FROM THE NOBLE DUKE TO THE FLOWER
OF CONNAUGHT.

My dear Flow', of Connaught—your letter came duly,—
Jack Lawmo—that wonderful man—gave it in ;
It pains one to Ind you so loud and unruly,
After all I've effected to silence your din.
You said thro' your champion, O'Conszt., you wanted
Mere freedom of conscience to stay you from crime ;
And now that your clamorous wishes are granted—
You swear 'twas your stomachs you meant all the time.
But have not your chiefs found their way to our Senate?—
Arch wags—knowing well what fine pickings are there ;
They long d to get footing—and now they are in it,
What need you complain that yoo're hungry and bare?
Yoe cry out for bread, friend—but where shall I find it ?
It is not for me people's wants to provide ;
You may make a row—but I'm shot if I'll mind it,
I've hard work enough with all Europe beside.
Yoe said in your first,—that your person wants breeches.—
The summer is rainy—you need not walk out ;
Or smear yourself thick in the mud of your ditches.
Like tightfitting mourning 'twill wrap you about.
'Tie laid you want trade—why, improve that in relics ;
You want manufactures—go, fabricate turf ;
And money !—you fool,—why. 'ti, money so well makes
The diff'reoce existing 'twist Master and Cerf.
You swear at the taxes,—'tis Christian to bear them;
You vow the new Freeholds elective—are dear ;
Persuade then the rich to consent that you share them—
And, thus, all the world will he voters, 'tis clear.
You say you are starving to death,—oh ! you glutton !
Fed freely with fresh Apostolical grace ;
If, however. your maw scorning Lent, yearns for mutton,
Why not eat each other ?—You poor sheepish race.
An Irishman curd must make very good bane, Sir,—
♦ fellow, if fat, might support one a week ;
Then haste to catch Paddies.—make merry and cram, Sir,—
Bach friend, like a larder, presents a rump steak.
Now, there's a provision, and truly I hope, Sir,
It merits your thanks, and accords with your taste ;
If not, why all Ireland is free to elope, Sir,
And that plaguey sod grow a purified wane.
Merramess world then send Pandours and slave breeders,
Inured to police. and the blest feudal sway ;
The Pore would secndt me fresh Jesuit leaders,
To blind the new vassals,--and lead them astray.
I, Pm, ASERDZIN, then. in triple coalition,
Would rule like firm despots, as masters should do.
Made Greed Zhou of Ireland—Oh! darling ambition !
Till then, Flower of Connaught, I bid you adieu.

•• • •

P. S.
Oh murder!—l'm hit—clearly ruined, bambootrd—
The Russians have teen Adrianople I hear !
Betwiet them and yen and the rest. I'm so petard—
I'm all topsy-turvy,—and sweating with fear.
Fir GOD'S sake, then, spare me awhile. and be quiet.
On my knees I implore you—don't crush a poor man,—
If ConstAltineple fans—out-cry and riot
Will force me to cut—and be off where I can.

Then don't add your voice to the din, I beseech you,-
Bbould 01411 take the Posca,—lll to Muir and turn snook ;
But if it stands out—oh, you rogue, then I'll teach you,
How you joining clamour thus add to my funk.
Now happen what will—still I did not deceive ye,—
I told you my brains were unfitted to rule;
It was not my fault that folks would not believe me.—
At the worst they can only arraign me as tool.

AFFAIRS OF THE EAST.

CONTURI EL

Can Turkey, crippled and expiring, destitute of all means of
regeneration, crawling In beggary and barbarism, securely serve us
as an advance guard ? It were leaning for safety on a rotten
planks her infirmities are beyond all remedy ; and money and
arms supplied to the decrepld savage would be idle waste, pro.
docile* only of fruitless butchery—a sturdy lance in the hand of a
lame dotard. There are but two alternatives to preserve the
liberties of the West—namely, the partition of Turkey amongst
Powen capable of defending the possession ; or the other more
secure or effectual one, of forming it into one entire independent
kingdom, under the protection of Western Europe, until she should
acquire sufficient power to withstand Russian aggression by her
single force alone. Still, in either case, the Muscovite's disap.
pointed ambition would precipitate him elsewhere, for the advan.
taps of a site more approximate to the beast of Europe's chi•
lizatioa; and so would he renew his socket projects on the
North, where a renovated and combined power should be erected
to repel him. Poland should instantly be restored to her inde-
pendence, and recompensed by our zealous support, for the foul
policy of having sacrificed her liberty to the overgrown tyranny of
Russia. Thus, awed hack to her proper boundary, the latter
nation would still remain long innosious to her neighbour..
Either of these projects—sympathy for brother Turks, and a
conscientious horror of all arbitrary encroachments on the rights
of others, would naturally provoke the most inveterate objections
from certain people amongst us, who never advocate the sacrifice
of justice from mere expediency alone ;—unless you will except
some occasional encroachments in the East—a colony snapped up
here and there—the inept cession of Poland—the cruel abandon.

ment of Parga—and the vindictive dismemberment of Denmark.
But, in truth, what legitimate claims to our sympathy can the
Ottoman set up ? Has he not permitted us hitherto to approach
him only upon sVeramee ? Has not our tunic with him cost us
the continual aline of submitting to a thousand humiliations?—
Considered by these Intelsat and intolerant barbarians uan in-
ferior and polluted ram, has " this ancient Ally"—this hely Ally—
not uniformly refused to trade with us on terms of equality, and
pertinaciously disdained to conform to the courteous necessary
usage established amongst all civilized friendly people, of ex-
changing Ambassadors. —condemning the Representatives of
Christian Sovereigns, whenever they ventured to oppose his arro-
gant and capricious will, to the depths of his horrid dungeons ?
Has he not, in jealous ignorance and blasting egotism, for centuries
shut up the fairest portion of Europe front contributing its quota
of resource to its great family of civilisation? When, in the pleni-
tude of his streegth, did he not scorn and defy us?—and now, that
his unnatural destructive power falls headlong through his own
'intractable perverse obstinacy and brutality, are we to foster the
" scotched serpent," and re-erect with unhallowed hands this
monstrous Power—fitting like death and desolation on the fair
neck of Europe. hostile to our institutions, and abhorring us as
unclean ?
With reference, however, to the partition, tome readers might
interrogate us on the means of effecting it ;—to which we would
epeceledistly reply, let Russia retain Bulgaria and the countries
behind—ef which we comset dispossess her ; adjudge Servia, Bosnia,
and Dalmatia to Austria. Bestow Itomelia and Albania on France ;
and assume for ourselves the possession of every island of the Ar-

chipelago and Levant.
The difficulties and IDCOavenieueles of such arrangements are
fay admitted. The discussions to which they would tend are
clearly foremen ; but, at least, we should be rescued from the great
paramount danger, and re-establish a balance that would, for s tine,

guarantee the independence of the West. But the other alterna-
tive is one still more feasible and satisfactory. Gather all which
hitherto composed the Turkey in Europe under one Christian Scep-
tre; confide the same to t►e firm hand of some enlightened mu.
parch, who, for good assistance and protection accorded fur a time,
►y France and England, will guarantee conimercial anti other
privileges, till we were satisfactorily indemnified fur all sacrifices.
While Russia would thus be suddenly and effectually . frustrated
in her stupendous projects in the South—restore the war-

like nation of Sweden to its ancient formidable attitude. by
strengthening her with the addition to her power of ruined
Denmark—a union which would give lustre to Scandinavia, and ef-
fectually secure their combined force and prosperity. Give, as in-
demnity, to the victim King of Denmark—now sitting a mom-
meat of pity, on a wretched throne. scarcely left standing on the
fragments of a kingdom—the brilliant crown of Constantinople and
regenerated Greece. This monarch and his descendants, naturally
attached by the tenderest sympathies to the soil of their ancestors,
would jealously watch any attempt of the Muscovite to swallow it
in his might, while the united kingdoms of Sweden, Norway. Den-
mark, and their dependencies, immediately relying on the support
of Greece, equipoised in the balance, would as readily co-operate
with that new power, to sustain it as her best effective support.

BATTLE OF NA VARIN.

COURT MARTIAL, um, CAPTAIN DICKENSON. R N.
POILTSMOU fNI MONDAY ELI:IIO4TH 11AT •
_

On the meeting of the Court this morning,
The Juoce.AnvOCATl informed it that he had received a
letter from the Secretary of the Admiralty, stating that the
Admiralty Board had seen, with some surprise, that Sir Edward
Cndrington frequently alluded to a correspondence of his with
the Admiralty, as if the Admiralty withheld some of his let-
ters which would throw light on the proceedings before the
Court. To avoid the possibility of such allusions, the Admi-
ralty had further sent all the correspondence which had passed
between the Admiralty and Sir Edward. The Board has also
noticed with some suiprise that Sir Edward Coirington had stated
that two secret papers had been required from him by the Secretary
to the Admiralty, for which he had received no receipt. The Se-
cretary of the Admiralty knew of uo such papers, nor had he ever
received any paper from Sir Edward, ricer au office copy of a
French Proclamation, which belonged to the Admiralty, and not
to Sir Edward. for which be had not given him a proper receipt.
The papers were received, and the Court Adjourned till to-mot-
row at ten o'clock.

POSTYMOUTIII. T' T. &ITT* 8.

(1111031 OUS
@aLRRfeOFbaMT~. -
This morning the Court met at test o'clock, as a matter of course.
Yesterday they also met, but nothing material occurred. This
morning, however, on entering the Chun, we found the Judge Ad-
vocate presenting a large bundle of letters, said to be those which
Sir Edward ,Codrington complained of not bring received by the
Court, as containing some very important matter. Oo the Judge
Advocate presenting them,
Sir Robert Stopferd inquired if they were the letters offered by
Sir Edward Codringtoit, and which the Court refused to read, as
not being evidence ? • .

The Judge Advocate replied that they were, and that they were
all there except two. which Sir Edward Codrington complained of
not getting a receipt for ; the rest of the correspondence was upon
the subject shewiug the position of Sir Edward as a witness, and
not as a prosecutor.
Sir it..bert Stopforsl said that he thought the Court were bound
to have the entire read—they had read a part, and therefore, as the
Court wet e the &at to broach ►he subject, they were bound to read
the whole, but by no means should they be read in evidence.
Sir H. Blackwood observed, that he conceived that they should
be clearly open to all patties, and should Captain Dickenson wish
to resort to them, he was of °pink° that the Court should give his
application their consideration.
The Judge Advocate said that Capt. Dickenson was at liberty
to resort to them whenever he pleased.
Sir Robert &opford said that if Capt. Dickenson could make
any rational objection to them being read, that it would be enter.
tained ; but he could not conceive how be could, as they were not
to be received as evidence; they were bound to Sir Edward Cod-
rington to have them read, who asked liberty to go to London for
three days on some family business, but that be would be in town
to-morrow evening, and therefore he thought it but fair not to
read them in his absence.

The Judge Advocate said that the corespondessce was not com-
plete ; as Sir Edward Codringtoo had some of the original letters,
therefore copies had not been sent down to bins Irons the Admi.
nity ; and under the circumstances he thought it better to part
from the reading of them until the arrival of the Vice Admiral.
Sir Robert Stopford concurred with the Judge Advocate, that
as part of the correspondence was in the possession of Sir Edward,
they should not be read until his arrival, and suggested to the Court
the propriety of having them first read on Thursday, before the
defence was gone into,
Sir H. Blackwood thought they should be read tomorrow, in
order to do justice as soon as possible to Captain Dickenson, who,
from the mass of evidence he had to go through, would be better
enabled to prepare his defence; therefore the snorter he bad access
to them the better.

Captain Dickenson—lt is my with to have immediate access to
them.

Sr R. &opford—l do not think they will at all affect Captain
Dickenson's defence.

Sir H. Blackwood humbly conceived that it might be necessary
for Captain Dickenson to be in possession of their contents. as he
might be obliged to allude to various parts in them.
The Judge Advocate replied, that if they were to be read now,
they would be published over the whole world, without the expla-
nations which may be given to them, and therefore they would
have nothing te act upon.
Sir Robert Stopford then said, that the understanding with the
Court was, it was agreed that they should be read on Thursday,
when Sir Edward would be present.
Mr. Minato, solicitor to Captain Dickenson, hoped that they
would prolong tbe time allowed to Captain Dickenson for making
his defence, as there might arise something out of the correspond-
ence which would make it necessary for them to allude to it in his
defence.

The Judge Advocate said the proper time for making the appli-
catiou was at the time they were going to make the defence. As
to the contents of the letters, they were all about the orders.
Sir H. Blackwood was anxious to know it all the letters alluded
to were in the hands of the Judge-Advocate ?
Judge-Advocate—All that came to my hands are here.
Sir H. Blackwood—Sir E. Coilrinston complained of the ab-
sence of a particular letter.—We understood the Judge-Advocate
to say that be had got the original, and the whole, except the
translation from the French into English of a document which the
Admiralty bad nut granted receipts for, and only these were not
sent down, and which were not at all necessary to elucidate the pre.
sent investigation, and were merely French dispatches translated
into English.
Sir H. Blackwood conceived that the papers alluded to were only
relative to the French orders, and not at all referable to the de-
fence.

The Judge-Advocate said that he had received a letter from the
Admiralty, in which their Lordships stated that, from all that bad
been said during the investigation, it had been insinuated there bad
been some diwlosure withheld, and which was contained in a
&patch sent out to Sir E. Cadringtun. It was a French diwateb,
and translations of it were transmitted in English, and a duplicate
of which was applied for to Sir Edward, as no copies of them had
been kept in the Foreign Office; and the Admiralty are at a loss
to conceive what Sir Edward Cudtiugton can allude to, as no
others are in existence.

Admiral Otway said it could not be denied but the Admiralty
were not backward in forwarding the ends of justice, though a
contrary opinion had perhaps been fanned elsewhere.
The Court said that nu such au ophsion bad been entertained
by them.
Sir Robert Stopford said t►ey could not be responsibk for what
appeared In the public reports in the newspapers : they entertained
nu sash opinion.
Sir Henry Blackwood said that if every paper was read on the
day of the defence, it would occupy so much time that it would
greatly retard the business, and it would far emceed the time they
anticipated.
)Jr. Machin then said, that after reading the papers alluded to,
he would be able to know if a further time was necessary for the
defence.

Sir Robert Stupford.—Then, the letters will be read on Thurs.
day, but not received in evidence.—The Court then Adjourned.
The Marquis of HERTFORD is expected to leave hie
villa in the Regent's Park, in about a fortnight, for Rome, where
his Lordship intends passing the winter.
By Quebec advice., we learn that B. J. ROBINSON,
Esq. Attorney-General of Upper Canada, is appointed Chief Jus-
tice of that Province, in the place of Sir W. Caisroau., who re-
tina. Mr. J. MACAUILT succeeded Mr. WILLIS MI the Bench ;
and the Solieitor-General, Mr. H.. 1. Rome, succeeded to the
Attorney-Generalship. Mr. C. HAInIIILaII bad been appointed
Solicitor-General.
