Mn. SxowDEN.-My attention was directed
to the extract, furnished for your paper, with
regard to the too common custom OF tight
dressing, and so sensibly was impressed with
the i'll consequences resulting therefrom, that
my waist, since that time, has increased at least
two-thirds in thickness, spite Of my aunt's ell
forts 10 the contrary.--I have felt 80 comtorta-
bic under this new arrangement, thatl am per-
suaded, if The generality Of my pet'icost friends
would make the experiment, the vendors OF
those once necessary articles, vu'gar'y known
nv The name Of CoRsETs, would find customers
only among the "nobler SCI" JULIA.

express 10 you my acknowledgment Tor the
which is intended to be shewn
me, by this respectful allusion 10 the memory
of nv dear and lameuted relation invited as
your guest, J. have come in the expectation
merely of partaking in the fes'i'iIy OF the oc.
casion, and Of reciprocating the sentiments o,
your toasls by giving one in my turn; haa
seasonably anticipated that which has been an
nounced,sf would have been, in some measure
prepared to run parallel between the SITUATION
of the people of Ireland, al this time, and that
of my own country at the period when the indi-
viduals Just mentioned, their associates, at the
risk of their lives and fortunes summoned their
coun,rymen 10 resist oppression. II would De
easy 10 point out similarity IN many cucum-
stances; and I should be proud otthe OCCASION
Of showing, by numerous recoliectons, that
the honored patriots Of those days, IN all mat
related to the rights OF colonies and OIL con-
science, and the Fundamentals OF civil liberty,
had Irish hearts and were animated oy irish
principles. However strong the resemblance
may be, in many particulars, between these cas-
es Of oppression, originating in the same source,
i. is devoutly 10 be wished, Tor the sake OF hu-
mainly, that the analogy may not ho'd 20 !he
end-but, on the other hand, that the British
nation may perceive ,hisgs which belong 10
her peace, before they are hid from her eyes.
| cannot but trust that these wishes Will be
realized without resor, to hostile measures, and
that il will not be the doom OF the Irish peo-
pie, in pursuing their ips, claims, 10 draw the
sword, and stain the verdant shamrock with
their blood and their tears. Let US hope that
the spirit Of the age aud the discernment and
iberaii,y of their fellow subjects in Great Brit
ain, will speedily bring round happy era in
their affairs, and that the Emerald Isle will
smile upon the ocean, the delightful abode Of
liberty and public happiness, as ii has always
been Of hospitality and Of the best qualities OF
our nature.
Whatever may be the result, congralu-
late you and myself, that there is one country
at least which offers an asylum to prosecuted
public virtue, and is glad 10 receive into its
arms and protection the good and honest OF all
climes-a country in which merit and talents
are rewarded BY honor and distinction, as was
e1empli6ed in the instance OF your lamen'ed
Emme,; and where honesty and industry find
sure compensation, as is confirmed by the ex-
perience Of many, and the observation OF all
who hear me. | beg leave 10 conclude this
mere effu,ion Of feeling by toast
"TAe Marquis of AseLrsEI, late Vieeroy Of Ireland
Illustrious by birth, illustrous by achievement
and most of all lustrious by his contempt for office
which he was not permitted to sustain for the benefit
of the people, the whole people, and nothing but the

CAuTIoS.-A few nights since The iolloain,
strange affair took place in Court street. Som.
gentlemen Of the law, having suspected thu,

whereupon two other persons stepped forward,
and kindly volunteered to take The man 10 To.

themselves before they followed. The offer was

the hint will have its effect hereafter

most confident in the belief, that every case
which has broken out may be traced 10 him.
One Of The physicians in the ntighborhood has
been taken with The disease; and u there could
be the smallest doubt Of The origin Of the dis
order, we understand il is in his case. The o.
