THE L.A.TE ILLUMINATIONS.

FOR THE SUN.

• - --
MR. EDITOR—Your Journal being devoted to the
cause of truth amidst this lamentable period of disaffection, al-
low me to. notice (by way of autidote) a most disgraceful and
false account which appeared in The Times of this day. re-
specting tbeftchli attempt at Illumination made in our old
loyal town. The writer of that curious composition of lies
and scurrility, well knew it to he only fit for the polluted co-
lumns of his favourite Paper ; and in order to make himself
worthy of such a vehicle, he commences by a direct falsehood,
and asset ts, that the long-established and most RESPECTABLE
part of Chelmsford, who waited on Lord CASTLEREAGH, tn as-
sure him (of what has never been disputed) of their full ap-
probation of his Majesty's Ministers, and their determined
hostility to every species of radicalism, was only a ridiculous
spectacle beaded by the Registrar of Stamps, &c., (by the
bye, if only, it was a Gentleman, at least of equal worth to
Hie nekna.,,ogye Author of this libel on his town's people).—
Bot, Sir, 1 witnessed the scene he laughs at, and though too
old to mingle with party, I rejoiced to find, hastily as the De-
Vutation was got up, that amidst the loyal group were distin-
guished the most honourable, patriotic, liberal, and respect-
able persons in the neighbourhood ; and the hint that such
men would attempt to lead the place captive to their will (as
Tories), is as false as it is contemptible ! No, Sir, this Whig
Writer well knows that the true spirit and well-earned repu-
tation of our Country Town, which he truly says (and the only
truth be is guilty of) has long ,characterized the inhabitants,
was in this late business more oterti Ilan ever not to be stigma-
tized or disgraced by joining ajactious few iti rejoicing fur
what is viewed by all worthy and conscientious men as a
most Ilturntable event, naroely, the DE,GRADATIGN Or ENG-
LA4:H'S QUEEN, by a HAJoItITY of the Peers !! ! To use this
. Dissenters" words .• he has strain'd the how TOO FAR !"
for instead of two hundred houses lit up, say tweniq only,
and that's nearer the number; but these honest Oppo.viiienists
can always add or diminish, as suits their pleasure, or else
they would nut be wort by Correspondents fur this tunes-scrv-
inK Chronicle ! Of the few names the Scribbler has ventured
to mention, it should be understood that one is 11 dissatisfied
PuMican, and the other something like a hypocritical sinne.-!
while the fkrst or the last was only asking custom for his shop !
In fact theselriseaeres prove themselves true to their calling; •
the one made no scruple of taking a name to her Majesty's •
glorious victory, the other evinced more love of political fury
than knowledge of his pharmoccenia, and the other had more
light without ihan spirit within ! Such, and such only, were
the Leaders of the Chelmsford Illuminators, followed by a
fewof the roost nefarious disaffected in the hamlet of Mout-
shawl alone—a place only to be equalled by the purlieus of.
St. Giles's, and well fitted to hold the admirers of Her proved
immaculated Majesty ! 111 respect to this Correspondent's
observation relative to the bells ringing and the Dissenters
lighting up. he was dreaming over the late evidence, and Non
nil ricurdo stared him in the face. Let bins but show who
the independent persons were that did thus disgrace the town.
and I will readily allow him, not tit for the place he is now
subject, and where liars, republicans, and wholesale dealers
in slander arc considered to be entitled to, and where 'ruts
fat-lairs Jacobin may remain, " to weep and wail ,and gnash
his teeth," which no doubt he did at the ill-success of his
own and base partizans' schemes to degrade our loyal town
of Chelmsford.
_

Chefin.yurd, Essex. • -
P.S. Three reasons will satisfy the Public that the Old Times
Correspondent is false in his account of Chelmsford Illumi-
nations—tit, That truly loyal Town neeu r yet allowed or sane-
Coned any Addresses to our IMMACULATE but CONVICTED
QUEBN !--2d, The loyal Inhabitants have recently given
a full proof of their zeal in support of King and Constitution,
by their unanimous dismissal from three leading Inns and
Reading Rooms in the County Town of the vile Old Times,
and substituted The Post and Sun in lieu thereof.-3d, Here
the Chelmsford Chronicle (a notorious Whig Paper,) has not
had the audacity to sanction the falsehood of the Old Times
Correspondent, respecting the proffered Illumination and to
the County of Essex this fact will sitealt volumes !—The Old
Times Correspondent should attend in future to SHAKE-
SPKA a's advice, and " tell truth and shame the
this seditious Writer can prove that the public offices, the re-
spectable inns, or the ..1c: and really lung established shop-
keepers in the Town (which on all honourable occasions here
do light up.) were on this last sad occasion illuminated, I
will their allow him to he every thing but what he now is,
eixj a-Promoter of Sedition, and a virulent and gross Impos-
tor. But, alas ! he verifies the expression that " a fool's
bolt is soon shot."

Yesterday evening, a very beautiful American
Schooner, laden with 540. hales of Tobacco, was
brought into our harbour, by the Dotterel. Sloop
of War, which vessel she had captured hovering
off our coast with the intent of smuggling her cargo.
Colonel McMahon, French Consul,. has return-
ed to this City from Paris. He has 'been autho-
rized to announce to all deserters from the French
Navy and Army,- that the- King, by an •-Ordi-
nance of the 4th of October, 'haS deigned 'to
grant them a free pardon on their re-joining.--,
And all those who shall present themselves to
him in this City, or to any of- the Ats of the
Consulate at Limerick, ,Waterford,_ Sc.Sz will re-
ceive a safe conduct to, France.--(Cork Advce-
tizer, Nov. 18, 1820.)
As the turnkey at Marlborough-street Police
Office was conducting five prisoners from that of-
fice to Newgate yesterday afternoon,, he was at-
tacked in Holborn by .a determined gang of.pick-
pockets and other ruffians, who heat him dread-
fully ; and notwithstanding•it was still daylight,
in a great public thoroughfare', and the prisoners
handcuffed in pairs and_chained altogether, they
-succeeded in rescuing the whole-of them.

and that_ being desolate, and without money or
knowledge of the language, or power of Making
themselves understood, they in all proba-
bility perish if some means were not taken to
'send them back to their native country. With
some difficulty an interpreter was found. , He is
a young American, who had been taken prisoner
by the natives of Owyhee, where he had gone in
a schooner called the Sieahorse, to procure. sandal
wood, with which that island abounds. The
following circumstances came out in• the course of
the evxamination:—

On Sunday last, the Clergyman who officiated
on board the floating Chapel, on the river Thames,
Observed two ForeignerS in the apparel of sea-
men, wha were very attentive during the perfor-
mance of Divine service, but who gave evident
symptoms of never having seen any thing of. the
kind before. 'The Rev. Gentleman niade dili-
gent inquiries, and found that they. were natives
of Owhyhee, that they had been brought to this .
country in an American ship, and had no friend
but a Mr. John Tudgay, sail-maker, and owner
of the Ship- and Pilot; public house, Wapping
High-street, who had been supporting them about
two months. Through the medium of an In-
terpreter, it was stated that the two warriors
had been fishing at some diStance from the shore,
in a canoe, with three others, and that an Ame-
rican schooner, which had touched at the island
for some of their valuable produce; bore down
upon, took them all prisoners, and sailed towards
Europe. In the Gulf of California a Spanish
vateer captured the schooner, and took the prize
and crew into San Josef, where the Spaniards
murdered two of the warriors' countrymen, and
made slaves of the warriors themselves. The
remaining poor strangers contrived to get posseS-
sion of a small Spanish canoe with paddles, rowed
into the ocean, and were never heard of More.—
After some time, during which they had worked
as slaves, an American Captain, who wanted
hands, was accommodated with the two warriors.
He promised to land them at Valparaiso, from
whence they could procure a passa2,-e home;
but he did not keep his word. He sailed on to
England, and in London he left them at the house
of the- person abovenainedi who has acted with
gieat humanity. The interdict of the East India
Company effectually prevents any of our &hips
from touching at the Sandwich Isles, and there=
fore, the only alternative the unfortunate men
have, is to obtain a passage to some country on
the Continent, which trades to China, or to de-
pend upon the charity of this metropolis. The
wish of the warriors is 'to return home. They are
extremely gentle, good hu.noured, and good na-
tured. Booze-oh-Hoe determined to adapt his ap- •
pearance to that of those into whose society he had
fallen..He therefore put on a jacket and trowsers,
and cut off his hair, which hung down to his
knees while he was amongst his countrymen.
Tuano did the same upon lauding. The former
is remarkable for his activity and strength, cart
hit a pint pot at the distance
.of fifty yards with
the point of his spear, and can dive to the got-'
tom of twenty fathom, water. The interpreter's
experience was purchased by great dangers and
fatigue. He is twenty-two years old, and. in
1817 had sailed in the Seahorse from Boston, his
native place, to Owyhee for sandal word. On
the arrival of the vessel he and four others were
sent ashore in a boat, but the moment they
reached land the natives seized the boat, upon
which the interpreter's companions jumped over-
board, and swam to the ship, while several of
the savages laid hold of him, and took him up the'
country about twe.oty miles on their shoulders:
As he was carried along the guns were fired from
the ship, but there was no loss of life in conse-
quence. He was imprisoned for six months; was
at first treated harshly, but as soon as he became
acquainted with the language, the greatest kind-
ness was eXtended -to him. Upon being set at
.liberty, he was.. tattooed by the Chiefs in the;
most beautiful manner about the body, sent
about naked, and if he had staid longer would'
have been tattooed in the face, the highest de-
gree of honour. He got a wire, and was made a
warrior, but he feared that if taken in war he'
would .be devoured by the victors, of which he
saw many examples ; and this terror co-operating,
during his stay with the recollection of • his mo-,
ther and brothers in America, determined him to
escape as soon as possible. An opportunity pre-
sented in the arrival of an American ship, and
he..contrived to steal on boatel. lie had since
met -with many disappointments and fatigues, and:
yesterday wished himself. back again in Owyhee. •
lie is the first European ii ho ever resided,
amongst the natives of the island.
The LORD. MAYOR said, the account of the'
two unfortunate warriors was extremely affecting.:
expressed his warm approbation cf the conduct.
of Mr. Tudgay and the .clergyman, but at .the
same time expresSed his apprehension; that them
was no fund to. be applied to .the case of, the .
poor strangers,_ except that which might spring.

P.ARLIAMENT,

HOUSE OF LORDS, THURSDAY, Nov. 23.

This day, at two o'clock, the House met pur-
l:mint to adjournment.
The Loan CHANctLLort, the Earl of LIVER-
roor,, and Earl "BATnuasT, sat upon the Wool-
sack as Royal Commissioners, in the name and
on the behalf of his Majesty. There were pre-
sent about tett Peers; including the Earl of Db-
Notionhouc and Lord ELLExnottouou.
The House of Commons having been pre-
viously summoned by the Black Rod, the .tipeaker.
'entered the House of Lords, attended by the
Serjeant at Arms and the other Officers, and
followed' by several Members of the , Lower
.

The Lone. CHANCELLOR then made known to
them that his Majesty had been graciously
-pleased to appoint a Commission, to impart the
Royal ASsent, to the Bill for relieving the Earl
of harboroukft from certain disabilities therein
named.
The Commission was, them read by the Clerk.
The Lotto CHANCELLOR then, in obedience
to the positiVe commands given by his :Majesty to
them as Commissioners acting in his Majesty's
name, declared and notified, to the House of
Cormaons that his Majesty gave his Royal As-
sent to the_ Bill mentioned in the Commission,
and that the said Bill would become a law in
like force and effect as if his Majesty had signi-
fied his Royal. Assent in person.
The Loan CHANCELLOR then announced, that
the Commissioners had it in command from his
Majesty to prorogue the Parliament to a certain
period .mentioned in the Commission for that
purpose.
The Commission, authorising the prorogation
of Parliament from Thursday, the 23d :of No-
vember, to Tuesday, the 23d of January, was
then read.

The Loin, CUAXCELLOR then said, " My
Lords and Gentlemen, in conformity with the
powers intrusted to us to act in his Majesty's
name, and in obedience to his Royal Commis-
bion for proroguing this Parliament, we do ac-
cordingly prorogue it to Tuesday, the 23d of
January next, to he then holden ; and this Par-
liament is accordingly prorogued to Tuesday,
January 23."
The Commissioners and-Peers. retired, and the
Speaker, and the Members of the House-of Com-
mons withdrew also.

No alterations have at present been made in
the arrangements below the Bar which were fitted
_up during the Queen's trial.

porary accommodation—but she nature' y expected that the
failure of that unparalleled attempt to degrade the Royal
Family, would be immediately followed by submitting seine
permanent measure, to the wisdom of Parliament—and she
has felt that she could no longer, with propriety, receive from
the Ministers what she is well assured, the liberality of the
House of Commons would have granted, as alike essential to
the dtgnity of the Throne, and demandedriby the plainest prin-
ciples of justice.
" If- the Queen is to understand that new proceeding/are
meditated against her, she throws herself with unabated con-
fidence on the Representatives of the People, folly relying on
their justice and wisdom, to take effectual Steps to protect her
from the farther vexation of unnecessary delay, and to provide
that.the;e unexampled persecutions may at length be brought

u a close."

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

Frankfort Gazettes to the 17th instant, and
other German Journals, arrived yesterday even-
ing.—The following are extracts
.CARLSRUBE; Nov. 11.—Our Gazette of the
9th contains the following passage, in an appa-
rently official article, respecting the trial of the
Queen of England:— ,
When Mr. Brougham, the Queen's Attorney-General,
speaks in this trial (on the affair of 'baron Von Ende) of a
German Despot, he insults the Prince of a cuuntry which is
in the possession of a free Constitution, the excellence of
in the most essential points, is universally acklow-
!edged, and will hardly be disputed in England. But if he
believes that witness to have been withheld by compulsion
,from appearing in his cause, he has reflected that neither
compulsion nor sickness arc necessary, lint that a sentiment

of disgust at such advocetes must keep every iuoral minded

European rilnote from that scene.'

TROPPAU, Nov. 6.—lt is stated, that a cou-
rier has been dispatched to Naples with the final
decision of the Cabinet.

GL CASSEL, Nov. 9.--It is 'well known that
the Elector has prohibited the Journalists of
Hesse,. upon pain ,of being fined and forfeiting
their licenses, from inserting any articles rela-
tive to Spain, the. Two Sicilies, and Portugal.
lie has extended this prohibition to all articles
containing Report's of the Trial of Queen Caro-
line of England, and in. which there are expres-
sions calculated to violate the respect due to
persons of elevated rank. Hithertoa (Yommissary
of Police had exercised the functions of Censor
of the Political Journal of Cassel, but he had
frequently suffered articles to pass which had not
had the approbation'of the Sovereign. It is now
affirmed, that the- Elector has just taken upon
himself the Censorship of our Gazette. Mr. !Li-
valier, one of his Councillors, is obliged daily to
read the proof-sheet to his Royal Highness, who
decides on those articles which shall receive the
ilitprimatur, and, those which are to be modified .or
suppressed.
" CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 26.—Fresh differ-
ences having arisen between the Schismatic and the
Catholic Armenians., the Sultan has appointed a
Tribunal to adjust them.' This Tribunal has
proceeded with great rigour and real barbarity.
Accusers and accused, guilty and innocent, were
put', to the torture. Three Bishops, one of
them a venerable old man of eighty-nine years,
Were beheaded, two other individuals were hang-
ed before the gate of the Patriarch;three bankers
bani Shed, and their property confiscated, by
which from twenty to thirty millions of piastres
have accrued to the Sultan's treasury. This
financial operation has, however, excited in Con-
stantinople great dissatisfaction with a favourite
of the Sultan's,
.because several Pashas, who had
placed their property in the hands of these
bankers, have 'lost their all. A. son of Baba
Pacha,. who, commanded the Turkish forces
against Ali Pasha,' has arrived here in a beauti-
ful English carriage, which his father has taken
from Ali.. The Sultan received this young man
very graciously, and appointed. him Chamberllin."
