NEW POST-OFFICE.

Mr. GORDON asked, why the Papers relative to
the erection of a new Post Office, which were
ordered to be kid before the iloiHe f.ix weeks ago,
were not yet preserved ? The whole transaction
had the appearance of a mutual job betwee❑ the
City of Loudon and the Treasury.

accommodation of tl►e public, and the Papers hav-
ing been ►'eferretl by the TT easury to the Surveyor
of the 130ari of IVork=, were on that account ►te.

throne, addressed a compliment to his Majesty in
the Persian language, which was immediately

Ambassador then delivered to the King a letter,
and presents from. his Sovereign. The King re-
plied to the Ambassador, and the answer of his
Majesty was likewise translated by the Govern-
tnent Interpreter. The Ambassador afterwards

The subject of the arrest of General Gotta-
GAUD, and his removal from this Country, was
lirought forward last night in the House ot Com-
mons by Mr. LANIBTON. It is very -"surprizing,
that the Opposition Members should feel such an
interest in the concerns of mi,chievous Foreigners,
and display such persevering hostility against tire
A.LII?N ACT. Fur our part, we heartily; concur
wi:h the Speech of Mr. SINCLAIR, in the House of
Commons last night, in a full conviction that it is
necessary for the protection of the Country, and
in his opinion, that Englishmen would never act
harshly against persons whom they were ordered
to take into custody, unless fully jusiified by violent
resistance. Such was the case with this worth-
less foreigner, as wAs most satisfactorily stated
by Mr. CLIVE last night, in a just defence of the
Officers who had been employed on the occasion.
Sir GEORGE COCKBURN too gave such an account
of the political versatility of this Foreign Mis-
creant as renders him at once an object of con-
tempt and abhorrence.

The Petition to the House of Lords from the
University of Oxford, against the Claims of
pery, was yesterday presented by Lord GRENViLLF.
It is consolatory, amidst the dangers in which we
should be involved, if we were to commit such an
act of political and patriotic suicide as to suffer
Papists to have a share in our Legislative Coun-
cils, to find ,that the two Universities are fully
impressed with a sense of their duty on this awful
occasion ; but our chief dependence is on the
Illustrious Head of the State, who, we have rea-
son to believe, considers the CORONATION OATH
as the bisis of his Political Supreo2acy. and Here-
ditary Rights, and who has resolved to gulrd it
the most sanctimonious fidelity. It is cu-
rious to find The British Press, an Opposition
Paper indeed, hut not of the outrageous kind,
terming the restrictions which are essential to the
preservat;on of our political and religious freedom
" those degrading distinctions, which, under the
pretence of religious zeal, seeks only for the con-
tinuance of an unwise political Monopoly "_ We
may retort the language of The British Press, with
a little alteration, and say of the Papists that
" under the pretence of political freedom they
seek only for the resumption of an unwise reli-
gious Monopoly," and the total destruction of the
Protestant Church.
