hensive inscription:—‘ This cup is pre- 
sented to John Thelwall, of Brixtott, esq: 
by his. fellow-parishioners, as a tribute in 
acknowledgment of his transcendant. ta- 
jents, and in approbation of his great ser- 
vices in the cause of civil liberty. Seeing 
that, although harassed by persecution, 
and menaced with death, neither deluded 
by the smiles, nor dismayed by the frowns 
of power, he has evinced a rare political 
consistency throughout a long life, worthy 
the imitation of posterity.“—We cheer- 
fully add our testimony to these just sen- 
timents. 
— 18.—A ridiculous naked statue of 
Achilles was this day set up in Hyde Park, 
by some sycophantic court ladies, to com- 
memorate the successes of the late ruinous 
wars against European liberty. It seems 
the people of this deveted country have 
not yet suffered enough! 
— 20.—This evening Dr. Percy Josce- 
lyn, the Right Rev. Bishop of Clogher, 
was discovered in an infamous and cri- 
minal connexion with a soldier, in the 
back parlour of a public-house, in St. 
Alban’s-place. He was admitted to bail 
for 10001. by Dyer the magistrate ; but his 
confederate, the soldier, was committed. 
The newspapers in general suppressed 
the information, but it was detailed in 
the Observer, and more fully in the Stutes- 
man. It may be regarded as a species of 
morai earthquake, for a natural one could 
not have created a greater sensation. Hor- 
rible, too, it is to relate, that a man in 
Ireland was lately publicly whipped, with 
special severity, for charging the same 
offence on this Bishop. 
Same day.—The premises of Messrs. 
Astor and Co. musical-instrument makers, 
in Tottenham-street, were entirely con- 
sumed by fire. 
— 22.—The proprietor of Blackwood’s 
Magazine was this day convicted, at 
Edinburgh, of publishing a series of libels 
on Professor Leslie.— Damages 1001. 
— 94.—In a Court of Common Conn- 
cil held this day, Mr. Alderman Waithman 
brought up a report from the General 
Purposes Committee, upon the proceed- 
ings in Parliament on the Orphan's Fund 
Bill, and recommending a petition to the 
House of Lords against the same. ‘The 
motion was agreed to, and a vote of thanks 
presented to Mr. Ald. Waithman for his 
conduct and perseverance in his enquiries 
into the state of the Fund, &c. 
— 25.—In the House of Commons, this 
day, Mr. Hume brought forward a series 
of able resolutions respecting the Sinking 
Fund, and, after an elaborate speech, in 
which he maintained “that public credit 
would have been much more substantially 
kept up by confining the system to loans, 
and abandoning the Sinking Fund altoge- 
ther,” he moved his first resolution, which 
was negatived.
