MRS. CLAIk.B.

We have this day continued froni Saturday car
extracts from the Second Edition of •this Lady's in-
teresting book :
I. must here inform the reader,. that Colonel
Pigot's name. having been iniro•luced to the notice
of the. House through the investigation, I felt 'ex-;•
ceedingly anxious to convince my not hav-
ing tvecn the :intentional c4use of it ; and that I
wished him to be convinced, that ,he ranked amongst
those-fr ieuds: whom Lniost esteem. •
" AccOrdingly, a'ked Lord Folkstone •to write
to the Cape of Good Hope, to express my sorrow.
at the, public vise of his name, and that my good
intentions towards him were in n way abated!
" This request will account for the tolloWing let-
ters, which is another'proof "of his Lordship's gOod
opinion of me:—

" August 30, 1809.
" DEAR MADAM—I found your leiter on my ar-
rival in town -yesterday._
_My acquaintance with
Pigot is •so slight, that I think there will be consi-
derableaukwardness in my writing to him on this
subject, and I shall have some difficulty in knowing
what To say to hini. If, however, you still wish
it, send me his address, and I will write to say, that
in every thing I have ever heard you say of him,
you have seemed to consider him as your friend,
and I am totally ignorant of any injury you would,
much more. of any you meant, to do_hirn. I ap-
prehend this would altogether meet your ideas.
" There is scarce any one in town, and I have
heard of nothing stirring. " I hope you and the girls
are well.

" I am, yaur's ever truly,
(Signed) "
.14‘oLKSTONE."
" Mrs. Clarke;Cowes, Isle of Wight."

" Having given the reader eight more letters out
of forty which I have in my pchses,iod, I hope it
will be cleorly teen, that no longer ago than the litter
end o 1 Atign,t• last., which 14 not yet ten *nibs,
Lord Folksione held me in hign and friendly este,Nn,
and I should like to be Informed what his motives
are, for now :thinking otherwise of rne than he did
then ? •

It is true that I am not now employed to pro-
yoke rebellion in the country, and 'that is- the only
visible cause -why his Lordship should have sacrt•
.ficed •me and his ownyeracny and .honoUr I But
of this tact I
am perfettly satisfied; that Lord Folk-
stone.never did a more silly thing in his life than
when he,w tote his last public letter to Col.•Wardle,
of Friday, June 12, .wh:ch must essentially servo
me, and reduce him,- w ah the-thinking and respect-
able part of the nation.
" I am abOu. io introduce to my reader a curious
letter which I found in my iron cites!, full of very.
curious letters, among which I eiitertaio a hope that
1-shall lay tny hand. upon. a .note .df • the Duke of
.Kent's, which I am inclined to think Major Dodd
dropp 'din pulling out- his' handkerchief, -after: he
had talt,,m a 1.1r,;e- portion pf Mr. Lingwot tit's wine,
which he thinks Lam weak enough to pay for'.
" I shell introduce his letter, from Dr:O'Meara,
and than the reader may gave the S.higninary pat of
t what.- credit. he pleases; but, certainly,
Robespierre never did a cooler thing than that which.
is said t; have :istingdiShed *
The read( r wilt see that the lettee is written to
my bruther,•Caln.-Thomson, -who most probably left
it ,•,ith use, N.'he:l I hitd'no idea of its ever.making
a puulicapptarance. •

L7utilin, 29, Frederick street.

" MY DRAR congratulate you. on tl)e vic-
tory Mrs. Clarke hag gained over, the. mushroom
Patriot ; I thiuk we could, him le coup de grace. I
have colleded some curious 'particulaiS of his own
campaign in Ireland; one most horrible, and which
witl be, proved on oath :—One day, during the re-
' bellion;he met a poor man near Ally, with a satchel
on his back, containing an axe, an, auger, a saw,
Nc.Scc.-; he immediately concluded that the poor
man was re6el,having such danegtuns weapons con-
cealed in a sack. In lain the poor man declared
that he was a carpenter; and that, those were his
tails; The could not be convinced, and he
..ordered his head to be sawed off, which was done
on tie spot. - ,• • •

. " I hope Mrs. C. now that she has, passed through
this ordeal trial, %ill have no objeetion to state the
whole truth, for my private and personal friends.
sike told me she did not intend 16 mention my name :
that she was forced by Mr: Wardle to embellish as
she did with respect to me: The blow was: aimed
at the .Establi.3hed Church, to. stab it through 'the
sides of a clergyman. The-Reformists- and Metho-
dists 'being reaped together 'to pull d 01.% n both
Church and State. .

•
" My letters in defence of the Duke were not
mentioned, which was the ground and cause of my
introdudion to him; and his Royal Hig,liness having,
thanked me for writing those letters, I ventured to
ask him for the Chaplaincy of the. Royal Yacnt, and
for which he proinked to apply on my forwarding
to' him a letter of .recommendation from some Bl-
shop,.and which I did from Bath, diteCted to Port-
man-square; this tact 1 wish to have cleared up, to
shew the Archbishop and my friends here.
" Cobbett says I preached at Weymouth, from
under the wing.of Mrs. C. whereas it was the year
before I preached before the. Royal. Family, viz.
1804.. In the microcosm of London, it is difficult
to distinguish ladies under protection from ladies of
fashion '; each of these orders borrows the manners
of the other, and they act their parts as naturally ;
it was no wonder a man of so much simpl:city. was
deceived by illusions,of graceful manners, and
modest discourse.

" The goddess Hecate, who presided over magic
2nd 'enchantmen'ts, was the same with Luna and
Diana. Mrs. C. could personate this divinity with
ease, assuming all her forms, attributes, -atria iliac-
lions, and Mr. 0. assured me she was a widow` n
the faa month of her grief.—The rmsquerade waS
continued by the visits of ladies of fastiion at her
hou,e, and the visiting cards of many 01 high consi-
deration, &c. &c.

" I itrtend being in London in spring, when I
hope to see you; and I shall beglad to get an answer
to this letter.

" When you see Mr. O. give him my best re-
gards.

g
" I am my dear Sir, your's sncerely,
" 0' 1

I. 224 Dec. zßop."
" I opened this lettexr to add, that th• letter of

tnine,• which was found by the Secret Committee,
and which has been so much misrepresented as an
indecent pro.!uction, was an answer to a hoaxing
letter I got from Mrs. C. in which she said st,,
tired of the pumps and vanities .1 IN, wicked
world, &c. &c. That Mary Magdalene was not
more penitent, and entreating that I wou;(1 co nfort
the weak-hearted, and find out for het a cheap and
safe asylum in Ireland., I answered the epistle of
this, witty piece of Eve's flesh in print, and for
which the saints and reformers have' splashed me
with abuie. Mrs, C. got back this letter, and
hope she will pieserve it and the Archbishop's
letter."

The report which was circulated, that Govern-
ment had entered into a comproinl.! w;th Mr
C EBET, not to bring him op fir- judgMent provi•i.
ed be.discontinut,l his Register, is• unfounded. He
will be brought up into the Court of King's Bench

A whole family was lately poisoned at Dresden by

Mr. WILLIAMS, the Vestry Clerk of the parish
of St.. Dunstan's in the West, was found dead in his
bed at three o'clock on Saturday morning. TLe
election of a'suCcessor is
sexpeded to be warmly coo-
tested. The names of several candidates for this
lucrative appointment are already•mentioned. •
As Mr. COBBET, in his defence, on his late trial,
declared, that c! he was the most calumniated tnan
in. the
.world," it -would have become him to avoid
Crilutimiating any :uther person, particularly on that
occasion. He; however, • thought proper, as he
had often done before,
.to drag to the name of Mr.
BoyeLs, a Oentlernan whOse talents and learnn,g
have. been often exerted In the cause of loyalty,
good morals, and every thing dear and interesting to
society, and to associate his name with two persons
' who.haVe been convitted of embezzling the public
money. It is proper therefore to state, that Mr.
JENNY NS, a. Gentleman of vvell-known talents and
res: eaability, in Iris Observations upon the Fourth
.Iteport from the Committee on the Public Expen-
clithre,-as to the conitua of the Commissioners for
Dutch Prizes, though his political opinions differ
from those of Mr. Bow Les, and though he indeed
indulges himself in some severe ietnarks upim. Mr.
BowLEs's literary activity, pays due homage. to the
rectitude of his condo& as one of the. Dutc:. Com-
missioners. Indeed Mr. JENNYNS, has fully de-
monstrated, that all that .has been said against the
.Dutch Commissioners. his been, founded it) mis-
take, ignorance, or malice. Mr. COBBETT, there-
. fore, has no excuse ftir so wantonly introducing the
name of Mr. BOWLES upon the occasion alluded to.
I. But, what must the public think of Mr. CoLuiriTT,
when, they hear that Mr. BOWLE3 -never. gave him
the least cause of offence, bit, o i the contrary, if
we are rightly informed, anu we are disposed to
place full confidence in the information, Mr.
BOwLES, when he thought well of Mr. Conserr,
rendered him -many kind offices, and when he, as
well as the rest of mankind, had too much reason
to chadge his opinion respeCting Mr. Conati:TT, he
never introduced his name in print upon any occa-
sion. But to shew the character of Mr. ConpsTr
in its true light, we shall subjoin a passage which
appeared 'in Mr. YotrKE'l Weekly. Register for last
week; from -a Letter written some years ago by Mr.
COBEETT to a friend, to prove how he once thought
of Mr. BOWLES, whom he has since so often illibe-
rally attacked, and who never gave him any of-
fence
, I have read our friend Bowx.Es's pamphlet with
great attention. I disagree with him on a very ma-
terial point.: Indeed,. I am clearly convinced he is
. mistaken :--BUt his intentions are so good, his
views are so truly, patriotic, his heart is so pertetliy
sound, and his mind is so perfectly virtuous, that I
am resolved never' to utter, Much less to Write; (.1
mean in print), a single -word calculated to give him
pain. His
,moral 'reflections would not have dl r
graced the pen of a JOHNSON. This is his forte."
