propositions made."

The Times of this day affects to find what it
styles an amusing specimen of logic," in The
Sun of yesterday, because we said the appoint-
ment of Marquis WELLusLEY, who " is known
to be favourable to the Roman Catholic Claim,"
and of Mr. GOUj,BURN, as his Secretary, who is
known to be adverse to them, may be considered

" as a measure of conciliation."—We cannot per-
ceive any logical inconsistency in the statement.
The co-operation of two able men may lead to
measures of conciliation, while they have both
the interests of the Empire in view, and neither
would propose measures without due consulta-
tion, and the concurrence of each other.

In another column we-have inserted, from the
Chester Courant, some very just and pertinent
reflections on the judgment pronounced by the
Court of King's Bench on, the late Mayor of

intended to have made some for-

ther observations on the same important and in-
teresting occurrence, but are prevented by the
press of other matter. We participate, however,
heartily, in the feelings of the friends to Consti-
tutional Liberty, at the blow which has thus been
given to those corrupt practices which endanger
the rights of the people and the security of the
State.

DOVER, DEC. 3.—Soon after nine this morn-
ing our boatmen observed the Dasher steam
packet, and several passage vessels, stepring from
Calais for Dover, it then blowing strongly from
the Southward—the wind shortly increased to a
gale, which has continued the whole day. The
Dasher and other vessels persevered for a long ,
time in their exertions to make Dover, but the
violence of the gale baffled their efforts, and
compelled them to bear up, and we imagine the
Dasher must have run into Margate Roads, as 'I
the heavy sea which a southerly or south-west
wind causes at the mouth of Ramsgate Harbour
must have made it too hazardous for her to have
attempted that port. Her Royal Highness the
Princess AUGUSTA was on board the Dasher, and
as Mr. CuAnLus WitionT, of the Ship Tavern,
had received orders to have apartments and
horses in readiness, every preparation had been
made to receive her Royal Highness. A consi-
derable degree of anxiety and interest had been
excited in the town, in the expectation of her
Royal Highness landing here, and a congratula-
tory and loyal Address from the town had been
prepared to present to her Royal Highness on
her return to her native land. Whatever may
be thought to the contrary, and although some
recent events, in which the respectable part of
the inhabitants took no part, may have conveyed
a different impression, a more loyal town, and
one more attached to the House of Brunswick,
than the town of Dover, is not to be found
throughout his MAJESTY'S dominions.
RANtsGATE, DEC. 3. The Dasher steam
packet, with her Royal Highness the Princess
A UGUSTA and suite, has arrived here from Calais.
Her Royal Highness landed at 4' P. M., and pro-
ceeded immediately for Sittingbourne.

LORD KENYO N.-In justice to this Nobleman,
is is proper to state our full persuasion, arising,
indeed, from positive knowledge, that in giving
his sanction to the origin of the Evening
Paper intitled The Tcue Briton, his Lord-
ship was not actuated by, any pecuniary. views,
but by the most disinterested regard to the
welfare of our Establishment in Church and
State, which he doubtless at that time considered
as being in a state of imminent danger. Without
entering into any of the disputes which have
arisen relative to the Paper alluded to, we feel
sincere regret that the name of this respectable
Nobleman should have been brought forward on
the occasion.

Letters from Gibraltar of the 12th ult. state,
that a French 74. gun ship passed through the
Straits on the morning of that day to the east-
ward, supposed-to be on her voyage to reinforce
their Squadron in the Archipelago.
Letters from Patras of the Ist ult. were re-
ceived yesterday, which confirm the fall of Tri-
polliza, but give a different account of the man-
ner in which the place was conquered. They
say that the Albanian Turks, who formed its
garrison, unfaithful to their trust, had delivered
it up to the Greeks. \V hether accurate or not,
this account obtained entire credit at Patras,
where they in consequence deemed it prudent to
disband and send away froth the place all the
Albanian Turks in the citadel. By this step the
garrison of Patras was so much weakened, that
resistance to the Greeks:was no longer contem-
plated ; and they had made preparations to de-
stroy the fortress, which they were prepared to
quit immediately on the approach of the enemy.
All the inhabitants, likewise, held themselves in
readiness to leave Patras at a moment's notice.

Letter:;, dated the 25th of October, were re-
ceived yesterday from Constantinople. They re-
peat, in positive terms, the statement in the French
Papers, that Persia had declared war against
Turkey, and add, that advantages had been
gained over the Turks near Bagdad, and also in
the vicinity of Erzerum. No intelligence had
arrived there from Petersburgh since the return
of Baron Strogonoff, but all apprehension of a
war with Russia hid subsided. The contest
with the Greeks and the Persians was likely,
without the interference of Russia, to find suffi-
cient employment for the troops of the Porte.
An account, said to be official, has been trans-
mitted from Constantinople, announcing the cap-
ture and destruction of a fleet of Greek ships by
the Turks, in a naval action oft* Patras ; but this
is supposed, and with some colour of probability,
to relate to the vessels lying at anchor in the har-
bour of Galaxidi—an affair which has been al-
ready narrated, and which bore no semblance to
a sea-fight, as most of the ships had been aban-
cloned by their crews, and the remainder made
little or no resistance,

ported that his MAJESTY is to dine with the

CHAMBERLAIN on Saturday last, for the whole
of the Coronation decorations which adorned
