COURT OF CLAIMS.

Saturday the Court of Claims sat in the Painted Chamber, to
'consider further of all claims made, or to be made, for the per-
formance of services at his Majesty's Coronation. Business
commenced at two o'clock, with the presentation, by the Re-
corder of London and the City Remembrancer, of a petition
from the Lord Mayor, praying for leave to substitute one or
two names in the place of others in the 'Lord Mayor's petition
to the Court of Claims last year, for the assignment of a place
for himself and twelve citizens at the coronation festival, in
Westminster Hall. One or two alterations in last year's list had
occurred by deaths, and the present application was to fill up
the blanks.

When the Recorder had handed in this petition, twelve War-
dens of the Liveries of the City of London made their appear-
ance with another petition, stating they were the Wardens for
the present year of the Liveries named in the Lord Mayor's
petition of last year, and they therefore claimed the privilege
of having their names inserted instead of those already set down,
and who were the retired, not'the present Wardens.
The Earl of HARUOWBY said, that that Court knew nothing
of who were or who were not Wardens of the City of London
Liveries, nor had any persons, as Wardens, & right of presence
at the Coronation. The Lord Mayor, ex officio, had a right,
and his Lordship was also to beaccompanied by twelve citizens,
but the latter it was, for him, not the Court, to nominate.
The claim, therefore, of the twelve wardens for the present
year was rejected.
The claims of Lord GWYDIR, as Deputy Chamberlain, act!
Lord ORMOND, as Chief Butler of Ireland, to attend at the Co-
ronation, were then put in by the respective Lords, and refer-
red to the King in Council.
Mr. DY MOKE'S claim to appoint his son, a minor, to per-
' form the office of Champion, was then discussed.
Mr. GASELEE was heard at considerable length, as Counsel.
for Mr. Dymoke, in support-of his claim. The Learned Coun-
sel contended thattcf ancient right, the family of Dymoke were
entitled, as Lord of the Manor of ScriVelsby, tnot only to per-
form the office of Champion at the King's Coronation, but is
case of inability- from sex or situation, as in the present case,
(Mr. Dymoke being a clergyman, and as such unable to offi,
ciate in person as Champion) to appoint a deputy. The Learned
Counsel cited records from the ancient Coronation Rolls in
support of his positions, but admitted that, as here, Mr. Dy-
mpke's son, the proposed deputy, was a minor, he being but
twenty years of age last March, he could not officiate, except by
leave of the King.
The Court was cleared, and on the re-admission of strangers
below the bar, it was announced, that the Rev. Mr. Dymoke
ought to be excused from officiating as Champion, on account
of his being a cleygyman, and that he should be allowed to ap,,
point " a sufficient dephty."
The Court then adjourned until Friday next:

FLANDERS PAPERS.

FROM 310MAYIA, MAY 22.—There have
been great' disputes at Jassy between Pende-
dike, the ,leader of the. Greek troops, and the
Divan,. the former insisting that 11 negociation
with I-brailow should be broken off. He threatened
to take Jim government into Iris own hands,
which Caused great consternation ; the Boyar still
remaining attempted to leave the town, but the
Greeks would not permit him, and arrested the
Moldavian Deputies on their return from Ibrai-
low, to put an end to all communications
with the Pacha. Things were in, this -un-
settled .stale at. Jassy till the 16th, when news
arrived that the Seraskier . of. Ibrailow had
on the' 13th unexpectedly arrived at Galacz,
where he -attacked the Greeks by
_land and
water, and totally defeated them.. The Seraskier
Jassuf Pacha had 6,000 men, and 17 gun-boats ;
and the Greeks were all cut. to pieces; only
Captain Thomassy escaped, and -brought the
news of the defeat to Jassy. The Seraskier is
entrenching himself on the 'Danube, where he• ex-
pects the Pacha of Silistria with a corps of 15,000
Turks and 8000 Tartars.

CHILI.

We subjoin a copy of a letter addressed by
Captain SIIIRRIFF, of his Majesty's ship Andro-
mache, to the masters of the British ships Edward
Ellice, Lord Sajfield, and Indian, taken on the
coast. of -Peru, by Lord COCHRANE'S squadrOh.—
By Captain SHIRREFF'S letter it would appear.
that the Chilian Government is acknowledged.by
this Government-7-a circumstance which we be-
lieve was not before generally known. The
American Captain, DowNts, however, treats the
Chilian squadron as enemies, and seizes the Ame-
rican vessels which they may have captured ;
whereas, our Captain only negotiates for their
being • sent to Valparaiso; for adjudication. The
three vessels -above-mentioned arrived there for
that purpose-in the end of February. The Hon.
Captain Spencer, of his Majesty's ship Owen
Glendower, at Valparaiso, wrote, on the
.27th of
February, to,the director, requesting to know the
grounds for the detention of these ships. The
agents to Lloyd's there had protelted against the
seizure of the vessels and cargoes, and in con-
junction with Captain SPENCER, intended to
make every exertion for their liberation : -

" li. M. S. Andromache, off Callao, Bth Jan. 1821.
Gentlemen,---I have to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter of the 22th ult., which the first that has reached me • and
I hare to inform you, that as soon as I am in possession of any
facts to prove the property under your charge (which has been
detained by the Chilian squadron) to be BONA FIDE belonging
to British subjects, .I shall claim it as such. But you must
understand, that as my instructions are particularly explicit in
ordering me to act
.perfectly neutral, I cannot follow. Captain
Downes•plan of seizing your vessels by force, as such an act
would be a declaration of hostilities on my part against the
Chiliati Government, who, as Belligerent Power, have a right
to detain any suspected property, althougo under a neutral ,flag ;
and an attempt to take away by force Would, according to the
Laws'of Nations, condemn it in toto as a prize.
am particular in mentioning these circumstances to you,
as you might otherwise expect more than I, or any other officer,
sliould be able to accomplish. In the mean time I shall protest
against the vessels being detained here, instead of being sent to
Chili for adjudication; as I shall also do of your boats and men
being used for warlike purposes.

Opinion of your •Majestys /our present- situation
may require. Your people, 0 Sire, will be Sa-
tisfied by maintaining with your Majesty that just
and noble harmony. with which they have been
constantly honoured; and which has by them al-
ways been made
.tt duty. But let not strau-
gers interpose between the nation and its chief.
Let-it not be said that their presence is necessary
to enforce obedience, attachment, and fidelity
towards a monarch from a people. who love and
respect him. Let not our laws be disgraced
either with the blood of our enemies or of our
brethren. in a word, let your Majesty's throne
have with it the hearts of your own subjects, and
not seek for support from the swords of invaders.

We confide, Sire, these loyal wishes to that

to him at this period, and told him that " the
most infamous reports were circulated against
him:"—it was Grimm who disseminated these
infamous stories, not only in France, but alSo in
other countries: His Correspo2idence proves this
fact in glaring colpUrs..
It is very-painful to me to find the name of
D'Alembert in thelist of Rousseau's enernies, I
I wish it was in my po‘ter to efface it, hut truth
forbids me. D'Alentbert " afterwards: repeated
.of the prejudices he had raised against. Rous-
seau." His repentance, does him honour; but
what. do -you think was the cause of his hosti-
lity to Jean .Jacques • Rdusseau had pub-
lished his Lettres sur des Spectaf;les, width
,D'Alembert fancied he -was bound to answer.
This refutation was not very successful, but whose
fault was that? It was surely. not. Rousseau's
fault that his Letter was not better answered ;
and yet he Was to suffer for it. D'Alembert was
naturally of. a pacific temper ; but he had at.
Ferney a brother, who was fond of entering- the
lists, and whom we too frequently obr-ve, in
his Correspondence, exciting the nervous
irritabi-
lity of his brother at Paris, who in truth ought
not to have been roused by this stimulant.
And you also, M. Suard ! The contagion
must have been subtle indeed, to have affected
one of the best and kindest of men. It was
M. Suard who translated the Diatribes of Hume,
and who annexed to his translation a. preface
very injurious to J. J. Rousseau. This fact is
attested by the best
.of his female friends ; and
yet M. Suard had no cause of complaint against
Jean Jacques, who scarcely knew
.him by name.
The literary distance which separated them was
greater than would be imagined. Is. it not,
therefore, rather surprising that an academician of
such amiable manners and inoffensiVe character
should have taken part in a quarrel in which he
was not at all concerned ? But he was the friend
of the enemies of Jean Jacques ; and this circum-
stance accounts for his conduct.

Thanks to the researches of M. de Mussey-
Pathay, Rousseau is now fully acquitted, if not
of the faults which he committed and of which he
accuses himself, at least of the 'calumnious
charges imputed to him by the philosophers. It
was with this intention, as I imagine, that M. de
Mussey-Pathay wrote his History; those readers
who love truth, and search for it with imparti-
ality, will admit that he has attained his object.
The evidence he has adduced in suppo'rt Of his
opinion is so weighty, that those only .will.rise
from the perusal of his wort; unconvinced who
have determined to-continue in error.

THE CONVENT.
The eye of Heaven beholds no fairer flower
Than Beauty blooming in religion's bower ;
But Pity weeps, and angels drop the tear;
To mark its wrongs and destiny severe ; •
And sunny smiles of love, and little day,
And dreams of rapture,- hastening to decay,
And all its opening prospects clasli'd with gloom;
And all blossoms shaded by the tomb !
Ah ! not for you, sad sisters of the cell,
Where musing Melancholy, loves to dwell,
And strives to chase the convent's chilling darnp4
And trims with tremblinghunds her vestal lamp,
Ah ! not for you the star of glory shines,
Ripens no brilliant daughter of the mines ;
Blows no fair flower with purple light arrayed,
Sings no sweet warbler of the rural shade ;
Strays no.fond wanderer in the twilight grove,
Breathes no rapt vow or liquid ley-of love ;
But pining sorrow melts the soul to tears,
As fancy paints the joys of other years,
And many a tale is told with tearful eye,
Of man's perfidious love and cruelty,
When burns the taper dimly in the hall,
And still, small voices talk along the wall.
Till even devotion's purer ardours cease
To point the way to.piety and peace.
The vesper bell has shook the cloister'd pile,
And hollow murmurs creep along the aisle.
Low at the sacred shrine the virgin kneels,
The white-roh'd devotee the cross reveals—
Ah ! spare her in that hour, Remembrance ! spare,
And may no sufferings check her rising prayer !
No cherish'd accents tremble on liet. tongue,
No love-sick music mingle with.ber;tong ;
But Heaven one hour of happiness bestow,
For many a sad, long, lingering year of woe.
I knew. thee, Julia, ere that veil of gloom,
Bade on thy cheek the roses cease to bloom,
When thy young heart was tuned to blameless glee,
And every tongue breathed votive sighs to thee.
Fair smiled the morn of life in Arno's vale,
While hope and pleasiirelold their flattering tale ;
And Florio breathed'his sighs of tender love,
And all your.vows were registered above ;
But fraud with avarice censpied to throw
O'er smiling scenes of bliss the shade of woe ;
With too successful power their arts were plied,
Back'd by stern mandates of relentless pride,
And superstition's train, whoSe baleful aid
Dooms life'S-fair flower to wither in the shade.
Then bade thy heart, to love and feeling true,
To Florio and the world a sad adieu ;
Then closed these walls around thee, hapless fair !
The lone abodes of 'penitence and prayer ;
'While sorrowing sisters led thee to the shrine,
And thou wort wedded to a love divine.
