FOR TII L•' SUN.

Mn. EntTort—l hope you will insert the sub-
joined ludicrous account in yotir Paper of this
day. The Public ought to know that the Person
who is thus styled the Princess of CUlkIBElt-
LAND" and her " Royal Highness," is Alrs
SERREs,the Wife.of,Mr. S MIRES, a Marine Painter
of high reputation and acknowledged talents,
from whom she has been separated many years.
She was formerly a Miss NV mmorr, the niece of
a reverend Dr. WiLmoT, whom, in a work pub-
lished a few years ago, she attempted to
prove to be the Author of jumus, citing,
however, such passages, from supposed' manu-
scripts, of the Doctor, as were marked , by
the grossest ignorance and imbecility. She
has since come forward with a list of Do,cn-
MENTS, to prove that she is the daughter of the
late
,Duke of CUMBERLAND, by a marriage de-
clared to have taken place before the Duke mar-
ried Mrs. HonToN, and while his first wife was
living. tis observable, respecting the signatures
to these Documents, that etxr,y one of the parties
alleged to have signed them were (lead before the
Documents were produced. This Lady does not
seem to be aware that, in stating her Uncle" to
have been in the confidence of his late MAJESTY,
and yet that he was the Author of JuNms, she
charges him with being the Author of gross Li-
bels upon a virtuous Sovereign, whose protection
he enjoyed. But, in justice to Dr. WILMOT,
may he truly asserted, that he was wholly un-
able, and probably little disposed, to write those
celebrated Letters.—As to the Royal State which
this Lady assumes, it is one of those farces with
which the Public is often amused, and which is
certainly beneath the notice of Government.
A LOVER OF TRUTH.

" THE PRINCE'S OF CUMBERLAVD."
In the midst of the ordinary business of the Pahlic Office,
Bow-street, yesterday morning, a. very handsome equipage,
bearing the Royal -Coronet on the pann,ls, over the initials
0. U., drove up to the door, and a Gewleman alighted from
it, who requested to see the Magistrate immediately. tie
was accordingly introduced to Mr. BERNIE, and he then •
stated that he attended on behalf of " the Princess
of CUMBERLAND," under the following circumstances :
On Monday night last, as " Her Royal Highness" was
at her toilet, in her lonise,. Allred place, Store-street,
undressing, preparatory to her retiring to rest, a pistol, load-
ed With a ball, was fired at her, and the ball passing through
the window, about ten or twelve inches above her head, was
picked up in The room liy her waiting' woman. 'The Gentle-
man added, that " Her Royal Highness" having been much
alarmed by the en cumstance, was at the present moment
confined to lit r house by indispositioa : and being very desi-
rous of nualiing a deposition of the facts, it was her particular
request to the Magistrate that he would visit her at tier house
for that purpose, her carriage being then in. waiting to convey
him there. -
Mr. BERNIE., in the first place, dispatched a Police Officer
, to inspect the premises; and he having returned, and stated
his opiiiion that a pistol-hall had evidently perforated the
window as described by tie Gentleman, Mr. Bernie went in
the'cartiage, and waited upon " Her Royal Highness" as
requested.
We understand the ball was not found by the waiting wo-
man till the following morning. It was a very small ball, and
was manifestly almost spent when it smelt the window. We
are not aware-of the contents of " her Royal Highness's
deposition, but it was stated by the gentleman that' Int- ob•
• jest in malting it was, that a reward -might be offered for the
discovery of tine ruffian who tired the pistol. lie slated also
that " her Royal 'Highnuss " WKS not aware of any individual
who could have the most distant- motive fur acting so La-
Thiper.)

Yesterday, at two o'clock, another Cabinet 1
Council was held at the Foreign Office, in

further hearing was postponed.
