IALOP3AM JOURftAlL, A MB COURIER OF WALK LONDON— SATURDAY.. In ihe House of Commons, on Thursday, Sir CHARLES WETHKUELL . referred io the destruction of property belonging to the Duke ' of Newcastle, and contended that Ministers ought promptly ( o interfere and protect ti e property of his Grace, notwithstanding his opposition to the gtive umeni; atld after violently impugning the conduct of Ministers, vv) i. o he said had connived ut the. e. xcesscs, • by siiffering'intiatiKuatory speeches lo be made at illegal nteelinirs, the Learned Gentleman moved " That n Special Commission should he Issued for the trial ot the- rioters nt Noltingluiin." After a tew remarks from Lord ALTHOUP in reply, the ATTORNEY GENERAL said he' did not consider there was any necessity for issuing a Special Com- mission on the present occasion. He had reason to bciieve that the riots had already ceased at Not- tiu& hain. The first ebullition of feeling was ex- tremely epiick and rapid in the w ork of destruction ; and the troops being then occupied at Derby, a sufficient force could not be brought to prevent the burning of the Castle, an event which he most sincerely deplored. The respectable housekeepers' of Ntittinghafn had since been keeping watch night and day, the magistrates were uctive in the dis- charge'of their duty, the troops acted w ith courage a- ivd . immunity, and he therefore hoped that the riots there were at an end. No prisoners, however,, had, been taken against whom the turning was charged, and - dirty a few suspicions stragglers who were, touud wandering about the country. He regretted ' extreiiicly what had occurred, nnd implored the house not to exasperate the public, but to unite toi" the preservation of the public peace. Tlie prcpodtion of Sir C Wetherell was then negatived without a division — The adjourned debate 011 the Bankruptcy Court bill was resumed. Mr. PEMREK'TON opposed and Mr. PEPYS defended the nfeasuro. The hoUse; after ii division of 107 to 31, - resoiyed itself into Committee, and several of the clauses were agreed to.— Sir C. WETHERNI, again denounced tfie bill " as the rankest political ani) judicial job that ever characterised legislation," and said he supposed the next bill u would be to make the Lord Chancellor Brougham irremovable." The clause appointing four Judges of Court was carried by a division of lli to 19. The further discussion of the ' bill was then, postponed. The proceedings in cither house yesterday were not of interest. In fhe Lords, the Lord Chancellor took the opportunity of declaring in answer to the Various charges lately adduced against it, that the Bankruptcy Courts, Bill so far from extending actually diminished his amount of patronage. The question of compensation, for the surrender that he had voluntarily made Uf a considerable portion of his income, his lordship observed, he would leave to Some future opportunity, his great object at present being - to pass the measure..— In the Commons, the - bill again underwent a long discussion in Committee, aii| l at three o'clock this morning thc further . consider- ation of its clatiseS'was deferred until this day. The bill for the Registration of Deeds stands over until' the next session. It is understood that the Prorogation of Parlia- ment only awaits the passing of the Bankruptcy ' Courts bill ; and that it is not intended that the two houses shall again assemble until afier Christmas. If any person were to compare the accounts put forth every day for the last six rironths, in fhe Minis- terial and othef Radical Papers and Pamphlets, of the state of public feeling anil the result of rejecting the Reform Bill, with the actual result such as we now find it to be, he woUld form no very high estimate of the wisdom or the integrity, as it may he, of the authors of those accounts. It must, however, he ad- mitted ill their favour that their fictions, if liot honest aud reputable, were at least natural and politic. When nil rational arguments had been discussed and refuted it was h gh time to look for new weapons with which to carry on the combat; and the selection was characteristic of its authors. They boldly an- . nounced that rebellion would ensue if their end was not attained-, that no sooner should the lords reject the measure than the whole country would be in a state of anarchy and confusion. . Hitherto this ques- tion has been one of probabilities. Now, at length, its criterion is fo be found in facts and events. The Lords have rejected the measure, and the country, with two or three unfortunate exceptions, has been as peaceful as ever. It remains that we . should amuse ourselves with the whimsical speclaCle of these bluster- ing and overbearing declaimers backing but from a position which, thanks to'honest men, is uo longer " tenable. It is to soften the bitterness attendant on the detec " fkm and exposure of falsehood that fliese same per- sons have, for the last- few days, been endeavouring in every possible manner, either to excite the passions of the multitude, or to assume to themselves the credit of controlling them. In London placards bave been issued— from head- quarters, we suppose— desir- ing shopkeepers to shut their shops, and every body to go into mourning. The attendance uf the mob is requested at the Horse Bazaar, or at sonic miserable tavern in the suburbs, and thousands of people are to attend in places only capable of containing a few hundreds. But what amuses us most is to observe placards, printed and posted in a similar manner, desiring the people tp be peaceful. This new- born zeal in Ihe cause of order is somewhat suspicions: The people never intended to he otherwise than peaceful, thc caution is in 110 case complimentary, and here it is unnecessary besides. At Derby, how', ever, the wishes of thc terrorists have hecn in some d eg tec gratified; and yet even there it was a sad falling oil'. The " imposing spectacle of a great nalion rising to assert its rights" vvas Confnicd to the more contracted occupation of rescuing certain criminals tro. J 11 prison lo which the laws of their country had consign J them- to burning some and destroying other properly- nr,'^ achievements, and worthy of the quarter from which it ei. Jt" f ™ . It is in a sim. lar strain that we arc told of wWC nf . the manufacturing districts, that, if Lord Grey will iVuT consent to remain in office, there are some hundred thousands of persons who may, it is hoped, be re- strained from acts of outrage. So then these persons who have all along been represented as the loudest of all dcclaimers for " the Bill, the whole Bill," have been first content that it should be cut down by Lord Chandos and others into any thing hut the Bill, and now with admirable moderation are permitting its re- maining absurdities to he rejected in toto by an over whelming majority of the Lords, satisfied, according tp those who, trumpet them as revolutionists, with the bare fact of Lord Grey's continuance in office!— A more barefaced piece of jugglery was never played off in any country.— The people ( properly so called) never intended lo commit any disturbance, nor to join in nny wrong- doing, and they will pursue the paths of peace, because in those paths it is their delight I9 c iltiniie. - • .'":•• •'• • '<• fjntlE Shrewsbury Race Committee request the Inhabitants of the Town and Neighbour- hood interested in the above Itaecs will meet them al the.

Ministers ahd their adherents, no doubt,- aje right asserting that " reform is certain ;" hut all Ihe phenomena unequivocally indicate that the reform which is certain is a reform in, principle ami detail essentially adverse to " the bill," and inevitably fatal to the hopes of Whiggery, nnd to fhe hopes of every other modification 01 Jacobinism.— The noble ex- ertions of Lord ChaiidoSj Sir Richard Vyvvan, Mr Croker, Sir Charles' Wctlicrelf, and the other able leaders of the opposition, are now manifesting their fruits. Men are now. opening their eyes to the fact that change . is not necessarily improvement— that whilst it is possible to make Ihe constitution of tie House of Commons better than at present, it is easy to make it u- orse— anil that ministers have chosen the easier course. Finally, that it is equally impolitic and iniquitous, to give thfee- fonrths of the represen- tation to one- fourth of the population— the least intelligent fourth, the lensit patriotic fourth, the least moral fpurfh, but the fourth that are in the best condition to make mobs to serve the purposes of any profligate administration. To these things the people are opening their eyes, and their vision is ill no small degree aided by the use which ministers and their journalists have lately made of mob violence. The effect of such discoveries upon the minds of thinking Englishmen cannot he long doubtful; they will abhor " the bill," and its authors, as much as they may desire reform; and a wise reform, carried in a proper spirit, will, as one of its most certain consequences, fix a sentence of exclusion upon Whig's and Whiggery for another, quarter of a century .-^ Standard. A good deal of conversation took place . last night in the House of Lords as to matters of great interest; but on which nothing further could be elicited from Eari Grey, but that the approaching prorogation could not be a short one.

Situated in the centre of the country, and mainly dependant as Shrewsbury is on the agricultural interest by which it is surrounded, the residents therein would he seriously injured by thc abstraction of that which is the principal means of periodically congregating w thin ils limits and vicinity the rank and fashion not only of our own shire hut of the surrounding and adjacent counties— and by which assemblage the cause of Charity is as much promoted as are the stated opportunities of general amusement and relaxation Further we would remit. d the breeders of horses that the. Course has always b - en noted as the place for shewing and selling the best horses bred in the county at very large prices. The Shropshire Hounds meet Monday, Oct. 21th Pradoe ' Wednesday, Oct. 20th Cressaee Village Saturday, Oct. 29th, High Hiitthn At half- pa § t ten. As " a little leaven lerfveneth the whole lump," so a small quantity of" desperate rullianisfn scattered through the Country serves to excite in isolated places the semblance of more general commotion ; and as it answers the purpose of certain chroniclers, to whom the limits of truth are no restraint, to exaggerate the appearance of discontent, ami to invent them where they do not exist, a most ex- travagant anil false picture of the public feeling is circulated through thc country. Some drunken yeoman becomes pot- valiant, and says he will not sei- Ve under his present commander, because he voted against the Reform Bill, and this is exaggerated into regiments sending in their resignations unless their Ami- Reform Officers are remover! another simpleton in Shrewsbury says he will " never draw his sword upon a reformer ;" and a sti'l more'simple and mischievous Editor magnifies fhe declaration and scandalizes a whole r.- giineiit of Yeomanry. But do such persons suppose that the property aud respectability of the kingdom, wli'cii are as 2fJ to jl against what is called Reform, are to he gulled and intimidated by such artifices. Do they think, that because one radical mob at Derby breaks opeu the gaol, and commits murder and destroys property, while another mob at Nottingham imitates them, ami by setting ii re to property endeavours to surpass them' in iniquity,— do they think that therefore the hearts of the loyal will quail, and that schemes of revolution will he submitted to ? If such be their ideas, great indeed must be the extent of their in- fatuation.— No: these things are the means that will arouse the feelings of those who are determined to maintain the institutions of the country ; and who cannot fail to see what " Reform" means when they see how and by whom it is supported. The folly of Ihe present incompetent and most ill- advised Ad- ministration has brought upon the country its present difficulties: and if, instead of cultivating the means of peace and harmony, they continue to throw their firebrands among tlie people, under the name of " Reform," still greater will he the evils that they will create, and the crimes for which they will be answerable.— Of one thing, however, the present Ministers may rest assured, that in the opinion of nineteen- twentieths of fhe. respectability of the coun- try, the Reform that would operate as the. greatest blessing to the community, would he the deliverance of the country from their contraul, and tho formation of an Administration that will seek the peace of the people and thc promotion of their substantia) interests., Tlte Dnegalfs in the House of Commons, the Liverymen of the Marquis of Westminster and some other Reform Peers (!) ill the provinces, and the radicals of some populous towns, who, in order to enfranchise themselves, would rob the less numerous communities of their fellow- subjects of their birth- right, have been begging their tleuglemeh of the Administration to keep llieir places: and wc are quite sure thry nerd not be very importunate ! A cur never resents a kick ; nor will the individuals who form the present Administration, and who have been defeated upon every part of their Budget, and upon that measure of excitement which was the sheet- anchor of their hopes, be more tender in their feelings,.— Place they have got, and place they will keep, until that indignation at iheir conduct which pervades all classes of respectable and considerate men in the kingdom, shall, through the legitimate channels of the constitution, compel them " fo resign those situations for which it is abundantly manifest Ihey do not posse is one fitting qualification. A Mr. Baliing'ton Macauley is reported to have said in the House of Commons, that if Lirdi throng-, ton's motion had been rejected,- they would liav. e ( Lit tribunals defied, the tax gathCCer resisted,' tf^' piihlu creditor unpaid, the law without efficacy; thc Goverri- ment poifertess, and Ihe whole frame of " society shaken fo its fotindatfoh.— Now we will ventre to say a greater display of ignorance vvas neyer ex- hibited by man thasV is Comprised in this statement attribifteiHo Mr. Macanley : for we are qnite certain, that the day— and it cannot. he Very far distant— which will witness the discharge of fhe present Ministry, will be a day of Jubilee to all that feel an interest in thc welfare of the country and its establishments— to all who wish trade to ^ OUrish and the people to prosper— to all w liO wonld stand hy what is right and oppose that which is wrong— to all who would assist in repairing breaches and, amending abuses, hut who will never submit to be cheated into Revolution under the mask of " Reform." O11 Friday last, Sir W W. Wyntl, liart,. was sworn into the office of Mayor for llie Town and Borough of Oswestrv for the year ensuing. The procession moved frotii the " Guildhall at two' o'clock, attended by the Denbigh Band, to Church, where a very ap- propriate discourse was delivered by the Rev. Stephen Donhe, from the 2d Samuel c. 23, aiid fhe latter part of the 3d verse; after which, about 100 gentlemen, consisting of the Corporation, friends, and well- wishers of thc worthy Baronet, partook of a most sumptuous dinner at the WynnstSiy Arms Inn. The Mayor was Supported 011 his left, by the Viscount Clive, William Ormsby Gore, F. sq. the Rev. Dr. Donne, & c. and ou his right by C. W. W. Wynn, Esq. Richard Tyrwhitt, Esq. & c. & c. Shropshire General Quarter Sessions. We have Ihe pleasure to state, that a long pending Chancery suit of a lease of some valuable coal mines on the estate of W. B. Price, Esq. of Mytton Hall, near this town, is now ended ; and lhat the' works are open, which produce a supply of good Coals, at Berlfan Dig, near Chirk, in this county. It appears also, thata re/ orwi meeting had been held at Derby 011 the day ( Saturday) on which the out- rages al that place commenced. We regret to slate, that 011 Friday last, three labour- ing men, named Meyrick, Bowdler, and Evans, em- ployed iu conveying stone in a boat down the river Severn, were unfortunately drowned by the sinking of thc boat, near Rossatl. A fellow- labourer saved him- self by swimming ashore.— 1The body of Meyrick was taken out. of the liver 011 Sunday last; aud 011 the same day, the body of Thomas Jervis was taken out of thc river, into which he is supposed to have' fallen by accident, 011 Thursday night', the Gth inst. To the Editor of the Salopian Journal. Sinj A statement of the most disgraceful and calumnious nature appeared in the last Shrewsbury Chronicle.— Speaking of the South Salopian Regiment of Yeomanry Cavalry, the Editor of that Paper most insidiously charges them with being destitute of that subordin- ation which is the first qualification of soldiers. He says— Thc defeat of the Reform Bill was a source of " expressed regret to the great majority of the regi- " ment, who in all companies testified their disappoint- " ment at the result, and in many individual instances " declared their determination ' never to draw a " sword against a Reformer.'" The meaning of this paragraph is too obvious to be mistaken. But, Sir, What is the fact?

RESIGNATION 1— During the late debate in the House'of Lords, the Globe, the most respectable of the Ministerial Evening Papers, said—' if there is a large majority against the Reform Bill, it will become the duty of the Ministers to resign.'— The duty of resign- ation is, however, one that the Ministers are very unwilling to practise ! On Tuesday morning the Committee 011 the Dublin Election decided lhat I ord Ingestre and Mr. Shaw, the Aiiti- llefuniiers, had been duly I elected. claration was applauded hy a man who is shopman to the Printer of the Chronicle, by the person who seconded the nomination of Mr. Potter as a Candidate at the late Borough Election, by a radical book- hinder, an ironmaster's clerk, a singing maltster, and some others of the same calibre who chanced to be present. The shopman, no doubt, carried the affair to his master; and thus the folly of one incompetent member of the regiment has been made the ground- work for libelling the whole, than whom a more loyal or more orderly body of men does not exist. 1 am, Sir, Your's, & c.

R H. Clive, J. A. I. Loyil, Esq. Rev. Townshend Forester, D. D. J. T Hope, Esq. A. V. Corbet, Esq. Edward Cludde, Esq. B. Flounders, Esq. Rev. Oswald Ixycester, Thomas Harries, Esq. Rev. J. A.

William Chirllon, Esq. Philip Charlton, Esq. Rev. C. Walcot, Jo 111 Edwards, Esq. T. N. Parker, Esq. & c. & c. The Chairman congratulated the Grand Jury fhat there was 110 case of importance to come under their consideration, a circumstance not more creditable to the police, than to the morality and intelligence of the county. He hail also to observe, that at this Sessions all the depositions had been received, for which, as it tended so much to the relief of those who had to take cognizance of Ihe offences charged, he took the opportunity of thanking Ihe Magistrates and their Clerks— Addressing himself to one class of Cases that appeared in the calendar, he cautioned the Gentlemen of the Grand Jury as to thc reception of uncorroborated confessions— The lion. Chairman then referred to an absurd and most, false rumour which had obtained in the Hundred of Oswestry, that Government intended to tax Friendly Societies; in consequence, several Clubs had come to a determina- tion to divide their funds: and he here cautioned the members of such of these institutions as had adopted this determination how they made their divisions— inasmuch as they had in some cases resolved upon an equal division, although, in all enrolled societies, tbe law required that the division should be made under the direction of an actuary, and in proportion to the payments and other circumstances of each individual, in default of which the trustees, stewards, & c. would incur a seriotis responsibility — Hie Hon. Chairman concluded by observing that ihe New Game Act would come into operation on tlife 1st of November; and that all persons intending to take out licenses to sell game under that Act, for the ensuing year, must take out such licenses before the 1st of November next The Couri then proceeded with the trial of appeals But the only case Of interest that occurred was that Of the parish of Keel, in the county of Stafford, against the parish of Wellington,— The case set up by the appellants was, that the pauper had been removed to the wrong place, for that he had a settlement in Davvley, where he had been employed for a considerable period in a Coal- field, Sec. under the usual hiring of a certain rate of wages per day, and where Ihere was what is called a field- rule that a labourer should not leave his employment without giving a fortnight's notice, although no such actual stipulation vvas proved as between the pauper now before the Court and the employer.— Mr. Whateley for the appellants, contended that this description of hiring and service was such as would confer a settle- ment, and had been so held under similar circum- stances, in a case tried at the last Staffordshire Sessions; Mr. Bather, for the respondents, maintained that this was not that description of service that would give a settlement, and that the Magistrates of this county had in a formercase of exactly this descrip- tion ; o decided.— The Bench, with one exception, concurred in confirming the or. lfT: but, 011 the application of Mr. Whateley, they granted a ease for thc consideration of the Court of King's Bench — Mr. Bather then observed, that no judgment of the Court above on the evidence this day adduced would decide this class of cases, inasmuch as in these coal- fields the men were often employed only one portion of the week, and that circumstance, which formed no part of the present case, would furnish ground for future argument, but would not in the present instance conic under the consideration of the Court above. John Griffiths, aged 63, pleaded guilty to an in- dictment charging him with stealing girths at Aston Botterell, and a back chain at Cleobury North. He had been thrice convicted at Worcester, and once at Shrewsbury, for previous offences ; but, being too old to he transported, he vvas now sentenced to two year imprisonment to hard labour. George Welch, for stealing 2lbs. of mutton, at Hod- net, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to 14 days imprisonment to hard labour. Richard Griffiths, for stealing apparel at High Fr call, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to one month' imprisonment. Thomas Owens ( an Irishman) vvas found guilty of having in the night- time, broken into the shop of Mr. Joseph Haslain, at Drayton, and stolen 26lbs. weight of hair.— The prisoner was caught in the fact, iu consequence of bis brother, named Snowdon Owens, having given information that the robbery was in tended. For this, tbe prisoner, while in custody, expressed a determination to wash his hands in his brother's blood if he had an opportunity. He con fessed that he knew a placc where he could have fenced the hair until he had an opportunity Of taking it to Birmingham, where he would have sold it for some blue bits, which he could have smashed in Dray toil: lie was then to have been met in Drayton by a cross- cove, with whom he intended to go to Kilkenny, in Ireland, and there to crack the Bank, so that he should have rolled in gold.— He also said he had not been in Drifyton for 13 years previous, and 5 years ahd * l months of that period he had spirit in various gaols!— It vvas now proved that he had been con- victed of felony at Stafford, in 1825, anil sentenced to two years' imprisonment; and at Shrewsbury, in 18* 27, and sentenced to one year's imprisonment.— He had also been imprisoned in our Couniy Gaol for deserting his family. 11c was therefore, for his present offence, sentenced to 14 years' transportation. William Roberts, for stealing wearing apparel at Bridgnorth, was sentenced to be imprisoned 6 weeks to ha. cl labour. Sarah Peuie and Thomas Pratt were found guilty of robbing the dwelling- house of Thomas Jones ( brbihCr- in- law of the female prisoner), at the Trench, near I'- Ilesmercj aitd were sentenced to 3 months' imprisonment. Edward I. owe, a horse- keeper in the employment of Mr. Isaac Taylor, nt Shiffiial, was found guilty of stealing a quantity of oats and beans, the property of his masler. On Ihe part of the prosecutor, it was stated that he believed the prisoner intended to give the oats, & c. to his ( Mr. T.' s) horses; but there had been so much plunder of t'. iis kind, that he found it necessary fo make an example ; at the same time recommending the prisoner to Uicrcy. He was, therefore, sentenced to 1 month's imprisonment to hard labour. Thomas Wiclistead, for stealing a shirt, at Drayton, was sentenced to be imprisoned 14 days to hard labour John Rost ( au iterant singer of psalms and hymns) was found guilty of stealing' a drake, thc property of Mr. Thomas Peplovv of Moreton Say, and was senten- ced to he imprisoned 6 months to hard labour. John Brown ( against whom there were three in- dictments), vvas found guilty of stealing a pair of trowsers, at Whitchurch, and sentenced to be impri- soned 6 months to hard labour. Sarah Ralphs ( against whom there were two in- dictments) was found guilty of stealing a gown from a hedge, at Great Bolas.— She had been imprisoned twice before, once on covictiou for felt ny, and once for a misdemeanor.— She vvas now sentenced to be transported 7 years. John. Fleet croft, for stealing a pair of shoes and a hat, at Bishop's Castle, vvas sentenced to be imprisoned 1 month to hard labour. William Tomkins, for stealing a drake and a duck, at Loppington, vvas s. ntenced to be imprisoned 1 month to hard labour. Samuel Sankey, for stealing a turkey, the property of John Hincksman, Esq. at Weslwood, was sentenced to be imprisoned 14 days to hard labour.— Matthew Peck, charged as an accomplice, received a good character, and was acquitted.— A man named IIoil- man, who appeared to have In en the principal ill the robbery, has not been apprehended. Mr. Littleton's Bili, for the abolition of the truck system, has now passed both houses of Parliament, and only awaits the Royal assent to become law. In three months after the Royal assent has been given lo the Bill it will come into operation. ENIGMATICAL LIST OF UNMARRIED LADIES lit a Town twelve miles S. E. of Shrewsbury. 1.

WAJLES. DIED. Lately, in Chester, in the 74th year of her age, Mary, relict of the lale Rice Jones, Esq. of New Hall, Rhuabon. To the Editor of the Salopian Journal. Sin;— I thank your rustic correspondent for the trouble he took in going to Chirbury to inform 1 He of the " rejection" of the Stone ( typical of that of the Bill, according to the quid Trojan's wish), an account of which, however, I had before received from the little ' Squire, who, finding me 011 the wing, insisted on lyoniznig me 011 my intended " gland towt'r," as he called it. He has just now rejoined me after a trip home, to " see how the. land lies," and he has beard that conjec- ture has been busy in trying to prick me out, and'that to the many " I guess" •- various names have been attached, while opinion has been divided on another point, which 1 should pass by were it not more mate- rial ; for " tho' I say it that shotild not say it; yet I do say it," I am not " an ill- natured old curmudgeon"— ( the young ladies do not offend me bv their charitable zeal for the young Member of the Cloth)— nor am I one of those ( too many) individuals who go about raking and showing up scandal from the mere love of mischief, turning the misfortunes and disadvantages to ridicule. No; Sir.; as Billy Lat'kaday says, " I scorns tile hact:" but when a person commits art outrage against all good principle' and feeling, by turning thc advantages he has received fo a breach of his allegi- ance, the offender must not be surprised if, on the impulse excited by it, l; is progress be somewhat un- conrteously arrested; Whether- your correspondent's suspicion be well founded or not ( my facetious little friend says " it is not the first time wc Louilanders have been, astonished), I will only add, that be the handy work whose it may. it shewed a religious turpi- tude amounting to a moCkCry of Him who thiis enjoins us—" Reverence my holy Sanctuary." " But let it pass,' 1 and to my " grand tower" of Si: Trefaldwyn. Nay,- startle not, Mr. Editor, for I ain not going to be so simple as to retail that which in these days of free trade c4n be so easily dealt out wholesale ; for' I'll make a tour, and then I'll write it. No; no— 1 am not going to efilighlen you at so cheap a rate. 1 will only now avail myself of the opportunity of expressing the heartfelt gratification I have ex| ieri- enced in noting the great, solid; and lasting improve- ments which have taken place in the county since my last visit,- vvheiiy from a series of misfortunes and difficulties sustained by it, in common with other places, itl consequence of the sudden transition from war to, peace, it was almost prostrated in the dust. And yet, Sir ( so true it is that " what God makes the Devil mars") even here has the'enemy been sowing Ins tares, and the pugherile pughpits of the " Grey Frankenstein''— the ' preternatural Keeper of His Majesty's Conscience ( which Heaven preserve), have been Irving to ensnare those of liis liege subjects by that " chaff" of" the Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill," which, after being turned into anything but the Bill, has at last ( thanks to those to whom they are due) been turned inside out. For one thing, I was not prepared to find that the ". march of intellect" had so much " progressed" at New Lanark, and it was with a triumphant strut, that my friend ushered me into their Zoological Gardens; and, as a farewell to all their greatness, he brought me to the Lyon's den, and into it lie would have gone had I not Cried " back"— he's, as Mr. Bowbell says," so wery wenturesome." Upon my remonstrating with him, he ( with a knowing look) pointed to his Coat pocket, where I found an old stomach pump, which he had, unknown to me, purchased at the Dispensary, and observed, " no sooner down than up, like possum up a gum- tree." On examining the Instrument, how- ever, I discovered that he also had been imposed upon for there was no ramrod, as he called it, " What say vou now says I. " Verily. I should have been done browne," says he. Oh ! the boy, he'll be the death of OLD MORTALITY. NEWTOWN. SALE POSTPONED.

During the past week the arrivals of Grain have been to a fair extent. Tuesday's market was pretty well at- tended, and there being a very small display of new Wheat on the stands, a further advance on this article was demanded in the early part of the market, which, however, was not complied with, and sales were effect- ed only to a moderate extent, at the advance above noted; fine new Oats were fully Id. per 451b. higher; and sales to a very limited extent were made of old Wheat, Flour, and of all other articles, at the prices of the preceding week, Whe » t( 70lb.) 8s.

WHAT IS REFORM> This is a question imifcli more easily put tlnin answered. But we have the authority of Lord Brougham himself for saying that Reform is not to be found in Ihe provisions of the ' Me Reform Bill, lit our 4th page we have inserted Lord Brougham's de- liberate vicn- s of what he coiiceives to be Reform;. and it will be seen that as different as light is from dark, or black from white, so far do Lord Brougham's own views differ from the propositions of the Reform Bill. The letter of Lord Brougham was written, it will be observed, sortie years ago, but there has 110 one cir- cumstance arisen, nor occurrence taken plate, Since that period, lhat can at all affect the validity of his lordship's arguments. In the Same page of out' Journal, in addition ft) the " Philip sctirr' 1 of Lord Broughnfn, as compared to the " Philip drunk" of his s'peeCll on the Reforni Bill, will be fottnd a record of Hie deliberate sentiments of Earl Grey, I .' ml Joint Russell; arid our present most gracious Sovereign, With reference to difference of opinion between the House of Lords and fhe House of Commons.— A perusal; and due considera- tion of them, Will be Of riiucli interest at the present moment.

THE RIOTS AT NOTTINGHAM. the intelligence of the rejection of the Reform Bill reached Nottingham on Saturday night at a late hour. The UeSt day various groups congregated in different jiarts of the town, and towards evenifig assumed a threatening aspect. Sdttori, the Editor ofthe Radical Paperj having published a list of some twenty Of the names who had signed the Petition against Reform, afforded the mob an excellent opportunity of singling out individuals to visit their hostility upon. The house of Mr. Wright, li most respectable bookseller in the Market- place, was amongst the first attacked. The front windows wete destroyed, the shop door forced, and the valuable collection of books and general stock torn, destroyed, or carried off'. His politics were alwajs considered ( 0 savour of Whiggism, but then he had dared to sign the Anti Reform Address.— Tile windows of Mr. Stretton,• ( the proprie- tor of the Nottingham JournaliJ Dr. Manson, and those of many others distinguished for their virtues or their Tory principles, were similarly visited. Dr. Manson, one of tbe most amiable and best men in Nottingham, was intended to be waylaid on his return from the evening Itcture ut St. Mary's Church, where he usually attends. Their design, however, was happily frustrated by his accidental attendance at St. PeterV, in Consequence of a charity sermon being preached there. Notwitlmtanding these Infamous excesses no arrests took place. The Hussars under Cot. ThackviLe had b- en summoned to Derby, where the Town Gai 1 was forced and the prisoners set at liberty.

The countrymen used some fisly- cnff arguments, when the thimble- men gave the signal to their tribe for assistance ; and about fifty of them rallied, and gave the ru tics a drubbing, rffio fetfeated with qilantum tuff, of broken heads. A sort uf truce rather than a peace succeeded, until the races had closed ; when a number of horsemen joined the labourers, and formed a dense Column in close order, and a regular charge wil* made on the line of marquees, tents, stalls, camp carts; caravans, and gambling set- outs of netjr description, " flic mob broke up thimble tables ami stalls for weapons, aud then smashed all the standings ; scattering a variety of merchandise, in the shape of prizes, of all sorts und grffdesy po'efcet hOoki, watches, and tea pots, in evefy flireiuOtr, wbicli becanfe the • Crumbling prey of rite ft; woifieri; arrif children J to- Kmg diCe, tctotttmS; & c. hi company with showers of gingerbread buttons and Shrewsbury cakes, with a melee of other sweets, into the air.

Finally, the victors made a rush on the gaudy litatqUeCs, and glittering tents and camp ; broke in upon th'e banks, seized the bushels of glittering gold and silver, which became even the feather beds were brought on the lawn, ripped open, and the feathers scattered to the winds'. The only cause of enmity that can he alleged against Mr. Musters is, that he has always been active in dis- charging his magisterial duties, arid particularly convicting some daring gangs of ptiacliers; with politics lie never interfered, and was not in Mr. Sutton's proscribed list. After attempting to tire the mansion, all attempt, however, which did not succeed,- this villainous multitude proceeded to Nottingham ; there the demolition of windows again began, and Continued uninterrupted!) until seven o'clock, when cries of " To the Castle" resounded through tbe Market- place. Onwards these desperadoes moved, flushed with conquest, and encouraged by the seem- ing apathy with which their movements were fOgarded. The Castle lodge gates soon yielded to tbe assailants; these wete taken from the hinges and laid prostrate Lights were here procured, and m> mbers ran w'rtli theni up the flight of steps which leads to the grand entrance, lu half aii hour this magnificent structure was in a blaze of frightful effulgence which w ill nevei be forgot by those who witnessed it. As the flames moved through the grand suite of state apartments which were lined w ith cedar and bung with tapestry, the scene Waj terrific. The streams of boiling lead came down in torrents, and it is said two persons were dreadfully scalded. So powerful a light was shed around that at SneintOn, two mibudistant, it resembled an universal illumination of the atmosphere, and flic falling of different portions of the roof resembled the teport of the loudest thunder. _ _ It will seem almost incredible that no interruption tl,<? common l, rey ot" 0,1 n" xcl1 111 , hc scramble, was given to these incendiares; all night were they T1' e lnI, l'quce9 !"" 1 tents were torn to tatters, and employed in the work of destruction, and niHit be arlicle of furniture smashed, wlieri S common plainly heard iti the middle of the town hreakin- up was made of all the combustible material wood to fire those parts Which had escapcd the fury of ", c r,, in' aml se< fire trt' T1, e numl, er of casualties —- a r ' lis considerable. Several severe cases arc in the hospital; but the toss must be ruinous to hundreds, of the first conflagration. Ori Tuesday little opposition had been offered to these wretches lliat they were emboldened to visit Beeston; where they destroyed a silk- mill belonging to Mr. Lowe, which will throw three hundred persons out of employ. They threatened Lord Middleton's splendid mansion, but precautions had been taken to assemble the colliers, and lo plant some Cannon at the gate ; thus intimidated, the mob moved foward. On Wedne- day,- the return of CoLnel Tbtckfrlllc and the exertions of the Cavalry and Magistrates, succeeded ill restoring quiet— The damage done by these riots is calculated to ariiouut to between fifty and sixty thousand pounds. Many persons have lieCn takeri into custody, and apprehensions of sus- pected characters are almost hourly taking place. In consequence of the disturbances, the Races, which were to have commenced 011 Tuesday last, have been postponed until next year. Tbe castle was the property of the Duke of New- castle, and, as it was . seldom inhabited, it cost His Grace about £ 200 a year lo keep it in order.— It is who make their living iu going the circuit of the raccs. Several respectable individuals were taken into custody, under charges of plunder or vlolence anil indictments will be preferred against them at the nsuing Sessions. Providing true bills be returned, those indictments will by certiorari be removed into the Court of King's Bench. It is probable, therefore, that the defendants will be tried at the next Assizes. Mr. Harmer, the Bint- street and Old Bailey lawyer, is retained for the prosecution. CU. EBLI.

A letter from Nottingham, in fefefencc to the atrocities committed in that town and vicinity says- " These specimens of reforming moderation were the result of a meeting held by a few desperate deriia. gogues, alike bankrupt in fame and fortune, Who have long infested Nottingham ; at which if was determined, in case the Reforni Bill were lost, each of tliern should collect a body of tbe operatives, incite them by every inflammatory speech that occurred to these mob orators to make, and then turn therit loose upon Ihe town ; arid the above is the result of their machin- ations." Of the many excellent results which we expect from the discussion of the Reforni Bill in the l. ords, one of tlie most important will be that the people will become accustomed to the distinction between' Reforni and the Reform Bill.

To the Editor of the Salopian Journal, Sift, Permit me, ( liroiiali the medium of your respect- able Journal, to otter a few remarks On llie recently published account ofthe Liverpool aud Manchester it ail u ay. Although, from the predictions of persons con- versant wilh the use of machinery, and practically experienced in Ihe details of Railways, the public were piepared for the announcement ofa heavy amount of expenditure, few, I believe, anticipated I hut il would have reached the enormous sum which this account exhibits. For Ihe carriage ofa ton of merchandize thirty- two miles, the expenses are stated at 7s. 7d. For the conveyance of passengers thirty miles, 2s. Ojd. each. The profits are said lo be 2s. 7d. each passenger, nnd 2s. 8d. each ton of good* The average charge for passengers heiug 4s. 7id. each, and for a ton of merchandize 10s., 3d, making the total profits for the half year, ending 30th June I st, On Passengers £ 2- 1,463 11 - 0 Merchandize 5,<><" 2 3 4 Coals.......... 158 18 6 And the expenses, Passengers..... Merchandize...-. Bal. supposed on Coals 30,314 13 7 10,130 15 10,182 16 59 7 35,376 0 0 Gross receipts for the half year.... £ 65,663 13 7 Now, Sir, this account is conclusive of the ques- tion ofa cairiage of merchandize upon Railways iu competition with Canals; for along a Canal of equal length with this Railway, viz. thirty- two miles, a ton of merchandize can he, and is, conveyed at an expense of 2s. 8d.; while all heavy articles, and such articles constitute nineteen- twcnticths ( I beg you lo bear iu mind the proportion) of Canal car- riage, are conveyed the like dislaucc at au expense of is. 4d. only, instead of 7s. 7d. as stated iu this account!!• In this comparison, tonnage dues, being excluded iu Ihe Railway expenses, are also excluded in the Caunl expenses. lt is manifest, therefore, from their own shewing, that Railways can never carry goods iu opposition to Canals of nearly their own length. lt is in fact doubtful, whether the Liverpool and Manchester Railway is not, at present, sustaining n loss by the carriage of goods, instead of realizing even the small profit which their account shews. At 4s, 7jd. each, the sum received fur passengers gives the number 189,393.+ Averaging these at cwt. or 12 sloue each, including luggage, gives Tons. Iheir wcitiht 14,204 Merchandize at 10s. 3d. per 42,080 Total weight 50,884 As then 56,884 tons, the total weight, is to £ 35,379, the tolal expences ; so is 42,680 tons, Ihe weight of merchandize, to £ 26,544, the expences with which it ought to be charged ; being more than 12s. 5d. per ton. Expense of conveying merchandize £. would thus appear lobe. 20,544 Receipts for ditto, 21,875 Loss in the half year. .. | 4,069 If it be areued, that in consequence of Ihe superiority of the carriages, and the greater velocity of movement, a larger expense per ton is incurred in the conveyance of passengers, than iu the conveyance of merchandize; 1 reply, that such extra expences of passengers are more than counterbalanced by the greater wear and tear of hcovy weights ; by the establishment of ware- houses ; by the loading and unloading; ; and other incidentals attendant upon the carriage of mer- chandize. It is, at all events, abundantly clear, that from passengers Ihe emoluments of Railways must be derived, aud, notwithstanding, it is shewn that where 1050 per day of these can be calculated > pon, along fhe entire length of a Railway, as in the case ( while the novelty lasts) of the Liverpool and Manchester, a large revenue inay be collected ; ii is far from being established, that even then the scheme will ultimately prove a profitable specula tiou. The first nine mouths will indicate any thiug but the maximum of wear and tear, either of road or of engines. SCRUTATOR. 13M October, 1831. * If the Railway merchandize is charged with proportion of the interest of cash borrowed, the amount of such charge should, in this comparison, be deducted from the 7s, 7d, f If more passengers are conveyed in the inferior than in the superior trains, the total number will be somewhat more than this, but it can make little differ- ence in the calculation. + Deducting interest, if interest is charged, would reduce this sum, though the account would still exhibit a loss, Itarliaancirtarg Reform. Iu the course of the late Parliamentary discussion, l ord Brougham took Ihe opportunity of staling that Ihe Reform Hill then before Parliament was not ihe plan which lie had proposed.— The follow- ing letter written by his Lordship several years ago points nut in very strong terms the difference iu principle between the ideas of Lord Brougham nnd the revolutionary measure of Earl Grey:— Albany, London, April 28,1810. My dear Sir,— The subject of parliamentary re- form is so soon to come before Ihe House of Com- mons, and is one of so great importance to Ihe country, that I trust you will excuse, or rather approve of, the anxiety which prompts me to ask the assistance of your opinion in making up my own, and also iu forming an estimate of the sense of the people in your neighbourhood. I sluill begin by taking for granted that some reform is desirable, and that the more the consti- tution of parliament can be improved the better. The question is, what should be done iu this, and how we should have the best chance of doing most for the cause ? I certainly shall not much, without reluctance, obtrude my opinion upon the House of Commons, and I ain still more averse to be the author of any specific proposition on so grave a subject. But if 1 can persuade no one of belter pretensions lo undertake il, I am so deeply im- pressed wilh the HI consequences of persisting in ihe former errors of reformers, to which I see the popular parly out of doors more wedded than ever, lhat I flcl it my indispensable duty to step forward iu order to save the cause from a certainty of being once more ruined by its friends. For half a century the question has been agitated, and not without the support of all the most eminent men in parliament and the couniry. Strange to tell, no progress, not a Btep gained, at least not a step forward ; nay, until very lately, all care about it was gone, and the most important of question's elicited no hind of interest. This leads one to suspect a radical error in the plans aud principles of reformers, and I am persuaded that error is as follows:— They have dealt too much iu generals— their plans have either been too vague and undefined, or loo large, so very large as lo hear no stamp of caution, and give no fair hopes of success. In other branches of legislation ire go gently, reform evils gradually, aud are content with doing the lesser good that is practicable rather than grasp at the greater which is beyond our reach. In I his greatest aud most momentous subject alone we have no moderation, will be satisfied with nothing short of complete success, and arc resolved to have all or nothing. I. e : ce many doubts of our really caring much about it, and many fears uf our imprudence, have arisen iu the minds of those who do not doubl of our good and zealous intentions. We have a constitution not very perfect certainly, but cdutain- iuir so much of excellence as should incline ns rather lo amend than to neiv model. Our House of Commons in particular is inadequate toils functions, but it affords so many real checks to the crown, so much substantial protection to the people, that, if its evils are net really quite incurable, we should prefer healing to amputation. We should lake the system aud cure its defects. We have a machinery already ; let us improve it— let ns at least try if it can be improved before we break it. up, and try another on a principle quite different and unknown. 1 believe Ihe question of changing the whole System of the representation, that is, of the constitution, is Ihe only one iu the history of politics, from a general taw down to a road bill, w hich has never been dis- cussed with any caution and fear, aud never suggested to any man the necessity of going to work, mending piecemeal, before you began with destruction and rc- production. Now, seeing this to have produced no good, and being a sincere friend of reform, 1 am for profiting by past experi- ence, and trying what can be done iu a new and more ordinary way. When Sir Samuel Romillv began to amend the bankrupt laws, he brought in a bill for subjecting freehold estates to the diligence of creditors— a tnost partial and narrow reform; and yet many thought it too large, so many that it was lost, and he only succeeded in carrying next session a very limited part of the same measure. Had he begun by moving for a general reform of all abuses in the law of debtur and creditor, or even, like my worthy friend Mr. Brand, for a committee on the bankrupt laws, every trader in England would have been alarmed, aud all lawyers at least would have opposed him. So now, iu attempting the reform of our criminal law, he confines himself to the intro- duction of two measures, which, though important iu themselves, bear so small a proportion lo Ihe Whole of the abuses to be corrected, that zealots for reform would scarcely condescend to look at them; yet that great lawyer and enlightened senator well knows the danger of rapid legislation; he is aware that it may be worse to cure too quickly than lo endure a little longer; and he can see no reason for moving most swiftly ou the most slip- pery ground when the precipice is nearest aud the gulf deepest. A beginning is the ( treat object ; Ihe first is here the step which costs; and. above all things, a sincere and virtuous reformer, one who wishes to do good, and has a higher ambition than to make a noise, one who wants to hare a reform and no clamour, will avoid whatever may bring his cause into contempt or disrespect; lie will there- fore beware bolh of proposing plans whose magni- tude may alarm, and of going so far all at once as to run the risk of dointr irreparable mischief bc- fore exp rienee can administer its corrections. Looking at the House of Commons with these views, iny object wonld naturally be to find out its chief defects, and to attempt the remedy of these one by one— to propose no system— no great project- nothing which pretended even to the name of a plan— but. fo introduce in a temperate and concili- ating manner, before the end of ihe session, or. c or two separate bills, intended lo cure as many acltr. ow ledged evils, and to have those bills for further discussion during fhe vacation— to let them die altogether if not approved of by the wiser part of mankind, or to revive them next sessiou with such improvements as the discussion of the intervening summer wonld suggest. One mighl be given np nntl another carried ; all time far reflection would, be afforded ; a decent caution, at any rate, would mark so grave a pro ceeding-, and either the outrageous reformers of the day would see that parliament was disposed to amend itself, or the well- meaning part of their followers would see it and be reclaimed. A man must be blind to Ihe state of public opinion not to think this a safer way of protecting parliament than those at present in vogue. lie must be far gone in zeal not to see that this is the only attain- able reform, and that any other, if attainable, would be little desirable. The first of these bills should be a place bill,- not Certainly to exclude fhe ministers and principal members of the Boards from the House of Commons, for their presence there is the best check to the executive, and is, moreover, the only conceivable way of carrying on public business; but a hill for limiting the numbers of inferior placemen, such as puisne Lords of the Treasury and Admiralty, Board of Control, and leaving the head of each and a leading member. Those inferior persons at present enjoy mere sinecures. They do nothing bat vote. They are made Lords of Ihe Treasury, & c. not be- cause there is anything for them to do, or because they are fit for it if there were, but because they can get into parliament, and will, by their offices, be always within call and ready to vote. They are paid nominally for sinecurc place*, really for ministerial voles. They are a dead weight on every division, because, being always on the spot, and ( Veil disciplined and paid, they are equal to three times as many irregulars or volunteers. If fifteen or twenty of these were excluded, first, the boards would be filled with able officers, and would be- come effective; and next, the overgrown influence of Ihe house would he sensibly diminished. Second- ly, a bill for reforming the representation of the Scotch counties. In Scotland no law ever was passed similar to our statute of Westminster 3d, commonly called quia emptcris, and no check was ever imposed upon subinfeudations. Hence the real property of the land and the feudal superiority are quite distinct and separable from each other. One man may hold, and does constantly hold, the superiority, and another the property, but the former alone can vote for a member. It is as if a man were lord of a manor ( in England) which was entirely parcelled out into copyholds and received in quit rents, waifs, & c. 40s. yearly from his copy- holders. Without an acre in land in his manor he alone could vote, his revenue being little more than nominal, while the copyholders would have no votes, though they might possess estates of £ 10,000 a- year each. Thus iii Scotland a man sells his lands and keeps his vote, or sells his vote and keeps his land, and ( hus all Ihe connty members might be chosen by a few rich Jews born in England, resid- ing in London or Amsterdam, or by one such Jew. This is an extreme case, bul the real evils are great. It has followed, first, that the voters are few in number, in the largest about 150, in others 40 or 50, ill some 14 to 20, in one 11, in one a single voter, aud as it happens, no person eligible, for ( he voter is a judge, and only one votes, but can be elected; such, at least, was the case last election. Even in the most populous counties a compromise takes place between a few leading families who can make more votes nl pleasure, and in whose hands numbers of the existing voters are. Secondly, il has follow- ed, lhat many very wealthy landholders in every parish have no votes at al!; but, thirdly, and chiefly, that a traffic is established in votes, most hurtful both to the voter and the member, the country and the parliament; for a man buys a vote in a county where there are few, aud where parlies are nearly balanced. It is a source of revenue to him; it provides his children with cornelcies, eadetcies, and writerships— his dependents with places in the Excise and Customs— his widow and daughter with pensions. The member is a slaya;; suppose him ever so independent himself, ( aud this is supposing a great deal,) he must be eternally at the Minister's levee for places to his voters; it is the tenure by which he sils, aud again he Can only get those places by service in the House of Com- mons; he must be constantly at the vote; it is the tenure by which he gets his places; all the morn- ing at Downing- street at the minister's feet, all night in the house at the minister's back. Such is his life, such it must be, but such it is in real fact. The thirty Scotch county members are as regular their attendance and votes as the fifteen or twenty inferior placemen. You find them always there. In a house of seventy members, perhaps Ihe average of the session, 1 dare venture lo say you will find thirty Scotch, the right of proportion being Only four to five: this includes the borough as well as connty members, but 1 am speaking of the latter ouly. Now why should uot this gross abuse be done away? Why not restore the Scotch counties lo the same fooling wilh the English which they originally had, and which Ihey would still have had if there had been a law against sub- infeudatious made by the Scotch parliament. I will mention another fact, though it may be invidious. lu Ihe first division on Walcheren the opposition had thirty- nine English county members, twenly- six Irish, and five Scotch. The ministry had 37 English county members, 20 Irish, and no less than 20 Scotch. In the other divisions the majority of English couuty members was considerably greater, but the total of counties was for government by means of the Scotch members. The advantage of this plan would be, that it pledges us to no English reform which any man objects to; it does little more than bring things to the former level between the two countries, ft is not very unpopular. It was patronized by a large society in Scotland in 1791 and 1/ 92, al the head of which were the Chief Baron and the Lord Advocate, ( Mr. Dundas,) now Chief Baron. It would greatly improve the cha- racter and station of Scotland, but chiefly it would improve the parliament. Thirdly, the English copyholders should be rendered eleclors on the same principle; they are excluded on Ihe same feudal principles which exclude the Scotch vassal proprietors, viz. because their ancestors were vil- leins and vassals when the lesser barons first elected representatives; they should clearly be allowed to vote, though the qualification might be made higher than in freeholders. But beyond this trivial change wc are not called to go by previous and more important alteration in Scotch rights of election. Lastly, it is advisable to lay the founda- tion of a Scotch aud English borough reform, but with infinite caution, and avoiding a principle of disfranchisement above every thing. Edinburgh is the only Scotch town which chooses a member; the other towns are thrown into districts, each borough choosing a delegate, and the whole delegates from each district choosing the member who represents Ihe borough. All the boroughs, and Edinburgh and Glasgow as well an the rest, are quite close, the corporations or magistrates alone electing ( to this there is one exception, viz. Stirling, which was thrown open for bribery thirty years ago). Now it would be better to begin merely with giving Edinburgh a popular election there. There are serious objections to, what at first might seem desir- able, giving Glasgow a similar reform, for that town is one of the boroughs which elect a member amongst Ihem, and it could not have its own election without disfranchising the others. Edinburgh chooses a member itself, and in throwing it open you only invade the rights of the corporation, a change which would be a small price for the bene- fits lo be purchased by it. The population of Edin- burgh is very singularly composed-— eight thousand people without trade or manufactures, with a large and enlightened body of lawyers and clergy, a famous and flourishing university, and the winter residence of all the considerable landholders of Scotland, lt is nearer what Dablin will be ( from similar causes) than any other place in the empire, and it is peculiarly well calculated for a popular election. Such an election would improve the elec tions all over Scotland, and the success of the ex- periment, so partially tried, would secure a favour- able reception for subsequent improvements. More- over it would nbt commit you to any scheme of indefinite borough reform in England— it Would only oblige yon to give a representation to some one or two great towns, as Manchester or Birming- ham, as soon us some borough like Muldon in Essex lost its character by expiration, which I believe w ill soon happen there, or as soon as Old Sarum could be purchased by the couniry! " Disfranchisement is the word of all others to be avoided on the present occasion. It is the worst enemy of all practical reform. " Should it be determined to go beyond this partial and unambitious measure, the voluntary sale of some English boroughs and Scotch corporate rights might furnish the means of giving not only several other towns, ns Leeds, or Sheffield, a repre- sentation, hut of adding to the county members, as by giving Yorkshire two or three, Lancashire one or two, additional members. But for a first slep, 1 am very clear that the four bills enumerated above, or, including a provision respecting Maldou and Manchester, the five bills, are enough to begin with, and should satisfy the most sanguine reformer who seriously wishes an improvement in parliament. Then let us stop and see, and try. In bringing forward such a plan we must give up all hopes of satisfying fhe more violent political reformers of the day. They will call it a trick— a job— a sub- terfuge— a collusion, and every thing most op- probrious ; we shall be infinitely more abused than if ice did nothing at all. If hat is worse, such idle clamours wilt, for awhile, dupe ihe well meaning reformers in most places. Hut in the end we shall reclaim the latter from the influence of their mis- leaders, and shall have the ultimate support of all whose honesty and good, sense makes their support, worth havingi To such immediate clamours, how- ever, must the temperate reformer expose himself, and for meeting such rewards must he make up his mind. There is no help for it. Had a rational scheme, like the one above sketched out, been soon proposed, in all probability they would not have existed, at least it is certain that Ihe grounds for them would have been removed, 1 am extremely desirous of your candid sentiments and those of your friends on the above outline. I have pur- posely avoided too many details, and even sup- pressed material parts of each bill, in order to give it iu the general and more concisely. The propriety, for example, under the first measures of rendering places during pleasure, which are conferred by boards as well as those granted by the crown, a ground for vacating a seat in parliament, is too obvious to escape notice; they come clearly within the meaning ofthe statute. Why should a lordship of Ihe treasury vacate ( worth £ 1,500), and not the secretaryship, worth thrice the sum? May 1 beg your early attention to this matter, as it is my wish to make up my mind on it without delay. I have only to add, that shonld the above plan be deemed advisable, 1 shall endeavour to find some persons of due weight and consideration to bring it forward. I shall be ready to assist and support it, and my reason for stepping forward with it, or for intend- ing to propose it to parliament myself, should I ultimately be satisfied with its soundness, and should I find no better persons to bring it forward, is my acquaintance with the subject iu my pro- fessional capacity, both in attending election com- mittees, and in Scotch law practice. Believe me, with great regard, yours very faithfully, " HENRY BROUGHAM." Empeital $) aiUamcnt. REFORM BILL.

We stated in our last Postscript, that Lord EBRINGTOV had brought forward a motion ex- pressive of adherence to the leading provisions of the Reform Bill and of confidence in the Ministers.— This motion was of course supported hy those who had voted for the Bill, and carried hy a majority of 131; ihe numbers being— for the motion 329— against it 198.— Sir ROBERT PEF. L observed, that the continu- ance of Ministers iu office.. for the purpose of intro- ducing a different Bill was defeatcrl by the terms of the resolution, which declared that no changc should take place. HOUSE OF LORDS- TUESDAY. Lord KING, in presenting Petitions in favour of Lord TENTERDEN'S Prescription Bill, stated that the Clergy, while they were adverse to change, where their own interests were concerned became the arch- disturbers. Lord ELLENHOROUGII censured the frequent attacks made on the Clergy by the Noble Lord.— Lord SUFFIELD, while lie lamented the original object of attack, which was the body of the Clergy, made a fierce assault upon the heads. He considered the existence of the Right Rev. Prelates iu that House as liable to one abjection. Acting in a close firm phalanx, they always lent their weight to the Government when it was arbitrary and oppressive ; but the very instant a liberal Government came into power and proposed liberal and beneficial measures, the Right Rev. Prelates voted against it.— The Earl of CARNARVON rose lo order, it was disorderly to impute unworthy motives.— The LORI) CHANCELLOR admitted it was; but lie did not hear any sinister motives imputed to the Right Rev. Prelates. Tlicy had, no doubt, acted with the utmost disinterestedness against the present Government, they only thought bf tripping up, and probably thought they had tripped up, the present Government. Sliahspeare, or some other poet, observes " your hut's a jailer to bring forth some monstrous malefactor." The LORD CHANCELLOR'S " but" here is of that description. The praise of disinterestedness it shows is meant as a sarcasm; and the charge of having given their votes for the purpose of tripping up the Government, and iiot from conviction of the demerits of the Bill, is the imputation of unworthy motives, which he admitted to be disorderly. His Lordship was accordingly called to order by Lord EI. LENBOROUGH, and was followed by Earl Gui. Y, who deprecated the discussion, Lord Si I'MKl. ll, in his own justification, said he had only stated a fact, without imputing unworthy motives to the Right Rev. Prelates.— The Bishop of LONDON denied that the Right Rev. Prelates had any idea of tripping up the Government as charged by the Noble and Learned Lord. Whatever might be said of the wis dom of their vote on the Bill, they were clear as to their integrity and sincerity.— The Bishop of I. L. AN D A TV said he had been most anxious to Vote for the Bill, could he liaVe discerned reasons that would justify him in doing so. The insinuations that had been thrown out against himself and his brethren he re- garded as idle sounds— the mere echoes of the dis cordant noises with which they had been assailed on their entrance into that House.— The Bishop of EXETER repelled the charges brought against the Bishop's, who were ready to brave the censure of the mob, although instigated by those who ought to maintain the institutions nf the country. He defied their accusers to show a single instance in which they had voted from selfish and interested motives, al- though they had been outrageously in; lilted hy a person holding the highest station ill office.— Earl GREY denied the charge; he had done dothing but what he was bound to do in the discharge cf his duty.— The Bishop of EXETER, in support of the charge, referred to the Speech of the Noble Earl on the first night of the debate on the Reform Bill, when he threatened the destruction of the Bishops if they did not vote for the Bill, which he conceived had a tendency to instigate the people against the Bench of Bishops— Earl GREY, in reply, said he had addressed them in a tone of warning, but not menace, nor in Ihe language of insult.— The Duke of WELLINGTON vindicated the conduct of the Bishops. There had hot been a question during the last ten months in which they had voted against the Government until the division a few nights ago; and because then they thought proper to judge for themselves, they were accused of voting against a liberal Government. HOUSE OF COMMONS— TUESDAY. Mr. SADLER obtained leave ( o bring in a Bill for the relief of agricultural labourers, whose dis- tresses he imputed, in the developement of his plan, to the engrossment of farms, enclosures, and various other causes— to remedy which he proposes to enable parishes to provide cottages, with limited quantities of land for gardens, to be let at rents sufficient to cover the outlay. HOUSE OF COS! MONS— WEDNESDAY. Two letters written respectively by Lords Althorp and John Russell to Mr. Attwood, as chairman of the late Birmingham meeting, and acknowledging the vote of thanks tin re pas ed, were brought be- fore the consideration of the House. Lord Allhorp defended his correspondence with the organ of u mob, ou the ground that he had the same right as every Englishman lo give his opinion ; and Lord John Russell, who said in his letter that tlie Refoim I'ill had been defeated by the voice of a faction, after considerable fencing, explained that by the faction alluded to in his letter he did not mean the majority of the House of Lords!! who had rejected the bill; but, notwithstanding a most relentless in- terrogation by Sir Richard Vyvyan, he declined to give any clue to the persons whom he did mean !

The farce of getting up these meetings has been performed in London and some other places, and Ihey have been very well exposed in the news- papers.-^ Mr. Vincent Dowling, and a Mr. Merle both of Ihein connected with two of the London Radical Papers, were principal orators; a Mr. Carpue, a surgeon; with Alderman Wood, Mr. Hume, Sir John Cam Hobliouse, and the ancient Radical Staff, filled up the measure.— The following given as a fair outline for a general idea of these meetings:— Now, then, Sir, von't you have the kindness to valk in, and hear the speeches ; or vill you make your mark to this petition.

Each state has a separate government to support, and has to raise a revenue for its maintenance. There are three sorts of taxes in America; one to meet the general ex- penditure of the w hole slate of the union ; one for ( he support of the local government of the state ; and a district or town tax. The expenses of the city of New York alone last year amounted to 1,038,000 dollars. Among the items is 1,499 dollars for re- freshments for the Common Council and its commit tees at the City Hall! ABOLITION OF THE FRENCH PEERAGE.— The French papers of Tuesday bring us the important intelligence lhat the hereditary quality of Ihe peer- age lias been abolished, so fur as a vote of the Chamber of Deputies can do so, by a majority of 238, the numbers being 324 to 80. This is another blow against the European aristocracy, which is quite in accordance with the spirit at present so prevalent in Europe. A peerage not hereditary is a solecism ; and how long a King can exis- t without a peerage, may be easily calculated by those who have looked over the history of the world. In the year 1827, Earl Grey rose in his place in the House of Peers, and said, " I stand here one of a body, who, while protecting the interests of the public, are, if necessary, to control the people themselves; whose duty is not to give way to clamour, but to oppose themselves without fear or hesitation to every measure of which they disap- prove. If we are told that by altering the bill wc run the risk of having one still worse forced upon us, we are not to suffer ourselves to be intimidated by that threat. If a worse bill come, let us take it into our deliberate consideration ; let us amend it if possible; and if we cannot make it a good bill, let us, with the same resolution and firmness, oppose it, and ensure its final rejection. If there is to come a contest between this house and a great body of the people, my part is taken. I am one of ail order which is bound to maintain the privileges and independence of parliament, and 1 will stand or fall with Ihe order to which I belong!" Lord John Russell, in 1823, thus wrote in volume he published, called " An Essay on the History of the English Constitution, from the Reign of Henry VII, to the present."—" The House of Peers collectively form a council for weighing with greater caution aud deliberation the resolu- tions of the House of Commons. If the more popular assembly ( mark this, reader !) is sometimes led away, as it is natural it should, by sudden impressions or temporary clamour, this hereditary senate may interpose ils grave aud thoughtful opinions, to suspend the effect of an intemperate vote. In the possession of such an assembly, indeed, consists the difference between a constitu- tion of pure democracy and oue of mutual control." There is another and most reprehensible mode by Which the Radicals, both iu and out of the House of Parliament, attempt to make the bill palatable, and thrust it down our throats against the " stomach of our sense." They use the King's name, aud declare that his Majesty is a strong advocate for reform. Now this is assertion ; let us consider the facts— for " facts arc stubborn things." The King sat in Ihe House of Peers for more than thirty years without even voting for reform, or sl owing any inclination towards it, and on his coining to the throne was pleased to retain an anti- reform administration, till it was out- voted on another question. But it may not be amiss, as a pendent to the dictum of Earl Grey, the scriptum of Lord John Russell, and the assertions of the interested on their side of the question, to quote from a speech of bis Majesty, when Duke of Clarence, on the slave trade. It was delivered on the 3d of May, 1792, and the following is an extract:—" Another subject had great weight with him ( the Duke of Clarence), namely, that an im plicit obedience to the dictates of the House of Commons, much as he, as an individual peer, respected that House, would render the House of Peers useless, and thus Ihe natural and constituent balance in the constitution wonld be endangered This he would never endure!" FRANCE.— THE REFORM BILL. The wholesome lesson conveyed in the following letter from Paris, will, we trust, be useful to the British community :— " Paris, October 8.— The politicians of this city are almost exclusively laken up wilh the English reform question. The greatest anxiety is expressed for in- formation on Ihe subject. The government has been applied lo, nnd has promised lo send lo the Bourse ihe result of the debate in the Lordias soon as the telegraph shall bring it. The feeling is, that if the question be rejected, the Grey administration will not he able lo maintain itself in office ; bul that if it he carried in its present form, the belnved administration will hold it* ground, aud the aristucratical system will receive such a shock as lo render its final overthrow inevitable. If you were lo believe the French Liberals, there ia no- thing on enrlh so hostile lo liberty and good govern- ment as ihe spirit prevailing amongst the Eiig- fiafi aristocracy. They assert thai the whole system of the institutions of England require remodelling, and that reform in parliament ia but the commencement. That the Liberals should hold such opinions is not surprising, when you consider thai Ihe theory of the institutions in England is diametrically opposed to all the theories in- vented by the political reformers of the Continent for the last fifty years, nnd Ihe practice in England is op- posed in an equal degree to Ihe practice uf Ihe conti. nental reformers. If the reformers of England were lo reflect upon what has occurred in France, aud upon what is there now occurring*; if they were to consider what misery has been entailed upon France by its first reformers, and that after fifty years of suffering, ther « is, perhaps, less, certainly not mare, real and practical liberty than existed previously to the revolution ; if they were to consider that nnw, ill 1831, the prisons of Frahce are filled with persons suspected of being dis- affected to Ihe government, suspected of Carlisin, or uf republicanism ; that one political paper has been pro- secuted twenty- lwo liiues in the spnee of one year, and thai not a week passes without witnessing the seizure of the whole publication of tw o or three journals under the pretext of their containing libellous mailer, tbey would not be so anxious in calling for change, or in advocating measures which will substitute for the present institutions of England tha French system, the worst tyranny lhat can exist, inasmuch as it weare Ihe mask of liberty."
