THE MORNING JOURNAL, BEING A Continuation of ihe New Times. TO THE PUBLIC. ACHANGE having taken place in the manage- ment and proprietorship of the New Times, which will in future be conducted under tbe title of TIIE MORNING JOURNAL, it is considered necessary to state tbe causes which have led to this change, and the grounds on which the present proprietors solicit a continuance aud an extension of public support. The Neto Times was established in 1815, at a period of extraordinary excitement, and the title under which it appeared was considered to be well calculated to represent the views and opinions of its'projectors. Whether the name was au inva- sion of the rights of an able and popular contem- porary, the present proprietors neither affirm nor deny. They are not bound by the acts, and there- fore cannot be required to explain or defend the motives, of their predecessors; but having 110 wish to bear even the imputation of interfering with the rights of others, they, so far as the title is involved, hereby spontaneously and uncondi- tionally renounce it. THE MORNING JOURNAL will continue to advocate, as the New Times has done under the present management, all the leading- and important interests of the Country. The principles to which its columns will be devoted are those which, un- fortunately for the agricultural, the manufacturing, and the commercial classes, of tbe United kingdom, have, within the last few years, been erroneously understood, and too rashly abandoned. Since 1819, but especially since 1822, the measures pursued by his Mujesty's Ministers, have been productive of much embarrassment and distress. A mania for legislation — an inordinate love of change — a fondness for rash and reckless innova- tion, have prevailed to such a degree, that con- vulsion, panic, ruin, and misery, have beeu the consequences. Public credit has been shaken to its base; distrust, uncertainty, and suspicion have pervaded the nation ; one interest has beeu arrayed against another; the protective fences of trade have been demolished ; our artisans and labourers have been exposed to unequal and injurious foreign competition ; and the confidence that was wont to be reposed in the laws and in the Govern- ment has been shaken and nearly destroyed. These changes still press heavily on all classes Our mercantile marine, especially that employed ill foreign commerce, is on the decline; while that of the rest of Europe and the United States of America is increasing. The value of it has dimi- nished more than fifty per cent, while the ships of foreign nations crowd our harbours. The silk trade is struggling with insuperable difficulties, aud is threatened with more. The enrrency of the country is ill a state of lamentable derange ment ; and those who controul it, and who hold their hands the available capital of the nation, are restrained in their employment of that eapital by acts of the Legislature, founded on principles acknowledged to be erroneous. The woolgrowers are suffering severe distress from the encourage nieut given lo foreign wools ; and while even the hope of relief is denied them, they foresee only fresh embarrassments in the exclusion of British coarse woollens from the markets of the United States. The glove trade is almost completely annihilated. The Dublin mixed silk trade entirely destroyed. The miners and iron- smelters are at present pursuing au unprofitable speculation l'olly and fanaticism have reduced to despair the planters and proprietors of the West Indies ; aiid yet, while they are smarting under unmerited injuries, crushed to the earth by exorbitant im posts, and loaded with calumnies and insults, a farther and more fatal blow has been struck their interests by the law permitting the infro duetion into this country of foreign colonial pro duce, and the encouragement thereby given to tbe slave trade. In our political affairs abroad — by the inconsi- derate measures of one Administration, and the imbecile measures of another— we are also in- volved in many perplexities. There is a combin- ation of foreign interests secretly arrayed against British policy and British influence. We are on the threshold of a terrible and sanguinary war. The efforts now making by Russia to over- run and dismember Turkey, and thereby obtain a com- manding station in the Mediterranean— her fla- grant violation of engagements— are not only a reproach to England, but, if these efforts be suc- cessful, will materially affect our commercial inter- ests. By making ourselves a party to the treaty of thetith July, we have evidently promoted the ambitious views of the Russian Government. We liove not benefitted Greece — Russia is not con- ciliated— the trade of Turkey is lost. The United States of America have concluded a treaty with the Porte, by which they gain many advantages, and are enabled to carry on a lucrative trade to our injury. By a secret treaty conditionally con- cluded with Spain, France, in the event of a war with England, is to receive the Balearic Isles as the price of her invasion of the Spanish territory aud her evacuation of Cadiz ; while we have only been awarded the execrations of the Portuguese for our interference in the domestic affairs of that kingdom. We do, indeed, hold in leash all the discontented spirits of the age, but it is only to let them loose to prey upon ourselves. We have been orer- reached by Prussia in our famous treaties of reciprocity, she retaining, contrary to the spirit of the treaty, the exclusive monopoly of her valuable salt trade ; while, in addition to this, the transit duties of the Rhine have'been increased against our goods and colonial produce. Our trade jvith Spain is almost entirely a contraband one; the French enjoy the monopoly. Russia has for several years been increasing the duties on our manufactures, and yet we make no retaliation. By the American commissioners we have been held at parley in Canada for twelve years, keeping open for the first moment of embarrassment an eligible ground of quarrel; and the Congress of Washington has given us another proof of its patriotism by excluding our manufactures by a tariff, which its members, at their convivial meet- ings, style the third declaration of independence. While we thus struggle with difficulties at home, and a'e daily becoming more involved abroad, the public peace of Ireland is in a state of fearful insecurity. A noisy, insolent, turbulent faction have been cherished and protected in that portion of the empire, till their conduct has become un- bearable, and till they have inflamed the wildest passions of the peasantry, and excited them to a slate verging 011 rebellion. That part of the population which are most attached to the institu- tions of England have been discountenanced ; their motives maligned, their loyalty questioned, and their very toasts suspected ; while the Catholic priesthood, the Catholic incendiaries, the O'Con- nels, the Shiels, the Lawlesses, have been permit- ted to insult the whole Protestant population in their harangues, beard the Government at their assemblies, display every insulting badge, and appear in every insulting costume, with impunity. Our liberality towards Ireland has been marked with injustice ; our avowed impartiality is an out- rage upon law and good faith; and now we are receiving the bitter and the humiliating reward. By these principles, and by this feeble System, the loyal subjects of the King have been soured and alienated, and the disaffected roused to fury. By these errors — by this wide and deplorable departure from sound constitutional and commercial policy— the peace of the country is disturbed, its trade greatly injured, its revenue falling to decay — many millions of property have been sacrificed — many thousands of once opulent families have bceu reduced to comparative destitution — and many tens of thousands of industrious labourers converted into poachers and paupers. Ireland is on the eve, if not actually in a slate, of rebellion. The Catholic rebels who are now in arms against England, and who thirst for the blood of their Protestant countrymen, have been instigated to these acts by men who now deem themselves secure. The Irish Government has for several years witnessed the machinations of these men with blind and fatal indifference ; the fficers of the Crown have been asleep; and now that the impending danger calls for decided mea- sures, the poor peasantry are to be made the victims, while the arch traitors are to escape. The Protestant institutions of our country have been so furious ly assailed that they already totter; and now that those who revere them attempt to ally in their defence, their labours, their resolu- ions, their bold and loyal spirit, are discounte- nanced by the Government. But the Minister must yield to the majesty of public opinion. The spirit that now animates every Protestant bosom will, irt spite of conciliation, crush Popery, and sweep away from the foot of the Throne whatever Ministry may support it. The struggle may be protracted — it may be disastrous to both parties— it may even be sanguinary— but the result cannot be doubtful. To the system which has wrought these evils, which has entailed upon us so much calamity, we shall ever be opposed; till it be entirely abandoned it shall be the object of our uneeasiug hostility. In exposing the effects of it — iu warning those who, sooner or later, will be the victims of it— iu arousing the country to a sense of its peril, and the guardians of the Crown fo a sense of their duty— we shall neither be influenced by personal fears nor party feelings We belong to no party we have no interests to serve but those of our country, 110 motive to Sway us but honest conviction and a sense of jffstiee. We therefore confidently rely on, the support of all the leading interests of the nation, and all the independent and intelligent classes of our countrymen. Our columns will be open to discussion from whatever quarter it may proceed ; every subject will be fairly and dis- passionately treated;- every communication re- spected ; and no eSpense, no industry, spared to render THE MORNING JOURNAL one of the most interesting, most instructive, and most independent newspapers of the metropolis. We shall support every useful measure of the Government, and oppose none but from the purest of motives. In the illustrious nobleman now at the head of his Majesty's Government we repose great confidence; but we know he is trammelled in his measures by pledges, fettered by unconstitutional treaties, bound to a bad system by the honour of the country, besieged daily by the appeals of the selfish, and annoy » d hourly by the remonstrances of the mercenary, the selfish, and the factious. We believe him to be most anxious to extricate, his country from her almost overwhelming diffi- culties ; how far be may Succeed will depend more upon the feelings of the nation than upon his own individual exertions. Him we will support to the full extent of our humble abilities, aud to the utmost limits of our conviction. We shall be as just to the Minister as we are true and loyal to the King ; but we shall, nevertheless, condemn every bad measure, regardless of the name, the rank, or the character of its patron. ( 11 announcing these changes— in declaring these principles— we have only to add, that in all the other departments of a morning paper, we' have made arrangements to secure the earliest domestic information and the latest foreign intelli- gence. We have agents iu every quarter of the world. Of our reporting establishment it is un- necessary to speak — it has long beeu among the best, if not the very best, in the empire— it will continue to be so. The moral character of the paper has ever been above reproach— it shall not deteriorate in our hands. Nothing is admitted to our columns to pander to debased tastes — nothing that the most delicate may not peruse without pain and without a blush. In light literature and the news of the day we are provided with numerous and able contributors. The columns of THE MORNING JOURNAL, it will be seen, are enlarged, and the printing will continue to be, as it is at present, the best of all the London newspapers.

The sorts mostly all'efcted are American, upon which an improvement of about one farthing per pound has taken place, or from four to five per cent, on the value. A slight improvement, is & ls( j found in the prices of cop yarns for the home consumption, though scarcely amounting to the diP> feretice in the raw material. We wish we could add that manufactured goods participated in this advance of prices; hut hitherto they have rather had a tendency to decline in the face of these opera- tions. Tiie chief and perhaps only cause of the rise in the article of raw cotton is the excessive consumption at the present time, speculation having less to do with the advance than in any former years. And as the supply tYom America is avowedly st* much short of fast year ( say 170,000 bng< f in the present time), it will depend materially upon this year's crop being abundant or otherwise, whether we are to continue to have cotton at a low price— American qualities form- ing nearly thive- fourths of the consumption erf this Country. ? t must not be overlooked also, that an increasing proportion of American cottons are finding their way to the continental markets, thereby dimi- nishing the supply to tiie united kingdoms. The demand for yarns for the export tfade has been must extensive this season, and proves the continual increase of manufacturing all over the continent, to the great detriment of the hand- loom of our own country, which must shortly succumb to the combined competition of machinery at home and foreign industry. That the latter must ultimately give way to tiie steam- loom is probable; yet much depends upon the facilities which may yet be given to our foreign commerce. We fear, however, with regard to the hand- loom of our own country,. that it is likely to experience a return of a similar winter to 1825- 6, in low wages and scarcity of work. In the present aspect of commercial affairs we see nothing encouraging. On the contrary, all is dark ; and turn we to any quarter of the globe, we find either opposition or competition reigning in their full sway. The wars in tlic Levant— the Tariff in America— the Miguelite usurpation— Translantic dis- sensions— blockades and piracies— advancing prices of provisions at home— all have a direct tendency to restrict and confine the operations of merchant and manufacturer, and, consequently, to throw an increas- ing weight of labour upon a market already overdone w ith the claims of its own population. The Revenue, it is true, is stated to have increased for the last uarter: this is, however, no infallible test of the welfare of the country at large; Especially as the complexity of the system of accounts allows only of comparative inference. Under this view of the state of things, we do not, we confess, entertain any sanguine expectations in favour of the manufacturing interest of our own country. We hope, however, that under any chemnsfanees we shall not see a return to that fictitious currency which was so fatal only two or three years back, and to which we adverted in a late number of the Chronicle.

A large concourse of people assembled yesterday afternoon, in Castle Gardens, to witness the ascent iif Mr. Robertson, and many thousands were of course upon the battery. The day was uncommonly beau- tiful, the wind blowing moderately from the north. The process of inflating the balloon was not com- pleted until six o'clock, when Mr. R. entered the car, which was handsomely decorated for tbe occa- sion. His attendants having let go tbe cords, the balloon rose gracefully to the height of upwards of a hundred feet before the wind had floated it beyond the circumference of the Castle walls. Mr. Robertson stood erect in tiie car, flourishing the banners in his hands, and facing and bowing to the spectators. Unfortunately the balloon had been let off directdy to the windward of the flag- staff, with which it came violently in contact, in consequence of which the netting not only became entangled with the staff, but the car was turned nearly upside down. Mr. Robertson having his back to the flag- staff, had not time to prevent this collision, which he might otherwise have done with a pole. He had expressed a wish before that ( lie staff might be taken down. In this perilous situation, with his head hanging down, and his feet uppermost in the car, clinging by the frail netting which attached it to the balloon, be remained at the height of nc- arlv a hundred feet from the ground, vibrating iu every direction, while a general shudder rail through the crowd. At this instant a large rent was made in the balloon, and he gradually descended about fifteen feet. The spectators cried out to him to take bold of the halyard of the flag- staff. Though nearly black in the face, from his position, Mr. Robertson was per- fectly collected. At this moment a man climbed the rope for his relief, amid the cheers of the spectators, but was unable to ascend nearer than within some fifteen feet of Mr. R. when his strength failed, and he was obliged to descend. The anxiety of the spectators was now increased fo intensity, and hut little hope was entertained of his rescue, and a shudder ran over the whole body of spectators. We heard not a shriek, but many of the ladies wrere in tears of silent agony. It was hardly supposed possible that his physical power could longer sustain him. Still he helil o: i sometimes, apparently, by his feet, and sometimes bv one hand, grasping at any and every thing with the other. At length he caught the rope, and by a powerful effort, and one of the most dexterous movements that we ever beheld, he cleared himself from the car, and the entanglement of the cords, and was seeu suspended by one hand. A burst of applause cheered him for an instant, am! until he caught the rope w ith bis other hand, when he descended forty or fifty feet with great velocity, and fell the remainder of the distance, but was caught by the people below. He was soon upon his feet, and appeared upon the terrace of the garden, where he was received by repeated antl heartv cheers'. After receiving the congratulations of his friends the intrepid aeronaut retired to a private apartment where his hands, which had been blistered, and some- what excoriated by tbe cords and the rope in his fall were dressed. He also lost one of his front teetlt, bv having seized a cord in his mouth as he threw himself from the car. He was not otherwise injured, and we left him last evening in a cheerful mood. During- the whole of this trying and fearful scene bis presence of mind did not forsake him for a: i instant. It is computed that 2,000 spectators were in the Gardens, and 15,000 without. The balloon was taken down before dark, but it is ruined. The liberal, papers, having already failed ire at least twenty inventions of a similar nature, are now manufacturing statements for Lord GOrt and the Marquis Camden, as to the designs of Government respecting the Roman Catholic Question—- Lord Gn- t and the Noble Marquis, in their recent speeelies, merely alluded to the report of Government intending to bring forward some measure !— and iu ail pro- bability this report was originally manufactured hy the same parties who are now making use of the observations of those Noblemen who noticed it.— We should like to k; IOW the names of those parties to whom the Duke of Wellington communicates his intentions on questions of importance !

The morally degraded and miserable condition of the Heathen parts of the world formed the subject of sincere commiseration— the necessity and importance of missionary exertions were illus- trated— powerful appeals were made both to the understanding and the heart— and the success of the Society, whose claims were more immediately urged, and tliat of similar Societies, was a theme of grateful acknowledgment to Almighty God.— In evidence, < hat even a barbarous people, are not wanting in ingenuity and skill, a handsome mantle was exhibited, curiously wrought, without the aid of a loom, by the inhabitant-- of New Zealand. A specimen was also produced « f the objects of religious worship.*—' Though the business of the meeting unavoidably o. cupied more than three hours, the liveliest interest was main- tained, and the contributions attested the prevalence of generous sensibility.

HUNDRED OF MAELOR. On Saturday last, November 1st, at a very numerous Meeting of the Inhabitants of the Hundred of Maelor, Flintshire, the following Address was unanimously voted to His Majesty, on the subject of the Roman Catholic claims. It was* m' 6ved by the Hon. Lloyd Kenyon, and seconded by Sir Richard Pulcston, Bart. To the Kim/ s most excellent' Majesty. We, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the undersigned Gentlemen', Clergy, Magistrates, Deputy Lieutenants, and Inhabitants of tlie Hundred of Maelor, Flintshire, beg to approach your Majesty with our humble Address at the present crisis, immi- nently dangerous to the Protestant Constitution of the Empire. We confide, Sir£, implicitly on ybiir Ma- jesty's conscientious atid constitutional attachment to the sacred principles of Protestantism, to support which your Majesty's Royal House, by an alteration iu the line of hereditary succession, was called to the Throue of thene Realms. Such principles we have always considered to be inseparably connected with the Civil and Religious Liberties of " the country, and hound up in strictest union with the title* of your Royal House, li U our humble petition, therefore, lo your Majesty, that no concessions be made to the Roman Catholics; and that no further power may be granted to them by which the integrity of our Pro- testant Constitution may be impaired. We specially preSiume to approach your Majesty at this time, because'we are satisfied that there never has been a period when the Roman Catholics of Ireland have shewn themselve's to be more disposed by means of threats and intimidation to" force their unwarrantable claims on Parliament; and it is therefore that with all dutiful loyally we express our humble but con iidept hopes, that your Majesty will maintain to your loyal subjects the blessings of our glorious Constitution iu Church and State, by the maintenance of a Pro- testant Parliament, Protestant Judges, and a Protest- ant ( iovernmeut. Petitions were likewise signed to both Houses of Parliament, There were present, the Hon. Mr. Kenyon, Sir Richard Pulcston, F. R. Price, Esq. Rev. I) r. Wynne, Rev. John Hantner, Col. Fletcher, Rev. G. Robson, Edward Dymock, Esq. Major Fletcher, arid the entire resident Gentry of the Hundred, together with a large assembly of Freeholders and Inhabitants, who are all adverse to any concessions. At a numerous Bench of Cheshire Magistrates assembled at the late Quarter Sessions held at ktints- ford, a decided- opinion was expressed, that it would he extremely desirable for the county of Chester to be included in the circuits of the Judges of West- minster Hall, provided that such art angenicrit would not interfere, in other respects, with the constitution of the Palatine Courts, which have some advantages' of importance to the county.— At Swansea Sessions, a memorial was also agreed to, and signed by twenty- five magistrates of the county of Glamorgan, praying " the abolition of the provincial judicature of Wales; and a participation in the benefits derived from the authority of English Judges."

To the Editor of the Salopian JoxfrnaJ. Sir, There aie truly times and seasons iii which circum- stances of apparently trifliirg moment on other occa- sions are capable of raising more than ordinary attention in the mind,— their simplicity probably » n some measure possessing- the unseen, though feeling j o'wer, of adding fiRe a Ifving dream an imaginative calmness and tranquillity to the inmost soul. Thai the concord of sweet sounds has a strong tendency to convey the most delightful associations to the mind, will he,* perhaps, doubted by few, ami that the tuneful notes of bells, however simple in their melody, have a similar tendency, is generally be- lieved ; in fact, the p. ige of history has informed us. that even lionuftarit felt their influence. In proof thereof, he is said lo have asserted, " that whilst walk- ing iu the evening, during the general silence of nature, the sound of the church lu ll of Ruel fell. on my ear and lenewed all the impressions of my youth." Such were the impressions I felt when passing over the English Bridge, ou Thursday last, whilst the varying and soul subduing melody of St. Mary's hells were pealing iu sweetest numbers from the heaven- ward pointed spiie— 44 Sweet Evening Bells '." oft have I listened to iheir mellow cadences floating on the gale, in harmony the most delightful : oft has tlieir responsive peal pierced my hca « t — telling iudeed, " Of friends and times long winged away, Ami blissful hopes harmonious with the day." I must confess, however, that on ihe preseut occa- sion | was more than ordinary attracted by tljc peculiar sweetness of the trebles^ which had long been con mdered as wanting more spirit, in consequence of the music of their small though brazen throats being overpowered by ihe more powerful voices of their majority. They posse.- sed, however, on the present occasion a very difterenl and 10 me surprising effect.— their sTirill though beautiful notes appearing lo warble amongst their melodious brethren of the steeple with inci eased power,- and to appear iii reality as belonging to au entire family.* 1 have subsequently been informed that this im- provement arises from having the three lesser bells raised about one foot, above the others, and the two new ones noticed in. ihe note imperially altered iu their hanging and 4< ironjoiigues ;" so that a more effective blow might be obtained on lite hell, « iid the assertion there contained made of none effect. It is but just lo mention tbaff these improvements have been accomplished by Mr. Thomas Dawsou, civil engineer, lo whoirt the parish of St. Mary is under much obligation, for the time he has devoted and ihe unwearied diligence manifested in the con- ducting of them,—- as well a* for the improvement lately effected in the management of the. chiures, wibich were, J believe, originally set by him in the [ year 1823, without any charge on the parish' fuiidsyssesub- scription heiug opened for the machinery^ ixc'. In pro. f of their excellence, I cannot refrain- froin slating, without Ihe least idea of flattering the in point of harmony and correctness, their etjjhal is pot to be found in the metropolis, and 1 liave Veks'ou to think are not excelled by any in Eug- htnd. ; Mi: J 1 am further convinced that the judicious Repairs now effected on the frame- work in the cainpanile. w ill prove of material advantage ; inasmuch as thcseeiirity of the spire will he considerably promoted thereby. It would he well if other parishes, where necessary, would adopt a similar precaution, which tbe sequel will presently unfold f It is, Mr Editor, perhaps, still iu the recollection of many of your readers, that St. Mary's bells, which are justly considered to be the finest in the kingdom, were prevented about seven years ago from giving full power to their harmony, in consequence of a re markable vibration being manifest ot ihe tower and spire when ringing ; thus matters continued for up. wards of a year, when the circumstance attracted the attention of Mr. Dawson, who, iti the exercise of his - office as churchwarden, investigated the circumstihiee, and soon discovered that the vibration did not proceed so much from ihe motion of the hells as from the un. steadiness of the frame which contained them, ( origin- ating iu several years' neglect and want of looking after on the part of the preceding ollicers,) and which, : in one part, from? its loose st;\$ e, struck against the wall of the tower. This, however, was soon remedied vby a few wedges, the cost of a few shillings, being- placed so as to'steady the frame. These fine belfW, after a fourteen mouths' silence, were again put in motion, and hHv> ever since performed their usual portiori' of ringing, whilst the ^ roundles* surmises as to the stability of the spire and its appendages quickly vanished, like " The wild r^ metr. ljrarice of a morning dream." Whilst on the subject, it may be remarked, that bells were the objects of much" superstition by our forefathers in the dark a^ es, being considered to possess many mysteries, in which doubt lets s more was intended than the souncTwhich dwelt upon the ear; and though they had no perfect |/ eals' beyond three, four, and five, yet they are said to have possessed many l » ells of large size, which were inricli valued for their depth of tone ; and whilst the dull monotony of their melancholy music was flung wide 44 with sullen roar," the gloomy voice of speaking- spirits frOiu the dark and hollow'sepuieiVre might naturally. b? con- jured in the invagination, instead of the lively excite- ments produced by a well regulated set of chang- es. , Shrewsbury possessing, aS it really does, some of the finest peals of bells in the kingdom, has'beeh long celebrated for bell- ringing, although not so much iu the present day as it was formerly ; what this iAay be attributed to is better known to those amateurs who profess the art. it..!

It may seeiw superfluous* thus to express a wish to disown this offender; but when it is considered that a public slanderer recently vilified the inhabitants of this town and its vicinity, by stating that persons ' dare not go near Drayton, for fear of being murdered,' it will not appear obtrusive in my thus being anxious to prevent any ( even the least) stigma being a 1 fixed to our character. If the malicious scribbler, who lias dared to traduce the inhabitants of this town and its neighbourhood by the assertion to which I have alluded, is not com- pletely callous to every feeling of sha) fne, he will ( as he ought to have done some weeks immediately make a public and ample apology for his Atrocious and most scandalously false accusation1- an accusation which, being calculated to insult deeply the feelings of a- large body of most respectable residents to destroy the character of a great number of hard- working, industrious, and exemplary individuals— — and to take away the means of livelihood of many persons who manufacture a staple commodity of the place— w ill by them never be forgotten, nor can it ever be excused.

The Enrl of WincKHxen. presided , and in presiding over s. i'jh a meeting, filled a station of which tiny monarch in Europe might be proud, but which tin matt ever could occupy niore worthily or more efficiently.— His iJordship, Sir Edward KiuitJihnll,' Mr. Gy'pp's, Mr. Plumtree, and several other members spoke at length. Their speeches embodied the noble senti- ments of Englishmen, in that style of correct, strong, aud uiiufFected eloquence which is the native lan- guage of free and honest men. The i- peakers generally disclaimed, with earnestness aud truth, any wish to dictate to the Kinir's • j- oveniment.. This was due to ( he Duke of Wellington's adiiiinis'ration, but no't due, in ( he slavish sense of '.. on! Camden and his new allies, the Whigs, and Radicals, aud Papists, who have been for thirty years shouting the supremacy of" public opinion," and lh « ". spirit of the age," above all constituted authorities, and all established institutions. The ground on which the Protestants of England, deny, and with . truth deny, any wish to di tate to the government is, that they do not distrust it— a ground far more honour- able to both than that which the ll'higs, and Liberals, and Papists, in shameless and disgusting contradiction to their own preaching and practice for rftore than a quarter of a century, now allege, viz : That it is wrong to attempt by associations or popular demonstrations t'o controul a ministry; and that it is the rigbt of a cabinet, if it can command a it) ijority in purli imet!!,' to make what changes ill the constitution shall please it, however hateful or alarming such change may be to the great majority ot'the nation. No, the position of neutrality which the Brunswick clubs, and the Protestants of Rug- laud,' have taken with respect to the yoverumetit, is mutually and equally honourable,— honourable to the government, because it is a testimony that no suspicions are entertained against it,— honourable to the Protestants, because, while it tiivos full opera- tion and efficacy to their z al, it involves no com- promise of their rights as freemen— and '^ ives real strength to the executive, without seeming to en. camber it with obligations. But, if the government were fo prove false1, were it to Imitate the Popish Cabinets of . Limes or A'hne, or t e Popish Whig Cabinet of 1806, would the Brunswick Clubs observe a neutrality? God forbid that they or any other Protestants should so abandon their birthright to dictate to, aud if need were; to cavhier the popish ministry. While the. King's government pursues that course, of which we have an ample pledge iu the unspotted faith of its chief, and iu the general character of its members, the Brunswick Clubs will be a tower of strength to it; for what can the puny Whigs, who have but one weapon wherewith to fight— popery to wit— do tfgainst the supporters of the administration, backed, as in a contest with the Whig faction it w ill be, by the cheap support of all that is patriotic and independent in the nation? To a Protestant, or even a neutral cabinet, the Bruns- wick Clubs can offer nothing to fear; to a popish administration' they would be a formidable embar- rassment ; and may heaven visit all such with similar, or, if the thing be possible, with greater embarrassments. We have said that the cry of dictation against the Brunswick Clubs is raised by the ywo- popery men, in shameless and disgusting contradiction to their own practice and pre. ching. For practice, let us refer to the Whig Clubs iu every county— to Ih.' ir pojtish associations in both kingdoms, to their Palace- yard and Westminster and Manchester Meetings, in short, to their very principle of existence as a political party, which seems to be ever kept alive, as it has been produced, by the fermentation of collected filth in one corner or another. , For their preachings in favour of the right of domination in public opinion we may refer to auv one of the books and newspapers which they have published while the silence of the genuine opinion o* f the conutry allowed them to sub st it tit e lor it the howling ol their rnbble. How- ever, let us take the fa Tip vv T h ^ fr 6' iti t tl 6 Times, as a summary of the doctrine of dictation :•— 44 Now NV have not Mauled either priests or laymen for PUSHING the cause of emancipation hy any HONEST means. Let them wee/, and harangue, and petition pailiameut, or THREATEN MINISTERS, and reinforce their party hy whatever expedients a MUNLY and zealous feeling for their rights and political interests would SUGGEST."— Tiniest November 14, 18' 2( J. Here is recoguised a right not merely to meet but to harangue also, and " THREATEN MINISTERS," from tlve same journal which now calls it uncon- stitutional to meet at alT^ though with little haranguing and absolutely without threatening. While we are upon this part of the subject", let us quote from Blackwood's Magazine an extract which satisfies us that had government been advised of the wishes of the Protestants a few years ago it had been better for all putties: FCT ! t is in vam to nVince the mattery or try TO disguise the fact. The government are much to blame iu this business of tlie Roman Catholic, A- socintiou.

GRAND PROTESTANT MEETING ON PENNF. NDF. N HEATH.— Such a meeting as that on Pennepden Heath, we can assure the - public, has not been witnessed in England for centuries, and, as eye- witnesses of the scene, we can safely affirm that no description on our part, or conception on theirs, can do justice to it. All the wealth, respectability, and intelligence uf Kent were collect! d, and by them it was decided unequivocally,— we had almost said Unanimously, for the minority vyas composed of an exotic faction, who attend such meetings profession- ally,— by them, by the Men of Kent, we repeat, it was decided, that the, Protestants would never consent to emancipate the Catholics, so long as they would • not submit to equivalent, if not the same, restrictions a « . themselves j that they would never admit . men to a participation of their constitutional privileges, who would not give'security that they would constitution- ally exercise them-, that they would make no concession on their part to ttie Catholic, unless the Catholic would give a bond that he would make no encroachment, on his; that they would admit no man to legislate for their church, who claimed immunity for his own; in short, that they would never consent to Catholic'•• Emancipation, on the grounds and under the circumstances in which it has been demanded by the agitator's. When the agitators return to Dublin, they Will speak the truth, because they will be too sore to modify or soften it. Let them tell their deluded countrymen the reception they encountered from the IVIen of Kent, and it. will perhaps, conduce somewhat to the improvement of their own behaviour and the tranquillixition of the. people.— Farmer'' s J o urn a I. OXFORD, NOV. 1.—' in a Convocation, holden on Thursday last, the Honorary Degree of M A. was conferred on George Cotes, Scholar of Trinity College, the successful, candidate for a WriteVship in India, given by the Right Hon.

On Saturday, an elderly man, named Evfen, an opulent farmer, was robbed and murdered ori his return from Ititsbury market, to his bouse at " f'baine, in Oxfordshire. Suspicion lias fallen upon a gang of poachers. The formal prorogation of Parliament to the IStli of December took place 011 Thursday afternoon. The Lords CommiSs'iot, icrs were, the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Aberdeen", and Lord Stowell. On Wednesday last, a highly respectable and well- attended meeting of the inhabitants of Bewdiey took place at the Town Hill in that Borough; when a petition fo Parliament against granting political power to Roman Catholics was unanimously agreed to. Some of the Newspapers have been circulating a statement that Lord Bexley was one of the few that opposed the Petition against Catholic Emanci- pation, agreed to at the late Kent . Meeting. The fact was fhe very reverse; and since that raeetin » his Lordship has addressed a letter to the freeholders • if Kerrt, which is iu. substance oife of fhe most power- ful and argumentative vindications of the Protestant cause that has hitherto been published; ami his Lordship, in one passage, speaks of Peunenden Heath " as the glorious scene of the triumph of the Protestant cans'.'." The Su ffolk Herald states, that arrangements are in progress for establishing a Brunswick Club ill that county. In the Court of King's Bcnch otr Tuesday, Lord Tenterdcn refused to allow the trial of an action, relative fo a wager t/ pou the issue of a wrestling match, to be proceeded with, and discharged the jury from giving any verdict. LONGEVITY.— There is now residing at Little Birch, in the county of Hereford, a venerable indivi- dual, whose extraordinary age, vigorous health, and personal strength, render him a most remarkable personage. His nanre is Thomas Stallard, and in May last, Ire nlimbcred lOti years. This youth of a hundred, last w'eek amused himself with ploughing a field, and afterwards sowed it w ith wheat in a truly husband- like manner ; and within the last fortnight, he was seen spreading dung in a field, with the vigour of a man of 40. Occasionally he mounts his horse for a ride ; and we understand the old gentleman has threatened a turn- out with Mr. DanseyV foxhounds, when they hunt irr his vicinity [ [ From the Manchester' Chronicle.'] Most fervently do we hope, tlrat every county in England will follow the example which has now been set them by the Protestants of Kent— and highly gratified should we lie to hear that the county of Lancaster was about to take the lead iu the order of successiiin. No part of the kingdom is more acquainted with the spirit, or better able to estimate the character, of Popery— nor is there any where a body of men less likely to he intimidated in the discharge of what they conceive to be their duty, than the Protestant freeholders of Lancashire. \ Ve have indeed heard it rumoured, thafa meeting will probably be convened at no very distant period, anil we trust the rumour is not entirely without founda- tion. Odious as the spectacle might be to the Papists of the county,— distasteful as it might prove to the palates of the Whigs, it would, we are assured, afford to the' rest of the community the highest satisfaction. We have only, therefore, to repeat our hope, that those gentlemen w ho, by theirj intelligence— their property— or their rank, possess the greatest weight and influence amongst us, will speedily come forward to effect so desirable an object. Uiider their auspices, the Protestant meeting of Lancashire will be in no respect. inferior to th: it of Kent. Should Mr. Sheil, or any other member of the Association be so negligent of prudence as to qualify himself for the occasion— he will have no reason, we suspect, to c m^ ritulate himself on the nature of his reception. He will find that our freeholders do not think more favourably of Poper'y, because it presumes to insult all established authority, and seeks its support, in acts of treason and rebellion. He will perceive that, tlieir hearts are united on this subject, as the heart of one man ; and he will be compelled to retire a second time with the conviction, that if there be one cause in which the people of England are more deeply interested than in another,- it is the maintenance and security of the Vrotestant Religion.

THE RUSSIANS AND TURKS. [ Wo consider ourselves fortunate in being; able to lay before our readers the following graphic, dfescriptiou, of the war between the Riissiauii and Turks, for which we- are indebted to a friend, a very gallant, intelligent, and distwi& uishwl British Officer We have seldom met with a picture of military operation* possessed of. su<* b characteristic spirit; and knowing so little as we do of tho- eombalants, the Cossack and the Moslem, their modes, their feelings, and their conduct towards each other in the struggle for blood and victory, we have read these details, which place them almost before our eyes, with a deep fkg. ree- of interest, which, v. e flatter ourselves, will be part'u ij? at « - « l with us by the public at large. At> a sketch of manners, if not of society, we question that ever our great rival, the ( Government Gazette, put forth a more generally acceptable document—. Ed. Ederur. y Gazctte.~] Russian Camp before Givrgero, on the Lower Danube, 28th July, 1828. 1 have persevered thus far in my attempts to visit the Kussia'u army as an amateur, for the purpose ef observing its Operations against the Turks, and arrived in Wallaehia, by way of Rotterdam, prank- fort, Vienna, Pest. li, and Hermanstadt: The former part, of my journey was productive chiefly- of pleasure ; but the hitter part, of many of the disagreeables of travelling-; for, in my progress hither from Austria, I have been nearly jolted to death by the bad roads of Hungary, and narrowly escaped breaking my neck by tbe viler passes of the Carpathians of Transylvania on the frontiers of VVallachia. 1 have been almost poisoned by filth, devoured by vermin, broiled by the sun, have exposed myself to the contagious fever of tbe country, and to that infernal disease the plague, which has for. some time past been committing its ravages in Bucharest; indeed, have almost gone through tire and water to attain the fulfilment of my wishes, but have only, as yet succeeded in reaching the banks of the Lower Danube Hearing that frequent sorties were made by the troops of Kut< huck Achmet from < iiurgevo, I obtained the sanction of the governor of the princi- palities to come here; have attached myself for the present to the corps of the Russian army before that fortress, and am partaking' of the hospitality, and sharing the black bread and inconveniences of the Cossack and Russian soldier in his bivouac before the enemy. Behold me, then, under the influence of a most scorching Wallachia sun, on Turkish ground, in the very midst of war, and amongst total strangers. I cannot tell you what I eat or drink, for it has become a rule with me of late never to inquire into the composition of a mess, or even to look at it, if it can be avoided ; but I have a soldier's fare, and experience the greatest civility from the officers, particularly from the commanding General Kvitnitsky. The Danube here runs nearly W. and E. along the foot ofa range of Bulgarian hills,— is wide, deep, and rapid, and encloses several islands between its boundaries. On its right bank is Rutschuk, a fortress with a large garrison ; and a very little lower down, on the opposite side,, forming a sort of lite de pont9 is the small, but tolerably strong fortress of Giurgevo. It is an irregular work built after European principles, presents three or four bastions towards the field, has a citadel, contains, a garrison of about 3000 or 4000 men, which may be increased at pleasure from Rut- schuk, and mounts about 150 pieces of cannon. To the north, distant about five miles, and nearly parallel with the above- mentioned hills, is another range ( or rather the ground presents an inclination to the south), at the foot of which, and immediately opposite to Giurgevo, are three Muscovite encamp- ments, whence the minarets of the latter place, as weH as those of Kutschuk, are seen with the naked eye. The intermediate space is. an open plain, with scarcely any undulation, and cove red with, small brushwood, Indian corn, long grass, and high thistles, affording localities for skirmishing to the foragers and outposts of both parties ...... Thus disposed, tbe troops may be said to be continually under arms ; the infantry are always in square; they, eatj . drink, and sleep in square ; and at night, in the must inclement weather, never quit that form. The general aud field officers only have tents; sheds, or temporary huts, composed of branches and hay, are erected for the other officers and the troops, close to their stations, under which they are allowed to retire in the middle of the day from the burning heat of tbe sun, which within the last few days has been 10i'> deg and 105 dog. of Fahrenheit in the shade; and it is then only that a portion of the horses are unsaddled ; so that, in the event of an alarm, it requires but little time to put the whole force in march for its position. There is no scarcity of provisions, though the quality of the bread," of the darkest hue," is bad ; aud the water, which is in this country very indifferent, is supplied from the neigh- bouring wells But the Russian soldier, is a tough material, and ordinarily calculated to bear the fatigues and hard- ships of war. In ihe manner above alluded to, subsisting on food of a very inferior quality, he is constantly exposed to all weathers, for here the burning heat of the day is generally succeeded by cold, damp, chilly nights; and the thunder storms, which at certain seasons aix4 so frequent, are ac- companied by torrents of rain, which instantly deluge the country with water. These, to ordinary constitu- tions would be fatal; but on him they seem to have comparatively, no effect. With an implicit obedience to Orders, the Russian is, as it were, a complete machine. Careless and thoughtless of danger, indeed, without exercising his reasoning faculties, he moves when he is told, and halts when he is commanded; nor will he, under the severest fire, retire, unless ordered to do so. It was surprising to see the pcrfect indifference with which a regiment the other day, stood under a rather severe cannonade, and the apathy with which the men looked at the balls and shells that fell around rhem ; and it is a fact, that at the siege of Ibraila, a considerable column which was destined to storm the place, missed its way, and got into the ditch, where there was not the slightest vestige of a breach. In this situation they were nearly annihilated ; nor would they, notwithstanding the mistake was evident, move until a positive order from the Grand J uke Michael was sent to rccall them. But the Cossacks excite most my curiosity and interest; equally brave and hardy as the regular Russian soldier, they possess a sagacity aud cunning which is not a characteristic of the former. When the firing commenced, it w as easily observed that the Cossacks around began instantly to assume an alacrity, and to be alive to what was going on. They took their horses in hand— never remained quite stationary — kept a sharp look- out in the direction of the fire of the cannon, and watched the richochet of the ball and flight of the shell, so as to be in readiness to avoid them. They are a incongruous sctj certainly ! Some I to lads— some almost in rags and patches of various colours— bile others are in very decent attire. The Cossack, who is appointed to attend me as orderly, is a young man, by no means Cossack- like, according to the notions I had formed of these people. I was struck by his sivihzed appearance and manners; for, on my arrival, when he first came to me, with the respectful deportment of a soldier, united to an easiness and almost elegance of manner, he said he was sent to wait upon me by order of his general, and had the honour of presenting himself to receive my commands. I do not mean to say they are all of this classy but I am told that some of them are people of great wealth in their own count! y, amassed chie& y by plunder in the last wars; yet so great is their passion for that species of gain, " auri sacra fames," that, notwithstanding their riches, they voluntarily leave their families and comfortable dwellings, and expose themselves, at an advanced age, in quest of more. That they are marauders, and that they are rather merciless at. times, is true ; for an attempt was made to make them give up for the general good the plunder they took in action, but without success— it was then found that no prisoners were taken— they were invariably killed : so that, as their services are so essential, to the army, it is become necessary to sanction their practices ; and to prevent atrocities, the Emperor has issued a very humane order, by which the Cossack or soldier receives one ducat for every prisoner on foot taken alive, and two ducats for every prisoner mounted. The Cossacks are divided into regiments of 500 each, having a standard and captain for every hundred, independent of junior officers— one, two or more field- officers for the whole, according to circum- stances, and a lieutenant- colonel, or colonel- com- . mandant,, whose name the regiment bears. In their bivouacs, as well as in their operations and attacks, they seem to pay little regard to regularity ; and their huts, those of the officers as well as those of the men, in front of which are picketed their horses, are formed in the simplest and rudest manner imaginable ; sometimes three pikes or poles with branches and hay, or perhaps their burkas, or cloaks of skin, thrown over them, form their dwellings. Armed with a pistol stuck under each arm in a girdle, a firelock slung across his shoulders, and sword, or a long 12- foot pike- the Cossack is, on the least alarm, instantly ready for combat. He is endowed by his nature and habits with an instinct which peculiarly fits him for the duties of out- posts, and. for their service ( in which, by the by, I am taking some lessons) I suppose the Cossacks the best troops in the world. The confidence reposed in them is such, that the whole duty of the advanced posts is intrusted to their care, and performed by 250 men, and so great is their patience and vigilance, that nothing escapes their observation, and not a Turk can stir outside the fortress without their immediate knowledge. The moment, an alarm is given, the first two or three that can get ready immediately sally forth from the bivouac — these are followed by six or eight- these again by more— and lastly comes the reserve, or main body, io perhaps greater order. In their regular'attacks they are sometimes in one and some- times in two ranks, according to their strength; they advance in the form of a semi- circle, with the centre retired ; the greater numbers immediately flv off and seek the flanks and rear of the enemy, while a small portion, supported frequently by a reserve, attack to the front; but perhaps what makes them the most formidable, is the extraordinary facility with which they disperse and instantly collect again in a pulk or body upon any particular part of the enemy's line However, for the most part, they pay little attention to regularity; so that after an attack, having no true.- pets or sounds to assemble them, and as they do not always take out their standards, their captains are obliged, by dint of hallooing, or in the best manner they can, to collect their pulks. They do not in general use the pike like the lance, but couch it and ride full gallop, like tiie knights of old, at their an tagonists. The Turk justly fears it, as the instru merit, should it not kill, inflicts a dreadful gash ; and the unfortunate sufferer, when severely wounded and transpierced, has been often known to say, " Ah. Cossack '."' and by signs implore him to put an end liis miseries by an effectual thrust. After having overcome his prisoner, the first thin the Cossack does, is to seize upon his arms, which with the Turks are highly ornamented and valuable — his turban and sash, which are sometimes cashmere shawls of great worth— and his purse ; and if he is not killed or badly wounded, the victor then places the unfortunate man behind him, upon the very cautle of his saddle, seizes him hy the hands, and gallops off with hini to the rear. In this situation, jolted and galled almost to death, I saw a Turkish chief ( a. colonel) a few days ago, who had been taken prisoner by an old grey- bearded, toothless Cossack, at the commencement of an affair, and was by him brought before the General for examination. The outposts have skirmishes almost daily; but the Cos- sacks and Turks seem to have a good understanding between them, for they often meet, talk to each other, and carry on war in a more civilised way than formerly. The Turks, perhaps I should say those of the garrisons of Giurgevo and Rutschuck, do not corre- spond with the idea I had formed of them, from all that 1 have heard or read of that race— indeed, I believe we have generally a very imperfect knowledge of that nation, and that most of the accounts we receive of them are very much misrepresented or exaggerated. There is a nobleness of disposition, an openpess and truth in the Turk, individually, that is not to be found in his Christian tributary, who has of late so much occupied the attention of foreign powers : the word of a Turk is sacred— if he pledge it, you are safe. How very different the hitter's !: with whom, it is said, you can never be sure of any engagements. — whose treachery is proverbial, and whose barbarities are more numerous and of deeper dye than those of his governors. But, as I said, the forces of the above garrison do not answer the expectations 1 had formed of the Turkish soldier. From the specimen before us, it would induce a belief that they had either degenerated as warriors* or, which - is most natural to suppose, that the Sultan has the flower of the; Otto- man forces at Schumla, behind the Balkan: but the invincible Janissary no longer exists, and the daring Spahi, with his proud Arab charger, does not glitter amid the ranks of Kutchuck Achmet, whose troops are mounted upon small, ordinary, and sometimes very inferior horses. Trousers, very loose to the calf, thence tight to the ancle; a close waistcoat, open at the neck, and covered below by a shawl tied round the waist; a jacket, with very full and short sleeves^ shewing the equally loose sleeves, of the shirt; a turban on his head, and yellow boots or slippers on his feet, form the very becoming dress of a Turk. The trousers, waistcoat, and jacket, are of various colours, and ornamented with embroidery ; and the turban is white, green, or otherwise, according to the rank and privileges of the wearer. His arms area long knife, called a hand jar or yatagan, used for cutting off heads, a brace of pistols, which he carries in a broad leathern girdle, a gun slung across the shoulders, and a curved sabre, his dexterity in the use of which is such, that with a single blow, or rather cut, he will sever the head from the body. The Turks have hi tie or no method in their move- ments, or in their mode of warfare. Sometimes they will sally forth from the fortress in bodies of 100 or 150, and endeavour to surprise an advanced post of Cossacks, near tjie village of Slobadze, on the west of Giurgevo: and sometimes, with a larger force, they will make a dash on the left flank of the camp ( where several have been killed in the very bivouac of the Cossacks,) in the rear of which are some stores and waggons, supposed by them to be treasures. The Pacha is very active, and has his favourite days for sorties, which are generally on Thursdays, Saturdays, or Sundays. Reinforced by troops from Rutschuk, lie will at those times come out with a force of 6000 or 7000 men, and endeavour at once to penetrate to the encampment of his enemy ; or he will draw up under protection of the guns of the fortress, and tempt his adversary from his position, and within range of the shot, of the works. Frequently, after cannonading for a time, the Turks will move forward in a tolerable line of cavalry and infantry mixed ; and then, in masses or wedges, composed promiscuously, of those two forces, and with shouts of " Allah! Allah! Allah1," they will advance up< n their opponents. Infuriated often by opium, thev are very vigorous at first; but the coolness mid tiniin.- ss of the Russians— who usually receive them in squares, supporting each other, ami the cavalry having- al the same time guns at their angles— and the stea< ly and well- directed tire, particularly of their artillery, soon disperse and put t'iC Moslems to flight, and then the Cossacks are let loose upon them. They have always been very wary ing they are only formed three deep, the Turkish cavalry have not succeeded in making- any impression. The field- pieces of the Turks are, if any thing, of a smaller calibre than those of the Russians, and were at first drawn by bullocks instead of horses; but in the practice of their artillery they are by no means so deficient as is generally supposed : it is possible they may have foreigners with them— for their shot, con- trary to received opinion, are thrown with an accu- racy that would do credit lo regularly disciplined artilleryists. It is difficult to say, how far we may believe the stories respecting their barbarous treatment of their prisoners. It was reported here, and believed at first, that an aide- de- camp, whom they had captured at Ibraila, was Hayed alive as far as the waist; but this, like many similar reports, could not be traced to any respectable source. It has been a custom with the Turks to cut. off the heads of the killed after an engagement, for tbe purpose of sending them as trophies to Constantinople. When they become too numerous for transporting, the noses and ears only were so honoured ; and it has often happened, parti- cularly at the moment . of exasperation, that, those ' extremities also of the prisoners were likewise in requisition to make up a certain quota for the Sultan, — but this is not invariably tbe case.- Tlie Turkish prisoners meet with any tiling but il'- treatmcnt from tbe Russians. The Cossacks will occasionally be rather merciless, but the captives, hen brought in, are always well treated, and have frequently been sent back with presents. The " Wkish chief of whom 1 have made mention was, tbe day after his capture, invited to the hut of the chief of the staff, presented with a purse of money subscribed by several of tbe officers, and told that if be chose to write for his baggage he was, at liberty to do so, and a message should be sent to the Pacha to that effect. Indeed he seemed content with his change of situation, smoked his pipe, took coffee, was quite communicative, and no doubt wondered at tiie circumstance of finding his head upon his shoul- ders. No fewer than three times during the preceding eck, did Kutchuck Achmet favour us with some polite affairs; the last, on Saturday, might perhaps he called more serious than ordinary. Having re- ceived a reinforcement of light artillery equipped ith horses, and having augmented his numbers by roops from the opposite side of the river, he came out towards evening in considerable force. We had not long finished our repast at. the General's table, when a few shots announced the sortie of the Pacha; and ere the lapse of many seconds, a Cossack was seen darting across the plain, and soon after entered ( he camp, almost breathless, with a confirm- ation of the event. As the troops were all ready, no delay was necessary, and the whole force was instantly in motion for its position in front of the encampment. The horse artillery, supported by the greater part of the dragoons, was stationed in the centre, a li. tt! e in advance. The infantry, in squares of battalions, with guns at the angles, was placed iu echellon, and, with the remainder of the dragoons, formed the light wing; and the Cossacks, supported by a small body of infantry and some guns, occupied the ground on the left, in front of theii bivouac j the whole was formed at very, extended intervals. During these preparations, tbe advanced posts were occupied in some skirmishing ; but no sooner were the Russians- stationary in their position, than the Turks. commenced, a tire of shots and shells from their new guns,, which- was as readily returned by the opposite party. The Turkish artillery was uncom- monly well served ; at a long range, almost the first shot passed- through a squadron of cavalry,* and others fell around as, " niethought in plentiful abundance;" but most of their shells, from a defici- ency in the length of fuse, exploded before reaching their destination. The large guns of the fortress also contributed their endeavours, and tbe cannonade lasted above a couple of hours. In the mean while the Turks were observed collecting their forces, and meditating- some movement, as was supposed, against tbe right flank; soon, however, they advanced with a tolerable line,. and in their usual manner, and thought to overwhelm tbe horse artillery, the dragoons, and the regiment of infantry, that occupied the centre of the Russian line; but inciting with a determined resistance— having two of their guns disabled by the effective fire of their opponents, and observing the squares, on the left, which they had not seen before— they immediately fell back under cover of tbe works. It was now imagined that they were about to take leave of us for tbe night, and the firing 011 both sides ceased;- but on. a closer examination, it was evident that they were making frcsli arrangements : detached masses- were seen in motion, and presently a large force was observed advancing against the left flank. The firing now recommenced— the uninterrupted roar of small amis gave proofs of a nearer approach of the parties to each other. " Allah ! Allah ! Allah!" resounded, from the ranks of the Mussclman, and in the succeeding moment the scymetar of the Turk and the pike of the Cossack were in close and terrible contact. The contest for a time was furious; the sons of the " Don at first gave way, but instantly rallying, repulsed the assailants, who very soon after retired within the walls of the fortress, and left us unmolested during the remainder of the day. The night bad commenced when the troops returned to the camp, after an absence of between five and six hours; and that scene which but a short time before was so portentous and bloody, was soon changed to one of tranquillity and repose, over which the moon shed her more than usual brightness; and nought broke 011 its stillness, save the sound of," S^ tusehiiij," uttered by the watchful sentinel. On these occasions is is difficult to obtain a correct statement of the loss 011 either side, as the Turks, when possible, invariably carry off their killed as well as wounded; and the Russians are naturally anxious to conceal their loss. Whoever contemplates the present condition of the Russians, will be astonished at the rapid strides they have made towards civilization of late years, and the improvements that have evidently taken place in the organization of their forces. I did not exactly expect to find a horde of barbarians; but I was prepared to meet with a set of men not many degrees removed from that, state— deficient altogether in mind— devoid of moral feeling, and destitute of all the nobler qualities of tbe heart— but 1 was mistaken; they have profited considerably hy the experience of the wars that, arose out of the French revolution— which wars, while they instructed thein as soldiers, afforded them also an opportunity of visiting, and at the same time receiving some of the polish of, the more civil- ized nations of the Continent. If they seek the permanent possession of comforts and luxuries, which those events have once enabled them to enjoy, it is by no means an unnatural desire. They have an Emperor, young, active, and ambitious ; and an army which, with a little more science, and a few more leaders of ability, will become formidable, not only to their neighbours, but to Europe in general. C. R. O'DONNI- X, late 15tli Hussars. - I was standing at the angle of r. ne of the squaresof infantry, talking to tlie Colonel and Officers at. ttie time when the si:, it, after upsetting a couple of men and horses, fell within a few l.- et of ns. One of the officers picked it up, and g. ueitn. e, • ayiufr, " Permit me, Sir, to present, you with a Turkish ball tiering, 011 the field of battle, from the regimL- nt ttf Tobolsk.." Majesty had visited the undermining, he entered the breaches, and visited all parts of the city which had been attacked. According to the reports of the prisoners, the garrison of Varna, with the armed in- habitants, amounted to 2- 2,000 men in the beginning ; to- day we only find 6,000 men there. We know nothing certain yet as to the number of prisoners, or of the trophies taken, or the munitions which have fallen into our hands." fllieccUaiicctis intelligence. In the history of political manceuvre, there is no record of a miscalculation so gross as that by which the Liberals arrived, either at the propriety of tbe measures they adopted on Pennenden Heath, or at the possibility of their success. Such an instance of palpable infatuation, we will venture to say, cannot be paralleled by any blunder of the fondest enthu- siast that ever plotted himself into an awkward pre- dicament. Throe Peers, more eccentric than amiable — Radnor, Darnley, and Teynham; two briefless barristers, disagreeably Irish— Messrs. Sheil and Shea; two public characters, whom it is superfluous to name, and an auctioneer from Rochester. These, and no other, were the materials of a party, which essayed to stitle the voices of fifty thousand gentle- men and yeomen, who had gathered together under the impression that their rights as citizens and Pro- testants were in jeopardy, and with a determination to defend them.— Such an exploit was never dreamed of before, except by fable or by idiotcy. We have read that Don Quixote tilted at windmills, and we have seen the poor woman of Battersea, who raves to walk dry- shod over the Thames, scooping the water with a tea- cup, and driving the tide back with tbe palm of lier hand; and, with these exceptions, we confess never to have read nor seen such ail extrava- gant and hopeless adventure as that of six or seven not very significant gentlemen— some of them strang- ers in person, and all aliens in feeling, to the Men of Kent— invading that large and spirited county, with tbe hope of bullying it with effect, or insulting it with impunity.— That the Whigs would have had no hand 111 the affair if they had truly known what was likely to be the result, and that they will not hastily be implicated in others of the same nature, We are most positively assured. The little character they have not squandered wears away by tbe rubs it meets with on such rough occasions; and every defeat is fol- lowed, not only by the triumph of their enemies, but the reproaches of their friends. u As Ministers" — — exclaims in an agony of bitterness the only one of our liberal contemporaries who has hitherto recovered from the shock—<( As Ministers, they have secured no respect from tbe Crown— as an Opposition, no confidence from the people !" If tbe W'higs attend any future Protestant Meetings after this, they have more long- suffering than the world assigns to them.— Courier. The following is an extract of a letter from Cohbett to the Editor of The Morning Herald, descriptive of the Kent meeting:— " As to the character of the meeting, it presented to my eyes the finest, the grandest, tbe noblest sight that these eyes ever beheld; there were not less than 2,000 men 011 horseback, and more than 100 post- chaises and other carriages; 1 do not believe that such a scene was beheld in England for a great number of years— it was an honour to the County, and an honour to tbe Country. Mr. Sheil spoke less than half an hour, he was not heard at any time, that is to say, not a word that he uttered was heard so as to understand his meaning at more than ten feet from where he stood. It was quite surprising to behold bis gesticulations, and the foaming of his mouth — with that foam he bespangled the whole of the fore- part of bis own dress- He did as much mischief as it was possible for man to do in so short a space of time to the character of his own country, and to tbe cause of his religion in the estimation of a sober and sensible people. The speech that appears in print was not made on Pennenden Heath, but in London, and was in print at the time w hen the maker of it was foaming at the mouth on Pennenden Heath. When the question was put, the majority was not three to one, as the reports say, but nineteen to twenty against Catholic Emancipation. Indeed, the rote in that respect may be called unanimous, for there were no; in fact fen men in the whole meeting who would have held up their hands for Catholic Emancipation ; so that Mr. Shed came from Ireland, and Doctor Doyle came from France, and the " Noble Catholics of the Association sent down Mr. Shea and Mr. With man,. t « witness this clear, this unequivocal, this irrevocable sentence passed upon their cause by a Meeting of Englishmen of all religious persuasions, and of numbers and character, such as in my opinion hiis never been equalled ill England since I was born." NEGRO SLAVERY IN THE UNITED STATES.— An inhabitant of one of the southern states writes thus to a friend in Pennsylvania, where he formerly resided : " It was but yesterday as I sat before the door of my humble dwelling, that 1 saw 110 less than 28 unfortu- nate black men, all ironed and chained together, with a heavy chain, moving along' bare- headed and bare- footed through tiie hot broiling sun, followed by a troop of miserable looking women and children, and tbe whole driven by inhuman monsters, in the shape of men, armed with pistols to shoot down any poor negro who might attempt to escape, and with clubs and whips to drive forward tbe weary wretches that might chance to fall behind. Here were parents who had been torn from their children, children torn from their parents, husbands from their wives, wives from their husbands— chained together like wild beasts— they were driven along to be sold like brutes. To be sold to inhuman task- masters, inhabiting a sickly country, where they must, either drag out a miserable life in servitude, fall victims to the most horrid diseases, or should they attempt to escape, become the prey of alligators and the venomous re]. tiles which abound in the swamps of the Mississippi. My feelings revolted, my soul sickened at the sight, and 1 closed my e\ es on the horrid spectacle. I exclaimed, can this be a land of liberty- 1" FALL OF VARSA. [ FROM THE SUPPLEMENT TO THE HAMBURG PAPERS OF SATURDAY.] From before Tana, Oct. 11. Success has crow ned the efforts of the Russian arms under the walls of Varna. This morning that fortress surrendered at discretion, and our army is now enter- ing the place. This happened in conscquence of an universal panic, caused by the ardour of a small party of our troops, which in the night of the 7tli of October rushed into the midst of the city; the fright was so great that they began to treat 011 the same evening. In consequence of the treaty Youssouff Pacha was the first to order bis army to lay down their arms without capitulation, surrendering himself and army Into our hands. His example was followed by the1 WV. f the garrison that night and the following'iviorning; only the Captain Pacha, with a small number of his people, fled into the citadel, w here he was made prisoner by our troops, who pushed forward through the breaches into the city with drums beating and colours flying, without opposition. First came the 13tli and 14th Regiments of Foot Yagers, then followed a battalion of Guards, Sappers, and afterwards the regiment of Imperial Guards. His Majesty the Emperor visited the operations for the siege, and convinced himself of the great diffi- culties he had to contend with from the beginning, and particularly on the last days, when the operations were carried 011 with unexampled ardour. After his Gibraltar Gazettes and private letters of the 6th inst. have been received, and supply us with further particulars of tbe progress of the fever, which we are sorry to state is still on the increase. On the 3d, 5P1 patients were ill, 101 admitted, and 24 deaths; 011 the 4th, 600 ill, 90 admitted, and 24 dead; on the 6th, 620 ill, 27 dead; so that < J9 persons had fallen victims' within the last four days by its ravages. Some smugglers having landed at Atgesiras had been shot, for having come from thefortiess, and had their clothes and bodies burnt; six or seven of the same description ot'ipersons bad been put to death near Cadiz; anil the utmost alarm seems to have seized the Spanish. authorities, who had intimated to Go- vernor Don, that if these persons were permitted to leave the garrison certain death would be their fate; besides which they would cut off the supplies of the fortress. In consequence of this, the General had issued a proclamation, which states, that in consc- quence of a disease highly dangerous to the public health existing, and its being expedient to prevent its introduction into tbe neighbouring countries, it is ordered that all vessels or craft under forty tons be not allowed to clear out from the Port without special permission of tlie Lieutenant- Governor, 011 application to the Captain of the Port. The wind was west, and rather showery, but heavy rains were wanted to cleanse the air from infection. Qn the 6th, we are sorry to olierve, thirteen Officers were sick. LEAD ORE.— Last week, we had the pleasure of communicating to our readers an advance in the price of Iron, and now feel further gratified in being enabled to state, that a considerable improvement has taken place in the value of Lead Ore, at the last monthly sales, at Mold and Holywell; which by giving an increased stimulus to the miners and smelters of those districts, will consequently afford additional employ- ment to a numerous body of deserving and indus- trious individuals. A duty of 25s. per ton on tbe importation of Foreign Lead Ore, commences on the 1st December next. FAI. SE KANNS OF MATRIMONY.— Mr. Thomas Buxton, of Stenson, in Derbyshire, against whom an indictment was preferred, and a true bill found, at the Lancaster assizes, for having caused to be inserted io the register- book of banns of matrimony at Manches- ter, a certain false entry, relating to a marriage which was solemnized between him and one Elizabeth Nickson, was on Saturday week admitted to bail by order of the Judges of the Court of King's Bench, himself in £ 1,000, with four sureties in £ 250 each, to appear and take bis trial for the said offence at the next assizes. He also entered into recognizances, with sureties, to appear to other indictments preferred against him. It is rumoured in the fashionable circles that the Hon. Mr. Jerningham, eldest son of Lord Stafford, will shortly be united to Miss Julia Howard, the beautiful and accomplished niece of the Duke of Norfolk. His Grace, with the Earl and Countess of Surrey, are at present on a visit at Costessey, Lord Stafford's seat.— Norwich Post. We are happy to hear that the two daring burglars who robbed and threatened to murder Mrs. Brvdges, ofOverbury, the particulars of which were inserted in our last week's Paper, have been apprehended. It appears that immediately after the robbery, the perpetrators thereof went direct to Gloucester, where each of them purchased a suit of new clothes with a portion of their ill- gotten wealth From thence they went to Ledbury, where they tried to dispose of the goods which they had stolen ; and not succeeding, they proceeded to Hereford with the same view. The circumstance of their having a quantity of plate in their possession of course created suspicion ; and when the robbery at Overbury became known at Hereford, the fellows were taken up and committed to prison. On Tuesday, they were removed to Tewkesbury, and, on the following day, underwent an examination before the Rev. Dr. Timbrill and the Rev. John Keysall, two Magistrates of the county of Worcester, who remanded them to Tewkesbury bo- rough gaol, to allow time for witnesses to attend. The burglars were re- examined on Thursday, and fully committed to Worcester gaol, where they are now safely lodged. They are committed by the names of Charles Clarke otherwise James Unban, and William Nicholts. It. is painful to reflect, that one of the men is a relative of the old lady whom they plundered. Some time ago, an alarming fissure, proceeding from the foundation having given way, presented itself in the south angle of Wcntworth House, the seat of Earl Fitzwilliam, and, on examination, it was- found that the base, designed to sustain a pile so im- mense and so splendid, was actually laid in a pond I Under the direction of Mr. Telford, whose skill was recently called 111 requisition to avert the impending- ruin, the whole of the ponderous mass of building in that part of the house was supported by strong wooden buttresses, until the defective foundation was removed to tbe depth of twenty- four feet below the surface of the ground, and replaced by huge blocks of stone, piled on each other, till they met the sus- pended walls; thus approximating as closely perhaps, as can be accomplished in England, to the trans- Atlantic feat of removing houses, foundation and all, from one site to another. The public statue of his Majesty, by Chantrey, is now erecting at Brighton, under the superintends nee of the artist. It is of heroic size, and the sculptor has impressed ou it the easy dignity and graceful simplicity for which the original is distinguished. The figure looks to the sea; one foot is in advance, the right hand held gently out, and over the whole is thrown a robe which reaches to the pedestal. The outline is pcrfect— for the robe is so disposed as to shew to advantage the fine limbs and iiwt proportions of the figure. It is of bronze— a clean solid cast, which seems to have come perfect from the mould ; and is the first work which the artist has executed in metal. A young lad, last week, from curiosity, wished to get to the top of the tower ( now nearly at its height) erecting at the new Church, Fordoun. Having placed himself on the machine with which the building materials are drawn up, he soon found himself far above his highest earthly wish ; for so terrified was the poor fellow, that, on looking down, he almost fainted ; nor could all the entreaties of the workmen prevail on him to take to the box to be again set upon mother earth. Having lain from three to six in the afternoon, the masons were obliged to embark him by force. Unluckily, however, when he was nearly halfway down, the masons at the top, in turning about a bucket full of water, emptied the greater part of its contents on his distracted pate, which so startled the youth that he shrieked violently, and clung to the rope so firmly, that even when at the ground he would scarcely be persuaded he could fall no farther. His brain, from the dreadful fright, evi- dently appears to have been very much affected. EXCISE INFORMATIONS.— Important to Hat Manufacturers.— An application was lately made to the Magistrates at. the New Bailey, in Manchester, for the condemnation of three casks, containing 5S gallons of a compound called varnish, used iu the hat making business, and being mainly composed of spirits of wine, for removal without a permit. They were found at the warehouse of a carrier, by whom they had been brought, from Edinburgh, and there seized by the Excise. Two other hat manufacturers were summoned to answer to the charge of having a mixture similar to the above 011 their premises, and using the same, by which they incurred a penalty of £ 100. The parties were convicted in the mitigated penalties of £ 25 each and costs, with forfeiture of tbe goods. GOI- D WASHINGS.— Strange as it may appear, it is a fact, that till very lately the jewellers were in the constant practice of throwing away the water into which they dip articles of jewellery after they are taken out of the boil ( a menstruum of nitro- muriatic acid, employed to give them a high finish), without being at all aware of the quantify of gold tii. lt was thrown away with it. Of late, a person possessed of some chemical knowledge is said to have made a handsome livelihood, by instructing jewellers, at the rate of five guineas each, in a method of recovering the gold contained in tbe washings. This method consists simply in adding a solution of copperas, which precipitates the gold, and then fusing the re- siduum with nitre, by which the iron in combination is oxidated, and the gold left in a pure state. AN " OLD ALMANACK."— It is " truly curious" as Coctiletop says iu the farce, to find how often the pages of history supply us with cases parallel to our present circumstances ill this country; and indeed so strictly analogous arc they, and so com- plete in point, that in place of designating such volumes as " OLD," they may be considered as uperpetual Almanacks," calculated for the meridian of Ireland, as for example, read the following :— Extract from Sir John Temple's History of the Irish Rebellion and Massacre of 1641, written and published in 1646.— London, reprinted 1679— page 132—" 1 purpose now to declare bow these great instruments of mischief, that were the supreme con- ductors of this wicked design, moved forward so successfully in the beginning towards the accom- plishment of their long intended extirpation of all tbe British and Protestants out of the kingdom. I find two sorts of persons who did most eminently appear in laying those main fundamentals, where- upon their bloody superstruetions were afterwards easily reared up. And these were such of the Popish Lawyers as w ere natives of the kingdom, and those of the Romish Clergy of several degrees and orders. For the first they had in regard of their know ledge of the laws or- Ihe land very great reputation and trust, they now began to stand up like great patriots for tbe vindication of the liberties of ttie subject, aud redress of their pretended grievances, and having by- their bold appearing therein made a great party iu the House of Com- mons, some of them did there magisterially obtrude, as undoubted maxims of law, the pernicious specu- lations of their own brains— which thflugh plainly discerned to be full of virulency and tending to sedition, yet so strangely were many Protestants, and well- meaning men in the House blinded with au apprehension of ease aud redress, aud SQ stupi- fied with their bold accusations of the government, as most thought not fit, and others durst not stand up, to contradict their foul assertions, & c. & e." DUBLIN, SATURDAY-— Yesterday morning, about five o'clock, the cotton factory pf Mr. Jones, at Finglas, was discovered to be 011 fire. Every aid which the inhabitants could render was given for the preservation of the building, but without the slightest effect. In two hours this great factory, which has been of such immense advantage to the poorer classes nejir finglas, by giving thein constant employment, sunk to the ground a mass of burning ruins. The fire is supposed to have originated in what is termed the picking room, immediately beneath one in which was stored a large quantity of cotton. There cannot be the slightest doubt entertained that the fire was ac- cidental, as there were no complaints on the part of the workmen against their employer, nor any on his of combination amongst the men. lu fact, this fire was felt by the poor people a most dreadful calamity; and when it was ascertained that the factory could not be saved, men and women were seen running about the road wringing their hands in despair, at losing that means of employment which they had promised themselves would have given them a comfortable subsistence during the winter. We regret exceedingly to hear that the building was not insured for more than £ 3,000, although the property destroyed could not amount to less thau £ 13,000. Letters from Tripoli, dated the 10th ult. give a long account of an unsuccessful cannonade of the city by the Neapolitans on the 22d of August. Ac- cording to these letters the latter discharged no less than four thousand cannon lialls and upwards of four hundred bombs, not ten of which reached the city. The Neapolitan ships were much injured; and on the 29th the entire fleet quitted the station without leaving a ship to blockade the harbour. IRELAND— by a course of temporising policy— by a mistaken system of conciliation on the part of her rulers, has been reduced to a condition of distress and danger, which no reflecting man can contemplate without mingled feelings of pity, indignation, and alarm. In her present state, she affords a practical lesson to warn every politician of the inevitable con- sequences of innovating on established principles of Government. She is a striking example of the effects of that liberality which is a subject of so much ad- miration among the political philosophers of our day. She will teach men, if any thing can teach them, to respect the wisdom of their forefathers, w ho were not easily imposed on by specious names— who were guided by experience and observation— and to whom the reproach of prejudice was not so very formidable" as to lead them to surrender, with a gentle air and a complacent smile, the most invaluable privileges of the British Constitution. MANCHESTER, OCT. 28.— About aqnarter before seven o'clock, the Doctor coach, 011 its way from this town to Liverpool, was going at a quick pace up the gentle ascent beyond the Woolpack Inn, with the. lamps lighted when it came in contact with the Volunteer, which was coming down the hill towards Manchester, without lamps ; and such was the force of the concussion, that the Volunteer . was instantly overturned with a dreadful crash, aud the whole of tbe outside passengers, seven or eight in number together with the coachman, were precipitated with great violence upon the road, and were all, we believe, more or less injured. The Coachman, George Robson, who has driven for a number of years 011 the Liverpool road, fell upon his head, and received so violent a concussion of the brain, that there is not the slightest chance of his recovery ; and, indeed, when we saw him last night, it was considered almost mpossible that he could lire until morning. One of the outside passengers, also, a fine young woman named Mitchell ( whose father, we understand keeps a shop in the Star Yard), received a concussion of the brain, and, though her situation is not quite so desperate as that of the coachman, there is, we fear, but a slender chance of her recovery. Another of the outside passengers, a Mr. Anderton, of Stand, near this town, suffered a compound fracture of the leg, but, we believe, is likely to do well. A woman, w hose name we could not learn, had the bone of the elbow fractured; and two or three others received injuries of a less serious description. There were also, we believe, two or three inside passengers, who were not materially hurt. All the sufferers from this melancholy accident were conveyed to the Woolpack Inn, where surgical aid was promptly obtained for them, and every other assistance afforded which their situation required. The coachman, Miss Mitchell, and Mr. Anderton, still remain there ; but three of the others, after having their wounds dressed, were sent in coaches to the infirmary. It was stated to us last night that a person who had assisted in conveying Miss Mitchell to the Woolpack bad taken two or three rings from her fingers, and carried them off. We trust, however, that either the statement will turn out wholly unfounded, or that the rings were taken from her fingers in order that they might be given up to her friends. A sum of money which she had about her ( upwards of £ 50) was delivered to Mrs. Chatter- ton, and, we believe, remains in her possession. We believe no accident happened to any of the passengers of the Doctor. The coach fortunately was " not overturned ; but. the pole was broken, and the veliiclc sustained so much damage altogether, that it was found necessary to proenre another coach from this town to proceed 011 the journey to Liverpool. COMPENSATION CLAIMS.— A very important and interesting document has been made up, at the desire of the Lords of the Treasury, by the commis- sioners for investigating the claims for compensation, preferred by parties in consequence of alleged injuries which they sustained by their premises having been taken down, and their trade removed, to make wav for the East India, the West India, and the London Docks. This is a report which sets forth tbe amounts of the claims made for compensation; the names of the claimants; the names of the commissioners bv whom the claims were investigated, and the snms awarded. Tbe very arduous labours of the commis- sioners commenced in 1799, and, with the exception of a few litigated claims, closed in 1824. From the 1,376 awards of tbe commissioners but forty- two appeals were made to juries. In several of these cases they declared that the claimants were entitled to no compensation whatever; to some they gave verdicts for less amounts than had previously been offered to them; several received no larger amounts than the previous awards; and the great majority, with all the aid of professional talent, and the power of eloquence, obtained verdicts for snms nothing like those originally claimed. The total claims amounted to £ 3,705,411. 6s. () Jd. The total sum awarded was £ 677,382. 8s. The money saved to the public, there- fore, amounted to £ 3,280,036. 18s. Ofd. DARING AND ATROCIOUS ROBBERY.— Monday evening, shortly before eight o'clock, a man went into the shop of Mr. Hubbard, gold- refiner, No. 19, Long- acre, and asked to be served with eight grains of fi ne gold. The shopman took down a canister in which gold in pieces is kept for sale by retail, and proceeded to weigh the quantity asked for, at the same time, as has always been his practice keeping one hand cautiously upon the canister. He had finished weighing, and was about putting the gold into paper, when the supposed customer said, " how much have you weighed !" " Eight grains' according to your order," was the reply. " O dear me," said the fellow, " 1 beg your pardon, 1 made a mistake; I was to have asked for twelve grains." At this time there was something iu the manner of the man which made the shopman suspect that he intended wrong, and he kept a tighter hand upon the box, and grumbled somewhat at his not giving the proper order at first. The man again apologized, and the additional four grains was put into the scale and at that moment the fellow took something from under his waistcoat, and discharged a quantity of burning liquid ( afterwards ascertained to'be aqua- fortis) upon the face of the shopman. The agony produced was dreadful, and tbe shopman screamed aloud, at the same time instinctively making an efi'ort to seize the diabolical ruffian; but he eluded his grasp, and snatching up the canister containing the gold made off with it. A mail in the back shop came out ou hearing the young man scream, and he ran into the street in pursuit of the thief, but he disappeared as though by magic. The shopman was iu a dreadful state of suffering, and medical assistance was procured as soon as possible. The skin, wherever the liquid bad fallen, was completely burned through, the hair on the front of the head was removed, and one eye was materially injured. The canister taken away contained about 140 ounces of fine gold, which at the present price of that article may be valued at about £ 680. Informa- tion was immediately sent to. Bow. street of thq atropious outrage, and the police- officers in attend- ance received orders from Sir Richard Birnie to spare 110 puins in endeavouring to trace out the in- human scoundrel. From the description of the fellow, there is no doubt that he is the man who committed a similar outrage some months ago at the shop of Mr. Solomons, a refiner iu the Strand.
