administration, always leaned to lenlent meas

not met with equal success. AS worthless lei
low as Wilkes is, the rigors exercised towards
him have raised spirit that will require still
wiser heads to allay. Men have again turned
seriously to the study of those controversies that
agitated this country an hundred years ago; ana
instead of dipping In Roman and Greek histories,
for flowers to decorate the speeches OF false pa
triotism, principles are revived that have taken
deeper root (; and hope we may not see quarrelS
of graver complexion than the dirty squaDDles
for places and profit. Persecution for politics
has lust the same issue as for religion it spreads
the oppressed doctrine; and though l think
Wilkes as bad man as if he were SAINT, he

martyrdom Thank God that he has not turned

FOREIGN FEAR OF PIrr-On every occasion
beg you to be as naughty as may be; you no
longer represent the King, but Mr.. Pitt; and pray
keep up all the dignity Of his crown 1t Will be
your own fault if you don't huff yourself INTO
red riband. This is my serious advice; as well as
my temper. You know love to have the ma
jesty Of the people of England dictate to all Eu-
rope Nothing would have diverted me more
than to have been at Paris at this moment. Their
panic at Mr.. Pitts name is not to be described!
Whenever they were impairment, l used to drop
as by chance, that he would be Minister IN few
days; and it never failed to occasion dead
silence.
The BYRON DuEL.-We are likely to have
another solemn puppet show, the trial OF Peer
Lord Byron has killed Mr.. ChaWorth In duel
at tavern. I, who should like the trial of a Laud
Or Stafford, as wholesome spectacle now and
whose birth alone procures his being treated like
IN overgrown criminal This quarrel was about
yame; and the very topic should send it to the
Quarter Sessions.
For some time had nothing to tell you; but
he trial of Lord Byron solemn scene for
worthless man. but whose former faults had
yiven handle to i'll nature to represent him as
guilty Of an event which truly it had been very
difficult for him to avoid. He escaped with life
and recovered some portion of honor, if that can
comfort him after the publicity made OF his char
acter, and the misfortune of killing an amlabe
man. but one not blameless in the late instance.

WALpoLE ON WlLKEs-This hero is as bad
fellow as ever hero was abomnable IN private
tfe dull in Parliament, but they say, very enter
tanning in room, and certainly no bad writer,
besides having had the honor of contributing
creat doal to Lord Ruto's fall Wilkes fought
Lord Talbot in the autumn, whom ne had abused
and lately in Calais, when the Prince &c Croy,
the Governor, asked him how far the liberty Of
the press extended in England replied, cannot
tell, but am trying to know.
AN EARLY APPEARANCE OF COLONEL BARRIE
The hero of the day was the famous Colonel
Barre--a man, or | am mistaken, whose fame
will not stop here. He spoke with infinite wit
and honor, and with that first of merits to me,

with extreme bitterness; which IS almost new

foresaw it possible that, if one OF them should
die, his successor might be the most dssolute and

u Mr.. D'IsRAELI, the younger, son OF the
able author of 'Curosities of Literature and
himself the writer of the Revolutionary Epic
and Vivian Gray, is a man OF considerable
genius, has obtained perfect knowledge OF
foreign affairs and diplomatic dongs, gets up his
speeches with much care, and lately has made
some impression in the House, and not a little
out of it. He has attacked Sir Robert Peel Will,
great boldness, and denounced his policy both al
home and abroad. He is member for Shrews
bury, and of Hebrew descent. That melancholy
fanatic, Mr.. Lane Fox, member for Ipswich
quite worships Mr.. DIsraeli, believing him TO h.
the coming man. Sir Robert Peel smartly al
luded to tins circumstance IN n recent debate
and as Mr.. D'lsracl said the country wanted
some great mind to arise who could understand
their principles, and their application, of modern
government. Sir Robert waggishly tainted The
honorable with being himself the coming man.
The House excessively reliShed the joke.
