Most excellent Medicine for Bile, In- digestion, Pains, Giddiness of the Head, Piles, Dropsical Complaints, and are in a considerable degree a preventative of various other diseases. Their coin position is truly excellent, as they do not contain any Antimonial or Mercurial preparation whatever, and therefore when taken do not require the feast confine- ment or alteration of diet ( moderate exercise promotes their good effects), they seldom operate until ten or twelve hours after taken, and then very gently ; they destroy worms, purify the humours, and evacuate all foul corruptions to which the Intestines are so liable^ whereby so many diseases are produced ; never gripe unless the inside he very foul, and- then but little, by removing obstructions they cause the food to pass to its respective parts ; becoming a good restorative and pre- servative of health to both sexes, and to those of a costive habit a truly valuable treasure. Also SNOOK'S PECTORAL or COUGH PILLS, for Coughs, Colds,' Asthmas, and Shortness of Breath. It is well known that coughs and colds ( if not soon re- moved) are in many cases attended with considerable danger, for the removal of which the Pectoral or Cough Pills are with confidence recommended as an excellent medicine, and in most cases a certain specific: a single Box will be sufficient trial to prove their good effects.

Depraved Jppetile, NOTHING, perhaps, weakens the Mind so much as a pernicious Practice, which takes Possession of the whole Mind and Attention, and pre- vents its Votaries from following their respective Avocations, by engrossing their Ideas, even when they should be employed iu the most serious Business of Life; it renders them stupid, dull, and thoughtful, and destroys their Vivacity, Cheerfulness, and Health ; bringing on Consumptions, Weaknesses, and all that dreadful Train of Nervous Complaints, which makes them timid, whimsical, and ridiculous. It agitates the Mind, causes Frightful Ideas and Horrid Dreams, and ultimately renders theui fearful of being left alone for a few Minutes!

The object of the canal is to afford a passage for large vessels from Amsterdam to the sea. This city has 40 feet of water in the road in front of its port, but the Pampas or bar in the Znyder Zee, seven miles below, has only a depth of ten feet; and hence all ships of any considerable burden have to unload part of their cargoes with lighters before they enter the port As the sea in question is full of shallows throughout, all ordinary means of improving the access to the port were necessarily ineffectual; and the resolution was therefore at length adopted of cutting a canal from tiie town to the Hclder, the nortlmiost point of the province of Holland. The distance between these extreme points is 41 English miles, but the length of the canal is about 50'. The breadth at the surface of the Water is I24J English feet ( 130 Rhinland feet); the breadth at bottom 30; the depth 20 feet 0 inches. Like the Dutch canals generally, its level is that of the high tides of the sea, from which it receives its supply of water. The only locks it requires, of course, are two tide- locks at the extremities; but there are, besides, two sluices with flood gates in Ihe intermediate space. It has only 18 bridges ( draw- bridges) iu ite" w hole length. The locks and sluices arc double, that is to say, there are two in flic breadth of the Canal; and we learn from Mr. Bald, that their construction and workmanship are excellent They arc built of brick for economy, but bands of limestone are interposed at intervals, and these project about an inch bcyoml the brick, to protect it from abrasion by the sides of tire vessels. There is a broad towing path on . each side, and the canal is wide enough to admit of one frigate passing another. The line which the canal follows may be easily traced on a map of Holland. From the river Ye at Amsterdam, it proceeds north to Purmerend, thence west to Alkmaar Lake, thence north by Alkmaar to a point within two miles of the coast, near Pctten, and it continues to run nearly parallel to the coast from this point lo the Helder, where it joins the sea at the fine harbour of Niewediep, formed within the last 30 years. At the latter place there is a powerful steam- engine for supplying the canal with water during neap- tides, and other purposes. The time spent in tracking vessels from the Holder to Amsterdam is 18 hours. The Helder point is the only spot on the shores of Holland that has deep water ; and it owes ( his advantage to the island of Texel opposite, which, by contracting the communication between tire Ger- man Ocean and the Zuyder Zee to a breadth of a mile, produces a current which scours anil deepens flic channel. Immediately opposite the Helder there is 100 feet of water at high tides, and at the shallowest part, of the bar to the westward there arc 27 feet. In the same way, the artificial mound which runs into the lake or river Ye opposite Amsterdam, by con- tracting Ihe water way to about 1000 feet, keeps a depth of 40 feet in the port ( at high water), while above and below there is only 10 or 12- The canal was begun in 1819, and finished in 1825 The cost was estimated at 10,000,000 or 12,000,000 of florins, or about £ 1,000,000 sterling. If we com pare the magnitude of this canal by the cubic con- tents of its bed, it is the greatest iii the world, unless some of the Chinese canals be exceptions. The volume of water which it contains when filled, or the prism de remplissage, is twice as great as that id' the New York Canal, or the Canal of Ijfngnedoc, and two and a half times as great as that of the Caledo man Canal.

Hence and many trials, 1 know that it requires judgment and skill even iu those who are daily in the habit of cleaning pictures, to effect their pur- pose without injury, and that recommending one nostrum to remove the dirt uud old varnish from the face of all old paintings, is like prescribing one remedy for every complaint to which mankind is subject. 1 advise the possessor of those works of art that really stand in need of such refreshings, to employ a skilful jrractitioner for thai purpose, on whose skill and honesty he can depend; hmting- however, at the same time, that every pretender is not a physieian,. and that such things have been known as the possess! r of a valuable picture, who knew no better, receiving instead of his valuable original a modern copy, lined, grained, smoked, and toned, so as to look like. age, and sent home will: high . encomiums as to the pure state and fine effect with which it has come from under its concealment My advi e to young collectors is not to lay a linger on any picture with a view to clean or improve it There arc plenty of honest men ( though abundance of rogues) iu the profession of picture- cleaners but it is better that the collector s'lould endeavou to seek out One of the former, and pay hint well to his skill and adviee, than that he should destroy valuable work of art by his own ignorance. Votum might be written on the subject of the injuries done to valuable pictures by the ignorant aiul unskilful 1 shall relate some of the many instances that came under my observation, hoping thereby to deter others from such folly. " I once received from a relation of mine London, two pictures, the one of which was by Pamni, the other somewhat like Velvet Rreughel. In the latter was depicted the story of David and Bathsheba: the bath was iu a rich garden, ena melled with beautiful flowers; peacocks and othe birds of gay plumage enriched the scene. I thought the picture was not quite so clean as I could wish it, and having lately obtained as a great favour from a clergyman, a most inva. luable and never failing receipt for cleaning pictures, 1 anxionsly purchased the ingredients, compounded them witli great care, and spread them on my picture at night with an intention to wash the composition off iu the morning, according to my reverend friend's direc tions. Morning came, and I prepared my hot rain water and sponge, as 1 was ordered ; but so com pletely had the nostrum cleaned the picture, that I never saw either David or Bathsheba, the pea cocks or their plumage, for they all went away into the water, leaving me a clear bare panel as a reward for my folly. " A gentleman of the medical profession, on calling to see a patient at .4-^ Hall, iu Cheshire. saw a journeyman painter very busy cleaning the family pictures, some of which were by Vandylt and Lebj, with soft soap. 11 should think,' said un- friend, * you would rub out these pictures with such cleaning.' ' O yes, sir,' replied the painter, ' we often do rub them out, but we always put them iu again." WHITFIELD'S TABF. RNACLK. It is generally known that the celebrated conventicle in Totten ham Court Road, built for the memorable Itev. Mr Whitfield, is now somewhat unexpectedly closed The Committee of Management had been long iu negotiation with the ground landlord for a renewal of the lease or the purchase of the ground. The sum required is mentioned at £ 18,000; the sum offered is named at £ 12,000. At all events, what- ever were the sums, only two- thirds of the amount demanded were proffered— hence the uegoeiation was broken olf.— The occupiers of seats were curi- ously circumstanced in suddenly finding themselves without sittings; but what must be the situation of those who had paid for graves, monuments, tablets & c. for their deceased relatives or friends, in the expectation that they were not to he disturbed?

I feel it absolutely necessary to say a few words explanatory of the circumstances Which gave rise to the Bruns- wick Constitutional Clubs, in proposing the foisi which it, is now my duty to propose. ? n doifig tills, however, I hope it will not be necessary for me fo occupy much of your fir/ ie. In considering fbc circumstances which caused therfe clubs to be formed and organized, it will be recollected that for sonn- years pant the Catholic question has been agitated with a degree of energy and zkal which must neces- sarily have aroused the attention of every thinking man in England. I have sedulously watched the progress of that question in this country, and I rejoice to think that it 1ms hot been siri- h as to warrant any apprehension amongst the friends of the constitution respecting tile ultimate result. We live, 1 trust, iif times when flic free, and intelligent, and independent portion of British society Ifave come to the r'solutiorf of handing down to posterity those invaluable istitu tions for which we owe eternal gratitude to our ancestors. I ask the freeholders and gentry of th » independent county, Whether they see any reason for hanging that which the King and we have sworn' t i maintain? I feel, as 1 am sure you all must, that nothing can be a subject of deeper regret than that individuals of any party should be found placing themselves at the head of a popular body, which body would seek by force, and with arms in their hands, to effect that change in our constitution w hich our ancestors would have ever regarded as flic greatest evil that could befal this country. It was with a view to the prevention of such dangers as thus threatened us, that we felt the necessity of forming the Brunswick Constitutional Clubs, ami, by means, If them, to establish facility for the expression of public opinion, and create a power by which the loyal of all classes might rally round the throne, in defence of the King, the Constitution, and the Church. ' Hie Brunswick Constitutional Club in London, of which I have the honour to be secretary; originally set an example to tlte country at largo— an example which was most honourably followed iu Ireland, and which, now, I am grateful to state, is iu course of being followed throughout England. We in this country can with perfect security declare that v? e do not war against opinions - we do not contend againt religion we are as w illing as the most violent liberal coul. l desire to leave every man free to follow the dictates ~ of his own conscience, and worship his God in any manner he thinks proper. The principle for which we contend is not one that can be met by any propo- sition respecting civil and religious liberty. We are not, opposed to civil/ and religious liberty ; on the contrary, we are its truest friends. But, gentlemen, eligious liberty, ndividuals with political power who nev er had power without abusing it. Let us refer to any period during which tliev possessed political power, and it will be found that they exercised it, irot for the security of the throne, or the rights of tire people, but for the injury of both. " Mow, Gentlemen, it is to prevent the transfer of political power from those whom the wisdom of our ancestors made the depositories of it, and to prevent it passing to those whom past experience tells us would abuse it, that the Brunswick Clubs have been formed— it is to prevent civil war, and not to create it, that the Brunswick Clubs have been formed. It is alike for purpose* of security and preservation that we have formed ourselves into this social club, tem- perately and coolly to maintain those principles, from the preservation of which alone the country can hope to he happy or to prosper. I hope I can promise for myself that I w ill never shrink from the performance of my duty. I trust none of us will shrink from the discharge of the great obligations which our country imposes upon us; that we will adopt the motto of our Irish brethren, and cry, " No surrender." It is alone to the proceedings of the Catholics in Ireland that the formation of the Brunswick Clubs is to be attributed. We were not to sit still, and see how long the Parlia- ment, sitting, and deliberating, and deciding in Dub- lin, were to continue to defy the King and the legislature— to wait and see how long they might with impunity levy taxes, and usurp the other func- tions of government— I lunch mistake the character of true Englishmen, if they could have endured it much longer. For myself,' I have in prospect the choice of possessing many acres in Ireland; but freely, and without reservation, vcould I sacrifice them all rather than surrender one jot or tittle of those civil and religious rights for which no price could be excessive. Gentlemen, we have been organized tn> present, by the weight of public opinion, an effi- ctu. il resistance to the measures of our enemies, and the enemies of the consiitution in Ireland. They have threatened the King and the government, with force and violence ; they have dared to threaten our Pro- testant King, our gracious and beloved monarch, if he do not surrender to them the rights and liberties of his subjects. Now we are associated to maintain that monarch iu his noble and constitutional exercise of that prerogative, by which the institutions of our ancestors have hitherto been preserved and transmit- ted to us. Gentlemen, the Brunswick Clubs are spreading in every direction throughout the united kingdom ; but it may not be unimportant to remark, that they have no connexion with the Orange associ- ations of Ireland— with them we have nothing to do ; our sole object is to hand down to our children's children the rights for which our ancestors bled. Gentlemen, you will be, I am sure, infinitely gratified to find that not less than 1200 members have already enrolled themselves members of this ( the Bucking- hamshire) club f Cheers J ; they have enrolled them- selves to maintain the offended laws of the country, and to preserve inviolate that soil which our ancestors cultivated, and on which we now tread. I trust you will excuse the length at which I have trespassed upon your indulgence, ftoud cheers.) 1 felt it to be my duty, as president of this club, to give expres- sion, however inadequately, to the feelings which animate every member of this body. We are alt united in one common cause— the support of the monarch and the maintenance of the constitution. I repeat, let us adopt the motto of the Irish —" No surrender"— let us yield not, one atom to Catholic encroachment— let us obey the law as good subjects — but let us say, as the barons did of old, « Nolunuw leges Anglite niutari."

PRNENDEN HEATH, KENT.— This spot is partly in Boxley uarish, and partly in that of Maidstone. It has been a celebrated place for public meetings from the time of tiie Conquest down to the present. Here, in 10711, was the famous assemblage held by order of the Norman William, to determine the truth of the allegations brought by Archbishop Uuifranc against the rapacious Odo, Bishop of Baieux ; at which, afrer a solemn inquiry of three days continuance, the latter was adjudged to refund a great portion of his sp. iils. Limbard, in his Perambulations of Kent, page 17s" edition 1576, gives a curious account of this famous trial.—" On the north side of this Healh, iu a very humble shed, is held the County Court, monthly ; ami at elections for the county, here the Sheriff assembles the meeting, as he does for ( be election of Coroners. — See Beauties of England and.

Another Russian bulletin, dated Bucharest, Sept. 29", and published in the Austrian Observer, has arrived jn town. It relates entirely to the battle between the Russians and Turks on the 26th, in Little Wailachia. It appears that the latter made an attack, on their position at Czoroi, but were repulsed with considerable loss in men, cannon, and ammunition. The Turks, it is stated, were driven back to their entrenchments at Kalafat. The number of killed and woujvded on the side of the Ottomans was not known, the courier having departed with his dis- patches before satisfactory inquiry could be made. The Russian account, however, presumes that the number must have been very great, " considering the ardour with which the enemy was pursued." Letters from Adrianople describe the Turkish foife before Choninlu to amount to 100,000 men, 70,000 of whom ape encamped, and 30, r. OO among the mountains —( he 70,000 of course being blockaded by the Rus- sians. If such be the case, little hope remains of the Russian army being able to make impression upon it. The raising of the Standard of the Prophet, and the departure of the Sultan for the army, appear to have given fresh enthusiasm to t. l> e people, and consequently to have facilitated every measure for increasing the strength of the army. The reported termination of the war between the Emperor of E. azil and the republic of JBuenos Ay res is confirmed. The Barida Oriental, the bohe of contention, and which the Emperor has lost the bravest portion of his troops in fruitlessly endeavour- ing to retain, has been deckired independent. The troops of both claimants are to be withdrawn, and the independence of the country is for the space of five years to be guaranteed by Great Rritain.

Courier of this evening, will show how the country has been duped by the Liberal Party and their Popish Editorial colleagues : — " It was our intention to have presented our readers with- a few desultory details of proceedings on penn- euden Heath, which press of important mattes com- pels us to defer. We cannot, however, refrain from apologising to the public for having printed a . speech which was not spoken-— namely, that attributed to Mr. Sheil. It was inadvertently copied from a Morning Paper, to which Mr. SheiV consigned it in manuscript before it possibly could hare been & polien. The speech which he did § peak, but which we defy a mole to have heard connectedly, was aiete bother, blarney, and downright impudence.* [ From the Morning Chronicle of Tuesday, Ocl. .$ 8;]- Yesterday, His Majesty held a Privy Council, at which the Parliament was further prorogued from the 30th instant to ( it, was understood) Thursday, the 18th day of December next. Ctie Salopian ' journal. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3< » , 1828. A dialogue, from the pen of a Correspondent, iq which the whole scheme and tendency of what is termed " Catholic Emancipation" is t> n raicHcii, will he found in our 4th page, and will he perused w ith satisfaction. That 19- 20ths of the Protestants of the kingdom are opposed to the admission of Papists to political power, we firmly believe ; and we trust the example of the County of Kent, recorded in our 3d page, will he followed hy every county, city, and town, in Britain. In the year 1807, when his late Majesty, of " glorious, pious, and immortal memory," dismissed the advisers who then wished to debase the Constitution by introducing the alloy of Popery, the Counties of Salop, Montgomery, Merioneth, Flint, Anglesea, Brecon, Cardigan, Carnarvon, and Pem- broke, the High Sheriff and Grand Jury of Denbigh- shire, the Gentlemen and Freeholders of Denbighshire assembled for the County Election, the Towns of Shrewsbury and Bridgnorth, the Boroughs of Wen- lock, Montgomery, Denbigh, lluthin, Carnarvon, Cardigan, & c. & e. were among the first to rally round the Throne and the Altar, by addressing their Sove- reign, and assuring him of their support of his mea- sures taken lor the preservation of our Protestant Constitution. If such declarations of principle were required then, how much more are they demanded now? No man can deny— the warmest, supporter of Catholic Emancipation must admit— that the recent declarations of the Papists themselves, are in plain English declarations that they will subvert the Pro- testant Church in Ireland, and that they will not stand second to it in England. These facts, we should think, independent, of the unalterable opposi- tion of the Popish Church to every principle of civil and religious liberty, should induce all ranks to step forward, at this crisis, in support of the Constitution as established in ItiSS.— It w as the remarkable feature of the Kent Meeting, that, as it was the first English County in which a stand was now to be made on behalf of our Protestant Constitution, so it was also the place of assembly of every description of those who wished to put their meddling and innovating hands upon that Constitution. They were all there— Black spirits and white, Blue spirits and gray, some boldly pressing a radical upset of the Established Church, others endeavouring to form a vinegar mix- ture of conciliation and humbug, with which they had hoped to overlay the genuine British spirit, which, happily, was not to be prevented from effer- vescing and bearing down all opposition on this most momentous occasion. Marquis Camden, who was recalled from Ireland for his inclination towards the cause of the Old Lady— Dr. Doyle and Mr. Sheil— the Earl of Radnor and his protegee Cobbett— Hunt — with Lord Darnley, and all the host of Pro- Popery men in every variety, put forth their speeches and their nostrums, the former of whieh were justly derided, the latter nobly and boldly rejected. Mr. Sheil, unable to procure a hearing, has managed ( doubtless by means of a portion of the HentJ to get h; s intended speech printed in some of the London Papers; and it is no unmeaning symptom of the present state of affairs, that the Popish Association has contrived to obtain possession of a large portion of the Press, and that Popish Editors are now con- ducting several of the Journals of ( lie country— and conducting some of those Journals too which profess In be opposed to the political interests of many of the leading supporters of the Roman Catholic Question. In the face of all this, the Protestant spirit of Kent beat down all opposition, and has set a triumphant example that ought to be immediately and universally followed,— There is one piece of inimitable farce in the speech printed, for Mr. Sheil, he talks of the liberty possessed by and gained for the people in the days of feudal rule— in the era of the Edw ards and the Henrys; and he says there were no rotten boroughs then !— This might have done in Ireland— in that land of Popish ignorance; but to print such stuff in England is too much. Why the ignoramus need only consult the history in the hands of a. schoolboy to know, that in the feudal ages liberty was a mere name— that a peer was not sure of his head for four and twenty hours— and that a peasant was transferred ( like a slave) along with the land on which he lived. Then for borough history, where in those days was there a contest for borough repre- sentation, save a casual struggle between some two great men, and between tliein alone, who chose to consider themselves the patrons and nomiuors of a borough?— It is really disgraceful to the « march of intellect" of these days for any portion of the Pre to tell us of the hin tI u enjoyed in the " good old times" of Feudal Slavery and Roman Catholic As- cendancy ; but as some of the Papistical Editors have been only recently imported, we must suppose they know nothing of the ancient history of this country, and possibly they may have the impudence to presume that their readers know no more of it than themselves. Possessing, as- our ancestors did, and as Frenchmen well know to their cost, the spirit and courage inherent to the soil, the wonder is, how that spirit and that courage did continue to subsist under the ' coercion of the feudal system and under the tyrannous rule of the See of Rome. The Reform- ation, however, burst the bonds of which our fore fathers complained, and severed the yoke under which they had for ages suffered : it now depends upon the present generation whether we are, with all our boasted advancement in knowledge, to retro, grade to the mummeries of past ages, or whether we are to hold on our proud course in the'enjoyment of genuine civil and religious liberty under a Protestant Constitution and a Protestant Establishment. not surely by the Government; for there went the King's representative, the Lord Lieutenant of the county, to oppose the Protestant party, that is, nearly nil the qualified persons at the meeting, and lo aggravate the indecency of his personal Inter- ference, by an unauthorised allusion to the designs of his Majesty's government. " No— fairly beaten the p?- o- Popery men were; and it is due by the Englishmen of every othfcP' county to show that the enetny was fairly beaten in, Kent; and this they can best show by imitating, as they may with greater ease, the noble example of the victorious champions of the constitution. What are Devon, and Cornwall, and Dorset, and the rest doing? Would to Heaven that they had a Winchilsea in each to rouse them! However, though the want of a leading mind as prompt and vigorous as that which awakened the mind of the people of Kent may retard, it will not ultimately prevent, a Declaration, in which ecery English county will concur. If the Aristocracy neglect the common interest, the People will not protract their respectful attendance upon them very long; they will act for themselves, and may not perhaps forget the desertion of their natural leaders. The call is, however, now made upon the Protestant Aristocracy. They have proof that the People are with them ; and if they are not traitors to their own interests, as well as to the interest of the country, they will lead the People against the Enemy."

As a display of sound English feeling, it is gratifying; but the attributes of power and of temper which gave dignity aud grace to that display, raise it to an importance such as no rnt rely popular assembly ever before attained to j— SIXTY THOUSAND MEN OF KENT! this inwting, says Mr Cobbett in his eh- queut and graphic sketch, " presented to my eyes the finest, the grandest, the noblest sight that ever these eyes beheld,"— and well he might say it. " Pride, iu . tbeip uort, defiance in-•• the- eye*,. 1 see the lords of human, kind- march iiv " So sung the Irish poet of the men of England ; arid those who saw the men of Kent assembled saw the elect of England ; saw them too, animated by the true spirit of Englishmen ; that spirit which must give a tenfold dignity even to these finest specimens of the human species. Men of Kent, may the blessing of the God whom you serve still watch over you: may your sons be like theif fathers- models of manly grace : may your daughters be as their mothers— matchless in beauty and in virtue: may Kent stjll continue lo be what she has ever been— the bulwark, the example, aud the hope of every Englishman ! High as you stood before, men of Kent, this last St. Crispin's Eve, " has gentled your condition." " We must not, however, permit the impressions even of gratitude aud admiration to withdraw us from a reference to the solid and momentous benefits which the result of the late meeting has conferred upon the country. It lias demonstrated in the first place to those who would never think of going to church, to look for the demonstration in the proper place, that the English are still a Christian people; it has shown to the vagabond portion of the com- munity— blacklegs, gamblers, bagmen, fiddlers, mountebank politicians, knights of the post, and gentlemen or' the press,— it demonstrates that, however professionally liberal or latitudiuarian they may be, the possessors and occupiers of the land still love their constitution, their country, and their religion; in a word, that though the surface of society may be here and there deformed with the dirt of the city, the manufactory, or of the high road, the subsoil is free from pollution. That they who constitute the military strength, aud furnish the resources of the state— they who constitute the nation, are to a man English and Protestant. Our enemies, compelled to confess a defeat, charge us indeed with packing a meeting— packing a meeting of' 60,000!! or even at their own fallacious estimate of 30,000! ! What is packing a meeting? it is the bringing to it those who have no right to be there, and the keeping away those who have such right: was there, we ask, one man at the meeting, one man oil the Protestant side, w ho had not a right to be there? Was there one liberal unduly excluded? Had they not, on the other hand, Mr. Sheil and Mr. Shea, Mr. Cobbett, ! VIr. Hunt, Doctor Doyle, aud fifty others, who had about as much right to be present at a Kent meeting as the Pope himself. But by whom was the meeting packed — The Eighteenth Annual Meeting of the SICK MAN'S FRIEND AND LYING- IN CHARITY, in this town, was held last week. The Report read upon the occasion, and about to be circulated, shows that the Society has been in active operation during the last, year, having'! visited and relieved 305 cases, with money, medicines, clothing, & c. & tc. as they severally needed. The Receipts appear to have been larger than in any' former year; yet, its ^ Disbursements to so many afflicted objects being greater also, exclusive of the debt due to the Treasurer in 1827, there is a present Deficiency to the amount of £ 34. 19s. 5d. This, certainly, is adapted to cripple the; exertions of the Committee in the approaching winter, when, as may' be fairly presumed, they wiil be particularly called for. But it is the cause of humanity; and, as the necessities of the Society increase, there can be little reason to doubt that benevolent friends will repair to its assistance. It surely cannot be that such an effective agent in the work of real charity will be suffered to languish for want of support. We shall be glad to have it in our power to announce the addition of many new Subscribers and Contributors. Visiting Clergyman this week at the Infirmary, the Rev.

The ANNUAL MEETING of the Mem- bers will be held at the HUNDRED HOUSE, at NORTON, on THURSDAY, the Sixth Day of November next. At an early hour on Fridayj preparations were made upon a proper scale, to afford facility to all who were desirous of attending the meeting. A waggon stage was ejected for the High Sheriff and his officers, in front Of the hut which stands on the Heath; waggons were arranged and left of this central point. On the right of the Sheriff' appeared the stands of the Liberal party, placards were displayed, amongst which were noticed the words—" Civil and Religious Liberty,' 1—" No Dictation of Clubs,"-— " Legislative influence alone." On the left hand appeared the stands for the friends and supporters of the Constitution^ as by law established. The first waggon was appropriated to Lord Winchilsea; and a great number of his party. The: long range of waggons, adjoining that of Lord Winchilseu,, and extending over the heath, vvas occupied by the yeomen and farmers, wearing oak in their Caps and hats. . Their general appearance excited much in- terest. The men, dressed in smock frocks^ intermixed with the Sheriff's javelin men, in scarlet aiid light blue livery, made a fine display. At half- past ten o'Clock, Mr. Sheil made his appearance. A procession from Canterbury with bkie streamers and other insignia came on the ground; Cobhett and Hunt came at half- past, ten, and took their station among the civil and religious liberty men:— Lord Winchcls'ea came at half- past eleven* and was received with three cheers. A procession, came up with a green flag, inscribed " Catholic Emancipation. 1' This was hoisted over She. il, and, after loud hisses, pulled down. A light blue silk flag, inscribed, " Civil and religious Liberty," was then hoisted and allowed to stand. Sir Thomas Maryon Wilson, the High Sheriff, opened the business of the day by observing that the object of the meeting was to petition parliament to adopt such, measures as were calculated to preserve our Protestant constitution. He trusted that the dis- cussion would be conducted in a manner becoming the county of Kent; and particularly that no topic would be introduced foreign to the purpose for which the meeting was assembled. He had received a letter from Mr. Honeywood, one of the representatives of the county, regretting that serious indisposition prevented his attendance at the meeting. The requisition for the mice ting having been read by the Under Sheriff, George Gypps, Esq. rose to address the meeting. It was ( he said) peculiarly gratifying to him to meet so numerous an assembly peaceably met to petition parliament on this important question. Nothing could have induced him to propose the petition to parliament, but a conviction that if the claims of the Roman Catholics were conceded, the constitution would be without a pilot or a rudder to direct its course; the British constitution must not be sur- rendered to nobody knows who. They had been charged with calling the meeting to introduce alterations in the constitution. He saw opposite to hitn, in large characters, " Civil and Religious Liberty." Now, said the honourable gentleman,, it is for that we contend— that for which, a century and a half ago, the men of Kent contended for on the site upon which we stand. The question is, shall we petition the legislature to maintain their ground, or to give up the constitution ? I do not mean, said he, to say, that if the Roman Catholics were to be admitted to power, we should have a renewal of the days of bloody Queen Mary ; God forbid that I should make any statements with a view to inflame your minds, or utter a single word beyond the truth. I3ut I boldly assert, that if you do consent to admit the Catholics to power, the threshold of the constitu- tion will be passed, and a doorway will be opened to struggle and innovation. I do not mean to say that the Roman Catholics of the present day would over- turn the constitution, if admitted to a full exercise of its privileges; but, gentlemen, we must look to principles, not to. men. (' Cheers.) When we see the present disturbed and distracted state of Ireland, owing to the manner in which the Catholics mix up their temporal with their spiritual allegiance ; when we see the over- ruling power exercised by the Catho- lic Association— a power beyond the law— a power against which no one Roman Catholic Bishop in Ireland has hitherto raised his voice ( A cry of " Not one" J ; when you see a member of that Association offering himself as a candidate for the representation of a great county, although he knew he could not take his seat; when I know that that person, even on his way. to the hustings, bowed his knee to his fellow- man ; when I saw the Catholic clergy leading their flocks— not to the fold of salvation, but to an unna- tural and unsocial struggle, instituted in order to sever all the friendly connexions— forcibly to break all the natural bonds of union, and to subvert the foundations of the state ( tremendous applause}; I say, that when I see all these things, I cannot but doubt the purity of that religion which could lead to such acts of disorder and violence. f Hear, hear, hear.) I am sure, gentlemen, that this great Protest- ant county will never consent to extend to the mem- bers of that religion, the political privileges of the constitution. ( Cries of " No, no") Spiritual ty ranny produces acts of temporal violence. He would say, preserve this great free Protestant constitution, as it was fixed in 16S8f cheers J ; after King James, having bound himself by a solemn oath to preserve the Protestant constitution, attempted to overturn it. CLoud, cheers. J Under that constitution our an- cestors flourished, and under that constitution we are anxious to live a great, happy, and a free nation— the pride and admiration of the world. ( Cries of " No Popery.'' 1 J Shall not we, then, by our conduct here to- day, endeavour to transmit the blessings of that constitution unimpaired to our posterity? ( Cries of " We Will, we will, we are determined to do it. J Brother freeholders, 1 ask such of you as arc Protestant dissenters, whether you do not find your liberties increased? I ask you whether you do not enjoy the exercise Of your church worship with as much freedom and security as we do ours ? ( Cries of yes.) I wish from my heart that you all belonged to our church, but that cannot be. There is another point, upon which I feel anxious to say ji few words, although this is not perhaps the most proper place for entering upon it— I mean the securities which it is said the Roman Catholics might be called upon to give for the protection of the Protestant church; I wish to God that such securities could be found. If 1 knew how such securities could be devised, I would be the last man to keep those who could give them from a full enjoyment of the constitution. But, I repeat, that at present I know of none. Perhaps the illustrious individual now at the head of the govern- ment may strike out some such . securities; but hitherto we have had much saying' and but. little doing on the subject. Are we, then, I ask, to consent to give power to the Roman Catholics, in the absence of ail securities ? ( No, no, no; and loud cheers.) Shall we allow them to legislate for our church, while they refuse to allow the legislature to interfere in the government of theirs ? ( No, no.) Are we to give political power to those, who, if they are sincere their belief— and I give them credit for their sincerity— would endeavour to pull our church down? (" No, no; they shan't do that I' 1) I say, then, that, until they allow the legislature to regulate their church ( « No, no; we don't want anything to do with their church"), 1 should consider it a happy day both for this country and for Ireland too, if ample securities could be given. But I fear nothing of the kind can be devised; for if the hierarchy of Ireland were to enter into a compact with govern- ment, even with the sanction of the Pope, that compact could be annulled by the next Pope. ( Cries of No, no.) I say it could, and I make the assertion on the statement upon oath, made by Dr. Doyle, a leading Catholic bishop, before a committee of the House of Lords. ( Hear, hear, hear.) Where, then, 1 ask, is the security to the church against Catholic innovation? [ A person in the crowd— We have it in our strength— We have it in the laic ] Mr. Gypps continued.— Brother freeholders, we have no such security ; and I speak from the convic- tion of my whole life when I assure you, that the best way to promote general liberty— the best way to promote and secure social happiness, and the enjoy- ment of every blessing, is to stand where we are, and resist all further innovation on our glorious constitu- tion. Let us keep fast hold of the. blessings we enjoy : that is the best security. ( Cheers.) There is one other point upon which I wish to address you. We should have some feeling for the situation of our fellow Protestants in Ireland. If Catholic emancipa- tion were to be carried to its fullest extent, it w ould be some time before its effects w ould be felt in Eng- land ; but I firmly believe, that not a single day would elapse before its effects would be felt by the Protestants of Ireland. This I am the more fully i on vine ed of by looking at the proceedings of the Catholic Association in Dublin, and when I look back to the manner in which the priests led the people to acts of violence in 1798. I have been told that we are to have the abolition of tithes proposed to us in the course of the day ; I see several noble lords on the other side of the meeting and I hope the person who is to make that motion will receive from them and from the freeholders in general, a reception similar to that which awaited him on his entrance into Maidstone yektercjay^ this, at least, lie ( Cobbett) deserves fof gdltt$ aiout making speeches t?> suit, his private With the leave of the meeting, I will now reft'd the petition which t mean to propose for their adoption. The honourable gentleman then read the following petition:— " To the Hon. the House of Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, iu parliament assembled. " t" he huuib e petition of the undersigned free- holders of the county of Kent, " ^ lieweth— That, your petitioners beg leave to express to your honourable,, house their- deep sense of the blessiiigs they enjoy undPr the Protestant consti- tution of these kingdoms, which was settled at the Revolution, Vijewino with the deepest regret the proceedings which,; for a long time past, hjive been carrying oil in Ireland, your petitioners feel themselves imperatively called upon to declare their strong and inviolable at tachme'ut to those Protestant principles w lritfh have proved the best security for the civil and religious liberty of these kingdoms. They, therefore, approach your ffouotirahle house, humbly but earnestly praying thai the Protestant constitution, of the united, kingdom hiay he preserved entire and inviolate. Aud your petitioners will ever pray." At the conclusion of Mr. Gypps' speech the cheer- ing was both long and loud, and was repeated during the reading of the petition. • J. P. Plumptre, Esq. in seconding the motion, said that he stood in the place of his friend Mr. Warde, a Wba « * of Jfie old school, who was prevented attending. At this momentous crisis the important subject which oecupiejd the attention of the meeting was that of civil arid religious liberty. We are met, not as noblemen and gentlemen— not as rich and poor— not as men of East Kent and Wrest Kent— but as in- habitants of the noble county of Kent, to petition parliament, earnestly, undictatorially, but firmly, to preserve iu violate our glorious Protestant constitution: ( Immense cheers.) Men of Kent, be loyal to your King, be faithful to your constitution — but aboye all be faithful to your God, that this free and great cOuntry may be the glory of the world. ( Cheers.) The j> tirquis Camden presented himself to the Meeting, and expressed himself strongly in favour of Catholic Emancipation. He deprecated the attempt to inflame the people OT England by the means of Brunswick Clubs. These Clubs are few and impotent. ( No, no.),- Then if they were numerous, they were decidedfyoidangerous; lie disapproved of them, and he depre ated still more the violence of the Catholic Association ; and he wished from his heart that some member of that Catholic Association were now present, jn. order that he might hear an old and sincere friend of the Catholics condemn publicly the violent, Seditious, and almost treasonable, proceedings Of, that jbody. ( Loud applause;) Mut whilst he con< k> mii< « ! that body, he felt for the condition of the peopl^ Of^ vfi'and j and he felt that the strength and securilty ; of this united Kingdom depended upon the tranquillization of Ireland. The Catholic Question was daily gaining ground with the people of England, and to their good sense he wished to leave it. Lord Darn ley solemnly protested against the sub- stance of the Petition which had been proposed to them. He was nearly and dearly connected with Ireland, and he would ask, if that country was not already sufHciently inflamed, without having a meet" ing called of the Freeholders of Kent to throw an additional firebrand into that mine of gunpowder.— ( Cheers and hisses.) You believe, because it might, have been necessary to exclude Catholics from the full benefit of the Constitution at the time of the Revolution, that the same necessity exists still; but such was not the case, for at that period the Catholic religion was intimately connected with arbitrary power.—( Cries of " We do not want faggots?')— Much had been id of the cruelty and intolerance of the Catholics in the time of Mary, but he felt bound to deny that the Catholics of the present day, enter- tained such feelings ; they no longer entertained hostility to civil and religious liberty. ( Cries of " They do?). He , was persuaded that the Catholics could uot. abuse the power that would be granted them, if they would ; and he was equally persuaded they would not if they could.—( Cheers.) Ireland was now quiet., and why was it. so ? It was because of that very Association which they had vainly at- tempted to put down. The Noble Duke at the head of his Majesty's Government would act wisely in conceding the claims made by his Irish countrymen. The Ear! of Winchilsea then said—" Men of Kent, and brother freeholders, I stand here to address you in the great and proud character of a freeholder of the county of Kent ( bravo! great chcers)— a county, of which;! shall boldly assert, that it does not deserve those charges Of iliiberality which have been poured forth against it » and that, it is second to none in a steady. and'warm attachment to the best principles of civil and religious liberty. ( Hear, cheers.) The freeholders of this county will show, I hope, this day, that as they were the last, on a former occasion, to surrender their liberties to a foreign conqueror, they will,. now be the first to stand forward to defend those prhlc| pik< i of our Protestant constitution which had long Secured to the people of this country more liberty, and: greater political power, than had ever been enjjoyed by any country on the face of the earth, ( gentlemen, and brother freeholders, I shall offer yoir^ a few observations on the momentous ques- tion we £ re this day assembled to consider; and I shall clearly state why I withhold my assent from every motion for giving political power to his Majes- ty's Ronhan- Catholic subjects ; which, if they possessed, they would ( he believed) destroy all those principles which the men of Kent cherished; and which, lie. believed, had been preserved greatly to our happiness, by those laws which excluded the Catho- lics from ' power.- ( Hear, hear.) I solemnly and sincerely declare, that my opposition to the Roman Catholic claims arises from no feeling of hostility against the members of that church, either indivi- dually,- or collectively. With many of the members of thi\ t <? hurch I live on terms of harmony and friendship, which I hope will not l> e disturbed by the opinions I honestly entertain. ( Bravo, and cheers.) My opposition, I say, does not arise from any hos- tility towards the members of that church, but from the principles of that church itself, which principles I defy any man to prove to have been altered since they were, in the judgment of Our forefathers, found to be essentially hostile to the principles of civil and religious? iiUert\, ( Cheers)* I lirmly think that we Cannot , concede the possession of political power to the Roman Catholics, without endangering the Pro- testant institutions of this empire, t will not occupy your time long, 1 will not appeal to the pages of history with a view of showing you that the principles of the Roman. Catholic church are the principles of ' intolerance. ' In what I have to say, I wish not to excite any angry feelings— I wish not , to harrow up your souls by recalling to your recollection the many painful scenes which make me conclude, from the mode in which they formerly exercised it, that, we cannot safely trust political power in the hands of the Catholics. ( Loud cheers.) It wilt be sufficient if I appeal to the testimony afforded by the history of the period between the reformation and the revolution of 1088, to show that political power cannot, be conceded to the Catholics consistently with safety to the Protestant principles of our constitution. The principles of the Catholics I am led to affirm, by the confession and statements of their own clergymen, are now as bigotted and intolerant as they ever were;- and so intolerant as to justify the Protestants in now excluding them from political power, as they formerly justified our ancestors in placing the sceptre in the hands Of the House of Brunswick. ( Applause.) Whatever some persons may say, 1 defy an- y gentle- man opposite to show that they have ever abandoned, in any degree, those priuciples which formerly iuduced; the people of this country to excludc them, and which were hostile to those principles the people of tbis^ cOuntry have pledged themselves firmly to supporL • ( Bravo ! bravo ! hurrah ! hurrah !) Wc are^ accused by the noble Lord opposite of trying to acconjipjish our object by clubs, by which, he says, we mean,.. to dictate to the government. ( No, no.) I honestly and sincerely assert that, this is not founded in fact. The clubs are only intended to advocate the principles of our Protestant constitution, and do what we can to uphold those principles. ( Cheers.) We are charged with illiberality, because we exclude the Roman- Catholics ; but I maintain that in every state, the great body of the people have a right W- make, and are justified in making, such laws as will secure the principles which are the basis of their constitution. ( Bravo, bravo.) If any individuals, or any body of men, were found, whom it was necessary on account of their own principles to^ exclude, it was just, it . was necessary, it was expedient to prevent them from destroying . those institutions to which they were opposed. This is all that is done to the Roman Catholic^; gentlemen, the Roman Catholic subjects of this empire have the full enjoyment of their religious opinions, f" No, no." " Thetf hare, they, have^) Tliev have the full and free enjtiymeilt of all their wealth and property. (" iSo, no," " lev,' they havQ their full share.") If there were any law Which affected them on these points, which prevented them from the full and fair enjoyment, of their pro- perty and wealth, I should be one of the first nien to stand forward and propose a measure of repeal. [ Cheers) I never have shown, and I hope I never shall show, myself intolerant. ( Cheers) All the people who may live under me have, I am sure, no reason to complain on this account; and, in any little favour it may be in my power to bestow, I never make any difference between persons of different religious persuasions. It is because 1 am a friend to civil and religious liberty, that I oppose the admission of the Catholics to political power— that I oppose all further concessions to them, and shall oppose all such con- cessions, till they, openly." abjure- the principles which ar the distinguishing characteristic of their church- till they are liberated from that spiritual thraldom under which they now labour, and which affects all their conduct, both spiritual and temporal:— till that time, I shall give my conscientious vote to support, the law as it HOW stands.. ( Cheers.) Brother free- holders, in stating most sincerely the grounds on which I stand forward to oppose further concessions to the Catholics, I must, say that 1 feel convinced, and no man can show the contrary, that the character and principles of Ihe. Roman Catholic church are not now different from what they formerly were. ( No, no) If so, let the change be proved, let us be shown at what period, and by what, authority, this change was effected, and when the intolerant principled of the church were removed. But I challenge the support- ers of the Catholics to the proof. Look at Spain— look at. Portugal, where intolerance prevails to as great an extent as at any period of history, and where the people are still held in that wretched state of thraldom which distinguished the peasantry of Ire- land. [ Lovd cheers) There was no sign of any change in the opinions of the Catholics. Look to Germany* my lord. Do not be deceived, brother freeholders; this measure will not tranquillize Ire- land. I trust that the country and the government will bring forward sortie measure, arid they shall have my support, which shall give the wretched peasantry of that country food and clothing. It is a deception to suppose that this measure cause's the misery of Ireland. (" Bi aro, bravo. Why do not you bring forward something ?") I hope the legislature wiil bring forward some measure to compel those gentle- men, whether English noblemen or Irish noblemen, who have large properties in Ireland, to circulate some part of their income in that coUntry from which it is derived. (" This is the point. Bravo, my lord.") Let. them he amenable in their purse for those destructive depredations which are of such frequent Occurrence in that country, arid Which arise from the rancour and hostility of the inflamed parties.' It is not that the Protestants there are intolerant, it is that both there and here they are now aroused to the sense of the danger which awaits them, f haVe seen a paper which you shall see—^ a paper published in the town of DrOgheda— in which all the Catholic in- habitants are forbidden; under a penalty, to deal with any Protestants. If this is not intolerance, what is ? I cannot come, therefore, conscientiously, to the opinion expressed by the Lord Lieutenant of this county, my distinguished friend— though 1 should be glad, could I do so, to defer to his opinion— but I can- not conceive that there is no new ground to otter further opposition to admitting the Catholics into the possession of political power; and I do conceive, as the petition states, that it is necessary to keep invio- late that, constitution Under which the people of this country have so long enjoyed happiness and security — which has bestowed on us all the blessings we enjoy, and has. raised this country to a pitch of earthly grandeur and greatness far beyond whatever was attained by any other nation. ( Lo id and con* tinned cheers.) The constitution will, 1 trust, be protected by every liberal Protestant ; and you will, I hope, come forward this day, and, with one voice, give your support to that constitution, and declare your resolution to oppose any attempt to remove any of those principles on which it was first founded. ( Question, question, from the right side.) One word more, brother freeholders The liberty which wc enjoy 1 wish every man, whether Roman ( Catholic, or a member of the Church of England, or a Dissenter, also to enjoy ; and I can sincerely say, that I gave my cordial support to the measure for the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, though that measure went a little further than I could have wished. I say a little further, and 1 beg leave to explain why! [ should not object to admitting arty man to the benefit of those Acts who is within the pale of Christianity, whether be be a Dissenter of the one class Or another, but 1 think it went too far when it embraced Maho medans and other persons not Christians, and even of no religion at all, and gave them admission to the legislature. I approve of that measure as far as the Dissenters are concerned, for whom I have great respect."— The Noble' Earl sat down amidst loud cheers. Mr. S'hee, art English Roman Catholic, next addressed the Meeting, but amidst so much tumult as to be almost entirely inaudible.- Lord Teynham and Mr. Sheil rO^ e at the same time, but the latter gave place to the noble peer, who opposed the petition on these grounds :•— It was objectionable', because the: claihis of the Roman Catholics were' just, and it was expedient to grant those claims. Mr. Pitt had pledged himself to concessions, and that pledge had been violated. Until they granted those claims it would be futile to expect the peace of Ireland. Mr. Sheil then presented himself; the Sheriff doubted his qualification ; but it appeared that lie had obtained a freehold for the purpose ( hy means of the Bent we suppose).. He then proceeded ;• but.' it' was almost impossible to hear him from the continued clamour against him and the Catholic Association. He told the crowd they were indebted to Roman Catholic's for their liberties; that boroughs were not rotten in the Roman Catholic times ; that the Roman Catholics only wanted their just share of liberty and privilege ; and implored the meeting to leave the question in the hands of Parliament. . A Mr. Larkin, an auctioneer, next addressed the meeting, amid the jeers and gibes of the populace. He opposed the Petition.' Sir Edward Knatchbull was now called for, and Ke spoke at considerable length. He told the assembly the Protestant feeling of the Country should be supported by his best energies in Parliament; and his whole address was received with loud applause. Cobbett, Hunt, a Mr. Hodges ( who proposed au amendment for leaving matters to his Majesty's Ministers), the Earl of Radnor, Mr. Calcraft, and others of the Liberal party, then successively attempted to address the meeting; but their efforts were in vain ; they could only be heard in detached sentences; the assembled freeholders Would not, listen to any more from that side; an 1 their high mightinesses the crowd at last hooted them down.— The scene was one that beggared all description. The High Sheriff at length put the question ; when the Petition proposed by Mr. Gypps was- carried bv, as its friends say, lo to t, or, as its enemies admit, by an overwhelming majority- Three times three cheers, with " one cheer more," were then given by the Protestant party; and the assembly immediately dispersed in peace :'.. the Earl of Winchilsea having first carried a motion that copies of the Petition should be dispersed throughout the County for the signature of the freeholders. There had been much tact on the part of the Oppositionists; they had strained every nerve; mustered every friend ; and, although many of them could not be heard, they have most of them contrived to get their intended addresses into print. Liberalism was entirely out of favour with the great mass of the freeholders, and with the populace.— It may shew the humour of the affair, to notice the way in which several of the speakers were greeted on this occasion. Lord Camden, when he assured the meeting that he had supported the measure of Roman Catholic emancipation, was greeted by the cry of " We are very sorry for it," 44 More fool you;" when he spoke of the Brunswick Clubs not being nutn TOUS, he was told " They will be, though;" when lie gave it as his opinion that they were d ulcerous, a loud laugh followed the observation.— His lordship's intellect was rudely appreciated by the mob, much in the manner as it is complimented by Mr. T. Moore; and the impolite exclamations of 1,4 calfsnead,'' •• blockhead," " ass," 44you were b illicd out of your sinecure by Cobbett," & c. & c. were heard iii all directions froth the crowd. Lord Darnley was hailed by cries of " question, fjuestiou," " old prosj," ' 4 no faggots," 4< no popery," " stuff— nonsense," " don't twaddle all dav," " o( f$ off," & c. and his threats of the overwhelming force of the seven millions were received with derision. In fact, his lordship was treated with little ceremony, and found it as difficult to command & hearing ort: Peimeriden Heath as he does in the House of Lords. He had, however; the advantage of hearing with more candour than the forms of that aristocratic assembly permit, what is tile general opinion of the country With respect io liis Oratorica a ulities.

The passion for fox hunting is the very strongest that can possess the heart, nor, of all the heroes of antiquity, ii there one to our imagination more poetical ( hSn Niitirod. His whole character is giVeu, and his whole history in two words, Mighty Hunter, That he hit tiled the fox is not probable; for the sole aim and end of Iris existence was, not to extermin- ate, that would have been cuttin'g his own throat, but lo thin man- devouring wild beast. Hie Pari!*, with Leo at their head. But in a land like thr » * where not even a wolf has existed frti centuries,- nor a wild boar, the same spirit that would have driven the British youth on Ihe tusk and paw of the lion and tiger,• mounts them in scarlet on such steeds us never neighed befofe the flood, nor " summered high iu bliss" on the sloping pastures of nndeliiged Ararat, and gathers them together in gallant array on the edge of the covers " When first the hunter's startling lioril II heard, Upon the golden hill.." What a squadron of cavalry ! What fiery eyes and flaming nostrils, betoken with what ardent passion the noble animals will revel in Ihe chase! Bay, brown, black, dun, chesmit, sorrel, gray, of all shades and hiies, and every courser distinguished by his own peculiar character of shape and form, yet till blending harmoniously as they frown the mount; so that a painter would only hate to group and colour them as thev stand, nor lose; if able to catch them, one of the dazzling lighls or deepening shadows streamed On them front that Sunny yet not linstormy sky; Yon read iu books of travels and romances, of Barbs and Arabs gallop) ig in the desert; and well does Sir Walter speak of Saladin al the head of his Saracenic chivalry; but take our word for it, great part of all such descriptions are mere falsehood or fudge. Why should dwellers in the desert always be guing at full speed' Aud how can that fiilt speed be any tiling more than a slow heavy hand- gallop at life best, tlie barbs being up to tlie belly at every stroke? They are always, it is said( in high condition, but W " who know something about horse- flesh give that assertion the lie. They have seldom any tiling either to eat or drink, are as leaii as church mice, and covered wilh clammy sweat before they b ite trotted a league from the tent. And. then, such a set of absurd riders, with knees up to their noses, like so many tailors riding to Brentford, via the deserts of Arabia! Such bits, such bridles, and such saddle's! But the whole sei- out, rider and ridden, accoutrement* aud alt, is too much lor one s gravity, and must occasional frequent laugh to Ihe wild ass as he goes braying unhar- nessed by; But look there! Arabian blood and British bonei Not bred in and in to the death of all Ihe fine strong animal spirits, but blood inter- mingled and interfused by twenty crosses, nature exulting in each sriccessive produce; till her power cau no further go, and, in yonder glorious gray, " f. ives i bo world assurance of ahorse!'.' " A KOR* C ! A twine! A kln^' hun for a horse !" Form the three hiiitdreri into squadron; or squad- rous, aud in the baud of each rider a sabre aloue, none of your lances, all bare his breast, but for the silver laced blue, the gorgeo. us uniform of IheHussar* of Kngland, confound all cuirasses and cuirassiers ! Lei the trumpet sound a charge, and ten thousand - of the proudest of the Barbaric chivalry be opposed with , spe[ » i'and scimitar, and through their snow- ranks wilt the three hundred go like thaw, upliltivig- them into dissolution with ihe, noise of thunder. The proof of the pudding is in the eating of it, ' and where, we ask, were th § British cavalry ever overthrown? And how could Ihe great north country horse- conpers perforin their. contracts, but for the triumphs of Ihe turf? Blood, blood, there must be, either for strength, speed, or endurance. The very heaviest cavalry, fhe Life Guards aud the Scots Greys, and all other dragoons, must have blood. But without racing and fox- hunting where could it be found ? Such pastimes nerve one of the arms of the nation when in battle ; but for them it would be palsied. What better education, too, not only for the horse, but his rider, before playing a bloodier game in his first war campaign? Thus he becomes deinicorpsed with the noble animal; and what easy, equable motion to him, is afterwards a charge over a wide level plain, with nothing in the way but a few regiments of flying Frenchmen ! The hills aud dales of merry Ivugland have been the best riding- school to her gentlemen, her gentlemen who have not lived at home at ease; but wilh Paget, and Stewart, and Seymour, and Cotton, and Somerset, and Vi vian, have left I heir hereditary halls, and all Ihe peaceful pastimes pursued among the sylvan scenery, to try the mettle of their steeds, and cross swords wilh the vaunted Gallic chivalry; and still • have they been iu the shock victorious; witness the skirmish that astonished VmoI" mi at Saldauha; the overthrow lhat uncrowned him at Waterloo Blackwood's Magazine. On Monday last, the reveue officers of Gravesen. l observing a sloop ( if about one hundred tons bnrilai being towed lip the river tinder circumstances which excited their suspicion, the Inspector jwent on boahf, and on a close examination of her cargo, lie found that a thin surface of corn concealed an extensile cargo of foreign brandy. The vessel was of course seized, as was also her. captain, and- on searthing the person of the latter, there was found on liini one document alone, which shewed that she was the bearer of 201) 0 tubs of brandy, for the London market, without intending to trouble the Custom- house for permission to land them. The captain was brought on shore,- and.. deposited in the Gravesc d gaol; about two o'clock id the afternoon, however, three men, dressed in smock frocks, cohtHved to effect his escape by stratagem, placed him in a light cart, drawn by a blood horse, which they hail ready In a neighbouring street, and were speedily beyrtnd pursuit. The cargo is considered to he worth £ 20,000. The premature death of Captain Canning, of the Alligator, was announced 011 Friday. The gallant officer, it. appears, was drowned on the 24th ult. while bathing in a tank 011 the island of Madeira. Saturday afternoon the ceremony of opening the St. Katharine Docks took place 111 the presence of at least 20,000 persons. SALOPIAN JOURNAL ® AMP COUKIEU OF WALES, [ FOH THE SALOPIAN JOURNAL] A SONG.

DARING BURCI. ARY.— One of the most daring burglaries of which we have recently heard was com- mitted at Overbury, near Tewkesbury, on Wednesday night last. Mrs. Brydges, an elderly unmarried female, and one maid- servant, occupy a large house in mat L « autiful and sequestered village, and about midnight two rulnans, with their faces enveloped in handkerchiefs, who had obtained access to the house through the cellar window, entered the bed- room of Mrs. B. and demanded her keys, which were of course fcivt- n up, as they threatened to murder her if they were withheld : one of the fellows then remained at the chamber door, to prevent her giving alarm, whilst the other ransacked the house. Having packed up all her plate, which was of considerable value, anil secured what money they could find,- amounting to between thirty and forty pounds, they we » t to the servant's bed- room, and threatened her also with instant death if she did not deliver to them tiie whole of her money, but upon the poor girl assuring them that she had not yet received her wages, they returned to her mistress* and demanded her watch. This, however, the old lady positively declared she would not. give up, even if she lost her life by the refusal; whereupon one of the fellows called to the other to assist, him in putting his horrible threat into execution, and was only prevented from com- muting murder by his less ferocious companion. After this, they fastened their victim iu heu bed- room, telling her and her servant that if they attempted to give the least alarm, they would return, and their lives would pay the forfeit. The villains then went down stairs, where they regaled themselves with whatever they could tind in the pantry- and cellar, and did not quit the premises till m- avly three o'clock iu the morning. \&' e are s » rey to hear that they have hitherto eluded, justice ; but from the knowledge they appear to have had of the interior of the house, it may be interred that they either were not entirely strangers, or they must, have had accomplices who were well actpiaintcd with the situation ot the booty which they were, in ; jt; cst of, and we hope soon to hear of their being apprehended.. A MAN SHOT UY A SKRINK GIN.— Samuel Ashton, who lived; in a cottage at Stay ley Wood, situate in . a lonely place and steep valley, between two of the highest'mountains in Cheshire, was lately visited by an ofrUeer in the army, whose ancestors had Jived in the neighbourhood, and'wishing to make the cottage an- occasional residence tor- himself prevailed upon Ashton to remove with his family into another cottage, at a short - distance j after w hich, Ash- ton and his son slept at the cottage so given up in the officer's } il) s< nee, and iu the evening of the ' 28th of last month, Ashton, before going to bed, set two spring guns in the house- place and parlour, so that any one attempting to pass through it would he shot. The wire from the other gun was fixed across the head of the stairs, opposite Ash tan's bedroom door. Both of these guns were charged with at hast half a dozen bullets. On the following morning, Ashton and his son . got v. p together ; but expecting a cow to be calving, he directed his son to go into the field to look at her, but cautioned him to keep off the wire of the gun below, as otherwise lie would be shot The son then left his father in the bed room, and before he reached the cow, he heard the report of a gun at the house, and on his return, he found his father King dead ou the parlour floor, with his feet near tin , door, and his body extended into the room. It appeared that several bullets had entered his hack, and passe d through his body. After a full investiga- tion upon the C oroner's- Inquest, which took place a few days afterwards, the Jury were fully satisfied that the deceased had been attempting to loosen the wive attached to the gun without using suti'. eient caution, whereby the gun had gone off* and that he had bee? i thereby accidentally killed, and they fo. und a verdict accordingly. It appeared from what was stated upoit the Inquest, that the deceased felt; no hesitation about shooting a man in the defence of any property with which he was entrusted^ ijiockport Adrerti er. 1 '. XTit Aoit Di N Ait v CoL'Ri).— One of the finest specimens of this beautiful fruit that has been seen in this county for many years, was exhibited at the late meetjng of the Horticulii* val Society at Gloucester, where it obtained a prize of the tirst class. It was grown in the garden of Mr. Edward Orme, of Tewkesbury, and nieastned tf feet 5 inches in circumference— the weight was 1231bs.

KKEFING APFLKS— When there is frost, all that you have to do, is to keep the apples in a state of total darkness until some days after a complete thaw has come. In America they arc frequently frozen as hard as stones; if they thaw in the light y they rot; but if they thaw in darkness, they not only do not ? ot, but lose very little of their original flavour. This'may be new to the English reader 3 but lie may depend that the statement is correct. Agitator. What f John Bull in Ireland! Who would have thought of seeing you among us, while we are in such a state of convulsion > John Bull. The. very thing that brings me over. What do yon mean by all this clamour and agitation? Never mind your metaphors and balderdash, bat tell me in plain English. A . Why, Mr. Bull, we want nothing but our rights. B. Your rights! 1 dont know any rights that you are prevented from exercising. A. Oh yes, Mr. Bull; we are not allowed to sit in Parliament, nor to hold several offices of trust and power in the State. B. Very true; but you are wrong to call those things your rights. The principle 011 which you are excluded is this:— tn civil society there must be particular regulations. Our whole system is full of regulations, whereby individuals, and whole classes, suffer exclusion and disabilities; but all this is for the good of the whole. In your case the distinction is this; we do not deprive you of rights, but we exclude you from certain trusts, and the reason is, because we cannot trust you. A. But why should it be thought necessary to exclude the members of our religion more than any other, from Parliament and from power? Why can- not we be trusted ? li. Our's is a Protestant Constitution : our's is a Protestant Church : and it Would be very dangerous to both, to allow Papists to legislate for them. A'. Indeed, Mr. Bull, it Would be attended with 110 danger at all. O11 the contrary, it Would greatly strengthen the British Constitution, and likewise the Church of Eng>\ nd. B. 1 cannot see that. But come; I am a plain man; prove what you say, and you shall have emancipation, as you call it, directly. A.- Well then, in tlie first place, we Catholics are great admirers of toleration, and every thing liberal; and w ould not, for the world, do any thing hostile to the Constitution, or the Church of England. B. You must be strangely altered then : for you • once held very different notions, and, as 1 am told, . they stand to this day in your public records and the most solemn decrees and acts of your church. A. Very true ; but we do not practically maintain those notion*: we look upon them as 110 better than an old almanack. H. If that be all your value for them, why not abolish them, and satisfy us that your principles, in these respects, are changed ? A. You know, Mr. Bull, our church professes to be unchanged and unchangeable. B. Then you must be very inconsistent members of 5 our church, if von hold one thing and she another. Besides, I am; not quite sure that you are so very liberal as you say. A. Why the word is never out of- our mouths, Mr. Bull. B. Aye— sayings and doings, you know: for my part, 1 look to people's actions; and I see any thiug but toleration and liberality in yours. A. Indeed! Pray what can you possibly allude to ? l>. 1 ailude to your intolerant persecution of Pro- testant religious societies* You interrupt their pro- ceedings ; you refuse them liberty to circulate the word of God ; you abuse and malign- all who attempt' to do so; you force your own people to contribute to your illegal tax— the rent; and if any one refuse to do so, or oppose jour violent unconstitutional pro- ceedings, you ruin him in his trade,. you attempt to— A. Why, as to those things, we think it lawful- to use any means by w hich we may pusli- our object's. . li. Then, Sir, I am at a loss to understand, how the admission of such men and such principles into Par- liament, can strengthen the Protestant Constitution or the Established Church. A. But you must allow, Mr. Bull; that it is very illiberal, on your part, to shut us out from Parliament on account of our religion. Why should not every main be suffered to worship God iu his own way ? Why should the Catholics alone be thus persecuted ? li. Who hinders you from worshipping God in your own Popish idolatrous way ? You are now confounding things in order to puzzle me ; but' I shall keep you to the point. There is no persecution, nor any thing like it; and what is more, it is not on account of your differing from us, in religious matters, properly so called, that you are shut out of Parliament A. For what else then? B. Because your religion does not confine itself to speculative. points, but mixes itself much and danger- ously with politics. Witness the late proceedings at elections— witness the whole history of the Popish church. We exclude you not for the spiritual de- merits of your religion, if you make politics part of your religion, it signifies nothing to us, whether you call this part by the name of religion or not : it is because these politics are most dangerous, and have a direct practical tendency fo overturn the Protestant Constitution, that we exclude yon. A. I do not understand your reasoning: religion and politics ought to be kept quite distinct, and 110 man should suffer, in his civil interests, on account of his creed. i>. That sounds very fine out of the mouth of a Papist to be sure. But suppose this case :— A man professes a strange sort of religion, which, instead of confining itself to spiritual things, enjoins upon him, as a religious duty, to ta- ke the property of the rich by force, and give it to the poor. If such a set of religionists could be f und, Would it be a harsh or unjust measure to exclude them from legislative powers? A. We do not hold any such wild notions. /*. No; but you hold opinions which would lead you to disturb the connexion between Church and State, and the numerous relations which depend upon it. A; I do not see why there should be any such connexion. What right has the Church of England to any privileges or advantages above other denomi- nations ? li. Oh!' Sir, your humble servant. I thought we were discussing Catholic emancipation— not whether there should be an established church. If any sjues tiou is to be raised upon that point, let it be brought forward fairly, substantively, and distinctly ;' but 1 cannot consent to its being disposed of by a side- wind, or reached at ina covert manner when people think they are only talking of another subject. By the way, too many of our Senators reason as if we had 110 established church at all, or take for granted that we ought not to have one. However, we are now upon Catholic, emancipation, and must bear in mind these two fundamental principles— that ue hare an established church, and that it must not be endangered. A. But, Mr. Bull, you only look at one side of the question: you ought to consider the state of Ireland. You cannot go back fo the old penal laws : thanks to myself and my brother agitators, things cannot stop where they are: the country is in a dreadful, state: something must be done to tranquillize it:' you must go forward to emancipation. This is the argument,' the grand argument, which has, of late, brought us over so many converts in Parliament. B. I know there are some weak men of that sort: but your argument is suicidal— it destroys itself. A. How so ? 11. Thus :— In order to entitle you to emancipation, you raise discontents which emancipation can never satisfy. The wide and boundless. scene of agitation you have produced must grow out of other objects than the paltry one of getting a few Popish Members into Parliament. Other hopes, other projects must be entertained by the mass of the people: and as the mere grant of emancipation would not satisfy these, I see not how it would be the means of tranquillizing Ireland. A. I assure you panacea. B. You mean, I suppose, in plain English, a cure a cure for all the present disorders. 1 wish yo would explain the operation of this cure. A. Why, you see, it would gratify the ambition of myself and all the other leading agitators, who would get seats in Parliament U. But how is that fo lay the discontents you have raised, on other grounds, iu the breast of the Popish population. A. Why, you do not suppose that we would desert their cause when we get into Parliament? li. 1 do not suppose any such thing, though I know many who think so A. ' Ihey arc mere political drivellers, Mr. Bull. Mr. Bull, it would lie a perfect No, no, we are more staunch to our church and its objects. B. Now you speak frankly. I like this manly tone; you and I may be better agreed in time. Come, tell me plainly w hat your objects, your ulti- mate objects, are. A. Well, you and I are now talking in a friendly way, and I dont care if I tell you what we are driving at. You know 1 can deny it all at another time, when it suits my purpose. 11. Aye, 1 know that is your practice: it wont cost yon much to be honest for once ; so, go on. A. Besides, some of us have often let these things out already; but we see it never puts Members of Parliament on their guard : they go on voting arid . speechifying for us just as before. li. More fools they ! But I am impatient to hear what you would do to tranquillize Ireland if you got into the Legislature. A. I can't pretend to tell you all we would do: our minds are, at present, very much rivetted to the one point of emancipation j but as soon as that was gained, of course we should look forward to others. li Proceed, Sir, I am all impatience. A. First of aH, down with the Established Church in Ireland : away with the tithes: open, or dissolve, the Protestant Corporations: then down with the Established Church in' England, or else establish Popery in Ireland : get our Bishops into the House of Lords: annul the Act of Union. lam not quite clear about Radical Reform ; but whatever conclusion we adopted on these, or any other points, even to the severing the connexion of the two countries and making Ireland independent, we should have them all our own way. II. Sir, you put me on my mettle. I trust and believe there is too much Protestant feeling in the British Parliament to A. Protestant feeling! Ha ! ha ! ha ! Let me into Parliament, and a fig for your Protestant feeling! I tell you we should have it all our own way. B. I know you are dangerous people; but how could this be? A. Why see:— Our late election contests shew, ( though the stupid Liberalists will not open their eyes to their own ruin,) that the landed interest cannot stand a moment when our church chooses to make an effort. How many Catholic Members then do you suppose we could return, at any crisis that might occur? li. Why perhaps most, if not all iu Ireland; but not one in England or Scotland. A What! are there no boroughs accessible ? Is there no persuasion in the powers of the Catholic Rent ? J5. Strange I never thought of that. A. Then there are other ways to bring our influ- ence, our growing influence, to bear iu some quarters even iu England. li. Still we should have a majority. A. A majority of what? Nit of men united as we should be— not of members of your Established Church, first of all, there are ihe Dissenters • B. The Dissenters, Sir, are Protestant Disinters, not Popish Dissenters like you. A. I know very well they are as distant from us as East is from West, in doctrine, and that many of them admire your principles; but, upon the question of an Established Church, their whole character, principles, and constitution are opposed to you : on that point they w ould be ours. li. I am not quite sure that they would make common cause with you even on that point. But what moreJ A. Then there are numbers who, though not Dis- senters, have as little claim to the name of Church- men . many whose religion is liberality; and some whose liberality is infidelity :" there are all the Radi- cals; ail the Whigs;, all the Liberal Tories'! we should have all these. li. 1 tremble at the combination. Go on. A. You know it is the custom in Parliament to treat every thing like zeal for the Established Church, as bigotry, folly, and antiquated prejudice. B. Dont taunt me with it: I have long lamented the fact; but we were talking not of the weakness of the Church iu Parliament, but of your strength. A. Why the weakness of the Church would be our strength. But I have more ou the subject. We should possess a great advantage iu the comparative positions of our two churches. B. How is that? A As Members of Parliament we should have a right to participate in legislating for the Church of England, and there are many acts of legislation by which she could he impaired and shaken, besides a direct attack. On the other hand, you Protestants possess no power of legislating for our church. Were you to presume to touch a single point of that disci- pline by which we are kept together, animated, and rendered formidable to our opponents, we would raise such a clamour and bellowing as would frighten all Christendom. All the Liberals would join iu the outcry. But for your church there is no such ten- derness : its being an Established Church exposes it to every legislative experiment which its enemies may institute. To counteract this exposure, you have hitherto kept us out: but now we are on the point of admission. Poor Church of England! Ha! ha! li. Go on, Mr. Agitator, fill up the measure of your triumph. A. Our greatest source of strength is yet to be mentioned. We might divide and separate upon other questions; but on every question touching the relative interest of our church we should be one compact phalanx. There would be no such union on the other side. This would always place the bulawe in our hands. No matter how small the party is; if it be sufficient to turn the scale, it is the party which possesses power. See also how, by our union, and thus holding the balance on any just measure, we should compel the Minister to court us. What Minister dare set an united body of upwards of one hundred members of the House of Commons at defiance ? Do you think that, under such circum- stances, we should be satisfied with a barren eligibility to oil ice. No, Sir ; we should aspire to high and influential stations. Some of those offices would give us direct and immediate influence in the very bosom of your church by the patronage of church prefer- ments, not excepting the nomination to bishoprics, and thus B. 1 cannot think a Protestant Sovereign would ever admit Papists into his Councils. A. If he refused, woe betide him. At present, white the question is undecided by Parliament, the Sovereign is shielded from any personal rancour; but let the Parliament once grant the measure, and it will no longer stand between the Sovereign and us. Our exclusion from the Cabinet would then be regarded as his own act, and the whole hatred of Popish Ireland would be concentrated upon his per- son. George the Third, good man as he was, was always an object of popular dislike in Ireland, ou account of his known personal aversion to our cause. So was the late Duke of York. 11. Peace to their memories! Long may their opinions he revered in their native land! And now, Sir, 1 sre what we might expect from the tractabiiity of such agitators as could get into Parliament. A. We should attempt nothing but what is per- fectly natural for us. We hate your church— we cannot buthate it. Remember what it has deprived us of. Consider how it is vitally opposed to lis. To cease our hostility to it, would be to cease being- members of the Church of Rome. • B. Very true. And therefore I feel the force of w hat one of our ow n Prelates observed, that " if w e have Popish Legislators, we shall have Popish Laivs : if we have Popish Counsellors, we shall have Popish advice." But you said that, if the leading agitators were admitted into Parliament, Ireland would be quiet- A. And you thought I was serious. Ah! John Bull, I see you are not up to our Irish jokes yet. Why man I was only mocking the language of the Conciliators. B. Then you dont think it would give content to the Roman Catholics? A. How should it? Were ue to become; qujet, other agitators would rise up in our room. Wei huK0 shewn the example, and there are many acute enough to profit by it. Patriotism, I assure you, is a much better trade than it used to be, Besides, if emanci- pation were granted, there would be no lack of other materials for them to work with. 11. I have often wondered how you could raise such excitement on the score of emancipation— a thing tlie people are so little concerned in. You are monstrdus clever fellows to agitate and convulse the whole country about it. A. So we are. I'll teil you how we proceed. In all our speeches we assume, as a foundation, that, because ice have not the liberty of sitting in Pari a- ment, the people are slaves. This is not disputed, and it becomes the fulcrum which Archimedes wanted to move the world. IF people were really slaves, you , PRECAUTION.— A communication from Holyhead know it would be easy to rouse them into savage utates, that orders have been issued to the agent of indignation at their wrongs. Well, it answers just lu's Majesty's Postmaster- General at that place, to fhp S'l rn. i nii, niiM if Jl. o.,- l.^ llaa'A + 1.... Ti... 1 " 1. l.„ ... .... , ., ... ., 1 . the same purpose they believe they are. The Irish are an excitable people, and this gives us great advantages. We talk of chains, fetters, and so forth, and press every possible fftpe and figure into our service: we choose chapels and altars for our ha- rangues, and call to our aid every thing that can lend effect to our appeals. Then, the people have a great many real grievances: their own fury and restlessness deter English capital from our shores: they suffer from absentee landlords and middle- men: they are very poor, and have to pay for two religious systems, your's and their own. It is easy to transfer the burthen from all these things to the want of Catholic emancipation. When it is granted, it will be easy for other agitators to transfer the burthen to something else— to the existence of the Established Church for instance. There the people would feel still more sensibly, because they have a visible inter- est in getting rid of the tithe : at least it would be easy to persuade them that they had. The people have also a great, though blind and superstitious devotion to the interests of their own church, and some undefined expectation that it will one day be raised to the skies. This makes them so much in love with emancipation; but if that failed to exalt Popery, they would be still restless and unsatisfied as long as new agitators thought it worth while- to inflame them. li. You have taught me a lesson. You shall never have emancipation. A. That we shall, Mr. Bull, in spite of your teeth, and very soon too. B. Impossible. Parliament will never grant it. A. Indeed? Why we have already a host of sworn friends; men too deeply committed to abandon us, whatever we may do. And for the rest, we can soon pick enough out of them to create a majority. 11. How so ? A. By agreeing to securities. There are many who are only looking for some contrivance of that sort to silence their qualms ; and they are so sick of the question, that if a plausible seheme is concerted, they will jump at it. 11. Securities? I hate the word. It only serves for self- deception. But what securities do you think would answer the purpose ? A. First of all, manufacture an oath— something to the effect that we will never do any thing to weaken the Church of England. B. Would you keep such an oath ? A. We should be false to our Church if we did. B. Then it would be no security at all. . None whatever. 11. I have alw ays feared so ; for, though you boast that you are now kept out of Parliament only by your regard to oaths, I knew you did not think yourselves bound to keep faith with heretics. A. As to keeping faith with heretics, that is an excuse we never resort to but in extremities. There is another reason why the oath would be 110 security. B. What is that? A. An oath, you know, is an appeal to the Deity ; and its sanction and support are supposed to be a fear of Divine displeasure if one swears falsely : hut, in point of fact, there are other sanctions much more influential with the great body of oath- takers— I mean the fear of present punishment and the disgrace of perjury. Take away these and the fear of God would have little effect. You will often observe people taking an oath, and in the next breath blas- pheming or doing something else, which shews they have no fear of God : yet they arc true to their oath from regard to the other sanctions. Many men now take the oaths against transubstantiation, & c. & c. who think as little of what you call our idolatry as we do ourselves, and are always declaiming against the injustice of the stigma. Their taking the oath is attended with no disgrace in the opinion of society, but our taking it would be so, on account of the present position of our question. This is what restrains lis. But do you invent a new oath by way of com- promise, and 111 be bound to invent a new construc- tion of it. There would be no disgrace in our taking the new oath as there would in our taking the old. You know people pledge their honour and their oath iu a thousand ways strictly contrary to truth, and 110 disgrace follows when the aet is considered a mere matter of form. II. But suppose I make you swear never to do any thing to weaken tbe Church of England,, how would you construe that? A. Some people think it would not weaken but strengthen the Church of England to abolish its con- nexion with the State. It is easy to persuade oueself to what one likes. B. I understand you. Procced to your next security. A. Your government shall be permitted to pay our priests IT. Oh ! you have forsworn that measure. A. True But I was once hot in its favour, and may be again. I shall only be going back to con- sistency. li. Well, let that pass ; but though paying the priests would give us great influence over them, I never liked the measure. A. Give you an influence over them! I thought you had more sense, John. Tell me, if you have the paying of an officer, and I have the appointing of him, who possesses the influence? li Why you, to be sure. But then, though we should not have the direct appointment of your prie- ts or bishops, we should have a veto or some such thing. A. Depend upon it, our Church will never consent to any arrangement that will take the influence of nomination out of her ow n hands. B 1 always thought the measure of paying priests to teach idolatry a wicked one: I now see it to be 110 less weak, l our next security. A. Raise the qualification of voters. 11. Absurd! unless we also turn them into Pro- testants. Have you any other proposal ? A. Yes: that we are not to vote on questions affecting your Church. li. Oh, any one may see the practical folly of that. It is impossible to define what these questions may be. I look upon this scheme as very ridiculous. A. The veriest piece of political quackery ever invented. ' And now Mr. Hull, 1 hope you are pleased with your trip to Ireland. Stay a few days among us, and I will shew you the power of our unrivalled Church— how it unites us together, places us above the government, and makes a cipher of his Majesty's Viceroy. B. There is certainly much to be learned by visiting your country. I thought I understood the Catholic Question before, but I perceive I did not comprehend the half of it. 1 dare say new light would break in upon me every day ; but I must back to England to rouse the Protestant people, and put an end to the reign of the monster Conciliation. Adieu, poor Ireland. I see there is no hope for you but in putting down agitators and straining every nerve to bring over the people to the light and liberty of Pro e9tantism keep a steam packet constantly at Howth, near Dub lin, with the boilers filled, ready to start with despatches for England at a moment's notice. The Severn and another steam- vessel were impressed at Bristol last week, to convey troops to Waterford; and Sir John Byng does not at present permit an officer to quit his regiment, on leave of absence or other- wise. WANTON AND MALICIOCS BURNING AT WALLS- TOWN.— On the night of Thursday the 9tli instant, a large party of insurgents attacked the watchman who was in care of the Glebe House of Wallstown, which is now building in that parish. The party was headed by a man of most respectable appearance. They made diligent search on the person of the watchman, and in his cabin, for arms, and on leaving the Glebe House cautioned the man not to stir out on pain of death. They then went to the farm yard, and set 011 fire 17 stacks of corn; they also set fire to and entirely destroyed the house where the artisans worked, which contained all their work- ing implements, with all the timber worked up for that building. Only that evening the last of the tithe had been conveyed into the yard, one load of which had been left on the cart, and the entire was consumed to ashes. All the surrounding country was thrown into the greatest alarm from the number of shots firing in all directions. Scarcely a night passes that those nightly marauders do not visit the different farmers in the neighbourhood, cautioning them not to pay their tithes, and extorting money for the purpose, as they say, of purchasing powder and ball. In the previous week, a farm house, offices, and corn, the property of Ctutterbuck Crone, Esq. of Doneraile, were entirely consumed by a party of incendiaries.— Cork Advertiser. On Monday night, about ten o'clock, the inhabit- ants of Huntingdon- street, Kingsland- road, were thrown into a considerable state of alarm, in consequence of a fire having been discovered in the house of Mr. Ball, working glass- cutter. The anxiety of the inhabitants was further increased when they found the fire bad originated in a room where there were three children in bed, with the room- door locked, the father and mother being from home. It appeared that after Mrs. Ball had put the three children to bed ( the eldest, a fine girl, eight years of age, the others two boys, five and three years old), she and her husband went out to see some friends, leaving in the room a rushlight burning in a basin of water. A young man, named Lee, an apprentice, was also left in the lower part of the bouse. It is supposed that one of the children must have disturbed the candle so as to set fire to the curtains. The alarm being given, a man named Verety, a brass- founder, residing opposite, leaped from his bed, and only putting 011 his trowsers, ran across the street, and, finding the back door open, lie courageously ran up stairs to the room where the fire was, and found the door open. Although nearly suffocated, he ran to the bed, . and took the two boys in his arms, and in returning the door closed upon him. He was then obliged to lay the eldest boy on the floor ( which was then burning) until he opened the door, and in that state, handed them to another person, outside. He also endeavoured to get the girl, but could not find her. Before the arrival of the engines, the fire increased with great fury, until the roof fell in ; and after the fire had decreased, the remains of the girl were found in a corner of the room, burnt to a cinder. Very little hopes are entertained AWFUL EVENT.— On Sunday last, the 5th inst. while the Rev. Sir F. L. BIosse, Bart, was performing Divine Service in the parish church of Kilcoleman, Clareraorris, in the county of Mayo, a dreadful tempest, accompanied with rain and lightning, came on. The beautiful spire of this lately erected church, which was only consecrated 011 the 1st of August last, attracted the electric fluid, and was immediately rent to atoms. Some of the stone fell upon the roof, which, co operating with the light- ning, caused it to give way, but so fell upon the pews that, through Divine mercy, only one female lost her life on the occasion. The life of another woman is, alas! despaired of. Two soldiers and two police- men have been dangerously wounded, and many others have suffered from bruises.— Dublin Evening Mail. TRAIT OF GOOD SOCIETY.-- " I have heard that the distinguishing trait of people accustomed to good society is u calm, imperturbable quiet, which pervades all their actions and habits, from the greatest to the least; ( hey cat in quiet, move in quiet, live in quiet, and lose their wife or even their money in quiet; while low persons cannot lake up either a spoon or an affront without making such an amazing noise about it."— Pclham. LIBERAL OPINIONS— Sir Walter Scott, in his " Life ofNapoleon," describes the causes that led to the French revolution, and enumerates amongst them one which is not unworthy the atteutiou of our fellow- countrymen :—" Men of rank," says he, " considered liberal principles as the fashion of the day, and embraced them as the readiest mode of showing that they were above vulgar prejudices. I11 short, they adopted political opinions as they put on round hats and jockey coats, merely because they were current in good society." DEFORMITY OF BODY.— Deformities and imper- fections of our bodies, as lamenesse, crookeduessc, deafnesse, bliudnesse,- be they innate or accidental, torture niafiy men: yet this may comfort them, that those imperfections of the body do not a whit blemish the soul, or hinder the Operations of it, but rather help and much increase it. Seldome, saith Plutarch, honesty and beauty dwell together. How many deformed Princes, Kings, Emperours, could I reckon up, philosophers, orators? Hannibal had one eye, Appius Claudius, Timoleon, blinde, Mul- easses King of Tunis, Joliu King of Bohemia, and Tiresias the prophet. The night hath his pleasure ; and, for the losse of that one, sense, such men are commonly recompensed in the rest. Homer was blind; yet who made more accurate, lively, or better descriptions with both his eyes? Democri- tus was blinde; yet, as Laertius writes of him, he saw more than all Greece besides : as Plato con- cludes, when our bodily eyes are at worst, gene- rally the eyes of otlr soul see best. Some divines mid some philosophers have evirated themselves, and put out their eyes voluntarily, the better to contemplate. Angelus Politianus had a tetter in his nose, fulsome in company; yet 110 man so eloquent and pleasing in his workes. / fisope was crooked ; Socrates purblind, long- legged, hairy ; Democritus withered; Seneca lean and harsh, ugly to behold; yet show me so many flourishing wits, such divine spirits: Horace, a little, blear- eyed, contemptible fellow ; yet who so sententious and wise?

CONSECRATION OF ST. MARY'S BURIAL GROUND, GLOUCESTER.— On Sunday last, the ground which has been recently added to the churchyard of St Mary de Lode, in this city, was consecrated by the Lord Bishop of the Diocese. After the morning service, and prior to the performance of this interesting ceremony, his Lordship delivered an impressive and eloquent discourse, from the following appropriate text, Gen. xxiii. 3, 4- " And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake unto the sons of Hcth, mj/ ing, I am a stranger and a sojourner with you; qire vie a possession of a burying- plaee with yon, that' 1 mat/ bury my dead out of mil sight." The portion of ground which was consecrated, is endeared to the recollection of every true Protestant, in consequence of its having been the spot on which John Hooper, Bishop of Gloucester, suffered martyr- dom in the days of Queen Mary, and to whose memory a handsome monument has recently been erected. This melancholy event was most feelingly alluded to in ( lie sermon, by the talented successor of this persecuted Prelate, who, while lie ably advocated the tenets of the Church of England, expressed himself in the true spirit of Christianity, towards all whom the doctrines of error had misled into the commission of those crimes which had polluted the pages of English history. A collection was made after the service to defray the expense of the recent improvements in St. Mary's Church and Churchyard, and a liberal sum was contributed by the numerous and i- espeetable congregation who witnessed the ceremony. Indian Empire On Monday last the Mayor of Liverpool received a letter, informing him that Mrs. Ellen Read, the wife of Mr. Read, organ- builder, of this town, who had been buried about a fortnight previously, had died in child- bed in consequence of the improper manner iu which the medical man who had attended her had treated her. The Mayor ordered the body of the deceased to be disinterred and examined by several medical gentlemen. A coroner's inquest was held 011 the body on Tuesday, and as the medical men examined gave it as their decided opinion that the improper employment of instruments by the medical man had occasioned the death of the deceased, the jury, after an attentive consideration of the case, returned a verdict of " Manslaughter" against Mr. Bernard Scanlon, the assistant of Mr. Kelly, of this town, who was immediately taken into custody upon the coroner's warrant, and committed for trial at the next Lancaster assizes.— Liverpool Paper. Mr Hugh Achison, gardener to Dunbar Barton, Esq. of Rocheston, having planted three whole pota- toes last spring, turned them out of the ground 011 Friday last, when lie ascertained that they produced the almost incredible weight of three stone twelve pounds! Twelve of the largest potatoes weighed one stone.— Ctonmel Advertiser. A steam. vessel, the Atlas, carrying three engines, each of 100 horse power, has been recently launched at Rotterdam. She is 236 feet long, 33 feet beam, 30 feet deep, and draws 17J feet w ater, without her stores. A successful trial was made of this vessel on the 21st instant. She is to proceed early in the spring to Bala via, with Dutch t roops and passengers. The engines were manufactured by Messrs. Cockrell and Co. of Liege.— Hampshire Telegraph. On Tuesday last, a Polish Jew, of the name of Harfz, who has for some time past attended different places of Christian worship in this neighbourhood, was baptized by the Vicar, at St. Nicholas' Church, in this tow n, by the name of John Abraham Tyne Mercury. The Penang Register of April 2, contains the fol- lowing rather melancholy accounts from the Dutch settlements in Sumatra :— " We gather the following information from private communications received by the Zephyr.— The Dutch Commandant of Ayer Banggi, 011 the west coast of Sumatra ( which was ceded at the same time as Bencoolcn) has been murdered by his own soldiers, who, after destroying the fort and spiking the guns, absconded with the whole of the public treasure, amounting to about GOOO rupees, to Trumon, where, it is reported, they now are under the protection of the Rajah. " It is said that piracy is increasing to a most alarming degree on. the west coast, the principal deperadoes being the old Malay settlers at the Pepper Ports. Several Chuliahs have felt compelled to sacri- fice their goods at any price rather than proceed farther, knowing that the pirates had obtained intelli- gence of their intentions to move onwards, and were way- laying them. " Very recent accounts from that once flourishing settlement Bencoolcn are of a most distressing nature They state that all descriptions of inhabitants are daily leaving the town and environs, and in all pro- bability they will soon be entirely deserted. There is not a semblance of employment for the working part of the community, and immoveable property is almost valueless; for instance, a very exteiisive and substan- tial range of buildings, formerly appropriated as hospitals, which cost the lion. East India Company 20,000 dollars, was sold by auction, a short time since, by the Dutch authorities, for 300 dollars ! The southern dependencies of Bencoolen, embracing 150 miles of sea coast, and estimated to contain 60,000 souls, are said to be in a still more miserable con dition; the Dutch possess neither power nor influ ence sufficient to keep the native population in check. The consequences are— the utmost confusion, slavery, and murders of the worst description— tribe arrayed against tribe, and whole villages laid waste!" the utility of what you saw, know then," continued he, ( at the same time giving a crack with his whip, which made the poor scared creature ready to fly through the manger,) that it was to collect his scattered spirits together, in case a purchaser should drop in." " A fig for the humanity of the world!" said I; " and is it thus every poor devil of a horse that unfortunately falls into thy hands is to be whipped out of its skin, merely for the sake of thy advantage?" upon which he left the stable. The horse looked behind him the moment he heard his master quit the stable. On walking up, in order to cherish him, " I observed the tears rolling down his face; which operated so strongly on my affections, that I declared I would never more see an animal beaten unjustly, without punishing the offender." Cotton grows in the forests of the torrid regions of Africa and America ou tuIt thorny trees; in India on a lofty shrub; and ill Malta and the Islands of the Archipelago on an herbaceous plaut. " In Guzerat," as is related in Forties's Oriental Memoirs, " the rice and cotton fields are both planted at the commencement of the rainy season in June. The former is sown iu furrows, auJ reaped in about three mouths; the cotton- shrub, which grows to the height of three or four feet, and in verdure resembles the currant bush, requires a longer time to bring its delicate produce to per- fection. These shrubs, planted between the rows of rice, neither impede its growth nor prevent its being reaped. Soon after the rice harvest is over they put forth a beautiful yellow flower, with a crimson eye iu each petal; this is succeeded by a green pod, filled with a white stringy pulp ; tho pod turns brown and hard as it ripens, and then separates into two or three divisions, containing the cotton. A luxurious field, exhibiting at the same time the expanding blossom, the bursting capsule, and the Bnowy flakes of ripe cotton, is one of the most beautful objects in the agriculture of Hindustan. Herodotus says the Indians, in his time, possessed a kind of plant, which, instead of fruit, produced wool of a finer and better quality than that of sheep, of which the natives made their clothes; this plant was, no doubt, tbe same as the ni . dern cotton of India."
