.Mr. GRIFFITHS rose once more to bring
forward a subject, to which be had many times
trade ineffectual attempts to draw the attention of
the Court. He alluded to the defective state of

grievoee inconvenience. It was necessary to re.

Fans( Germany, Dutch Papers to the 9th have
been received, which bring down the intelligence
from Vienna to the 24th ult. at which time no.
thing with certainty was known on the subject of

peace or war, for either of which NAN:meet(
seems to be prepared, as he is stated to have
300,000 men under his command in Germany.

WHEN will wonders cease—Mr. CHOKER, mi.
ruble dictoil Secretary to the Admiralty !!!

It is stated, that the report which was in cireu.
lation a few days ago, respecting the probability
of a pacific mission from this country, took its
rise from the circumstance of a Gentleman having
lately set out for France, having obtained letters
of credit from a banking house upon Paris, to
the amount of 6 et 7,0001. The object of this
IGentleman's journey, it is said, merely relates to
the British prisoners kft at Talavera.
•Mr. R. DUNDAS arrived in Dublin on Friday
last.

makers, &c. marched in different divisions to
Deptford, in ordet to embark for Walcheren, to
prepare quarters and barracks fur the British
troops for the winter.
At the dinner given a few days ago by the Coe.
Dp oration of the City of Cork to his Grace the
Doke of Ricnstoen, a Gentleman proposed the
following toast : " The glorious and immortal me.
mory of King WILLIAM 111. who put duwn Pope
and Popery." The Loan 'LIaUTEttANT
diately rose, and objected to drink that toast ;
and having commented with some severity on its
evident tendency, his Grace " trusted nu toast
would be persevered in of a similar nature." This
severe and timely rebuke had a due effect, and was
received with much satisfaction by the enlightened
and liberal. The Lome LILOTLN tNT has always
taken occasion in public assemblies to declare,
" that his mission to Ireland had principally for
its object, by express and earnest desire of the Se.
vereign, to conciliate, not to estrange the affections
of the Roman Catholic Body, as well as every
other class of the peuple."
A very erroneous statement having appeared in
the Papers, of the number of prisoner' of war in
Great Britain, we arc assured, that the number
in all of French, Dutch, Danes, and Russians,
dews not amount to ouch more than 45,000.
The harvest iu the North of Scotland, we are
happy to learn, is already far advanced, parties-
! laity iu Banff and Moray Shires, where the use of
the scythe has become pretty general.
The young Lady who lately belaboured her
lover with a bout-jack, said in her defence, and
very appropriately too, that she was only urged by
the spur of the occasion.
In all the proceedings instituted at Bow.street,
respecting Covent-Garden Theatre, Mr. BRANDON
acts the part of prosecutor. The Prompter, how.
ever, keeps in his proper place—behind Ike scenes.
We have authority from Mr. 8101 to say, that
the orders distributed by the Jews in the neigh.
bourhood of the Royal Exchange, were signed by
J. BRANDON.

JUBILEE.
it will be remembered by our Readers that Mr.
Weithusesi, in bis speech on the subject of the
Jubilee last Thursday bet one in the Court of
Common Council asserted, that he h•id heard that
scone Members of that Court hail long ago ap-
plied 6• to distant Corporate Bodies to induce
66 those Bodies to originate the Ju'dlee."
We now present our readers with an anony.
mess letter to no less a person than the Chief
Mesistiete of Glasgow, written expressly for the
patinsie aUedged by Mr. Waithinati, and so lung
alb as the month of August last. The letter,
tkoesk anony mow, carries with it internal est-
ates°, that it is a 64 t. irculer.” And we trust, that
derpublicsitiou of the liters we have extracted
from that respectable paper the Glasgtrw Courier
will have the effect of indecing such independent
Gentlemen as may be in possession of similar let-
ters, ro publish them for the infornistion of the
People of the Visited &spire, to whom we beg
hove to make one single observation—that the
assertions of Mr. IVeitinnan never rest on light
gromnds.
