The recent Meeting of the Freeholders of the county of Suffolk proved the wish of that body, to be decidedly in favour of a Reform in Parliament, end we are sure that wish is reciprocated, from a conv.etion of its necessity, by every honest man—by every one who shares not " the loaves and fishes," the distribution of which is consequent from the present state of that Ifouse, which, instead of being, us it ought to be, the real representatives of the people, is, in point of fact, merely the Echo to the measures of Ministers, be they what tiny may.— This Retbrm, we hole, will be effected without a rcvolution, because we have a very high authority to support our own opinion, that "if the House of Commons be not retbrmcd within its own doors, it v. ill soon be reformed from without with a ven geance." The Session of Parliament now com mencing will assemble under more fearful circum stances than any other has done in our political memory, and Economy and ltetret:chment are the chars on which most be sacrificed every other con sideration: these offerings must no longer be confined to the discharge of inferior Cleriss—it must extend to all classes; and the example of Louis XVIII. is worthy of George IV.—when lie addressed the Chambers on his second restoration, and acknow. THE NATIONAL REGISTER lodged the unexampled distress of the country, he urged the necessity of economy, and aided, that his ' example should not be wanting, for that until the situation of France should be ameliorated, he would only receive two-thirds of the amount voted to him for the civil list. and :aided, that all his Ministers should be subject to the sant.: reduction.—Let his Majesty resolve on the same line of conduct, and he will be deservedly popular—let him order a curtail ment of expellee in every department, without ex ception, and he will soon be convinced that the ardent attachment of an English people is a better, and to ua English end cons!itwional Member of the House of Brunswick a more appropriate guard than the mercenary sabres, muskets, and bayonets of a sol diery unconstitutionally cooped up in barrack, with a view to alienate them from the feelings of citizens of a free state, the greet of which estrangement was pretty manifestly exhibited both in the murder at Cumberland gate, and the attempt at murder at the Knightsbridge-barracks But to return to the approaching Sessional business—if an entire change of measures and ministers (which would be hailed as a blessing by the kingdom at large) cannot be obtlinA, we hope the present unworthy occupants of the Treasury Benches will come forward man fully, and to their country confess, with the prodigal Son—" We have sinned against Heaven and against thee," and as they must still be forced upon us as our " hired Servants" promise to change their prac tices—to consider the present pauperised state of the Agricultural, Manufacturing, and all other parts of the community, and to lend themselves to any measures that may probably conduce to their relief. We regret to find that the outrages in Ireland, so far from subsiding, are in daily increase—a very I I consider ,ble degree of organization seems to exist among the people, and in some instances they have even become the assailants of the military.—We have always consiLred that an amelioration of the state of the Irish Catholics, and a decrease of the un just oppressions they groan under, which we have repeatedly enumerated, must take place before tran quillity can be expected—A special commission may sit for ever, but will not restore quiet to a CATHOLIC Kingdom whose inhabitants, after supporting their own ministers liberally, are compelled to pay tythes to those of a religion they abjuie abhor. At Boulogne-sur-Alcr, notwithstanding the great number of English residents, provisions are still re markably cheap, particularly fish and poultry. A fine hare may be purchased tilt about two francs and a half (two shillings English) ; a goose for two francs: fiwls for three francs a pair ; and fish enough for a large iuwily for about one shilling.— Vegetables and fruit arc to be had for almost nothing ; and milk and butter are very cheap.— Ilonse-rent is comparatively dear. In a family of fifteen or sixteen persons a furnished house will cost sixty pounds a year : the landlord paying taxes. It is calculated that in the summer there are five or six thousand English in Boulogne and its immediate neighbourhood. Even at present there are said to be nearly four thousand. Within the list two months; two or three enter: Englishmen, who bad left dear remembrances in their London tradesmen's books, have tried with success a s:cond edition of the same scheme upon the credulous people of Bou logne. One sprig of fitsimiun has absconded from that place, tiller incurring debts there to the amount of two thousand pounds A few days since, a respectable tradesman of Exeter applied to a clergyman in the neighbourhood fir a debt of 501.: the reverend gentleman, expecting the demand, had previously assembled his tenants, who owed him 8001 and offered to accept 4001. from them, on ilday specili,d, and forgive them the re maining half. The day arrived—not one of the te nants appeared—cud the tradesman's bill remains unsatisfied. We fear occurrences of this nature are too general ; and such is the reciprocity of interest between agricultural and domestic commerce, that the distress of one must nec,.ssarily re-act on the other. _ _ A gentleman of Edinburgh, king pressed the other day to subscribe to the national monument to be erected in that city, to commemorate the events of the late war, replied, " I'll do nae sic thing—the National Debt, i' ►►►y opinion, is monument enough." Extract of a letter from Elvas in Portugal, dated January 2, ISSN' :—" Having again re-established myself here, 1 am engaged in collecting wools, and now make Antwerpt, Aixla Chapelle, and Ver viera, what Leeds and Hu(lcrsfield were to ins before the tax was imposed in England on the im portation of fineign wool. I have already sent large quantities of woe], I have received back one considerable parcel of cloths, and have advice of two much larger shipments from Antwerp. I have besides sold 132 bags of wool for cash, to un Ame rican, fitr the supply of their manufacturers." At a meeting of the Agriculturists of Sussex, of the Rape of Bramb...r, on Ft - tday last, Sir C. M. Burrell stated at the meeting, that of Chichester, a few days since, it gentleman took 43 sovereigns, a• d not being in the habit of receiving gold, failed in the necessary precaution of ringing them , upon in vestigation it was discovered that 11 of the sove reigns were made of platina, and were inninsically worth only ss. each, though weighing the same as sterling gold ; and being as well executed, they bade defiance to detection, except,by their different sound from the more valuable metal they were coined to represent. Very large shipments of British manufactured Roods have been made, and are still making, to the Southern parts of the world. This demand has the merit for the present, of keeping all the manufac. turcrs at work, but well-informed merchants doubt whether the result will be equally beneficial. The quantity going out is greater than the markets are likely to consume. These goods arc generAy sold at from 18 months to two years credit, lied it is known that money has been raised, in more instances than one, on the property, by the shippers, Leftist: the vessels have sailed from the British shores. EARTHOUSEE.—On Tuesday week, übout ten o'clock at night, many of the inhabitants of Seaton Ross. Foggathorpe, and Holine upon Spalding Moor, in Yorkshire, were alarmed by the smart shock of an earthquake. Neveral families who laid just re tired to rest tOt their beds shake under them, and sonic, in the moment of surprise and uf right. sprang out of them upon the floer; others, who were still up, felt their chairs move with them, and some ran out of doors to see what was the matter: a rumbling noise was heard, and in two houses the bells rang of themselves. The shuck was also felt in the villages of Beilby, Everingham, Allerthorpe, and Melbourne. A vessel has arrived at Liverrool from Buem s Ayres, with letters to the 50th October, ten days later than the advices previously received from the same quarter; but they do not contain any political news. Order and tranquillity prevailed, and the affairs of the Government were gradually becoming more organized. The markets were glutted with merchandise, which had induced several English . houses established there to send cargoes round Cape Horn, to Chili and Peru ; and this circumstance will, no doubt, add to the dilemma of the many speculators who already swarm on all the shores of the Pacific. The Austrian Observer of the 18th instant, gives the following account of a singular commotion which took place at Constantinople on the 20th of Dec. and in which the Turkish students figured:— " It is known that a great number of young men are educated at Constantinople near the Mosques, who are dctincd to be expounders of the law.— Those who belong to the Mosque of Sultan Ma hornet 11. have always enjoyed the greatest privi leges, and pass Mr the most zealous supporters of Islamism. One of the teachers, a man of learning, had lately been banished tar smile indiscreet expres sions against tine of the members of the Govern ment. When the students heard of the fact, they assembled in great numbers (2,000), proceeded to to the palace of the Mufti, and loudly demanded the recall of their preceptor. To show their peace uble disposition they had left their arms behimi.— This great crowd, however, occasioned some confu sion, but the Grand Vizier restored order by pro mising them the return of their tutor." AWFULLY SUDDEN I)EATII.—On Friday last, Mr. Robert Masson, of Park-place, Islington, (the senior churchwurden of that parish), attended a sale by Mr. Shuttleworth, at the Auction Mart, of the cellar of wines belonging to a gentleman of High bury, and while shaking hands with a friend who had just entered the room, fed back in a fit—medi cid aid was instuntly procured, but every attempt at resuscitation was ineffectual.—The deceased was highly respected, was in the prime of life, and appa rently in very robust health. The shock occasioned in the rem by this melancholy occurrence was so great, as to entirely stop the sole for a very const able time. On Wednesday morning, as the mail coach was proceeding up Framwellgate, Durham, to the North, one of the leaders, a valuable horse, the property of Mr. We'd, of the Waterloo Inn, dropped down and died almost instantly, A hedge-sparrow's nest, with eggs, was found at Horsley, near GuildfOrd, last week ; a singular pr oof of the mildness of the bt:LIS:•11. ~. a ;: vs • '1 r -•••1110. • , _ ~. -~---
