PRIVATE. AND AUTHENTIC CORRESPONDENCE.

PARIS, SEPT. 21.—Though I know your poli-
tical principles to be diametrically opposite to
those of Mr. HUNT, yet I trust you are too im-
partial to be an enemy to his fair fame, and that
you will consequently admit in your columns the
glorious tribute to his worth, erected by the
authors of the new Vaudeville, called Le Magazin
des Cliape.rors. On the Paris hustings, twig° the
stage, I assure you Mr. Hu tit cuts a most distin-
guished figure; and instead of being hissed and
horsewhipped, as in London, he is here applauded
to the skies. Every time he opens his mouth it is
fol!owed by roars of laughter and loud clappiogs.
His otlame is a white straw hat, and two large
bumps on his forehead, caught by attacks of the
Dull. Nothing now is wanting to his fame, for
verse and pros'e are both called ip to immortalize
the Hero.

If report be true, there is sad havoc making
amongst the virtuous U/trds here. General Do:l-
-b:011;V is said to be suspended from his service,
and the humane and virtuous TRESTAILLONS, the
hero and champion of a London Paper; is artesteri.
I have collected several authentic dbcuments re-
lative to this man and the National Guard of
Nismes, which was foremost in the assassination
of the Protestants. I am promised more from
Nismes, theretore in a post or two, I shall he
able to shew what are the persons with whom
the London-Paper so tenderly sympathises.
A change, or rather changes, in the Ministry are
spoken of for the hundredth time; in fact, there
is not one of the Ministers themselves who is
not convinced of the necessity of it ; but then
who will be patriotic enough to turn out ?

COLONEL O'CONNELL.—This Gentleman died
a few days ago, in Quebec-street, Portman-
square, in the 76th year of his age. He was in the
I3runs wick Service, and Chamberlain to the Duke
of BRUNSWICK, who fell at the Battle of Jena.
In the first American War, he was Aid-de-Camp
to General Reidesel, under whose command he
distinguished himself as an high spirited and ek-
cellent Officer; and, at the beginning of the
French Revolution, he was in garrison with the
Brunswick troops at Maestricht, at the time
that Miranda was compelled to raise tire Siege
of the town and retire with the French Army.
He was born in Ireland, of a good family, h nit
was connected in blood with some of the noblest
houses of that country, which l►e left for Ger-
many early in life, and entered the Brunswick
service, through the interest and recommendation
of his maternal uncle, the late Colonel Anster
Fitzgerald ;• where he had the merit to deserve,
and the good fortune to obtain, the warm esteem
and patronage of the reigning Duke and Duchess
of Brunswick ; and, since their decease, of their
august Family. He lived respected by all who
knew him, as an accomplished Gentleman ; and,
what is an higher degree of praise, as an honour_
able and good roan The tear of friendship has
been shed upon his grave !
In consequence of the numerous depredations
Coannitted within these few days on the property
of the inhabitants of Hern Hill, Stockwell, &c.
by a gang of fellows that infest that neighbour-
hood, information was given at Union Hall, the
Magistrates of which Office immediately dispatch.
ed some Officers, who succeeded in taking into
custody r*ta men, in the very act of plundering
the grounds of Mr. BLADES, late Sheriff for Lon-
don and Middlesex. On being brought before
Mr. tVANCE at Union Hall, he convicted them,
as rogues and vagaboads, till the Sessions, and,
in the mean time, to be whipped a quarter of a
mile at Herr; Hill.—Pursuant to such sentence,

ing taken from the Gaol in Horsemonger-lane,
and conveyed to Hem Hill, where, in the presence
of the Sheriff and other Officers, the Sentence was
carried into effect.

between young Baldwin, sort of the celebrated
Caleb, and young Barron, son of the celebrated
knacker, took place inTothil-fickle, by candle light,
on Tuesday, for a subscription purse akiongst a
party of amateurs, who had dined at
Forty rounds were fought, at hit for hit, be-
tween these heroes of the bantant breed. Young
Caleb rolled in mischievously in his dad's style,
but BarrOn met him firmly, and both milled away
until they fell breathless in every round. Tithe
Was given for fetching wind, and to it they went
again, with claret streaming, until the spot re-
sembled the kuacker's stanghter-housot on a bunting
day. They kept up this game for three quartets
of an hour, with equal advantages, and some mo-
ney Was tvbn and lost at betting odds upon each.
Baldwin fought at a disadvantage the last
six rounds; manifesting much weakness, and he
Was ultimately obliged to yield to stye' ior weight.
Although Baldwin was defeated, be did not sully
the name,
