MONDAY.— The Dulse of WELLINGTON, on presenting a petition from Newcastle, complaining ofthe Dutch embargo, said he would have entered into remarks on the subject, but that he understood that circumstances were not unlikely to justify the removal of the embargo.- r- The Earl of ABERDEEN spoke in support of the petition. — Earl GREY expressed his satisfaction at Noble Lords abstaining from remarks at present, and added that be hoped, when the proper time arrived, be should be able to justify the conduct of the Govern- ment.

The motion, after some discussion, wasacquiesced in, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stating that be should resist inquiry as to the Civil List pensions, but that he should not oppose investigation respecting pensions chargeable on the Consolidated Fund. Sir S. WHALLEY brought forward his resolution declaratory of the expediency of repealing tbe house and window taxes. He declared that tbe feeling against their continuance, on the ground of their injustice and partiality, possessed every part of the country, and that the threatened resistance ought to induce the Ministers to ascertain whether it was just or unjust.— Mr. S. RICE said that all practicable relief had been proposed; and that the contemplated reductions would afford extensive relief.

FEHGUSSON the issuing of the writ for the borough of Warwick was suspended until the 17th of June.

Instead of moving for a Bill, he proposed the appointment of a Committee, to ascertain what were the defects in tbe Act.— Lord J. RUSSELL objected to the motion, on the ground of the time at which it was brought forward.— Mr. WAR- BURTON moved, as an amendment upon Mr. Tooke's motion, " That a Committee should be appointed to inquire into, and report concern- ing, the inconsistent and contradictory decisions come to by the Committees of that House, and by the Revising Barristers, on the Re.' orm Bill." The propositions led to an extended discussion.— When tbe House divided, the result was— Ayes, 68; Noes, 94. Mr. R. GRANT moved the second reading of the Jewish Civil Dis- abilities'Bill, which called forth an extended discussion, in which many Members took part; amongst those who spoke, Dr. LUSHING- TON strongly supported the Bill, and Sir R. INGLIS as earnestly re- sisted it.— Mr. R. GRANT also supported the Bill with great zeal.— The House eventually divided, when the numbers were— For the second reading of the Bill, 159 ; against it, 52. The remainder of the sitting was occupied with discussing the propriety of giving retired allowances to certain Judges, in conse- quence of the proposed alteration in the Appellate Jurisdiction of tbe Privy Council.— The discussion terminated by a motion by Mr. HUGHES, that the House be counted out, when there being only 28 Members present, an adjournment consequently took place.

The SPEAKER said, it not being half- past five o'clock, by tbe rules of the House tbe motion could not be put. Mr. SHAW presented several petitions from places in Ireland against the Irish Church Bill. Captain GRONOW again moved that the House be counted.

Tbe Committee declared tbe latter Gentleman duly elected, atid that neither the petition nor opposition were frivolous nor vexatious.

Lord ALTHORP said the warrant had some time back been issued for the distribution of the money, but in consequence of a discussion in the House it was suspended, and no decision bad yet. been come to. Lord ALTHORP moved that tbe House at its rising should adjourn to Thursday next.— Agreed to. Mr. BERNAL moved that the Report of the Hertford Election Com- mittee of the 2d of April be read.— It was bis duty, as a Chairman of that Committee, to bring the subject before the House, which he should do as briefly as the importance of it would admit. He held in his hand a voluminous Report of the evidence adduced before the above- mentioned Committee, occupying no less than 400 pages ; but this enormous mass of evidence need not terrify Hon. Members, as it would not be necessary to go completely through it, but only to extract shortly the most essential points upon which the House could come to a decision.— The Hon, Gent, then, at considerable length, brought before the House the leading featuresof the Report bearing upon the charges of corruption, which led to a lengthened discussion that, terminated in a resolution being carried, by a majority of 277 ' O 55, to refer the matter to a Select Committee, with a view to the eventual disfranchisement or extension of that. borough. Mr. O'CONNELL then brought forward his motion for tbe disfran- chisement of the borough of Carrickfergus. The Committee had declared that aross and scandalous bribery existed on both sides at the last election."— If ever there was a case upon which the House ought to act a t once, and without further inquiry, such was this case. It would he for the House to say to what place the franchise should iie transferred. Asa matter of delicacy he did not think it would become him to give any opinion. In conclusion he moved that tbe House should agree with the Committee in tbe Resolution they had come to on the subject of bribery and corruption in the town of Carrickfergns'.-— After a shortdiscussion the motion was agreed to.— On the motion of Mr. O'C'ONNELL it was ordered that the writ for Carrickfergus be suspended till the 1st of July.— The Hon. and Learned Gentleman then obtained leave to bring in a Bill for the disfranchisement of the boroui/ h.-— The other Orders of the Day- were then disposed of, and the House adjouruedat a Quarter to Two o'clock till Thursday next.

COLBURN'S MODERN NOVELISTS.— The work selected for the ninth number of this cheap and standard collection, is Mr. Ward's ( author of Tremaine) popular novel of De p'ere— a production peculiarly suited to the wants and inclination of persons in early life, as its subject relates almost entirely to the workings of ambition, the in- fluence of which passion on the mirid and habits of individuals in society, for good and for evil, is developed with singular felicity. It is a remarkable point connected ivith this work, that many traits and anecdotes of striking notoriety have been employed in it for the sake of illustration, although the persons from whom they are bor- rowed are not those designated by the author. LORD HOWICK'S PLAN for the ABOLITION of COLONIAL SLAVERY, together with a corrected report of his Lordship's Speech on that subject in the House of Commons, May 14th, will be published to- morrow.

Warehouse, 107, Strand, corner of the Savoy- steps, London, JOHN BURGESS and SON, being apprised of the numerous endeavours made by many persons to impose a spurious article for their make, feel it incumbent upon them to request the attention of the Public, in purchasing what they conceive to be the Original, to observe the Name and Address correspond wi'h the above. The general appearance of the spurious' descriptions will deceive the unguarded, and for their detection, J. B. and Son submit the following Cautions: some are in appearance at first sight " The Ge- nuine," but without any name or address— some " Burgess's Essence of An- chovies"— others " Burgess," and many more without address. JOHN BURGESS and SON having been many years honoured with such distinguished approbation, feel every sentiment of respect toward the Public* and earnestly solicit them to inspeet the labels previous to purchasing what they conceive to be of their make, which they hope will prevent many disappointments. BURGESS* NEW SAUCE, for general purposes, having given such great satisfaction, continues to be prepared by them, and is recommended as a most useful and convenient Sauce— will keep good in all climates.

M PORTA NT TO EVERY ONE.— An eminent Medical Writer has remarked, and experience has proved the fact beyond dispute, that those- who are attentive to keeping the Stomach and Bowels in proper order, preserve Health, prevent Disease, and generally attain cheerful and healthy o'd age: for that truly desirable purpose STIRLING'S STOMACH PILLS are particularly adapted, being prepared with the Sulphate of Quinine, and the most choice sto machic and aperient drugs of the Materia Medica. They have in all cases proved* superior to any other medicine in the cure of Stomach and Liver Complaints,. Loss of Appetite, I'ndigestion, Sensation of fullness and oppression after Meals* Flatulence, Shortness of Breath, Spasms, and all disorders incident to the Sto- mach and Bowels, and an excellent restorative after any excess or too free indul- gence at the table, as they gently purge and cleanse the bowels, strengthen the- stomach, improve digestion, and invigorate the who'e constitution. Females who- value good health should never be without them, as they^ purify the blood, remove obstructions, and give the skin a clear, healthy, and blooming appearance. Per- sons of a Plethoric habit, who are subject to headache, giddiness, dimness o£ sight or dro- wsiness, from too great a flow of blood to the head, should take them> frequently They are so mild and gentle in their aetion, that children and per* sons of aM ages may take them at any time, as they dt » not contain Mercury or any ingredient that requires confinement or restriction of diet. They should be kept in every family as a remedy in cases of sudden illness; for by their- prompt administration, Cholera Morbus, Cramps, Spasms, Fevers, and other alarming complaints, which too often prove fatal, may be speedily cured or pre- vented.— Prepared onlv by J.

Rheumatism, and Lumbago, in the shortest possible time, with the most perfect ease and safety.

A poor fellow, who wanted a trifle to raise At a Pawnbroker's, looked with a sigh At his old worn- out Boots that for yeais in oae place Unmolested had hungup on high. Those Boots were the whole that unpledg'd he possess'd, Save a bottle of Warren's Jet Blacking: For that Blacking he well was assured was the best. And never of beauty waslacking. He brushed up the Boots, and by Warren's rich Jet They soon were in lustre arrayed ; The Pawnbroker smiled at the polish he met, As it brightly his features pourtrayed. And though the boots were not in fact worth a crown, The Pawnbroker fancied them new Put his hand in his parse and a guinea threw down As he praised their delectable hue. _. T, Tr, . . THIS Easy- shining and Brilliant BLACKING is prepared by ROBERT WA RRSN, 30, STRAND, London: and sold in every town in the Kingdom.

LONDON, MAY 26, THEIR MAJESTIES are at St. Jameses— On Tuesday the KING'S Birthday will be celebrated at Court, with great splendour. Friday being the birthday of the Princess VICTORIA, when her Royal Highness entered her fifteenth year, the day was observed at Kensington with much feeling of attachment. The bells of the parish church rang merry peals from an early hour in the morning the flags were hoisted on the church, & c. At twelve o'clock the Duchess of KENT and the Princess received the congratulations of all the members of their Royal Highnesses' Household. In the afternoon they received visits from the QUEEN, the Duke and Duchess of CUMBERLAND, the Princess AUGUSTA, the Princess SERHIA, the Duke of SUSSEX, the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER, the Princess SOPHIA MATILDA, and Prince GEORGE of CAMBRIDGE. Almost all the Foreign Ministers and the Nobility and Gentry in town called during the day to leave their names for the Duchess of KENT, At night their Royal Highnesss' tradespeople in the town of Kensington illuminated their houses. In the evening the Duchess of KENT and the Princess VICTORIA, • with a large. 6Uite, went to the Ball given in honour of the day at the Palace at St. James's, by their MAJESTIES. To- morrow the Duke and Duchess of CUMBERLAND will give Grand Dinner to their MAJESTIES and an illustrious circle at Kew Palace, to commemorate the birth- day of His Royal Highnes6 Prince GEORGE, who completes his 14ch year on that day. perhaps that, tlx; like of which exists in all nations, and will till time shall be no reore. IT is stated that the Commander- in- Chief in Bengal has resigned, and that Lord WILLIAM BENTINCK has assumed the functions of that office with those of Governor- General. Some of the newspapers state that Lord WELLESLEY held both offices. This never could happen, because Lord WF. L- LESLEY is not a military man. Lord HASTINGS did. The Civil Governor- General of India, by his commission of Cap- tain- General, is always virtually the commander of the army, but not practically so. LORD GREY has at length got somebody to go Secretary to Ireland— Mr. LITTLETON is the man. Thrown over- board for the Speakership, the Irish Secretaryship, after having been smelt at, and eveu mumbled by a numerous train of hungry expectants— none of whom would risk their seats for it— has been accepted by the Member for Stafford shire. He will be made a Privy Councillor,— which, by the way, he seemed to fancy himself, in the interregnum between the last and present Parliament, by the manner in which he wrote his name on the superscriptions of his letters ; and he will have to please Lord ANGLESEA and all Ireland, and, oeing approved of, if not actually recommended to Lord GREV, by Mr. O'CONNELL, there can be little doubt of his entire success. Whether he is to have the additional pleasure a contest for his return, time will shew. A new treaty has been made with Holland, by which the English and French embargoes will be taken off Dutch ves- sels in the ports of ihe two countries, and the Dutch Govern- ment, on their part, will cease to interrupt the navigation of England and France. The services of the English and French united squadrons will thus likewise be dispensed with, and the intercourse between the respective parties and Holland placed on the same footing as before the French expedition in November last. The Dutch garrison of Ant- werp, now prisoners in France, will, by the same arrange' ment, be sent home. The armistice between Holland and Belgium will be continued till the definitive settlement of a permanent separation, and till that time the navigation of the Scheldt will remain free. This treaty has been agreed " upon with the Dutch Plenipotentiary, and was sent off to Holland for ratification on Tuesday. This convention will doubtless remove much mutual an- noyance, but the subsequent negociation will be both critical and important. It is anything but a final settlement, and it leaves it open to the King of HOLLAND to take advantage of any change in the political state of Europe, or modification « f the Cabinet of Great Britain. So far seemed so good— but it is now stated that the Rus- sian Ambassador here has received orders to delay tile " final settlement," and that his Excellency has accordingly acted upon his instructions. THE news from SPAIN is interesting in a high degree. Don CARLOS, actuated solely by conscientious motives, de- clines acknowledging the Princess of ASTURIAS as his future Sovereign. The following is the Prince's declaration " My well- beloved Brother, & c.— This morning, at ten o'clock, my Secretary PLAZAOLA came to me to say that your Minister at this Court ( Cordova) had requested to know when it would be convenient to me to receive a communication of a Royal order. He was an- swered that twelve would be a fitting time for such a purpose. He returned at a few minutes before one, and I immediately saw him. He presented me with an official paper, which I read, and having done so, I said that my dignity and my character would not permit me to delay in stating that you were my King and my Lord, and, besides, my brother, and always my much loved brother, further • endeared to me by having shared in all your misfortunes. " You wish to know whether I intend, yes or no, to swear to your • daughter, as Princess of ASTURIAS. NOW, as far as wishes go, you will believe, because you know me, when I say that with all my • heart would I take that oath, and that nothing would give me greater pleasure than to be the first to recognize your daughter, and to spare you any offence or possible inconvenience which my declining to do « o, ought occasion. But my conscience and my honour do not permit it.; ll possess rights so legitimate that I could not uiveet myself of < hem— rights which God gave me when it was his pleasure that I entered upon existence, and which God alone can take awav, *> y transferring them to a male child of your's, which I desire so • auch, it may be even more, than you yourself do. Moreover, in tfcis I am defending the justice of the rights of all those who are cailed nfter me, and, therefore, I feel myself called upon to transmit to you - th « subjoined declaration, which I have made with the greatest formality, and addressed to all the Sovereigns, to whom hop< e yop will communicate it. " Ad'os, rey well- beloved brother, and be assured thatyour welfare Will be gluri& i the first object of the prayers of your affectionate brother, CARLOS. " DECLARATION. > l I, Carlos Marias Isidore de Borbon y Borbon, Infante of Spain. * « ® rii) ced of the legitimate rights which I possess to the Crown of Spaiu, and assured that your . Majesty has no heir- male to the same, « Osay that neither my conscience nor my honour permit me to swear to, or recognise, any ether than those rights, and this I solemnly wchre. To the Senor our King, His affectionate brother and faithful vassal. The Infant Don CARLOS DE BORRON Y BORBON." " In the Palace of Ramaihao, the 29/ A April, 1833." Accompanying this impioftant— because decisive— docu- ment, we have the news that tke QUKKN is enceinte ; should this fortunately be the case, the Infant Don CARLOS may have all his scruple* overcome, and the Crown may be transferred to a male child " which he desires so much— it Jnay be even more than the KING himself," At all events, there is the Declaration, and it has the merit pf fandour, and as we are bound to believe, of conscientiousness. Our letters from Spain represent the Administration of M. ,. F'F BERMUDEZ as extremely popular— his zeal and energy, his frankness and openness of manner, his ardent attachment - to CIS country and her institutions, his devotion to his SOVE, StElGN, and his kindly disposition towards every ct^ ss of his countrymen, could not fail to make his efforts for the advan- tage and honour of Spain acceptable to all parties— except, WE perceive that the noblemen, gentlemen, merchants, and others interested in the fate of our West Indian colonies, have pursued the course to which the impending destruction of their properly so clearly pointed— a meeting— which we have no doubt will be equally well and respectably attended with the last which was held for a similar purpose— is called for to- morrow, at the City of London Tavern, and the signatures appended to the requisition afford of themselves sufficient evidence of the importance of the question at issue, and of the magnitude of the interests involved in the pro. posed experiment of Mr. STANLEY, hitherto the proclaimed enemy of precipitate emancipation, and at present the cham pion of immediate abolition and legislative spoliation. To produce conviction in the minds of Government, pledged as it is, by itself and its friends, both in Parlia- ment and out of it, iiv Birmingham and Coldbath- fields, is hopeless— but no part of our duly shall be more scrupu lously attended to than that of undeceiving the people, from unquestionable and incontrovertible authority, as to the calumnies which Mr. STANLEY, rather in the character of a zealous partisan than of an impartial Minister, has heaped upon the traduced misrepresented West Indian Colonists with regard to their disinclination to ameliorate the condition of the black population at the suggestion of Ministers at home. A reference to our columns will exhibit extracts from the official proceedings of the different Colonial Legislatures, whence it will be seen that, so far from neglecting the sug- gestions of the Government at home, they have uniformly acted upon them, and have most readily and earnestly co- operated with it, so far as such co- operation, as Mr. CAN- NING said when he moved the resolutions, did not hazard the safety of their property. It is true they did not grant shoes as a boon to the slave, to whom wearing them would be torture, nor present a case of razors per annum to a race of beardless men; but, as is shewn in the official reports to which we allude, they did every thing men could do to evince their humanity and consideration, and to avert the charges which the Colonial Secretary of State thought pro- per to make against them in his place in Parliament. In considering the mad project of Mr. STANLEY, four distinct questions present themselves to view :— The first, as to the legality of the spoliation principle which shall takeaway from a man his " goods and chattels," in the possession of which he has been legally guaranteed his indefeasible right in which, to sell or mortgage, has been recognised by an Act of Parliament passed since Mr. CAN- NING'S Resolutions, and to an investment of money in which he or his ancestors have been incited and encouraged by other Acts of Parliament under the special sanction and pe- culiar encouragement of the reigning Monarch. The second, ( admitting for argument sake the stupendous stretch of power assumed by our liberal Ministers,) as to the possibility of securing anything like a remuneration to the owner of the slave even in the small degree which it is pro. posed to afford it, in the present financial state and temper of Great Britain. The third, as to the benefit derivable from the scheme by the blacks ; and fourthly, as to the immediate effects of the announcement of the crude undigested proposition upon the colonial population, black and white, carried to them as it already is, coloured up to suit the tastes and purposes of all the different correspondents with our West Indian islands. As to the question of spoliation :— Much is to be appre- hended, as we have already said, from a Ministry pledged in its turn to a House of Commons, the majority of which was pledged at the hustings to an entire and immediate abolition of negro slavery. But surely the nation may look wilh hope and security to the salutary and constitutional counteracting influence of the two other Estates of the realm : or, failing that, is there not the MONARCH, who, personally familiar with the circumstances of the case, and feelingly alive to the shameful libels and calumnies with which the colonists are assailed, must, independently of such knowledge and such conviction, recollect that he has sworn in the face of us all, his faithful subjects ( bound to our allegiance by an oath, equally and but equally binding,) to maintain the Great Charter and the Bill of Rights, by which every man's pro. perly, of which he is legally possessed, is secured to him and his heirs; and who moreover must be conscious that his an- cestors and predecessors on the Throne have, by the most solemn compacts, guaranteed the property in question, and that no law of which we are cognizant can have the power to take away or destroy that property without full and adequate compensation. Compensation you shall have," says Mr. STANLEY— why what absurdity— upon a calculation, the entire folly of which we shall presently shew. Mr. STANLEY offers a sum of fifteen millions to be raised upon loan, he now hints at twenty millions— why neither Mr. STANLEY nor Lord ALTHORP can raise a fiftieth part of the sum the people will not pay tho ordinary Assessed Taxes they defy the Government — three Parish Meetings in the metropolis on Tuesday night, officially, and in their corporate capacity, presided over by churchwardens, and attended by all the parochial officers, declare they will not pay the Taxes — and declare, moreover, that they shall only laugh at the Tax- gatherer when he comes, be- cause the Government has no power that they care for, to enforce the payment. And this is the Government that flourishes off a proposition for raising fifteen or twenty mil- lions of money to destroy the property of thousands of whites, and ruin the comfort of nearly a million of blacks. But, even supposing ( hat the helpless Ministers could by dint of Tory support or Conservative patronage really get up such a loan as they talk of— what would it do ? Mr. STANLEY— that is, one of the Clerks in the Colonial Office, for him— considers the whole slave population in the West | Indies to amount to 800,000, that every slave Is upon the average worth sixty pounds, and that Ihe annual profit thence derived amounts to 1,500,0001. ITjjder the STANLEY scheme, every slave is to have the power of converting himself into an apprentice for twelve years, at the end of which period he is to be free. In re- turn for this power his maiter is to have three- fourths of his labour while he remains an apprentice, for which three- fourths of his labour he is to find his apprentice house, clothes and food, exactly as he does at piesent, when he has, of right, all his labour ; but not only so— in ad- dition to this provision, the apprentice may force his master to accept the remaining fourth part of his labour, for which he ( his own master) is to pay him, his own slave, in his new character of apprentice, one- twelfth part of his estimated value, as uiages ! It has been calculated that half the slaves, i. e. 400,000, will choose to be apprentices— leaving, of course, all the old, weak, inefficient, and unhealthy, upon the hands of the masters, to eDjoy the comforts, nursing, medicine, and medical attendance, all of which, in addition to house, clothing, and food in abundance, are found them, ill or well, able or unable. Supposing then that this half of the slave- population, amounting to 400,000, are worth, as Mr. STAN- LEY states, sixty pounds each, five pounds a year must be paid by each master, upon whom the apprentice is pleased to force his industry, for the favour of one- fourth of his labour. The masters will therefore have to pay for these fourths of days no less than two millions per annum, which, as Mr. STANLEY is also pleased to put the profits derived from the West Indian colonies at one million and a half, will leave the planters cultivating their estates at a loss of five- hundred thousand a year. But then, to meet this, Mr. STANLEY is to lend a portion of the fifteen million, which he is to raise, to each planter, to enable him to pay these wages, of which a portion is to be paid back by the black ap- prentices to the Lords of the Treasury, in liquidation of the interest of the loan ; but if the black apprentices should forget or neglect to do this, the Government can recover it' of the master. Now we will suppose the black apprentice to be very regu- lar— the free blacks are remarkably so— and that he pays- one half of the wages to the Government, then the planters are compensated for the spoliation and robbery proposed, by paying one million a year for one fourth of the labour neces- sary to cultivate lands producing a million and a half. Supposing, therefore, Mr. STANLEY'S imaginary loan of 15,000,0001. to be a reality; we think the two first points, the right of spoliation intended, and the justice of the compensation proposed, may be made pretty evident. As to the third question, which relates to the benefits de- riveable to the slave from emancipation, we need only refer to the numerous eloquent and well- written works which have appeared on the subject, or to the saintly protestations of the veteran WILBERFOUCE, that nothing was farther from his thoughts, when he urged so perpetually and so suc- cessfully the abolition of the Slave Trade ; or to the speeches of Mr. STEPHEN, at a much later period ( 1817). or to the Parliamentary orations of Mr. Fox of a much earlier date in 1796, when that great patriot in advocating the abolition of the Slave Trade adopted the tone of the insidious canters as to the marked distinction between the abolition of the traffic and the emancipation of the blacks, said, " The question is not one which interferes with the local jurisdic- tion of the Colony— The confusion, in this instance, has arisen from the idea that if the abolition takes place it must necessarily be followed by emancipation— I hope and trust it will, but this point I leave for the decision of the proper Legislature, with whose provisions I have no wish to inter- fere— We do not pretend to legislate for them on the point of emancipation .'" Beside these authorities, we have Lord LANSDOWNE,, a member of the present Cabinet, who, on the 17th of March,. 1807, said:—" The abolition of the Slave Trade, and the emancipation of the slaves, were two distinct questions; and it had always been maintained by the leading characters in that House, that in considering the one, the other ought to be excluded from their contemplation."—" To emancipate the negroes," said Lord LANSDOWNE, " would not be to add to their happiness, EVEN IP THE LEGISLATURE HAD A RIGHT TO INTERFERE WITH THE PROPERTY OF THF. COLONIES ! ! ! All that could be done by this country with safety and effect had been done ; he put it therefore most respectfully to his Noble Friend to withdraw his Bill for the Abolition of Slavery."— In this view Mr. EDEN agreed. To this distinct and clear statement Mr. WILBERFORCE added these words:—" Had the motion proceeded from a less respectable quarter he would have been glad that it had been made, as it would show that he ( WILBBRFORCE) and' those who thought with him made the distinction between the abolition of the Slave Trade and the emancipation of the slaves, and not only abstained from proposing the latter, but were ready to reject such a proposition when made by others. The enemies of the abolition had always confounded these two objects— the friends had always distinguished them." These extracts would be quite sufficient to prove one of two things,— either that the Saints were convinced of the ruinous consequences of emancipation, or that, in the most insidious, sneaking, and hypocritical manner, they openly denounced what they eventually determined to effect, in. order to delude the parties most interested into yielding a por- tion, that they might be the easier robbed of all, eventually. These references, we say, would have been quite sufficient for our purpose, in this hasty sketch ; but we are forced into other quotations by the appearance of a pamphlet written by a gentleman of the name of CONDER, called " Wages or the Whip" written to shew the comparative cost of free and slave labour. In this attempt to move the obdurate planter by an appeal to his pocket instead of his heart, Mr. CONDER quotes copiously from the work on " Colonial Policy,"''' which first raised the present LORD CHANCELLOR in the publio estimation as a pamphleteer, and whence we have often our- selves taken the liberty of making a few extracts. Mr. CONDER, however, compiles from the work a string" of authorities cited by Mr. BKOUGHAM in favour of free- labour, rather than any original opinions of the learned gentleman's own. We are therefore compelled, in justice to the LORD CHANCELLOR— who is supposed to exemplify his hatred of slavery, not only in the work just mentioned, but by his more recent practice ofelevaling the " free labourers' 1'' of Gray's Inn- lane to the Magisterial bench of Middlesex,— to produce a few passages from his Lordship's " elaborate, treatise," as Mr. CONDER calls it, which we think will at least neutralize the small bit of honey which that geu'lemaa has culled for the liberators, and at the same time give to- • he world a fresh edition of the CHANCELLOR'S own views of slave emancipation. Speaking of the invasion of America by the Spaniards— for the LORD CHANCELLOR traces the subject very care- fully and minutely— his Lordship says, " The conquerors found it impossible to overcome the constitutional repv- g- nance to labour of every kind"—" they soon discovered that men who had no desires to gratify would not submit to May 96. JOHN BULL: 165 work, and lliat 110 ( ear of distant evil, nothing but the lash of the master, could conquer the rooted aversion with which habit had taught the ludiuH to view every pursuit that re- quired active exertion." He then tells us how LAS CASAS procured a commission to be sent out, to examine into the necessity for the system of " repartimientos,"''' and to in vestigate, on the spot, the merits of the question; " but," says Lord BROUGHAM, " the result of all their enquiries led to the same conclusion, that the emancipation of the natives, must be the signal for the universal cessation of industry."''' Lord BROUGHAM then proceeds to relate how " the Em peror, with that quickness of decision uhich loo often marked his councils, proclaimed their immediate and uncon- ditional emancipation ; still it was found that their industry and freedom were incompatible." PERU was only saved by a repeal of the law, and all that Spain has, up to the pre- sent period, been able to do, is to establish " certain humane regulations, tending to mitigate the NECESSARY SERVITUDE of the Indians." Lord BROUGHAM then quotes PARKE, to prove the ana- logy which exists between these Indians and the West India blacks, and proceeds of himself thus:—' The FREE • negroes in the West Indies, with a very few exceptions, chiefly in ( lie Spanish and Portuguese settlements, equally averse to all sorts of labour which do not contribute to the supply of their immediate and most urgent wants. Improvi- dent and careless of the future, they are not actuated by that principle which inclines more civilized men to equalise their exertions at all times, and to work after the necessaries of the day have been procured, in order to make up the possible deficiencies of to- morrow ; nor has their intercourse with the whites taught them to consider any gratifica- tion as worth obtaining which cannot be procured by a slight exertion of a desultory and capricious industry." " Of their invincible repugnance to all sorts of labour," says Lord BROUGHAM, " tile most ample evidence is pro- duced in the Report of the Committee of Privy Council ( 178S). Messrs. FULLER, LONG, and CHISHOLME state that free negroes were NEVER known to work for hire.'''' Mr. BRATHWAITE, the Agent for Barbados, affirms, that if the slaves Were offered their freedom on condition of working for themselves, not one tenth of them would accept of it. Governor PARRY states that ftee negroes are utterly destitute of industry : and the Council of the Island adds, that from their confirmed habits of idleness they are the pests of society. Lord BROUGHAM then quotes M. MALOUET to prove that the free negroes, in French Colonies, are equally idle ; and this gentleman goes the length of stating distinctly, that " the spectacle never yet was exhibited of a free negro sup- porting his family on his little property ;" and, says Lord BROUGHAM, " all other authors agree in giving the same description of free negroes.— The Abbe? RAYNAL himself," adds his Lordship, '•• with all his ridiculous fondness for savages, caunot in the present instance so far twist the facts according to his fancies and his feelings, as to give a favour- able portrait of this degraded race." So much for BROUGHAM'S advocacy of free labour. A word or two more from the Chancellor, even still more pointedly applicable to Mr. CONDER, the author of " WAGES, or the WHIP!" Speaking of the Koromantees, who have been slaves in Africa, after citing BRYAN EDWARDS in proof of " their alacrity in field labour," Lord BROUGHAM observes:— " These habits of industry, however, have been formed by the constant dread of punishment— no principle less power- ful can maintain them, and they must cease with the master"' s authority, to which they owed their existence. This has been clearly established by the view which has already been taken of the free negroes in our old sugar colonies."''' This is a curious authority to have been quoted by Mr. CONDER in his advocacy of Wages versus IF~ hip,"— but we have more of BROUGHAM yet:— " Manners and circumstances," says his Lordship, " are independent of positive institutions— they prescribe bounds to the decrees of despotism, and give laws to the legislator in the plenitude of his power. It will be vain to think of securing the privileges of the negro vassal, so long as the hand of nature has distinguished him from his lord." 1" 1 We should not have occupied so great a space with these extracts, but as Mr. CONDEU quotes BROUGHAM in the ad- vocacy of free labour, we could not resist borrowing a word or two for "' tother side" from the same exalted authority. The third question, then, of the humanity of emancipation as affecting the negroes, involves in a great measure the fourth— we mean, as to the manner in which the unlicked, unfinished, Downing- street scheme will be received in the Colonies. Certain it is that the mind of the black is not capable of comprehending at once the nicely- shaded differ- ence between the characier and privileges of the slave and the apprentice ; all he will understand is, that he is free— that what he does he is to be paid for— that he can force the man who was bis master to give him money to pay for his freedom some time hence, and that, if he does not choose to contribute to that salutary end himself, his master must pay for him, while he disburses the twelfth- part of liis personal value annually upon his personal pleasures, the balls, the tea parties, and all the other gaieties which he is now in the habit of frequenting, dressed in his opera hat and white kid gloves, and unencumbered by any other dra pery_ for in the West Indian slave colonies it is not consi- dered necessary, as it is at St. James's, to direct the visitors to observe the decency of coming in shoes and stockings. As far as the mischief of insurrection goes, we fully anticipate it in all its horrors, because even supposing " the hand of nature had not distinguished the negro vassal from his lord," we defy the blacks in the West Indies to comprehend a scheme which evrn Mr. STANLEY himself neither under- stands nor can explain. With these considerations, upon which we could not re- frain from touching— the Meeting of to- morrow has nothing to do— the claims of the planters, the demands of the mort- gagees of West India stock and other property, amounting to upwards of thirty/ millions of money, must, for the mo- ment, ke postponed— The question to be discussed to- morrow it one not affected by private interests, not to be influenced by individual suffering or persecution— the ques- tions for to- morrow are national ones— Whether the British empire is to deprived of her Colonies— of her commerce, of her nursery for seamen— of the employment of her ca- pital, of a amount of revenue ?— These are the point* to be dismissed— points in which no private, no personal feelings niJMgle— It is upon these grounds the vast i » nd influential body awsemblsd to- monw must address the throne, and endeavour to awaken the MONARCH to the perils which threaten his possessions abroad— possessions of the value and loyalty of which His MAJESTY is aware from personal knowledge, and whose importance to the British empire have been invariably proclaimed, not only in the speeches and declarations of the very men, who, now to our misfortune, are the KING'S Ministers ; but by the recorded envy and jealousy which they have excited in the breasts of the foreign, but less dangerous enemies of our country. " EPSQM ~ RXCES7 The crowds of people at this national fair exceeded, on the Thursday and Friday, their usual extent, and the un- happy wretches unable to pay the house and window taxes— the groaning sufferers under oppression— mingled pell- mell with Dukes, Duchesses, and half the Lords of the— KING'S creation. The Duke of BRUNSWICK was there on the Derby day; but the Duke of ORLEANS, to whom Epsom perhaps is not a novelty, preferred the Manchester Rail- road, upon which his very Royal Highness— or whatever is the style of the Citizen KING'S son— will have travelled quite as fast as many of the winning horses on the Downs. As usual, the DERBY and OAKS were won by horses whose names were never mentioned— Dangerous ( Mr, SADLER'S), against whom 30 and 40 to 1 had been betted, won the former— and Sir MARK WOOD'S Vespa the latter, The sport was, however, good, the gaiety of the scene re- markable, the heat oppressive, the number of accidents small— the pickpockets numerous, the stand crowded— the refreshments good, and the rural infernals in full play. Huddled up in a glass- coach, some people say, was the majority of the Cabinet; the PREMIER, Mr. STANLEY ( who entertained them with the cream of his noble grand father's cellar), Sir JAMES GRAHAM, the ALTHORP, and one or two Subs. They entered into the gaieties, sub rosa and took and laid the odds for their Colleagues, who could not come, pretty freely; the following are said to be the horses upon which they risked their money. Lord GREY— Despot, Stately, and Dangerous. Lord JOHN RUSSELL— Little Casino, and The Fairy. The Right Hon. CHARLES GRANT— Temperance, Chateau- Margaux, and Pagoda. The Marquess of LANSDOWNE— Lucy, Alice, and Kit turns. Lord DURHAM ( ex)— Shoveller. Lord ALTHORP— Drover, brother to Error, Ambrosio, and f. by Waxy Pope. The Duke of RICHMOND— Revenge, by Fungus. Sir JAMES GRAHAM— The Whale, by Grampus. Mr. STANLEY— Revelry, for the Oaks, and Wrangler. The Earl of RIPON— Twatly and Weeper. Lord PALMERSTON— Fop, Whisker, Palmella, and Sultan out of Stays. Lord AUCKLAND— Funny. These were all we could collect. The CHANCELLOR sent no commission, nor did Lord CARLISLE— they left it to the " boys" to amuse themselves, which they did in great stjile At Ascot, we do not expect to see them unstarched, if we see them at all. THE following accounts of some Parochial Meetings in the metropolis may serve to open the eyes jof the interested a little wider, anil cannot fail to be agreeable to Lord GREY and Lord ALTHORP when they come home from Races * MEETING AT THE BRITISH COFFEE HOUSE. On Thursday night a General Meeting of the Central Com mittee, appointed by the united parishes of Westminster, to pro- mote in every legal and constitutional way the repeal of these taxes, was held at the British Coflee- house, in Cockspur- street, for the purpose of reporting the proceedings they had taken, and ascertaining whether, under existing circumstances, it was the wish of the vast body of householders they represented that they should continue their exertions or not. The Chair was taken by Mr. MORTIMER. The Report was produced by Mr. BINNS. It contained a detailed account of the whole of their proceedings from their being first con- stituted, in January last, up to the present time. They bad, it ap- peared. caused three thousand pamphlets, consisting of extracts from Dunn's Legal Diary, to be printed and distributed, for the purpose of illustrating the great inequality of the taxes on houses and windows, shewing how unjustly and oppressively they bear upon the middle and industrious classes. The Committee add, that, feel- ing tliat a distribution of the pamphlet before mentioned amongst Members of Parliament would be beneficial, it was determined that a copy ol such pamphlet should be put into the hands of each Mem- ber by one of the officers of their own House, and thereby render it impossible that any Hon. Member should have it in his power to say that he was unacquainted with the glaring inconsistencies and in- equalities of the burthens borne by the industrious and laborious tradesmen, compared with the occupiers of the mansions and resi- dences of the nobilityandgentry. On March 21, which was after their interview with Lord Altliorp, it was further resolved to distribute the pamphlet, with an address, free of expense, throughout England, Scotland, and Wales, calling upon the inhabitants of all the pro- vincial towns and cities to co- operate with them in impressing on their Members to use every exertion in their places in Parliament to support Sir J. Key's motion. The Report proceeds to detail what passed at the interviews with Lord Althorp, and concludes in the following words:—" While your Committee regrets that the relief proposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer is partial, and limited to one class only of those who endure the grievances, they yet in- dulge the hope that their labours have not been in vain ; and tliBt, from the strong and united expressions of public opinion which have been called forth by their exertions, they may look forwaid with confidence to obtain, at no distant period, the entire repeal o( these obnoxious taxes." Mr. ABBOTT inquired if any Gentleman could tell whether Sir F. Burdett was present on the night Sir Samuel Whalley's motion was made f The CHAIRMAN said he understood he was not. Mr. ABBOTT and several other Gentlemen strongly reprobated his conduct in thus absenting himself. Mr. BROWN observed that no 1 sts of the majority and minority on this question had appeared in the newspapers, and he thought it would not be amiss, in the event of none appearing in a day or two, for them to take the necessary measures for procuring the lists, and then print and circulate them throughout the country, thatall might know how their Members had voted on this vital question. It was observed in reply that there could be no doubt the lists would yet appear in the papers. Mr. BROWN then observed that he would suggest they should try new hands. There was nothing like fighting enemies with fresh forces. Suppose they were now to try their county Member Mr. Hume. Mr. Sergeant Spankie, who bad falsified his promises, had excused himself by saying that it was impossible after the financial statement was made up that they could remit two millions and a half of taxation ; but let them now instruct Mr. Hume to go and ask for the total repeal of the house tax only. Such a proposition might ease tiie consciences of certain very tender Members, and enable them to redeem at least a part of their promises. Mr. GREEN— Do you know whether the Chancellor still intends taking off half the house tax as regards shopkeepers? Mr. BROWN—//.? still says lie means to do so; hut he vacillates so often that no man can know what he really intends to do. Several Gentlemen expressed their concurrence in Mr. Brown's suggestions, and their opinion that the house tax was decidedly the rn. wi oppressive part of the assessed taxes, Mr. GREEN considered that if tbey attempted to urge the Chancel- lor to go further they would injure themselves. Already they had a promise of being relieved of one half the house tax. Mr. ABBOTT said if they stopped where they were on such aground they might justly be accused of selfishness. Mr. PACKMAN observed that, having pledged themselves to the- country at large, and having collected money from house to house in parts of Westminster without regard to whether the householder was a trader or not, they ought not to desert the cause till they ob- tained at least the total abolition of the house- tax. Very many Gentlemen expressed their concurrence in this senti- ment. Mr. EWEN expressed his concurrence in what Mr. Brown had said about trying new bands; hut he would go farther than that Gentle- man. and propose that a Deputation should wait on Sir R. Peel, and see whether he would do anything for them. They had tried the Whigs and found them wunting ; let them now try the Tories. A long conversation ensued, but nothing definite was done. All agreed it was necessary to persevere, but it was thought better before coming to any fixed Resolutions, to see what course the respective parishes would adopt, and they therefore adjourned for a week. Another Public Meeting of the inhabitants of the metropolis was. hinted at. ST. CLEMENT DANES. At seven o'clock on Thursday night the inhabitants of St Clement Danes, Strand, met in public vestry, for the purpose of receiving the Report of the Westminster Central Committee appointed to urge the repeal of these taxes, and of considering what further proceedings should now be taken. The Chair was taken by Mr. Churchwarden DUNN. Mr. BINNS read the Report, which, on the motion of Mr. WOOD- WARD, seconded by Mr. STONE, was, with one dissentient, ordered to be received and entered on the minutes. Mr. CORDELL expressed his opinion that in the present position of affairs it would be useless for them to continue embodied any longer as a Central Committee. It was clear nothing further would be done for them during the present Session. They had already made a strong display of what the public feeling was on the subject of these taxes, and he felt convinced in his own mind that although the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer refused to give any distinct pledge, yet he had stated that if he continued in office he would in his next Budget move the total repeal of these hated taxes. Mr. Churchwarden Hon, perfectly concurred with the last speaker. Any further agitation of the subject would only embarrass Ministers. —( Here there were a few hisses, mixed with cries of " They deserve to be embarrassed.") At the suggestion of Mr. CORDELL it was acrreed to enter into a subscription to defray their portion of the outstanding expences in- curred by the Centra) Committee, and, as every shopkeeper was benefited by their exertions in having obtained the remission of one- half the house tax, to call on everyone throughout the parish. It was agreed to form a Committee of seven, with power to draw up a string of resolutions, which are to be submitted to a vestry to be held next week. A vote of censure upon Sir F. Burdett for not being present to vote for Sir S. Whalley's motion on Tuesday night was also agreed to. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting sepa- rated. ST. ANDREW'S, HOLBORN. On Thursday a General Meeting was held of the Inhabitants of St. Andrew's, Holborn, and St. George the Martyr's, at the workhouse. Gray's Inn- lane, to receive the Report from the Westminster Central Committee, and to consider what course they should adopt for obtaining by legal means the repeal of these taxes. W. TOOKE, Esq. in the Chair. The Report was read. The important parts of its contents have been already published. Mr. WHITE moved, " That this meeting deeply laments the deter- mination of his Majesty's Government with reference to the house and window taxes, by which it appears they are not inclined to fulfil the pledges of former Ministers, nor their own implied intentions to re- lieve the country from these intolerable imposts." He would advise them, when the tax- gatherer came, to say, " I ought not, I cannot, I will not pay."—( Cheers.)— If anything of this kind was to be done it must be done simultaneously all over the kingdom, and he should like to know, then, what power could draw the money out of their pockets.—( Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN begged to call their attention to the fact that there was nothing of intimidation in the Resolution, and that the object for which they were assembled was a legal one, and would be best obtained by legal means. It was to reclaim a Ministry who had abandoned their duty. Mr. SOMERSGILL seconded the motion. Resolutions were afterwards moved that the Meeting feel it requi- site to repeat that in their endeavours to accomplish the abolition of the house and window taxes they wish Ministers to have every means of carrying on the Government, by the reduction of sinecures and salaries; and that in advocating the repeal of these taxes they bad no desire for the introduction of a property tax. [ t was alio agreed that they should not relax in their exertions till they obtained the repeal of these taxes. An Address to the KING praying His MAJESTY to dismiss his pre- sent Ministers was adopted, and after thanks had been voted to the Hon. Chairman the Meeting broke up. Similar Meetings are in progress in all the London pa- rishes. And at the large manufacturing towns the cry for the removal of the Whigs is loud and general. At Man- chester the Address for their removal was carried on the anniversary of the day upon which a vote of admiration of their talents and virtues was passed. Lord ALTHORP is burnt in effigy at Kettering, and SPRING RICE in Cam- bridge ; in short, no demonstrations are wanting on the part of the people to prove their hatred and contempt of the Ministers, whose great security of keeping their places is founded on the unwillingness of everybody of character or respectability to step into their shoes. INQUEST ON R. CULLEY. The Inquest was resumed on Monday. Among the witnesses was Mr. THOMAS, the Inspector. It appeared from bis evidence that Mr. STALLWOOD'S exclamations from his balcony against the Pulice, tended to irritate the populace against them. MARY HAMILTON, a servant at the Magpie and Stump, Fetter- lane, deposed that while she was talking to CULLEY ( who was persuading her to go away) a man rushed from the crowd towards CULLEY, with an instrument in his hand like a steel, and said. " I shall do for the ." She ran off im- mediately, and saw no blow struck. She thought xhe should not know the man again ; he was a pale- faced man with a long nose. A person of the name of HEWETT was next examined ; he had picked up CULLEY after he fell. On bis return home, he met an elderly man, who after remarking that the witness had picked up CULLEY, said he knew who stabbed him. This witness had not the presence of mind to ask the man's name and address, but the description lie gave of him answered to that which the girl gave of the man who ran up to CULLEY.— Several Policemen spoke to stones, & c. being thrown by the mob, several of which struck them. Some of the Jury seemed very desirous of ascertaining Lord MEL- BOURNE'S orders to the police, observing that they ought to know what reason there was for assembling 1700 policemen to put the meeting down, as this bad caused all the mischief.— After the evi- dence had been gone through, the Coroner charged the Jury. After alluding to MARY HAMILTON'S evidence, he asked, could tbey doubt that the man was murdered, and that by one of a body of persons who came armed as Englishmen do not usually come to a public meeting? There could be no doubt that there was wilful murder committed by some person or persons unknown.— The Jury retired about seven o'clock, and in about half an hour it was reported that they bad agreed to a verdict condemning the police, but that one was of a different opinion. A communication was made to the Coroner, about^ half- past eight, that there was no likelihood of their agreeing. The Coroner said they would agree when they became a little more hungry ; but the jury several times sent a similar communication, and with no better success. At half- past nine o'clock the Jury returned, and the Foreman informed the Coroner that they had agreed upon their verdict, which he read in the following terms:— " We find a verdict of Justifiable Homicide on these grounds: that no Riot Act was read, nor any proclamation advising the people to disperse; that the Government did not take the proper precautions to prevent the meeting from assembling, and that the conduct of the police was ferocious, brutal, and unprovoked by the people; and we moreover express our anxious hope that the Government will in future take better precautions to prevent the recurrence of such JOHN BULL: May; 26. disgraceful transactions in the metropolis."—( Loud cheering in the room.) In the first instance the Coroner refused to receive this verdict, as unwarranted by the evidence, hut after a long altercation between him and the Jury, he recorded it, at the same time saying, " I con- sider this verdict disgraceful to you." Hereupon a number of persons in the room, which was crowded to excess, exclaimed " Bravo Jurors ; you have done your duty nobly, the country is indebted to you !" which was followed by the most vociferous cheering in the room, re- echoed with prodigious vehemence by the crowds outside. As the Jury withdrew, numbers of persons pressed forward and shook each of them eagerly by the hand. In the streets, as they passed, they were cheered by name, but the police were hooted.— It was some time after eleven o'clock when the proceedings terminated. All this is extremely fine and extremely ridiculous— as a sign of the times it may serve to shew Lord GREY the real character and disposition of his quondam friends— it may also let him and his Lord- ship's betters see the course the current is taking— that the KING cropping system is again advocated, although so loyally opposed by Mr. O'CONNELL at Birmingham— and that an English Jury is found to return a verdict of " Justifiable Homicide" against a mob of traitors, armed with the weapons of assassination, assembled trea- sonably for the purpose of founding a National Convention in de- fiance of the Law and the Constitution, who murder the police in the execution of their duty. The formation of this Jury should be made a subject of investiga- tion. They were summoned at the discretion of a common constable. Three of their body, it is known, are Members of Political Unions— perhaps the constable, who collected them, is a fourth. Who, and what the Mr. STALLWOOD is, who figured away as an evidence before them, we last week stated ; and we are obliged to the Times for publishing another document on Monday, by which some more traits of excellence in that patriot's character are brought to light. The fools, who were on the Jury, and who fancied themselves doing something extremely knavish, are much too insignificant for notice : l> ut, as Mr. STALLWOOD has been a Magistrate, so made by Lord Chancellor BROUGHAM, it may neither be useless nor unentertaining for the reader to enst bis eye over the following official paper relating to that once tVorshipful Justice of the Peace :— " Middlesex.— These are to certify, that at the general quarter sessions of the peace of onr late Lord King George IV., holden in and for the county of Middlesex, at the Sessions- house for the said - county, by adjournment, on Monday, the 22( 1 clay of October, in the second year ofthe reign of our late Sovereign Lord George IV., by the grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire- land, Kinu, Defender of the Faith, Nathaniel Stallwood. lite of the parish of St. Pancras, in said county, labourer, Thomas Smith and J. Sullivan, late of the same parish, labourers, were, according to due form of law, severally tried and convicted on an indictment against them for assaulting, beatinu-, and wounding John Jones, the younger, on the 10th day of July, 1821; and these are further to certify, that the said Nathaniel Stallwood, Thomas Smith, and Jeremiah Sullivan, were then and there for the said offence, by the said Court, sentenced as follows— that is to say, the said Nathaniel Stallwood to pay a fine of 201., with liberty to speak to the prosecutor, which fine was after- wards, at the same sessions, remitted to Is. The said Thomas Smith to pay a fine of 6s. 8d.; and the said Jeremiah Sullivan to be impri- soned in the House of Correction, at Clerkenwell, in this county, for one month. Dated the 12th day of May. 1831. " H. C. SELBY, Clerk ofthe Peace." This Mr. NATHANIEL STALLWOOD being the eloquent speechifier b fore the Inquest, here styled LABOURER, and having been raised to the Bench of County Magistrates by the present LORD CHANCELLOR, it is but just to say, that he was speedily removed from the Commission ; we should, however, have supposed if a feeling for himself had not kept such a person in the subdued state most becoming to him, care and respect for Lord BROUGHAM'S persona! character and high office would have hindered him from risking the exposure of his most extraordinary elevation and his most remarkable expulsion. ( From the Clonmel Advertiser.) We understand that the parishioners of Caher having applied to the Earl of GLENGALL for assistance to enlarge their chapel, they received the following reply through the parish priest, the Rev. Mr. ' TOBIN:— " London, May 13,1833. " Dear Sir— I have received your letter requesting me, at the de- sire of your parishioners, to subscribe for the alteration ofthe chapel of Caher. " I begtoobserve that I should at all times feel a sincere pleasure in assisting with my mite the building of any place of worship for any Christian community. " But, ii\ the present case, I do feel it incumbent on me to express my disgust and contempt at the line of conduct it has for some time pleased many of your parishioners to pursue. They have endea- voured to swell themselves out into petty demagogues and clumsy agitators— to mislead and delude the peasantry by the senseless trash they have been in the habit o( blundering forth at their meetings, trying to convert honest farmers into knaves and politicians. " I feel less hesitation in declining to contribute to this work, from having observed the promptitude with which these parishioners have usually subscribed to the funds for promoting dissension and sedition. To you, Sir, personally, 1 beg to express my sincere respect for your character; for, although I did see your name attached to violent resolutions lately, I am induced to believe that you were forced to assent to them by the exercise of the bludgeon system upheld by these Shibeen Statesmen.— I remain, dear Sir, yours very truly, " Rev. Mr. Tobin, P. P.. Caher. " GLENGALL." THE provincial patriots keep pace with the metropolitans. The Brighton Gazette of Thursday gives the following account of a meeting held in Sussex, to catechise, and, if necessary, chastise the Honourable Members for one of the districts of that smiling county, which we think may amuse OUT readers ; we therefore borrow it, with " much thanks" to the involuntary lender. " The Whigs must begin to find that they have not fallen among roses— or, at least, that roses are not without thorns. Twelve months ago they had the mob at their back— the Political Unions tossed oil' their half- pints of * heavy- wet' to Lord GREY and HARRY BROUGHAM — hut times have changed. The Whigs soon found their friends, the Radicals, too fond— a coolness ensued— the Whigs discovered that the only real friends ofthe Constitution were the very men whom themselves bad maligned for years, and that if revolution was to be avoided, it could only be done by taking the advice of those they had bespattered and persecuted, and by separating with all the haste that prudence would permit from their quondam allies. Their eyes were opened— and they saw that they were naked. The Irish Coer- cion Bill severed from thern the Radicals ot Ireland ; about forty things, none in itself so important as the Coercion Bill, have effected the same thing in regard to the English Radicals ; and the affair in Coldbath- fields gave a coup de giace to the hollow friendship. We may expect, therefore, soon to see the Radicals in all parts of the kingdom attacking the Whig Representatives with fury. Westmin- ster began tlie quarrel by obsting Sir JOHN CAM HOBHOUSE; South- wark followed in the wake ; the Tower Hamlets imitated the exam- ple ; and another specimen ofthe spirit thatis abroad was exhibited W this county on Thursday last at Mayfield. ." The electors of that district were called together by advertisement to express their opinion ot the proceedings of the Parliament; when a letter was read from Mr. CURTEIS, stating that he voted for the repeal of half the Malt Tax, and excusing his absence from the subsequent division, on the score of illness. ' If I had been there,' says Mr. CURTEIS. ' I should. 1 presume, have voted according to my previous vote,' What an odd phrase ,' ' I presume I should have voted according to my former vote.' Why, the Hon. Gentleman must have known, without presuming at all upon the matter, whether he should have so voted or not. This, however, Mayfield people permitted to pass. Mr. PAYNE, one of the leaders of the meeting, is a professed Radical, and might not wish to say anything harsh of a gentleman whotn he perhaps expects to fall from Whiggism to Radi calism with as much ease as from Toryism to Whiggery. A letter was also read from Mr. C. CAVENDISH, in which he states— "' I was present in the House on the 30tb of April, and voted with Minislers, to rescind the pi evious resolution for reducing the duty ou malt; my object in BO doing was to avoid the two great evils, that, in my opinion, must have followed the deleat of Ministers on thai occasion, namely, their immediate resignation, and the imposition of an income tax, and I felt a full confidence that the opinions of my constituents, on both these points, would be in unison with my own, and that they woud consider the apparent boon too dearly bought on the terms I have referred to.' " By way of commentaiy upon this text, we shall add one of the resolutions agreed to bv the Meeting. " * Resolved. 2dly— That the proceedings of the House of Commons on the Malt Tax fully justify this Meeting in expressing, which it does most unequivocally, their dissatisfaction witit the present Par- liament. The wishes of the country were most decidedly expressed for the total repeal of tliis tax ; and yet the House of Commons, after having, in compliance with their wishes, voted tor its partial aboli- tion, rescinded that vote because Ministers said they should feel compelled to introduce a more obnoxious tax, or to resign. If the duty of Parliament be only to record and pass into laws the edicts of Ministers, the agitation " into which the country was thrown to pro- cure Reform might well have been spared.' " Here, then, we see that so far as the opinion of the electors pre sent at this meeting goes, there is little '• unison' between them and Mr. CAVENDISH. Another resolution is as follows :— " ' That it is much to be lamented that the Hon. C. C. Cavendish should have been induced to give his vote on the 30th of April for the continuance of the duty on malt, and that a copy of the resolu tions of this meeting be forwarded to him.' " This is as nearly a direct censure on Mr. CAVENDISH as possible ; another such a vote, and the Radicals will turn upon a Cavendish himself. Indeed it is impossible not to see that a breach must ine- vitably take place erelong. The Movement party are growing im- patient; and a time must come when a clear line must be drawn between those who seek revolution and those who are determined to maintain the Constitution— defend the rights of property— and put down sedition and treason, under whatever aspect they may appear. We again call upon the Government to contract the suffrage to 201. voters. They will ultimately have to contest for supremacy with the Destructives ; and it will be infinitely betterto fight the battle on this point than on any other. If the franchise continue as at present, that battle must Ire fought within the walls of the Constitution ; by taking the step which we advise, the contest will be, as it ought to be— for they seek the destruction of the citadel itself— with those beyond the walls. BARBADOS. That the people of this island are not again to be blessed in the administration ofthe Government by Sir JAMES LYON, is a subject of deep and universal regret. Such a loss must be felt in every part of the island, in every family.— We cannot imagine a single exception, never in the recollection of any one since the day when death snatched from an admiring country the good Lord HOWE, one hundred years ago, has any governor so firmly entrenched himself on the affections of the people.— His Excellency's exceedingly mild and gracious deportment— his judicious exercise of his high authority, his munifi- cent liberality particularly at the time of great calamity, when he offered to relinquish his salary to meet the exigencies of the island, and nobly subscribed five hundred pounds to the relief of the sufferers. His affectionate sympathy with the feelings ofall whose difficulties or distress came to his knowledge— and most especially his marked attention to the duties of religion— these are striking traits in the character of a governor. But we should feel the utter inadequacy of language to do justice to the character of Sir JAMES LYON, if the report he correct, which we find prevailed in England, that his Excellency had lost the Government ofthis island in consequence of his manly refusal to be the bearer of any despatches, or the organ of any instructions from the Colonial Office, which were likely to ' nsult the feelings of the people he governed, or to add to the injuries which they have already received from the malign influence of a detestable faction in the mother country. If that be the case, then, there is no truth in the report of Sir JAMES going out to Jamaica. It was onr intention to recommend a public meeting to express the sense which the people ofthis Island entertain of Sir JAMES'S dis- tinguished merits, but we are happy to find that such a meeting is called in an advertisement, signed by several of our leading and in- fluential characters. We indulge the hope that it will be the most numerous and respectable meeting ever held in this island. PEMICAN. Sip ROBERT HERON on Wednesday night gave notice of a motion for the 13th of next month to bring in a Bill to prevent the necessity of a Member holding an office under the Crown vacating his seat in Parliament upon a change of office !— This is the bill of which we long since gave notice— if it should pass, it can only have reference to the next Parliament. The electors have Bent representatives to the present Parliament shackled with the usual check, it would be extremely unfair to remove it without giving the voters fair warning. The Scottish General Assembly opened on Thursday, before Lord BELHAVEN, his Majesty's Lord Chief Commissioner, with the cus- tomary formalities. His Grace's levee was very numerously at- tended. The Rev. Dr. STIRLING, of Craigie, was elected Moderator, on the motion of Dr. CHALMERS and Principal MACFARLANE. His Majesty's annual donation of 2,0001. for promoting religious educa- tion in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, was announced. No other business was done that day. Sir JOHN NICHOLL, Judge of'the Arches and Prerogative Courts, has been appointed Judge ofthe Admiralty Court in the room ofthe late Sir C. ROBINSON.— Sir JOHN now holds three Judgeships toge- ther— for this Government have discovered a precedent. Count HECTOR de LUCCHESI PALLI, the reputed husband of the Duchess de BERRI, was among the persons who accompanied their SICILIAN MAJESTIES to Paris in the year 1829. When pro- ceeding from Naples to the Hague he stopped at Massa, where the Duchess of BERRI was then residing. The Duchess entrusted him with several confidential missions. He is about twenty- eight years of age, a spirited and well informed man, much attached to the Royal House of Naples. He is the nephew of Count ALEXANDRE de LUCCHESI PALLI, formerly Ambassador from Naples at Madrid, and brother to the Duchess of MONTELEONE, the consort of the most distinguished nobleman in the Two Sicilies. The Prince de CAMPO FRANCO, father of the Count, is Grand Chancellor of the kingdom of Sicily, and Prime Minister of the Viceroyalty at Palermo. The family of LUCCHESI is one ofthe most ancient and illustrious in Italy, and is said to have derived its origin from the ancient Sove- reign Dukes of Benevento.— Gazette de France. On Tuesday last a bill of indictment, preferred by the parochial authorities of St. Mary's, Whitechanel. was found by the Middlesex Grand Jury against Mr. Alderman SCALES, for refusing to serve the office of overseer of the poor for that parish, to which office he was appointed on Easter Monday last, by the united voices of the pa- rishioners. The case will be tried during the next Sessions. Mr. SCALES claims exemption on trie ground of being an Alderman of the city of London, and the affair is at present under the serious consideration of the Gentlemen of the Long Robe. The Comptroller- General of the Coast Guard has ordered that, the Lieutenants of the Navy employed in that service as chief officers should assemble their respective crews every day, and read to them their journals, in order to satisfy them that their Lieutenants have made no false entries.— This seems something new, that officers of the navy should be ordered to explain to the crews under their command, that they have not been guilty of base and ungentlemaal y conduct. It is generally understood in the City, that the Directors of the Bank of England, in consequence of having within the last day or two come to a final arrangement with Ministers, respecting the renewal of the Charter of that establishment, intend calling a general Meeting ofthe Proprietors in the course of the week, to lay before them the particulars of the arrangements referred to. The very mooting of the East and West India questions has a'ready produced the most afflicting consequences. The East Ind'u \ Company, in particular, the beat customers of many of our inanu- ! factoring interests, have not only determined to give no further- orders, but have, wherever they C3uld, actually withdrawn those which had been given.. The Eton Regatta, which has for many years been on the 4th of June, the birthday of GB9RGE the Third, will this year takaplace on Monday, June X This arrangement has'been made in consequence of their MAJESTIES and suite having signified their intention of being present, and the commencement of Ascot Races interfering on the 4th. A few days since a considerable portion of the embankment of the Regent's Canal, which forms the gardens of the Villas on South Bank,. Regent's Park, gave- way and fell into the water, carrying with it trees, plantations, summer- houses, palings, & c. ; fortunately no persons were on the spot at the time. The occurrence took place in the night, and was anaccompanied by any noise. The surprise of the inhabitants may be imagined, when, on getting up on the following morning, they discovered that one- half of their gardens had disappeared. DUTY ON SOAP.— It fs not generally known that the reduction of the duty on soap will not amount to Ijd. per pound, which the oublic would inter from the way it was announced by Lord ALTHOSP. At present the soap- maker is charged a duty of 3tf. per pound, but from this he receives an allowance of one- tenth to cover the loss in manu- facture by waste, scrapings, inlake, & c. and this allowance is- to be withdrawn at the reduced rate of duty. The reduction, therefore, barely amounts to l} d. per pound, and the public can only benefit by it in that proportion from the first day of next month— Glasg. Herald. On Monday, the 14th of May, last year, in consequence of the present Ministers having resigned, a public meeting was held at Manchester to petition his Majesty to take back his late Ministers, and to pass the Reform Bill. On that day twelve months, namely, on Monday the 13th inst. another public meeting was held, attended by many of the same parties, to petition the King to dismiss these Ministers, on the ground of their having forfeited the confidence- of the people. A Deputation from the Committee who are superintending the subscription for erecting almshouses in honourof the passing of the Reform Bill, waited upon the Court of Common Council whrch wa » held on Tuesday, and were heard at the bar, praying that the City would give them a piece of the Corporation land to build almshouses upon. Mr. STEVENS, of Bishopsgate ( for many years one of the leading City Reformers), strongly expressed his disappoinment at the working of the Reform Act. If he could have foreseen how little benefit his fellow- citizens would have derived from the mea- sure, and that it would have merely strengthened the hands of our Whig Government, it should not have had his most anxious support. The people_ had got the Bill, but nothing but the Bill. They had fondly anticipated that it would work as a giant: but bitter experi- ence had shown them it was only a pigmy. Mr. PEARSON said the first question was, had the City any land which it was in their power touive? If nst, the petition must necessarily lay upon the table. He was answered they certainly had no land; and the application therefore fell to the ground. At the Court of Common Council, held on Tuesday, Mr. PEARSON asked Mr. Sheriff HUMPHERY whether he, as the principal Conser- vator of the Peace for the county of Middlesex, had received any notice regarding the Convention Meeting from Lord MELGOURNE? The Sheriff replied none whatever. Th e Brighton Gazette says—" The following placard ( a printed one) is exhibited in a house at the north part ofthis town, which is occupied, we understand, by the foreman of Messrs. LAMBERT, the builders:—' To State paupers, tax collectors, & c., beware of steel traps and spring guns on these premises.' Mes. rs, LAMBERT are contractors for certain works done for the Commissioners of Brigh- ton :— we recommend that body to remember that' passive reaistancej to local taxation, us well as to general taxation, has already com- menced at Birmingham." The scaftoldmen working in Chatham dock- yard, and whose pay does not exceed fifteen shillings per week, have, by a recent order, had one halfpenny per hour taken off' for all extra hours they may he employed. They are to be paid twopence- halfpenny per hour instead of threepence, as heretofore. We are also informed upon authority we do not question that the Captain Superintendent of Sheerness dock- yard has received an addition to bis former salary of one hundred pounds per annum.— Kentish Gazette. The situation of Assistant Timber Converter in bis MAJESTY'S dock- yard at Sheerness is abolished, and Mr. GREET removed until some opening shall occur for his re- appointment.— In the mean time Mr. GREET is left to starve. On Monday evening last a large concourse of persons paraded the streets of this town with an effigy of Mr. SPRING RICE, one of our Members. It was preceded by one or two torches and a placard, on which was written, '• No Assessed Taxes." The worthy liepre-• sentative was then taken upon Parker's Piece, and burnt amidst loud cheers.— Cambridge Chronicle. A mis statement has appeared in some of the newspapers respect- ing the office of Receiver of the Droits ofthe Admiralty, held by the late Sir GEORGE HAMPSON. For the information of the public, as well as in justice to Sir GEORGE HAMPSON'S character and to the feelings of his friends, to whom the misrepresentation is calculated togive pain, it should be rectified. The office, which is said to have been a sinecure, producing emoluments amounting to 1.5001. per annum, was not a sinecure. Its duties were discharged by Sir GEORGB HAMPSON in person, until about six months ago, when he wholly resigned it. The salary was a fixed one, amounting to 3001. per annum; there were no fees or other emoluments attached to it, and out of this salary some deduction was made for a clerk who was necessarily employed in the business of the office. BRISTOL RIOTS.— The Compensation Claims, under the latedisas- trous riots are now in course of payment at St. Peter's Hospital.— Upwards of 20,0001. has been paid to the sufferers, who, we hope, will now lose no time in re- erecting the buildings in Queen square. The Corporation, we understand, have behaved most liberally, having granted leases for twenty- one years gratuitously. Doctor HENM'S, who was shot by Sir JOHN JKFFCOTT in a duel at Exeter, is dead. The Coroner's Inquest have returned a verdict of IVitful Murder against the seconds— a somewhat, curious course, as there appears no legal evidence bow the deceased came by his death. It is extremely painful that gentlemen, for doing what onegentleman could scarcely refuse to another in the way of attending him upon such an occasion, should be subject to an irksome imprisonment. It is said that Government have sent out a cutter to catch Sir JOHN JEFFCOTT, who sailed in the Britomart oil Sunday; but as the road to Sierra Leone is not distinctly marked out on the sea by lamps or milestones, the chances are, that if such is the case the cutter will not find her. If it is intended to punish Sir JOHN for his misfortune in killing a fellow- creature in vindication of his honour and charac- ter, Government can do nothing much worse to him, than let him get to his destination quietly We have letters from Swan River of as late a date as January 31. The settlement had been in great want of provisions, hut the arrival of several ships at that date had relieved it. There can be no doubt but that these occasional scarcities of food arise from want of energy on the part of the settlers, who all seem loudly to complain that Government does not assist them. Whence these scarcities arise, or whether this neglect really exists, we, of course, cannot eay. REMOVAL OF ASSIZES.— The Act of Parliament, passed on the 17th of last month, empowering His MAJESTY, by and with the ad- vice of his Most Honourable Privy Council, to appoint convenient places for the holding of Assizes in England and Wales, is of im- portance. By the first four clauses, the Acts 6th and 11th of Richard II., regulating the holding of Assizes, are repealed. The. fifth clause empowers the Privy Council from time to time to order and direct at what place or places, in any county in England or Wales, the Assizes for such county shall he holden. The sixth and last clause further empowers His Majesty's Privy Council to divide counties, and authorises the holding of Assizes at more than one place in any county, and to make such rules and regulations for the removal or division of Courts of Assize, accommodation of pri- soners. & c.. as the case may require. PROTESTANT EMIGRATION.— The number of Protestants, who have emigrated Irom Ireland during the last few years, is as follows ;— In 1829. 12.00.1; in 1830. 21.000; in 1831. 29.500; in 1832. 31.500; making a rota! of 94.000 during the short space of four years!— Dublin University Magazine. SANDHURST.— The usual half yearly public examinations of the Officers and Gentlemen Cadets studying ar. the Royal Military Col- lege. took place on Thursday. Friday, and Saturday, the 16th, 17th, and 18th instant. At the close of the examinations, the following Officers were presented with cerlifieates- of qnaliticn'inn :— Capt. R. It. Run LEY, 60th Regiment; Capt. R. W, HUEY, 6$ tli Regiment.— May 26. JOHN BULL: 16 7 And the following Gentlemen Cadets, whs had completed their qualifictftions for commissions, were recommended to the General Commanding- in Chief ! or appointment to ensigncies in the. line, without purchase:;— D. W. P. LABALMONMEKE, H. B. F, DTCKINSON, R. W M'L. FRASER. F. J. THOMAS, H. BRFDGES, VV. E. JAMES, ft, W. HOPKINS, W. WALKER, W. H. H. ANDERSON, C. B. M'CARTY, S. B. HAMILTOW, H. R. SET . HOUR, F. 11. MEIN, and P. PYNEK.— By the result of the examinations, above 40 other young gentlemen were declared to have made various steps towards qualifying them- selves for commissions, in those branches of the mathematics which areapplicableto military purposes; in permanent and field fortifica- tion, and the attack and defence of places; in Latin, and general history; and in the modern languages. And sixteen have also, during the half year, completed the course of professional education in military surveying, and twenty- two in the actual construction of entrenchments and saps in the field. ROYAL'N AVAL SCHOOL.— Tbisinfantbut important institution having been commenced, by opening Alfred House, CanVberwell. for the reception of 150 pupils, the sons of living and deceased officers, it becomes a matter of personal interest to all ranks of the service to lend their aid in diffusing its benefits to the extent proposed in the original prospectus. The "' Great Meeting at Birmingham," convened by the_ great Brummagem Hampden. Mr. T. ATTWOOD, to address the KING to remove his present Ministers, was held on Monday. A few years ago. this meeting would have been considered seditious, if not trea- sonable'; but sedition and treason are out of fashion now. It is said, there were from seventy to eighty thousand persons assembled, a large proporvion of whom were women and children in their holiday dresses. They came on the ground in bodies, a in militaire, with banners flying, hearing various inscriptions. When the different Unions had taken up their positions, a bugle sounded, to command attention, and at the same moment a part of the hustings gave way, in order to fix it. When this little affair was adjusted, the speechify- ing be^ aii, on the part of Mr. THOMAS ArrwooDand Mr. O'CONNELL, who were the two orators of the day. The latter, in the course of his speech, called Lord BROUGHAM •' a great humbug," which was pro- digiously cheered. Among the resolutions which were passed, was one, to petition his MAJESTY that be would be graciously pleased to dismiss his present Ministers, which was unanimously agreed to. Two petitions to the House of Commons were also agreed to— the one setting forth the agricultural and manufacturing distress, the other calling for a large red- action of taxation. The meeting sepa- rated peaceably. ANTI- MALTHUSIAN.— On Friday, the 3d inst., tbe wife of JOSHUA Norton, tailor, of Hunslet- iane, in this town, was delivered of her twenty- fifth child, though only forty- three years of age. She was married before she was sixteen years old. and had borne four children before she had completed her twentieth year. Mr. NORTON'S mother bad eighteen children, many of them stiil living, and his grandmother had twenty- four children, seven of whom still survive ; and their united ages amount to 515 years.— Leeds Intelligencer. EXPEDITIOUS COACH TRAVELLING.— An instance of speed in tra- velling, perhaps the most remarkable upon record, was performed on the 1st instant,'. by L'Hiromlelle, Cheltenham, Shrewsbury, and Liverpool coach. It left Birkenhead Ferry ( Liverpool) at five minutes before six in the morning, and arrived at tin' Plough Inn, Cheltenham, at thirty- four minutes past three in the afternoon, having accomplished a distance of 13H miles in the incredible short period of nine hours and thirty- nine minutes ! The name by which this Frenchified vehicle is known by the coachmen on the road, is the Iron Devil, which is as near as they get to Hirondelle. COIVES, MAY 18.— At a general meeting of the members of the Yacht Club, held at the Thatched House Tavern. St. James's street, London, on Saturday, the 11th inst.,— the Earl of BELFAST. Vice Commodore, in the Chair, the undermentioned Noblemen and Gen tlenn n were elected members of the Club ;— Marquis of Waterford. Gem schooner, 125 tons ; Viscount Exmouth. Ganymede cutter. 69 do; Lord Newborough, Sapphire cutter, 69 do; Hon. Augustus Craven. Menai cutter, 175 do. ; Rev. Leveson Lane. Turquoise cutter. 77 do ; E. B. Beaumont. Esq. Zephyr cutter, 55 do ; Henry Robinson, Esq. jun. Will- o- the- Wisp cutler, 55 do.— And the following were elected Honorary Members ;— Captains John Town- fthend. Wm. Dawson. Edward Pursell. P. H. Bridges, John Appleby, Geo. Rodney Munday, James Rd. Booth, H. Layton, and Chas. Bell, R. N. THE REV. DRT^ HEPHERD, We readily give a place to the following, as, indeed, it is pur duty to do, upon the " audi alteram''' principle. We have no feeling either way on the subject; and if we either had received, or, having received, had not mislaid, Dr. SHEPHERD'S letter, it should have appeared before :— TO JOHN BULL. April 23, 1833. Sir,— From the manifold inconsistencies and misrepresentations which have distinguished the correspondence of my anonymous calumniator, I am not surprised at his still wishing to conceal his name : and had he not availed himself of some misapprehensions in your article, I should have awaited in s; lence the result of my appeals for a public enquiry. But after what has appeared in your columns of tbe 15th, if I were to remain silent any longer, an opinion of my inability to rebut the charges contained in the late scurrilous attack might gain ground ; and hence the solicited exertions of those, who have the power and the will to forward a public enquiry into the facts alledged, might by such an erroneous persuasion be paralysed, aud the neglect com- plained of continue to remain a disgrace to the country as a Christian nation. When I supported Mr. POYNDER'S complaint " that there were no Chaplains with the armies in India while on active service," ( and not one iota of which has been disproved), I did it on public grounds ; and I carefully and studiously avoided even a distant hint to any private claims, though repeatedly twitted and taunted with sarcastic ihuendos as to the cause, feelings. & c. & c., by my anonymous oppo- nent, when he found that he could not, by any fair and honourable means, make an impression on THE TRUTH of my statements. In his letter of Feb. 19th, adverting to the period 1805. he writes, " weappreciate the ingenuity with which he has excluded this period from his complaint;" and he now attacks what he calls my logic, on the ground of a lesal opinion of Mr. JACKSON'S relative to what took place PREVIOUSLY to 1805, the very period he had " appreciated my ingenuity for excluding"— and this, though tbe article was not inserted by me, nor by my authority, nor in accordance with my wish. Indeed, if the man lamented the insertion, fearful that some unprincipled scribbler would, frem his hiding place, take advantage of some inac- curacies in your statement, twisting and turning them to his own malevolent construction, not only in reference to my conduct and • character, but to the disadvantage of the cause, which, on public grounds alone, I had fearlessly and strenuously advocated. The inference and conclusion drawn by him in respect to my logic, & e.,. is too contemptible for notice— atolum imbeUi sine ictu ; but his attack on what he insidiously terms my " discretion," I feel myself • called on to repel, and which I do with the warm indignation of an honourable mind. The insertion of an article in your Paper of tbe8th, and which I taave already observed was not my act, he calls, " my proclaiming to tbe world that the Court of Directors thought my complaint ground- less that Bishop HEBER would not make me an archdeacon, and that the Archbishop of Canterbury would not answer my letters." And thus does he endeavour to traduce the character of him whose conduct his ( his Excellency's) observation, he could speak with decided confi- dence." However, Sir, supposing THAT the Court had so thought, and would not investigate iu consequence of an explanatory letter hav- ing been returned after a retention of six weeks without being sub- mitted to tbe Court— THAT Bishop HEBER had acted from his own feelings, uninfluenced " by the recommendations of those whose wishes he was bound to consult"— and THAT the late Archbishop had not answered my letters, which is a false and libellous assumption, no matter from whom proceeding or by whom believed— is it reason- able? it it just? is it in accordance with the details of equity, the feelings of benevolence, or the precepts of religion, that your anony- mous correspondent should attach disgrace to me ? No. Mr. Editor, whatever disgrace there may be in all such cases will attach to the oppressors, not the oppressed; it will, in fair account, rest on those jvho persecute unjustly, not on those who suffer unjust persecution, Uilt, Sir, the letter of your snonyanous Correependent is replete with grossly perverted statements, and I hope you will, as at) act of justice - to an individual, who in the honest discharge of an important duty has been unwarrantably assailed, allow a place in your Paper for the insertion of this letter. I do here affirm the truth of all that I have advanced ; I will not retract one iota. I again publicly defy yoRr anonymous Correspondent to controvert the statement I have made, and let liim now come forward in propria persona, as he ex- presses himself, if he be not a stranger to every manly feeling ; and if his nerves require bracing, let the stimulating language of one of ' our poets, with a slight alteration, be sounded in his ears.— " The brave do never shun tbe light. Just are their thoughts, and open are their tempers ; Firm are they found in the fair face of day, And heav'n and men are judges of their actions." I am, Siiy vour obedient Servant. 205, Regent- street. H. SHEPHERD. Yt) JOHNBULL. Trengwainton, Penzance, May 21, 1833. SIR— As you had the goodness to insert my former com- munication in your valuable paper, I take the liberty of furnishing you with my own individual case; supposing Lord ALTHORP'S generous offer of 15 millions should be acceded to by the planters, as a full, sufficient, and satisfac- tory remuneration for all risks of destruction of property, worth 150 millions, or of a diminution of income, which events may soon produce; especially when we see the new field which presents itself in India. And be assured, Sir, that whatever deficiency of produce, revenue, shipping, or commerce the present measure may occasion in the West, the attempt will be made, by a transfer of trade to India, to replace it; unless the state of things which are iu embryo in Russia, Persia, and Turkey, and in India itself, make such a speculation, uncertain, and imprudent. My crop last year ( 1832) was 59!! tons of sugar, and 241 puncheons of rum selling at 92 imperial gallons; the duty on my sugar being 24s. per cwt., and the duty on the rum 9s. per gallon. According to the generous offei of my Lord ALTHOR P. on behalf of the honourable, conscientious, and religious British public, he proposes to remunerate me for this handsome estafe, and the great risk ( he acknowledges which is inse- parable from his measure), tbe paltry sum of 14,0001., which would be my portion of his 15,000,0001., at 20!. a- liead, for the 700 slaves whom Providence has committed to my care, whilst this property, in the year 1S32, produced to Government the enormous sum of 20,0001. clear, in the shape of taxes and duties, the produce of my land and the produce of my labourers. Let not the emancipationists vainly imagine they have a duty to perform only to the African black, and not an equal and higher duty to perform ( o their own brethren; for we learn from MOSES, that though GOD permitted his country- men to make slaves of the heathen, they were peremptorily prohibited from enslaving their own brethren ; evidently pointing out that a greater measure of justice was due to them than to a heathen foreigner. Whether this will have a proper influence on my Christian brethren, we shall soon see!—" By their fruits we shall know them '." You may make what use you please of this letter, and believe me to remain, Sir, your faithful humble servant, ROSE PRICE. COLON IBS.-( LETTER IV.) TO JOHN BULL. SIR.— To Jamaica and Barbadoes I may add almost the whole of our West Indian possessions, as exempt, upon the principles before stated, from all internal jurisdiction of tbe British Parliament. We shall thus greatly narrow, as we proceed, the general question. The duty, now so severe and oppressive, ( the 4i per cent, duties) has, not only in Barbadoes, but in the arrangements with all the other islands where it prevails, been given as the immense price of national liberty, political existence, and legislative independence. To what a sum has it amounted since the first grants— and in what a state of impoverishment and ruin are those from whom it is still exacted I From first to last it has proceeded solely from the local Legislatures of tbe respective islands where it obtains. Wherever it has been established it owes its legality solely to the consent of those islands; given originally upon the assurances of being allowed to frame their own laws, ( of the expediency of which they were the persons most competent to judge), and upon the faith that those assurances would never be departed from, but the adherence to them ever be held sacred. In the only case in which it was attempted by the KING, in islands having their Legislative Assemblies, to establish this tax of his own authority, as in the Grenada case, the endeavour failed; and the result of its discomfiture was, I believe, the liberation from its pressure, of other Islands. On what ground, Sir, did the attempt fail even in an English tri- bunal at home ? Because GEORGE III. had previously given political existence, and legislative rights to the Grenadians, and was held by English Judges, and in Westminster Hall, bound by the concession, and not at liberty to recede. At the same time aleo, it was held that tbe KING was at full liberty to make those concessions at his free will and pleasure, in the exercise of a prerogative held to be lawful even according to the rules of English jurisprudence, and without being under any necessity whatever of consulting on the occasion either an Irish or even a British Parliament. Such was the decision of Westminster Hall, in Campbell v. Hall; proceeding, not on the ground that the KING could not tax Grenada without the consent of the British Parliament, but because he had granted to the Grenadians the right of being taxed by a Parliament of their own, prior to the attempt to tax them by his Patent. The correctness of what was thrown in by Lord MANSFIELD, as to tbe KING being subordinate to himself, in respect of Parliament, on these occasions, will be the subject of future discussion. In the mean time, may I offer on the subject a few general observations. What had the Grenadians, I would first ask, in the moment of their cession, in common with the two Houses of tbe British Parliament, more than with those of the Parliament of Ireland ? or than the Dunkerqupis with either in tbe time of CHARLES II.? By a stroke of his pen, GEOKGE III. might have assigned their island to a foreign Power, and the cession would have been binding. Take it on the other hand, as to the two Houses themselves— What had the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, either of Great Britain or of Ireland, in point of connexion vvith the island of Grenada? Ho. w could they be said to form two of the estates of an island which had butone ? and, by what authority could their Lordships, repairing even to Jamaica or Barbadoes, have claimed a right of assisting at their legislative assemblies, or taking part in their deliberations ? What, I would ask, were the two Houses of the British Parliament, even in themselves, and in 1762, but a local Council of the KING, a legislative assembly, held solely for Great Britain, and so far from being invested with any general authority, or general superintend- ence over the British Empire, not competent, according to their own admissions, engraven on their own records, to frame a single Bill for Ireland, within only a few hours' sail of the British coast— not capable informer times of framing Bills for Calais, although so near, until Calais was associated with, and sent Members, as she did, to an English House of Commons. For, Sir, we have this old precedent of early times also on record, and it is worth a thousand in modern times— valuable for its antiquity— valuable still more for its having preceded any acquisitions of England in seas so more remote. What, I would further ask, could be the authority of a House of Commons in this respect? An authority incapable of declaring war, 01- making peace— of ordering the marching of armies or the sailing of fleets— deprived of all intrinsic sovereignty, and of all recognition as a power in foreign States— of all capacity to conclude treaties, or even to commence negoeiations with that view, without even an organ to express in foreign parts its will, or seal to certify its acts— having no faculty, even at home, but that of tendering advice, of submitting to tbe KING for approbation projects of laws for Great Britain, and granting supplies to be levied . on persons, property and effects within Great Britain, and solely within tbe limits of its geographical linesnpon the map— but non ultra. These also are the limits— the utmost boundary, after impeachment of Ministers, of its consti- tutional attributions; and Mr. BURKE, long before the Revolution of France, took occasion publicly to remind the nation of that im- portant consideration. If itpracticallv acquires amore extensive influence, and sometimes even an « scendency in the direction of state affairs, it is not in any direct l ight, but by availing itself of state necessities, and unless gra- tified in its wishes, refusing the supplies for state exigencies: thus, by the exercise of one local and confined right, and a prerogative pecu- liar to itself, compelling the exercise of prerogative belonging gene- rally and more extensively to the King, according to its will, and although royal prerogative have a wider and more extended range. PUFENDORFF, indeed^ somewhere observes, that the prerogative at- tached to a King of making war or concluding peace by his own sole act, is a mere idle mockery in states, where the King has not at the same time a power of arbitrary taxation, or where a revenue perma- nently established does not enable him at all limes to sustain the expense of war. All this is well for England— perhaps even desirable; but it can. conferno right in regard to distant islands not sharing in their deli- berations. Right can he established only by express law, or such long usage which implies law that pre existed ; and our question concerns not might, nor mere brute force, still less party squabble or political intrigue; but right, as dependent on, and resulting solely from, laws the origin and existence of which can be clearly traced. But before even this counter- plea of power can bear at all upon prerogative, two things are required : first, that prerogative should still exist, and be at all applicable to the occasion ; next, in order to apply it in effect, that it slVouid itself have remained free to act. If, then, prerogative, before the exercise of it be required, has been already exerted— if it have become effete and gone-— if others have acquired under it a prior right, how is it to be got back ? It the King,, in the lawful exercise of this prerogative, has absolutely made over all right of legislation to others, and consented that a community established in a country no ancient part or parcel of the realm, send- ing no members to a British Parliament, shall alone frame laws in- tended solely for theirown internal government— and if upon the first principles of all social government such a concession is to be held binding and irrevocable— what legislative CAPACITY is remaining in tbe King, which he can apply to give efiect to any bill which the two Houses of a British Parliament may propose to him to enact for the same community ? How can he - make that law. which was not law before, and into which life can he inspired only by his own efilation, if the spirit of life bus long since fled, and to be found nowhere in Bri- tain, but in some distant clime ? I have said that before prerogative can be com pel led to defer to one or both the Houses of a British Parliament, it must be free. But if it has entered into lawful engagements by which it has already . bound itself to introduce no law but what shall be previously proposed and approved by the people on whom it is to be imposed— to forbear even from such an attempt— and if such be the compact which binds that people on their side to allegiance,— prerogative can by no act, with- out the consent of that people, regain its freedom from such an en- gagement, and no attempt to contravene the compact can be of any legal effect. Such, Sir, are the engagements into which I conceive tbe Crown to have entered with Jamaica, Bai badoes, and other islands. It might have ceded those islands at once to any foreign power, and the ces- sion, however impolitic or unwise, would be binding; it would have vested in such a power a full and lawful right to the islands so ceded. This is a point of international law beyond dispute. Such cessions are binding, when the fundamental laws of the state have not pre-, scribed that such cessions shall not be made without the approbation of some other authority within itself. The law and constitution of England have established no such authority, but left all right and power in that respect solely to the King. I therefore should have great difficulty in comprehending the con- sistency of that reasoning which should hold that the King can part with a conquest or foreign acquisition altogether, and is not compe- tent to enter into compacts with its inhabitants to make them a free nation— that he should have the power to enslave, by handing them over to a foreign and possibly tyrannic domination, and not to esta- blish among them liberty, by yielding to them the blessings of a free government, through arrangements taken with themselves. It is to arrangements taken upon similar principles that even both Houses of Parliament owe theirown existence. The two Houses, as now constituted, have emanated from the King, and not the King from the two Houses of his own Parliament. The right of sitting in the Upper House is at the present hour a matter emanating solely from tbe King— irrevocable when once granted— and renovative almost in each year by similar concessions to others. The right also of parti- cular towns to send members to the House of Commons, so far back as it can be traced to them, is also a concession from the King. So far even has the doctrine been carried, and so recently, that even the present Chief Justice of England is reported to have declared pub- licly an opinion ( and on which, as Attorney- General, he was prepared in an emergency to advise the Crown) that even at this hour the King, by his prerogative, might direct a writ to any town or city he might please. It was assuredly a greater exercise of prerogative in JAMES I. to call members from new towns, and seat them in English* or Irish House of Commons— as to the latter, indeed, in overpowering num- bers,— than to grant to regions situate in another hemisphere the right of proceeding in the task of legislation for themselves at dis- tances so remote, and under circumstances of which they must from their locality be the most competent to judge, by legislative assem- blies of their own. DIPLOMATICUS VETUS. .15th May, 1833. P. S. Since tbe above was written, a discussion has taken place, in which a Right Honourable Gentleman, of whose eloquence your cor- respondent entertains admiration, and of whose capacity, at some future day, to lead the Councils of the State, en chef, he is willing to cherish a hope, has entered on the point to which alone it is intended to limit, on my part, interference. He is reported to have said, that " be, knew of no law or boundary- line which restricted tbe United Parliament, save such as. it im- posed for the time being on itself, and he left it to those ( if such there were) who held that Parliament did not possess the parambunt right of interference, to point out in what Charter of what Colonial Assembly was there an exception to this Imperial legislative con- troul ; and to shew by reason and argumentthat a delegated authority could or should exceed, in its power and privilege, the delegating ( lower to which it owed its existence."— Vide the Times, 15th May. With great respect| I take up the glove thus thrown down, a;, id lor the moment content myself with submitting that the thesis above- stated contains error both in fact and in law. It assumes that which is to he demonstrated.! argues on what has no existence, and deduces con- sequences from premises which have in themselves no foundation. It proceeds on the idea of a paramount right delegating i. ts autho- rity, and requires it to be shown how it has been abridged, But I will ask, in return, where and when did that paramount, authority which it supposes first commence? Was it in the Parliament of England, of Scotland, or of Ireland? in what degree? and to what extent ? So far only as it can be shown to have been in each or one of them, so far only can it be now vested in tbe combination of them all; and if it can be shown not to have rested solely or exclusively in any one of them, there is nothing of it in tbe United Parliament whatever. Ex nihilo nihil fit. By what Act, also, did this parameunt authority execute its sup- posed " delegation ?" and, on what principle, if the doctrine, re- ported to have been held, be correct, do the two Houses of Parlia- ment hold, as against the Crown, their own authority ? The Right Hon. Secretary has obviously been led away, like tnany others, by the rhapsodies of Lord COKE on the power of Par- liament, or rather by his exaggerated mode of expression ; and because the supreme legislative power of England, of Scotland, and of Ireland, was vested in the respective Parliaments of those several and distinct realms, for matters within th'fcm, it is erroneously con- cluded that thev bad each of them supreme power without; an idea as contestable, I will not say absurd, in itself as it is contrary to first principles in general jurisprudence, and in the law of nations. These are not " ARCANA imperii," they are, on the contrary, " juris AXIOMATA; and I had supposed them sufficiently familiar etiam TYRONIBUS.''

This hat been a very active week in the Consol Market, and a con- siderable advance has taken place in the price of English Stock. The settlement, on the 22nd, passed over without any defalcation, and it proved a Bull Account. The fluctuation since the lastsettle- ment has not exceeded li per cent. The market, since the settling day, has been very buoyant, and Consols for the New Account were done this morning at 89j g, and left off at 891 I, and for money 891.

BIGNON against the payment by France of any part of the Greek loan. He anxiously desired, he said, the emancipation of the Greeks, but admits, that he desired it principally, if not exclusively, because he thought that Greece would " show her gratitude" by promoting French interests. We have received New York Papers to the 1st instant inclusive, which do not contain any political intelligence of the least interest. These Papers copy a detailed account from the Montreal Gazette of the 25ih of April of a fire which occurred on the preceding day at that place, and which entirely destroyed the British American Hotel. So rapid was the progress of the flames, that a numerous assemblage of ladies and gentlemen, who had been collected by the attraction of a soiree musicale, escaped with difficulty through the windows. It is added that, fortunately for the cause of science and philan- thropy, Captain Back ( one of the inmates of this hotel) secured his baggage and scientific instruments, which had been so arranged as to be ready for his movements to Lachine that evening. A public dinner was about to be given at Montreal to Captain Back, and the gentlemen of the expedition in search of Captain Ross. The Upper Canada accounts state, that the river and the lake were quite open. A Quebec paper of the 21st of April has been received. It states, that 700 letters have been addressed and sent off to the members of the cabinet on the timber duties. A Cabinet Council is summoned to be held at the Foreign Office, at two'clock to- morrow. Tuesday next will be a most brilliant day in the festive annals of the inetroplis, in consequence of its being appointed for the celebra- tion of the King's birthday. Many of the nobility and gentry will give splendid entertainments of various descriptions, but especially dinner parties, and in the evening there will be an onera, at which many of the ladies who have been presented at the Drawing- room will appear in their court plumes and jewels. Lord King is, we hear, a little better. His Lordship remains, however, in a very precarious state. It is rumoured that the Bishop of Hereford, the Premier's brother, is to lead the opposition to the Irish Church Bill in the House of Lords. The opponents of the Bill, it is added, calculate upon throw- ing it out, by a majority bordering upon 40. On Thursday afternoon the Duke of Orleans and suite arrived at Liverpool, by the railroad, from Manchester. Ilis Royal Highness took up his residence at the Adelphi Hotel, where he was visited by the Mayor and the Bailiffs, who proceeded in state from the Town- hall to welcome his Royal Highness to Liverpool. Great perparations are making in the Regent's Park for the Annual Fete Champetre, and Ladies Bazaar, in aid of the Royal Dispensary for Diseases of the Ear, which will take place on Thurs- day and Friday next, under the same distinguished patronage as last year. We have observed, in another part of the Paper, that three of the Jury, who sat on the late Inquest, are Members of the Union. The names of these Jurymen are Edward Holder, Gray's Inn- lane, glass cutter ; William Purdy, Gray's Inn- lane, shoemaker ; George Dennis, Sidmouth street, baker. Covent- Gatden Theatre re- opens to- morrow evening, with the German Operatic Company, to the great discomfiture of the actors who are now performing at the Olympic Theatre. They accuse M. Laporte of a breach of faith to them, and have put forth an address to that effect. The funeral of Mr. Kean took place yesterday at Richmond, in accordance with the arrangements of the Committee for conducting it. A great number of persons, from the metropolis and the sur- rounding neighbourhood, were present, to witness the mournful ce- remony. The following notice was posted in the Green Room of Drury Lane Theatre on Friday evening :— " THEATIIE ROYAL DRURY LANE.— The ladies and gentlemen of this theatre are requested to take notice, that it will close for the season on Tuesday, June 11.— Those parties who may be desirous of being engaged in the performances at Covent Garden during the remainder of the season, will be pleased to signify the same tome by 12 o'clock on Wednesday next; and are also requested, at the same time, to express their desires respecting an engagement at the two theatres for the ensuing season. ( Signed) W. DUNN.'' Friday morning, about two o'clock, while police constable Lewis was on duty in the Walworth- road, he observed three men attempt- ing to break into the house occupied by a gentleman named Smalls, in that road. The policeman immediately approached and seized one of them ; upon which he was attacked by the other two, and, after a severe conflict with the assailants, during which one of them attempted to stab him with a knife, he was ultimately thrown upon the ground, and beaten in a dreadful manner. Fortunately, the knife with which the ruffian attempted to stab the policeman did not penetrate the flesh, merely cutting through the bark part of his coat, waistcoat, and shirt, and inflicting a slight scratch for some length along the skin. The policeman was found lying senseless on the ground soon after the attack, when it was discovered that several holes had been bored by a centre- bit in the street- door of Mr. Small's hou « e, and a quantity of blood was besmeared upon the door- post. Lewis, it appeared, in the conflict with the thieves, struck one of them, and wounded him, for marks of blood were traced a con siderable distance alomr the road from the house.
