ORIGINAL POETRY.

The pernelples of this illustrious man are true, or they
are false. If they are 'false, they certainly will gain
no proselytes ; for falsehood, from its nature, carries
self-detection anti decay within itself. If, on the other
hand, his principles are trite, to punish him for their
dissetnivation is not only unjust, but it is dangerous,
and ,nut ultimately he inefTeLtual. Truth is all pow-
erful in its nature. It may not improperly be called
the tun of the moral and philosophical world; for it
(Mises life and intelligence throughout the system :
and opposition to its influence is scarcely so much the
sign of wickedness as it is that of fully and
absurdity! • Truth has invariably burst the bands of
superstition, nliether shielded under the mysteries of
an heathen mythology, or the more artful and cruel
dogmas of the !lowish Church. Truth has, notwith-
itiading these obstacles, opened the paths to science
and genclue philosophy : and can it then be possible
that a Government; which is a mere human iuventi..n ;
at bast a necessary evil ; is it possible, we say, that a
Government can be so framed as to etishrond its errors
from this penetrating influence? A moment's re-
flection will thew its impos,ibility; and, if
our Minisfeh can bring themselves to meths*
eae cause of the late convulsion on the Continent,
they will bare little tliffiettlty in tracing that cause to
line of conduct too fearfuNy analrgous to their own.
It unlit Goo we might flatter ourselves, that such
an examination would lead to a clot nee of measures!
but our only reliance for the scromplishinent of inch
a Aloe, is on the comma.iding voice of those who
ale really the representatives of the people; for, with
reference to the councils of our Rulers, the fatal ex-
perience of the past, forbids onr placing any hopes
upon the feture—Soaatitution S:'nday Paptr).

five ; of which upwards of tweuty have been declared ;
the losses which some of the members hare experi .ssced
has been immense, and naturally put a cheek upon

look a• if they would be worse.

The French papers of Thursday contain a variety
of conflicting accounts respecting the intentions of the
allied powers in regard to Naples. The Joe tied de
l'arie asserts, on the authority et letters from Milan,
that the Austrian Army will not be put in motion,
nor even place,' on the wsr establishment. The mo-
tives of the cab; let of Vienna, it further adds, for this
determination are not ascertained, though the ru-
mours of a general pacification are represented as be-
ing nidely circulated. The Ministers, it also states,
of the great powers at Troppau have addressed a de-
claration to the present government of Naples. Tae
Ga.:efir 4k Fradee in some measure contradicts
the above intelligence, on the authority of COMMU-
rtirations received from Vienna. These state that
" the ailied Sovereigns cannot recognise the Coastal'.
lion which has been imposed upon the KING, but that'
it will be entirely free to his Hauser to give to his
people such a Constitution as he may deem proper,
provided that it be established upon the same bases
that have been adopted for the organisation of the
Austrian Ftatesiof Italy. It is added, that should
this declaration `not be snfficie.ut to produce the de.
sited changes in Naples, a manifesto of the Sovereign
xiil he published at the nsoment of the entrance of
the Austrian troops in the Neapolitan territory."
Aeconets Goo 'Naples of the 14th alt. state, that
the new expedition seeder General CAL ETTA had arrived
at Palermo and Geiorral FLANIIST•N Pars had re-
turned from thence to Maples. Palermo, it is asserted,
continued in a state of tranquillity. The Prince de
tATILCIe6LA, it appears, is no longer considered by
the Oeveruesest at Napies as the Neapolitan Ambas-
sador at Patio.

A rernisision leas been presented to the Vicar it'd
Churchwardens of the parish of !dingier, calling on
them to convene a meeting of vestry for the purpose
of congratulating her Majesty on the failure of the
late Bill of Pains and Peasities. The Charchwarders
took time to consider the subject, time Senior &Begin!,
that the meeting could net be called withont the sano-
thin of the Vicar. To this it n-as replied, that in
feet, the Vicar hail nothing to do with it, and that
it reined with the Churchwardens only. The Senior
periisted, however, and the objections was staved in
deference to his better judgment. Oa Friday night
last a refusal to call the meeting was received from time
Churchwarden, the conclusion of his letter iodinating
that the present is a question in which the intermits of
the inhabitants of Islington are not concerned. With
dr. Churchwarden's letter comes one from the Vicar
(who is now a Prebend of Rochester), eoutradiellog
the doctrine of the l'hurchwardens by the following
paragraph r--‘• 1 might net improperly decline com-
municating my s -ntiments on a matter, in which the.-
have the sole right of direction, aid with which I can
pretend no official concern." Th. inhabitants of
Islington, thinking the present question one in which
their interests are concerned& will now meet without
the Churchwardens, and the time fixed for their moot-
ing it Thursday next, at 0 in the evening.

A t N si Prins, before the LAIRD Getter JUSTICE.

irAilltOW v. ceasinow.
This was an action for words spoken.
qr. SCARLUTT stated the case. The parties are
relatives, the plaintiff, Mr. Sparrow, being a trades-
eian in the Strand, and the defendant, Mrs. Sparrow,
the widow of his brother. A difference arose as to
to the disposition of certain property, and Mrs. Spar-
roo :idled Mr. Sparrow an ungracious bird, adding',
.• lon have robbed me and my children: and, more-
eier, you have murdered a man in my house, anti
thereby obliged me to leave it." A charge so an-
•'quivocal openly preferred before the shop of Mr.
Fparrow, and in a street so public as the Strand,
naturally collected a mob round that gentleman's
dour; and it was only by the aiil of a posse of con-
stables that the jocund crew mild be dispersed. The
whole charge, Mr. Scarlett trusted, was •• the very
coinage" of the defendant's brain ; but that lady hav-
ink• stoutly refused all apology, the plaintiff had been
tompelted to vindicate his diameter by an action.

SUTLIIIR O. CiRTER.

Ovnxitv stated that this was an action to reco-
ver from the drfendant, Sarah Carter, as administra-
Wit of her deceased husband, a potion of money which
the plaintiff alleged to be tine to him for work and la-
bour. The plaintiff, it appeared, was by traile a cook.
and had been apprentice to the late Mr. l'Aler, who
was ensitseat in the profusion, as &Must skilful mama-,
lirturer of puddings, pies, jellies, soups, &c. and was,
equally eminent fur baking, roasting, boiling, and all
the secrets of t►e culinary art. Having discharge*
his duty to the present plaintiff as a faithful autl good
master, the apprentice equally renowned as the in-
structor had been, and, at the expiration of his terns
of apprenticeship, he was employed fur a period of
three yawl, namely, from April, IS Hi, to April, ISIS,
as an assistaM. and sharing that period the plaintiff al-
tended, as cook, at several taverns, and at the honses
~f the nobility, and ►y his labours frequently gratified
the taste of an eminent body of the profession, who,
at certain period*, dined at Serjeants' Inn. Ile found.'
however, some diffsculty in obtaining fr his suss,
players the remuneration due to him for his labours.
He did, indeed, receive sums on account front taste to
time, for which he was ready to give credit; but at
the time of Mr. . pirter's death there was a stun irf
1331 die to hint. and to recover that sato the present
action was bronoht.
The Cnt►r Juirtca asked, if this important ques-
tion could not be better settled by reference, as it ap-
peared to be entirely a matter of account between the
parties,
.fendant,

t na was described as skilled in all these branches
of the eelinarj mysteries.
The Curse JusTret—Perhaps, Mr. Scarlett, 3-on

":oIt.SCARI.ETT said he had no objection to do so.
Llr. ill:14,411V dm:fared be was re.sdy to abide the
ordeal iserfermed by his Lordship.
A verdict was then taken for the plaintiff, subject
t, a reference to Mr. Courtney.
CRIMINAL INFURNIATION.
Mr. SChiIILETT moved for a rule to skew cense why
a criminal inforrsation should not be tiled arainst the
Ear, of Westmeath, for sending an insulting message
t., Henry Wood, Esq. with intent to provoke him to
Ilia a duel. Mr. Iroode hid become a trustee, at
Lord Westmeath's request, to a deed of separation be-
t teen th • Sari and his Countess. His Lordship ap-
ivied to the Court of Chancery in March last, to set,
t,.0 deed aside; and on that °erasion Mr. Wetherell,
r. ho was one of the Counsel for the trnstees, made
statements with his Lordship afterwards, in the month
of August, called on Mr. Wriode to disavow ; this Mr.
11'oode declined Joins, use statemeuts objected to being
grounded on Lady Westawath's answer. Lord West-
meath then scut the message in question. As Mr.
Woode was thee attacked in his character as trustee,
actl as a suitor to a Court of Justice, it bream* his
dut to bring the matter before.their Lordships.
The Court granted the rule.
