LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, JANUARY 5, 1829.

The news of Lord ANGLESEA'S recall has,
as might have seen expected, struck the Catholic
party with dismay. They see in it symptoms,
if not of the downfall of their hopes, at least of
theiel-etrograde movement, and will, of course,
be proportionably excited. Meanwhile they have,
through the medium of Mr. O'CONNELL, done

the amplest justice to the dexterously impartial
conduct of the Viceroy. They have appreciated
his full value, both as a man and as a Minister,
and expressed themselves towards him in terms
of such fervent, yet respectful affection, that
so long as a manly heart beats within him, his
Lordship can never forget them.

The Eagle, from Liverpool to Dingle, was run on board
of and sunk, the 27th ult. ; crew saved.

It will be observed that we have taken for
granted the fact of his Lordship's dismissal
or resignation, for this particular reason, that
though it be not officially announced, yet that
his letter is so diametrically opposed in spirit
to the Duke of WELLINGTON'S, that it is
impossible they can longer act in concert to-
gether.
.The Duke says to the Catholics, " bury
your question in oblivion," the Marquis re-
joins, " do no such thing, for it is impossible;
continue to press your claims zealously, but le-
gaily and submissively, or, depend upon it, an
ungenerous advantage will be taken of your for-
bearance." Under these circumstances, it is
manifest that one must have given way ; either
the Duke or the Marquis must have recanted—
a supposition too extravagant to be even dreamed
of. Meanwhile Ireland, we presume, is to be once
more given over, so far, at least, as Mini-
sters can do so, to the Ascendancy Men. Once
more are we to witness the rabid orgies of the
Brunswiekers; the exultation of the Beresfords,
the sufferings of the deeply-injured Catholics.
But most earnestly—from a firni conviction of
the consequences that must ensue—do we en-
treat the Government to beware how they play
or tamper with the sensibilities of Ireland.—
It is dangerous for children to play with
edge-tools : it is still more dangerous for
Ministers, from a paltry earnestness to pre-
serve themselves in place, to neglect the
intreaties and insult the sorrows of a nation of
indignant slaves. In Ireland a spirit has been
awakened which no brute force can allay. If,
during the rebellion of 98, when two coun-
ties only were disaffected, the flower of the
English troops had the greatest difficulty in
putting down the insurrection, what must be
the addition to their labours when a whole nation
is in arms ; a nation not :scattered or split into
factious, but organised to a man, panting for re-
venge, and determined to be free

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TwEr.rs o' CLocr.

The boisterous state of the weather has prevented any
arrival from France or Holland this morning, and two
Mails from the latter place are now due. A Flanders
Mail has, however, arrived, by which we learn that a loan
for the Russian Government, of 6,000,000 of guilders,
about 500,000/, has been contracted for by the house of
Hope and Co., at 99, and at this rate it already bore a
premium of 1 per cent. In the City this morning there
was a current report that Stephenson, the fraudulent
Banker, had escaped from Bristol in a small vessel on Tues-
day morning, and it was understood with the intention of
taking his chance of getting on board some larger vessel;
it was also added that a close pursuit had commenced after
him ; how far this statement is correct we cannot say,
but it is to be lamented the exertions hitherto used for his
apprehension have not been more successful. The private
letters from Lisbon con6rm the accounts front thence that
Mr. Matthews, the British Consul-General, had called a
meeting of the British residents at his own house (and not
at the English church as stated), in which he informed
them the Miguelite Government had given no reply with-
in the period limited of 30 days, in conformity with
his instructions, which demanded reparation for the
wanton acts of persecution which had taken place against
British subjects, and more particularly that which re-
quired the release Of Mr. Alenly, who still remains in
prison, and he therefore considered it his duty to warn
them to place their persons and property in safety.—
This, it was naturally supposed, would bring the point to
an issue between the two Governments; and it will now
be seen how far the British Government will take mea-
sures to avenge the studied insults which have been so la-
vishly heaped on his Majesty's subjects, in violation of the
existing treaties.' There was still a report of Miguel's
death, and that the bulletin which was issued of his
amended health was merely to keep every thing quiet, for
at the sailing of the packet, on the 23d, considerable alarm
exiated among the adherents of the absolute party.
Consols opened to-day at 87i 4, and have remained at

TWO O'CLOCK.

The French Papers of Friday, . and the
Gazette de France of Saturday, do not contain
any news of particular interest. The accounts from
the late theatre of war are, as usual, very contra-
dictory, partaking of the wishes of the respective
channels through which they emanate, rather than
from any regard for truth. Under these circum-
stances we may expect to be occasionally amused
with reported losses of the Russians, both by sea
and land, till the season arrives for opening the
campaign in due form.
The blockade of Algiers has dwindled down
to one ship ! This ridiculous inefficiency of
force has excited the natural alarm of the French
merchants, for the safety of their ships. The
French Government should either enforce the
blockade rigorously, or abandon it altogether.
An ineffective blockade will only serve to pro-
voke the contempt of the Algerines, while it be-
trays the French merchants into a false security.

Consols for a moment were 87i, sellers.
Cope, the City Marshal, proceeded to Devonport last
night, accompanied by two of the banking clerks of Re-
mington and Co, in search of Stephenson.

PETTY SESSIONS.--(THIS DAY.)

Mr. PLT ILVIS, Captain Toxins/sox, and Mr. BECKETT,
the Magistrates, held an adjourned Petty Sessions this
morning at the Workhouse, Little Gray's-inn-lane, for
the purpose of hearing the C 1929 of the occupiers of Cham-
bers in Lincoln's-inn, who still persist in their refusal to
pay the Poor Rates demanded of them by the Parish of St.
Andrew, Holborn. About eleven o'clock, the time ap-
pointed, the roam was considerably crowded with Bar-
risters and Attorneys who had been summoned, all of
whom complained that the present proceeding was harsiland
unjust. Several of them had purchased their Chambers
several years since, and had never been called upon -to pay
rates, and they were now taken by surprise.
Mr. SMI iv, Counsel for the parish, said he must repel
with indignation what was alleged against the parish as to
the claim being unjust, and the proceedings vexatious ; it
was quite the reverse ; and be was mere surprised to hear
his Learned friends (Mr. Pemberton, Mr. Phillimore, and
others), say they were taken by surprise, when the claim
had never ceased being litigated for these last six years."
A warm and somewhat angry discussion then enstmed,
which at length ended by the Magistrates again adjourning
time Sessions until Friday next, when 14 cases, in which
the parties have been summoned ever since the 22,1 of Sep-
tember, among whom are the Lord Chancellor, the At-
torneysCieeerel, and several distinguished barristers, will
be decided.
There appears to be little prospect pf any compromise
between the parties; the occupiers of chambers semi 07
termined to dispute the ground, inch by inch, with the
parish, in every individual case, and they threaten to try
the validity of every single rate that hag, or may hereafter,
be made. The parish perceiving this :disposition, on
Thursday het summoned the whole of the persons whom
they con Sider ought to pay the rates, amounting to no less
a number than one hundred and fifty individuals, all of the
legal profession. It appears that part of Lincoln's-Inn
belongs to the parish of St. Clement Danes, and that many
years since they had a similar dispute with time then occupiers
of chambers in that parish, but in 1773 the parish obtained
a verdict in their favour, ever since which that part of the
Inn, has regularly paid the poor-rates; and the parish of
st. Apilyaw are determined to compel the other party like-
wise to enekriisnte towards the support of the poor, and
complain of the deterips ined sod yexatious manner in which
the claim is resisted ; they wished the W4n)e of the cases
look out for hm, sza that if he has not actually to be decided by any five or six that could be agiee; nags:.,
left the country, the chalices arg
,c,lai increasing but no, say the Society of Lincoln's Inn, we will dispute
,ly
every single case on its own merits, and if you distrain,
against him. I ,fire will each of us replevy ; thus the case at present stands.

Lisbon Gawites to the 23d December have been
received. They state that a bulletin has been
issued, signed by four physicians, 4nnpuncing the
complete recovery of Don MIGUEL. The fracture
had re-uuita without leaving any deformity ;
and a few days would, 'it was expected, enable
MiGuEt. to leave his bed with perfect
security. If all this be true his .:Ilajesty is
not dead yet. The same course of tyranny is
daily exercised towards the subjects of this
ptintry as to those of Portugal.

It is rep oKe4 tlpg some clue of STEPHEN..
SON'S course has been obtAspe(l in the Bristol
Channel.

He is said to have embarked on Tuesday from
