ORDER OF TER -DAY.

Lientenant-General. Lot d Wm. BENTINCX ex-
perience: great regret, that the 'duties , imposed
upon him, by the high confidence which his,3la-
joAy has been graciously pleased to repose in him,
has rendered the pneceding:act of justice and ex-
ample absolutely necessary, and he makes known,
once for all, to the army under his eon-Miami, that
it 'is his intention to persevere in it as long as the
infamous and traitorous 'crime of desertion shall

cQntitthe.

The British service is ,a voluntary enrolment ;
no man is forced to, enter it ; he does it by his
spontaneous :Ind free will.
The British is a Service of liberality and jus-
tice ; what is due to the -soldier is_never with-
held from him ; and in cases of wrong or injury,
the means of procuring justice are open to all.

.r
N-o -soldier' 18 ignorant that this is, the practice
of the army, consequently there can be ifo w,eil-
fpunded reason for the unworthy crime of desex-
tion ;. but the late frequency -of the offence re-
quired prompt and efficacious 6xamples.

(Signed) J. CAMPBELL, Adjt.-General,

Mr. CANNING will this day bring forward his
motion respecting the Roman Catholics, when
the question will again undergo a full discussion,
though it is impossible that any thing new can
be said upon the subject. It, is unilerstood that
Mr. CA SINIG will move the following resolutions :
Ist. That, the House will, early in the next
Session of Parliament, take into its most serious
consideration the state of the Laws affecting his
Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects in Greatnil-
tßin and Ireland, with
_a vie* to such a final and
conciliatory adjustment as may be conducive to
the peace and strength of the United ,Kingdom,
to the stability .of the Protestant establishment,
and to the general satisfaction and concord of all
classes of his Majesty's subjects.

2d. That the foregoing Resolution be laid be-
fore his Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT.,

We haye not heard that any thing new came
out irethe debate in the House of Lords,,on
Fri-
flay, respecting 'the late Negociations. Lords
MotEA, GREY, and GRENVILLE, we understand,
severally explained the motives of 'their conduct,
and the two last-mentioned Lords denied .that
they bad the slightest intention of offering any in-
sult to. the PRINCE REGENT. The discussions
upon this subject are now,, we trust, over—
and, we most sincerely lipe that the serious
inconvenience, which has resulted from the,
publication of all the letters 'which have pass-
ed, and the' conversations whieh have taken
place during these negociations,, will put a stop to
.a practice which ought never, to' have been adopt-
ea. The conduct of tOrcf MotRA during the whole
of these transactions has be-en candid, honourable,
and consistent. The Principles Upon which he
acted were not adopted for the occasion ;- they
are the settled principles of his political life. His.
determination respecting the Household did not
arise from any' wish to' conciliate the REGENT at
the expellee of the Constitution, He enter-
tained and exprssed the same opinions years
ago, and ,31r Fox' then expressed the, ,most
distinct approbation of his conduct. The Fos.ites
of the: preseut day, however, seem to think that

tl:e sentiments Of Mr. vox, Loki 7,ioniA, Mei
SHERIDAN, and Mr. WHITBREAD, are not for tl
Moment to be put in. competition- with those
of Lord QRFNviLLE and. Lord GREY. -There
are but two things in which the Party is con-
,. •
sistent, and these are the rancorous abuse
which they pour forth against any person
who is unfOrtunate, enough to differ from them,
and their arrogant pretensions to exclusive politi-
cal talent and political virtue. The moment any
man, however eminent for his,talents, or however
estimr.ble for his private worth, presumes
to -dissent from the dogmas •of the head of
the Party, 64, moment he becomes the object
-of the most • envenomed' abuse, and -evr.ry
effort is made to hunt him down. W re-
collect :when Lord FITZ WILLIAM, Lord SPENCER,
and Mr.•WiNniumg, differed in opinion , from Mr.
Foi upon the subject of the, French Revolution,
they were ridiculed and attacked, without mercy,
by their former ,friends ; Lord • MoiRA and Mr.
SHERthAN* are now experiencing similar.treat=

ment, and y-e are not quite certain that Mr.
WHITBREAD Will escape. -

The opinion 'which we have always entertained
of the importance of the union of Lord-SIDINIOUTH
and his friends with the present Government, was
abundantly confirmed, on Friday last, by Mr.
SHERIDAN, who may be considered as a pretty'
adequate judge of public men. In his spee,ch on
that day, we observe that he describes that, No-
bleman as an individual of "omblemished jute-.
grity, animated by pure patriotism, • and possessed
of great. political knowledge," and necessarily,.
therefore, a great acquisition to any Administra-
tion. In justifying,,the cordial support Av:.:11 ate
had given to that Noble/ Lord, as uninfluenced by
any private motives, he noticed. the constitutional
and. conciliatory tenour of his general conduct,
and defied contradiction when he Stated that the
vigour of his military and financial measures'wa.3
absolutely unrivalled. We are unable to conjec-
ture what motive, but an honourable, feeling, on
this subject; could have led Mr. SHEItiDAN to
press those sentiments.; in which 1.11. r. TIERNEY
,also appears to have, in a great
,degree, conr
curred. • _ _
