II. J. , t W. LLOYD, Solicitors to Ihe Assignees . Ludlow, 11,' A Nov. 1831. by them at the conference of 1815. It is not until lie has obtained unequivocal proof that the powers arc- resolved to violate their most solemn obligations, tbat he resumes his rights as an independent Sovereign, and demonstrates to wondering Europe tbe folly of alarm at the revolutionary phantom. Having beaten the faction, nnd driven their bands in shameful rout through his states, the Conference compels him lo evacuate these his own provinces at the very moment when peace and happiness, property and industry, were recommencing their reign in Belgium. And it is in such a crisis that tbe Conference dis- poses of more than half this Sovereign's kingdom in favour of the chiefs of a rebellion, distinguished by nothing so much as its cruelty, outrage, and insolence, in the beginning, except indeed by its dastardly cowardice in the first moment ol* danger; imposing at the same time upon Ibe despoiled sovereign condi- tions fatal to the best interests of the loyal division of bis subjects. What a moral lesson for the future! But be these associated sovereigns the supreme arbiters of the world, let tliem, however, at least begin by shewing some respect to justice. If they really intend the peace of Europe, they will. If you persist iu robbing your ally and brother sovereign; at least acknowledge his right lo an equi- valent ; let him be compensated by the restitution of his colonies, or, if tbat be inconvenient, by some corresponding indemnification upon the continent. England, which charges our King with obstinacy, to her view of what Europe, the greater part of his kingdom, will uot herself make the slightest sacrifice to that object, while she vaunts so much of her anxiety for peace and the general happiness. I appeal to any impartial man, whether so reason- able ami just a claim can be deuied to the King of Ihe Netherlands? Yet it has been determined by the Conference thnt, as the reward of her loyalty, ber patriotism, and her gallantry, Hulland shall see her King the only victim offered up for the peace of Europe— tbat she shall be distinguished by the honour ofmakiug all the required sacrifices. But, Sir, I still dare to hope that nothing hut force will extort from Holland a submission to the iniquitous arrangement, and that that force will meet wilh a resistance terrible in its desperation; and I know lhat if we fall in such a struggle, every throne in Europe will be shaken by the moral conscqiicnces of our overthrow. Happily the Conference has allowed itself a re- spite, in referring its adjudication to the personal revision of the sovereigns in the last resort; anil surely those sovereigns can never sanction a decision violating in its principle and in its details whatever has hitherto been regarded as most sacred amongst men. 1 have the honour to be, & c.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1831. t!( gr Tlie " Recipe for Chole. a," and other articles LYONS. REBELLION AT " We have received hy express the Paris journals to yesterday, their contents are of the most motoeutous interest. The people of Prance are now reaping the first fruits of that dehwcriitical bias by which ihey dis- graced their revolution— a revolution so jnst in its principle, and so honourably conducted though its first stage. The harvest sowed in popular excitement — tbe idleness and interruption of public credit, and consequent poverty, which popular excitement ever produces—- is now manifesting itself in outrage upon life and property. The seiond city of France,— in avowed imitation ofthe second city of England,— is in rebellion •, and, if we may credit the p. ivate corre- spondents, w hose statements are father confirmed than discredited by the scanty communii a' ion of the French journals, the insurrect on of Lyons is of a description that threatens to extend through France. The formidable popular movement broke out in Lyons amongst the silk- manufacturers on Monday fast For many months back— from indeed Ihe first shock given to credit by the excitements of last sum- mer— these unfortunate persons have been in a slate of great misery, and of discontent proportionally violent: few were employed, and even these few were in Ihe receipt of wages wholly inadequate to support them and Iheir families. The master- manufacturers were not, however, to blame. As many as were able to do so kept their works in activity, and paid in hire the utmost farthing they could afford. It need not be said, that they who acted thus were influenced much more by humanity, a regard for the public peace, and for the security of property, than by any expectation of profit; the tariff of wages, compared with prices, indeed demonstrates that they could not carry on their works otherwise than at a loss. Neither these sacrifices, however, nor the authority of the government could long postpone an explosion, where so much cureless wretchedness was fermenting. On the morning of Monday a vast number of un- employed workmen assembled on the Croix Rousse, the highest, most populous, and most miserable part of the town, apparently menacing an attack upon the whole city. They commenced their operations bv pelting with showers of great stones the young men of a better class, and the National Guards, who manifested a disposition to obstruct their march. According to accounts received in Paris, on the evening of Thursday, it would appear that M. Bouvier Dumolard, Prefect of the district of the Rhone, and General Ordonneau, Commander of the Natioi al Guard at Lyons, were at this stage of the tumult so imprudent as to throw themselves unat tended into the body of ( he insurgents, in the hope of bringing them to reason by remonstrance, entreaty, and negociation, and at. least with the expectation that they would be treated as mediators, not as enemies. They were, however, both instantly made prisoners, and ( he General seriously wounded in the face by a bayonet. Something like a general engage- ment tl'. en followed, in which, according to the ac- counts just quoted, Ihe troops of the line exhibited Very little zeal in resisting the rebels, and left the w hole weight of the combat upon ( he National Guard. The Guard, it is said, on the other hand, maintained the struggle with desperate obstinacy, losing many of its most estimable and distinguished members. Among fhe numerous killed are named the son of Colonel Pouilly, and several of the most eminent citizens of Lyons. An exact account of Ihe killed and wounded lias not been obtained, amidst the dangers and con- fusion of these deplorable scenes, but it was feared fhat i( would he lamentably great. The latest news receivi d at Paris, on Thursday night, represented I he insurgents as still in possession of their strong position at Crt » ix Rousse, and the government authorities as sending in the utmust alarm for reinforcements from the neighbouring garrisons on every side. At tbe sitting of the Chamber on Thursday evening, the general inquietude displayed itself in a very re- markable manner. The ministers did not know whether to occupy or to leave their seals. After a short hesitation of. undisguised apprehension and anxiety, M. Montalivel fairly rushed out of the as- sembly to assure himself with his own eyes that the scenes of Bristol and Lyons were not about to be repeated in Paris. M. Trnnelle, Mayor of Lyons, and Deputy for that City, immediately set out post, to assume the duties of his municipal office, and the other Deputies, his colleagues, seemed to be plunged in the most profound consternation. Some Deputies went so far as to insinuate that Ministers were holding back more disastrous news than they bad announced, willi a view to operating upon the funds— an impu- tation which could he cast with reason only upon a Stock- jobbing Cabinet. The Duke of Orleans ( the King's son) accompanied by Marshal Soult, set out for Lyons on Friday.— This was announced to Ihe Chambers the same evening by the Ministers; and on the next day the Chambers voted an Address to tbe King assuring him of their determination tu maintain order, and- to put dow n the insurgents. An English family of the name of Saunders is stated to have been murdered at Lyons by the in- surgents— This family consisted of a gentleman, his wife, one son, and three daughters— the latter of whom were first brutally treated, and then murdered. The latest news from Lyons comes down to the right of the 23d and morning of the 24th, when the rebels wCre iu scarcely disturbed possession of all the strong positions around the city. Their numbers having been reinforced from the adjacent towns and districts to the number of 45,000 or 20,000 men. Monday, Tuesday, aud Wednesday presented one continual scene of conflict— robbery, murder, and violation. The insurrection was, in the first instance, supported by a considerable proportion of the Na- tional Guards, uho deserted to the rebel side with tno pieces of cannon— another proof of the danger of indiscriminate armaments. Having fuilid to accomplish any thing by arms, the authorities tried nn Wednesday night what could be done by negociation— successfully, according to some reports in town, to which, however, we do not attach much credit. Another report asserts that Gen. Roguet could speedily bring sixteen regiments upon the city, a force which, if it were faithful, would pro- bably be successful in suppressing the rebellion; but as the re! els have manifested a disposition to proclaim a republic, and Napoleon the Second as its president it is not impossible that some of Gen. Roguet's troops may imitate the third or half of the Lyonese National Guards, w ho are already arrayed against the govern ment of the Citizen King. English reader, are we to apologise to you for having bestowed so much room upon what seems to be a foreign occurrence ? We think not. If you do not feel that tua res acta est— if you do not sec ( hat what has passed at Lyons is less a copy of our Bristol reform- rebellion than an example of what must take place in all our manufactur. ng towns, should our whole course of policy be not promptly changed, you know til tie of the nature of mankind and of tbe present state of England. Remember that the Lyonese have had their reform, even to the length of revolution— lhat they have a government which aknowledges lhat it has no will but ( lie com- mand of Ihe populace, that they have been flattered and indulged by a span new coinage of Peers; yet they are in rebellion. What do Ihey want further' They want bread — bread which they cannot eurn which reformed, and revolutionised, and politically pampered as they are, they have no prospect of ever being able to earn-, and why? Popular excitement lias driven capital out of their country, and destroyed credit, the vital element of which is do. nestic peace Such are the the consequences of « a bill, a whole bill, aud nothing but a bill." Such are the conse- quences of plunging a whole people into political fanaticism, and then leaving thein to starve.

This collection consists of above Two Hundred splendid Portraits, forming the Gallery from which Mr. Lodge's celebrated work ofthe Lives and Portraits of Illustrious Persons are in course of publication; and it is now for exhibition, in the Large Room at tbe Lion Inn. in this town.— It is a collection of very peculiar and striking interest; the s| iectator passes through the Gallery as if he were becoming acquainted with the great and distinguished of generation after generation— us if liis life embraced centuries, and the famili sof mankind were in turn his familiar associates, Shewing fheir Various forms and faces, playing their parts upon the world's Wide stage, and finally drop- irig into oblivion as other races usurped their room. Here he sees the Planfagenets and Tudors, the heroes and statesmen, the poets anil the philosophers of Great Britain, in their habits as they lived ; and either as food for grave reflection or for the exercise of the imagination, the Exhibition is one altogether of so original and impressive an order, that we are sure it must excite a strong sensation in every beholder who thinks as he ought of tbe past glories of his country. We have, however, far higher authority than our own to adduce, on this subject, and we refer to the letter in wli'ch Sir Walter Scott has expressed his feelings upon witnessing the Exhibition, printed in the catalogue, from which we have room but for a single extract:—" It is impossible for me to conceive a work which ought to be more interesting to the present age than that which exhibits before our eyes our * fathers as they lived.' It is a work, which in regard to Eng- land, might deserve the noble motto rendered with such dignity by Dryden — " From lienC'c the line of Alban fathers come, And the long glories of majestic Rome." It is necessary to say that the object of opening this collection of portraits for public inspection, is lo dis- play in one collected view the whole series of illus- trations proposed to be executed in a work consisting of the Portraits of the most celebrated and illustrious Personages of British History, with Memoirs of their Lives and Actions, by Edmund Lodge, Esq at such a moderate price as may bring it within the reach of every individual of taste and judgment The work was originally published in a succession of folio parts, amounting collectively id a Sum of two hundred guineas, an expense so great as to limit it to the libraries of the most wealthy. It is now intended to be published in monthly ntmVbers at seven shillings and sixpence each, to render it accessible to every class of purchasers, as we observe from the pro- spectus.— See A dvertisement. We have reason to believe that a man of the name of Williams, lately discharged froth the service of a gentleman in the neighbourhood of this town, has been obtaining money by various false pretences from different individuals; and as we sife informed that the Police are now in search of the offender, we would caution our readers against his impositions. We insert the following paragraph, by way of caution, as we have been informed the party alluded to has made his appearance in this neighbourhood :— IMPOSTOR.— On Wednesday laSt, an Irishman, named Robert Hudson, aged about 35, son of the late Captain Hudson, of the 96th Regiment of Foot; was appre- hended in Bristol, under circumstances of gross imposi- tion. He stated that he had arrived at Bristol, from Cork, absolutely pennyless, but some suspicions being entertained, he was searched, when 2/ sovereigns, besides silver, were found upon him! He was com- mitted to the treadmill for three months; and the expenses of his conveyance thither, his maintenance for that period, together with an allowance of ten shillings a week for his wife, will be deducted out of tl'. e unlawful profitsof his imposture.— Orford Journal, May 28. Commuted to our County Gaol, Francis Yates, charged with stealing Us. 6d. the property of Sarah Fewtrell, from the dwelling house of Thomas Nock, at Bridgnorth. William Birmingham has been committed to our gaol, for three months, for selling unstamped almanacks at Drayton.— He is an old offender. A poacher named Jordan, now a prisoner in onr County Gaol, attempted to break out of prison in the night of the 21st inst. but he failed in his endeavours to scale the outer wall, and received a fall, tbe effects of which he will feel for some time lo come. The sum of £- 2. 9s. and a Saving Banks Boot, showing an account standing in his name to the amount of £ 9. 19s. were found on the person of a vagrant impostor, named John Nelson, committed to our County Gaol, for begging at Whitchurch, and pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Mr. John Paine, of Llandinam, Montgomeryshiie. — His death was awfully sudden.— He had taken his place in the coach at Welsh Pool, intending to proceed to Liverpool; before he had travelled two miles, he was observed to appear faint and ill, and at Llanymynech was taken out a corpse.

WWMUM WMMMM AT LLANFYLLIN. The Cholera still continues to be confined to SHn derland, and the reports arc not more unfavourable as to lU progress than during the preceding week. The latest accounts of the health of the Bishop of Winchester describe the Right Rev. Prelate so much recovered as to be considered out of danger. INFIRMARY.— Visiting Clergyman this week, the Rev. T. B. Lutener:— House Visitors, Rev. James Craig and Mr. Lewin — Physician and Surgeon for the week commencing on Saturday next, Dr Du Gard and Mr. Humphreys.

Od. Mr. Payne, of Balliol College, son of Sir Peter Payne, Bart. M. P. for Bedfordshire, is one of the five gentlemen in the first class in the Oxford Ex- aminations this term.— Mr. Payne was a pupil of Archdeacon Butler, at the Royal Free Grammar School in this tow n. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex changed horses at the Lion Inn, in this town, on Sunday last, on his route from Kinmel Park, Ihe seat of Lord Dinorben. CRANAGE, Attorney, versus PRICE.— This was an action for slanderous words uttered by the defendant, charging the plaintiff with not being licensed as an attorney.— It was tried in the Court of Exchequer on Monday last, aud the plaintiff obtained a verdict with 20s. damages. CHOLERA MORBUS.— The precautions made public by order of the Mayor of this town, are inserted in our 4th page.— The Parishioners of St. Mary, in this town, have given notice that they will indict or other- wise cause to be removed all nuisances found in that parish. At a meeting of the Magistrates and Medical Faculty, held at the Guildhall, in this town, yesterday, it was Unanimously agreed, that a Board of Health should be established for the Town and Liberties of Shrewsbury, and that the Gentlemen selected by the Vestries of each Parish should hold their first meeting To- morrow, for the purpose of carrying this object into full operation and effect. VVe beg to refer again to that article in our last, in which, on the authority of the Mayor of Bristol's statement, the perfect exculpation of Sir Charles Wetherell was established, with respect to the alleged indiscretion of his visit fo Bristol. It will be remembered, we presume, thai tbe Mayor distinctly states, that the deputation from the magistrates of Bristol, accompanied by Sir Charles, had a conference wiih Lord Melbourne, on the subject of the Recorder's visit, and that the noble Secretary advised that Sir Charles should proceed, as usual, to hold the gaol delivery. This statement of the Mayor of Bristol is addressed to Lord Melbourne, and whatever doubts may be thrown npon other parts of the narrative, it is obvious the credibility of this part of the statement cannot be impeached. The Mayor would never pre- sume to state as a fact, in a paper addressed fo Lord Melbourne, that which Lord Melbourne could himself contradict. It is plain, in a word, lhat this document completely exonerates Sir Charles WC- there!!, and lays tbe responsibility upon the government alone. Re- ferring, then, to our remarks on this subject in our last, we now express our surprise at the base conduct of the reform press, which, though it united in one universal howl of execration directed to Sir Charles Wetherell, when the unfortunate occurrences took place with which his name was connected', have not had the honesty to utfer one word of regret for the injustice of that clamour,— nor one word of correction of the error, wilful or mistaken, which Ihey committed to Sir Charles's prejudice.— A sound reason niay, we think, be derived from this circumstance, for receiving with caution the opinions of the reform press, on all ( hose great questions on which tliey are wont to de- liver themselves with so much confidence. Honesty and candour are so near akin to sense and sagacity, that where we find the former wanting in the degree in which they are seen to be in this instance, we may verv reasonably withhold our confidence from the latter. NATIONAL POLITICAL UNION.— The TJmti of Commons declared a Non- entity.— At a meeting of Ihe Council of this Union, held on Thur- day evening at the Crown and Anchor, the Kev. W. J. Fox, in the chair, a series of resolutions having been read, Mr. E. Perry seconded the first of them, which had reference to Ihe House of Commons having declared itself not to be the representatives ofthe people by the passing of the Bill, and w hich diclared, that Political Unions were essentially necessary, as organs for the voice of the nation.— Mr. Churchill supported the resolution, because the eyes of the public were upon them, and because it was time for the Council to take an open and decided p irt. Il was time for them to say that they had uo confidence in Ministers, but in themselves alone. For his own part, he believed that the present Ministry would do all the harm they could, and just as much good as they could not help doing. As to what the [ louse of Commons had declared, it. was a body that had told so many lies, that it required the corroboration of some respectable persons to persuade the people to believe any thing that the House might promulgate—( A laugh ) Major Revell said, that Ihe resolution was borne out by the preamble of the Reform Bill— The Chairman said, it was not owing lo the Reform Bill, or its rejection, that the Unions were necessary ; they were necessary before the Re- form Bill had been agitated, and they would le necessary after it shnuld be passed. BRISTOL, NOV. 25.— The Commitlee of Inquiry appointed at ( lie late meeting have commenced re reiving evidence to- day, and itis understood that some of au important nature has already been received, but as no reporteis from the press are allowed to be pre- sent nothing further is known.— The Court of Inquiry upon Colonel Bre. eton finished yesterday, but as it was also a close one in the strictest sense of tlie word, nothing whatever is known i f the proceedings. Se- veral of he members of the Court have already left fur London, and no doubt the result of the investiga- tion will be speedily laid before the Commander- in- Ch'ef. Until the result of Lord H H's examination of the minutes submitted to him be known, we must of course be ignorant of the issue to which the inquiry will lead. INSOLVENT COtJRT, SHREWSBURY. A Court for fhe Relief of Insolvent Debtors was held on Saturday last, when llichard Onians, late of Row- ton, whose case stood over from the preceding Court, was ordered to be discharged, conditionally, that Mr. Smith, one of his creditors, give up a mort- gage, which the Commissioner considered to stand in the nature of an undue preference.— JoSeph Atkins, late of Hadley, tailor and shopkeeper, was ordered to be discharged forthwith.— There was 11* 0 other cause before the' Court. FOR THE SALOPIAN JOURNAL. Many of our readers, doubtless, remember the hie Duke of Norfolk's celebrated political toast, " His Majesty— the People," given at a public dinner during tbe French Revolution.—" His Majesty" has recently experienced a severe family affliction, alluded to in the following loyal and pathetic ^ DUreos of ( SonSoIciue. To His Majesty the People. We your Majesty's most devoted servants, the editors and fabricators of your Majesty's official gazette, commonly designated The Times, beg to express our deep and heartfelt sorrow and condolence on tiie recent audacious attack made against the lives of your Ma- jes y's beloved offspring— the Political Unions. Having been the strenuous advocates of your Ma- es'y's unlimited sway in these realms, having without ^ crnp'e or reserve sacrificed in support of your Ma- jesty's power and pretensions all that is held most valuable in the character of public men— truth, patriot- ism, avid public virtue— all, in short, save money and the love of mischief, we confess that we hailed with the utmost exultation and joy of heart the birth and growth of those most hopeful scions of democracy, your Majesty's lively issue, whose tender years have given such fair promise of future emi ence in all those qualities which would have rendered them worthy successors to the sovereignty of these realms, whenever it might have pleased them to relieve the established authorities of trie burthens of government. We have, therefore, witnessed with extreme regret the violent assault made upon theni by a band of rebel- lious individuals, who, until the perpetration of this act of insubordination to your Majesty's controul, were generally believed to be your humble though unwitting slaves, soothed by yonr Majesty's " most sweet voice" into a state of ignorant lethargy.- Whilst condemning generally the outrage alluded to, we cannot refrain from expressing our more especial disgust at the unnatural conduct of two of the assassins ( Lords Althorp and John Russell), who, it will be remembered, were the playfellows and flatterers, in his infancy, of your Majesty's eldest son, Prince Birming- ham, whom they have now attempted to deprive of existence. We take this occasion of expressing our deep regret at the failure of your Majesty's very signal effort to establish your beneficial reign in the city of Bristol— an attempt which, we are persuaded, would have been attended with much more sanguinary and satisfactory results, if your Majesty had not unfortunately got drunk and taken rather prematurely to pilfering— the exercise of which, yonr Majesty's ancient, invariable, and undoubted prerogatives, would more prudently have been postponed until the further triumpti of your arms. But whilst we offer our condolence on the untoward events to which we have alluded, we have the happi- ress to address your Majesty in terms of warm congratulation oh the prosperous state of your Ma- jesty's affairs in your ancient kingdom of France; and notwithstanding ilie failure of allegiance which yonr Majesty has experienced in one- solitary instance from the men who hold the temporary administration of public affairs in this kingdom, we are persuaded that they will yet be found subservient to your designs, and that having been induced to adopt in this country man- ners, and language, and sentiments which have else- where led to your Majesty's emancipation from all controul whether of law, religion, or morality, we can- not but look to their furtherance of a similar happy result in this Country, especially if they shall again shut their eyes and go to sleep— an event which is c. nfidently anticipated, inasmuch as it is understood that when in that state they have very entertaining dreams of pensions, places, permanent popularity, and systems of finance, with one comical specimen whereof they have already afforded a few days' amusement to the public. In regard to ' he venerable leader of the- e individuals, we would humbly beg to recommend him to your Majesty's most gracious favour, in consideration of his renowned attempt to bully the Bishops on yonr Ma- jesty's favourite measure, and for the perspicuous manner in which he pointed out to the populace of Bristol and elsewhere the mode in which they might carry their own designs against the law of the land and the good sense of enlightened men. As a reward for these statesmanlike services, since your Majesty is ever graciously inclined to get all you can and give nothing away, and since all his lordship's family are already abundantly provided for by places and preferments ( for which he declares they are as fit as other people), we would suggest that his lordship's earldom should be the last peerage abolished by your Majesty, and that he should be allowed to " stand by his order" until the final subversion of all order whatever. We witness with great satisfaction the expression of yourMajesty's displeasure against the aforesaid Bishops for having dared to follow the dictates of tlieir con- sciences when so many others were swayed by interest, ambition, or the hum of your Majesty's applause; anc we heartily concur in your gracious resolution to abolish Religion altogether, seeing that it forms a serious bar to the free exercise of your Majesty's domi- nion, and that it evidently must be useless, as a very great Lord Chancellor may establish a very great University without it. May we be permitted to add, that we do not wholly approve of the conduct of Henry Hunt, Daniel O'Con- nell, Radical, and other of your Majesty's poor relations and privy counsellors, in having prematurely divulged your Majesty's secret councils, and made known those ultimate designs towards which the great Bill was to be but the first teeble step. In conclusion, we humbly beseech your Majesty to buy vast numbers of our newspapers, in return for which we faithfully promise to raise another panic and cloud of dust in your Majesty's name at the next General Election, and to treat with the utmost scurrility all who venture to doubt the supreme and absolute nature of your Majesty's sovereignty, or to hint at the obsolete vocabulary in which you are designated by the unhandsome names of Mob, I? abble, and Desperado.

EE— The birth- day of this gallant nobleman was celebrated on Thursday week at Nantwich and Wrenbury, with the customary festivities. At the latter place a dinner was prepared by the landlord of the Hawk and Buckle, at which a verv respectable and numerouscom|> any were present. Several large transparencies shone resplendent amidst which wasa paintingof his lordship's arms, and another of the masonic orders. Upon the transparencies were a variety of inscriptions ; and among them the follow- ing " Salamanca and Bhurtpore. Honour is llie reward of tbe brave."— The usual loyal and patriotic t msts were observed. The Right Hon. Viscount Combermerc, with 3 times 3. Then followed the other members of his lordship's family,— Earl Kilmorey— Sir H. Mainwaring, and the Cheshire Fox Hounds. The 22d instant being the day on which the Right Hon. Charles Walkin Williams VVvnn had engaged to dine with his constituents and friends at Llanfyllin, the town at an early liofrr was one scene of prepara- tion for the intended visit, and of joy at the anticipa- tion of meeting the worthy Member — The bells rung merrily during the course of the day, and every face shewed that the preparations were for the reception of no unwelcome guest. Two sheep were roasted at a large bonfire before the Town Hall, and the boys of the Charily Schools of Llanfyllin and Llanfihangel ( sixty in number) were regaled with mutton, plum- pluddi'ng, and a moderate supply of good ale. The Right Hon. Gentleman and Sir Watkin Williams Wynn ( who accompanied him) were met at a consi- derable distance from the town by the inhabitants, and the horses being taken from their carriage, were drawn by the populace into the town amidst loud cheers. The company assembled upon the occasion were upwards of 250. Their respectability ( being most of them freeholders) is the most unequivocal proof that can be given of the high estimation in which Mr. Wynn is held by his constituents in that neighbourhood. It was much to be regretted lhat Ihe room at the Town Hall was not sufficiently large to admit the number of persons who intended to dine, and lhat many were under the necessity of dining al Ihe Wynnstay Arms Inn, separated from the rest of the company. The chair at the Town Hall was taken by William Humffrevs, Esq. of Llwyn; upon his right sat Sir Walkin Williams Wynn, and upon his left Mr. Charles Wynn; Edward Foulkes, Esq. Maurice B. bby, Esq. ( the Town Clerk), T homas Bihby, Esq. Charles Jones, Esq. Edward l'ugh, Esq. Robert Jones, Esq. and Humphrey Lloyd Williams, Esq. officiating as Vice- Presidents. John Thomas, Esq. of Garlhgelynyufawr, presided at the table at tbe Wynnstay Arms, and the Rev. John Jones, rector of Llangynog, was the Vice- President. The dinner, which was served from ihe Wynnstay Arms, from the manner in which it was laid out, and the profuseness and delicacy of the dishes, reflects infinite credit both upon Mr. and Mrs. Jones. The wines and ale were also most excellent. After the cloth was removed, the worthy chairman gave " His Majesty King William the Fourth — God bless him," with 3 times 3. Song, " God save the King," by Mr. Thomas Bihby: in the chorus the company unanimously joined. Afterwards was pro- posed " The Queen," which was also drunk with 3 times 3. Song, " Scots wha ha'," by Mr. Joliu Hughes and Mr. Thomas Bibby. After the other usual toasts were drunk, the Chairman proposed the health of" The Right Hon. Charles Watkin Williams Wynn, the company's distinguished Guest." At the an- nouncement of this toast every person in the room appeared enraplured, and it was drunk with 3 times 3, and tremendous cheering. After the cheers had subsided, Mr. Wynn rose and said, that among the many marks of kindness that had been shewn him by his constituents in all parts ofthe county, there were none which he felt more sensibly, and which were more gratifying to him, than those marks of applause with which his health had been proposed, and the decided signs of approba- tion which had followed. There were circumstances connected with that meeting which rendered those marks doubly gratifying. He was then standing in the Hundred of Llanfyllin, which had so greatly dis- tinguished itself by its zeal in his favour at the late contest. ( loud and repeated cheers ) He was then in a Hundred, the freeholders of which had been unanimous in his favour. He repeated unanimous in his favour ( continued cheers J ; for out of all the freeholders of that Hundred three only were found who gave their voles against him; and those three he knew had acted unwillingly, and were forced to comply with circumstances over which they had no controul ( loud cheers J: a fact unequalled in the history of contested elections ( chcersj. He was then among those whose fathers had for ages stood in the closest connexion with his forefathers; and he was proud to see, by tlieir kindness upon that and other occasions, that that connexion was yet undissolved and unimpaired. ( Cheers. J They bad conferred, by their exertions in his behalf, a honour which be Was justly proud of : they had chosen him for nearly thirty- three years their Representative in Parliament. They had done more; they had deputed him as their Representative free and unshackled,— a practice much preferable to the more modern plan of sending mem- bers to parliament to be guided wholly by the opinions of their constituents signified at their Poli- tical Unions,— a practice more likely to furnish the House of Commons wiih men of talent, upright- ness, and integrity,— and a practice more in unison with the genuine principles of our Constitution. ( Loud cheers. J There was one point which he would take the liberty of mentioning to the company. He alluded to a charge made against him of having attempted, at Pool, to confound the advocates of Reform with Despard, Watson, and Thistlewood What he then said did by no means justify that con struction. It was caution lhat he then gave to the advocates of Reform against placing any reliance npon those who only used tbe cry of Reform to answer their own ends; and who are ever ready, when any excitement is raised on the public mind, to pervert il to the worst purposes. ( Cheers. J His object was ( 0 guard the conscientious advocates of Reform against those whose cry is Reform, hut whose real objects are plunder and bloodshed. The recent serious disturbances at Derby, Bath, Nottingham, Bristol, and other places, had abundantly convinced him that Ihe opinions he gave utterance to were not unfounded. Knowing the quarter from whence the charge to which he had just alluded had proceeded, he would not have condescended to have noticed it, had it not been for a strong wish that he entertained that no candid man among his constituents should mislake what he had said or the views he had taken. ( Loud cheers J Upon the great question of Reforni he had the misfortune to differ from many whose friendship he most valued ; but he always gave them the same credit as he wished to take himself, that Ihe opinions they had formed were honest and unbiassed, I pon lhat question he believed there were a greater rariety of opinions than there were upon almost any other question. So great was the variety, that, though he had conversed with many on the subject, he had never met with two persons whose views of Reform exactly corresponded. He had, during his long career in public life, learnt by experience to tolerate the opinions of others; and the more he thought upon the subject the more he was convinced that, in this free country, toleration was as admirable in politics as in religion. Under that impression, lie was certain that those who differed with him in this county d ffered with him honestly; and he would, therefore, earnestly wish that all feelings of irritation the late contest might have given rise to may be allayed, | and that he might be allowed to propose what be had proposed on another occasion, and what the company, if their sentiments were in accordance with his, would cordially concur in ; namely, " Pro- sperity, Peace, and Harmony to the County of Mont- gomery." The toast was drunk with 3 times 3, and the most enthusiastic cheering.— Song, " John Bull," by Mr. Jo- eph Jones. The Chairman then proposed the health of " Sir Watkin Williams Wynn," which was drunk wiih 3 times 3.— Sir Watkin briefly returned thanks, and said that he begged to express his most sincere acknowledgments for their exertions in bis brother's behalf. He was confident that his brother, whether in or out of office, had always at heart the welfare of the county of Montgomery. He proposed " the Town and Trade of l. lanfyllin;" 3 times 3. Mr. Robert Jones, jun. as one connected with the town and trade of Llanfyllin, returned thanks, and proposed " The Heir of Wynnstay, and that, when grown up to manhood, he might always pursue that line of conduct for which the House of Wynnstay had been so long distinguished, and which had made them so much beloved in the Principality ;" 3 times 3. Sir Watkin returned thanks, saying that he was always anxious to instil into his son's mind a love for the Principality, and with that view he had endea- voured to have him taught in his native language ; and although that part of his education had been rather neglected, yet it had not been so much so, but that he ( Sir W.) might flatter himself that his son would be able, in that language, to hold a conversa- tion with his friends and tenants. In return for the kindness of the Company, he drank their healths in a cup of cwrw da— the national beverage. The Chairman proposed the health of " The Lord Lieutenant of the County of Montgomery ;" 3 times 3. Mr. Wynn proposed the health of " The worthy Chairman," with many thanks to him for the proofs of private friendship which he had shewn him. The able manner in w hich the chair bad been filled had greatly contributed lo the pleasantness of the meeting ( cheersJ; and he ( Mr. Wynn), by the cheers he heard, was proud to find, that in a quarter where the worthy chairman was best known he was most valued. ( Great cheering.) The health was drunk with 3 times 3. Mr. Humffreys, in returning thanks, said, that if any exertions on his part had at all contributed to make their meeting happy and convivial, lie was amply repaid, and he felt enlivened by the consider- ation that whatever he had done in Mr. Wynn's behalf was bestowed upon a good cause. ( Cheers.) He proposed the health of" Lady Harriet Wynn and the Family of Wynnstay ;" 3 times 3. Sir Watkin returned thanks, and remarked lhat he had come to the county of Montgomery for a bride, and had never repented having done so. He pro- posed " The fair Ladies of the Countv of Montgo- mery ;" 3 times 3. The Chairman proposed the health of " John Bon- nor, Esq.;" 3 times 3. Mr. Bonnor returned thanks, and said that he was proud to be one of the numerous and respectable company assembled to celcbrate the twelfth return of Mr, Wynn to Parliament; and concluded by propos- ing the health of " Mrs. Williams Wynn and the Family of I . langedwin ; with as many cheers as the party were disposed to give.'* ( Tremendous cheer- ingJ . Mr. Wynn, in returning thanks, said, that he never felt, kindness so deeply as when it was not confined to himself, but extended to those who were dear to him. Mrs. Wynn, during her long residence at Llangcdwin, had every reason to be grateful for the kindness ami attention of her neighbours. As to the rest of his family, he had always endeavoured to bring theni up in the same attachment to the county of Montgomery as he had always felt himself. He then remarked, that he had only one fault to find with their worthy Chairman ( Mr. Humffreys), which was, that he did not put it in his ( Mr. W.' s) pnwer to propose " Mrs. Humffreys and the Young Family at Llwyn;" he trusted, however, Mr. H. would soon make such amends as would leave no room for complaint. In the absence of such a toast, he would with great pleasure propose the health of" Mrs Humffreys, the Misses Humffreys, and the rest of the Llwyn Family ;'* 3 times 3. The Chairman returned thanks. Sir Walkin proposed the health of " Edward Foulkes, Esq. and the other Vice- Presidents of the day." Mr. Foulkes, in behalf of himself and the olher Vice- Presidents, returned thanks, and expressed him- self proud of the honour that bad been conferred upon them, especially since their health was proposed by the worthy Baronet that he saw opposite him. He had, with surprize, seen in some of the papers, those who attended the dinner lately given to their worthy Representative at Pool called de)> endents on Lord Clive and Sir Watkin. Had the person who used those epithets been really present at Pool, or were he present at Llanfyllin, lie would find that such an assertion was entirely false. The company there and at Pool were no dependents on Lord Clive, Sir Watkin, nor Mr. Wynn. They came to Pool, as the company had assembled there, to shew that they were satisfied that the suffrages which were given for Ihe return of Mr. Wynn had not been abused ; that his conduct in the late Session of Parliament— a Session of almost unparalleled labour— had been such as had been fully calculated up n—( great cheering) — had been such as a lung and faithful service in the House of Commons taught his constituents to cxpect. He ( Mr, F.) had seen a person lately in Llanfyllin, who had come for names to be inrolled in a Political Union. He ventured to advance, as the sentiments of all present, that they stood in no need of such an Union here. ( Cheers ) They, had a Representative to whom, from his universally acknowledged talents, and his profound knowledge of the constitution of his country, the subjects submitted to the notice of Political Unions may with greater safety be commit- ted. He ( Mr. F.) was ofopinion'tliat Political Unions, unless timely put down, would prove the greatest curse that ever bel'el this country. ( Loud and re- peated cheers, in which Mr. Wynn warmly joined.) What are chiefly conducive to the prosperity of a neighbourhood like this, arc honest Representatives and good Landlords. ( Great applause.) Mr. Foulkes concluded by proposing the health of " The High Steward of the Borough of Llanfyllin, Panton Corbett, Esq.;" 3 times 3. Sir Watkin then proposed the health of « The Montgomeryshire Yeomanry Cavalry ;" 3 times 3 Mr. Wynn, as Colonel, returned thanks, anil in tbe most, flattering manner signified his approbation of the efficiency and appearance of the Montgomeryshire Cavalry w hen he last had the honour of taking their command. He then proposed the health of the com- pany present, and requesting such of the Cavalry as were at table to stand up, be called upon them to be as ready in meeting their friends, as he had every reason to expect they would be ( if called upon) to act. against their foes. ( Cheers.) After the night had been far advanced, the distin- guished guests took their leave; but many other toasts were drunk, and the festivity of the meeting was much prolonged, before the whole of the com- pany dispersed. VVe ought to add, that four barrels of ale were given fo the populace to regale themselves in the evening; and that a beautiful balloon, prepared hy Mr. 11.

[ ADVERTISF. MF. NT.] REFORM VERSES LANDED PROPERTY.— We are happy to find the great question of Parliamentary Reform does not so cntiiely stagnate the transfer of Estates of mag- nitude ( when really desirable) as its avowed enemies and half- hearted friends would have lis believe, since we understand, upon undoubted authority, that the great " MOWDDWY ESTATE," the Ancestorial Territory of JOHN MYTTON, Esq. of Halston Park, Salop, wiih its Mines, Manors, & c extending over a district of upwards of 32,000 Acres, in the county of Merioneth, and which was recently withheld at the public hammer by Mr. Ct ARIDGF., of May Fair, London, has, within these few days, been sold by Private Treaty to John Bird, Esq. of'Birniingham.

IRELAND.— Mr. O'Connell, the protege of his Majesty's Government, continues to speak out, malgre the sop recently thrown to him. The following avowal was made by the Agitator, on Saturday, and thc determination it contains may be said to be the fundamental and actuating principle of the new association t— " I postponed ( quoth he) reform until emancipation was obtained, in spite of many an insidious friend and many a hollow advocate. Do I now conceal that I look to ulterior measures t No, 1 do uot. I tell the Irish people through the press, and I proclaim it to Ihe country, that I am an agitator with ulterior views ; nay, I will even go further, and be explicit beyond the possibility of cavil— I now declare that I never will lie satisfied until I see a Parliament in College Green." ( Immense cheering.) We have our reasons for asking the following question — Has not one of his Majesty's Ministers subscribed £ 50 towards the funds ofthe Birmingham Political Union?— The " Unknown Subscriber" who sent this sum a week or two ago, has not, we have reasonto believe, kept hisown secret .- Bristol Journal.

The supply of every description of grain during the last week was immense, but the quantity fresh up this morning is moderate. The arrivals of flour are about 14,000 sacks. Wheat of the finest quality is full2s per quarter cheaper than on this day week, and the inferior parcels are entirely unsaleable. Fine barley may be quoted at a decline of 2s.; and inferior parcels sell at ,3s. to 5s. reduction. A great quantity has been soldat 32s. which has been previously offered at 38s. The top price of malting barley is - lis. The oat trade is also 011 the decline, and may be quoted at Is. lower than on this day week. A very large supply has been received from Ireland.

The sale of Flour, as well here as in all the surrounding markets, has been equally heavy.

Od Tile quantity of Butter which continues to come into the market seems to give the lie to the assertions of the Irish dealers, that the stock will be insufficient for the consumption, and this increased importation, added to thc fineness of the weather'" and the dullness of the country markets, has caused a decline this week of 2s. to 3s. per cwt. Under thc present circumstances, a further decline is anticipated for a time, but we by no means swerve from the opinion we last week expressed, that even should Butter continue to sink in price for a few weeks, it must inevitably recover itsel!, and we still think, that after Christmas ( we may almost say. with confidence, before that t me) every description of Butter will be taken at a much higher quolation than any wc have'given for the last few weeks.

The following Address to his Majesty, against fhef Ministerial Reform measure, is now in course of signa- ture in the county of Hereford : — " We, your Majesty's loyal and dutiful subjects— the undersigned Magistrates, Gentry, Clergy, Farmers, and others, Freeholders of Herefordshire' having been induced by motives of anxious consideration for the public peace, to absent ourselves from the iheeting. of our County, convened by the High Sheriff on the 5| 1( of November, at . a season of great excitement, enhanced by the deplorable events iu a neighbouring City; — most humbly beseech your Majesty to accept with indulgence the frank expression of . our decided dissent from the sentiments embodied in the Address and Reso- lutions adopted at tlr. it Meeting, atid purporting convey the nnanirnous'feeling of'lhe Freeholders of ,% s County of Hereford. " When the deliberative faculties of Parliament itself are invaded, it would have been vain indeed fol hope for fair and free disqussion, or satisfactorily id collect the opinions of the majority of. the elective liody — in an excited and promiscuous popular assembly. " Wc yield to none in firm and faithful attachment to your Majesty's sacred person and kingly office— nor ill devoted regard for the rights and liberties of tlig subject. *' We would willingly render every assistance in otir power to effect, in accordance with ypuf Majesty's gracious intimation to parliament, such changes in the representation as circumstances may require, and which, founded upon the acknowledged principles of the Con- stitution, lO'ght tend at once to uphold the just rights and prerogatives of the Crown, ami to gi\ e security to the liberties of the people:— but we earnestly deprecate the measure of reform so peremptorily dictated by your Majesty's Ministers', as one calculated not to improve, but to destroy— not to reform or to renovate, but to revolutionize the Constitution of our country, and to endanger, at. no distant day, the stability of your Majesty's Throne. " We have been taught to tonsider the British Con^ stitution not as a Royal Democracy but as a limited Monarchy; and to think that the grand object of every Constitution of Government which aspires on rational grounds to political perfection is not,' as the wild and visionary speculatists of lpodern times absurdly sup- pose, to carry the will of the majority. at all . events into effect, bnt to concentrate the wisdom, the knowledge, and the virtue of the community, to endow tliera with influence, and to arm them with power. " With these impressions, we are unable to" find affy ground of confidence in the wisdom or prudence of your Majesty's Minissers, who appear to us to have wantonly tampered with the tranquil ity of the country, and to have created a power which they will be unable to curb in its course, or to restrain in its licentiousness. " We lament to trace the atrocious outrages, which have moved your Majesty's just indignation, to. rasli and reckless appeals to the passions ot the people— to the recognition and support of illegal associations— to the tolerance or encouragement of a revolutionary press— and above all to the- unconstitutional use of your Majesty's name. " That sacred name— a just tower of Strength in 3 good cause, has been invoked to promote the most unholy;— The King's name has been invoked to snbveit established Government— has been polluted in the mouths of the lawlfss multitude^ who nave insulted his Roya\ Commission, and trampled under foot all the restraints of law and order. " If is with grief and indignation that we also trace! the unjust and ferocious outcry against the venerable Heads of the Protestant Church, to the invidious and menacing appeal made to the Prelacy by some of your Majesty's principal servants, in Parliament— in wnosc predictions of popular vengeance we find no' slight incentive' to its exercise. " Participating as we do in the sentiments of the Majority of the Lords Temporal and Spiritual who have arrested the progress of Revolution, we are aware we shall of course incur that imputation of faction, with which one of your Majesty's Ministers has not hesitated to stigmatise all who conscientiously disap- prove of their measures: and we are therefore the more solicitous to vindicate our loyalty and patriotism, whilst we thus desire to proclaim our dissent from the address which has been voted to your Majesty in the name of the County of Hereford."

The humble and dutiful Address nnd Petition of the Nobility, Gentry, Clergy, and Freeholders of ihe County of Worcester, whose names are under- written,— Shrweth, That we beg to approach your Majesty with senti- ments of the most profound respect aiid attachment to your sacred Person aud Government, and with a grate- ful remembrance of the many blessings which the People of this Empire have hitherto enjoyed, under the benign and constitutional rule of the aii'gusf House of Brunswick, We deem it our duty, at this awful crisis, most humbly to express to your Majesty our approbation of the firm and conscientious conduct of the House of Peers, which, undeterred by violence and threats, refused its consent to the Bill recently brought forward by your Majesty's Ministers, for nn entire change in the Representation of the' People 1: 1 Parliament. We can- not but concur in the statesmanlike and constitutional views upon which their decision was founded; and we deeply lament the total absence, in the measure pro- posed, of the prudence and moderation that might have secured for it a general support, and thus have averted those scenes of lawless devastation which have resulted from the disappointment of hopes unduly and incau- tiously raised amongst certain c'asses of your Majesty's subjects. We beg, Sire, nevertheless, to assure your Majesty, that we are not insensible to the altered circumstances of the times, or to the reasonable demands of our1 fellow- subjects, for a safe and temperate revision of the Representative System. But, perceiving as we do, by the language openly held in various parts of you - Ma jesty's dominions, that the specious word " Reform ' is made a clcak for dissemination of revolutionary doctrines,— that the iDependence of the' hertdjtary branch of the Legislature is threatened, and the Pro- testant Hierarchy denounced without disguise,— We do most humbly and most earnestly implore your Majesty to withhold your royal sanction from any mea tire hereafter to be submitted fo Parliament, which i « not essentially founded upon the ancient principles and practice of tlie Constitution, and calculated to insure, i istead oe endangering, tbe stability of Our institutions in Church and Sate. In conclusion, we entreat your Majesty, that, pend- ing the discussions which must precede the settle- ment of this great question, the laws for the mainte- nance of your Majesty's Crown aud Dignity, and for the security of the lives and property of your Majesty's subjects, may be proinplly and impartially adminis- tered by the recognized and responsible anthorities of the realm, ratiier than by associations, self- constitnl, d for party purposes, aiid whose existence we deira incompatible with the principles of good governmen'. And your Majesty's faithful artdloyal Petitioners, as in duty'bound, will ever pray, & c. The Worcester Herald of Saturday says—" We understand that the Address already bears ( he names of many of tbe gentry and most respectable freeholders of the county; and that it is intended petitions to both Houses, of a similar tendency, shall be submitted for signature."

The Gazette of Tuesday evening confained Ihe following Proclamation for putting down Political Unions :— 44 Whereas certain of our subjects in different parts of onr kingdom, have recently promulgated plans for voluntary associations, under the denomination of Political Unions, to be composed of separate bodies, with various divisions, sub- divisions, under leaders with a gradation of rank and authority, and distin- guished by certain badges, and snbject to the gene- ral controul and direction of a superior committee or council, for which associations no warrant has been given by us, or by any appointed by us, or on our behalf. And whereas according to the plans so pro- mulgated as aforesaid, a power appears to be assumed of acting independently of the civil magistrates, to whose requisition, calling upon them tu be enrolled as constables, the individuals comprising such associ- ations are bound in common with Ihe rest of our subjects lo yield obedience; and whereas such asso- ciations, so constituted and appointed under such separate direction and command, are obviously in compatible with the faithful performance of this duty, at variance with the acknowledged principles of the Constitution, and subversive of the authority with which we arc invested, as the supreme head of the state, for the protection of the public peace ; and whereas we are determined to maintaiu against all cncroaclmicnts on our Royal power those just pre- rogatives of the Crown which have been given to us for the preservatiorwof the peace and order of society, and for the general advantage and security of our loyal subjects. Wc have, therefore, thought it our duty, with and by the advice of our Privy Council, to issue tills our Royal Proclamation, declaring all such associations, so constituted and appointed as aforesaid, to be unconstitutional, and illegal, and earnestly warning and enjoining all our subjects to abstain from entering into such uuanthorized com binations, whereby they may draw upon themselves the penalties attending a violation of the laws, and the peace and security of our dominions may be endangered. " Given at our Court at St. James's, this 21st day of November, and in Ihe second year of our reign. " GOD SAVE THE KING." It is perhaps well for the Nation that Government has, at the eleventh hoar, taken measures to preserve the lives and property of his Majesty's subjects from the furious attacks of a desperate Ministerial Faction, and deemed it prudent to deprecate those violent measures to which, for months past, their newspapers have been exciting tfie populacc. But do Ministers and their colleagues in agitation think by so doing to make the people of England forget to whom tliey are so deeply indebted for past horrors and future riots nnd outrage; that Ihey can forget that " the British Cabinet, taking advantage of a popular excitement, fhe result of recent privations, and of the contagious troubles in neighbouring States, were the first to light the torch of discord at a flame which tliey themselves had fanned," and to cast it within the four walls of Parliament ; that they can forget the excesses of the late elections; the language employed by the Ministerial Press, high ami low, to terrify the Lords into acquiescence; their threats of confiscation and massacre; the late speech of Earl Grey in Par- liament, w hen lie bade the Bishops set their house in order; or the letter of Lord John Kussell toa tax denying Political Union, where he acknowledges, " with heartfelt gratitude, Ihe undeserved honour (!) • lone him by one hundred and fifty thousand of his countrymen;" and tells them further, that it impossible lliat the whisper nf a faction should prevail against the voice of a nation;" that Ihey can forget Ihe bloody attack upon Lord Londonderry beneath the windows of the Home Office; the insult passed upon the King in the person of his repre- sentative, Sir Charles Wetherell, in the discharge of the most august and important of his functions, by fhe Revolutionary movement at Bristol ? Unlike their assailants, the mob, the outraged insulted, calumniated, constitutional " faction," have always endeavoured to preserve the Nation from the scourge of a Revolution. They, therefore, w ill de- mand no unjust recompense for their innumerable wrongs, for the wounds inflicted upon the national welfare, hut they will investigate whether Ministers have excited, or only connived at, or only failed to prevent, the attempts of the mob to usurp the Government; whether they are the masters or the victims of this new power in the State, or whether they are in a certain degree both, having evoked spirit which they cannot lay? Meantime let Minis- ters, by vigorous and effectual measures, shield them selves from impending investigation, degradation, and legal punishment. Meantime do ye who have your country's interest at heart, who reverence the alta and Ihe throne, act in accordance to law without reliance upon Ihe Government. It has deceived its supporters thrice} think ye that it will stickle at deceiving you? Obey not only the King's present Proclamation, but also his prior one, and " come forward upon the first appearance or apprehension any such disturbances as aforesaid, and be actively aiding and assisting to all Sheriffs, Justices of the Peace, and other Magistrates, in enforcing the law against evil- doers, and in protecting your fellow- subjects in the enjoyment of their property, in the exercise of their rights, against all forcible, illegal, and unconstitutional interference, controul, or ag- grcssiou." PETITION FIIOM LIVERPOOL. PRECAUTIONS AGAINST CHOLERA. THE REJECTION OF THE BILL. ( From. Rlachwood's Magazine. J What haro the Peers done ? They have done their duty, and, we trust, saved their country. We had always the greatest hopes of the resist- ance which ill the last extremity the Peers of England would offer to the torrent of revolution, aud the firmest confidence in the effieucy of their exertions to rescue the nation from the dangers villi which it was well nigh overwhelmed. But vve were not prepared for, we never could have anticipated, the glorious stand which they have made against the Kefurin Bill. To have thrown out that Bill by a majority, which, but for the recent unprecedented creation, would have been SIXTV- TVVO ; to have been proof alike against Ibe seductions of Ministerial influence, tbe smiles of Ministerial favour, and tbe vengeance of democratic ambition ; to have despised equally the threats of a revolutionary press, the intimidation of ignorant multitudes, and the fierce, though fleet- ing, folly of public opinion, is indeed a triumph worthy of the Barous of England. Their ancestors, who declared seven hundred yeurs ago at Mertoun, Nolumvs leges Anglia mutufe, Ihe iron warriors who extorted from John at Runnyniedc the great charter of English freedom, did not confer so great a blessing on their country. The first contended only against Ihe usurpation of papal ambition ; the latter struggled against the tyranny of a weak and pusillanimous prince : but Ibe victory now gained lias beep achieved over tbe united forces of ig- norance and ability; over all thut democracy could offer that was savage, and all that talent could array that was formidable, I11 Gothic ages our steel- clad barons struggled only for infant freedom, and luid tbe foundations of a civilization yet to be ; the Peers of our day have been intrusted with the protection of aged happiness, and the keeping of a standard grown grey in renown. Well and nobly have Ihey discharged the trust; despising every unworthy menace, stedfastly adhering through every peril to the discharge of duty, they have achieved a triumph of immortal celebrity. Tbey have saved us from the worst of tyrannies : the despotism of a multitude of tyrants. The future ss host have withered before the blast of destruc- ion ; how many human beings, then buoyant with eallb aud exulting in ambition, been soon swept away ; how many wretched families writhed under the pangs of famine; how many souls been lost in the crimes consequent 011 unbearable misfortune ! Long before tbe democratic flood had readied Ihe palaces ofthe great, while the rich were still living in affluence on the accumulations of centuries, the poor, dependent on their daily labour, would have been involved in the extremity of suffering, and hundreds of tlioi. sauds perished as in Ihe Crusades, Ihe victims of political, as creat as religions fanati cism. The rich would ultimately have been de- stroyed; the higher ranks wonld have been swept away in the flood of misfortune, but they would have survived Ihe wretched crowd which swelled the torrent ; and tbe last breath of the deluded multitude, w hen sinking in the waves, would have been to curse the authors of a nation's ruin. Our next cause of thankfulness is for the pre- servation of the constitution of the country; of that constitution which has survived so many perils, and produced such unparalleled blessi under which our fathers have prospered, and tlit- y of tbe old lime before them ; which has been trai s- mitted, like the mantle of Elijah, from generation to generation, aud even now saved the nation, il is to be hoped, from the abyss of wretchedness, ll would have been a deplorable spectacle to have seen the British constitution perish from any cause; to have beheld tbe fabiie of Alfred, matured by the experience, and adapted to the wants of successive generations, fall even under external violence, tbe sword of Napoleon, or the armies of Russia : but how much more terrible, to have seen it perish nder the violence of its own subjects ; sink into the grave from the impious hands of its own children! It is painful to see a family in private life behave with ingratitude to the authors of their being; revolt against the hands which had lulled them in infancy ; discard the wisdom which had '• intruded their youth, and bring down Ihe grey hairs of ai> e with sorrow to the grave: But what shall we say to the nation which, in a transport of fury, could pull down the institutions under which they had attained unparalleled happiness; which had been weighed in the balance, and not found wanting ; which had spread the sway of an island in Ihe Atlantic as far as the arms of conquest could each, or the waters of the ocean extend ; which had given birth to Milton und Newton, to Scott and Shakspeare; on which were reflected the glories of Palestine, the lustre of Cressy, the triumph of Blenheim ; the country of Marlborough and Wel- lington, of Blake and Nelson ; the nation which had ever been first in the career of usefulness, and last in the desertion of duty? All these glories, this long line of greatness, these countless millions of helpless beings, stood on the verge of desti ne tion ; with their own hands they had pushed out upon the sea of revolution, and the monsters of the deep were raging for their prey ! They have been saved after they had abandoned the helm, and re- signed themselves to the tempest, by the firm and intrepid hands which seized it. Our last cause of thankfulness is for the human racc— for the countless myriads who looked to the shores of Britain for the last struggle between order and anarchy ; and Ihc triumph achieved for true freedom, by the first and greatest defeat of democratic oppression. Not merely as natives of England, but as citizens of the world, we rejoice in the triumph— the victory of experience over inno- vation— of balanced power over oppressive tyranny of the reign of Peace over the era of Blood. It is a proud thing for England, that, in this great crisis, she has not been wanting to her duty ; that she has maintained her high place in the van of civilisation, and kept the lead alike in the ranks of Freedom, and Ihe array of Wisdom. Centuries before the name of Liberty was known iu the neighbouring states ; while the nations around her were sunk in barbarism, or crouching under op- pression, she crccted the firm and fair fabric of public freedom ; and now, when they are fawning before the career of Revolution, and placing their necks beneath the many- headed monster of de- mocratic power, she boldly stands out, erect and alone, to combat the tyrant when he is strongest, to grapple with the Hydra iu his prime, If any thing could add to the gratitude which wc feel for these great achievements, it would be the satisfaction which must arise from the manner in which the great question has been treated in the House of Lords. The days are over wheu the people can be deluded by the old calumny of the Peers being behind the age— a set of incurables— a racc of imbeciles, fit ouly to be discarded with dis- grace. This debate has displayed their character ill its true colours ; it must silence the breath of vituperation, and open the eyes of even political blindness. The two great parties which divide the State have been brought into presence, each has sent forth its combatants into the field; and what a stupendous difference between them! How im- measurablysuperior the debates of the Lords have been to those of Hie Commons ! How diguified the language— how statesmanlike tbe wisdom— how great the courage of the former when compared with the declamation and vehemence of a majority in the latter body ! The Peerage has produced the speeches of Wellington, Harrowby, Dudley, Caer- narvon, Wharncliffe, Wynford, Lyndhurst, and Eldon; and what has the democratic party brought forward in the Lower House to counterbalance it ? O'Connell, Hobhouse, Hunt, and Hume. Which of these great bodies will stand most prominent in the eyes of posterity ? On the conduct of which will the historian dwell with enthusiasm; the words of which will flew down the current of lime, Ihe ad- miration and boast of unborn ages? Much as we respected, highly as we felt the importance of the British aristocracy, their ability and energy has exceeded any thing that could have beeu antici pated'. Not one of the able supporters of reform could adduce a single argument in favour of Ihe hill, which was the only question before the House. Lord Brougham virtually abandoned the .£ 10 clause, by admitting that io committee he would not op- pose its alteration to a standard varying according to the size of the town } and he added, lhat it was TO THE KING S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. Sire — We, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the undersigned, gentry, clergy, bankers, merchants, and other inhabitants of Ihe town and 11 ighbourhood of Liverpool, humbly beg leave to approach your Majesty, at a moment when popular commotion and contempt of the laws have risen to such a height as to place the dearest interests of our country in a state of peril, with our assurances of unshaken attachment to your Majesty's person and dignity, and of our firm determination to support your Majesty in the just exercise of those principles which placed your Majesty's family upon the throne of these realms. In the present momentous crisis, when conflicting opinions are carried to a dangerous excess; when an alarming degree of excitement pervades the public mind; when property ceases to be protected, and the freedom Of private judgment, that boasted birthright of Britons, is arraigned, we trust the language of moderation will not be unacceptable, and that your Majesty will lend a favourable ear to the suggestions of those who now approach the throne from an earnest and anxious desire to still the tumult of civil discord, and to restore public confidence, tranquillity and peace. We have watched the progress of the Reform Bill lately introduced into the two Houses of Parliament with deep and intense interest; we have carefully examined its details; and we consider that we should ill discharge the duty which we owe to your Majesty as faithful and loyal subjects, were we not humbly but firmly to express our conviction that there is so much of innovation in some of its provisions, as would tend to destroy the equipoise of the three estates of the realm, bring the two Houses of Parliament into frequent and dangerous collision, hazard the security of the Established Church, and eventually even the existence of ( he monarchy itself. But though we cannot approve of tbat measure of reform as a whole, we are not insensible of those defects which the lapse of time has unavoidably occasioned in the constitution of ( he country; and we yield to none in an anxious wish to repair tlieni by such legislative enactments ns a sound discretion and enlightened caution may suggest. The repre- sentation in the House of Commons to those great towns which have so increased in wealth and popu- lation, as to require espccial guardians of their important local interests, might, we think, be safely substituted for that of such boroughs as have sunk into decay, or have lost so much of their former importance as to leave them no fair claims to their present share in the representation; and the more general extension of the elective franchise applied upon an equitable principle, and on a scale adapted with due regard to the fair influence of property might be conferred with advantage, and is what the present state of the country, from its great increase both in population and opulence, may justly claim We would, however, humbly submit to your Ma jesty, that the legitimate mode of carrying these desirable measures into effect is by the power of reason and argument, not by intimidation and vio- lence ( and we therefore humbly implore your Ma- jesty not to listen to the counsels of those, who, for the purpose of carrying a particular object, would urge npon your Majesty such an exercise of the Royal prerogative as would be a virtual extinction of the independence of a most important, branch of the legislature. The House of Peers, Sire, has proved itself equally a protector of the dignity of the Crown, and of the liberties of the people : it is the firmest constitutional barrier against the encroachments of popular excite ment and arbitrary power ; and no blow more fatal could be struck at the vital interests of every class of the community than Ihe invasion of its independence, or the subversion of its privileges. Of those privi- leges free discussion and unbiassed judgment form an undoubted part; and we are confident that you Majesty's unceasing solicitude for tire welfare of your Majesty's subjects would secure for them, in changes of great national importance, as much attention to the conscientious scruples of those who oppose, as to the urgent wishes of ( hose who demand them. We, therefore, hnnibly crave permission ( o state to your Majesty our firm conviction that the measure of reform may, by a prudent and mutual concession, be brought to a successful issue, w ithout diminishing its efficiency on tiie one hand, or violating the con- servative principle on the other, exempt from the perils of violent innovation, yet satisfactory to the reasonable expectations of the people. For the accomplishment of so desirable an object, we look to your Majesty with anxious hope and wilh firm confi- dence in your Majesty's sound judgment; convinced that there is no wish nearer your Majesty's heart than to secure the welfare and happiness of your people, and to preserve for posterity the integrity of those institutions which have carried the name of Britain, stamped with the indelible characters of glory, of wisdom, and of justice, to the remotest corners of the habitable globe.

The Mayor having received various communica- tions from His Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council, relative to the Spasmodic Cholera, has submitted the same to tbe Medical Establishment and to fhe magistrates of the town and liberties of Shrews- bury, for their consideration and advice as to the adoption of precautionary measures, as far as the same may be practicable, for the prevention of infection, and against the spreading of this disease. A requisition has also been made to the select vestries, the parochial officers, and committee of management of the streets, & c. to co- operate in their efforts in giving encouragement to the cleansing and purifying the habitations of the poorer classes of inhabitants; to the removal from the streets, roads, lanes, passages, avenues, and common sewers, parti- cularly the channels, all accumulation of dirt and filth; to the ventilation and lime- wash ing of all such places of abode as appeared to need the same; and to provide large families congregating iu small houses with additional room. It is highly satisfactory to report, that owing to the prompt and vigilant superintendance of these several authorities in carrying the foregoing requisi- tion into effect, the general comfort and universal satisfaction of the poor has been attained ; and it is hoped lhat these measures will prove the means of averting the consequences of this calamitous disease. In order to carry these objects more fully into operation, and with a view to promote the health of the inhabitants, the subjoined precautions, from their contributing to prevent or diminish the susceptibility to infection which individuals may possess at the moment the disease breaks out, are strongly recom- mended for adoption by the Board of Health estab- lished in London. The Second Doncaster Troop of Yeomanry [ FROM THE DONCASTER GAZETTE.] The following letter has been addressed by Lord Wharnclitle to Captain Elmsall, in answer to the resolutions of the Second Doncaster Troop :— « Wortley Hall, Nov. 6, 1831. " My Dear Sir— I have this evening received your letter of the 4th, with the enclosed unanimous reso- lutions of the Second Doncaster Troop. Nothing can he more satisfactory than those resolutions; and I beg of you to convey to the troop my best thanks for the manner in which, although some of them differ with me in political opinions, they express their readiness to obey my call and that of their country, whenever their services may be required. " It is quite evident that, upon any great measure such as that which has lately been the subject of discussion, there must be difference of opinion ; and if, upon such occasions, the Yeomanry should think it necessary to withdraw their confidence in their Commanding Officer, because, in his place in Parlia- ment, he has deemed it to be his duty to act upon an honest opinion, differing from theirs, I cannot help fearing that the usefulness of such corps will become very doubtful. " 1 have never believed that if unfortunately our active services should be required, any man in the regiment would allow his political opinions to inter- fere in any respect with his duty. I am, my dear Sir, ever yours truly, « WHARNCLIFFE." « Captain Elmsall." Precautions, strongly recommended by the Roard cf Health established in London, for Adoption against the Cholera. 1st. No sudden nor extensive alterations should be made in the usual modes of living; all changes of food to be useful, indeed not to be absolutely preju- dicial, should lend to render it drier, more nutritive and concentrated; moderately costive bowels, the almost invariable consequence of a dry, invigorating diet, will be found more conducive to exemption from Cholera than an opposite habit. 2d. Wherever aperients may become indispensable, those of a warm aromatic kind in moderate doses, or domestic means, should alone be resorted to. 3d. What is generally understood by salts, namely, Glauber's salts and Epsom salts, as well as other cold purgatives, should not be taken in any quantities, nor on any account without the express prescription of a medical man. 4th. The Medical Members of the Board of Health decidedly state that no specific preventative against Cholera is known to exist; and that the drugs hitherto offered with this pretension, in countries where the greatest ravages have been caused hy this disease, not only did not possess the negative virtue of doing no harm, but were fouud lo be absolutely injurious. 5th. The true preventatives are a healthy body, and a chearful, unruffled mind ; looseness of bowels should be immediately checked, and any thing like periodical chills or cold perspirations should be met by quinine in suitable doses ; but habitual drugging, at all times improper, is to be deprecated in the strongest terms when epidemic disease is apprehended. It is strongly recommended to the heads of families, upon their apprehending that the Cholera, or any other disorder approaching to it, has entered their houses, immediately to resort to their medical attend- ant, for advice and assistance ; and where the family are in such circumstances as to require the parochial medical attendant, immediately to apply to such gentleman, or the officer or inspector of such parish. f& f0 « llaneou0 Entelliflence. originally fixed at £ 20, and altered to £ 10, because in one borough containing 1700 inhabitants, the requisite number of voters, according to that standard, could uot have been fouud. Where would have been the shouts of the multitude if ( he £ 20 clause had been retained ? The people were worked up to a staje of frenzy by this extension of the franchise to a numerous class, which some of the authors of the bill themselves intended to ubundon in the House of Lords ; and yet, they urged fhis measure as a final settlement of the question f Final, when the bill wonld at last have excluded four- fifths of the voters on whose should era it was brought lo the Upper House! On such causes do the convulsion of nations and the fate of the world depend. Two ( ac( s were brought out in the debate, which, it is hoped, will for ever set tbis question of £ 10, or 3s. lOd. voters at rest. The one was, that out r. f 37S, 000 houses returned hy the Tax- OIIice, only 52,000 are above £ 20, and the other, that out of all the houses in ( lie empire returned by ( he Tax- Office, the majority is rated below £ 12. It was ad milted also by Lord John Russell, in the Lower House, that the real number of £ 10 houses was from three lo fifteen times greater than the Tax Oflice returns indicated ; and the Reform Bill allowed a house proved, any how, to be rented at £ 10, to confer a vole. Now, if a majority of the houses, rated even ill ( he Tax- Office returns, is below £ 12 a year, what sort of a majority would it have been when the houses below that value are admitted to have been from three to fifteen times greater than tbe result shewn by these returns ? From what a perilous set of electors have we been delivered by the fate ofthe Bill! And 011 the edge of what a gulf of perdition did we stand, when tbe firmness of the Peers interposed for our salvation ! BRISTOL. At a public meeting of the bankers, traders, merchants, & c. of the city of Bristol, held on Tuesday last, the following memorial was agreed to unanimously :— " To the Right Honourable Viscount Melbourne, His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for tbe Home Department. " We, the Merchants, Bankers, Traders, and other householders of the city of Bristol, in public meeting assembled, deeply lament that your lord- ship was unable lo return a more favourable an swer to the memorial presented on the 7tli instant. " We have no desire lo interfere with any legal proceedings that his Majesty's government or others may deem it proper to institute against either the civil or military authorities, 011 account of their alleged inefficiency iu suppressing the recent dis. graceful riots in this city, but we are extremely anxious that an investigation should be set on fool, free from all local prejudices, that may have ( he effect of giving that security to property, and confidence iu personal safety, which it is the strong impression 011 our minds we do not at present enjoy. " We are not willing to institute tbat inquiry among ourselves, bnt it must be evident that 110 information so acquired could have the same force in producing a conviction of the necessity of ulterior measures, as if collected by parties authorised by government, unshackled by local connexions, and free from all party prejudices. " All parties here concur in the propriety of such a course, and although we feel the weight of the objection urged by your lordship of the want of precedent, yet those to whom we owe the earliest precedents 011 any subject must have been iu the same situation as your lordship, aud, acting 011 their own wisdom, they created the various precedents that have been the guides to all subsequent ages. " The circumstances under which we call upon your lordship to act are, fortunately for Ihe charac- ter of the country, themselves unprecedented, and a city whose ruins present so awful a track of in- cendiarism and such glaring proofs of the incapacity of those whose duty it was to protect it, with one voice, calls upon your lordship to consider whether the inquiry instituted by the Irish government into the unfortunate transactions at N'ewtownbarry does not form such a precedent as would warrant the proceedings we desire; and if not, whether these ca'amitous events are not of sufficient magnitude lo authorise the creating a precedent for succeeding generations. " We humbly entreat that your lordship will induce his Majesty's government to reconsider this case, and grant such an inquiry as the only means of preserving Ihe city from tbe desertion and ruin with which it is threatened." It was also resolved, ( hat a Committee be ap- pointed, to forward the memorial, lo proceed forth- with in collecting evidence relating to the late disturbances, and to take every measure they may deem expedient to prosecute the fullest inquiry, COURT OF EXCHEQUER— WEDNESDAY. HUGHES V. MARSHALL AND OTHERS. In this case, the plaintiff, who is a publican, brought his action against the defendants, who formed part of the committee for conducting the election of Mr Slaney, for Shrewsbury, to recover the sum of £ 52 for refreshments, & c. served to the voters in that gentleman's interest, by their orders. The case was tried at the late assizes or the county of Salop, when the jury found for the plaintiff, to the full amount of his claim. The Court on a former day granted a rule to show cause why this verdict should not be set aside, and a new trial had, on the ground that the claim was barred by ( he statute passed for the purpose of pro- hibiting treating at elections. This point was argued at very considerable length, when the Court look time to consider its judgment. The Lord Chief Baron this morning delivered judgment. His Lordship said that the Court were unanimously of opinion that the rule must be dis- charged. The ease could not be brought under the operation of the Act of William the Third, generally called the " Treating Act." It was imperative to prove that the candidate himself had personally sanctioned the treating. Now it had been very pro- perly pm at the trial, whether the plaintiff had given credit to Mr. Slaney, the candidate, or to the defend ants, and the jury found that it was given to the latter. If the defendants had been guilty of treating, with ( he intention of influencing the election, tliey had committed an offence against the common law of the land, and were punishable accordingly ; but it appeared in evidence that the charge was only one shilling a day for the individuals who partook of refreshments, and there was no proof that even any of those individuals had been polled. It was there- fore preposterous to suppose that this could come within the penal clauses of Ihe statute which, it must be observed, allowed all necessary refreshment to persons coming from a distance, and those engaged in the business of the election. Rule discharged. PREROGATIVE COURT.— WEDNESDAY. SMITH AGAINST SMITH AND SMITH. This was a question of jurisdiction. Mr. John Smith, fhe deceased, died on the 18th of February 1830, within the jurisdiction of the Royal Peculiar of Bridgnorth, Salop, leaving bona notabilia there, and likewise in the Royal Peculiar of Wolverhampton. It was alleged, but not admitted, that he also left property in the diocese of Lichfield and Coventry. T he ( vill had been proved by two of the deceased's sons ( his executors) in the Deanery of Bridgnorth ; one of the other three sons, who were residuary legatees, now called for a decree upon the executors ( who appeared under protest) to bring in the will and to take probate iu this court. Dr. Lusliington said that the case was of some importance, for if the opposition to the decree were well founded, it would be necessary to take out one probate in Bridgnorth, another in Wolverhampton, another in the diocesan court of Lichfield, and another in a prebendal court. Could the law inflict such a hardship as this? The learned advocate cited Gilson, cod. 472, who said, that where a person died possessed of property in several peculiars or several dioceses administration was granted, not by the bishop but by the Metropolitan; and in the 92d canon the same rule was laid down, and no exception was mentioned. The onus, therefore, lay on the other side to show there could be an exception, and unless a clear exception could be proved, the manifest inconveniences of such a practice would induce the Court not to sanction it. Sir John Nicholl said that there was sufficient evidence that tlie.- e were Royal peculiars exempt from the jurisdiction of this Court. But there was property left in two peculiars, and the first question was, whether that circumstance would found asuffi cient jurisdiction of the Prerogative Court, so as to compel a party to bring in a will proved in a peculiar court. He ( the learned judge) apprehended that these peculiars were as much out of tbe provincial jurisdiction of the province of York, and that an appeal from them would lie, not to the Arches'Court, but to the Court of Delegates. The Metropolitan was, therefore, entitled in no way to interfere. It was true that considerable inconvenicncc arose lo the public; but that inconvenience must remain till the law provided a remedy. Riglits were involved, which it was the duty of the Court to respect. ' Hie next question was, whether the Court had a general jurisdiction, because, as it was alleged, some of the goods lay in the diocese of Lichfield and Coventry. He was of opinion that it rested with the executor 10 choose whether he should take a diocesan probate or a prerogative probate ; and at all events lie could not be called upon lo bring the will into this court. He should allow the protest, aud dismiss the executor. We are very happy to be able to contradict from authority the statement which appeared in several papers of this morning, of the death of the Bishop of Winchester. His Lordship was extremely ill on Friday last, but since Saturday he has been gradually getting better. The false report originated, we believe, with the Sun newspaper, which stated that a King's Messenger had brought the intelligence to town.— Albion of Tuesday. We have received the following private letter, and can vouch for the fact that the writer is both well- informed and most respectable, and certainly would not indite that which he knew to be untrue :— Ex tract of a letter from a gentleman resident at North Shields, dated Nov. 14.—" Thecholera is still spread- ing in Sunderland, though only slowly, owing, it is supposed, to the very favourable state of the winds and weather. There have been, up to Sunday last, tliirly persons attacked willi malignant or Asiatic cholera, and out of that number twenty- seven deaths have taken place. There are, I ought to have said there were, on that day, upwards of twenty cases of diarihcea, three of common cholera, and three of malignant or Asialic cholera, and it is to be feared tbat. the cases of diarrhoea will all prove malignant cholera, diarrhoea being the general mode of its attack. It would appear that the people of Sunderland are wishful to disguise the complaint as much as possible, for fear of affecting Ihe commerce of the port, and 011 that account they blame those surgeons who have stated it to he Asiatic ; it is even dangerous for them to be seen in the streets. The town is ripe for tumult, and some of the members of the Board of Health have even been obliged to go out of the place, so much are the inhabitants exasperated against them— for signing a report to the Board of Health in London, stating that it was the Foreign Cholera. There is no saying how things may end; but that the malady is the Foreign Cholera there ought to be little or no doubt. The slowness of its progress, however, asto- nishes ( lie mcdical men, and as yet it is entirely confined to that town ; Newcastle, Durham, and the two Shields, being yet free from its attack— though it is much feared that this w ill not long be the case, as no means are put in force to prevent its spreading into the country."— Leeds Intelligencer. A STRIKING INSTANCE OFTHE UNCERTAINTY OF WORLDLY THINGS.— On Friday, the 4th curt, the tenants of Sir John C. Austruther, Bart, upon his estate of Carmichael, gave adinner to Mr. Anstruther and Mr. Denholm, in Buchanan's Hotel, Lanark, as a mark of esteem and respect for these gentlemen, and the other trustees upon the estate, for their handsome conduct in granting them a renewal of the leases of their farms, without exposing them by public advertisement. The cloth had just been drawn, and the health of Sir John about to be pro- posed, when an express from Mr. Marsham and Lady Anstrqther, intimated to Mr. Anstruther the melancholy intelligence that the amiable Sir John had, upon Tuesday, been shot at Eton by his gun accidentally going off. The news operated upon the company like the hand writing upon the wall in the days of former years. In place of that glee and hilarity which, but a few moments before, nothing could surpass, every countenance was overcast with melancholy. The company unanimously broke up, having an impressive lesson read to I hem of the uncertainty of worldly things. They had seen the cup of happiness dashed from their lips, when about to partake of its intoxicating draught. CORPORATION OF LONDON.— Among the pretty scenes that have attended the radical march of this august body, one of the mosl striking occurred at a late meeting of the Aldermen; wheu the thanks of the Court were refused to the Lord Mayor, because, by persisting in obtaining his own re- election he had aided a body of the Livery who were anxious to take away the rights of the Aldermen!— the majority of these sane Aldermen, be it remembered being at the same time most ardent supporters of " the Bill," which is to invade and overpower the chartered right of election now exclusively held by the Livery of London!— Among the Aldermen pre- sent at this Court, was Alderman Copeland, who, as a'l the world knows, is a whole bill man; and, beiug such, must needs vote for all that may be required of hiin ; and we find his votes recorded for sweeping away rights and privileges wliich have continued for ages. Yet, notwithstanding his voting in this manner, we find him saying," that he would never consent, while he held a place in that court, for the rights and privileges of that body to be frittered away;" and that because he is thrown back from the civic chair one year; and he vents his indignation against the Court of Aldermen for not acting contrary to what they did at the last election for Lord Mayor. Had that worthy alder- man attended, as he ought to have done, the choice of the aldermen would have fallen upon Alderman Kelly— the election, as it will be recollected, being determined by the casting vote of the most in- terested, and perhaps the most ambitious, tnau iu the court. But 110; he kept away, aud assigns a very pitiful reason for so doing. " That he was afraid to vote as he wished; his property and person had been threatened if he did."— Noticing this matter, a correspondent of one of the London Papers says—" What a pretty confession for one of the magistrates of what was once the first city in the world! Were any of the oilier aldermen threatened with destruction of property and life? I have not heard of any, though it would be quite 11 keeping with the reformers' principles of justice. Be that as it may, oue would have supposed that they w ould not have laid violent hands on a man who had voted for their bills but I suppose they make no distinction. It matters not whether a man opposed to their favourite measure, or opposes the ambition of one of its devotees. This has been pretty well exemplified in the conduct of the mob upon more, than oue occasion. A contrast is here presented: at Bristol they attempt the life of an upright man because he votes against their darling measure; in Loudon, one of its magistrates is threatened who has voted for it. It must reflect a little disgrace upou Ihe city- police if they could uot protect its magistrates on Iheir way lo Guildhall. They are sufficiently strong, and he had nothing to fear: that seems lo be a mere subterfuge for non- attendance. Alderman Copeland was one of Sir Peter Laurie's friends at the commencement of the election— at least, he took a conspicuous part in endeavouring to secure his return— but he could forget his friendship to Laurie— for it was still his cause— in order to let the mob have their way; and afterwards come down seemingly to oppose the vote of thanks to the Lord Mayor, and regret his not having acted a more honourable part. " He felt ashamed of his conduct, and he blushed to state it How modest! The worthy alderman, 1 think, may now venture among the " bludgeon- nien" wilh safety. They will look over his seeming opposition to Sir John Key, and accept his expressions of regret. It is to him they owe the re- election of the Lord Mayor; and they will look over his former transgression, as they have done Alderman Thomp- son for his imprudent step. The inhabitants of Bisbopsgate should immediately get a requisition for him to resign his gown, iu order lhat they may select a man who is uot so inilk- aud- watery.'" . Lord de Tabley is about to be united to the daughter of Count and Countess de Salis. His lordship is in his 22d year. His father, Sir John Leicester, was elevated to the peerage in 1826, aud is remembered with gratitude as one of the most liberal patrons of Ihc Fiue Arts ever known iu this country. The peculiar friendship evinced by their Majesfies towards the family of Lord Howe, whose recent dismissal occasioned so much discussion, is under- stood to have arisen during the residence of these illustrious personages at Bushey Park. Sir William Waller, who is married to Baroness Howe, the mother of the Earl, occupies a beautiful villa on the banks of the Thames, in the vicinity of Hampton Court. This gentleman still retains bis place iu the Royal Household. THE WORKING CLASS.— A writer who has taken much pains to classify the population of London makes the following clear and sensible distinction between the real working class, and those who are too frequently looked upon as forming that useful body :—" I must draw a clear distinction between the desperadoes and the great bulk of the working class. The frequenters of the Rotunda are few in number: every where the working class constitutes a vast majority of the people. Tlie best informed, steadiest, and most virtuous of the working class have characters to lose, which most of the Rotunda people have not." Richard Sleynor, who died a short time ago in Birmingham workhouse, aged 87, was the son of Robert Steynor, Esq. who was the nephew and heir of Sir Richard Steynor, so distinguished for his defeat of the Spanish plate fleet off Cadiz, and for leading the van of the fleet under Admiral Blake, when Ihe Spanish galleons were destroyed in the harbour of Santa Cruz. Robert Steynor was once possessed of £ 1000 per anuum, but engaging in a law suit with the Salt Company at Droilwich, about a right to sink for a salt spring upon his own free- hold estate, he ruined himself and family. The un- fortunate Richard Steynor, his only surviving child, was suffered to end his days in a parish workhouse, where the punctual discharge of the little offices the infirmities of old age had left him capable of doing, procured liini more respect than all the public services of his father and family. A gentleman in the neighbourhood of Lewes, whose premises were much infested by rats, tried every means to effect their extermination, but with- out avail till " Baxter's Library of Agricultural Knowledge" having found its way into his library, he sought the remedy mentioned therein. Accord- ing to the directions, he procured a sugar hogshead, poured about five inches of water into it, and in Ihe cenlre placed a brick. He then covered the top with a piece of parchment, on which he placed enticing food for the rats. Here they feasted them- selves for a few days, when he made several open- ings through the parchment, sufficiently large for a rat to drop through. The baits being again laid, no sooner did one of the rats get 011 the top than he fell into the water. He of course swain lo the brick, where he moaned most piteously. The whole com- munity of rats were alarmed, aud their cariosity led them in great numbers to the spot. They got 011 the parchment head, where they had often before been ; and in they dropped in quick succession. Now came the sport. There being ouly o » e brick in the hogshead, a war ensued for its possession. They fought most desperately, and the longer the battle continued, the greater became the number of forces, for all the rats about the premises rati to see what was the matter, and sharing the fate of those which preceded them, dropped into the hogshead. The war lasted some hours, and was not quite silenced even by Ihe morning. When, at length, all became still, the gentleman removed the parch- ment, aud discovered the number of rats he had caught to be much larger than he had supposed to be on his premises. He has since recommended the same plan to all his neighbours, and it has beeu found equally efficient.— Brighton Gazette. The presumed mnrder of the poor Savoyard boy ( Carlo l-' errair) by the resurrection- men still occupies a prominent situation in the public attention, ' l'he crime of Burke at Edinburgh is the only one lhat approaches it, for it is not to be viewed as a solitary crime, but as a practice, a diabolical advance in the operations of human depravity. This inordinate advance of disease in the physical and moral worlds must be obvious to every attentive observer. Much has been said of the march of intellect in the present age ; but if we laste the fruits of the tree of know- ledge, are we therefore necessarily doomed to partici- liate in those of the tree of evil ? A hri* rhl. Hav. il i. pate tri e bright day, it is true, inspires cheerfulness; and the mind derives a gloomy tinge from a dark and clouded sky. So far we trace an association between mind and matter; bnt how it extends exceeds our philosophy to determine. The coincidence at the preseut moment to which we particularly allude is probably accidental. The horrid murder which now occupies so much of the public attention, may, we think, be easily traced to a probable source— the perpetrators appear to have been professionally what is vulgarly called body- snatchers, or resurrection- men. We do not mean to fix the crime upon the wietched individuals under examination : this would be fo prejudge their case. It is sufficient, for our argument, to assume that the crime was committed by habitual and practised wretches of that description, and of this there is positive and conclusive evidence. We think, then, that there is sufficient in this single circumstance to account for the excess of criminality at which the country is now arrived. Look into the history of all nations, civilized or barbarous, from the earliest ages, and do we not find respect for the ashes of the dead not merely a custom or conventional injunction, but an innate feeling in human nature. The violation of it, therefore, is not nn ordinary trespass, nor merely an offence against civil law, as it is constituted— it is further a violation of a primary principle inherent in man. We cannot conceive any crime more calculated to harden the heart, to brutify and demoralise the individual, to qualify him for every conceivable out- rage on humanity, than ( his invasion of the dead, encouraged as it is, in defiance of the law, by the bribes aud countenance of a profession which, taken as a whole, is deservedly estimable in society. If a school were designed by the author of all mischief for the encouragement of wickedness, we cannot con. ceive one better fitted to succeed in the production of the highest order of crime than the profession of a resurrection- man. Nor can this particular murder of extraordinary atrocity be considered independently of the general state of crime, the spirit of incendiarism, and the numerous and alarming outrages everywhere prevalent in England. When Ihe property of the rich, acquired by the talents and industry of them- selves or their ancestors, is denounced as plunder of the poor— when vested rights, derived from equally legitimate sources, are stigmatised as scandalous usurpations— when long- established institutions and customs, interwoven with the frame of our social system, are scoffed at as the work of barbarous ignorance, or the offspring of folly and corruption when these doctrines are inculcated by Ministers and their advocates, the mind is impelled, with an unusual violence, into a revolutionary course, as well moral as political, and crime attains a height and extent to which it. lias never before arrived, for fhis simple reason— because never before were such doctrines taught and enforced by persons in authority, and, consequently, never before did crime receive such extraordinary encouragement in England.
