AFFAIR OF HONOUR..

The following is the concluding Letter, which
follows those which we inserted yesterday, re-
”wet ing the unfortunate dispute between Mr.
GRADY and Mr. QtYIN

Boulogne-sur-Mer, July 15, 1519: •
'SIR—My letter, of the 29th of June, was delivered to you,
at Adare on the 6th inst. You refused to give it an answer,
and it has this day been returned to me through the Adare
Post-Office. You had hing before then received my letter of
the 6th of June; between the period of receiving it and,tbei:
delivery of the second letter, you had time to make up your •
mind, and I should I.)e ashamed to express the inference to bq.
drawn from vont decision.

Reflecting upon the affectionate intercourse that subsisted
between us for is years, I cannot review, without the deepest
sense of pain, the revolution you have undergone within the
short space of 12 months; and all from the fatality of put-
ting your judgment and your conscience in the hands of a man
eminently unqualified for such a trust. It is no secret that
he advised you to the first improvident step in this unhappy
affair; that. he ut;ed you to persevere while yet you had the
means of retracting; that he arranged your defence, and un-
dertook, as sour witness, to support the defence he prepared'
I never libelled the unhappy man: and whatever he has said
to the contrary, 110 action was ever brought against me for
what I never did; but, in a system egotistically morbid, the
absence of panegyric is the absence of calumny. 1 had, in
" THE BARRISTER," spoken as they deserved of some shin-
ing characters in the profession, and because his name was
not varnished in my verse, he never could forgive me. You
knew this, and therefore in a case where an injury was to be
dune to me, you shotild not have put his feelings in the place
of your own—his wounded vanity in the place, of your
serenity—his levity in the place of your solidity—and
his avowed malignity in the place of your avowed gratitude.
Ile knew the imputation of having been your adviser ia so
shocking a case was universal against hint; and though he
admitted having advised in three material parts of the tran-
saction, he atterwards laboured to get rid of the imputation
altogether by one sweeping allegation, wherein he perempto-
rily stated, that he never advised you at all !! Which, con-
sidering his obtrusive habits, and that yon were at the same
moment •‘ bringing his pretensions lo promotion under the
eye of the Lord Lieutenant," is just as probahle as that you
believed one word of what he said, and just as true as that he
was nut at the memorable quid pro po CollCtiltlol/, hen
Sarah Lyons let him in on the morning of the ltd of
September. You had following, you had respect, anti you had
principles that never dishonoured you ; but what became of
them, when, at his instance, you committed yourself in a de-
truce that melted into air at the very name of Sarah Lyons ?
If, therefore, you have fallen (which I shalliegret as deeply
as ally man using), at his dour h~ the monument of 3our ruin,
I am, Sir, your humble Servant,
THOMAS GRADY.

some remarks in another place, it might be ad-
visable that the Committee should stand over for
some time; to see whether any petitions-were pre-
sented against that measure. The law, too, pro-
posed to abolish Wager of Battle, not Only in
writs of right hereafter to be brought, but in any
which might be now depending. Though he-did
not know whether there were any such writs now
dependiug, he thought it would be a bad prece-
dent in legi.lation to introduce' a clause' having
an effect upon suits depending,
The Bill was ordered to be committed on
Monday.

EXECUTION.

pile rll'is morning the last melancholy operation of
law was carried into effect on the following
our
c'nunate criminals convicted at the April Ses-
sions • , viz Nicholas Benign Albin (Aged 32), and
Thr'mos Jeffcott. (aged SG), for stealing letters
ermlainin;,-; Bank-notes, entrusted to them in their
t_lilbaciries as Clerks in the General Post Office ;
uharles !fright (aged 42), for a burdary under
cpircuinstances of peculiar aggravation ; George
i" (aged 20), for putting off a forged Bank of
li
I''ngland Note for 201. to Messrs. Wood, Phil.
ps, and Co.; and William Ambrose (aged 28), for
Viliciously shooting .it, with intent to murder, R.
lner. A few minutes before eight, Wright
seended the scaffold with much fortitude, and
)Dined in prayer with the Reverend Mr. Covros.
i
rice was the next, and Albin and Jeffcott fol-
rv"' ; these two were attended by the Rev. Mr.
I
41R, as well as the Reverend Ordinary, and
."(incted themselves in a manner highly becom-
i'lg, their unhappy situation. Ambrose came up
4.4:tsand seemed to evince a 'deal of hardihood.
;i" a few moments spent in devotion, the signal
lea: given, the drop fell, and the unfortunate suf-
,. jers appeared soon out of their misery.—The
`)flaexions of Albin and Jeffcott were highly re-
ectable and great exertions had been made to
obtain a mitigation of their sentence, but we un-
verstand the answer to such applications was, that
" turpitude and extent of their offence preClad-
c the possiblity." Jeficott,,up to the ptesent
ti
iscoveiy, bore the most exemplary character,
anti) 'vas held in the highest esteem ; he has left
1:e" Parents to lament his untimely end. Albin
also left a wife and infant child to bewail his
:I°4-iinions departure from this world. Wright
an 3 a° old offender, and Ambrose was a well-
yl,l,•wn desperate character, Price, though a
bjrng man, had long been in the traffic for which

oered for execution at the same time, received a

rOMBINATION AcTs.

Mr. Hu-mu presented a petition from a number
of journeymen tradesmen and mechanics in Lon-
don and Westminster, complaining of the opera-
tion of the lawn relative to,cOMbinations .among
workmen for the purpose of obtaining higher
wae's, and praying for an
,amendment of them.
The Hon. Member, after some observations on the
hardships to which these laws subjected work-
men, and the unjust advantage which they al-
lowed to masters, gave notice, :that bo Tuesday
next, he should move for ferrite to bring-, in a Bill
to amend the Combination Laws.

Mr. ELLica spoke in favour of the prayer of
the petition, and said, he would give all the sup-
port-in his power to the principle of the Bill.
Mr. WILLIAMS felt indebted to his lion hien('
for bringing this subject before the 1-10tise. It
had been the policy,ot master manuftictuters and
trade,,rnett for some time back to reduce the price
of labour, and he was convinced that these coin-
binatio,:s' were injurious to the best interests.ot'
the coitonunity.

Petition was then brotight np and read.
On the motion that it he laid on the table,

Lord EBIUNGTON said, he entirely concurred in
the sentiments expressed by the lion`. Members
who had preceded.; and he hoped that some Inca-
sure to remedy the evil comnlodued of by the Pe-
titioners would be adopted ill the course of the
next Session of Pariiitutott.

CAMELFORD ELECTION.

Mr. HustF. observed, that in the absence of the
Hon. Gentleman who had been Chairman of 'the
Camelford Election Committee, he was anxious
to communicate to the House the grounds on
which tic Committee had reported that Mr. Hal-
lett, one of the witnesses, bad wilfully absented
himself. It was proved that he had taken anac-
tke and prominent part in the transactions of the
election, and had subsequently left his own
house, so that every effort to serve him with
warrant for his attendance had been ineffectual.
Of four princip;il -witnesses, three were absent ;
but this case the Committee were perstmded
that the absence was intentional. lie understood

. that the individual was tioiV itl Cmtotly Upon the
Speaker's warrant, and although it was not for
him to suggest what coarse the House ought to
pursue, he certainly thought such proceedings
should be adopted as would soppott the authority
of future Committees. Under these considera-
tions, he now moved that the indiVidual in ques-
tion be committed to his Majesty's gaol of New-
gate.
Mr. STURGES BOURNE expressed some surprise
at the motion of the Hon. Gentle Man. He knew
nothing of the circumstances of this case, but
onderstood that it was matter of suspicion merely,
that this individual had purposely absented himself
from his home. It seemed more consonant to the
practice of other courts of justice it) cases con-
tempt, to call upon the party for his defence before
committing him to Newgate. He might deserve
the punishment, but he ought to be informed of
the charge against hint.
Mr. /fume observed, that he bad made the
motion upon an understanding that it was not the
mind course to move that the party should be
called to the bar. He litt4,, been unexpectedly
called on to bring the subject under considetation.
The !-::reati.en wished to apprise the House,
that it was its ancient course, and there were
some recent instances of its porsited, to
repose the fullest confidence in its Committees,
and to hear the statements of the parties who
incurred their diiplea,tire by petition's only
Oil the mot on of Ml'. CROK ER, the Repo'rt of
-the Committee was read. It expressed the opi-'
!lion of the Committee, that Mr. Hallett had.
%Wilily absconded.
Atter soinecouversalion, in. which Mr. Scar-.
le") Alt Macdonald, Mr. Croker, ataMr. W. D.
Harvey took a share, the motion was wi:hdraWn
till Finlay, in order to give rime to the person in
custody to present. a petition to the House.
Mr. JuiliN SMITH brought tip. the Report of
the Bankrupt Regulation Bill, which was recom-
mitted, and the Report ordered to be taken into
further consideration on Thursday.

To repel obloquy, to mitigate sufferings, to in-

enlcatr benevolent feelings, and to invite impar

we readily accede to the request of a Correspon-

London, England, 1819-04-16

TO THE ANTI MONOPOLY COMMITTEE.

GENTLEMEN,—AIinsv me to call your attention,
to the great reductions which have taken placein
the prices of Hops and Malt. Hops are absolutely
nut above one-fifth of the price which they were
at in the beginning of last year, when Beer was
raised to 6d. per pot, as it was saiq, in conse-
quence of the hig-h, price of hops Hipps were
then 301. per pocket—they are now only 61. The
price. of Malt is also reduced at leAst one-fi:th.
The materials of Beer are unusually low, but Beer
is kept up at the higltest price to which it ever
attained in times of dearth. Providence has
blessed the land with a bounteous hand, and
Monopoly is cursing it with the effect of a real
scarcity !!!
In your Resolutions, published last Spring; it.
was said that at least one penny per pot in the.
price of Beer was a sacrifice to the licensing sys-
tem and interests ; that this penny per pot,, in the
aggregate, amounted to an annual levy of 850,0001.
upon,the industrious classes of the metropolis,and
of four millions sterling upon the inhabitants of
the country generally. But this statement is short
of the fact. By reference to Returns, I find that
in April, 1801, Malt and 1-lops were actually
dearer than in April, 1819. Beer was then sold
at Vid. Now that the arbitrary licensing system
is fully ripened, and the opposition Breweries and
houses for retailing Beer are put down, Beer is
charged no less than I per pot more. is the
continuance of such a systein to be longer en-
dured ? Pray, Gentlemen, call another Public
Meeting. It the brewing and licensing interests
in a certain Assembly are too strong for the inte-
rests of the Public, let the Throne itself be ad-
dressed. So long as two centuries ago,. lice!,si,ig
abuses were the subject of Petitions to the
Throne. Ourfirst JAMES listened to the c,m-
plaints of the sufferers and gave them redress. 'lite
privilege conferred on pirlicular individuals to
grant or refuse Licences to sell Beer was then
annulled. The Licensing Act of the 2d of GEORGE
11. revived) it. Is it not high time that au arbi-
trary power, so pernicious and unworthy of the
present enlightened age, should be once more
put down, and the Public have restated to theta
the right of

Yesterday advises were received from Rio Ja

that a considerable trade was cariying on be,

advises that the communication of British
vessels with Lima, under the agreement be--

Peru, had 'undoubtedly taken place. These
accounts coniairi:as usual heavy 'compl4nts on

remarkable, -that while the depredations 01 these'

to lawful trade, and while strict injunctioniOri

British subject taking part in the war, we neVer-

PLEA '47.13.E.
" But pleasures are like poppies spread,
" You seize the flow'r, its bloom is shed."
BURNS.

I sa%y a most beautiful Rose •
Embrac'd by the amorous Morn ;
I watcli'd, antlat evening's close—
Well !—Nothing remain'ti but a thorn !

I saw a most beautiful bubble-
Spring up to my goblet's brink ;
But erc it could marry my lip,
'Twas drown'd in the delicate da'ink!

'Twixt clouds very heavy with rain,
I caught a gay smile from the sun
But, ah ! like an April shower,
'Twos ended as soon as begun

I saw, toot a husscy cali'd Pleasure,
Exact like the foregoing things:
I thought I had lit on a treasure—
Lord love me ! the hussey had wings !

And hundreds of wings, too, the diddle !
That bore her aloft in a minute :
Quite true the jade gave me a tweedle,
But said I might hoop for the linnet 1 .

With her I'm—a mouse with a cat:
Ah ! somehow we never agree ;-
0 ! hang her—l hate her—that's fiat;
She may go to the for me.

FOR THE SUN.

THE CATHOLIC QUESTION.
quid niinis.

Ma. EDITOR—You call fur additional matter
on this subject from a Protestant Public, who
admire you no less for your zeal than they are
obliged to you for your communications. From
me you have bad a full history of it, from the time
of Augustine the Monk to the present ; and as
other Co,rrespondtents have afforded you a large
addenda, though perhaps not so connectedly to
the point, one or two excepted, 1 do not think
that any further diScussion can give it new light.
It has made a deep impression, and roused the
sleeping lion of Great Britain- and Ireland.
Trusting to the wisdom of parliament, and their
just respect to our Constitution in Church and
State. I have no reason to doubt their defeating
:he Petitions of the Papists, which have been
turned round every Sessions since the year 1806,
when their hopes for success were encouraged by
those Ministers who, were they now in power,
would see the gross inconsistency of what they
then proposed. They lost their places in conse-
quence, and alarmed their afflicted Sovereign.
Chagrined and disappointed;their party has since
made it a Botie rather of a political and temporal,
than a religions or spiritual Opposition. This has
reduced them below their level, and betrays a
Vindictive spirit against Ministers that be, and
every thing they do ; for which they are much to
be pitied ; and so friendly am I towards them,
that I finish this concluding Paper on so nauseous
and disgusting a subject, with an humble ejacu-
lation :—May Almighty God soon turn their
hearts, make them sensible of their errors, and
teach them their amendment ! Keep 'them, 0
Lord, out of all cabalistic clubS, in which evil is
meditated and promulgated ; and correct their
judgment of politics, which, from its fallacy, they
insult by their defence; or as if the people of
another Babylon were flying in the face of their
Creator by their presumption, impose, 0 Lord.
eternal silence upon them, by confusing their
tongues, and leaving them to bray for their
wantF., like asses in the field.

BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE.

Mr. WyN;:o:7latie s(nne observations on the in-
convenience produced by the number of Orders of
ihe Day which cvc:a; fixed for this day, aid the
impossibility that so touch business could be dis-
patched at one sitting of the House, with due at-
tention. He hoped that half of the Orders which
stood for this day would be postponed to to-mor-
row or some other day,
London, England, 1819-06-24

the commencement of tht duty on foreign Wool
had been pos,ponetl till 10th Octohei, abliotie,ll
ite'llad been assured by the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer ti at they should commence trom sth July.

The CHANCRLLOB fO. the 1% .....XCHFCLUER said the
alteration was Blade in consequence of vet), strong
representations from the parties interested in the
subject.
Mr. SUMNER explained.

Mr. WU.B2BFARCII expressed some 3 pprelien-
tions that the imposition of a new tax on wool
would be found injurious to the manufactures
without benefiting the agricultur3l interest.
Mr. GIDDY GILBERT thought the tax watt ne.
cessary for the epcouragernent of the agricultural
interest.

Mr. Et.t.los was against the tax, pad was thank-
ful to the Chancellor of the Exchtsper for post-
poning the time when the duty should commence.
Mr. FORBES opposed the lax.
Lord Lase,lles, Mr. Seheffoer, Mr. Finlay, and
a Member whose name could nut be learnt, spoke
against the tax.
Mt. IL SU?dNEA explained.
Atter a few words twin Mr. IVEsTsaN ant! Mr.

G:npv, •
Mr. S. WORTLP? moved as an amendment,
that the clause for the Dew duty on wool be
omitted.

After a few words from Mr. SUMNgR, the
antvodnient was negatived wi;hout a division.
The Report of,the Bill- WfiS agreed to, and the
13111 ouleted to be read N third time this day.

On the Order of the Day for the Committee of
Way• anti Menus BM,

Air. CALVERT objected to proceeding to further
business of such importance at so late all hour.
Nit.. C. HUTCHIsSoN mole the same objection,
and complained that the Chancellor of the Ex-
chetrier had brought forward a question relative
to Ireland on a former day, at an hour when It ish
Members were not present.
The CBANCELLoR of the EXCHECi,UER said that
it was of course- impossible to fix any particular
tour for Irish business.

he House then went into the Committee of
IVAys and Means, in which a resolution for the
Annuities WAS agreed to.—Report to-day.
The other Orders of the Day were then dis-
posed of, and the House adjourned at flall.past
o'Clock.

MALT TAX.

Mr. \VEsTERN tvlshed to know whether the
Right lion. Chancellor of the Exchequer had
been int!uced to adopt any resolution favour
of the Monsters, in consequence of the interview
‘v,icli It, hill held with tlo

The CnANCELLoR of the ExCHECiIIeR replica,
that the only question discussed at that interview,
was whether the Malt st evs t.vho had a considerable
stock On hand, should on that account be released
front a considerable part of like new duty.
London, England, 1819-06-24

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

A Petition was presented from. Andover, pray-
ug a protecting duty against the Importation
of Foreign Corn.—Read, and ordered to lie on
the table.

Mr. Serjeant ONsLow obtained leave to bring
in a Bill to amend the Law relative to the ac-
cepting of Bills of Exchange.
Mr. Serjeant ONsLow moved for leave to bring
in a Bill to regulate the admission of Attornies in
the Courts Of Law. The intention of the Bill
was to abridge the term preparatory to admis-
sion to three years. He did not at present know
whether it would be advisable to extend the pro-
visions of the Bill to Ireland.—Leave given.

Mr. CoKe (of Norfolk) presented a petition
front certain Persons in the County of Norfolk,
complaining of the pressure of taxation, and es-
pecially of the Malt Tax, and proposed the sub-
stitution of a graduated Income Tax, which should
not extend to any persons whose incomes were
under 3001. a year.
The SPEAKER said, that if the petition was
against any of the late taxes it could not he
received. —The petition was, therefore, with-
drawn.
London, England, 1819-06-24

FUTURE LOANS.

The Earl of LIVERPOOL observed, that as per-
haps what he said on a former evening on this
important subject may not have been clearly un-
derstood, he now %visited to state, that it ivas
great object with his Majesty's Government, and
they had every reason to think it probable, th,it
the Loan lately negoeiated would be the last they
would have occasion to contract for, (hiring the
contionance of peace ; with the exception, how-
ever, of the five millions which must be raised in
the next year towards the agreed proportion to be
lignidateii of the debt due to the Bank.
Lord HOLLAND inquired, if it %vere proposed
atm the Acts rendering the notes of the Bank a
legal tender, should be repealed ? To which the
Noble Minister replied in the negative.
The Lottery Bill went through a Committee
and was reported ; and the other Bills upon the
tilde being respectively forwarded, the House ad-
jourue,l till to-morrow.
London, England, 1819-06-24

EXETER GRAMMAR. SCHOOL.

Mr. WILBERFORCE,. presented a petition from
Dr. Lempriere, late Master of the Exeter Gram-
mar School, complaining that he had been cause-
I essly and 'unhandsomely dismissed by the Trus-
tees of that School. The petitioner sated, that
he Wa3 aware he could not expect any personal
redress from the House of Commons, but hoped,
tktat from his case the House might see the ne-
cessity of adopting measures to prevent the offices
of Trustees and Visitors of Schools being united
in the saute person.—The petition was brought
up and read.
Mr. COURTENA'i defended the conduct of the
Trustees, and moved that the petition be re-
jected.
Mr. GRENFRI,L expressed his snrprize that the
tinie of the House should have been wasted by
this discussion. He had himself been in the
neighbourhood of Exeter, anti heard only one
opinion on this subject—oamely, that Dr. Lein-
pliere had been properly removed, as he was
ruitt-
ing the school.
Mr. littouonam spoke in favour of the petition.

Lord GRAVgi defended the conduct of the Trus-
tees, ancrsaid they had acted in the best way to
support the interests of tie school.
WILBEaI'ORCH said, he was sore the House
would not think its time wasted in attending to
the complaint of a man of high literary character,
who represented hintseif to have been so ill-used.
lie understood, that under the auspices of Dr.
Lempriere, the school at one time had increased
three fold.—He was informed that, by the Bill
of his Noble Friend (Lord Castlereagh) now be-
fore the House, a remedy was provided for stieh
a case as this, and to .prevent the abuses likely to
happen when the offices of visitor and trustee
woe united in the same person. - lie had been
requested to undertake this petition by a person
of the highest character in the kingdom. 'the_
Statement of the petitioner made it appear that
the diminution in the number of scholars hod been
occasioned, not by his misconduct, hut by that of
;he Trnstecs. It Was of itmucose consequence
ant the .seminaries (if education "in this country
~.1(ould he properly regulated. Ilea Was actt:

showi►tg that the state of the law was not such as
it ought to be, and therefore worthy the attention
of the House..

Lord CASTLEREAGU said, if the petition had
prayed for an immediate remedy, then no diffi•
culty could have arisen. - Jut the truth was, that
the twtition contained an ex-parte charge against
the Trustees, on which the House would have no-
opportunity of coining t(l'a decision or investiga-
tion. Therefore, he did think it unfair to allow
the petition to lie on the Table. The Bill before
-the-House would provide against the abuses ails,
lug from the combination of the offices of visitors
and trustees in the same person.
Mr. WiLtirutFouca explained.--The petition
was then rejected without a division.

necessary to remark, and to which the particular attention
of the public should be called, viz. the protection afforded
to the English Creditor under the French Government—the
free 'importation of Corn—the Currency and the Sinking
Fund. First, the Government preferring to receive payment
from France for the Fiend' prisoners supported in this country
during the war, which amounted to double the sum claimed
by the English Creditors on the French Funds, was, doubt-
less, an impolitic Measure : not in as much as two pounds
are better than one, for that is obvious to every man ; but it
tendered a pernicious temptation for persons to speculate in
foreign loans, by holding. out an assurance that the nation
would become a sort of guarantee for the just fulfilment of
French engagements, by making the Stockholders obleets of
State consideration in any future negoCiation, provided their
property should again be confiscated. Ultimately, perhapi,
the investments made in the French Funds may not he.un-
favourable to the English ; as that-nation which borrows at
large interest, like a man a:pi takes up money by granting
annuities, is sure to experience the ultimate inconveni nee,
and, in like manoer, a future benefit way probably result to
the Englsit creditor: but we want the capital at home. the
privation of which has already been generally and severely
felt in the market. Secondly, the free importation of Corn
is not .to be v,essted as a party, or 'Ministerial, measure ; fur
t heropposition sopported the principle as st: en nously as the
Ministry. ladetd the Ministry seemed inching: to shut the
ports, or to restrict the importation to higher prices than
those at which they were fixed—)et wished to avoid being

nrircti tv viercion, to r.cpsess the d public opinion
on a unenpure to much in its con.equences to be deplored.
Thirdly, the reduction of Curreney, win reverting to Cast.

Payments, are questions ‘vhicli have almost exclusively ori-
