her prot.erty to Mr. Arc ibrrld M•Nair's a ife awl
his three thildren, to be tqt.ally dividcal be• r/'een

By the latter will, the deceased left the w hot,. of her
effects to Mrs. Ann Roberts, and mad.. her 50%4

the gnestion was, which of these two wills were en:
titled to the probate of the Court. It appeared that
the deceased was of the age of Seventy-four at thry
time of her death; that for many years she aas in
the capacity of a monthly nurse, and that, during
tattity years she attended the family of the M`Nairs
in that capacity, :it'd had a strong affection for them,
and from whom she had received many kinditersel
and much attention.
On the part of Mr. M'Nair it was submitted by
Counsel, that the will of the 7th Oetobet, 1813,.
was unduly obtained from the deceased, When sill

on the same night.

The COCRT (sir WIIIIBM Scott), after recapitulat:
ing the evidence, and making sever,' pe.tinent re•
marks thereon, was clearly of opinion that the will
of the 7th October, 1813, was formed in fraud, aed
fabricated for the purpose of benefiting the family
interacted therein ; and therefore the Court pro..
nounced against its validity, and condemned the
party propounding it in Costs.

WAR OR PEACE!

LETTER 11.

TO THE EOITOIt OF THE ISTAITSM

SI R,—l wish, as concisely as possible, to remind
my CouNTltVbtsN in what state they are. Great ex-
ertions were made for the Repeal of the Property
Tar. A wan hangs over us, (see of the least of
whose evils will be the renewal of that tax, and yet-
this prospect seems to be regarded with indifference.
At the same time it is manifest, that; unless by the
instrumentality of BItIT SIN, there CA N be no war at
present ; and that, if we express no dislike to it, no
concern as to its consequences, there will be war ;
and a war, which, once commenced, will hurry us
away with it, and leave us no command over its con-
tinuance; while its effects, any way, must' be ex-
pected to be of a magnitude,. of a nature, and of au
uncertainty sufficient to startle any degree of rash-
ness at the thought of beginning it. Could there be 11
any assurance that these mighty movememts would
he limited to simply precautionary and defensive
measeree, they would be what the circumstances jus-
tify and require.
Rut as it seems that they lead to offensive war, and as I
there appear no symptoms of that temper and mode-
ration in the Allies which would be content with any
thing short of this, it would well have become TUE
PEOPLE Of THIS ISLAND to show, that when 20
such years of war, as we have sustained, led to no
better, juster, or wiser arrangements than those of
the Congress of Vienna, in which were all the ele-
ments of a new political chaos, ENGLAND would net
silently, and without expressing her sentiments in the
manner recognized by the Constitution, drop, as in
slumber, into the abyss of another war, which must
either, virtually and politically, annihilate the most
civilized nation in the world, and the most highly
advanced .in literature, arts,, and sciences, except
our own, and by so doing, convulse and disorganize
the general equilibrium of Europe at its very centre;
or if that be impossible, and FRANCE should over-
come the attack under which she sunk for a moment
under very different circumstances, what other result
does the war which appears to be on the point of
breaking forth present, which can justify the ques-
tion—ought we to commence it?
I have offered this warning in the strongest and
simplest terms I could. If ever there was a moment
which called forth to the public ear, be a:oake now
or abide the consequences,
.uou and your posterity,
which no foresight canfathom,and n o fortitude contem-
plate unasved,it is the-present, in which the wreck of
national property and credit is but an inferior part
of the peril. That FRANCE is determined not to be
the aggressor appears to be certain. And infinite
is the responsibility of those who shall, yet those
who could prevent an esil by speaking, and stand
by in silence do, in effect, command it.
I am yours, sincerely,
CAPEL LOFFT.

tilted Stat.-5 ~r Amp' lea.

nut ill SHOPE was delighted to heir the No-
ble [gird (Lirei p.. 01) chime in with the dictum of his
associate Peer (Bathurst) on a former night ; but
what pretty work , would they all come to, when
that famous principle of search was to he equally
distributed among all powers. The Noble Lord,
however, said, that this was -only a right arising
among belligerents. This was better and better still.
Now suppose Denmark had made war unjestly on
Sweden, or vice versa, was either of them to be at
once invested by this unjust act, with a right to
search all neutral ships, and British as well as the
rest. Or suppose Commodore Rodgers was sent
with a fleet to attack the Algerines, and he being
thus in a state of war should meet one of our fleets
of one or two bundled ships, and take it into his
head that there were Americans on board, how would
we like that kind of right ? Or suppose he found in
our ship six Americans, and took them out, and thus
left the ship undermanned, and the ship, and cargo,
and crew, all English, at once went to the bottom
in the first gale, what was the English merchant to
say to that? It would be better, in fart, to give up
the whole right on both sides and all sides by nego-
ciation.--p laugh.]
&'he marquis of LANSDOWN agreed in that part
of the Address which thanked the Prince Regent for
his pacific intentioes; but he objected to the manage.

because we might have . had the same peace before,
because we had insisted on an Indian barrier, and
then left that harrier to the will of Congress, and
.because, without additional objects in the war. we
bad plunged Into additional expenditures of blood
and treasure. _ _

The question was then put, and the House ad-

the snhj,•ct a that meeting he begged to say, that it

a siniil.r nature in the memory of man. At this
meeting no party spirit was shown : all parties, all
professions bad but one object, namely, to oppose
by temperance, and yet with firmness, a measure
which, in their opinion, would be injurious to the
interests of the country at large. The Petition
which we agreed to on this occasion, and which he
now had the honour of presenting, in the short
spare of three days was signed by 4000 persons—

To THE EDITOR IF Tilt STATESAIdIV.

Stn,—The present mode of carrying on promo
Lion from one rank to another, and which is pear:
liar to the naval service, is '.ery highly objectionable;
I mean the positive check to promotion, which exists
between one step and another, from the Midship-
man to the Post Captain, hounds which cnntant be
overleaped without powerful interest, or the casual
occurrence of fortuitous circumstance., which may
heave the hiertic's., though meritotiou., Naw.! Offi;
cer over the bar of difficulty.
This is quite an anomaly in military service. iti
the cavalry and infantry a man moo, in process of
time, obtain an advance of rank, with no other re-
! commendation than that of length of standing in his

corps.
; Ili the corps of Engineers, in the Artillery, and
in the Marines, promotion goes on equita ty ant
. regularly; though not rapidly. Win may not thsi
Navy be placed no as similar a footing ai circum.
stances will admit ? However, t.should by no meows
recommend the entire adoption of the undeviatinz
system of the Engineers, Artillery, and Mail:tett,
for extra promotion should in (-very politicAl view be
always open in every department of both military
and naval service, to reward and excite to particulate
meritorious actions.

GERMAN PAPERS.

Maltz, Oct. 16.—The opening of the Session of
the States•Ceneral took place this morning. His
Al 'jest,' the Kiug made the following speech:—
" In the course of the Session which I this day
open according to the Constitution, important inte-
rests will be submitted to your deliberations.
" Since spring extraordinary effects have been pre.
scribed by events which it was impossible to foresee.
Every Belgian loves to turn his eyes upon this pe.
tint!, which is that of the establiAment of the na.
Clonal independence, 81111 a sentiment so general will
lighten the saciifices which it shall judge indispen.
sildy necessary to require. Treasures have been ne-
cessary to arm, in n short space of time, whole lines
of fortresses, to double the national army, and to
maintain the still more numerous armies of your
Allies. You will he informed of all that has been
done on those different heads, as well as of the con-
siderable burdens they have caused to our finances.
In these circumstances justice requires more than
ever, that the State should acquit itself towards its
creditors; a great number of them belong to the
"ct:untries which hive directly felt the evils attend-
ant upon war. However, in combining the ma-
sur,:s relative to this subject, I have most care-
fully the means of my faithful subjects.
I have applied mys If to alleviate the burden, and
to tender it equal, by r'istributing; it over several
and among cl uses of society, so that I Hatter
ni)self that (lase measures will he found wholly
.worthy of the approhation of the States-Generel.—
Th.. estimates of the espenecs of the following year,
oid of the inextis of meeting them, will be an equally
serious sulj-ct of deiiheration for your High Mighti-
iiesse.s. But I persuade myself that the result will
be salutary in et cry respect, and that a prudent in-
troduction of tases of the same kind, will put an
end to the constraints which the mutual communica-
tions of some parts of the kingdom, render esprit-
hire for a mom Nit. Among the laws already in force
for some of our provinces, and which, under certain
modifications, it will he proper to make applicable
to all, that on the National Militia deserves to be
; our Common aim will doubtless be to
make the execution of it uniform for all the Belgians,
according to the principles of the Union, and even
though this institution may remain for years stiscep-
tihle of progressive improveniont, no trial can ap-
pear to us too difficult, no effort ton great, when
the point in question is to establish the firmest buls
work of the general security.
" However, your Mightn't...4es •^.ay indulge the
hope that the next year, less stormy than this has
will not requite unforeseen or exorbitant sa-
crifices. It is probable that I shall speedily have to
communicate to you a general Treaty of the Sow..
reigns at present in arms, which will gi►e new
guarantees for the ti a sivillity of Europe.--,Thus we
shall at length l.ehold the time alien the Legislator,

Pelled.us to quit momentarily nor kingdom, we in-
fnrmed you of the dangers which threatened you,

quarters of Field-Marshal Prince Blucher, at Liege,
and M. Reeder, General in the Prussian service, is
also gone hack to the same head-quarters.

Rovioo, Arlin. 17, ELEVEN IN THE MORNING.—
A printed accredited letter, with phi; date, announces
the following circumstances:—"" According to au-
thentic accounts, the English, in conjunction with
the Siciiimas' ban landed on the coast of Naples,
and arl-aoneed. into the-kingdom, which is wholly
destitute of troops. They hare taken possession of
the city of Naples itself, and are advancing by forced
'lurches to uteet et: Neapolitans, who are retreating
in the greatest baste. The Queen of Naples has fled
to Ancona. It is hoped that the enemy's army must
be lost without possibility of escape, as our troops
are surrounding it on all (idea.

She

There is a clause, directing restitution of the various
presents made in expectation of the birth of a male

devotees; and reference is made to a book containing
_a catalogue of their names and offerings, which it has
been necessary to record with the testamentary pa-

seems to have been anticipated with scrupulous at.
tention. There are cradles, robes, mantles (some of

FINANCIAL MIt'ASURES.
London, England, 1815-05-06

TO Mg. SERJEANT BEST.

Srtt,—As you have introduced a Bill into the
House of Commons by way of amending the G'essio
Bonurum Act, and as that Act, both in a moral and
political view, vitally affects the best interests of
society, permit me to make the following observe.
Cons upon the project :
You teem unt aware that, in nine cases out of ten,
such debtors as take the benefit of Lord itedesdale's
8111, are such whose debts had been contracted ante-
cedent to the passing of the Act; or course, you
dral unfairly by the 13111, isk drawing from it conse.
quences which flow froM causes anterior to its exist-
ence. Next you use the expression, 46 the FULLY of
the creditor ;" believe me, Sir; you are here under a
mistake. The creditor rarely gives credit from
folly—he seldom errs from weakness—he acts from
a principle,. and that principle is covetousness. I
should rather call it a passion ; and there exists no
passion in the human heart more apt to disaspoint
the purposes of its possessor than covetousness. By
aiming at superlation he often loses all, and what
you are pleased to designate by the " sufferings of
fulls ," are nothing but the evil consequences result-
.
ing from a disgusting vice.
Your have not given time for the Bill to prove its
utility ; had you done so, fewer of those cases would
oiler of defrauded creditors and knavish debtors.
Your amendment tends to the encouragement of a
destructive species of credit. It holds out a lore to
the gratification of avarice on the one hand—of fraud
and knavery on the other; and this it does by bring.
ing hack the law to the ancient principle on which it
stood, previous to the Act of Cessio Bonorum.—
Crtsdit, by the present Act, has been curtailed ; and
hence vanity, one of the most destructive passions in
society, has been suppressed. Vanity gives birth to
licentiousness and immorality; and thus you found
your girth crowded with inhabitants before the pass-
ing of this Bill ; and was no other advantaged gain-
ed by the Bill, than the well-established fact alone
of the gaols being emptied, this, in my mind, would
forth. a sufficient confutation of the excellencies of
your proposed amendment.
In retail dealings, there exists but little necessity
for credit, and still less for that fictitious credit,
under the name of accommodation bills. This kind
of credit, and these kind of bills, your amendment,
by removing restraint, will tend to encourage. In*
wore, it will inspire the covetous with a fresh avidity
of gain, and hold out a manifest temptation to the
knavish to incur their own destruction. •

A creditor ever looks to his own advantage, and
weighing the profit against the risk, takes special
care the preponderance shall be in his favour. Hence
your scruples for his safety, and your sympathy for
kis folly, are misapplied ; and I am sorry to con-
clude, that your proposed amendment to Lord
Redesdale.'s Bill will have little other effect than
sending many men to a jail, and not a few to the
gallows.

TO THE WING OP NAPLES.

" I say nothing to you of my displeasure at your
conduct which has been diametrically opposite to
your duty. That however belongs to the weakness
of your nature. You are a good soldier on the field
of battle, but, excepting there, you have no vigour
and no character.—Take advantage of an act of
treachery, which I only attribute to fear, kr order to
serve me by good intelligence.—l rely upon you,
upon your coetrition,uponyourprorniscs. If it were
otherwise, recollect that-yea would have to repent*.
I suppose that you are not one of those who imagine
that the Lion is dead, and that he may be upon
(est qu'on pent lid pisser dersus).—lf such are your
calculations they are false.—l defeated the Austrians
yesterday, and I am in pursuit of the remnants of
their columns. Another such victory, and you will
see that my affairs are not so desperate as you have
been led to believe.
" You have done me all the harm that yen could
since your departure from Wills., but we shall say no
more about it. The title of King has turned your
brain. If you wish to preserve it; behave well, and
keep your word."
