We copy the following article from Farleys Bris-
tol .Journal, in which it is displayed in a most stril•
ing and prominent manner :
" We have much pleasure in giving currency to the following
gratifying intelligence, which we have reason to believe is per-
fectly authentic :
" The King has been pleased to write a letter to his royal sis-
ter, the Duche's of Gloucester, in which he talus an opporti .
nity of expressing his gratification at the claims of the Roman
Catholics having been rejected by the good, correct, and consti.
tutional feeling of the House of Lords, and most especially at the
energetic and mahly declaration of his royal brother, the Duke
of York, presumptive heir to the crown of this united kintdorn."
We have reason to believe that there is not one
word of truth in the statement. A likely thing,
truly, that his MAJESTY should be writing politics to
his sister ; and still more so, that he should be so in-
delicate as to express an opinion which would have
been censure in disguise on her rm., illustrious bus.
band, whose friendship to Catholic Emancipation is
as avowed as is the Heir Presum ptive's hoaility !

The late Report of the Committee mi Foreign
Trade has already produced activity in, some of the
Swedish ports. From Gottenburgh we learn, by the
last Mail, the arrival of twenty-five English vessels
there, for loading timber—a speculation attributed
to the diminution which has been recommended of
the Duties en that article.
