PRESTON Witness, JOHN RAYNEN. CENT, PER CENT. STREET, HUM, August 11, 18- 20. To Messrs. Lignum and Son. Physical State of England. [ FROM BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE tOR OCTOSEfc/] We love to break an insolent fellow's heart with his own stick ; and therefore, in discussing the impudent assertions of the liberals on the present state of affairs, we have, for argument's sake, planted their positions, and shown, that they arise out of the follv, or Some- thing worse than folly, of their own favourites, and are not to be attributed to the present ministers, who are fellows of the right sort, who will, we trust, in all their proceedings, go straight to the point, anil {- arc- fully eschew that political poison called conciliation. But as to real difficulties, there is no such ( biug, the continental fighting, and the Irish tranquillity, iu no- wise notwithstanding. England has the beating of • lie world, three times over again, in her stiil, and that the saucy knaves, who prate at such a rate just now, know well enough; though, now that they are permitted for awhile in France to print and publish their impertinence, they cannot help calling names, out of wretched spite for the drubbings they have got, and of which the smart, has not yet quite left their shoulders. \ Ve can afford to smile at this ridi- culous exhibition of wounded vanity. It is mighty easy to write inflated impudence, and get it printed in a newspaper; but when we meet by sea or land, with arms in our hands, we shall make short work of the argument. To he sure we have not been taught tile art of war, by having the enemy quartered in our capital. We have not had the benefit of a review of foreign troops within dilr squares, with their loaded cannon pointed against our public buildings, in case we dared to budge— advantages w hich certain of out' neighbours, who seem to be gifted with very short memories, have had the happiness to enjoy within a period not extremely remote. But still, we rather think that we can fight a little when it comes to flip push ; and to say nothing of our navy, because there is no novelty in its superiority, and its power to sweep the ocean of till the other navies in the world, — we are apt to think that we have now an army, which, for its number, — and even that is pretty for- midable,— is the finest the world ever saw. We should like, that is to say, if it were " our cue to fight," to take a given number of our army, say fifty thousand, and in a given place, say the field of Waterloo, with the proper appurtenances of artillery, & c. and just give any other army of the world a field day;— we should allow of French two to one; of Germans, Russians, Spaniards, Turks, three; of Italians, Portuguese, and any other you please, four ; and of any troops between Cape Horn antl Hudson's Bay, fifteen ; and we would stake a page of the Magazine against all I- a Comtc de Chateaubriand's works,— an immense odds, which we should not give if we were not sure,— that in ten hours, our fifty thousand would be undisputed masters of the field. But, say the groaners, it is not the army or the navy we fear, but the debt. " The debt, sir, it para- lyzes us, and prevents us from being able to go to war." What nonsense is this ! The debt may make us the less witling to go to war, until an important occasion arises for it; but it cannot affect our poux'r to do so, whenever the occasion becomes serious. Suppose that to- morrow morning the debt were not, would there be a single man, or gitn, or barrel of gunpowder, or any other material of war, the more, on account of its disappearance ? Certainly not. The fundholders cannot mark ff writ against our ships, and place them within " the rules of the Bench;" nor can they go down to the Courts at Westminster, and obtain a writ " ne exeat regno," directed to his Majesty's regiments of horse and foot. Let not foreign nations flatter themselves that the debt is to make us a prey to them ; for, if we should come to that pass that we cannot preserve the funds and the kingdom together, we should certainty not let both fall; and if the latter fell, the former must; therefore we would keep up the latter. The fuiid- holders themselves could not he so stupid as to say, you shall pay me interest this year in full, although, if you do so, you must refrain from going to war, antl thereby, when next year comes, there will be no government or funds here at all. The kingdom is to be considered first, and the fundholders next. We are able, and, under Providence we shall be able, to- take care of them both. We shall share our property, so long as no more immediate necessity of our country demands it, with the second; but for the first, no foreigner shall dictate terms to us, whatever may become of otir excellent and must esteemed friends, the fundholders. But when we were last fighting, we paid fifteen millions a- year more taxes than we do now, and pro- spered exceedingly : might we not do so again ? The objector says, " No ; because the amount of tax- ation you pay now, is really greater than when you appeared to pay fifteen millions more, on account of the changes which have taken place in the currency." Why, then, if the value of the money paid in taxation be so much increased, aud since the fuudholders get about three- fifths of that money, they must get much more than they used to do ; and as tliey can hardly expect to do so, if we are once more engaged in war, they should only go back to the old scale again. We are told, however, that any arrangement which should in the least touch the fundholders, would create such a dreadful confusion, such a frightful convulsion, and so forth, that the kingdom would be shaken to pieces. We do not believe anv such thin". We English are rather a cool, prudent people, parti- cularly where money matters are concerned, and are apt to bear either a loss or a gain with very consider- able equanimity. We are not Frenchmen, to get into an ecstacy when we win, or an agony when we lose; antl we can do what, the occasion demands, without rushing upon extravagance. We therefore think, that should the time ever come, that the fund- holders should be obliged to make a sacrifice of a part of their revenues, for the sake of the preservation of the remainder, it will be done calmly and quietly, after the manner of our nation. But wc fight with shadows.— Be it known to the foreigner, who presumes tu sneer at us upon the pre- sent state of affairs, that we can fight with men when the occasion arrives.

' PUNTING POOH MOUT LAND.— Besides paring and burning and trenching- the soil previous to making the plantation, spread on it marl and farm- yard dung, as for a commmon agricultural crop, aud at the same time keep the surface perfectly free from weeds by hoeing, till the young trees have completely covered the ground. The progress that they make under this treatment is so extremely rapid, as apparently to justify, in an economical point of view, the extraordinary expenses that attend it. In three years, even oaks and other usually slow- growing forest trees, have covered the land, making shoots by three feet in a season, aud throwing out roots well qualified, by their uuinb"!- and length, to derive from the subsoil abundant nourishment in proportion as the surface becomes exhausted. When a new physician or surgeon is called in to repair the blunders of a previous operator, the remedies which he adopts too often fail, owing to the extent of the previous mischief, which lie is unable to repair. Such is, in some measure it must be admit ted, the case with tile new Foreign Secretary, Lord Aberdeen ; into whose bands the department over which he presides has f'alleu with an inheritance of tearings, which Lord Aberdeen, or any other man, would, we should th in It, he most happy to be without.

SALOPIAN JOURNAL* AMP COURIER OF WALES. i ON DON— SATURDAY. The Paris papers of Tuesday convoy to tliis coun- try two bulletins ot' the Turkish Army according to which their force, acting continually on the offensive, Kive. beetV successful in their attacks upon all points; and the whole of the important posts which the Russians had fortified with so much qire, have been taken and occupied by the Ottoman troops. The military road to Choumla had been rendered com- pletely free; and the invaders were compelled to retreat, bavin* previously set fire to all the works they bad begun to erfcet. Subsequently three divisions of the Turkish army attacked the Russian ramp at Jenibasar, four null's from Choumla, and after an action of four hours obtained a complete victory, compelling- their opponents to retreat into the surrounding woods. The general result of these operations, they state, are the abandonment of the positions of Meraseh, Velibey, and Tiinurdschi, by the Russians ; and that the. Turkish Commander had Ween enabled to continue his arrangements to force nis discomfited opponents to an absolute retreat. The regular- disciplined troops now forming part of the Turkish army, arc said to have greatly con- tributed to the advantages obtained over the Rus- sians. MILITARY FORCF. OF TURKEY.— It has for some time been the ftistiH)-' ( we can use no other term) to Under- rate the military strength of the Ottomans; But such depreciatory statements generally issne from the partisans of Greece— and of Russia, as the supposed most active champion of Greek independence — and are, therefore, to lie received with caution some of them are manifestly quite absurd. Before the breaking out of the present contest, it was confidently asserted, that, after leaving sufficient garrisons in Syria, Asia Minor, and the capital, the • Sultan would not have a disposable force of 30,00!) men to oppose the Russians. The fact, however, is, that nearly four times that number now occupy the fortresses north of the Balkan mountains; and front personal observation we know, that at. Adriffnople Slid in the capital about 200,000 are now training after the Eiwopetin discipline. Besides, numbers are aiiw on their way from Syria and Asia Minor to Constantinople. On the whole, then, we arc justified, we think, in estimating the military force ( if Turkey at 350,000 - a force, too, which unquestionably admits of increase. Should the Russians succeed in penetrating to the capital, they will there have to oppose a countless multitude, headed by the Sultan in person, and under the sacred standard of Mahomet. '- Foreign Quarterly lieview. BLOCKADE or THE DARDANELLES.— Of this question, says the Courier, different views are taken by different writers. By some it is at once assumed that we must become the enemy of Russia— that all the ties- which bound its to the Emperor are broken— and that the Treaty of London, as far as regards him, is only so much waste paper. By others it is taken for granted that more important consequences even than a rupture with Krtssia must be inspected— that France, by having placed herself in such a situation as to render a declaration of war against her on the part of Turkev a probable event, will be thrown into the belli gerent settle with Russia, and that the Treaty of London, which was to lie etiectcd by pacific means— that is, by the abstinence of the parties to it from faking port with either of the contending parties— will thus have received its death blow. Russia, nevertheless, however she may have surprised ns by the forfeiture of her pledge, which she had given so freely, and which entitled her to the highest praise for sincerity and generosity, has not given us such cause for offence as fo render it necessary tor lis to go to war. This is our reply to those who jump at Once to the conclusion, that non- co- operation and war are synonymous. The Treaty of London therefore is NOT at an end. We have ceased, or rather it may he inferred that we shall cease to co- operate with Russia, when she assumes the belligerent character in the Mediterranean. Bid tllat is all. She continues our ally, though the co- operation of our fleets may cease. THE REVENUE.— The result of the Quarter's Revenue, made up to the K) th instant, sh- ws an increase upon the quarter,, as compared with that of last year, of £' il7,55Ss By the subjoined ah- slrncl of the official ae. onnt, it will be t » een that under the head 8f Excise there is an increase of Jt'" 66,5!! 9. in the Customs there is a decrease of fSMJRtG. This decrease a'rises chiefly from the difference between the sunts received 011 account of the duties 011 corn iu this unci the corresponding quarter; iu the quarter ending October VO, 1827, the sum of t' 657,13S was received on account of those duties, whereas iu the present quarter oiilv • the sum of £ 90,000 has been received. Under the bead of Stamps there appears to be a positive decrease of ±"( 1,106; under that of the Posf- otfice a decrease of £ 7,000 ; and under that of'!' axes of £ 13,7( 17. The decrease tinder the head Miscella- neous, ainoiintiuu to £ 108,424, is stated to be only apparent, as Ihe sum of £ 170,000 was received in the corresponding quarter iu repayment of an advance for the re- eoinage of silver for the service of Ireland.

Mr. Corbeti; therefore, on their behalf to day moved that the Court direct the case to be settled forthwith ; and iu support thereof, be put in the following- affidavit. Between the Churchwardens and Overseers of the Poor / of the Parish of Culmington, Appellants, and the Churchwardens and Overseers of tlie Poor of the Parish of Eaton, Re- spondents William Dowries, of Ludlow, in the County of Salop; Attor- ney for tlie above- uamed appellants, maketh oath, and saith, that the above;- mentioned appeal, touching the removal of 8am'uel Morris, Mary his wife, and their two children, from ti e at'o. e= aid parisli of Eaton to the aforesaid Parish of Cal in ngt m, came on for hearing before his Majesty's Justices of the t'eace assembled at the last General ( Quarter Sessions of the I'ea. e, field in and for the County of Salop, on Monday, the fourteenth day of July last, when after the argument Of counsel, o i both sides,, and tlie examination of the several witnesses p. oduced by the respective parties, the Court, by their Chair- man, ( Thomas Pembertou, Esquire,) continued . the order of i removal. : And this deponent further saith that . Mr. Corbett, one of the counsel for the above- named appellants, immediately on the decision ot the Court being pronounced, and at the instance of this deponent, applied to the Court lot a case for the opinion of the Court of King's Bench tlieretw^ to which the Chairman ( Mr. Pemberton) immediately replied. " cer- tainly." That Mr. Bather, counsel for the above- named respondents, then got up and addressed the court, and said 44 1 believe it is " not uSu'. l to grant a case where the Court are unanimous in "' their. decision,- which 1 understand to be the case in this. in- " sumce," or words to that effect. Ti. al the Chairmwa replied to Mr. Bather, and'Said " That " that might be the practice, but there could be no objection to give'the parties a case if they wished it," or words to that effect. That the Reverend Mr. Corfield, one of the magistrates then sitting on the bench, on hearing Mr. Bather's observation, got up and Said'" That the Bench were not unanimous, for that * he Legged to differ from the decision which had been given," or woi ds to that effect. And this deponent further saith, that no opposition to the granting of a case was made by the counsel for the respondents or the Court, as. this deponent believes, and that Mr. Corbett, the counsel for the appellants, then asked the Chairman to state the grounds on which the Court confirmed the order, that it might be accurately stated in the case, to which the Chair- man replied " we find fraud," or words to that effect. That both the counsel for the said appellants then iiidotsed the briefs held by them Of this depolieut to this effect, " Case granted." And this deponent further sarth. that the jiniKrf counsel for the said appellants ( Mr. Williams) shortly after wards,: and before the Court - adjourned, drew a draft of the intended ; cast^ letting forth the facts, and handed the same to Mr. \ Vliateley, the junior counsel for the said respondents, for his petusul and approval on their behalf, as is usual in SircB casv'sr^ ltfch draft' the said Mr. Whateley did peruse in court, and ih pa^ t settled the same in benalf of the sard respondents,- by making alter- ations therein in his own handwriting, but informed this deponent that he could not finally settle the same '\ itthout having his brief again; which his client had taken away; And this deponent further saith, that the Said Mr. whateley retained the draft of such case, and this dejv> nent wtfiit in search ofthe respondents' attorney, to request nim to send his brief to Mr. Whateley, when this deponent found he had left Shrewsbury, am? taken the papers with him. That tliis de- ponent then went Hick to the said Mr. Whateley and informed him thereof, and he requested this deponent to tell the attorney for the respondents to send him his brief, or thatj; < is: it was probable both this deponent and the said attorney for the respondents wortld be at the' then ensuing assizes for this county, that the case could be then settled, as it would make no difference, for that it could not come on for argument in the Court of King's Bench before the' ensuing Michaelmas Term. That this deponent, on going to Ludlow, ( the residence of this deponent, and also of the said attorney for the respondents,) infofrnt ef the said attorney what had passed with the Court and tin; said respondents counsel ( Mr. Whateley), but the said attorney refused to forward his brief to Mr. Whateley, or to consent to his settling the draft case, and this dfeponent hath' iu consequence been unable to obtain the same,- And this deponent lastly saith, that previous to leaving Shrewsbury at tl » q' lust General Quarter Sessions, and after he had seen Mr. WlYateley oil the subject of the said case, and found that it could not then be finally settled, he went into court, while the same was sitting, and informed either Mr. John Loxdale or Mr. Joshua Peele, who was then officiating as the officer of: the court, that the aforesaid case could not then be settled for the reasons before statedand this deponent expressly asked if it would make any difference whether " the case was then settled or not, in answer to which this ' deponent was informed that it would not make any difle'reuce, aiid- that if this deponent would send the ease when ' Settled by the re- spective eounsel, lie would take Care of it, or, womsi to that effect.

Mr. Temple, Mr. Meeson, and Mr. Loxdale, bar risters, in court dufhig" the trial of the appeal at the last Sessions, all bore testimony of the Court having-, as they understood, granted a case. The Chairman, however, said that as neither the Clerk of the Peace nor himself had auy minute of it, Ihe Court could not grant a case. — The prisoner, who described himself as a native of A me r Tea, was very leniently sentenced to 3 months' imprisonment. MICHAEL LYNCH, ag- ed 56, a miserable- looking Irishman, was found guilty of stealing- 3 steH, from the cottage of Charles Harvey at Pitchford, no person being therein but aJittle girl eleven years bid.— The case w as very ' Clearly proved, and the prisoner was sentenced to be imprisoned 3 caleudar months; at the expiration of which time he will be passed to Ireland. After the' trial of the prisoners had concluded; Mr. Whateley,- on the part of Mrs. Frances Austin, of Wem, brought before the Court a complaint against the President and Stewards of the Wellington Annuity Society, of which her deceased hus- band, Mr. Austin, had been a member, and from which Society she claimed to be entitled to an annuity from the time. of his death, and during the term of her life. On the part of the Society, Mr. Bather contended, that the case had been already decided upon by. the Magistrates assembled in Petty Sessions at Prees, who had given their opinion, that Mrs. Austin was not entitled to an annuity until 1834, and recommended the parties to compromise the matter. This, Mr. Bather coiu tended, ' was a decision, of the case, and he said/ the Society were willing to pay Mrs. Austin what Mr. Morgan, the actuary, should think, an annuity for the remainder of her life from 1834 was worth. Mr-. Whateley contended, first, that there should have been an order by the Magistrates, in writing? 2dly, that the Magistrates at Prees had no jurisdiction to make any decision, as they could only determine upon Rules regularly confirmed, which those upon which the' Society relied were not, as he contended; and 3dly, that the Magis- t. ates had exceeded the subject matter ofthe complaint before them, which was the arrears then due, and that they could not make, a prospective order. The Bench, however, considered that the case had already been decided by a competent juris- diction, and refused to enter upon the hearing of it.— Mr. Whateley said a mandamus would be applied for, by which the opinion of the Court of King's Bench could be taken upon the point. Among the Magistrates present were Thomas Pemberton, Esq. ( Chairman), the Earl of Powis, the Viscount Clive, the Hon. Thomas Ken yon, the Rev. Herbert Oakeley, D. D. Thomas Whitmore, Esq.

ANN BAGI. KY, with whom the last prisoueHod^ ed, was tried upon two indictments, for stealing; books and other articles, from the houses of persons by whom she was employed » and she was found guilty on that which charged her with robbing Mr, William Smith, of Wellington, printer.— The Chairman, iii passing sentence, sard he had no doubt she was guilty of the thaiges laid in both i n diet men I-*, and of other similar oftenCPS ' y and she wai sentenced to he imprisoned ( i months, accompanied with a warning never lo appear before the seat of justice on any further charge of crime Jonn BBADLBY, aged 13, and WJI. LIAM BRADLEY, aged J4, were convicted of stealing a watch, the pro. perty of William Hinsley, from an engine hou « e in the parish of Broseley. — The prn ® ecVitor is an engineer, • and the two bojs having asked for shelter, he kindly permitted them lo sleep in the engine house, and when they got up in the morning, they committed the rob- bery.— The prisoners stated that they came from Staffordshire, and stole ihe watch, for, the purpose of selling it lo buy food ; and one of the jurymen, Mr Lawrence, of Wellington, having suggested that son. e questions shonld be put to the boys as to their situa- tion, it appeared that they were orphans ; that they had worked with a person named Bate in the mines near Wolverhampton', and were looking through the country for work when they stole the watch,— Mr. Lawrence said he knew Bate, and thought such boys would be very gladly received and employed by ihe charter- masters of the Staffordshire mines.— Sentence was, in consequence, very humanely deferred by the Bench, until enquiries could be made, through Mr. Lawrence, as to their future employment. JOHN THOMPSON, aged 36, was convicted of stealing three shirts, and various other articles of apparel, & c. Ihe property of William Bromley.— This was one of those cases, iu which, for the honour of our country, we are glad the prisoner is a foreigner.— The prose- cutor, who is a sea- faring man, and a fine specimen of one that bad seen some service, was going from Shrewsbury to his ship at Liverpool ; he stopped to take some refreshment at the Fox Inn, Albrighton ; when the prisoner came in to solicit the charity of the company, some of whom were inclined to jeer him, or, as the. prosecutor termed it, " insult him," when the prosecutor, finding that he was a seaman, begged they would not insult him, and paid for refreshment for him ; they eventually left the house to go on the way to Liverpool together; the prosecutor, under- standing that his companion was footsore, patd a iuan to let him ride in his cart, paid for his dinner at Wem, and for his supper, bed, & e. at Tilstock ; he also paid for Iris breakfast next morning ; yet, when they got a little beyond Whitchurch, the ungrateful seoundret robbed tlie prosecutor of his bundle of clothes, which he had voluntarily taken up to carry, and with which he made off to Whitchurch, where he was luckily apprehend* d in the act of trying to sell then). POLICE OF SHREWSBURY.— We noticed in a former Journal, that at a recent meeting of the Corporation, a Committee had been appointed to enquire into the State and Efficiency of the Police of this town and liberties. The Committee have since made their Re- port; and as we are sure the Gentlemen who drew up that Report are most anxious that the inhabitants of the town and its liberties, whose interests are the objects of their consideration, and out of whose pockets any expense that their propositions may tend to originate must eventually come, should be in full possession of those views which the Committee have adopted, we have, as public Journalists, thought it our duty to insert a copy of the Report in our columns ; and it will be found in our 4th page. In our Fair on Tuesday and Wednesday last, Fat Sheep averaged 6d. per lb.— Pigs ^ OLD at much lower prices than at the preceding Fair.— Fat Cattle sold at from 5^ D. to fid. per LB,; Stores sold at about the prices of late Fairs; and Cows and Calves sold well.— Butter in tubs sold at from 9jd. to lOd. per lb.— Best Cheese 55s. to 65s. per cwt.— Bacon 7d. to 7JD. and Hams 8| d. to 9jd. per lb. Mr. Massey, a respectable farmer, tenant to Sir Robert Lawley, in coming to our fair, early on Wednesday morning last, was brutally attacked by two ruffir. ns, near Acton Burnell, who knocked him off his horse, and robbed him of £ 69. 10s. Edward Barnett, whose apprehension for the mur- der of Esther Stephens at Monmouth, was noticed in our last, has been fully committed to Monmouth Gaol, to take his trial for that horrid crime. ACCIDENTS.— On Friday last, Mrs. Elizabeth Farr, a resident of the Pound Street, Bridgnorth, was burnt to death. The deceased was a maiden lady, aged 72 years -, she kept no servant; and it is supposed that in going to bed her clothes caught fire. She was found burnt iu a shocking manner. On Tuesday, about eight o'clock in the evening, Mr. David Prichard, of Bridgnorth, dancing- master, after attending the pupils of Mrs. Stringer's Academy at Chehnarsh, 3 miles from Bridgnorth, took a walk on the banks of the river Severn ; soon " after a barge came in sight, and he went on board and seated hirftself on the deck j subsequently, on rising from his seat, he slipped and fell overboard. The night being dark and the water high, and there being only two young men in care of the vessel, no assistance could be givenhe was consequently drowned, and the body has not yet been recovered. C> N Monday night, the 6th inst. the dwelling house of Mr. Morris, of Berghill, near Oswestry, in this county, was entered and robbed of a very consider- able sum in local notes, & c.— The thieves must have gained admittance* by means of picklock keys, as the doors and places rifled were all re- locked. Unfor- tunately, pursuit was not made in the direction of this town as soon as the robbery was discovered ; for, on Tuesday, Hayward, one of our police officers, observed that a. well- known character, recently dis- charged from our Gaol, was much more flush of money than could be honestly accounted for, and very properly took him in custody ; he was examined before the Magistrates, but as there was no charge against him, and no intelligence of any robbery with which it was probable that he could have been con- cerned had been received, it was thought expedient, under the circumstances, to liberate him; this was done, and he took himself off next night. The rob- bery of Mr, Morris's house having subsequently become known, and some circumstances attending it leaving scarcely a doubt that the individual above alluded to was a principal party, Farlow, another very active member Of our Police, set out on the London road, on Sunday last; and we trust we shall in our next publication have to record the apprehen- sion and committal of at least one of the parties in this atrocious offence. THEATRE.— This well- conducted place of amuse- ment has much increased in popularity. The season bids fair to be most prosperous, and the success is met by gr< sit liberality on the part of the manager, Mr. Bennett, who seems anxious to present his patrons with a succession of attractive novelties, and it would be injustice to him and the dramatic corps under his able and spirited superintendence, not. to state, that while several of the performers exhibit promising, and some among them even first- rate talent, they all, with scarce an exception, rise above mediocrity in their respective departments. Mr. Macready closed an engagement of three nights on Wednesday last to an overflowing house and is succeeded by the African Roscius, of whom report speaks very highly. WALES.

[ FROM THE MANCHESTER CHRONICLE.] In noticing- this event we have the pride and pleasure to communicate to our Readers one of the most splendid testimonies of public feeling that ^ an possibly be imagined. With whatever satisfaction we mjiy inflect On the termination of our Festival, never had the inhabitants of Manchester more reason to congratulate tbemsclves than on their reception of Mr. Peel. The dinner given to the Right Honourable Gentleman, attended as it was, by a body of men so nuinerous— so influential— and so Capable of the just appreciation of, public merit and private virtue, was in every respect worthy of a great community. It was creditable to the character of Manchester, and it must have been highly gratifying to the distinguished guest. The unqualified expression of respect and gratitude he recei\ ed must, indeed, have exci! ed in his breast, emotions of the most enviable kind. We can almost imagine them to have more than . com- peirs ited for years of indefatigable exertion. Actuated by. the noblest, ambition-— guided by the purest motives, and preserving through every stage of his political life, an entire independency of character^ Mr, Peel enjoys a more unbounded confidence, than perhaps was ever before reposed in any public man. The g uardian of our liberties— the political Champion of the national Faith, it is on him that., : in every season of alarm, the eyes of the people. of England are; now fixed. But whilst the whole Country ap- preciates his services and relies, on his vigour,—- it must have been peculiarly delightful to him to have witnessed in a - town which he considers as his native place, the manifestation of that high opinion which his abilities and integrity have earned. It was the triuenpli o" C public virtue, and an animating spectacle to K^ Very honourable mindj to pursue, by means equally pure and unsullied, some degree'of the same distinction. Nor do we look upon the late public dinner as interesting merely from the Opportunity afforded the town of Manchester of expressing to Mr." Peel its ackiiowlrdgments of his services. It is interesting and important on another coriMderatidh. We shall not eiisify forget the enthusiasm that pervaded the assembly on every allusion to the interests of the \: Profest< mt ]\ eli(/ iov— the deafening cheers with which the Protestant Ascendancy was hailed. We want wo other evidence of the sentiments of, tlie most respectable portion of our community on tliis vital qtiiCstion : they were suiTicientiy displayed on the evqnjiig of Blortday. If we u ad been disposed to apprehend that the public mind was' not alive to the dati^ er thai threatens the security of our Religion, or licit careful to avert it, we should have been abundantly Convinced, by tlie display eff feeling on that occasion, that our apprehensions were unfounded. iNever did we witness a more unanimous expression on aiiy ' subject: every individual seemed to Consider himself embarked in the cause,- and desirous of shew- mg hw zeal to support it. There were no fanatics or ^( ft\ t: ijvers present, stirring up the fives of Religious hut Il » e friends of civil and religious libeijtif all over the World-*- men, as little likely to be a cajoled of their Religion by the. sophistry of Infidelity, ^• willing to silb'rnit. to the yoke of Popish tyranny. 4f Tlie Men of Manchester," among whom a flirr. sy Appeal to desert their principles had been widely i- irculated, acted with " consistency and honour; they have proved that if their spirit may sometimes slnfni) er, it will never sleep,— and that, if it ever should be necessary for them to exert their strength, they will not. be unmindful of what, they owe to TUEMSEL ves— their Country— and their GOD.

He states in express terms that ' it depends upon the Catholic Association whether the clergy shall receive their incomes or not, Hand that i it depends upon a single breath, a single resolution of the Catholic Association, whether the landlords are to be robbed of . their rents or not'— and he states further, that i the association has subdued two- thirds of Ireland by its denunciations more completely than Oliver Cromwell or King William ever subdued the country by the sword, 1 adding that * the aristocracy, the clergy, the gentry, are all prostrate before it. 1 " It must be remembered that, these are the words of. a person Who is not only a member of the present government, but who occupies a place in it which is only inferior in knowledge and in confidence to a cabinet councillor - and although we by no means'admit that the representation given above is, frf ' all respects, correct, but are convinced that the Protestant feeling,, and the power of those who are willing to uphold the constitution iu church and state in this part of the empire, are very much under- rated— yet it cannot but be evident, from this humi- liating confession * jy a member of his Majesty's government, as well as from what is daily, passing before, our own eyes, that the danger is imminent, and that the period is now arrived when ( as • truly observed in your graceV; letter) i ire must, decide whether we will range ourselves with Pro- iestants or with Papists. 3 a Under these impressions, my lords, and associated as we are for the put- pose of expressing our firm and unshaken attachment to the Protestant constitution of these realms in church and state, and resisting the open efforts now making for its subversion, we beg leave to express the high value we set on your manly and excellent letters, to assure you of our gratitude for your public- spirited exertions in the cause of the constitution, and our earnest anxiety, by every means in our power, to co- operate with your lordships in whatever may tend to preserve inviolate that dearest birthright of a Briton. " By order,. " & ATiiDO\ VNtf, Secretary." The following observations on the remarkable Fiice nomena, of Sept. 29th, we're made in the South of Herefordshire. At nine P. M. a lucid' arch of a pure white, which had no doubt been some time visible, was observed j extending completely from E. N. E. to W. S. W. and crossing the meridian at an altitri. de of per!\ aps 60 degrees. It might be about I degree broad at the E. extremity its width gradually in- creased to 3 or 4 degrees on the - meridian, from which it. again diminished to a point 12 or 15 degrees above the S. VV. h. ori?.( » n, where it was broad, and particularly luminous: from this point to the horizon, the arch was very visibly deflected, from- its regular direction, to- wards. the - N. or right hand. It was observed to pass from the Pleiades, directly across Alpheratz, through Pegasus, abox'e Delphinus and Athair, and across the Galaxy in S. W. Its brightness in different portions varied continual ly., in an extremely striking manner: nor was it ever equally bright throughout its- whole length. In the fainter parts it resembled tlie Galaxy; in other places it was about twice as luminous, but the, remarkable bright portion towards its western end much exceeded this average: it did not seem to ob- scure the star's over Which it passed. While these observations were made it rapidly but irregularly declined in strength, first fading entirely at the eastern extremity ; and shortly after, a'Kout -) h. 15m , clouds drove rapidly over that part of the sky. During this time, there were heavy masses of cloud in the North, behind which was a. considerable brightness: tfris be- came more visible at 9h. 30m., and was evidently the true Aurora Borealis. It was a straw- coloured light, of « ome intensity, which extended from N. to N. VV, and tedched to 7 or 8 degrees of altitude : it rested upon a real oir apparent- bank of dusky vapour, low in the horizon, ( an appearance frequent upon these occa- sions^) close to which it was brightest; becoming gradually fainter towards its Upper part. Tiiis light, though frequently varying in intensity and extent, aqd often much obscured by clouds, continued con- stantly visible to the end of the. Observations. About, 9b. 20m.. the effect of a very faint, flash of lightning or meteor was perceived; from what quarter it Came was uncertain; M 9h. 30m. the sky being clearer, exhibited faint white patches, which produced a mottled effect, above Ursa Major, and W. of the Pole; and a similar appearance was thought to exist where the lucid arch had before been most elevated. At 9h. 45m. the Aurora in the N. horizon Mas strong; and, portions of it resting on the dusky base, became suddenly much more bright, with a tremulous motion, continually changing place, and seeming like an illumination occasioned by a strong light playing be- hind or within the dark vapour beneath. Four or five streamers now rose to 10 or 12 degrees of altitude, through the clear sky in the - N. W.; but the; appear- ance was taint a « d very transient: they evidently had for their bases the brightest of these moving lights, ( as they may be called to distinguish them both from the tranquil Aurora in which they played, and the streamer^ which rose from them). The streamers were not vertical, but inclined a little to the left: this appearance, founded perhaps upon aerial perspective, was particularly observed in the Aurora of Sept. 25, 3827, of wliich a full account has been given in the Quarterly Journal of Science, No. 4. The light soon after became tranquil, and seemed much exhausted, excepting in the N. The light of the moon now be- came visible ; the Aurora, as contrasted with it> had a decidedly yellow tinge- At 10h. 10m. one or two streamers rose vertically in the N. and afterwards a few more extended in length in the N. M. W. t. o which quarter the light seemed again extending. The ob- servations were discontinued for 10m.; after which, the sky was found to be much overcast, the Aurora being merely visible between heavy clouds above and below it: but the moving lights were strong, commencing in the N W. and extending to the N. At lOh. 30m. the light was less clouded and more tranquil : heavy clouds still floated above it, beneath which a patch of light was seen which did not extend downwards to the dusky base of the Aurora : this was a solitary occurrence. Atl0h. 50m. it received a sudden increase of eftergy : the moving lights appeared through its whole length, from N. W. to N. with greater permanency : very dark clouds above them obscured the streamers, which would otherwise have no doubt been visible. At 10b. 52m. a brilliant falling star was seen just, at the N. VV. end of tine jphqpiiomenon, descending with a short Course nearly to the horizon. Immediately afterwards, one of the moving lights appeared due N. which had some permanency. It was very bright, notwithstanding the light of the moon, of a deeper yellow colour than the rest, and much better defined on its eastern than on the western side: it might have been termed a column, and seemed to form the boundary of the Aurora on the right hand : its upper part was lost in clouds. At lib. when the observations were closed, the light seemed more tranquil. The wind was high, though extremely uncertain throughout. : it blew from the W. S. W. a. direction which has been frequently observed on these occasions : fiie clouds were, very low. On, the following night, no traces of the phoenomenon could be seen, though the sky was very favourable, and the wind nearly the same. On Oct. 2d there were several thunder- storms. It is much to be wished, that these, observations could be compared with others made in different places. The . variation in the apparent altitude of the aich, as seen from different stations, would give its true height above the earth; a point of some interest to the lovers of meteorology. The . remarkable appearance of deflexion in its western extremity is also an object of curiosity. The iucid arch was seen ai Hereford and Ross by many persons ; but the- ' appearances in the North seem not to have been so generally; remarked. A- correspondent of the Literary Gazette gives the following account of this- singular phenomenon as it was observed at Headley, a village near Liphook, Hants: « On Monday e vening last, I saw ( says the writer) a luminous appearance in the heavens, extending from the west to the zenrtlf, and thenee more faintly towards the east, so as to tbrni a narrow arch. In the west tlve base of the bow was narrowest, and, as it were, confined. The light was also there most concentrated. Had it not been so, I should have taken it for the Aurora Borealis. It was not a cloud, for the stars were seen distinctly, but dimly, through it. The appearance altogether was that ofa luminous vapour, or the prodigious tail of a comet, streaming over the heavens, which were perfectly unclouded ; and the stars seemed to shine with peculiar brilliancy, except wli- re crossed by the phenomenon above- mentioned. There was a rushing wind, and the thermometer only at 50 within doort Many falling 9tars of unusual splendour were seen at the same time. It would be difficult to convey an idea of the awful effect of this archway of light, which, ( as the moon was not yet risen) appeared of terrific brightness. It continued in strength about an hour, when it began to bear away to the south, as if carried by a wind, to grow paler, and to become more diffused. Shortly after a very dark vapour arose in the west, and concealed it from view altogether. A poor woman informs rite that she sa- w a similar appearance three weeks ago ; but the oldest inhabit- ants of the village do not remember having previously seen any thing at all like it." A scientific writer, in the Salisbury Jourva1, in his remarks upon the same subject, asserts, that it is What is called by Horwalt, the German Philosopher, Trails Eleetrica, or Electric Beam, and that the cause is the same as that, of the Aurora Rorealis, namely, electricity In many places, after its disap- pearance, the true Aurora liovealis was observed to shine forth with great splendour. fSUoccUaafouis tutdUgcncr. I\ 7r. Secretary Peel visited Liverpool on Tiicsdny evening, and devoted the morning of the following day to a minute inspection of the docks, public wurks, and establishments of that port. The f.- eedom o! the borough was afterwards presented to hirri in due form; and in the evening the- Right Hon. jGgiitjetiiaii was present at a dinner given, in honour of His visit, by the Mayor, of which about ninety gent- lumen par- took. Nothing of a political nature occurred during the entertainment; the Right Hon. Gentlerrim in acknowledging the enthusiastic manner in wliicll his health was drank, confined his observations to i '.!-.• iin. pressions excited in his mind by t! » e attentions paid him, and by the objects which had for the first time met his view. « I wa. s desirous ( said the Right Hon. Secretary) . to see a town where the interests of the commercial world concentrate, and where the' iiitelli. gence, the spirit; the enterprise, and tlie worth of its inhabitants have ennobled the character of tlie British merchant., and shed such a bistre nj5on the coilntry.

My heart is too much overpowered with' yoitr kindness, and 1 cannot even attempt to do justice to' my feelings " CHARGE OF FORGERY, I. IVEKT'ORRR,:— SThe fol- lowing is an outline of the charge against Sir. Wil- liams, solicitor, of. Liverpool, f. r tlie forgery of a mortgage deed. The examiirafioris! Were co'ntinued nearly, every day last, week, and on Siturday Mr, M'Clellan, . a solicitor, of Stiiiife^, ami Mik M'Clel- lan ( formerly Miss Mather; liis step- mother, who lent the money on the deed stated to be forged, having arrived,, their examinations were taken, aud . Mr. Williams was committed for trial. Mis. M'Clellan was very much, affected whilst giving her evidence, ami her emotion produced a visible effect 011 the accused, who has, with' this exception, maintained the most collected denteanrfr, having taken notes of the . examinations, arid , so'm'etinies cross- examined the witnesses. Mrs. M'Clellaii stated that, her maiden name was Elizabeth Mather, and that she married Mr. James M'Clellan about two years aud a half since. In July, 182!\ lie was on a visit of seven or1 eight weeks to Mrs. Williams, who was her very particular friend, iri Liverpool; she then mentioned : tlfot she expected to have £ 30( 1 or £ 400 to put out, if Mr. Wiiljiuns kiietf of a desirable investment for if. In the course of the next winter he wrote to her at • Nottingham, and mentioned that he could get a very excellent mortgage for £ 650; a corresp ludciice ensued on the Subject, and. on the 5th of May, 1825,• she remitted him.£ 630. He acknowledged the re-, ceipt of the money, but did not send the deed till July. She then liicke. l it up without exartiining it. The date of the deed was the tst of July, and Mr. Williams oniy paid her interest from thattime, which she thought extraordinary, but said nothing about it. She received interest for two half years, but for the last two years she hi'd received no interest. When she married, the money secured by this mortgage was settled OF) herself, and the deed was wait to Ml'- John M'Clellan, who had to prepare the niarriagg. settle- ment. She saw Mr. Williams it her husband's house iu March last, ami had some conversation with him about the interest, but could not at all understand his statements He said that the person who had ( he money would probably not be able to hold , it, but. that, the property Was vei'y desirable, and he thought he Should take it himself. It appeared, from the examination of Mr. J. M'Clellan, that he had sus- pected the deed was not quite right; and seeing the interest was not paid, he wrote to Mr. Williams repeatedly; and still riot receiving it,. he threatened legal proceedings. In July lie received a letter from Mr. Williams's clerk, stating that Mr. W. was out of. lown, but that he (} he clerk) had prepared a deed fur transfer ring the mortgage to him. On examination, - Russell stated that he wrote that letter by his master's Order, and from a draught given to hiin ; that Mr. Williams was pot out of town when the letter w n sent, and that he had not, prepared any deed of trans- fer like that spoken of in the letter. The signature of the deed, W. Gafrer, was witnessed by Mr. Wil- liams ( tile prisoner) arid George Williams, his office- . boy ; the latter stated 011 examination that he did not see the deed signed by Garner, though he himself had signed it as a witness. — When all the examina- tions had l> een gone through, Ihe prisoner was asked by the Mayor if he had e. ny thing to say, and at the same time he informed him that, what he might say would be taken down in writing, and given in evidence at his trial. The prisoner said he should decline saying any thing at present. He then handed a letter to tile Mayor, requesting that he might lie allowed to remain for a short time I uiger in Liver- pool, for the purpose of seeing his friends, and arranging his affairs. The request Was complied with, and an order was given that his friends should have access to him, which had hitherto been refused. After his apprehension the prisoner made an attempt upon his own life, since which tiirie two persons have always been in the room with him; but he has been , perfectly composed and franqu I, and has employed himself in reading and writing. The same precaution will still, however, be observed in keeping him, anil in a few days he will probably be removed t> » Lancaster Castle. The witnesses were bound over, in recognizances of £ 200 each', to appear and give evidence at the trial. EXTENSIVE FORGERY — A very extensive, forgery has been committed upon the banking firm of Sir William Curtis and Co. The extent is stated at. £ 5000, arid to have beeu effected by imitated acceot- aiices of one of tbe most eminent mercantile houses. The name of the aci'used is Joseph // anion, and it. appears that he took the acceptances himself to the banking house, and received the amount. It is also reported, that he relied upon his success in this spe- culation so far as to make similar experiments else- where, and that, he succeeded to the amount of between £ 13,000 and £ 14,000. Although he had not been for some years recognized by the Socie'y of Friends as one of their body, on account of some irregularities in his conduct,, there never had been npori any occasion the slightest suspicion of his integrity. On the contrary, he could ea. ily have obtained credit for more money tha 1 he acqui e i by this offence. He was seen 011 Saturday evening iii London by several persons, but immediately after wards absented himself. He has- twelve. or ih'rteen children, arid resided for the most, part in the country, where he has a very comfortable bouse ami establish- ment. He is in person well known, is a little mail, and walked the streets in an extraordinarily erect manner, wore large spectacles, and always appeared in quaker's atiire. He was discovered on Tuesday by a police officer in pursuit of him, and taken out of ( lie Leeds American ] iacket ship at Pors 00: 1th ( where the vessel was detained, wind- bound,) and conveyed to town. Since his arrival in London, he has maintained a profound silence, and seems not at all discomposed. On Wednesday morning, Mr. Gates, the solicitor to the London bankers, waited upon the Lord Mayor, at the Mansio i- honse, to makrt, arrangements for the prisoner's examination, when his Lordship decided to hi ' ar the case in his private room. The proceedings, therefore, as far as they are gone, have been kept strictly secret. KENTISH BRUSSWICK CLUB— The number of names already put down as members of this club, exceed, it is said, six hundred, the greater part of whom are of the yeomanry and middle class of farmers. Viscount Neville, the eldest son of the Earl of Abergavenny, has been added to the list of vice- presidents, and the Hon. and Rev. Miles Stapleton, sou of Lord Le Despencer, has been also added to the same list. In the list of presidents there are five re- sident peers of the county ; on the vice- presidents' list there are one nobleman, four Honourables, nine Baronets, and two Knights, all residents in the county of Kent; and in the Committee of Management there are forty- one of the most influential gentry of the couutyr— Kentish Chronicle. The Gazette of Friday contains a copy of the King's Letter in aid of the Society for the* enlarge- ment and repair of Churches and Chapels, addressed to the Archbishops of Canterbury ami York, directing that publication thereof be made in every parish church; that the Minister* in each parish " do effectually excite their parishioners ! o a liberal con- tribution, which shall be collected in the several churches and chapels immediately after divine service, and in tbe coursc of the week following, at the dwellings of the several inhabitants by the Church- wardens ami Overseers of the Poor; ami that the Ministers do cause the sums so collected to be paid immediately to the Treasurer of the said Society."— In compliance with his Majesty's letter, sermons are about to be preached in the different churches and chapels of this and other dioceses. On Monday, Jonathan Elliot Gbugh, Esq. was sworn into office as Mayor of Hereford for the year ensuing. The splendid entertainment given by fire Mayor on this occasion, at the Hotel, was graced by the presence of nearly 200 of his friends, comprising the Nobility and Gentry of the county and- city ; and u interrupted harmony and conviviality prevailed till a late hour. On Friday, the 3d insfan', died, at Over Cmipfon- house, near Yeovil, Robert Godden, Esq aged 77. The deceased was a very wealthy land ivroer, and possessed, among other considerable property, nearly the whole village in which lift resided. His habits were extremely eccentric, one of the exhibitions of which wast dismayed In the erection, a few years ago, at a very great expense, of a large- marble monument, in his parish church, in which he is represented as the chief subject of it, attired rn his accustomed homely dress, ami with every peculiarity of incident which the infirmity of gout had conferred on his appearance. Insisting on being thus elaborated from the sculptor's chisel, the task was declined by a celebrated artist j but another respectable hand undertook the perform- ance On the monument is an inscription, penned 4iy the deceased, and a blank was left in it to be inserted with the date of his death when it should happen. The whole erection was kept closely boarded up, and a particular injunction in his will restrains hisexecutors from revealing the monument to the public eye until a year after his decease.

CAUTiok TO NL'RSP.*.— A beautiful and interesting child, the ' infantdaughter of a gentleman at the west end of London, became one day extremely disobedient. The usual schemes of the muse to pacify the child were unavailing, and, in an unhappy moment, she rushed to a dark cellar, with her charge in her arms. The sudden transition from light to darkness, coupled with some terrifying expressions, was too much ; the Jittle iunocciti shrieked Wildly, and sunk on the shoulder of the nurse in lu Ipless idibtcy, deaf and dumb ! Mr. Curtis, the King's aurist, was applied to, and, after a considerable period had elapsed, symptoms © f returning reason appeared. She has now also re- covered her pow ers of speech and hearing.

LITTMAN AxTiyun II s — A teaselated pavement has bet n recently discovered in a field of about eight • cr< » , on tlie north- west side of A hill, and under a ftood, Opposite King's Sedgemoor, in the parish of Titi * y, mar Langport. It has been opened under the d. reetion and superintendence of Mr. HnssHI, of LitCeton, near Somerton, a gentleman who has tie- voted much time iu antiquarian researches, and whose attention to the place abovementioned wn* first solicited by a fanner named Chambers, of Pitney,- who seen ed quite satisfied,. from repeated observations he had made, that in this held, and at this spot in particular, tinre must be some hidden buildings or subterraneous passages. The floor is 18 feet by 20; it is in the highest state of preservation, and is allowed by persons best acquainted with the subject to be the finest specimen that has been discovered in the West of England. The centre is an ecfagon, in which is a perfect figure of Bacchus w ith the usual emblems, and the other part of the floor is divided into' eight compartment containing figures of Mil eVva, Mars, Neptune, and other heathen deities, and at each corner is a bust; a beautiful border surrounds the whole, and runs round each division. The d( signs are admirably executed in tessera* of Various colours and very small dimensions, scarcely " half an inch square; there is a coarser edging of irsserie, each about one inch square, between the border and the walls, which are in good preservation, and about two feet high, and the top. only a few iiichcs under the surface of the field. Considerable numbers of persons of all ranks were attracted to view this interesting discovery during the short time it was open'; hut it has been for the present tilled up, till effectual means are taken to secure it, for which a subscription is being raised. Sir R. C. lloare has contributed handsomely, and has expressed his in- tention of visiting the spot early in the spring, before which time it is highly probable many other disco- veries will be made. — Bath Chronicle.

Ministers have been productive of much embarrassment and dis- tress. A mania for legislation— an inordinate love of change— a ton ness for rash and reckless innova- ion— have prevailed to such a degree, that con- vulsion, panic, ttrin, and misery have been the consequences. Public credit has been shaken to base; distrust, uncertainty, and suspicion^ have pervadid the nation y one interest has been ar- rayed against another; the protective fences of trade h ave been demolished; our artisans and labourers have been exposed to unequal and injuiif ous foreign competition; and ( he- confidence that was wont to be reposed1 in the laws mid in the Government has been shaken and nearly ' e- ctroyed. These changes slill press heavily on all efasaes. Our tnereai- tile marine, especially that employed in f - reign commerce, is on the decline; while that of the rest of Europe and the United States of America is increasing. The value of it has diminished mote than fifty per cent, while the ships of foreign nations crowd our harbours. The silk trade struggling with insuperable difficulties, and is threatened with more. The currency of the coun- try is in a state of lamentable derangement: and tbGSC who controul it, and who hold in their hands the available capital of the nation, are restrained in their employment of that capital by acts of the Legislature, founded on principles aeknowlfidged to be erroneous. ' I he wool- growers are suffering severe distress from the encouragement given to • foreign wools; and while even the hope of relief is denied them, they foresee only frwh embarrass- ment* in the exclusion of British coarse woollens from the markets of the United States. The glove trade is almost completely annihilated The Dublin mixed silk trade is entirely destroyed. The miners- and iron- smelters are at present pursuing an unpro- fitable speculation. Folly and fanaticism have re- duced to despair the planters and proprietors of the West Indies; and yet, while they are smarting under unmerited injuries, crushed to the earth by exorbitant imposts, and loaded with calumnies and ii. suits, a farther and a more fatal blow has been struck at their interests by the law permitting the introduction into this country of foreign colonial product1, and the encouragement thereby given to the slave trade. In our political affairs abroad— by the* inconsi- derate measures of one Administration, and the inibeeiie measures of another— we are also involved in many perplexities. There is a combination of foreign interests secretly arrayed against British policy and British influence. We are on the threshold of a terrible and sanguinary war. The efforts now m king by Russia to overrun and dismember Turkey, and thereby obtain a command- ing station in the Mediteri a; can-*- her fl- agTant violation of engagements— are not only a reproach to England, but, if these efforts be successful, will materially affect our commercial interests. By making ourselves a party to the treaty of the 6th July we have evidently promoted the ambitious views of the Russian Government. We have not benefitted Greece— Russia is not conciliated— the trade of Turkey is list. The United States of Amer'u a have concluded a treaty with the Porte, by which they gain many advantages, and are enabled to carry on a lucrative trade to our injury, By a secret treaty conditionally concluded with Spain France, iu the event of a war w ith Kugland, is to receive the Balearic Isles as the price of her invasion of the Spanish territory and her evacuation of Cadiz; while we have only been awarded the execrations of the Portuguese for our interference in the domestic affairs of that kingdom. We do, indeed, hold in leash all the discontented spirits of the age, but it is only to let them loose to prey upon ourselves. We have been overreached by Prussia in our famous treaties of reciprocity, she retaining, contrary to the spirit of the treaty, the exclusive monopoly of her valuable salt trade; while, m addition to this, the transit dutiesof the Rhine have been increased against our goods and colonial produce. Our trade with Spain is almost entirely a contraband one; the French eujoy the monopoly Russia has for several years been increasing the duties on our manufacture, and yet we make no retaliation. By the American commissioners we have been held at parley in Canada for twelve years, keeping open for the first moment of embar- rassment an eligible ground of quarrel; and the Congress of Washington lias given us another proof of its patriotism by excluding our manufactures by a tariff which its members, at their convivial meet ittgs, style the third declaration of independence. While we thus struggle with difficulties at home, and are daily becoming more involved abroad, the public peace of Ireland is in a state of fearful insecurity. A noisy, insolent, turbulent faction have been cherished and protected in that portion of the empire, till their conduct has become unbear- able, and till they have inflamed the wildest p; sions of the peasantry, and excited them to a state verging on rebellion. That part of'the- population which are most attached to the institutions ofEngland have been diseountenliieed; their motives ma ligned, their loyalty questioned, and their very toasts suspected ; while the Catholic priesthood, the Catholic incendiaries, the OH'onells, the Sheils, the Law! esses, have been permitted to insult the whole Protestant population iu tlfeir harangues, beard the Goveinnaent at their assemblies, display every insulting badge, and appear in every insult- ing costume, with impunity. Our liberality towards Ireland has been marked with ••• injustice; our avowed impartiality is an outrage upon law and good faith ; and now we are receiving the bitter, and the humiliating reward. By these principles, and by this feeble system, the loyal subjects of the King have been soured and alienated, and the disaffected roused to fury. By these errors by this wide and deplorable de- parture from sound cOnstit- ntional and commercial policy— the peace of the country is disturbed, its trade greatly injured, its revenue falling to decay— many niUlious of property have been sacrificed—• niany thousands of once opulent families have been reduced to comparative destitution— and many tens of thousands of industrious labourers converted into poachers and paupers. Ireland is on the eve, if not actually in a state, of rebellion. The ' Catholic rebels who are now in anus against England, and who thirst for the blood of their Protestant countrymen, have b" en insti- gated to these acts by men who now deem them, selves secure The Irish Government has for several years witnessed the machinations of these men with blind and fatal indifference; the officers of the Crown. have been asleep ; aud now that the impending danger calls for decided measures, the poor peasantry are to be made the victims, while the ar « h traitors are to escape. The Protestant institutions of our country have been so furiously assailed that they already totter; and now that those who revere them attempt to rally in their defence, their labours, their resolutions, their bob and loyal spirit, are discountenanced by the Go- vernment. But the Minister must yield to the majesty of public opinion. The spirit that now animates every Protestant bosom will, in spite of conciliation, crush Popery, and sweep away from the foot of the throne whatever Ministry may support it. The struggle may be protracted— it may be disastrous to both parties— it may even be sanguinary— but the result cannot be doubtful. At a borough court, held at the Guildhall, in the town'of Carnarvon, on Tuesday, the 23d of Septem- ber, before J. Bettiss and O. O. Roberts, Esqrs. Bailiffs. J. Goddard, Esq. Collector of Customs for that port, presented himself to the notice of the court, tym said, that he had been informed that his Royal High- ness the Duke of Sussex was at the seat of O. Wil- liams, Esq. and wished to know how the corporation would receive his Royal Highness, should he pay a visit to the town of Carnarvon. Bailiff Roberts.— We have had no notification of his Royal Highnesses intention of visiting Carnarvon, therefore I do not feel it necessary to take any notice of the subject. Mr. Goddard. — I only heard it hinted that be might come, and wished to giv€ the corporation notice, that they might have time to consider how to receive his Royal Highness. Bailiff Roberts.— I will yield to no man in loyalty to my Sovereign, and would be the first person to pay every respect to. all the members of the Royal Family, where it cotild be done with consistency ; but when 1 see a member of that illustrious family for- getting" what is due to his rank and station, by allow- ing himself to be made it kind of itinerant political puppet for, party purposes, 1 should be inclined to receive him in no other way than any other casual stranger that might come t6 to^ n. Captain Boiteafi.—} feaily think " fre ought to re- ceive his Royal Highness with an address, reminding him of the principles which placed the house of Brunswick on the throne (' This was received with the greatest applause and loud laughter.} Bailiff Bettiss.— As a membef of the Royal Family, I think him entitled to a salute, and to have the flags of the borough hoisted, should he come to town, and nothing more. Mr Goddard.— Then if he comes to town, the guns are to be tired and the flags hoisted. Bailiff Roberts.— Really, was I to consult my own feelings, considering the political principles of the burgesses of Carnarvon, and the party with whom his Royal Highness has been associating during his sojournment in the Principality, I should object to any thing being done ; but if my brother bailiff is of opinion that his Royal Highness, as brother to the King, be entitled to a salute as a matter of etiquette, I shall riot persevere in my objections, although I feel their force. Thus the business ended, and his Royal Highness never appeared here. SAVINGS BANKS.— The Act of Parliament of the last Session, for regulating Savings Ranks, provides, among other things, that the interest to be paid to depositors after the 20th of November next, is not to exceed 2| d. per day for every £ 100, or £ 3. 8s. 5d. per year— Savings of minors may be invested.— Payments to married women of deposits made by them are valid.

BOROUGH OF CARNARVON, filichaehnas Day being the time fixed by charter for the election of bailiffs for the borough of Carnar- von, a great sensation was excited in consequence of the burgesses ha • ing last year exercised their H'jghfs in electing bailiffs, according to their judgment of their fitness for office, and not leaving it to the nomination of a Mr. Sauoderson, an agent to the Marquis of Anglesey; and that sensation was not a little heightened by an intimation that Lord William Paget would be present. The number of burgesses that attended the. Guildhall was unprecedented, and after a sharp contest and polling, Mr. W, H. Roberts and Mr. Evan Evans were declared duly lectcd to fill the office of bailifis. Great was the disappointment expressed at Lord William Pagct's non- appearance; but this, however, was amply compensated by the circumstances that took place on T. A. Smith, Esq. being admitted a burgess of Car- narvon- He was proposed by the Rev. W. Williams in nearly the following words:-— Mr. Deputy Mayor and Bailiffs— I beg leave to propose, as a burgess of this ancient, loyal, and inde- pendent borough, ah individual of high distinction. As he is now present, ami as my acquaintance with him, Unfortunately forme, is but of recent date/ it would be a gross insult to his* understanding a.<? well as degrading in me, were I to attempt a panegyric on his character. When I remember the high rank and station he sustains in this county, and the extensive property he possesses, particularly in the town and neighbourhood— when l' recollect the blood that flows in his veins, inherited as it is from his muCh- estCemed and much- lamented father, our late Lord Lieutenant — above all, when I- am assured by those who haVe the honour of being much better acquainted with him than I am, of the goodness and kindness of his heart, I am led to conclude that he w ill dby as his father did before him, every thing in his power to promote the prosperity and welfare of the town of Carnarvon. With respect to politics, 1: would wish on the present occasion to be entirely silent, onlv observing, as- an individual, that T feel highly honoured' iW being permitted to propose as a burgess of this borough one whose politics have been long known and admired by us all— one who is a firm and staunch supporter of the institutions of our country in church and state, as by law established-, f /. ovd cheers. J I'hat he may long live, that he may long continue a sincerk and consistent defender of our glorious constitution, # thy fervent prayer. ( Cheers.} The Rev. Gentleman concluded by proposing T. A. Smith, Esq. ofVaenol. ( The cheers with which this annunciation was re- ceived were most enthusiastic and long continued.) Edward Curry, Esq. then rose aiiXl itatedV that, perfectly concurring in every expression which Mr. Williams had used, he felt pleasure in secofldiftg the nomination. Mr. Smith then came forward, amidst enthusiastic applause, and having been sworn in as a burgees, addressed the court and burgesses in substance as follows : — Mr. Mayor, Bailiff's, and Brother Burgesses— The warm manner in which I have this day been received by yon almost deprives mc of words to express my feelings on the present occasion, but rest assured I feel proud in having been admitted a member of this ancient and - loyal borough. I shall on all occasions feel highly pleased in doing all in my power towards promoting the prosperity of the town and neighbour- hood. My political principles are in unison with your own. ( Loud cheers.) I shall upon- all occa- sions, in that House where I have the honour of a seat, raise my voice in support of our glorious institu- tions in church and state as established at the revo- lution ; and will not, either in public or in private company, support with my voice any man who is hostile to our glorious " constitution, or, in other words, favourable to what is called Catholic Eman- cipation. ( Loud cheers.) 1 shall feel pleasure in acting in accordance with the loyal and independent burgesses of Carnarvon, who have so manfully declared their political sentiments. ( This declara tion was received with, the most deafening cheers, and1" ove cheer more") When Mr. Smith was sworn in, the town gunswere fired in compliment to the addition of the mosiinflu- ential gentleman in the county to the independent burgesses of Carnarvon The Hon" Spencer B Wynne, brother to the member for the county, was also sworn in a burgess. After the business of the hall bad terminated with out Lord William Paget's appearance, where his constituents were fully prepared to call him to account for his political tergiversation, it was whis pered that his Lordship intended to be present at the dinner, and was to take the chair, to represent his noble father as Mayor ; and when it was ascertained that. * uch was really the fact, several most respect- able persons declined going; others went from mo- tives of curiosity a ^ to what would take place ; whilst the majority determined on going, lest his Lordship or his agents should have it in their power to insinuate that the burgesses had deserted those principles which they had so nobly pledged themselves to. At four o'clock Lord William Paget took the chair in solemn silence. On his left sat Captain Parry, R.- N. and James Goddard, Esq. the collector of the customs. The former had, previous to the dinner, intimated to his Lordship that he should dine as his personal friend, but diametrically opposed to him in politics. On his right was Mr. Wynne, and a Mr. SaundersQp. The cloth being removed, ' " The King, and God bless him,'—- was drank with three tilne three. Mr, Powell, the Comptroller ( the venerable looking gentleman of the Catholic Association) of the Custom House, with an O'Connell Tierchief, proposed the health of the Marquis of Anglesey, and was called to order. Mr. Wynne returned thanks, and proposed the health of " Lord William Paget, the Member for the Borough." Mr. O. O. Roberts immediately rose and addressed his Lordship. He stated that he was perfectly aware of the delicate situation in which his Lordship in taking the chair had placed him ( Mr. Roberts) and the rest of his brother burgesses; but still, however Unpleasant it might be, he must, on behalf of himself and his brother burgesses, protest against anything- being done which could by possibility be construed into an abandonment of those principles which his lordship had felt himself at liberty to desert.— CLoud cheers.) Lord William Paget.— I am perfectly prepared to enter into a full explanation of all my conduct, with- out slurring over one single act since my election.— ( His Lordship then took out a large bundle of papers.) Mr. O. O. Roberts.— My Lord, this is not a fit place to discuss the question of your Lordship's conduct. The Guildhall is the place, and the only place,- where it can with propriety be done. Your Lordship must see the extreme indecency of any discussion of the kind at a dinner where your Lord- ship presides—( hear, hear.) There was a larger assemblage of burgesses this morning at the Guildhall than has been there for thirty years, expecting that your Lcrdship would have done what they had a right to expect— give them an opportunity of ex- pressing their sentiments, which they were fully prepared to do. ( Loud, cheers.) His Lordship then rose, and proceeded to read the letter sent to him by the burgesses, commenting upon different parts, and begging to be heard, or that, any other person should be called to the chair whilst he was explaining. Mr. Roberts again stated that this was not the place; that a great number of gentlemen were not present who intended taking a part in the proceedings whenever they took place, and that* as the explana- tion had been so long delayed, it had now better lie put off until the next general election. ( Cheers and laughter.) Lord Williafh stjli persevered, but the substance of what he said could not be collected, further than he complained of the injustice put upon him by Mr. Roberts, and the persons composing the meeting held in May last, and that he had never authorised either his uncle or brother to make any pledge— not that he denied having given a pledge— but if he had given a pledge, that he had not violated it/ Mr. Wynne intimated, that the best plan would be to call a meeting specially to hear his Lordship.— ( Hear.) Lord William.— I am ready to attend ahy meetings and prepared to give the fullest explanation. Mr. Wynne.— A meeting had better be called forthwith. A Burgess.— The regular way is by requisition to the bailiffs. Here the business appeared to have rested ; his Lordship's health still remainining undrank, when a Mr. Saunderson took the papers from Lord Wil- liam's hand, and began by stating that he had thirty- five propositions which he should like to have con- sidered. That Lord William had not violated his pledge, as he never consen ted to Catholic Emanci- > ation He then commented upon the meeting in May last, and stated that there was a respectable deputation from Pwllheli, who were not allowed to be heard. Mr. O. O. Roberts.— This is not correct; but per- haps the speaker might be excused his error, when it, was recollected that he was seldom seen in Carnarvon excepting about Michaelmas, or when something was wanted from the burgesses. ( Hear, and laughter.) Mr. Saunderson Continued, and observed, as to the fewness of the burgesses, that the meeting had been concocted by Captain Boileau, Mr. Bettiss, and Mr. Roberts. In fact, said Mr. Saundersou, they were packed by Mr. O. O. Roberts. ( The room in com- plete uproar ; " No, no," from all quarters. Mr. Potter and several other gentleman individually repelled, the insinuation with indignation.) Mr. O. O, Roberts.— A more barefaced insult to the burgesses of Carnarvon 1 never witnessed. ( Hear, hear.) I repeat it, that a more barefaced insult could not be offered to you. I challenge his lordship or his friends to produce the same number of his < 5onstifuen& # ith those who signed the requisition in May last, either as to wealth, respectability, or generaf information. ( Cheers.) No— his lordship will find whenever an opportunity offers, that the burgesses of Carnarvon are not to be trampled upon even by the Marquis Of Anglesey, although they have been designated by sOme of the demagogues at that mild and respectable meeting the Catholic Association, " the contemptible reptiles of Carnarvon." ( Cheers.) Perhaps Mr. Saunderson Would so far oblige the honest burgesses of Carnarvon, as to convey their unfeigned thanks to the Catholic Association for the high compliment paid them by seeing, a vote of Censure passed on them by that delectable body.- Mr. Wynne.— It is a principle of English law, that every man is deemed innocent Until proved guilty. Let this business for the present drop. 1 will propose to drink Lord William Paget simply as a burgess. ( Drank in silence.) Mr. Wynne then suggested an early day for a meeting, to give Lord William an opportunity of explaining. Mr. Roberts, in proposing ( with permission of the Chair) the health of Mr. Asslieton Smith, stated that it. was highly flattering and consoling to the burgesses of Carnarvon to have had a gentleman of his pro- perty, influence, and principles enrolled ainong them; and after the frank and manly declaration they had heard from him that morning, he was certain his health wonld be hailed with enthusiasm, and drank with the greatest applause and cheers. ( The toast was then proposed, 7 and drank with the greatest enthusiasm.) ' Prosperity to the town and trade of Carnarvon." ' The Deputy Mayor." " The Earl of Uxbridge— the member fot1 Anglesey." Lord William Paget returned thanks, 14 The late Baililfr." The chairman in giving this toast said, it is clearly proved we entertain no hostile feeling towards them, Mr. Roberts returned thanks. ' Mr. Wynne" — three times three. ' « The new Bailitfs." Mr. John Jones proposed the health of REPORT OF THE POLICE COMMITTEE. To the Right JVnrshijtful the Mayor, Aldermen, and Assistarts of the Town of Shrewsbury, in Common Council aixembled. The Committee, to whom it wits referred to enquire into the State and Eftieiency of the Police of the Town and liberties of Shrewsbury, have the honour to report as follows. Your Committee consider that the objects of their enquiry naturally divided them- selves into three heads •— The actual State of the District as to Crime, its Facilities, and its Detections : The State of the present Police, its Emoluments, its Duties, and the Manner in which those Duties are performed : ' The Means by which the present System, if defective, may be amended Although the Records of the Court of Quarter Session do not exhibit a number of Criminals dispro- portioned to the population of the Liberties, your Committee have reason to believe, from the enquiries they have made, that many petty Felonies are com- mitted, the perpetrators of which are not brought to justice; and, particularly, that several Burglaries have been committed within the last year, which have not been traced. Your Committee are ihclined to attribute the former class of these oft'ences in a great measure to the various shops situate principally in the suburbs, where stolen goods are habitually disposed of, whose owners, not being under the eye of a vigilant Police, seem to purchase without enquiry whatever is offered them for sale, and are, as your Committee believe, knowing and guilty receivers. Your Committee regret that they cannot close their remarks on the channels through which stolen goods are disposed of here ; but their personal experience either as Magistrates or Grand Jurors, or as otherwise connected with the administration of justice within the town, compels them to report, that they have had reason to observe the exceeding and hlameable care- lessness with which tradesmen, usually deemed re- spectable, and whom they Would not class absolutely with knowing receivers, do purchase goods, at very inadequate prices, from parties whom a very little enquiry must lead them to suspect to be guilty pro- enquiry with greater effect, and to whom tlie Town Would look up with greater confidence in the pro- priety of their decision. The result of this investi- gation has been to exculpate the two Haywards from the charges brought against them, the younger Hay- ward having produced receipts for the specific sums w hich were said to have been unduly withheld by him, or his late Father. Your Committee felt it to be their duty to notice the existence of this charge, as it was for the House to judge whether it was com- pletely answered. They have great satisfaction now in expressing their opinion that this imputation thrown upon the Police of the Town has been most decisively refuted. Still, however, they are of opinion, that the Under Otficers, however valuable in their stations, are not of that class who ought to be at the head of the Police, but that a person of different rank and qualifications should be sought for, under whose controul tliey might be placed, as is hereafter suggested. Of the Senior Officers they have only to say, that as Police they are totally inefficient; but it would be hard to impute blame to theiii for the non- per- formance of services which, not having been imposed upon them, cannot fairly be called duties. The Watch exists only within the Circuit bounded by the River and the Castle Gates, and is of various strength at different seasons of the year, varying from four to ten, with their Superintendent. There is also a Patrole, who watch from dark till ten o'clock. These, as the House nitist be aware, are under the Controul of a Committee, appointed under the recent Street Act. Another Committee; tinder the same Act, regulates the Lighting of the Tow n. Your Committee believe, that as far as relates to the Public Peace, this inner district may fairly be deemed orderly ; but again adverting to the fact, that several undetected Burglaries have recently been committed within its limits, some of which must have occupied much time to effect, they may leave the question of the suffi- ciency of this Watch to be answer* < 1 by every man who has a house and property to protect: but even were the Watch within ttie Town sufficient, the Suburbs ( unlighted and unwatched) afford a sure refuge for the plunderer. The Watchman's duties are bounded by the Bridges and Gates, and so also is curers of them. This practice has frequently liiet , . - with reprobation from the Bench, hitherto, however, ?' s ai>"> onty derived by a special Act of Parliament, without that effect due to admonitions so much jUPon < h,° . wholc> J" jnr Committee feel bound to called for. | rePort tl, eir opinion, that the present Police and Your Committee have further to report, that, j aw in^ fficiept for the waftts of » o> ltrge a independent of the bad characters among our own population, the great resort of foreign thieves appears to be at the various lodging- houses situate principally in the suburbs : here Vagrants and sturdy Beggars harbour frequently for a considerable time without any visible means of subsistence, living, as may be fairly presumed, in many cases on plunder— at best a nuisance to the town as beggars, and frequently a heavy burthen as casual poor. The suburbs, too, from causes which will be adverted to in the next head of this Kt- pott, are too frequently the scenes of riot and outrage, unchecked by any efficient authority. One of them, particularlyis both a nuisance and disgrace to the town, from the numerous houses inhabited by profligate women with which it abounds. Your Committee are further informed, that the low public- houses in the suburbs are ill regulated and open at unlawful hours, and are the constant resort of idlers and tipplers on Sundays •. a great part of the misery and consequent profligacy of the loner orders may be traced to this practice. Among the facilities to crime, your Committee trust they are not exceeding the limits prescribed to them, in adverting to a practice which might be easily checked, since the recent Street Act has pro- vided against it— they mean that of exposing goods of various sorts at the doors of tradesmen and on the pavement. Doubtless, the Act views this simply as a nuisance and obstruction to the passenger, but your Committee cannot help considering it as a great and unjustifiable temptation to crime, and as affording a first and easy lesson in thieving to the young and idle wanderers in our streets. It might be invidious in an individual to enforce the law in this respect; but as the Town actually pays an Inspector of " Nuisances, perhaps it is not too much to expect that this among others should be looked to with vigilance, and abated impartially and universally. Having taken this cursory view of the State of Crime within the Town and Suburbs, your Committee have to state the result of their enquiries as to the present Police. These, of course, have been limited to the subordinate officers. It would be equal pre- sumption in them either to censure or praise the con- duct or exertions of the Magistracy in preserving the peace or administering justice on offenders. One remark only they feel it incumbent upon them to make— that the Mayor and Justices of the Town of Shrewsbury, principally Elective Officers, who preside in ail the Courts, and whose judicial functions are most iniportant, are by no means placed in the same situation, nor can they have the same experience, as the permanent Police Magistrates in the Metropolis. The whole subordinate Police of the Town consists, thefi, in the several officers appointed by the Body Corporate, consisting of three Serjeants at Mace and three fnder Officers, at the following Salaries £. ... d.

Mr. W. Roberts, one of the Marquis ef Anglesey's sir tenants in the boroughs, proposed " The PROTESTANT ASCENDANCY." And called upon Lord William Paget to drink it. All the burgesses present drank the toast with every honour. Several of the burgesses cried out, " We will not have you for a member any more"—" We want no Catholics." Another burgess said, " I hope, my lord, that we shall have an early meeting, and that you w ill owe it to yourself to be present, and either defend or explain your conduct." Upon this his lordship, who perceived how the wind lay, started up with great vehemence, and replied, " That from the manner he had been received and treated by his constituents, Iheir wish was to send him back to Ireland degraded, and lo be scoffed at. As to a public meeting, he w ould attend none, nor would he. pay attention to any requisition. ( Violent vproar. J He was their mem- ber, and was determined so to continue until a disso- lution of parliament deprived him of that trust, w hen he would fhrow it back in the faces of the burgesses of Carnarvon, with indignation and disdain." ( Im- mense uproar: " throw it vp now." J His lordship continued in a similar strain of elocution for some time, exhibiting the most frantic gestures, and using the most violent language, accompanied by the most uncouth gesticulation. " The Duke of Clarence and the Uoyal Family"— three limes three. Mr. Powell proposed the health of Lord William Paget, and was instantly called to order. " The Constable of the Castle", - by Captain Parry— three times three. Lord W. Paget had, he said, the commands of his father to return thanks, and to assure them of his kind feelings towards the borough of Carnarvon. " Lord Ne w bo rough, the Membor for the County." At the election of civic officers at Pwllheli, on Michaelmas Day, at a most numerous meeting of the burgesses of that borough, the member for the borough was received with the most marked disapprobation and hisses, and his health refused to be drank. He was then proposed as merely a burgess, and drank with great coldness; four persons who wished to have honours done to him as a burgess, were soon con- vinced that the sentiments of that borough were in unison with those of the loyal men of Carnarvon. The term sheep- stealers is. now reckoned extremely vulgar: these gentlemen traffickers designate them- selves speculators in viqvl! 41 o o These, it is to be observed, are principally officers of ceremony, whose duty it is to attend at all meet- ings of the Corporation, to serve all summonses and all processes issuing from the Court of Record, to be formal parties in all Common Recoveries suffered therein, to attend on the Court Days of the Mayor at the Town Hail, and to execute all Warrants that shall be delivered to them within the Liberties. On these accounts only their salaries are paid ; and in strictness no service as Police Officers, in watching the known haunts of thieves, or taking any preventive measures for the security of the property or persons of the inhabitants, can be required of them, though to a certain extent it has in practice devolved upon the three Under Officers. These, in addition to their salaries, are allowed five shillings a day for their attendance at the Town Hall with parties in custody, ten shillings for attendance as Witnesses in Court on each Prosecution, and sixpence each mile they travel in the execution of their duties. There are certain other services performed by them attended with some emolument, the amount of which is uncertain, but trifling. Farlow, the worst paid of the three, states his annual profits from all these sources, his salary included, at from £ 30 to £ 32 a- year. The three Serjeants at Mace appear to take no part whatever in the Criminal Police of Ihe Town. This, then, is the whole effective Police of a Town, comprehending within its limits 18,000 inhabitants, with the exception of the Constables of the outlying Townships and the Watch, to which your Committee will presently advert. In reporting upon the conduct of the existing Officers of Police, your Committee think it right to distinguish. The place of Hayward, the late Mar- shal, is now vacant, his son performing its duties ad interim, without any regular appointment, Your late Marshal was, as doubtless most of the members of the House could testify, a very active and intelli- gent officer. Of Farlow, your Committee believe, they niav speak with unqualified praise as an active and useful man, upon whose conduct there lias been no imputation. It will be for the House to consider whether it would be expedient, if the opportunity occurs, to promote him : at present be receives the smallest salary of any.— Ganderton's exertions and activity have not been quite so obvious to your Committee; but they believe there is no charge against him for any incorrectness of conduct.— The younger Hayward, since he has acted in his Father's place, has, in several instances, shewn considerable resolution and adroitness in performing- its duties and apprehending Criminals. Your Committee, however, were informed, that complaints of a very serious nature have been made against the two Haywards, no less than the undue appropriation of the money of criminals taken in custody by them. Your Committee would have thought it their duty to examine into fliis charge as minutely as was in their power; but learn- ing since that the subject was under the investigation of the Magistracy, they gladly resigned it to those whose authority would enable them to conduct the applicable to the present state of things. First, then, they think it essentially necessary that provision should he made for the Watching and Lighting of all the Suburbs : till this is done all other improvements must be nugatory. They are aware that this cannot be done without an applicatiou to Parliament', but they conceive that this is one of those cases in wnich Parliament, if applied to, would interfere : and they believe that it would be no answer to a petition for a Bill for the establishment of an Effective Watch and Police in an ill- regulated district that its inhabitants were well content without either. As, however, several of the respectable inhabitants of the Suburbs have been loud in their complaints o'f the nuisances of their respective neighbourhoods, ( nuisances doubtless increased in the Suburbs from the measures taken to drive them from the heart of the Town,) your Committee would hope that they would trow acquiesce in an arrangement which would extend to them the benefits and protec- tion of lighting and Watching, and make them con- tributory thereto, though they should still object to subject themselves to such other powers of ( he Com- missioners of the Street Act as may seem inapplicable to their situation. Your Committee would further suggest that the Watch should be continued upon a more extended scale in the heart of the Town, and that the Lamps should be kept burning longer. At present there are several hours of darkness in our streets, affording facilities to the evil- disposed, and throwing difficulties in the way of detection. Sup- posing these points gained, your Committee are of opinion that the whole of the Police should be placed under the direction of one experienced and respectable officer, at a competent salary, who should himself be under the command of the Mayor and Magistrates of the Town : it being a principle which your Committee trust will never be departed from, that it is wiser to strengthen the hands of existing authorities than to create new jurisdictions, Your Committee are further of opinion that the appointment of this Officer should be in the Mayor and Acting Magistrates only, and that he should be removable at their pleasure. They would suggest, in the first instance, the expediency of appointing a person unconnected with the Town. This Officer should give up the whole of his time to the duties of his situation : he should keep a constant eye upon the known resorts of suspicious characters, and upon the shops where stolen goods are usually disposed of; and he should give proper directions to his subalterns. Your Committee believe that the present Under Officers, or such of them as shall be deemed eligible, wonld willingly continue their services, under the controul of a Superior, at their present salaries and perquisites. There seems no reason why the Serjeants at Mace should not assist in the duties of the Police, particularly by being on the watch at the various fairs, markets, and places of public resort. Their services to the Corporation arc so trifling at present that more might fairly be required of them: and though your Committee would not recortnnend the disturbing the present ancient occupiers, or loading fhrm with duties to which they are obviously incompetent, yet they cannot but think that if active and competent men were sought for on any vacancy, and the duties they were expected to perform accurately defined and stated to them, that there would be abundant competition for the offices at the present salaries. Your Committee do not conceive that the burthen of maintaining an additional Officer of the Police, should the Town require one, can be justly thrown on the Corporation ; nor can they suggest any mode of paying the salary of the proposed Head Officer, but by embodying it in charges to be levied under any extension of the powers of the Street Act. A Subscription, indeed, has been pointed out to them, and, considering the generally expressed opinion that something is wanting to the security of the Town,- might for a time be effective. But your Committee feel bound on princi- ple to object to such a measure ; they conceive, that whatever concerns the administration of Public Jus- tice should rest on the firmest basis, exempt from fluctuation and caprice, and that whatever is for the safety of all should be paid for by all. It may be a question hereafter, when any vacancy shall occur, whether, by attaching one of the Ancient Corporate Offices to the situation of the Head of the Police, the charge on the Public might not be diminished, and the number of officers reduced to the old standard ; but as it is impossible consistently with the Charter and the formal duties required in the Court of Record to reduce the number of the present Officers and combine the emoluments, so it is not to be expected that a person of the requisite qualifications can be procured at the salary which any one ( the best paid"! of those Officers receives. All that can be done is to, make them all useful in subordinate stations, and tcj hold out the hope of ultimate promotion to the deserving. Your Committee are conscious that the view they have taken of the important subject submitted tot them may be justly deemed superficial, and that it will require the mature consideration of the House, guided by the experience of the Magistracy and those who have served the office of Magistrates, to weigh the expediency of their suggestions, or to point out other modes of amelioration.
