THE THE

COVENT-G. RDEsT.--Lpzie in a Village,- one of
the established favourites of the Public, and not
likely ever to be out of its favour; was last night
represented at this Theatre. Mr. Hoax, who
originally came forward at the English Opera
House, appeared in the part of Young Meadows.
He is certainly improved in singing and as an
Actor. His voice is more powerful but not less
sweet, and he Manages it with increased judg_
merit. His deportment is more easy, and seems
to result from feeling, without any attempt at
elaborate grace. His person is
_improved in sub-
stance, and, altogether, his importation from the
Dublin Stage is creditable to the Covent• Garden
Manager. Miss GREEN' was the Rosetta, and
she acted with simplicity, but not with
.the spirit which the part required. An al-
lowance ought, however, to be made for
want of practice in so juvenile an Actress.—•-
FAWCETT was humorous, and not extravagant, in
Justice Woodcock, and Mrs. DAVENPORT, a very
good Actress, but somewhat too violent on all
occasions, gave all .due support to Aunt Deborah.
EMERY'S Hodge was a true portrait of rustic,
bluntness, and, was well relieved by his gallantry
towards Rosetta. Miss BEAUMONT was spirited and
interesting in poor Madge, and proved herself to
he a good Actress.—The Opera was followed by
a new ballet, entitled Annette and Lubin, a
mere vehicle for the dancers, and it was very
creditable to the audience that they received with
great applause those Foreign Performers' of high
merit in their poofeSsion, who were left in a pi-
tiable state by the sudden close of the King's
Theatre.' The liberal feelings of the Manager,
on the occasion, are likely to be rewarded by
the success attending this agreeable and elegant
addition to the general amusements of his The-

SHERIFFS' DINNERS.—II is usual for the Se-
nior Sheriffto give'a dinner on the day of inau-
guration, and for the Junior Sheriff to give a din-
ner on the day after Michaelmas day, when they
are presented and sworn at Westminster be-
fore the Barons of the Exchequer, whom it
is customary to invite. No dinner was how-
ever given yesterday, but cards of invi-
tation are out for a splendid entertainment on
Saturday, at the joint expense of both the Sher-
iffs, who are on that day sworn at Westminster.
We are informed that it is the intention of the
Sheriffs to bear their usual, share of the expenses
of the Lord Mayor's dinner, and to give the cus-
tomary dinners at the Sessions, but no other
entertainments. The reasons given for these
innovations on ancient customs, - as they are
called, are, that every Sheriff has a right
to determine the expense to which he will
go, and that the Livery ought not to expect
Gentlemen, who take upon them to execute pub-
lic offices upon public principles, to give feasts
for great City Officers, who have hitherto par-
taken of such entertainments as a matter of right,
without considering themselves under the slightest
obligations to the donors ; and that on such oc-
casions the Sheriffs are preclude& from inviting
more than a dozen or twenty of their private
friends.—(Morning Paper.)
ST. PAUL'S CATILEDRAL.—TheDean and Chap-
ter of St. Paul's have resolved that this splendid
Metropolitan Church shall undergo a thorough
repair. A number of the windows, which were
much dilapidated, have been removed, and new
ones substituted. To those who have not seen
the interior, it would be utterly impossible to
convey any: idea of the miserable state in which
it was kept. The beautiful monuments of John-
son, Howard, Sir Wm. Jones, Lord flood, &c.
were so completely covered with dust, as to ren-
der it difficult to judgb of what marble they were
made ; and even in some instances the inscriptions
were almost illegible. Some attention ought
also to be paid to the flags suspended round the
dome, which are much defaced with dust and
cobwebs.

UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.---Yesterday there
was a Convocation of the Senate for the purpose
of conferring upon the Earl of Guilford, Chancel-
lor of the lonian University, the Degree of
Doctor' of Laws. The grace having passed the
Caput, his Lordship was presented to his De-
gree by the, Rev. Dr. E. D. Clarke., acting as De-
puty Public Orator, who addressed the Senate
in a Latin speech on the occasion.—( Cambridge,
Sept. QS.)

Advices from Holland, received by way of
Paris, state that, on tl-n.! arrival of the intelli-
gence at Amsterdam of the recognition by the
Cortes of the debt due by Spain. to the Dutch
GOvernment, stock, which was previouslyat
34, suddenly doubled itself in value, and rose
to 68. The resolution of the Cortes provides
for the regular payment of tue ini.erest, and the
future discharge of the principal of the debt.
Lord CLANCARTY, British Ambassador to the
Court of the Netherlands, has left the Hague
for Brussels.

Ma. Enrroit-,---Frorn the length Of the probes.

Understood that it was only the Iphabitants of $,

Ladies' Barouches with outside passengers, quite
as'yespectable as those within, only that they
were not quite so elegantly dressed. In one car-
riage I saw, with great satisfaction, the portrait
of that dear man BERC-AMI, without whom the
fair Creatures must have -missed thuir ride and
public exhibition, so populously cheered by all
the boys and elea°antes of every alley in their
route. Many of these carriages were deprived,
of the aristocratic luxury of black.varnish, so as
to be quite as unpolished as their occupants; but
the most appropriate part of the procession was
a white-wash Cart, which* it is probable, may
be useful both to Addressers and tb Address'ee.

POLITICAL EQUALITY.

Q. .Why has the Radical, compared with the
Loyd PRESS, superior influence over the Public
mind ?—A. Because the Loyal Press has Wit
withnut Virulence ; whilst the Radical has Viru-
lence withoUt •Wit. The vulgar, who cannot
understand the one, can yet feel the other. The
Loyal lament the smallest point of degradation
in any man, or set of then, as, a general evil ; but
Radical minds consider, every point of degrada-
tion in others, as a point gained in their own
favour. 'Tis only a branch of the Levelling
system in France, which sought to bring things
to a level, by debasing all things equal with the
lowest.—But our Old English principle is dif.'
ferent=not to Level, but to bring.to a Level L—to,
raise, not to depress !

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

Ma. EDITOR-I beg to send you the follow-,
kg Botanical Anecdote, as ati Useful hint for our
Countrymen now settling at the Cape, and who
may- chuse to speculate in the cultivation of vine-
yards.

The Dutch Governor, Von der, STRT, who first
planted the famous vineyard of Constantia, was
anxious to select a portion of ground which
should contain the smallest portion of Salt, so
general in the Cape District. To ascertain this,
he adopted the simple experiment of taking up
portions of the soil in different places, steeping
them in water, then draining and evaporating the
solution, which pointed out Constantia as the
most judicious spot for his purpose.
Similar experiments may be of high importance
to our new Settlers----May their speculations be
succesQal.

The Merchants of Liverpool, with that com-
mercial enterprise for which they have always
been conspicuous, are now embarking with great
spirit in the New South Shetland Fishery ; four
ships have already sailed from that port, and three
others are ready to proceed with the first fair
wind.

There are now at the Royal Hotel, Plymouth,
the Commissioners of the Navy and Victualling
Board, on Surveys of the Establishments at that

into the different Public Charities in that town.

Mrs. Cotrr,, on the late 'Anniversary of the

fordshire, above fifty in number, of which county
this benevolent lady is a native. The greatest
harmony and conviviality prevailed ; the health
of Mr. and Mrs. COUTTS was drank with loud
cheers, and dancing concluded the happiest day
ever known within those walls.

All ranks in society are looking forward, with
intense anxiety, to the resumption of the pro-

Next. Public attention, however, is not entirely
wrapped up in this subject, as another event, in
which they are also deeply interested, occur
on Thursday, when Two Prizes of XlO,OOO will
be decided in the First. Five Minutes; and al-
thoUgh 4500 Tickets will be drawn that Dav, all
will be Prizes. This extraordinary Lottery also
contains Two Prizes of 2'20,000, Two Prizes

Money.

FIRE.—A most dreadful fire broke out at Mr.
FISHER'S, corn-dealer, in the Broad-way, West-
minster, at half-past twelve o'clock last night,
which consumed the same, and three other ad-
joining houses, in the occupation of Mr. Ho LLANO,
a potatoe-merchant, Mr. COOK, who keeps a
cook's-shop, and Mr. FISIIEIt, a surgeon, the
whole of which are totally consumed. The Castle
public house is much damaged, and some houses
in Castle-court, at the back of the premises.
Most of the inmates were with much difficulty,
saved from the devouring flames ; Mr. HoLLAND
was taken out, by force, by Mr. HILL, and Mr.
P. SMITII, Mr. 11. declaring that he-would sooner
be burnt with his money than leave it behind.
Miss lit:lL-LAND and the servant-maid were also
brought out by the same Gentlemen, and taken
to the house of Mr. 11n1., opposite.. The lower
part of the fronts of Mr. grurru's, Mr. Thu.'s,
and Mr. WALLS' houses are much damaged, and
must have been-consumed, bad the wind upt
have shifted from the north-west to the soutt-
east.—The County Engine was the first on the
spot, and is somewhat damaged by the fall of one
of the front walls ; but no lives are lost.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS.

.. [Morning Chronicle.]
The LETTER from Count GALOWKIN (see Tiir
SUN 'of4esterda.y), communicating to the Prince
Ciraitelli-San-Severino the refusal of the Russian
Court 'to receive as Ambassador from the nsw
GoVert:meat of Naples,•does not surprise us. It
Was not to be expected that the founder of the
Holy Alliance would condescend to receive-an
Ambassador from a Government established on
the 'fcnadatien of the right of the people to have
a voice in their oun affairs. The Holy Alliance
was set. oa foot for the express purpose of pre-
venting all political changes beneficial to the peo-
ple; and for gradually lopping off all existing de-
inac•atical excrescences, to borrow the language
of Count litml Schewenstein. This is the -real
object of it, and we have no doubt that its Mem-
however Much they may occasionally di:ler
among themselves in oilier respects, will always
agree as to the exv"diency of retaining the people
in a state of degradation. Naples has nothing to
hope for froi n the Allied, Sovereigns. Whether
the Neapolitans have any thing to fear from them
is a. more difticult qttestion. We should:think,
however, if 'they are' onty true to theniselveS.,
they may set the military monarchies, as Lord
Cattereagh termed them, at defiance. Austria
and kt ussia may spew their teeth, but will hardly
venture to bite. A crusade against Naples
would be a very .dilferent thing from the
late invasions of France. The people then
thronged to the standard of their Kings, be-
et:use they bt‘lie'ed they had a common cause, bUt
this belief they have long since renounced.
None but slaves Will now take the field against
the Neapolitans, and the history of modern. as
Well a..ancient tithes has proved, that -when, the'
p'Opnlation' of an extensive country take arils in
their own cause, they.are 'seldom overcome he
want of experience in sut'h a case is more' than
compensated for by the enthusiasm which Sup-
plies its place. Austria, too, knows full well the
precarious -tenure- by which she bolds her own
pt.);-tion of Italy-,
,and the consequences with
which
,any reverse would not fail. to be attended.
IA the Meantime the example set by the Spa-
niards, Neapolitans and Portuguese, will not be
thrown away. The Austrian. and Russian. Fol-
diers may- yet be fit instruments of despotism,
but there are' other armies in Europe, beside
those of the Peninsula and Naples, who feel that
they have a country. The suppression of Mason.
Lodges, and the unjust imprisonment and sacri-
fice of their brethren in arms, will not, we should
think, Mend the matter much.
'Sir Glatatto NOEL, a fey,- days since, received
a letter lVani. the Gentleman who proposed him
as the. Member 'for Rutlandshire at the last Elec-
ti4-, pi, intirnatii!g, in very strong terms, - his disap-,
probation of Sir (3erard's refusal to".supp. e t the
measure now in progress against her Majesty the
Quen. Sir' Gerard Noel replied, immediately,
that if his Correspondent mould convene a
Meetingof the County, and it should appear
that his Constituents- entertained the same opi,
be would resign his seat, and, give them an
opportunity of electing a. Representative more
submissive to their wishes. The Worthy Gen-
tleimtn farther Observed, that, much 'as he might
esteem the friendship of his Rutlandshire sup-
porters, be could 'not forget that he was.ruore in-
terested in keeping upon good terms h him-
se 1'; that accident might deprive him of the
association of his, friends, bat,that the good .opi-
nion of his own conscience ought to be his corn,
panion, whetlt r in the solitude of retirement, or
in the bustle of the world. Sir Gerard Noel
further &Oared that his objection' against the
proposed measure was firm and Unalterable. He
denied .the right. of the House of Lords to insti-
tute such an inquiry ; and' that 'even had the
Queen beep as gtiilty as he was 'convinced she
was 'innocent, he should have been proud ,to give
a proof of his attachntent'to the princiPles of -the
Constitution, by resisting such a daring encroach-
ment upon the rights of the people.—(lbid.)

• [Morning Post.]
Anvicrs from the MEDITERRANEAN reached
us yesterday. betters from' Genoa contain the
important intelligence, if ithe correct, that ac-
connts had .been received at that place previous
to the . 17th inst. announcing . the surrender of
Palermo to the fleet which had sailed a short
time before from N;;ples with 8,,000 troops on
board. No particulars were added with respect
to the manner in Which the surrender had been
obtained. A's it .is scarcely possible, after all that
had-taken place, that the Palermitans should sub-.
mit without an obstinate resistance ; and as no
mention' is made of a bsttae, we are inclined to
beliei'e the report preMafure, if not entirely.un-
founded. It would, indeed, be gratifying to
learn, that without atcy farthe.r effusion of blood,
thi. Sicilian Rebels' had returned to their duty.
But we'fear this is a consummation,. more " de-
yoUtly to be wished," than to be confidently hop-
ed' for ;- and- that Much time elapse and
mtch.devastation 'ensue, ere" the peace and pros
perity of 'the once rich and beautiful island'Of
Sicily shall revive. .Revolutions are easily
commenced.'-`.. Like :Heaven's lightning-, they
strike, -and they-.

lightning, they alsg...-leave in their course shat-
tered trunks.and hlighted bra?ches, to . which

Made strong and'successful drafts to re-establish
her,' dlTavy. A4,vices from Tangiersinforru us that
another dilige rine 4,,quad ion has ixtssed through the
Streigh6iof Gibraltar, but without stating its, de-
stivation.. This is the
.second which . in. a'short
time has put to sea ; but' as. we have not heard of
al4yAepredations committed by the.former, it is
ter-he hoped that.therare only sent out 'to exer-
cise- the sailors, and that the terrors of the salu-
tairlesson which we taught the A lgeriness:are
still too fresh in their mindS 'to-permit them tore-

sume their piraticaleourses. The :Cllowinr, is r:ii
extract of a. Letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at
Gibraltar, dated the..7th of September
" By advice!: to-day front Tangier, it appears that an Al-
gerine squadron, consisting of tyro corvettes 'and a schooner;
posed these Straits to the west Wald. On the 4th instant, a
corvette. of esi guns, stood into Tangier, but immediately
joined the others and made sail."

[British Pres.]
It musty we think,''prove extremely gratifying
to the public in' general to he informed, that a
prominent MEMBER f the MiNisTEß.lar. PRESS'
has at length residved,to put himself forward as
a umral teacher, and correct the contagion of vi-
cious-principles. There is a good Old proverb,
" Never too late to-mend)" Ivhielf will occur to
the minds °lour reader's on receiving this piece
of information. The journal to which we refer
has, since the commencement of the proceedings
against the Queen, laboured so strenuously by
e,: my means to Undermine the moral character
of the country, that it will no doubt proVe ex-
tremely irksome to it, at first to support its novel
character, The: proceedings against the Queen
in themselves offer a
.violence- to the first prin-
cii)les of moral rectitude, for they contravene the
institutions of the-State, which have their founda-
tions in justiee,'and are opposed to the doctrines
of ourholy religion ; yet these proceedings haVe
been violently supported by our new moralist'.
Justice and honour required that no . effort
should be made, pending- the 'proceedings, to
injure the cause of the accused, or to influ-
ence the passions and prejudices of her judges
against her ; yet this has been don-6 by the
moral teacher, by giving instant publiCation:
fo every cruel outrage upon her character,
evety unmanly taunt, covert Ffisinuation, open
Charge, und direct falsehood: iftw public morals
have-been endangered by theinclecency/Of the
evidence adduced ; yet upon the most filthy and
disgusting portions of it has our moralist uniformly
dwelt with a kind of chuckling delight;: as if he
hoped toincrease its. pernicious effects by repeti-
tion. lle has laboured with unceasing diligence
to shake' the eternal barrio-1s that. divide truth
from falsehood, and endeavoured to render the
public 'mind.indifferent to the reception of either ;
yet after having trafficked so largely in irreligion,
injustice, calumny, indecency, and falsehood, he
now assumes the plaCid air of innocence, smooths
down his sleek hair over his forehead, if he has
any, and with the demure and devout look of
sanctified hypocrisy, assures his readers that he
will assume the vindication of the public morals.
In couninenting- his moral essays he apprises us of
the qtvalities which are indispensable in under-
taking so- vast a labour, and though Ills
.hints
are in other respects of very little value, they
will do well enough,-to be applied to him-
self. Ale says, very properlv—" When indivi-
duals step forward to vindicate the morals
of the country, and to arraign at their tribunal
all whom they accuse of profligacy, the country
'has a right to ask, whoand what areyou ? Are you
honourable men, in the relations of social life
Do your own examples fortify your precepts,
and illustrate your advice? The reproof of an ho-
nest man, like the censure of a virtuous woman,
carries a just weight with it. But who would
listen to the pious exhortation of a prostitute ?
And who ought to heed the moral lessons of men
without morality ?" Such questions may, with
great propriety, be addressed to a Treasury writer,
who having by every means endeavoured to cor-
rupt the public mind, and pollute the,sourc.e of
justice, will voluntarily' place himself in the moral
chair, and discourSe of puri‘y, integrity; and
honour.

[The Times.]
We wish every one of his Ku-Es:Ws Mix's..
TEES might but have seen the procession of Sr.
LUKE'S PARISH yesterday, to address the QUEEN
at Brandenburgh House, and then they would
have known from their own observation what
character or class-of people it is that comes forth
in such shoals to condole with insulted Royalty.
The procession of which we are speaking con-
sisted of 52 post-coaches and four; that number
exactly passed Hyde-park-corner; and the per-,
sons who filled them,maleand female,may be taken
as the best sampir of substantial British tradesmen,
their wives and daughters. There were 2 postilions
to each carriage, the major part in blue jackets ;
but there was likewise a. train consisting of seve-
ral carriages.,.the postilions of which were dressed
in yellow satin, These were said, by the attend-
ing crowds, to come from -the neighbourhood. of
Spitalfields; but we should not suppose the pa-
rish of. St. Luke to extend solar. . But one such
procession as this, could one such have taken
place at Paris, would have silenCed all the
odious clamours against the unfortunate Queen
of that country ; but the Queen of England has
received hundreds of the same kind ; and never
did they pour in so,fast as since the exposition of
the detestable evidence agai'ust her Majesty,—
and the people of this country have read the evi-
dence : the inference, therefore, is obvious,—
that in their conviction it, falls.to the.ground of
-itself—that it is wholly baseless, creditless, Ain-
deserving attention. Who is it then, we askt
that the. further prosecution of the Bill now, in,
Parliament is meant to satisfy ?. We are assured
by two gentlemen who attended the late meet-
ing at the Freemasons' tavern, that they, though
used to he present at assemblages for many years,
had, never seen any so respectable for numbers and
appearance united... They compared
.the charac-
ter of the'people,. judging. from .their exterior, to
that of those who usually attend Bible meetings,
but -their numbers infinitely greater. It is the
specific object of the Address voted at this nret-
ing4O " congratulate the. Queen on the
.close .of
the case.,against her :" We Solicit attention to that
fact—and the Address is to. be presented on
Monday. We !lbw," therefore,. this preceding
Friday, invite those, if any such there are, who
are in their hearts:hostile to the Queen, and have
been induced by the !falsehoods and filthy buf-
foonery of\ the papers .hostile (from the absence
of principle, but the, presence of bribes) to her
Majesty's cause, merely to themselves
any where 'in the Way where this; proceslion
shall pass, and. then ask themselves Calmly

whether Addreste as these are fabricat-
ed „exaggerated .thingS, or whether -they do
not' speak the sentiments of the people of Eng-
land in a voice that cannot be misunder-
stood 2 We call attention, as is our custom,
to facts, and not to reasoning or assertiOn.-7----
Let the world, who read this, argue' from those
facts
.for themselves. The Procession of the
Watermen takes place next Tuesday ; we are
told that it will consist of upwards of ten th?u-
sand. We give this as a. report : let doubters go
near the River, and 'observe : we suspect that
they will be in the situation of the unbeliever
mentioned in the Scripture, who, ping into a
vast congregation of real worshippers, was con-
vinced of all. The truth is, that, from the foun-
dation of the British Monarchy fo the present
day never Ring sat upon the Throne who was so
numerously and _so cordially addressed, in ac-
cents of. condolence or congratulation, even
'during his whole reign, as has already been this
most extraordinary woman, on what the whole
land conceives to be the defeat of the conspiracy
against her. - •
The details of the PROCEEDINGS of the CORTES,
contained in the Papers received yesterday, record
an act of justice highly honourable to the Spanish
nation. In the sittin of the 12th instant was read
the Report of the Committee of Rewards On the
case of Pablo Lopez, commonly called " The Lame
Man ,of Malaga," who wasTondenmed to death
in 1t414, and had actually been imprisoned six
years in a dungeon at Cadiz, whence he was re-
leased by - Riego. One of the charges against
him, for which the punishment was inflicted: was
his having assisted at serenade given to. some
members of the Cortes in 1814, and which was
supposed,. to, have I;.een projected by him ; and
another, -t n! constagt attendance he was in 'the
habit of giving• to:, the debates.. of the Cortes, at
one- of which heryas accused of creating a, distur-
Lance. EVen these :Charges, frivolous as they
'ivere, were dc,iied by Pablo Lopez ; and the
officer attendant on the gallery of the Cortes de-
clared him to have had no share in causing the
riot. allUded to. The accusation was not at-
tempted to be supported by evidence of any kind.
The CoMmittee of Rewards, with the object not
only of hiderunifying him for the injuries he had
suffered, bUt of rescuing the nation from the re-
proach of having inflicted them., recommended
that a grant should be made to Lopez from the
public funds, to the amount of 70,000 or 80,000
reals (7001. or 8001. sterling), for the purpose of
building a house for him in Malaga, his native
.place, and that an annuity for life should fur-
ther be given to hitn of the value of 8000 reals.—

[llew Times.]

If we could give credit to PRIVATE LETTERS
received yesterday from NapLrs, we should
think that the Revolution' there was drawing
rapidly to a close.--7--They say that an army of
40 or 50,000 Austrians is already. upon their
frontier, and that a battle may soon_ be ex-
pected. The Decrees of the Revolutionary Go-
vernment, calling all the old soldiers of Murat
into active service, prove nothing but desperation.
If the Austrians are so near and advancing, there
is an end of the Revolution ! The Neapolitans
will' not stand a single battle. We own our ap-
prehensions are very different. The Allies,have
hitherto givn eve,ry advantage to the Revolu-
tionists, by an unwillingness to attack, and a fear
to irritate. It is hardly probable "that the Aus-
trians will venture to deviate singly from this
policy : and if they wait for the concurrence of
other Great Powers, much time must elapse
before they can strike a blOw.
We are happy to perceive that the NEW SHE-
III'FFS declare their fixed intention not to let any
political inclinations interfere with the ministe-
rial dutiesof their office. Such a declaration does
them great credit, more particularly at a moment
when political irritation is elsewhere carried to a
violent extreme. The election of a Lord Mayor,
which takelplace to-day at the Common Hall,
will, we trust, be carried on upon principles
of similar prudence and moderation. It would
be a source of endless annoyance to the City
of London,• if the Civic Chair should be an-
nually made. the object of a long, trouble-
some, and expensive contest. W believe that
the respectable members of each party are fully
convinced of this truth, and anxious to return to.
that regular course of rotation which has in one
or two instances been unfortunately violated. If
a few turbulent individuals endeavour to resist
these moderate counsels, we trust that the good
sense of the Livery assembled this day will frus-
trate the attempt, and suffer only the twa can-
didates to be returned to the Court of -Aldermen
for their choice, who would be.so in the .001110011
order of things. These Gentlemen we take ,to
be Alderman lleygate and Alderman Cox ; for
Alderman Magnay, who stands next to the
Chaiq has declared by a public advertisement,
" that it will not be,until the ensuing year that
he can solicit the 'stiffrages of the Livery with.
the hoPe of being able .properly to discharge
the duties of that high station :" and as the same
grounds were admitted to be valid last year, they
probably will on the present occasion; Alder-
man Heygate also pleads,,it is true, some domes-
tic reasons for wishing to postpone ,his- nomina-
tion till next year ; bat as he at the same time
deprecates the idea of " shrinking in times of
animosity from a public duty," and as Ids 'al-
-1 legation amounts only to " inconvenience," the
Livery will hardly think it affords sufficient,
reason for deviating still further tWnn tl/e
course, of rotation. It 'is very _probable tha'
-every Alderman in the succession may find the
arduous duties of the mayoralty attended with pri-
vate inconvenience. However, the Livery will
act-most wisely in leaving the particular circum-
stances of the case to the Court of Aldermen, by
returning for their option Mr. Alderman Bev-
gate and Mr. Alderman Cox. A numerous -at.
tendance for this purpose at the Common Hall
to-day is highly. desirable, as the turbulent indi•
'victuals above-alluded to will otherwise
,endea.
voot to involve the business of-the day in confu,
Ron, and occasion the necessity of a poll.
