iVv.ii UUfUfnvottfcsainosc measures be adopted which I have recommended, c which 1 have in store for the occasion ; and which no man living, that I know of, can carry into execution so well as myselF. Before I go further in this respectful address to your majesty, I bet; leave to request your perusal of a letter which I addressed to you from the city ol New York, on the 10th October, 1819, which is eight years U. sonic months ago. The English newspapers had, at that time, just brought mc an account ol the passing of Pecs bill. I saw that the passing of that bill had been the unanimous wot k oF t lie two houses of parliament ; and I saw that it was hailed with joy by every one in the

country who wished to keep the people in a

state of misery and halt slavery. The same newspapers had brought me the

speaker's speech to your majesty, in which

speech he boasted of the passing ol this bill

I, therefore addressed a letter to your majes

ty, which I am now about to copy and insert. Your majesty will here sec your own speech

and that of the speaker, delivered r,n the me

morablc occasion. 1 had no opportunity of

knowing the opinion of any man upon the subject ; no friends and acquaintances to confer with ; no body even to talk to upon the subject; but, with nothing but the English newspapers to give me information of what had been done, I . in the course of one single day, told your majesty all that would come to pass, in consequence of that boasting measure. It is most likely that your majesty never saw what I wrote, as it is most likely that you will never sec this ; but that is not my fault ; and that I am the fittest man in your kingdom to extricate the nation from its manifold miseries and difficulties, I most firmly believe. As to any advantage, private advantage to myself, none can possibly atisc; seeing- that I would not be very rich if I could, and seeing that every part of high and fashionable life is hateful to me. Your majesty has nothing to give me that I would thank you for ; and you have no post to put me in that I would accept of, if I were net sincerely persuaded that the acceptance of it would be for the great good of my country. When your majesty shall have read atten

tively through tins letter which I am about to

republish, you will, I should thir.k, he astonished tint I should have foreseen, at that distance of time, and without any time for rcfiec (ion, all that has happened, and should have

foretold it with so much exactness None ol

your ministers saw any thing of the kind ; j

they who had high titles, ano still higher salaries were as ignorant of the matter as was the very tabic on which I was writing. Who, then, is the fit man to put things to rights ? Let me deal plainly with your majesty, and beg of you to put this question to yourself : Who is the fit man to remove the difficulties that press upon the now wretched people ol this kingdom ? Onre more reminding vour majesty that this letter was addressed to you from New Yoik moic than eight years ago. I here inset t it, humbly praying that your majesty will be pleased to read it with atten tion. Here fallows the letter, but its gicat length prevents my inserting it j Horrible P. eture The following afflicting narative will bo read with the deepest lee lings of conimisscratian nuiGUs, Nov. 21 41 The James, belonging to Mr. Cozens, arrived at Cubits, yester day, from Portugal. The master says, that a few davs ago, in the longitude of (I believe) 30 degrees, he fell in with a bring, water logged, having a living woman lashed in the main top, four living seamen in the ringing and, (oh ! horrible to relate) a dead man spread in the shrouds, on whom the unfortu natc and unhappy survivors were subsisting! The master savs that he made everv exerti on to save them, but, alas I without avail ; and that a very heavy gale, winch lasted 48 hours, caused him to leave them to the mer cy of the foaming ocean, into the bowels ol which, he has no doubt, they were consigned soon after its commencement. The master descried u Indo " on some part of her.

He came close to her secral times, and requested the poor fellows to throw themselv cs overboard, that he might be enabled to pick them up, but he colli 1 hear them say, that they were too weak ; and when they saw the impossibility ot saving them, their lamenta tions were dreadful. Cork :;:,: r. Lieutenant governor Pitcher has rccom mendtd to the legislature of New Yoik, the appointment of a Commission, with competent power to investigate the case cf William Morgan, supposed to have been murdcted in 1826; to examine witnesses, enter complaints, bind over wi'nessc and parties to ap pear at court, to conduct criminal prosecu tions, and to perform all other duties necessary to a fair and full investigation and determination of the alleged offences, respecting that affair. The New York Redactor, of Thursday, contains a list of the names of about 400 Spaniards, exiled from Mexico, who embarked at Vera Crur. from the 1st to the 18th of Feb. in fourteen vessel, eight of which sailed for New Orleans, two for X. York, three for liordeaux, and one for St. Thomas. Vcrk-.ns's Straw CcKTirr:. There was a trial ol Perkins's steam cannon at Greenwich, on the C9th January. The London Sun states that the taiget was placed in a gravel pit, at

arfdlfie firing commenced at one, and conti nued to half past two o'clock, with trifling in-

tcrmissiotn The balls were six pounders, and were discharged at about 28 to 30 per

minute, with a pressure of about 770 pounds

to the square inch. This piessurc is slated to be only one halt what the engine is capable

of, but as ihe point blank range was so short
