witness said, that having beard of the fame of" Mother Lovell,"
she went with another fetnale to like lodgings in Charles-street,
Drury-lane, and saw herin a dirty little apartment, in which-
there were only twd Chairs and a table,' with a man who passed
for her husband ; this tteiri'left the room, and the prisoner said
" that she could; tell her fortune," but she must receive 2s. lid.
for so doing; witness and her companion gave her a shilling

Mary Aim Wells,•of Chatharn-place, another female, about
40 yeersof age, stated that she had had.her fortune told by the
prisoner, and had paid her money 'for it,' The witness seemed
quite ashamed of the expasi,- iu3d ,refused to state what took
place between her and the Sybil. She admitted that she was
soon to be , ridden •of ".stale virginity," and to have lots of
money with her husband.
Sir G. FAHNAarr told the accused that she was one of a
family who practised deception upon the public, and he had no
doubt that she was aware that shelled snbjected herself to three.

least danger that there will be ope,ehip and crew tess employed
by the late enactments, the subject cannot be , too often before
the public. That the Tory Administration, have conceded and
eoneented to the liberal opinions of those which were the most/
inveterate enemies of Britain—that they have made the most
sweeping alterations in the Navigation LIMA in a profound
peace, which they had made the most strenuous objections ,to

victories, via. that under the connnand of Lord Howe in the
Channel fleet, on the let of June, 1794 ; that under Earl St.
Vincent, on the 14th February, 1797, off the Cape St. Vincent;
that under Lind Duncan, I lth October, 1797, off Camperdown ;
and that under Lord Nelson, on the Ist of August, 1793„ off
Aboukir,—our enemies begun to despair of conquering us by
a naval force, therefore a peace was Opelllded, and Talleyrand
immediately distributed his commercial agents into all our
sea-ports, to give him the most minute information on our
maritiMe-polley. The war which commenced again in 1803,
was said to be against the opinion oathe cunning politic Tel,-

skilled in deep diplomatic intrigue—that a few years of peace
was *much surer way to lead to the conquest .of than

Balt marine be destroyed,' and then lie (Buonaparte) would
easily. command the whole world.
This Idea of destroying our power lee been stedfastly follow-

whether under the 'dominion • of a grind monarch, a natienal •
convention, or an imperial diadem, it has ahewn itself equally
strong; .In a Spanish or Portuguese tortes, or in the llouee of
Renresentatives of America, there is the same jealousy and the
Name envy of the British wealth anti power,---this,feeling is
always prominent and visible, into vhatever hands the rule
falls ; and perhaps, it is natural that it should be so—it is the
essence of our nature; few can withstaiadthe desire of acquiring
wealtirandpower ; and whoever are itapossession • of them are

of this power stands'the fate of Great Britain. !

embraced this mighty teal, as .the onsurnmation of' those
wishei would have been the downfall of the power of his great
rival. In his too great ardour to obtain this point was his tell;

it the greatest encouragement; but we will never consent to Ise

we likewise consider that defence is better than riches, and that

even down to the illustrious Chatham anti his illustrious son,
and we will take leave to err under the force of such examples
(if erring it is), but which we' tire not inclined to consider
as such. . .
Let us therefore proceed to a further investigation of the
subject, which has been so clearly traced to a foreign origin,
taken up at second hand by our economists, and by them cram.
med upon us as a more totind principle! Let us look the
• question fairly in the face, and fearlessly gt .pple with it, ': and
compare the one system with the other. The old Navigation
Laws have stood die test of time, endeheir effects are so sube
stential and tangible, and rest on so solid a base, that no $67.,
phistries can destroy or separate the effect from the cause.
Indeed their merits 'were never questioned by any description.
of men until our own economist* questioned them ; for neetnily,
were the Navigation Laws considered as the cause of our great-
ness in this country, but the whole world- acknowledged
it as the foundation on which rest; our naval :power, our,
strength, our ..greatnese,. anti„ bur glory, the admiration
and the envy of the world, the consumnsntion of the wisdom
of our ancestors, reconithinded to our regard and veneration
fur the benefits whieh we have aniforntlyderieed from them,
benefit which other. 'imitions 'are
.emitetvourieg to grasp jivni
us,' and which the found principles of our Been/marts ere
well calculated toiling into their hands, contrary to every state
policy that has governed us for.centurim—What greater deli/.
skin-can mania produce, than foe the, Economiets to be ranting
about soundee principles of ComMerce, when looking this day
at the power and grandeur and commercial wealth of Great
Britain. If this is not the ram oftlelusion, then wliere is delusion
to be found, and our most earnest prayer is that this mania
may cease, that the good sense of the itingdern.May detect such
qnorkery, and return to that .priticiede which has been r tried
and produced such <reds.
We will, recur once more to the base on which our Navign-
Bort Laws are founded. As respects the right of Great Wheel
to enact them, we surely shall not meet with the smallest doubt
on that head-;.-on what grotind do the economists rest their
objects;. will they attempt to deny that every Government has
not equal indispetibie. rights to promote the industry and wel.
fare of itspeople.in' the safest and most effectual way ; nor lies
any nation a right to exact from another unrestricted 'admission,
or any admission at all, us regards their con-petard, deilings
with each other. All natioas secure the Chief branches of their in.
dustry by prohibitory duties and restrictions, anti tide never was
considered any violation of the laws of nations ; nay more, the
system that occasioned the prohibitory laws was net only
adopted by every government in Europe, but acted on anti care
tied to the utmost extent that, their respective situations, abilities
and aeceashies would. Ott*.

p-ERRE, COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF 111$ MAJESTY'S
NAVAL FORCE BEFORE CADIZ, BY REAR.AD-
741RAL BAIION.DES HOTOURS, COMMANDING Tile
BEFORE ST,PETRI.
This..anorning at day-break, the wind being,
east, a fresh breeze and a fine sea, I ordered the
Centaur and Trident, line of battle ships, and the
Guervierefrigate, ,to sail, designing to attack Fort
St. earl... At seven the division was under sail,
the; :Centaur leading, followed by the Trident
and.Guerriere. It was my intention to pass
dose ,by,.the bank of rocks called Juan Bella;
I therefore ordered the Iris corvette, Captain
Boniface, (which yon had sent me in the night,
atul'which I had retained.) to take the head of
thelituyand to sound at such a distance as to be
title to let me know the depth, and to tack
whenever. it was less than ten fathoms. This
order was well executed, and the division thus
applfttiOted St. Petri.
4:At noon I was joined by the Santo Christ()
sehootter, Lieutenant Frotel, whom I.' ordered to
sound to windward as near as possible to the
reef along the coast, and to let me know the
depth. 'At a quarter past one I hoisted the
*signal nit which I had agreed with our batteries
that .they (night begin their fire, which was done
with` exireme vigour. When I had got to the
d 41014 I desired (Fort St. Petri bearing S. E.),
. I 'Meted Mr. Ponee,, commanding the Centaur,
te.take his position at this point, which was done
with great ability, though the wind was strong,
eed,the. current unfavourable. The sails being
takeit in with as much order as celerity, I gave
th-e signal to begin the fire, which the fort re-'
turned :with the few pieces that it had on that
side, IVfeentime the Trident advanced ; she was
ordered to anchor Italia cable behind the Centaur,
but thitwitid varying from E.S.E. to S.E. she could
nOtanchor nearer than a cable's length, and be-
gan to fire as soon as she was moored, receiving
stiti the Centaur the fire of a battery in the Isle
of ,St.c,Leon, and of a battery of Sena Petri,
tvhicii also fired on the Santo Christo, which
.vsai 'within quarter gun shot. The Guerriere
-wits going to moor behind the Trident, but I
made a signal for her to take the head of the
and whether it was that the wind failed, or
that the currents hindered it, she could not reach
kw station, and removed a cable and a half to
-windward of the Centaur. In this position she
begat' her fire ; but perceiving that it did not
reach' the fort, and that of the Trident did not
sufficiently pass it,. I sent. Lieut. Thiebaut, my
::ldeotie.cautp, to order these two vessels to return
r.t.oi their stations, the Trident astern of the Centaur,
aed:the Guerriere before it. It was three o'clock.
nit, Centaur had been engaged since a quarter
one ; Fort' St. Petri returned the fire only
at lang,.intervats,.
I thought the time. was come
to attempt to 'storm it. I made a signal to the
division to embark its troops in the boatsoind to
rend- them towerds the Centaur, which was exc.
clued with all possible celerity,and. I welted only
for the moment when the Trident and theGuerriere
shoirld have taken their position, and commenced
t ite,fire, to order the land ing,when at half-past three
theifort hoisted a white flag, which was imme-
diately saluted by a thousand cries of" Five le
Rol 1" 1 immediately sent the boats, having cm
board 420 of the 12th and 14th of the line, and
a detachment of grenadiers of the Marine Artil-
lery. When they reached the foot of the rock
on which the fort is situated, Captain Teliot,
who commanded the landing, sent me a Spanish
Officer with a flag of truce, who proposed that
tlAtarrison should retire to the Isle of Leon,
• an der its respective colours,and continue to serve
against Ike French army. I insisted that they
• nhould engage not to bear arms against France
during this war. This was acceded to, and was
iTgilti to be executed when the Spauictrds, fear-
ingto return to the isle of Leon, preferred being,
prisoners, and our troops immediately took pos.

retteatforts to which th measure, so grate.
Cif to the Drapeau &anal i calculated to
glee rise. Upon their own: showing, it was
óti- entering Parripe,inna, that the fiir:srquis of

Trau►riston immediately caused 150 inhabitants to
be arrested ; that is to say, when he had neither
the means, nor, above ally the time necessary, to
examine maturely how far the complaints against
those persons, whom he caused to be imprisoned,
were well founded.

Let us pass to considerations lesss afflicting, but
perhaps of greater importance. Who has the,,
right to do away with the decree of Andujar,
extcept its author or the French Government ?
But the Prince Generalissimo, so far from having
revoked the decree, has confirmed it by the order
of the day which the Major-General of the army
published at St. Mary. No act of the French
Government has announced that the ordinance of
Andujar is to be considered as annulled ; it exists
then still ; it is therefore obligatory on the Mar-
shals as well as on the Generals of the army of
Spain. None of them, without violating the first
and most important of military duties, can dis-
pense with obeying them. In what a state would
he who should permit himself to take measures of
opposition place himself ? No, no, a soldier
grown old under the standards of Napoleon, has
not exposed himself to all the consequences of the
act which-tbir Drapeau Blanc attributes to him ;
such an idea may have arisen in the head of a
fa-
gnatic, but never in that of a military man. •

46 PERPIONAI4.—The Constitutional division
landed with four liackets of cartridges a min.
On the 15th it had traversed the country be-
tween Menge as far 'is Llado, near Figueras.
Gen. Damns, notwithstanding his ill health, took
active measures, Orders were given to,` the in-
habitants of Gerona, and the other towns, to
take arms, under pain of the severest penalties.
This General had already taken a position at
Llado on the 15th. Gen. Nicolase, who com-
manded the detached troops blocking Barcelona,
arrived on the 15th at six o'clock in the evening,
at Besaln. He marched a part of his frisnipo
Campredon, another to Ripon, and a third to-1
Barejoda, to cut off all retreat .from the Consti-
tutionalists The firing commenced in the after
noon at Llado. The affair was extremely san-
guinary. The enemy fought with incredible
fury, especially the foreign legion. The action
lasted till the commencement of night. The next
day they wished to continue their march to Figu-
eras. If they had not lost this night in taking a
position, it is very probable that they would
have effected an entry. A stillsharper action took
place in the environs of Llers, distant 3 quarters
of an hour's march from Figueras. The carnage on
both sides was horrible. But at length the am-
munition being expended, and the Constitution-
alists exhausted with hunger,, Colonel Fernandez
demanded a parley. A capitulation was con-
eluded, in which It was agreed to save the lives
of the foreign prisoners who formed part of the
Constitutional column. Many French officers,
not expecting this clause, destroyed thernitelves,.
some with razors, and others with their swOrdis
and pistols. The greater part or the foreign
battalion perished this affair ; almost all the
superior officers ef.tha column,.Spaniardcas trail
as foreigners, are killed or wounded. The gar,
risen of the fort of Figueras made no sortie to
assist them, nor did it make any attempt to get
posiussion of the previsions of the town of Fi-
gueras, while the troops which formed the gar-
risen were with General DithlaF. it is said that
the Spaniards on the 16th did not second the ef-
forts of the foreign soldiers, who fought with
desperation."
Colin!, SEPT. s,—lt is announced that the son
of Colocoaoni has just married the daughter of
l'eitro Beg, of Bahia, and that this marriage, by
uniting these two Chiefs, who were hitherto op-
posed to each other, has greatly contributed to
promote conciliation in the Morea. Sixteen
thousand men of the best troops now occupy the
Isthmus of Corinth, and defend the passage.--
The Montenegrins, as welt as the inhabitants of
Agra pha and its environs, have taken arms against
the Turks, and the Pacha of Scutari, who had
already sustained one defeat, is surrounded on
all sides.

The Regency of Spain has placed several Spa-

G emu , Seer. W.—(R/17w/. of a Private Let.
Hter.)--Ecciesiasties of our city, who have con-
nections with tile Clergy of Rome, have received
letters from that capital relative to the Conclave,
and though nothing authentic has transpired, I
think it well worth while to communicate to you
the following reports :—The Conclave, it is said,
is likely to last a very long time, because opi.
'lions are divided amongst a great number of
Cardinals, and no one has a predominant in-
fluence. Report says, that Cardinals Calve.;
Curiozzi, and liertazzoli, had the most
voices. Cardinal Calvachini had, on several
scru.tinies, from Tcl, to 14 votes. 'fh people al.,

ready regard him as Pope. Redisplayed great cot-
rectnessand firmness when hewn governor. The
middle and lower classes remember these circum-
stances with pleasure, and call him the Pope ; but
the Roman nobility, confessing his good qualities,
say he would make a better administrator than a
Pope. Among the nobility the Cardinals Sum-
rnaglia and Zurla are talked of. T lie former is
very old, which is a recommendation with those
who pay attention to the wishes and interest of
foreigners ; for as there is no appearance of una-
nimity among the Courts of Europe on this point,
the election of a very old man for Pope would
only postpone to the new election, which must
then shortly take place, the denouement of those
intrigues which the different parties have engaged
in. But there is a great number of influential
families in Rome, who, contrary to the ancient
maxims, wish to have a Pope in the flower of his
age, and likely to reign a long time. The tem-
poral interest of the Roman dominions coincides
in this point with the spiritual interest of the
Catholic Chure:i, which has so many losses to
make good. Cardinal Zurla, whose talents and
virtues are exalted by the authors and orators,
has all those in his favour who do not desire
speedy changes.—lt is said that Cardinal Goo-
salvi is dangerously ill ; he has been frequently
bled, and ;suffers much from•palpitations of the
heart. He remains, however, in the Conclave.
VIENNA, SEPT. 19.--The 144:mperor set out 044
