The surgeon to whom w applied succeeded in healing the nicer, lint alums immediately afterwards an ulcer appeared upon his face, anil the liov was dreadfully nffliaed with rnniiiii sores upon his neck and holly ; the discharge of mat ler was so great, that we were. obliged daily lo change his linen, Tfie physicians nn'tl surgeons in the neigh lioiirlio. nl were applied lo, hut their skill was in Vain sevef. il other remedies we resorted to proved equall ineffectual, and the sufferer continued a poor miserable object, almost bent don hie for near - 20 years At this time 1 heard of ihe virtues of your inestimnhh medicine, nnd after Inking six hollies, which I par. chased from Mr. Sutton, of Nottingham, an amend 111 fill began to ttike place; nnd perseverance in tifkin four hollies more effected a perfect cure.

The paper in question was sent a few days ago to me. as officer commanding the East Kent ' Regiment of Yeomanry Cavalry, in the absence of Lieut.- Colonel the Earl of Winchusea; arid I have taken time, as well to make the necessary inquiries of the respective captains of troops, as to give a perfect opportunity for the full display of that political feeling which was alluded to by . that paragraph, did any such exist in the regiment: and the result is, that up'to this dale, in a corps of 300 men, only five resignations have taken place, since the rejection of the Reform Bill by , the House of Lords, three of which are grounded on a change of residence or business, and in the two other instances not; the most distant alliision is made to snv political- motives for quitting'the regiment.

L. CLARK. ,, „ - „ „ Sihcitnr to the Ass in College, Ludlo- c, Oct. 1431, THE ROT IN SHEEP. A Correspondent of the Birmingham Journal says, " In perusing your paper of the 2d of October, I was pleased to see a paragraph on the Rot in Sheep, wherein the cause is very properly accounted for, ns relates to the effect produced by a too luxuriant crop of grass'. But as the analysis of grass in that statement appears to tne to be incorrecf, I respectfully beg to offer an opinion on tile subject, and to recom- mend also a preventative, rather than a cure, for that destructive malady, the Rot. That all artificial grasses are more or less improper for sheep, is plain, from fhe effect produced upon these anitifals when turned info recently laid down lands where, the grass is of luxuriant growth, from being highly manured or irrigated, and where indi- genous vegetaiidn fotiils no mixture. It is only oti extensive dovrns, commons, aud high lands, where the surface liSs been in turf from time immemorial, and where the verdure consists entirely of indigenous grasses and lichens, that sheep thrive best, and arc most exempt from disease. That a bitter principle in the food of sheep is essential to their health, may l » e reasonable, from the circumstance of this intermixture of moss on such larids; but 1 believe that grass con- tains no bitter, as may be proved by the simple test of infusing a small quantity of any kind, either in a green or dry state, in boiling water, when rather a sweet, maukish, or sickly taste, partaking more of acid than bitter, is imparted. The mosses, On the contrary, yield a strong bitter 011 infusion, so that the common terms applied to grasses, as " sweet grass'' and " sour grass," appear to he correct, fhe in- digenous grasses possessing a nutritive saccharine, while the'artificial or forced grasses contain a sub- acid, sijuashy, or Watery principle, and the various kinds of mosses ( of which sheep are very fond) yield a bitter; consequently, when sheep arc put oil " squashy grass," although they feed greedily at first, anil appear to- thrive rapidly, the stomach and diges- tive apparatus, from the want of a corrective bitter, at last becomes vitiated, and a morbid afwCtion of these organs induces the Rot, a disease Which, I am convinced by long experience, cannot be effectually cured ; therefore, instead of recommending mercurials or bitters, I earnestly recommend the following simple preventative: — When sheep are taken in Spring or Summer from dry upland pasture; aud turned Mitogens* alrotiiidtug- iu juices, give litem about twice a week a small quantity of Oats, bran, or pollard, mixed with salt, iu tile proportion of about half a pint of salt lo a peck of theoattf or bran ; put tlii* mixture into long- wooden troughs; staked firm ill the ground, in con- venient pails of the field— continue this practice until late in the autumn, when the grass hraiuK tu decline in vegetation, and becomes sweetened by frosty nights, when il may be discontinued. The sheep will eat this mixture greedily, aud get so fond of it at Inst, as to lick the trough after the corn i- » eaten. Having had the care of from 1500 to 21100 sheep, with other stock, and being well acquainted Willi their different diseases, and the difficulty nf curing them etfecta. tll. v, I have always lieen careful lo adopt this salutary plan with invariable success ; I therefore most confidently and earnestly recom- mend it at this time, when the rot is so alarmingly prevalent. The salt thus given will keep the » beep in a healthy state, and promote their fattening ; produce, that insensible pei^ piration of the skin, sn essenital to the growth of wool, and prevent the fleeces from becoming matted, or the Wo! fn> m tiding off before the period for nheariilj arrive*. iVi* • ftm^ frd^ wytt. fo*' LO N D O N — s A rr U R D A Y. Government, say the Ministerial papers, have taken every possible precaution to prevent any disturbance of the ptililic pence from arising out of the meetiiig which has been called of the working classes, at White Con- dnit- honse on Monday, The meeting is to be presided over by Mr. Wakley, editor of the liallnt newspaper, and its Obiect is to seek the institution of annual parlia- ments, universal suffrage, aud vote by ballot, and the abolition " of all hereditary distinctions of birth, as un- natural and opposed to the equal rights of man." The Globe says-" We learn that a deputation ftt- ni the Committer for conducting the intended meeting of the working classes on Monday waited this morning on Viscount Melbourne at he Home Office, with the view ol' communicating wiih his Lordship on the subject of that meeting ; which fact rentiers it more than probable that no meeting will at present take place" The meeting has since teen postponed. We say it with shame and indigna'inn— the people of property in this country, who do not believe that tbe Political Unions and other mobs are the best pub lie protectors, leel that they are totally without pro- tection— they do not believe that the Executive Government has the courage to protect them, or to put itself in direct hostility with the mobs to whom it has hitherto owed all its political strength. This is the great cause of tbe consternation— people feel that they must trust to Providence and their own exertion at their own personal risk ; for the Executive, whivh they are taxed so heavily to support, is so inextricably entangled with the very persons from whom danger is apprehended, lhat they cannot, even if they would, do what Ihe urgency of circum- stances demands. Even this day, we understand, that a deputation, with . Mr. Waklev at its head, is to have an interview with Lord Melbourne relative to mailers of Government and the preservation of the public peace ! Is nut this too much for patience to endure? Mr. VVakley ! Who is he that he should presume to intrude with his Radical train upon the . Secretary of State for the Home Department} If the Government was not contemptible, Ihe porter would be ordered to spurn him from the door. We repeat that it is these things which alarm the people. Who can have confidence iu the protection of the Home Department, when it pays regard to such a person as Mr. Wakley and those who have the effrontery to go along with him to Whitehall!— Albion. On Tuesday an inquest was held at Windsor, .. n the body of Sir John Carmichael Anstruther, a young gentleman, about thirteen years of age, a student of Eton College, who was accidentally shot by a fellow- collegian as they were shooting small birds on the previous day. The whole charge of the gun entered immediately below the right eye of the unfortunate youth, and penetrated the brain. The occurrence ap- peared to have been purely accidental, and the jury returned a verdict accordingly. Tbe mother of the deceased, the lady of the Rev. the Warden of Merton College, was staying at Oxford at the time the fatal accident occnred. Had he lived Ire would, on coming of age, have been the richest Baronet hi Scotland. SpKCrAI.

The City authorities and the Bank Directors have been all this forenoon on the alert, and a military force has been stationed within the Bank, part of' which is closed from the public. The authorities in tha west- end of the town are not less active. A military force has been stationed in Somerset- House, the gates of which have been secured by chevcutx- de- frize aiid strong iron bars. The parts of the building open to the Thames have been also planted with cannon, and the Clerks in the several offices which it contains have been sworn in as special constables.. The inhabitants also display the greatest alacrity iu coming forward to be sworn in as special constables. The whole of the Metropolitan Police force at an early hour assembled at their respective station- houses, while those belonging to the more distant parts have been brought inlo llie metropolis. The Government having declared the obiect of the intended meeting, illegal, Mr. Wakley also issued a notice postponing the " Meeting of the Working I'. lasses" at White Conduit Fields this day; people had, however, begun to assemble on the spot at an early hour. At twelve1 o'clock they had amounted to between 400 and 500, consisting of the lowest rabble, who were divided inlo groups apparently consulting aud conversing with each other. At one o'clock the numbers had not increased, aud' at two o'clock were rapidly dispersing. Mr. Laing and other Magistrates were in White Conduit- House. A strong party of local constables were also iu the Gardens. Tne prin- cipal part of the persons assembled were- notorious thieves.— There were several of ihe New Police- on the ground dressed in plain clothes, who, whenever a dozen persons were . grouped together, mixed among thein, ready to put down any attempt at violence. At half- past two not more than seventy or eighty of the rab- > le remained, and they appeared on ttie eve of dispers- ing. For half a century, so strong a sense of public- peril has not been felt. Not even in the most fearful time, of war, when the conqueror of the Continent was known to meditate an immediate descent upon our coasts, was the sense of danger brought so home to our immediate observation. The enemy is our own people : the workers of the mischief the Government, in which we otight to find protection. " The ruin or prosperity of a State,"' says funius, " depends so much upon the ad- ministration of its government, that to be acquainted with the merit of- a Ministry, we need only observe the condition of the people. If we see them obedient to the laws, prosperous in their industry, united at home and respected abroad, we may reasonably presume that their affairs are conducted by men of experience, abili- ties, and virtue. If, on the contrary, we see an universal spirit of distrust and dissatisfaction— a rapid decay of trade— dissensions in all parts of the Einpire, and a total loss of respect in the eyes of Foreign Powers, we may pronounce, without hesitation, that the Government of that country is weak, distracted, and corrupt." Let any sober practical man, who has considered the uses of a Government, contemplate, the slate of this country, and then ask himself whether it be possible that tlie worst of all Governments, or even no Government at all, could have effected within a twelvemonth, worse consequences than the rashness and folly of the present Ministers have brought about since their accession to office. Within that time there has been more public violence and commotion of the populace— more tumults, more burnings, than in half a century' of the preceding time, during which ihe Government was, except at brief in- tervals, in the hands of the Tories. And yet this is what is called a wise aud good— a liberal and popular, Government. It is impossible to think of srtch a Government without shame and indignation. The very rabble which it em- ployed its underlings to excite, when it thought that excitement might be used for its advantage— not as a Government but as a party— the very rabble hates, and whit is worse, despises and disregards it. Let us look at the words of one of the rabble respecting an inter- view which Mr. Wakley and others of the rabble had with the Secretary of State for the Home Department. We trust they will teach that Noble Functionary the j- espect which he derives from his condescension-. " Mr Sucksby asked what business a deputation bad tn ga humbugging with Lord Melbourne? The Meeting should lint tie pd| jed olf -- it Would tie a dastardly act on the part of the London Union.

The merry bells of Bromtield, Onibury, Stokesay, and Wistanslow an- nounced his approach as he successively passed near those places, and thus gave the signal for assembling the village minstrels and his numerous friends to escort him lo his native hamlet, where he was received with th3 unsophisticated congratulation of such an assemblage as marked the estimation in which this excellent man is liel'din a neighbourhood where he has so long been a blessing to the sick, and the poor, and where, as a christian and a moral man, and a sincere and unaffected friend, he lives in the esteem of all around him.

Aud it appears that, fjte 14th Dragoons, who had prevented the destruction con- templated by the mob on the Saturday, were on the Sunday directed to proceed out of the city to keyiks: ham, because their presence was unpalatable' to- some nf the inhabitants', they went accordingly to Kevns- ham, and the mob immediately recommenced and carried on the work of destruction as previously detailed; on which tbe wiseacres who sent away these honest soldiers were compiled again to avail themselves of their assistance, and they then cleared the streets and dispersed the mob. Such is the indignation of the principal residents, that at a public meeting called on Thursday last, an Address to the Secretary of State, which has since been signed by about eight hundred gentlemen, was unanimously agreed to, lieiug couched in the following terms:— " We, the undersigned Merchants, Bankers, Traders, and otlier Inhabitants of the City of Bristol, deeply lamenting the riotous and disgraceful proceedings that have recently occurred in this city, and the sad destruc- tion of property resulting therefrom— that the lives and fortunes of the citizens were for a considerable period entirely at the mercy of a despera'e mob— and firmly convinced that this might have been prevented, if proper precautions had been adopted, do earnestly request your Lordship will be pleased to cause an in. vestigation to be instituted, as the o ly course that will pacify the minds of the public and restore confi- dence." During the absence of the 14th Light Dragoons, about thirty soldiers, part of a troop of the 3d Dragoons, headed by Colonel Brereton, was all the military force left in the city : and it appears that enquiry into the conduct of Colonel Brereton is soli- cited — One of the most singular features ofthe affair is this, that the Political Union, by the name of which, added to the appearance of some half dozen demagogues, a mob is collected for any factious design, is, when called upon for any good purpose, found to consist only of a President and a Secretary, with perhaps some half dozen compeers who have played the part of orators, and who cannot slink out of Ihe concern, because they have been placarded by name in their official or oratorical capacities!— It is understood thai if the enquiry now asked fur is insti- tuted,— and it is the bounden duty of Government to institute such enquiry,— some disclosures of an extra- ordinary nature will take place as to the origin of the plot to assault, if not to assassinate, Sir Charles Welherell; as well as relative to the mismanagement by which Ihe city was given up to be plundered by a gang of lawless ruffians. HOY A L I'HOC I. A MA Tit) V. A Privy Council was held at St. James's Palace, on Wednesday, hy which the following Proclamation was directed to be issued :— " WILLIAM R,— Whereas ih divers pafrts of Great Britain, and more particularly in the to. Sins of Derby and Nottingham, and iu the city of Bristol, tumultuous assemblages of people have taken place,, and outrages of the most violent description have beeii committed both upon the persons and property of divers of our subjects; and whereas all the restraints of law and order have been overborne and trodden under foot by such lawless multitudes, the mansions of individuals violently entered, pillaged, and set on fire, the ordinary course of justice forcibly interrupted, the gaols for the confine- ment of criminals broken into and destroyed, and male- factors and persons charged with offences let loose upon the public, to the great disturbance and danger of the common weal, and the subversionof established Govern • inent: And whereas the welfare and happiness of all nations do, under Divine Providence, chiefly depend upon the observance and enforcement ofthe law. And whereas it is our firm determination faithfully to dis- charge the duty imposed on us, to preserve the public peace, and vigorously to exert the powers which we possess for the protection of all our subjects, in the en- tire enjoyment of their rights and liberties. We, there- fore, being resolved lo suppress the wicked aud flagiti- ous practices aforesaid, have thought fit, by and with the advice of our Privy Council, to issue this our Royal Proclamation, solemnly warning all our liege subjects to guard against every attempt to violate the law, and to abstain from every act inconsistent, with the peace and good order of society; and we do hereby charge and command all Sheriffs, Justices ofthe Peace, Chief Magistrates of Cities, Boroughs, and Corporations, and all the Magistrates throughout Great Britain, that they do effectually repress all tumults, riots, outrages, and breaches of the peace within their respective jurisdic- tions ; and that they do make diligent enqniry in order to discover and bring to justice the movers and per- petrators of all such seditions and wicked acts as afore- said : and we do further earnestly and solemnly exhort, enjoin, call upon, and command all onr liege subjects, of all ranks and conditions, that they do come forward upon the first appearance or apprehension of any such disturbances as aforesaid, as they are bound by their duty to us, by their regard for the general interest, and by the obligation of the law, and that they be. actively aiding and assisting to all Sheriffs, Justices of the Peace, and other Magistrates, in enforcing the law against evil doers, aud in protecting their fellow subjects in the en- joyment of tlieir proper y and the exercise of iheir rights, against ail forcible, illegal, and unconstitutional interference, controul, or aggression. " Given at our Court of St. James's, this 2d day of November, 1831, and in Ihe Second Year of our reign. " God save the King " [ From Felix Farley's ISristol Journal. j This Proclamation, it has been justly observed, docs not contain one word of caution which the public was not before fully conversant with; aud it has, therefore, been asked— Why did not the advisers of His Majesty issue such a proclamation as would convince hi4 subjects that the Government was at length really awake to the situation of the country ? Why did they not proclaim the King's high dis- pleasure, not only against the incendiaries of Bristol, but against all persons who by act, or writing, or speech, incite tbe people to outrage, or countenance it when committed ? Why did they not denounce as enemies to the public peace all those who convene seditious assemblies, or hold correspondence with them ? Why did they not enjoin all his Majesty's faithful subjects tn avoid communication witli persons who form societies for the purpose of overawing the Legis- lature, and'wresting the Executive. Government from the hands in which the Constitution has placed it? Lastly, why did they not proclaim that whoever ad- vises the people to form armed bodies for any political purpose, unsanctioned by legal authority, advises an overt act of treason, and is guilty of a high crime in publishing the suggestion ? Such a Proclamation would perhaps give a shock tn the blood- stained Press of the metropolis and provinces,; it would be ditrus sermn, probably, to some very great men; and it would disoblige both the gentleman half aud the working half of the Burdett and Wakley Union, or rather Dis- union. But it would inspire some con- fidence in the Government and soriie hope for the Monarchy; it would be honest, and manly, and salu- tary ; such a Proclamation has not, however, been published. Look at the language used by George the Third, in addressing his Parliament, ori Saturday, the 8th of July, 1780, after the riots which had taken place in London tbat year:— " His Majesty concluded with earnestly recommend- ing to both Houses to assist him by their influence and authority in their several counties in guarding the peace of the kingdom from future disturbances, and watching over the preservation of the public safety; that they should make his people sensible of the happiness they enjoy, and the distinguished advantages they derived from our- excellent constitution, both in church and state, warn them of the hazard of innovation, and point out to them the fatal consequences of such commotions as have already been EXCITED. Let it be your care," added his Majesty, " to impress on their iniiids this im- portant truth, that rebellious insurrections to resist- or to reform the laws must end either in the destruction of the persons who make the attempt., or in the subversion of our free and happy constitution."— Vide.

It was on the ninth day of September, last year; that Charles Pjnney, Esq. presided at a Public Meeting of some of the inhabitants of this City held in the Guild- hall, called forthe purpose of congratulating the French Nation upon their Revolution and the events of the Three Days of July! '.— Strange fatality! !— that the same gentleman should, in his capacity as Mayor of Bristol, within little more than a twelvemonth after- Wards, have to witness the first Act of the Tragedy of Reform, if not of Revolution, which has been since commenced in his own country 11 With what deeds of incendiarism and outrage, characterised by pusillanimity and folly, if not sanotioned and provoked by some branches of the constituted authorities of the realm, this tragedy has been performing in Bristol, must and can be only publicly known ami authenticated, when those forms of legal enquiry have been gone into, which it is the duty of his Majesty's Ministers without an hour's delay to institute. The occurrences in Bristol of the Three Days of Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, the 29th, 30th, and 31st of October, Will henceforth become as celebrated in the annals of this Country, as those of the three days of July are iu Paris— and they cannot be enquired into and sifted by the mere verdicts of coroners' in- quests, aud the common precedents of the law; nor will the prnces verbal of the Magistrates, promised bv our reforming cotemporary, ( we detest the French revolutionary phrase,) be satisfactory. The security of the Throne itself, the maintenance of tile Constitu- tion, and the very bonds by which society is held together, will all depend upon the manner in whirh this enquiry is instituted and conducted. A special commission ought immediately to be appointed, with the Chief Jusiice of England at its head; for it is a case in which a Judge, the Representative of the King, iu the discharge of the most august and important of his functions, has been not merely insulted, but absolutely driven from his duty, and from his seat of Justice, at the hazard of his life. Here is the conduct of the Chief Magistrate of the City and his Brother Officers also loudly and clamouronsly impugned by all ranks of their fellow- citizens, and may be libelled, and aspersed in a manner which no honourable mind ought to en- dure without demanding the strictest aud quickest investigation. Here are too, the Mansion of the Mayor, the Palace of the Bishop, the Public Offices of tlie King, and upwards of forty private dwellings of the peaceable inhabitants of tiie city burnt to the ?[ round, and their lives and those of " their wives and amilies placed in the most imminent peril;— property to the value it is probable of half a million of pounds, plundered and destroyed ; and public and private docu- ments, which no money can replace, burnt and for ever lost; and will the perpetrators of this accumulated mass of crime be suffered to go unpunished, or the causes which have led to it, not be investigated with the severest scrutiny by tiie most efficient tribunal which the laws of our country affords? Forbid it, Heaven'. Both justice and humanity demand it. Whether or not a reforming and liberal Administration may be induced to facilitate this cry for retribution npon the outraged laws of the country, we know not, af. er no attempt, so far as it has been made known, has been made to discover the miscreants who attempted to murder Lord Londonderry, and assaulted others of our Senators, while proceeding to Parliament to exercise their judicial functions. But, as it is agreed on all hands, that the dreadful catastrophe which has occurred iu Bristol has arisen out of the drama of Reform, and the agitation and excitement consequent thereon, the whole nation we conceive, Reformers and Anti- Re- formers, must be unanimous in the desire that before Parliament is again assembled to decide tlus great question, the enquiry should be gone into and finished; for upon its issue we are confident will depend the extent of the Reform which that Parliament will grant. In urging this enquiry we lay aside all party motives. We presume not to name the individuals at whose door the olame lies,— all we assert is that the lives and pro- perty of the inhabitants of this great commercial city were suffered for the space of six and thirty hours to be at the mercy of an unrestrained and infuriated mob; for during that period, we hesitate not to say, magis- terial command and interference had ceased to exist. Our duty, however, tells IT'S wc ought not to omit the opportunity of attempting to expose and refute some of the atrocious reflections upon official characters, and the dangerous propositions for superseding their legal and official functions, in which the liberal Press daily abounds. And first, as tn the occasion and the character in which Sir Charles Wetherell visited IJristol. It was well known he was coining in the character of Recorder of our city, clothed with the same authority as any of the Judges, and deputed in the King's name to open his Commission of Assize or Gaol Delivery. Why in this character of a criminal Judge his political conduct as a Member of Parliament was to he intermingled, we ioave to the Reformers to explain. It could, in onr opinion, be for no other reason than to serve a base and villainous party purpose. In his capacity of Judge, we defy his political enemies and detractors to produce an instance where his conduct in the duties of that office have not been the most exemplary and praiseworthy, displaying patient investigation, exten- sive legal knowledge, unimpeached integrity, and strict impartiality; tempering in a peculiar manner justice with mercy. But what is the character given of him, and the odium attempted to be excited against him, by a dozen or more of our Reforming Public Prints, but more especially by one which more than any other wishes it lo be believed, that it is the organ of the present Ministers, and lhat it writes from authority. The Courier Newspaper of Monday last announces the intelligence to its readers in the follow- ing false and wicked language. We have not room on this occasion to quote its previous sentiments, and those of its Radical Cotemporanes, the Times, the Chronicle, the Globe, the Sun, See. Sec. by which the mob was excited and encouraged to acts of violence :— " What are the fact* of this melancholy business?" en- quires the Courier. " A legal functionary, who tiad rendered himself obnoxious to tbe people by a systematic opposition to eveiv thing enlightened and liberal, enters, publicly, & town which tie has insulted by his misrepresentations of the ojiinions nf its inhabitants. He braves public odium— challenges public hostility ; and at a moment when prudence would tiave taught him, it' practicable, to stay away, and to depute the perforin - ance of liis legal functions to another, be is seen,— be, tlie open enemy of Reform . the cold jester on tbe people's claims — is seettamoiig Reformers, with an erect crest, as if political virtue, aud discreet judgment, were marked upon his front. The excitement of the people anions whom lie appeared was not unknown to him. He had received caution upon caution; hut of what avait is caution lo inc- n wtio have an adder- like deafness' Besides, it was lo be shewn that reaction had taken place; and the champion of tlie Anti Reformers ex peeled to- win a bloodless, but triumphant fight. Sir Charles U'etherclt- - bold in his consistency, we must confess, - entered Bristol, and sad indeed has been the result. Nothing could, under the circumstances, hare excused tbe appearance of Sir Charles Wetherell in that city, unless indeed ttie law had not provided for ttie performance of ttie duty which be bad lo execute: aud, even in such case, there ought to have been great prudence and moderation in the conduct of the lte- corder; but we find that on the sent of judgment Sir Charles was imprudently Itold, and that lie there uttered threats calculated to irritate rather than assuage the ereitcmeat to which his political Conduct had fjiren birth. " This was bud enough; but. as if the spirit of the Principal ran through the Faction which has so tonrj attempted to rule the City of Bristol, the partisans of tbe Recorder, anil tbe officers appointed by them to preserve the peace, wantonly irritated the crowd, and a portion of the troops ( how commanded we should like to know) taking part more actively, it is siid, tint ' we hope untruly, tlian tbe urgency of the case required, with these guardians of order, drove ihe populace to acts of ovlratje ; and whilst blood was being spilteii by the soldiery in one quarter, tbe mob were coniiuittinp:, witli success, tliernost lawless acts in Knottier The jail was forced open, the prisoners were set fiee, and the furniture was burnt." A more wanton and profligate attack than this upon the Prerogative of the Crown, was never, we will venture to assert, published since the anarchical days of the Protectorate. What— is the advocacy of Reform arrived at such a pitch of dictation and controul, that our Courts of Justice are to bp suspended, onr Criminals are uot to be tried by the King's Judges, for fear of giving offence to the Reformers, and exciting the passions of a mob? BIT IT HAS COM K TO THIS PASS; and who will say, that the Reform Bill of the Ministers lias not been the cause of scenes of nmrdeT and rapine in Bristol almost unparalleled in the annals of British history. We wish notto use irritating language; but if a repetition ofthe scenes of horror which it has been our lot. to witness, is to be avoided in other parts of the Empire, we feel it our duty to speak the truth, and deny what this same Government Piint has twice this week falsely as- erled, that nineteen- twentieths of the people of England are in favour of the Reform measure of his Maiesty's Ministers. We do not. assert that it was the Reformers of Bristol, or its Political Union, who were either the perpetrators or direct instigators in the scenes of the three days. But we do assert, that it is this Reform measure which has unhappily divided the country, and that it is the language of the revolu- tionary Press, which has encouraged and excited the mob to the perpetration of crimes almost unheard of. And we go further, and say, that it is a fearful re- sponsibility indeed which his Majesty's Ministers take upon themselves if tliey persist in forcing upon the nation what they are pleased to designate another Reform Bill equally efficient as tbe last. For the apathy, which during the scenes of terror we have witnessed, our Contemporaries assert appeared amongst our Fellow Citizens, it appears to us, Ihey have themselves accounted,— without attributing the cause to political motives. The peaceable inhabitants of the city, the Tories if they choose to call them so, were abandoned by the parties to whom they naturally looked for protection ; and distrust in them and their proceedings as naturally ensued. By what channel, and to whom, we won'd ask, were notices sent on Sunday afternoon to those peaceable citizens, who were either in performance of their religious duties on the Sabbath- day, or, as prudence dictated, confined to their houses, their persons being in danger, that their services were required by fhe Magistracy ? We know not of whom the Bristol Union consists, or whether it is a re- cognised body by the Ministers and our Magistrates, like ihe Birmingham Political and other Unions. But this we see, that it is corresponded with, and acts simultaneously, and equally as dictatorially and magis- terially as our legally constituted authorities do. Wit- ness the following publications. The subjoined pla- card appeared in Bristol oil the 25th of October, four d. rys before the arrival of Sir Charles Wetheretl. Some indirect communication having, it would seem, reached the Council Chamber of the Bristol Union of the proceedings of the Mayor and Corporation, the following hand- bill was circulated;— Ttie council of the Union have heard with feelings of sur. prise, tbat the Corporation have requested and obtained tlie assistance of armed troops, for ttie purpose of conducting Sir Charles Wetherell. in his judicial capacity, into this city. It s the opinion of this council tbat if the magistracy of ttie city fe I themselves incompent to preserve tbe public peace with- out being, supported by tbe military they should resign Iheir ollices, and suffer the civic authorities to be elected by a majority of the votes of their fellow. citizens. The council think that a man clothed in robes of magistracy ought never to be a politician, as such a magistrate cannot be expected lo possess tile public confidence, without which tie wilt always be found incompetent to preserve the public peace. They would, therefore, recommend to the corporation the immediate resignation of Sir Charles Wetherell as Recorder, such being the means best calculated to prevent riot, and perhaps blood- shed. At the same time the council earnestly recommend members of the union, and reformers in general, at all times of popular excitement, to use their most strenuous endeavours for ttie preservation of Ihe public peace, as it is only by such a course they will be able to obtain the rights they seek. " By order of the council, " J. 1'. YEN, Secretary. " Oct. 25, 1831." On Sunday Noon, the 30th of October, the fatal day after which all the mischief, be it observed, had been done, and vol before, it appears that the Press of onr Gazette Contemporary was set to work ; and in his Paper of Thursday last we find the following descrip- tion of what was simultaneously done by these two bodies, and his remarks thereon :— " Bristol Gazette."—" At tills time ( Sunday noou) tile fol. lowing large bills were posled up in the Square:— " Council House, Oct. 30th, 1R3I. " Sir Charles Wotberell left Bristol at twelve o'clock last night" " The Riot Act has been read three times. All Persons found tumultuously Assembling are guiltv of Capital Felony. " By Order of tbe Mayor." " Sunday, Oct. 30th, 1831.'' These v ere. howner, soon lorn down, and the unfortunate bill, stieker knocked about; tiis Icettle was taken from him, the paste tin own out, and the kettle forced upon his head, amidst the laughter ot the mob. Another bill from the Bristol Union, to the follow ing effect, was also posted, and remained unmolested !! " Bristol General Union. The Council of the Union know that Sir Charles Welherell has left the city, and that tbe Assizes are postponed. Tliey earnestly entreat thai every man will immediately return to his own home. Outrages ouly injure the cause of Reform. " Bv Order of the Council, " W. IIBRAPATH, Vice- President." " Sunday, 30th Oct. 1831." At the same time a notice was very extensively circulated, calling upon the inhabitants to afford aid and co- operation to the Magistrates, by assembling immediately at the Guildhall. — Sorry are we to say, that the call was very partially obeyed; an unaccountable apathy seemed to pervade tlie citizens, and but few assembled. Those, however, who did assemble, found no plan determined on, and after remaining some short time, the meeting adjourned without coming lo any decision to regulate their future movements." These, be it. observed, being the assertions and opinions of the proprietor of a Reforming Newspaper, which has advocated " the Bill, the whole Bill, and . public t_ determine, which body has the ascendancy in Bristol, and whether, as the Standard truly observes, the " Re- formers' Rebellion" had not begun there. We have only one remark more to make in conclusion. If these Unions are to be upheld and supported by Government, itis the bonnden duty of that Government fo let us know the names and avocations of the persons who compose them. We have Mr. Vice- President Herapath, and we have Mr. Secretary Ven, but the other names of this Political Union are as carefully concealed from our sight as are those of the Inquisitors of Spain or Portu- gal. In common with nearly the whole of our fellow citizens, we are of opinion that - the Magistrates and Colonel Breretonare involved inaserious responsibility. We think it will ultimately turn out that there is another party whose conduct requires investigation— in short, that a large share of responsibility rests upon the Go- vernment. Upon the representation made to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, by a deputation from the Magistrates, of what was appre- hended on fhe arrival of Sir Charles Wetherell, the Government recommended an augmentation of the Civil force as sufficient forthe occasion.— The necessity of military aid was pressed upon them, and at length they consented to. send a troop of horse. In the course of last week a communication was made to the Magis- trates from the Secretary of State, that in consequence of information received of a great number of strangers being in the city, three troops of horse would be sent to villages in the neighbourhood to await ihe orders of the Magistrates. The troops were placed under the command of Colonel Brereton, who, we have reason to believe, had received certain instructions which were unknown to the Magistrates. The consequence was, that when the Magistrates ordered him to clear the Square with Ins men on Saturday night, his private in- structions appeared immediately to come into collision with the orders of the Magistracy, as to whether such a degree of emergency existed at that moment as would justify him in obeying the orders of the civil power. Now, the citizens of Bristol demand to know, what were those instructions— and what the extent of the re- sponsibility which the Magistracy were to incur? An answer, full and explicit, must be given to these queries. The citizens have been outraged and insulted by the conduct of the parties whose duty it was to use vigorous measures, and they require to be informed of the quantum of blame incurred by either. The conduct of the 14th Light Dragoons deserves the unqualified praise and gratitude of the city. To their exertions in the dreadful but necessary task imposed upon them, we owe perhaps the existence of mansions and properties to the amount of millions, and the pre- servation of onr lives; and had they been allowed to follow up the resistance they offered on Sunday morn- ing, Queen- square, the Bishop's Palace, and the prisons would have been at this moment entire. Our readers already know, too well, that they were sent out of the town, and we ask by whose orders ? To secure the shipping, and to further the efforts to restore the tranquillity of the town, the sailors turned out to a man to be sworn in as special constables, and the respect extended tothem is increased in consequence of the great injustice done to them by many of the city, in the consternation and deficient information of the moment, in suspecting or describing them for an instant to have taken any part in these horrible riots and appalling destruction. When the inhabitants found themselves deserted by the public authorities, and were individually compelled to adopt means of self- preservation, many of them pro- ceeded at once to defend tlieir premises. Among the most singular plans which have come to our knowledge, was that adopted at a very extensive sugar- house iu a remote street, where not only were the workmen armed, but the steam- apparatus was prepared to pour boiling water upon the assailants for hours. In other places carboys of vitriol were provided for the same purpose. Il has been falsely asserted that the constables as- saulted some of the mob unnecessarily on Saturday. The fact is that they did not interfere until some of the Mansion- house windows had been broken, and their first operation was to take one of the mob into custody, npon which a rescue was attempted. The conduct of the constables was throughout most praiseworthy,— temperate, vet decisive; and if they had been properly supported the riot would have been quelled at almost its outset. Sir Charles Wetherell owed his life to their protection on Saturday. The cries of the mob were terrific, and their vengeance against him would noteven have ended in his murder— he would, we firmly believe, have been torn in pieces; and this operation, we are as confident, was the preconcerted signal forthe devastation which commenced as soon as some olher pretence could be found for it. Several of the mob were heard to declare ( and this can be substantiated on oath) while in their way through Temple- street, that whatever person arrived as Judge, whether Sir C. Wetherell, or a deputy, he should be murdered! At one period of the sacking and burning, the wretches cheered each other in the work of devastation by shouting " Protheroe and Reform." Altei: elher there have been completely destroyed nearly Fifty Dwelling houses and Warehouses, exclusive of the Mansion- house, Excise- Office, Customhouse, the four Toll- Houses, the three Prisons, and the Bishop's Palace. It is believed that many uf the persons in custody can be identified as ringleaders and incendiaries. The Magistrates have examined several suspected persons, but entirely private, and the result has not yet transpired. The New Prison contains the prisoners as they are taken. Its outer wall an< l wings within remain ; so that prisoners may be secured ; and it is strongly guarded by soldiers. The walls . of the gate- house continue; indeed, all the walls remain, the building being of granite; and oil the walls of the gale- house sentries walk, so as to give signal should any large bod'es of men approach. The walls of Ihe governor's house, and the chapel above it, also continue; but no- thing except the walls; and the effect of the flames on the stone- work is most remarkable. On Monday night, the Malmesbury Troop of Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry Cavalry, under the command of Lord Andover, assembled at Malmesbury, and were under orders to proceed to Bristol, if necessary. On Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock, the Ramsbury" Troop of Yeomanry Cavalry, under the command of Captain Smith, marched inlo Chippenham, a distance of 25 miles, having only been called together on Monday evening, also ready to assist ns. On Thursday morning the Marlborough Troop of Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry Cavalry, under the command of Lieutenant Codrington, uiarchedinto Calne for the same purpose. PRESENT STATE OF BRISTOL.— The City, we rejoice to say, remains quiet, and business, wh'ich for some days was wholly suspended, is gradually being resumed. The energetic and systematic measures adopted by all the respectable inhabitants, and their determination to oppose, with their blood if necessary, any further attack on the part of the revolutionists', together with tbe fact of troops and artillery being near at hand, will do much to restore confidence, FL'RTHER PARTICULARS. Much stolen property has been found in the direction of Bedminster— plate- chests buried, & c. Therefore that place, as well as certain equally noted streets where many beds and other valuable property have already been found, are undergoing a somewhat rigid examination. An immense quantity of property has been recovered. Oiie noted fellow taken to- day at a house iti Marsh- street ( which street is celebrated for being occupied by the lowest Irish) had on him a bundle of bank notes, which proved to have been taken from Messrs. Miles and Co.' s counting- house in Queen- sqfiare. About fifty known ruffians and rioters were taken in the course of Wednesday, and lodged in the re- maining wings of the new gaol, and the place guarded by cons iderable numbers of foot soldiers. The recoveries of property have led to ma! ny painfnl as well as curious exposures; and several houses in the aforesaid Marsh- street were found, though without ex- citing any very considerable surprise, fo be almost literally crammed with stolen property. Three waggon loads were taken from only two houses,: from which it may be inferred how much is there anil elsewhere de- posited. The quiet of the city Was fnrther secured by the resumption of the system of lighting, or rather illuminating each house. Every house throughout the city hud candles in the several windows ; so that had the gas pipes been cut off— one of the plans of the organised gangs of the plunderers, there still would have been tolerably good light in the street to enable the constables and soldiers to act without the indiscri- minate plunder and outrage that might otherwise have taken place had the mob once more triumphed. The Mayor has suffered tremendously tn estimation He acted weakly, most weakly at first, if all that is said be true ; and though official authority is not pven for this assertion, it is founded on that'which the writer deems all but official When the daring gangs assailed the Mansion- house, Ihe party of 14th Dragoons appear- ed oil the spot; and seeing the fnry and character of the banditti assembled, perceiving that plunderers sought to commit devastations under the gtlise of dis- playing political hostility, the officer in command is positively described to have represented to the Mayor the absolute necessity, for the safety of Bristol, that prompt and decided exertions should be made to dis- perse bands of robbers who had collected under the fraudulent guise of being assemblages of the people The Mayor hesitated—( icrhaps no doubt humanely ;' but bv the hesitation all was lost. He would not ailow the officer in command of the party of the 14th Dragoons, who were on tbe spot, to act decidedly; in fact, the* military were without authority from the civil power, and their presence therefore was worse than useless— it gave in fact a triumph to the mob. From the Bristol Mirror of Saturday. When we made inquiry at tlie ConnciLhotise yester- day at two o'clock, one hundred and eighty prisoners had been committed, fifty of whom were capitally charged with rioting and burning. Constables were at that time flocking in with prisoners, and the Magistrates were sitting in different rooms bearing the charges against them. The prisoners are for the present con- veyed as usual to the New Prison, two wings of which are still uninjured. However if is said that it is intended to moor a frigate tn King- road, for the reception of all those who shall be found guilty at the next gaol delivery. It is quite lamentable to reflect with what apparent ease a great deal of these horrible excesses might have been prevented or speedily checked. A few spirited gentlemen in the neighbourhood of the palace actually cleared the place and bonnd three ofthe rioters, and Fia'd they been only supported by half a dozen bayonets in the hands of men who would have done their duty, the palace would have been entirely saved ; instead of which until the sabres of the 14th mide the wretches feel that they were no longer masters, hundreds of marauders were looking in and dejiarting in the most deliberate manner, laden with wine and spirits, and others rolling on the ground in the most beastly stale of intoxication. Lieutenant- General Sir R. Jackson has been sent down here by Government to co- operate with the Magistrates in preserving the peace ofthe city. To the spirited conduct of Major Mackworth, and ' the brave soldiers of the 14th Light Dragoons, we are indebted for the safety of the city generally. Bnt for their exertions, and truly soldier- like conduct, the city would probably at this moment have been everywhere one mass of smoaking rnins < The grossly- perverted and erroneous accouhts which have appeared in the Courier and some of the other London prints, respecting the conduct of these brave fellows, « r « truly disgraceful lo the writCT. That total destruction,' and ' one - wide scene of desolation and plunder were meditated,- cannot for a moment be doubted by any one who witnessed the horrors of Sunday evening and midnight. We have suffered it is true— dreadfully suffered— but we have to thank God that the devonring flames, and the bloody hand of the assassin aud the incendiary have been ar- rested.

Our supplies since this day se'nnigfit of English wheat, barley, malt, and beans, as also English and foreign pease, and Irish oats and flour, have been moderately good ; of English flour great; of foreign wheat, Irish, Scotch, aud foreign barley, and seeds from all quarters, but limited ; of foreign oats or rye, from any quarter, none. In the early part of this day's market trade threatened to he dull, but the holders of foreign corn, particularly of wheat, the duty on which is now 26s. 8d. per quarter, seeming determined to hold for an anticipated advance, and consequent decline in duty, and the assemblage of buyers becoming numer- ous, good wheat and barley ullimately began to go nff briskly, oats, beans, malt, flour, and grey pease steadily, at bnt little, if any, variation from" last Monday's quotations. Boiling pease looked a little upwards; hemp seed has fallen from £ 1 to £ 4 per last, and linseed sold tardily at last week's prices. The quotations of most other seeds are nominal. It was, indeed, supposed that, to effect sales of them, a considerable abatement must have been submitted to. Current Price of Grain per Qr. as under:— Wheat Barley Malt '.

Shropshire, Cheshire, rind North Wales Agenty of the British College of Health, WYIiE- COF, SHREWSBURY. MORISON THE HYGEISTS VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINES, For any Disease or Surgical Case. AT a Time like the present, when the Influence of that terrible Disease, the Cholera Morbus, is so awfully prevalent around us, and when the devastating Effects of which are making such rapid Strides towards the Shores of orir highly- favoured Country ( and which, indeed, if Report lie correct, has already entered otir Borders) as to excite, not only such Fear and Alarm in the Breasts of many Individu- als,' but to induce even a Committee of the Lords nf His Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council to adopt such Rules and Regulations proposed by the Board of Health as, iri its Estimation, may be calculated to preverff, if possible, the Introduction and spreading of this Disease iri the United Kingdom. It is at such a Time as this, and under tbe threatening Aspect of such a Visitation, that J. FISHER, General Agent for Shropshire, Cheshire, and North Wales, would " beg most respectfully, and confidently, to recommend to the Public " Morison's Vegetable Universal Medi- cines," as a safe and efficacious Preventive and Cure of this most virulent Of Diseases, and which of late has so dreadfully proved itself to be in its destructive Ravages on the Continent. We hear s onetimes a great deal in Reference to tho spreading of contagious Diseases by Means of external Agents; firs', by actual Contact; secondly, through the surrounding Atmosphere; thirdly, by Means of Substances which have been in Contact with or near the Person or Persons infected. But however accurate such Statements may be, it must be admitted that all infectious Influence depends Chiefly on the predisposed State of the Body, ill Reference to the Blood arid oilier Juices. If this were not. so, w- c should find, where con- tagious Disease or infected Atmosphere prevails, all the Inhabitants of the Place would be affected at tbe same Time, and in the same Degree ; but this we know is not the Case: the Conclusion, therefore, is inevitable, Would we have our Bodies invulnerable to Disease, whether the Disease be contagions or not contagions, the Purification of the Blood and Humours by proper Medicine is indispeiisibly necessary, and the only Way in which Strength and Energy can lie imparled to the Body, so as fo enable it to resist, successfully the opposing Evil. Now, this cannot be belter and. more securely effected than by the frequent. Use of the above Vegetable Purgative Medicines, which have already in the Port of Riga, and in other Places where Choleta has p. evailed, triumphantly evinced their Powers in totally subduing atid eradicating the Disease. Some Accounts of the wonderful Effects produced by the Medicines mnv be seen by referring to the Haridfiills, and to the different Agents. J.

TOWN OF SHREWSBURY, The Mayor and Magistrate* niet on Tuesday, the 1st irtst. at the Exchequer, in consequence of the Mayor having received the order of His Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Connerl, relating to the pre- vention and spreading of the disease called Cholera Morbus; when it was determined that the Town Clerk should forward to, the churchwardens and overseers ofthe respective parishes within the town and liber- ties of Shrewsbury, a copy of the Resolutions entered into at a meeting of the inhabitants oft the - 21st day of July, 1S3*; and also the request of the Mayor, that all persons wilt contribute whatever may be in their power to carry into effect regulations so essential * o health, conductive to comfort, and so well calcu- lated to check epidemic and contagious disorders; and that the churchwardens and overseers would, on discovering that any of the labouring classes are affected by epidemic or contagious disorder, in every case procut'e immediate medical advice arid attend- ance to the party affected. The Resolutions passed at the Meeting of the Inhabitants on the 21st of July last, are to the effect following : — 44 That the Meeting being fully impressed with the necessity that exists at i| t « present juncture of using every precautionary measure lo prevent the spread,- in the Town atltl { liberties of Shrewsbury, of such conin- jfious disorders as are itow raging'in foreign nation?, and may by possibility find their way into this coun- try, does earnestly recommend the Occupiers of all Factories, and oilier places where labourers are em- ployed, in adopt aud require from their work people a siriyl adherence to the following directions :— 14 that nil ^ at'tories & Workshops Le whitewashed, the floni. r frequently swept, and ( hat all dirt which mrty have accumulated therein be carefully removed, and' that they be as well ventilated as possible. " That the people employed be required to wash th* » if hands ami fstees at least twice every day ; that thev change their linen frequently, nrid that they also whitewai » 1 » their houses, aud krep I li e ID cltfan and well ventilated. % i That, although the recommendations abovenamed lire more particularly addressed to the occupiers of large Establishments;, where considerable number* of vtoiUpeople are congregated together, il i* particular! v desirable tHut the Ow tiers arid Occupiers of € ottage Pioperly, as well as the Occupiers of all other'Houses, should adopt them as far as practicable in their re- spective f? encine » ts or PJaces of Abode. " That, as a general rule, cleanliness in person, and in every part of the House and Manufactory, is of the utiUost consequence. 4VAnd'that the Meeling does' further earnestly recommend to the Churchwardens and Overseers of ihe Poor of the different Parishes within ihe Town and Liberties of Shrewsbury to endeavour, as far as lies in their power, to cany into effect the above siiggesflioriB aniong the poor of their respectiveparishes." ATROCITIES AT BRISTOL. respondence with the Birmingham Union, or the re fusiil to send down a special commission to tr y the Nottingham rioters? It were treason to the best interests of the coutitry not to speak out. Earl Grey's government is the ultimate author of all the crime, of all the injury lo person and property, committed by the incendiaries at Nottingham and Bristol, who, never be it forgotten, wefe singing " God save fhe King," and shouting " Lord Grey for ever," while lliey were murdering the King's subjects,— hunt- ing the King's judge to take his life, — antl of- fering other outrages fen thousand times more dreadful than the taking of life or property. We shall be told that Lord Grey and Lord Brougham cannot wish for the perpetration of such outrages:— perhaps so; but men may often make themselves responsible for what they do not wish. This isalways fhe case when men arc weak enough to set in motion, for their own purposes, the uncontrollable principle of popular licence with the Vain expectation tbat they can limit its agency to those purposes. It is the old story ofthe fool who, thinking himself wi^ e, evoked, for the attainment of some sordid object, an evil spirit, who completed his mission by the destruction of the fancied conjuror. Such conjurors arc Eafl Grey anil his colleagues. Six or seven and twenty years ago, it was said of them, when they exulted in the successes of Napoleon, fliat " though they perhaps did not wish the absolute prostration of England before her enemies, they would be pleased at sticli an amount of public calamity as would bring them into power." This— which was, we believe, an observation of the late Mr. Canning— is as true now as it was when first spoken. The Whig ministers do not, perhaps, wish for civil war, hut they wish for as near tin approach to civil war as shall be sufficient to rivet them in their places. With tbis view they have agitated all the elements of public confusion, stupidly supposing that they can control the explosion. They have received their answer from Nottingham and Bristol. [ From the Morning Post.'] In London we are, it seems, in all future times, to be exempt from such horrible scenes as have occurred at Bristol; for here the preservation of the public peace is to be taken oUt of the hands of the executive government, and all reliance upon the vigour and efficacy of the law is to be superseded by means of a Political Union, which is not only to secure the passing of the Reform Bill, but in the meanwhile to render all government and all law entirely needless; that is, provided the chandler's- shnpkcepers of London Will so far abate of their dignity as to admit their fellow- subjects and fellow- reformers of the labouring classes to an et] ual participation with themselves in the regal and legislative and judicial office they arc abont to undertake, or the labouring classes will sub- mit to the superior dignity and wisdom of the aristocracy of tlie counter. If these high powers can compose their differences and mitigate their mutual also, for the information of your evening contem- porary ( bnt let him beware how he publishes it) lhat iu uo part of England are the working classes Well off'as at Bristol, the place not being subject to those fluctuations iu trade which frequently pro- duce such calamitous effects elsewhere: and thai when the Unfortunate arti/. ans aud workmen of mere manufacturing districts are starving, the same class of persons at Bristol are in full work, Well paid, and consequently prosperous and comfortable. Add to this, that the money contributed by tbe hated Tories of Bristol for mitigating the sufferings of humanity among the poorer classes, exceeds in amount the contributions for like purposes in any provincial town in England. In fact, the city has long been famed for its munificent charities. The satfle may be said of its liberal contributions for the education ot' the poor.. They have been taught to read the bible, and fo cherish Ihe maxims of peace and good will which it inculcates. All this they have learnt from the hated Tories. They have learnt to wield the arguments of dead cats, stones, brickbats, and the torch of the incendiary from the Villainous Times and Other radical newspapers.—*- Iti the Herald of this morning, there is an admirable specimen of the efforts now making to apologise for the riot. An " extract of a letter" from Bristol, mokes it a crime for Sir Charles Wetherell to have promenaded Milsom- slreet, and other places, whilst he slopped at Bath', on liis way lo Bristol—' nay more, Sir Charles is said to' have actually " walked into the cofl'ee- room of the hotel," for which no doubt he deserved stoning! These are your <: liberty" boys. The letter, or pretended lelter, also asserts that Mr. Pinney, ihe Mayor, had at- tempted to secure tbe services of the sailors as special constables, " but tlicy to a man refused 10 be sworn in for the protection of any such fellow !" There's for you, Mr. Editor. Ouly think of a Bristol penny- a- liner popping his heat! out of a hole ill bis garret, and Shouting the conftiAieliotis word " fellow !" after such a man asSif Charles Wethefell! The story of the sailors however is not true. The attempt to obtain their assistance Was made three weeks ago, not by the Mayor, but by a Mrdaxton; and tlie attempt was defeated by the very persons who have all along been employed in abetting the cause of the burners and plunderers; and who now are maddened to frenzy because their pupils, tbe mob, have not been able to wash their hands in the blood of tbe " fellow !" Tbe whole story is 110 doubt a fabrication. But who Would not lie for the causei fradicalism ai d revolution;" Another correspondent says—" I perceive that measures are to be immediately taken to bring tbe actors in the work of reform at Bristol to tlte punishment so justly due to their crimes, tn the inquiry which must necessarily precede the con- viction of the offenders, allow me earnestly to im- press on tbe Bristol magistracy the necessity of precipitate retreat. During the attack upon the premises, Captain Wllkins disengaged himself from his uniform, and adopting the prudent step of dis- guising himself, left the house at tiie back of it. A gentleman then appeared on the balcony in front of the hotel, and told the crowd that the cdptain had left the house; but the intelligence was either dis- believed or disregarded. By this time, however, tbe magistrates had succeeded in procuring the aid of a large body Of respectable citizens, who having been sworn in Ss special constables, repaired, in companies to the scene of depredation, aud soon restored the city to a state of comparative tranquil- lity ; but it was not until between one and two o'clock in the morning that the mob had generally dispersed.— Several of the ringleaders were taken into custody, and conveyed to the Guildhall; and yesterday were committed for trial at the next quarter sessions. Captain Wilkins, with part of his troop, proceeded to Bristol early on Monday morning. GLASGOW PETITION AGAINST THE REFORM RILL. jealousy— Which at present seems improbable — then the Old Bailey may, it appears, be abolished, and Lord Melbourne indulge himself to his heart's con tent by sleeping twenty- four hours in every day. Now this speculation of putting down or rendering useless government and law, of superseding ministers, nnd jutlges, and courts of justice, and gaols and treadmills, and soldiers and policemen, hy so simple an expedient as the institution of a Political Union, is no doubt very attractive to those who, having little or no property of their own that requires protection, are of Course quite at leisure to undertake gratuitously, and very desirous no doubt to monopolise, the duty of protecting the property of others less favourably circumstanced in this respect. But those w ho happen to have any thing to lose will probably begin to doubt the sufficiency of tbis protection when they look at the manner in which the Bristol Political Union — fnr at Bristol they are blessed with one of these invaluable institutions for the preservation of peace and the protection of property— set about the execution of its exalted task at the moment of need. When the fury of the mob was at its height the magistrates' thought fit to seek the aid of this peace- preserving association. The result will be seen from the following passage which we extract from a minis- terial paper: — " An indirect communication ( it is reported) was made by the magistrates to the Political CtiiAu, iu consequence of which ilie Union. published the follow- ing address:—' Tbe council of the Union have beard with feelings of surprise tbat ihe coiporatinn have requested and obtained the assistance of armed troops, for ihe purpose of conducting Sir Charles'IVetherell, in bis judicial capacity, inio Ibis city.

STANnARO.] Though, as respects the empire generally, tliere is little present cause for alarm arising out of the insur- rection at Bristol, lerrihte indeed are our prospects if fhe system which has produced this insurrection he allowed to continue to lacerate the country; or if the men; whose possession of power is a pledge for the perseverance id that pernicious system, be permitted to preside over tlte councils of the empire. It is also a melancholy reflection, that wretches so utterly depraved as the reformers of Bristol should be found to disgrace the name of Englishmen. Wretches* who would murder a magistrate tipon a seat of justice, because that magistrate, Sioagli a man of the mildest demeanour, of the most unspotted honour, and of a noble independence of character, proved by public sacrifices, to which all eyes must be ope; 1— yes, merely because this most amiable man in private life, this most gentle anil impartial minister of justice, this model nf disinterested patriotism, entertains antl avows opinions upon a particular question different from those entertained by tbe bad men who con- stitute the canaille of Bristol, and the worse men who are their abettors through the press, and elsewhere — tie is sought to lie murdered upon the very seat of jtwfice ; ft" riot is raised, in which all the rights of personal safety, all the rights of property, and the sanctity of female honour tire despised;— and the scene is exhibited upon Ibe Sabbath- day! Some twenty- five or thirty years- ago, Sir James Mackintosh being then au Indian judge, gave some offence to a crack- brained Irishman, who insinuated nn intention of shooting him upon the judgment scat. Tbis incident, Sir James made the subject of a long harangue, in which he pronounced, aniring the multi- tude of well rounded no- meanings which make Ihe bulk of bis speeches, tbis cne true and striking sentence.—" Had I fallen, pursuant to the design of the assassin, 1 bad been the first British judge whose life- hlood stained the ermine robe of justice." Now what was tbis designed attack upon Sir James Mackintosh, compared with the attack actually made upon Sir Charles Wethereil? in one case u- e have a mailman threatening to avenge a supposed wrong hy a crime which he perhaps never intended to commit— in- the other, thousands of villains, banded together, and actually levying a war to arrive at the murder of a magistrate,— and when disappninted of that ob- ject manifesting their rage by the desecration of the . Sabbath— of an English Sabbath— to the perpetration of crimes, which we would read iloiililingly if told of Loison's scourge, in Portugal, or of the Cossacks let loose upon Poland. And these crimes have not been committed- to avenge any wrongs, real or supposed, but to punish political opinions— to silence opposition by terrorism, and vindicate what are called u liberty !" midi " reform! !" by murder, robbery, violation, and rebellion. What has been, let its ask, the share of the ad- ministration in producing the present state of society ? The answer is, that tliev are responsible for it all. Their press lias promoted it— their speeches have promoted it. The whole. of their active proceetlings have promoted it— their omissions have promoted it. Are the Attorney General's and Mr. Macaulay's • peechn forgotten' Do we not remember the cor- their fellow. citizens. Tbe council think lluit ' a mint clothed in robes of magistracy ought never lo be a politician,' ns such a magistrate cannot be expected lo possess the public confidence, without wfiich be will always be found incompetent to preserve the public pence. Tbey would therefore recommend to the corporation ihe immediate resignation of Sir Charles Wi'therell ns Recorder, such being iIte means best calculated to prevent riot, antl perhnps bloodshed. Al the same lime tlie council earnestly recommend member* of Ibe union, nnd reformers iu general, at all times of popular excitement, lo use their most strenu- ous endeavours for Ihe preservation of lite public pence, us it is only by such a course tbey will be able to obtain Ihe righis liiey seek. " By order of tbe council, " J. P. VEX, Secretary." " Ori. 55, 1831." " Happy had it been for ibe peace of llie cilv if tlie mngistrntcs burl adopted the recoilutiendation Con- tained in this address." It is not for a moment to be supposed that institu- tions, npon the formation of which so much thought and contrivance have been bestowed as upon that of the Political Unions, are to act upon different princi- ples in different parts of tbe country. They must be utterly worthless for every purpose which they pro- fess or do not profess to have in view unless they are actuated by one common set of principles and feel- ings. It is only necessary, therefore, to parody the language of the Bristol Union to know exactly what would be the language of the Metropolitan Union in a parallel case. Let us try the effect of this very simple process:— " Tbe Council of the Union have beard wilb feel- ings of surprise that Viscount Melbourne, his Majes- ty's Principal Secretary of Stale for tbe Home Depart- ment, has requested and obtained tbe assistance of armed troops, fur Ihe purpnse of conducting I, ord Tenterden, in his judicial capacity, to Westminster Hall. It is the opinion of this Council that if his MHjesty's ministers feel themselves incompetent lu preset ve the public pence without being supported by the military, tliey should resign their offices, and suffer llie members of tbe executive government ly be elecied bv a mnjViritv nf the votes of their fellow, citizens. 7 lie council think tlinl * a man clothed in the robes of magistracy ought never to be a politician,' ns such a magistrate ennnot be expected rb possess tlie public confidence, without which be will alwais be found incompetent lo preserve the public pence. Ttiey would therefore recommend lo his Majesty's ininisters'the mitnediule resignation of Lord Tenlerden as Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench, such being tiie means best cahullnied lo prevent riot, nnd peihtips bloodshed'. At tbe sttnie time ibe coithcil earnestly recommend members of ibis' Union, mid reformers in general, nt alt times of popular excite- ment, lo use their uiust strenuous endeavours fur the preservation of the public pence, ns it is only by such a course ihey will be einihled lo obtain ihe rights ihey seek." This being the language of Ihe Political Union of London, ns in the case supposed there is no doubt it would be, the public peace would lie preserved by their efforts, just as it has been preserved at. Bristol. In the metropolis, indeed, should such ail effervescence of popular fury at any time take place, the case would he more deplorable, so far as political unions are concerned, than that of Bristol, for here we are to have two political unions instead of one— a plairt- speaking union, under the banners of Mr. Wakley, which pronounces all hereditary distinctions, whether of King or Peer, to be subversive of the natural rights of mankind; and a hypocritical union, under the sanction of the more wily Jacobin Burdctt, which for the present does not think it prudent lo go quite so far. They must be fools indeed who expect the actual conduct of the one to differ in the slightest degree, at any season of commotion, from that of tbe other. The feebler of the two, which submits nt present to wear Hie mask of deceit, will tear it off whenever the monient. arrives that impels it. into- ttie arms of its more robust and dauntless brother. securing, not merely tbe deluded wretched who were actively concerned in the outrages, but the accessories before the fact— tbe ringleaders Of tbe rabble— the red- hot ministerialists, who cheered on the mob lo the attack-*- who assisted them in their labours, until their courage failed them, and they thought it necessary to sacrifice the lives of their coadjutors in iniquity, in order to secure impunity for themselves. Let it be ascertained, io the first place, who attended the meeting- of the sailors, which was called for the purpose of forming a body guard, not for Sir C. Wetherell, but for the Re- corder of Bristol ; let it be ascertained, I say, who attended this ineetimr, and insisted that Sir Charles ought to be delivered up lo the fury of the. rabble, and succeeded in persuading the sailors pot to allow themselves to be enrolled as constables. Let it be further inquired who concocted the incendiary addresses which were circulated anonymously through the city, aud who put forth the maui festoes of the Political Union ? Neither should the " respectable tradesmen," who refused to be sworn in special constables, be suffered to escape There is every reason to think that these individuals, whoever they may be, did not confine themselves to this interference; bnt be this as it may, tliere is at least a strong prima facie case against them, and even should it be foutid tbat they had the cunning not to involve themselves in the legal guilt, there can be no doubt that they are morally responsible— that on their head lies all Ihe blood which haS been Spilled on this disgraceful occasion. But there should be no time lost. These men must be taken into custody immediately, ere the execrations of their fellow- citizens shall have driven them into voluntary exile. Whilst ihe comparatively guilt- less instruments are consigned to the gallows, let not the traitorous instigators of the mob be left merely to remorse or contempt.— There is a passage in a letter from a Bristol correspondent in the Ctivricr of last night, which shows pretty clearly that my suspicions with regard to the leaders of this riot are not altogether groundless. The Bris- tol Political Union, according to tbe writer, inter- fered on Monday, and soon put nil end to the dis- turbance. And why did tlrey interfere? Because, he proceeds, they saw that' " plunder, and not political feeling towards Sir Charles Wetherell was ?! I> 7C the predominant and ruling passion." Good Mr. Editor, mark that little monosyllable " MOID"— good Mr. Printer, put it in Italics— it is an im- portant word— a real mul.' mh in parvo ,- it forms the key to the conduct of the rascal reformers of Bristol. So long as political feeling was the " pre- dominant and ruling passion," and plunder a secondary consideration, or rather whilst the mob were so far in awe of their commanders- in- chief as to plunder and murder politically— to attack tbe Tories only and spare the Whigs, then the good men of the Union looked on iu calmness and con- tent— then tliey whispered their poor tools fo kill, burn, and destroy; but when the'servants became too strong for their masters— when the plunder be- came indiscriminate— then they came forward, aud delivered up their q- uondam allies to the vengeance of the law." TO THE KL^ fc's MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. SIRE,— We, the undersigned bankers, merchants, manufacturers, and other citizens of Glasgow, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, humbly crave permission at tbis niOmentous crisis to ap- proach your Royal presence, in order to convey to your Majesty an assurance of otir unshaken and invincible attachment to your Majesty's Royal person, throne, and family. While the Reform Bill, submitted to parliament by yotir Majesty's present advisers, remained under discussion in the legislature, we refrained from publicly declaring our sentiments regarding it, content to leave the question of its merits or defects to the wisdom of parliament; but now that the House of Peers has thrown out the Bill, we feel it our duty to implore your Majesty, as the father of your people, to reject the counsels of those, who, either at this or any future period, may recommend to your Majesty, by any undue exercise of the Royal prerogative, to nullify the functions of the higher branch of the legislature, or to set aside its grave and deliberate decision. nlaced, byonrinvalu- able constitution, as a conservative barrier between theimpatieuce of a free people, and the encroachments of sovereign power, it is ou the wisdom and firmness of the counsels of the House of Peers that mainty depend the safe adjustment of the conflicting ele- ments of political power, and the preservation of the just and necessary balance among the three great constitutional estates of the realm ; and, therefore, it is at periods of the highest popular ex- citements that the importance ofthe House of Peers to the stability of the constitution— on which depend the best interests of the people— is most sensibly felt, and that its independence ought with the utmost jealousy to be guarded. While we are satisfied that the provisions of the late Reform Bill were, in many respects, objection- able, we are, at the same time, sensible that some imperfections in the constitution might be removed, without hazarding its stability— that the right of sending representatives to the House of . Commons from thi< i and other great cities might be conferred with decided benefit— and tbat an extension of the elective franchise, suited to the increased population and wealth of the present age, and fixed on such safe, intelligible,- and comprehensive bases, as the wisdom of parliament, uncontrolled by threats or by popular pledges, may determine, would be gratefully received by us from your Majesty and from the legislature. In conclusion, we implore your Majesty to bear in mind, that this is a commercial nation, with deal- ings to an extent and amohnt unexampled. The history of every nation and every age has shown that commerce cannot exist amidst political agita- tation, dispute, and violence, lfsnch, therefore, be longer continued in this country, about theoretical and speculative points of legislation ami govern- ment, the consequences must be that trade and commerce will seek other shores where they can flourish in peace and security. The result of this change mast bring misery upon the people, destroy tbe finances, paralyse the power, and dismember the proud empire of Great Britain, for which so many heroes have shed their blood, and for whose liberty and prosperity Nelson triumphed, and Wellington conquered. That your Majesty may long continne to reign over a free, contented, and loyal people, is our earnest prayer. deep, ctnd perhaps to have their persons assailed with those missiles with which John hull is apt to stamp hit displeasare upon those, who have betrayed him. fVe own for ourselves wc deprecate such scenes ; hut ice cannot he surprised either that, under the present circumstances, they should take place, or that Tory candidates should he afrdid of them. We can easily picture to ourselves bow grating it must lie to the feelings, niental as well as physical, of a high- born and high- bred young Tory, sent from some club. liotise in Si. Jnines's- street,' or from the snug lodgings of Mr. eit- Secretary Planlii, with tbe wages of corruption in his pocket, and travelling luxuriously to some Comfortable corporation con- stituency, consisting of 13 or 16 persons— we can conceive, we say, how grating it must be to such a holiday candidate to experience the rude reception of ilie iinrepreseuied towns- people, which is almost certain lo nwnit him. We see him, in our mind's eye, present himself to the people,— we liekr the groans which at first assail him,— we see the first discharge of mud, dead cats, and rotten eggs, which encircles his bare and devoted head. Then, as the populace becomes more determined, nnd more excited, we see pebbles and gravel begin to fly— these nre sue. e'eeded by pacing- stones, bricks, Src. and the Co- rinthian capital of Toryism, is forced to retire with a broken head, and through the back door of the mayor's private house. Nor do ibe yells, of which he has been tbe victim, cease to haunt him till he is many tniles on his roatl home again. Thus the King, bis ministers, the great liberal parly, the press, and Ihe people, nre all united. " These" as Home Tonke would say, " nre fearful odds" for llie corruptionists. But the latter, whose blindness and recklessness of consequence are eq'ual to their bigotry, fusil madly on iu their career of folly. Tbey " beard the lion in bis den," and yet bope to go unsCaibed. Once nud again we warn them to desist,— not if they value the lives and happiness of others, for they are too selfish lo be moved by such considerations, but if tbey value their mm. In every borough town, where there is a popu/ tition even of a feui hundred, will they meet the reception which'we have just pictured to them. They will become acquainted with every village pump ; the clear river and the muddy pond will alike receive them ; they will carry away " undesired sam- ples of the soil" fiom each county, and will consider themselves fortunate if contumely and contusions be ' all they meet with. Would it not be belter for these dandy candidates to confine their exertions to the ruined and tenantless walls of their own burgage tenures." Let any man read the above, which was pub- lished ill a paper lhat assumes to be the principal organ of Ihe Ministerial and Revolutionary Party, aud let him then say whether the " Reformers" have been or not the instigators, tbe abettors, and the actors in the horrible proceedings detailed in our last and present Journals.— It would be a waste of time and room on our part to say more upon the subject of the London incendiaries of the Press; bnt we would just observe that a Paper published not 100 miles from a certain swinish part of Shrewsbury, on Friday last, said—" The rabble and the tools of the boroughinongers are theonlv parties interested in creating a tumult." And it very consistently cites " precedents" from those very constitutional periods, the years 1640 and 1641, for dispensing with tbe House of Lords and the votes of the Prelates; aud if it had only pro. ceeded a few years further, it would have found a precedent for beheading a King, and another for setting London on fire.— The same Paper, looking forward of course to tbe halcyon scenes that have since occurred, but a few weeks ago printed some precedents to show that Yeomanry Cavalry and other Soldiers were not exoected to draw their swords " against Reformers."— Do the conductors of such incendiary publications think the public is so blind or so dull as not to perceive the objects towards the attainment of which their efforts are directed ; or do they suppose that, after tbe mis- chief tbat they have instigated has been carried into execution, it will be enough for them to lift up their hands with hypocritical agony, ill an ex pression of pretended sorrow for those deeds to which they have been the instruments of inciting that ignorant portion of Ihe people who alone give credence to their statements. Disgraceful Conduct of the Ministerial Revolutionary Press. DISTURBANCE AT BATH. A- Correspondent' of the Standard, says—" Pray, Mr. Editor, do enlighten one of your evening cou temporarres, who attributes- the success of Ibe bill revolutionists at Bristol to t- h" e cowardice of tbe Tory magistrates. The magistrates are tbe Mayor and Aldermen, and Mr. Mayor is ( save the mark !) a Whig and a Reformer. You may safely state [ From thi Rath and Cheltenham Gazette.] We are deeply concerned lo slate that on Sunday evening this'city was the scene of some disgraceful outrages, ( a recurrence of which, it will'be seen in the sequel, has been effectually guarded against.) In the course of the day an express bail arrived from Bristol, requesting tbe aid of tbe Bath troop of Some/ set Yeomanry Cavalry, commanded by Captain VYilkins, of Tv/ erton. In Consequence tbe captain rode into Bath, clad in his'regimentals, for the purpose of assembling his troop. On his way into the city he was recognised' by some loose characters, who followed him with yells, to the White Hart Inn, opposite the Great Pump Room. Here a pulley ensXied between the captain and bis pursuers, who endeavoured to extort from hirn a promise that be would not go to Bristol with his troop. To this the captain replied, ntiWIy and jocularly, that " he was a reformer as well; is tbev; but lhat lie must go to Biistol to endeavour to pre- serve order," & c. Finding that he was resolved to go to Bristol, his assailants became more infuriated, and on several of them following him into the White Hart, it was found necessary to close the doors of the house. At this moment ( about 7 o'clock) the crowd was greatly increased in numbers, and they immediately commenced ail attack upon the hotel, the extensive frontage of which afforded them but too fair an opportunity of indulging their malice. Stones and various other missiles were thrown at the windows, until scarcely a whole pane was left in them! While this work of destruction was going ou, considerable parties of the miscreants proceeded occasionally lo tbe Guildhall, where thev broke a square or two. It is not improbable that these attacks were tnade upon the Guildhall in order fo prevent the police officers from being de- tached to the White Hart. But whatever wns the policy of the mob, such was tiie effect produced hy these " diversions" into the Market- place. Of course, it was the immediate business ofthe officers to protect the Guildhall— they were consequently unable to proceed to the White Hart, and as no outrages had been apprehended, no special eon- stables had at that time beeCn provided. Tbe wretches iu front' of the White- Hart continued to plv their missiles unmolested by'uity constables or other force. Not satisfied with breaking the win- dows-, at about 8- o'clock » number of the mob pro- ceeded to a faggot- pile in tbe Upper Bristol Road, and possessed themselves of formidable bludgeons, with which they - returned lo the scene of their former outrage, and demolishing llie- shutters of several of tbe lower windows, some of them effected au entrance into Ihe premises. Here, however, they met with a warmer reception than they had calculated upon ; and they were, obliged to make a A ware that their followers and dupes at Bristol and Nottingham have begun their work of revolu- tionary atrocity rather too soon, the Radical Papers ure now denying lhat the Reformers had any thing to do with the proceedings at Bristol !— Some of them have tlie audacity even to insinuate lhat the Anti- Reformers were the instigators of the pro ceeding. One of the Revolutionary Prints, The Sun, says— " Il is gratifying to know that the riots nt Bristol did not in any one way originate with, or were pro- moted by, the Reformers. The mob who excited thein were the lowest at tbe low, tbe basest' of tbe base- wretches wholly iiii'cnntiecled with Bristol— drunken bargemen, and knavish colliers, whose hands were uplifted against nil classes and all parties—: wlio kirevv no distiiictinit of persons — who bad tlo oilier ends in view than siiHply to gratify their own natural thirst for plunder, violence, nnd bloodshed. We firmly believe that when tbe case is— as it must and will be — thoroughly investigated, it will be found that the ultra Anti- Reformers have bad no slight share in occasioning Ibe riots." Now does the authoi1 of this infamous paragraph mean to say that the flOO respectable men who acted as special constables to protect' Sir Charles Welherell in his entrance into Bristol were " Re- formers," and that the assembled rascals of every description, many of whoih wore broadcloth.' who hooted him ou his arrival at Bristol, and who pre- vented him being heard while be opened the Royal Commission, were " Anti- Reformers?''— No: the author of ihe base lie we have quoted will not say this. He well knows that the original organiza- tion of Hie riot is'believed to have been the plan of inert whose sitoation in life ought to have given assurance of better conduct — of men calling them- selves et Reformers"— of men, some of them profess, ing to be religious in a degree beyond the great body of Iheir citizens,— and upon Whom now rests the guilt of all the murders, robberies, fires, and nameless atrocities that have taken place in that city of which they have been alike the bane and disgrace. The Morning Chronicle, howeVer— the advertised medium of the Ministry, gives the lie direct to the Sun, by assuring us that the people of Bristol executed all these atrocities for the purpose of showing the country that they still were true and sledfast " Reformers," and that " no re- action" had taken place there. Hear what this mouth- piece of the Administration says:— " Why, in God's name, will lliey ( tbe Tories) per- sist in instilling the people, by declaring, with nil imaginable effrontery, that a re- action has taken place, arid thai nn indifference lo reform lias suc- ceeded lo the former enthusiasm ? While we, there- fore, deeply regret Ihe nutrnges which have Inken ptnee— and the inure so, as we know a handle will be thereby furnished to the enemies of tbe people, who, of course, will not fail lo alarm the litnul— we'tnnsi nl llie sumo lime reprobate in ibe strongest manner these incessant altempls on ihe patience ol the people. Society is not composed solely of well- informed per- sons, and we cannot, therefore, expect from ignorant nud neglected men the same forbearance under pro. vocation which we are entitled to expect from Ihe former." Thus does the Morning Chronicle whitewash the Bristol Reformers and offer a palliation for their brutal and villainous conduct. I. et us now refer fo the ' Times : that paper now affects to deplore the scenes at Bristol, although, as we shall show immediately, the " Reformers" of Bristol acted iu precise accordance with the in- structions previously given tbetn in that paper. In the Times of the 27th and 3<> th of June last the following language was used : — " A concession lo ibe national demand of a free par linment may avert the necessity of changes which We tremHe to think of, if tbe members of the church England imprudently draw upon themselves ibe sns. picion lliat they are allied with the borougliuionger.

From ' The World of fashion, a Monthly Magazine' HATS AND BOHNBTS.— llats of moire, lined with satin, nre, in our opinion, among ihe innst elegant of those just introduced. The crown is round, and of a moderate height, the brim a litlle larger, and some, filing wider than those lately worn. Some are trimmed wilb ribbons only; others wilh cocks' feathers, arranged in Ibe shape of n branch of weeping willow ; this ornament is placed on one side, nnd a full knot of ribbon on ibe other. Feuille cTAcanlhe, . aventurine, ^ ose colour, aud Swedish blue, are the colours inost in favour for hats. Sometimes tbe satin tbat lines tlieni is of the same colour, but more frequently white. All the new autumnal bonnets nre decidedly of the cottage shape ; more so, indeed, than tliey were last summer. Small brim, cut square at the ears, but pointed in front, ami shading the face very much The crown is placed very fnr back. On Ibe leftside isn small knot, from which issue two- long light bows, and two ends of ribbon, arranged snmelhing in ibe style of ihe wings of a windmill in motion. The curtain behind is very full. Moire snd Gros des Indes are ibe favourite materials fur bonnets. OUT- D'OOR COSTUMB.— Several orders have alrend been given for wadded pelisses. Tbev are composed either of Gros des Indes, or Gros de's Naples, nnd are, in general, nf tbe new colours, aventurine, feuille d'acanthe, nnd de Mainten'on ; ibis last is an extremely rich, but sober, colnnr. Wadded pelisses are msile in a very plain style, nnd nre distinguished only by ibe richness of their material. They hnve n plain tight corsage, with amadis sleeves, tbe upper part of winch ure sustained by clastic bracelets ; they nre very narrow, nnd nre concealed immediately below tbe elbow bv the fulness nf ibe sleeves. There is always a large pelerine, nnd sometimes two. MASS ANN MATERIALS OP lUi. f. iiitBsS — Plain nnd figured chdlys, Gros de Naples, nnd merinos, aie ihe materials iti fa vour ; but we must observe, that very few dresses of Ibe latler material have yet been seen, and lliey nre of the most beautiful nnd expensive kind. Chaly and Gros de Naples ure in equal favour. The most novel corsages nre made a la vierge in front, wilb full backs, which fasten invisibly, or else with a little fulness at top, and drnwn at bottom. An ornament, of a perfectly novel form, somewhat resembling a Collarette, composed of Ihe same material as tbe dress, adorns tbe lop of the corsage. RPAO- NHESSSS IN HALF.

These materials are of extreme richness. Tbe satin v. It reine unites the gloss of the richest satin, to tlte soilness nnd graceful glow of cachemire. A new article, called grot de Tours a rubans de satin, will, it is expected, be much in favour; it fully equals the finest velvets. Tbe gauzes for evening dress are, perhnps, ihe most novel and beautiful lhat have ever yet appeared.

ASSASSINATION OF CAI> O D'ISTRIA, PRESIDKNT OF GREECE.— The following is an cxtract of a letier from Napoli, da'ed the 9th iust. giving a detail of the circumstances attending the death of Count Capo DTstria :— This morning, as the Presi- dent was going, according to custom, to attend th. e service at the church, two men who were waiting at the door assassinated him, ons firing a pistol at his head, and the other stabbing hirn iu the body with a Turkish dagger. He fell dead upon the Spot. The assassins were Constantine and George. Mavromichaelis, the brother and son of Pietro Bey, who has been in prison ever sincc the month of January last. Constantine was immediately killed by the President's guards, but George escaped, and took refuge in the house of the French Consul, who received him . without being aware of the crime he had committed. On learning what had occurred, the Consul refused to give him up to the furv of the populace, but engaged to deliver him into the hands of the magistracy, as soon as a regular demand was made. The senate immediately assembled, by virtue ofthe powers with whifch it is invested by tbe Con- gress, at Argos, and is at this moment employed io appointing a committee to tarry on the Government till the meeting of the National Assembly, which will be immediately convoked. The town remaius quiet, and the commanders of the troops have taken all necessary measures for preventing disorder. The French and English Commanders have also adopted every means for ensuring- the safety of the agents and citizens of their respective countries. The Monthly Magazine says— « These are plea- sant times. The reasoners who argue with the pike in hand, who give their opinions on public men bv smashing their windows, and reform the corruptions of parliament by setting houses on fire; destroying farm- yards, and murderirtg their owners, arc every- where producing such conviction of the goodness of their cause, that the country gentlemen are every- where fortifying their houses, purchasing arms For self- defence, and preparing to stand a siege against the men of purity, freedom, peace, and British privi- leges— The yeomanry in Derbyshire are already on the alert, to obstruct the progress of reform into drawing rooms and escrutoirs, in the shape of thieve* and incendiaries:—" From an apprehended attack npon Drakelow, the seat of Sir R. Gresley, the Lich- field troop of yeomanry cavalry was called out on Tuesday morning, but went no further than the latter place, and returned the same evening. They remain under orders to hold themselves in readiness for service."— T he Duke of Newcastle has had a tolerable' specimen of the vigour of reform, in the burning of his house at Nottingham, and he now keeps guard upon his family seat, with a little armv, as the news- papers represent it, not less than two hundred of hit tenants being in readiness to repel an attack upon a nobleman, whom the radicals represent as a tyrant and so forth, but who is actually one of the best nf landlords, as he is one of the most manly, high- minded, and honest of British senators. Tbe instances Sre gathering fast, and in the meanwhile London itself exhibits signs, by no means equivocal, of the march of stone- throwing and mob- violence. The Marquis of Londonderry has quietly abandoned his mansion in Park- lane, which had become a regular object of attack whenever any half- dozen ragamuffins thought proper to give their attention to politics. He has removed his pictures, statues, and principal fur- niture, and is gone to the country, where he will have better protection than the white- gloved gentlemen of the lounging police. The I)'. ike of Newcastle's house in Portman- square, is boarded up, to preveht the further visits of the " most thinking" rabble; and the Duke of Wellington has very wisely followed the same course for the same reasons. His Grate has? taken the matter with his usual coolness, and has even dropped a witticism on the occasion, if we are tx> rely on report: " Before the duke boarded up all his windows, on its being suggested that he should place his house under the care of a police- officer, he jocu- larly replied, that he could only depend on Mr. Plank."— In the mean time all these removals must act very agreeably on the revenues'of the tradesmen in the neighbourhood of those noblemen. But what is beggary or bankruptcy to a cheesemonger, " if be has his rights," or gets a ten- thousandth part of the glory of carrying Mr. Joseph Hume into the House of Commons as member for Marylebonfe ? The Meeting in London, on Monday, to form a National Political Union, affords further proof of the protection which might be expected from such wor- thies as composed it, were lives and properties endangered in the cause of " no re action." Judging from the language of a person called the Rev. Mr. Fox, wc can have no doubt that such a fellow would himself Carry a lighted brand in Ibe cause of " no re- aclion," with joyful alacrity. Even Sir Francis Burdett, renewing the energies of his youth amid so congenial an assembly, talked glibly of breaking the heads of the opponents of the Reform Bill, as the only way of getting at that sense which would make them look upon it in a favourable light. But this language, atrocious as it was, was not enough for the taste of his thorough- going companions of the revo- lutionary hustings, and resolutions were carried in spite of him, to make a moiety of the Council of tbe Grand National Political Union consist of persons belonging to the working classes! To what a dread- ful state have the Ministers of the Crown brought this country, by allying themselves with the mob and the democratical press! The Ministers themselves must look at what is before them with fear and shame They dare not let the public see the alarm they feel— hut the cause for alarm is very great. They who sow the wind shall reap the whirlwind. REFORM RIOTERS.— A Correspondent of The Morn- ing Post says—" Every body knows that the late French Revolution was manually accomplished by the lowest part of the population of Paris; no men of note, hardly any above the working classes,, actually fought in the streets. The real agitators who urged the nrrob forward, directly or indirectly, appeared not on the scene until their instruments and dupes had achieved that consummation of events which these more cunning Revolutionists had been plotting for some time beforehand. Now, Sir, observe whether the same tactics are not being played at this time in England. It is said no person of respectability ap- peared to countenancc or take part in the outrages at Bristol, though it is admitted that thousands looked on with passive forbearance on the rapine and de- struction perpetrated before their eyes; and we are therefore coolly desired by the Jacobin Papers of the day not to identify the Reformers with these proceed- ings, or to infer from them any thing discreditable lo the Reform Bill and its objects. I appeal to tbe common sense of any man whether these appalling events have not been produced by the inflammatory and seditious attacks day after day levelled by the recognized and official organs of the Government against persons eminent for their services and talents, and against institutions which, one short year ago, were the objects of reverence and esteem even in the expressed opinions of these very same Joornals? Who will he credulous enough to believe the affected and hypocritical disclaimers of these papers that they intend no harm to the institutions of the State ? Were the Reform Bill passed to- morrow it would only be the signal for fresh agitation on some different pretext. The object aimed at by the Radicals is this— an at- tempt at an impossible equality. To pursue this plianfom, scenes of blood and ruin and rapine arc to he enacted, and the Whig Ministry, surrendering it- self to the dictation of these anarchists, care not into what miseries they plunge the country provided they and theirs are all to retain their places and emolu- ments."
