IARRADOES, DRUMMER 11,
FROM THE BAR BADGES MERCURY..
In nor Paper of the 27th ult. we gave the proceed•
legs at the opening of the. Court of Appeal at Guade-
loupe on the sth, and confess we felt at the time
much etrultation in the idea, that the inhabitants of
thist island, hot only receiving :the benefit of the re.
establishment of their Tribunal (and under the aus.
pices of British jurisprudence, having its decisions
IteenalPtki and impartially given), but were about tol,
enjoy liberty Of speech and freedom of discussion—
thereby partaking of one of the most boasted rights
of Ilritish subjects; and consequently be at once ena-
bled to draw the most favourable contrast of their
present ameliorated condition, with that oppression
. from which they have been just released.
• It appears, however, that we hive totally mistaken
the grounds on which the opinion was formed—for
the address of the Procureur-General to the Governor
on that-Occasion (from which we argued) has been
since denounced as an. 4, audacious libel," and even
brought down such heavy indignation upon its au-
thor, as to cause his dismissal from his public 'func-
tions. On this subject we have the following article
translated ;
FROM THE GUADA,LOUPE GAZETTE, Nov. r.
His 'Excellency having been informed that, the
speech which the Attorney-General delivered in his
presence, in the Court of Appeal, was cieculeted

copy of a Lotter from his Excellency to the President of the
Court of Appeal et Guadeloupe, and its Dependenoies:
Point-a-Petre, Nov. 24.
0 Sir—When I repaired to the Hon. Court of Ap-
peal for the purpose of having my commission en-•
rolled there, and of my acquainting the Members with
the intentioria, of the King, I entertained no doubt
that the speeches which should be. addressed to me
would be totally divested of political animadversions,
which are so entirely uncoauected with the functions'
of that tribunal,
" While I was attending to the Attorney-General,
my ears were struck by some of his expressions, which
appeared to me improper ; but the little knowledge
I possess of the french language did not enable me
to form an idea of the extent of this impropriety, suf.
Beiewly accurate to induce me to stop the Speaker in
his observations ; and as I must have supposed the
President had acquainted himself with every address
that should be made to me during the Session, the
silence of the Court, united with the satisfaction I felt
at being placed at the• head of a tribunal deservedly
honoured by the public, subsequently diverted my
Attention from the matter.
44 What then, Sir, was my amazement on finding in
public circulation here, the speech of the Attorney-
General, when I was enabled by the translation of it
which was furnished me, to judge for myself of the
expressions that he has dared to utter before "the re-
presentative of the King.
If the Attorney-General, instead of diverging
from the sphere of his functions, and giving-way to
the flights of his imagination, or to the suggestions of
perfidy, had imitated the wise circumspection of the
. President of the Court of Appeal, the day intended
to be spent in thanksgiving for the benevolence of his
Majesty, and in applauding the justice of the Court
of Appeal, would not have been clouded by an act
of severity which is'peitiftil to my fedlings, but which
the public interest requires. .
t'Those of whose zeal I have availed myself, and
whom Mr. de Dampietre has described in so scanda-
lous a manner in that audacious libel, which I con.
sider an insult to his Majesty's Government, are.ho.
toured with my confidence, and are for that reason,
alone entitled to the respect of those who, 'like theiu...,
selves, are invested with public authority. • ,
" If any person deviates.from the line of his duty'
the right of correcting the errpr belongs to me only;
and it is sufficiently well known how easy I am of
access, and how desirous I am of acquiring any know.'
ledge that can be conducive to the public advantail
it must have excite 3 universal astonisinnent,*that Mr.'.
de Dampierre should have expressed himself in the
manner he did at the Session of the Court of Appeal;l
and in my presence. Be good enough to 'cominuni..'
cate to him my orders that he cease to perform all'
public duty in th•e Court of Appeal. ~!
" This is the proper place to signify to you, Si,
any determination that any Advocate who shall at-
tempt to make the smallest critical remarks on the
conduct of the Government, or to mix political corn-
merits with the arguments of defence of his client,
shall be suspended from the exercise of his professio4
and I desire that you will apprize me cf it, that I may;
pronounce definitively upon him.
