On Sunday and Monday, the 6th and 7th instant, that fine
regiment of cavalry, the Greys, (Scotch) arrived safely in this
city; itf 71. transports; from Waterford ; they sailed the pre-
vious Thursday. Divisions have since proceeded on their route
to Biriningham and Coventry. They were quartered here a
short time previous to the battle of Waterloo, where they add-
ed to their former laurels. For sobriety and respectable de-
meanour,they are as much distinguished as for gallantry.—

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY 12.

BLASPITEAIY AND SEDITION.
THE KING V. MARY ANNE CAItLILE.

Mrs. M. A. Carlile (sister of R. Carlile, late of Fleet-
street) appeared in Court this morning, and after hearing read
two. indictments preferred against her, for having published
certain false and scandalous libels on the 10th and 12th March
last, against the Government and Religion of the Country,
pleaded not, guilty thereto. It was then intimated to her that
the trials would come on at the Nisi Prius sittings after Term
'at Guildhall, London.
THE QUEEN.
THE KING V. THE REV. R. EL.;COW.

A rule Nisi for a criminal information was obtained last
Term by Mr. Brougham against the defendant; •a Clergyman
of Liverpool, for a libel on her Majesty the Queen.
Yesterday Mr. PARKE was partly heard against the rule.
He contended that, proceeding by criminal information, the
party was bound, however illustrious in rank, to put in affida-
vits, contradicting the truth of the libellous allegation—that
Was not done in the present case, and he contended therefore
that the rule must be discharged. In support of his proposi-
tion he cited the case of the King against Miles, and several
other cases, in all of which it Was heid necessary to have excul-
patory affidavits.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY being obliged to leave, the Court de-
ferred further proceeding till this day, when Mr. Brougham
was to be heard in support of the rule, but the Court did not
enter upon it on account of the number of motions for new trials
which were heard, and which occupied the whole of the day.—
Adjourned at four o'clock.

BENSLEY V. BIGNOLD.
This was an action by Messrs. Bensley, the printers, against
the late Secretary of the Norwich Union Fire and Life Office,
to recover their demand for printing a pamphlet on the defen-
dant's account. At the trial before the Chief Justice at the•last
London Sittings, the plaintiff had a verdict, With liberty to the
defendant to move to enter a,nonsuit.

Mr. GURNEY, for the defendant, now accordingly moved to
enter a nonsuit, on the ground that the plaintiffs having substi-
tuted the names of other persons on the first and last pages of
the pamphlet in question, as printers, instead of their own, con-
trary to the 39 Geo. c. 79, s. 27, they could not recover in this
action, and he cited several analogous cases.
The COURT thought the question worthy of further consi-
deration, and therefore granted a Rule Nisi.

The Portrait of THOMAS lIAT.L, Esq. (the
founder of the Sacramental Lecture, and the donor of the Gold
Chain now worn by the Deputy Mayor of Norwich), which was
presented by John Taylor and Edward Taylor, Esqrs. at the
last Assembly, is placed in the Common Council Chamber of
tha.t. City.

FOR THE SUN.

ROMAN. CATHOLIC.

Though the claim of these people to a share
in the government of this Protestant country, is
for a time repelled-, yet, as we have no sufficient
security against its renewal, to quiet our minds
upon the subject, it may be wise to keep it still
in view ; and calmly to consider it, while we have
leisure, in all its bearings. We shall certainly
see no reasons for security in any of the aspects
under which it can be, contemplated. I have
been careful to superscribe this article ROMAN
CATHOLICS ; because Conceding to them the un-
qualified title of Catholic's is of very evil tenden-
cy. I know that this is chiefly done through
indolence, for the sake of a shorter appellation
and has been done for no better reason, even in
the preamble of the Bill submitted to the Par-
liament. But it ought not to be done, because
they take advantage of it, to consider us as not
Catholics; which itldeed, by giving them that
title, we seem indirectly to admit. We are Ca-
tholics as much as. they are Catholics and so is the
general body of the Greek Church also, uncatho-
licized only by the arbitrary sentence of the See
of Rome. All these are members, of the general
or CATHOLIC Cnu exit of Christ, though differing
in the purity of their practices from various causes ;
yet all holding the fundamental doctrines of faith
in Christ, and the hope of salvation through his
atonement. We talk of Schism, and apply the
term to the more trifling subdivisions of the
Catholic Church, but, in fact, the only great
Schismatic body is the See of Rome. It arrogates
all power to itself, and creates effectual Schisms,
or divisions in the body of Christ, by cutting off
from its communion all who refuse to admit the
peculiar doctrines which it has happened to
adopt. There is no other schism. We consider
the Church of Rome as a true Church, though in
many points corrupt. We derive our orders
from it, and exclude it from our communion.—
They have excluded themselves. The declara-
tion of Elizabeth to the Roman Catholic powers
who interceded for the English Papists, truly
said"" there was no new faith propagated in
England,—no religion set up, but that which
was commanded by our Saviour, practised by the
primitive Church, and unanimously approved by
the fathers of the best antiquity." `—We, there-
fore, condemn not the Papists. We think that
they may and do find salvation, under all their
disadvantages, and we know that they have, and
always have had, much of real piety among them.
But this is not reciprocal. They condemn us in
the mass. We are all heretics, destined, unless
we recant, to everlasting punishment ; and if tole-
rated, from imperious circumstances, in certain
situations, yet undeserving of the smallest tole-
ration, and fit only to be admonished by fire
and faggot. We are detestable in their sight,
and always must be, so long as they consider
us as rebels against God's Vicegerent, and
possessing neither Church, nor Priest, nor Sacra-
ment. This is the grand difference, and the in-
surmountable reason why, though Protestants
may safely be employed in Popish Governments,
the indulgence cannot be reciprocal. We lament
the errors of the Papists, but we curse them not.
We regal d their church as corrupts erroneous in
many points, and even idolatrous, but right in
fundamentals, and still a part of the Catholic
Church. Roman, indeed, in their corruptions,
but Catholic in the true part of their faith. Our
Church they consider as wholly reprobate and
abominable. They cannot, if they would, do
other than wish its extinction. For it is in their
eyes,.a-blot in the page of Religion, worse than
Mohammedanism. We only wish them reformed,
they wish us destroyed : and both with equal
piety of intention. The result of this state of
things is, that a Roman Catholic must, in every
situation, feel himself bound in conscience to un-
dermine, counteract, and if possible, to ruin any
Protestant Establishment. What else can he
feel towards those whom he considers as A po-
states from the true Church, and the declared
enemies of God ? It is in vain to attempt con-
cealing these things from ourselves. They must
be so, as long as Rome retains her high preten-
sions, and her Priests and Laity submit obe-
diently to her decrees. Tell us not then what
they will do, or will not do. We know what
they must always do, so long as they style us
trEn ITICS. We know what they have always
clone, not through malignity of mind, but from
the imperious command of conscience.

THE DUKE or WELLINGTON.-It having been
intimated that the illustrious hero of Waterloo
would, probably, visit Lancashire in the course
of this summer, a letter has been addressed to
his Grace, repeating the invitation to a public
dinner, which had been conveyed to him when
at Combermere, by a deputation from Warring-
ton., His Grace has condescendingly replied,
that, should he visit that county, he " will cer-
tainly avail himself of- the invitation." We can
confidently state that the Noble Duke has ho-
noured the-Warrington Pitt Club by allowing his
name to be enrolled amongst its members ; and
that a medal of the club has been unanimously
voted to his Grace, which it is intended shall
be presented to him in a box of English heart of
oak.—(Liverpool Courier.)

Yesterday the Rev. THOMAS MILLS, one of his MAJESTY'S
Chaplains in Ordinary, was instituted by the Lord Bishop of
Lownorr, tg the Rectory of Little Benny, in the county of Es-
sex, on the Presentation of NATHANIEL BARNARDISTON,
Esq. of the Rycs Lodge, in that Parish, void by the Resigna-
tion of the Rev. THOMAS WEIGHT.

FlRE.—Yesterday morning, at one o'clock, a
fire broke out in the second floor of the sugar-
house of Mr. TROGLOPE Back-lane, St. George's
in the East, which burned with incredible fury.
At half-past two the whole of the building fell
in with a tremendous crash, excepting the North
front, breaking all the windows and doing con-
siderable damage to an adjoining house. Much
fear was entertained for the safety of Mr. JOHN-
SON'S timber-yard adjoining, from the great
gnantitY of flakes of fire which fell into the yard.
But the great exertions of the firemen prevented
a further extension of the conflagration : the loss
is considerable.' Happily no lives were lost.
