by that orthe Netherlands, which is able to re-
. Pose much of its solicitude, respecting its exter-
mei relations, upon the natural guardian of Euro-
pean independence (Great Britain), yet a very
general eXpectation is entertained that in the

NEW 'OItANGE SYSTEM.

The Irish Orange Association has adopted :a
new system of rules and regulations, arranged by the Grand
Lodge of Ireland, assembled in Dublin on the 4th of August,
1823. To these rules they had prefixed a short declaration, and
a copy of the oaths of allegiance, supremacy, and abjuration
According to the new rules, no other oaths are to be taken by
the Members of this Association, nor any secret to be kept,
except the pass-words, by which they arc to be known to one
another as members of the same body. The oaths are to be
taken before Magistrates, and not privately administered. The
present officers of the Grand Lodge of Ireland are as follows :
Grand Allister—The Right Hon. Charles Henry St. John,
Earl O'Neill, K. S. P., &c.
Deputy Grand Master—Colonel William Blacker.
Grand Treasurer—Sir Abraham Bradley King, Bart.
Deputy-Grand Secretary—Daniel Fred. Ryan, Esq.,Barrister.
Deputy-Grand Treasurer—William Stoker, Esq.
Grand Chaplain—The Rev. John Graham A. M.
Assistant Grand Chaplains—The Rev. Graham,.
Harcourt Lees,
Bart., the Rev. John I. Beresford, A. 8., and the Rev. S. H.
Steward, A. B.
The following is the declaration of the Lodge :—" This as-
sociation is formed by persons desiring, to the utmost of their
power, to support and defend his Majesty King George IV.,
the constitution and laws of the country, and the succession to
the throne In his Majesty's illustrious House, being Protestant,
for the defence of their person and property, and Tor the main.
tenance of the peace of the country; and for these purposes the
Members hold themselves obliged, when lawfully called upon,
to beat all times ready to assist the civil and military powers in
the just and lawful discharge of their duty. They associate,
also, in honour of King William 111., . Prince of Orange,
whose name they bear, whose glorious memory they hold in
reverence, and whose illustrious deeds they annually comme-
morate, tending as they did to the restoration of civil and reli-
gious liberty, and of the pure form of religion established in
these realms. This is exclusively a Protestant Association ;
yet, detesting an intolerant spirit, it admits no persons into its
brotherhood who are not well known to be incapable of pose.
cuting, injuring, or Upbraiding any one on account of his reli-
gious opinions ' • but that their principle is, to 'aid and assist
every loyal subject of every religious description, by protecting
him from violence and oppression."—(frish Paper.)

We copy the following important article,frorn
o Glusgoro Courier of Tuesday last :

" We some days ago noticed the arrival of I.k. MACKAY
from Mexico, to which State, it was asserted, he had been sent
upon a special mission, by our Government, and which the same
report stated had been attended with complete success. We have•
reason to believe, from information obtained through channels
on which we can rely, that these reports are perfectly correct. ,
—The Doctor, we hear, has done .his business, negociating a
commercial treaty with .Mexico, in a most complete and satis-
factory manner, and upon a basis that will prove most satis-
factory and beneficial to our merchants. So close did the
Doctor keep the object of his visit to. Mexico, that not a single
individual there had any idea of his business, and still less
that it was of a public nature. IVithiu those few days a bill
drawn for him while in Mexico, upon the Treasury here, passed
through the hands of a commercial house in this city. The
tied for commerce in Mexico.is very great, and the duties arc,
we hear, to be fixed at a moderate rate, and upon a sworn in-
voice value as in the United States.

WINDSOR, Nov. 27.---This morning after
breakfast 1118 MAJESTY rode out in his phaeton.
The King proceeded in his morning airing in
the Great Park)._ &c. for a considerable time.
His MAJESTY Apected to leave us to-morrow,
to the regret of the inhabitants, Six., for some
length of time.

SPANISH PATRlOTl.—Yesterday a Committee,
composed of gentlemen of the first respectability,
assembled at the British Hotel, Cockspur-street,
for the purpose of promoting a subscription for the
relief of those Spaniards who have been compel-
led to seek iu this country an asylum from the
►engeance of the restored FERDINAND. The
committee, after consulting for some time as to
the best means of effecting the object which they
have in view, adjourned until Monday next.
Colonel JONES, of the Grenadier Guards, who
was in the chair, received communications from
Earl SPENCER., and other distinguished indivi-
duals, approving of the proposed subscriptions,
and expressing the strongest sympathy for the
unfortunate Spaniards.

r. HonAcc Twas.---The reason that induc-
ed this gentleman to come forward with a public
declaration that lu has not, and never had,
any connection with the weekly Paper in-
titled JOHN BULL, is, we understand, because
isuch a report had been current in legal circles,
and the Gentlemen of the Bar, deemed it a point
of professional Etiquette that it should be openly
contradicted. Otherwise the disavowal might
have been considered as an officious intrusion
upon public notice.

CAPTAIN PARRY.--An account of the lust
Voyage of this enterprising and intelligent orna-
ment of the British Navy, we understand, is now
preparing, under the unction of the Admiralty.
Every thing of oourse important and interesting
will be recorded. The work will be highly gra-
tifying to the world at large, and will remain a
perpetual monument of the zeal for knowledge, and
the liberality with which it was carried into
effect, which so honourably mark the British
character, with respect to the enterprise itself,
end the persevering spirit, as well as fortitude,
which attended its execution.

The late JonN TAYLon VatromAtt,
whose recent death has been stated, was well
known to the fashionable circles, and at one
period was admitted even into those of Royalty
He was an Underwriter by profession, and ac-
cording to report, possessed considerable pro..
perty. He was blunt and unaccommodating in
his manners, but hospitable, and not unwilling
to render a kind service in his own peculiar
trimmer. He was well-known in the streets of
London and from the peculiarity of his hat, was
generally styled HAT.NAIIGIIAN, and by many
Pensjilvanian VAuclitArr, as the covering of his
head was in the American shape. lie was the me-
dium of a very benevolent offer on the part of his
present Majesty to the family of the late Mr Sna.
AMIN, during the close of that Gentleman's life,
but which was declined, because the family had
ample resourses to supply every thing that his si-
tuation could require. The zealous and disinte-
rested attention shewn to this great Orator, Politi-
cian, and Poet, during his last illness, and till his
death, is one of those noble instances of kindness
which have always marked the character of his
friend, Dr. BAIN, who has now, we find, relin-
quished the medical profession, and resides,
Alum cum thin/tate, at his seat in Dorsetshire.

FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

GENERAL FUEGO.
Among the charges brought` tigitinst this mtir.
dered patriot are those of cruelty and rapacity at Malaga ; and
as it would have been hazardous. to assert the ill treatment of
British commercial tresidents, without supplying names and
particulars, the pretended mercantile sufferers were transform-
ed into Americanc—with what justice we leave the following
extract from the Nor York .Evening Post of October 31, to
decide

JIMMY IMPORTANT FROM gpA/N.
The arrival at Boston of the brig Prudent, Ellis, in 37 days
from Malaga, brings the following note from Mr. Barrel,
United States' Consul at Malaga, containing highly favourable
and most cheering intelligence from the Peninsula. It ought
to make those who have all itiNg sneered at us for holding
similar language respecting the aftkirs of Spain, hide their di.
minished heads:—
" News has just reached us, that Itiego,after giving the French
a complete beating in the streets of Jaen, _leaving 700 of them
dead, besides wounded, proCeeded on hia•mareh, and was in
a place called La Carolina, rapidly marching towards Madrid,
and was in expectation of joining with Martin, the Empecinatio,,,
and but little doubt remains that he is at this moment within a,
few leagues of the capital of Spain.' The authorities of this
place spread a report two days since, that he was captuted ;
but it was merely to deceive the ignorant, and keep alive the
hopes of the Serviles; more properly called the " Banditti of
Ipain."
If the Government in Cadiz remain firm. a very short time'
longer, the face of affairs in this unhappy Country sill Wear a
different aspect; and Europe may have to thank-Spain forsiV.
ing all the Continent from despotism.
The conduct of Riego while in this place has hien
ported in the Gibraltar Chronicle in a base and shameful light
--false in every respect, and a tissue of lies. lie acted like a
gallant soldier, and a firm unshaken patriot ; and among all
the Generals in Spain he has proved himself capable of acting
for his unfortunate country in the true „style of the old Romans.
Malaga, Sept. 20,1823.'"

SAVILLE Roosts, LEICESTER-SQUARE.— Milli
MACAULEY, last night, gave her Histrionic Deli-
needn't of the character of MARY S UAltp, at this
place. The composition is her own, and her
recitation gave full force to it, with such a variety:
of expression as the nature of the subject re-
quired. We regret that we have not room to
detail the merits of her entertainment. The
literary talents and oratoriel -powers of this Per-
former place her indeed bra 'very -tonspicuons
' lights and well entitle her to public admiration
and encouragement.
Brrn, Nov. U.—The long promised perform
an" of Italian Operas at our Theatre, took place
last night. The performers engaged for the oc-
casion were Madame floNzt De BEGNIS, Signor
Brunez, Signor PLAcci, and Signor de Heusi's.
The piece represented was It Turco in Italia. In
addition to these performers, Miss GEORGE, Mr,
PRILLIVS, and Mr. LATHAM assisted. The whole
was under the direction of Signor DE BEGNIS.
Mr. Longa was the leader of the band, and Sir
GEORGE SMART presided at the Piano-forte. Wl'
have not at present morn for the particulars of
this harmonic treat in the regions of Old BLADUD.
COACZ RACE.---Another of this degrading and
dangerous competition which so frequently takes
place occurred on llreduesday in the New Road
from Paddington. Two suburb stages pro-
ceeding to the Bank struggled for precedence
with such perilous activity us to terrify all spec-
tators on the road. One .young woman was so
shaken and frightened that She was nearly
thrown off the top of the coach, hut was taken
down on a momentary halt. The horses seemed
to be sinking under the merciless contention, and
the neck of one of them was quite raw and bleed.
ing. This account was given to us by a Lady,
who followed the stages some time in her own
carriage, alarmed at the probable result, and
who informs us that she has obtained the numbers
of the two coaches. We advise the Proprietors
of the Coaches to enquire* into the conduct of
their drivers ; and they will probably learn that
these mischievous contentions frequently occur.
We wish that Mr. MARTIN had witnessed this
disgraceful scene.
A letter from Plymouth says, that " MINA
and LtonEnA are in a French brig in the Sound, which is an-'
der quarantine." This accounts far the delay in the arrival of
that distinguished Patriot in London.
Tat LATE Sir Pyots MOSTYN,-111 addition
to the enormous landed property of which this
Baronet died possessed, he left behind him funded
property to the amount of three hundred thousand
pounds. Sir PYERS MOSTYN likewise., jointly
with Lady LontsA BROWNING and Lady EDEN,
held the office of Gusto: Brea:on in the Court of
Common Pleas ; the patent of this place these
persons hold as being immediately descended
from KINa CHARLES the SccoNni
.the late Sir
PYERS MOSTYN'S mother having been a daughter
of the Earl of LrrennEr.D, who was a natural
son Of KING CHARLES the SECOND by BARBARA-
the Duchess of CLEVELAND*
DARING Roatteux.---Yesterday evening,
Gentleman, named Smith) Passing through a
street near Finsbury-square, "a fellow came up
and asked him the time. Mr. Smith incautiously
took out his watch and its appendages, when
beforean alarm wasgiven• Mr,Stnith having either
the robber immediately snatched it, and ran off
slipped or fell from the thrust the fellow made.,
On Tuesday last the Chain pier at Brighton
was opened to the public by a procession, con.
Listing of the nigh Constable, the Commissioners,
and other constituted authorities, attended by
the magistrates and a number of the nobility
and gentry at
present residing there. Three
barrels of ale were given away on the occasiou
by Mr. Bush.
