EPISTLE FROM H. R. U. THE D-
TO THE EARL OF E-N.

Dear E—n, to thee, the most pious of Tories,
I pour out my sorrows on quitting the shore;
And, filled with dismay at the close of our glories,
Grieve that England we love is Old England no mote.
Those Jacobin watchwords of Reason and Knowledge
Are heard 'midst the Peers, and are passed to the throne ;
The Bishops and Deans are endowing a college,
And founding a Stinkomalee of their own.
0 where can we find for our King an adviser,
In the " slough of despond" while our destinies sink;
When squires and when justices strive to grow wiser,
And parsons themselves are beginning to think.
0 was it for this that for many a season
Thy voice sought to prove day inferior to night ;
Placed as natural enemies knowledge and reason,
And on orthodox* grounds preferred darkness to light.
How oft didst thou breathe a prophetical warning,
And to prelates how oft, and to peers didst thou say,
Beware, 0 ! beware the delusions of morning—
Distrust, 0! distrust the false brightness of day—
Awake thee! arise! our faith's aged defender,
And when the false light of philosophy gleams,
Curse its quick flashing rays, and bedim all its splendour ;
And cry like thy friendt " that thou hatest its beanie.'
Each work by our ancestors' wisdom erected
(Whether stone work or statute) is daily o'sithrown ;
Our laws, and our city, reform has infected ;
The church is in danger, and Swallow-st. gone.
Cornish granite no more tries the springs of our coaches;
No longer our streets glimmer darkly in oil ;
Roman cement on true British brickwork encroaches,
Romish principles spread with O'Connell and Doyle.
The Alfred is called a vile sobriquet,—Noodle's;
Constitutional whist to ecarte gives way;
And Knatchbull, 'tis said, at a dinner at Boodle's,
Preferred to plum-pudding an onte:elte sondes.
The Church chooses friends midst the foes who molest her,
The King, Lords, and Commons, pronouncing her doom :
Will Smith has joined hands with the Bishop of Chester,
And a soft silken tie binds Lord Lyndhurst and Brosighain.
Our orthodox faulcbion is blunted and rusted ;
Even Peel has proved false on all subjects but one :
The Duke—who could think it?—is not to be trusted;
And shadows and clouds gather dark round the Throne.
But still there is hope, while 'tis Goulburn unravels
The web of Finance, at the Treasury made ;
Grant driven far North, Husky sent on his travels,
And white-paper Courtenay presiding o'er Trade.
Whilst thy Thane Aberdeen is both " merry and wise,"
And Strangford notoriously " honest and true ;"
Whilst Herries continues the best of our "old loves,"
And t Law " the most modest and winning of new."
And, 0 ! if these vile Irish Scipios and Catos
Should venture in arms as in speeches to shine,
May I lead the Fifteenth to the land of Potatoes !
Their swords arc the King's, and their whiskers are mine.
Let the Brunswiekers join in this pious endeavour,
And combine all their strength for our national work ;
The Game Laws—the Corn Laws-the Treadmill for ever!
And a cheer or two more for Old Nick and the Turk !
Dover, Sept. 1828.

SPIRIT of the PROVINCIAL JOURNALS.

(FROM THE BITER CHRONICLE.)

The die is now cast and the last sutpost of light
on the confines of darkness—the last representation
of liberalism in power, planted and left within the
ramparts of the Tory Cabinet, like a rallying
standard of future hope by the dying hand of Mr.
Canning—has now been withdrawn. The Cabinet
is now again composed of one unmixed element, and
of one uniform depth of shadow. It is perhaps bet-
ter that it should be so; as there can be no mistake,
even in the dark, as to the political colour of the
Ministry henceforward. His Royal Highness the
Duke of Clarence has now finally resigned his func-
tions of Lord High Admiral, and is succeeded by
the previous Tory Machinery of a first Lord in the
person of Lord Melville, and four other lords, who
are at present (and few will take the pains to en-
quire) nameless. Lord Ellenberough succeeds Lord
Melville as President of the Board of Controul.
The work of Mr. Canning's short and brilliant mi-
nistry may now, therefore, be considered as finally
and totally undone.
(FRO3I THE CARLISLE JOURNAL OF SATURDAY.)

SMALL NOTES.—If we may judge from the tone
of the papers understood to be in the confidence of
the Duke of Wellington, his Grace has some inten-
tion of" turning his back upon himself," as a great
Statesman, now no more, would have said, by re-
pealing the Act passed last year for the suppression
of small notes after the sth of April next. his
Grace, it seems has obtained sonic new light upon
the subject, and as Mr. Peel is understood to hold
tenaciously to his opinions as to the necessity of a
gold currency, the Right Hon. Gentleman is to beat
a march, leaving his Grace at complete liberty to
deal with the question as may best suit his own no-
tions or interests. In our humble opinion the Duke
is quite as mach pledged to the suppression of the
small notes as Mr. Peel ; but his Grace being an
universal genies, cannot be tied down to the old
fashioned rules of right which govern other people.
To prepare us for the change, the papers in question
pretend that the northern districts are in a state of
the greatest consternation at the prospect of the loss
of the small notes. No such fears are felt in this
neighbourhood, so far as the people are concerned,
they rejoice in the intended suppression of the small
notes ; and it is a gross delusion to say that they
prefer the flimsy bits of paper to gold.
(Fxoat TUE INVERNESS COURIER OF WEDNESDAY.)
- -

It is stated in the Irish Papers that Mr. Dawson,
meagre his late memorable speech at Derry, still in-
tends to vote against Catholic Emancipation. By
what process of reasoning the worthy gentleman is
able to reconcile such conduct with the whole strain
and tenor of his declamatory oration, we are at loss
to conjecture. We cannot bring ourselves to believe
that Mr. Dawson sported liberal opinions at Derry,
merely as a country citizen sports his holiday clothes
at a grand civic feast. By such conduct he had
little to gain and much to lose—and accordingly we
find that he was hissed and sneered at by his au-
ditors, instead of receiving plaudits for his just and
humane sentiments. The Duke of Wellington,
however, or rather the force of public opinion, must
ultimately decide the question, and it was only as
connected with the ulterior policy of the Premier,
that the speech of Mr. Dawson assumed any interest
or importance. The Duke cannot be an inattentive
observer of the times, and the present condition of
Ireland is calculated to alarm even the most bold and
fearless. There is no denying the fact, that at this
moment, the Catholic Association has more power
over the great mass of the Irish people, than is pos-
sessed by the British Government. Now long this
state of things can continue with safety or security ?
If the Premier really wishes to allay the anxiety, and to
abate the sufferings of Ireland, it is time that he
began the task. Good thoughts, as was said by
Lord Bacon, are no better than good dreams, unless
put in action.

(FItOM THE tALEDONIAN MERCURY OF SATURDAY.)

RESOURCEs OF GREAT BRITAIN.—We lay it
down as a proposition susceptible of being demon-
strated, that " no financial considerations in reality
exist, at the present time, to interdict any line of
policy which the national honour or interests shall
point out as expedient." India and Ireland are as
yet comparatively unexplored mines for the Imperial
Exchequer. In regard to the former, the late Mar-
quis of Hastings, by far the ablest Governor-Gene-
ral whom this country has yet entrusted with the
government of its Indian dominions, has placed it
beyond a doubt that, with ordinary wisdom and pru-
dence in the management of its affairs, an eventful
surplus revenue, amounting to several millions ster-
ling, might be made available from thence to the
metropolitan state. And it is clear, if soil, popula-
tion, sea-ports, and locality, afford any criterion, that
we have a right to expect that the latter may at
length (especially when her political and religions
dissensions are composed) be rendered capable of
yielding a share to the general expenditure of at
least ten or twelve millions annually, beyond what
she at present contributes. These are not extrava-
gant anticipations ; and, whenever they are realised,
which may be as soon as the Government chuses to
act with ordinary wisdom and justice, England will
be freed from the burden she has so long laboured
under, of almost exclusively paying for both coun-
tries. Here, then, are sources of wealth and power
which yet remain in a great measure to be explored,
and which necessity at least, if we are susceptible of
being influenced by no better motive, may cornrei
us to cultivate.

(FROM THE DUBLIN MORNING REGISTER OF i'RIDAY.)
PARLIAMENT.—We are again assured that Par-
liameut will meet on the 4th November, for the
purpose of repealing the Act that renders it treason-
able in a British Minister ta communicate with the
See of Rome, and that there will be an adjournment
when this matter is disposed of, to the first week in
February.
(Eton THi! DUBLIN EVENING COST or THECRSDAY.)
ANOTHER PROPHECY.--The reader has seen how
accurate our prescience has been in the case of Mr.
Dawson! Let us try it on the Beresfords! We have
been lately casting the nativity of this great family
—and behold ! the horoscope points to concession.
The Marshal, or the Fates are liars, will be the first
to bolt—and the Lord Georges and the Lord Johns
will follow in the fullness of time—nay, the Arch-
bishop himself—and there will be only left behind
the Bad remains of him who was once John Claudius,
but who is now only a Dublin Alderman, to weep
over the ruins of his house and his hopes. We have
said it !

POTESTANT FEELING—SIGNS OF THE TIMES.—
The Mail of this evening presents a refreshing
spectacle to the lovers of the Constitution and the
supporters of the Protestant Ascendancy. There
are no fewer than six exhibitions of the right feeling
displayed in our columns this evening, either in the
shape of resolutions, the reports of public meetings
which have taken place, or the announcement of
those in contemplation—and first--
