There is Gravel and Free Stone upon the Estate, and it is hardly doubtful that COAL AND IRON may be included in the long List of inviting Proper- ties connected with the Estate. The Markets in the Vicinity are good, and the River Severn approximat- ing upon the Coton Property, gives Additional Facility to the Export of the Produce to distant Markets. There are Corn and Water Mills, and the Inn on the Road midway between Bridgnorth and Kidder- minster is an additional Feature.

His Majesty is not only restored to health, but has evinced such a spirit of firmness, and such a sense of the Conduct which has been practised towards him; as render almost certain the ultimate defeat of the present unconstitutional measure and the dissolution of Parliament. The Wellington Ad- ministration is fast drawing- near its last hour; and it is well, for the honour and dignity of the King, and fhe interests of his insulted Protestant subjects, that it should be so. Cabinet meetings are held daily at the Foreign Office, and oftener in private places. Con- sternation is obvious, and a fatal and melancholy fall await* the Duke of Wellington and the> representative of VVestbury. Neither Sir Thomas Lethhridge, nor Sir Thomas Acland, have the slightest chance of being elevated, as they expected, to , the peerage. The Lord Mayor will ) ui be created a baronet during the present year, tind Mi*. Ward will not represent the city of London during 1830. The situation of the borough of Westburv will be brought under the consideration ot Parliahu'f. t. 011 an early day. The country is now fairly aroused, and at the approaching elecfibri we shall witness more changes than have occurred since the reign of James the Second. The consultations with Sir Henry Halford are the expiring expedients of a desperate combination ; and Offer such an insult to the King as will be noticed and resented by the next Parliament. The Speaker and Mr. Littleton will be raised to the peerage* as we stated about two months ago, the King being pledged, and the patent of the former is Actu- ally engrossed. But Mr. Wynn will not be the new Speaker. Mr. Vesey Fitzgerald left town this morning', for the purpose of being returned to Parliament for the Borough of Newport, in the county of Cornwall, in the room of the Hon. Captain Percy, who has been appointed one of the Aides- de- Camp of the Duke of Northumberland. I11 the House of Commons, the Bill to suspend the Ballot! ing for the Militia, and to make- Reductions in the Militia Staff, was, on the motion of Mr. Ptcl, read a first time this evening. Both Houses of Parliament were principally occu- pied in receiving Petitions, mostly against further further concessions to the Roman Catholics. € t> e Salopian journal. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 18, 1829.

Mr. Williains gives us " Deb per questo," from Mozart's La Clemenze di Tito and Alexis, accompanied by that fine violoncello player,- Mr. Jackson, of Liverpool. The admirers of Mr. Holloway's fine bass voice will be glad to hear that he sings " Non piu andrai," from Figaro, and the Duet, " Grudele perche," with Miss Symonds.

MR. EDITOR, I have been many years a resident and a freeholder in Ireland— that country so long misruled by those whose advantage as Protestants would have been highly advanced had they dfeigtted to . fallow. the footsteps of their enlightened forefathers, and taught the votaries of the Church of Rome, that whilst they might worship God themselves according to their owil views, they should never be' permitted^ .. either opeuly to oppose or secretly to undermine the doc- trines and discipline of the Protestant Faith. The comforts of honest and industrious citizens being fully granted, the power of injuring or insulting o hers ought not to be allowed. Our fathers regarded the Roman Catholics as men M ho had lifted the sword against their lives and privileges— swearing to destroy them and their posterity; and having wrested from the m the sword, they placed them in such a situation as not to be able to grasp it. again; yet, with christian forbearance, left them in the enjoyment of every thing but the power to injure others. Last week 1 left that country, now given up by the guardians of Protestantism to the full and free exercise of infuriate zeal. The sword is again to be given to the enemies of our peace; given to them, not from the spirit of confidence produced by the mild and renovated cha- ri\ r,'. cr for ages manifested, but given from intimidation and alarm, excited by the maniac grow lings and Strugglsngs of fhe subdued foe. What, think you, is likely to be the result ? Will the Protestants of Ireland be contented thus to be placed in jeopardy ? Will they allow themselves to be gagged . by this despotic Bill, covertly designed to stifle the remon- strances of the Protestants, under the pretence of putting down the abominable Association ? Will. ihey remain in that country with the snares of Romish Jesuits ever around them, in terrorem ? No. They will quit. They have declared they will sell their estates, and leave the kingdom for ever t © the Popish domination; and if tlu'y do, let England tremble for her fate; But, Sir, is there no sympathy to be dis- played by English Protestants for their brethren of Ireland ? Because the battle is at the outskirts of the empire, and you hear only the distant roar of the cannon, will you feel no concern in the behalf of those who are defending what our fathers bought with their blood, and bequeathed to us as a sacred and invaluable legacy ? Surely this would be neither kind, nor christian, nor politic. The skirmishers at the outskirts being vanquished, as they miist without your aid, the conquerors will march forward to the inferior, seize the capital, and possess the throne. Then where will your rights, your privileges be? Trampled on by some lordly hireling of the Pope, destroyed by the influence of Antichrist— the enemy of God and of man Up, then, Protestants,— up, and address the King, through the medium of his brother, the Duke of Cumberland, w ho has promised to present to his Majesty every Address forwarded to him. Up, Protestants, up,— and petition the House of Lords instanter.

The point reserved for the consideration of the Court was, whether the Sessions had done right in rejecting the evidence of the parties to an indenture of apprenticeship to prove their own execution, the appellants not having satisfied tlie Sessions, that sufficient diligence hail been used to obtain proof of the hand- writing of the attesting witness, who was not known. The case came on for argument on the 18th ultimo, when the Court said the Magis- trates hail dyne lightly in rejecting the evidence offered, anil therefore affirmed the original order and the ortler in Sessions. John Stacey, aged 20, an apprentice to a barber, has been apprehended on the charge of having murdered Mr. Langstrey and his housekeeper, at Portsmouth, noticed iu our last Journal.— Stacey's father has also been apprehended as an accessary and he has since pointed out the place where upwards of £ 600 stoleu from Mr. Langstrcy's house had been secreted, and which sum has accordingly been covered. The Duke of Newcastle hatl an audience of the King on Wednesday at Windsor. The sudden conversion of Sir Thomas Lethbridg has, we understand, literally astounded many of the freeholders of this county, especially after the earnest recommendation so recently given bj- the Honourable ISaronet himself in favour of parochial petitions against the claims of the Roman Catholics, of which it was understood he was anxious to take the charge. It has been proposed that Sir Thomas should be called upon to resign his situation as Representative for the county.— Hath Herald. A Petition to the King is in the course of rapid signature at Frome, praying his Majesty to dissol the present Parliament. The number of Petitions presented to Parliament against further concessions to the Roman Catholics, amounted to about 1500 on Friday last. Both Houses of Parliament have been principally Occupied during last week in receiving Petitions, chiefly against further concessions to the Roman Catholics. Ill the House of Lords, on Friday, fhe Earl of ELDOB, in alluding to the distinct pledge given in His Majesty's Speech to preserve Protestantism inviolate, s; tid, " it was hit ( l. oril Eldon's), conviction, founded on the means of judging of his Ma jesty's opinion— such as few persons had the happiness to enjoy— that it was his Majesty's determination, in the terms of his Majesty's most gracious Specch, to preserve iiriolate the Protestant Constitution and frame of Government in this country." In the House of Commons, oh Thursday, Mr DAVENPORT obtained leave to bring in a Hill tt extend the power of Magistrates as to summary jurisdiction in case of Juvenile Offenders guilty of larceny; Same day, Mr. WAtimiKTON obtained leave to bring in a bill founded upon the Report of the Com lviittee appointed to inquire into the law relating to Ihe dissection of dead bodies, to legalize and regulate the supply of subjects for anatomy. The object - of ( he measure is to put the anatomical schools iu this country np6n the same footing, as to facilities of pro- curing subjects, as those of France, by providing that persons who die unclaimed in hospitals antl work- houses shall be disposed of to lecturers for a trifling consideration, and the fund created by the sale ap- propriated to defray the expense of interment after each subject shall have undergone anatomical in vestigation. The Committee were fully satisfied that by such means a supply would be provided m< tre than adequate to the wants of the profession. After a few words from Mr. Leycester, Mr. Hyde Villiers, and the Ijird Advocate of Scotland, Mr. Secretary PEEI. observed, that nothing bad occurred to him more un- objectionable in its principle than the measure proposed ; he should therefore support it, and he trusted that no unreasonable objections would be made to it.

WORCESTER.— The business of these Assizes com- menced on Monday morning, before Sir James Alan Park, who presided in ( he Crown Court; when James Hnban alias Charles Clarke, aged 31, and William Nicliolls, aged 21, both very decent looking young men, were tried for breaking into the dwelling house of Mrs. Bridges, at Overbury, on the night of the 18th Oct. aud st< aliug £ 30 in money and a quantity of plate. The prosecutrix, an old lady between 60 and 70, deposed that the first prisoner was related to her, and that when the robbers entered her bed- chamber, they threatened to murder lier if she made resistance in any way. The prisoner Huban de- manded her watch, but she said that, as it was a keepsake, she would never part with it. He then made a blow at her head with the poker, but the other prisoner seized his arm, and prevented him, in this manner ( the lady seized hold of Mr. Watson, the barrister, who happened to be near her, and jerked his arm back, to shew how the thing had occurred ; this caused much laughter). Some of the property was found on the prisoners when taken into custody. The Jury found both prisoners guilty— Judgment of Death recorded. Judgment of death was recorded against 26 other prisoners, convicted of various offences; four were awarded to transportation, 13 ordered io be impri- soned, 13 were acquitted, and against six no bills were found. Mr. Henry Sparrow was tndicfed for wounding Mr. George Cattel Greenway, with an intent to murder him. As soon as the indictment was returned " a true bill" by the Grand Jury, Mr. Sparrow, who had not been previously in custody, surrendered to tahe his trial. Several jurors were challenged by the prosecutor. Mr. Greenway is a respectable solicitor at Warwick ; and having business to transact with the prisoner, went to Stourbridge', arid called upon him at his house there. Some altercation arose between the parlies, when the prisoner seized tlte poker, with which lie struck tire proiefcntiW- most ferociously, wounded him seveMjf'! a" bout the head and brought him to the ground ; aud it was noFtill after all this bad passed that the prisoner's clerk, who was present during the whole time, interfered to prevent further mischief. After Mr. Greenway had given his evidence, the clerk was examined, and swore that the prosecutor struck his master with his list before the latter made use of the poker. The Judge, in summing up, told the Jury, if they believed that the prosecutor struck the first blow; and that there was a conflict between the parties, the prisoner was entitled to an acquittal. The Jury found, first, that they did not think the prisoner meant to kill the prosecutor; but, on the Judge saying, that they must con. iiler whether he intended to do him some grievous bodily harm, they ultimately returned a verdict of Not Guilty.— Subsequent to the trial, the prosecutor preferred a bill against Mr. Sparrow, for aii assault, which the Grand Jury found true; when the Judge recommended an imparlance, and that the case should be settled out of Court. Oil Tuesday, the Grand Jury found a true bill for forger j, against Mr. Hunter, of IVrshore, who sur- rendered himself at the bar as soon as the bill was brought into Court; when Mr. Taunton moved to have the trial put off till next Assizes, upon affidavits of the absence, from illness, of a most material witness. The Court assented, as this was a case aftecting the life of the prisoner ; but, being a capital charge, and the bill found, directed that he should only be suffered to be at large upon finding bail, himself in £ 2000, and four sureties in £ 500 each. The gist of the chargc against Mr. H. is forging a deed, by erasing certain words.— Mr. Campbell, Mr. Sergeant Ludlow, arid Mr. Curwood, are retained for the prosecution ; the fee of the first- named gentleman is understood to have been 100 guineas. - Mr. Taunton, Mr. Sergeant Russell, and Mr. C. Phillips, are retained for the defence. At Nisi Prins, nineteen causes were entered ( only one Special Jury); and of these, seven were disposed of in two hours! The others, which were of no public interest, were all gone through on Wednesday after- noon. At STATFORD the commission was opened by the same learned Judges on Thursday evening. The number of prisoners for trial was nearly one hundred. At Nisi Prius thirty- three causes were entered.

It is now seventeen years since I published my letter to the Bishop of Norwich upon the Catholic Question ; and the subject has occupied my thoughts up to the present period, and I know full well all the turns and bearings upon which this awful point of contention ought to be decided by ; and in my letter to Mr. Peel, in Hilary Term, 1625, ( intituled " The Case of freland Set at I? est./' published fry Riviflgtons and Hatchard, and, I believe, now out of print,) the whole subject of Controversy is brought forward, and com- prised tvithin a small compass ; and if the whole of my advice therein suggested, hid been te ken concerning Cinter alia) " The Catholic Associations'' which was even then clearly shewn to be not merely an unlawful Association— that, in truth, needed no fresh stiltute to put down— but an undoubted, unequivocal, traitorous band of conspirators, amply within the reach, scope, and intendment of the laws of treason, Ireland would at this moment, have been in a state of quiescent obediencc, inslead of undisguised rebellion; and Great Britain would not have had her peace and quiet, and household comfort disturbed, and broken up by ihe ever restless evil spirit of the Sister King- dom. The unanswerable charge against the Roman Catholics of not bearing an entire, concentrated, but only a divided allegiance towards our beloved Sovereign ( anu that only " as far as they may" these are their own Jesuitical words), ought always to be an insuperable bar to their admission to power; for, after all their protestations of fidelity, the pregnant mis- chief is, that they have another King at Home, who, they maintain, is the supreme head of their and our Church, which they hold to be a mere usurpation upon their right and title. Lord Liverpool had the THE G RE JIT TJICTICUX. We lately took occasion, in speaking of our Military Premier, to commend his skill in tactics; and we now acknowledge that, - highly as we thought of his abilities in this way, our notion came far short of his GraceY real resources. His recent1 coup- de- main against the Constitution is a master- piece in diplomacy more perfcct than his. occupation of the Torres Yedras in strategetical affairs; and we venture to . say, tfmt he never exhibited so much slcili in out- inancKit. visring; a foreign enemy, as in lulling the this empire into a false se. c. ur'ty, and so falling Upon th,< jm at his own advantage. „ It is certainly the part of an able General to conceal his movements and intentions from the enemy ; and nipsl unquestionably the Noble Field Marshal has brought with him into the Cabinet all that sort of ability which, ripened by practice ih the field, has so often crowned his brows with victory. Now, were any one to ask, wherefore and against whom has all this skill been expended, a ready answer might be found in the indign; t' language of the R man poet, by the alteration of a syllable two: — Non Ut supeibas'inviiTisfe Carthaginis, acres urevet: Intactus et jJritannus ut descenderet Sacra cater. atus via: Et ut, secundum vota Parthorum, sua Urbs hsec poriret dexte- a.

MY LORD,— It is not a time for his Majesty's loyal and faithful subjects who continue to adhere to our Protestant Establishments in Church and State to sit by and look silently on, while our glorious Constitu- tion, as settled at the Revolution of 1688, is threatened with immediate overthrow and destruction, and the safety and security of our revered Sovereign on the Throne of England, and the douVmiou of his realms, with impending danger to his crown arid dignity ; and, as a Protestant subject, I implore your powerful aid and help, now in the time of our utmost need, to join the great body of Protestants in rallying round the Throne, in the strenuous ami resolved defence of that Constitution which our august Sovereign, as well as ourselves, has solemnly sworn to uphold aud main- tain. There is nothing, 1 fear, that tends so fundamentally to shake the allegiance of the King's subjects at large, as for his Majesty's Government to hold out to the people, one day, the sacred principles of our Consti- tution, as established at the Revolution, to he the undivided object of their veneration and regard, and of their duty in the defence of, and the next day, the direct converse of those principles, anil of that Con- stitution, as if the people of England, " quasi tern/ tes- tate detati," were to obey the winds and waves of the oscillating councils of each succeeding administra- tion or Ihe, " Hoc roteo sic jvbeo" sort of mandate, of a proud imperious Minister, coming down to either House of Parliament, per snltum, with a new, ready- ticketed Constitution in his pocket, for their immedi- ate, unargued adoption, to the total subversion of that Constitution which creates his Majesty's title and claim to the crown, aud forms their very existence. As it is impossible, within the narrow limits of the columns of a newspaper, to enter upon, and conclude the statement and argument upon the great mo- meutous subject of intense interest which now absorbs every thought and faculty of the public mind, I must, in this my first letter to your Lordship, confine myself to Ihe mere setting forth a few of the known and established principles of the Constitution, as pro- pounded, recognized, and settled by the Convention Parliament, and which no legitimate power hut that of a Convention Parliament can annul ; it is a sacred lie and compact, ( according lo ( he well- known maxim of law), which can only be dissolved, " eodtm, ligumine quo ligatur and 1 now proceed to enumerate such first principles of ( he Constitution, as elucidate to demonstration the point in discussion : — First— The constitutional and lawful power of a commonly- assembled Parliament is limited to making, altering, or repealing, the tan s of Ihe land ;— a com- mon Parliament cannot, of ri;; ht, or without breaking the original compact entered into, between them and the people, make, or repeal, or alter the Constitution. Secondly— It is only an especial . Parliament, cre- ated, called, and convened for that express and specific- purpose, that can rightfully make a Constitution: for then the third estate, the people, tire forewarned, and pul upon their guard iu choosing their representatives. '?'!. it! i, ' i'lm ( I ivii I nl it i. and i- f- stri.- ti.- oiu inimi 1.1. Thirdly— The disabilities and restrictions upon his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects, are founded, purely, and expressly, by the Constitution; and not by the laws. Fourthly— The Crown of England, as settled at the Revolution of 1688, by the Convention Parliament, is not, as anterior to that epoch it was, an indefeasible estate of inheritance, but an estate on condition only ; anil that condition consists purely, in the King main- taining the Protestant Ascendancy in Church and State, to the utter and entire exclusion of all Papists from holding any public ofBce, trust, or place of em- ployment, in Church or State, and also from a seat in either House of Parliament. Fifthly— This condition being broken, the estate becomes, ipso facto, forfeited, and descends, by com- mon operation of law, to another Royal House, being Protestants, upon the like condition that the present august family took it. You, my Lor 1, as a sound lawyer, know that I am grounded in the truth and stability of these incon- lestible positions, which, long before Parliament assembled, 1 thought it lny duty, expressly to declare at a public meeting convened for the purpose of Petitioning the King and Ihe Houses of Parliament against any further concessions being granted to his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects; and which sacred principles have since been recognised in Par- liament by al! the ablest constitutional lawyers of both Houses; and had I the high and distinguished honour of one hour's audience of our gracious Sovereign, ( and as a Serjeant at law called by the King's writ mandatory, 1 am already his sworn servant, ad consvlendum,) I would undertake, most, humbly, most dutifully, and most submissively, to demonstrate, over and above the undeniable verity of all the foregoing sacred principles and positions, that » l> eech against the admission of the Roman Catholic Claims, aud I might reasonably have looked for the ingenuousness of some mention of my letter to Mr. Peel, from whence he repeated the whole of my argument on that point, word for word. I shall re- serve for the subject of another letter, the painful consideration of the conduct of those among his Ma- jesty's Ministers who have claimed for themselves all the responsibility of having advised his Majesty to re- commend to Parliament the relieving the Roman Catholics in their Claims, which can only be ac- complished by repealing the whole Constitution, as framed by the Convention Parliament of the Revo- lution of 1688. Each of these Ministers of the Crown has made a brave, and even heroic boast of their bold and dangerous delinquency, ( like Nisus in the line Episode of Maro, and exclaims " Mea fid us omnis" & c.) and seems to claim a sort of parcenary in treason, or something very like it, which they may yet find leisure bitterly to repent of, if another Parliament is called. I can, my Lord, as a faithful subject, only be anxiously solicitous towards the safety and security of our revered and gracious Sovereign, in the ample and undisputed possession and enjoyment of his Throne and Dominion iu these his now undoubted, lawful, and rightful realms; and on the part of ourselves, his loyal and obedient subjects, the full, free, un- fettered, and quiet enjoyment of ;: ll the unalienable rights and privileges which our glorious and blessed Constitution as at present established, so amply affords us; and when we behold your Lordship with the heartfelt concurrence, I trust and believe, of all the Law Lords in that august House of Parliament, over which your Lordship so happily presided in its councils during a large portion of a century, together with that of more than l9- 20thsof the whole body of Protestants of the United Kingdoms, I cannot but confidently hope and trust that our gracious Sove- reign will not hesitate one day longer, to confirm to us all our ancient rights and liberties, privileges, and that Constitution which has placed him upon the Throne, which he has sworn before God and the Country, to maintain inviolate, and which our ancestors purchased with their best blood ; and which we will yet again struggle for with the like sacrifice before we lose it in another massacre of St. Bar- tholomew. And now, Lord Ehlon, I charge you by all the fond hopes and confidence that Protestant Great Britain and Ireland have placed in you, and in their name 1 conjure you that you will forthwith repair unto the presence of our just and benignant Sovereign, who will not, forsake us, but will still continue to follow the footstep* of hia beloved father, our late glorious king and guardian protector, and with the fervour and spirit of a martyr be our Am- bassador to represent our wrongs, and to lay at his Royal feet our rightful claims to his protection from the hands of our enemies; and also this dutiful re- presentation of his great aud fearful danger at this awful crisis, and therein, of the common danger of all the land. This is not a time, my Lord, for conrtly etiquette and ceremony, when the safety and security of our sovereign master and his throne, and our religion, are compassed about with certain destruction, to stay ( he hopes anil wishes, the solicitudes and prayers of his faithful subjects from entering the anti- chamber of the ro\ al presence, to warn him from the pitfall that is digged aud privily laid for him in the path of his footsteps! And if any further fact or argument were wanting to demonstrate the unequivocal denial, on the part of the Roman Catholics, of their allegiance lo the King of England, it ought to be held in ( inextinguish- able remembrance, and blazed abroad upon the tongue of every Protestant in his Majesty's dominions, what is to this day recorded upon the tombs of the unsceptered House of Sluart in the cathedral church of St. Peter at Home, whose cold and silent dust, in marbled state and heraldry, is greeted with the vain titles and fruitless honours in the grave of Charles III and James III.; anil where lies sepulchred in regal pomp and pageantry the body of Cardinal York ( the pensioner of our late munificent Sovereign, of pious, blessed memory) the last Pretender of the Stuart race, with the royal style of Henry IX. King of England. — — Can such things be, And overcome us like a summer cloud, Without our special wonder! — This simple fact, my Lord, speaks volumes, and, it may be, is unknown to the King, as I believe it is to all England, but if it does not bring home conviction to his royal mind, and to every other discerning and well- regulated mind of the universal body of Protest- ants in the land, " neither will they believe though one rose from the dead." These sentiments, my Lord, are not the mere visionary figments of aeriform speculation, nor the facile delusions of a prejudiced and wrongly- biassed mind ; but they are the result of much thought, and mature consideration of passing events: and a strong sense of public duty has impelled me to stand forth and renew my labours in the defence of that Constitu- tion in Church and State, which we have all sworn equally to defend—( he Sovereign as well as the Peasant; when that, is wrested from us, all is lost, and the country will not be worth living in '.— Com- mending these mournful thoughts to your Lordship's candid consideration, 1 remain with great regard and veneration, your faithful humble servant, March bth, 1829. WILLIAM FIRTH. Herrles, J C. Hill, Lord Hill, Sir G. Hobhouse, J C. Hodgson, Fred. Horton, 11. IV. Howard, Henry Caltliorpe, lion. F. Howick, Vis. Administration, seemed to crown him in public estimation as the Protestant champion. It is well known that previous to this, the Field Marshal was anything hut popular either with the army or the people. But his avowed principles, as contradis- tinguished from Mr. Canning's, won him " golden opinions from all sorts of men,'' and his triumphant procession to the North of England' during hi. I antagonist's government, must have spoken to him " truiopet- totigued," use the military metaphor,) for what cause, and for what, purpose, lie had been selected by the people, and miide, as it- weror u the God of their idolatry." But there was a large stake for which the victbr'of a thousand fields was playing a deeper game, in which he was probably, at that moment, engaged. It had been long known, artd openly proclaimed, that a Whig, of pro- Popery, Cabinet could never gratify the Popish demands. It had as ojienly been known, and told, that none but Protestant hands could open the gates of the Constitution, and betray it to the enemy. Mr. Canning had declared that he could not, and would not, attempt to carry the Popish question, because the people were against it, and aicate of him. But ihe question was to be carried, and by nOne but a Protestant could it be done. Who was tiie man ? It was said by the friends of " emancipation" at the time, that the Duke of Wellington was the only man in England that could do it; and accordingly, NN. N MARSHAL THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON WAS THE MAN CHOSEN TO SUCCEL TL MR. CANNING, AN II • FD KFRI'. CT THE OVERTHROW OF T'HK PROTESTANT CONSTITUTION IN CHURCH ASH STATE. Never was a piece' of treachery better devised or more artfully conducted. The Commander- in- Chief of the Cabinet ruled a divided empire with a single voice, and that his own-: but the majority of his tools was professedly Protestant. This lulled the nation at the outset. Shortly after the formation of the Cabinet, three of the most powerful friends of Popery were ousted from his Majesty's Councils: this deepened the national confidence. In the debate upon the Roman Catholic claims which shortly ensued, the Chief, with the principal of his staff, declared in the most positive terms against them, and the empire was rocked into a profound repose. It happened, however, that a shyrji- shoofer. whether with or without orders we cannot say, ad- vanced beyond the lines, and taking his station within the walls of the maiden fortress, discharged a shot which alarmed the slumbering Protestants. Instantly they were on their feet; and from one end of Ireland to the other, and in most parts of England and Wales, they stood on the defensive, and kept watch and ward. Here was a ferment fatal to the General- in- Chief's purpose, and it must be soothed The Protestants must be thrown off ( heir guard. A proclamation against the common enemy appeased the angry hum of the disturbed camp. This was followed by the disgrace of certain offending Magis- trates : the letter to Dr. Curtis was a further soporific: the recall of the Marquis of Anglesey heightened the charm : the appointment, of the Duke of Northumberland almost sealed the watchful eyes of the Constitutionalists; and the manner in which the declaration or petition of " certain Pro- testants in favour of what are called the Catholic claims," and " tin boj:" in which it was packed, was acknowledged as having come to hand, brought down the delusion to the very latest moment that the plan required. The meeting of Parliament dissolved the whole charm. A Hill had been in preparation since August last, to surrender the Constitution to its direst enemies. Never was there, we firmly believe, a1' tnorei Con- summate piece of treachery practised since the work) begun: never so gratuitous a treason towards the people of any nation. There were times, indeed, when, from the supineness of Protestants, Ministers might complain that they had no alternative but to " surrender." At this crisis the whole population of ( ireat Britain, and all Ihe loyalists of Ireland, were at the back of the Protestant Minister who should uphold the Protestant Institutions of the country, and ready to " buckler him against the w orld." But such was not the design of the Minister— and ( lie Protestants of this empire, together wilh the Consti- tution in Church and State, are, iu the proverbial language of the day, BOUGHT AND SOLD.

PREROGATIVE COURT.— Mr. Farquhar's IF U — Sir John Nicholl gave judgment on Wednesday, in this important case, ( he decision in which affects property to a greater amount than in any suit that has come before the Court for many years. The particulars of ( he case have been fully before the public, the facts are as follows:— Mr. Farquhar died suddenly on 5th July, 1826, leaving behind him property amounting to between 6 and £ 700,000. After his death, no will could be found ; consequently administration was granted to the next of kin, seven nephews and nieces. Nearly twelve months aftei this, a copy of a will was received by Mr. Colvin, from India, which had been executed by Mr. Farquhar before he left that country. I11 this will ( lie deceased, after bequeathing two annuities of £ 500 each, gave the residue of his immense property to the promotion of education in Scotland. The present suit was instituted to try the validity of such will. On the part of the next of kin it was contended, ( hat the deceased having destroyed the will of which the one now propounded was only a copy, it, was his intention to destroy the copy. On behalf of the executor, it was alleged that deceased did not destroy the will himself, but that it was destroyed by some of the relatives. The Learned Judge, after going thro' the case, concluded by declaring it to be the opinion of the Court., that the testator, by destroying the copy of the will in his possession, meant, also to cancel ( lie one in India ; the judgment of the Court, therefore, was, ( hat Mr. Farquhar died intestate. With respect to costs, the Court at present would make no order. Both Houses of Parliament were, 011 Tuesday and Wednesday, nearly wholly occupied iu receiving Petitions, principally against further concessions to the Roman Catholics. The Emancipation Bill was read pro forma, ( he first time, on Tuesday night, in the House of Commons. On the question for its reading being- put, Mr. CRESSETT PELHAM said, such a Hill could not pass without a direct violation of the Constitution of 1688. IMPORTANT DECISIONS.— ITI the Couniy Court, Kiugsgatc- street, Holborn, last week, two cases were heard, the decision of which cannot be too generally known. The first related to a practice that would certainly be " more honoured in the breach than in ( he observance." The parent • of an ex- pupil summoned the Conductress of a Seminary for the value Cor the production J of a silver spoon, knife, forh, and towels, which had been furnished on entering the school. The restoration of these articles was resisted by the defendant, on the ground of long- established and universal custom. The Court, how ever, would not entertain such defence, and strongly reprobated the practice, which it denounced as mean and highly discreditable to the reputation of respect able establishments. Had the claim been set up as a perquisite in favour of ( he servants, who were generally deserving of consideration, it would have been much less ohjectionab'e. The defendant was advised to discountenance the custom in future by an alteration in her terms. ' 1 he articles were eventually produced and handed over to the plaintiff, Ihe mistress of the school paying the expenses of the application.— The second case was that of a servant ( who had engaged herse'f as cook to a lady J summoning her mistress for a month's wanes. The demand was resisted on the ground of insolcn^ cpPjluc't and repeated acts of disobedience, which Jta'd at lciigth become so intolerable as to render the discharge oft he. servant at the end of ten days absolutely necessary( The amount of wages up to the time of leaving was tendered to her, and refused. The Court, in its admonitory remarks to the servant, shewed the degree of credit which it attached to the statements of the mistress, who was directed to pay the amount originally tendered, and the servant to pay the costs.

The measure brought forward by Mr. Peel has, our readers are fully aware, been carried in the House of Commons by a majority of 3- 18 to 160. To some, such a majority may seem large : but. to those who have attended to the recent acts and mode of construction of what is termed the House of Com- mons of Great Britain and Ireland, it will he 110 matter of surprise. The Radical Reformers, as they were called, were defeated in their efforts, because their revolutionary intentions were not only apparent but avowed, and because all the parties concerned were notorious. The Reform— that is, the Revolution will now be attempted by another mode ; anil, as a just retribution for disregard of national mercies and religious institutions unparalleled in any other age or country, it will, if now carried into effect, ( which may Heaven avert!) be the work of King, Lords, and Commons, to lay the foundation of the incipient British Republic! If the proposed measure passes into a law, what possible interest can 99 in every 100 Protestants have in supporting tbe Monarchical Institutions of the Country. Their feelings will have been derided— their petitions scouted— their Religion degraded— and their privileges trodden under foot— by a ma- jority of the House of Lords and by a majority of the House of Commons; and that Sovereign, at whose nod hundreds of thousands of as brave men as ever stood upon British ground would have freely shed the last drop of their blood, will have been deluded into ( he first step towards tbe dissolution of that com- pact by which alone he and his ancestors have pos- sessed a title to the Throne on w hich he is seated. Truly did the great and venerable Lord Eldon say, that whenever Roman Catholics were admitted info the Legislature, from that hour would the sun of Britain's glory be set. Too long, indeed, has the Parliament ceased to protect British interests. Crowded as the one House is with jobbing Jews and with jobbing Gentiles, with professors of modern liberalism, of experimental legislation, and of political economy— and short- sighted as are many in the other House, that are lending their willing aid to the de- signs of the parties above enumerated— those who have narrowly watched passing events, will not be surprised that a Legislature which one year repealed the Combination Laws, and in the next re- enacfed them— which, in its rage of liberalism, forgot that liberality, without reciprocity, was foolery, and thus gave to one foreign nation our glove trade and our silk trade— to other foreign nations our wool trade- to this foreigner one branch of our commercf, and to that foreigner another: such persons, wc say, when they see tens of thousands of our artisans starving, and thousands of our woolgrowers and manufacturers tottering to ruin, that foreigners may grow rich at our expense, will not be surprised when a measure shall emanate from the same source, by which foreign Priests and their idolatrous worship shall be allowed free course in ( lie British Empire— by which False- hood and Truth are to sit in unhallowed compact, and with equal honour, on the same seat— and by which the people of England are, as from the Throne itself, to be told, that w hat were heretofore considered the abominations of the Christian world, are meet associates for that " pure and undeliled Religion," once the glory, as it has for nearly three centuries been the safeguard, of our country. The only sur- prise is, that in addition to these measures of the Legislature, so many of its members, on whom the country relied, should, by an example of apostacy unparalleled, have run with greediness into that net of modern liberalism, in the meshes of which they will eventually be involved beyond the power of extrication,— unless their countrymen, who have vet more regard for their own interests than to desert them because they have been attempted to be basely betrayed, should make an effort for their preservation, and in that effort secure not only those interests, but save also the would- be traitors from the effects of their intended treason. To such an effort we would exhort our countrymen; and we again urge upon every true Protestant the necessity that now exists for an appeal to the Throne itself, in order to save ( he Sovereign and the Country frum the suicidal acts of the Ministry and the Parliament. Amongst the numerous excellent speeches and pnblicaiions which have been made and published during the discussion of this all- engrossing subject, not one has appeared to us of greater importance/, or more deserving of attention than the Letters of Lord Redesdale to Lord Colchester. From the ninth of these letters, we cannot omit to insert the following extracts, which contain forebodings W awful and so distinctly expressed, and which, coming from such an experienced and honest Statesman, one also who in Parliament has at different times advocated the repeal of many Roman Catholic disabilities so strongly and so successfully, cannot fail to deserve and obtain the sober attention of every friend to his country :— " That separation qf Ireland from Great Britain is the object of the Catholic Association, has been openly avowed by some of Iheir leaders; and the foreign contributions to the Catholic rent, and those coming from tbe exiled Irish rebels, demonstrate ( hat the separation of Ireland from Great Britain is the ultimate object of their friends abroad. The Measures proposed by his Majesty's Ministers' appeaf to me calculated to forward this object. They must render Ireland wholly lloman Catholic; at least, render the Protestants in Ireland, if any shall remain there, the slaves of Roman Catholic tyranny. Those Protestants, indeed, who may cling to their property and remain in Ireland may be the allies of Great Britain in a war with the itomatr Catholics of Ireland; a war which I think the measures proposed by the ministers will certainly produce, though tliey profess that the object of their measures is to avoid such a war. Permanent peace they cannot produce, bccause they will give strength for further claims. All which they can produce will be a hollow truce; " a sullen interval of war." Should those measures be carried I shall no deprecate the separation of Ireland from Great Britain; for, if Ireland should become what I think it must become if those measures should be carried, separation from Ireland can alone preserve the Pro- testant Constitution and Protestant establishments in Great Britain. I think that, by tbe adoption of the measures proposed by his Majesty's ministers, the influence of the Roman Catholic religion in Ireland ( Ireland remaining united with Great Britain, as one kingdom, with one parliament, assisted by foreign influence in support of the Roman Catholic religion in this country, and by the liberality of modern politicians) will speedily remove every obstacle to the establishment of Roman Catholic ascendancy in this country— will repeal the law which compels the Prince on the throne to be Protestant; and it seems to me that that prince, whatever his religious opinions may really be, must ( if the two islands shall then remain united) abdicate the throne, or be compelled, like Henry the Fourth of France, to profess the Roman Catholic religion, that he may be able to govern the ennnlrv with tlio ,1 it+. inr-.. nf Dm tt/ im.,,. r"'-. I!...!;.• country with the assistance of the Roman Catholic faction— a faction already powerful in this country. This faction will then be assisted by Irish Members in the two Houses of Parliament, professed Roman Catholics, and by those who w ill be compelled, for the safety of their property, to profess also the Roman Catholic religion, as many of the Protestants of France, after the defection of Henry tbe Fourth, were com- pelled to profess the Roman Catholic religion to preserve their rank, their property, and political influence. Thus, by degrees, the prevalence of the Roman Catholic religion in Ireland, and the prevalence of the liberal opinions now fashionable throughout Great Britain, with the assistance of the Jesuits and other religious orders— which will swarm in Great Britain, imported from every Roman Catholic country in Europe where the governments are jealous of their influence— will obtain for the Roman Catholics the superiority in the legislation ; and the Protestants in Great Britain will be reduced to the condition of the Hugonots in France under the government of Louis the Fourteenth. The united kingdom will then have — A Roman Catholic King; A House of Lords, of whom the majority will be Roman Catholics, with Roman Catholic instead of Protestant bishops; and A House of Commons, of which a large majority will be Roman Catholics; and the greater part of those who may still profess the Protestant religion will be wholly under the dominion of Roman Catholic influence. The ministers of the crown will then be all Roman Catholics: or so much under Roman Catholic in- fluence that the government will be, in spirit, wholly Roman Catholic. To save Great Britain from the misery of Roman Catholic slavery, 1 would rather vote, immediately, for the separation of Ireland from Great Britain ( stipulating for the Protestants of Ireland upon the best terms which I could obtain for them) than vote for the measures proposed by his Majesty's Ministers. I am convinced that those who value the interest of Protestant Great Britain, ought to prefer separation from Ireland to submission to Roman Catholic dominion, which, for its own preservation, will probably become more than mere dominion. It will- possess the character of the Roman Catholic church — despotic tyranny. So much for the business of yesterday— to me a subject of melancholy reflection and foreboding." As we have repeatedly observed, the contemplated change in the system of Government cannot stop with Catholic Emancipation— it must proceed, and will probably lead to a Reform in Parliament, and a separation of the Church from the State. The pro- posed measure has already worked important changes in the minds of men, and converted some of ( he most decided Tories into Parliamentary Reformers. The Earl of Winchilsea observed, on Tuesday night, in the House of Lords, " ( hat with respect, to Parlia- mentary Reform, whatever doubts he formerly held upon ( hat question, he confessed that late events had completely removed them, and he now told the Noble Earl ( Grey), that whenever he brought forward a measure for Parliamentary Reform he should have Lis most c irdial and hearty support. As long as the representation of the country was in the hands of honourable and independent men, in his opinion no evil could be anticipated, but rather good ; but when he saw what had been the conduct of those who had been possessed of close boroughs— when he saw them sacrificing their principles, in order that, they might be able to patch up fortunes which had been broken and ruined by their vices— he had no hesitation saying, let honest people hare the representation which these have so grossly abused." The reported capitulation of Tournoul to the Russian force, under General Langeron, has been confirmed. The Turks are said to have lost, in three weeks, 3500 men and 28 pieces of cannon. The Russian forces are assembling along the line of the Danube, for the purpose of clearing both banks of ( hat river, before the operations at the foot of the Balkan are commenced. On the other hand the Miliar! is not idle. His preparations are said to be 011 the most extensive scale, and his personal activity indefatigable. A force of 40,000 men and 3000 seamen are reported to be on their route from Egypt to Constantinople. The affairs of Greece remain still unsettled, but the disposition of the Porte to admit on certain terms the mediation of England and France, remains unaltered.

That the Militia is one of the oldest consti- tutional establishments of this country, is a fact too well authenticated to require any observation. That the Militia service during the last war was widely different from any former war, was fully evinced by the service in Ireland, anil by the repeated volun teering to the line. Lord Castlcreagli, in his speech during the debates in Parliament, in 1814, observed, " The Militia had already supplied an assistance of 100,000 men to the army, and that the success of the whole contest hinged on the exertions which this reinfiircement enabled us to make. Parliament ought always, therefore, to bear in mind, that it is to the Militia we owe the character which we at pre ent enjoy in Military Europe." The scale of reductions lately issued from the War Office, is found to bear particularly hard upon the Officers of the Staff, intended to be reduced ; but as the subject is to undergo the investigation of Parliament, the same good faith, we trust, will be maintained towards the officers of the Militia, as to those of the regular army. It is stated, in an article from Smyrna, that General Guilleminot, the French ambassador, had, with exemplary humanity, procured the liberation of 150 Turkish prisoners, who bad been in tbe hands of the* Greeks, and conveyed them in a French frigate to Smyrna, where they were delivered to Hussein PachaV OAK TIMBER.— The Quarterly Review contains information of much importance to plauters anil surveyors of timber. It states that there are two distinct species of oak in England, the Quercus Robur, and the Qvercus Sessiliflorus ; the former of which affords a close- grained, firm, solid timber ; the other more loose and sappy, very liable to rot, and not half so durable. The second species is supposed to have been introduced some two or three ages ago, from the Continent, where the oaks are chiefly of this latter species, especially in the German forests, the timber of which is known to be very w orthless. But what is of more unportanco to us, is, that, de facto, the impostor abounds, and is pro- pagated vigourously in the New Forest and other parts of Hampshire, in Norfolk, and the northern counties, and about London; and there is but too much reason to believe that the numerous complaints that were heard about our ships being attacked with what was called, improperly enough, dry rot, were owing to the introduction of this species of oak into our naval dock- yards, where the distinction was not even suspected. It may thus be discriminated from the true old English oak : the acorn stalks of the Robur are long, and its leaves short; whereas the Sessiliflora, has the acorn stalks short, and the leaves long ; the acorns of the former grow singly, or seldom two on the same foot- stalk ; those of the latter in clusters of two or three close to the stem of the branch. We believe the Russian ships of the Baltic, that are not of larch or fir, are built of this species of oak ; but if this were not the case, their exposure on the stocks, without cover, to ( he heat of summer, . which though short is excessive, and the rifts and chinks which fill up with ice and snow in the long winter, are enough to destroy the stoutest oak, and quite sufficient to account for their short- lived duration. In severe Colds, Rheumatism, & c. from which numbers suffer so severely, particularly during the Winter Months, a more salutary Remedy cannot be resorted to, or one that has effected more extra- ordinary Cures, than the Genuine Balcmar's rectoral Drops, which may be had of most respectable Medi- cine Ycnderti either in Town or Country. Like many other valuable Medicines, however, it is very much counterfeited, which renders it the more necessary for Purchasers to be particular in enquiring for " DICF. Y'S IJatemnn's Drops" which have the words DICEY & Co. in the Stamp, aud are the only genuine sort. We deem it necessary to caution ( he public against a set of very accommodating gentlemen, who send circular letters, offering their services in negotiating loans anil accepting bills, taking goods, in short, doing every possible and reasonable thing in their peculiar line of business to furnish what is termed accommodation, but which those who are so simple as to avail themselves of their offers, will ultimately find to be attended with very unaccommodating results. We hope all whom the above caution may concern, will take the hint, or they will have cause to repent when too late, their want of prudence in not amending to our advice.
