CORRESPON DENCE.

(We should have declined to insert the follow-
ing Correspondence, from a sense of political duty,
io these levelling and seditious times, if it had not
been freely circulated, partly in print, through-
out the County of Buckingham, and been the
subject of general conversation. Nay, the sub-
ject has even been introduced in a Satirical Novel*,
and it is surprizing that it has not before found
its way into a Public Journal.)

" Buckingharn House, April 6, Isis.
t 4 The Marquess of Buckingham returns to Mr.
I.`,lsou his very ill judged and improper Letter.
Ihe Marquess of Buckingham was induced in
writing to Mr. Nelson to pay an attention which
he felt was due to Mr. Nelson's situation of
Bailiff of the Borough of Buckingham. Lord
ISlckingliarn did not require the insult which Mr.
Nei on has offered in return, to prove to him how
entirely misplaced any attention would have been
towards Mr. Nelson individually. The Marquess
of Buckingham only thinks it necessary to say,
that k, hen Mr. Welson states him to have treated
the Corporation of Buckingham in a " gross and
illiberal manner," Mr. Nelson states an untruth.
" Mr. Nelson."
