SATURDAY, SEPTEM BER 92, IS9I.

We received this morning the Paris Papers of
Wednesday, the contents of which respecting
the affairs of Turkey and Russia are warlike-
ft -appears by letters from the Russian head
quarters, that the Russian army is to enter the
principalities of Walachia and Moldavia on the
29th of August; and this intelligence is render-.
ed the more probable, as it coincides with a pry'
vate letter from the !maks of the Pruth, which
states, that since the 13th of that month, the
Russians were in daily expectation of order'
to advance, and that their operations would ex-
tend over. the space of the country from Jassi.
to Constantinople, which had been inspected by
the Russians for this purpose. We gave yester-
day a summary of the transactions in Spain since
the 4th instant, and to-day we have extracted
them at length from the French papers. 'Pei'
will be found very interesting, but Anula be
received with caution, as the French journal;
have usually published exaggerated statement
respecting the recent events in that country. The
Manifesto of the GRAND Sivioit, to •whicti
we adverted yesterday, will be found in 007
ther column. •

ST. GEORGE'S HANOVER-SQUARE.

A Meeting of some Inhabitants of the above
Parish, took place yeste►day, in a dirty room in the Haunch
of Venison-yard,
.Lover Brook-street, fur the purpose of
voting a congratulatory Address to her Majesty.
Mr. HOIMOUSE was in the Chair, supported by PETER
Moults. _ _ _

Not above 100 persons were present, and those for the most
part of the lowest description. Mr.Holehouse himself seemed
ashamed of his company, and exhibin:d much less energy than
he usually displays on such occasions.
Mr.PETeca Moons, as usual, enumerated the obligations
which the public were under for the zeal and ability which he
had displayed in their cause.
No other Speakers of note presented thunselves, and such
was the (hi-lido-ice that prevailed, that souse tinte elapsed be-
fore any householder was leanly enough to appear in answer
to the call of Mr. Hob house, who stated that-it was necessary
that the Resolutions should. be proposed and seconded le",
householders. . . .

~ Ma. EDITOti-1-- As ANoLicAxus has directed
your attention •to the 46 Jesuitical practices" of a
Paper, which, with him, I believe, inayOn gene-
ral, be k‘ sound and well principled," allow me
to notice its -violence and intemperance on the
subject of Naples,.in the hope that you will ex-
tend the same moderate, dignitfed, and manly
reproof to it, which you lately bestowed on the
Editor of a certain Weekly Paper:
If.the-Editor of the Morning Paper alluded to
is in possession of exclusive iuformatiou which
• enables him to know that the Revolution at
Naples has been effected by 64 traitors," " re-
bels," and ". miscreants," in opposition to
the Wishes of the people, and from motives
of hatred and contempt for Royalty, why
.does he not disclose it, and dispel the delu-
sion which generally prevails, and which con-
tinued accounts of the cordiality subsisting be-
tween the Duke of CALABRIA, and the Neapoli-,
tan Parliament, their moderation, and particu-
larly their determination not to interfere in the
Concerns of neighbouring states, all tend to per-
petuate and confirm ? Till this exclusive informa-
tion is disclosed, I shall, for one,. take leave to
believe., that " the traitors arid rebels;" of whom
Such frequent mention is made in the New' Times,
are mere phantoms raised by the Editor tosuit
some particular purpose, and to favor the designs
of the Holy Mliancers.

. For my own part I have generally observed,
that those men are the most violent and intem-
perate in their language who are advocates of a
bad cause, and of principles not founded on
reason or good sense, because as their arguments
can receive no support from truth, they must be
maintained by desperate substitutes, of which
virulence and invective are those most commonly
adoptee. It would ill become me to pursue the
conduct which I reprobate i❑ others. I shall,
therefore, having drawn your attention to that of
the above mentioned Paper, abstain from offering
further observation, as I am sure you will visit
it with such portion of your editorial censure as
You may conceive equal to its demerits.

.[FRO`i•.AN AMERICAN PAPER.]

BRITISH POLICY.-It ic perhaps not. generally
known that the Foreign Ministers who represent
:the Court of St, iarnes's .at Paris• St. Peters-

burgh, Amsterdam, and Madrid, receive each of
annual salary, eleven thousand. pounds sterling,
while the British Minister at Washington is paid
only the half' of that sum. The bare statement
of this fact is sufficient we should think, to open
the eyes of the most bigotted, as to the contemptu-
ous manner in which the English Governinent
view this country, and its want of gratitude for
are immense sums which we pay to the ma-
nufacturers of England for the articles they
are daily sending to the United States.—Their
trade with this country in domestic manufactures,
greatly exceeds that of France, Russia, Holland,
and Spain put together, and perhaps of all Europe.
In rettirn for this, we are treated as a power
scarcely deserving half the respect of one of these
nations taken singly. Even the British minister re-
sidingat Lisbon, previous to the late revolution, re-
ceived as large a salary as the Envoy to the United
States. We are not disposed to justify high salaries
in any case; What we notice is, the invidious dis-
tinction by Which we are marked out as only a
half rate power when compared with certain other
rountries3 whose title to the first rank will never
bear a comparison with ours ; for it is in the
Manner of fitting out, and in the amount of
salary allowed an ambassador, that the Bri-
tish Ministry are known to proclaim the esti-
mation in which they hold the country to
which he is sent. We do not. mean to hold
this out as a subject calling for the interference
of ourgovernment ; but we think that those who are
so strenuous in advocating British interests, and in
promoting the consumption of • British rnanufac-
tures in this country, ought, if they are really
ambitious of our national honour, to view this
circumstance in its proper light. Encouraging
the consumption' of the manufactures of a foreign
nation at the expellee of our own is -no great
proof of patriotism; but when we
.find, that the
nation on which we are lavishing such manifold
benefits, treat us, in return, with contempt, it is
time we should show a proper resentment, by
leaving them to seek another market for their
goods, and encourage only those of our own 'for-
mation. Justice to ourselves demands that we
should adopt a course so plainly marked out by
sound policy.—(National Advocate.)

" XXXVII.-OF THE CIVIL -MAGISTRATES.

": The Majesty hath the chief power in this Realm of
England, and other his dominions; unto whom the chief govern-
ment of all estates of this Realm, 'whether they be ecclesiastical
'or civil, in all causes doth appertain ; and is not, nor ought to
be, subject to any foreign jurisdiction. ' •
" Where we attribute to the King's Majesty, the chief go-
vernment, by which titles we understand the minds of some
slanderous fol 6 to be offended, we give not our Princes the mi-.
nistering either of God's Word, or'of the SaCramenta the
which thing the Injunctions also lately set forth by Elizabeth
our Queen, do most plainly testify ; but that only prerogative;
which we see to have been given always to all godly Princes in
holyscriptui•es by God himself ; that is, that they should rule
all estates and degrcei committed to their charge by God, 'whe-
ther they be ecclesiastical or temp Oral; and restrain with the civil
sword the stubborn and-evil doers. •

" The Bishep of Rome hath no jurisilictiit in this Realm of

CC),PY,. of the LEICESTERSHIRE PETITION against
the ROMAN CATHOLIC CLAIMS.
To the Honourable the. Commons, Scc.
The hiimble' Petition ' of the undersigned Freeholders and In.:
habitants of the County of Leicester, resident within the
Deaneries of Gartree, Sparkenhoe, Goscott and Frainland,
within the Arclideaconry of Leicestef.,

Sheweth,---That your Petitioners_ view with great apprehen-
sion and alarm, the repeated exertions made by the Roman Ca-
tholic Inhabitants of the United Kingdom,, to obtain a repeal
of certain restrictive Statutes, which were enacted by Parliament
in fanner periods, to gnard againt the admission of Roman
Catholic power and ascendancy in this Protestant State.
That your Petitioners being fully persuaded that the admis-
Sion and concession of such claims would be attended with im-
minent danger to our Protestant Country, and that the Mem-
bers of .the Church of Rome have had already conceded to
them every privilege which can safely be given, and are in the
enjoyment or complete religious toleration, earnestly pray that
no further concessions may be granted, and that your Honour-
able House will continue inviolate those Laws which have hi-
therto encircled a Protestant Throne with Protestant Parlia-
ments and Protestant Advisers, and which were ever regarded
by our Progenitors as the " Bulwarks of our Constitution:'
And•your Petitioners shall ever pray, &c.

The Public ought to be on their guard with re-
spect to the shillings for. 1820, as there are a

number of forgeries or them current at present.
They may be known by the coarse -manner in
which the head-is executed, or. more readily by
the fonnation of the figures under it. In the gei
naive coin, the lower part of. the 2 in 1820 is
formed by a straight line,

FOR THE SUN.

TO THE PEOPLE OF BRITAIN.
FRIENDS AND FELLOW COUNTRYMEN,—ASk
yourselves these questions : Why was a measure
of such national importance as the Catholic Ques-
tion brought forward, at a time when so many
of the Members must be absent on County As-
size business ? Why are we Protestants told that
such a measure will place us better than before ?
Is it because we are supposed to be children or
fools ?—Can you augur nothing from the oily
smoothness with which the Resolutions were
brought to pass without opposition, but leaving
them open- to future animadversion ?—lf ye were
going to fight a battle, would ye permit your
enemy to take the best ground, merely that ye
might fight for it afterwardS ?—Do you really
believe that these six Resolutions embrace speci-
fically the whole.of the Catholic Claims ? If you
do not, then pause before you place them in a
better situation to obtain the rest. Do.you see
nothing in the extraordinary haste of .the mea-
sures proposed ?—Do you think, that if these
points are not to -be granted, it will be proper
that they should pass the Commons, only to be
refused in the Lords ? or, Do you wish they
should pass both Houses, to be refused in a higher
quarter ?--Are you prepared for a new Corona-
tion Oath ?--Do you believeTransubstantiatiOn and
the Invocation of the Virgin MARY, to be merely
dogmatical and speculative .points ? But even if so,
are they not the best tests to ascertain a Roman
Catholic ? Are they not the assay to determine the
pure Protestantism of -the British Constitution ?
—Do you think that if the Laws of Britain once
acknowledge the "Spiritual jurisdiction, power
and suieriority., pre-eminence or authority of any
foreign Prince, Person, Prelate, State or Poten-
tate" to be admissible " within these realms,"
that matters will- stop there ? Read, carefully
read, the FOURTH RESOLUTION-leave out the
words " or spiritual"—and then ask yourself
what must be the natty* induction—to say
nothing of the stretch which Roman Catholic so-
phistry will give to it? llave you ever iteard of
Jesuits ? .• Have you ever heard of Cardinal Le-
gates ? Can you refuse their exercise of
," Spiri-
tual power, jurisdiction, .Stc." if such resolutions
become the law of the land—of a Protestant
country ? In the dying words of PITT, I must
indeed exclaim, " my Country !"

AVILsoN, who' has so.
.fnach distinguished herself in ,the higher musical
tiro les, and before his MAJESTY, laSt.night made
he r first public appearance at this Theatre, asMan-
altnjn,-in the Opera of Artaxerxes.. She is cer-
tainly a prodigy in point of strength and compass Of
vo :Ct. ; and that voice has been most ably,Cultivit:
ed by Mr..T. WELSH; who has to boast alsb- of
-the-musical education of Miss STEPHENS. Miss
;WILSON; on her entrance, war received with all
that holiest fervour in favour of merit, which, we
trust;, will ever mark the British character.
'1 ie ardent and universal welcome which
she received, indeed overpowered her so much,
that It was some time before she had cou-
rage enough- to look at the audience. The
,gealous approbation, however, which attend.
e 4 her first essay animated her, and at length she
acquired full possession of her extraordinary
Powers. We shall not pretend to enter into a
technical description of those powers, but simply
,observe again that her voice is remarkable for
strength and the extensiveness of its compass. The
tone also is good, and she, sings with a regulated
taste though she sometimes indulged the audience
With that ornamental -luxuriance which the taste
Of the times demands. Her figure is pleasing,
but not oT the carnmanding order, and her face is
liandsome and expressive. -Considering that it was
411(1 first appearance on* stage, her action was
easy and appropriate, .arid seemed.. to be the re-
Solt of feeling: 'She was-encored in three or four
of die airs, and, she snug Thc Soldier Tir'd"
With so much effect, thaLsheonly escaped giving
it a-thii'd time, by the liberal consideration of
the majority: BRAH.IM gave his usual effect
to the character of Ar bac6., and Horix appear-
ed to more than usual advantage in Artabanes.
Tlie'ol,Fra went off with:such eclat, the audience

In the Pit wavnis4 their hats and handkerchiefs,
that when ItossELL came forward to announce ano-
ther Flay for this evening, there was a general
call for the repetition of Artaxerxes. He stated,
however, that the boxes
.were taken for its re-
Petition on Saturday, and that therefore.it would
.be unjust to substitute any *other Play on that
night. die added, that it was. the intention of
:the Manager to assjgn three nights every week
to the performance of Operas.—The house was
thronged in all parts, arid the audience were more
-decorous and attentive than has been usual on
such crowded occasions.

THE TIWATRF:

The rettption which Mr. YOUNG experierred
last night, on his return .to COvent-Garden
Theatre, after an absen.ce of three yearss is ho,
nourablo to tEe Public as well as to the Ai'-tor,
inasrmich as it proves that taste and judgmtqlt are
not wholly extinguished by the 111C'W style ofaCt,
itr wl kh has been introduced within the lastfe.w
years, and has corrupted so many of the-PerfOrmers
oldie Metropolitan stage: The moment Mr.Y.OtTN6:.
appeared,, a universal burst of applause ensued,'
with waving of hats, handkerchiefs, and every
testimony of respect and esteem. These flattering-
tributes, from so numerous an audience as con-
stituted a considerable portion of the public,
continued with reiterated force-, for several.
minutes, and .Avere received by the Porformbr
with dignified and modest gratittule— The
play then proceeded, and during • the
vats it must have been thought surprising that the;
Managers of the Theatre should have suffered's°
excellent a Performer to be so long removed'
from their service. The excellence of Mr. YouSro-
iri Hamlet is so well known, that we need-
oiily that if he at all differed film)
his former representation of it, it was to she** •
that the' testimony of public kindness which ha'.
had received, bad stimulated him to an increased
exertion, in order to render himself more cleseri•L'
in: of itc Ills performance was marked tbrongli•-•
out with dignity, feeling, spirit, and energy, as
the nature of the scenes demanded. Therefore
with three such performers as YOUNG, M turn anY,
and " last not least" in public estimation, CnArtr.ts
KE:iIIII,E, besides its comic strength, this Theatre,
unless there should be a lamentable. deg,on,•;nic'y' •
in public taste, has abundant cause to anticipate..
a successful season.

SURREY SESSIONS.

Yesterday these Sessions commenced at the sessions House,
Horsemonger-lane, before the Chairman and a very full
Bench of Magistrates of the county.
The CIIALFDIAN, in charging the Grand Jury, obseried,that,
although the present calendar
,did not contain any unusual
number of cases out of the ordinary way, yet he feared them-
was too much reason to believe that crimes of the greatest
magnitude were alnioA perpetually committed in the neigh-
bourhood of that plaCe.. The beinousneSs of crimes exclud-
ed them from forming a part of the calendar for these Sessions.,
as the Court had no jurisdiction over capital offences ; but the,
gentlemen whom he addressed had nevertheless, as the Grand.
Inquest of the County, the duty of inquiring into such cases,.
although they were not triable in that Court. Some cases of
breaking prison would come under their inquiry; this was ars.
offence which, under some circumstances, was capital; but it
had also its shades of gradatioq. It was their duty to deal.
with the bills as they came before them, according to the.
evidence, and to put the parties on their trial before a petit:
Jury, if they saw in the evidence in sopport,of the bill rea-
sonable ground to make the chatge matter for further in-
quiry. Where they saw no sod; ground, they would mark
the bill, in the language of the law, " ignoramus If.. its
the course of their inquiries, they encountered any difficulty,.
the Court would he ready to hear them, and give them ins
best information and assistance.
The Grand Jury withdrew, and the Court was then neva-
pied in receiving presentments.

FOREIGN INT ELLIGENCE.

SPAIN AND MOROCCO..
Extract of a Letter from Gibraltar, Dec. 18.
----7-1-egterflay was a.' scene of riot
,and confusion
at St. Roque, in thisneighhourhOod, on the oc-
casion of electing a corridor (Magistrate) and
Town Council. The country people all assem-
bled in the morning in the church, where it seems
the election takes place, when aniatfray began
between these and the townsmen and militia ;
knives, muskets, and bludgeons, being- the wea-
pons. The former chased the militia away, and
order was only restored by a company of the re-
gin-lent of Gallicia, quartered in the neighbour-
hood,:who came in : the casualties are, one man
killed, and four wounded. There seems to be a
spirit now brooding among the lowers in Spain,
that may produce fatal consequences hereafter—
they wear publicly in their hats a green ribband,
with the inscription,— The Constitution or
Death.'

" According to the most recent accounts from
the coast of Barbary, a contest for the sovereignty
is carrying- on in the Empire of Morocco. The
new candidate fur the throne is Muley Ishmael,
the son of the celebrated Muley Yezzied, and
nephew to the reigning' Emperor. The struggle
is likely to he of short duration, as the army
have declared for Muley Ishmael, who has been
publicly proclaimed anl crowned -in Fez, where
he has taken up his residence. The old Empe-
ror has not, however, been yet dispossessed of
his power, so that there are two Emperors—one
at Fez, the other at Morocco. An official an-
nouncement has been issued by the Governor of
Gibraltar, ifeclaring the coast of Barbnry free
from the plague. The disturbed state of the
country is likely, however, for some time, to
throw.impeditnents in the way of the -commercial
intercourse with Morocco."

PRESBY'rEIIY OF EDINBURGH.

At the Meeting of the Presbytery this day, Friday, January
5, Dr. Noms I,tottght forward his promised motion for a
Loyal Address to the Throne, expressive of the.orinioos of the
Pyeshytery on the present state of the country. He had Pre:-
paved an Address which be took the liberty bf proposing.—
It was -seconded by Dr. GRANT. • .
sfr HARRY moscREIFF rose, and opposed the allegations of
the Address, as far as they imputed any degree of irreligion
and disaffection to the Inhabitants of thii country, sufficient
to authorize the present Addtet.s.
In whiCh op/million the Hon. Baronet was supported, in a
sueech of consider..ble length and ability, by the Rev. A.
Thomson, whO also.contended, that, Under the present cirt
timstatices, when the objects .pursued at public meetingt
were, simply to vote for the dismissal of Ministers, and fur
their contiduatice in office, the Address would be considered
a party Address. It was impossible:it could be viewed in any
other light, when Gentlemen came there from their-Council-
chamber, where they had been voting and signing such an
extravagant Address as they bad-beard of, and pulled out of
their pockets another, which they considered the very thing
for the Presbytery to .vote and sign, in co-operation of their
Conned-chamber Addrest.
After one or two • other Members had delivered their opi-
nions against the Address, the Rev. Drs. IND:As anti GRAM`
replied.
The Address was agreed to without a rote, Sir Harry Mon-,;
creiff contenting himself with delivering in his reasons of
dissent, which here immediately signed hy'the Reverend A.
Thomson. anti other Members are expected to sign it before
• the next meeting:a the Presbytery.--(Erlinincrgic Sear.)

' On Friday last, notwithstanding the incle-.
mency of the weather, the Philosophical Society
of Portsmouth and Portsea was most respectably
attended, and so great is the interest excited by
this Institution, that many highly respectable fe-
males were present. After the lecture (which
was.a very interesting one, .on •The' Mechanical
Powers) the President announced that the Com-.
mittee, had purchased all Mr. Stebbings! appara-
tus, including the Steam. Engine and also that.
he .had received a donation of 10!.. from G. P. JEtt-
vorsE, Esq. Member for the County, who had'
expressed a wish to become'a Patron of the Socie-
ty ; and three guineas' from D. How Ann; Esq.
Several new Mtmbers were ..voted in and others
proposed. ThZ# foundation stone may theref2re
be considered as substantially laid, of an Insti-
tution as useful in its consequences as its exten-
sion and prosperity are honourable to the public
spirit and literary taste of the Inhabitants of these
towns. The subject for the next lecture is Free
Carolic or Heat' of Teinperature, being the first
to a course on Heat,. Fire, and Light.
It is a remarkable circumstance, that out of a
population of 50,000 souls .resid'in'g in the ' City,
and Liberties of Kilketitlyin -Ireland, there' is not
a single private tentleinan that'keeps' ' his eat-
riage.

CAPE Or GOOD HOPE.

Letters and Papers from the Cape,' 'of Good
Hope to the 2‘...)d of October, are satisfactory in
all points of view, but especially with a refe-
rence to the new settlement at Algoa Bay. His
Excellency the Governor, Sir. It: S. Donkin, was
taking•some effectual measures to place the coin-
age of the Colony upon a better footing, and on
the 13th of October he issned.a Proclamation for
destroying a very large quantityof base money.
He has also taken measures to .coMmunicate to
the new settlers from England the full .benefit of
the Courts of Justice established in that quarter
Of the world. This fact will best appear froth the

STATE 111,

", In this statement, the duty on fir timber is supposed to be reduced to 21. 10s. per
load, and deals and battens to pay 51. per load, (being double the rate of timber) and
in consequence of deals and battens -then paying a higher duty, only one -third instead
of two-thirds of fir wood imported, will consist of deals and battens. The importa-
tions of European fir wood in the year 1818, are here also taken as the data of the
calculations.
The whole quantity of European fir wood imported in timber, L. S. D.
deals, and battens, in the year 1818, as per State I, amounted
to 379,132 loads.
Two-thirds Of said importation, sup-
posed to consist of timber, give 252,783 loads, 21. 1 Cs. 631,970

ported, as per State II ; 31,598 loads, at 21. 108. 78,995

Note—ln thii state, as well as in the two foregoing, eight loads are supposed to
be the average of each hundred deals, but if 9:t loads (the average of -Leith
importations) arc taten as the basis of the calculation, the increase of the re-
venue would be 391,0751. 1 s. 4d.
