Loxdale would be kind'enough to a' « fi as chairman On the motion of the Rev. JOHN LANGLBY, setMUid- ril, by the Kev. THOMAS WEAVRR, Joseph Loxdale, Esq, was then u- nauuuously requested to take the chair."--- Mr. Loxdale having acceded to the request, The Rev. Archdeacon CORBETT addressed the Chairman as follows,;—. U SIR— It. is now between thirty and forty years since I first entered within these walls, and it was for the purpose of proposing and'supporting Peti- tions to Parliament for the Abolition of the African Slave Trade. And, Sir, it was not from ignorance Of, or inattention to, the nature of our Colonial Slavery, that we. confined ourselves at that time to t ie intercourse between Africa. audth6 West Indies; but we did hope and expect, that if that intercourse was put a stop to, it would naturally lead to such an improvement in the situation of those unhappy persons already in bondage — that no further inter- fere, nee in their behalf would be necessary on the ; part of Great Britain. Sir, after an anxious strug- 1 gle of somewhat near twenty years' existence ; after- hearing otir object ridiculed by 6om. e as iinjwactic- a'ble, and denounced by others as injurious to our commerce, an overwhelming majority in Parliament at length pronounced the traffic illegal : and how- ever difficult it has been to repress entirely this iniquitous traffic,- not only none of the ruinous con- sequences that were so loudly predicted have ever yet been proved,, but, I believe, many of those who originally opposed the measure, have long since concurred with_ the supporters of it, in thinking it was, required no less by sound policy than by impe- rious justice. No doubt the discussions that then took place, and the facts then brought in evidence, have led the West Indian Proprietors, too many of whom, I am sorry to say,: are absent Proprietors^ to enquire more minutely into the condition of their slaves, and not only to wish, bat to at empt the amelioration of that condition, and some splendid instances may be pointed out, where signal redress has been afforded ; but it cannot b^ concealed, as a general position, that in the hopes, so fondly enter- tained, we have been miserably disappointed. But, Sir, I do not come here to arraign the conduct of any set of men, much bss that of any individual. I know well the prejudices to which our nature is liable, aud that the natural inconsistency of the hunian mind may be so aggravated by false educa- tion, or bv local impressions, that those who in some situations, or upon some occasions, are liberal and kind, shall, in othe; be uot only hard hearted, but apparently insensible to the extent of their own cruelty, I came many years ago in a passage- boat from Liverpool to Chester. Some of the passengers were taking refreshment, when one of them, point-, iug to au emaciated old woman in a distant part of the vessel , observed'that he 4 thought a glass of ale would do hergo. od.' Another of the company im- mediately said, 4 I think she. wants something to eat, as well as something- to. drink ; and if you will cut a slice of the batn I will put it on a piece of bread and take it to her, together with a, glass of the liquor we are drinking.' Sir, I was so pleased with the alacrity with which this was done, that I enquired who the individual was, and was told he . was the captain of a Liverpool slave ship. Now whateyer surprise we may feel at such promptbene- voletice in one wh, o must have been familiar with the hot.: rors of the Middle Passage — of one who must have contributed more or less to those deep depriv- ations and to those keen sufferings which the un- fortunate Africans undergo in their transportation from their native laud to that of their captivity — " that surprise will abate if we look at other incon- sistencies that may he pointed out. For instance, in that very moral book, the Complete Angler, by . Mr. Isaac Walton, the amiable author feigns a dia- logue between a hunter, a hawker, and a fisher ; ' and he makes the latter reproach tlie two former for the cruelty of their, diversion, and then thinks - he clears himself by saying, * I am not of a cruel disposition, for I delight only in'taking of fish; aiid that he does not stand upon any distinction that may be taken between the sufferings of animal, pursued bv a bound or a falcon, and a fish " taken with a net or bv an artificial fly, lie proceeds furtlrer oh to treat of fidving with live baits, a device that, no necessity can ever justifyand not only this, but he instructs his pupil how to introduce the hook into the body of the tortured niit> now to avoi ' the vital parts ; and then comes this extraordinary 1 expression, 4 You must use hiin as a friend, that he may live the longer. v . Now if a person of Mr. Isaac Walvoii's well known piety " and benevolence could from prepossession foi- a favourite diversion only, he led to a conclusion not only so illogical, but, I wi" add, detestable, who shall say to what extent self. • deception may be engendered as to the object befort ' hs, by means of West Indian connection ; and how ever we wish to combat the system of Slavery^ it uot be supposed that we wish to represent the bought or sold by man being is thus in the pow er of another, what security can the inferi » > tv party have for the enjoyment of any oiie of those rights and privileges which are the inheritance of our common nature? But I may be told that the slaves aw iii a better stale than they were; that,, for instance, they are no longer to be looked i? pon as mere chattels, incapable of entering into the marring* contract. But tho' the Priest is now permitted to say, in the solemn language of our Church, t; tliose w hom GOD hath joined together let hot innn put asunder,' how delusive must this union prpve, where 1 man is bought and sold by man ; V for there the ties of husband and wife, of patent and children, are 4 put asunder by man,* so often as the master, froni necessity or choice, sells different members, of the same family to different and distant situations. But it will be said further, fiat there not only die la# sfor the protection of th slaves, but that an instance may be pointed out where a master has suffered capitally for the tnurde of a slave through excess, o* punishment. This a least shews, the extent to which the power of th master m iy be carried ; and such instances ca convey little v arning whilst the evidence of a negro is inadmissible in a court of justice. The white dri ver has only to see there is no other white person present, and then what restraint is there upon his Conduct from the fear of being called lo acco. int ? or say another white person is present, how seldom will it happen, in a society necessarily constituted as that of the West Indies, is, that one white persor shall become Hie accuser of another. But it vvii be said further j, that it is' the interest of the mast e to preserve the life and health of liis slave. Alas Sir, if we were all disposed to follow our true in terest what occasion'would there be for the restric tions of law ?: But are there no instances in thi country where, thro' avarice or poverty, those horses are sacrificed that should have been made the maintenance of'their owner ? And has not th legislature thought fit to pass a recent law for the projection o animals from- the cruelty of their mas ters ? And if this is the case between man au dumb animals in England, how much more likel is punishment to become excessive when the cries or retorts of the person punished, are so much more capable of inflaming the ang « r of the person by whom that punishment is; administered. And i will riot he denied that the negroes are driven t the Plantations by the sound of tlie whip, and tin their exertions there are stimulated by the same severe instrument. But, Sir,, I may be told la* tl be this as it may, it is improper to agitate th subject, lest the slave should become discontented But. is it easy to add to the discontent of those who are taken by force from their own country, and compelled to hard labour in a foreign clime, w ithout the gratification o- f reward or the hope of redemption? They must always have ihe dis- position, as they have the moral right, to shake off chains so unjustly imposed ; and though prudence may iu general conceal this circumstance, yet the discontent is always in existence,. and therefore the cry of danger from- that discontent may be raised, without much impeachment of veracity, sooi'tenas the Planters shall think fit to resort to that cry. But, Sir, that, their discontent should be affected by discussion in England, seems very unlikely, from the limited knowledge the slaves have of our language : and again what opportunity have they of purchasing olir pamphlets or our newspapers ? or what ability have they to read them, if they had them in their hands? But if it is thought possible that the debates of the British Parliament, are thus known, then. we must say it is probable that the debates of the Colonial Assemblies ave at least equally known, and then comes this plain question, which is most likely to foster discontent? the umour of Plans. devised in England for the benefit these poor slaves, on the. opposition made by the authorities in the Islands, to the introduction of those plans? Vtfe have indeed heard lately, of niischief done in the colony of Demerara, by the rculation of English ideas, but how do these reports turn out?" The Archdeacon then read a paragraph rrom the New Times newspaper; stating flow " gratifying' it was to them, as members of the Established Church, to see that Mr. Austin, Minister of the English. Church in Georg'e Town, arid Chaplain of the Factory, had stood forward in defence of Mr. Smith, though previously a sirang- er to him: and that the following extract of a letter from that excellent clergyman was more conclusive to their minds than all the evidence that could be raked together hy all the planters in petnerera. 4 I feel no hesitation iu declaring, from the intimate know- ledge which my most anxious enquiries have obtained, that in the late. scourge which the hand of an All- wise Creator has inflicted on this ill- fated country, nothing but those religions impressions which, under Providence, Mr. Smith has been instrumental in fixing, frothing'• hut those principles ftlie Gospel of Peace which lie has been prnclaim- ng,. could have prevented a dreadful effusion of iuman blood here, and saved th'e lives of those very persons who are now ( I shudder to write it) seeking ... . There is no persotr tnore unvyilling^ b agitate the public mind than ui\ self. T^ ere is n^ pne jo wboni n attendance at public meetings is1 irjcsoin^. » % nt w hen we are told the veVy iuiproper receptiota Lord Bat. hurst's letter has met wlth^ ri .^ onje of the West Indian Islands ; and when we observe the ten-' dency of the Petition published by . West Indian merchants in this conntry is to induce5 Ministers to abandon- that great act of justice and expiation which they contemplate, it is. a duty due to those Ministers and to the House of Commons, to express the gratification - that was so generally felt at the resolutions moved hy . Mr. Canning, . jand unani- mously adopted,, in the. last Session ofr Parliament. " know of no one who wishes this business proceeded iy but with all the caution so. essential to the well- In ing of the slave as well as his master, But w: hilst we leave the dettnU of this momentous question to the wisdom of the Legislature, it - is but right that they should know, and I believe they will know, tl at the people of this country are. one with them in principle upon, this occasion— and that they are illing- to abide the event of that principle." — i heers. J The Rev. THOMAS ORWELL said— 44 SIR— 1 have great pleasure in rising to second the motion which has been made by the Venerable Archdeacon Corbett. I cong i tit u I at the li^ eet i n g on that Gentleuinn'suttendarice here to. day : t was indeed prepared to expect, that we sliquid be favoured: no cause, which has for its Object tlvie improvement of his fellow creatures, eyer wanted his countenance and support; and to this, in par- ticular, I knoyv his attention has been long and anxiously directed. Permit me, Sir, io. offer a few observations before I sit down., . When the object of our meeting* is considered, it should seem to be carcely necessary to defend our conduct; hut, Sir, it lias been whispered, and loudly too, that we are gi ating a delicate question very unnecessarily that we are stepping beyond the line of . our duty and only impeding the views of Parliament . I can not think that si; ch is the case, or that such will be the result of these meetings. It cannot surely be. that the gratitude of the people will be unacceptable to Parliiin. ent, or that a know ledge of their kindred sentiments on this great question will have the efft ct of disturbing their deliberations.' No doubt, Sir, there is much diversity of opinion on this sub- ject; we presume not to judge those who differ from us ;•.' we give them credit for sincerity ; and air we . isk is, that they would concede the - same to us. Bur can it be, Sir, that apology is ever required for coming forward in the cause of humanity and justice ? Englishmen, are not wouf to- stand by and see these principles invaded without interfering!. Cheers./- If we have, iri this case,, so long stoofl by, it must be, that we have befit deceived j that the present evils of the system' or* Indian slavery have been in great nieasrire concealed from s j and such I believe to be the fact. , We flattered oursel ves that a mitigation at least of the rigour of Negro bondage would have followed the Act for the Abolition of tlie Slave Trade. "' It was conjectured, also, and naturally enough, that self- interest would induce the Planter to consult the welfare of his slave. There was moreover an appearance of im- provement in some of oiir Colonies,: , Tbese things tmposed upon us. and lulled our suspicions asleep. But now, Sir, tl. nt our attention Is again strongly called to the subject ; now that we have discovered the deception, and are convinced by the. clearest evidence that the system still continues, generally speaking, in allits'former horrors— I do think, Sir, we can no longer stand by unconcerned, nor refuse, without a portion of' guilt, to etriploy pur qtmosf efforts, as individuals, and as a coinmuriity, to ex- tenuate at least the evils which prevail. Ignorance will no longer excuse us ; and it has beeu well observed, 4 He who allows opp? ession, shares the crime.' {'" heersj. ' 4' But, Sir, it is also said that this is a party measure. 1 confess, I hardly k'tow' what the ex- pression, so used, means. Let it be recollected, Sir, that the Resolutions, on which our Petition is founded^ were brought forward by^ his ^ Majesty's Ministers. I have never professed rtr Consirlered myself a party man ; but if a desire to support, not to embarrass Government— if a wislito strengthen,." not to weaken the hands of Ministers— if sin attempt to encourage them to proceed iu vindicating the rights of hu inanity and the claims of justice— be marks of a party man— then, Sir, 1 am a party trial), and I am proud of the appellation.— f; Cheers. J: I am visionary, Sir, no enthusiast in this or any other use. 1 would blame, as loudly as any man, any tampering, any unauthorized interference with the Slave, ( and I rejoice to hear that the conduct of a Missionary in a distant Settlement, will - adinit of a construction different from that which has been put upon it); but I do feel, and strongly too, that it respect to the negro population of ihe West. Indie we have much to answer for— a long arrear o injustice to do away.—( Cheers.) And What is i that we now ask?— gradual emancipation only There may be danyer iu any other ; ' the. minds of the- slaves must be prepared ; the duties, w'liich thei" new situation would require of them, pointed out and the aid of religion called in to soften those vindictive feelings, which they are said ( how truly confirm them if they are wavering, nay, to shame them if, which 1 will not anticipate, they are insincere. ( Cheers.) It would be a waste of time ; nav, I think, it would be harsh and improper to cpniehere to load the West India Proprietors with ei'targes of cruelty and misconduct, the necessary fruits of this iniquitous system ; sure I am that in these cases the executioner is as much to be pitied as the victim. Sir? the Planters have declared that their lives and their property are in jeopardy from the ag itation of this subject. They have thus ex- pressed their apprehensions, and, in my opinion, furnished another, reason for our interference.— 1 could allow for their fears, but, Sir, fear is always cruel. I allow, Sir, they are in jeopardy— that their lives are not safe— I admit this : how, can- tbeir lives be safe when every servant, almost every individual about them, and nearly all they can meet with, are snffereis under their oppression, and must loathe their very appearance. I regret, Sir, to say, that . I am personally interested in this question. I am riot, to he sure, a proprietor, nor have I a very large stake in the West India question^ but 1 am a mortgagee of West India property, and to an amount the loss of which would be of con siderable inconvenience. And why do I come here to support the propositions of Ministers ? Because I think my property in danger,, and because I think • opdsitrotis calculated to render it secure. I VM/ ANTED, in a Ladies' School in • r this County, a young Lady about 14 Years of Age, of very respectable Connexions, to be Ar- ticled for two Years. As she will be expected to render some Assistance, the Terms are in Propor- tion moderate— Thirty- five Guineas, which will include Board and a plain Education for two Years. A young Lady of pious Cpnnexious will be pre- fer red.— Address ( Post- paid) A. B. al the Printer's. A' House of Industry, Shrewsbury.

( Cheers.) Are we asking tlie immediate freedom of these chained blacks ? Assuredly not. I should as somi think of giving uncontrolled freedom to a herd » > f unmuzzled tigers. What we ask is the moral amelioration of the con- dition of the present generation, and that such provision shall he made for tbe future, that genera- tions yet unborn may not have to curse us for our conduct. Look at our West India Islands ; can it be expected that the blacks will beget and nurture a bieed of children to be subject to the Whip and hopeless bondage? I should, for m) own part,. as sooo think of breeding a race of children for the butcher. Haw then is the population of our West India Islands to be kept up ? By a system of con- cubinage! And are we as Christians to acquiesce in such au iniquitous principle ? Most undoubtedly tlie effect of concubinage is to weaken the natural affections ; and though it may be said that mar- riage is allowed to them, how can the institution, in a christian form, be said to exist there ? If mar- riage is honourable, it should be duly audeffectually promoted ; for if you take one step in a good path HOURIBl. li ATTEMPT AT MURDER AS MARTHA MASON, Dairymaid Am. to Mr. SCOTT, of Eyton, in the Parish of Wroxeter, in the Countv of Salop, was packing up Butter in a Basket, ready for Market, oa the Even- ing of Thursday, the 30th Day of October, 1823., a vile Assassin attempted to murder her, by firing a Gun or Pistol, loaded with Pieces of cut Lead, through the Dairy Window. The Slugs were prin- cipally lodged in the Left Side of her Face and Head, which have deprived her of the Sight of lie Eye, splintered the Cheek Boue, aad caused lie Life to be iu imminent Danger for many Days Thus, by the vile Act of some diabolical Wretch, has this honest and faithful Servant been disabled from earning a Livelihood, and that Face, which was reckoned handsome, is now painful to behold ber Mouth, too, can with Difficulty be opened wide enough to receive the smallest Pieces of Food. The Magistrates of the District, and the Inhabit- ants of Wroxeter, have hitherto been unsuccessful in their Endeavours to discover the Monster who committed the foul Deed, his Conscience being, at present, his only Accuser. It is hoped that a benevolent and charitable Public will pardon the Liberty which is taken, in soliciting their Contributions for this unfortunate Female, only 23 Years of Age, and by their Aid enable her to procure a few erf the Comforts of Life. The smallest Donation will be thankfully received by the Minister and Churchwardens of ,' Wroxeter, W'ANTS a Situation as BAILIFF. a Married Man, between Thirty and Forty Years of Age, whose Family is small ;' and whose Wife would superintend the Dairy.— Letters ( Post- paid) addressed to X.

I look upon them as their truest friends. It has been proved that, the slaves upon a plantation may be emancipated, not only without danger, but with great advantage. What then forbids that the slaves upon other estates may not be prepared for emancipation also, more especially as it is further in proof, that a cultivation by free labourers is cheaper than a cultivation by slaves; and when we consider how much the whites are outnumbered in the West Indies by the people of colour, we must beLjeve, that in proportion as the aspect of this perilous population is changed, and in proportion as its comforts are increased, in such proportion will the prosperity and the security of the West Indian islands be increased til so,. But if in the progress to this better estate, contrary indeed to my expectation,. any loss should be sustained, we never, haye denied the claim of compensation, for monstrous as the idea is. that, there should be 7 or 800,000 slaves in the distant dominions of a State to the laws of which slavery is unknown, yet as this auoinuly has accumulated not only with the connivance, but by what may be called the indirect sanction of this country, we are all, more or less, compromised with the evil, and may as a nation exclaim with the Patriarchs of old, 44 We are verily guilty concerning our brother," and, therefore, l'f the remedy must be purchased, it is but fair we should all share in the expense. And that I do not mistake either the law upon the subject, or our own corresponding duty, I have the satisfaction of quot- ing a decision in the Court of King's Bench no longer since than last Term. A number of slaves had found their way to a King's ship in the West Indies. Their master demanded their return. His Majesty's officers did not think themselves justified in forcing thes « poor men from the asylum they had procured. An action was then brought for da- mages in this country. But Mr. Justice Bay ley [ know not— hut if the fact he so, Jt< speaks volumes) io eutertaiu, and would be eagervtO hianifest toward* ibeir oppressors. This, Sii, is all * vje askmighty boon indeed ! w hen weighed against the degradation and the misery under. which this devoted race has so long and grievously laboured. 441 do not attempt, Sir, to speak of the policy of the measure, or of the advantages of free over dorced labour; nor would I advert to the compensation Jo- be made to the Planters, or the uipde of removing the distress which, it ii said, they atjir- esent suffer' These are subjects, Sir,, which.. wilt doubtless nreei with due cousiderution, wheti ihe great question is- considered by Parliament, and there ivve may safely leave them. One word, however, I would add ou the distress alluded to. I am not surprised, Sir, that such reasons of trouble should'ocenr. If vvt believe that there is a Providence that watches ove the affairs of men, and whose eye; is against op pressiou, it cannot he, Sir, hut that these supporters of a more than Egyptian bondage should beinade' ai times to feel his anger. We have read. Sir, of storms aud tempests* which have heretofore desolated these portions of the globe, and- swept aw'ay^ jn a momeiit, the labours of years.— 1 would deprecate indeed a repetition of such visitations; but 1 must say, Si that I should rejoice to hear, that a hurricane, bu of a very different description from those to which have aHuded'— that a moral hurricane ( ff I niay^ ii allowed the expression) had visited those scenes o oppression and w retchedness— that it had swept away the prejudices and the vicesiof years, and had sosh. ed its purifying influence over the; minds « f ihe white itihabitants of our Colonies, as- lo constrain them, length, to acknow ledge that the hitherto degraded Object* of their scorn and their cruelty, are fellow oren lures that they are > of one IdootP with them- selves— that they are 4 men and brothers..'—( CAeer.? ) JOHN BATHER, Esq. then addressed the Chair- man, as follows: — 44 Sir, It does not appear to me that any expressed difference of opinion is likely to arise in this as- sembly, on the subject now under discussion. I did not sign the requisition for calling this meeting ; end if it had been assembled to discuss the parti- aular measures to be adopted iti reference to our Colonial Interests, I do thi uk it wPrild have been pursuing a course quite out of its province. But,. Sir, we are met for no such purpose: we have merely met to request that Parliament: would give further efficacy to the measures which had there originated VVe merely ask theru to, take that burden of iniquity Off the shoulders of tlie country with which they hftve so long-! been loaded. Can we now be said to prejudicate this ntost serious, t! ris momentous question ? Certainly nofv What is tbe fact ? Parliament had passed a series of Resolutions oti the subject, which Iij? eplutio| is were most satis- factory to the feelings of the country } and if nothing- had occurred since, we should; have done well to have left the matter solely to tiie> Governuient of the country. Some, to be sure, have expressed a feverish, a tremulous, nay a shuddering anxiety, lest, the discussion of this question should raise a popular feeling in the country. But, Sir, when we read the Petition of the West India Planters, and bear one deserving and meritorious Minister called an enthusiast, if not an idiot, for endeavouring to give effect to the resolutions adopted by the Leg- is > I at lire, surely the expression of public opinion may serve to strengthen the hands of Ministers in this great work of humanity if they are iu earnest j to you must proceed in the same track ; aud if you adopt o ; e mtasiire of oppression, others of a similar nature will follow. The whole argument may, I think, be very shortly stated. We have forcibly taken riien who possess reasoning powers and moral sensibilities in as great a degree as ourselves, & we have degraded them to a level with brutes in fero- city, leaving them still the passions aud ingenuities of ipeii Our only safety is in retracing Our steps; let us first, humanize them, and then liberate them. We must leave to the wisdom of Parliament the time for the full accomplishment of these. measures j but to this it is our duty, our imperious duty, to call their attention immediately. Begin to- day ; if you unnecessarily delay till to- morrow it is an act of injustice. If w e can bring theni . into the pale of humanity we. shall have done much', and it wilt then be our duty to bring them within the pale of the British.

The Irish Road through Shrewsbury. MACADAMISING. To the Editor of the Salopian Journal. SIR, Important as this subject mast be to every one residing- Within these alicierit walls, suffer me to waste a few more drops of the sable streum to express a word on passing events. " Yet, vet a moment, one dim ray of light, 4s Indulge dread Chaos and eternal night." ; No person w ill deny that the Wyle Cop is one of the: greatest .. deformities on Salopia's, back. It has ' ever been considered an obstacle to the public sud. flie private traveller, the neighbouring farmer, « ' Ail '' the ' pantmg foot passenger. And, alas ! what has it at. length bccome I— the bed ou which we supinely rest— the tumulus of our departed spirit! None more than mvself bvmeuts the lukewarmness which appears to, pervade the inhabitants of Shrews- bury on tbe question of the continuance of tbe Irish Mail through the town. We seem to have forgotten the greaf' object which was once before us— the diminishing the steepness of the Wjle Cop.- We now seem lo entertain no regard to the main- spring by which our public meetings were at first set in motion. Instead of. nourishing our interests, we have been stifling them. We prefer an ill- judged economy to a timely laying out of our means; and calculate on a fair harvest, without properly sowing our seed.' In vain have we heen cautioned, day after dav, to endeavour effectually to secure our prize. The enemy is at our gate, and we have not courage sufficient to take one bold effectual step to prevent his nearer approach. If, therefore, we he despoiled of our treasure,' whom shall we have to blame ? Nothing which may be esteemed as a Itillwark has been raised. We are open to attack on every side : lor, as to the Mac- Adamisihg mea- sure, what is it but a piece of brown paper in the breach >— a mere bread and water poultice, which may affect ihe surface, but leave the core of the wound untouched ?. It is the height and steepness, and not the irregular surface of tbe hill in question, which have elicited, and still cAll forth, the objec- tions of the Commissioners of the Holyhead Road.. If we could appease this body by any means, it. were well ; but how can such an event be antici- pated by adopting the Mac- Adamising scheme? Do our exertions correspond ill tiie smallest degree with theirs ? Are our endeavours such as to induce them to look favourably on the present line, and to animate them to continue to improve it ? These questions time will answer; but, still will the Wyle Cop be an eye- sore to every inhabitant, a Demon lo haunt the' Commissioners, and' to pull at the carriage wheels of every traveller ! During tbe public labours 011 this question, I have, w ith many others, regarded the Hon. Thomas Kenvon, ( as a Commissioner of the Holyhead Road, and " a Gentleman w ho has so frequently proved himself the possessor of knowledge, judgment., aud talent,') as a leading star to direct to a happy termi- nation of the matter; and much I regret that the moderate aiid feasible plan proposed by Mr. Birch and others, and approved by tlie gentleman men- tioned, has not been adopted; conceiving lhat while it would. go far to induce, the Government to send their despatches in the usual route, it would greatly improve the Tow n of Shrewsbury, by add-' ipg to rts appearance, convenience, and . respecta- bility ; and this at comparatively a small sacrifice. These considerations, independently of the great probability of the adoption of the plan being a means of'securing the Irish Road in its present course, were sufficient to nave entitled it to a better fire. But, I trust, if occasion should require, it will again be brought forward, and that though at present it is like the sun " behind a cloud retired," it will " Break out again, and be by all admired. What,' it is asked, are the benefits which accrue claps. With these be sure to thick- set every act. Give directions, to the actor who is to play the principal part when lo roll his eyes, strike his fore- head, and clench his fist. A visitor two to Bedlam, or a perusal of tbe Castle Spectre, will serve you ill this particular. All your inferior characters are to speak fine language and utter noble sentiments. This practice has been condemned by some, but 1 think improperly; as it argues a principle of bene, volence to give a refiitefl education to the lower classes. If you could contrive to bring in a grand procession near the end success would be certain. John the coachman would praise the wonderful sight to Dorothy ihe cook, who would mention it to'Michael the butler, who would give an account of it to Jane the house- maid, who would whisper it fo her master, who would promise to go himself, and perhaps treat all his servants. • ^ WAliES. For the Salopian Journal. LLANFYLL1N. to Shrewsbury from its being on the grand line of communication between England and Ireland ? Let us consider for a moment the additional eon sumption of agricultural and other produce caused in the tovfir by the great influx of Irish' families anil other strangers, and we shall soon have an answer lo the question. Birds of passage do not carry all their leathers along with them. When men wander they must spend. Does advantage devol ve on'any person from a single shilling which a passing stronger leaves behind him ? Undoubt- edly. Il follows then, that in proportion to the thoroughfare of a town, must be the expenditure amongst, nnd the consequent profit to, its inhabit- ants. And is it to be imagined that if one class derives benefit from such a source, other classes reap none ? that if particular innkeepers or parti- cular tradesmen flourish, their neighbours derive no gain from their prosperity ? Are riches like a stagnant pool, or do they resemble a fluctuating ocean! Many hundreds are annually circulated through tbe town's active body, from tbe funds of Irish and other travellers, through necessity pur- suing tiie same route. Deprive us of these, and we shall he so many hundreds annually the poorer. Cheat a lion of his proper prey, and his nerves will become relaxed, and bis spirit dejected : rob the town of its Irish visitors, and one source, whence a portion of ita daily sustenance flows, will be stopped. Let the road be diverted, and we shall soon hear the tribes of butchers, bakers, brewers, maltsters, grocers, harness and coach- makers, utter a general lamentation for its loss, while the sums total of their bills will prove their murmurs are not without a cause. We are all either directly or indirectly interested in each other's prosperity. Though, Mr. Editor, an Irish traveller may not stop to purchase a Journal at your office, the money he leaves behind him may be the means of enabling many to become politicians. Wealth must ever inspirit the neigh- bourhood in which it is found. As the stream that gushes. from the mountain's side beautifies and fertilizes the meadows through which it meanders, so the golden waters, in some measure, wash and replenish" every hand. Weaken parts of a commu- nity,.! and you ' injure the whole ; strengthen parts, And the whole receives animation. ; bnt, jfo'r ihe present, the die iscast; and if you, Mr. Eilitor, will permit, and your readers excuse, a- playful flight, T will say titte .' with the following IMPROMPTU: Alas! who but, laments to see A change so dire aud solemn ?

SAINT DAVID'S DAY was celebrated at this place by tlie members of a Benefit Society established some years ago amongst the inhabitants. The operations of the day were commenced by tbe chiming of' the bells for Divine service. About eleven o'clock tbe members Of' the Society mustered at the Guild Hall, where each individual decorated his hat with the emblematic leek, and from thence went in a procession, beaded by a band of music and the stewards, up to tbe Rectory. Upon then- making a halt opposite the front entrance, M Hughes, accompanied by some friends, fame out, and in the most handsome manner presented them with a beautiful aud elegant silk flag, upon both sides of which was a highly finished painting, uf Saint David, enrobed in the ecclesiastical costume of the sixth century, holding-- up a leek in one of his bands. It was very generally and vastly ad- mired as an excellent piece of workmanship. We understand it was executed at Shrewsbury. In the pole corner was painted the Union jack, and under neath tbe representation of St. David were tbe following inscriptions: " Cymdeithas Disgyblion Dewi Sauf' —" Undeb a brawdgarweh"—" Oni heuir ni fedir." From the Rectory the procession proceeded to church, headed by the Rector, the llev. David Hughes, and his brother, the Rev. Daniel Hughes, of Wrexham, who preached an animated and appropriate discourse in tbe Welsh language froin- Prov. xix. 17. After Divine service, a sumptuous dinner was served up bv Mrs. Jones, of the Boar Inn, in the Town Hall, to a very numerous assemblage. M. Bihby, Esq. took the chair, and, after the cloth was removed, proceeded to inspect the accounts, from which, he stated, he was happy to observe that the funds of tbe Society bad . materially increased during the lust year, and he hoped the" Society would ever continue thus prosperous. The usual toasts were. given, and that of " Mrs. Hughes, and thanks to her for the Flag" was most enthusiastically drank with 3 times3 and ihe thunders of approbation which it elicited did not subside for a considerable length of time. Mr. John Jones, the Bard, addressed the company in some Welsh poetry, and also recited some Englyn- ion to Mrs. Hughes for her valuable present, amidst great applause and continued cheers. The con- viviality of the evening was accompanied bv a splendid illumination of the Town Hall. We sin- cerely rejoice that t| ie Principality sets such a laudable example to the rest ot the United King- dom in celebrating the anniversary of her tutelar Saint by works of benevolence or the encouragement of literature. Saint David, like every other saint, is but little cognizant of the proceedings of this netherworld, and, doubtless, cares as little about what is here thought of his memory ; but if his name is commemorated by awarding prizes to literary merit, or r. n acts of charity to the friendless, it will tend much more substantially to the amelio- ration of our fellow creatures and the good of the country than meetings merely for the purpose of carousals aiid potations. The natives of Wales now, we are happy to observe, generally meet on the Ist of March for one or other of these praiseworthy purposes. The following excellent stanzas were recited at this meeting, having beeu composed for the occasion by Mr. Hugh Jones, conductor of a Welsh Miscel- lany which has for some time been edited at Chester.

WORTLEY and Lord BINNING oppo'sed the motion, chiefly on tbe ground that the elective franchise having once been vested in paiticulur bands, it ought not to be removed w ithout some eminent instance of iniscon. duel being proved, which had neither been done nor even attempted. After a debate of some continuance the motion was negatived by a division of 99 to 75. Mr. R. MARTIN nioved that a Select Committee be appointed to inqnire bow far tbe amusement of bear- baiting aiid other cruel sports had a mischievous effect ou the morals of the people; but the motion being- opposed by Mr. Secretary PEEL and other members, it was withdrawn. In a Committee on Ibe Postage Raies Bill, Mr. HERRIES said ibe Bankers had repeatedly applied to the Treasury lo have 1 heir'notes transmitted under ( be protection of the Post- office. He had now to pro- pose that, iu future, parcels of bank notes, not ex- ceeding six ounces in weight, should be carried through the Post office at one- fourth less postage than would be otherwise charged for them, which, was agreed to, HOUSE OF COMMONS- FRIDAY. The House were for a considerable time occupied in discussing tbe propriety of receiving a petition,' presented liv Mr: Deiuiia, n, front Mr. Charles Flint, licensing a Member of the House ( Mr. CHETW- Y> D, M. P. for Stafford) of acts of oppression and injustice, as a Miigistraie, towards the petitioner.— Mr. Chet- wynd strongly urged Ihe reception of the petition by the House. That be might distinctly and separately reply to the allpgaliuns it set forth, observing that " if lie did not, to tbe very letter, refute every charge that it contained, he would becoulent thai tbe House should dismiss him froni its vyalls, and that the Lord Chancellor should strike his. name out of ibe Com- mission." After hearing the stale meets of Mr. PEEL and the ATTORNEY and SOLICITOR- GENERALS, ihe. House appeared disinclined to entertain the petition, and after some wa'rin testimonies to the character of the learned 11, ember whose conduct il called in question,- Mr. Doornail withdrew it.

SOUTHAMPTON, FEB. 2.8.— On Wednesday morning about two o'clock, a fire broke out at Wood Mill, about thiee miles from this town, which ter- minated in the total destruction of that extensive building, but providentially without the loss of life. It appears to have originated on . that portion of tbe 1 premises in which ' a saw ing. machine bail been erected bv Mr. Irvine, who, with his . family, owe their fortunate preservation 10. a dog, whose luittl and incessant barking aroused them to a sense of their danger, and they escaped nearly in a state of nudity; luit . the faithful animal fella victim to the flames. Immediate intelligence of tbe calamity was sent to. this town ; . yet, notwithstanding every exer- tion, it was nearly or quite five o'clock before ibe engine arrived at the spot, during which time Ihe building, containing tbe sawing machinery, was so far destroyed that all attempts lo save it were deemed unavailing, Tbe adjoining parts, consisting of a dwelling- Ill, use, corn- mill, aud store, in the occu- pation of Messrs. Lotner, were therefo. ie the objects which attracted attention; but, notwithstanding every exertion, the destructive element bad obtained such an ascendancy, from the quantity of wood in the different buildings, the outside being weather hoarded and tarred, a few hours completed ils entire ruin. Tiie premises belonged to J. Fleming, Esq. ill. P. of Stoneham Park, and the various insurances amount to about £ 4,000.

Yoii are to levy. contributions upon all the graces and christian virtues to grace her body and adorn her mind. After- a variety of distresses,, soliloquies, and dialogues, let both resolve, to escape. Make a spy inform against tliem, amlhe suri; 10 place a strong guard on the road which they are to take. Notwithstanding- a skilful display of fencing on the part of the hero, allow the unhappy pair to be taken prisoners and thrown into separate duno- eotis. When you have'kept them there for some time on bread and water ( diet which wonder- fully strengthens love), take them- out, the one to be married to the object of her aversion, and the other to receive his sentence from the assembled council. Having rattled his chains and made a ifitie speech he is to be led to execution. To keep the honour and the fee from the executioner, you must make him do the business himself with a dagger. You have now no more trouble in this part than to make your heroine mad and die whilst tiie curtain slowly descends to soft music. About the scenery you must be very particular. Into it I would advise yon to transplant a fevv'German forests, and, if you could conveniently, turn the course of some river.

There was a numerous attendance of the friends of the institution, amongst whom were many Welsli gentlemen of consequenee. Mr. D F. Jones read the list of donations, amounting to £ 1,128, which, to gether with the proceeds of the Cambrian ball, £ 700, after paying- certain building expenses, left the society a clear fund of £ 40,000 in tbe 3 per Cent. Consols. At the head of the list of subscribers was his Majesty, £ 105 per annum. Tbe gallery was thronged with ladies. At CURSTER, St. David's Day, was celebrated with great ecl& t. The Members of the two Cyinmrodorioi! Societies went together in procession to Church, and afterwards dined respectively al the Albion Hotel and Feathers Inn, In the course of the evening, it w announced that a handsome sum had been contributed towards the foundation oF. aii Institution for the relief ofthe indigent Welsh.— A new Steam Packet, called the Si. David, was launched the same day, and which is intended to ply between the coast of Flint aud Chester. At DENBIGH, the Literary Society assembled to Divine Service ; after which they dined- together, and distributed a variety of Prizes. One of these was awarded to the [ lev. E. Baiues. near Corwen, for the best Welsh translation of Mr HtuniTreys Parry* English Essay on the utility of holding Eisteddvodau. The RUTHIN Welsh Literary Society also assembled on the same dav, for the distribution of Prizes, & c.; when K. Myddelton Lloyd, Esq High Sheriff of Denbighshire, took the chair as Patron of The Insiitu lion.— The Prize for the best Welsh Poeii) on " the feudal conflicts of Lord Grey and Owain Glyndwr, 1 was awarded to Mr. Robert Davies, of Nantglvn. That for the best Welsh translation of Parueli's " Hermit," also was due to !$ r.

The Silver' Medal for the best performance on the Harp was bestowed on Mr. E- lward Jones, of LI, an gollen; and Hugh Roberts, of Glaseoed, obtained the Prize for the best singer as a Datgeiniad. Mr. John Griffiths, of Denbigh, obtained the Prize for the best Essay on u Negro Slavery." In LIVERPOOL, BIRMINGHAM, & C. the Gentlemen connected with the Principality assembled to do honour to their Patron Saint by works of benevolence, & c. for having in certain observations made by him in the Court of Chancery ( and which weie noticed in our last journal), charged the Hon, Member, by unequivocal description, wi, th having stated an k4 utter falsehood" in the debate on Wednesday last. Mr. AP/ ERCROMBY explained that lie had never made the statements imputed to him by the Morning Herald, which appeared to have furnished the grounds for this coarse attack. He concluded by a motion to call Mr. Farqnliaison, a short- hand writer, to the bar, to prove the use of the offensive words by the Lord Chancellor. Mr. BROUGHAM, Mr. SCARLETT, Mr. W. WILLIAMS, Mr. TIERNEY, Sir J. MACINTOSH, & C & C. supported tbe motion, which was opposed ( chiefly on the plea that consideration was due to the excited feelings of Lord El don on perusing the report in the* Morning Herald) by Messrs. CANNING, PEEL, WYNN, and the ATTORNEY and SOLICITOR GENERALS, and ultimately rejected by a majority of 151 to 102. HOUSE OF COMMONS^ TtJESDAY. Mr HOBHOUSF, brought forward his motion for a repeal of the Window Tax. He detailed the multi- plied oppressions and evils of the Assessed Taxes generally, and epecially of that tax, the repeal of which was the particular object of his motion. These oppressions and evils he described with great truth and effect. He spoke with, some disrespect of the Sinking- Fund, but explained, Uuit without in- fringing upon it, the Window- Tax might be re- pealed by continuing the Silk and Wool duties, and some other of those which the Chancellor of the Exchequer proposed to repeal. He bore testimony, however, to the general soundness of the Right Hon. Gentleman's views. Mr, MABERLY supported the motion. He depre- cated the preservation of a Sinking- Fund, at an annual expense of live millions ; and argued that public'credit would he better sustained by the sale of the Land Tax, according to the detailed plan which he bad given last year. By adapting- ibis measure the Sinking Fund might, he said, b^; re- nqu'ubed, and t| ie whole body of assessed taxes swept away ; he objected to tbe continuance of hoih Malt and a Beer Duty, if the latter were given up, and a proportionate increase made upon the former, the expense of collecting the repealed branch, £ 280,000 per annum, would be saved. The CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER defended the selection he had made of taxes to be reduced. He denied that Mr. Maherly's proposition, for a sale of Hie laud tax, promised so certain and favourable a tresult as to authorise him to reduce the Assessed xes in contemplation of its success, lie maintained he utility of a Sinking- Fund, which, though itjmght be dispensed with by a people assured of everlasting peace, was absolutely necessary to a nation subject to tbe calamity of war. He professed great pleasure in stating, tliHt in addition to ibe taxes which, on a former'evening, he had proposed to give up, he vvas now able to offer a surrender of all the taxes upon law proceedings. Mr. J. SMITH expressed much gratification at the last communication, but objected to the grant of £ 800,000 for building Churches and repairing Wind- sor Castie.. Lord ALTIIORP ridiculed the Sinking Fund ; and Mr. BARING defended it at some length. Mr. W SMITH and Lord MILTON spoke in favour of the motion, as did Mr. HUME, who proposed A reduction of the military establishment to meet the necessary reduction of taxation. On a division the numbers were— For the motion against it 155. rington, for defrauding the revenue. Saturday, Mr B. Dring,, tallow- chandler, Oxford- street was con vieled in the penalties of £ 1000, for clandestinely making up soap at a place called Hodge's Farm, to evade the duties. Tiie proprietors of a brewery at & ris- to!, have lately been fined in the Court of Exchequer, to the amount of five thousand pounds, for using unlawful ingredients, mixing strong und table beer, and otherwise evading the Excise Laws. At the last Maidstone Assizes, Vaughan, a notorious resurrection man, was convicted ofstealing five dead bodies, aud sentenced to two years' im prison in en t, but contrived to escape, and a rewar of £ 50 " as offered for his apprehension. A wee since, Kinsey, the vigilant officer of the Town Hall, South war k, received private ' information that this marauder vvas practising at Manchester, and lost, not a moment in going in quest of him. On Sunday letter was received, stating' that he had succeeded i capturing the object of his search, with the assistance of Mr. Lavender, at the head of the Manclieste police, after a desperate resistance. On Monday morning, at one o'oioek, Kinsey passed through the Borough on his way to Maidstone with his prjsone BANK NOTE ROBBERY.— On the 4th January 189.1, while Mr. Gallatly, one ofthe Cashiers of the Banking- house of Messrs. Jones, Loyd, and Co. ill Lothbury, was counting some notes, a man entered and snatched a bundle containing Bank of En « - lan notes to the amount of between £ 4000 aud £ 5000. The Cashier was so completely stunned at the robbery that lie did not even call for assistance until the thief had rushed into the . street, and made his escape i through Toke. nhotise- yard, where, it was suspec ted, a house was open for his reception. A few day • after the robbery, a watchsiVaker in the city \ va applied to by a decent- looking man for a sjout silver watch. A £ 10 bote vvas given by the stranger to the watchmaker, who soon afterwards ascertained that it was one of those which had been stolen from th banking- house. About 12 mouths afterwards, the watchmaker received a visit from the. same. person, who produced the watch, and wished that it should be either changed or repaired. The watch make instead of contriving to get the fellow into his ppw with address, stared at him and darted round the counter to seize upon his person, but the thief wa too active, and easily escaped, notwithstanding th.< cry of " stop tbief^" which pursued hint for some time. The watch was, however, left in the watch- maker's hands. All enquiry after him was useless for a length of time, but the stolen notes began by. slow degrees to return to the house, and it was con- jectured tliat the thief was living cautiously upon the profits of his enter prize. At last a stolen £ 50 note was passed at Gravesend, and the person who had uttered it was apprehended. He behaved very impudently, and denied that lie knew any thing about the robbery. The watcliujaker, however, ihe moment he saw hhii, said, " that is" the very man who gave me the stolen £ 10 note for the watch." The ca* hjerJof Messrs. Junes, Loyd, and. Co. also identified him as the person who snatched the bundle of notes. The prisoner's name is George Wathen, and he has been remanded for further examination, BANKRUPTS, MARCH 2.— James Murray, of Man- chester, joiner.— William Dorriug'ton, of Cornhill, broker.— Thomas Glover, John Qakden, Ralph Lomas, John Dethiek, and John Green, of Derby, I flax- manufacturers.— Charles Messenger, of Ox- I, ford, cabinet- maker.— Henry West, of Worthing, Sussex, linen- draper.— William Richard Colbert., of Maidstone, Kent, brewer.

The Judge observed there appeared some doubt as to the regularity of the service of the warrant, and the Jury, after a long deliberation, found a hill for Manslaughter against Conolly and his servant Hugh Moran, and , ignored the bill against the females and the other servant named Trayers,— On Friday Mr. Conolly and Moran were tried and found Guilty ; and on Saturday Conolly was sentenced to be transported for life, and Moran to be imprisoned six months.— Mr. Justice Best said, that if it had not been for the irregularity in the service of the warrant borne by the deceased, Conolly vvould have been found guilty of murder, and in that case he should certainly have left him for execution. climate, have long established their superiority over every other Medicine hitherto discovered They are strongly recommended for Headache and Indi ig- estioii, Gouty, Bilious, or other Complaints of the Stomach and Bowels, too often the consequence of fi; ee living-.

DR. JAMES'S POWDER. rjpHE celebrity of this medicine, and JL. its unquestioned efficacy is more than ever established, by the greatly increased introduction of it into the prescriptions of the most eminent Physi- cians at the present time. For the guidance of those persons who are out of the reach of medical advice, each packet is enclosed with full directions for its use. In cases of Fever it vvill often effect a cure in a few hours, especially wheu freely given, and at the outset of the disease. It is administered with equal success in all attacks of Measles, St. Anthony's Fire, S# re Throat, Pleurisy, ami Rheumatism; but as Colds and Catarrhs partake more or less of inflam- matory symptoms, this Powder is peculiarly effica- cious in cutting short their duration ; which, however harmless they ijiay be thought, often terminate in Pulmonary Affections, the fatal consequences of which are but too well known. As an Alterative iu Chronic Diseases, it is an admirable remedy. Dr. James's Powder continues to be prepared by Messrs. NEWBERY, and is sold by them at the ORIGINAL WAREHOUSE, NO. 45, St. Paul's Church- yard ; and by their appointment in most Country Towns. Packets 2s 9d.; Bottles 24s. and 33s. each. The genuine is distinguished by haying the nauic " F. Newbery," engraved in the Government Stamp. ME ANIMATION, When I lie most important functions of life are suspended, and those who are invalids by inheritance or impru- deuce, are reduced to the most deplorable state 1 § of nervous debility, it is not in despair that relief is to be found. Dr. La- | jjf£. wert's CORDIAL BALM W OF ZURA, or PHCEN JX m OF LIFE, is the best, if not the only remedy for this speciesofd^ bility, so diffusely salutary, that while it restores tone to the neryes, health and vigour to the entire frame;, it imparts a genial warmth through every fibre, and exhilarates the animal spirits in such a manner that it may fairly be said to re- animate nature. In all cases of relaxation and weakness of the system in either sex, proceeding from dissipation, excess., unpropitious climate, or any cause whatever, this Cordial is a certain and effectual remedy * when aversion to exercise, loss or depravity of appetite, 9ud pallid countenance, indicate asthma or ap- proaching consumption, the. delicate female will be preserved and restored to health and society by the benign influence of this inestimable Cordial.

FOR COUGHS, Pectoral Essence of ColHfmt. rglHE Herb Coltsfoot has long been JL distinguished for its excellent Properties in the Cure of C^ ighs and other Pulmonary Com- plaints ; and this Essence has, in the, course of a long practice, been found the most safe and effectual remedy for Coughs, and all Disorders of the Itung- s. It gently opens the Breast, and immediately gives liberty of breathing, without any danger of t^ kjng cold, and thus it affords great relief in Asthmatic Complaints. It allays the tickling which provokes frequent coughing, cleanses the small glands, re- laxes the fibres, and thereby enlarges the cavities of the vessels. Thus it will prevent Consutpptipns, if taken before the Lungs are ulcerated. It softens husky and dry Coughs, and heals rawness and sore- ness of the Chest. This Pectoral Essence is prepared by JAMES RYAN, Surgeon, in Bristol; and sold in Bottles at 3s. 6d. each, by F. NEWBERY ^ SONS, 45^ St. Paul's Church Yard; and by their appointment in most Country Towns.
