EXTR (CT OF A LETTER FROM ONE OF THE GENTLEMEN COMPOSIE6 THE SUITE. " Notwithstanding our abrupt dismissal from the Court, •our journey towards Canton was not only attended by all the usual honours and marks of respect and attention *hewn %to Foreign Embassies, but was rendered personally agreea ble bye greater degree of liberty, than, I believe, was ever enjoyed in China by any Foreign Embassy whatsoever, even by that of Lord Macartney. The liberty of making fregnent *excursions into the country and into the cities, was, perhaps, strictly speaking, a liberty rather token than a liberty giren, but not the least objection was made to it, or the least ob struction thrown in the way of it. The uncommon duration of the journey, which, from the lowness of the rivers iu par •ticnlar spots, extended to four months, afforded unusual op portunities fur these excursions ; but it would have been easy fur the Officers of the Government to have imposed ninth greater restraint, Without even affording the Ambassa dor any very tangible grounds of complaint. The old ground •of Lord Macartney's journey was gone over to a great ex tent, but we also trod a considerable portion of new ground, mr, more properly speakin?, water. The chief novelty, :however, was our navigation, for six weeks, partly on that motile river, the If ang-tse-Kiang, and partly across that great inland sea, the Po-yang lake to Kan-tcltang•6w, during - which we had an opportunity of visiting Nan-king, and the ILuisham, a mountain remarkable for its picturesque scenery. •Captain Nlaxn ell, of the Alceste, and a Deputation of the 'British Factory, met us at a short distance front Canton, into which port the Ambassador Avis conducted by a procession •of boats, but the Canton Chinese were very sulky, and nei ther sainted the Embassy nor turned out a single soldier.— We were lodged in a Temple among the Gods of the heathen, which_ however, to do the Chinese justice, has been fitted .up in a very comfortable mauecr. The Alceste will be ready .about the 24th instant, (January) and we hope to see our .friends-in Estsland the first week in June."

Of this celebrated preacher, it is impossible too speak too highly Distin guished as this Clergyman is, by the most profound ta lents, it gave us infinite pleasure to witness the liberali ty*of his sentiments, and the unbiassed attachment he obviously shewed to every denomination of genuine Chistians. At seven in the morning, the Chapel was crowded toexcess,aad many thousands went off fir want of room.

Lift' INTELLIGENCE. coy wr or Pa:um:tits, DOCTORS' COMMONS, Y 10. This was a Snit for a divorce, broil:lit by Captain John William Dunn against Eliza Pam's iiiii , formerly Wiliiains, his wife. The marriage took place on the Lith of May, 1813. and the parties had two children. who ate now living. In the year 1613 Captain Dunn went to re.tide at Ham•common, and was very intimate with Knightiey Musgrave Clay, lisq. and his mother and sisters. On the llith of October, I i 1.,, Captain Dunn went to his I . :altos' , honer in Lonrho', with m r „ . Dom), and shortly atter their arrivul In eloped from thence, and in the November she was discovered to have been residing at St. 01111•1'S with Mr. Clay, tmder the ussnm. ell name or Brown. Capt. Dinni, in consequence of his wife's protestation' of her innocence, received her On the .ttli of Dec. 1815, she again eloped with Mr. Clay, and went to Lincoln. where they cohabited together under the assumed names of Mr. anti Mrs. neearstm. Alas, Onnti af terward.; trammed to London, and neat to the White fiart, Holborn, where she cohabited with Mr. Clay under the names of Mr. and Alm Best. Captain Demo brought an action against AI r. Clay for damages, and obtained a verdict to the amonnt of 4001. and costs. The Court expressed it , :elf satisfied with the proofs of the marriage, and also that a criminal connexion had taken Ware ; but wished the Counsel to speak to the esti am dimity f econ ciliation which took place between Mr. mud his wile on her return from St. Omer's. After Drs. Lushington and Meyriek had argued for the Plaintiff, and Drs. Swabey and Dodson had replied for the Defendant, Sir Jim Nichol' Nthted the circumstances of the case, and declared himself to be perfectly satisfied with the proofs of the marriage, and that the crime had been cam witted by the defendant. The only question, tle-rethre, that remained, was, whether the liii.band was entitled to the re lief which he prayed. If the husband forgave the infidelity of his wife, he could not come before the Court to seek n re medy for the offence which he has once torgiven. Where there has been great facility of condonation it is but reasona ble to suppose that the husband has not felt very acutely the injury which his honour has sustained, and if, after such con. donation, he has not taken proper precautions to check sub sequent criminality, ke cannot be said to possess that sensi bility to this description of injury which ought to, and does, operate upon every feeling mind. Votenti non fit bthiria. If Courts of Justice were to give a facility to the obtaining di vorces, they would soon cease to be gimrdians of public Illinois, and would only give a facility to their corruption. 'file material points in this case , which the Court will have occa.ion to ettainine, are detailed in the .sth and 6th articks of the libel admitted on the part of Mr. Dunn, and they contain the following allegatioos.—The sth article state*— " That on or about the 16th of October, in the year 1515, John William Dunn went to London, accompanied by hie wife, Eliza Papps Dunn to the house of his father Mr. John Dunn, and soow after their arrival there; Eliza Papps Dunn, in t h e a b sence o f her husband, quitted to the house in a hackney coach and did not return thereto. That Mr. Dunn, being greatly surprised ,t diesudden ills • appearance of his wife, made diligent search for her, at found that she had left London but was unable to discover to what place shelled gone. That in the month of November following, !timidly Ann Papps, the motherof Eliza Papps Dunn, having received intelligence that her daughter was residing at St. Omer 's in France, under as %Sinned name, proceeded thither, where she found Eli za r am . Dann and Knightley Musgrave Clay, living together as man and wife, and passing by the names of Mr. and Mrs. Brown, kr." - - Mrs. Papps has been examined upon this article, and states some extr:torilitiary circumstances. When they had searched fur Mrs. Dunn withowt surcess,she states, " That Nil. Dunn was greatly agitated, and intimate) to her his apprehension that his said wife was gone off with the said Knightley Clay." . Somethitiz then must have happened previously, to induce this •diate suspicion of his friend's honour. After the placo of Mrs. Dimn's retreat had Leen discovered Mrs. Papp, states-- " That she was requested by Mr. Dunn to go to St. Omer's, which she consented to do, and immediately left London for that purpose. Mr. Donn accompanied her to Dover, where IV remained, and she proceeded alone to St. Omer's. That she found her daughter Its Mg at Si. Omer's with Mr. Clay. She reproached them, and called Mr. Clay a s Wain ; when in reply he assured her, that he meant to act honoitrahly to wards the said Eliza Pappv Dunn, by getting a divorce, and then marrying her, &e. That a husband should have any doubt about the guilt of his wife, after conduct of this description, is to me perfectly incredible, and yet what line of conduct does he pursue ? It is detailed in the 6th article of the libel in these words— " That the elopement of Eliza Papps Dunn was represented by Mr. Dunn, and especially by Dorothy Ann Papps, not to have arisen from any crimina; connexion but to have been oc casioned by other circumstances. That Mr. Dunn being de ceived by such false representations slid, upon the entreaty at Dorothy Ann Papps, consent to meet his wile on their landing at Dover from France, and accordingly meet them there on the lit of November, 1815. That upon such meeting taking place, Mr. Dunn being entirt ly ignorant of the adulter ous interceurse which had taken place, W.V. induced at the ear nest entreaties of Mrs. Papps and his wife, who made the strongest protestations of imoicence and expressed great con trition for her misconduct, to receive her back again, and they returned to their house at I famcommoti," &c. Mrs. Palms WS been examined ispun this article, and states— That when she left Dover for St. Omer's, Mr. I)min said Ile would remain ut Dover until her return ; brit she did not represent to him that the elopement of Mrs. Dunn had not arisen from any criminal connexion, but had been occasioned by other circumstances —nor was it in consequen ce of a n y such representations that Air. I.tunii remained at Dover, but lie did so of his own accord, and requested the deponent to go to France alone, and if she succeeded in finding Mrs. Dunn, to return with her tee I ' at Dover.--As the boat in which they were approached the shore from the packet, she observed Mr. Dunn walking on the beach. Mrs. Dunn left the boat first and went up to her husband, and they walked away together.--Mrs. I'apps followed them in company with Major Grant, who came to England in the said vessel, and nit entering the inn met Mr. Dunn alone in the passage. On Major Grant's withdrawing, Mr. Dunn said, lam perfectly satisfied with what Eliza flits told me, mid I shall ask no ques tions; I idiom made Inc very happy...--Mrs. Papps thought it as umieressaiy as unpleasant to touch upon the subject : but she says that she did not entreat him so to receive her daugh ter hick again, for howe v er grateful she unight feel towards him for such an act, and however desitous that it should take place, she should not have thought herself" warreetell in at• 1:)8
