upon the ratNcE REGENT at Carlton-house, with
11w final Quarterly Report of the Queen's Council,
co,tformably to the Regency Act, will be
laid before Parliament to-morrow. It states, that
from a minute investigation of the several Physicians
attendant on his MAJEsTy's person, it did not ap-
p-sr that any favourable alteration had taken place
since the last Report, on which to found an
that the mental malady would soon be removed, al-

'COVENT-G.4RDtS ELEPILINT.
TO THU EDITOR OM /HE STATESMAN.
Sia,—The attention you have coat shown.to the
Public Cause, and particularly to their ?Metric
rights, induces me to submit for insertion in your
respectable Paper the following remarks. The keen
satire of the ready-witted writers of paragrahs have,
with indefatigable zeal, been levelled for tome time
at the Stage Manager of Covent-Garden Theatre ;
either wilfully or maliciously misstating that Gentle-
man's dramatic taste, they have choseti to single him
out as the author of the present disgusting exhibi-
tion. In justice to that Gentleman it should be told
(and I am persuaded I am in this respect correct), he
would as soon sanction the introduction of a com-
pany of Hottentots on the English Stage, as to give
his assent to the exhibition of these four-footed per-
formers. It is a fact too notorious to be denied, that
the Elephant was, till last Saturday, the properly of
Mr. PARKER, and was by him then sold to Mr. Po-
ut() of Exeter 'Change, for nearly a thousand
pounds ; it is equally true, this beast is engaged at
the enormous sum of 601. a-week, besides an addi-
tion of seven more to his three keepers ; thus swal-
lowing up more than would pay three of the beat
tietfortners their week's ettlarpt,-or,ifeightly applied,
would increase native talent, and produce to the pub-
Pm the novelty of half-a-dozen new pieces. Hoot
long this sort of exhibition is to be tolerated, I know
not—but of this I am sure, that while it exists we
may bid adieu to any thing like novelty in the line of
dramatic composition. I cannot conclude these ob--
serrations without remarking, that while one fasci-
nating female has it in her power to Han-hiss (or
harass, if you please) the whole concern, we may
expect nothing less than the frequent introduction of
horses, elephants, asses, and camels.

SHEERNESS, JAR. 5.

Came into dock the Regains, of 44 guns; the
Seine and Ratak frigates; and the Quebec pegged up
the River for Chatham. The Dail* and Crescent
are hourly expected at the Nore with the St. George,
98, which was reported to have been lost.

moment the wind is fair for the Mediterranean, from
Portsmouth.

Reai-Admiral Durham, who, since his refill.* fro*,
the Baltic, has commanded the squadron which block-
ades the enemy's Beet in the Terel, is now actively
employed in directing the re-equipment of all the
ships at Spithead.

On Fiitisy night, one of the detestable gang of mis-
creants that are so odious and disgraceful to the coon,
try, was detected with a soldier at Knightsbridge. An
examination took, place early next morning, before
the Rev. Dr. Bate Dudley, in the Barracks, when
the evidence.appeared so clear against a man who
calls himself George Alger, and stated that he was a
hair-dresser in the City, that he was fully committed
by that Magistrate to Newgate, to be triad for that
horrible offence:

An Italian Journal mentions, that in July last, the
skeleton of a man, ten feet three inches high, was
dug up in the valley of Mazara, in Sicily. Human
skeletons, of gigantic size, hare heretofore been found
iu the same spot.
A number of unprincipled persons are now em.
ptoyed in obtaining, under various pretences, the old
half-crowns which are in circulation. The silver-
smiths, to whom they carq them, melt them down in
general, in lieu of bullion, for the manufacture of
silver articles.

might not bare presumed to reply to so
exalted a character as, in your estimation, you ap-
pear, if it was not to prevent your evident inclina-
tion to connect Mr. Malays with the writer of the
articles which you so whimsically complain of. He
had no knowledge of such statements whatever.—
And now, Sir, you may allow me to ask, how it
happened that you did not condescend to attempt
some refutation of the only assertion of fact con-
tained therein, viz. that Mrs. C. KEMBLE refused to
continue the performance of her original and conti-
nued character of Judith, before you begin to blus-
ter out your threats of legal process ? But, gentle-
conditioned Sir, my Solicitor shall be wady to meet

wisdom, you should conceive this to be the best mode
of terminating the discussion !—Your's, &c.

MESSRS. BROUGHAM 4ND MKERRELL.

We copy the following, as addressed to the Editors
of the Liverpool 11..rcury:—
GLNTLEMLN,-1 have read with considerable plea.
sure and satisfaction the two letters of your corre-
spondent M. N. inserted in your numbers of the 14th
and 21st inst. which contain a complete attd triumph-
ant refutation of the charges of falsehoods ana mis-
representation brought against Mr. Brougham by Mr.
M'Kerrell. It would be unnecessary and imperti.
nent in me to add any thing thereto, if it were not
for the purpose of stating a fact which is of consi-
derable importance, as shewing the opinion enter-
tained by Ministers with respect to the evidence of
M'Kerrel!, and which has never, I believe, appeared
in print.
I state, on the authority of Shakespear Phillips,
Esq. the worthy Chairman of the Public Meeting
lately held were for the purpose of returning thanks
to the advocates for the Repeal of the Orders in
Council, that Mr. Rose :requested, us a personal fa-
your from Mr. Brougham, that he would permit
Kerreles evidence to be expunged ; for (said hell
fit continued on the minutes, it tail' not be solo
for him to walk' along, Ike street. of Londe*.
It is needlesi to enter into any examination of the I
evidence. The authentic copy given in the Morning
Chronicle, of the 15th inst. sets the matter in dispute
at rest for ever, and certainly justifie. the application
to M'Kerrell of the opprobrious epithets he basio.
profusely lavished on Mr. Brougham.
[Our Correspondent will excuse a trilling omission
in this place.] I am yosir's, &c.
Outchester, ANNA 11.3. 11311. N. D. K.

As a proof of the candour of Mr. M'Kerrell, we
select the following paragraphs from his printed state-
ment.—ln his letter to Mr. Brougham, dated June-.
26, he says, " I have the authority of several Meat. I
bers of the Committee who were present, to state,
tbat although from personal motives of regard for.
me, it was desired that the evidence should not be
printed „front anapprehension that feelings inimical to
me might be excited in the minds of that class of, peo-
ple of whorJ was involuntarily called upon to speak,
they felt no horror, &c.—liut In his statement in the
Times, dated 20th July, he says, "a conversation
took place between Mr. Rose, Mr. Stephen, Mr.
,Johnstone, Mr, Marrvatt, Mr. A. Baring, and Mr.
Brougham, when, as I am informed, the) agreed that
a part of my evidence to which the questions of Mr. i
prougham had led, should be °sponged, at bearing'',
sekly upon a point of political econmny, and having
no reference to the Orders in Council, the professed
object upon which I was called to give evidence."---1,

native country, and devotion for its Monarch, which,
has awakened their ardour for the greatest sacrifices ;
at a time when, to repulso the enemy, and preserve
the general safety, it is necessary to make great sa-

to repel the feelings of my heart, in taking an active
part in furnishing the means of supply for our war-

It is my wish to raise on my hereditary estates, seer-

ANSWER OF THE EXPERoR ALEXANDER, IN HIS OWN
London, England, 1812-01-01

LONDON:
WEDNEMAT, JANUAa'f 1) 1812.

The Journals of the day are extremely anxious
to have it believed throughout the kingdom, that the
PRINCE REGENT has entered into positive engagements
with the present Ministers, and that no change will,
of course, take place. Upon this subject we have
extracted the following articles from two Papers of
this morning :
" It is so perfectly undenteod to be settled,
that no change will take place in the Ministry previ.
ous to the opening of the Session, that arrangements
are actually made for all the matter to be, submitted
to the two Houses by Mr. PERCETAL. The Ad-
dress is to be moved by Lord Jocnan and seconded
by Mr. Vysz."—(Morning Chronicle.)
44 We understand it to have been finally arranged,'
that Mr. PERCEVAL not only onsets Parliament on the
7th inst. as Minster of the Cmsattry, hAsf tkat-

annoy us, our ,sole hope is placed in the firmness
of the Piwicc, whose discernment, at a very eapty
period of life, discovered the value of au attachment
to the genuine principles of the Constitutions and
all its true supporters, which has never varied either
in its warmth, sincerity, or activity ; arid which, we
are happy in the belief, his Royal flightless yet con-
tinues tO•cherisls.mith the affection it deserves. This
indeed is consolatory ; beset as he is by men who
will feel little scruple iu abusing a temper naturally

We do not pretend. to be in the secrets of Carlton
House, nor are we inclined to doubt that Mr. PER..
rCEYAL is to be entrusted with the necessary arrange-
meats previous to the meeting of Parliament, be-
cause, as his Royal Highness has thought proper to
continue the present Ministers in power until the
expiry of the Regency Restriction Act, nothing can
be more natural than that he should authorise their
leader, Mr. PERCETAL, to prepare the opening
speech for Parliament ; and
,that• the Loan (:HAN
CELLOS, ai the head of the Commission, should de-
liver that speech to both Houses. But to infer from these
circumstances, that the conduct of public affairi is
afterwards to be continued in the hands of this party,
is an inference not more unwarrantable thin it is ri-
diculous. Ever Since the passing if the Keeney

POLICE.

filantsrmoveirt-sTamrTwo respectable dressed children,
a girl and a boy, of the ages of ten and eight years, were pro-
duced before the Magistrates, they having been left by their, mo-
ther, the wife of a country Innkeeper, at the 01.1 NI isle Horse
Cellar, without protection. It appear dby the statement of
the children, that their father kept the Crown Gnu, at Plymouth,
and that he had accompanied them with their mother to the
coach, u Melt arrived at the Old White llorse Cellar on NVed-
tiestlay afternoon. The mother sent the children to Duke-
street; in the neighbourhood, to seek the house of an aunt, and
after a fruitless search they returned, when the mother had fled,
and no tidings u hatever had been had of her. The situation Of
the poor ettilo'ren eteited the compassion of the inn keeper, who
took them wider his fostering care. Whilst the story was being
related, the mother was brought op from St. Gilrs's watch-
house, charged with having been disorderly in the streets at
midnight, and this was the first tidings of her. She had 111.
when she left the Inn, which was reduced to 41. and she had log
her bonnet, pelisse, tee. It was evident that the unfortunate
woman laboured under strong woad derangement, and this was
further corroborated by passengers in the coach, To questions
put, she gave such answers as an insane person would do, and
her looks were altogether wild and desponding. Mr. FAKER,
the Magistrate, recommended her to the humanity of the pa-
rish officers of St. Giles's, until her husband should be in-
formed of the affair, and the Proprietor of the Coffee-house, at
the Old White Horse Cellar, took the children under his pro-
tection.

London, England, 1812-10-16

VETUS ruf. DET.IINED IN FRANCE.

TO Tan EDITOR O' THE STATEqMAN.

The vehement attack made by this writer on the
Earl of Ynnmou flf, for presuming to defend the
conduct of Fr.lnce, in detaining the persons of those
resi,ling in her territories, on the rupture of the
Peace of Amiens, I conceive, calls for some animad-
version ; especially as this writer has produced
nothing like argument in support of his declamation,
or stated any grounds, founded on the Law of Na-
'lions, to prore that France, in adopting that measure,
violated those rights which all civilised States had re-
: cognised, in the compilations of GROTIUS, Purres-
DORFF, and VATTEI.L.

The Press had been sufficiently inundated with
abuse of BONAPARTE, for his alleged breach of
these laws, long before the flippant oratory of the
passage in VETUS'S Tenth Letter; but as the para-
graph is too long to quote here, I must beg to refer
you to that Journal; and proceed to state my
sentiments on this transaction, as briefly as pos-
sible.

But the compliments paid in this letter to the Ad.
ministration of Mr.Aont Nan*: (now Lord Sidmouth),
are not only, in my opinion, unmerited, but highly
pernicious to the public morals. ilia talents, as a
statesman, are contemptible, almost in the extreme;
if we except only those talents of deception, by the
use of which he contrived to spin out the time that ,
this Treaty was permitted to continue until the day
he brought down the Message, which put an end to
it; and never was the grounds of any public act, more
completely refuted, than were the grounds of the
Declaration of War by Mr. Fox, on the 25th of
May, ISO 3, when the whole was sobmittelby Mi-
nisters to Parliament for discussion ; indeed, if Mr.
Fox had only entered upon the real grounds (►which
Ministers concealed) that induced them to enter into
the Treaty—his speech would lump received a new
illustration; and proved one of the most important
L pieces of political history, that ever had been record-
ed in our annals.

What Mr. Fox has omitted, I will here take the
liberty of endeavouring to supply ; and as your co-
lumns are too important to be taken up in compli-
ments and deprecations, either to one party or the
other, I must beg your excuse for omitting them,
and proceed to say, that the Treaty of Amiens was
a necessary coasquence of Mr. PIT r's resignation of
oaiee.—A resignation which he was compelled to
adopt, from the dilapidated state of the finances ;
for, on the Ist of February, 1801, the aniount of
the Unfunded 13,‘iit, was no less than 138,680,000 i.
—The Unfunded DAt, not Withstanding the Income
Tax, and the other unprecedented means for keep-
ing it under,which he previously had recourse to, was
now become too heavy for his shoulders, and as he
could npt himself •negotiate a Treaty of Peace with
FrAnce, he was obliged to resign that task to other
hands.. Itv doing so he certainly did eßpoint his awn
rowans and 4epetulpts though he eye one

it„rt. The company assembled .tlnlin adjourned to
the Nisi Prius Court, where the election took place,'
!fithout t!.e least hindrance. The late Sir G. Web-
qer was deservedly beloved by all ranks and descrip-
tions of people, throughout the whole of the extend-
ed limits of this county. The amiable qualities of
die father are far from being obscured in the dispo-
;Pion of his descendant.—The same spirit, in fact,
seems to actuate him, and to emanate from his deter.
minations ; and, with such powerful advocates in
hi% favour, the result of his election was long since
anticipated, and his success ensured.

TAtrsrrow.—On Thursday sennight this elec-
tion was decided by S. C. Graves, Esq. signifying his
determination to resign the contest. Mir:.Baring and
Mr. Collins are therefore again returned fur this Bo-
rough. At the close of the poll the numbers were—
Mr. Bariug
Mr. Colliuts .
Mr. lir tve t;')

Oat of the whole number polled on this occasion,
it is a singular fact, that there were were only NINE
persons n i!o did not vote fur Mr. Baring—an incon-
testible proof of the very high respect in which that
gentleman's public character is held, and a gratifying
assurance that he need only persevere in the same
honourable path he has hitherto pursued, to secure
the unabated confidence and zealous attachment of
the electors.
Mr. Graves, in his farewell address, imputes his
defeat entirely to the latene-s of his canvass, and to
the con-a-pent promises obtliaod from the electors
by the ottn-r elinlidates. This gentleman, whose
talents amply justify the most.unlimited calculation
of his future eminence, has pledged himself to stand
for Taunton at the first opportunity. Should he ever
obtain a seat in the Legislature, we will venture to
predict that the happiest exhihitions of intellect by
our most eminent statesmen, in the very noon of
their parliamentary lives, may be again witnessed in
the glowing eloquence and capaciousness of under-
standing which distinguishes this gentleman's public
exortions.
On his nomination, Mr. Graves made some point.
eta observations on %slut his conduct should be, and
hinted at the probability of instantly prosecuting some
daring enq oiry. We undurstantl, from common Tv-
Dort, that 110 is iu pOSSeSSIOII of the famous Book,
• The &bk." If the fret he so, we comprOtend his
•• ;ming, stud shall rejnicv to Fee that mysterious mat-
• unravelled ; if his allusion extended to any thing
ire, we cannot understand it.

SURREY SESSIONS, ./Av. 29.

Jame: Floyd ilopkins and John Bates were in-
dicted for assaulting Mary Seiwood.
Mr. Nos for the prosecution stated, that this
was one of the most brutal and aggravated assaults
that had ever come before a Jury. The Prosecutrix
was a poor woman, between Q 0 and 70 years of ago,
who got her living by taking in washing ; she was a
married woman, but received no pecuniary aid from
her husband for several years. The Defendant, Hop-
kins, was an officer of the Court of Requests, and
Bates was his assistant. In July 1810, the Promo.
trix was summoned for a debt of Bs. Bd. du` tea
milk w oman named Rounders ; when before the Com-
missioners, she stated that she was a m trriA woman,
and where her husband was to be found, and the
Court, under all the circumstances, thought fit to
make an order that the husband should pay the debt,
and from that period till October last, the Prosecu-
trix heard nothing more on the subject. On the day,
of that month, however, mentioned in the indictment,
the Prosecutrix being confined to her bed-room up
two pair of stairs by a very serious and dangerous,
malady, a hemorrhage, Bates and Hopkins entered
her room, and informed her they had got an execu-
tion against her, and unless the money was immedi.
ately paid, she must go to the Clink prison. The
Prosecutrix urged her inability to go, and reminded
Hopkins he must know she was not liable, as he was
present when the Commissioners made the order on
her husband; and was leaving the room to go into a
front room, when Hopkins struck her a violent blow
on the face, which knocked her down, he then drag..,
ged hey to the top of the stairs, and taking hold of,
her legs, whilst Bates placed his knees against her
shoulders, and pushing her forward, they thus drag-
ged her on her back down two pair of stairs. The
cries of the unfortunate woman alarmed the other
lodgers in the house, and one of them, Mrs. Bates,
went out and called in a respectable tradesman, nam-
ed Windsor, who lived next door. Mr. Windsor re-
monstrated with the Defendants, but without etreett
and at length paid the money. The stairs were co-,
eered with blood, as was that part of the Prosecu-
trix's apparel which was not torn from her back in
dragging her down stairs.
The facts were proved by the testimony of several
witnesses, amongst whom the apothecary who Et-
-1 tended her, and whe proved that she was still in a
dangerous state from the violent treatment she had
received.
The Defendants, in justification, pleaded, that
they acted under the authority of a warrant of exe-
cution, and that they had used no greater dee-
violence than was necessary to secure
who had attempted to escape.
The Jury, without hesitation, found
Pendants Guilty.
The Ceatemax (Mr. Jackson) animadverted
strong terms on the aggravated offence
Defendants had been guilty, which,
would call for exemplary punishment,
a compensation to the Proseeutrix, and
the Court would not consider 1001.0
for the Defendants to pay.
The Defendiusts were committed tilt
they were again. brought up) sod P'

sair, aml carried into captivity. During his absence, Tcra!di

thousand hair-breadth escapes, Baino meets his wife in a cot-

marry her, though no reason is adduced why he should not have.
