CHRISTENING at NEWBATTLE ABBEY

On Monday.last the infant daughter of the
Marquees of LOTMAN, born on the 19th of July,
the happy and auspicious day of " his MAJESTY'S
Coronation," was christened at Newbattle Abbey
by the name of GEORGINA AUGUSTA. The cere-
mony was performed by the Rev. ARCHISAL.D
ALISON, Prebendary of Sarum, &c.

Sponsors—The King.
Caroline, Duchess of Richmond:
- Catherine, Duchess of Wellington:
Proxies The Marquess of Lothian.
The Countess of Haddington:
Viscountess Melville.

There were resent—The Marchioness of Lothian, l'iscoun t
Melville, Sir Thomas and Lady Bradford, the Earl of Ancram,
Lords SchOmbeig' Henry, Charles, Mark, and Frederick Kerr;
Ladies Isabella, Elizabeth, Harriet, Frances, Anne, and Geor-
gina Augusta Kerr; Mr. Dalrymple and other persons of
distinction.

Casks of ale and other liqtiors having been pre-
pared, the noble Marquis joined the party, and,
after expressing the delight he felt in seeing him-
self surrounded by so many of his Majesty's good
and loyal subjects, drank" God bless the King,
and confound all his enemies, whether abroad or
at home." This was followed bk three times four
cheers, amidst the general acclamations of the
multitude, and a feu de joy° from the permanent
staff of the Edinburgh militia, whilst the military
band struck up " God save the King."

Immediately after the ceremony, the Colliers'
Society, accompanied by their wives and chil-
dren, as al4o the 'Newhattle and Easthouses So-
ciety of Youths, With their respective banners
flying, passed by the windows of the Abbey, in
profession. preceded by two regimental bands of
music. They then formed in the avenue, where
they were met by a great portion of the popula-
tion.of the parish.

Breakfasts, dinners, balls, and entertainments
of different kinds, were given on this occasion
at the Abbey, and in different parts of the
parish, to celebrate the great and happy event of
his Majesty's coronation, viz.—
A dinner for all the tenantry ; a dinner for the
serjeants, corporals; and drummers of the Edin-
burgh militia ;—a dinner at Easthouses for the col-
liers, and other dependents, of which last up-
wards of 400 persons partook. At these dinners
the following, amongst many other toasts, were
drank :
The" King," and confusion to all his enemies, with three
times four cheers (all the rest with threes, or three times three).
The " Irish Nation," and especially die Lord Mayor, Cor-
poration, and population of the city of Dublin, for their enthu-
siastic reception of his Majesty.
The " Land of Cakes ;" and may his Majesty soon honour
the country by coming to taste them.
" Auld Reeky," and the Provost and Magistrates of_ Edin-

burgh.
" John Bull, and the loyal people of England."
4' Right Honourable Lady Georgina Augusta Kerr."
" Marquis and Marchioness of Lothian, and all the Lothian
family."
The " Glorious 19th of July, the day of his Majesty's
Coronation."

At nine o'clock these parties adjourned, for an
interval, to see the fire-works on the hill near the
Roman Camp, under the_ direction of O'Neil,
fire-work-maker, in Edinburgh. These consisted

principally of repeated discharges of rockets, se-
veral dozens in each flight, and tin "^-"-I-
-lat;oo. or tserigai lignts, which illuminated the
whole country for mites around..
At the different tables, it was announced, that
with a view to the comforts of the poor, and to
impress the minds of the parishioners with the
recollection of the great and interesting circum-
stances of the coronation,—the following dona-
tions would be issued on the sth day of Novem-
ber next, by the Minister and Elders of the
parish of Newbattle, under the direction of
the Marchioness :—one hundred cart loads of
coals ; 100 bolls of meal ; 500 yards of flannel
and blanketting ; and donations to each of the
youths' societies. Words cannot do justice to
the festivities of the day and night ;—not a dis-
contented spirit, not a mourning habit to be seen
from one end of the parish to the other. It was
an epidemical fever of loyalty which raged
throughout, lighting up the countenances of men,
women, and children, and bursting forth occa-
sionally-in cheers, shouts, and huzzaing in ho-
nour of the King, sufficient to rouse from their
graves the sleepiwg monks of the old monastery.--

DREADFUL EARTHQUAKE.—Batavia Journals
of the 28th of April give an account of a terrible
earthquake which took place on the 29th of De-
cember last, on the south coast of Celebes. It
did immense damage, especially at Boelxkomba,
where the sea rose several times to a prodigiwa3
height, and then falling with incredible rapidity,
alternately deluged and left the-shore, destroy.
ing all the plantations from Bontain to Boelze-
komba. Many hundred persons have lost their
lives. The fort of Boelmkornba was much da-
maged, that of Bontain less so.

DAILY EXTRACTS -FROM THE ►IORNING PAPERS,

Septembcr 18.

[THE •TIMES.I
Letters from Odessa, dated the 21st ult., were
received yesterday. Their tone is.pacilic, though
it was known there that the army under the coin—
mand of Wittgenstein was taking a, position
nearer to the Pruth, and that the Turkish force
which had been acting in Walachia. and Molda-
via was concentrated•at Jassy, prepared for an
attack should the Russians pass -the froutier.
Some contracts,. conditional on• the actual,com-
mencement of hostilities, -had been entered into
-at Odessa for the supply of the Russian artriy-7-,H
a measure of precaution which had become indeed
one of absolute necessity, as it was well known
that the Turks had collected allthe grain that was
still left in the.devastated•provinces'of WalaChia
and Moldavia into the fortresses. The movement
of WittgenstEin's force was considered in itself no
reason for doubting the continuance of 'peace,
because it was the, necessary result of Baron
St.to,7onoff's having quitted Constantinople, and
could not have arisen from any communication
with St. Petersburgb. • Accounts. from 'the Rus-
sian capital had been . received, through the
medium of extraordinary couriers, to the 14th:
of August, but without leading, to any certainty'
whether the snbmission of the Porte had been'
accepted. Baron S.trogonoff remained at Odessa,
waiting the final orders of his- Court.

[MORNING POST.
The contents of the French Papers are more
pacific than usual. Contradiction, however,
still forms their leading character, and until we
shall have the Russian Manifesto duly authenti-
cated from St. -Petersburgh, it will be impos-
sible to form any decisive opinion with respect
to the issue of the pending arr,angements. The
enemies to Grecian independence exult in this
state of indecision. It enables them to riot in
the luxury of hope without the fear of com-
mitting themselves too far, or of encountering
positive contradictions. And what is the nature
of the hope which they entertain ? Is it con-
sistent with the generous character of British
feeling ? Is it founded on considerations of hu-
manity ? Does it object to war, because war
sweeps away the generations of. men ? Or does
it fight the battles of the oppressed and antici-
pate their triumph ? No ; it is a hope alien to
that spirit hich made England contend for years
against the "enslavers of the world, in order to
Creak its thraldom. It is a hope,hostile to hu-
manity and justice. It has no sympathy but for
the oppressor. It would disarm the victim
,which turns round to struggle with its assassin ;
:.nil when called upon to justify the deed, would
array policy against. .feeling—interest 'against
national honour, and the legitimacy of the Ko-
ran against the usurpation of the G'ospel,!
If this be a British hope, then the character
of Britons is changed: " the salt of .the earth
has lost its savour," and evil is become our
good. Let it not be imagined, however, that be-
'v. rlsnot, Irilel wish that
Turkey should not be molested ip the enjoyment
of a power wlch she has used and uses still
with so much~ harmlessness and moderation, we
are the blind and stubborn advocates of'war, for
the mere sake of war, or even for that of inflict-
ing merited chastisement. If the Emancipation
of Greece, the Supremacy of the Christian Reli-
gion, and the security of Europe from the influx
of Barbarians, can be attained by other means
than war, let peace between Russia and Turkey
prove eternal. But if those objects are to be sa-
crificed as the price of peace, we have no hesita-
tion in saying that war ought to be preferred.

[BRITISH PRESS.]
We have understood that the Ministers enter-
tain a suspicion that the obstacleS so perseveringly.
opposed by the people on the day of the Queen's
funeral, to the progress 'of the procession along
the route prescribed by the Ministers, owed their
origin and effect to the plans and suggestionS of
Sir Robert Wilson; and upon this suspicion,
Without inquiry, and partieularly without afford-
ing to the suspected individual an opportunity,
of denying Or refuting the suspicion, the Minis-
ters belie- proceeded to punishhim in the severest
manner. This• matter was noticed, as we are
informed, in a very singular way on Saturday
last at Hammersmith, 'where a meeting of
Magistrates was held for the purpose of
-granting licenses of publicans.' The Mao-is-
trates were It. Cleure, Esq. S. Sketchley,
J., Hanson, Esq. and (specially) 11.;ilirnie, Esq.
—We have heard that some difficulty was expe-
rienced on the renewal of the annual licenses by
those publicans:who were suspected to be attach-
ed to her late -Majesty, or in anyway connected
with the popular feeling of . respect paid to her
memory on the day of her funeral. One of the
publicansin particular -was subjected to a rigo-
rous examination touching a meeting that was
held at his: house on the evening previous to.the
day of her Majesty's funeral, and at .which, as
the Ministers 'were informed, Sir Itobert Wilson
had attended. The tavern-keeper declared that
Sir Rob. Wilson had not been in his house; that
the meeting was,, in the. fullest extent of .the
word, a public one ; and, as a proof of it, some of
the Gentlemen connected with the public 'Press
attended, and reported the. proceedings. This
statement the tavern-keeper was obliged to attest
upon oath... Another person is said to have hien
-examined upon .the same subject, and an,intima-
tion was given that some further proceedings
-would be had respecting it. A sense of justice
would have taught the Ministers to have withheld
this severe expression of their displeasure to-
wards Sir Robert Wilson until the result:of. their
farther proceedings had clearly sliewn how far
their -suspicions of his conduct Were justified by
truth. • '

[Mo CIMINO CHRONICLE.] ' •
Our Dublin Correspondent is very sanguine
respecting the continuance of the cairn which his
Majesty's visit is said to, have produced in Ire-
land. We agree with him that if this calm con-
tinue) the arts of peace may be expected to make

great progress in that fine country, ana . that,
affording so many inducements to English ca-.
pitalists, it is not to he t.tpliosid that Ireland, if:,
her internal tranquillity were established beyond'
all doubt, would be passed over by' wealthy and
enterprising meg; they would settle in it, and
it would !apidly advance in civilization, in-com-
fort. and- independence."—We must, howeverl
confess that we have great misgivings as to
the continuance of a tranquillity Which ,is ctt
founded on the removal of the old grom:Yof
hostility; but, however this may be, there can
be.no question that tranquillity would soon be
followed.' by the proSperity of Ireland. The
Irish Journalists are in the habit of declaiming,
largely against absentee Ship, and as to the im-
possibility of Ireland. prospering whilst so
great a portion of the rents of the country is
consumed here. For our parts we .have never
been able to see much 'in these :grievances.—
Scotland for a long time • after the Union
teemed also with declamations against the
very same grievances, but the . improvement
which took place, in spite of the removal of
the Parliament and the gentry to London, af-
forded the best refutation of thenf. Adam Smith
even went so far as to shew that a.neighbour-
hood was often injured, instead of being bene-.
kited, by a great Lord's taking up his. residence
in it. “ The inhabitants of a village,". hefsays,
" it has sometimes been observed, after having
made considerable progress in manufactures, have
become idle and poor in consequence of a great
Lord's having taken up hiS residence in their
neighbourhood." He attributes on this principle
the improvement of Edinburgh to the very causes
Ivhich- are supposed to threaten the destruction,
of Dublin. "' The- idleness," he says, " of
the greater pare of the people, who- are main-
tained by the -expence of revenue, corrupts,
it is probable,'
,the industry of those who
ought to be maintained by the employment of
capital, and renders it less advantageous to em-
ploy a capital there than in other places. There
was little trade or industry in Edinburgh before

e Union. When the Scots Parliament was no

longer to be assembled in it, when it ceased to
be the necessary residence of the principal No-
bility and Gentry of Scotland, it became a city
of some trade and industry."—Whether the em-
pire of declamation will be followed in Ireland,
as it was in-Scotland, by that of sober reflection
and inquiry, remains to be seen. Hitherto, it
must be owned, the national talent has taken an
unfortunate direction, for which the best apology
is to be found in the distracted and unsettled
state of the country.

[NEW TIMES.]

The Committee of the Rez,imental Fund o

the Life Guards have, with a delicacy that does
them honour, declined the subscription for the
wounded soldiers. It is gratifying to behold this
race of generous sentiment between the contri-
butors on the one hand and the military on the
other. Genuine loyalty prompted the subscrip-
tion, less as a pecuniary reward, than as a testi-
mony of admiration for men who evinced such
forbearance and humanity, and had been the
objects of such illiberal calumny. The British
soldier receives with delight the proof that his
conduct is satisfactory to his_spuntrymen ; but
that prodt has been sufficiently given by the
promptitude and liberality of the subscription :
he therefore declines accepting any money, de-
claring that he is fully satisfied with the pecu-
niary piovision made for him by law ; and that
he desires no other reward for doing his duty,
than the approbation of his King and Country.
