THE N the Royal Blood, to extol the exploits of a G e neral, berated when he ought to have acted, who advanced when he should have retreated, and whose retreat was a disorderly flight before a handful of pursuers; while they force another C,eneral to resign, though victorious, because the climate, the elements, and other unforeseen occurrences, prevent him from succeeding to the whole extent of extravagant expectations ? Have they not forced their King to leave unpunished a political agent," who de served to be impeached for want of ability, or of integrity in disobeying and disregardeig his instructions? Have they not forced their King to leave unrewarded another political ageutt, whose firmness, and whose obedience to the orders of his Sove- reign, exposed him to Public insult and personal dangers ? Have they nat forced their King to swallow, without daring to resent, these and other provocations, though qrcred by the most weak and contemptible of Goveruntonts it But in all the branches of the con stitutional establishments of Great Britain, factions sway an anar chical iron sceptre, confounding, deranging, and invading all order. Has not a Captain in the British fleet, cruizing in Eu rope, dragged his Admiral before a Court-martial ? Though the latter has been honourably acquitted, have not factions shielded the accuser from punishment? Have not Officers serving in the British At my in India seduced the soldiers to mutiny ? Have they not, backed by faction, added rebellion to insubordination, and held out the most dastardly and perjurous proceedings as me titorious acts of patriotism, and of retaliating justice ? Is not the licentiousness of the British press such, that, protected and patro nized by factions, a convicted libelled published from his prison the most inflammatory of essays, defying the laws, and exciting ci vil discords, insulting equally the J udge who condemned him, and ths.Governmeot that carried that sentence into execution ? Has riot a Chief of Factions, who is also a Member of Parliament, honestly told his Assembly, that the Nation was not represented by its Representatives, and that their Country was not worth defending ? Were they not instantly all on tire—those very fac tions that shortly before, with such admirable and philosophical patience heard the Son of their King most unmercifully ill used ? Dlid not these friends of liberty immediately decree a mandate of arrest against the declaimer of this disagreeable truth—of this bold frankness ? Now, British anarchy exhibited itself in all its dreadful glory. Faction combats faction.—Numbers of lives are lost in the very streets of the capital where a civil war rages with its fury.—But mark : when, at last, the humanity of the King orders his guards to prevent further bloodshed, a factious Jury pronounces them marderous, because they did their duty, and did not submit to be murdered themselves by the hands of the rebellious faction ? The proprietors of a theatre in London augment a trifle the prices of admittance. Englishmen., like the Romans of san guinary memory, do nut miss such a propitious opportunity to create new factions. The most disgusting scenes, the effects of the most shameful licentiousness, transform the theatre into a field of battle for boxers and bruizers, for strumpets and pick- ! pockets. ..Iniong a people that talk so much of respect for pro perty, the property of individuals is openly invaded, and obliged to submit to the ruinous maximunt of dictatorial factions. Ought ' it not to be apprehended, that prosperous anarchy will not stop at the door or in the pit of a till a:re, but sooner or later force an entrance into banks, offices, and nenoteaines, there also to affix its maximum—to inflict its requisitions ? Since the wisdom of his Imperial and Royal Majesty has in structed the Continent with regard to its true intertet, continen• 'tal warriors are no longer tributary to insular pedlars ; and Eng lishmen, who in exchange for their dearly sold superfluities, re ceived from foreigners their necessaries almost for nothing, be gan to dread a famine. To lessen the consumption for grain, government looked for some substitute from tha distilleries. Their warehouses weighing down with perishable colonial pro duces, sugar naturally presented itself, and was proposed. The owners of land took instant alarm ; they formed an opposition, and during months, the grain and ule sugar factions, with the theatrical and the reforming factions, with the naval and the mili tary factions ; with the jacebir, the city, and the Parliamentary factions, continued to enrage the v: hole attention of a truly fac tious, divided, and licentious people. This is not the only in stance wilt ti the interior of I anidon forms a striking resemblan :e with the interior of Constantiaople, at the period the Mussel men were at its walls, and with their scymetars soon settled the dispu es of the contending sects and parties. Every foreign invader of the British islands has become con queror. Bankruptcy may dismantle; mutiny may disperse; storms may destroy and victory may capture fleets, hitherto the sole protector of Great Britain against the just wrath of his Im perial andßoyal Majesty. Submission alone can prevent Britons from being like the Batavians, erased from the list of independent nations. Resistanca may retard in making more terrible the ca tastrophe, but it cannot alter their destiny. They have no choice left between obeditnce or conquest. The reigning House never produced a hero, and the domestic virtues of a Prince ruling this Erskine. t United Statei; t Cobbett. § Burdett. , people are weak pledges that the repose of continental nations wig not still be disturbed or invaded.—lt re main, however, to he decided, whether a charge. of dynasty will be necessary, or a change of constitution will be thought sufficient ? .Long ago, the mere assent of his Imperial and Royal Majesty might have produceda general overthrow. l .ong ago have different factions caufed to Le laid before his Imperil and Royal Majesty, both requests for receiving support, and plans for effect ing revolutions. ' Put theite are not :lines to encourage subjects to undermine establi.bed thrones. Monarchs, alone, shall here after be the judges of Monarchs ; and woe to the Prince who re sorts to an appeal to his people against the sentence of his equals !!! lie has ceased to reign.

New-Yox x, Ju ?A.—Yesterday afternoon arrived off Sand/ Hook, the British sloop of war Sapphire, from Berniti'a, anti this morning an Officer belonging to her came up to town with dispatches relative to the affair between the United States Mote President and the British sloop of war Little Belt. We un- derstand they consist of an official letter from Admiral Saw. yer, enclosing Capt. Bingham's letter, containing a very minute and circumstantial detail of what took place, from the moment he descried the President to the close of the battle which termi: nated so disastrously to his ship. The disratches were stet rtrt to Mr. Morier, the British Minister at Washington, brthibday's mail. • FROM MA DR As —Captain Thompson, who arrived this ter. noon in lt.B days from Madras, informs u,, that an expedition was fitting out tiler,. by the British under the command of Act. miral Drury, for the purpose of going against the island of Java.

The Dublin Evening Post, which we received yesterlay, con tains the following important information • 44 We stop the Press to announce to the Public, that a Privy Council sat this day (Wednesday) at the Castle and that it was resolved to issue a Proclamation, prohibiting the election or De. legates to the Catholic Committee. This Official l)ucumeut is an elaborate producti , ,n, being written with m,.re care than ti:a former no ffication for a similar purpos.- frAn the Castle, is signed by 1 Privy Councillors. It enumerates the Res-lutions of the Catholic Committee, then quotes a section of the-Con. vention Act, and &dart s it to be the intention of the Govere. meat to enforce the penalties of the law against such persons as should proceed to elect Deputies, Managers, or Delegates, to thy Catholic Cotranittte, " It appears that the Lord Lieutenant's Secretary had write ten officially to Lord Fineall on the subject of the Catholic Coin. mittce, and that his Lordship had two interviews with Mr. Pole. It is stated that the Secretary had declared the system of. delegation to be alto•,!ether illegal, adding, that the Irish Go vernment would be under the necessity of enforcing the Con. vention Act, if the measure should not be abandoned ; and eu. treating his Lot dship to withdraw the sanction of his rank from the Catholic Committee. It is also states, that Lord Fingall asked the Secretary, whether it was the wish of the Irish Go vernment that such sentiments should be conveyed to the Catho lic Committee, and that Mr. Pole requested his lordship to suspend the communication until' the return of an Expr e ss from London." 44 We avail ourselves of the opportunity of a stop-press, to state a rumour that has just reached our Office. It is bald, Oro W. W. Pole has warned Lord Fingal! nut to proceed, in :slim the Secreta:y thinks proper to call " an Insurrectionary. Mai sure," by attending the Catholic Committee.
