ESSENCE of SHRIMPS, a new and superior

Anthovies, but far excelling it in flavour, and has the ad-
vantage of not turning rancid. The immense demand for it

wherever it is once used, it will obtain a pre-eminence ever

LONDON JOURNALS:

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.

[Morning Chronicle.]

The assurance we lately gave to the Public,
that Lord Cochrane had not arrived in any part
of the provinces of Venezuela, is borne out by a
letter, dated the beginning of December last,
from Margarita. It appears that the whole has
been a ruse de guerre on the part of Admiral
Blinn, connected with an important operation
he bad in view, and for this purpose be availed
himself of the arrival of another Naval Officer in
that quarter. The report had been aided by so
many external marks of the fact alluded to being
real, that the Spaniards, who, no doubt, have
been informed from Ragland that Lord Cochrane
was emba:king for South Amelica, bad fully be-
lie►ed it, and were in the utmost state of dismay.
This circumstance will convey a very good idea
of the sensation that will be excited amongst the
Royalists, when they learn the real arrival of
Lord Cochrane on the shores of the Pacific,
where he must have arrived about the middle of
November, when he would immediately assume
the command of a fleet, composed of at least 13
vessels of war.

The whole Performances were prepared under
the sanc►ion of NNor-General Sir DENNIS PACK,
K. C. 8., and the Theatre was never known to be
so numerously or more fashionably attended. The
excellent Band of the 55th introduced in Over-
tures for the occasion several solos ,end duets on
the clarionet, octave flute, and bugle. The Pro-
logue was from ihe classical pen of Brigade-
Major SMITH, and contained some admirable
touches on the practice of benevolence.
The Standard of England was this morning
hoisted on the citadel, and a Royal Salute was
fired at noon, which at first excited no small de-
gree of interest, from a general persuasion that
the Prince Regent had made his appearance in the
Oiling. But it was soon ascertained that these
ceremonies had been observed in compliment to
the Anniversary of the King's Coronation. His
Royal Highness is, however, most confidently
looked for, and upon his arrival will he met in
grand procession by the people of the Dock-yard.
The wind is still easterly ;. so that, if nothing has
occurred to produce a change of intention, the
Prince Regent may be expected here every day.
Our town is remarkably full, and a splendid Ban
is to be held this evening at the Royal 11°44
where there will not he a bed unoccupied.

ttt I.coneeive, sir, that more t hap informality is

14fficiently apprized of the motives which induced
the Court of Directors to pass such a Resolution,

P.XTRACT OF A LETTER PROM A GENTLF.MAN Iff

KILMARNOCK, DATED SATURDAY IiVENING, SEP.

TF,MB.ER 18.
You will be anxious to know the result of the
Reform Meeting of to-day, in this place, and in
great haste 1 take the first opportunity of giving.
you an ,account of it. Every one was in readi-
ness to suppress rioting. A troop of Hussars ar-
' lived this morning from Ayr, those stationed here
having been called to Paisley at the beginning of
the week.. The constables were convened in the
Town-Hall, where the. Magistrates and Justices
of the- Peace were assembled. After deliberating,
they came to the determination, if no violence
was offered, or if decorum was not violated, that
.they should allow the people to meet and say
what they chose, and that if flags with seditious
inscriptions should be displayed, they had persons
to note them do-.7n, and, if reprehensible, to bring
the beavers atttrwar;ls to account for so doing.
It is well there was no occasion for the inter-
ference of the Public Authorities, for the much-
feared
Kilmarnock Meeting of Radicals has just
turned out what I suspected--a quiet, peaceable
assembly. The Cammitree, about half-past 12,
%vent nut on the Newmilos-road, to meet their
ft ieads from that quarter, and in a short time they
enteted the town, to the number of sox or seven
hundretl,in a very orderly manner, without music,
and no flag was to he seen ; instead of these,
manv of them had Scotch thistles placed in their
hats_. They went up to the ground, ,when the
business of the day was commenced at the ap-
pointed hour, one.
From the flattering appearance of their good
conduct, numbers of respectable persons and cou-
:ables went up to zee what the Meeting was
like, aed at the ditinea. hour, with three or four
Gentlemen, I walked that length. We were agree-
ably surprised at the peaceable spirit which seemed
to reign among them. • It was any thing but a
great Meeting, as I have seen more persons at
tent7preaching in the neighbourhood of Glasgow,.
There might be from 1,500 to 2,000 persons, as
near as I can guess. The person who was addres-
sing the Meeting while I there, gave a pitiful
account of the times, in rather an eloquent manner.
Most of the speeches were violent, however,
thoogh containing a variety of melancholy truths.
It is very pleasing to the inhabitants of this place
that they have behaved in such a manly, becom-
ing manner; indeed, to their credit, every Speaker
invoked them to abhor. every thing
.like riot and
confusion, and to detest proceedings like those
in Glasgow and Paisley, as ruining the cause of
Reform.

ILNGLISII OPERA- HOUSE.

The ineritbd popularity of HARLEY dreW
merons andience to this Theatre last nitf ht. The
&St piece Was Inkle and Yarico. MiSs KatLY
was the Sable heroine, and she gave a strong inte-
rest to the part. Mi,s CAREW rendered the part
of Narcissi more consl►icn►'us than it has tisnally
been, and sung Auld Robin Gray delightfully.
DOWTON was at home in the Governor. l'Et4caY
volunteered his services in Inkle, and Mrs. BLAND
in Wowski. HARLEY was all spirit in Trudge,
except where he feels Tor the deserted Yarico.
' KNIGHT and other friendly Actors contribu, ed their
efforts on this oecasion-,-;a proof how well HAR-
LEY stands with his theatriCal allies —After
Songs. Glees, &c., the entertainments concluded
with The Highgate Tunitel.
We perceive that the Morning Paper, which
fell into the mistake of commenting on the Mac-
heath of Mr. DAvrs, who did not perform the
part, notices our observation on this mistake. IVe
can easily conceive that it relied on the report of
a person not present, and the error was con-
sequently excusable. It seems to intimate that
we accused it of having withheld lust praise from
Mr. DAVIS. When we accused a public C►itic of
doing so, we had no allusion to the Paper in
question, but to another, in which a gloomy Cri-
tic is sere at all times to condemn, but in
guage, however, too pedantic, pompous, and ob-
scure, to do any mischief. We have no reason
doubt th candour and impartiality of the Paper
in which the mistake appeared, and only noticed
it for the purpose of putting'Ne,vspapers in gene-
ral upon their guard against similar errors. Mr.
DAVIS was wholly unknown to us, but there was
a modest merit in his Carlos which induced us to
rescue him from undeserved censure.

MALESHEit.)ES.

This Illustrious Advocate of Louts XVI.,
shortly after his Sovereign's murcier, was sent 'to
the Revolutionary Scaffold, French Loyalty,
always abundant in such manifestations, as
Speeches; and Processions, and Statues, and
Monuments, is about doing great things for the
memory of MALESHERBES. His Eulogy is to be
pronounced in the Academy, and his Monument
is to be erected--s,o►newhere or other, I know not
in what place. Meantime, the Royalists are kept
out of their estates, the Regicides are pardoned,
and the Revolution is chartered ! These reflections
produced the following Lines ; which a Paui-
sian Journal (prudently perhaps) declined to
publish :

In that dread hour, when Treason's ruthless hand

Flung o'er devoted France her desperate brand;
When impious blasphemy and rebel pride

SweU'd high the Atheist and the
Then good Mal.mstiEßßEs came forth, and dared to own

The Saviour's Altar and the Bourbon's Throne.
Raising his honest voice, in virthe bold,
Unmoved by menace, and unbought by gold,

'Mid howling Jacobins he stood, and saw

The lawless Judges mock ih' insulted Law.

How sped MALEsuertnEs, let blushing History tall,
The martyr Monarch on the scaffold fell;
And the too firm, too faithful servant ? Ho
Paid with his life his hated loyalty.

A brighter day bath dawn'd : our happier time
Abjures the outran, and repents the crime;
While France, at length, has generously given
His Crown to Louts, and to GOD his Heaven.
Now, too, her mourning love a meed shall raise,
Por good MALESHERE es, of monumental praise;
The Sculptor's genius, ar►d the Poets' fire,
For hint shall wake the chisel and the lyre;
And Oil to distant times—" here lies the friend,
" Irlso died, his guiltless Sovereign to defend,"

Oh, glorious tribute to thine injured shade !
Oh, quick atonement to thy suffeeings paid
Rest tilt e, MALEstieftnEs, within that bloody tomb,
Nor deem unrecompensed its ruthless doom
Ere yet thy Country's penitential tears
Have the red stain effaced of rebel years ;
Ere yet upon the Bourban'e tomb hath died,
Of all his Joe:, one prosperous regicide ;
The marble and the Muse avenge thy name,
AND LOUIS YIELDS TO MALESHERBES' EARLIER CLAIM.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL. . .
CONDUCT OF CONSTABLES.—J. Sims, one of the
Night Constables of Farringdon-Within, was yes-
terday brought, to this Office upon the complaint
of W. Randall and three other watchmen, for re-
fusing to perform his duty in taking a charge, and
for otherwise misconduct ing himself in his office,
on Tuesday night. Randall said., that on the night
mentioned, when going his rounds through Cheap-
side, lie saw a party of about six persons, appa-
rently gentlemen, assault two Quakers, who were
peaceably walking together arm-in-arm. They
knocked off their hats, which were of a brown co-
lour, commenced a cry of " Hunt for ever," and
treated the Quakers in the most wanton manner.
Witness went to the spot in order to put astop to the
proceedings, when he was himself knocked down.
Three other watchmen soon after came to his assist-
ance, but they Were quickly laid prostrate by the
drunken Radicals. Atter a desperate resistance,
however',4 of the party were secured and taken to the
watch-house. Here the Quakers refused to give
evidence, not only because it would be in opposi-
tion to their feelings, but that. they were com-
pelled to leave town for their residence in the
country the following day.; The complainant and
his companions in vain urged a charge, and if the
defendant refused to enforce this duty, there was
at least sufficient evidence of complaint from them-
selves against the four Gentlemen. He however
obstinately refused, and.not withstanding every re-
monstrance dismissed the four defendants.

11te 'Magistrate (Alderman J. J. SMITH) repro-
bated tlae conduct of Sims in warm terms, and
said there was but too much reason to apprehend
that the conduct of Constables of the Night was
not removed very far from that too frequent sus-
picion which was applied to improper watchmen.
The defendant, under the Act, was fined 20s, and
Costs.

HATTON-GAIUDEN.
Yesterday Thomas Bucic, the driver of the Tot-
teridge stage-coach, appeared to a summons on
an information under the Stage-coach Act, 50
Geo. 111. chap. 48, charging him with carrying
more passengers than what the law allowed ou his
stage. Though Buck tried much to evade the
penalty by producing a false license, on the clearest
and most satisfactory evidence he was convicted
,in the penalty of 201. and costs. It appeared that
this conviction would not have been insisted on
had not Buck, some few days ago, in coalition
with a ragged wretch of an informer, of the name
of John Masters, tesiding about Bethnal-green,
and using Worship-street Office, informed against
his own. friend before the Lord Mayor, for con-
niving at the offence, in order• to extort the penalty
nf,501. in consequence of his friend (at his own
Testiest) interfering with the real informer, in
order to save him the penalty. After the convic-
tion, Buck publicly expressed much sorrow at his
own treachery, saying, that since he informed
against his friend he had had no rest, and when
he gave evidence before the Lord Mayor he hated

MERMAID.

Naturalists have hitherto doubted of the exist-
ence of Mermaids and Mermen we have it now
in our power to set at rest the doubts of sceptics
upon this duplex ordsr of animals, one having,
been lately discovered basking upon the rocks of
Derrygirnla, in Errisbeg (Connemara), after the
ebbing of the tide.

It was discovered by a female of the lower order, who was
then about four niontits pregnant; slit was suddenly startled
by a kind of scream, which was followed by the plunging of an
animal half female and half fish, her lower extremities having
the confirmation of a dolphin. This woman was so terrified, as
to miscarry, and has never been able to leave her bed since ;
the tide being out, the animal had some difficulty in reach-
ing tire water. Thomas Evans, Esq. of Cleggan, a Gentle-
man well known to many of our Readers, just arrived upon
the coast in time to witness her last plunges ; having gained
the water she disappeared for a few moments, but again ap-
peared perfectly composed; Mr. Evans now had a favourable
oppurtuoity of examining' this so long doubted genus;—
it was about the size of a well-grown child of ten
years of age ; a bosom prominent as a girl of sixteen ; a
profusion of long dark brown hair ; full dark eyes, hands
and arms formed like the btiman species, with a slight web
connecting the upper part of the fingers, which were fre-
quently employed throwing back her flowing locks, and run-
ning them thro' her hair; her movements in the water seemed
principally directed by the finny extremity ; for near an
hour she remained in apparent tranquillity,, in view of up-
wards, of three hundred persons, fulfil a musket was level-
led at her, which having flashed in the pan, she immedi-
ately dived, and was not afterwards seen. Mr. Evans de-
clares she did not appear to him to possess the power of speech,'
for tier looks appeared vacant, and•there was an evident want
of intelligence. As this is the season of the fishery, we are
in hopes some of our fishermen may draw her in their nets;
as it is extremely probable at the time she was first discover-
ed, sire was inn search of some place to deposit her young.
Vs understand several depositions upon oath as to this
animal's appearance are to be made. Al e are promised a
more minute descriptiosi, which we shall be happy to lay be-
fore our readers.—(Galway Advertiser of ..aturaa.y.)

[The Times.]

We are mach gratified in looking over the. last
arrivals of newspapers from North America, to
observe the high tone of just and honourable
feeling which has been there called forth by the
facts disclosed on the subject of the Seminole war
—with its memorable episode of Arbuthnot's and
Atnbrister's execution. The whole case has been
taken up with becoming spirit and warmth, as
well by individuals of the Legislative Bushy as
by the Press. The war with the Seminoles, in
so far as it was pushed beyond the litni:s of the
United States, and into the Spanish tern ory,
was declared by Mr. Cobb to be a breach of the
Constitution, which, though it authorises the Exe-
cutive Government to tepress the Indians, con-
fines the exercise of that prerogative to the boun-
daries of the Union. The seizure and retention of
Pensacola and St. Mark's ate equally pronounced,
in thespeech ofthe above Gentleman, to he stretches
of power not sanctioned by law ; because, when
joined to the intrusion upon the Spanish territory,

It is admitted that the Englishmen could not be
lawfully tried, even for treason to America, by a
military Court but it is justly stated, that for
the crime of treason they could not be tried at all
by any Court of Justice in a country to which
their allegiance was not owing. How much more
aggravated and atrocious, then, was the act of
capitally punishing, by a subordinate Tribunal,
men who had not rendered themselves amenable
to the very highest jurisdiction known amongst
the United States. How much more dreadful still
that one of them should be put to death in rank
defiance of that very military code which had thus
usurped a dominion over him, by the pure caprice
of an armed Tyrant, who founded his determina-

" PROTESTANT PETITION.

cr We understand (and rejoice to hear it) that a most re-
spectable deputation will immediately wait on his Grace the
Duke of Leinster, Lord Charlemont, Lord Cloncurry, and
several other distinguished characters, for the purpose of
procuring their signatures to a Requisition to the Lord Mayor,
requesting him to call an early Meeting of the Protestants of
Dublin, and other Friends of Civil and Religious Liberty,
who are anxious at this critical moment to petition the impe-
rial Parliament for the repeal of all Penal Laws which de-
grade and injure their Catholic Countrymen.—(Freonan's
Juurnal)

" Dublin freckly Re aster Office, Two o'Clork.

" We have jest learned that the Deputation, above alluded
to, will wait on the Duke of Leinster, at Carton, on Monday."

We again exhort the awhotiserf Members of
our National Faith to 'exert themselves with
zeal proportioned to the importance of the cause,
and we again assure them that the columns of
THE SUN shall always be open to their communi-
cations on a question that is vitally united with

ing a distinct answer to this important question.
But this is not all—the PAPISTS will not purchase,
nor take mortgages on lands to which they. con-
ceive that they have a legitimate right, which right
they must be expected to enforce, if ever they
should be invested with Political Power. Nor can
it be imagined, that, if it were possible to bestow on
them all the lands wiiich belonged to their fathers
t hat they would he satisfied, unless they obtained -a
full restitution of all arrears which they conceived
to be due from Protestant Possessors. What then
but eternal feuds, rebellions, massacres, and all
the horrors which Popish vengeance could inflict,
might be expected ? We are accused by The
British Press of attempting lc. to awaken 'once
more the cry of No Popery,' " and as far as re-
lates to the pretensions of Roman Catholics to a
participation in Legislative Authority, we admit
.and glory in the charge. So far and no farther
do we wish to raise the cry of No Popery,' in
order to keep the Constitution inviolate, and
to preserve the purity of the National Faith.
Let the PAPISTS freely enjoy their RELIGION,
but let them not attempt to ensnare Protestants,
nor to regain that Political Power from which it
was essentially necessary to exclude them, in ordgr
to preserve and to secure that admirable Establish-
ment in Church and State, which forms the only
basis of our freedom ',4l7piness as a People.
