On Wednesday, at five in the af!ernonn, a-rived.
at North-fleet, his Majesty's ship Nci.soas, of 120

To::. It was a mint gratifying sight to thousands
of anxious Spectators, including the inhabitants (.f
Woolwich and its environs, assembled At the Dock-
yard and Arsenal, to witness the departure, and to
take leave of their favourite, NELSON. The moment
she was cast off, they gave her duce cheers; AMt
with all sail set, a fresh breeze carried !ler in majestic

About four o'clock on Wednesday morning, 'some
villains found means to enter die vestry.roun of Pad-
dington Church, and took away two large deal chests,
containing the parish records, accounts and plate.—
As soon as the robbery was discovered, the parish
officers attended at Bow-street, and gave information
to Mr. Thrum, the Sitting Magistrate, stating that it
was not the plate they were anxious about, that being
only plated, and therefore of little value, but they were
anxious to recover the papers, which consisted of the
parish records and accounts for three hundred years
past, and which, if I:,st, could not be replacAl. The
Magistrate, from* the circumstances attending the rob-
bery, suspected the thieves were not persons of expe-
rience in their profession, and dispatched Taunton to
endeavour to trace them, and recover the lost property.
Taunton, in going to the spot, found that the villains
had entered the vestry-room by means of a skeicton-
key. He also succeeded in tracing the thieves from
place to place, till he at length discovered them in an
outhouse at no great distance from the Church, The
chests had been opened, and the thieves, deceited by
the glittering appearance of the plated plate, had taken
it away, but the records remained, and were restored
to the parish officers.
At the Cornwall County Meeting 1 ist week, at
which an Address was voted to the RECANT on the
Peace, the question whether the County Meetings
should be composed of all taxed inhabitants, or only
of Nobility, Clergy, Gentry, and Freeholderi, occa-.
sioned some discussion. A requisition for a meeting
at large had been signed by great numbers, 'but re-
fused by the High Sheriff. Lord De Dtniarrilott tee
contended that such meetings were contrary td usage,
and that it would be difficult to ascertain• tato wire
persons not paying cases, since every' one paid t.ixes
either directly or on articles of consumption. Hence
a County Meeting would ct:nsist of the whore popu-
lation, it would be in: its worst sense untvehal
suf-
frage; for as the populace would not ceniefroin dis-
tant parts, the genie of theCouaty nouldipiassunied
by the mob of the tow,. where the auritingAas held.
He insisted, that County ts leetiars should ConsisL cf
the Nobility, Gentry, Clergy, Freeholders. A
public meeting, he maititApetl, should possess apt
only the power to decide, but the ability to deliberate
on the subjects brought before it ; and woollany one
belie that a meeting composed of all tf.at paid taus
was competent to such deliberations'
