MR. EDITOR-At the Illt»dee Meeting of RA•
otcaLs, I see The Morning Chronicle reports the
following words of Mr. KINLOCI( of Kinloch—
yet this is called a sober Meeting. l'ray ask the
ATTORNEY-GENERAL what is SEDITION if this is
not ? Yoor's,

" If these Reverend anti Worshipful Monsters
" are not dragged from their biding places—if
" they are not put upon their trials for the murder
" of their fellow-citizens—

" Then there is neither Law nor Justice in Eng-
" land, and the time is SPAR, when we must
" either bow our necks to a Military Despotism,
" or be prepared In Rise like men, in defence of
" our liberties."

Till THEATRE.-Miss STEPHENS returned to
Covent Garden Theatre on Saturday last, in the
part of Diana Vernon, the fair heroine of the Opera
of Rob Roy. She was received with the most flat-
tering marks of public favour. She looked the
better for her travels, and sung with all the sim-
plicity, beauty, and expression, for which she is
dislinguished. LISTON is obviously restored to
Lull health, and his BaiVie Jarvie displayed all its
original and ludicrous humour. MAcRRADN's Rob
Roy is one of his best efforts, and is powerfully
effective.

On Friday the Doke of ‘VecuntwroN left town
for his seat at Stratfieldsey, in Ihmpshire, in
order to inspect the improvements carrying on.
Yesterday his Grace returned to town, and in the
evening dined with Mr. WELLESLEY POLE, et his
house in Saville-row.
Mr. CANNING arrived at the India Board Office
on Saturday evening from Italy, and had. yester.
day morning au audience of the PRINCE REGENT
at Carlton-house.

The title by wLich Lord LASCBLLES iS to be
called up to the House of Peers is that of Earl of
Northallertou, Baron Lascelles. •

Mr. COBBETT'S family are arrived at tl►e place
of, their former residence, Botley, from America.
It it confidently asserted that COBBaTT sent to
this country, in the same vessel, the bones of
Tom PAINE.

The Gazette of Saturday contains Loyal Ad-
dresses to the PEUNCB REGENT tram tile County
of Linlithgow, City of Bath, Town of Pembroke,
Burgh of Alusselburgh, County of Cornwall,
Town of Leith, County of Edinburgh, City of Co-
ventry, Burgh of Irvine, Burgh of Queens ferry,
the Faculty of Glasgow, County of Hertford, the
Prebbytery of Glasgow, Town of Cambridge, and
the Burgh of Dunfermline.

It is a curious circumstance, that Butt shook
not only Share his own Capitals, but also sell
purrs of those of other Offiee-krepers ; yet strange
as it may appear, it is nevertheless true, as his
Agent at Liverpool being short of Shares, and
there not being sufficient time to write to London
for more, be bought some of Mr. WILLB'II Agent,
one of which was a 20,0001. Prize in the present
Lottery ; and the Agent at Edinburgh, being also
out of Shares, bought a few, and one of those was
another Prize of 20,0001., which clearly demon-
strates that DISH is not only lucky himself as an
Office-keeper, hut his Agents are lucky also ; and
we trust they will give a good account of the Six
Prizes of 20,0001. now in the Wheel, Two of
which must he drawn in the First Five Minutes,
Next Day"of Drawing, 9th of Next Month. We
recollect last time there were (a.► now) Liix
20,0001. Prizes, 131sH sold Three of them AIL IN
SHARES, and they were distributed over all parts
of the United Kihsdolu.

1111?, DUKE OF GLOUCESTER'S VISIT
TO WORCESTER.
[Prom " Worcester Herald" of Nov. 40.]
As we mentioned in our last, a deputation from
the Body Corporate of this city, consisting of the
-Right Worshipful the Mayor (E.. Isaac, Esq.),
the High Alderman (H. Chamberlain, Esq.), Sir
Anthony Lechmere, Bart.,-'l'. Carden, Esq,, and
the two Chamberlains (H. Clifton and. William
Wanklin, Esqrs.), left this city for Croome, the
seat of the Earl of Coventry, on Tuesday mons.
ing, in three carriages and four, to wait upon his
Royal Highness the Duke of GLOUCESTER, who
arrived there on the preceding evening from
Coombe Abbey, the seat of Earl Craven. Upon
the deputation reaching Croome, they were re•
ceiverl by Viscount Deerhurst, who shortly after-
wards introduced them to the Royal Duke and his
Aides-de-Camp, when the Mayor announced the
wish of the Corporation that his Royal Highness
would honour this city with a visit, for the pur-
pose of accepting the freedom of the city. The
Duke, with much affability, expressed the gratifi•
cation he should derive in complying with this in-
vitation, and fixed this day (Friday) at one
o'clock, for his visit.—The deputation then par.
took of an elegant dejeuue, at the conclusion of
which they joined the Royal Party in a shooting
excursion, to which they were politely asked by
I the Earl of Coventry.
• Precisely at one o'clock, the signal of the arrival
of hit Royal Highness within the city, was given
by the bells of the Cathedral, and was followed by
the bells of the different churches, and in a few
minutes,his Royal Highness alighted ar the gates
1. of the Guildhall, amidst the acclamations of the
I populace. His Royal Highness was attended-
] by his noble host and hostess, the Earl and Coun-
tess of Coventry, Colonels Sir Archibald Murray
and Cotton, his Royal Highness's Equerries,
Ladies Augusta Cotton, Jane and Sophia (Coven-
' try, Lord Deerhurst, (our highly respected Mem-
, her) the Hononrables John, Thos. and ‘ll7Ol. Co-
ventry, Sir R. Gresley, Bart. and a numerous patty
of distinction. An excellent band, provided for the
occasion, immediately struck up, •‘ God save the
King," when the Mayor, Aldermen, and Common
Conned advanced to the steps, for the purpose of
receiving their illustrious guest. The whole party,
preceded by the Sword Bearer, bearing the Sword
of State, Serjeants at Mace, &c. Btc• ascended
the grand flight of stairs into the ball-room, where
the ceremony of presenting the freedom lime.
diately commenced. The Earl of Coventry,
as Recorder, then addressed his Royal Highness
in an elegant and classical speech, testifying
the satisfaction with which he executed the
pleasing duty now imposed upon him by the
Mayor and Body Corporate, and in presenting to his
Royal highness the freedom of this city, so justly
famed for its loyalty, assured him of the attach-
ment and sincerity with which the loyal citizens
of Worcester approached his Royal Highness for
the purpose of thus expressing their marked vene-
ration and respect for his Royal Highness and
every branch of the august House of Brunswick.
His Royal Highness, in reply,' as far as we could
distinctly hear him, was most graciously pleased
to accept the freedom of the city, presented, as
it was, in a manner so flattering to his personal
feelings. For the devoted attachment the an-
cient and Loyal city of Worcester had ever
she wn to his family, he could not but express
his admiration and thanks, and he trusted that
ii would ever remain faithful to those principles
which had secured it from the commotions that had
unhappily assailed some neighbouring districts.
His Royal Highness concluded by wishing the
citizens all happiness and prosperity. - His Royal
Highness was then conducted by the Mayor, in ap.
propriate state, to the table in another part
of the room, on which was spread an elegant
cold collation, with ail kinds of fruits, 'vines,
&c. On the health of his Royal Highness be-
ing given, be expressed his thanks, and pro-
posed the health of the Mayor and Body Cor-
porate, and prosperity to the city of Worcester.
Atter inspecting the paintings and other objects
worthy of notice, his Royal Highness, attended
by the same party, quitted the Guildhall, and
walked through the principal streats of the 'city,
accompanied by a prodigious number of specta-
tors, who greeted his Royal Highness with shouts
of applause. The ball-room was literally crowded
with the principal ladies of the county and city ;
indeed, such an assemblage of rank, beauty, and
fashion, we scarcely remember to have seen on any
similar occasion. They partook of the cold col-
lation, and retired highly gratified with the po-
liteness and hospitality so conspicuously mani-
fested to them by the Body Corporate.
From the"Guildball, his Royal Highness walked
to Messis. Flight, Barr and Barr's accompanied
by the whole of the distinguished party, for the
purpose of inspecting the magnificent service of
Porcelain, now nearly completed for his Royal
Highness the Prince Regent ; the ground colour
of which is of a beautiful rich dark blue produced
from the mineral termed Cobalt, lately discovered
in his Royal Highness's Duchy of Cornwall. His
Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester, who hat
always been a liberal patron of these works, was
pleased to express his approbation of the rapid:]
improvements :nide since the period when Mr..
Barr had the honour of conducting his Royal
Highness through the process of the manufictory,,
a few years since.

The Duke of Gloucester was at Messrs. Cham-
berlains' a considerable time, and expressed him-
self highly gratified wits► the great improvement in
their china, which he was pleased to observe would
supersede the necessity of Foreign Porcelain, be-
iug the finest in texture, transparency, and paint-
ing, he ever beheld of English Manufacture. Li-
beral orders were given by the whole party.
The deputation, consisting of the gentlemen
already named, accepted the hospitable invitation
of the Earl of Coventry to dine with his Royal
Highness at Croome, ►his day, and they proceed-
ed in the same form as on Tuesday.
The manuscript of the elegantly illuminated
freedom of the city was executed by Mr. Rogers.
one of the artists employed at Messrs. Chamber-
lains' manutaentory as a painter, and by Mr.
Stretch, writing master of this city, so justly ce-
lebtated for his excellent penmanship, and was
considered a production of infinite taste and merit.
The cold collation was under the supetinten-
dauce of Mrs. Linton, at the Cross, and was ttni-,

versally admired for its neatness and its elegant
arrangement.
At a period like the present, when in ocher
places certain turbulent individuals have prepared
for themselves a rabble fitte:f for every excess, and
have, by their perverted doctrines, blunted the
perception of the enormity of every vice which
revolution, under the specious title of " Radical
Reform," may suggest as the means to accom-
plish its objects ; it is a sonrce of peculiar pleasur6
and gratification to us to know that the same city
which, on a memorable occasion, afforded a hos-
pitable asylum to an ill-tated but virtuous Mo-
narch, is the first to evince its unshaken loyalty
to our venerable and highly-revered her
sincere and faithful attachment to every branch
of his Majesty's august House; and her deter-
mination to support our glorious Constitution, as
happily established hi Church Host State.
The Duke of Gloucester, we hear, will leave
Croome on Monday, fur lic,rkeley Castle.
