TO CORRESPONDENTS.

* • ''' We cannot too frequently repeat our notice, that it is
impossible for us to insert contradictions of paragraphs,
or notices of facts, upon anonymous authority. We are
surprised that Correspondent; should not perceive of them-
selves that it would be undertaking a heavier responsibility
that, even that which of necessity attaches to a Public
Journal, were we to promulgate statements of which we.
know nothing, and which their authors do not'authenticte
by their signatures.

regret to-state the total toss of his Majes-
ty's frigate Phenix, by a hurricang, in the Bay of
Chistui, in the Arehipulago ; but are happy to find,
and it will be a co►►solation to the friends of those
on board, that. not a sink soul was lost on this
unfortunate occasion.

There is little of consequence in the Paris Jour-
nals of the 28th. second Treaty tias been con•
eluded between Austria and Bavaria, which we
strppost winds up the long negociatiOns between
these Powers. Bavaria takes possession of the
strpng fortification of Landau, &e. and it appears
that nem ly all the territorial arrange►uents on the
Rhine (►►t least on the Upper and Middle !thine)
are now concluded.
It is► said that Count STADION is resolved to
admit the free importat►on of Foreign nranuFac-
tur•es into the Austrian States. We wish every
Ninistcr in the world woald follow his example.
We are sorry to see a paragraph in the fielers-

burgh Gazette animadverting, in no very friendly
one, on some obiervation- made by Mr. Karon
revectiog Itmsia in our House.of (.:ortitsons.--
We had imagined that all the world knew that
there was a vast deal spoken in our long and
13ighily debates, which meant nothing, or was
to best extremely silly.
The Prince Ittiyal of Swenert has been hulls-
' posed: We. have observed lately a little more
mention of the Ex-King of Sweden than had been
customary for sometime; and are rather inclin-
ed to guess from the circumstance alluded to,
that there are some Sovereigns who would not
be averse to see him restored to 'his throne.

The charges which have been for several weeks
banging over the head of the Lord Chief Justice
Of the Court of King's Bench have evaporated,
as they might hale been reasonably expected to
do. they had been printed, and of course circu-
latedthroughout the Empire; and some persons
complained of this as a great grievance on the
Learned Judge. For our part, we could not view
it in that light ; for it had fallen to our lot to wade
into the utidct of these charges—to go through
them, we believe, would hare exceeded the pa-
tience of most people. All that we' could col-
lect, from their confusion and obscurity, was, that.
Lord ELLENBOUOUGU did not choose to give entire
credit to the oath of Lord COCHRANE. then stand-
ing as a prisoner befoie hint on a charge of frau-
dulent conspiracy. Lord COCHANE, halting' been
convicted on that Charge, naturally wished to re-
Leve himself as"much as possible from the impu-
cltion which it attached to his character ; but he
seilus to hare missed 164 way, in attacking the
Chief Justice : he would have shown more wis-
dom in confining himself to the direct proofs of

his own innocence, it he had any such to produce.

lie WaS, however, so ill advised as to become the
assailant; and yesterday everting he had to sus-
tain that character before the House of Commons,:
Ili, oratory ors this occasion was not more suer
ceisfnl than his written allegations had been. It
cor►vince►[ nobody but Sir FRANCIS BURDETT ; all
the rest of the !louse agreed in rejecting the
"lirges; and, the more decidedly to mark the
ti
sense that was entertained of them, a motion was
"tautly made, and carried, to take them off the
, tittn!uli.

has blessed this Country with Peace anti,Plenty,
and it is not to be endured that any men shall
convert our prosperity into suffering acid fml&
sery. The Quartern Loaf in London is a OM=
ling and a halfpenny, and the,Land•owners and
Farmers are clamorous about ruin.: Whti then
is it that mars the hope of the Agricultnrist and
oppresses the People ? Is it the bloated Mono,
polls:. and Speculator, into whose hands the for-
mer must of necessity consign his profitless pto.
duct, and from whose overgorged magazines the
latter must purchase their dear and overcharged
bread ? If such be the- case; 'all legislation is
vain which does not strike at this root ofthe evil,
and give the Producer the lair reward of his la-
b Our direct from the Consumer, without suffering
both to be preyed upon by i?orestallers and Ex-
tortioners.
