Rlfemin ate in manners; sensual from their cra dles; crafty, venal, and officious; natural ized to crime; outcasts of credulity ; they have seen from their infancy their court y bagnio; their very churches scenes of dai a, assassination!; their faith it form; their marriage ceremony a mere mask for the most incestuous intercourse ; gold is the God before which they prpstrate every impulse of their nature. “ A auri sacra tames! quid non mortajla pectora cogis!” the one.- indignant exclamation of their antiquity, has become the, maxim oftheir jnodern practice. No nice extreme a true Itnlton knows; But, bid him go to Hell—to hell he goes. Away with them *ny where from us; they cannot live in England, they will die in the purity of it. moral hemisphere. Mean while, during this accursed scru tiny, even while the legal blood-hounds were on the scent, the last dear stay which bound her to the world parted, the Pnn qisi Charlotte died! I will not h.rrow up a father's feelings, by dwelling on this dreadful recollection. The poet says, fist even grief finds comfort in society, and England wept with you. But, oh, find! what must have been that, hapless mother’s misery, when first the dismal tidings came upon her!—The darling •hild over whose cradle she had shed so many tears; whose lightest look was trea sured in her memory; who mid the world’s frown, still smiled upon her; the fy\r and lovely lower, which when her orb was quenched in tears, lost not its filial, its divine fidelity! It was blighted in its JWossom; its verdant stem was withered! and in a foreign land she heard it, and alone —no, no, not quite alone. The Mv! midons ofßritish hate were rsund her. when her heart’s salt ter. were blind fay her, a German Nobleman was plunder tng her letters. Bethink you, Sire, if that fair paragon of daughters lived, would England’s heart be wrung with this en quiry ? Oh ? she would have torn the dia •mods from her brow, and dashed caHi toyal mockery to the earth, and rushed Adore the people not in a Monarch’s but in nature’* majesty —a child appealing for her persecuted mother! and God, would bless the and man would hallow’ it and every little infant in the land whoa mother's warm tear upon her check, Would turn by instinct to that sacred sum mons Your daughter, in hep shroud, is set alive , Sire—her spirit is amongst us— it rose iintcmbed when her poor mother landed—it walks amid the people—it has left the angels, to protect a parent. The theme is sacred, and I will not sully »t; 1 will not recapitulate the griefs, and, Worse than grid*, the little, pitiful delibe late insults which are burning on every tongue in England.

Teasel triumphant into harbor! Sire, I am almost done; I have touched hut slightly on your Queen*, misfortunes —I have contracted the volume of her miseries to a page, and if upon that page one word offend yon, impute it to my zeal nut my intention. Accustomed all my lile to speak the simple truth, 1 offer t‘ with feurlesis hopcsty to my Sovereign. You are in a difficult—it may be in a most perilous emergency. Banish from your court the sycophants who abuse you; surround your palace with approv. ing multitudes, not with armed tnercena narics. Other crowns may be bestowed by despot, and entrenched by cannon, but, Tire throne we honor i. the people’s choice. Its bulwark is the popul.r heart, and its brightest ornament domestic virtue. — Forget not also, there is a throne which is above even the throne of England— where flatterers cannot oome-where kings are scepterless. The vows you made are written in language brighter than,, the sun, and in the course of nature, you must soon confront them; prepare the way by effacing now, each seeming slight, and fancied injury; and when you answer the last awful trumpet, be your answer this:—“ GOD, I FORGIVE,—I HOPE TO BE FORGIVEN.” But, if against al) policy, and all im munity, and all religion, you should hearken to the counsels which further countenance this unmanly persecution, then must I appeal not to you,' but to your parliament. I appeal to the sacred prelacy of England, whether the holy vows which their high church adminis tered# have been* kept towards this illus trious lady—whether the hand of man should have erased her from that page, with which it is worse than blasphemy in man to interfere—whether, as heaven’s vice gerent., they will not abjure the sordid passions of the earth, imitate the inspired humanity of their Saviour, and. Tike Him, protect a persecuted creature from the insatiate fangs of ruthless, bloody, & untir ing accusation ! I appeal t* the hereditary peerage of the realm whether they will aid this levelling denunciation of their Queen—whether they will exhibit the unseem'- spectacle of illustrious rank and royal lineage de graded for the crime of Claiming its inhe ritance ; whether they will hold a sort of civil crimination, where the accused is en titled to the mercy of an impeachment, or whether they will say with their immor tal ancestors; « We will not tamper with the laws of England ?” I appeal t* the ermined, independent j'udg ei, whether lifeto be ihade a perpetual indictment—whether two acquittals should not discountenance a third experiment whether, if any subject suitor came to their tribunal thus circumstanced, clai.iiing eith * divorce or compensation, they would grant bis suit, and I invoke from them, by the eternal maje.tj of British justice the same measure for the peasant and the prince ? I appeal to the Common* in parliament assembled representing the fathers and the husbands of the nation—l beseech them by the outraged morals of the land!—by the overshadowed dignity of the throne by the holiest and tenderest forms of re ligion !—by the honour of the army, the sanctity of the church, the safety of the state, & the character*f the country! you by the solemn virtues which consecrated their hearths! by those fond endearments of nature and of habits which attach them to their cherished wives and fmi lies, I implore their tears, their protection, knd heir pity upon the married widow and he childless mother! To those high powers and authorities! appeal with the firmest confidence in their •*onor, their integrity, and their wisdom, vlay their conduct justify my faith, and raise no blush on the cheek of our posteri ty. 1 have the honor to subscribe myself Sire.

Circumstances, over which we had no controul, hare delayed the ap pearance of his communication. Since the publication of the Governor's Massage, we have received no further in telligence from Milledgeville. It is said that considerable discontent prevails to wards the Penitentiary system under its present organization: and that it is ptob able, material changes will be made in its code of penal laws. For our own part, we have long entertained an opinion that tire penal code of Georgia could be consider ably improved, without receiving any es sential injury The Editor of the Chronicle with whom the Editor of the Savannah Republican had a “convemii .n” onthe subject of the Vin ' dietitian of Secretary Crawford, is at pre sent absent. On hi. return wc feel pretty well assured that he will satisfactorily ex plain the nature of that conversation, how ever amalgamated it may have been. The Editor of the Republican admits diat a vindication of, the kind is on hand ; but says, he “understands that Mr. Craw -1 ford has expressed a wish, that no answer should be made to any part of the book” (i e. Governor Clark’s charges) “ which relate to him.” And thereby concludes, that it is “quite problematical if the de fence is ever laid before the public.” Are we to understand from this expression, tha' the Republican means, no vindication is necessary f„. If so, “’fore God” we can only say, that Queen Caroline, alack ? has more substantial ground for complaint than 1 has been generally conceded to her. r 1 ■ ~ ~ ■—■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ - ; IViCfeg Curt tut. 1 r*~— r cottox 12}n13} ■ Do.
