J PRICE SEVEN PENCS- e* Paper & PRIST ,. 3d. s neai SHU UNCS per QuarHfr Sunday and Tuesday's Posts LONDON, MONDAY, Aug. 31 Paris papers'of Thursday an< l Friday last have been received.— Those of tils former day are chiefly filled with details of the cele- bration of St. Louis. Front Berlin, it is stated, that an eminent physician there, M. Bieske, set out on the 13th inst for Carlsbad, to attend Prince Bluchcr, who was cot; iderefl seriously ill. One of the French Journals quotes the prophesies of Madame D Krudener, stating that the year 1810 is to be rendered remark- able by the occurrences of great events. An article, dated front ( rati, 12th inst. reiterates the hope that the Congrers at Aix- la- Chapelle will take into consideration tiie measures necessary to put an end to tiie contest between Spain aud the Independ- ents in South America. Tt is added, that the sailing of the expedition from Cadiz will be delayed till tiie decision 6f the Allied Powers upon this subject is known. The same account mentions, that a few days pre- vious an Independent privateer had captur- ed a large merchant, vessel, within sight of St. Sebastian, and that two other privateers were cruizing within . sight of Bilboa It is said, that after the breaking up of the Congress, the Austrian and Prussian Minis- ters, the Prince de Metternicli an i de Hs> denberg, will proceed to Frankfort, an:) re- main there some time, in order to arrange the affairs of the Germanic Confederation. Mails have arrived from Hamburgh and Flanders; they bring no news of any i m- portance. The Duke and Duchess of Cam- Bridge arrived at Deventer on the 23d in- stant, on their way . to Hanover; and we re- gret to learn that, tiie Duchess of Clamsce has been indisposed since her arrival in that city, through the fatigue endured on the journey. which appears likely to prove of very essential utility. The pipes are made by mean's of it press, and are projected through a horizontal tube, having n core suspended in its centre, in entire cylinders, by one operation, afterwards only re- quiring to be carefully dried and burnt. They appear to come so cheap, and at the same tinio to form both so perfect and durable a drain, as to promise to supersede all ordinary modes of draining heretofore in use. They UTC made of any size or bore, and n'rostly ill a boat three feet lengths. Mr. Busk chiefly uses tliem from one inch to two aud a halfinch. bore, and with a row Mb. ter the rich. It is humiliating to be the object of pity. To he the slaveof unattainable desires is to be despicable and wretched. Independence, so essential to the virtues and pleasures of a man, independence can only be maintained by setting bounds to your desires, and owing- uo man any thing. A habit of boundless expense undermines and destroys tiie virtues eVen in a mind where they seemed to dwell. It becomes difficult and at last impossible to pay punctu- ally. When a man of sensibility thinks of the low rate at which his word must hencei'on* pass, he is little in his own eye-; but difficulties of holes lengthways in'eacJi. The pines are laid- prompt him to study deceiving- its en ail, and at with a small quantity of coarse sifted gravel, but , ..;<:..,.,* „ i. i„ ci. — without either bushes, straw, or stubhle. The holes are placed downwards, and the contigu- ous ends of each two following pipes are pro- tected hy a short collar made of a larger pipe. Thus an entire water way is formed of one uni- form bore. Into this the water, passing through the gravel, rises by the holes, free from dirt, and thence passes off almost without a possibility of obstruction. Larger pipes are used for the lends than for the common drains, and the common drains are let into the leads by means of a pur* tion ofthe smaller being luted, when green, into a portion of the leading pipe. HOP INTELLIGENCE. A Mail has arrived from Holland, w ith Papers to th- 27th instajit. The Duke and Duchess of I Lurene. arrived at Hanover on fee 17th instant, on which occasion theplace • was illuminated. The Swedish Government acidly occupied in winding aptha concerns of the late Discount Banks. The Norwegi- an Diet is discussing the subject of the Bud- get for the next 3 years. The difference between the Spanish and Portuguese Govern ent, relative to Monte Video and Oliveuza, arc on the point of be- ing adjusted. A requisition, signed by 127 Members of the House of < ' ominous, has been addressed to Mr. Tierney. requesting him to take the lead of the Opposition, instead of the late Mr. Ponsonby. It is certain that the definitive opening of • the Cosgress is fixed for the 27th of S> ep te tuber. The Ambassadors residing in Paris, hare received official notice to that effect. It is confidently said, that Mr. Baring ( who is now in Paris,) his recently conclud- ed a new tre ity witii the Minister, which modifiers the former one. The report is, that ha takes 11 millions oi rentes at, G7f. antl the remaining 11 at 77f. which, on an average, makes the aggregate of 22 millions of rentes at. 72 f. ^ Extraordinary Good Fortune.— Hazard and Co. at their Old Office, Royal Exchange, London, sold in Shares BOTH the Thirty Thousand Pound Prizes, rawn on Tuo day last; the Nos. were o8I aud 5( 312. They also sold No. 1317, a prize of Twp Thou- sand Pounds, and ae. veial minor capitals.;— Tickets and. Snares are now on sale by Ha- zard, for a New Lottery, containing Four Prizes of Thirty Thousand, <* c. by . Hazard and Go's. Agent, Mr. B. S. Chamberlain, j Bppkseller, Leicester. About 45 Pockets of New Hops have come to the Borough market this week; these are the produce oi some very forward- grounds, and the growers have been induced to pick them very early, in the hope of obtaining a high price ; in this they have succeeded, the lines' having been sold at from 17 to ' 20 guineas ; and a parcel of very middling and mouldy Canterbury Pockets at 15 guineas per cwt. These prices are by no means a criterion for the future. as when a larg- er supply arrives they must be lower. The duty is now estimated at £ 140,000, and the best yearlings are offered at £ 14 per cwt. but there are no buyers. The picking has generally com- menced at Farnbam. Odiham, and the neigh- bouring places ; the Hops are so much improv- ed within the lost three w eeks, and come dow n from the poles so remarkably line, and in such high condition, that the growth is estimated tb be equal to the large crop of 1808. Such is the demand for Mop bagging, that all the manufac- tories in Reading are fully employed day and night. The account from Kent are also very prom- ising; and the most experienced judges are de- cidedly of opinion, tliat the coming crop will be equal to two years consumption: when it is considered that nearly half the laet year's growth, the duty on which was only £( 55,000 re- mains in the bauds ofthe speculators, it is sup- posed, that the best Kents will not generally fetch more than from £ 10 to £ 1* 2 per cwt. A large dealer iu the neighbourhood of Rending off ered to contract to supply the best Kent anil country Hops at 3s per Ib. but could not get auy customers to take his offer. " The account from Worcester, August —, says, our duty is now laid at £ 15,000 iu conse- quence of the continued improvement of the Plantations. The picking; will commeuce in a few days." GHASS SEEDS.— The long continued drought has been very injurious to tho Grans Seeds in general, both in this oountry and on the Couti tieut. Iu Flanders, and also in most parts of France, the seed will be line, but the produce will not be more than a tenth of an average crop. Many of the French merchants are specu lateis in the London market, and some ship ments of Red Clover have been made to several of the ports of France. Hop- picking has generally commenced tliro'- out Kent aud Sussex :— The number of hands employed is beyond all precedeut, and the Hops are finer and laiger than ever remem- bered. last he lies to his creditors without a blush.- How desolate and woeful does his mind appear now that the fence of treth is broken down 1— Friendship is next dissolved. lie felt it once ; he t'. ow insinuates himself by means of senti- ments cud professions Which were once Sincere. He seises the moment of unsuspecting affection to ensnare the friends of his youth, borrowing money which he will never pay, and binding them for debts which they must hereafter ans- wer.— At this rr. te lie sells the virtuous pleasure of Icwing and being beloved. He swallows up the provision of aged parents and the portion of sisters and brethren. The loss of truth is follow- ed by the loss of humanity. His calls are still importunate, He proceeds to fraud, and walks On precipieces. Ingenuity, which in a better cause might have illustrated his name, is exert- ed to evade the law, to deceive the world, to cifver poverty w ith the appearance of wealth, to sow unobserved the seeds of fraud. As Bankruptcy approaches, temptations thicken. He makes a lust grasp with his expir- ing credit, and takes what he can once more from iiis friends and neighbours, from the igno- raut and unsuspicious; purchasing good sat any rate from all w ho will trust him, and selling them for immediate payment at an under value; thus he ripens all for the day of bankruptcy.— Even to a man of principle, upon whom guilt- less calamity has bronght that, evil day, it is a day of sore temptation ; ail effort of virtue is required to stop when he ought to keep nothing back, to lie impartial. To the unprincipled man, that day is the triumph of iniquity. lie surren- ders nothing which lift can secret, tramples on human laws, and takes God's name in vain.— He is partial to his ereditors. insults those w hom he has injured, antl pique* hiui- ielf on the tran- quillity with which he can bear to he called a villain. Otic would think, when the bustle of af- fairs is over, painful rcllectiou must arise on friends whom he has deceived; on relations whom he lias brought to want; on neighbours whose kindness lie baa abused: an the » a' ingrs ofthe frugal labourer which he has seised, frus- trating their hopes of temperate honest joy ; on the staff of the aged which lie has withdrawn, casting them on the cold aud scanty arm of public charity; on the portion of the poor, the widow, and the fatherless, upon which lie has laid his sacrilegious hand But bis heart is hard- ened against the relentings of humanity ; he reaps the harvest he has sow 11, aud proudly riots on the wages of iniquity." next day, and the next, and the next, and there I should have been still if I bad not been forced away; for I felt, as it were, quite a new man, when I recollected the gracipusiiess of that smile I first received in Moor- fields, and who knows, thought I, what love and fortune may haie in store for me." The prisoner appearing- to be becoming quite inspired with his subject, the magistrate inter' rupted liilti to itiquirte what lie was. Prisoner: I am a man who gains his living by carrying fruit from ihe different markets To the houses of those who purchase it. The mngietriite. nfler conferring with Mr. Ham- mond some time, during which the prisonei ctin- linued to rhapsodize on religion and love, asked hiiu whether he would promise, in ease lie should order his discharge, never - to go near Mr. Ham- mond's house again. Tho prisoner, falling on his knees, said lie perceived there was nti hope f > him, und, therefore, he would give the re- quired promise in tiie most solemn manner. He was proceeding- to frame some tretnendous oath, w hen the magistrate told him he w ould take his word, and he was accordingly discharged. LOVE MAKES A MAN. AN EXQUISITE. Stage Coach Act.— By the 50th Geo. III. eh. 48„ sect. 2, it is enacted that stage coaches shall carry only 10 outside passengers. In the 21st sect, it is further enacted, that stage coaches, carrying luggage iu certain positions, i. e. none on the top, may be licensed to carry 12 outside passengers. Now, it is a fit subject for the con- sideration of the Commissioners, that when the license is granted for 12 outsides, the coaches carry luggage on the top as if- their license was fur 10 ontsides only. Although there i# no spe- cific penalty provided for this offence, it appears to ns that Ihe, coach licensed to carry 12 out- 8id « s, putting luggage on the top, should be fined in ihe same amount, as a coach licensed fur 10 outsides w ould be if it carried 12. Oxford, August 22.— The King of Prussia has ( with the most gracious expressions of his esteem) presented to tho Rev. Dr. John Cooke, president of Corpus Christ! College, a large and splendid vase of Berlin Porcelain. It i s shaped after one of the mflst beautiful Etruscan pat- terns; it bears on ona side the portrait ol the King of Prussia, executed with the elaborate fidelity of a miniature ; and. on the other, a view of Berlin, ill the most finished style of landscape painting. Two trophies till the opposite inter- vals, one of which presents ou the shield, the name of Oxford ; the other, j » n a similar shield, the days of his- Majesty's residence at the lodg- ings of Corpus Cbristi College, in June 1814. Land Draining. - Mr. Busk, of Ponsbcurn Park, Herefordshire, has recently invented, and now extensively practises, a new mode of mak- ing'and using uarthen pipes for draining Land, A Correspondent furnishes us with thefollow- ing picture of an Exquisite, alias A Dandy in distress:— " Walking along one of the streets last week, it was my fate to follow an Exquisite— stockeii and stayed, laced and bound, collared and pil- loried, iu nil fhe fashion; so slender. so straight, and so still', tli. lt a man of reasonable strength might have tired it as a walking- stick. Thi> thing flourishing a very nice perfumed hand- kerchief, happened to let it drop— the question was then ho. v to get it up again— stoop it cculd not, and I confess I enjoyed its distress- for though for any other Female I would have rais- ed the handkerchief with alacilty, I wished to see how this creature would help itself. Then thus it was;— having eyed the handkerchief askance, something like a magpie peeping into a marrow- bone, it gently spraddled out its legs and lowering the body between them, as in a fitting posture, it brought the left hand in con- tact with the object sought. What shall we say to the association of ideas, when I assure you, that looking on this unmanly figure brought into til) mind the Knights of old, w ho when once unhorsed, could never, from the weight and stillness of their armour, hope to mount uguin!" N. B.— It is found remarkably convenient, in such a case, for the Exquisite to carry a cane or stick with a hook at the end. as lie may fish up any thin., lie unfortunately drops without break- ing his back, or exciting the pity and risibility of the spectators. THE MISERIES AND TEMPTATIONS or BEING IN DEBT. TJje following extract from a Sermon by Dr. S. Charters, Minister of Wiltan, on the text,— •• Owe no man any thing," is worthy of general publicity:— " To be out of debt is accounted a part of happiness. Debt haunts the mind ; a conversa- tion about justice troubles it; the sightof a cre- ditor fills it with confusion ; even the sanctuary not a place of refuge. The borrower is servant ... the lender. A life at another man's table is not to be accounted for a life, It is mean to Hat- Mr. Hammond, of Wood street, Chenpside, attended before the sitting Magistrate at Guild- hall, yesterday, and said he hud to claim pro- tection lor bis mother, against a man who was in custody. William Crumpton, the person alluded to, was then brought up, and entered the bar wilh the obeisance of a posture master. Mr, Ham- mond stated, that on Saturday last, " hh mother, in company with a lady ot her acquaintance, was walking across Moor- fitlds, when tt. ey perceived the prisoner watching them iu the most particu- lar manner. If they went into a shop, he wait- ed at the door till they came out; and Whenever they looked towards him he bowed and smiled. This conduct lie cyutinurd till they reached their home in Wood- street, and then stationing him- self on the opposite side of the street, he paraded backward and forwnrd the whole day, wilh his eyes constantly directed to the windows, and still hs any person appeared at them he smiled, and taking off his hat bowed to the ground. On the following day, Sunday, he was again at his posj opposite the house, and remained till dusk, behaving in the same strange manner. On the tionday lie again repeated it, and indeed every day since, with very little intermission, and lat terly his conduct had attracted the notice of the passengers, and considerable crowds of people frequently gathered about the house. Inconse- quence his mother became much alarmed: and as remonstrance had no effect oil the prisoner, they thought it rig- lit to give liiiu in charge toau officer. The prisoner being called upon for his de- fence, said, " I am a sheep without a shepherd, a poor friendless man ; but nevertheless I defy any man, to lay harm to my charge. It 13 true, I did meet the ladies as described, and one of them smiled upon 111c so graciously, that my heart was touched. It was a smile I thought which boiled me good. Cod knows I had suf- fered the frowns ofthe world long enough, and it occurred to me that this sniih- was a prelude to my future happiness. I therefore followed the ladies, who from time to time looked back, and smiled upon me. It is not to be supposed that a mau in my situation could resist this.— No; I followed them into Wood- street, where they went into a house, and I. wiih a beating heart, remained over against it the whole day, ill the hope that they would make their re ap- pearance. Night came, and 1 departed; but the vission still haunted me, and after having in vain tried to sleep. 1 put on my bestclothes. and went again to Wood- street, thinking. ' Surely something will come of it.' After wailing along time I saw a young woman, a servant in the bouse, and I asked her who the ladies were that I had seen go in there on Saturday. She repli- ed, ' It was my mistress : did you want to see her!' I answered that if she was a married wo- man I would by 110 means seek an interview, but if she w as single I should be most happy. The girl then smiled and left me, as I thought, to tell her mistress what I had said, and of course I waited till day for an answer, but none came, and I felt myself con;, trained to go again the BANKRUPTS FROM SATURDAY'S GAZETTE.

The hope of a line vintage had caused a great fall in the price of wines in tipper Germany. . It ap- pears from an official report of tlie. Commis- sioners ofthe Austrian Sinking Fund, that, 20ft millions of Redemption Bonds created in 1811, were reduced to 171 millions at. the beginning of January, 181:!. Since that time it is stated that 20 millions of Redemption Bonds- have been destroyed, so that the re- maining sum will hardly amount to T j1 mil- lions at the . next, annual settlement. This Shews Ijttw earnestly nhd successfully the Government exerts itself. it) restore tlie cre- dit'of the paper currency.

They do not, however, add niuehto our know ledge of, the general transactions of the campaign, the progress and results of whiclrha- e transpired through the medium ' of pfh ' fefetters and of India papers.

On this oc- casion Major Gordon and Captain M'Greg or Were killed; and Lieutenant Colonel M. Murray, Deputy " Adjutant General, before he could draw his sword, was desperately wounded by ihe daggers, of these perfidious miscreants. Their success, however, was shortened, as it de. erred to be. The other - gat \ s were blown yipeit by the cannon; ihe , place was instantly stormed; the garrison, consisting of 300 Arabs and others, wai ' every man put to the sword; tuul tire rebel liijus Killedar himself hanged on one oi the bastions immediately after the place fell, by order of Sir Thomas llislop.— Wlieth r he was accessary orjiot to the subsequent trea- chery of his men, his execution was a pun- ishment justly due to his rebellion. This sc vere hut just example was expected to have a salutary effect throughout the neighbour- ing districts. We arc happy to learn that , Lieutenant Colonel Murray bids fair to 1- e- tcover from his wounds. Cheetoo, it. appear had withdrawn himself from our custody and ran off, but was pursued by a division of the British army. More papers have arrived from India, but they are sot of a later date than the above. Fro, n these it appears, that shortly prior to the great battle of Maheidpoor, the Bhye ( a Princess of Holkar's family) was cruell murdered. She had been previously placed in confinement, in consequence of licr having wished to prevent a war with the, English. A Connsel w as then held by Roosliuu BeL Rooshun Khan, anil Ghuffou Khan, by whom • it was determined that she should be put to death; and she was accordingly taken to the fiver ami publicly beheaded. Several quar- rels after this took place between the differ- ent Chiefs, but the influence of Rooshun Beg pre' ailed and the battle was fought. The consequence, however, w as fatal to him. The battalions which he commanded w ere cut up and dispersed, himself wounded, and his influence annihilated.

There al e some who attribute the. present fall in the funds to the injudicious mode devised by the Chan- cellor of t he Exchequer, for raising money for the service for the present year by ail open loan, instead of contracting for the en- tire sum, as her; tofore, with individuals.—- The anticipation of a loan had, they observe* induced the capitalists to sell out, for the purpose of meeting it.— This operailon loWcreil the funds iu the first instance; and the capitalists, being afterwards disappointed, did not purchase iii the British fluids, but transferred their money to the Continent. It is understood on ' Change that the Chan- cellor ofthe lA'chequer has already paid into the Bank £ 2,000,000 out of the £ 0,000,000 due at tiic end of the year. SR.

Leicester Journal, and Midland bounties General Advertiser.- THE PUBLIC FUNDS. . Tlie rapid fall of tlie public funds, within ( lie last few days-, lias excited considerable surprize and some alarm amongst the inonieil interest, and amongst all whoso speculations or whose prosperity depend on the continuance of gene- rr. l tranquillity. The confident anticipations of the Chancellor of tbe Exchequer that the 3 per cents, would speedily attain to 90, are so far from being realized that they have experienced a fall, since that period, of7 or 8 per cent, in a period of profound peace! An cventso uncom- mon Cannot hut give rise to various and per- plexing conjectures, and in such a case it is usual to recOr, in the tirst place, to tho state of Our foreign relations. Happily on this important point, our apprehensions have been, in a considerable degree, set at rest. The leading government jiaper, distinguished at once for its zeal and its discretion i^ a tlie cause of administration, has • examined tbe subject in detail, and after exhi- biting in succession, the views and policy Of all the great foreign powers, including Ourselves, pronounces, iu a tone of official authority, that the prospects aiid indications of a permanent peace, were never more satisfactory. The fti'- p. uments on which this consolatory assertion is founded, are sufficiently respectable; but iu such A case the authority is far better than the argu- ment. Contrary to Johnson's apothegm, when the Courier specks authoritatively, we rely much more on what it says than on what it proves.— If the Courier is of that opinion, Ministers are also of that opinion, and the prophecies of per- sons in power, like those of the ancient ora- cles. are generally ( he- cause of their own com- . pletioa. If tiie writer above alluded to is to be believ- ' cd, ambition has beenutterly discarded from • the cabinet of the great European Powers, all projects of aggression or conquest hats befin, - for ever, renounced, and the golden age has al- * ready recommenced. In this , happy state of thjogs, there surely Can be no justification for , the enormous aud burthensome military estnb- lidiluents, still kepLup by the principal allied Sovereigns. If the British Ministers . sincerely entertain the sentiments thus conveyed to the public in a demi- official form, the least we can expect is, that Lord Custlereagh - will, at the meeting at Ai. x- la Chap'elle, make a proposition for reducing the armies of the- different powers, fti. tbc level of such establishments as maybe indispensable for aiding the Civil Authorities in maintaining internal tranquillity. Oil the subjectof America, the Courier is also remarkably moderate,. and this pacific tone is the morevdtisfactory, as the style of that paper, by its natural propensities habitually inclined to war, was alarmingly hostile, on the first news . ofthe affair of Pensacdlu and the proceedings . of ftein'Jackson. This altered tone affords a pieasi. ig presumption that it has received instruc- tions from the right quarteV. The fall of the Stocks, therefore, not being at- tributable to any thing in the state of our fo- reign relations, is endeavoured to be explained, Iry domestic circumstances ; but the causes pro- duced under this head, are, iu our opinion, very inadequate to the effect. Our readers are aware .- that the Bank of England accommodated tiie Government with two successiv e loans, amount- ring together to nine millions. This loan theGo- vernment wishes to repay in Exchequer Bills, hut the Bank wishes to receive It in specie, in order that it may be prepared for tiie resump- tion of cash payments. T he Government refu- sing this, the Bank, it is said, has narrowed its circulation, and the scarcity of notes or circula- ting medium thence arising, has occasioned the fall of the stocks. Such is Ihe conjecture of an intelligent morning paper, but few persons, we apprehend, will think it quite satisfactory. it is lamentable to observe how much tile so- ciety of this country is dividing into ov ergrown monopolists of capital on the one hand, and dangerous combinations of physical force oil the • other. Bctwecu Ihe two, the valuable mass of the population is pinched and oppressed, and that desirable medium, that bulk of middleclass, w hicb should fill llie land w ith industry, and eu- joy comforts in return, is being limited to u nar- row strip, bounded by excessive wealth in a few an the one side, and excessive misery in a mul- titude of paupers on the other. . STATE OP PARTIES. say they retain tlie unbiassed exercise of their own judgment, that there is almost as great a sacrifice of conscience iu always agreeing Willi an opposition, as in constsntly supporting a mi- nister. It is the interest and the never- failing practice of the government to encourage such notions; the niinisterhas no better friends than those who rail at all party as an interested and factious league of plaoe- hunters or zealots— nor any more useful resources than in the num- ber Of well- meaning and not very clear sighted persons, who, from tender consciences, or per- haps from the vanity of always thinking foHhetu- selves, keep aloof fro in party connexion as un- principled and degrading. " Another charge against party arises out of the coalitions which, from time to time, are framed between men of different political con- nexions, who have once been opposed to ea<- h other. NTn more fruitful source can be assign- ed ofthe prejudices which Jiavebeen conceived against various parties, and ofthe general dis- position, w hich for along while has existed, to question the purity of public men generally. Tbe list Number of the Edinburgh Review, contains an essay, displaying great f. r'. ce and brilliancy of argument, on the present state of Parties. Its tendency is to shevV tlie necessity for public men to act in a BODY ; and how ho- nestly and rationally a public man may with- hold his support systematically. from one class of statesmen. and co- operate generally with ano- ther. It is observed, that " Man* remarkable circumstances concur in rendering the present moment peculiarly adnpt- '-- ed- t< i a calm aud impartial survey of the state - of political parties in this country. Everyone may now be satisfied; that popular confidence can only be gained by such a line of conduclas tjlearly shews that the - true interests of the na- tion are its ruling object. Tlie scrambles for power , amon{ a. few great families are no longer to be dignified with the title of party differences; whoever would attain pre- eminence, must take the Iftgh ground of public principle; the voice of the community must be heard— its sense eon- suited; and statesmen must mingle with their party discussions a perpetual appeal to the un- deniable interests and strong feelings of a well informed and inquiring nation. The events of the last tv. o or three mouths, but especially the evidence of sound popular sentiments, evinced during the late General Election, may be stated as a most decisive reason lor pausing at the present moment, to observe and to note the si- tuation Of the country, with reference to the parties that divide its inhabitants. But us no subject has beta productive of mote erroneous and ignoraut assertion than tbe use aud object of pnrty connections, we shall first endeavor to clear the way, by stating the true principle of such unions. " When a number of men associate them- selves from a general agreement in political Opinion, and pursue ill one body a certain course • of measures, it is extremely common to hear them accused of various crimes. Iftheyattack the government oftheday. they arc by its friends stigmatised as disloyal, by aid of the establish- ed sophism which confounds the sovereign with his counsellors, the constitution with the minis- try of the day. By the people, they are apt to be regarded as prosecuting tlicir own interests; and only desirous of changing the present ser- vants ofthe erown, to take their places. Even the more thinking classes of the community, un- , connected with government, are apt to see some- thing factious in a systematic opposition ; it seems as_ if men, and. not measures, were the /> criterion of praise or blame; as if the same per- soiisiyould approvetfcpsiinie propositions which they now, most loudly condemn, were ; hey but h. ido by their ow n chiefs. The common ques- tion is. Are'lie Ministers, always in the wrong? — And an inference is thus drawn by those who — As superficial observers cannot comprehend the principle which unites individuals together iu political co- operation, or conceive howaman may, to pi'omot" a just cause, ' overlook slighter differences of opinion, And act with thoso of whom be does not in every particular approve — so Ihe same reasoners find it still satire diffi- cult to understand on wfi'at gfounds persons, long invcterately hostile, can unite . when cir- cumstances are changed: and as party Union is termed combination for power or place, and party hostility a factious scramble—- BO a coali- tion of parties is deemed a prolligate abandon- ment of public principle for private advantage. The two most celebrated measures of this kind, in more modern times, have given rise to an in- finity of such feelings in the public mind. " TIHI lasl cause we shall here state, ofthe odium that has lately fallen upon party, is the conduct almost inevitably pursued by every op- position, upon its accession to power, and the disappointment arising from thence, both to tbe public and to individuals. How sparing soever an opposition may lie of their promises to the country, far more will always be expected of thein than any man can perform. Whatever has been done amiss by the former ministry, they are called Upon to rectify, and instantly— for delay is held iqualto non- performance. At all events, they are not suffered to continue for one mo- ment in tbe steps which they had blamed their predecessors for pursuing ; although it may be perfectly consistent in those who inveighed a- gainst a measure, lo persevere iu it, when once adopted, as the lesser evil; or, if resolved upon abandoning it, to do this cautiously and slow- ly. Tho heedless multitude however cry out, that tbe new men are just as bad asthe old, aud would always buvp acted like them, had they been iu their place. And hence a new topic for those who clamour is, that all public men arc alike. In the mean time, the impossibility of satisfying the private claims ot those who fol- low the party for the sake of its patronage, fills the ranks of the discontented ; and ( he loss of power having disarmed the, popular indignation against ( he fallen ministry, public censure is almost exclusively reserved for their successors. These, too, are for a long lime regarded rather, as an opposition inexpertly converted into mi- nisters, than asregular placemen ; and the dis- likes excited by whatever they do, or leave un- done, tinge tliepublic ojiinionsrespectingoppo- silion parties in general. These appear to us the principal sources of the unpopularity into w hich regular party has fallen. " Wc are very far indeed, from denying, that there have been, in ail times, abuses of the prin- ciple which justifies'parly' union— or that most parties in their turnjiavc had errors and crimes to answer for, which alb id some colour to the charges indiscriminately made against them all. We may even admit, that unless strictly watched, & conl rolled by the check of public, opinion, party- association is apt to degenerate and produce serious evifs, by its perversion to purposes of a private nature. Nevertheless, we conceive, that the plan of acting in parties has its foundation in the necessity of the case, and llmt . it affords the only safe and practical means of carrying on the business of a free country— not. as ignorant men imagine,, by a collusion between different juntos of men, but by a mode at once peaceful and effectual, of giving their full influence to different principles. Let us then attend to the ground upon w hich alone such associations are to be defended. " As long as men are ambitious, corrupt and servile, every Sovereign will attempt to extend his power; he will easily find instruments wherewithal to carry on this bad work; if un- resisted; his encroachments upon public liberty wilf go on with an accelerated swiftness, each step affording new facilities formakinganotlier stride, and furnishing additional confidence to attempt it It requires no argument, then, to shew the absolute necessity of strictly watching every administration at all times. But if any given set of ministers has adopted a system of government grossly erroneous, or corrupt, or unconstitutional, a necessity arises for taking every lawful means to displace them, and pre- vent further mischief. The question is, how can they be most effectually w atched in the one case, and opposed in the other? Now, we must con- sider the means of supporting themselves. wJiicb all ministers have, and the power which is thus afforded then* of eluding ihe vigilanceand over- coming the resistance of insulated individuals. Every ministry is necessarily a league— a par- ty— a party too, regularly marshalled, and kept together in one solid body— us much mote com- pact than the best organized opposition, as a standing army is better discipliued thao a corps of volunteers. The ministers have all tbe force and all the iiiilucnce ofthe Government at their disposal. The fears of some, the hopes of others, range around them a vast luSst Of persons w hom they can dispose of at pleasure, without ever consulting their wishes. It is enough for those multitudes that the gov eminent vi ills anything; and straightway they feel themselves hound strenuously to promote it. Add to this, the strength derived from the good will, and often ( he co- operation, of a great and even respecta- ble class, who give themselves lit lie trouble to inquire into the merits of measures, but are re- solved to believe, that whatever the minister for the time being snvs or docs, is right. " When persons of little reflection or no candour cry out against an opposition as fac- tious ; inveigh against party spirit, and ask how any honest man can give up tbe guidance of bis coiif. cience. and follow implicitly the steps of his political leaders,— how comes it that they forget the far more implicit obedience rendered to the minister of the day by the whole host of govern- ment dependants ?— They are indeed knit to- gether by an insuperable bond— their common interest; theirs is an unscrupulous, an uninquir- ing, « n unthinking compliance with all that their qliief prescribes. If the charges of unconscien- tious agreement in opinion, or blind submission to other men, applies to any class, it clearly is I to those whom the power of the government commands, or its pntronagc influences. If the' opposers pf the government must be accuscd ot violence and rancour, its supporters are equally open to the charge of tyranny and persecution. Nor will it avail the enemies of all party, to say that they blame both sides, and would have no regular discipline in either. By the nalure of the ease, there must be a party, regularly disci- plined and paid, for the minister of the' day.— 11 As long as self- interest has any influence over men's minds at least, this party, must, of ne- cessity, exist at all ti'iics. The question there- fore is not, whether we shall do without any such Anions ; but whether We shall suffer them all to be on one side, and shall not have recourse to something of tbe same system and combination for watching & for opposing tbe ministerial par- ty. which that party always uses- for retaining its power, and almost always for augmenting the power Of tlie Crow n, aud increasing the bur- thens oi'the people. " Now, it seems very manifest, that, without tf me systematic co- operation, no ministry can be either watched or opposed effectually. The argument applies, iu different degrees, both to the vigilance w hich all administrations require, and the opposition which should be given to councils radically vicious ; and as itis of course strongest in the latter case, we shall principally direct our attention to that. Compare, then, the chance of success which a ministry and an op- position, composed of insulated individuals, would have. AH the adherents of the minister act in concert, und each sacrifices his own opi- nions sind view's, "- ft here they clash with thecoin- moti object of defending Iheir leader's place. If he propfrtfcs fi measure which many of them dis- approve, stilf they support liim; because the loss of it would endanger his official existance. But if bis opponents only attack him when they are all agreed upon the measure, they must, for the same reason, make the attack in the manner which all approve ; thatis to say, only those who agree in disapproving of the measurecan join tbe attack ; and of those, only such as concurin tbe way of expressing their dissent. Itis not mere- ly that one man may 1 e iulluenced by one rea- son, and another by another, to join intlie same vote:— this would lead to no material defalca- tion of strength. But there will be found very few votes, in vv hich all are precisely agreed ; and if each man must follow liis ovrfn judgment for conscience sake, even a small diflcrence of sen- timent must prevent a concurrence in the vote. Thus it will happen, that the whole body who disapprove of the measures of government as a system, and conscientiously deem a change ne- cessary, are prevented from ever expressing that opinion at all. There might even be a clear majority against the government, and yet no change could be effected. " Let the nature of the co- operation which party requires be only considered fairly, and it . will appear in no respect to involve sacrifices . beyond what the mostscrupulous ought to make. ' V number of individuals agri e in holding many strong opinions upon the most important sub- jects. Unless there exists this general commu- nion of sentiments the party ought not to be formed. They all agree in holding a change of system necessary forthe salvation of the count- ry : for if they only unite to bring about a change of men, vv c admit tbe conflict to be a merescram- ble for power. Agreeing generally,& on import- mt points, each man has differences of opinion as to the details : but Ihe corner- stone of tbe w hole fabric being- the unanimous concurrence in thinking, that a change of system is necessary,& the adoption of some one line of opposition be- ing essential to accomplish this end, itis no sa- crifice, of individual opinions, but only acting in conformity with the most important opinion, to sacrifice the less important; and to act other- wise, would in reality be a much greater sacri- fice of individual opinion. In truth, til is is th^ way in wheli every man carries on his private affairs; and if is precisely, the principle on which all communities depend lor their existence. The The power of the majority to bind tbe whole rests upon no other foundation. Does any man deem it unconscientious to submit to a bad law after it has passed; though he resisted its intro duction? Cnless, in extreme cases, when all government is at an end, it is the duty of every man to yield obedience, and to co- operate in carrying into effect measures w hicb, w bile under discussion, he had opposed, because a still greater evil would ensue from bis continued op- position, namely, the dissolution, of society. So, in a party, it is a man's duty to co- operate with tfie whole body after bis peculiar views have been overruled, because otherwise a still great- er evil would result, namely, the establishment for ever of the bad system which all agree ought to be changed. Extreme cases may arisehere, as in the community at large ; questions of pa- ramount importance may interfere, upon w hich the differences of opinion aic too great to be overcome? and a total or partial destruction of the union may lie the result. But, inordinary eases, the yielding iu small matters for the » ake of greater ones, is not only no abandonment of private opinion, but is the only way in which that opinion can be effectually pronounced and puf-' sued." been at my house. My niece was delivered of a child a month before last Whitsuntide. I saw- defendant after that at my own honse; he came and told me that he would not have her. 1 ask- ed Iii in if he had got any thing to lay to her charge? He said he had not, and he should lie very much affronted if any body else said any thing against her. I have known my niece from her inl'aficy, and up to the time of this unfortu- nate connexion, I never heard ot any thing im- proper of her; I have known of no other suitor ; her character has been unimpeached.

She and her mother are in ( he habit of Visiting the respectable fa- milies in the neighbourhood of Burton; ( bey have been in the habit of visiting at the defend- ant's, and the defendant in return has frequent- ly visited the plaintiff. I was also acquainted with defendant's sister, Mrs. Stackhouse; she and the plaintiff have. been very intimate. Af- ter Mrs. Stuckhouse's marriage, tbe plaintiff went to visit her at Gigglewortb. I have seen the plaintiff and defendant together. The de- fendant was received at plaintiff ' s house os her intended husbuud f\) r n-. uny years; she was re ceived in a friendly manner at the houses of his friends. The neighbours knew they were par- ticularly attached to each other, She never knew ofthe friends of either, party expressing any objection. I . recollect my husband and de- fendant coining from the Town Meeting on the ' 29th of November last, when the defendant ask- ed my husband to give Miss Settle aw ay, for he intended to make her his wife— and. inv husband said certainly. At this time the parties were perfectly sober. I recollect the defendant com- ing after that; lie then said he come to let us know that he did not intend to many her. My husband asked his reason, and if be had any thing to say against her character ; he answ ered he had not, and should be very much hurt if any body else said any thing against her. During ihe number of years that I have been acquaint- ed with the plaintiff, I never heard any thing but prudence attached to her name. Robert Hon- s& n said lie was an innkeeper at MARKET HERALD.

I said, " how have you come about this Miss Settle, when I was joung, 1 could never have come about them till I promised something ?" he said " I promised her marriage, but I hope you will not tell."

I met defendant on 29th November last ; a conversation then took place about my . uiecc; he asked me if I would slant! father, and give her away. I told him I would, but I wished to know who she was, he said Sally Settle; and I said with all my heart. About 5 or 6 minutes after that he got up, and said I am sorry you have ' disap- pointed uie from going lo see my wife; he then went away ; he said I had kept him too long*— I remember his being put in possession of his estate; from his E- noie he got half the estate, to- gether with the house, goods, and stock, and bis father a ad he then lived upon it I think it is- worth betvyeen i 500and £ 600 a year. If it was . sold I. think i; would be for £ lS, 000or £' 20,000 im'l. epenOtnt of the stock. I think the stock would be worth £ 800.- The ' defendant Is ma » ried; he married since November.

Its detersive power i- s just sufficient to annihilate those destructive and corroding particles which ge- uerallv adhere to the gums and in the interstices of the teeth ; healing soreness iq the former, and pro- moting a new enamel of pearly vhlteness, ( where it has been injured or corroded) on the hitter. It likewise imparts a firmness and beautiful reduess to the gurus ; to the breath the most delectable svveet- nes~; and if used constantly, as directed, will pre- serve the teeth in a sound state even to old age.
