Their Vice- President had twice at least, by large Bills posted abont the city, County of Montgomery, and now in ihe Occupation of I publicly called upon the members to assemble, and pre- Mr. William Roberts; ' together with a very extensive ?" me t0 a"' protecting the city, but I can no where ' learn in what manner they did so, nor what they hava done. Now it is but justice to themselves and the public, that a body of men, whom by their numerical strength have constituted themselves the catechists of parliamentary candidates, and the dictators at Elections to 100,( XX) inhabitants, should be known io, their citizens by their conduct during the late riots. One hundred effective well- disposed men might hare restored order, and could not, or would not, the boasted " Bristol Union," that assumed tower of political virtue and integrity, unite under, tlieir leader, that, comparatively small number to preserve their city fiom hre and plun- der?

After the Recorder had been obliged to leave the city, on account of the tumult, and the Sunday morn- ing commenced with increased and palpable riot, did the Citizens then assemble many efficient organized bodies of force competent to act with safety on a violent mob ? There was great courage aud zeal evinced, but little coolness and management. Is it not the obvious and accustomed duty of citizens in common daily distiirbance, to call out a Constable, and under his authority to seize the offender 1 Should not the in- habitants on this occasion liaVe in like manner spon- taneously throughout the city assembled under their constables, and proceeded from their parishes in bodies, headed hy the Chief or some person in substitution of him? Was the formidable tumult, amounting clearly to riot, on Saturday evening, generally regarded, anil ought not the civil torCe to. have put it down without the aid of military interference .' Have you not been misled by the false and vicious doctrine, that large assemblies of people, formidable in number and con- vened in times of excitement for plausible purposes, and producing hy their appearance fear and apprehension, though not proceeding to positive acts of violence, are lawful, when it is obvious that tbey are far beyond any power of civil force to controul, and may be easily applied to the work of riot and devastation ? Can Magistrates, whilst such doctrine of law is up- held, venture to distinguish upon the precise period when such assemblies become unlawful, so as to use force, and especially military force, under the awful responsibility of the attendant consequences ? Ought such large assemblies to be permitted, when under possible, though unexpected, circumstances they may so increase, and continue undispersed, tbat military force is requisite to put them down? Surely not; and have not too many of you, blind to these consequences- contributed by your opinions atid actions in calling and Countenancing such assemblies, ( where any thing bnt calm discussion prevailed, or conviction on argument was sought), have yon not undesignedly contributed to deceive the public mind, and render it insensible to reasonable apprehension of danger? I offer these remarks not offensively, butas an appeal to your good feeling and sense of iu'stice, in the hope that henceforward we shall as citizens be made tem- perate and cautious, and not endanger ourselves by Courting a recurrence of disorder. Calmness and cool temper, in seasons of excitement, should be inculcated and rigidly practised, and certainly this is of all others Ihe period when these peaceable qualities should ba cultivated and enjoined. cms.

The barrack gates have been closed to prevent the garrison havirip- any communication with the town, the magis- trates have caused the streets and lanes to be cleaned by the f^ re,' engines, and a Committee of gentlemen has been formed, who hive, divided fhe place into districts, aiid visit each house daily in order that all persons af- flicted ifiav ha ve niedjcal'a'id.

A meeting of the nierjieal gentlemen has also laken place, and a report has been made by them, fully agreeing with the opinions'adopted by the shipowners and merchants, and Ihey slate, moreover, that Sunderland ia iu as healthy a state as usual, at this season of the year. The report, it iii satisfactory fo I earn, is signed by eight physicians Mid . twenty surgeons. The cholera, and nothing but the cholera, occupies the papers, brought by the Hamburgh mail this morn- ing. In Sweden, it appears not to have made any im'- piession. In Vienna they are closing the hospitals, and the cordon sanitaires are removed in almost all parts of the Austrian frontier.

I understand the above remark has been much commented upon, the general and just opinion being that liuie is superior to it for sweetening the cottages of Ihe poor. Lime possesses no disinfecting property, and the only means that can be adopted with good effect is admixing a portion of Chlorine Gas with the contaminated air, and there exists not a doubt of its being, in the fullest sense of the term, a preventive against infection in the most malignant fevers. The question is, if the Cholera spreads in England is Chlorine to be employed? if it is. Lime must not be used, as it absorbs rapidly Chlorine Gas, thereby seriously increasing the danger Of infection, as indivi- duals will he relying on a process, the efficacy of which has been destroyed by the means taken to render it more effectual. Whiting ( lime saturated with carbonic acid) does not attract the disinfecting gas; hence its decided superiority tor coating walls where Chlorine is to he a disinfecting agent. I am supported in the aboye remarks by the highest possible authority, Dr. Ure, of Glasgow. When white- washing is resorted to for the, purpose of destroy- ing nuisances common to dirty or crowned habitations, lin'ie should be preferred. The best method for producing Chlorine Gas is- to plae.' e in a - aVcer a small quantity of dry chloride ef lime, aud pour upon it an equal weight of muriatic acid ( sp. salts), itjstantly the evolution of gas will he per- ceptible i the air, of the apartment to be purified should be agitated by moving in it for a few minutes, in the manner of a fan, a body of rather extended surface. ' It may also be procured froin the solution of Chloride of Lime commonly kept by druggists, by adding to it in an open Vessel a small quantiiy of muriatic acid. There' are many other and more economical but complicated methods which may be resorted to, should we be visited by fhe threatening malady. In every instance where Chlorine is employed, and the . mixture evolving gas carried about, ( fie bearer should avoid immediate contact with. it; when it is to remain stalionery it should be 011 fhe most elevated place in the room, for Chlorine Gas is much heavier in comparison with atmospheric, air than water with oil, and in like manner will fall below it. As soon as the presence of gas is evident through an apartment its production should be Suspended, it being better to employ it in small quantities and frequently than to carry it farther than a perceptible extent. When a solution of Chloride of Lime is used for destroying offensive effluvia, it may be sprinkled 011 the ground; hut thus used it has no property to destroy infectious miasma. I shonld observe, that much greater danger is to be apprehended from vegetable matter during its decom- position than from animal matter in the same state. I would, therefore, recommend particular attention to the various receptacles for manure from pigsties, & c. which are to be found iii so many parts of this town, although the inhabitants are so. severely taxed to sup- port our Street- Act regulations.

Marshall and others.— This was an action brought by nn inn- keeper residing at Shrewsbury, to recover £ 23 from the defendants, who were members of a sub com- witS? e for conducting the election of Mr. Slauey in 1830. ' Ihe case was tried at the last Shropshire Assizes, when it appeared that the defendants had given directions in snpply refreshments to some epctors; and that the plaintiff had accordingly supplied to' the above amount. Verdict for the plaintiff: In the Court of Exchequer, on Saturday, Mr. Godson moved for a rule to shew cause why the verdict should not be set aside, on the ground that Ihe supplying of refreshments was a violation of the 7th and 8th of William HI. c. 4, called the Treatilig Act, which enacted, " That 110 person to he elected " to serve in Parliament for any [ ilace in England or " Wales shall, after the teste of the writ of election, " by himself, or by any other means on liis behalf, or " at his charge, before his election, directly or indx " rectiy, give or allow to liny person having a vote, " any meat or drink," & c. It was decided in. tier this act, in the case of tlobbaiis v. Cricket, 1 Bos and Bull, 264, that candidates were not liable for refresh- ments supplied to voters, though hy their directions. On that, occasion Chief Justice Eyre observtd that fhe contract was bottomed in malum prohibitum, and that, consequently, the Court could not enforce it. Lord Ljndhurst— It is evident that an action could not be sustained against Mr. Slaney himself; the party, therefore, should not he allowed to turn round and " IV, " I shall sue the committee."— Rule. granted.

It was attended by rather more than 200 • persons'; 1 some of whom were neither freeholders nor residents j and the remainder, with very few exceptions, mere, dependents of Lord Clive and Sir Watkin Wynii. It therefore proves nothing, whatever use may- be hereafter made of it, lespeeting the state of publ( c' opinion liere, which is suffciently manifest from the fact that a petition for reform was lately got up in great. haste, iji order to be presented to the House of Lords before the commence- ment of the debate, and received the signature of 1,700 householders iu one day,— a circumstance perhaps without a parallel in an extensive and thinly- peopled district. The Black List alluded to is supposed,' 1 know not with what ground,- to have been published as a ruse by the boroughmongers. It was re- published here by a printer, as a private speculation, without 4heknowledge of any reformer. You will observe Mr. Wynn's candid afl'eiiipt to confound the reformers of the present day. wifh Despard and Thistlewood. Considering the previo&. oirtier of the Right Hon. Gentleman, the liumbei; of ajlministra- tions of all prine. ip'es'under which he has held oflice, the fact of his having accepted office under a'MiuistrjJ pledged to reform,— when he vnfed tte February previous against Lord J. Russell's motion for giving members to Manchester, Leeds, and Birmingham, be- cause, he said, it would increase the , number of mem- bers of the Bons'e of Commons by 6,*— il is more than probable that he would: have voted for this very bill, had he been aware of the state of: public pphiion. He belipved it impossible for the Ministry t'n statrd. He did not know that the struggle henceforward was to be, not as heretofore, between the ins aiid outs, but be- tween those who desired the public good, and those who tlesired only their own. His conduct during the late Session of Parliament has been carefully observed, and will be stated to his constituents at a fitting oppor- tunity. file conduct of no borough - proprietor opposed to reform lias been less offensive than that of Lord Clive. He has contented himself with giving two or three silent votes against the measure. It is mtieh fo be re- gretted, that from short- sighted ' views of his own interest, he should attempt to . bolster up a man who is sinking, and who deserves to sink, whose political existence depends upon his breath, and cannot long be maintained even by his utmost efforts Yoiir inserSou of tho above may perhaps be of some service to the cause of reform, and will much oblige, Sir, your obedient servarit, - , Mellington, near Montgomery, October ol. Such is the statement of Mr. " B " of Mellington—. the veritable Tom Thumb of Reform for . the County of Montgomery. Only look how be acts the great man— Tom Thumb of the farce never did it half so well'. Lord Clive has " short- sighted views of his own interest 1"— Mr. Wynn, " it is more than proba- ble 1"— Mr. Wynn " believed it impossible!"— Mr. Wynn " did not know !"—& c. See. What a pity it, is that Mr. Wynn and my Lord Clive had not called in ihe aid of this Nestor? To be serions, was there ever such a specimen of conceited assurance, contemptible egotism, and paltry subterfuge as this letter presents Here is a young man 25 years of age, not content with gratuitously arraigning the views of gentlemen who were Senators liefore he had birth— which, if he chose, he had a right to do;— but he goes further, and lie has the modesty to presume that he knew the undeclared opinions of the one, and to question the understanding of both 1 It is not for us to enter upon a defence of the gentlemen assembled at the Montgomeryshire Dinner, whom Mr. " B." ( who w; as not present) has the delicacy to call " dependents ;" nor is the character of Mr. Wynn, so audaciously attacked in the above epistle, so little known as to require that we should volunteer our services to pro- tect it from the tilting straw of such an assailant ; but Mr. " B." has been pleased to refer to a petition got up in the county of Montgomery, and which, lie Kays, receiied the signatures of 1,700 householders " in one day"— a pretty long ilay, we should think Tliis is,' however, a question of fact; and as we bap pen to know something about this affair, we shall re mark, that it was signed ill sheets by the dozen by a leading man or two among the Montgomeryshire Re- formers 1 nnd the sheets thus headed, but in many instances bearing no petition— blank in every respect except as to these names— Were sent out along the highways and byeways in every direction to receive signatures 1 The tables, it is true, were thus fur- nished with gtiests, but their value may be inferied hy the means taken to obtain their attendance.

It is a exercise of the divine impulse of charitv is illustrated by the blessedness which it diffuses, and inculcated bv every trait and every incident by which that benignant influence is exemplified. It is a mirror, in which Old Age may contemplate, with meek submission and reverend thankfulness, the traces wherewith Time lias marked his flight of many years of mingled bitterness and blessings; in which Ma' hood may behold, as in its own embodied visSgf, the fulness and the vigour of its prime; and in which both Age and Manhood may see reflected, as if by magic, the animated features of Boyhood, and the gradual developement of yotilhfnl power and " lustihood." Such is the Woik which, in gratitude for the delight it has afforded usf we now- most earnestly recommend to the perusal alike of the young and of ihe old.

P. are to meet this day ( October 21st>, at the Townhall, in Pool, to celebrate his late return as a Member for the County, I hereby request that yonr Lordship, as chairman, will accept of this written declaration as my proxy. That it is my unwavering opinion that Mr. Wynn, as ortr Representative, during 33 years, in twelve sue-- cessive parliaments, anil during eventful times, has gained and secured the entire confidence of a vast ma- jority of the freeholders of the connty. That in future, however the political pulse of the nation may beat, whether symptomatic of sanity or delirium, the freeholders of tlie county of Montgomery cannot place their dearest rights and interests in safer hands than those of onr present long- tried and highly- respected Representative; whose talents are universally acknowledged, whose integrity is above all suspicion,-, and whose Cambrian nationality has ever been unJ wearied. If it be ficcounted an honofir to Mr. Wynn to repre- sent a populous and opulent county fn Parliament, it is still a greater honour to the cotmty of Montgomery to be represented by a Statesman and Se' a tor of such established character, whose qualifications- entitle him to onr undivided support, if ever it becomes again necessary for him to require that, freewill offering of respect and gratitude at our hands.

T 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 our highly- favoured Country ( and which, indeed, if Report be correct, has already entered our Borders) as to excite, not only sinih Fear and Alarm in the Breasts of many Individu- als, but to induce even a Committee of the Lords of His Majesty's Most Honourable PrivyCouncil to adopt jreat Rules and Regulations proposed by the Board of ! dealth as, in its Estimation, may be calculated to prevent, if possible, the Introduction and spreading of this Disease iu the United Kingdom. It is at such a Time as this, and under the threatening Aspect of such a Visitation, that J.

But however accurate such Statements may be, it must be admitted that all infections Influence depends chiefly on the predisposed State of the Body, in Reference to the Blood and other Juices. If this were not so, wc should find, where con- tagious Disease or infected Atmosphere prevails, all the Inhabitants of the Place would be affected at the 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 contagious or not contagious, the Purification ofthe Blood and Humours by proper Medicine is indispensibly necessary, and the only Way in which Strength and Energy can be imparted to the Body, so as to enable it to resist successfully the opposing Evil. Now, this cannot be better 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 Cholera has prevailed, triumphantly evinced their Powers in totally subduing and eradicating the Disease. The Mode of Treatment in Cases of Cholera Morbus iraetised by the Members of the British College of Ieahh, and. their numerous Agents throughout the Empire, is simply thus, and will he found the most certain, ilnd most economical, of all the Remedies hitherto prescribed; and that the Patients will be perfectly re- established in the short Space of a Day or t wn, or less; in most Cases not being sensible of any Attack at all, if the Universal Medicine is immediately had recourse to. As soon as the Patient feels any Symptom of the Disease coming on, he will take twelve, fifteen, or twenty Pills of No. 2, ( dissolved or otherwise,) which immediately will allay the Spasms ( the most dangerous Symptom), and procure easy Evacuations, upwards and downwards, which at once carries off the Disease. In severe Cases, the largest Dose should be repeated in six Hours; in more lenient ones, iii twelve or twenty- four Hours; but the most prudent Way is, if perfect Ease is not restored, to repeat the Dose, and afterwards to continue with Nos. 1 and 2 alternately, and tile Powders throughout the Dav, till well. Warmth and nibbing over the Stomach and Heart are recommended. No other Medicine is requisite, nor should be used. Weak diluting Drinks, or warm Water alone, are recommended. To Persons residing in the Country, and at a Distance from Medical Assistance, it is indispensably necessary iha. t a. Supply of the Medicines, particularly of the No. 2 Pills, shou'd be kept ready at Hand : they will then have- nothing to fear from an Attack nf this dread- ful Disorder; and as a Preventive, by occasionally taking small Doses of the " Universal Medicines," will tend to ward off the Attack, or render it less severe. Some Accounts of the wonderful Effects produced by tbe Medicines mav be seen by referring to the Handbills, and to the different Agents. J.

The following declaration was lying at the Com- mercial Rooms on Wednesday morning, but was suddenly withdrawn after it had received 22 signa- tures, and we have not heard what became of it : — " BRISTOL, NOV. 8.— The undersigned inhabitants, liable to serve as jurors for the city and county of Bristol, and others exempted by their professions, feel it their duty, at the present eventful crisis, publicly to declare— " 1st— That the calm and impartial administration of the laws is not only the first duty of a Judge, but is also a sure means of upholding the dignity of his office, at d of securing for nim personally the respect and admiration of all good citizens. " 2d— That it is therefore a great detriment and mis- fortune to the community, that the judicial functions should ever be entrusted to a political partizan, who can hardly fail, in periods of excitement, to become obnoxious to portions of the public; and that the association ofthe two characters of tndge and leader of a political party in the one and the same person is Ivghly injurious to the dignity of the laws, aud a fruitful source of animosity and discontent among the people. " 3d— That with these sentiments the undersigned cannot but express their opinion ( while they willingly bear testimony to his uprightness as a Judge), that it is the duty of the present Recorder of this city, Sir Charles Wetherell, either immediately to surrender his judicial oflice, or t( i withdraw himself trom the contested field of politics; as they are persuaded that, so long as he acts in the double capacity of Judge and Politician, the interests of justice iu this city willbe compromised, party sp rit be rendered more violent and bitter, aind ihe feelings of a large number of his most respectable fellow- citizens be directly outraged and insulted. Had this declaration been |> ers » ted in, a number of gentlemen would have submitted & protest, to the following effect, for the signatures of their fellow citizens:— " We, the undersigned, having seen with considerable surprise a Paper lying lor signature at thc bar of the Commercial Rooms, declaring the sentiments of the subscribers to be, that the person who holds the situ- ation of Judge ought not to possess the privilege which every Briton, of whatever class, enjoys, of holding and speaking his own opinions on political subjects; and making that Declaration applicable to the Learned Recorder of this city, Sir Charles Wetherell; do hereby enter our protest against such opinions, as an encroach- ment on the birthright of an Englishman, and as unjust and partial in the case in which it is thus applied; and our further opinion is, that if such sentiments be enter- tained, they apply equally or more so to the opinions of tbe present Lord Chancellor, the Lord Chief Justice, the Attorney and Solicitor General, and every other Judge holding that situation under the present Govern- ment."

We have all along asserted, and we repeat the fact; that the firing of the city was the result of a long- concerted plot, the extent and nature of which time will unfold. One circumstance has come to our knowledge, from respectable authority, which we feel it our duty to sfate. A gentleman, high in the army, a resident of our neighbourhood, was irt Queen square between the hours of two and four o'clock on the Sunday morning, and saw a rtell- dtcssed malt assuming the character of a director of the ferocious proceedings. He entered into tOnversatifllf with this man, who told him that the affair intended to have taken place in February next, though many had fixed It for the 5th of November; but lhat the e* cite- ment anticipated on the arrival of Sir Charles We- therell was considered a favourable ntomrnt for carrying the plan into effect at an earlier period. The mode of setting fire to the building" in the Square had been systematically arranged. Many of the incendiaries were observed to fix a piece of wool, len or camlet again. t the parielling, saturate it with a composition which they carried in n kettle, and apply a light; and almost simultaneously small chemical balls were thrown into the windows, which immedi- ately buret into a brisk flame. In more flian one part of our last and present Paper we have been led to remark on the boasted feats of the Pol it cat Union in restoring order. If we are rightly informed, at no period did thU Club consist of more than 200, while at Ie » st4000 special constables were enrolled on Monday morning, and were actively employed throughout the day in protecting the city. It is confessed, too, that Mr. Herapath, the Vice- President of the Union, harangued the mob ort the Sunday evening, " and could make no impression on them.'" At what period, then, were tlte exhortations of the Club of any avail ?— nnd let us put another question, an answer to which. Under legul enquiry, cannot long be delated,— are there any members of this Political Union Under committal as rioters ! We understand that all the plate at the Mansion- house WHS saved, with the exception of a large silver salver. An investigation has been entered upon in the of, ice nf the Cotuiiiander- in- Chief, from which niauy important disclosures are anticipated. Great pains have heen taken to have it believed that among the persons now in custody, on charges of riot and plunder, there, is not a single ten pound householder. We nre not now going to dispute the fact, and the Reformer*, in the absence of proof to the Contrary, are entitled to make the most of It, as they have already bCgUU to do, But they cannot have their eyes shut to a fact, more than sufficient to stop their boasting, and make their side of the scale kick the beam. They have already anticipated what We mean, which Is this— that the large mass of plun- dered property Which the order of thc Magistrates has been the means of disgorging, tuas found in the dwellings of ten- ponndor three. a d tenpenvy house- holder*. Now there is an old adage which tells ns that " the heulor is as bad as Ihe stealer"— a " wi « e saw " which at this time points with very inconvenient application to" modern instances " The law, too, l- e it remembered, hold, the concealer to be mote deeply culpable than the thief, and a Wa Ms him a double riieed of punishtnent. ' Jl'he proof ( s before the world, thai the houses of llie very class iri Bristol which tlje revolutionary Bill would have riijscd to the elective franchise, were the places chosen by the rebel* tfhere to lodge their plunder in supposed security. [ FROM THE ftANtiXnD.] We have reason to believe that. Parliament fitit meet until after Christinas, so tlpitjhe country is to remain two months more Without a government, ai the mercy of— what shall we call It? " tiie Union conspiracy," or fhe ochlocracy. One of thc reasons assigned for procrastinating the; meeting of, the legislature , is, that it is desirable to' have a full. atid patient and uninterrupted disclmure, 1 before a speciitl Commission, of the transactions of the Reformers at Bristol, to precede the meeting of the two houses. We know, indeed, that a special com- mission fo Bristol has been determined upon; we know also that Derby and Nottingham are now to be included ; but we know that never witsany step takert hy a government with so ifiuch reluctance as the issuing bf ( his commission. , The eagerness wit|< which eiirh member of the Cabinet laboured to blink his proper share In the business p'roduiet) a scene which would be ( aughiible were not the Subject so awfully serious.. Earl Grey was siclt— Lord Althorp had great doubts — Lord Pnlmerslon was enveloped in a cloud of Dntch papers— Lord Durham went abroad— and ' he Lord Chancellor, thoiigh it was the first day of ferin, absented himself from town, in the hope that the commission might be prepared, and sent to him, to relieve him from all responsibility in affixing the great seal, beyond what was merely official. The commission wa « ; however, inevitable, Com- 7 pleted it. has been; and the Derby and Nottfngharrf Cases,, which were previously deemed not worthy of so solemn in inquisition, are, as we Im've sa, d, iiw eluded in it. We can easily appreciate, am\ we Mb hardly blamed the unwillingness whith the Cabinet feel to direct the sharp sword of thc law against wfetche* who have only heen following up the consequences of the advice Which these ministers, and their supporters of the incendiary press and of the Infstifigs' have f- epeatedly given. The comntori feeling of humanity woulii render this a most revolting duty, even tVere it not a dangerous one— dangerous | n the highest degree; however, it will be found, if the acctised defend them- selves as tffey may— and as the leaders in the Bristol rebellion will, if THEY are brooght to the bar of justice— by a disclosure of their private as Well as public correspondence during the hist twelve months. We know how the organizers of the meditated reform rebellion of White Conduit House defended them- selves after the A ttorney and Solicitor- General ( lei The Time* deny ( his if it can) had pronounced that any act of Monday's meeting, summoned as it wasj would, lie ITIFSH TREASON, arid that therefore the convoking of that meeting wns, under tlii circum- stances, a high treasonable misdemeanor. Weak in understanding as the ministers are, they cannot think that the conviction of two or three ( if the lowest arid most miserable wretches, who merely availed themselves of the prochihried saturnalia of 4 reform rebellion to get drunk arid rob,' will satisfy the justice of the country, or stifle the inquiries which will be made iri Parliament— which inquiries the King must read, though care is taken that he read litfle else. What, then, ii the purpose of the intended delay ? I « it that Lafayette Burdett arid His Worthy aidt- de. cAmp, Mr. t'enenden Shiel, may organize their National Guard, according to fhe adVice of the Times, inconsulto rege, and While Parliament is not in existence? We profess our inability to answer— we only know this, that Lord Grey's Cabinet cannot go out with safety to themselves, and that nothing; but some such revolutionary measure as the proposed National Guard can prevent their dismissal. Ther hav" brought matters to that point, that there ii no hope for the country but in their utter ruin. REFONM MEETINGS.— There have been a few of these affairs got up in adjacent counties,' for the pur-, pose of requesting Ministers toi keep their places! which, as Mr. George Robins says, " is quite a work of supererogation;" for those most efficient person- ages are not at all dispo- ed to quit, nor will tliey until they receive marching orders. The attendance* at these meetings has woefully fallen otf in numbers, and still more so in respectability. Few, indeed, of the gentry of either Warwickshire, Worcestershire,* or Herefordshire, have taken a part in tl. em.— The late occurrences at Bristol, Nottingham, £ cc have acted as warnings Iri those who have any thing to lose, and they hate accordingly brooght to their recollection that ancient adage—" It is a foul bird,"' & c; In the report of one of these meetings, a gentle- man is made to mountebank it in capital style under the title of" the Reverend Doctor," & c. who happens to he a mere LL. D. ami is iri fact, no Reverend at all! Few, indeed, have been the iristarices where* men, filling the situation of gentlemen, could be found to heap abitse upon those who IWve maintained the interests of the country hy upholding its Constitution. — What the real objects of those who are most pro- minent in these affairs are, may be gathered from the fact, that placards of the following description were exhibited at Warwick, & c :—" No Corn Laws"— " No Game Laws"—" No Tithes"—'' « No East India Monopoly," & c. & c. At the meeting in Lincoln's Inn Fields, the other day, the assembled reformers fell foul of each other, the chairman refusing to pttt a resolution proposed by one of the speakers, until Mr Jo9eph Hume, M. P. stepped forward and calmed the storm, by represent- ing the necessity of union amongst all reformers, reserving matters cf difference Until the Reform Bill should be carried, which would then be a stepping- stone for what further might be required.' MVTTOFI ti. MYTTON.— This wa « a suit promoted by the wife against the husband t'Or a divorce, on the ground of great cruelty ltnd adultery.— In the Arches Court, on Friday last, the Judge ( Sir John Nicholl), afler stating the facts of the case, pronounced judg- ment for Ihe divorce. In thc Court of Exchequer, Sn Monday, the" important came, Sniall v. Atlwood, came on. It respects the sale of certain Iron- Works concluded between the defendant, Mr. Attwood, and the plain- tiff, Mr. Small. The plaintiff, to whom the works were sold for £ 600,01) 11, objects to ply the whole amount of the money on the ground that they * r> not worth that sum, and that the saie was effected urider fraudulent representations. The reading of the bill and Ihe answers occupied six hours, and at four o'clock the Court ndjourned until eleven o'elock on Tuesday. The proceedings were then resumed, and Mr. Knight commenced bis opening speech. The Counsel retained by the defendant are Sir Edward Sugden, Mr. Jervis, and Mr. Knight, whose fees are sfated to lie in amount unprecedented in the history of legal proceedings The trial has not yet terminated. Two cases have recently occurred, one in London, the olher in Scotland, in which poor friendless buy « are believed to have been murdered by gangs of wretches, for the sole purpose of receiving the sum to be obtained bv selling their bodies to tlte surgeon.. The gentlemen of Giiy' « Hospital, front the appear- ance of the body brought there for sale, suspected lhat something Wrong had occurred, and had the gang of wretches ( four in number) apprehended.

Duncan Neil Sra '' SALOPIAN JOtMMAL, AND' COURIER OF WALES. To the Editor o f the Salopian Journal. nt. Shrewsbury, Nov. Wlh, 1831. SIR,— 1 read, lost wok, an advertisement relative to a new road from Shrewsbury to Bishop's Castle; which proposed t. i diverge, from the Minsterlev road, near the Nag's Head, between Pontesford and Pon- tesl. nry, and so to leave Pontesbury and Mjnsferley t< i the' rijiht of the new line. I have since heard that an alteration will be made, and that the new line will not ton mence until after pas- ing through one Or both of those villages, and so by Hogstnw Milk into the ronte originally designed. The advantages of this alteration are too clear to require much remark. A very heavy expense will he saved by doing away with so great an extent of new road, mostly passing over very difficult ground;, the ravines between Minsterley and the hills requiring bridges will lie avoided; t* o populous villages wid be placed on the line; and Minsterley, being from nine to ten miles from Shrewsbury, will be most convenient, for baiting, or for any relay of horses. If the distance should be increased by somr Utile, which 1 much doubt, that would be more than compensated by these advan tages, added to an easier ascent towards the hills. But, Sir,' I question whether all Ihe conveniences expfcted from this communication will he realized without one other work, the absence of which is much fell in this side of our country. We have good turnpike roads to Ihe west, north- west, and south- west from Shrewsbury ; but there is scarcely a pass- able communication from any one of them to anolher, unless by coming almost up to this town. An excel- lent opportunity is now afforded to combine so important an object with this new road to Bishop's Castle, by opening u tiood road from. Montford Bridge to Minsterlev. There would not be required two acres of purchased land throughout, as it would take the line of present parish roads, very direct, mostly very wide, though now in a most neglected state. One arch would cross the Rea brook, either at a place called the Lea or the New Mills, both in Pontesbury parish, and thus there would be a good and direct communication from the north east to the south- west of Shropshire; for by improving the road towards Baschurch beyond Montford Bridge, all this would be effected. No one could doubt but with such an opening the new road to Bishop's Castle from Minsterley would he a prosperous under taking. From Montford Bridge to Pontesbury is about eight miles, at least four of which would run over existing turnpike roads. The line would be by Preston into the Pool road ; on Ibis to beyond the Pavement Gates ; thence to the left over Fordsheath to the hamlet of NOx on the Westbury road, Where only a short declivity requires fo be a little eased ; across the Westbury roaii by Newnham House to the hamlet of Lea; and then either by Hinton and the New Mills into the Minsterley road, or by crossing the brook just below lea into the same, which latter, though some trifle longer, would require less road to be improved. I fear, Sir, lhat until'some such work as this is undertaken, the accommodation created by improving any single one of . our communications to the west will- be very much confined. 1 am, Sir, Yonr obedient servant, A WAYFARER. passed, and as Mr. Place and Mr. Stevens had no objection lo the continuance of the sittings of. parliament, there was no help for it,—- the bill must be passed;— except, however, the royal assent given to this bill, can there be shewn any other exercise of the royal authority, for the last six months, but the creating peers and dubbing knights. " The king,'' as Burns says,— '' The king can make » belted knight, A marquis, duke, and a' that,"— but it wo'iild be equally unconstitutional, insulting, aud false, to consider his Majesty as having had the least personal concern in any of the pitiable mea- sures, which, for the last year, his ministers have called the government of his empire. The plain truth is, lhat, except ou the single question of Reform, the ministers are wholly powerless. On any other subject, Ihey have no command of either house of parliament, nor any support in any part of the country. How did they survive the Budget?— By Reform. What saved them from dissolution on ihe Sugar Bill ?— Reform. What has enabled them to go on after the failure of the Scotch Exchequer Bill ?— Reform. And what at lust passed , the Bankrupt Bill?— Fatigue and Reform. As long as they can keep that top spinning, they may stand— when that whirl shall be exhausted, down they go! They are not ministers, but the effigies of ministers — the puppets of a show, moved by dirty hands behind the curtain— a strange senate, whose pomp- ous insignificance and decorated nothingness serve only to set off tbe vigour and spirit of the con- spirators on whom the real interest turns. The spectators are much more curious about Mr. Place as Pierre, and Mr. Stevens as Jaffier, than they are bow Lord Grey looks Ihe Doge, and how Sir . lames Graham and the Duke of Richmond robe the Senators! But even a. tragedy has at last an end— the audience begin to yawn— the curtain must drop — and tile Doge aud the Senators must slink out of tlieir robes and chairs of state to their common garb and their ordinary avocations : the spectator w ho meets them next day in the street, nudges his neighbour on the elbow, and says—" Is not tbat the fellow who played the Doge last night?— how small he looks! Pray see the Senator of yesterday,— what a poor figure he cuts this morn- horses, and were lent and prepared for the occasion bv their trainers. At twelve miuules past seven, all llie arrangements being completed, Mr. Oshaldeston started, lie was dressed in a purple silk jacket, black velvet cap, doe. skin breeches, mid top boots.

Are these the bigoted opinions of us ' Lories STATE OF THE GOVERNMENT. [ From the Quarterly Review.] The wisdom of the original views of the Anti- Reformers aud ihe reluctance even of lliose who were ilie roost anxious for the representation of the great towns, In enter upon a system of change, have been vindicated by their antagonists in a very re- markable manner; for his Majesty's Ministers have expressly declared that / AeyJiuve uot now contented themselves wiih proposing representation for the great towns, or any of the other mitigated plans to which tliey had formerly limited their views of Reform, because they are aware that the first step • would involve all the rest,— that any enfranchise- nient founded on a principle of population must lead fo the most extensive consequences, aud would be, at last, found incompatible with the'maintenance, not merely of noininatioii'bor'otighs, but of any cor- porate rights or proprietary influence. < l When I' see,-'" said Lord' Joint Russel,— • € l iny ' opponents leave the ground of practice mi'd prescription on wliichthey htive planted the banner of 1 lie Ctiustiuilioli, nnd make oiiy movement towards Reform;- I tun inclined lo exldnitn, its Cromwell did when lie Sow Ihe Scotch- army leave lheir. stron'ir position ou the heights of Dunbar— 1 The Lord hath delivered tlic/ n. into bur hands. 1" This decorous testimony lo Ihe soundness of, Ihe polity of the anti- reformers ought' never to be for- gotten ; and if the principles of his Majesty's ministers be just,— if any change involves every change,— it'creating a new franchise is, in fact, the destruction of all existing rights— if we can do nothing without pledging ourselves to do everything; — or, in other words, if any reform, however limited, must eventually lead lo the application ofthe general arithmetical rule of population,— then,, in spite of its anomalies, its deficiencies, aud even its abuses, we, for our own parts, would abide by what exists— And rsdier bear the ills we have, Than fly toothers that we know not of. Neither the minority in the Commons, nor the majority in the Lords, nor the moderate reformers, nor the sound portion of the country at large, can be prepared to embark in a voyage to which the mus- ters of the ship tell ns that they see no end, and on an ocean which they confess has, to their knowledge,- no port, nor even shore! But it is now become clear even to the Ministry, — it has been long since meed upon them by the Op| osrtioo,— lhat their difficulties are only com- mencing :— they have been overtaken rather earlier than they expected by their Frankenstein Monster, — they ure shocked by his insolence aiid disgusted nnd alarmed by his audacity. He wiil not permit them fo pause; lie forces them to run the whole career they have been so mad as to open ; lie insists on their drinking, even to intoxication and death, the poison they have broached. What the Ministry now intend to do we do not presume to guess; we very much doubt whether they themselves know ; but we will unhesitatingly assert, that if their new bill should- be framed on tbe principles of the former, its injustice, partiality, aud absurdity, will render the opposition of the anti- reformers still more zealous. For our parts, we despair of the Ministry's being able to extricate itself from the difficulties into which it lias blindly and obstinately run. We do liot believe thai they have the'moral- Courage to confess Iheir error, and throw themselves back on the good sense and firmness of the sound and sober part of the country for refuge and for help. Still less, we fear, have they either the fortitude or the force- to resist— to repel— to subdue the popular storm which they have created'. By the first course we might be saved ; of the success of any other, in their bands, we are almost hopeless. The issues of life and death are in Ihe hand of God, and w ith reverent reliance on thai providence which has so Often rescued, and so long protected, our happy country, we cannot despair ; but it is our firm opinion, that if tbe Ministers, contrary to their own acknowledged wishes and judgment, should,! in obedience to Mr. Place aud Co. [ who composed the Radical deputation to Earl Grey] reassemble parlia men! in the present ferment, and should persist in passing any bill equally efficient— that, is, equally outrageous to Ibe feelings of one part of the people, aud equally inadequate to the inflamed demands of the other'— anarchy is'a! hand, and that they them- selves will be, not. the last, victims of a convulsion which Iheir own blindness has prepared, and their own folly precipitated. But . why'talk of Ibe ministers'as proroguing or assembling parliament ? lbe ministers appear to, have much less real share in such jlecisiohs tliau Mr. Place, Mr. Carpop, and Mr, Ste'vcps. We ( lave Lord Grey's, own ' a. v6wal.,. tlie. he was, previous to the midnight intrusion of Plaee- aud Co.

You will receive no reply:— if you name Lord Althorp, he shakes his head,— if Lord John Russell, he uroans,— if Lord Grey, he shrugs his shoulders,— if the Lord High Chancellor, he iaughs in your face. But it is, to be sure, the most enter- taining Chancellor that ever rattled the seals or straddled on the woolsack; everything he does is forcible, everything he says is clever, but, some- how, all is ludicrous. In Ihe House is he great ? " No, but so amusing!" On the bench is he awful ? Bless your heart lie's droller than Liston !" De- claiming— jesting— judging against time— an En- cyclopaedia interleaved with Joe Miller— the object of abundant wonder, but of scanty respect; with great talents, little character— and a combination of qualities, high and low, which leave one in doubt whether their possessor is really a minister or only a mummer ! But all Ihe multifarious talents of Ihe mercurial Chancellor cannot redeem— nay, they enhance— the monotonous and mischievous imbecility of the majority of his colleagues. The Places, and Stevenses, aud Carpues, never venture to approach him; they, like true Dogberries, " bestow their lediousness" on the " urbanity" of Lord Grey, the kindness and. attention" of Lord Althorp, and Ihe " heartfelt gratitude" of Lord John Russell! The . days of such a Cabinet are numbered— they may, and probably will fall before their Reform Bill ( its failure has hitherto kept them alive); they certainly would not survive its success a month. Where are their , friends— their support— their allies ? Tbe rank— the property— the education— ihe intel- ligence— the literature— the commerce of the coun- try?— No, no; Ihese are all their inveterate enemies. Their friends are tbe populace aud tbe press— Ilie press and Ihe populace— ring the changes as you will— this is the sum of their support. * * * The populace and the press'will desert or forget them; good sense will resume its authority— de- liberation will weigh experience against theory, and cetiainty against chances, aud the Ministry is gone! 9 21 38 Skirmisher ( 2d time) 9 21 j, 19 Guildford ( 2d tilfie) 9 8|.|(| streamlet 8 20! 41 Donegani . 9 45i 42 Hassan 9 fflj 43 Surprise filly 8 10j44 Ringleader ( 2d time) 8 8 45 Tranby ( 4th time)..

The intense interest manifested in all parts of the country will excuse our entering- fully into the par- ticulars of this match. Since the famous ince between Sir Joshua and Pi I ho da PtilQ, or the. no less celebrated one for the Claret when Moses won it, nothing- has occurred to attract so great an assemblage to New. market. Parties; arrived from all parts of the kingdom, and on Friday night not a bed could he obtained at any price; several were under the disagreeable ne- cessity of sitting* up all night. The influx was confined to Newmarket. Cambridge and every other place within ten or fifteen miles of the Heath profited bv the occasion ; nor was so glorious an opportunity of " laying if on" suffered to pass by. The very early hour appointed for the commencement of the match caused a hustle in the town at a time that uilist hnvi astonished the natives ;" for what with hazard and cards the over night, aud the little there is in I he plnce to render it an agreeable morning promenade, thegentry are anything but early risers. From six in the morning till nearly five in the evening business was the order of the day— Mr. Osbaldeston on the Cambridge side of the ditch, and the legitimate racing on the other ; several hundred horsemen galloping backwards and forwards as the intervals between the ' matches enabled them fo watch the progress of ** the Squire," as Mr. Oshaldestou rs familiarly termed t » y his friends. We shall finish our introductory remark by observing that the attendance, was immense, hut certainly far less numerous than might have been ex pected if the weather had been fine. The match was made previous to the July Meeting between Colone Oharriie and Mr. Osbaldeston for l, 0d0guineas a side, ihe latter undertaking to ride 200 miles in ten hours on the ensuing Houghton Meeting, the number of hors heitig unlimited. It was originally fixed to come oft' on tlie Moiulay after the meeting ; hut on the objec tion Hi at this Would be a violation of the articles tl time, was altered for Saturday. Up to the last wee the backers of I hue. were numerous, the contingencies being all in their favour; in the first place, Mr ()*. baTd, estou1s age ( forty. seven) was considered Jn jmiral to his doing two hundred miles at tt rncin_ pace, while the mere fatigue of mounting and dis mounting it was thought would be sufficient to giv him what is quaintly termed . a tie- up. Again the urged that a horse might fall lame or turn restive, be aw kward Io mount or pull up ; the weather, too, might he unfavourable ; in fact, that putting aside all these objections, it was a task requiring nerve and stamina that could scarcely he expected from any man, how. ever young and vigorous ; on the oilier hand, nothing- could possibly happen to prejudice " Old Time.'" This party, therefore, appear to have looked upon the undertaking a « almost equal to one of the " seven labours/' That some of tlie contingencies speculated upon did occur will he seen below; it will also be perceived that they did not operate much in favour of tlie lime'* party. Several of the most experienced sporting gentlemen backed Mr. Oshaldeston from a knowledge of his almost iron constitution, vigorous hahiiu, aud general capability for a hard day's work ; and il must he admitted that rowing iu the summer, and hunting, throughout the winter in all weather, constitute recommendations of no ordinary nature; iii addition to this, the " Squire" has taken extra- ordinary pains to qualify himself for his herculean • task, especially in the last week or ten day*, frequently riding foit'y, fifty, or sixty miles a. dav in the teeth of a. wind that " cut like a razor." Tlie ground was measured over the Round Course,, beginning and ejiding at - the Duke's Stand. The saddles were covered with larab- skin, and marked with the names of the horses to lie ridden, and the order in which they iv. cre lo he brought to Ihe post ; refreshments ( con- sisting of weak brandy and water, warm jelly, cold partri. dge,. & c.) and changes of clothing,, were pro- vided; the latter, however, were, not required, Mr. Oshaldeston preferring to continue in his wet clothes to losing time in shifting theni. The. umpires were Mr. Bownter for Colonel Charrite, and Mr. TeMuson for Mr. ( Hbaldeston. The distance was divided into benis. of. four miles each, and was performed by the • foUo. wiirg horses :— Mr. Sowerbv's Paradox, Mr. ,$ fl\ vejby's. Coroner, Mr. Sfoneliewer's Fairy, Mr. (, i u I. I v' s Trail by, Mr. Gully's colt hy Tramp, Mr. Arnold's J.) ojlv, Colonel Russell's Skirmisher, Mr, Rush's Guildford, Mr.- Henry's Tam o'Shauter, Mr. DilH'V'EI Dora'd. o, Mr. Yeasley's Coventry, Colonel . Wilson's Ringleader, Mr. Pefit's Ipsiila, Mr. Wag- stafTs Sti'eauhlet, Lord Ranelagh's Douegaui, Hassan ( late I, ord Qufensberry's), Mr. Chifuey's Surprise filly, a horse by Smolensko, Mr. Rogers's . Acorn, and eight others w lio were cocktails, and most of them the property of Mr. Osbaldeston ; those named are race- l.. ours. In 171.'),* Mr. C. Tliornbill rode from Stilton to Lon- don, and hack, and again to Stilton, being 213 miles, n 11 hours and 34. minutes. In 1762, Mr. Shaftoe rode 50 miles and a quarter in 1 hour and 49 minutes, with 10 horses, 5 of which were ridden twice. In 1763, the same gentleman undertook to ride 100 miles a- day for 29 days together, on any one horse each day, the number of horses riot to exceed 29. He accomplished it on 14 horses, and on one day rode 160 miles, on account, of the tiring of his first horse. In 1708, Miss Pond rode 1,000 miles in a thousaud hours at Newmarket. In December, 1800, Mr. Milton, the horse dealer, who weighed 15 sione, rode from London to Stamford ( starting from the corner of Dover- street) in 4 hours and 25 minutes, using 18 horses. There are many other feats on record, hut none lhat n. ake any approach to the one " performed on Saturday. THE PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. To one body in the Peers the admiration of every true patriot is in an especial manner due. The Bishops have long been held up to public obloquy as servile courtiers ;— ever at the heck of the Crown, and incapable of exercising the independent rights of British statesmen What have such calumniators now to say ? Have they yielded to the mandates of the Crown, or been intimidated by the fury of the democracy? Tempted by all the seductions of court favour, threatened with all the violence of republican ambition, denied promotion by the Ministers, threat- ened with confiscation hy the populace, how have they acted ? Like true patriots, like men of firmness and integrity, the worthy successors of the primitive martyrs, whom neither menaces nor allurements could swerve from the path of duty. Of what incalculable importance is the House nf Lords in the British Constitution; and liovv well does it deserve the praises so long bestowed upon it by the greatest and best of mankind. The extraordinary ability, the moral courage, tlie- magnaninious disinterestedness, displayed by the British Peers, during the late discussion of the Reforni Bill, were the direct and immediate conse- quence of the intermixture of plebeian ability with aristocratic feeling in their ranks; and the fortunate exertions to which the youth of the nobility are driven to maintain their ground against the incessant pressure of talent from the lower classes of society It is in this circumstance of inestimable importance, that the real cause of the elastic vigour of the British aristocracy is to be found. Who were the men who have stood forth pre- eminent in this memorable coir- test ? The Duke of Wellington, trained to exertion in the wars of India and the fields of Spain ; Lord Harrowby, bred in laborious exertion in domestic government; Lord Eldon, whose great abilities forced him from a humble station to the Chancellor- ship of England; Lord Lyndhurst, whose talents pressed through the terrible competition of the Eng- lish bar; Lord Wharncliffe, long a tried and experi- enced debater in the Lower House; Lord Wynford, once the able leader of the Southern Circuit. It is the competition with such men ; the incessant mea- suring of their strength with the greatest abilities which the Commons can produce; the long aud stormy education- in the Lower House of Parliament, which developes the intellectual powers of the Eng- lish nobility, and compels even those, bred in the lap nf wraith anil luxury, to submit to the severe labour, and strenuous exertion, by which alone greatness in any walk of life is to be attained. " Wherever democracy prevails," said Roycr Col- lard, in his speech to the French Chamber, " you may hid a long farewell to peace, tranquillity, indus- try, wealth, and happiness. Democracies are ever suspicious, turbulent, irritable, prone to war, creative of suffering." Such is the language of one of the ablest of the liberal party in France,— of the firm friend of freedom, but the stern enemy of democratic oppression. Gnizot, the profound and enlightened historian,— Thiers, the able republican annalist of tbe revolution,— have joined their great talents with him to support the hereditary Peerage— the last stay, as all really enlightened men in that country well see, of order, freedom, and happiness. At the moment that itis sinking there amidst the waves of democracy, tbe British Peers hate stood forth with unprecedented dignity; and against the ark of their patriotism the surge of revolution has beat in vuin. May such ever lie the conduct of the English Barons; may the great example of this year be remembered to the latest, posterity ; and as the waters of the deluge are beginning to recede, may the green hills ere long begin lo appear, and the dove bring the olive branch to a suffering- world ! The legal dignity, of Recorder of Bristol is in the gift of the Mayor and Corporation of that city. It was eonferrred on Sir Charles Wetherell, in 1826, when it became vacant by the death of Lord Gifford. % Vhat is the course for the country to pursue ? The King has obligations to fulfil towards his people as solemn and as binding as those which the people are bound to observe towards ihe King. The Iving should be told by addresses and remonstrances that it is impossible for the country to go oil three months longer unless he is graciously pleased lo exercise the authority which baa been sacredly delegated to him ; the lives and property of his subjects are not safe; the great mercantile interests of the nation are in jeopardy ; the state of society is such that a man opposed to Lord Grey's faction is liable to be assaulted and assassinated, his house burned, and his valuables destroyed; nor is it possible, while the government cling to power by means only of terror and excitement, that the government can or will take decisive measures to hinder or check the work of devastation. When Bristol was blazing, her jails untenanted ruins, her bishop's palace de- stroyed. and forty or fifty houses fired, then such orders were given ns checked the rebels ;— at Not- tingham, after the Duke of Newcastle's house was burned, the military paraded the streets ; in London, after the Duke of Wellington's house had been left at the mercy of the mob for more than an hour, the police arrived— although Lord Melbourne must have known, or ought to have known, f° r police ma gistrates knew, that an attack upon it had been long meditated, and the hour even fixed when lhat attack was to be made;— and when the police did arrive, what did they do ?— did they seize any prisoners ? — did tliey secure any of these reformers, in order that by examinations and investigation it might be as- certained who they were, aud by whom employed? No;— even au individual since identified, was per- mitted to ride about 011 horseback, directing the movements of tbe mob, and guiding their missiles so as to produce the greatest cffect. It is notorious that the majority of the wealth and intelligence of England is opposed to the present measure of reform ; surely the time is come when a general declaration of Sentiment should be fearlessly made; of what avail is the consciousness of the in- fluence which the anti- reformers actually possess in the nation? None! if it remain silent! The loyal and constitutional men of England should speak out, in firm aud respectful language, to the King himself — he is the father of Ills country— we have a right to his support against faction and rapacity. Lrpon tbe King, then, let the country call— to put an end to a reign of misrule, which those are supportiug who are backed by his royal name; let him recol- lect tliaf each estate of the realm is held by the constitution of the country, equally sacred ; that the faction who would trample on the peerage, for merely executing the purposes for which they were made part of the constitution, will feel very little difficulty in disposing of another branch, if it suits their purpose or their pleasure to do so. Let the King ask himself who the men were who served his royal father, and bis royal brother, so as to raise the nation to the highest pinnacle of glory — to make lier at once the dread and envy of Europe, and finally consolidate her honour and her interests in the most honourable peace she ever concluded— let hitn ask himself under what government the victories of the Nile, Camperdown, St. Vincent's, and all the conquestsof Nelson, Howe, and Duncan, were achieved,— let hiui ask himself under what ministry was the gigantic power of France quieted — under what government the hundred fights of tbe immortal Wellington were fought, aud the course of unchecked- victory consummated at Waterloo— under the administration of those who were always opposed to the present ministers. Then, let the King ask himself under whose ad- miuistiatiou the British arms were disgraced in South America— the British honour tarnished at the Dardanelles ;— let him inquire what ministry it was lhat doubled the income lax, which it had before denounced as tyrannical, monstrous, and oppressive — and lie will find that every thing untoward ( except, indeed, Ihe recent barbarities of Navarino), lhat has happened to England during the last half century, bus been produced by the party now in power. I11 short, let the King give the country fair play — England is inherently loyal— the King of England is dear to every Englishman in his kingly capacity. — Why, then, are those, who are devotedly attached to the King and Constitution, to be denounced by men, who, having got possession of the royal person, are determined to retain it, by the most flagrant misrepresentations of the feelings of the people, while, on the otlier hand, to retain tbeifavonr of the people, they misrepresent the feelings of the King. We say—- Let us appeal to the King— let us address him— and let us endeavour to rouse his Majesty lo a sense of the awful situation iu which lie is placed. THE ROYAL PROCLAMATION.— It has excited a feeling of more than surprise in the minds of all constitutional adherents, that, in the Proclamation issupd for suppressing the seditious disturbances at Bristol, the King should not have been advised to express his disapprobation of such a treasonable attack on tire person and office of his Representative, in the exercise of his high judicial functions. His Majesty knows the man, and is fully sensible of the purity of his character; and it is for the Sovereign and his advisers to consider whether it is fitting in these times, and consistent with the preservation of the orders of the Slate, to omit any expression of the Royal feeling on such an extraordinary and unusual occurrence. It is however, trusted that there will yet be some expres- sion of the public feeling and sentiment on such a flagrant and atrocious violation of the judicial charac- ter. There seems to be but one opinion as to the true cause of this brutal attack ; and it cannot fail to operate to the eternal disgrace of the Ministers, since it is in vain to attempt to exculpate them from the charge. THE MARQUIS of BUTE AND THE Bisnor OF LLANDAFP.— It is much to be lamented by every honest man that, j# hen so much excitement exists against the Revered Bench of Bishops and the Lords who voted agninsfphe Reform Bill, the paper, called the Black List, filled with the vilest falsehoods and grossest exaggerations, should be allowed to be hawked about the country uncontradicted. Our excellent Lord Lieutenant, whose purse is always open to relieve the distressed, is there described as a pensioner on the country to an enormous amount. We repeat our former assertion on this subject— viz. that his lorrship does not receive one farthing from the country! The Bishop of Llandaff ( whose Bishopric has long been proverbial for its poverty) is described in the same list as having 26 livings and an income of £ 13,540 a year! His lordship has only one living, which is less than £ 200 a year— viz. Bedwas, in Monmouthshire; and the whole income of his Bishop- ric, including this rich living, is not more than £ 850 a year!— a sum so inadequate to support the reason- able dignity of his situation, that the Deanery of St. Paul's has, for the last few years, been added to the See of Llandaff. The whole of the Bishop's income may be, therefore, about £ 3000 a year, with scarcely any patronage— The Cambrian. The South West Yorkshire Yeomanry Cavalry, at a most numerous meeting held at Sheffield 011 Monday week, appointed a deputation to wait upon Lord Wharncliffe, to express their confidence in his lordship as their colonel, and regret forthe conduct of part of the Doncaster First Troop, in forwarding a memorial, signed by a round robin, calling upon his lordship to resign the command of the regiment in consequence of his opposition to the Reform Bill. On Saturday his lordship summoned the troop to meet him at Don- caster, when he removed the dissentients, amounting to thirty- two, from the regiment. " We understand," says the Leeds Intelligencer, " that the ' ringleader' in the affair is a druggist at Doncaster, named Maw. As he did not venture to face his colonel, Lord Wharncliffe repaired to his house after the meeting, and there gave him his dismissal."— The Noble Lord read the dissentients a lecture which they are not likely fo forget during their lives. He said lie should prove himself utterly unworthy of that commission which he had held tinder three Sovereigns of this realm were he to lay it down, without any breach of discipline or honour on his part, at the call of a few persons, who seemed to be as ignorant of their military duly as disregardful of his rights and feel- ings. He stated to them in what manner they had subjected themselves to martial procedure, were he inclined to retaliate, and demand eye for eye and tooth for tooth. He would, however, adopt a line of conduct more consonant with his feelings, yet equally expressive of his just disapprobation. The whole of the persons who had signed the round robin were dismissed; they no longer belonged to the corps; and they were apprized that their arms and accoutre- ments would he demanded of them on the following day. His Lordship was aware, he said, that some twenty of the thirty- two had sent in fheir resignation ; but they had done it, he had a right to assume, because they were conscious that they both deserved and were sure to meet with dismissal. On Friday, the 28th ult. the Sparkcnhoe Troop of Leicester Yeomanry dined with their Captain, Earl Howe, at Gopsal The troop paraded at eleven o'clock, and after going through a field drill sat down to an excellent dinner at two o'clock. In proposing " prosperity to the corps to which he had the honour to belong," fhe Nolde Earl adverted, in terms of merited disgust, to a paragraph which appeared in a contemporary journal, calling on the regiment to shew their feelings on political topics, by deserting the officers whose sentiments on a late measure were not in unison with their own. The Noble Earl ex- pressed his perfect conviction that such advice would never influence the regiment. If once politics were allowed to mingle in their duties as yeomen, he for one should cease to belong to tbe corps; and being certain that his comrades would agree with him in thinking that the only legitimate object in yeomanry in general was Ihe protection of public and private property, the preservation of the King's peace, and a due observance of the laws, he treated such insinu- ations with the contempt which they merited. The Marquis of Hastings immediately rose, and agreed in the strongest manner w ith the sentiments which had fallen from his Noble Friend. Although there might be differences in politics between them, yet lie said, with pride and satisfaction, that he agreed with every sy llable which had been uttered, and that he, at ail events, would never be wanting in performing his duty, and marching to whatever point his services might be required in these troublesome times. The Countess Howe and the Marchioness of Hastings honoured the field with their presence while the troop went through their different movements, and a numerous and respectable body of spectators assem- bled to witness the review.— Coventry Mercury. RISE IN THE PRICE OF CHOLERA MORBUS DitiiGS.— Since the promulgation of the remedies to be applied by those persons who may be afllictcd with the cholera mrrbus which have received the sanction of the Board of Health, spirits of wine and camphor, and the essenlial oils of peppermint, cloves, and cajeput, have risen in price upwards of 100 percent and many of them ate with difficulty to be procured at all. We may instance the following; the prices quoted are the wholesale charges :— Foreign oil of peppermint, which three weeks ago Was a " complete drug" in the market at 10s. per lb. is now with diffi- culty attainable at 2f> s.! The English oil of pepper- mint is so scarce that the price is nominal, 60s. per lb. being freely given for the same quality which was lately easily obtained at 25s. and 30s. In cajeput oil the most extensive rise has taken place, viz. from Is. per ounce to 9s.! A fellow, during the past week, has managed to pick up a good living, at the corner of St Paul's church- yard, by vending" cholera mor- bus bull's eyes !" " Cholera morbus cigars, to prevent infection," are in great request at the west end of the town.— Alas for John Bull! THE INCENDIARY PRESS. When the Revolutionary Bill was rejected, the editor of the Times vowed that he would not guar- antee the state of the metropolis for a single week ; i. e. lie expected riot and revolution would instantly break out in the metropolis. He was aware, that had the seditious articles he bad written produced their intended effect, tumult and disorder might hare been the consequence. The seditious shopkeepers of Mary- le bone posted up their placards— the shopi, forsooth, must be closed on Monday ; meetings con- vened in every part of London ; the welkin was to' ring from Apsley House to Wbitecliapel; the voice of an insulted and sovereign people, like awful thunder ( much louder than the thunder of the TimesJ, was to wake the proud, the ignorant, and factious Peers to a sense of their duty. A few shops ( and very few) were partially closed ; some window, broken; some stones thrown. The rejection of the Reform Rill mas borne quietly enough. And here is the secret of the riot at Bristol. The Radical press, stung by the indifference of the people, began io toil desperately at the work of madness. Seditious and inflammatory articles, in extra quantity and malignity, were circulated. The people were strenu- ously exhorted to FORM UNIONS, not only for mutual protection, but for the purpose of overwhelm- ing those who were falsely said to be inimical to their liberties. Through the same recommendation, public meetings have been held ; language has been used mischievous and even diabolical; and the vile speeches of depraved and illiterate Radicals, divested Of their coarseness, circulated from one end of the country to the other. The institutions of the nation have been held up fo the derision of the worthless ; and the Peers, the Bishops, and the Church, loaded with the foulest obloquy. The air rang with the execration of creatures impatient to riot in the blood and property of their superiors. If any one ventured to oppose the demagogues, hearing him was out of the question ; he might be content to escape per- sonal violence, and to endure the ridicule of the Radical press for his pains. Such scenes have begun, and have been going on; no steps taken to clicck them ; and can we wonder at what has happened ? Sir C. Wetherell, in bis official capacity, visits the city. He is told there may be some excitement: he is determined to go; and every one must admire his firmness nnd sense of duty. After the scoffs and hisses, on his arrival, symptoms of insubordination: broke out. Reforming tradesmen refused to be sworn in as constables; the Reforming Mayor had neither sense nor authority ; the work of Republican vengeance commenced, and proceeded with fatal aud irresistible force. Let the respectable population of large towns, whatever be their political sentiments, learn wisdom, and be cautious how they join the canaille in undermining a Constitution, which alone can save their lives and the fruits of their honest industry. MIRROR FOR MAGISTRATES.—- The Mayor of Kilkenny, in reply to a requisition, thus declines to call a Reform meeting;— Viewing the office I fill as a solemn trust confided to me by the respectable body I represent, whose rights and immunities I have sworn to maintain, I am of opinion that, without a total dereliction of my oath and of my duty, 1 could not in any shape be accessory to the efforts of its avowed enemies to diminish its revenues and to obliterate its existence." PRICE OF A CLERGYMAN.— In 885, Charles the Bald purchased the retreat of the Norman invader, engaged in Ihe siege of Paris, by a present of 7,000lbs. weight of silver. In the same year the Monastery of St. Denis'redeemed its abbot from captivity at the expense of f> 85 pounds of gold, which may afford some data for the arithmetician to calculate the re. lative value of a monk and a metropolis in the ninth century.

Without adverting to the disgraceful riols at Bristol, excited, no doubt, by the declamatory speeches of empty enthusiasts on the subject of Reform, enough of warning may be gathered from the character of the late Metropolitan Meeting, to apprise some leading men of the Association how much easier it is to raise a storm than to direct it* course or abate its fury. The elements of discontent, like the electrical fluid in the substance of matter, are evermore latent in tiie human mind, and a little agitation will cause an eruption destructive as the spouting lava of a volcano. Can any one imagine ( hat ten out of ten thousand who vociferate for the Bill at those unlawful assemblies know any thing about the contents or the clauses of which it is com- posed ? yet we have men, ostensibly representing tbe working classes, who assume the privilege of equal influence, and claim the right of legislation in con- junction with experienced senators— thus disputing the palm of wisdom and authority with their patrons and chiefs, and evincing that presumption which dis- plays the course of democratic domination. Can the wealthy, the wise, or the wary, be blind to this mani- festation of a spirit as hostile to the friends as to the foes of this new experimental measure of an imbecile and encroaching Administration; and do they not see tbat the only preference they can expect is, to be the last victim of their own folly and pusillanimity ? As to the working classes, who are they ?— The most valuable in society while they remain in reality working classes, and while they aim at no other pre- rogative than the wise government of their families, of themselves, and. of their occupations; but where idle ambition, or delusive desires, stretch their views to the guidance of empire, or the projection of politics, they relinquish their sphere, forget their duties, sacrifice their interests, embarrass the legis- lature, increase their own burdens, and hazard the independence of their country. And, with all defer- ence to the march of intellect, we venture to say, that in the same proportion as a people become impatient of controul, so will they be implacable in authority and unreasonable in counsel. But it is a libel on the working classes to impute to them the discontent, fhe outrages, and the presumptuous pre- tences of the pestiferous pretenders: they are not of the working classes, but sncli as are too lazy to work, and too wicked to wish well to any but themselves. Those are the self- constituted deputies, not of the industrious working classes, but of the demagogues and swindlers, tag rag and bobtail of every descrip- tion. Working classes, indeed ! can any thing be more anomalous ? The working classes, like the bees, mind their business, and are too much occupied to waste their time in that which contributes to nothing hut opportunities for pickpockets, specula- tions for swindlers, and advantages for the ambitious and the vain. But we ought, it is said, to stand up for our rights. True ; but first let us be sure to observe our duties: these are in our own power, and while lliey are neglected no rights can be ekpected ; for they are reciprocal and co- existent; they live or die together. It is our duty to resist innovation, to preserve decorum, to support good order in society ; to be individually honest, to quench the ebullitions of unreasonable discontent, to excite no discord, and to raise no expectations which are likely, by becom- ing abortive, to engender strife, rake up rebellion, or put to hazard the peace and happiness of our country. Have not some violated these duties? Let tlieui beware lest they forfeit their rights. Let the people of England lake the state of Ireland as a warning in this matter. In that country they have had Political Unions for the last fifty years under every variety of designation, and not a few of them armed, too— would the people of England like to transfer to this kingdom the state of society which exists there? We are persuaded that nothing but the headlong obstin. acy of party feeling could blind prudent Englishmen to the folly of these associations, the business of which must interfere with the due attention which every sensible man should give to his own affairs. For our our parts we should look upon the list of tradesmen who enrolled themselves in these Unions as a kind of anticipative Gazette— a probationary exhibition, soou to be followed by promotion to the list of Bankrupts or Insolvents. EXTRAORDINARY LARGE PEARS.— On Satur- day, the 5th iust. seven pears were pulled from a tree growing in the garden of Mrs. G. Chambers, a widow lady at Faversham, in Kent, of the follow- ing extraordinary size and weight, the largest per- haps ever produced iu this country ;— lb. oz. Ist pear weighed .. 3 3 2d .. 3 0 3 d ... 2 14i 4th .. 2 13i 5th .. 2 6th .. 2 fH 7th .. 2 l| Total weight of 7 pears 19 1% The pears were weighed by Thomas Bedds, Ihe gardener, in the presence of a number of persons who were invited to, see these Mammoth pears. The largest pear measured 10$ inches long, and 17 inches in circumference. The smallest pear mea- sured 8 inches iu length, and about 13 inches in cir- cumference. The tree 011 which the pears grew was only planted four years ago, and is rather small. This is the first year tbat it ever bore fruit, aud it only bad seven pears. Mrs Chambers sent the pears as presents to several of Ihe nobility in the neigh- bourhood. SHREWSBURY:
