The misfortancs and trnbles of the Qgoti4djelne from this latter cause, are not a little and, as happcog 'to the parties cone meds abundantly ri- diculous.

Hete wasthe r-esonsibleeditorbought overby the Government; baclkedonly by a Sainor proprictor, opposng himself to the founder of the joutnal, to all the writers of it, and the proprietors of seven-twelfths of'the uihes. The remedy naturally suggestcd to the latter was to dis- miss this scape-got of libels, and to place one of themselves in his ?csponsible situation. Thiswis accordinglydone, and thetcose- 4ucnce was, that two Qulotidienca appeared in one day. The agrents of police of course seized one of them-namely, that :whidh had a slf-dubbcd responsible editor, instead of their onlt friend M. Sn3ro.x. On the following. ight aUl the mznrcding psrties were again on the ground.
