COUNTY ELECTIONS.— The Select Committee'Ap- pointed to take info cousidernlinn the mode of taking the poll ut county elections, and to report lo the House of CoiiHiions whether anv measures can be taken to diminish the expenses incurred by candidates nt such elections, have just given in tbeir report. Thev state that they have taken into consideration the ( natters referred to them ; and being of opinion that the prin- cipal expense at contested elections for counties arises from the conveyance of voters froilr their places of residence to the county town, and their maintenance while there, they applied themselves to au endeavour to remove, or very much diminish, this expense. T- hr » best aud most constitutional" Weans of ejecting this object Appear in their opinion to he, lhat the poll should be taken in different places in the county, so that no freeholder should he compelled to travel more than ten or twelve miles from ibe place of bis freehold to the place where bis vote would be taken. In order to | remove all doubts as lo the legality of voles at the time of polling, they recommend the establishment of au authentic register of all persons who have a riaht to vole for any county. The plan wl ich the Committee' propose for the establishment nf this register is, that twice in every year the collectors of taxes in each parish shall require Ibe occupiers of land to return the names of Iheir landlords, being freeholders; and that a list shall l/ e formed from these returns, to which the names of any persons claiming to he freeholders shall be added at a vestry specially held for that purpose. That when tbe list shall have beeu so corrected, it shall be transmitted to the Clerk of the Peace, and by him 1 entered in the Register of the Freeholders of the I county, and that every possible degree of publicity | shall lie given to this register. A very extraordinary circular, addressed by one I of tbe Directors of the Bank of England to certain I of the Country Banks, suggesting that, in lieu of j Country Bankers issuing their own local notes, the notes of the Bank of England should be altogether substituted, has been made public.— The party I proposes, that iu lieu of the present returns of profit I on country bank notes ( estimated by the projector I at 2| per cent.) certain allowances should be made to them by the Bank of England!— This attempt to 1 feel the. national pnlse as to the public opinion upon the question— whether tbe Bank of England shall monopolize the whole currency of the kingdom ? has been met by deserved reprobation.— The nation is 1 already sufficiently restricted by monopolies of various kinds, without having the living principle of every agricultural and commercial transaction placed wholly in the hands of Bauk Stock Proprietors — who, tor aught that can be known to the contrary, may, at a future period, be in a great degree com- posed of persons inimical to the best interests aud 1 institutions of 1 lie Empire. The recent decisions of the Law Courts, declaring any one shareholder of a Joint Stock Company liable for tbe entire debts of tbe concern, have spread dismay throughout Loudon, amongst bona fide sub- scribers, as well as jobbers, and have proved a rich I harvest for the lawyers. Tbe instant a demand is I made against a Cortipany, the attorney employed to enforce it gets a notice of action lithographed, and • sends a copy to every shareholder whom he can find out, and does not fail to secure a hundred or two of six. and- eightpences at the outset. On ^ Thursday, the 17th ult. a gentleman, whose only | concern with oue. of the Companies ( tbe Patent , Steam Washing Company) was the circumstance of , his name having appeared among the applicants for s shares, received a packet containing ten lawyer's . I letters, demanding payment of ten'different bills upon that Company, amounting in the whole to the sum of £ 1,291. ( is. lid. He was threatened with ten different aetioiis for the payment of the ten ' bills, if they were not discharged iu a day or two. In cases of Seduction and Breach of Promise, the Judges hnve lately laid down two very wholesome I rules. The one is, that where the complaining s parents, while encouraging tho addresses of young men to ( heir daughters, do not inform the parents of , ( he young men of their proposals or intentions, the parties shall not be entitled to damages. The other is, that parents cannot substantiate a claim to com- pensation, if they have been so careless as to leave their daughters sitting tip with their suitors for hours after themselves and the rest of the family have retired to bed. The last judicial dictum, especially, will do much good. There are hundreds of families in the country who have allowed the custom, partly through heedlessness and partly through precedent. Many a girl will be saved by putting a stop to it. The proclamation of Lord Cochrane, as Lord High Admiral of Greece, has been received. It states, that all animosities among the Chiefs are at an end. The other part of the proclamation relates to tbe brilliant prospect of Greece, and to her success in arms. A person who has for eight years been employed as clerk and shopman to a tobacconist iu this citv, was lately taken into custody under the following circumstances-— He was observed to make regular visits to a banking- house in Leith to deposit money in bis own name, chiefly ou the days when business was suspended in Edinburgh.— On Thursday, the 3d May, he made one of these visits, and it having been afterwards accidentally discovered who he was — for lie was not previously known there— the cir- cumstance reached the ears of his master, who, oa inquiry, found that he had deposited in different banks in this city and in Leith, no less than £ 3,680, i a sum which his whole salary tripled would not j have amounted to, aud it was understood he had no other legitimate source of income. In order to discover what means bad been resorted to, a mark was put u pou certain notes, Which not being produced when he accounted to iiis master at night, his person was examined, and the notes so marked were 1 found in his pocket. The individual charged with j these enormous depredations was a person of sober, J attentive, und rather parsimonious habits, which had | completely lulled suspicion on the part of his J employer.— Edinburgh Observer. | On Friday, twenty- six cotton spinners from Old- I ham aud its neighbourhood were brought up to the Court of King's Bench to receive sentence, having been convicted at the last Lancashire Assizes of riotously assembling, assaulting other spinners, and j preventing them from working iu tbeir respective I manufactories. The Court sentenced tliein to six, I nine, and twelve months' imprisonment, according to the magnitude of the offence of which they had I severally beeu found guilty. They are to be kept j to hard labour, and afterwards to give their personal securities for good behaviour An old woman named Harris, who kept a shop at Tinhead, in Wiltshire, and had always pleaded extreme poverty, was applied to a short time since, to subscribe towards the relief of the distressed manufacturers.— She replied that she was surprized they should think, of calling upon her, when she was almost starving herself: and such was the effect that the application had upon her, arising from tha idea that some one supposed her possessed of money, that she was taken suddenly ill, and within a very few days breathed her last. On removing a stone iu her shop, upwards of a thousand pounds wa3 discovered concealed in the floor !! TheChilteru Hundreds, so frequently mentioned as being accepted by Members of the House of 1 Commons, when they wish to vacate their seats, are divisions of counties made by King Alfred, and now , annexed to the Crown, although they still retain 1 their peculiar courts. The stewards of these courts are appointed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and their salaries are twenty shillings per annum ; this sum, however, small as it is, being derived from au office under the Crown, is sufficient to disqualify any person who accepts it from retaining his seat, unless re- elected. Accepting the stewardship of the Ghiltefii Hundreds, is, therefore, merely a formal manner of resigning a seat, when a Member wishes to retire from Parliament.

GENTLEMEN, fShould be ungrateful were I not to come forward and thank you for the almost miraculous Cure your Antiscorbutic Drops have performed upon me. I had been afflicted for the last seventeen Years with a dry Scurvy, that completely covered my whole Body with Scales, attended with great Heat and ex- I treme Pain. The Scales multiplied to such a Degree i that at certain Times I was obliged to use Grease or j Oil before I could move my Joints; and the Bed on I which I lay was completely covered with the Scurf off my Body. Having* tried all Antiscorbutic Medicines and Ointments, as well as warm and cold Baths at all the Places of Note iu the Neighbourhood, without affording the least Relief, 1 had given up all Hopes of being cured, till seeing a Letter in the Bolton Express of a similar Case to my own being enred by you. I was j induced to try your valuable Medicine, which I am happy to say gave me the greatest Relief, and before I had taken three of your 4s. 6d. Bottles, 1 experienced a complete Cure, and am now as free from Blotch or Scale as ever I was in mv life, and enjoy perfect Health. As the Publication of the Letter in the Bolton Express was the Means of my'applying to you, I trust you will allow this Case of mine to go before tbe Public, in Hopes that it may reach the Hands of the afflicted, and render them the same Comfort I now experience. You, therefore, are at Liberty to make what Use you please of this Letter : and I shall feel proud in answering any Enquiries, either personally or otherwise. ! am, Gentlemen, with the greatest Regard, your obedient Servant, THOMAS HUTCHINSON.

MAY 28TH, 1827. SALOPIAk JOURNAL, AMI> COURIER OW WALE? HOUSE OF COMMONS- THURSDAY. Forty- six petitionswere presented against the Test" and Corporation Acts.— Mr. HUME moved lor a repeal of that oue of the six acts, passed iu 1819, which imposed a duty on all periodical pamphlets under a certain size, " authorised magistrates to call upon per- sons brought, before them for seditious libels lo give security to keep the peace, and declared those twice convicted'of such libel subject to transportation,—- The ATTORNBY- GENKRAI. opposed the motion. There were ( die said) some parts of it so advantageous lhat lie eould not assent, to the repeal of them. The. subject would hereafter undergo consideration by Govern-? . ineiit.— Mr. PEEL, tlie CHANCELLOR . OF THE EXCHE- QUER, aud Lord VV. RUSSELL, also opposed themselves to ihe repeal.— Lord MILTON aud Mr. LL'. NNARD desired to leave the matter with Miuisters.— Lord Howicit supported the motion,; v\ hich was eventually rejected by a division of 120 to 10.— Mr. IIUME ob- served, with great acrimony, that Mr. Brougham aud others who had, on former . occasions, professed so much antipathy to the six Acts, were now absent from the House, when the question came before it! HOUSE OF LORDS- FRIDAY. After a long and vvahn discussion on the Com Bill, an amendment was adopted on the motion of. the Duke of WELLINGTON, by a division of 78 to 74, the effect of which is to prevent wheat being taken out of bond until the average pi ice shall have reached Al- though this amendment will not affect direct import- ations, as the ports will be open to cargoes from abroad on payment of ihe proposed duties, it pievents it being brought out. of the warehouses into the market until English wheat averages 66s. Tlie decision vias received with a'strong- expression of approbation on the part of ft) e ma jorit v.—' I he House, on risi ag at- 1wo o'clock,- adpxiirned. until Wednesday, HO US E OF COM MONS— FRIDAY. Mr. CAN^ NO, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, brought forward his Budget. U will he remembered, that some week's ago the Right Hon. Gentleman announced it to be his intention to avoid proposing any- important change in the present session, ' lhe estimated deficiency of the year, large as. it is, is by no means so great as had been anticipated. Suppos- ing the produce of the taxes not to increase during the year, the deficiency in the revenue is computed at £ 2,864,000. To meet this, Mr. Canning proposes an tssue of Exehfquer bills to the amount of three millions : though lie thinks it probable, from the increasing trade and activity of the country, that the deficiency will be still less than the estimate, and that a smaller increase of the unfunded debt will consequently . be necessary. The- present low rate of interest on Exchequer, hills is favourable, to this mode of borrow- ing- and with the addition of the proposed three millions, the amount of those, securities afloat will still'be less than it has been for the last twenty years. What in the Right Hon. Gentleman's statement is called the deficiency, it vvill be observed, is the deficiency, not of the actual income as compared wiih the actual expenditure of the country, but of the actual income as compared with that expenditure added to a sum of £ 5,700,000 set aside for the gradual reduction of the public debt. The total' estimated charge of the present \ ear will'exceed that'of the last by £ 800,000, of which, £ 500,000 is the amount of a vote of credit ou account of our army in Portugal — Mr. Canning pledged the Government to apply itself by every means to the reduction of the expenditure, *$ s well as to the increase of the revenue of the country, arid expressed himself sanguine, that the former would be considerably lessened. The full consideration of our financial situation, and the permanent means of I supplying any deficiency, is thus lefl until next veav, wheu the' Committee which is to be appointed is to meet the subject with a view to the establishment of some fixed principle of finauce, and with the advan- tage of having ascertained whether the present pro- gressive improvement of trade had continued during the year, and was likely permanently to adVanco. In tlie course of his statement, the Right Hon. Gentleman shewed, that during the last four years, the aggregate of expenditure had been exceeded by the aggregate hi co me ofthe country, to the amount of more than ' 25 millions. This falls short by about eighteen hundred thousand pounds of what it was expected to reach when tbe Sinking Fund was established on its present plan. Spread over a surface of five years, and con- nected with an expenditure of nearly three hundred millions, the result, therefore, compared wilh tlie original calculation, shews a deficiency of less than two millions, Mr. HUME said, he never despaired of the country, because he was confident it possessed resources capa- ble of meeting every difficulty; but he called upon tiie House to consider whether, after seeing every promise of prosperity for eleven years of peace falsi- fied by the event, they would consent to the increase, of debt proposed by the Right Hon. Gent. The statements of Chancellors of the Exchequer were calculated to amuse an audience, nine- teuths of whom " never considered the subject. The Right Hon. Gent said, we should meet our difficulties boldly .— But when ? At the end of another year? Would he shut his eyes to the state of the country? Was there a merchant who would not say that commerce was stifle ring in all its branches? The public funds were unnaturally' high, because there was no profitable way of employing capital. The general interests of the country were in a depressed state — no one denied the distress. If any individual was seen tottering under a load, humanity would dictate to relieve him of part of his burthen; but the Right Hon. Gent, vvas the first Chancellor of the Exchequer, who, admitting a defalcation of revenue, called upon the House to stand by and do nothing. Instead of decreasing the establishments he was actually increasing them ; though, in fact, we had on the last four years added £ 18,000,000 to our debt. Our finances were in a worse state than any other country iu the world.— The ridiculous expedition to Portugal had cost the country £ 800,000, and its folly was now apparent to all the world. The liberality of forcing a Constitution upon people who did not want it, should have been paid for by those who held that liberal opinion, ond not by the nation that condemned the folly of such a project. The Resolutions for raising money by Exchequer Bills were eventually agreed to, and the House adjourned till Wednesday. wm LONDON* Monday Night, June 4, 1827. Holiday at the Bank.

Wynn and bis brother^ have declared against tbe new ministry. [ FROM THE LONDON PACKET.}• Mr. Canning, Oil" Friday, made his financial exhi- bition; The tone of the speech is rather humble than desponding: it acknowledges a deficiency in the re- venue of nearly two millions, and suggests an increase of the unfunded debt from 23 to about 26 millions' by a loan of three millions upon exchequer hills. Two things'give os pleasure in this statement. The first is, that Mr. Canning does not insult common sense, or mislead the public to ruin, by promises of " prosperity," in the fashion'of his predecessor. We do not believe that there lives this moment the man who, by the perverse industry of a whole life, has inflicted so much injury upon those within his sphere, as the late Chan- cellor'- of the Exchequer inflicted upon the people of England'^ bv a single speech : that speech was the halloo t- o all the rapacity, all the gambling, all the insaUitY,- and all ihe deep and dea. diy ruin of 1826. It is hut an aggravation of the injury, for Lord Goderich and his friends to say that he was deceived, and that the nation was deceived with him. He, and he ouly, is the author of these still unfinished disasters, and it really is enough to move the patience ofa Stoic to hear this man, who for the sake of making a good speech — at least n speech that should he well received, sub- verted the commerce of Great Britain from its highest and most prosperous condition,-— to see such a man placed above those who, working in the uphill period from 1806 to 1824, raised it to that height from which it required all the energy of his absurdity to displace it. But this ir'digfession. Let us return to Mr. Canning. ; The second point in his speech Which gratifies us, i « his pledge of retrenchment; not that we think that the present, or any other government can retrench to any useful, or, indeed, perceptible extent, but because we see in that pledge an indication of an approaching change. The pledge is an embarrassment intended for a succeeding Cabinet— a weapon laid up with the design of employing it hereafter from the opposition benches. For Mr. Canning to talk seriously about retrenchment to the hungry Whigs surrounding him, would he no jot less ridiculous than fora huntsman to collect his ravenous pack at evening with the whip instead of the feeding trough; or for an ambitious candidate to solicit the East Retford or Knaresborougb electors in meagre exhortations to public virtue.

Mr. Canning*, it is affirmed, has also written to the Duke, warmly soliciting him to return to that important station. His Grace is said to have replied, u that he could not separate himself from the friends with whom he acted." In the letter whieh his Majesty wrote to the Duke of Wellington, requesting him to resume the com- mand of the Army, but which request His Grace most respectfully declined, His Majesty styled the Noble Duke—" My Dear Friend." At a Court of Common Council on Thursday, it was officially communicated, on the authority of the Home Secretary, Mr. Sturges Bourne, that his Majesty's health precluded him, at present, from receiving ou the Throne the address which the Corporation had voted to him 011 tho change of Ministei s.

A Correspondent informs us, that " the new Bishop of Calcutta has, in the large and liberal spirit of his Predecessor, united himself to the Bible Society and Church Missionary Society." We understand that the Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry is expected to attend the approaching Meeting ofthe Shropshire Auxiliary Bible Society. CAMBRIDGE.— On Friday last, the degree of Master of Arts was conferred ou the Rev. William Ford, cf Magdalene College. CAUTIONS.— On Saturday last, the waggoner of Mr. Edward Urvvick, of Dinchope, lost his life by the waggon going over his body at Felharopton, near tlie llth milestone from Ludlow.— It is feared that the unfortunate man's death was the conse- quence of intoxication, as he had been previously seen in company with two other waggoners who were much in liquor, and they were then all riding on the shafts of their respective waggons.— The distress and inconvenience thus frequently caused to masters who are obliged to employ their teams under the direction of such inconsiderate servants, and the many lamentable accidents that occur to servants from such unjustifiable conduct, ought to enforce the necessity of all men who are employed as waggoners being satisfied with sucli refreshment on the road as will enable them to perform their duty, and of their abstaining from those unwarrant- able indulgences lhat subject them to danger and punishment, and that place their masters' property iu jeopardy also. On the same day a poor Irish family was passed by a parish order on the. road from Church Strettou to Ludlow : one of this family was a child so ex tremely ill with the Small- Pox, that its face was almost one scab.— The intelligent Correspondent who has furnished us with this information, asks, whether parish officers ought not to have considered it improper to permit a child suffering under this infectious complaint thus to be carried through populous villages in succession ? Why was not the family detained until the child had been relieved of its dangerous and most distressing disease? The Wolverhampton Chronicle of Wednesday last says,—" A frightful accident occurred on Satur- day evening, in this town. As the female servant of Mr. Jeavons, silk mercer, of Dudley- street, was cleaning a sash window 011 the third story of the house, and was sitting upon the bottom part of it rubbing the outside, she forced the window and frame out together, and fell with them into the street, from the height of about twenty- five feet, by which she most miraculously escaped without broken bones, though not without very consider- able injury, aud we are glad to say she is now in a fair way of speedy recovery."— The very dangerous practice to which the unfortunate girl had thus nearly fallen a sacrifice, is so common iu most towns, and in none perhaps more than our own, that it becomes a matter of surprise so few accidents ofthe kind should occur. It is to be hoped that the present will operate as a caution, and deter female servants from placing themselves in situations of such peril. In a few Days will he published, IN 1 VOL. SVO.

Barley remains nomi- nally the same price, having- none for malting at market. Beans and Pease of both kinds were brisk sale, and rather dearer, as by the old law, and the • turn that the Corn Bill has taken, neither of those articles will be admitted to entry. The Oat Trade is far from being brisk, still last Monday's prices were asked for fresh Corn.

THOMAS BECK, } RICHARD GOOLDEN, S Assh We must not spare the Whigs, when we speak thus of Mr. Canning, The coalition between them has been most truly called the most Unprincipled aud abomina- ble one that ever disgraced the country. Compared with it, the coalition between Mr. Fox aud Lord North was the essence of purity and consistency . When the latter coalesced, the leading points of difference be- tween them had ceased to exist, and there was little more than their previous fierce personal hostility to keep them asnnder. But in the present wicked and disgusting Coalition, the principal parties have not only, through* life, abused each other as much as ever Mr. Fox abused Lord North, but they are to this moment, as they assert, flatly opposed to each other on various general principles and vital questions of state policy, llere are Mr. Canning and Sir F. Burden, • who challenged each other— here are Mr. Brougham sand Mr. Canning,' who would have challenged each other but for the House of Commons — here are men who have applied to each other every epithet that can stain human character— here are the champions of moderate Reform, the champions of Universal Suffrage and Annual Parliaments, the sworn/ enemies of all Re- form,. the advocates of the repeal of the Test. Acts, the opponents of such repeal, the pretended wor, shippers of Pitt, the devout foliovvers of Fox, the leaders, of Radicalism,- the trumpeters of Prerogative, the assail- ants of Monarchy, tiie eulogists of the Church, the inveterate enemies ofthe Church, the menials of Roy- alty, the apostles of the Sovereignty of the People • all combined together in a Party and a Ministry.. What can be thought of s; ueh a Coalition, if there be such things as priueiple, consistency, and honour, or if the defining of such tilings do not belong, exclusively to Mr. Canning aud his new brethren ? Let the scorn of every honest man sit upon it '. Let it be scathed and consumed by national disgust and indignation! Let the present generation, for the sake of its own character, fix upon it the brand of guilt aud infamy which it will for ever bear in the eyes of posterity 1 Here is the Mr. Brougham, who has been through life the reviler of every crowned head in Europe,, who has belonged to that knot of writers hy whom Royalty has been eternally attacked and vilified, who has seized every opportunity for assailing Prerogative and covering the Court and its friends wiih Billingsgate, and who has incessantly cried up the blessings of Re- publicanism— here is tiiis Mr. Brougham giving- a construction to Prerogative which would make the King absolute, supporting- the Crown against what he knows to be the sense of the country, ranging himself with the lowest of the menials of the Court, and assist- ing. with all his might the back- stairs influence. Here is the Mr. Brougham, who declares that there ought to be no, tests in- the conferring of public trust, allying himself with a Minister " who declares he will oppose the repeal of the Test Acts — here is the Mr. Brougham, who is the . champion of Parliamentary Reform, allying himself with a Miuisier who is the inveterate enemy of such Reform— here is the Mr. Brougham, who has railed so loudly against a divided Ministry, allying, himself with a Ministry divided ou almost every question;— here is the Mr. Brougham, who calls himself an idolizer of Fox, allying himself with a Minister who calls himself an idolizer of Pitt. Here is the Sir Francis Burdett, who, for the greater part of his life, has abused the Tories - who has abused the Whigs still more— who advocates Universal Suf- frage and Annual Parliaments— who called the House of Commons a den of corruption and knavery — who annually made those inflammatory speeches in Parlia- ment and Covent Garden, in favour of the rabble, which made many people, doubt his sanity— and who has been the outrageous knight- errant of the sove- reignty of the people— here is the Sir Francis Burdett furiously supporting- a Ministry that is headed by Mr. Canning, plunging up to the ears into the corruption of the Treasury Benrhes, fighting for the Cabinet against, public opinion, acting the part of the instru- ment ofthe Court, aud the menial of the power behind tiie. Throne. Here is the Sir Francis Burdett, who, a few years ago, publicly called Mr.. Canning, every thing save an honest public servant, now the uproarious friend and supporter of M r; Canning- as tbe Prime M inister. Here is the Sir Francis Burdett, who has advocated Universal Suffrage, aud heaped such a mountain of' scurrility upon the boroughmongers and their. boroughs, now doing his utmost to enable the combination of the Treasury boroughs, the Whig boroughs, and the boroughs of the Romish Church, to triumph over the independent part of the HOuse of Commons. He is now the sworn brother of a Premier who is the in- veterate enemy of all Parliamentary Reform. Can such conduct be pardoned ? Can it be ex- tenuated ? Can the shadow of an excuse be pleaded iu its favour ? If all the received principles of honour and consistency have not beeu reversed, the man is a disgrace to his species, who will reply in the affirma- tive; If we be told, that these individuals have acted thus to gain for the Whigs and Radicals entire posses- sion ofthe Cabinet, we mast be likewise told, that the end sanctifies the means— that men may commit any profligacy and crime to attain Svhat. they deem a good — that, because the possession of wealth is desirable, people have a right to acquire it by forgery and swindling, by highway robbery and tire cutting of throats,— or the apology will be below contempt. The conduct of this execrable Coalition, touching the Catholic Question, cannot be sufficiently repro- bated. Mr. Canning stated in Parliament, in the present Session, that if the Catholic claims were not speedily granted, a state of things would arise in Ireland which could not be contemplated without horror. He evidently meant by this, that if these claims were not. almost immediately conceded, Ireland would be in- volved in rebellion. Lord Plunkeit put forth the same doctrine. The Whig- leaders asserted the same; the Catholic advocates generally protested, that Ireland was 011 the brink of rebellion, because her claims were not granted. Well, Mr. Canning and the Whigs now say, that Emancipation ought to he deferred to a distant period, and that there is not the least danger of any disturbances in Ireland. What is the ONLY inference which common sense can draw from this ? It is,- that. Mr. Canning and the Whig- s have agitated the Catholic question, solely for their own filthy personal and party purposes — it is that they have stirred up animosity and dissension be- tween Britain and Ireland, and have filled the latter with distraction, turbulence, madness, guilt, and misery, solely that they might expel Lord Eldon and his friends from, and monopolize, the Cabinet. Not long ago, Mr. Canning asserted, that the fre- quent discussion of the Catholic question in Parliament, was exceedingly beneficial iu removing the hostility of the Protestants; how his friends say, that the question ought not on. any account to be discussed. The Whigs, not satisfied with one discussion, intended to have a second in the present session ; now they declare, that a second discussion would be in the highest degree reprehensible. Mr. Canning- must have long known, and the Whig- s must have known, too, the sentiments. of his Majesty, and that the ques- tion could not be carried. In their own knowledge, therefore, 110 NATIONAL grounds existed tor the con- tinual discussion of the question, before the change of Ministry, which do not exist in full force at this moment. The deduction is, they have used the ques- tion solely for personal and party objects. If the excuse he set up for the Whigs, that they were not iu office, what, excuse can he set up for Mr. Canning ? What defence can be made for that Minister — that member of the Cabinet, w ho promoted and de- fended the continual discussion of the question, when he knew that it could not possibly be carried, and that, such discussion brought the most g- igantie evils upon Ireland, and was, driving- Mr. Peel from office ? To the Catholics, the conduct of the coalition has been most unpardonable. It. incited them to tear each other, and their Protestant fellow- subjects, to pieces — it fed their madness, guilt, and misery, to the utmost — it continually led them fo believe that their claims were on the point of being- conceded— and it did all this when it knew that these claims COULD NOT be con- ceded. Every friend of the proper working of the Constitu- tion must have been disgusted with the contempt: which the members of the Coalition have manifested for the feelings of the country. Mr. Canning- has again aud again admitted, that the country is opposed to Emancipation ; he has indirectly admitted thissuice he was made the Premier. He, aud his Whig and Radical brethren, know that on this question the vast, majority of the cohimuniiv reposes no Confidence in and is dec 1 dedIv hostile to, the New Ministry, He a- u( I his brethren know, that on the new system of trade Ihe majority of national interests— the Landed I uteres!, I be Sl ipping interest, tbe different Colonial interests, tlie B liking- interests, nearly all the smaller Mauti- f cturing and Trading interests, and a considerable part of ihe larger ones, are decidedly . opposed to the ministry. They know, that 011 most leading anil important quest o s of policy, ilie country has no con- fidence in, and is strongly opposed to ihe Ministry. Nevertheless, they force upon the country a Ministry like this, and they employ the most unconstitutional" means for keeping it in existence. No means, however, call, we think, preserve such a Ministry from early dissolution'. 0u various questions, Ihe two parlies are bitterly opposed lo. each olher; and on other questions each part is divided ii^ uiqst itself.: it is made up of division ; it consists, from begiuninir to end, of jarring, uninixuble al inn's. It is impossible lor Ihe Whigs to place ihe least confidence iu Mr. Canning, for never more can he be trusted by njiy party whatever. The. v will, of necessity, act upon the; conviction, Unit as long as lliev may be connected with bun, they will tic j„ hourly danger of being kicked out ol office by his treachery ; and they will seize Ihe: hist opportunity of gelling rid ol' liiin. " They have the party strength, and iheir heads are not men lo be; dictated to by Mr.. Canning. Collision'and conflict will continually take place between them and him'i and the . first motneul practicable, Ibej will, „ s a matter of defence, as well as of aggrandisement, expel bun, and sei2c ihe whole . Cabinet. Speedily after- wards, they will be themselves expelled. In so far as concerns voles, Mr, Canning's OWN party— that party which lie can command iiiul carry about with liiiji— consistsniniosl wholly of llie member, ol Ihe Romish Church. . Tlie. Whig borough men will not- be under his dictation. He is now lli'i- owu entirely upon the Romish . Church ; he must depend upon ii for a majority against ihe Tories, uud lie must depend upon it for preventing the . Whig* I'ronl ex|> ei| iu< « him trom office. Tbe Romish Church, by men ns nf i Is voles J novv holds the balance in the House of Commons ; and bolll Mr. Canning and the Whigs must truckle lo it in every imaginable way, to keep possession of' tiie Cabiuet. In this state of things, to support the Ministry must be to support the admission of Ihe Catholics to power. This is iu reality declared to be the case bv Ministers aud their advocates. They avow, Unit if llie Minis!: v can only be kept- long enough iu existence, ihe Iriui. npii ol the embolics is inevitable.. No man' can possibly support the Ministry, without likewise suppurlinir what is called Catholic Emancipation, A man may vote, speak, or write against this question ; lint'this will be worthless, and he will be an efficient advocate. Iif it, if he gives his general support to ihe . MiuiMry.' i bis is ns clear as ninUleuuilivnl demonstration. No sincere, conscientious opponent of the Catholic claims can be olher ihan ihe zealous opponent oi' such li Ministry. Every man who supports ibis Ministry will likewise support that svs( em of Free Trade which has already produced so much ruin and distress, uud of which we have barely had the beginning. If Ihe question were put to ns, we could not con- fidently say lhat ihe English Revolution has not . com- menced— that we nre not in its first stages— thai the Same characteristics cannot be found in tli. is country which distinguished the beginning of llie French Re- volution. We have reached ilie point when the Government has embraced the destructive doctrines' of ibe Economists and Philosophers— and has thrown itself for support upon the Democrat!) and Infidels. We have reached the point when the leading Ministers have to depend mainly for their continuance in office upon the support of violent men, who have been dis- tinguished through life for advocating ihe most ruinoiW principles, aud who are sure to drag them verv far be- yond their intentions. We have reached the point when Ibe Government is politically separated from* and arrayed against, the Church and the Arislocnici • and when ils most furious supporters advocate liie destruction of both on abstract principle, as a national need of the first magnitude. Wc have reached other points, which we dure uWt describe and which" if we durst, our sorrow would not suffer us to describe. As to what we shall reach next, we will not give vent to our apprehensions. We have no • expeelaliou that the • Ministry will have long existence, but if it exist Corn year, or two, we believe il will cover the empire with irremediable cal amities/ We know- it to be the opinion' of many people that it will involve the nation in ex- treme distress, and then be replaced by . another, with- out any political convulsion ; but we are not convinced of the truth of this opinion. When we look at the sentiments which are put forth by Ministers, which are triumphant- in the House of Commons, which are promulgated by the greater part of the Press, and which are so industriously circulated amidst the lower and middle classes ; and when wo likewise look at what the Government is doing — we are far from beino* sure, that, if public distress should continue and iiZ crease for a year, or two years, or longer, it would be in the power of ASY Ministry to prevent the Constitu- tion and Monarchy from being numbeied atuono- THE THINGS THAT WERE, AND ARE NOT. Exploits ofthe New Administration. Our remarks upon the great and instantaneous blessings bestowed upon the country by the Coalition Ministry, must this week be very brief. We regret it extremely, because the good alreadv pronounced to be effected is so miraculous, and brought about by such unparalleled necromancy, that really we fear our successors will find much to blame in our conduct for not devoting more of our columns lo [ he w- onderful events that are daily occuriiug. Imprimis, there is Ihe barefaced tergiversation of Sir James Scarlett aud Mr. Henry Brougham, who having- taken their seals 011 the Ministerial Benches, no longer conceive it necessary to proceed iu Ihe reformation of Ihe Court of Chancery ; and so, presto, in three short weeks the whole machinery has become so perfect, and is likely lo work so well by the expeditions movements of the Coalition Officers recently engaged to wind up ils concerns, that Parliamentary interference is no longer deemed necessary, and not only ibe famous Report - which took a body of Commissioners, consisting of the greatest lawyers in the land, two'yearp lo digest and compile, is thrown on the shelf, but Lord Lyiidhur'st's Ilill, grounded thereon, when he was simply'Attorney- General lo the late Ministry, is- recoimne'iuled to he dropt, now lliut lie is Lord Chancellor.

The next beauti- ful specimen of Wiiiguery upon which ihe Premier may congratulate himself, occurred on Lord John Russell's motion for disfranchising the borough of Penrvn, upon which the Minister was left in a paltry minority of sixty. eight, notwithstanding he had de- clared be would resist Parliamentary Reform tu the last day of his life, and on ihe dehate'he had asserted thai Ibe disfranchisement of the borough did not. meet with bis approbation ! Would Mr. Pill, would my Lord Liverpool, have succumbed lo the Whigs iu this manner ? is not this a tolerably fair sample of what we are to expect when Ihe Caiholic Question comes next to be agitated, and into w lilch, if Mr. Cnnnino- is consistent, ( consistent — w e bog pardon for tlieexpfes sion us applied to the Hon. Gentleman,) he must clan- destinely, for he dare not do il openly, throw his Treasury and Cabiuet influence into the scale. The third blessing lo which we shall allude is that bestow ed by M r. 11 oskisson nn the Wool Petitioners from the county of Dorset, whom he consoles as he did Ihe Shipowners, by acknowledging their distress and taunting tliein with the speculations and over- trading of the Wool merchants iu 1825, with which Ihey hud no more tu d o, than the man in the moon And lastly, the Sto.- ks are rising ! for why ?— because the great Capitalists can not otherwise employ iheir money.

ROB ROY. LLAJN'FYI. LII*. From Sir Jonah BarringtoiC s Sketches. Among the early adventures of the author, there is •- One of considerable drollery, which we are tempted to extract. An entertainment was given by his brother by way of house- warming to a new hunting- lodge, and the company consisting of " hard- going sportsmen, 11 counted among them Captain Joseph Kelly ( Mick's well- known brother). On his arrival at the scene of action, about ten o'clock in the morning, after the first day's debauch, Sir J. thus describes appearances: — " The room was strewed with empty bottles — some broken— some interspersed w ith glasses, plates, dishes, knives, spoons, & c. all in glorious confusion. Here and there . were Heaps' of bones, relics of the former (' ay's entertainment, which the dogs, seizing their oppor- tunity, had cleanly picked.— Three or four of the Bac- chanalians lay fast asleep upon chairs— oue or twoothers on the floor, among whom a piper lay on his back, apparently dead, with a table- cloth spread over him, and surrounded hy four or five candles, burnt to the sockets ; his chanter olid bags were laid scientifically Across his body, bis month was quite open, and his nose made ample amends for the silence of his drone. Joe Kelly and a Mr. Peter Alley were fast asleep in their chairs, close to Ihe wall. Had I never viewed such a scene before,- it would have almost terrified me ; ! but it was nothing more than the ordinary custom which We called' tvci& irtg the piper, when he had got too drunk to make any more music. * •*. * * No servant was to be seen, man' or woman. ! went to the stables, wherein 1 found three or four more of the goodly company, who had just been able to reach their horses, but were seized by Morpheus before they could mount thein, and so lay in the mangers awaiting a more favourable opportunity. Returning hence to the cot- tage, 1 found mv brother, also asleep, on the only bed which it then afforded : he had no occasion to put on his clothes, since lie had never taken them off', 1 next waked Dan Tyron, a wood ranger of Lord Ashbrook, who liad acted as mailre ( f h& iel in making k^ nr. rangements, and provided a horse- load of game to fill tip the banquet. 1 then inspected the parlour, and insisted on breakfast. Dan Tyron set to Work : au old woman Was called in from an adjoining cabin, the windows were opened, the room cleared, the floor swept, the relics removed, and the fire, lighted in the kitchen. The piper was taken aWay senseless, but my brother would not suffer either Joe or Alley to be dis- turbed till breakfast was ready. No time Was lost; nnd, after a very brief interval, we had hefore lis abundance of fine eggs, and milk fresh from the cow, with brandy, sugar, and nutmeg, in plenty; a large loaf, fresh butter, a cold round of beef, w hich had not been produced on the previous day, red herrings, and a bowl dish of potatoes roasted on the turf ashes; — in addition fo which, ale, whiskey, and port, made up the refreshments. All being drily in order, we at length awakened Joe Kelly, and Peter Alley, his neighbour: they had slept soundly, though with no other pillow than the wall ; and my brother announced breakfast with a view halloa! The twain immediately started and roared in unison with their host most tremendously ! it was, however, in a very . different tone from the view halloa,— and perpetuated much longer. ' Come, boys,' says French, giving Joe a pull —' come!' * Oh, mur- der !' says Joe, 4 I can't! 1—' Murder!— murder!' echoed Peter. — French pulled them again, upon which they roared the more, still retaining their places,-— I have in my lifetime laughed till I nearly became spasmodic ; but never were my risible muscles put to greater tension than on this occasion. The wall had only that day received a coat of mortar, and of course was quite soft and yielding when Joe and Peter thought proper to make it their pillow ; it was nevertheless setting fast from the heat and lights of eighteen hours' carousal ; nnd, in the morning, when my brother awakened his guests, the mortar had completely set, and their hair being the thing most calculated to amalgamate there- with, Ihe entire of Joe's stock, together with his que we, nnd half his head, was thoroughly and irrecoverably bedded in Ihe greedy and now marble cement ; so thai, if determined lo move, he must have taken the wall along with him, for separate it would not.— One side of Peter's head was in the same state of imprisonment. Nobody was able to assist Ihem, and there they both stuck fast. A consultation was now held on this pitiful case, which I maliciously endeavoured to prolong as much as I could, and w hich was, in fad, every now and ilien interrupted by a roar from Peter or Joe, as they made fresh efforts to rise. At length, it was proposed l> y Dan Tyron to send for the stone- cutter, and get him to cut Ihem out of the wall with a chisel. I was liter nlly unable to speak two sentences for laughing. The old woman meanwhile tried to soften the obdurate wall with melted butter and new milk— hut in vain.— I related the school story, how Hannibal had worked through the Alps with hoi vinegar and hot irons: — thii experiment likewise was made, but Hannibal's solvent had no better success than the old crone's. Pete being of a more passionate nature, grew ultimately quite outrageous: lie roared, gnashed his teeth, anil swore vengeance against the mason; — but as he was only held by one side, a thought at last struck him : he asked for Iwo knives, which being brought, he whetted one against the other, and introducing the blades close to his skull, sawed away at cross corners till he was liberated, with the loss only of half his hair and a piece of his scalp, which he had sliced off in zeal and haute for his liberty. I never saw a fellow so extravagantly happy ! Fur was scraped from the crown of a hat, to stop the bleeding; his head was. duly tied up with the old woman's prasfceen ;* and he was snort in a state of bodily convalescence. Our solicitude was now required solely for Joe, whose head was loo deeply buried to he exhumated wilh so much facility. At this moment Bob Casey, of Ballynakill, a very celebrated wig. milker, just dropped in, to see what he could pick up honestly in the way of his profession, or steal in the way of any thing else; and he immediately undertook to get Mr, Kelly out of the mortar by a very expert but tedious process, namely,— clipping with his scissors, and then rooting out with an oyster knife. He thus finally succeeded, in less than an hour, in setting J> once more at liberty, at the price of his queue, which was totally lost, and of the exposure of his raw and bleeding occiput. The operation was, indeed, of a mongrel description — somewhat between a complete tonsure and an imperfect scalping, to both of which denominations it certainly presented claims. However, it is an ill, wind that blows nobody good! Bob Casey got the making ofa skull- piece for Joe, and my brother French had the pleasure of paying for if, as gentlemen in those days honoured any order given hy a guest to the family shop- keeper or artizan." * A coarse dirt// apron, worn by working women in a kitchen, in. the country parts of Ireland. PITT CLUB. The most niuneroiVs. meeting of the members of the Pitt Club that has been witnessed for several years, assembled at the Anniversary Dinner at the City of London Tavei n, en the - 28th ult.; Sir Thwmas Conch, Bart, in the chair. There were about 500 Noblemen and Gentlemen present, including the Dukes of Wel- 1 i u gton and Newcastle-; the Marquises of Salisbury. Donegal, and R! and ford ; the Earls of II are wood', Eldon, Fa rn ha in , Falmouth, Westmoreland, Bat hurst, Wincbilsea, and Manvers ; Lords, Rolle, Kenyon, Aps- ley, Downes, Hotham, and Castlcreagh ; Right Hon. Hoberl- Peel ; Hon. Lloyd Kenyon, and seven other Hon. Gentlemen ; Sir J. Chetwode, Sir J. G Cotterell, and twelve oilier Baronets; W. R. Toniline, Esq. M. P. Wilbraham Egerton, Esq. M. P. and forty other'Mem- bers of the House of Commons ; & c, & c. & e. The usual loyal toasts having been drank, the Chair- man',- iii proposing " the immortal memory of William Pitt," said —" When 1 see around me the talent, the aristocracy, the landed interest, and commercial wealth of ihe country, f cannot but. feel awed in addressing such an assembly. Gentlemen, these, are difficult times in which' we live. Is it possible for me to look to my right or to my left without seejrlg with the deepest regret rtieu who have truly ennobled themselves by their own greatness, now estranged from the councils of the Sovereign. Iff look to my right, I see a Noble Earl, who, if ever there was af councillor about his Majesty w ho was entitled fo esteem'and to confidence, it is that one. f f/ nmertse cheering.) i am perfectly satis- lied thai if the whole country could hear my voice, it would agree with me in saying, that if ever there was a man who, by the exercise of his talents ahd persever- ance, evinced that honourable and firm attachment to the constitutional principle and noble love of country which animated that great man Mr. Pitt— that man. is the Earl of Eldotj. ( Enthusiastic cheer ing. J. ft T rum to the other side, whom do I see there ?' The greatest Captain of his age — ( applause) — an illustrious Hero, aud equally distinguished for heroic deeds in the field and manly rectitude in the Senate. It is impossible to see those distinguished i- ndmitna'ls vilified fry the Press, as bigots, and dragged through tire mire of calumny— it is impossible to see this without horror. I nni as much a friend to the liberty of the Press as any man, hut w hen we behold siibh licentiousness, il is more than Englishmen can bear; and let not that Press expect any benefit from tiiat conduct; for, though there are people w ho like the treason'well enojigh, they'can- not but hate the traitors. I hope soon to seG tlie day when the principles of Mr. Pitt will govern the coun- try; ihey are the only principles which can'save the Constitution and State. But' instead of ah Adminis- tration guided by those principles,- we have flow one formed of the most heterogeneous" particles', made up of sweets and sours, composed of a coalitidri of conflicting interests. Of the merits of such a coalition I cannot give a clearer illustration than that1 Contained in a speech delivered by Mr. Pilt in his early days. It was spoken on occasion of the celebrated coalition between Mr. Fox. and Lord North; oue, by the bye',- from the effects of w hich those celebrated men never recovered. Here the Hon. Chairman read the following extract from Mr. Pitt's speech on the 24th of March, 1783: — " Some people," said Mr. Pitt, " could reconcile it to their minds to part with their principles/ a in I adopt- new ideas : however such sentiments might agree : ih tried constitutions and long practical habits, he The healths of Mr. Peel, the Eat! of Westmoreland, i il e Chairman, and Earl Bathuisf, were given,- and thanks were returned by each of those distinguished individuals. " The Earl of Harewood, the President for the ensu- ing year," was then drank ; on which his Lordship returned thanks, and said— He recollected the moment when that Society was first founded, originally for the purpose of perpetuating the principles of Mr. Pitt, and with aii expectation that, should a time ever arrive of doubtful principles and dangerous measures, this and ; its sister ilistitsitions would form a rallying point for the maintenance of loyalty. The present were critical times. Circumstances had recently occurred which excited the curiosity and astonishment of the public; but his Noble and Right Hon. friends had wisely abstained from any explanation of the motives of their conduct. They were not called upon to give any expla. nations— they had done nothing which they, could be required to explain. For his part, lie stood there, his political relations changed, but not his principles— he stood there, opposed to the majority of the present Government. It might be thought fastidious in him, and others, to continue displeased with the formation of the present Cabinet, when it contained every class of politicians, and every shade of opinions, that had appeared since the French Revolution— the friends of Mr. Pilt, and the enemies of Mr. Pitt. But for all that, Ihe Cabinet oid not please him. If there was any man who could refuse to deny tlie most perfect toleration to the Roman Catholics, he should be sorry to see him in that assembly. But, when he saw what is called the ' Catholic Question supported by Associations outwardly obedient to the law, yet influenced by secret under standings, if required the whole vigilance ofthe public to watch such dangerous proceedings. The health of" Lord Kenyon," and some other toasts, having been drank, and many excellent songs sung, the meeting separated.— Beside the immense company assembled on this occasion, several hundreds were ri'liable. to obtain admission tickets, as the room would not afford sufficient accommodation.— The proceedings of the ( fay' \ vere ( says a London Paper) evidently " in- tended as a pointed rebuke to the present Administra- tion. Every phrase of a speech, or a song, alluding to knavery and trick, was promptly and justly applied by the company to those who have lately seized upon power, while the usual compliments to patriotism gallantry, truth, aiid honour,' were as readily appropri- a ted to the illustrious ntembers of the late Cabinet, who ' dignified and adorned tlie meeting with their presence.' The following toasts were afterwards given: — " The great and good Lord Eldon— the true friend of Mr. Pitt— upright in his public life, and dignified in his retirement." " Mr. Peel, whom, for his integrity and consistency, we regard and hail as the Pitt of the day." " Lord Hill and Shropshire Heroes." Mr. Boycott and Iris Fox Hounds." was vet too young to change his opinion and conform li. is ideas to the tide of interest, or ihe prevalence of party. He had formed one opinion, one great principle, bv whieh his conduct was to be regulated : and it hail iii his heart taken such deep root that he could not erase it. Gentlemen talked of forgiving animosities and alteri. no their political opinions, with as much ease as they could change their gloves; that what they reprobated to- dav, they were justified in applauding to- morrow; and those whom they bated, disdained, and hooted at iu the HIoliving, it was honourable, patriotic, and conscientious that they should lake to their bosom in the evening. This was a maxim as yet a stranger to his heart. He could not coalesce with those whose principles he knew to be diametrically opposite to his own; because, if they changed to his opinion, he could not depend upon them ; and if he changed to theirs, ho must be conscious thai he acted against his honest judg- ment. Pur ties formed on such a basis could never long continue. There might he a seeming coalition of senti- ment with the coalition of interest ; but men who had come to the years of discretion, and who well knew how such political marriages were made, would pay very little respect to the oath by which they were bound, whenever they found it their interest to depart from it. A similarity of ideas, he said, was requisite to make friendship permanent, and, without'that similar- ity, there could not be either public or private coalition thai would last. He, therefore, thought it necessary to declare explicitly, that he could not bring himself to adopt the same mode of reasoning as was held in justifi- cation of the grand coalition, and that his principles were sueli as were not adapted to times like the present The Chairman afterwards gave—" The House of Brunswick, and may they never forget, the Principles that seated their Family on the Throne of these Realms " — This toast was follow ed by " The Protestant Ascend ancy," which was received with rapturous applause. The Chairman then said—" There is no greater friend to religious freedom than 1 am; but Protestant Ascend- ancy is not opposed to religious freedom. In proposing, the health of " The Duke of Welling- ton," the Chairman said—" That Noble Duke and Iris retired Colleagues are a set of men who thought it a duty which they owed to themselves and to their prill ciples, to withdraw from an Administration which they could not support consistently with those print* pies, 1 all on yotT, Gentlemen, and if I had a voice loud enough 1 would call oil the country to declare, could they be steemed honest men had they not resigned tinder such circumstances? ( Cheers. J Would they have merited the confidence of the Iviiig or of the country if they had not done as they have done ? Is it not too much, then, to hear the illustrious Duke, nud the Noble and Learned Earl, and my Right Honourable Friend ( Mr. Peel) charged w ith a design of dictating to their Sovereign ? — Sovereign whom they love, to whom they are attach- ( f, and for whose honour and dignity they are ready to sacrifice their dearest interests. ( Great cheering. J These charges are so monstrous, Gentlemen, lhat it is time for us to speak out. He who addresses you is, like those noble personages, one who thinks for himself, and he never thought more sincerely, than when he now says, that no set of men ever left an Administration so consistent, so honourable, so much respected by the ountry."— The toast was drank in the most enthusiastic manner. The Duke of Wellington, in returning thanks, said, " It is Very true-, that I am no longer in that active service of tlx' King, in the course of which 1 bad the honour of so often receiving jour approbation. But it was not the practice of the great man whose bir( h- dav we have met lo celebrate, to detail to assemblies of this kind the reasons and motives which led frith to enter or quit his Majesty's service. And, with your permission, Gentlemen, 1 shall take the liberty, on this occasion, to follow his example ; and will not go into detail or ex- planation of the causes why I am no longer one of His Majesty's Council. This, however, I will say, lhat my 1 retirement, as my Hon. Friend has truly said, did not arise out of the failure of any contrivance or conspiracy or of any of those causes to which it has falsely been at- tributed ; and allow me to add, that notw ithsianding the calumnies which have been animadverted on by my Hon Friend, 1 fee! my confidence increased from your approbation this night, that those misrepresentations have had no effect whatever on the minds of my countrymen." (. Great cheering.) On the health of " The Rail of Eldon" beino- given his Lordship returned thanks, and said—" As one of the oldest of his Majesty's late servants, I must express mv concurrence with the noble and illustrious Duke to whom the country owes so much— so much more than it can ever pay— that this is not an occasion on which 1 am called on to explain the causes of iny late retirement This, however, I may state, thai iu the principles which governed me through life— principles which I adopted because most conducive, as 1 thought, to the public good — in these I shall die. ( Cheers.) There is I must remark, a very great misunderstanding as to two of our toasts — I mean ' Protestant Ascendancy,' and 4 The House of Brunswick, and may they never forget Ihe Principles which placed them upon the Throne of these Realms.' I cannot believe or imagine that there is one Protestant, in this Protestant country, who does not wish for Protestant Ascendancy. I respect those who differ from me in opinion w ith regard to the propriety of granting what are called the Catholic Claims • but ' l The Wolverhampton Pitt Club Held their Anniversary dinner ort the same day, J. E. Molineux, Esq. in the Chair,— After the usual loyal toasts, and the immortal memory of Mr. Pitt had been drank, the Chairman gave—" The House of Brunswick, and may they never forget the Principles which seated them on the Throne of these Realms." The Rev. Mr. DALE then rose, and said—'^ Before I take the advantage of your permission to propose our next toast, I request tlie indulgent attention of my friends and brother Pittites, whilst I wipe off arfasper- si on' with which the specious liberality of the present day has condescended fo honour our proceeding^ I believe, Gentlemen, it is not unknown to you that previously and subsequent to our last anniversary, there have been open sececiers from several Pitt Clubs on the grounds that the toast of the " Protestant Ascendancy is an invidious and obnoxious one; and I , am in it eh mistaken if the highly- gifted Mr: Canning' did not separate himself from the London Club on these Very grounds. Amongst other excuses for this defection, we are told thai the immortal Pitt resigned bis political power upon what is called the Catholic Question'. Granted that he did so. But is it not equally true, that he afterwards resumed his post at the lielni of the State, upon the express stipulation that this Question should not again be agitated under his auspices as a Minister. This simple fact must put an end to all argument on this topic. But, Gentlemen, supposing for a moment that Mr. Pitt had teen persevering and devoted an advocate for the Papists as the. classical Gentleman who now would fain make us believe ( and such; is the deceitfnlness of the human heart, that he appears'to have flattered himself into the belief,) that he alone is almost the only true and genuine disciple of Mr. Pitt',— What,- I ask, has that to do with the matter? We are not niet here to eulogise or con demn the opinion of Mr. Pitt upon the Roman Catholic Question; but to celebrate tlie birth- day of the Patriot who, untjei' " Providence, Was the savioUr of his country, He was the pilot who safely steered ns through the lilrl*!/-.!^ /\ f / lotiiocitA ccrtiiVitri' ami 1' liA r ii i- 1 nil e MENDICITY SOCIETY, & c. Society for promoting- Christian Knowledge. On Tuesday se'nnight, the friends of the above Society held their anniversary dinner, at Freemason's Hall, at which his Royal" Highness the Duke of Clarence presided, supported by the Bishops of Lon- don, Chester, Bath and Wells, Ely, the. Lord Primate of Ireland, Lord Kenyon, Lord George BerCsford, & c. About 200gentlemen sat down to an excellent dinner The Bishops appeared in full canonicals ; and, in accordance with the rule laid down by the Institution, there was neither cheering* nor singing. On the health of his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence being drank, the Royal Chairman returned thanks, and eulogised the society they were now called4 upon to support. After which his Royal Highness made the iiiVpoVtant declaration ( inserted in our last Journal) Of his determination to maintain the interests of the Protestant Church . The Lord Primate of 1 reland ( Archbishop of Armagh) then rose to return thanks for a toast drank in his favour. Before he sat down, perhaps, the illustrious chairman, and others present, would consider that he ought to make some allusion to the circumstances which were now daily occurring in Ireland ; he alluded to the rapid progress. of the Reformation. It was his opinion that the Established Churches of England ami Ireland must stand or fall together. A if ardent wish for general inquiry and knowledge was • daily gaining ground in Ireland, and all the influence which might he used against it would be of no avail. He was persuaded, that the abandonment of the Romish faith would be the result of a general wish on the part of the people of Ireland to inquire into and gain knowledge, and that conviction and truth would pre- vail. He did not place so much reliance on the re- formation being brought about by the abandonment of the Roman Catholic religion by some of its followers, but he placed his confidence for the reformation qf Ireland on the good seed that had been sown there, by this and other societies, which would shortly spring tip and bear fruit abundantly. Success to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel having been drank, the Chaplain observed, that the society had existed for 130 years, and had steadily pursued the objects it originally contemplated. In 1811 the number of subscribers was 4000; in S827 they were 16,000. The income in the former year amounted to £ 24,000: last year £ 66,552. 10s. had come into the Treasurer's hands. During the same period 1,461,825 Bibles, Testaments, Common Prayer Books, and other religious books, had been dis- tributed. The operations of the society had extended through the w hole of the British dominions. hidden rocks of domestic sedition', and the furious breakers of foreign shores ;— and when it pleased the game Providence to call him hence, tiie remaining crew, aided by the plans and charts which he had laid down and animated with the same invincible courage ( his spirit as iheir Polar Star), continued to weather the storm, until they brought our Royal George into the haven of a victorious peace. These, Gentlemen, I say, are the grounds upon which we celebrate the memory of the immortal Pitt. We meddle not with his opinion of an experiment which be never achieved ; nay, which, as 1 have shewn, lie conscientiously abandoned. But, Gentlemen, I will now, in a very few5 words, convict these doughty renegados of the grossest ab- surdity, from their own mouths. They scruple, forsooth, to pollute their lips with the old- fashioned toast of " Protestant Ascendancy," and yet they drink and shout for the one which immediately precedes it, and which we have also drunk with merited applause. Now, upon examination, these toasts will be found to be in such perfect unison with each other, that, to speak clerically, each forms Ihe very context, and might without' anv violation of sound or sense be verbally interwoven with the other; — to speak logically, they are the simple converse of a proposition, for if we are asked why we drink to the Principles which placed the House of Brunswick upon the Throne of these Realms, the only true answer is, lhat they are such principles as, by guaranteeing a " Protestant Ascendancy," secured to us the full enjoyment ofour civil and religious liberties; — and again, if it is enquired of us why we drink " the Protestant Ascendancy," we reply, that it is the sine qua non of the Principles which placed the House of Brunswick upon the Throne of these Realms. In short, Gentlemen, these toasts are as like each other as two glasses of wine from the same bottle; and I pity the squeamish stomach and weaker head of the man w ho rejects either. We have druiik the first, and I now trust that wilh lips, heart, and voice, we shall do ample justice lo Ihe other. Gentlemen, I give you—* The K meeting of the " Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts" was held at the Freemasons' Tavern, on Saturday se'nnight ; his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury in the chair. • A vv Toiiiifiinousreport was read by the Secretary, statiiig. t. hat the progress made by the Society in the British Colonies had equalled, not to say exceeded, their warmest anticipations ; but that in the course ofthe last four years, notwithstanding the liberality of Paffrrsrnent,, th<* expenditure had exceeded the receipts by about £ 6000, and that it therefore became n, ecessary to make £ farther appeal to the public, that their labours i& ight not be mferrupted. Among the members present' were the Archbishop cif York, the Bishops of London, Chester, Llandaff, Ely, Gloucester, Lichfield arid ^ bventry, & c. Lord Ken- yon, the Rev. Dt:. Phi I potts, of Durham, and others of the Nobility and Clergy. This is, we understand, the first public meeting* held by the society since its foundation in 1701. At the above Meeting, tiie Bishop of Calcutta ( Dr. James) said, in reference to his new appoint- ment, " the path which he had to tread in, was open to hrm, and he should certainly endeavour, by all means in his power, to follow the examples of Bishops Middleton and Heber. The object he should always wish to have in view, would be to conciliate the Christian Church, so j, vs to prevent the existence of any jealous or unpleasant feeling in the minds of any persons whatever. It was for this purpose that the Christian Church had been established~^ to produce a unity of feeling and principle, not by a system of terror— not by inquisitorial means— but by that mild and social influence, which an institution of that nature never failed to produce. If it should please God, that he should be enabled to return to this country, he hoped, if he " ever had the honour of again meeting this Society, he should be able to say, that he had done his dutv. Wre insert the following Letter at the request of a Clergyman resident near Shrewsbury, to whom it was addressed, and who is well acquainted with the writer : — In compliance with the wish expressed itVyOur letter, I take up my pen to communicate to you my ideas upon' the subject which occupied the meeting lately held in the Town Hall; namely', " devising- some means of clearing the streets of the great numbers of beggars and prostitutes that now infest them," which ended in an agreement, " to establish a Mendicity Society for the purpose of granting relief to itinerant'beggars, and for providing work for such o'f them as are capable of it." I cannot withhold the expression of my satisfaction at an arrangement so likely to relieve tbe number of poor Irish peasants, who, after a hard and successful struggle to effect it, flee their country, to avoid the horrors of famine in the midst of • plenty / and throw themselves upon English hospitality, satis- fied to work for their food alone ! many of whom make your town their way, and daily, nay hourly, importuue the pas- senger for something- to satisfy their hunger. It is much to be desired that like institutions may be formed iu other towns, and that all may be conducted so far on the principle of self- support, and of . inviting- to their aid the many sources of supply suited to such institutions, which every respectable hpuse can, without loss, in a greater or less degree furnish, that their establishment may not be felt as any additional pressure, and, above all, that the proper pride of the yoor may nit be unnecessarily broken down.. I) oubtless, such matters- will receive due consideration; and the reports and details of the Dublin Mendicity Society, which would, 1 am sure, be cheer fully furnished if applied for, may afford much useful inform- ation. The observations of the Mayor and other gentlemen as to the state ofthe streets of Shrewsbury with regard lo prosti- tution, the number of persons who harbour and encourage those unfortunate wretches, and of landlords who let their houses to such depraved ' beihtfs,' particularly in one of the suburbs, testify the enormity of this species of pest," and in a manner calculated, 1 should hope, to rouse the inhabitants generally to a sense of the evil, and corresponding measures for its extinction. A moral feeling opposed to it must be raised in the people at large. Removing the unhappy creatures who now prowl about your streets in noon- day glare, will, as your Mayor observed, avail little; for, as in commercial matters, so it. is in vice— the supply ( of whatever nature it may be) will in some way eqtra- liz'e itself to the demand. It appears by the public papers laid before Parliament, that the proportion of ? rime in the agricultural now exceeds that in the manufac- turing districts. That much of the crime of the country is attributable to the vice under consideration will, I believe, be admitted; and Liverpool, a great sea- port', and Manchester, Stockport, Sheffield, and Birmingham, extensive and popu- lous manufacturing towns, are mucb improved in that respect --- in the religious habits of the lower classes — and in their attendance at public worship. In those towns the schools are weVl attended, aiid in a high state of perfection : tbe discipline of the Sunday Schools'— the training of the teachers— their frequent meetings for mutual edification-- the care of the children of their respeedve classes during the week, extending as it does in some measure to the parents— the system of tract- lending, visiting tbe different dwellings to leave or ex- change them week I y- - Prayer- meetings-.- dtten tion to the sick, both in ministering to" their wants and reading at their bed's- side— and receiving, as those institutions do, general support; they seem, as it were, to connect the greafc mass of the popu- lation of those towns by moral chains, a link of which cjinno. t be broken by the miscondbet of any, without being known to and subject, to the reprobation of the others. Many interest- ing facts were stated to me, and others I had opportunities of witnessing, connected with those Sunday Schools, of the num- bers in attendance at which some estimate may be formed, from tbe circumstance of 26,000 scholars parading the streets of Manchester on the day of the Coronation of the King, singing their scmol hymns. In Stockport the principal school has 5000 scholars, children and adults, with a propor- tionate number of teachers and superintendants, assembled every sabbath under one roof, pnring. the riots in that neighbourhood in 1819, of all connected with this school, it was stated to me that thirteen only weire accused of participa- tion ; that of this number eight exculpated themselves, and against the others the proof was not satisfactory. In Man- chester the discipline and management of one of those schools, containing 2000 scholars, and kept in strict connexion with the Church of England, so much attracted my liot. iee, that I made repeated visits to the weekly evening meetings of its conductors and teachers, with whom such of the parents and frieudft of the children as w, ish it associate themselves, for the purposes of prayer and exhortation after the labours of the day, and occasionally taffurther the operation's o'f " Benevolent Societies," formed amongst themselves, I/ pon those occa- sions 1 was fortunate in meeting one of the principal patrons of the school- - a commercial gentleman of great private worth, zealously devoted to the school. The respectful feel- ings of al I towards him- - his kind enquiries, and notice of them individually — the affectionate manner of the members to each other, in which the proper deference to station or acquirements was not for a moment lost sight of— and, above all, the truly christian spirit which pervaded their meetings, satisfied me that nothing can be more essential to the welfare ofthe country than some such connexion between tbe differ- ent. classes. In the middle and lower ranks worth and talent will be found in a proportion far bevond any idea the higher classes now form of it: of this the Manchester school, in the person of one of its superintendants, furnishes'a remarkable instance. A pe, rson still in the comparatively humble station of manager ofa warehouse, was tlie principalagent'iu forming • the school and its benevolent societies; by his plan, and following his suggestions, tbe scliool- house, consisting of four fijoors- to contain 500 scholars each, was built, and the furid? t for that purpose, provided ; to him the teachers and scholars affectionately look as a guide and councillor ;; and such is the regard and esteem for him, that, niodest and unassuming as lie is, fie was literally forced to Sit for his portrait, from which, at the individual expense of the teachers and friends of the school, many prints have been taken. The factories in those towns', interesting- for their machinery and minute divisions of labour, ard doubly so from the moral improvement of those employed i- n tbst& Led as I was, by distant, reports, to believe them sinks of vice, my surprise at" the first visit to BIBLE SOCIETY.— In the course of his address delivered at the recent meeting of the British and Foreign Bible Society, the Lord Bishop of Lichfield' and Coventry said—• " To each individual heart I conceive that an An- nual Report thus addresses itself; and that each individual is thereby called upon to consider his own conduct, in the past year, with relation to this Society and to the Bible; to consider how far he has used his hest endeavours to promote the Cause of God, and of this Society ; and how far he has used his endeavours to disseminate the Scriptures among* his family and those entrusted to his charge ; to consider, again, hovv far his example has had such a salutary effect on the world around him, as may induce them to make the Bible, by which he professes lo be governed, the standard of their faith, and the grojnid of their conso- lation ; and to consider how far he himself has grown and increased in the personal knowledge and prac- tical application of the truths pf tjie Gospel in his own soul. I trust 1 sivall be excqsed; from the situation which I fill, for making these observations uppn the effects which an Annual Report is calculated to pro- duce; and I trust, this evening, before we retire to' our beds, the issue of such inquiries will b § — a deter- mination to deepen our attachment, to con firm our perseverance, and to increase our. e^ ertjqiis apd our self- deny ing sacrifices in this blessetl Cause. The Cause of the Bible Society has, for njany years, ap- peared fo me to he ( apd that view is in no degree diniyijgljeri, hut rather increased) the Cause of Truth r the Caqse o. r^- brrsiiap affectipn and love, tiie Cause of man in regard to his best interests, and the Cause of God. And for myself, I may venture to say, that I feel, with regard to this Society, that if I could be found ever lo oppose it, I should tremble—( I speak for myself individually) — I should tremble lest I should be found t'o fight against God : and if I could feel my ardour cool, or my labour slacken, in the Cause of this Society, 1 should fear lest the con- demnation of that Scripture should fall upon my hea<£ — i If any man draw back, My soul shall have no pleasure in him, 1** THE KING.— A Correspondent of the St. Jameses Chronicle savs—" I had the good fortune to be pre- sent on Tuesday at the meeting of the London clergy in Sion College, when the Bishop of London commu- nicated the purport of the conversation with which his '$ fajesfy had lately honoured the Archbishop of Canterbury and himself, during which his Ma- jesty declared that he had been, from his earliest connection with politics, adverse to the admission of the Roman Catholics to political power;— that he had expressed these sentiments to the public men with whom he held communication before his ad- vancement to the Regency,— during the continuance of the restrictions on that office,— and after they were removed;— that he still held them unaltered ; thai his views on the Catholic claims, and the incom- patibility of their concession with the coronation oath, were precisely the same as those of his royal Father; and that he would protect the Protestant church as at present established, in all its rights and privileges, inviolable." cannot understand how The contest so long carried on between the Earl of Dailington and the Marquis of Hertford for the patronctffc of the borough of Camelford has at length been amicably terminated. It is understood that the noble Earl has purchased the property held in the borough by the Marquis. This arrangement has not. given entire satisfaction to the electors, who feel that au opposition raises the value of their support! the Catholic Claims ;' but I Protestant can wish otherwise than for Protestant Ascendancy. When I say I wish for Protestant Ascendancy, let it not be understood I am opposed to religious toleration ; and when it is said tiiat Mr Pilt was favourable to Catholic Emancipation as it is called, 1 look back and see what Mr. Pitt's opinions really were. Mr. Pitt knew nothing of Roman Catholic rights. That great man was desirous lhal as many con- cessions should be made to the Catholics as could be made with safety lo the Constitution of the country but Ibe Catholics have had much granted to them since those days, and even in those days neither Mr. Pitt nor any one else, ever thought of granting Calhoiic Eman- cipation, without obtaining securities for the Established Church. 1 say tllPli, ond if i| were dip last words I Imd lo uller I would say, llml ns far ns I know ilic opinions of Mr. I'itt on this subject, and no- inaii had more oo. portiniities of ascertaining- his opinion than myself he never had an idea of granling Emancipation, without obtaining- adequate securities; I mean, wiihont lakino every precaution for the protection „ f i[„, Protestanl Church. Hut. if you look to llie Bills which have heen introduced into Parliament since his death, and in pro- fessed conformity with hip alleged principles I lell yoii that Ihe securities contained in them are mere dust and ashes."— The Noble Lord sat down amidst immense cheering-. Protestant Ascendancy.' The health of the Chairman having been drank, that Gentleman returned thanks, and gave " His Majesty's Ministers, and may they never forget the Principles which placed the House of Brunswick on the Throne of these Realms, and secured to us a Protestant Ascend- nncy."— This was followed by " Field Marshal the Duke of Wellington, the Champion of Europe " The health of the Secretary ( the Rev. Mr. Timlall) having been drank, that Gentleman, on returning thanks, said—" If we still think our confidence in Mr. Pitt was well founded, what opinion are we to form of those under whose more immediate guardianship the Constitution is at present placed? I admit that the more general extension of knowledge, and the expan- sion of the human mind, demand correspondent im- provements; that the changes created by time, and the civil polity of Europe, may require alterations in every Government; but still there are principles, im mutable like truth itself, from which you cannot recede without consequent confusion and ruin. The present Cabinet have, throughout their lives, proposed mea- sures diametrically opposite to those principles which we ami our forefathers have ever considered the safe- guards of the Constitution ; they have protested, iu whatever station they may be placed, they will never cease to advocate and promote those measures • if, therefore, they shall ntteirtpt to carry their professions into practice, have we not strong grounds to apprehend they, will adopt resolutions dangerous to the country? If it be said that the Premier himself is opposed to them, then it must be confessed that sincerity is not the basis of their union. We know lhat we are the first national Protestant Church in the world, and ever have heen tbe bulwark of the Protestant faith. To admit Roman Catholics into the two Houses of Parliament, to legislate for a Protestant Church, will he to introduce a fatal anomaly into' the Constitution. No man can serve two masters. To argue that the temporal power of Ihe Pope has ceased to exist, is mere sophistry. Have we not hurled defiance at the temporal power of France, Spain, Holland— almost the world in arms? It is spiritual domination we have to dread : the professors of the Roman Catholic Religion declare it to be un- changeable, nnd assert its claim of ascendancy over the consciences of mankind ; nor will they cease to attempt to enslave the Throne and lay prostrate the Established Church. The present Administration must therefore either barter their principles for place, or be justly regarded as the most dangerous that ever succeeded to power. I know it is too common to represent political tergiversation as a trivial offence; but I say that he who will violate one of the first duties with regard to his country, will not hesitate to violate any minor one when a fair temptation is presented to his view. It was the political integrity of Mr. Pitt which threw a resplendent lustre round his genius that will he recorded to the latest period of the world. It was the consistency and integrity of Lord Liverpool, and the unsullied honour of Mr. Peel, which have gained them the appro- bation and gratitude of their country. Such are the rewards of pure and unsophisticated patriotism. There is not, I am confident, a member of this Club who would wish to curtail one iota of His Majesty's just prerogative. He has chosen his present servants to be Ministers, and it is our duty fo submit to that decision. They are upon their trial, and the eyes of the country are upon them ; and we may rely upon the King's paternal solicitude for the welfare of his subjects, that the same prerogative which has called them to the Cabinet will, on any flagrant violation of duty, be as promptly exerted iu removing them from it," MR. BROUGHAM.— In the course ofhis speech on the late discussion relative to the Court of Chancery, Mr. Brougham acknowledged that Lord Eldon was undoubtedly a man of great ability, knowledge, and talent; and that he was an able Chancellor, though less able as a Judge than as a lavyyer and a poli- tician!— When this admission is considered by those who have been in the habit of reading Mr. Brougham's former assertions relative to the vener- able Earl and Court of Chancery, it will not be thought wonderful tha| Mr. Brougham's change of opinions should have excited some surprise— a sur- prise which has given rise to much comment in the Newspapers, one of which observes— " The special revelation which Mr. Brougham has had of the merits of the Chancery system, is another remarkable instance ofthe change which usually lakes place iu the moral vision of men on emigrating from one side of a certain great House lo the olher. It may appear unaccountable, that an orator, by stepping about half a dozen yards across a room, should lose, as it were, his political identity— should even become the adversary of his Cornier self. If we were told of such a ; t!) ing in the " Arabian Nights' Entertainments," we would say it was the effect uf enchantment — that there was so in e lal. is. tnanic. charm in ihe neighbourhood of the treasury benches,, which so operated upon the " mind's eye" ofa converted patriot, as to make him see nothing but beauty and excellence, where all before had been deformity ; and to fill him with admiration of things which he had previously denounced and condemned. We had heretofore believed that Mr. Brougham was one of the ardent advocates of reform in Chancery, and lhat he had about as much reverence for fhe court and the judge who presided there as Sampson had for the Temple of Dagon. His opinion is now so different on this subject, that we are bound to suppose that he sees things in another light from what he did, otherwise we could not give him credit for sincerity in the expression of his sentiments on Mr. Michael Angelo Taylor's motion." In reference to the same subject, The Standard says— " The debate upon Mr. Taylor's motion, on Tuesday, must have afforded: the Whigs a pleasant foretaste of the unquiet nights they are- to expect from the ghosts of those old political projects which they have so ap- parently dropped, to perish. Mr. Canning1, indeed, by surrounding himself with men of all parties, has pro. vided himself with votes upon all sides of all manner of questions; bul he is not quite so opulent in speakers as in voters, and such exhibitions of re- deglutition as those made last night by the Attorney- General and Mr. Brougham are somewhat too strong for frequent repetition. By the way, we beg the public to keep an attentive eye upon Mr. Hume's promised motion for a repeal of the sixtieth of the late King, imposing certain restrictions upon the press. This motion has already been the cause of a schism between the Member for Montrose and Sir R. Wilson, who was. commis, stoned by the Whig leaders to beg its abandonment, in considera- tion that they had all spoken against the enactment of ihe law in question, and must all now vote against its repeal. Mr. Hume was firm." In the Sheriff's Court, London, on the 26th ult. Mr. Rawlings, upholsterer, of Cheltenham, obtained a verdict, with £ 700 damages, against Mr. Marsh, a surgeon, for crim. con. with the plaintiff's wife. one ( Mr. Murray's), accompanied by the benevolent patron of the ' school to whom I have already alluded, may be easily conceived on bearing Sunday school hymns from every part of the building ;. while, as we passed through the rooms, the grateful salutations to him, and his kind recognition of them as t. be attendants at his school, left impressions never to be effaced. Happy prospect for the children of the poor, and the nation at large, to nave such places become, as it were, temples of the living; God. In many of the streets, also, the effects of the Sunday School system are perceptible ; in the houses at either side the school hymn? supersede the ribald ballad and obscene discourse, and little, CQjtiparfiiively, is to be rpet offensive to modesty. Amongst the sailors at Liverpool so great is the reform, that during my stay of a few months there, often visiting the extensive docks and numefous ship, ping, 1 cannot charge, my memory with more than two or three instances of blasphemy or indications of vice. The rooms for sailors' praver- meetings are truly interesting. Totally unapprised of their existence, one winter evening, a light surrounded by a canvas ( on which was painted " Bethel Meeting"), and issuing from the second, floor of a public store, attracted my attention, and, making my way up its ladder stairs, 1 took my seat amongst a number qf the lowest descrip- tion of. sailors, one of whom shortly after, not from a pulpit or desk, but, from one of the forms in the centre of the congrega- tion, delivered a most excellent extempore prayer, Which evidently made a deep impression on the meeting. On retir- ing, one of them ( respectfully approaching) presented me with a tract, and expressed a hope that the visit would be renewed. Enquiry into the origin of these meetings followed; and on calling upon the officers of " The Bethel and Seaman's Friend Society," ample details of their proceedings were politely furnished, amongst which are arrangements to provide for the numerous sailors and other strangers who frequent that town, decent, safe, and religious lodging- houses, which is done by the society taking, under its protection, and recom- mending by public notice, certain houses, of whose owners its members have luid satisfactory characters, and placing in each a few copies of the Bible and other religious books. Differences, of opinion, 1 am aware, exist as to the propriety of encouraging reading amongst the lower classes. The experi- ment has been successfully tried at Liverpool, where two libraries— the one called The Mechanics' and Apprentices', d the other The Female Apprentices,' Library— are now in their fourth year of triumphant operation. Their published reports are highly satisfactory, and even exceeded by those of their individual supporters." Oft have 1 visited those insti- tutions, returning e?\ eh time with increased satisfaction at witnessing the anxiety to procure books. Blacksmiths, coachmakers, carpenters, shipwrights, mechanics, tradesmen, ot " ~' " and traders of all descriptions, pressing forward to the one, and ladies, mantna- makers, milliners, & c. to the other, to become sureties for the return qf the bpo^ s by their servants, appren- tice's, & others in their employments," declaring their satisfac- tion- at finding the leisure hours so employed; and that though at first prejudiced against it, they v> ere~ satisfied by experience, that with increased intelligence they rendered increased attention, diligence, and satisfaction, in their several stations. Here, then, is the testimony of persons best qualified to judge of the effects upon those wliose labour is to themselves of primary import- ance, and against which the theoretic views of anti- e" ducation- ists will hardly be put in competition. Another important feature of those towns, as compared with others, is the care taken to provide accommodation for the poor in the places of public worship, which are generally filled to overflowing. The last- built church at Sheffield,' lately opened, has free sittings for considerably above 1000 persons, scarcely any of which are: unoccupied. Improvements, moral and religious, as well as civil and political, must be gradual, and, the work of the great body of the people, however individuals may seem to lead them. A great moral impulse is, now apparent, and the wealthy and influential should cordially co- operate with the clergy, in encouraging and directing it. Various are the minds of men, and various must be the means of effecting the object: dry lessons of morality will avail little with the oesti tute : the pre- disposing- causes which lead to ltie commission of crime should be searched for and rem. oved. Houses of refuge, Magdalen asylums, and female penitentiaries, are now being generally thought of, and in many places established. One of the former upon a large scale, for destitute prisoners on their discharge from confinement, is contemplated, or ( I rather think) in progress; and at Liverpool there is an excel- lent female penitentiary, solely under the direction of ladies. Comfort, economy, neatness, and order are its characteristics, and its arrangements do not permit any exhibition of t. he- inmates to the gaze of the visitor. Some such institutions must be coeval with plans of permanent improvement i what- ever has been found to succeed in one place, may be tried in another. Far be it from me to suggest any thing, ignorant a 1 must be of localities & of many controuling circumstances, but the lamentable fact of noon-* day profligacy. in your streets being published, the casual observations ofa traveller in other towns . may afford some hints to aid yo. ur benevolent views, and the better enable you to call public attention to them. Most happy should 1 be if this letter shall serve in anv way; you are at liberty to make what use you please of it; only do not allow me to be understood as meddling in the public'concerns of your town, or noticing the subject with any other view than to state, for the information of all classes," that whieh I saw to be commended in other places I have visited, and which it will give me equal pleasure to do elsewhere of Shrewsbury, A TRAVELLER. 24TII MAY, 1827. P; S. I have just learned that it is objected against the pro- posed Mendicity Society that it will cause an influx of beggars, and by giving them employment throw many of the ; native poor out of work. Judiciously managed, it will be found not to cause either. The necessity for, and advantage of, having some such voluntary institution in aid of, and to prevent an increase of, tbe poor- rates, will, 1 am satisfied, be more and more apparent to tbe Committee, as its enquiries shall be extended and information collected.

HAY- MAKING.— A Correspondent ofthe Chelten- ham Chronicle says :-— " The serious inconvenience felt when there is a deficiency of fodder, has been pretty well proved during the past and present year, more especially in the enormous price which hay has fetched, not only iu the eastern, but in tty. e western and northern counties of England. To increase, therefore, the efficacy of hay,; lis food foV horses and other Cattle, must be a desidera- tum of no small general advantage* " I have endeavoured to throw together a few observa- tions, deduced from the best theoretical arid' practical sources, on the most approved and profitable mode of hay- making; and if they should he found of any use to the farmers in this peculiarly agricultural county, my object will be fully attained :— It is too often the case9 that the farmer delays cutting his grass to a period when lie sustains a very serious loss by the decay and evaporation of the juicy essences of the stalk.— While the flowery stems are shooting up, and during the whole process of fructification, every species of grass, bul especially the poas and festucas ( meadow grasses) abound with saccharine matter. This is found parfien- arly in the joints of grasses, where, according to the idea of the Inte ingenious Dr. Darwin, a secretion of sugar takes place, and it is highly probable that from this source the nnlriinent afforded lry tbe plant is iu a great measure derived. As the seeds ripen into matur- ity, this sugar is found in. less abundance; and when they are quite ripe, the object of nature being attained* | he flowery stem and radical leaves begin to decay, and an absoutely dry trunk, if I may be allowed the ex- pression, is soon left. It appears that the fermentation,, or sweating as it is called, of hay in stack or barn, has the effect of communicating a flavour to it, which renders il much more palatable to ihe horses and c$ ttl « | which are fed upon it, than such as has never gone through lhat process. On this account every circum- stance tending to increase the fermentation to a degree which may not endanger the firing of the hay, or the rendering it excessively mow- burnt, is an object worthy the attention of the farmer; who will therefore net judiciously in cutting his grass, before the stems have lost that saccharine matter with which, during the process of fructification, they are filled, and which is undoubtedly the immediate cause of the subsequent sweating of the hay.— For the same reason the grass, especially that produced on a poor soil, should not, ire the process of hay- making, be too long exposed to the action of the sun and air,— otherwise tbe juices ore dried up, and the hay rendered less palatable and nutritious to the cattle fed upon it.— The proper time for cutting the meadow grasses, seems to be when ihe saccharine contents of the various grasses are in the greatest abundance. This appears to be when the seed is formed, but before it has arrived at perfect maturity, I f the grass is allowed to grow till the seed is completely ripe, not only the most nutritive part of llie vegetable is lost, but Ihe land is much more exhausted than it would have been had it been cut earlier.— At the same lime, the best season for o- elting the liny is passed over— the plants are become withered at the bott- in of their stems — the rooisare decayed— and ihe crop of the after-^ rass is materially lesseued in quantity," BANKRUPTS, MAY 2J>.— William Cooke, of Exeter, saddler and coach- makci'.— Samuel Popplewell I'nlhio, of Knnresbotouoh, money- scrivener.— John Rraeewell, of Liverpool, coal and flag- merchant.— John Walleu, of Leicester- place, piano forte- manufacturer.
