For Particulars see Racing Calendar, No. 3, The anniversary meeting in Loudon to celebrate the Birth of the late Ri° ht Hon. William Pitt, was shortly noticed in our last Journal. Among the toasts given, was " His Majesty's Ministers, and may they long continue in officeon which the Right Hon the Lotto CHANCELLOR, rose, and spoke to the following effect: — " In rising, Gentlemen, to acquit myself of tlie task, which your kindness has imposed upon me, it is my first business to state that I am sensible of my own niter incompetence to convey to you the feelings of gratitude which oppress me at the address of which your worthy Representative in the Chair baa been pleased to make me the object, or at the man- ner in which you have- condescended to sec » nd that address. Gentlemen, it is just' about twenty years since that great man, whose memory we are this day met here to celebrate, was placed iu his grave. But although his mortal remains be now mouldering in the tomb, his name will be everlasting ( Applause.) I bad tbe. honourof attending the first of these Meet- ings, which the grateful people of this count'rV have instituted to the memory of Mr. Pitt. 1 stated upon that occasion that, as long as God should grant me life and health to witness the succeeding anniversary of this celebration, I should consider it as one of ihe first duties incumbent . upon me not to be absent from it. { 4pplausej I was influenced, in forming tiii* determination, by many causes. First, because my knowledge was most intimate, perhaps mWe intimate than that of any other individual, with ihe infinite services which that great mm conferred upon bis country ; aud I cannot conceive that any man's heart is wholly under the impulse of right feeling which denies that tribute due to public merit, which has been justly described by your worthy Chairman as the highest gratification of a public man, viz. the applause of his country. ( Hear.) You will permit me to recall to your attention-— there are some here, I am afraid, too young to remember, but there are others to whom the word recall may be justly applied — yon will permit me, then, to recall to your minds what was the state of this country when that great man entered upon the execution of his office. Our financial affairs vvere perplexed with unexampled embarrassment; tbe whole world was arrayed in arms against us, and no man could look at the prospect before his eyes, without some feeling of dread as to the result. Perhaps, in con- templating so alarming a crisis, that great truth may come as a relief to the mindj that ii' England be tine to herself, she has nothing to fear. ( Hear ) But, Gentlemen, England, at that time, was not tru « to herself. ( Heur ) I call upon you to recollect, that sedition stalked through the land teaching treason. I call upon you to recollect the means resorted to to stifle the precepts of that pure Religion, whose maintenance is the best safeguard of the interest of the public, because of its cotineetion with toleration. ( Hear ) ' T call to your recollection the efforts made to accomplish the ruin of ihe Religious Establish- ments of the country. These were the difficulties which beset that great man upon his entrance into office. He was called Upon, not only to meet the demands upon the finances and blood of the country •> liot only to oppose the powerful combinations of the enemy abroad; but to do that which' I know wa » most painful to hiui, to abridge tiie liberties of his countrymen, in order more effectually to secure their eventual preservation. ( Hear.) A more delicate or difficult ta » k never Ie1l to the hit of mail. He paused long before he resolved upon taking- such a step, bui when he did so resolve, he acted with a'triumph* ant firmness, to which alone he owed the conipleifofi of bis great design. And when, Gentlemen, > » » « compare the. situation, and prospects of this count ry at the present period, and the blessings" which," under Providence, we have realised, and now most con- spicuously enjoy, with tbe portentous circuuiNtances of the time to which 1 have alluded, may I not ask you if it be possible von should fo- get what lhat man did for his country? ( Loud cheering ) It is now but two or three years ago since we met in thisplace, wlic « , after a war of unexampled duration, and fraught with such evil* difficult during its progress that few could speak wito confidence ; is to the happy result, as the blessings of peace had scarcely began to be felt, and every one . was com- plaining lhat things were worse than before. Even in this, Gentlemen, we had a new proof furnished us of the sagacity of this great Minister. That great man foresaw that after the great storm which had rocked the State iu peill, the waves would not im. ^ mediately ^ ejile and be still. He knew lhat much must be endured, but that if, in the midst of con- flicting elements, the main principles of ihe C011- ! stitution in Church and State were p eserved, those principles would eventually restore to , JS all that- we ' ever possessed of happiness and liberty. ((> heers.) Those principles are valuable because they are rational ; the} give all the liberty which it is possible fo. r a man in a state of society, with reference to ihe liberties of his fellow men, to enjoy. They depi ve a man of nothing which he ought to keep, whilst ihey give him the utmost he can wish. With this view of the principles of our Constitution, thai great man foresaw that we should sooner OP inter be in ihe prosperous situation we now • njoy-'- a situation which no man who reverts to our condition in times not long past, can say, without taking- these things into consideration, be could even have hoped to witness. ( Cheers.) Gentlemen^ the Protestant Ascendancy, to which, as il has been made one of your toasts, I may advert— the Protestant Ascend- ancy, I trust in God, for the x; ike of those who quarrel with it, may ever continue to be enjoyed in this country ( Loud cheering.) There was a lime when a difference of religious opinion was attributed to Mr. Pitt; and those who were the supporters of his political principles But I know of no difference of opinion between ( bat great man and the humble individual who now presumes to tell you, I hat he will ever act according to his principles. No- thing could have induced Mr. Pitt to make any alteration in Church or State, which lie was riot sure would be consistent with the security of both. Upon this point, as to what is, and what is not, consistent with the security of the Constitution, I know that different .. pinions are held by the most i « ? Rpeetable men in the country. In the different projects which we are destined to witness upon ibis occasion, 1 trust we only see different men seeking* by different means the same end. ( Hear, hear.) I trust the object is the same in all ; but what I say is, that, to the utmost of my power, I will stand by the political institutions of the country as they were formed iuthe time of Mr. Pitt Let me say, Gentlemen, that " upon this subject my political opinions are fixed, so as that nothing can alter them. Ecclesiastical tyranny, be assured, will always lead to civil despotism; whilst ecclesiastical freedom ensures civil liberty. ( Loud cheers.) With these opinions, which I do not conceive it possible for me to alter, were I not to w ish to every subject in this country all the toleration which he can possibly enjoy, con sistently wilh the security of the Constitution ill Church aud State, I should be unworthy of your favour, and of the high station I hold. I firmly believe that a departure from these principles would in one moment destroy our happy Constitution in Church and State, and do full as much mischief to those who dissent as to those who agree iu them. The Constitution to which I adhere was begun at the time of the Revolution, it was fixed al the time of the Revolution, and through a century of difficulty and danger it has conducted this country happily and prosperously, the admiration and envy of ihe world. ( Cheers.) Gentlemen, do not lose the bless- ings secured to you by the Constitution. ( Cheers.) I should not be deserving of the compliments which have been paid to me by the Chair if I did not state to you, that during the short time 1 have to remain in this world, to tbe utmost of my power I wili support the Constitution under which I live, and may God Almighty allow me to leave the world knowing that it is secure!" [ The most enthusiastic plaudits continued to < rreet this speech long after the Noble and Learned Lord and his Majesty's Ministers present had resumed their seats.] NEWCASTLE- UNDER- LYME Up faction.

JAMES'S POWDER, HHH E celebrity of this Medicine, and Jl its decided Efficacy, is more th* n ever es^ ab lished, by the greatly increased Introduction o. it into the Prescriptions of the most eminent Physician* at the present Time. For live 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 will often effect a Cure iu a few Hours, especially when freely g'iven, and at the Outset ofthe Disease. It is administered with equal Success in all Attacks of Measles, St. Anthony's Fire, Sore Throat, Pleurisy, and 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, how- ever harmless they may be thought, often terminate in Pulmonary Affections, the fatal Consequences of which are but too well known. As an Alterative in Chronic Complaints, it is used with peculiar Success. Dr. JAMES'S Powder continues to be prepared by Messrs.

COUIIT OF KING'S BICNCH: Map Z1— An action was brougnt this day by Hamilton Brown*, Esq. against Mr. Murray, the bookseller, of don, for a libel published, in the 5/ th and 5sth Nos. of tbe Quarterly Review The plaintiff, through the recommendation ot' Lord' Archibald Hamilton, was appointed in IK 17 by Sir Thomas Maitland to sMuitrin. n.. « !' Chief Ass;. Ktwt » t iu the office of the Ionian S'Miaie; but in 1821 M r. Browne was discover* eil to have communicated no me private information derived from documents in the public offices, to Lord A Hamilton, aud some time afterwards he received nn intiina'tiou, that in consequence of some new ar- rangements his services were no longer necessary • to which it was added, tliut there were other reasons for his dismissal.— Two years after this the Quarterly Keview charged Mr. Brawns wrth ingra- titude to hi « 8fr Thomas Maitbind, with confessing that he had secretly transmitted to Eng- land documents which iu his official capacity came under his controul, and that in consequence he was dismissed. — Mr. Denman, for the plaintiff, declared that a vindictive spirit had been shewn towards Mr Browne, first in pursuing him through severaJ numbers ( » f the Quarterly Review, and iu selecting him for persecution instead of Lord A. Hamilton, who was in a condition to hurl back the calumnies brought against hinV. — The Attorney- General, for the defendant, contended that the libel uas sub- stantially true,-- The Lord Chief Jintice, in sum- ming up, said, upon the evidence it was c! ea>' that the - plaintiff hud been guilty of a'. violation of bis duty ; but as that, violation had not been established tothe extent stated in the libel, a verdict must be found for such temperate ' damages as the Jury might think the plaintiff entitled to.-— The Jury retired for three quarters of an hour, arid returned a verdict for the plain- tiff: damages £' i50. On Friday, the Corn Distiller*, in a long inter view with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, re- pit'Stmted to him, in distinct terms, the conse quenccs of the present Distillery Bill as it re gani « H their trade; that, by permitting rum lo be converted into gin by tiie Rectifiers, the use of rorn spirits, hitherto employed m the manufacture of that article, would be excluded ; that rum, even under the proposed protecting duty of Is. 3d. will be afforded below what corn spirit can be made fin ; benre the complete transfer to t lie West Indies of the distillery of England. 1 be Distillers urged these consequences as ruinous to their trade. The Right Hon Gentleman observed, that ( he measure as it now stood was the result of the best view he bad been enabled to take of it. The Distillers did no more, however, than hint at the loss of ( ton sumption thence aiising to the agriculturist, of from 2 to 300,000 quarters of barley annually, but left that part of the case to be taken up by tbe Corn Growers themselves.

His Royal Highness said, it gave him peculiar pleasure to present this premium to such au individual, as it proved that no condition of life was too humble to entitle the possessor of talent to public honour and reward, when that individual directed the energies- of his mind to the public good. This was the grand connecting link between the various classes of which society was composed, that contributed at once to the security, the happiness, and the pride of this Country.

WOODCOCKS— That during the month of March these estimable birds keep draw ing towards the coast, and avail themselves of the first fair wind to return to their native woods, is a well knoyvn fact. But that some deviate from the course which Nature seems to have taught them, and remain throughout the year and b> ced in this country, though asserted by Latham and Pen- nant, its not so generally credited Their assertions have, however, been corroborated in so many well authenticated instances adduced by Mr Tunstall, as to leave little doubt of the fact; and the folio ing extraordinary circumstance, which has been transmitted by a highly respectable and valued . Correspondent, will perhaps be considered additional . proof:— Last week, a Woodcock was killed by a Hawk, in the grounds of George M cares. Esq of Dollys, near Llanidloes, Montgomeryshire a person passing by at the moment, picked up the Woodcoik, which proved a very fine and excellent bird. • The Viscount Clive has given Ten Guineas to the subscription for the family of the late Mr J Homifieys Parry, which make* £ 216 leceived from Montgomeryshire.

Cuptai Monro having mentioned their situation, requested that the other vessel should remain in company to afford tnem assistance ; the captain did so, and th crew of the Columbus laudably redoubled llreir ex erlions to save her, but to no effect, for after beiu^ in this state for eight hours, np to six p. 111. she rolled so mu - h that the steaui engine was rendered unserviceable, and the pumps were choked, the being from 14 to I'd feet watef iu the hold. Th captain, finding all attempts to save her fruitless put out the launch, with a quantity of provisions, convey 011 board the Dolphin, but in a moment si was stove to pieces against the ship's bow. Th situation now became truly alarming, as every moment they expected the vessel would founder, her tin.*). us became so open.— There only remaiuea two boats, au. l those weie launched, and in Ihem they succeeded iiigetiing on board the other vessel, the captain of which, finding lie had not sufficient provisions and water for the eulire, amounting to eighty six, including his own crew, changed his course and sailed for England, with the intention of landing at Falmouth.- lu this attempt he was frus- trated bv the southerly winds fhnt prevailed, and after beating about for some time in gnat distress, being obliged to subsist oil a biscuit and a pint of Water each man, and four pounds of poik between, twelve per day, from the period of their shipwreck, they arrived : n Cove, where they received every possible attention from the THE GRAND CRIOKKT HATCH.—' The RANTCLN for ltlOO sovereigns, between * 22 Yorkshire playeia and 11 of All England, aud whicb has excited such great interest amongst the amateurs anil patrons of this noble game, ivas commenced flay- ing at Darnall, near Sheffield, 011 Whit.

DISTRESSING CASE.— An inquest was held at Chelsea, on the body of, a young- lady, unknown. It appeared that ou Saturday, tile 2.1st ult. she engaged a furnished lodging al No. 3, Elizabeth Place, Chelsea, al 12o. per week; her name was not asked, nor a reference required : she appeared a perfect lady, and was dressed 111 the most fashion- able manner; she stated that she was a married woman, and had come upwards of 100 miles from1 the . Country/ 011 business. On the following Sun- day, lier trunk was brought to ihe bouse by a purler; in the evening she called for Mrs. Hunt, the landlady, and she said she was dying. Mrs, Hunt discovered that she was iu labour, und sent for a medical gentleman, ivho prescribed for her, and went away ; about 20 minutes after, she ex- pired. Her body was opened; but the coals of the stomach were free froiri poison, and il was the opinion of Ihe surgeons thai h'er death was caused by a miscarriage, brought on by excessive afflict ion.

A commercial panic has been maliciously excited iu Dublin during the last week, with respect to he Banks of that city, which has done great mischief.— Five hundred pounds have been offered as a reward for the detection of the propagator of tbe mischief, which was effected by tile circulation of penny post letters anil placards containing tin. founded reports of tbe expected failure of a particular Bank.— There had Keen some heavy commercial failures, so that the public mind was in a state to receive injurious impressions. It has been ascertained, that the body of a man, mentioned in our last to have been found in a sack, in the River Avon, al Bath, aud supposed to have beeu murdered, was a subject procured for the use of professional students ; and a reward of 50 guineas is offered for the discovery of the parlies concerned in so inhuman a deception. THE NEW BANKRUPT ACT — Among the en- actments contained in this statute, the clause, which relate to clerks, servants, and apprentice, are peculiarly worthy of notice. It has frequently occurred that economical servants have suffered their wages, salaries, & e. to lie io art- ear lo a con- siderable amount, until bankruptcy overtook their principal, and their accumulated savings have beeu swept away by the wreck. The present Act pro- vides that clerks and servants may be paid six months' salary in full, and be allowed lo prove under the commission for alt anterior claims how. ever remote. With respect to apprentices, Ibe Act presents a most wholesome clause II lias often happened thai a needy struggling man, 011 Ihe very eve of bankruptcy, has indentured au apprentice to himself, aud received a fee of con- sideration to a large amount, which sum has beeu applied for geueral purposes, and the result line been that the apprentice is casl upon the world without a knowledge of his business, or Ihe pecu- niary means uf obtaining it. in order to obviate Ibis evil ( and a great one il surely is) ihe 491I1 clause viins thus:—" Antl be 11 enacted, that where any person shall be an apprentice lo a bank- rupt al the time of issuing ilje commission against him, the issuing of. such commission shall be a comnlete discharge of the indenture or indentures, whereby surli apprentice was bound lo such bank- rupt; and if any sum shall have been really and bona fide naid by or 00 b- half of such apprentice to Ihe bankrupt as 1111 apprentice fee, ii shall Im lawful for the commissioners, upon proof iberenf, to order any sum to be paid to or for tiie use of such apprentice as they shall think reasonable, regard being had in estimating such sum lo thu amount of the sum so paid tiv or 00 behalf of such apprentice to Ihe bankrupt, ami to tbe tune during w hich such apprentice shall have resided with Ihe bankrupt previous to ths issuing of thecuuituiniau."

Sunday School Society for I r eland. On Wednesday last, a meeting was held in the Town Hal), Shrewsbury, for the purpose of forming an Auxiliary in Aid ol the above interesting Society. — At twelve o'clock, the hour, fixed- for the meeting, the Hall was filled by a most respectable assemblage, chiefly ladies; and, on the motion of RICHARD PHAYRE, Esq. the Rev. BRIAN HILL, of Weston, was unanimously called to the Chair.— The Chairman then stated the. purpose of the meeting; and Mr Phayre announced that Capt. J. W. Bazalgette, R. N Secretary of the London Society, would open the business of the day. Captain BAZALGETTE.— Sir,— Ladies and Gentle men,— As, in the building of Solomon's temple, there were those who bore burdens, and the hewers of wood, as well as the overseers of the work, so in the operations of every religious society, as there are diversities of gifts, nnd consequent apportionments of labour, this will account for my presence ou the occasion for which we are now assembled. The resolution which has been put into my hands is, " That, considering the Sunday School Society for Ireland as well adopted, by its constitution ami practice, to meet the necessities and improve the moral condition of the Peasantry of Ireland, a .•;" fv be now formed to be designated the Shrews- bmTand ® ° cify i,, rAill. 1,! f lhe Sunday School Society for I will not detain* you by saying why the Society » » . ^ eland looks to Shropshire for aid in the good work that it has undertaken. It will be sufficient to observe that there is no organized auxiliary Society existing here, and that to pass by Shrewsbury without an effort to establish one, would be but a p, oor comple- ment to that benevolence and religious feeling for which it is so justly celebrated. 1 shall leave to those who will follow me, and who have been honoured with a gift of utterance to which i have no preten- sion, 10% ddress your feelings in a way worthy of the cause to be this day advocated : be it my business in simplicity and godly sincerity to lay before you a few plain facts that will, I trust, be a. sufficient apology for my addressing you from my present situation. It is, Sir, the cause of England, Religious England, that demands your attention,- although Ireland, poor neglected Ireland, is the party that claims your aid. We have not to pass to the torrid regions, or to the frozen zone, to find the objects on whose behalf your benevolence is solicited; a few short hours wilt suffice to bring before you the sad and poor counte- nances of a race of men speaking the same language with yourselves, obeying the same laws, governed by the same Monarch, and professing to adore the same God, yet plunged in an abyss of misery and in a state of degradation worse than heathen dark- ness. To remedy this evil, the Irish Sunday School Society was established in the year 1809— a Society formed to promote the general good, not putting forth cat- chetical forms, but embracing all denomina- tions. To any one who knows Ireland it is unneces- sary to say that any other system must fail to produce a good effect. Not only the Protestant, but the Roman* Catholic, might in this Society become the patron of a system that promotes scriptural edu- cation unmixed with the prejudices of bigotry and intolerance. With an income of little more than £ 2000 a- year, a multiplicity of institutions have been established, which, like living sut » m* in a thirsty desert bless the wearied and fainting traveller, while they at the same time afford the cheering hope of viewing a more verdant and fruitful plain. In Ireland there aie 1702 schools, containing 150,831 scholars, who now hallow the Sabbath and conse- crate its sacred hours to fhe service of Almighty God; and who, but for this Society, might have been found wallowing in iniquity, or nr best in profaning ihe Lord's Day ; whilst 12,837 teachers of all ranks, from the peer to the peasant, gratuitously attend from Sabbath to Sabbath, and diffuse Ihe blessings of religious education around them. Surely, Sir, this calls for an Ebeuezerof gratitude from us to the livino God ! The Schools in Ireland have increased from" l50 to 200 annually ; and I wish that the funds of ibe Society had received a proportionate increase; but, it. is the want of that increase that has caused my presence here to- day ; for as the schools continue to increase, so must the necessity for augmented sub Kcriptions. Should it be contended by any, that these schools are only enumerated to make a sound upon paper, 1 am prepared to say that maps are to be seen iu the office of the Society, of every parish in which a school is established, and which will shew that the schools are realities and not fictions, As an auxiliary to that excellent Society established solely for the distribution of the Scriptures, the Irish Sunday School Society is most valuable; this will be apparent, when it is considered that the education it he - tows is a scriptural one, and that this is conferred on a mass of Roman Catholics, who would not other wise be allowed by their spiritual teachers to receive those Scriptures which they deem heretical. In the 16 years since its formation, the Sunday School Society* has distributed 105,713 Bibles and Testa ments, besides 421,813 spelling books with copious scriptural extracts. One feature iu the Report of this year is a remarkable one—( the last year was one in which au extraordinary excitement had acted upon the public mind): the feature 1 allude to is the decrease that, has taken p'ace in the number of the scholars, and in the number of copies of the scrip, tores that have been gratuitously distributed But I perceive another passage which stales thai there has been a considerable increase in the number of books sold: of Bibles, the number sold has been tripled The poverty of ihe Society will account for the distribution not having been so great; and the increase in the sale shews how great is the demand for the Scriptures by the population of the sister Island I will now. Sir, just, adveit to what has been already" effected in a moral point of view by Suu'day School Instruction in Ireland; and her I will refer to a document published by order of the House of Commons, shewing tiie state of crime in " Ireland for 1823, which, when compared with the progress of this Society in the corresponding dis. tricts, wil). prove that precisely as Religious I list rue. tion prevailed or otherwise, so did the increase or diminution of crime. [ Capt. Bazalgette here read several extracts, shewing the state of crime aud education in various districts of Ireland, which fully corro borated his assertion, that where crime was most prevalent, : he least facility of religious eduCa tion prevailed.] These are facts which must come home to the feelings of every one that has a heart to feel. The lively genius, and the intense anxiety of the people of Ireland ; o obtain instruction, may be illustrated by fact or two. [ Here Capt Bazalgette related an atiec. dole of a poor sweep io Dublin, who had been taught to read by another sweep, tlie sign- boards along th" streets serving for books, and his companion for tutor. Also ol a poor Irish peasant, whose anxietv to obtain a copy <> f the Scriptures in the native Irish tongue was such, that he a inally copied the Catholic Bishop Daniel's edition of the Testament at his leisure hours. J The desire for instruction on the part of the Irish peasantry Js such that it cannot be kept down. Tlie Irish nobles and gentry have con trilurte. d largely to works of charity : the people Ireland remit to England about £' 6000 per annum for religious purposes, while they receive for their own national institutions of a similar kind hula very inadequate return. By national institutions I mean such ns relate to her own land, and as embody the feelings of all classes of her people. Such are the institutions which ! conceive best adapted f. r the purposes of general good, and such are the objects of the institution that we are this day met to promote purpose is simply the diffusion of religious in fctnictioiJ at the least possible expense ; and who, when they look at these Schools, and at their 12,837 gratuitous teachers, but must, acknowledge that, with a fund of only £ 2000 a year, the purpose is most effectively attained. If those teachers were each to be paid but Is. per week for their trouble, it would cost £ 30,000 per annum. But, Sir, were I to proceed to detail the importance of religions education in Ireland as a bond of union between the rich and the poor, as calculated to soften down all feelings of asperity hy tlie kind affections thus brought into action, I should weary this assembly. Time would fail me were I to enumerate the catalogue of those, many of them high in rank and influence* who devote their time and their talents to His cause who has been emphatically sty led the King of kings, by becoming the humble teachers of these Sunday Schools. Having thus touched upon some of the topics connected with this interesting subject, ] ; » . m reminded of a question that has been put,— Why do not the Gentry of Ireland do more? I regret that more is not done. But those who know Ireland must know that the number of resident gent ry is comparatively few ; aud tha t a vast portion of her wealth is drawn from her. It must be known, however, that many who possess the means do most nobly come forward. One nobleman has given £ 4000 for the erection of a free church; another has bequeathed £ 2000 a year during the minority of his son for religious purposes; a third proprietor, who has struck £ 3000 a year off his rent- roll, has built 12 schools that he means to endow, and p;;\ s a gentleman whom he styles " nioral agent" £ 300 a year to Instruct the peasantry of his district. These are proofs that the Gentry of Ireland are not inactive in the cause. Our Society meddles not with what are termed the political evils of Ireland : our object is to do moral good upon scriptural grounds : we profess not to proselyte from one faith to another; but we do profess an endeavour to bring the Sons of Ireland from darkness to the light of truth, and to the knowledge of . our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Having thus endeavoured to shew the necessity and objects of Ihe Society, to what other point should I direct your attention. Shall I refer to tiie millions of the Irish nation who are scattered up and down as sheep that have no Shepherd, and of whom it may be said that no man careth for their souls ; — to a race of men, of whom it may he truly asserted, Here Satan's seat is? The poor Indian, who sees nothing beyond the natural horizon that bounds his contracted views has not half the difficul- ties to contend with: tell him of a Saviour's blood, aud he will cast away his household gods to the moles and to Ihe bats, and embrace the blessed hope so freely placed before him. If these thingsareso, and I challenge enquiry, I would appeal to your feelings on behalf of this Society. 1 do not mean to say that nothing has been done here for us: for, on referring to the Society's report^ this very couuty will be found fo have done much. In moving the resolution I have to propose, it does not fall to my lot to eulogize an individual to whose exertions we are so much in- debted : th. it will be the province of others that will follow me, and who will, as in duty bound, pay tribute to whom tribute is due. [ Capt. Baznigette here related an anecdote of a Gentleman who, at au anniversary meeting of the Bible Society in London, v^ s struck with the real necessity of exertions on behalf of Ireland,* Vvim bad consequently used bis individual exertions, and who had expressed his con- viction, that God had prospered his means in pro portion to those exertions ] Let us also— for I am not an Irishman— do likewise. We have wandered every part of the habitable globe to propagate the " knowledge of Scriptural truth; and the Lord has crowned our efforts with success. The time is now arrived when it becomes our bounden duty to com- municate tbe same blessing to those who are our kinsmen according to the flesh." I am no Irish- man — nor am I an orator— if I were, I would exhort in this cause till life and breath failed me. While, however, Sir, we would ascribe all honour and glory to God, from whom every good and every perfect gift is derived; we should increase our exertions. True it is, the result does not rest on the zeal or the purpose of any human institution ; for Paul may piaut, anid Apollo's may water, but God alone can give the increase. But Sir, the same record that, leaches us this, also assures us that if Paul does plant, and if A polios does water, God will give the increase. Therefore, u be ye stedfast, uimmoveable, always abounding in fhe work of the Lord, forasmuch as y e know that your labour, is not in vain in the Lord." I would just wish to mention to yon that a lady, to whom the Society is greatly indebted, has transmitted a donation of £ 5* accompanied by a letter stating that her very sincere and hearty beat wishes were for the prosperity . of tl[ e $' Uudny School Society for Ireland ; aud the fair writer adds, that the Society shall have her daily prayers. Many ihay not have this lady's means for temporal aid, but all can pray ; and the fervent prayer of the righteous availeth much. Let all aid to the best of their ability, and lie who accepted the widow's mite will assuredly, bless their benevolent exertions. — Capt. Bazalgette concluded by moving the fiist resolution.— See Adv. Rev. Mr. M'GHEE,— Mr. Chairman,— la rising as an Irishman to plead on behalf of this Society, I trust J shall be delivered from that embarrassment which must be naturally supposed to arise on addressing an assembly of English persons in favour of my native country! 1 trust I shall not be charged with over- weening zeal in thus presenting myself to your notice.' f trust it will be felt that a patriot for Ireland is a pa trior for England; and that, in plead- ing for one portion of the Empire, we do our best to promote, to consolidate, to cement those interests which can alone ensure the happiness of the whole. In calling your attention to this society, there are three particular points which I would press upon your consideration, First, ihe necessity that exists for the labours, of such an Institution in Ireland: Secondly, the nature of this Society as adapted to the wants of the ' peasantry of that country: and, lastly, why Ireland has some claims upon this country for support in such a cause. With respect to the necessity that exists for the exertions of such a Society in Ireland, one is at a loss to know where to commence: whether to advert to the wretchedness of her temporal condition, or to her state of spiritual degradation. If we refer to her temporal condition, we need only look at the wretched hovels, and the miserable scraps of land, which are indebted for their produce fo the fertility of a bountiful Provi- dence, rather than to the skill and industry of the poor inhabitants. We need not take you to Ireland to shew you, in looking over that unfortunate country, the comiortless state of the miserable people who ( ill those hovels. If it were later iu the year, many of them might be seen at the doors of your Town Hall, forming, however, but a small portion of the immense numbers that come to ask for leave to toil in your harvest — to take from your fertile fields, as the pribe of their labour, those earnings Which cannot' be wrung from their own. I would not ask you to stop them, and to enquire of them the cause of their distress. Look at their pallid countenance, their miserable garb, and compare them with the appear- ance of that most happy peasantry who crowd your streets on your market days; and then put your hands on your hearts and ask, if they are not entitled to every aid that can be contributed by fellow- subjects, fe! low- christians, fellow- countrymen ? But when we speak of their temporal necessities as a ground for the encouragement of this Society, some may say, What a fuss you make about scriptural education; will fhe Bible furnish the naked peasant with clothes, or feed the wretch who is famishing, or remove any other portion of that load of temporal misery under the burden of which tbe poor of that country have no long groaned ? We answer, No : we are not such Utopians as to expect such results from the circulation of the Bible alone among the poor of Ireland. But I will say, I pity that man who, while he contemplates the impoverished and impoverishing situation of a fellow- creature, forgets that he is an immortal being: I pity him who does not place the eternal interests of his fellow- creatures in the foremost ground. The man who does not do this may be whatever the world may please to call him : be may be a philosopher, a statesman, or a hero, but I say he is not a Christian. The man who does not know the religion of the Bible as the best solace for human woe, as the first ingredient iu the remedy for human misery, knows nothing of religion; aud I would say to him, Go home, and retire to your closet, search the scriptures, and pray for a birring on your meditations from Him who ordereth the hearts and wills of men. We do not say the Bible will give to the hungry the meat that perisheth ; but is it nothing to give him eternal life?— Is it nothing to replenish his mind with that exhilarating bowl which is filled with water drawn from living streams?- Is it nothing to clothe him with a garment that never perisheth ?— Is it nothing to lead him to an everlasting habitation, eternal in the heavens, and lhat fadetli not away ? Are these no blessings, no mercies, to poor and wretched men ?. But put- ting temporal views out of the question, and let us admit that the Bible will not shed temporal blessings over human woe: It must even then be admitted that it will do what neither wealth, nor power, nor even armies can effect: it will give patience under deprivation, consolation under human losses, and take away the fetters of that superstition which binds the human mind in Ireland, and which sinks deeper than iron into the soul: it will restore to the rank and dignity of ratioaal and immortal beings the wretched victims of this degrading superstition. The Bible can do this. And, whether these bless- ings, these mercies, are needed by the peasantry of " relaud, let every man answer for himself who has taken into his consideration the situation and circum- stances of that country. I will not refer you to istory, I will not ask you to look at the records of past ages ; hut I will ask every one to look at those facts w hich he has heard or has read in the news- papers and other publications of his own ( lay : I will ask him whether in the history of any nation* he can find the record of such rebellions, and treasons, and murders, and house- burnings, and burglaries, as may be found in the newspapers of Ireland for the lost 30 years. The Legislature has, session after session, passed coercive enactments, which have as regularly been violated and evaded. Is not this a state of " things that demands the most serious consi- deration ? 5 will not enter into an argument as to the cause of this state of affairs. But I will ask one question, on ihe answer to which, 1 think-, all argu- ments on the point, must rest. Do you believe- that the instigators, the promoters, the perpetrators of crimes like these, can have been educated in or have lived under the influence and instruction of vital Christianity ? I am sure yon will say, No. I appeal then to the religious principles of this country iu behalf of the Sunday School Society for Ireland, which has for its simple object to give a scriptural education to the peasantry of Ireland, to raise them from the wretched situation in which generations of crime and misery and insubordination have plunged them, and to- bring them to a sense of the duty incumbent upon them of serving aud living in the fear of their Christ and their God. In thus calling upon your attention, 1 would implore you not to suppose that my address is mere declamation, or that in thus calling upon you to support this Sjociety lam merely speaking- with the zeal and fervour of iin Irishman: I would refer you to a paper which 1 now hold in my hand, which gives you a compara- tive view of the State of Ireland, on comparing the habits of the population of several of its provinces, in which this Society has established itself ; and it will be seen, that in all those districts where the Sunday Schools are the most numerous, the moral habits of the people are proportionately superior, 1 while the ack of Schools will be found to accompany the presence of a vicious population, [ Here the Rev. Gentleman read several ex- tracts confirmatory of his statement.] Yon .' will find thai in those provinces where Sun- day Schools are rejected, despised, and opposed, crime stalks forth in itVpiost hideous and appalling forms. VVith these facts before your eves, is it too much in ns to ask you to give a small portion of your wealth and your attention to this Society ? Let me next advert to the nature of the Society asadapted lo the wants of the peasantry of Ireland; A Society to do good in Ireland must be ready to embrace all classes, to assist the humblest and weakest as well as the most exte nded efforts, and willing to supply; the waists of all applicants. This Society does so. There is not the most insignificant school that it will not assist — there is not a school, howjever large, that it will not supply with alphabets, with spelling books, witn testaments and with bibles. A Society, to do good there, must interfere as little as possible with the prejudices of the people. The Sunday School Society for Ireland opens its arms to all persuasions, it does not interfere with any one's religion, and it distributes the Bible to all. It does not allow its teachers to interfere in modes of worship: the Minis- ter of the Established Church is assisted in teaching his people, and the Roman Catholic Priest in teach- ing his flock, as far as ever they can go by the use of the Bible without note or comment. This is a Society against which no valid objection can be found, as its operations are confined to the assisting in keeping that day holy which ought in all places to lie dedicated to the Lord : it interferes not with the labour or occupation of those who receive its assistance: its sole purpose is to educate and train up ' he population of Ireland in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. There are many individuals, who, while they are convinced of the beneficial tendency of Sunday Schools, yet fearing the conse- quences of overheated zeal, and party spirit, and party misrepresentation, andnot knowing the persons by whom this Society is patronised, may very pro- perly hold back from assisting it; but to such individnnls I am glad that I can say I have a paper in my hand that contains- what must remove every objection : it is a list of the Patrons of this Society. I shall imt refer. to the names of the Right Reverends and Reverends which appear in it; but T will refer to the names of two individuals, countrymen of your own, and Whose names, when the circumstances under which they visited Ireland" are considered, must carry the greatest weight: I mean the Right Hon. Robert Peel arid the Right Hon. Charles Grant, both of whom have held the office of Chief Secretary for Ireland, and both of whom, deeply impressed with the importance of its objects and the value of this Society, have accepted the office of its Guardians. Tbey have thus pledged not only their personal but their official characters in its support; and both these Gentlemen are decided opponents on the great question of Catholic Emancipation. What more can be necessary to prove that our Society does not interfere with the prejudices of the people, and that it embraces alone their best interests. I fear lam trespassing too long upon your attention ; 1 fear thai, as an Irishman, my feelings for my country may induce me, to weary your patience.; but still I trust that what you have heard has been felt. Sir, I need scarcely mention that, by Hie aid of machinery; the shores of the United Kingdom have been almost approximated: but in this Society, we have aula ohiue that will tend much more to facilitate that approximation— it is that machine which can a lost approximate our feelings, our hearts. If, Sir, I were to choose a spot in England on which to make my appeal on behalf of this Society, it should be the very spot on which I now stand. If I were to choose a body of people in England to whom I would make that appeal, I would choose, Sir, the audience by which I am now surrounded, the inhabitants of the capital of the first county in England lhat ail Irish- man would reach on his way from his native shore. Let me beseech you so to act, that every well- prin- cipled Irishman may hail, on your confines, the appearance of your county— that he may say, Here is a county that feels for and assists my poor country- men. You know how effectual are the opinions of the good in answering the objections of the ill. disposed. Let me beseech you to come forward and set an example on our beliaif. I would beseech you to set up the standard of your opinions on high, against that abominable principle which would shut up the Volume of Inspiration from that mass of benighted people who yet are to be judged by its decrees. The interests of ihe whole of this christian- nation are the same— Ireland and. England must stand or fall together; and 1 would appeal- to any man who knows Ireland, whether it is not beyond' the power of the Legislature and of the Government to improve Ireland, unless that mass of moral guilt which overwhelms her he removed, unless you regenerate the land by such means as are furnished by this Society,— The Rev. Gent, concluded by moving the 2d resolution. The Rev. EDWARD BATHER moved the third resolution. Rev. JOHN RICHARDS.— It was not my intention, Sir, to say any thing on the present occasion. I must, however, now beg leave to remark, that it. has long been my settled conviction, that one of the chief thing's wanting to better the state of Ireland is a due attention lo the education of the poor; and as that is the especial object of this Society, it appears to me to be well calculated to effect its great and good purpose. I trust that hy liberal subscriptions and active efforts, it will be enabled to accomplish this design. The powerful appeals which the Gentlemen who have preceded me have addressed to this as- sembly, I have heard with admiration and delight and they have made, I trust, a deep impression on all present as to the strong claim which Ireland has upon us for our efforts in her behalf.— Mr. Richards concluded by moving- the 4th resolution. VV. HARLBY, Esq.— Mr. Chairman, 1 beg leave to second that motion ; and having heard what has been stated by the Gentlemen who have addressed the meeting, as to the state of Ireland, I miist say that I am, able, from my own personal knowledge of that country, to vouch for the truth of their assertions. Rev. RICHARD POPE ( from Ireland).— The resolu- tion, Mr. Chairman, that I have the honour to pro- pose is, " That, whilst this Meeting would desire to avoid all eulogy nnsuited to the present occasion, or that might distress the feelings of any ; they cannot withhold their just tribute of grateful acknowledg- ment lo that Benevolent Individual* in the vicinity of Shrewsbury, who, by her unwearied,, zealous, and effectual labours in behalf of Ireland, has so mate- rially aided the Funds of the Parent Society; and that she be requested to continue her valuable exer- tions." The first part, Sir, of this resolution observes, that u this meeting would desire to avoid all eulogy uusuited to the present occasion;" aud, Sir, if an humble individual might be allowed to state bis opinion, it' appears to ihe that when we meet we ought to have an eye single ai) d only devoted to the glory of God: our motto should be " Not unto us, not unto u*, O Lord, but unto thy name be the MioPigott praise." Still, Sir, erery one must heartily coincide with the next part of this resolution, and pay their just tribute of grateful acknowledgment to that Benevolent Individual, who, by her unwearied, zeal, ous, and effectual labours in behalf of Ireland, has. so materially aided the Funds of the Parent Society." Tis true, Sir, that our chief and our best praises are due to Him from whom every good and every perfect gift cometh ; yet, Sir, we are enjoined to give fi tribute, to w hom tribute is due ;" but w hen, Sir, we see a single individual, alone and single- handed, sustain so great a cause, I, as an Irishman, should deem it most unpardonable if this meeting were to separate without returning our unfeigned thanks for those great exertions. The latter part of the resolution is, 44 That she he requested to continue her valuable exertions." To this I am sure every heart will cheerfully respond; and I trust I may add that her fair countrywomen will no- tallow the labour any long- er to rest upon a single individual, but that they wiil form a Ladies'Auxiliary Association, as 1 have inva- riably found the Ladies the most efficient auxiliaries in every case of christian benevolence. And when I call upon my fair audience to second these efforts I would state that full one half of those educated in the Sunday Schools of Ireland are females; and I would remark that Christianity has done much for their sex, by promulgating that sacred code by which theywere placed upon a level with the other sex, and which has opened to them all those civil and reciprocal benefits which the depravity of other systems had deprived them of. I would further add that, one grand aim of the Sunday School Society for Ireland is to fit these female peasants for the important duties which they will . probably be called to fill as mothers and parents of families. 1 feel, Sir, restrained, and yet encouraged lo pro- ceed, in my observations. In the first place,! stand in the presence of Britons, who, in the time of Ireland's distress, generously poured forth of their abundance on her behalf; and another ground for my encouragement is, that 1 stand iu the presence of many of those who have already contributed in aid of the cause for which we are assembled. I feel restrained, because little need be said to stimulate those whose liberality and generosity is already conspicuous; hut, Sir, I feel encouraged, because those individuals who have contributed, will pardon a native Of Ireland for trespassing upon their atten- tion for a few minutes on behalf of his poor country- men. There can be no doubt that all the mischiefs, ali the evils of Ireland are not to be attributed lo the want of education ; neither can there be a doubt that all those mischiefs and evils are not to he removed by religious instruction. Wc should delight to see our absentees return to spend their money among our peasantry,— lo see manufactures estab- lished in our towns,— and toseeour mineral resources properly cultivated. But, Sir, while others attend to these objects, and while we would wish God to speed their efforts, it appears lo us that a religious education, grounded on the Scriptures oi God, must form an important feature in any plan that shall have for its object the amelioration of the state of Ireland ; it appears to us that a judicious plan of instruction, founded upon the basis of Divine Truth, is well fitted to the temporal circumstances, and well calculated to raise the tone and condition, of ihe peasantry of Ireland. Education imparts a sense of power and independence to those w ho enjoy it, that will not allow them to remain iu that abyss of pau- perism which ignorance create s and peoples. Edu- cation opens a prospect of that which is to come, and will press upon its possessors to aspire lo higher objects than those of time and sense. Ireland, Sir, is at present comparatively calm ; but, Sir, we cannot calculate upon that calm continuing for any very long period, unless we put it upon a firm and immoveable basis. The strong arm of power may resist for a time the beavings of the volcano; but we must embowel the turbulent mass, we must tear out the burning lava* and plant tranquillity in its stead, unless we are prepared to see it force its way out at some future opportunity. Scriptural education ap- pears to be the means best calculated to produce peace and tranquillity. What could yon do vviih an ignorant and a deluded people if an hour of trial should arrive? Could you reason with them ? No : all eloquence would he lost upon them ; and, goaded and infuriated by demagogues, the exertions of Government would be inadequate to the task of restraining them. Will they, deceived and misled by such miscreants, lie inclined to wait patiently for tile gradual amelioration of their condition; or will they not rather join in any insurrection, and wage war without remorse against property and life? But, Sir, Scriptural education places loyalty on a proper basis. It says to all under its influence, " Be ye subject to the higher powers,"—" The powers that be are ordained of God,"—" Love the brotherhood." The same inspired authority also enjoins all to " Honour the Ring." In proof of the value of Scriptural Education in rendering its pos- sessors loyal subjects* I beg leave to refer to Scot- land. We know that some few years ago an Insur- rection took place iu Glasgow ; and did not the knowledge derived from education present an insu- perable barrier to the spread of the Contagion? A gentleman in Scotland made inquiries as to the persons engaged in those riots; and be found that they were mostly persons who bad been snatched from the parochial schools of lhat country when only 7 or 8 years of age, and had been placed iu the Cotton factories before they, had acquired the know, ledge to be derived, from a scriptural education. Although" taught to read and. write, they were not acquainted with that saving' knowledge which is imparted to every one th it believe! h. The temporal interests of Ireland are matters of importance that deserve the best attention of every philanthropist and every patriot; but, as a Rev Gentleman has already observed, they are nothing compared to the consi- derations which must arise from a knowledge of the higher interests which are connected with the events that are hurrying us to eternity : a few more suns, and a few more moons, and we are destined to pass into the grave, arid to that tribunal from whose decree there is no appeal. We ask, then, what pro vision they have made in Ireland for imparting to those entrusted to their charge a knowledge of the Scriptures of God? [ The Rev. Gentleman here produced printed copies of several tracts and catechisms, published by Dr Doyle, Dr. Young, and other Roman Catholics, for the use of their flocks, aud from which he read various extracts tending to shew the degrading and superstitions character of the Roman Catholic Re. ligioti. Among other facts it appeared that in some of their catechisms the 2d commandment is omitted and the 9th split into two ; and among the opinions inculcated by these writers are— That great merit attaches to the abstinence from forbidden meats during Lent; that all out of the pale of the Roman Catholic Church are Infidels, Hereticks, and Excom- municated Persons ; that in ihe Sacrament of the Mass Cliiist himself is offered under the appearance of bread and wine ; that the Mass is offered for the living and for the dead ; that the Mass affords a satis, faction for the sins of souls in purgatory ; that good actions deserve a reward from God, aud may lie of service in satisfying for the sins of others as well as of those who perform them, & c.] Now ( continued Mr Pope) do we believe that Christ suffered once for all; that he'sitteth at the right hand of God ; tliat as tlie tree falleth, so it shall be; and that as we die, so shall eternity find us? Do we believe these things, and shall we not con- demn such instructions? Shall we not be compelled to say that such instructors are blind leaders of the blind? Shall we not condemn that tenet which asserts that an atonement can be off'eredijy man, not only for the sins of the living but also for those who are, as they pretend, suffering iri a place of human invention, which they style purgatory? My friends, do we deserve the name of Protestants, and shall we quietly acquiesce in a mass of people being left to the sole leaching of those who can implant such ideas? Do webelieve that matt is justified by faith, without the deeds of the law ?— do we profess to hold that faith upon which the Reformation was estab- lished ?•— and shall we connive at a system of instruc- tion which teaches such tenets as these books that I hold in my hand, and which, inculcate the idea that sal vation is alone to be found within the pale of the Church to which they belong? Such, however, is the system of instruction pursued by tbe Catholic Priesthood. If you believe, that except a man be born again before he pass the gates of Death, he shall not enter the kingdom of heaven, then 1 beseech yon* as fellow- christians, to assist us in establishing a system of Instruction having for its basis the law and the testimony, and founded upon the rock of scriptural truth. But it is not only upon the ground of the false system of instruction pursued in Ireland that I this day appeal to you : I would advert to the opinions and practices which such a system on the part of Ihe Roman Cathojics has generated— to their holy wells, to their pilgrimages, and to their other superstitions. ! [ The Rev. Gentleman then related two instances of horrid superstition on the part of the lower orders , of Roman Catholics, numbers of whom believed that certain of their Priests had the power of working miracles, and after their death had taken the clay and earth from their graves, which they had mixed up with water, and had swallowed, in the persuasion that the very earth which surrounded their remains was endued with properties that would benefit those , who thus partook of it ! J , , . In conclusion ( said Mr. Pope), I may he allowed , to refer to tbe present period as a period peculiarly suited for our exertions, as a time peculiarly favour- able to the promotion of a system of amelioration founded upon a moral and scriptural system x> f education? The Legislature, I need not say, has been pleased in its wisdom to withhold what is'called Catholic Emancipation. I need not say that the voice of the people has also been declared against such Emancipation : nor need I observe that ihe Roman Catholic population of Ireland will naturally feel hurt at iheir petitions being rejected. Here, then, is an opportunity of shewing them that Where you can relieve them, without compromising those constitutional principles upon which your Govern- ment is established, you are ready to put forth every exertion in their behalf. Lastiy4 I would say, Ireland forms an important portion of the British Empire: the Sons of Erin have led your armies to batile aud to glory — the Sous of Erin have been leaders iu your Senate— the Sons of Erin have been foremost on all occasions of danger, and have freely laid down Iheir lives in your defence. Ireland may be justly styled the Right Hand of England ; and surely yoo would wish lo keep that hand closely attached to your body Would you not, when England, Ireland, and Scot- land shall be called to battle, wish to see their con- nection cemented by the strongest ties— and in what < vay can they he so firmly united, as by a chain, the rivets of which shall be formed out o'f a system of scriptural and moral benefits, founded upon a belief that salvation alone is to be found in ihe atoning Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. That the Rose, the Thistle, and the Shamrock may be so united, under the blessing of God, ought to be our most fervent prayer; for then, indeed, would Great Britain truly stand forth tbe glory and admiration of the world.— Mr. Pope moved the 5th resolution. Thanks were then voted to THE CHAIRMAN, who expressed his acknowledgments. He said he always fell most happy in contributing his endeavours to ihe amelioration of any of his feliow- creatures ; and he hoped Proud Salopians would be most proud on this occasion to second the exertions of the Society. Capt. BAZALGETTE announced that the Rev Edward Bather had given a donation of £ 10 lo the Society, and had accepted the office of Vice- Presi- dent ; and that there was no doubt the Lord Bishop of the Diocese would accept the office of Patron. On the motion of fhe Rev. JOHN RICHARDS, thanks were voted to the Rev. Richard Pope and Captain Bazalgette, for their attendance and assistance ; aud Ihe meeting then separated.— A collection was made at the doors, w hich amounted to upwards of £ 11. © ontemporari) literature. No. VI. DRAMATIC TABLE TALK. ; or, Anecdotes, Scenes, and Adventures connected with the Theatres and Theatricalt, from the Age of Shuk. speare to our own Dat/ c, by R RYAN, with an original Essay on the Art of Acting, by TALMA, with many Engravings. 3 vols. £ 1. 1*. The splendid success of the Work called ' WEST- MINSTER HALL,' and the equal popularity of another modern Work, under the title of ' LAM- BETH and the VATICAN,' seem to have paved the way for a similar production on the ever fascinating subject of the stage. We may argue wiih the La wvt'i's, and lie instructed by the Divines, but wc crack our sides while we are brought into contact with ail that is curious, eccentric, and original connected wiih the History of the Stage, and the geniuses who have figured upon it, or written for it. In truth, Mr. Ryan has produced a festival of dramatic pic- nic, which will never weary the reader ; aud, like the bee, he has collected iioney from every source, and often from books little likely to afford it. In this respect Dramatic Table ' Talk is the actual quintessence of this charming department of literature, and in this declaration we sufficiently bespeak the character, quality, and popularity of the Work. The fac- siuiiles of Autographs, and the various engraving, in keeping with the text, and, in 110 small degree, to the value of these volumes, add lo their general interest; while they bespeak the Editor's extraordinary diligence in assembling eo many rarities. Research is combined with taste, and taste with delicacy, for we observe no article- calculated lo offend modesty, though Mr Ryan has introduced all kinds of characters to his readers, and iu all tile situations, seiious and comic, in which the heroes and heroines of the sock and buskin appear before the world. It is proper to add, that the Work is not merely collection of rare personal anecdotes, but throughout mingled with criticisms on the pro ductions of the fstage* and with curious trails of the history and progress of the dramatic art in England and other countries. HOUSE OF COMMONS- MONDAY. Several grants were made for Ihe purposes of education in Ireland, and for public works in that country ; and Mr. PEEL observed that the portion of public works already completed had been extremely beneficial, as tending to the civilization of the wild- est and least accessible parts of Ireland. KINO'S . M ES3AG. E. The CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER moved the taking into consideration the Report upon the King's Message, for an allowance ou behalf of the young Princess of Kent and Prince George of Cumberland. Sir JOHN WROTTESLEY took the opportunity to dis. claim the introduction of the Duke of York's debts into a former debate, which had been ascribed to him by some of the newspapers. Such a gratuitous interference with his Royal Highness's affairs he for himself could not but regard as a- great presumption aud indecency. Mr. HUME opposed the grant to the Prince of Cumberland altogether. Dr. LUSHINGTON moved an amendment, omitting the name of the Duke of Cumberland, so as to have the government of the young Prince, and the appli- cation of the grant, in the hands of the King-. The learned Doctor spoke in a more temperate style of the Royal Duke than in the former Debate, and bis example was imitated in this respect by Mr. BROUGHAM and Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, who sup. ported the amendment. Mr. CRKEVY was, however, as vehement iu his hostility as heretofore. Sir G. ROSE ( who had been for four years Minister at Berlin) and Sir W. CONGREVE ( who had but just returned from the Continent) bore testimony to the high honour reflected upon the Court and people of England by the conduct of the Duke and Duchess of Cumberland in their present residence.— The CHAN- CELLOR OF THR EXCHEQUER and Mr. CANNING put it to the. lion, members, whether the manner in which the Duke of Cumberland had been treated by Par- liament, and the style in which he had been spoken of in that. House, were not quite sufficient grounds for his wish to reside abroad, which was the only offence that even calumny conld breathe against him • The Right Hon. Gentlemen expressed their perfect willingness to introduce into the bill a clause enjoin- ing the education of the Prince in England. Doctor LUSHINGTON withdrew his amendment upon a suggestion by Mr. BROUGHAM, and the House divided upon the original motion.— Ayes, 120— Noes, 97.— Majority for the resolution, 23. HOUSE OF LORDS- TUESDAY. CORN LAWS. Their Lordships went into a Committee on the Bills for allowing the bonded com to be brought into the market, and for allowing the free importation of grain from Canada. The Earl of MALMESBURY moved that the Com- mittee be instructed- lo strike outall the parts relative to the admission of Canadian Corn into this country, as it would otherwise tend to encourage the smug- gling of United States' grahi into this country, by way of Canada. The Canadians, too, would export alt their own grain, and buy for themselves from the United States. This would not only injure our agri- culturists, but would render Canada dependent upon the United States. The Earl of LIVERPOOL defended that part of the measure which allowed the importation of Canadian corn into this country as most valuable, and argued upon tbe importance of adopting the most liberal system towards our Colonies, at a time when we were recognizing the independence of those of other States, which had thrown off' their allegiance on account of the commercial disabilities to which they had been subjected. The amendment of the Earl of Malmesbury was rejected by a majority of 39 to 34. The Earl of LAUDERDALE, the Earl of LIMERICK, the Earl of ENNISKILLEN, and Lord REDESDALE, spoke in strong terms against the attacks which were made, and were about tp be made, upon the agricultural interests of the United Kingdom, by the partial alterations already effected, and by those which were proposed to be effected, in the Com Laws HOUSE OF COMMONS- TUESDAY. Mr. WILLIAMS presented some pf tiiions complaitw ing of delays in the Court of Chancery, and he entered at great length into tbe alleged existing abuses of that Court.— Tbe SoLicrroR GENERAL and Mr. PEF. L replied to some of the spceifie charge? brought forward by Mr. Williams; and the latter gentleman intimated lhat measures were now iiff progress for remedying any real abuses in that. Conrt', The Bills for making additional allowances to'the Duchess of Kent and Duke of Cumberland were> brought iu and read a first time. | Bt0 « ilanc0U0 Intelligence* It is stated, that so anxious was the King in the result of the late debate on the Catholic Question, lhat he commanded the Lord Chancellor to repair to him immediately on its termination, at whatever hour it might be, to acquaint him therewith. A Mr. Coventry hos published a book to prove that Loid George Sackville was the real author of Junius : his proofs are staled lo be very strong. The valuable and extensive collection of coin, and medals belonging to the late King, which his present Majesty has with such munificence be- stowed, along with the librarv, was ou Saturday removed from Carlton House to the British Museum, The Marquis and Marchioness of Hastings arrived in tuwn ou Monday from the Mediter- ranean. A terrible accident happen?;! at ftennes on the 19th ultimo. As some soldiers of the garrison were preparing fireworks for the celebration of the coronation of Ihe King of France, a spark fill on the powder in the apartment. The explosion was dreadful. The roof of the house was thrown across the river, the trees of a public walk were lorn up by the roots, the windows of the neigh- bouring houses were shattered at the distance of three hundred paces, and about sixty of the artil- lerymen were killed or wounded. The bodies of four or five Were buried under the ruins. Some were saved in an extraordinary manner, being thrown into the air, and alighting on their feet with slight injuries, in the" neighbouring river, in gardens, in the streets, and on the tops of houses. Every body knows that, within the last 50 years a great revolution has been effected in the political situation of India ; but it is not quite so notorious, that, within the last 15 years, an equally great revolution has been silently effected in its eonlw mercial situation. Formerly we imported from that country ils muslins and its porcelain ; now we are exporting fo it our muslins and our por- celain. A gentleman of Nottingham undertook, on Monday week, to shoot at and hit 12 penny and 2 halfpenny picces, thrown up singly, at a distance of 15 yards: aud afterwards at 6 small stones, none of which were larger than a walnut. He did not miss one; and the number of shot which struck the 20 pieces was 351, SOCIETY FOR SUPERSEDING C'LIMEINW BOYS.— On Friday a highly res pec tab e Meeting- took place at the city of London Tavern, of the friends of the above humane Institution, which has for its object the superseding the necessity of Climbing Boys, by encouraging a new method of sweeping ehimuies, and for improving the condi- tion of children and others employed by chimney sweepers. The Meeting was attended by a numer- - ous assemblage of ladies, the greater part of whom was composed of persons professing the opinions of the Society of Friends.— VV. Tooke, Esq read the. report.— It stated the Committee were desirous of being enabled to supply machines gratis, or at half price, according to circumstances, to all persons, chimney sweepers and others, willing honestly to adopt them. The Committee were indebted to the exertions of many able and benevolent coad- jutors, and to none more than to Mr James Mont- gomery, of Sheffield, who, by his publication of " The Chimney Sweeper's Friend and Climbing' Boy's Album," dedicated by permission to his Majesty, had, in one little volume, comprised the whole history, progress, and claims of the Society, and farther enforced those claims, both in prose and verse, wiih all that pleasing pathos for which he is so eminently distinguished, and in which he has been assisted by several kindred minds. The main object of the Committee in the first instance, was to suppress the. abominable practice of sending' children up cbimnies bv promoting- the irse of a machine called the " Sk'an liscope."— Sir F Bur- dett addressed the Meeting, and stated, that he had for many years felt the deepest interest in th* objects of this Society, and from the attention he bad paid to its progress, felt, the warmest admire at ion of the labours of the Committee in so just and humane a cause. l| e hoped that by their exertions, a feeling of commiseration would be excited iu th « public mind towards the unfortunate objects for whose relief the Society had been formed : he was at a loss to account for that dormant state of . huma- nity which appeared to exist with the British Public upon this particular subject, although so sensitive upon every other occasion. Much had been said npop the enormities committed in the nefarious traffic on the coast of Africa ; but whilst this sub- ject had engaged so much interest, there was one nearer home which must be considered still more appalling— the bartering of children for that most unwholesome calling. There was not one class of human beings whose cry to help them was so dis- regarded as that of these " little beings, naturally the most lovely, and rendered by oppression aim suffering, the most shockingly disgusting of al) others" He would bring to the recollection of many present, the fact that there existed a very few years ago, the necessity of paying persons t « cleanse the streets of the Metropolis; circumstances had however so changed, that now this employment was found so profitable, as the means of obtaining' manure that, instead of parishes pay ing for this ac8 of cleanliness, the contractors came forwar !, anx- ious by a payment of a premium, to obtain the ex- clusive privilege of collecting such material: FT « f considered that by a judicious arrangement, th © more valuable article of soot might be devoted to defray the expenses not only of cleansing the fliifs, but by the exclusive employment of persons wh « " used the machinery, it would very much coivribute to lessen the evil which the Society was formed t © counteract. The Hon. Baronet. concluded by mov- ing a resolution—*" That the present laws in force regulating the apprenticing and treatment of ap- prentices to sweeps, were inefficient to the pre- vention of those cruelties and enormities which attend the present employment of children as sweeps."— The Earl of Morley seconded this re- solution, which was carried ; as were a variety of resolutions ; and it was finally arranged that a public meeting- should take place ou the 1st of May, next year, to receive the report of the Committee. JAUNDICE.— It cannot be too generally knowa that in this distressing complaint ihe Genuine Dr. Bateman's Pectoral Drops have effected cures when other means have entirely failed, as will appear hy the following well attested case:—" A few years since I was afflicted with the Jaundice, and after trying several ineffectual means to obtain relief, I was advised to try DICEY'S Bateman's Drops, by taking one spoonful of which at bed- time I found myself surprisingly relieved, and after a few doses the yellowness of the skin and all other unpleasant symptoms went off", and I became as well as ever, and have had no return of the complaint till lately, when by taking two or three doses a second cure was effected. The safety as well as efficacy of this medicine I am fully convinced of, having recom- mended it to at least forty persons, who have all experienced the same happy effects : and as its real value in the above complaint, does not appear to be sufficiently known, I feel it incumbent upon me to request you will make my case as public as pos- sible, for the benefit of the afflicted, as by the use of it thousands may be relieved al a trifling- expense, and with a facility not to be equalled bv any other medicine.— I am, & c.
