" Please to offer to the National Institute, my acknow-

Fellow-
Members, that I consider this mark of. their esteem as the
first and mostagreeable of Literary,distinelions which I could
posibly receive. To be. the first chosen Assbciate of the
first Literary Society of the World, surpasses thy most am-
bitious wishes, and I cannot be too grateful to that Society
which conferred 'on me the Honour, or to the Nation of
which it is the Literary Representation :—a Nation, which,
during the'moSt frightful convulsions of a Most terrible Re-
volution; has never ceased to possess my esteem, in the per-
suasion which slid not leave me, even in the most disastrous
periods, that there were a .numser of good Citizens, who
should one day gain the ascendant, and re-establish in the
hearts of their Countrymen the 'empire of Virtue, Justice,
and Honour.
"In particular; receive Citizens, all my acknowledgments,
for the truly obliging manner in which you have communi-

Tit E ES.—The Winter'sTale'%6s to have
been revived at Drury Lane Theatre, on Saturday,
but owing to the illness of Mrs. PO w ELL, it was
unavoidably postponed, and renice PreJerv'd was
the substitute. We have noticed the revival of this
Tragedy; and the merits of the- Performers more
than once. It was represented before a very nume.
sous Aitaience, with unabated success on Saturday.
KEMBLE and. Mrs. SiDDONS in jaffer and Belcur-
dera, powerfully affeaed each other, and in the last
interview between these Charaaers, the feelings of
KEMBLE were SO strongly interested by the•exqui-
site skill of Mrs. Si DDONSi as for a few moments 16
render him incapable of utterance.
The Duenna was repeated on Saturday at Covent_
Garden Theatre. The only variation in the per-
formance was BRAHANI'S first appearance. in the
part of Carlos, a part indeed that .admits of little
more than vocal excellence. He gave the airs with
all that power and flexibility of execution for which
he is distinguished. He was encored in " Had I
a Heart," and « Ah! sure. a Pair," and' received
the warmest applause. Mrs. 804 INGTON diSplayed
all her usual musical skill in Clara., Her'only
cork was, " When sable Night." Her bravura
was a wonder of execution, and in this air WE I CH-
SELL highly. distinguished hiinself in the symphony
and obfigato*.pasSages.

We are sorry to hear that INc“riees indis-
position is so little abated, that he is ,advised to try
the air of his \native country, Devonshire.

FRn: THE

When-two neighbours have a quarrel,
gaged in a latir:-sti4 good souls are always k)und
to WOW tip the 'coals of discord: They successiveli-
calumniate the one to the other, exaggerate their
mutual wrongs; throw a veil over their virtu:* and
accumulate lies, where other materials are wanting;
If the then who have quarrelled, wish ro ire mr-
cOnciled, and weary of discord, and ashamed of in-
justice; desire to live in .peace; the 'sowers of dis:
scrition are immediately up in arms, and redouble
their malicious 'efforts to widen the breach. They
never had adhered to truth, but now they negied
even probability: Alarmed at the idea of return.:
ing concord, they wish at least to retard what they
despair of preventing, and with the- eagerness of a
condemned criminal, who wishes to get rid of life;
they fly to abuse and injury.
Such is the part at present adopted by many ot
the English Journals. Nothing can he more absurd
than the News which they publish from Frances
than the falsity of their.statements, and the gross-
ness of their misrepresentations. So far do they
this., that to repeat what they say is sufficient
punishment : to copy them is to refute them ; when
seen near, they resemble grotesque or misshapen
figures, • which only require to be shewn to draw
forth disgust or ridicule. Because one part of the
debt is not to be consolidated till after the Peaces
these Gentlemen assert that the Negotiation is pro_
traded in order to retard its liqui:!ation. While
France only desires the consolidation of the existing
order, and shews this disposition. in a thousand.
instances, they 'say that no One is satisfied with' it.
They make BAR 21tR, a Secretary of Legation;
OuEriELLE a Mayor;' D'HAUTERIVt an I.l.lder.
Secretary of State; DUV4I, a Jacobine; LETEXIEIt
a Royalist; TOUSSAINT LoUVE'aT:URE, a Preachers
a Politician, a Saint, a Martyr, Rebel.
While the • English who are atTaris try every
means to,get admission for their Wives and daughterS
into the societies of that capitacthey make theta
. write, that these societies are composed of ignorant
barbarians, crti;.7cnturers, brigands; the ,zumen
out honour, chastity; or even decency.
If one May believe them, the Patriots, Artists,
and 'men of Learning, are excluded from the partiet
of the Bankers, while. the ancient Noblesse are
to.go there, even though admitted..
_*
They appoint a Prince of the Mouse of Orange
to. the first Magistracy of Batavia ; a B:nrbon to
the throne of ranee, while the House of Orarge
have renounced the Stadtholdership honour,
as the Bourbons did the throne from we.tku,ss-.
They make the Nobles receive their f?rmer titles
universally, while in fad they are only acknow:
ledged among themselves, and only, given by their
valets.

They:m'ake the people of Am;enr.cry,
Roi while they, like the rest of France,. Ivy re...
sped to other nations in the persons of their Mo-3
narchs, but wish no Monarchs for themselves.:

' They bring JOSEPH BONAPARTE to Paris, though
he bas never quitted the Department of the Somme ;
and prepare, at Calais, a Packet.boat for Marquis
CORNWALL is, though he never thought orl.eturn.,
ing to London before the Signature of the Treaty.
One day they wisely compare clic French to the
Muscoyi;es, under PETER I. ; and BONAPARTE to
CHARLEMAGNE ; and the next di,y, they send
BONAPARTE to the Italian Republic, and raise
France into an insurrelion against his Govern_
Menr. They make General .13tRTHIER march tC,
Rome, and Mark that City out as.thc capital of the
Italian Republic ; while they send the POP a to.
Malta, and there constitute him Grand Master of the
Order of St. John of Jernsaleirr. The prohibition of
two intriguing Females, and some turbulent re.:
turned Emigrants from remaining in the Capital,
is construed into a mandate for the arrest of fifty
persons.

-CAmILL E-JORDAN, who is living quietly with his
family at Lyons,. where he, received many marks of
distil-16E0n -from the FIRST-toiqSin..; IMBr•.RT
LONNE, who is at Bareuth ; and DUVAL, who 111 es
with his family—all these, by a. Decree .of the
Times, are shut up together in a Prison at Paris.

Prussia, Russia, and Austria are to reclaim
against the resolt of the. Consulta at Lyons, and this
is. to light up anew the flames of War ; .bUt unfor-'
tunately for these English prophets, M.trquil Lt/c- •
C 1-1 EST NJ, in the name of-the-KtNo of Patrs'iA,
has congratulated the -First Consul on that reniti.
CountCoutigTzEL announces to the First Consul
that the ENtr ERoR, is disposed w admit the Pieni..
potentiaries of the Italian, Hatavian, and Helvetic
Republics, and to send to these States
.Ministers of
the same rank. M. MARccer, who had aequaint.
ed his Court with . the proceedings at Lyons has,
by the return of his Courier, received Letters at
Credence to the Consular Government.
Enough of such absurdities ! These useless
clamours do not diminish theglory of the French,
nor the strength of her Republic. They cannot
prevent the conclusion of Peace,, but they may keep.
alive jealousies and animosities, which, for the g.ood-
of both Nations, and the lasting continuance of
Peace, ought. to be for ever extinguished. • -

FOR twO months., people .have been in doubt
what COMILIa TOUSSAINT LOU V ERTURF would
low in his present situation; and,- as his last aeis
appeared to give an advantageous idea of his c,ha.
ratter
,and sentiments, some. have flattered them-.
selves that he would not destroy the good opinion
conceived of him by ,the Nation and Government.
Oar ideas with regard to this point will be recoi-
le6ted, and it will be found how conformable they
were to the truth. Though his aetions seemed to
indicate a superiority to his species, we have always
refused to allow him the brilliant qualities said to
be discovered in him. Ff TotasAt Zit had been en.
dowel with the judgment which is allowed him,
both in France and Enghind, he would certainly
not have preferred the part of a Rebel to-the this.
tinaions and favour offered him by the Govern-
ment. He would have perceived that his career
could not be gloriously .tcrrainateci but by a noble
retreat.• Had ToussAiNt given. up his Command
to his succecdsor, he would have had a just claim to
the gratitude of the French Nation. TOUSSAINT,
in rebellion against France, is bur an ambitious
upstart; perhaps, however, it is not upon tiia,

Tuesday tnorninga fire broke out in a malt-house
belonging to Mr. Nind, of Aston-on-Cartant, near
Tewkesbury, which entirely 'consumed the same,
together with about zso bushels of malt ; and be-
, fore the engines could arrive from Tewkesbury (a
distance of four miles), the flames communicated to
the dwelling:house, which was soon burnt down-.
Nind has a wife and twelve children, and was
able to save but very little,of his property ; all
their wearing apparel and linen, except what they
had on, was destroyed. •
A gang of villains have lately been, discovered at
a village near Taunton, in Sothersetshire, whose
depredations have been long felt.by the neighbour-,
hood. About ten days •ago three of them Were
taken up for sheep-stealing,. Their grand dept. 4 was
at the house of a young man of good property and
respedable connexions. They have made an ample
confession ; and,. amongst the resr, have declared
it was their intention to set fire to several farmers

At Nottingham Assizes the 'following Prisoners
were capitally convicted, and received sentence -of
death, viz. Mary Voce, for murdering her infant
child (she. has since been executed, and her body
given to the Surgeons for dissedion) ; George Pye,
• and'Robert Smith, for sheep stealing ;. William Cal-
lis, and John Forman, for stealing two heifers;
Ferdinand° Davis, and HenrylPalmer, for highway
robbery ; Jabez Dry,, for shoplifting ; and. John
Jackson, and William Shipley, for obtaining of W.
Savage four guineas under threat of charging him
with unnatural pradieeS..-7Pye, Smith, Callis, For-
man, Davis, Palmer, and Dry, are reprieved ;
.and
Jackson and Shipley have received a respite.
At Lincoln Assizes a Cause of considerable im-
portance was tried 'before the .Hon. Sir RoaEtu
GRAHAM, Knt. and a Speciat , Jury. It' was an
Action brought by a person Of the name of Stokes,
the owner of a boat, and -a carrier of goods by
water 'on the River Trent, against Mr. William
Etherington, an opulent and respedable merchant,
to recover a satisfadion in damages for an injury
done to the Plaintiff's boat, and for 'the loss . of
a valuable part of her cargo.—lt appeared in evi-
dence that Mr. Etheringten had lately been ereding
some 'very extensive warehouses adjoining the River
Trent 'at Gainsbro', and that to enable his workmen
to lay the foundation, a dam had been made by _the
means of poles and boards a few feet distant' thete-
dibm,-some of which poles had been negligently 'suf-
fered to remain in the bed
,of the rivet ; and on
two of which, the Plaintiff's boat happening to be
moored near the warehouse, dropped on the ebbing
of the tide, and sunk in consequence of their per-
forating her bottom. The defence set, up was,
firstly, negligence in the persons who had the
care of the boat, from not being on board when
the accident happened'; secondly, that: notice
was given them, when they moored the boat, of
the poles being in the bed 9f the river, which
they might have avoided; and thirdly, that the
place, of mooring was an improper one, and that
the boat, on the ebbing of the tide,. would have
filled with water, independent of the poles; but

the bPatman was -,regulated by the usage, of
those navigating on the River Trent ; that the
