THE " STATESMAN.

:`:• TO MR. DANIEL LOVELL,

IN MIS MAJESTI'S GAOL OF !CMG ATE.

SIA,--1 consider you as the friend of the op 7

berty. Notwithstanding the apostate NAPOLEON.
has succeeded in suppressing all freedom of
.speech,
ore writing, upon the Continent, I trust the people
of thil. country_ will never permiLsuch an example
to be adopted in Old England; indeed we have no
wish to he guided by the maxims of the Great Na.
than, except in one instance, viz. that of touching
the gold (or our promissory hank-notes, upon pre-
'sentation. Speaking of the ci-devant liairrus 80.
NAPA itTe reminds me of
.the late French Revolution;
many have been the causes assigned for the prodnc.
lion of that great evcut, but I believe it is generally "I
admitted, 46 that theinsolence of a swarm of Counts
and Marquisses, the extortion of Priests, the cx.
travagaucu and depravity of part of the Royal Fa.
wily, the oppression of the Game Laws,- combined
with the great pressure of the Pnblie,DAt, were
the real causes of that event. If this is allowed,
can we help exclaiming, Oh ! ;Nations of the.
Earth, will you never learn to be wise ?• Will yolt
never profit by experieoce? Is the page of history of
no use to you ? Oh ! infatii ited PITT, seeing these
things, why did you so enormously increase the
list of privileged people ? Why did you listen to the
greedy projects of avaricious loan.teongers ? and
why did you convert •Jtir bank.notes into 'mere
assignats ?—Ttie shade of PITT replies—Re.
cause I acted upon the system of Corruption.—;
Yes, oh ! shade of PITT, and thy system is ra.
pidly hurrying thy unfortunate country to the
gtilph of perdition! Sir, I consider your present
incarceration as a preparatory step towards the
curtailing the Liberty of the Press in this coun.
try. However, as the Parliament is now -assent.
Islet', I hope yourself, CODUCTT, &c. will meet
with a frient'ly advocate in that great Statesman
and real friend to this country, Mr. Witrratit cal).
I also hope this good Patriot will lend his assist.
ance towards removir, that absurd and obnoxious
clause in the Game Laws, which renders snipes
game.

Your real friend,

Yesterday the Prince of WALES' and Duke di
YORK left Windsor.
We were sorry to hear last night that the reports
frOm AVindsor, respecting the state of his MAJe:.
TY'S health, represented his fever to have increased,
after the BeHeti() was issued in the morning.
The town of IVindsor was in "a great state of
alarm on Tuesday morning, between. four 41141 five
o'cluok, owing to the departure and hrrival of ex-
presses. The Prince of WA Lus and Duke of CL'm.
RERLANO arrived about that time; their Royal
Highnesses immediately sent off several expresses ;
during the whole of the day expresses were going
and coming.
Since the relapse of the KING, a Bulletin everyi
evening, has been sent front Windsor to Mr. PEa..l
CEVAL. , It is written by the Physician who is in
close attendance upon his MaJesTy, and is in gen 6
ral an enlarged statemedt of his state during the
day.
Lord SIDMOUTII Is extremely indisposed at Rich-
mond Park, having caught a cold while attending
the Committee to examiue his MAJesvesPhysicians.
The Archbishop of CANTERBURY aid not go to
Windsor on Christmas-day to administer the Sacra.
ment to the ROYAL FAMILY. The QUEEN and
ROYAL FAMILY, however, rer-ived it from the
Hun. and Rev. Dr. LEGGe, the Dean of %Vitlsur,
itt Windsor Castle.
Sir IL lim.Fono's name was not annexed to the
Bulletin of yesterday, with that of the other Physi.
cians to his MAJESTY.
Dr. WILLIS, in his evidence, said, that accord.
ing to the hest of his recollection his MAJESTY'S
relapse in 1801, came on either on the evening of the
14th of Match, or the morning of the 15th. Now
we know that the Commi.sion appointing Lord

Council on that day. This.% e should imagine most
give rise to inoiry.• Amd this is but one circum-
vtavtee iwthe- lung series,of transections, which must
be a subject of Parliamentary ievestigation.

Mt uro tr's great match to-Stamford, 90 miles

of horses every eight mile, or nine at farthest.—
There is uo doubt about the •hurses performing the
