WY lily; REGIS.

The last question at issue between the Arch-
deacon of Dortsur, Dr. ENGLAND, and the R rc-
TOR of Wyxr, and WEVMOUTIf, has, at length,
been determined in favour of the Parochial Cler-
gy, as will be seen by the following authentic
account of the proceedings
The long-pending suit, instituted on articles
by Charles Friend, of Wyke Regis, in the Conn-
ty of Dorset, against the Rector and Church-
wardens of the same parish, to show cause why
he, the said Charles Friend, should not obtain a
faculty for a pew in the gallery of their Church,
came to a final hearing before the Consistory
Court at Bland ford, on Saturday the 2 Ith ult.,when
the Rev. Francis Simpson, the Judge, determined
not to grant the faculty, as it was against the
consent of the Minister and Churchwardens, and
contrary to the wishes of the great majority of
the inhabitants ; and directed that the plaintiff,
Friend, should take nothing by his proceedings.
This case had been virtually determined within
the last six months, in the same Court, in favour
of the defendants, in the matter of Mantield, who
applied for a faculty to a seat in his Parish
Church at Dorchester, when tire Judge refused
to grant it, and stated the grounds of his refusal
to be, that " without the previous consent of the
Minister and Churchwardens, no faculty ought
to be granted."
The issue of this suit, of the greatest con-
sequence to parochial Clergy, has excited
considerable interest throughout the Diocese
of Bristol, and is the last of the three im-
portant rights of the officiating Ministers,
which had been attacked, and attempted to be in-
vaded, by one of the Churchwardens of the
parish, and the Archdeacon of the diocese ; but
which have been so ably and so successfully de-
fended by the Rector of Wyke Regis and Wey-
mouth ; to whose exertions, in defence of their
just rights and privileges, the Clergy in general
are much indebted.

The Churchwarden- claimed the custody, and
took possession, of the only key of the Church,
for which, upon his ,refusal to give it up to the
Rector, he was libelled in the Spiritual Court ;
but on the day appointed for trial he confessed
the articles, and paid the costs of the suit. The
Archdeacon, Dr. England, mistaking himself for
the Ordinary, in matters which it has since been
proved did not in the least concern him, inter-
fered, and, at the instance of the Churchwarden,
dictated the manner in which the sacrament
money was to be distributed ; and without send-
ing any previous notice of his intention to the
Rector, visited his Church, and personally gave
away certain pews and sittings in it to the said
Churchwarden and his family, against the con-
sent of the Minister, and the wishes of a great
majority of the parishioners.
Those three valuable objects, the possession of
the key, the distribution of the sacrament money,
and the right of assigning pews, being now ob-
tained, and the points in controversy legally
settled, it is earnestly hoped that all angry feel-
ings may be succeeded by a spirit of love and
true Christian charity.

SPECIAL COMMISSION.
Two Men for the Murder of Mrs
l'orrance.

LIMERICK, DEC. 17, 1821.—The whole of
this day was occupied with the trial of John
McNamara and Thomas "Molly, for the murder
of Mrs. ToartANcr.. The Jury was composed of
persons of the most respectable description, men
of high consideration in the county, most of them
being Magistrates ; and, after the examination of
13 witnesses, whose testimony formed as strong
a chain of evidence as ever yet was exhibited in
.a Court of Justice, the Jury retired, and, having
deliberated about five minutes, they returned
into Court, and delivered their verdict of Guilty,
against both the prisoners.—The two Judges sat
together; the sentence was pronounced by Baron
M'Cr.r.t.r.ANn, in a manner peculiarly impressive
and edifying. lie never recollected so horrid a
murder, so clear a case, and such a body of
evidence, so ably brought before the Court.—
The Learned Judge was so affected, in passing
sentence, that his utterance was stopped for
several minutes. After the sentence was passed,
which appointed the culprits -to suffer death on
Wednesday (this day), the prisoner, 111‘Namara,
exclaimed, " we could expect nothing else from
the county of Limerick bloodhounds." On his
way from the dock to the gaol—says one of our
Correspondents—McNamara called out to the
crowd, " never mind boys, there's enough of us
yef." The case for the Crown was stated by
the SOLICITOR. GLNERAL. It appeared that
Mrs. Toun.tscE was murdered on the 10th of
June last, in consequence of the resistance
made by her and her husband, to a party de-
manding arms at their house, in the Liberties
of Limerick, on the Sth of March last.
Mr. O'GORMAN was Counsel for the pri.
soners. The Court was crowded during the trial.
[From the Cork Intelligencer of Tuesday.]
Yesterday evening a roan named Matthew
Connel was brought into this city, from the
neighbourhood of Kanturk, under a strong escort
of the 22d regiment, charged with taking a gun,
the property of John Boyce, Esq. Ile was com-
mitter by George Purcell and William Allen,
Esqrs. two active Magistrates of this county.
We have unquestionable authority for stating,
that several of those nocturnal depredators who
have infested the neighbourhood of Charleville,
and the borders of the county, adjoining the
county of Limerick, have been arrested and
lodged in the Bridewell at Charleville. We can-
not say more on the subject at present, but shall
in our next give further particulars.
We regret to be obliged to state, that, not-
withstanding the Resolutions entered into by the
Magistracy and Gentry of West Muskerry, in
Macroom, on Thursday last, and the favourable
report given there of the peaceable state of that
part of the county, the spirit of disaffection has
began to make its appearance. On Saturday
night, about thirty gentlemen, in and from the
neighbourhood of Macroom, well armed, patroled
the country some miles round, and met with no
interruption—yet, on the same night, a party of
marandet's were on the alert, and attacked diffe-
rent houses, some of them within two miles of
Macroom, and succeeded in taking arms.
This infringement on the quiet of this hitherto
peaceable district has roused the activity of the
Magistrates and Gentry, and they commenced
yesterday a general search for arms indiscrimi-
nately ; with what effect we have not yet heard ;
but, from the local knowledge and general una-
nimity which prevails there, we have no doubt
but those laudable endeavours will be crowned
with success. There are no troops quartered in
Macroom, though there is a large military force
in this county ; but the necessity for them in
those parts more immediately disturbed, and the
very heavy duty they have to perform, induces
the supposition that few, if any, can be spared.
Letter from the Neighbourhood of Castleder-
mott.—" Some days ago there was a riot in Cas-
tledermott of a very serious aspect, but fortu-
nately put a stop to by the sudden arrival of a
body of one hundred police, horse and foot.
We have every reason to hope that the security
of this district will be kept up by the great at-
tention and activity of our Chief Magistrate, who
has apprehended and committed to Athy gaol a
man charged with having murdered his uncle
some months back in the county of Kilkenny,
and another, supposed to be one of the murderers
of Lieutenant Laurence in th'e Queen's county.
All within this district is well watched, but be-
yond its borders, I understand, there are fre-
quent nocturnal meetings."

We hear that his Grace the Lord Primate re-:-
. .
fused to grant a Faculty to the Rev. Archdeacon
Langrishe, to hold the- Union of Carlow and
Killeshin, with his present Benefice of New-
castle ; in consequence of which he has been
obliged to give up Carlow, and retain only Kil•
leshin. Thus, after being united for two hun-
dred years, these contiguous Benefices are di-
vided. We hear that Mr. George V. Vernon
is to be appointed to Carlow.—(Cartozo Morning -
Post.)

THE YEONTANRY.
Tha Balbriggan corps of Yeomanry, under the
command of Captain G.A. Hamilton, which have
at all times been ready to come forward•and -offer
their services to Government; have, on the pre..
sent occasion, volunteered to serve wherever they
may be required.

COUNEI: OF TYRONE.—The Tyrone carps of
Yeomanry, commanded by Captain Hamilton,
Brown Hall, have gallantly volunteered to extend
their services to any part of Ireland, in the event
of their being required by Government. it is
but justice to add,
.that_this . loyal corps have at
all times- been 'amongst the' foremost to tender
their services, when required, to defend the va-
luable laws of their country.
On Wednesday last, the 12th instant, the Glen•-:

A she, Esq. of Ashbrook, unanimously volunteered--, -
their services to any part of the kingdom where
Government might find it necessary to employ

[From the Dublin Patriot of Tuesday.]
THE KING.-The-corporation of Dublin have
this day unanimously voted an Address to his
MAJESTY, on his arrival from Hanover.
THE LORD LIEUTENANT.-ADDRESS OF THE

PORATION TO Ills EXCELLENCY.
In all probability, ere we are put to press, we-.
shall be favoured with a copy of the Address of.
the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, Sheriffs, and Corpo•
ration, of the City of Dublin, to his Excellency -
the Lord Lieutenant, on the approaching termi- •
nation of his just, temperate, and efficient admi-
nistration of the Vice Regal Government of Ire-
land. The Address will convey to the Earl
Talbot an expression of the general regret, a
demonstration of the public gratitude felt by
the whole community, on the occasion of this
deeply painful separation. The conduct of the
Corporation reflects honour on the characteristic
feeling of the country, and their example will,
we doubt not, be followed by the other Corpo-
rate Bodies of the Kingdom. They perform a
great act of duty, which they owe:to themselves,
not less than to the illustrious object towards
whom they discharge it. Lord Talbot retires
from our country, accompanied by the approba-
tion of all good men, after• a zealous and equita-
ble performance of the arduous duties of his high
office, to which he may be considered as having
been appointed by two successive Sovereigns.
The Address to his Excellency the Lord Lieu-
tenant from the Corporation of Dublin, has
passed unanimously. The Members who pre-
pared the Address were—
Sir Abraham Bradley King, Alderman Darley, Alderman
Exshaw, Alderman Cash, S:r Robert Shaw, with five of the •
Commons.

The Address will be presented, when engrossed, to his Ex-,
cellency, by the Corporation at large.
Several Addresses from the country to his Excellency .are in
progress to be presented.

We have been just favoured with the following
by a Correspondent :—" On Sunday night last, a
numerous body of armed men went to the house
of a farmer, near Garretstown, of the name of
Carberry, and obliged him to give up his arms,
iwhich 'was only one gun.) They were going
off, after having received it, when, unfortunately,
Carberry's son appeared at one of the win-
dows, when he was instantly fired at by
some of the party, and received two wounds,
one in the neck, and one in the arm ; but it is
hoped neither of them are dangerous. On the
same night, a farmer of the name of Rooney,
and several others in the same neighbourhood,
were attacked and deprived of their arms. A
young man, who escaped from one of the houses,
and was making his way to Ashford to give in-
formation to the police, was discovered and pur-
sued by four of the party, and fired at several
times, but fortunately escaped. Several of the
inhabitants of the neighbourhood of Ardfinnan
and Castle-oliver have been deprived of their
arms."---(Evening Paper.)
On the 21th instants a man of the name of

The Marquis Wellesley is said to be the first.
Irishman who has been placed at the head of the
Government of Ireland for a century and a half
the last Irish Lord Lieutenant being the Duke
of Ormond. NVe are enabled to state another
interesting fact connected with the Noble Mar-
quis's appointment. He has chosen for his pri-.
vate Secretary an Irishman and a, Catholic.
This gentleman is a Mr. Blake, a barrister, at
present possessed of a very respectable and In-
crative practice at the English bar; Mr. Blake,
we believe, will accompany the Marquis Welles=
ley to Ireland.—(Dublin /Wining Post.) •
We can now state, we believe, as a fact, that ,
Mr. PlunWt does succeed the Attorney-Gene-
ral, and that he will only hold the place until-the
retirement of Lord Eldon, who, it is supposed,
will resign the Great Seal of England after the
next Session of ParlJameni, wsneti Mr country-
man will be made Lord High • Chancellor; tire
first of his countrymen, we believe, Isho
joyed that high dignity. It is said that Mr.
Saurin will succeed Lord Norbury in the Corn
mon Pleas.—(Dublin Evening Post.)

PERSIAN GuLrit.—lt appears that Sultan bon
Sugger, the Joassamee Chief, who formerly re-
sided at Sharga, but is now at Itas-ul-Khyma,
is urging the Prince of Shiraz to insist upon
the English withdrawing from their newly
settled position at Kishme, and not to permit our
keeping troops in any part of the Persia❑ Gulf.—
He offers, it seems, to undertake the complete
subjugation of all the piratical adventurers, by
removing from his present position on the Ara-
bian side over to ',hip, on the Persian side of
the Gulf, if the Prince will assist him there with
a body of Persians to be under his command. It
is thought, says our correspondent, highly pro-
bable, that the Persians will he tempted by
this bait to admit the Arab adventurer, 41.tbre.T.
would rather have the Joassamees or any one
else near them than the English : for whenever
they speak of our conquests in India, they
compare them with our new settlements on their
shores, and insist that we have no object in form-
ing them but to possess ourselves of a portion of
their territory, and gradually' perhaps of their
whole country.—(cat,

The• courageous and hitherto successful re-
sistance of the Greeks, the obstinate folly of
the Porte, the pertinacity of Russia, and the vi-
gorous attack upon the Ottoman Empire by
the Persians, leave little doubt on the mind of
any one who is acquainted with the constitu-
tion of the Turkish Power, that its dowufal
is at hand, and that the independence of Greece
will be gloriously established on the ruins of
that barbarous tyranny under which she has so
long groaned. We much fear that the policy
pursued by Lord STRANGFORD, and the severe
treatment inflicted upon the Greeks of the lonian
Islands, by the British Authorities there, have
not tended either to faCilitate the emancipation
of the , Greeks from their oppressors, or to se-
Cu-re to this cbuntry, all this advantages, poli-
tical and commercial, which might be derived
from the establishment of a new Christian Em-
pire in European Turkey. It is not to be sup-
posed., if the Greeks feel themselves to be
highly indebted to Russia, for the powerful aid
Which her military attidude has afforded them,
and for the open and determined manner in
which she has advocated their cause, and in-
sisted upon the security of guarantees for their
protection ; and if, on the other hand, they find
that England has so rigorously enforced her neu-
trality as in some degree to impede the career
Of Grecian independence, that they will be
very unwilling to lend themselves to the future
projects of Russia, or very desirous to form
a close union of interests with Great Bri-
tain. We are ready to admit that our Go-
vernment aod Lord STRANGFORD have been in-
fluenced by the best motives, and by what they
have conceived to be the wisest policy for the in-
terests.of England, for the security of the present
order of things in Europe, and perhaps for the
welfare of the Greeks themselves. We are
aware that the power of this country has not been
exerted to uphold the Turks in their barbarous
despotism over the Greeks, nor its influence to
justify them in the estimation of Europe for their
atrocities ; but, that on the contrary, the ut-
most exertions have been employed by England,
in the whole progress of the negociations, to pre-
vail upon the Porte to yield to the demands of
Russia, and that in this course our Government
has been at once actuated by good faith towards
Turkey, and by a sincere desire to see the Greeks

secured against future oppressions on account of
their religion. Though Great Britain has acted
in a friendly manner toward Turkey, it has
been far. from 'being hostile to the Greeks, or
really indifferent to their welfare. Still the con-
duct of this country and of Russia, in the nego-
ciations at Constantinople, has been so very dif-
ferent,—the aid given to the Greeks by Russia
in instigating the Persians to commence hostilities,
and the opposite endeavour of Lord STRANGrORD
to prevail upon the Persians to lay down their
armsr—could not fail to place England and Russia
in strong contrast before the Greeks, and to
produce an impression upon them exceedingly
unfavourable to the former. The error in our
policy (for we are persuaded it is nothing more)
seems to have arisen from the idea that the
Greeks were utterly unable to achieve their own
independence,—that the armies of Russia were
jutlispensably requisite to wrest the Christian
provinces from the hands of the GRAND SIGNOR,
--and that the consequent transfer of Greece
from the dominion of the Turks to that of the
Russians would have been attended with no very-
great advantage to the Greeks, while by the
tggiandizernent of Russia, it might have endan-

gered the liberties of all Europe: It now obvious
that this opinion was erroneous ; and it is even
yet not too late to avert, or to repair the con-
sequences of, the mistake. The British Go-
vernment is perhaps too far committed to retrace
its steps ; but it is in the power of the British
nation, by an unequivocal demonstration of public
feeling in favour of the heroic Greeks, still to
secure their affection and their gratitude for this
country. We rejoice to state, that a Committee
of Gentlemen met yesterday, in London, for the
purpose of concerting the preparatory measures
for a public meeting, to take this subject into
consideration. We hope to be enabled to state,
in a day or two, the particulars'of the intended

meeting.

We have the satisfaction to inform the Public,
from authority, that five of the murderers have
been capitally convicted before the Special Com-
mission sitting at Limerick, viz. three at one trial,
and two at a second.

We have just heard from the best authority,
that the ruffian Leader of the Irish Rebels, who
is styled Captain Rock, has addressed a letter to
the Lonn 1411:LITENANT, stating, that for every
one of his gang that suffered the sentence of the
law, he•would-lill ten persons wherever he should
find them.

" Captain BELL, of the U►tited States army,
has received from Government: the appointment
of Agent for the United States in the Floridas,
and it is the intention of Captain BELL to hold
a talk with the Indians on the 20th of this
month, for the purpose of making known to
them the resolutions of the United States, and
the friendly disposition of the Government. The
place of meeting will be at Wantons, in the
Alachua, where the Indians have been invited to
attend, and it is supposed that all the Indian
Chiefs and warriors will be present on this inte-
resting occasion. I understand that the Secre-
tary and acting Governor, and many of the prin-
cipal citizens, will accompany the Agent. In-
formation has been sent to the Indian traders to
suspend all further intercourse with the Indians
until the meeting, after which licences to trade
with them will be given by the Agent."

Columbia has established, by a detailed law,
the provisions for a general and uniform system

The Congress assembled at Cuenta has completed
the plan of a Constitutional Government, and in-
vited General BOLIVAR to that city, to which he
has repaired; the fleet under Lord COCIIR ANE
was expected at Panama on the 21st October.

We learn from an article in the Paris Papers,
that before the 10th November, the Senate of
the Morea had transferred its place of sitting
Irmo Calamata to Tripolizza. It has conciliated
the favour of a powerful ally, in the person of
the famous Ali, Paella of Janina, who has sent
a present of two millions of sequins, with a
letter of congratulation. This mark of his
friendship is noticed as a proof that the wily
Chief of Janina foresees the eventual triumph of
the cause of Greece. The letter is said to bear
the signature of Constantine, which marks that
he has abandoned the Islam faith to embrace the
doctrines of Christianity.--(New Times.)

FESTIVITIES AT SUDBROKE, LINCOLNSHIRE.
Sir RICHARD SUTTON gave an elegant entertainment at
Sudbroke on the 17th instant, on the occasion of the christen-
ing of his infant son. A very numerous party of the Nobility
and Gentry were present. The dinner consisted of every de-
licacy the season could afford, and the choicest wines sparkled
on the hospitable board. A new and magnificent service of
gilt plate from Messrs. Rundell and Bridges, was displayed for
the first time, and attracted the particular notice of the party
present, from the tastefulness of its design and splendid ap-
pearance. The amiable and beautiful Lady Sutton graced the
festive scene, and, by her enchanting manners, added an ad-
ditional delight to the happiness which beamed on every counte-
nance. Viscount Strathaven, Sir Harry Goodrick, and the
Gentlemen of the Burton Hunt, partook of the hospitalities of
Sir Richard, and the day.passed off in the most gratifying and
felicitous manner.

.the musical profession, amused the com-

Gentlemen also added to the harmonic treat. Quadrilles fol-
lowed. Refreshments were abundantly supplied during the

It was the Lady of Mr. Nash, not„Rnsh, who gave the mag-
nificent ftte, at East Cowes Castle,. which we noticed in our
Paper yesterday.
Noitwicit.—The ball on Monday night (at which Sir
GEORGE JERNINGRAM and Dr. WRIGHT were the Stewards)
was perhaps the best attended and the most pleasant of any that.
has taken place for many years. This is probably attributable
to the high respect in which the Cossey family are held; and we
say generally that nothing can tend so much to raise the charac-
ter of the Norwich Assemblies (which hare not hitherto stood
very high), as the countenance and presence of county families
of distinction. The Company 'consisted of many of the most
distinguished persons in the county of Norfolk. The ball was
opened with a country dance, led off' by Miss Jerningham and
Mr. Bedini;field, after which quadrilles were commenced and
kept up with great spirit till three o'clock, when it concluded
with the favourite dance of Sir Roger de Coverly.

BRIGHTON, DEC. 21.—We are endeavouring
to prepare amusements at this place when the
concerns of the State unavoidably deprive us of
the enlivening rays of Royalty. Among other
attractions, we have a Picture Gallery, which
contains some excellent productions, and particu-
larly from the masterly hand of the late admirable
De Loutherbonrgh,as well as several from the Ita-
lian, Dutch, and Flemish Schools ; so that we shall
afford attraction to the Connoisseurs when winter
shall preclude all external amusements. And still
more to attract attention to our town, the Picture
Gallery diverts the mind as well as the eye, as
its tables are covered with newspapers, maga-
zines, &c. &c. His MAJESTY is in perfect health,
and we are not without hopes that he will con-
descend to take a look at our Pictorial display,
as, indeed, it contains several works that merit a
higher situation.
IN CHANCERY•—Two Gentlemen in conver-
sation the other day, one asked the other, " How
their friend (a Master in Chancery), liked his
new gig horse ?"^" Not at all," replied the
other ; " he can't get him on at any rate."—
" Oh ! " rejoined the former Gentleman; " that
