THE sTu.kaT PAPERS,

(Concluded frocii.Uor last.)
IZlta YAN. I)ap'ers nre nunierntit,
authentic, and talnahle. They are
su~ipos'cd to
amount to half a IVatty.Of (bent %vete not
unpacked. when tliein, "and covered, in great
luckages, the sides M a Itnall 'chamber. The
whole w'ciglied seven tons. They begin with
James the Second, and go down to the- death 'of
the Cardinal York. In those whith 1 saw, every

thing public and private is eultht'aced, .from'pluts
for invasion , and correspondence with foreign
powers, &c; &C. to the amours of the Pretender,
and the details of the domestio menage of the
Courfot Albany. Several letters. are in the hand-
writing of James and the, Pretender, and the
whole collection is arranged with an ,clahotatd
care which, ;dOes credit to the mete mechanical
talents fo`r business, of the exiles and their party.
I saw among the political papers, four procla-

Mations of the son of Jame 4,. particularly to the
Universities; the Pretender. promises the entire
establishment of their ecclesiastical rlghts,and his

support of the Protestant church in all its pri-

vilegre; however ample.. A short date after comes
a letter of the Cardinal, cOugratniating him on his
°Den avoiviii'a the 'Catholic religion Cif,conue

these are admirable, illustrations of eardt. Then
there is a letter•to James, from the General of the
Jethits, offering him lite support of himself in-
dividually, and his order, for auy religions.pnrpose
he•might design them ; it is very short 'and vague,
..signed,, I thiek, RITZ or firtz: Alitiost all the
.principal fatuities, of Jrcittoil and Scotland are im-
plicated. • A Colonel gillaysN seents to have

that have hitherto been only suspected, are
now deeply.compromised; particularly the \V Nn-
-840.1 who give most minute informa-
-1 don, and many other .Alembers of the Parlia-
ment of the day. There is a very lung letter
Of ATTERBURY, at ranging a plan for intm4ioo;
one from the, Duke of. FA LD3,, offering Admi-
ral liatcear then c

Fleet, a Peerage, And 400,000 i. in the result of
ills defectioo. There ate letters of the Duke of
NORFoiK; signed N., but of no importance ; lte
seems to have been the most cautions of the party.
1' 113VC, keoti. something, .but not with that preci-
sion Wineh von require, of ,a scheme arranged
ween 100: and ,for the assail.
siltation of tile Pretender. This, if accurate, is
a serious charge, .and may develope a singular
,scene of this strange drama.
The tetters of the Quts.fq are principally intro-
thicrions of Irish families, etiled and fugitive, to
her Roman.. and .Italian friends. 'I hey enter,
though nutncrons. in the extreme, but little into
the political intrigues of the day.
Perhaps the most curions of_the whole, are the
letters of Miss IVALIUNSHIW to Prince CIS A 111.1 n ;
the letteri of her daughter to the same ; the letters
of JAMas to him ; anti the remonstrance of his
friends in Scotland.
