Fiom the very confined situation, a few minutes molt would ^ bbalily have rcndei ed assisl- aiue unavailing, as ^^ vas impossible to get the engines to work near where the lire commenced. rt calamitous cliculi. stai. ee occurred at Air. Winters, at tile Abbey, near Hits town, a shot t timo since; a boy who had been farming-- outhis Horse by candle light, having incautiously studied his caudle and dropped it among ihe straw, il almost instantly took tire, but was jorliiuately discovered by one ol VIr. U's men going lo work. A Horse and Mule lliat were in tiie sUhle could of Radford, near Nottingham, oil the eveninsrof the Sunday before. Christmas day last, wiih f pis » tol, loaded with leaden shot, with intent to kill and murder him, J here where, two others abo ii>. dieted wilhhini. of the iiamCsof Henfi'ej and Wool- ev, who have absconded, but when found, will be tried on the same indictment. Hie circumstances disclosed f> scene of the most wicked am) premeditated intent, not only to niiiieU'f Kerry, but to break the frames in. lfis house, by ' his smail part of Hie gangs of Luddites, who have infested and disgraced this part of the kingdom for some lime past, with impunity. It appealed that Henfiey Hud Wncley brought two loaded pistols to Digglc's lioiisp, iu Bast'onl, on tiie evening before named, arid Shaw, in the preJ Seiice of Diggle and his wife, Wenf and got gnupovtr. derlVom a man ot the naiiie of Pdgson. and thera loaded two other pistols. Henfiey, liiggie, and one Bui ton, then went to Herri's; broke open the door of his house, where he and his family were silling ill peace, aud Henfiey and Diggle went IH and presented their pistols, demiiifdilig that the • wife and family of Kerry should retire into the par. lour. Kerry goi up and seized Henfiiy's pistol, which Hentiey endeavoured to discharge et tilt body of Ken v, but Which Kct- rv, tinned aside, and lilt- contents wl ilt into the fitfe in tlie room. Higgle then discharged liis, pistol ai the head of Kerry, Several of the shot corns front which enter- ed his Hbad, and where afterwards extracted by ft Surgeon.— Kerry dropped dow n, exclaiming lie was shut, and Vras a dead man. Hcnfrev and Digtde directly decamped, Higgle saying, as lit went but, " I have shotTtim dead— lie. fell as dead as a knit!*' Ilenfiey , Diggle, and Wooley, wanted to turn bdek with Burton t who had a hailuns r with liiin for the purpbse) to break the stocking frames in Kerry's house j but this they abandoned for the time. All these facts, with others, shewing the wickedness and depravity of the four Luddites, weredisclosed tlpon the trial. Diggle was convicted upon tile clearest and most satisfactory evidence, not only of Kerty and his family, but of Burton ( one of the tour) who was admitted evidence for the Crown. The Judge ^ Mr. Baron Riohards) then passed sentence of death upon the prisoner,- Diggle, ill a very impressive manner. Few, if any, cottld refrain from shedding tears, on this awful and eloquent address to this unfortunate young man. In the address he was strongly advised to make the best , use of the short time lie bad to live, and exhorted to prepare for eternity, for mercy to biin would be cniclty to society. Diggle, with three others, stood indicted for besetting the house of Mr. William Cook, at Short- wood, near Tiowell, ( « ame keeper to the Right Hon.

The learned Judge very pointedly complimented Lord Middleton upon tbe propriety of his conduct on the occasion, and in the most solemn aud impies* sivy manner addressed the three prisoners at the bar, informing them, that tliey owed tlutr tires to his Lordship's interference in their favour ; for it ap- peared from ( tocum uts in the learned Judge's possession, that lliey were guilty, and might have been convicted if the prosecution had been pro- ceeded ill.

I w into this Iran, of thought by bearing n violent de- clamation mi the iltlicieut zenl of the established Clergv. Z(": l is a quality so questional,! nature, depends so much 011 indivulnal tempera- ment, is so unconnected with knowledge, and so formidable in us operation8, that if it limy he de- nied, it nia v be also drtaded; it it may lie Com- mended, it uiav be also execrated , il it sometimes do tried, it otteu does in scliiel. Wisdom may inileeJ correct it, as skill subdues poison ; but in itself, it is neither 1110; e nor less, than the blind Impulse of a mind ill flames. Much of ecclesias- tical history is the nitre detail of its excesses ; no body of 111C11 there fore should be hastily Censured, ifitley indulge with caution, this dangerous pas- sion. It has ever been the weakness, the malice, or the knavery of Zealots, to exact qualities or degreesof qualities, 111 one period of the Chinch and ofSeciety, which wire pltiinlv, peculiar, and confined 10 others. Some people make nothing of tireuuntanecs : though these, in innumerable in- stances, constitute right and wrong, vice and vir- tue, absurdity and wisdom, distribute happiness, Or " scatter around fin brands, allows, and death." Pope speaks of1' the worst ol madmen, iu a s tint run mad," and Drvilen of" a patriots all atoning name." Often has the one ligliti( I up the flames of peisecnritiu, andilieollitr noted in confiscation, plunder, itud blood. Hooker litis noticed I lie per- IIN i'MIS coi.- rqiunces ol attempting to regulate all human relations and circumstances, by scripture •• xamnlfs. It would be well if rli « calumniators ofthe Clergy would weigh the iuipoitance of tins femaik. They would t'if n perceite, that an action prescribed 10 an apostle, may he no rule for us. - J hut p.- encbina at Mars' Hill," is 11,1 precedent for field preaching : that propogat'iig the Gospel " from Jerusalem round about unto Iliyricuiii," is no vnlication of itinerancy : tl. at A poll08 is nnjtis- tification of si If suit teachers: nor tie effusion of the lloly Ghost, ol rant, exstaciii, and sensil le divine impulses. In that period of the Church to " Inch Scripture is confined, Chri- tianity was in its infancy ; winning its way by arguments and mitnrles, 10 the conversion of the people anil the favour of the magistrate. That peisoual inter- course with God, ( if the phrase bo allowable) to winch int first teachers were admitted, seems to litive been absolutely necessary, to invigorate their extraordinary efforts. The labours of Apostles were as supernatural as their powers. But when argument was sufficient, miracles ceased; wbpn less labour was necessary, less was requhed ; and well might they he indifferent to all earthly ac- commodations, distinctions, and pleasures, who hud death e> er before their eyes, aud Heaven ever open to their view. Pretences to extraordinary sanctity, bustle, noise', and novelty, have strange charms for the multitude. Hence the neglect and censure of so many Clergymen, whose silont la. hours and sound doctrine entitle them tn the tell- er; tion iriftheir people. Allow me to add, that when the scantiness of their income is considered, thin it terminates with life, that some provision must be mi'de for survivors, 11 ml: he decencies of their runk he maintained, candour will ( Injustice fo the ardour of their benevolence, and piety w ill reverence their confidence in God. Hut they can- not stoop to the vile tricks of enthusiasts. Vocifer- ation, wild gesticulation, daring assertions, parly phraseology, and uff, cted frequency of public wor- ship, will ev er thin a Church and crowd n Conven- ticle. T lie hinaticnrtfolly and incessantly contracts his ow n ostentatious devotion 11111I morbid activity, with the utiobtruded piety, the calm and steady usefulm ss of his regular neighbour. A blaze will always draw attention. He is equally adroit in the use of a wretched sophism, which serves nt once t « aggrandize himself and disparage the Church. Because, in all great bodies, the majo. rity w ill ever be defective, lie infers from this cir- cumstance, the superior excellence of his own principles, people, and preachers. Now it is only to recollect, that Sectaries are, in comparison, few, and Churchmen numerous, and the fallacy is instantly detected. Yet infatuated followers cannot or will not see it. Consequence is, that this paltry, stale stratagem, is every where, attended, with incredible success, and the Clergy are blatncd lor not effecting, what tlie condition of humanity will ne ver admit. Im- position, however, seldom fails, ultimately, to be- tray itself. Tbey, therefore, who, so uncharitably, exaggerate the general depravity, are often found, in proportion, more depraved themselves, tical seal is the very hot- bed of iniquity profane jumble of lofty pretensions and gross defi- ciencies, of refined spirituality aud disgusting sen- suality, of cant and cunning, of praying and profli- gacy, of scrupulosity and deliberate guilt, can only be attributed to a sophisticated understanding, a perverted conscience and a hardened heart. T rue Religion tends to charity and pence. 1 am willing to rest, the vindication of the Cleig) and the cri- minal inn ol Fanatics, on this ground. The Clergy are, in general, so reluctant to recriminate, that they have incurred the charge of supineness and indifference, Fanatics omit, no occasion, public or private, to revile the Church. Tlie Cle rgy are, to the utmost of their means, the natrons of the poor. Fanatics exhaust tie opulent and peel the poor.— I he Clergy conciliate neighbours and confirm do- mestic union. Fanatics " creep into houses and sepaiate chief friend*." The Clergy jnculc- ite loyalty 11111I submission. Fanatics republicanism and resistance. In 11 word, Confusion is the cry • it Fanaticism, and Concord the voice of the Church. PRO ECCLESIA. their The Faaa- T'he PLAN FOR THE EXTINCTION OF POOR RATES. At present we confine ourselves to the fnct that he plan has met the warmest admiration .. f ninny ,, l our greatest Statists— Has been examined by the benevolent Committee, of which the Archbishop ot Canterbury is the head, and referred by this body ro the Committee of the House of Commons on the Poor Laws, with whom it now is. IVTECTS or Jl'MMAltY OF THE Mr; OVVEN's PLAN. " To relieve uk poor and woiking classes from , heir present distress, and to render it unnecessary .„ tU- country to bear the burden of their perma- ;' tnr support in idleness, the unemployed tioor ,4, pst be provided with the means by which their labour may be brought into action, and also with the knowledge which is requisite to direct that la- bour beneficially lor themselves anil the commu- nity. This can only be done bv allotting to them certain poitiuits of Intnl. and supplying them with the materials and iutoiunition necessary lo its ad- vantageous cultivation. And such provisions may be made lor them in the follow ing manner, with such alterations and modifications as the wisdom ol Parliament may suggest. " The poor to be made national. T he present Poor- rates to he mortua^ ed to the amount of live or six years of its .. mum! revenue. T he money to be bill rowed as it niav afterwards he required.- » - This fund to be applied to the purchase of laud in piQportion nf from 10 acres each, and to the erection ol establishments near to or upon tiie centre of sin Ii lands, e< tcb to be calculated to ac- commodate Irpui 500 to lSt/ J pviions— men, wo- men, and children " The null ne of a plan for such establishments is annexed to this address. It is drawn oil the supposition that the land is l- vel, but a moments refier lioir will make it evident that the plan is sub- ject to infinite* modifications, depending 011 the pe- culiar localities of 1 he laud on which the Establish- ment may l, e formed. The follow iug ti/ e some Of the advantage* which maybe ( leiivcd from such at iT. ngenients lor the manufacturing and labouring poor:— " 1st— Expensive us such a sys'etn lor the ffn- employed poor may appear to a superficial observ- er, it Villi be found, on investigation, by tlioso w hose minds are capable of comprehending such a ' con- hiitation, to be by far the most wcouumicai that litis vet been devised. " Many of tiie unemployed Poor are no . v in a SI lite of gross ignorance, rind have been trained ill bad h, bus— a situation in which, uiulerihe present system, tin t are likely to continue through suc- ceeding generations. The arrangements proposed afford the certain means, 11: a manner ilm most gtutil'yi g to all parties inieW sted, of overcoming both their ignorance and their bad habits in one generation. " 3d — The greatest evils which sit present affl ct society, ai- ise iron* mankind being trained io prin- ciples of competition. Tilt' purposed cirruiigftncnu offer the t est mode of uniting men 111 common measures lor their mutual benefit, bv presenting an easy practical plan, of gtudbully withdrawing the causes of ditlererce'mid animosity aiiiont indi- viduals, and of making their mtcrtstand their duty verv generally the same. " 4th— This sysiom for tl. e unemployed Poor will also afford tiie most ceittun and effectual means of giving tlie l. est liubilsniid sentiments to nil tl. sir children,— as soon a- sot iety slut I .. cquire suffici- ent rationality nutl wisdom to discover what habits and sentiments, or what character ought to be giyn to them. " 5th— It wrll likewise afford the most powerful means of improving the habits and general conduct of I be present unemployed Poor, w ho have been neglected by society troui their infancy. " 6th— It will give ill return lor their labour more valuable, substantial, and permanent coiu- fbrts to the Poor, than have ever yet been offered them. " Till— Iu one generation it will, supersede the necessity of Poor- rates or auy ptcuniaiy gifts of charity, by preventing any one from being poor or subject to such unnecessary degradation. " titii— It will offer the means of gradually qua- drupling the population of the most populous dis- tricts of Europe or America, ami of increasing the strength and political power of the country 111 which it shall be adopted, more than ten- fob'. " 9th— It is easy of adoption. It may be put into practice with less ability and exettiou than are requisite to establish a new manufacture in a new situation. Many individuals of o ( linary ta- lents aud common minds have formed establish- ments which possess combinations much more complex and intricate; iu short, there will not be any thing required which is not rinilv peiforined in common society; and which, under the arrange- ments proposed, will be still more easi. y per- formed. " 10th— It will effectually relieve the manufne. turiug 11111I labouring Poor from their present dis- tress, without violently orjniertiaturelv interfering with the present 111 raugemfps of society. " I lib— It will permit mechanic inventions and improvements to be earned to any extent, for by the proposed measures, every iiuprovem nt 111 me- chanism will be rendered subservient to, and in aid ol human labour. " And lastly— all ranks will be essetitinllv bens- fited by this amebian tion iu the condition of the labouring and manufacturing Poor; and some plan founded on such principles as have been now un- folded, is absolutely necessary to secure the well being of society." In the existing state of Society the unemployed working classes are maintained by nud consume a paitofthc produce ofthe wealthy and intlustiioiij classes, while their powers of body and mind re main unproductive. They are the lean kmc eat- ing up the fat, without improvement iu their own condition. On the contrary, they acquire tli<| worst of habits from idleness, the worst of vices from nbjectness and misery ;— and becoming the bane of Society, poison its whole frame up wards. After enforcing the necessity of training up the children ol tinsclass in ilia practice of iudis- 11 v and in moral habits, Mr. Owen lays down the incontrovertible principle that " the same " quantity and quality of labour under one di- " rection will produce a far more valuable re- stilt than under .' mother." Upon ibis fttuila- intijlai dogma his plan lunges. Tne labour ol the Poor should be exerted under ttic best direction. I heir expenditure, under the same, w ill be dimi nisbed, while their productiveness is increase-:!.—- Their coinlbrts too, will be proportionally aug- mented. " Unite," sajs Mr. Owen, " the iu'ererts and the duty ol the Poor," now so often and so much ut variance, and remove them from unnecessary temptations, which they have not been trained, and cannot therefoie be expected to resist : and you accomplish the amelioration ol their situation, and the improvement of general society. On these piinciples the Plan proceeds. It pro- poses to establish Squares and buildings to accom- modate about 120U persons, men, women, and children, nud to b* surrounded by a regulated quantity of land for cultivation. The buildings contain a public kitchen, mess rooms, and all re- quisite accommodations attached to comfortable cooking and eating. Ou one side is the infant school; on the other the school lor the more ad- vanced, with other plncts lor instruction, Die. See. There me grounds for exercise and recreation, planted aud beautified with trees. Three sides ofthe square shall be lodging houses for the mar- ried poor, each sufficient to accommodate two children with their father and mother. T he fourth side is in dormitories lor t tie children above three years ol age, removed from their parents mid placed under the superintendnnce oil he In- stitution, but still allowed free and proper inter- course with* the authors of then being. There arc store rooms, manufactories, and gardens ; " complete fanning Establishment, limiting brewing houses, corn mill, dairy, every thing which such a Society can wautJur its support. The employment of the Women is chalked out in the care of their iufifnts and bouses; in culti- vating the gardens to raise vegetables for the sup- ply of the public kitchen; in attending to such of the branches of the various manufactures ns is suited to their Sex, but only 4 or 5 hours a ( lay ; in making clothes ; aud iu occasional assistance, according to rotation, in the kitchen, mess rooms, and dormitories. Tlie Children to be trained, in the lighter occu- pations, and without taxing their strength, till they leach niaturer years, and are fit for mnnlv toils. Instruction raid health, with habits of industry, are the primary objects in their treatment. To the Men, the labours of ugr culture, and the heaviest purrs ol the manufactories are allotted, but by no means to the extent that a day labourer is now required to Work. I lie expense of such an Establishment for 1200 persons, comprising ihe purchase of Lands, and ilie ere'etion and Fuilliture of Buildings, is estimated at J_ 9ti, 0l) 0, or a capital of' ^ iM per person. Hie present nnnutil expence of Poor rates lias been calculated at between fight and nine mil- lions! ! In comparison w itli this, even the original expeuce of Mr. Owen's Plan is a mere trille ; but v> lieu w e* look at the hitter as a source of future productiveness, while the former is a fathomless and interminable drain, the expence becomes as nothing. The law expeuces nloiie- for tlie year ending 25th March, 1815, under the present system, amounted to 4s. 8dy This year 11ley will double the sum !! A proposition for the Repeal or Commutation of'tlio Si i. r Dents, having been brought forward iu the House of CooihlonS during the present week, the following observations 011 so important a subject inny not be deemed improper al the pre- sent moment. When we consider that Salt is an article Of the first necessity, as well to the heultb as to the com- fort of mankind ; and thai the duty churned upon it 111 this kingdom is forty litntS the amount if its first cost, we wonder some substitute has llot al- rentlv been found for a tax so obnoxious. A bushel of salt wliinh foreigners buy of us at the price ol ' fourpenee half penny, free of duty, is subject to a lax of fifteen shillings, when used by our own couiitiymen; and iu most parts ol Eng- land, the poor pay more lor a pound of salt, than foreigners pay for a bushel! The consequence of this impolitic rlutv is that foreigners, who buy English salt dutyfree, can employ their on n poor in catching and curing fish, whilst iwr poor ure in absolute u ant of employment They can undersell us in foieigu moikets; and even send us back articles, obtained with our own salt, at twenty times the price they paid us for it.— Again, us the Dutch can obtain our salt witli so much ease, they come upon our coasts, catch our own fish, cure it with our own salt, and then sell it to « *, and our customers abroad, at five times the price at which we could have caught and cured it, by employing our own sailors and fishermen. So iu America, the suljects of the United States have luu away with more than half ourNewfound- luml trade: m. d then supply our West India Colo- nies, by underselling us. Although there is an exemption from duty 011 salt used for our own fisheries, the trade is subject to such severe pains and penalties, and lettered with so many restrictions and conditions, that a poor fisherman unit tailor cannot possibly take the benefit of it: nud many even prefer paying the duty, or more frequently throwing away their fish, to the providing storehouses, subject to the excise, and incurring the risk, trouble, aud vexation of the sa t laws. Yet with ail this severity, the temp- tation to smuggle, where the tax is forty times as much as the first cost, is so great, that gangs of thieves unit smugglers uie to he found in the neigh- bourhood of all salt woiks, as well as 011 our coasts; and as much salt is stolen, plundered, or smuggled, as actually pays the duly. A few years buck 111 . ny hundreds of loads of re- fuse Salt, not fit for the market, were allowed to he used for MANURE iu Worcestershire, Cheshire, & c. and paid to Government a duty of fourpeuce a bushel, for leave to u* e it ; but since ihe great increase of the general tux on salt for home com- position to fifteen shillings a bushel, all tliisru/ ua- ile mwiure is thrown into the river, and entirely lost to the country. At the same time we may observe, that as salt is purchased by retail in small quantities, the an- nual expence of it is greater than most persons seein to be aware of. Few cottagers use much It**, and many use more, 011 1111 average, than a pound of salt a week ; little however, as that seems, it amounts to a bushel a year; which, when bought by the pound, will hardly be got for less tlwn at the rate of six shilling a stone, or twenty four sibl- ings the bushel. Other housekeepers use double that quantity ; some four times us much; particu- larly where there is a good deal of salt meat.— Farmer* are taxed at a still higher rate ; for they want feu It for their butter, cheese, pork, beef, & c, * c. ami would find it of great use when getting iu their hay in wet weather, in making damaged hay palatabiw and wholesome for their cattle, in pre- serving their sheep from the lot, and in many other respects: so that there can be no doubt, but that the w isdom of Parliament may iie able to find a mode of Commutation for the Salt Duties, which whilst it does not cost us half of the extra price we now pay to the Excise tor the duty on salt, may provide AODITIOXAL EMPLOYMENT ill fishe- ries, manufactures, trade, and commerce / br our distressed poor anil our disbanded sailors and sol. d'urs, aud thereby materially relieve us in our poor rates.

We had a moderate arrival of Wheat from Essex and Kent this morning, but there has been a good foreign supply since this day se'nnight.— The trade was generally dull, even for fine qualities, which we quote full 8s per quarter cheaper, whilst orde nary kinds are difficult of sale at a further reduc- tion.— Barley is from 3s to 4s per quarter cheaper j and Molt meets a dull sale, unless very fiue.—• There was a large arrival of New Beans, for which there were few buyers, and the sales made are at a decline of about 2s — Old Beans also will not support our Inst quotation. White Pease are about 3s per quarter lower— and there is not much de- mand lor Giey Pease.— The Oat trade > s much tlie same for prime qualities, but all other kinds ace rather lower.— Flour remains as last quoted.
