LOYAL AI/DRESS.

An Address to the King ha►ing been prepared, which
does nut sufficiently express the befitimunts of wantsl
the Inhabitants of Wished' and the neighbourhood, ai
Amendment has been made, which is subjoined with a
copy of the original Address.

(OPT OF TIIC ADDIEVI.
We your 3lajesty's most dutiful and loyal %ejects,
the Burgesses of the Corporate town of Wished), LH
the Gentlemen and Yeomanry of the said town and
neighbourhood, feel it our imperious duty at a crimes
when infidelity, sedition, and disloyalty, are so We-
fatigably and fearlesly disseminated around us, to ap-
proach time throne with time assurance of our devoted ai-
legignee and fidelity to your Majesty's person and,'
vernment, and the unalterable attachment to our ex-
cellent and unrivalled Constitution.

" We, Sire, are among those of onr fellow country's*
who love and esteem the Monarchy of our ancestors us
the best safeguard of our national rights and privileges
The turbulence of the factious, and the clamour of the
seditious, serve only to strengthen and enlarge one pub-
lic affections, teach us the more earnestly to look to the
throne for protection, and convince vs that on yonr
Majesty's security, and the due dignity of the crown,—
our religion, one laws, and onr liberties are the =Si
effectually and most permanently secured.
" Hut, Sire, while we lament and deplore the existence
of those evils, to which we have already referred, we
feel it our duty as Englishmen, to express our firm coo•
victim!, that they are the consequences resulting free
the cis-rule of your present Ministers. The whole sys-
tem which they have pursued, evidently proves that they
have betrayed their King—insulted their gneen—de
spised the People—violated :he Constitution—exhausted
the Treasury—impoverished the Nation—disgraced tk
Chitrch--deutorelized the Land—scandalized Chrieti-
anity, and cast a stain tipoti their Country which diet
cannot easily efface.
" We, therefore, hope your Majesty will dismiss those
men from your presence and counsels for ever, aid
choose such only as will Wedge themselves to
a thorough Reform i• the Commons House or Pourlllas,
went."

TO THE EDITOR OF VIE STATES.II,4S.

Stu.—The following ake trh is from nature, and is a
compamioa to the story you did we the kindness to ia•
scrt in your paper of Friday ; fur its truth I can pledge
myself, for I was present.
In order to make myself perfectly inteUigible to
those whe did nut see the article I allude to, I as
obliged to repeat the preamble of that paper.
" Ihe late counsellor E. who was chairman of the

Quarter-sessions of the County of Dablin, was se
remarkable for his lenity to women, that a feuds
prisoner was seldom convicted in his court, in come
quern e of which he had many fair customers, Not
of whom were such constant visitors as to be sees in
his calendar at every adjournment."
Foremost in her dutiful attachment to this bra
Judge was a great!, rowels of the name of Sillg%
L., who was as regularly in the dock as his
was on the bench, sometimes for petty thefts, bit
mostly for gentle asseolts. Mrs.l. was a most fleet'
lent performer, and could " enact" introrenee Carer
sibility sea admirably that " My Lord E." was mpg'
edly touched with her pathos.
At one of those adjournments Mrs. L. was, a
annul, ;.t the bar. Some rindicticc prosecutor W.
in addition to her revel " style and dignity." WO
the insulting alias, " othernise Red Peg."
When the I. lerk of the Crown in arraigniag het r:
nottuced the words " Red PeAr," she made a most tem
r fie scream, and with the voice and, attitude of ifs*
assured the Court she was " no Elise," but Mrs. Afr'
gore/ L
With mach difficulty she was pacified: the triairk
ileslled, aid Mistress Innocence was, for the ifeoltdi
dee I verily believe, &quitted by the mercy of ,_
Court,
When she was about to be discharged, with a ADO
piteous face, she humbly begtred to say a ward le
" his Lordship," when, to his great amusement, sod"
the no small amusement of s.he Court. she with a sot
respectful curtsey, made the following very sensible
motion :

LONDON:
ttmusDAT LY1V411.40, DECE3IIIIII 13.

There can no lonr,er be any doubt ofithedittieioa of
opini Ott in the Cabinet. The Premier, in his retire-
mew at WAhner Castle, has been followed by his
Lord II tRROA MT and 31h% CANNINU. From
that place it is expected the party will make their /Nal
de, lora flux.

When the artifice of getting up the ultra-to}-el
Adritesses to the KING was conceived, it was not Jiff.
rust to anticipate the character of its fruits. The
Addreves to the QUEEN had been distinguished by an
indrpendeut, liberal, and truly constitutional spirit.
'1 bad 'prong from a generous sympathy towards
an exalted and persecuted individual of the Royal
nee; they bad been accompanied with the most striking
deno.n,tratlons of attachment to the laws of the
country, as well as to the person of the illustrious
soferer ; and these demonstrations had been made to
au extent, and with an unanimity, animation, and
order, without a parallel in the display of popular
feel:ng. It was impossible not to be struck with the
unusual evidences, both of mind and heart, which were
manifested by the numerous bands that took an
interest in the late proceedings. Independent of the
appearance of those in easy circumstances and of
cultivated habits, there were even in the promiscuous
crowds a decorum and a manliness of character that
inspired way lover of his country with pride and hope,
and every enemy to political improvement with chagrin
and fear. The very virtues of the people became occa•
Mons for alarm ; and their nobler spirit was, at all events,
to he counteracted and suppressed. On the Ministers
gis lug the word, their servile agents in the corporate
towns, and those that profit from their taxes through
t'oe tountry, were set to procure Addresses to the
Throne, in which the disposition of the people was

oust basely calnntniated. The hachnied, thread-bare
epithets of infidelity and sedition are again applied,
vial more barefaced falsehood and audacity than ever,

to those emotions of the nation which have been die-
Cuguishesl above all other periods, for the rectitude of
their motives and the propriety and excellence of their
ecpressions and aims. To expose the injustice, the
us' %chief, and the impolicy of Ministers, and to implore
the Km: to remove them from Isis councils, are ads
that are branded with the charges of disloyalty
and almost rebellion ; but let it be remembered
by whom it is that these charges are made. It le
by the Ministers themselves, whose conduct is it
pugned by the nation ; it is by their master whom
answers to Addresses they prepare ; it is by
their adherents and agents who retail the cant of
office. and arrogantly calumniate the people, on ths
fruits of whose industry they live. Unt let the pee-
ple continue firm, united and peaceable, and the acerb
of their enemies will be of no avail. Every day af-
fords ns proof, that in every open meeting, the spirit
of corruption is subdued by the voice of independence,
To the example of Frome and Gosport, and of other
place., we may add the instance in another of our
columns, which has come within our knowledge to-
day.

FLostrnis.—A piratic. is now persuetria these ter-
titories, which ruay produce injurious consequences.

Slaves who are convicted of crimes in several of the

British colonies, and ordered to be transported, are
carried by speculators, and sold in the Floridan. In
tete coarse of time the Florida. will become a second
Botany Bay, if the practice is not discontinued.—

A rumour has prevailed for some days at 3fadtid
that the Duke de l'lnfantado is to be banished to the
Island of friea.
At Gibraltar, the derision of the Spanish Govern-
ment bad givtn great satisfaction, the merchants and
intim* expecting** reap much advantage from it.

The wounds received by the Marquis Decree In the
ItriSCsilten the horrible attempt was made upon his
life, have proved fatal. The Duke stink nnder a n0m,.1
