the establishment
of a Linen Market, to be held wezkly ; he stated, in consequence
of the poverty of the weavers, that a loan should be procured to
enable them to purchase thread, &c. lie said that the town and."
neighbourhood of Newcastlebeing so extremely populous, the in-
habitants would be greatly benefited by adopting the system re.
commended by the Board. In part of the North of Ireland, there
were upwards.of 700 people tothe square mile, all industrious and
comfortable, while in part of the County Clare, where the inanu-
facture of flax is not attended to, although there are not more
than 200 people to the square mile, they are nearly all paupers.
Mr. Bernard, accompanied by a Dutch boy, proceeded to 'a
field of flax belonging to Mr. Furlong, where he explained to a
concourse of people the method of preparing flax according to
the Dutch system.—(Limerick Observer.
As we understand the whole system of the Dutch method of
rippling, steeping, and saving flax is now carrying on at Caber,
on a large scale, and under the superindentience of a Dutch
farmer, it is hoped that all persons who feel interested iu the
welfare of their country, and are therefore desirous of dissemi-
nating throughout the country a thorough practical knowledge
of so valuable an improvement, will anxiously avail themselves
of the opportunity now afforded them of seeing the whole pro-
cess performed in the highest perfection.—( Clonmel Herald.)

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

LANCASTER, SEPT. 4.
(11,fiire Mr. Jeatiee BAT LET.)
*Jame: Gallagher and Hugh O'Neill were put to the bar on
an indictment cltarging them with having assaulted Mr. Thomas
'Finlay on the highway, and with havingtaken from his person
a gold watch, a purse, two sovereigns, and various other articles,

Mr. CLAR xE conducted the case for the prosecution. After
stating the circumstances of the robbery he called the following
witnesses :

deavoured to prevent his seizing my bridle by striking at him ;
I struck also at the other man. My horse stopped short and
turned round. Almost the next minute I found myself on the
ground with the bigger man (Gallagher) upon me. That man
knelt upon me, grasped me tight by the neckcloth. and dashed
my head against the ground ; I resisted hint as well as I could
with my right hand; my left-hand was engaged in holding
him. During the struggle I had with Gallagher., the other man
kicked me with great force on the head and face. Finding that
they were too much for me, I called out for mercy. They beat
me, notwithstanding, particularly O'Neill. I bled very much,.
and thinking myself in great danger I called out " murder."—
Gallagher then grasped my throat very tightly to prevent me
from repeating the cry. At that time I had hold of him by the
waistcoat. They then proceeded to rifle my pockets. They tore
my fob open, and then tore or cut away my pockets, watch, fob.
and all. Illy watch was a gold watch ; there was a gold key and
a ring attached to it by a blue ribband. I had also a purse
in my pocket, a set of ivory tablets, a penknife, a silver pencil
case, and u small comb. There were in my purse two or three
sovereigns and u few altilltngs in silver. Aftet they had taken
these articles from me, one of them said to the other, " Now,

NAVAL EXCURSION.

The Duke of DucxmlatAst, accompanied by General Sir
GEORGE NuGENT, and a numerous, suite, is at present en-
joying an equate excursion among the Western Islands. Dur-
ing his cruise off Skye, the Success cutter, Captain Thomson,
came in sight, and gave chase to his Grace's yacht for several
hours. On coining up the Noble Duke apologised to Captain
Thomson for having given one of his Majesty's vessels so long
a run, mid was answered by a salute of 19 guns from the cutter.
His Grace then requested Captain Thomson to attend him dur.
ing his excursion, having had permission from Admiral Beres.
ford to select any of his Majesty's cruisers on the station for
that purpose. They have already visited many of the most in.
teresting points on that coast, including Dunvegun Castle, the
seat of Macleod, the Chief of that name, on which occasion his
Grace gave a splendid Ball onboard his yacht.

be touched. And this is not the case in one in-
stance only, but in two : the wool dealers being
as averse to the experiment to be .made upon
their interests, as the silk-manufacturers to that
by which their existence is put to thehazard.—
Notwithstanding the debate of last night,
we scarcely think that the Chancellor of
the Exchequer will persevere in his new
propositions. Why has he not gone on un-
burdening us of our heavy taxes? Acknowledging
as he does that we need further relief, and pro-
fessing his readiness to administer it, he could
have found no difticulty.in his course, had he not
created one himself by offering a confused, puny,
insufficient measure, when solid, substantial, and
intelligible ones, were within reach. He is like
a man who attempts to finesse with a small card,
when he has a sure winner i❑ his hand. He should
have played off the window-tax at once, and the
game would have been his own. This tricky
fantastic mode of proceeding looks monstrously
like playing_ booty with the enemy, and wishing
to deceive his friends, the people.

[NEW Times.]
A successful effort was made yesterday to de-
press our Funds ; but continued but for a short
time. It was reported that a material fall had
taken place in the French.Rentes on Saturday,
which account was received by the Expresses
from Paris. Consols, which opened at 94k, sud-
denly fell
_to 93:1. The price of the Rentes
soon became known to be 102 f. 10 c., exclusive
of the Dividend, and which, with the Divi-
dend, would be 104 f. 60 c.,..making an alteration
of wot quite one per cent. from the previous prices.
Our Funds gradually recovered, and at the
close of business Consols were 941 for the Ac-
count. A considerable fall has taken place in
Spanish Bonds, from two causes which became
known yesterday. The first is the intelligence,
that the Royal Bonds of Guebhard's Loan have
been purchased extensively in Paris at the price
they bear in the authorised list, viz. 632.—
The other more immediate cause is a con-
fident belief that the ensuing Dividend will
not be paid on the Loan of 1821 ;- the Con-
tractors, it is stated, upon application being
made to ascertain the fact, having declared that
there were no funds in their hands for the pur-
pose. The prices of. the Old Bonds (1821) fell
to 20, and closed at 202; those of the last issue
from 18 to 16i. The South American Securities
left off rather lower, in consequence of the in-
telligence from that quarter. Colombian Bonds,
674- to 8; Chilean, 802 ; Mexican Scrip, 61.

'ing Spanish America under the dominion of the
mother country. There is something ludicrous in
the complaint. with which the article to which
we allude commences : " The Powers," it
seems, " hinder the King of Spain from being
also King of the Indies." Our private letter
from Madrid sufficiently shows whatcondition
the King Of Spain is in, and how far he is capa-
ble of making himself King of a cabbage gar-
den-4y his single power. We verily believe
he might be safely defied by the ci-devant Re-
public of St. Marino, if it existed at the present
day. Never was any country or Government in
a wore abandoned and hopeless state of disor-
ganization and poverty. An attempt appears to
in process for raising revenue by a tax on in-
come. Its probable success may be judged, from
the sapient exemption of all ecclesiastical
property_the very property, of all others, at all
capable of contributing. Another expedient
adopted by the Government is usurping a mono-
poly in the trade of salt-fish. 'low far the scru-
ples of " the faithful," by their consumption of
fish on maigre days, may render this productive,
we will not determine ; but a Government be-
coming a monopolizing trader—or indeed a trader
at alt—does an act of equally besotted despotism
and ignorance, considering the state of knowledge,
and the general, power of reason in the preSent
age. The Madrid ,Gazette, however, thinks that
the Powers are not only unkind to Ferdinand, but
do injury to themselves, by not allowing him " to
be King also of the Indies"—and the principal
ground of this assertion is nota little paradoxical,
viz. that unless Mexico and Peru are again placed
under the paternal dominion of Ferdinand, there
can be no trade for the European Powers, and
no. precious metals from the American mines.—
Most likely the mines were better worked before
the revolution, or rather revolutions—but cer-
tainly with little benefit to the Ilispano-
Americans—who now appear inclined to work
them more immediately on their own --ac-
count. The question is, whether the French, in
their loving kindness for the Americans and for
the Powers of Europe, will allow of this. It
would be nothing surprising that by and by some
pretext were found by the French Cabinet to
send out an armament--not for invasion—no,
God forbid—but for purposes of protection and
peace—and that finally the Mexican mines were
worked by French capital and machinery, to the
disappointment of those Gentlemen in this coun-
try, who have been and are calculating a harvest
of golden speculation in the new state of Mexico.

BELZONI.

We understand that the Egyptian Tomb will
be re-opened in London in the ensuing spring, Mrs. BELZONI
having hired the very extensive premises in Leicester-square,
which were formerly occupied by Mr. Strohling, the painter.
The tomb will consist of three chambers, the last of which will
represent the grand apartment where the celebrated Arragonite
Soros was discovered by Mr. Belzoni ; and it is not improbable
that this matchless relic of antiquity will decorate the chamber
'itself, aik the conditions of its sale to Mr. .Soane express-
ly allowed of its being re-purchased be. Mr. Belzoni or his heirs,
at the sum originally agreed upon in Egypt. The chambers
are preparing under the direction of Mr. Jas. Courtine, to whom
the care of the tomb at Paris was entrusted by Mr. Belzoni,
when he started upon his hapless journey to Fez.—The
models of the Pyramids, &c., various drawings of the splendid
ruins in Upper Egypt and Nubia, together with the remaining
antiquities, now in the possession of Mrs. Belzoni, will occupy
the entrance-room ; and we have no doubt, both from the in-
terest of the exhibition itself, and from the sympathy which the
fate of that enterprising traveller has excited, that the result
will fully answer Mrs. Belzoni's most sanguine expectations.—
It is indeed for the support of Mr. Belzoni's aged mother and
numerous relatives at Padua, that Mrs. Belzoni is now exerting
herself. The lovers of Eyptian lore will rejoice at the above
information, and especially the author of Rarneses, from whose
notes at the conclusion of his second volume we give the follow-
ing extract

.‘"fhese Typhonic details of sepulchral decoration belong to
the tomb of Psammis, or rather of • Necho, exhibited by Mr.
Belzoni ; the undoubted identity of this tomb and the multitude
and importance of its symbols, render their loss a serious priva-
tion to the follower of Egyptian studies, in its exhibition being
withdrawn from England.'

" Champollion has shown from the" Phonetic characters"
that neither Psammis nor Necko were the tenants of the tomb,
but Petosiris.—( Cambridge Chronicle.)

E DREADFUL STORM and LOSS at
SIDMOUTH, Devonshire.—On Monday night the 22d
November, the town of Sidmouth was visited by the most
awful and tremendous Storm ever remembered. In the course
of a lbw hours the Promenade on the beach was completely
washed away ; all the houses in front of the sea, and many of
those in the lower parts of the town, were greatly damaged, and
some totally destroyed, by which many families have been, re.
duced to the greatest distress. A Meeting was immediately
convened, when a liberal Subscription was entered into,. by
which the losses of the poorest classes were in some measure
relieved.
A second Meeting was held on Monday, the 29th inst., E. B.
Lousada, Esq. in the Chair, wiles. the Rev. W. Jenkins, the
Rev. C. W. Ethelston, John Caralake, Esq., and Mr. John
Newberry, were named as a Committee, who were desired to
appeal to a generous and huinane Public, in aid of those dis-
tressed tradesmen whose heavy losses the former Subscription
proves inadequate to repair.
Subscriptions will be thankfully received by the Committee.
