G EORg1T*" rOB I NS has the gratification to announce, that he has been honoured by the Instructions of the respected Propri- etor to offer for SALE by AUCTION", at the Mart, iu London, on THURSDAY, the 29th of October, at Twelvfe oXMock, and peremptorily, in Three Lots, THE FONTHILL ESTATE, WHICH INCLUDES ITS BEAUTIFUL PARK* EXTENSIVE FARMS AND MANORS, SPLENDID LAKE, AND LUXURIANT WOODS AND PLANTATIONS. The high renown which this Property has acquired, and the early associations connected witb this almost sacred and classic ground, very fortunately prevents the necessity of a lengthened description, or the writer of this imperfect sketch would approach the Herculean task in fear and trembling.. 1- onthill is, however, so well known, and its transcendant beauties so thoroughly appreciated, that it would partake of the work of supererogation tp do more than briefly suggest a few of the lending features. THti ELEGANT PAVILION, ON THE BANK OF AN EXTENSIVE LAKE, Is of recent creation ; it partakes of the Italian villa, is erected of stone, aud presents a uniform building of a very imposing character • it is seated in the centre of a Park, which, for its varied beauties, will not yield to any one in England; there is 60 much variety, such an infinity of hill and dale, of wood and water, relieved by hollow glens and hanging woods, rising in majestic grandeur, and towering one above the other, each contending in open rivalry for the doubtful prize. The far- famed Waters, which it will hardly be accounted treason to denominate THE MINOR LAKE OF GENEVA* And, from its extent, leaves Virginia Water at an immeasurable distance, abounds with fish of every description— its depth and extent might be useful with a view to mature and assist the nautical tactics of the Yacht Club. The famous Baths, erected by Inigo Jones, form its termination in one direction; and at the other, are the celebrated Clothing Mills, shut out from public view by means of the luxuriant Woods. In the Park and Domain are rides and walks of seven miles in extent, ornamented by every thing that ingenuity and good taste could devise— not for- gfltino the Hermitage, the ancient rocks and ruins, the subterraneous passages and caverns, the imper- vious thickets, and, though'Isist not least, " THE ALPINE GARDENS, Which gradually recline upon the Lake. In short, if Elysium can be contemplated upon earth, Fonthill may unhesitatingly claim it. The grounds are carried to the utmost extent of bold and varied simplicity. The union of the Garden and the Grove is almost - universal, and clearly indicative of the care with which its scenery has been Created and almost matured by its tasteful possessor. There are abundant coverts to protect the rambler from the influence of the sun ; and the " effects of light and shade give the. utmost pos- sible richness to the broad masses of hanging wood and the constant bursts of the distant landscape. The security, and consequent fearlessness, of the feathered tribe, and the- most timorous of the animal creation, iu the unfrequented woods of this earthly paradise, has been very accurately painted by the great Father of English Poetry, and will probably be in the recollec- tion of the reader. In the glen beneath the Terrace are the Cottages of Fonthill Gilford, crouching under the splendid woods of the princely domain to which they belong, and presenting their tranquil simplicity and unpretending neatness as a pleasing contrast to the- magnificent scene by which thev are surrounded. THE FRUIT AND VEGETABLE GARDENS OCCUPY A SPACE OK TEN ACRES. The situation has been judiciously selected, and the lofty walls that surround them give ample shelter from " the wintry winds. Commendation has long since ex- hausted itself in the attempt to panegyrise the fertility aud beauty of these far- famed Gardens. The Hot aud Succession Houses, erected upon the best principle, are 220 feet long. THE iBBEY GROUNDS AND VENERABLE RUINS OF FONTHILL, Which approximate upon the Park ( although not in tended to be sold), will be open to the visitors of Font- hill, and complete the splendid landscape* THE DOMAIN 1NCLUDI S ABOUT TWELVE HUNDRED ACRES OF LAND, Including the Lawn Farm, of 100 Acres ( which will form a separate Lot), and the celebrated Clothing Mills ( erected at an expense exceeding £ 20,000), will be the Third Lot.

At that time the Sultan was so con- fident that peace would be the result of the negocia- tiousat Adrianople, that the Asiatic troops which bad heen driven in hy tbe approach of the'Eussians, as well as those which formed part of the garrison, bad 6een sent home. Great numbers of tbe Russian pri- soners had also been set at liberty. Though the capi- tal is stated to have been quiet at the date of these dispatches, it had been found necessary to behead s me troublesome subjects, among whom was Humid Aga, Con mander of the Coast of the Black Sea, on suspicion of treasonable designs. The accounts from Adrianople were to the 2d inst. Count Pahlen, the Russian Negotiator) arrived there on the preceding tlay, and hopes were entertained that the preliminaries of peace would be signed on the 10th. Previously to the arrival of fhe Plenipo tentiaries at Adrianople, detachments of Russian troops had been pushed to a considerable distance on the road to Constantinople The Paris papers received on Saturday morning, not only contradict a report that the armistice in the East had been suddenly broken, and that the Rus- sians hud occupied Constantinople! but on the con- trary annotince the arrival of dispatchcs from the french Minister, Gen. Guilleminot, dated the 30th till, confirming the intelligence received through Sir R. Gordon's last dispatchcs to this country. The late conspiracy in the Turkish capital originated with a remnant of the Janissaries, and their object was the. dethronement and murder of the Sultan, and the mas- sacre of the Europeans. The seizure and immediate execution of the ringleaders, and the exposure of their heads On the w alls of the seraglio, had the effect of at once overawing the maleontents and preventing an explosion. The removal of the Asiatic troops from Constantinople appears to have been connected W illi the suppression of the conspiracy. Dispatches from Sir Robert Gordon, dated Constan- tinople, the 5th instant) were received last night at the Foreign Office. M. De Kuster, confidential Secretary to General Muffling, had returned to the Turkish capital from Adtianople, and General Muffling had embarked from Constantinople for Genoa. Some further details are given of the conspiracy 8mong the Janissaries and their party, tbe object of Which Was to dethrone the Sultan. Many nf the conspirators had been put to death, and it was Expected that more woftld suffer. Sanguine hopes were entertained that the in'siiYreclionary movements ftad been entirely suppressed'by the decisive conduct of ( he Governnieent. Accounts have also been received from Adrianople, slating that a body of Russian troops had been sent to occupy Enos, in order to open a communication with the Russian feet cruising near the Dardanelles. It Vras supposed at Adrianople that the Treaty would be signed by the T. lfh instant, it being understood that all the pbihls had been Settled between the Plenipo- tentiaries, with the exception of that relating to the Indemnities claimed by Russia, upon which a reference to Constantinople was necessary. A French courier, coming from Constantinople, reported tfiat he'met the advanced posts of the Russian army within sixty miles of that capital.

BIRMINGHAM < jw » swodm wmmimiLv October 6, 7, 8, and 9, UNDER THE ESPECIAL PATRONAGE OF THE KING. Our information from Birmingham confidently assures us that the most signal success will attend this great approaching Festival. The very ample accom- modations, both public and private, provided by the inhabitants, are rapidly engaging j and though at this moment the number of families wbo have already announced their intention of being present is far greater than has been recollected 011 a similar occa- sion, abundant accommodation remains and may at any moment be obtained on terms exceedingly fair and reasonable. In addition to the many noble and distinguished persons who are expected to honour the meeting by their attendance, the extreme novelty and richness of the scheme have induced several eminent and well known professors of music to signify their intention of attending as auditors. The plan, now first adopted by the Committee, of securing places in tbe Chancel Galleries of Ihe Church, as well as at the Theatre, appears to be very generally approved, and several parties have already taken advantage of the facility of access thus afforded them. The publication of the general scheme enables us to remark upon two or three features of the earlier performances. The Composition of Beethoven, in- troduced into the Anthem on the first morning ( Tues- day), is to be accompanied by a choir of eight trom- bones, and is expected to produce a magnificent effect.— The first Evening's Selection is rich in Operatic Music. It will open with a portion of La Gazza I. adra, in which Mademoiselle BF. ASIS, Signor DE BEGNIS, and Signor GlUHlI. MI, will sustain the prin- cipal characters. A Scena from the Opera of Cerentotu, by Miss FANNY AYTON and Signor COSTA; and tbe last act of Uomeo et Guit. etta, in character, by Madame MALIBRAN, M iss FANNY AYTON, and Chorus will also he introduced. Other Scenas, Con- certos by Mrs. ANDERSON on the Piano- forte, arid M. DE BI RIOT 011 the Violin, will likewise form part of the performance.— The Wednesday Morning's Selection, at the Church, in novelty and grandeur will be unexampled, and cannot but attract a crowded attendance. The Cantata Sacra, composed and presented to the Charity by ZINGAREI. I. I ; a Trio ( Canon) by Neukomm ; an Aria ( Contralto) of Cheru- liinCs, to be sung by Madame MALIBRAN; a " tiomine Dens" of Mozart, by Signor COSTA, are all new, and will be performed for the first time in t'lis country. The Oratorio of " Gideon," by Winter ; the " Tod Jesu," by Graun; a Motet of Ilorseley, and Airs and Choruses of Handel, Mozart, and other great masters, will also be introduced. The remain- ing Selections present a like concentration of the finest music, ancient anil modern, and numerous beauties ini^ lit be pointed out, did time and oppor- tunity permit. We stated in our last Journal, that Thomas Dairies, keeper of the Shelton Gate 011 the Pool Road, had been convicted before the Magistrates in penalties and costs to the amount of £ 4. 7s. 6d. for illegally taking toll twice and detaining a vehicle IMI the last day of the Races ; and we further noticed that other inform- ations against the toll collectors were to be heard yesterday before the Magistrates. These informations came on for hearing accordingly The first case was that of Mr. William Thomson, of Preston Gubbals, against Janus Flatt the lessee of the tolls Mr. T homson Mated* that having paid the toll for the horse on w hich he rode to the race- course on Thursday, he, on bis return after tbe races, over- took a neighbour, Miss Kilhaoi; they rode towards the gate, and Miss Killiam passed through ; Mr. Thomson theu gave his ticket to Jaines Piatt, on ] which Piatt demanded that Mr. Thompson should pay for the lady that had gone through. Mr. Thorn-' son said the lady was not in his company, and he would not pay for her; on which Piatt seized Mr T.' s pony, took hold of Mr. T.' s leg, and attempted to uuhorse him ; this he nearly effected, and in doing so also took off one of the stirrups, which was fastened by a spring. Mr. T. said, that to avoid further contest, he gave Piatt 6d. and then asked for the stirrup. Piatt gave h'un no change, aud, cursing and swearing violently, refused to give him the stirrup. Mr. Thomson turned his horse, follow- ing Piatt towards the toll- house, to ask for the stirrup, on which Piatt took hold of the bridle, Ihe animal reared, and backing Some distance fell on his haunches, and thence down, throwing- Mr. Thomson off. Mr. Thomson said he was quite sober ut the time. Mr, Thomas Jones, who was passing along the load at Ihe time, confirmed Mr. Thomson's testi- mony. He deposed to seeing Piatt attempt to unhorse Mr, T. and to his using violent language; while ou the contrary Mr. Thomson, who was p fectly sober, addressed Piatt in the most civil terms. Mr. Jones afterwards, at the request of Miss William's bt other, took a ticket to Piatt to shew that the toll had been paid for that lady's hoi.- 6 in the morning; he then asked for the stir- rup, but Piatt refused to give it up. Mr. Thomas Oare stated that he was present when fir. Thomson paid the toll on going to the course ; and Mr. John Alltree depose d to the fact of Plan's violence to Mr. Thomson, as proved by Mr. Jones. Edward Leah, n toll collector, said he was pre- sent at the scuffle ; he did not see any money paid by Mr. Thomson ; nor did he see any attempt made by Piatt to ufihorse Mr. T. nor drd he make any suth attempt; he saw tbe stirrup fait down, aud it was thrown into the toll- house : he had no connexion with Piatt ; he only stood there to sec tlielr system 6f collecting; Leah said, if Mr. Jones hud sworn that Piatt took hold of Mr. Thomson's leg, he bad sworn falsely; and that Mr. Thomson was full in liquor. Mr. Thomson and Mr. Jones reiterated their former statement ; and Mr. Altree; " on his oath" ( the question being So put by Plan's solicitor), said u Piatt used unnecessary violence." For this violence Piatt was accordingly convicted iu the mitigated penalty of 40s. and the costs. The next case was that of Mr. William Stead against James Plait, for an assault: Piatt also had an information against Mr. Stead, for obstructing him in the execution of bis duty. It appeared that Mr. Stead, with others,- interfered to prevent Piatt ill- treating, as they conceived^ a boy who had given him some offence; an altercation took place; Mr. Stead was clearly assaulted, but at the same time amply repaid his assailant The Magistrates were of opinion this case originated in misapprehension as to the boy's conduct and treatment; aud dis- missed the inlormations on each side. The information of James Piatt against Mr. Samuel Griffiths, innkeeper, was next brought forward.— Piatt stated, that ou the Wednesday evening in Ihe Race Week, Mr. Griffiths rode up to the gate, and without offering' ticket or money, and before Piatt could utter a word, struck him with a stick. Piatt theu took Mr. Griffiths and his horse into the house, and detained them until Mr. A. Pearson stated who Mr. Griffiths was, and where he lived. Mr. Griffiths being called upon, said, that when he came within seven or eight yards of the gate, he had the ticket iu his hand ; Piatt, at that distance, took hold of the bridle of the horse, and suddenly checking the auihial, he ( Mr. G ) was nearly thrown off, and in endeavouring to recover himself dropped the ticket; he lifted his slick, but before he could strike with it, Piatt struck him in the face; Piatt and his assistants then dragged him from his horse and took him and the animal into the toll- bouse. Mr. Brown said he was by the gale when Mr. Griffiths rode up; ou his approaching within seven or eight yards of the gate, Piatt took hold of the horse's bridle; 011 which Mr. Griffiths lifted his stick, but before he could strike with it, Piatt struck hiin in the face; a scuffle took place; Piatt and his assistants polled Mr. Griffiths down, and took him and the horse into the house ; witness ob- served to the gatekeepers that they were behaving in a rascally manu'er, 011 which Piatt collared him ; witness had just before seen Piatt stop another gentleman in a similar way, who observed to Piatt that he was acting wrong, and that in so doing he was guilty of unlawfully stopping people on the King's highway. Mr. Chclmick, who rode towards the gale at the same time with Mr. Griffiths, proved that Mr, Grif- fiths then had the ticket iu bis hand. The Mayor dismissed Plait's information ; and said there could be no question that the gatekeepers had acted very inteniperately. An information, on the complaint of Mr. Charles Lloyd, against John Roberts, one of Plait's assist- ants, was theu brought forward ; but on Roberts publicly acknowledging that he bad acted exireine- ly wrong towards Mr. Lloyd, and 011 his paying the expenses, and paying 5s. to be given in bread to tbe poor, the complaint was not pressed. The last case was of a very aggravated nature: it was a charge preferred by Mrs. Hughes, landlady of the Dolphin, against James Piatt, for a gross assault, lu this case Piatt made his peace by paying 15s. to Mrs. Hughes's witnesses; together with the other expenses; 011 which Mrs. Hughes, with a feeling of consideration that did her the greatest credit, abstained from further proceedings. ALL Persons having any Demands on the Estate and Efl'ects of EDWARD HUGHES, late of SHREWSBURY, Esquire, deceased, are requested to send a Statement of the same to me ; and ail Per- sons who stand indebted to the Estate of Mr. Hughes, are requested to pay the Amount to me, as Solicitor fur the Executors, who have authorized ine to receive tllr saute. RICIID. WACE, Attorney, Shrewsbury. SEPT. 26, 1829, WANTS a Situation, as BUTLER, a steady sober youn^ Man, about 30 Years nf This institution held ifs anniversary in the Town Hall, Shrewsbury, on Wednesday last: the Rev. C. R. Cameron presiding as Chairman. Tbe Rev. Humphrey Sandford read the Report, froffi which we learn that the receipts of the Shrop- shire Auxiliary, foT the last year, ( including a dona- tion of £ 20 from the late'William Cludde, Esq.) amounted to £ 798. 14s.; and those of the iParent Society to £ 55,273. 15s. 3d. being an increase of £ 1811. 3s. 2d. beyond the receipts of the preceding year. VVe also learn from the Report, that the Society has at present 9 Missions, 51 Stations, 46 Clergymen, 198 Schoolmasters and other Teachers, 295 Schools, and 12> 419 Scholars ; and that it is gradually extend- ing the sphere of its eperations and its utility. Messrs. Lester and Baring attended as the Deputies of the Parent Society, and, with the Rev. J. Nunn, strenuously urged the necessity of increased exertion on the part of those who wished well to the objects of the institution. The meeting ( almost wholly com- posed of females) was also addressed at great length by the Rev. Messrs. Mayor and Ward, natives of, this county, and late Missionaries in Ceylon, but who were obliged to return home on account of severe illness induced by the climate of that distant region The speeches of both these gentlemen were of the highest interest, and admirably suited to the occasion, though confined of course to topics connected with the important business of the day, and therefore more adapted to the taste of those who heard them, than to the miscellaneous character of a newspaper, ..!-••• The several resolutions were proposed and seconded hy fhe Rev. R. N. Pemberton, the Rev. Edward Williams, the Rev. John Richards, R. Phayre, Esq. W. R. Stokes, Esq. & c. The Rev. Edward Williams moved the resolution expressive of the loss the Society had sustained in the death of their late President, William Cludde, Esq. and soliciting Thomas Whitmore, Esq. M-. P. to take upcil himself that office; which was seconded by the Rev. R. N. Pemberton. The Rev. C. R. Cameron said, on the occasion of presiding at this meeting, he could not but express iiis unfeigned regret at the great loss tltt; § : iciety, and the Country, had sustained by the deatlii « f Mr. Cludde; and by which he had himself been placed that day in a situation for which lie feit 1h « et htlras wholly unqualified. It had been his lojf' fii'Ttve On terms of intimate friendship with their late lamented President; and he could testify that Jlry ( Jjndde's conduct was actuated by higher motivcfc tban that which sought merely the praise of men: the urbanity of bis temper— the disinterestedness of his cbarity— the chearfulness of his zeal in promoting every good work, whether of a public or a private nature- and the unfeigned humility with which he entered upon all his undertakings— were distinguishing features of his public and private character ; and what was of more importance, in all his engagements he acted Under the influence of the genuine feelings of Christ- ianity. Mr. Cludde was an early supporter of the Church Missionary Society, as well as the President of this Auxiliary ; and he had its welfare much at heart during his last illness. I11 a letter then written by him, he desired, in consideration of his increasing infirmities, to resign thfe office of President; and, inclosing the handsome donation already fioticed, he at the same time breathed his ahxious wishes that it might continue to flourish and increase iu its sphefe of usefulness. Mr. Cltidde had also expressed a hope that Mr. Whitinore might be prevailed upon to accept the office of President; and although, fro^ i the circumstance of that gentleman lieing at present abroad, he ( M r. Cameron) had not hitherto had an opportunity of communicating with him ; yet, from his knowledge of Mr. Whitmore, he could venture to say that he would accept the office, and diligently, faithfully, and successfully discharge its Various duties. A handsome compliment was paid in the Report to fhe late Secretary ( the Rev. John Langley)-; and the Rev. Humphrey Sandford and W. R. Stokes, Esq. Were appointed to fill the office of Secretary jointly. The business of tbe day being concluded, the assembly dispersed ; a collection, amounting to £ 10. 8s. 2jd. being made at the door, in aid of the funds of the Society. On Monday evening, a meeting of the Churih Missionary Association took place at Whitchurch; which was most respectably attended.

Before it was generally known that Dr. Faustus was drawn, he was freely backed at odds against atl Others in the list. The odds varied considerably when it was declared that lie was not to run ; and a still more general . panic ensued when it was u- derstood that Mr. White had declined bringing Euxton into the field, and was about to ride Herbert Lacy. Masaniello took the lead, Arachne following, and Herbert Lacv third. They continued in this position during the whole ot the race. At the distance, however, the race became doubtful, as Lord Wilton, who jockied Arachne, made a desperate effort. It was now hard flogging on all hands at the distance- post; but Masaniello increased bis speed, and won by five or six lengths.

Market Drayton fair, on the 19th inst. was well supplied with cows, horses, and sheep, but owing t6 the great scarcity of itioney there was very little traffic, and that little was rtftt to the advantage of the ^ eller. Two horses were stolen from pastures near the town, on the night of the fair. A bay mare, belonging to Mr. John Birks; 6f Shutlanehedd, was taken from a field near the Ne- fv Buildings, antl although the members of the YVh'itmoffc Association went various routes in pursuit, nothing lias becii heard of her since. The other, a valuable horse, belonging to Mr. Hill, of Shepherd's Grange, W£ B h? covered the next morning,, in the following way The gate- lfeepet at Seabridge, near Newcastle, had iff. let through his gate about midnight, a man < n bors& baek, whose appearance excited his suspicions ; thes^ he expressed to the man, and threatened to send after him immediately In a few moments the horse came back to the gate without his rider, and the animal proved to be the one that had been stolen frOrn Shepherd's Grange, and whieli tli6 fear- sttufck horse- stealer had thus voluntarily abandoned. We learn, from an authority on which we bail confidently rely, that the Bank of England is making preparations for an issue of £ 2 and £ 3 notes, immedi ately after the meeting of Parliament. This will be an important relaxation of the Currency- restriction measure; and rue think it must lead eventually tort still more salutary concession— the re- issue of small notes by the country bankers ; for we think sufficient proof has been afforded, by the lamentable depression of the agricultural and commercial interests through- out the country, that, the principles' of the Liberals and Theorists have gone far to bring us on the verge of national bankruptcy, and that the country can be saved from ruin only by retracing our steps. We care not where the retrocession begins, but recur to a better system we must; and when once the Bank Restriction measure is given up, it will be speedily followed, we hope and trust, by an abandonment of the mis- called Reciprocity System.— Bristol Journal* A. sybil has been sentenced at Versailles to five years' imprisonment, for fraudulently obtaining money of the credulous, under pretence of being able to cure the sick, restore lost property, and smooili the " course of true love." EXTENSIVE FORGERIFS.— A solicitor, of PEN-' zance, has absconded, after haying robbed that neighbourhood of £ 30,000 or £ 40,000. The Rev. Mr. Stephens* of Ludgoon, is one of the sufferers to the amount of £ 10,000. The accused was considered a man of first- rate eminence, and was consequently appointed agent to several gentlemen having estates in that county. It is ascertained that he has commit- ted four forgeries on two banks at Penzance, in the name of W. Tonkin, and has also anticipated some of that gentleman's rents. The most extraordinary circumstance attending his robbery of Mr. Stephens is, that lie dartried on a system of forgery for ten years, keeping a delitor and creditor account in an imitated hawd, as if it was the banker's book, and giving the Rev. Gentleman credit for £ 10,000, while he had withdrawn by forgeriesall except about £ 400* UPS AND DOWNS OF LIFE.— The following story is copied from a provincial newspaper:—" A - short time since there cjied at a village, a few miles from London, Mr. G. P A native of YoiTvshire, His history is a warning to gamblers on the Stock Exchange. His parents had given him an education sufficient to qualify him for ai situation in the office of a first- rate army agent, with whom, by his integrity and attention to business, be advanced himself to the station of principal clerk, at a salary of £ 1500 per annum. During the war his intercourse with military men and politicians afforded him early information of movements in state, affaifs, and induced him to try his hand on the Stock Exchange, where he realized faotn £ 400,000 to £ 500,000. He then built an elegant mansion at C * kept horses, carriages, and a large establishment. His acquaintances ( who then called themselves his friends) visited him regularly, and. were always received with great hospitality. He purchased also a large estate in Hampshire, and another in Sussex, to the latter of which was. attached rotten borough, by means of which he proposed to become- a legislator. In 1$ 19, however, the scale turned against him, but. still hoping for better luck he continued a stock- jobber, until at length his money being gone, there were no more time- bargains, and he retired to a furnished lodging, with two old and faithful servants, a man and his wife, who expended all the savings of their industry ( several hundred pounds) in the support of their master. In August last, the poor than died,- at the age of 68, without apparent disease, but broken- hearted by misfortune and neglect. The faithful servant applied to several gentlemen who had been in habits of intimacy with his master, when he was in prosperity, to enable him to bury the corpse in a decent manner-^ but in vain. To prevent, however, the remains of' one to whom he was devoted being carried to the grave as a pauper, the poor man literally pawned his industry, by contracting a debt of £ 10, to secure what he termed a deceht interment, for one whose adversity he had cheered by constant assiduity and attention.'* When a Well that has been closed fat any length of time is opened, before any one attempts to descend, throw a few lumps of new b . rnt lime down into the well; soon after, let down a bucket with two or three lumps of the same to the water's edge, then pour down two pails full of water.

SHREWSBURY, SEPT. 1829. SNAVE. Speech o/ JJ. T. Sadler, Esq. M. P. [ The extreme importance of the topics which form the subject of the following atidrew, together with the addition)! inter- est which . they receive'from the energetic rJ!'!' and povei illustrations of'lhe otator, induces us to give if, with little abridgment. The speech was delivered at a Ft! Kit: Dinner given to Mr. Sadler by the Merchants and Ship- owners of Whitby 1 and, on that Gentleman's health being drunk, he rose, and spoke as follows:-".-} Gentlemen, the ancient and genuine policy of this great country, like its constitution, was not ( if I inay so express myself) strdck out at a heat. Dictated by necessity," and confirmed by experience, it was the work of successive generations— genera- tions of iuconiparably greater intellect, and," it is to be feared, of far more real patriotism than tlie pre » ent. if was not dictated, perhaps, by hirelii critics, or patronised by political pamphleteers, but Jt jtad, in the deliberate sanction and suffrages of such names as Bacon, as Locke, as Addison, the signature of immortality— men who brought to the consideration of the subject not only the broadest lights of reason, but the utmost warmth of bene- volence, and who left uothing lo be discovered in the fundamental principles of hnman policy to the witlings of the day, but the secret of their own conceited ignorance. That policy; founded upon the certainty of rhe rkh abundance of all things necessary to human " existence within our \> wn ^ shores, and of the consequent duty and advantage of developing them, sought from foreign Countries those commodities ( happily for us, few alvd compa- ratively. unimportant) " which mtture had denied to this, at the same time striitly protecting ' those branches of British Industry which could fiot'other- wise have been introduced' amongst Us, nor pre- served, when established. Now, it were most easy to show that whatever reasons there" might have been for the introduction of'sut- h a system, ( and they were such as will continue to operate in all countries where common scuse prevails,)- such reasons were rendered infinitely'more imperative by that course of events ' which has caused this • country to be mo e heavily taxed than any other, ' and ( thanks to the support of internal industry) long enabled it to dispense the most libeial reward to' human Inborn' of any natron upon earth: To allow British labour to be competed with by foreigners in our own market then is, in reference to Ihe first fact, onr taxation, the most dishonest, and in regard to the second, onr comforts, the most cruel, policy, lhat ever wps ventured upou by airy government in the world, to say nothing of its folly fu behalf of the former system I have men- tioned nanies; I will now make a still more im- portant appeal, namely, to facts. Reasonings, by whomsoever urged, may fail; Experience', never! Under that system of policy, and in spite of obsta- cles the most formidable, the nation increased its wealth, promoted its prosperity, consolidated its power, and extended its dominion. Depressious there certainly did occur in Ihe country, but these, which towards the lust were plainly traceable to the introduction of parts of the absurd policy how adopted, were, comparatively speaking, slight aud temporary, and, above all, partial: if one interest suffered the rest were in a conditiou to sustain it. The vibrations of the national balance soon sub- sided into the equipoise of settled and general prosperity. The history of tile world exhibits not the nation whose advancement was so rapid, and whose prosperity denied to promise such perpetuity. That such was its condition, I appeal to your indi- vidual experience, 1" cite still higher authority. Prosperity was protiooiiced in glowing language from the throne,— prosperity was echoed in still more exaggerated terms, and attended with bound- less promises of its perpetuity and increase, by the minister of the crown. These declarations were believed and acted upon by the people, und their faith has been since imputed to them as their folly and their crime, by some of those, even, who put them forth: But they were true, and would have remained so, but for the perverse alteration, at that moment, of the principles of t> ur national policy. All innovation, Lord Bacon says, is with injury : and he must be bliud, indeed, that does not see the injury this has occasioned; hot, by a strange fatality, which not unfreqiiently occurs in Ihe history of human affairs, the suffering has fallen upon the guiltless, while many of those who were accessary to the change have largely benefitted by it. ' Let us, therefore, now torn to the present con- dition of things amongst us? What now is the situation of the country? A retrogression in three or four short years, since the new theory has been in operation, of, the most alarming nature, in what- ever point of view it is considered. What is the great interest'— which the place— in this heretofore happy empire, which is prospering? ' Where is it that - general distress is not now experienced, and impending ruin dreaded ? What is the pursuit Which is profitable to. the employer, or sustains in comfort the employed;? Who shall say whether that mass of bodily suffering, which the almost starving operatives now endure, « r the mental and cdpcealed anguish which many of their former employers' experience, is the most heavy and heart- rending ? ' ' • •"• . And fust,, if we turn our eyes to the agricultur- , isls, who, if calculated as Adam Smith intimates;' in reference lo the employments solely dependent it v. upoi| llieni, \ yhich in our census are placed in the other . class, will amount, us I have prtiiied else where, lo two- thirds of Ihe industrious part ofthe community— I say, turning to the agricultura operatives', what is their condition ? The farmers . of ( he kingdooi are ob the v<; rge of ruin ; nmuy of them are already inextricably eugulphed ; poverty and distress pursue and have already reached them. The labourers, iu entire counties together, are iu the ' deepest distress, and are almost universally pauperised, aud their condition lias had its full share iu reducing the manufacturing operatives to a like, or even a worse situation. With tens of millions of acres of land wholly uncultivated, mil lious of which are amongst the richest soils in the world; with millions more, especially in Ireland^ not half laboured; and with au incredible and increasing number of hands out of employment, and whom we must sustain, though we wholly lose their labour, things have been at length so happily managed, that we habitually employ the labourers of distant countries, while ours are idle; calj their fields into cultivatiou, while we neglect our own furnish with capitals foreign rivals in other branches of industry, which they will assuredly employ against us, while we Voluntarily diminish the national resources;— aud still our poptylation is inadequately, and ( relatively speaking) dearly fed. But the economists recommend perseverance in this policy, and deliberately advise the desertion or abandonment of agriculture to the extent oi putting three- sixths of our soils out of cultivatiou Whither then must the dispossessed millions Of wretched fugitives resort? To the manufacturing districts certainly. They must become the rival ofthe present operatives there, instead of remaining their steadiest customers; and that at a time when the goods already fabricated are so immense quantity as to inundate the world, and so low in price as to starve the manufacturers. Political economists, I am well aware, have an answer for all this;— it consists of a future promise; but the people of England have been long amused by pro. miscs from the same quarter, and have been cruelly deceived. Aud, moreover, they have been redueed to such a condition by their miserable mismanage^ ment, that they can no longer wait their fulfilment, were they as undeviatihgly true as they are mani- festly false. They cannot subsist upoil retnot'e and uncertain contingencies. By a better policy than that now pursued, this country might furnish an abundant supply of food at a- relatively cheaper price, and still have " enough and to spare," to the evident comfort and advantage of the entiro community, and especially of- the manufacturing part of it. Turning, then, to the manufacturing interests,— respecting these the most disheartening and pre- judicial System has been adopted. We have legalized the Constant introduction, under certain duties, of articles of foreign industry, which have, in many branches of business, necessarily interfered with home labour, and greatly diminished its recompense. Our silk manufacturers, shoemakers, glovers, and very many others engaged in still more operose and profit- able branches of employment, comprehending in the whole a great multitude of our industrious country- men, have been subjected to the distressing rivalry of foreigners. ' 1 hat this has lessened the demand for home labour there can be little doubt; none what- ever that it has greatly diminished its wages. Indeed, I myself, have heard those who were mainly instru- mental in introducing the change exult in the vastly greater cheapness of the goods when fabricated, which that change has occasioned ; I heard the ex- ultation at Ihe time with sorrow— 1 heard it with shame, when 1 recollected that those who uttered it made no lessening demand on the public purse, which has still to be replenished in their behalf, by the harder efforts of a suffering people. But the exultation, after all, was natural; their interests arc adverse, as are " those of a body, unhappily too numerous, who are the avowed and persevering enemies of a protected internal industry. As to the shipping interests, to which I shall allude hereafter, it were superfluous to tell you that they have been similarly and even worse treated ; but to this subject 1 shall again recur, though I think it almost un necessary to do so in the present company. I think with that, at least, Gentlemen, you areas well ae quaiuted as are the theorists. One thing has often struck me as to the policy of our projectors— namely, the address with which they attempt to sever the various interests of the country, managing the successive depression of each, by ap- pealing to the selfish feelings of the rest. Thus, I think 1 well remember a certain individual ( to whom, however, 1 have before alluded personally, notwith standing the attempted wit that has been so mis- applied on that supposition)- I say, I think I remem. her him holding forth to the Liverpool ship- owners, that they may probably lie Compensated for the loss of their protection by a similar withdrawal of that of the agriculturists; the granary of the empire might, partially at least, be placed, it was hoped, abroad, and then the ship owners would, of course, share in trans- porting hither the constant supplies—( a little chance of this, however, 1 ween under the reciprocity ays. teqi). But both ship- owners" aud agriculturists were to get other commodities cheaper by the free. trade system— silks, for instance ; and the silk- manufacturer, in his turn, was to be propitiated by the sacrifice of the silk throwster-, Sic. The object of these changes was all the while low prices, otherwise we pay little compliment to the sagacity of their promoters; and, after all, a more insane attempt than to effectuate that, could never have entered iuto the head of man, when it is considered that we have a fixed incum- brance, or debt, to a vast amount, on which the cheapening of the value of property, and of labour in the country which has to sustain it, operates as an enormous augmentation. The landholders, the job- bers, the brokers of the community, may and do feel the advantage of these changes ; some of these dictate the carrying of them still further into execu- tion ; but it Will be well for them, even with a View to their own permanent interests, to pause, or they will find the mischief they meditate " for others will fall upon their ow n pate." Eight hundred millions of debt, and cheap prices, are not convertible terms ; no more than foreign competition and British comfort. Seen in the light of true political philosophy, all the different branches of industry in a community. are united in the bonds of mutual interest as well as amity; and if one be weaker than the rest, the others arc willing to extend to it a; helping hand ; but the nejv system sees things in a different light—" buy here you can buy the cheapest" is the motto— though it is one which would divest us of all our local duties and attachments, and even of patriotism itself. Hence those engaged in various pursuits, which can never be wholly dissevered, are taught to eye each other with feelings of jealousy and hostility ; they must still cling together, indeed, but with the desperation of drowning men, who drag each other down to destruction. These, Gentlemen, are nty general views on the subject.— general I may call them, for they embrace the interests and pursuits of every class amongst us: and, I rejoice to say, they are becoming universal among the operatives. The noble English maxim, " Live and let live," is reviv- ing. Whether it regards the labourer at the plough, or the manufacturer at his loom, 1 have always felt, what I have somewhere expressed, " Let those that till, and those that weave, Still by honest labour live." And I shall never exchange this feeling for some dry and unfeeling dogma of political economy But is the country in ( lie distressed state ill which It is now represented lo be? I fear it is; and were I to become a political tourist, in order to ascertain the fact, I would seek it amongst the many. 1 should not fix my views-. oil the mere surface, or rather summits, of society; these may still glow with the gleam of setting prosperity, which, like the luminary from whence I take my illustration, casts a richer ray, the lower it is ou its decline; while its warm and cheering beams, withdrawn from beneath, have left the narrow humble vale of poverty in darkness and destitution. I say, 1 would not collect my information— - " Where Luxury In palaces litis straining tier low thought To form unreal wauls: nor from flatterers at feasts; from the discussions of economists, at the boards of our merchant princes, groaning with delicious viands and sparkling wines Wevery vintage; but rather from the father ofthe cottage, who sits idle aud distressed, brooding over the fate of those from whom his eyes are averted, his suffering family, but over whom his heart is yearning— and breaking! 1 would not seek it in the dazzling drawing- room, full of curious and costly foreign decorations, where the lady's splendid robe w hich sweeps over the Turkey carpet is the glowing labour of the I. yonese loom ; and the person, even to the hand and the foot, is adorned With the products of other than English industry. No! I would rather read it iu the condition of that poor homeless being, of the same sex, shivering iu the portico below, whom the introduction of those very luxuries has perhaps deprived of her holiest employment, aud driven her to awuit, iu the wages of prostitution, the preservation of a life worse than death itself! In a word, I would take my ideas of the principle and progress of the system fiom the inmates of the cottage, rather than Ihe mansion. As to myself, I had to present a petition from one of the populous hundreds ofthe county of Lancaster, and 1 learned, on the unimpeachable authority of the highly respectable gentlemen through whom it was handed to me, lhat thousands ofthe people are subsisting on l5d. a bead per week, and even lhat pittance is earned by extreme und long- protracted labour. Till very lately, however, the prevalence of general distress was insultingly and mendaciously denied by many of our public oracles. That im- pudent falsehood will, however, avail no longer. Patient as Ihe people of England usually are under their sufferings and privations, they are now, I deeply regret to observe, beginning to be turbulent. When the weavers of Spitalfields were refractory, the oracles coolly recommended, not their redress, but their desertion! The business was to be re- moved, at their dictation, to distant parts. Is C'ongleton at this moment any better off? Macclesfield been less insurrectionary ? Look at Kochdale, at Manchester, at Barnsley; what are the state and condition of those places? Would to Got) my voice could reach them, and might be listened to! I would most earnestly exhort them to peace and obedience to the law ; but I would not advise them to desist from remonstrating concerning their grievances. If the Ministers could be bullied out of their principles, as soinc of them professed to have been, I think they might be importuned out of their policy ; though I am fully aware that, to the scandal of human nature, whims are much more tenaciously maintained than principles; and such, perhaps, still think, that agitators for eman- cipation ought to be listened to; agitators for bread put down! Bflt, now that the general distress can be no longer denied,, still, this darling theory is to be de- fended,' by attributing our sufferings to other causes; apd it must be confessed they give us abundance of choice. Sometimes it has been laid tb the charge of stagnation, more frequently to over- production; now the bankers are in fault— now the traders; ' our agriculturists " have produced too much — they have produced too little. We have a surplus of capital-— we have had a want of jt; but how it senilis that an indifferent harvest or two is the most oiiveulent apology for our distresses!— which dis- tresses, however, commenced befojte the, harvests were deficient; but, had it been, otherwise, varia- tions iu our seasons al ways have existed, and ever will recur, as certainly, though, perhaps, not so re- gulai ly, as the cycles of the planetary system. And for these, as they must always be expected, a wise aud paternal Government will never be unprepared. In a word, the people of England, it has long ap- peared pretty plain, cannot trade to the satisfaction of their rnlers; nor does PROVIDENCE appear to please them any better. These facts, however, are certain; first, that the distress is great; and, secondly, that its date is coincident with that ofthe operation of the new theory ; w itness the statistics of misfortune, of poverty, of crime, in the instant and vast increase of bankruptcies, the multiplica- tion of criminal committals, the rise in the poor- rates, all taking their date from the identical period in question. Can events of so striking and tre- mendous a character exist without a cause, and one adequate to their production? It were absurd to suppose it, one of the most important duties of the Government is therefore to seareh it out, and, in- stead of withstanding thoao public inquiries for which the people have so long and BO loudly- called, lo solicit rather than reject their etidence and in- formation. It appears to me we can best approach this in- quiry by a series of negatives.— And, first, it is not PROVIDENCE who is chargeable with the miseries ofthe people—- on the contrary, never was there a country so endowed with whatever could administer to its comforts, promote its prosperity, or secure its greatness. All the real elements of wealth are centered within our shores; all the accidents which could favour their developement are also ours. We have a country unrivalled in fertility and ample in extent, only partially cultivated, and capable of sustaining, as future generations will prove, a vast accession of inhabitants in far greater plenty than our present population enjoys. Beneath us are minerals of the most valuable kind. Without, our territories encircle the earth, aud accumulate on our shores the products of all regions, and open a door of access to all countries. We have a climate un- rivalled in healthiness, aud a position among nations the most fortunate; surrounded by the ocean, which is not only the very element of British safety and glory, but an inexhaustible mine of wealth. Such, without an hyperbole, is the condition in which PROVIDENCE has placed us; such thtf bounties the , DEITY has poured upon us. Tiie sacred and figura- tive language of the east mi^ lit Dfrappliedto Eng- land as emphatically as to an equally distinguished aud unthankful country of old*—".( Le. hps placed our vineyard on a very fruitful hill. He has fenced it and gathered out the stones thereof, . built a tower in its midst, aud planted it with the choicest vines." — And it may still be asked, as it was of old, " What could be done more for His vineyard than He has done in il ?" 1 defy any man to answer this solemn question as it respects England, so as to lay in any measure the misery of this people at the door of eternal PROVIDENCE. Nor, second, is it the character or conduct of the inhabitants to which the present distresses of the country are attributable. On the contrary, there is not a population upon earth more prone to labour, more active, enterprising, or intelligent in their exertions; more persevering iu their pursuits; none who have so great an abundance of capital— that idol of the present system— by which, according to its doctrine, our national advantages can alone be developed or distributed. Whoever, therefore, or whatever, has occasioned the existing distress, the people are guiltless. Nor is it the number of our countrymen which has produced it. Fashionable as is the diabolical doctrine for diabolical it is, inasmuch as it begins by affront- ing GOD, aud issues in injuring man— it is, like many other fashionable notions, utterly false. It is the prerogative of GOD, saving the presence of our political economists, to decide the question, and he has decided it; in the superabundance of the means of human subsistence which, as a nation, he' has lavished upon us, placed within our reach, and solicited us to accept, ft Keth'er in reference to the resources of the country, or its means of profitable employment, if properly developed, there is not a sinew or an arm too many in the empire, no nor elsewhere— no, more than there is a superfluous spirit called iiito the reajms of immortality by the eternal GOD ! Short indeed, and infernal, would be the remedy, were this revolting notion true. Deporta- tion of every kind, murder in all its forms, indirect or otherwise, would be obvious and general benefits. Still, however, the promulgators of this, notion, with the habitual selfishness of the system, pronouncing upon the redundancy of human beings, invariably except themselves. The Christian advocates of this doctrine are not its personal converts;— whether as it respects life, or its propensities and feelings, they make. no personal sacrifices. They are no Curtiuses — tCrkeertj f but 1 see your indignation at the very mention of these notions; and, rather than on the dogmas of the political economists, we will still rest, as to this matter, upon the assurances of HiJI who givcth food to all flesh; for bis mercy eiulureth for ever. . In whatever point of view; tlrCtrforei we regard this great nation, we may assert that its natural state is one of prosperity and happiness. Siu: h is the con- dition which it ought to enjoy ; and the Minister to whom, in effect, the country commits1 the charge of seeing that the public " receivc no injury," ought to render a reason for its condition if it be otherwise What then are the real causes of the general depression under which every interest at present groans? The answer to this question, were I to dis- cuss it fully, and according to my own views of the subject, would commit me into too wide a field for the present occasion. Some of the more latent, but not the less operative, of these I shall not touch upon now, but confine myself principally to the topics which are more generally argued in relation to this subject; and to these 1 shall address myself very shortly. And, first, I consider the policy of the Govern- ment, in reference, to the circulating medium, to have been most pernicious ; and on this point 1 cannot but remark two things— the one is, that their doctrine upon this subject appears to be most, erroneous or confused ; the other that, had it beCn true, it Was strangely mistimed as to the period of its application. What is it for which a circulating medium of what- ever denomination is alone wanted ?' It is to facilitate the interchange of the products of human industry : and whatever does this, and continues to do it effectually, is to all intents and purposes " sound," to use the cant term of the day. To use a familiar illustration,— if a farmer and a manufacturer, for instance, wish to barter a calf and a coat, I can see no imaginable difference in the result, whether they do this in kind, or by silver, or gold, or copper, or promissory notes of a large or small denomination, — the purpose is accomplished, and the difference is; that it is often accomplished the more conveniently, especially in distant transactions, by the latter than the former methods; and no man can deny that such nofes, had the ministry wished to reform, instead of destroying the system, might have been rendered as secure as gold, which, with all its boasted superiority, is itself only the sign, and not the element of the wealth it assists to interchange. Credit also, as ah appendage to the paper system, was a great, and I believe the greatest instrument in effectuating the interchange of the products of human indusfry ; but this also our present political economists have dis- countenanced, to the visible detriment of the less wealthy classes of society, whose interests ought pre- ferably to have been contemplated. We see ihe consequences in the universal stagnation and distress which have ensued. - v f" Meantime, it is not attempted to be denied but that the fundholder, the jobber, the - nominal Capitalist, and all pensioners and placemen of whatever kind, were benefitted by this operation; but on the rest of the community— namely, the industrious part of it— it committed as direct a spoliation as was ever at- tempted. The Government borrowed in paper, and, if they had continued to pay iu it, tlicir creditors would still have realised immense advantages by their transactions ; but to borrow in paper and pay in gold— to benefit so vastly the non- productive at the expense of the productive classes; already so depressed, was monstrous. (/. mid cheers. J Another cause of the present and long continued depression of the commerce and manufactures of the country 1 have already alluded to, and this also is attributable to the same school of economists— the bane of the country— I mean the free- trade system, as it is called — ( Cheers.) Circumstanced as this country is, having to sustain a so much heavier load of taxation, and paying dearer for the necessaries of existence, and subsisting its operatives— at least, till this fatal alteration— better than any other, it must be obvious that, in all those branches of industry where we have no countervailing advantages— either from the possession and retention of the raw material, better machines, or superior skill— foreigners must be able to undersell us, and consequently to deprive many of otir home Operatives of their work and of their bread. The branches so circumstanced are numerous and important. It is true there is, for the present, a protecting duty, as it is called, imposed upon some of their articles, miscalculated, as 1 pre- sume to think, if it be meant as such ; while the cir- cumstance of legalizing tbem at all has given a facility to smuggling, which it was promised at the time, cither in ignorance or worse, that it would put down, and which had overwhelmed, in many instances, the home market with foreign goods. The manufacturers humbly sought relief, if not in prohi- bition, yet in a higher protection. The Government refused them a Committee, and lowered the duty, in order that the Custom- house instead of the smuggler might become their great rival ; as if that could serve, or do otherwise than still more deeply to in- jure them ! Prohibition was peremptorily refused, and it was argued that no higher duty could be obtained than that to which it is now reduced. Absurd! When the revenue is at stake, see the amount that can then be rigorously exacted ; 100 per cent, upon teas, 600 per cent, perhaps, on brandies; 1,000 per cent upon tobacco; while the immense amounts so collected are a sufficient proof how small a proportion of such taxes can be evaded. But if it be true that you cannot exact more than 25 per cent, duty on silks, & c. without returning to the pro- hibitory system, then, in spite of the political economists, prohibit! Let Parliament preserve the field of British labour as strictly as the laws do the manors of the country, and we will then be content. Is not the object as important? If you cannot other- wise effect this necessary purpose, I repeat, prohibit! I repeat it in the words of Bacon, concerning foreign manufactures, such being superfluities, ought to be prohibited; for that, says he, will either gain the manufacture or banish the superfluity. But, in defence of this free trade, it is said that it has not injured the home manufactures, even in the particular branches thus interfered with ; and this is attempted to be proved by the increased quantity of the raw material consumed at home since the system commenced. Admitting the fact stated, which I yet doubt, still does this demonstrate the prosperity which it is advanced to prove? Tell me not about the quantity of silk, for instance, which is now introduced, being increased by mil- lions of pounds weight per annum; but answer me whether, for the additional labour thus imposed, a corresponding increase in the amount of wages for making it up, has taken place; nay, whether for the increased work, even equal wages have been obtained? The reverse is the melancholy fact, in that and all the other manufactures so interfered with. And this great diminution in wages demands an increase of labour for the purpose of obtaining even a scantier subsistence; hence the supply of goods is necessarily increased; and mark the double and disingenuous use the economists make of this ! They attribute the distresses they can no longer deny to over- production : and still this over- production they use as a proof of prosperity! will only add, that the statesmen who can only felicitate themselves or the country, on this cheap- ening and increase of human labour amongst us, wouid have been fit political economists for a cele- brated tyrant of old, Pharaoh, who, while he with held the allowances, increased the tasks of an oppressed people. The people of Eugland produce enough— labour sufficiently; who doubts it? But alas, " they spend their strength for that which is not bread, and their labour for that which satisfieth not!" In the eyes of our calculators, the temple of British prosperity may indeed appear vast in its proportions, magnificent in its ornaments, aud rich mean time, diminish the profits and lessen the wages in every branch of the pursuit? I am the Well! Has in its several parts; it may be filled with votaries of wealth, and echo with the sounds of mirth aud mutual congratulation; but let them cast their eyes to its foundations;— there are seen its secret supporters, the living eariatides of the sys- tem, a miserable multitude of both sexes and of all a es, from over- laboured and crying infancy to decrepit- age, who are bowed to the dust by the I - ad of labour imposed upon them, and whose health, and morals, and life itself, are sacrificed to the mammon of political economy— Capital. But it is iiow said, in answer ' to the preceding argument, and still in defence of free trade, and with an air of triumph ( for such is the ignorance of these reasoners), lhat all branches of manufactures, as well as those immediately interfered with, are plunged into distress, consequently the system cannot have been injurious to any. Since the suffering can no longer be denied, their favourite theory is to be saved by admitting its universality. Now it appears to me, that, of all the absurdities piditical economy has yet put forth, and they have been sufficiently numerous and glaring, this is the greatest; it is one of which the lowest mechanic would feel ashamed. Supposing that previously to this fatal' inroad upon our home markets in some important branches of British in dustry, that, taking the whole together, the demand and supply was accurately balanced ; the subsequent surcharge of any particular branch must necessarily affect the whole. Those whose labour is supplanted in one pursuit must resort to another, overcharging that also— injuring, therefore, most certainly., the entire market of labour. The man, therefore, who proposes to supplant a certain number of silk looms by foreign goods of that description will affect in reality so many cotton ones, and these again will interfere with linen operatives, and so through every branch of national labour. The marvel is that so plain a position could be over- looked— one which must be true any where excepting in such a country as India, where the industrious classes are separated into castes, and rigidly eject all change of employment under any circumstances whatsoever. But in Eng- land, where the introduction of machinery has super- seded in so great a degree manual ingenuity, the equipoise of labour is speedily adjusted and preserved, however it may be disturbed. Interfere by your new- system, then, with the labour of nearly a million of hands, and in their distress the rest will assuredly partake ; they will suffer,' not a sympathetic, but a real, not a remote, but an instantaneous injury. Many other ' observations on the new, doctrines ml « hi he added, but 1 shall not further enlarge. Their object seems to be to serve the mere- capital- ists, the jobbers, the commission brokers, the foreign agents; those of wliom Locke has truly said, that they prosper and grow rich bv the very means which impoverish the rest of the community. To instance only one of these, absenteeism— this it is now taught is no injury to a country, a position whose absurdity can only be equalled by its pcrni- c ou8 iess The absentees of England and Ireland are the enemies of their country, depriving tens of thousands of their daily labour and bread, and deeply injuring hundreds of thousands more. I think with Adam Smith, that such individuals are fair objects of exclusive taxation, avoiding as they do all the burdens of the country from which they derive their all, and vacating all their duties, whether those of patiibtrsm or humanity. If they remain dead to every worthier motive, I would appeal to something more'on a level with their principles aud feelings— I would touch, and deeply, their interests. But, gentlemen, it will be naturally expected that 1 should, on this occasion, advert somewhat particularly to the interests of shipping, as more peculiarly affecting this respectable town; and one to which you pointedly alluded in the written invitation, with which you have honoured me. And first I may say, that without any appeal to documents whatever, 1 am certain that to allow full scope to the reciprocity system, in regard to ship- ping, cannot but be fatal to its prosperity. When I consider that between many of the ports of Eng land and the continent, there are but a few days, I might say, in some instances, hours, sail; and when our competitors iu the latter can build their vessels at half the price you can, mail them at half the wages, and victual them at less than half the cost, — I say, under these circumstances, who does not see that the foreigner will, in this competition, ultimately beat usotf our own element, and, in the aware that you are obliged to employ the ships you already own, and the hands, especially appren- tices, you are bound for the present to support, aud to increase the activity of that employment in order, though unsuccessfully, to compensate the diminution of profit— a proof of prosperity as it respects your particular branches, as well as those ofthe manufacturers, according to the ecouomists; But, it requires no gift of prophesy to foretell ruin to that calling, whatever be its nature, which no longer affords a profitable return to the capital of the master— nor sufficient employment and adequate w- ages to the workman. Gentlemen, I saw the other day, ill a personal attack upon myself by a journalist, the British ship- ping classed amongst those to which the epithet " trivial" was applied. No terms which 1 have it command can sufficiently reprehend such an assertion, either as to its falsehood or its folly. From the time of our great Alfred, who was alike the founder of tlie British constitution and of our fleet, and who so far extended his patronage of it as to confer the privilege of nobility upon him who should cross the ocean a given number of times, even on mercantile pursuits ; — from the time of Alfred, I say, down to a very late period, the encouragement anil support of the ship- ping of England has been made a matter of supreme concernment. Since its creation, however, its most effectual encouragement was probably the Navi- gation Act, that Magna Cliarta of English shipping ( cheers), which was one of those laws that Mr. Fox eulogised so highly, and the spirit and intent of which Mr. Pitt supported and extended with all his in- fluence, however its letter was modified. Even Adam Smith, who wrote at a period when England had hardly ccased to be an exporter of the necessaries Of life, and When consequently free trade was not the proposition it now is, but the very reverse,— even Adam Smith asserted the Navigation Act to be dictated by " the most deliberate wisdom." That act formed an essential part of the naval constitution of England, if I may so speak ; it was on the faith of that sacred engagement, for sacred it had become in the sight of successive generations of Englishmen, that you, gentlemen, embarked your property, which is now much of it sacrificed and lost by as direct an act of spoliation as if the same power had seized a portion of your estates, which you hold only under the same sanction— that of the law. But, gentlemen, it is not your interests alone which have been sacri- ficed.— No; in these the royal navy of England has been touched ; at the very mention of whicb he is 110 Briton whose heart does not glow with feelings of exultation, mingled however, at present, I fear, with those of apprehension and regret. That navy, which is the shield of England's defence, and the arm of her strength, which has preserved her in the pro- foundest peace, when a world was leagued against her, which swept the ocean of her enemies, and poured upon their remotest shores her irresistible thunders, - that force without which her military arm w- ould be utterly powerless excepting when raised against our own country, and Which bas therefore a share in all the laurels Britain wears, as well as those bright and unfading ones which are exclusively her own,— the royal navy is put in jeopardy by this anti- national policy,— a worse consequence even than all the personal and private injuries which have been inflicted : as defence ( again to quote Adam Smith) is of much more importance than opulence, the Act of Navigation is ( was, he must now have said,) the wisest perhaps of all the commercial regulations of England. But that act, the same school so often alluded to have torn asunder with as little ceremony as they have destroyed that " Old Almanack" of 1888— the Protestant constitution of the empire. Iu making these observations, 1 do not sympathize with you so deeply, gentlemen, as with those who would have been better employed, and more amply paid by you, had the former system been allowed to remain. The ship- builders and merchants of Whitby have lived in other and better times, aud are, I understand, as a body, wealthy in an unusual degree, and can therefore sustain these reverses, or leave the business, though at great sacrifices,, which subjects them to such loss. But the workmen— what is to become of tbem? And here 1 will make my last allusion to the new principle; it is at the lower and industrious classes that it principally takes its aim,— iu which the legislature bas long been too much its abettor. Paley says expressly, that " the care of the poor ought to be the principal object of all laws, for this plain reason, that the rich are able to take care of themselves;" but wef- e 1 to say that any of the late regulations nave been dictated by these feelings, I should compliment the benevolence of their projectors at the expense of their intelligence. I will compliment ucither. The modern system, which has been insinuating itself amongst 11s by degrees, I hold to be an attack upon the few remaining privileges of labouring poverty throughout. In agriculture, this spirit cliclat what Lord Bacon calls the engrossment of great farms; by which a hundred little cultivators must be thrown out ot'La decent occupation and replaced by one, if the theorists can make, it out that a grain more of surplus produce, to use their cant expres sion, can be so obtained. In manufactures, it would, as the Edinburgh Encyclopedia justly expresses it, " turn out of employment the entire population, if the muster manufacturer, by the employment of machinery, could save five per cent." In commerce, it exhorts you to buy where you can buy cheapest, though you leave the multitude, who enable you to purchase at all, without employment, raiment, aud bread. Iu shipping, it allows the native mariner, whose life is a life of danger, oud whose death is often one of glory, and who may be called upon at any moment to fight the battles of bis country, to be ground down or supplanted, as it may happen, by the slaves of some foreign despol, who perhaps victuals tbem upou black bread and oil.' Even in science, I am sorry to say this " infection works." If, for instance, auatumy has to be promoted— but I recall the idea;— here at length the poor are allowed the privilege of monopolizing the market. ( Hear, hear ) Subjects for the human shambles are to be supplied by tlie friendless poor exclusively;— those legislators who have illumination enough to laugh at their own prejudices, nevertheless refuse their own carcases to the carving knives of the dissectors ( Hear.) These, however, are not the most striking instances which might and shall be adduced in proof that the spirit of modern legisla- tion— since we have deserted the humane, benevo- lent, aye, and politic principles of our Christian forefathers,— is hostile to the real interests of the working classes. These are, and have long been, my settled feelings and sentiments, and I utter them in no hostility, open or disguised, against the other and higher ranks of society, which, 011 the contrary, I have always at- tempted to support, in my humble sphere, in their just rights and privileges. It is to secure these, as well as to serve the lower orders, that 1 thus speak, and I shall act conformably. But the present legis- lative philosophy attempts to place the pyramid of national prosperity upon its apex instead of its base : its anxieties are about the summit, when it should be attending to the foundation. ( Cheers. J My pre- ceding observations are not levelled at any set of men in power, individually considered ;— on the con- trary, . it has always been my wish to support the government of the country as far as 1 conscientiously could ; and the present ministry had more especially my good wishes. I had differed from their new policy, indeed, ever since they introduced it,— the " thunders" of the opposite party, however the ownership is contended for ;— the lightning attending which has scorched and withered all our vital in- terests: but I imagined that they were supporting what I conceived was of still more importance to the country even than its interests,— namely, its princi- ples. ( Cheers J I have found myself lamentably deceived. I cannot, therefore, as an Englishman, always make up my mind to think and speak of men in power,— the dispensers of public favours and re- wards, as some do, who declare of them • " Whate'er they do, " Seems wisest, virtuousest, discreetest, best." ( Cheers and laughter.) No ; I am not one of these cameleons who take their changeful hue from some grand object near which they are crawling ; 1 wish, as is likewise fabled of that reptile, that such could also live upon air ( continued cheers J;— it would be far better for the public purse, and no worse for public principle. ( Applause.) I hail fully meant, on this occasion, ar. d before I had concluded, to have adverted to that line of policy which 1 humbly think ought to be adopted, aud which, without any violent revulsions, much less untried plans, would still, and I think speedily, re- store the nation to its wonted prosperity. 1 have, no, no— go on J, and I shall therefore conclude ; not that I shrink from the task, or shall refrain from sub- mitting my ideas on this important subject on a proper occasion, fn the mean time, do I despair concerning the country ? God forbid! She will recover, and recover the sooner, because she is even now loathing the potions with which she has been lately drenched. ( Cheers and laughter.) She may be prostrated for the present; but, lifce another Antaeos, she will rise, with renewed strength, from every overthrow. Slie will prosper; not, indeed, because of the councils of her rulers, but in spite of them. Yes ; this mighty nation, unrivalled for ages in military and naval glofy— foremost in the pursuits of science— warmest in every work of philanthropy — highest in the paths of genius— the nurse of liberty — the Asylum of rtdigion— the mother of mighty nations, Who shall spread her language, perpetuate her institutions, and submit to her moral empire, when the dominion of her power shall have passed away;— this country is destined as yet, I hope and believe, to become, in the hands of a gracious Pro- vidence, the benefactress of the universe. ( Cheers.) She will yet vindicate her own principles, and assert her own canse. She may, like many a gallant bark that has taken refuge in your friendly port, be now at sea, in danger and distress, the sport of adverse winds, and tossed on the dark and tempestuous waves; but, if 1 may apply the fiction of Virgil to a nobler purpose, the deity shall appear, and, smiting the unfaithful Palinitrus, himself seize the helm, and > ilot the vessel through the subsiding storm into the laven of prosperity and peace.

The Coiiimittee formed to promote the removal of the existing restrictions iu the trade to the East Indies, on Monday, the 14th inst. gave a dinner to Mr. Whitmore, at the Adelpbi Hotel, consisting of . the delicacies ofthe season, prepared by Mr. Radley in his usual excellent style. There were about twenty members present, over whom James Cropper, Esq. presided. Ill the course pf the evening Mr. Whit- more, in a speech of considerable length, addressed the meeting on the subject of the present state of the trade to the East; getting forth the good which must result from the discontinuanceof the monopoly, and pledging himself heartily to co- operate with them in effecting this desirable object.— Liverpool Albion. We have to record a noble benefaction to the Suffolk General Hospital. The Marquis of Bristol has directed £ 500 in the Three per Cent. Consols to be transferred into the names of its Trustees. A day or two ago the Telegraph station here com- municated to Holyhead, a distance of 156 milesyiand received an answer, in 35 seconds, being the shortest time it has ever done it in .— Liverpool Courier. On Saturday, a gentleman in Ennis received from Galway a lobster that measured ovet three- quarters of a yard from the points of the claws to the end of the tail, and weighed eight pounds and three- quarters; nearly six pounds of very good fish were taken' out of it. Another instance of extensive forgeries committed by a tradesman in a manner similar to that practised by Hunton, who lately suffered at the Old Bailey, has been just brought to light. The delinquent has however escaped, and'is expected to have proceeded to America. His name is William Robert Gardner, and he has for some time past carried on the business of a map and chart- seller and engraver in the neigh- bourhood of Red Lion- square. The extent of his forgeries is estimated at from eight to ten thousand pounds. It is not ascertained what money he took with him, but it is known that the night before he left town ( the 29th of July) he got several of his forged bills discounted.

RADICAL REFORM SOCIETY.— A set of fellows of the Cobhett and Hunt tribe have formed a society of this sort, antl ' judging- from the success which at- tended the rabble of a similar grade, which composed the Romish Association, have commenced the col- lection of a " Radical Bent. 1' We have 110 doubt that if they collect a considerable sum, make and get printed furious speeches, compounded of half- sedi- tion, half- threat, and go on for some time abusing Ministers, & c. the latter will be compelled, ere long, to yield to them as they have done to the Papists in this country ; and then— what then?— comes anarchy. Only think ofthe impudence of these fellows! one of their resolutions is that no Member of either House of Parliament shall be allowed to become a member of the Radical Reform Society !! ha !! ha !! the greasy rogues, however, are serious— they meet in a back lane off High Holborn, in a room dignified with the name of a Mechanics' Institute.— Star of Brunswick.
