The Irish Papers of Monday last, rectived this
yeening, state the commencement of the trial of
st. Xntwor, one of the Catholic Delegates. In
or eagerness for the success of the cause, the Dub-
bEAlitors give a colouring to the manner in which
tie prosecution is conducted, which we think must
be overcharged. The following is the language of
te &Ma Evening Herald :
" Second Edition. —Herald Office—Five o'clock.

Monday, January 27. 1
'This morning the trial of Mr. KIRwAN cone-
roil in the Court of King's Bench, and this mo-
ot we have been informed that the following most
greceden ted circumstance in the history of Trial
jury transpired :
• It appeared that Sir CHARLES SAXTON selected
:ober of Names for the Sheriff, to be placed on
killed which were to try the Delegates.
• The circumstances that transpired were the fol.
inn:w—The Crown Solicitor applied to Mr. She-
idigira for a copy of the Panne!, which he refused.

topy somehow found its way into the hands
Oi seCnaturs SAXTON, who sent for and had a con-
fmee with Mr. rammts on the arrangement of the
Jan' Dames. The original list contained 115 names,
it at-educed to 102; several names were transposed
in the Fst, and some erased from it entirely. Sir
CflifILES SAXTON attended tie Court, but departed
therefrom without giving any explanation to redeem
h'schvacter or the Duke of RICHMOND's, whose Se.
crttiry he is, from the foul and damning imputation
of having attempted to procure a Jury of their own
choice to try the Catholic Delegate's.

Mr. ButtaowEs is now speaking to evidence on
the lactsalich have come out on the examination of
Mtssrs.kabus, sen. and jun. and Mr. Sheriff JAMES."
The Grand Jury of the County of Dublin have
' voted Rescdatious in favour of the repeal of the Union.
The following are the two chief Resolutions :
t Resolved unanimously, That we are convinced, from the
opulence of thirteen years, that the Art of Legislative Union
keno Great Britain and Ireland, has been, and must continue
tole, a close of Oppression to the Irish People—lnjurious to
~drCelamtrce—and Destructive to their Trade and Manufac-
ivo. _ _

" Imbed, That the Repeal of the Union Act, and a Grant
tip Prayer of the Catholic Petition, are both necessary to sup.
paths Strength, increase the Wealth, and to restore Peace, Or-
Gsed.will, and Unanimity, to this Empire."

-From private letters received yesterday from Awe.
lice, by the Lord Hobart packet, it appears that the
dr mania doefnot rage so violently as we have been,
led to suppose; all those intiamm story resolutions
htely brought forward, are probably only intended
to sire a tone to popular feeling, till Mr. MADISON
and his cotemporaries shall have finally succeeded in
securing their future elections.
It is asserted in these letters that the Administra-
tive have no serious idea of a war with this Country,
bet vrish to keep up the war fever until Congress rises,
taping in the interim to make a better bargain with
Me.Fosrstt; at the same time it is the general °pi-
ton that the 4g riltrictive ustena" will be continued,
sad no arrangement entered into with this Country,
Elcss the "Repeal of the Order: in Council" are made
the basis of the negociation.
British manufactures [says one of these letters]
allot so high here as are generally supposed ; fine
cloths are very plenty, and in fact are a drug in the
rarket- they have begun to manufacture in large
9antitles, aid the quaiity of some are superior to
:any usually ipinorted, which are afforded at prices
eve? to any from England, and which bear well on
craspatison.—Exchange is as usual, 16 to 17 per

Snare Philadelphia Papers assert, that the city of
trice had been stormed, and carried by the insur-
Pls. This statement is not credited.

Flom cur late files of American Papers, we ex-
tact the following interesting articles on the subject
J 6e Carracas and the West Indies :
" NEW SPANISH REPUDLlC.—Catracas Gazettes to
ela November, exhibit more the appearance of
he papers than any Spanish journals we have before
'tent and they breathe throughbat a genuine spirit
anulependence. The Spanish Cortes are handled
lib much severity; but they express good wishes
la the triumph cf the Patriot Cause in Spain. Oc-
tal MIRANDA, with a division of his army, arrived
kearracas the 28th October from the conquest of
alencia, and was congratulated by the Supreme'
Executive, as having deserved well of the country.

" PI-TTLADELPHIA, DEc.ll.
" BY Captain 111oFrarr, frr in St. Bartholomew's,
welearn, that the English men of war are continually I
taking the Drougers, who are bringing sugar from
Cuadaloupe and Martinico to St. Bartholomews, it
berg, as they term, a contraband trade. They have
c°l,dtmned no less than five at St. Thomas, and se..
ver.,l at Tortola ; one of w hich, a brig, was taken
tof the harbour cf St. Bartholomew's. The fate
of the Planters of the captured French i:lands is hard
'if they send their produce to England, it must b.:
l!tr)red for exportation, not being consumeable in Eng-
and ; and if it should after a time get out of the
wand, it is ten to one but the West Indian has to rut
up with a heavy loss for store-A.1,cl &c."..
