THE BEACO'.

We copy the following from the Edinburgh papers
received to day :
" TO VII ZDITC1111: &e.
" Stft—Lest any impression should be created by a
paragragh which was yesterday pointed out to me in
one of the newspapers, stating that Mr. James Gibson,
W. S. has raised a summons of damages against me, on
account of certain passages in the Beacon, I request you
to wake known, by publishing this letter, that the asser-
tions concerning me, on which that summons is found-
ed. are altogether erroneous. It may he proper to a,1,1,
that Mr. Gibson was warned of this by me the day after
1 received his summons.
" 1 am, Sir, your obedient servant,
"6 Dot SiLAS CIICAPE.
" 38, Queen-street, Nov. 14, 1621."
The following is a copy of the letter addressed by
Mr. Cheape to Mr. Gibson, and alluded to in the
above :

" 3S, Queen-street, 27th Oct. IS2I.
" Six—l last night was served with a Summons of
Damages, at your instance, on account of certain pas-
sages therein quoted from the Beacon.
From the course You have taken in this matter, 1
am not called on to mike any extra-judicial statement
as to the assertions on which your snmmons (ia so far
as it concerns me), is founded; but I deem it proper to
waive this consideration, with the view both of securing.
the expenses of process in my favour, and of strenghen-
ing any action which I may be advised to institute against
you, should you persist in the proceedings which you
have commenced against me.
" I therefore now inform von, that I am not the ' Au-
thor' of any of the passages quoted in your Summons;
and that at the time irhcn they app,are'd i e the Beacon,
I was not a' Proprietor,' Editor,' • Conductor,' Re-
visor,' or Publisher,' of that work.
"I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
(Signed) " Doc(it.As CHEAPE.
" Addressed to James Gibson, Esq. W. S."

There is now living in Annan a stone-entter and
painter, in his 57th year, possessing a steady hand
and intelligent mind, good health and a large family,
although within the last 36 years he has drank, on a
moderate computation, no less than two thousand five
hundred gallons of whiskey.
A few days ago, at the baptism of a child near
Annan, who was a twin (the other having died), there
met on the occasion Live gossips who had All recently
been delivered of twins, and what is equally extra-
ordinary, two of the said gossips were themselves
twins.

Last Sunday week were published in the parish
church of Woolstanton, the banns of matrimony of
four paupers in the poor-house, viz. Richard Brown-
sword, aged 74, to Sarah Gater, aged 24, and John
Clews, a blind man, to Ellen Ilvath, rather iasetne, and
under the care of the Governor of the said poor-house.
—(Staffordshire Advertiser.)
We would advise the public to avoid the promised
issue of local notes, as they would the dangerous
iseak: of the Mersey. IVe should not have deemed
Ibis caution necessary, had not some 11. notes, pay-
able in London only, been sent to us from Yorkshire
to inquire as to their validity, in which county, it Bp-
', pears, they have obtained a partial circulation.—(Bil-
Sage's Liverpool Advertiser.)
Tug CARLlLES.—Notwithstanding the recent

tarry eenteseems Mary Ann Carlik, another female
member of the same family has already taken posses.
sion of the " Temple of Reason," and as the sale of
the same works is continued, must, of course, shortly
fall a victim to the law.

Mary Ann Carlile was, on Saturday night, sent off.
In custody, from the ng's Bench, to Dorchester
Gaol, to undergo her se once.

Yesterday. the Rev. • Mr. Cotton, the Ordinary of
Newgate, preached what is called a Condemned Ser-
mon, to seven out of the eight of the unhappy men who
are ordered for execution. Cubelia, who is of the Jew-
ish persuasion, did not attend the service, it being in•
consistent with his creed ; but he was attended in his
cell by a Jewish Priest. The chapel was crowded to
excess, and the audience appeared greatly affected.
We have heard that great interest is making for. Cad-
man, who, up to the time of uttering the note, (through
extreme distress) for which he is to suffer, had a most
excellent character, and is of very respectable connee-
dons. He is also a young man of considerable ability.
He produced, at Sadler's Wells Theatre, a translation
of the French piece, entitled " The Family of d'An-
glade," and a still more successful piece, called " The
Father' Cane." For some before the unhappy circum-
stances which led to his conviction, he was employed
in the house, and much respected by his acquaintance.
His wife, who was also convicted with him of the same
offeace, visited him yesterday, and the interview was
of the most affecting nature.
CADS or Carossas.—(lEtber particulars from a
correspondent of a morning piper.)—The case of Cad-
man is not that of the hardened, practised, criminal.:
He is yet a very young man ; and it appears from cog .
dilates we have seen, that his conduct has always beet
prilseworthy, from an early period up to very near the
'present time. He bas served seven years in the Royal
Iliarinekand received a severe wound in the engage-
ment at New Orleans. He was employed as Clerk to
the Adjutant, and gained the confidence and esteem of
his officers, as they have testified by certificates which
Wee been forwarded to the Secretary of State. Since
hlsquitting the army, up to February last, be was in
lett Am of a Solicitor in Clerkenwell, where be was
ifunsarkable for his industrst and punctual habits. He
ted this situation in consequenceof promises which
eire made to him of a better situation, but which
wigs not performed. Want of employment plunged
him lain distress, which was heightened by his wife
failing dangerously ill. lie was without the means
of procetriag her the necessaries of life, when tempo-
rary relieves offered him by passing forged notes,
which aceffe.ebop keeper in Drury-lane furnished bits
yid'. He bad committed this offence twice only when
be was detected. Committed to prison, bi
ately one voluatarily disclosed to the Bank all that be'
knew of the nefarious traffic : the Bank Officer, who
received his communication, told him., .that _although
