Grafton, we see no reason to fear that they will
depart from SO wise course or, if they should
consider the dcposing of the king a measure

The London Courier, rs was to he expect
ed, has commenced furious attack upon thu
Spanish patriots, whom it denomiuates "re-
bells" +" lacobins," and :" rcgicides," and af-
iects to " laugh" at their efforts to defeat the
attempts to restore the ancient despotism.-
The secret of this defiance, and the antcipa-
ton OF the enemies of Spain, is sufficiently ex-
planned 10y an article contained in the Paris
papers, IN which il is avowed that (" Mr.. Leach,
Vice Chancellor of England is momently ex-
pected in this capital, (Madrd) he has left
London charged with an important mission To
our government"
a more apt tool, or more unprincipled in
strulnent TO carry into effect the designs of the
British Cabinet against the liberties. of Spain
could not have been selected, than the man
who, from becoming an apostate TO the cause
OF liberty, accepted the disgraceful office of
conducting the conspiracy against the late I'M
fortunate Queen ofEnsland.
The King of England since his return to the
capital, has been very busy giving John Bull
lessons on the royal prerogatiue, by Diminishing
from his service such men as dared to ques-
ton his royal pleasure, or to show DISPOSE
ton favorable to the cause of humanity. We
lately had occasion to notice the dismissal of
one of the police magistrates, because he
would not order the military to cut their way
through the people, in order that the funeral
of the Queen might not pass through the city.
Now we have to record similar treatment of
Sir Robert Wilson, who had been dismissed
the service, because as is stated, he suggest
ed the plan of opposition adopted by the po-
pulace on the day of the Queens funeral
There seems 10 be no obstruction TO tine
strides of his Britannia Majesty towards a
complete despotism.
The managers OF Drury Lane Theatre are
making great preparations for a grand pageant;
combining the principal scenes of the Kings
visit to Dublin, in which, it is said, there will
he no less than 40 horses on the stage at Que
time.
a person Of the name OF Gouldston was
tried at the Old Bailey Sessions, and found
guilty of deiIauding the Prussan government,
by Issuing notes, puTporting to be Treasury
notes of one Of the ministers of the King of
Prussia.
An ingenious fraud was attempted to be
committed upon the revenue at Truro, by
several persons who had been in the habit for
some time of giving array beer or ale Gas
they professed) to all corners psomiscuously.
But the ale was accompanied with certain
proportion of biscuits, according TO its mea-
sure. With pint of ale, for instance, three
very small biscuits, in value not IA farthing,
were produced. And ostensiby for these bis
cults, three pence, the actual price of the ale
was paid; with quart of ale, six biscuits at
sixpence. Aud the people dispensing their
biscuits and ale, has been thus pleasantly oc-
cupled under the full persuasion that no law
could arrest them in the exercise of their hos
pitality. They found themselves however
mistaken By this unlicensed conduct, the,
had each incurred the penalty of ESQ, which
on their conviction, the Justices were pleased
to reduce by mitigation to the forfeiture o
Flo for each house, and that fine was ordered
to be levied accordingly.
