(FROM THE MORNING POST.)

The manner in which his Majesty's Ministers
ave been received on two recent and important oc-
casions, must serve materially to prove, if proof

necessary, the utter unworthiness of those
who would fain represent them as not pos-
sessing the entire confidence of the nation. The

it must be ; the Russian treasury if not exhausted, is
nearly in the extreme, and the recruiting,. however
easy of accomplishment in a barbarous and despotic
Qoutitry, cannot be rendered available without the
sinew of war being forthcoming. Equipments can-
not be had without money or credit, and we rather
suspect the Russian eredit is not at this moment at
a premium. It is notorious that efforts to raise small
loans have proved difficult'; and adding to this the
immense ex of the late war, we think we are

The Kildare-street Club is here alluded to. In the
rules of the Club, one black bean is equivalent to seven
white ones in the ballots. Lord William had 29 black
beans against him—a number, amounting to a clear
majority of the voters. Lord Errol,' immediately on
learning the result of the ballot, went to the Club-house,
and struck out his name from the list of members. The
Earl of llfiltown has also withdrawn, with several others.
It is supposed that the Duke of Leinster, the Marquis of
Downsbire, and several other noblemen and gentlemen will
follow the example.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.

Mr. Williams, of the New Post-office coffee-house,
again attended at this Justice-room on Saturday to
complain of the conduct of the military who were
engaged to " swell the parade" of the Lord Mayor's'
show, or rather to give vent to his wounded feelings,
in consequence of Mr. Alderman Ansley having
termed him " a violent Demagogue," and attempted
to throw discredit on his statement to Sir Peter
Laurie. As might be expected by those who knew.
Mr. Alderman Ansley (who was again sitting for
Mr. Alderman Thorpe), Mr. Williams was not
allowed to make a speech, but in detached sentences,
as he could thrust them in. He stated that he felt
the delicacy of his situation, from the respect due to
the Magisterial chair, when he had to falsify what
had fallen from the worthy Alderman himself; but
it was with astonishment he had observed in the
papers of that morning, that his Worship had ven-
tured to come down to that Justice-room, with a
feeling that was sufficiently obvious, to deny what a
citizen, though corroborrted by one of the City Offi-
cers, had publicly stated. Surely lie could not have
recollected that other persons who had eyes were
present as well as himself. He should now request
a summons or a warrant, under Taylor's Metropolis
Act, against the serf,eant of the company for riding
on the footway, in order that he (Mr. Williams)
might have an opportunity of verifying upon his
oath the statement he had made to Sir Peter Laurie.
The soldiers rode down the pavement, on both sides
of the way, from Creed-lane to Fleet-rcarket,
frightening the ladies into the shops, and turning
other persons into the carriage-way. His feelings,
as a citizen, were roused at such overbearing con-
duct, and he was sorry that a person could be found
in the country who would justify it. From the
correctness with which the complaint to Sir Peter
Laurie had been reported, he presumed the account
of what his Worship had said was equally correct,
and his Worship might conceive what he felt on
reading the newspapers of that morning.
Mr. Alderman ANSLEY said, the statement in the
Times of what he had said was correct, and he
would repeat, that he regretted that any demagogue
should come there and make a flaming speech,
traducing the military, where they really were not to
blame. They ought not to be villified when they
came into the city and behaved so extremely well.
He had not contradicted what Mr. Williams had.
said, but had only stated, that when he saw the
soldiers (which was when they were coming off the
pavement) they were conducting themselves in a
very orderly quiet manner. He had not heard any
conversation on the pavement, but he had not de-
nied that Mr. 'Williams might have heard what he
represented. What lie meant to deny was, that
they were drunk, or had occasioned the stoppage.
These were unfounded imputations. He had cer-
tainly intended nothing offensive to Mr. Williams,
for he knew nothing of him. If they did go down
the pavement, there being no other way, what harm
did they do ?

" Terrified the unarmed people," replied Mr.
Williams. " They drove me off the footway."
Mr. Alderman ANSLEY, continued—lt was ex-
tremely improper for any officer to seize the bridle
of a horse with an armed soldier on it; and from
Fogg'the Marshalman's own statement to him, the
soldiers made no observations till irritating language
had been
,addressed to them. " Was it not so,
Fogg ?" asked the Alderman.
Fogg respectfully begged to be excused from say-
ing another word upon the subject.
" You told me so, I am sure," said the Alderman.
Yes, the people were the first to speak," replied
Fogg.

we will not ask you any more about it,"
replied the Magistrate; and Mr. Williams retired
without the summons, seemingly but little satisfied
with the interview.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
On Saturday, a young man, named John Jennings
a servant out of place, who was taken into custody
some days ago upon suspicion of having been con-
cerned in the robberies committed at Lord Hart-
land's house, in Grosvenor-place, was brought before
Mr. DYER, the sitting Magistrate, for final exami-
nation.

It appeared, that in consequence of some infor-
mation which Goddard, the officer, -received, that
the prisoner, had been seen in the company of a man
named Burn, who is supposed to be the principal in
these robberies, and who, as weljas the prisoner, had
at one time lived in Lord Hartland's service, while
Burn was offering for sale some cut-glass claret jugs,
of the precise description that had been stolen from
Lard Hartland's house, the officer went in pursuit
of the
l'''ier, having failed in apprehending Burn,
.who is supposed to have gOne to Ireland to escape
justice, and succeeded' in- meeting with him at a

not steering far wide of the mark when we state that
Russia would readily accede to a negociation. This
being assumed as the case on the part of Rusiia—
what is likely is likely to be the course, which the
Porte will pursue The Turks lost their fleet by
the glorious tripartite victory at Navarin, they have
lost Varna by treachery, on their sea coast they. are
closely watched by a combined French and Russian
fleet ; and, under such circumstances, if again at-
tacaed, will they again show fight As far as we
have the means of judging, we think—we say, they
%rill; but if their internal resources have been
broken up, or nearly so, whatever their courage may
be, negociation must become their policy as well as
that of Russia.

(FROM THE NEWS.)
The Marquis of Anglesea, as Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland, seems to be in a fair way of experiencing
the fate of all his recent predecessors—of being hated
by one portion of the Irish, and despised by the
other : hated by the Orangemen because he will
not join them in persecuting the Catholics; and de-
spised by the Catholics, because he has consented to
assume a Government without stipulating for the
power of administering impartial justice in it. The
Orangemen, however, are far more bitter in their con-
duct towards him than the Catholics. The latter
give him credit for good intentions, but regret that
such a man should so far have compromised his in.
dependence, as to accept of office on the terms of
not being able to carry those intentions into effect.
The former let slip no opportunity of personally in-
sulting him; and though among the most abusive
of these men are to be found several living under
and upon the Very Government of which he is
the . ostensible head, yet he possesses neither
the power of reproof or dismissal. By their
influence a few days ago Lord William Paget,
one of his sons, was blackballed, in an attempt to
become a member of one of the most distinguished
of the Clubs of Dublin*—and, at a great Orange
dinner in that City, at which Lord Longford (the
Duke of Wellington's brother-in-law), presided
about a fortnight ago, the loudest hisses accompanied
the proposing the health of the Lord Lieutenant, as
one of the toasts. Under such circumstances it is
not surprising that reports of an intention, on his
part, to resign, have been in circulation--,,the wonder
is, that a man of spirit could have submitted so long
to such degradations.
