LONDON.
FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 7, 18t18,

In another part of our Paper will bo found an
Address to Lord BEXLEY, by Sir JOHN MAX-
WELL TYLDEN, in answer to his Lordship's
late Appeal to the Brunswickers of Kent. \Vher.
his Lordship shall have read the reply of Sir JoHN
he will, we thiuk, wish that he had not rushed
so inconsiderately into print. But Lord BEXLEY
was no doubt alarmed that his sincerity in the
cause of intolerance should be doubted, and
hence the « masterly exposition" of his una-
bated
devotion to bigotry, in all its antiquated
forms of penal vengeance and exclusive right.
Lord BEXLEY'S anathemas are directed against
the Catholic Religion, the Catholic Associa-
tion, and liberalism t and his commendations-
-are lavished upon men of
warm from the heart
his own peculiar two of mind, but partaliing
perhaps of more zeal, -or rather fury, but less dis-
cretion, in the cause—the NEwCA ST LEs

as earnest je°B by Sir
conclusive. His Lordship rails at the power of
the Catholic Association, and Sir J°IIN-"rY
properly asks—" What keeps up
the conse-
quence and the power of the Catholic Associa-
tion ? Is it not the oppression under which
they sufkr ? Take from them the source of
their cotiplaints—give what they have a right to
demand---make the law in Ireland the sanie for
the Catholic as the Pr.otestant—let justice go
even-handed to all sects—do away the proud re-
volting superiority of one caste, and restore the
birth-right of the other, and your great dread,
the monster that rises the stronger from every

effort Made to subdue it, will vanish on the in-
stant."

This is the great secret. But will Lord BET-
LEY'S party concede ? Common sense has al_
ready al7pealed to their justice in vain—it must
now speak to their fears. Sir JOZIN remarks*
as a curious circumstance that all the conces-
sions to the Catholics should only have been
made in times of imminent danger.
" Either," says he, " the Government mint
have conceded these through fear, or from their
perfect reliance cm the sound loyalty of the Ca-
tholics. I leave your Lordship to decide which
was the actuating cause ;. whichever it was, you
must know that the Irish Catholics are not blind
to that event, or to the causes that led to it, and
they cannot see why their loyalty is now to he
more suspected than it was at that time ; or why,
if they were worthy of being trusted in times of
danger and dismay, they are not to he so in those
of peace and tranquillity ; they must feel, and
feel severely too, that either they are worthy to
have all their rights restored to them, or that they
are not worthy to have any."

The official account of the splendid victory
latelj obtained by General GEISMA R over the
Pacha of WIDDIN, with a force six times supe-
rior, is thus given in the Austrian Observer :
VIENN A, OCT. 26.
•

We have already given most of the particulars of the
victory obtained by General Geismar over the Priebe of
Widdin, near Czoroi, on the 26th Sept. We think our
readers will, however, be glad to see the official bnl!etin
which we have just received.
"The Vizier Pacha, of Widdin, with three dachas of two
tails, and 26,000 men, with 30 cannon, set out in the night
of the 25th of September to advance from Calafat against
Crajowa, and (asthe announced in an official document)
to annihilate the Russians by the way.
" On the news that his whole army had assembled on
the 26th in the plain of Boehaschti, Gen. Geismar advanced
to engage him. The battle began on the 26th at two in
the afternoon, and was not terminated till two hours after
midnight. Thiity- cannon of different ealihre scattered
death around, and a numerous and well disciplined cavalry
mere than once made great efforts to break our ranks; but
being repulsed at all points, they withdrew at night-fail to
the entrenchments already thrown up, which were occupied
by the enemy's infantry. Ours advanced on the Ottomans
is the dark, arid the confusion of the battle then became
terrible; the flames of the enemy's camp served to light
the combatants ; a great part of the Turkish cavalry and
many of the infantry fled in the greatest confusion under
cover of the night—the remainder shut up in the sub-
terraneous habitations of those who perished in the flames
rather than surrender.

" Seven brass cannon, '2 pair of colours, all the tents and
the entire baggage of the vanquished, a considerable quan-
tity of ammunition and provisions, the secret papers of
the Pacha of Widdin, and above 300 prisoners, are tile
trophies of this memorable day, in which .1000 Russians
totally defeated a force at least six times as great as their
,uwn, supported by a nurntreus and well-served artillery,
and delivered Wallachia from the disasters of a formidable
invasion.

Honduras Gazettes of the 30th of August
have been received at the North and South
American Coffee-house. They contain the Pro-
clamation of Don MANUEL ARcE, Vice-Prosi-
dent of the United States of Central America,
which will be read with interest by those con-
nected with this part of the world. It will be
seen that a confirmation is thus received of the

failure of the treaty between the Guatemaliaus
and the people of San Salvador :

AMERICA.

When at Guapinol, I WAS detained and outraged
with impunity by the Spaniard. Jn.,n 3lorje, who,
in the command of an escort, conducted a park of ar-
tine' y, also, treasures for the Army, cauti red at
Alexicane:s, who surprised me with an armed party.
Tu obtain redress for this insult to the Republic,
committed on. the character of its First Magistrate, I had
no other alternative than a formal complaint to the nation at
large; but at the time this outrage was committed I deoisted
from such complaints, lest the belligerent parties should con-
sider such an offence, connected with others, as an addition .1
aggreoe..ion,thus protracting the re-establishment of peace, and
imputing to me the continuation of civil war. It having been
announced today, that the discussions at Esquilel, between
the Commissioners of the Federal Government and the
Government of San Salvador, relative to the consideration
cf peack, have failed in the accomplishment of their ob-
ject, the cause of my former silence is removed. I there-
fore deem it imperatively my duty to publish the late
events, in which I have been personally concerned ; as
also the atrocious audacity of a Spaniard, who appertains
to no country, who has dared to insult the Preshfent of
the Republic. I issued the decree of the 14th February
Let, by which I tttnporarily resigned the exercise of the Ru.
preme executive power,toresume it when my duty required it.
I returned to the old city of Guatemala, to await the de-
velopment of the civil war, which, from the beginning of
1827, has afflicted Central America. There I remained
two months. During that period, far from tranquillising
the Republic, war increased with redoubled fury, for
which reason I directed to the Vice-President, exercising
provisionally the Supreme Government, a note, of which
the following is a copy
