The test of experience Is the gua rantee of favour, end has established WARREN's BLACK ING in learral estimation : of which there exists not a s'ronger proof then the tacit acknowledgment of a host of servile imita tors, who surreptitiously obtrude on the unwary a spurious preparation as the genuine artiele, to t"e great di.appointment et the engearded purchaser, and manifest injury of un cn, R whose character and interest by this Iniquitous system are (meshy subject to detriment. it becomes therefore an indis pensable duty to caution the Poblic against the manceurres of unprincipled Venders, who having no character to lose, and stimulated by avarice in their nefarious pursuits,, aim at the acquisition of money through any medium than that of honor l The orialsial and matchless Blacking b urn on each bottle a sheet direction, with the signature ROBERT WARREN. All ethers see coun'erfelts ; and in many instances the imposition labels are artfully Interlined with a different aidress. in very small characters, between the more conspicuous ones of "No. 10." and " Strand." It is earnestly recommended to Sh• ?- keepers and others who are deeelved by base fabrications of Warren's Blacking, to return the detected trash to the source whence it came, and expose the machinations of rascality to 'irked obloquy. W•11/11N 5 BLACKING is surpassingly brilliant ; it excludes damp; gives pliancy to the leather ; retains its pristiae virtue ia all climates ; and, combining elegance .with comfort, is an article equally of indispensable fashion and utility.

QR. PER QR. [Dividends, de. To-morrow.] MR. CANNING AT PLYMOUTH. A Special Meeting of the Corporation of Plymonth was held on Wednesday, to present the Freedom of the Borough to Mr. Canning. About twelve o'clock Mr. Canning entered the Hall, amidst the loudest acclamations. accompanied by the Re corder, Sir W. Elford, Bart. who had been waiting to re ceive him. Mr. Canning having taken his seat next the Mayor, the Recorder delivered an appropriate Address, which we have not room to insert. The Recorder, at the conclusion of his speech, presented the Right Honourable Gentleman with the Patent, enclosed in a handsome box, cut tint of a very fine block of the Breakwater marble, richly set in silver, when _ _ _ Mr. CANNING rase, and delivered the fallowinz speech (for which we are indebted to the Plymouth I cckly Jour:TAO:— " Mr. Mayor and .tientlemen—l accept with thattlanl. nec,,, and with greater satisfaction than I CSA uprose. this fist erior testimony of your ;food opinion and good sritl. I must aid, that the Taint of el..

But, Gentlemen, unuteri'est obloquy seklom fails of an a•lequete though perhaps ter 1 , • comprns:tion. J must think myself, as my lion. retie.% has Paid, eminently fortunate, if such compensation,aS he describes, has (Alen to me at an earlier period than t ' many others; if I dare flatter myself (as his partiality flattered me), that the sentiments you are kind enough t • entertain for, are in unis...n with those of the country—:. • in addition to the justice done me by my friends, I may. he has assured me, rely upon a candid coatruction, et.' .1 from political opponent.. " But, Gesttlemen, the secret of itch a result da.s rot lie deep. It consists only in an honest and undevistiof pursuit of what one conscientiously believes to be one'e pnblic duty ; a pursuit which, sternly continued.. will. •however detached and separate parts of a man's condm t may be viewed r.nder the influence of partialities or prej dices, obtain file it, when considered as a whole. the appro.. bation of all honest and iunoutable minds. Any man to .7 7 occasionally he mistaken as to the means most conducive t the end which he has in view; but if the end be jnst praiseworthy, it is by that be will he ultimately ;mir ed, either by his contemporaries or by posterity.—(Mutts. applause.) Gentletrien, the end which I confess I have always had view, and which appears to me the legitimate object of pm - suit to a British Statesman, I can describe in one, word.. The language of modern philosophy is wisely and benevolent, it professes the perfection of our species, t the amelioration of the lot of all mankind. Gentlemen, I hope that my heart heats as high for the c neral interest humanity—hope that I have as friendly a disposition t'- wards other nations of the earth as any one who vaunts philanthropy most highly, bnt I am contented to confess that, in the condnct of political affairs. the grand object my contemplation is the interest of England.—(%l t.. 4 applause.) " Not, tientlemen, that the interest of England is si interest which stands isolated and alone. The situ s'i.. which she holds forbids an exclusive selfishness ; her pr ••- perity must contribute to the prosperity of other na'i and her stability to the safety of the world.—(Burss: • ,* applause.)—Put intimately connected as we are with t •.• • system of Europe. it does not follow that we are therefor t cal!ed upon to mix ourselves on every occasion, wit!' •t restless and meldling activity, in the conceras of the nal; . which surround us. It is upon a just balance of contllct..• duties, and of rival but sometimes incompatible - ' vantages, that a Government must judge when to p t forth its strength, and when to husband it fur occAsious to come. " Our ultimate object must be the peace of the wort!. That object may sometimes lie bes attained by proima exertions—sometimes by abstinence from interposi•its in contests which we cannot prevent. It is upon th., • principles that, as has been most tenly observed by my • worthy friend, it did not appear to the government of Ors country . to be necessary that Great. Britain silo ;I I mingle in the recent contest between France and Sp -o-(Applausts.) " Your worthy Recorder has accorstely classed • persons who world have driven ns into that contest. The/ - were undoubtedly among them those who desired to plug • this counrry into the difficolti , a of war, partly from ilos hope that trines ditlienhies world overwhelm the Ailtniti;- stration ; het it would be most unjust not to admit, dr there were others who were actuated by nobler princiol. . and more generous feeling', who would have rushed for ward at once from the sense of indignation at aggressioa, and who deemed that no act of injustiee could be perpe trated from one end of the uni to the other, bat the! the sword of Great Britain should leap from its sc Abbey,' to avenge it.—(Applause)—But as it is the province of law to controol the etcess, even of laudable passion: and propensities in individuals, so it is the duty of Government to restrain within due bounds the ebullition of national sentiment, and to regulate the course and direction of impulses which it cannot blame. Is thee. any one among the latter class of persons described briny Honourable Friend (for to the former I have nothing to say) who continues to doubt whether the Government did wisely in declining to obey the precipitate enthusiasm which prevailed at the commencement of the contest in Spain ? (Applause.) Is there any body who does not now think. that it was the oilier of the Government to examill,! more closely all the various bearings of so implicated a question, to consider whether they were called upon to assist a united nation, or to plunge themselves into the internal feuds, by which that nation was divided—to aid in repelling a foreign invader, or to take part in a civil war. (Applause.) Is there any man that does not now see what would have been the extent of burdens that would havo been cast upon this country ? Is there any one who d res not acknowledge that under such circumstances,•the ea terprize would have been to he characterized only by a term borrowed from that part of the Spanish literatere with which we are most familiar—Quixotic—an enter ; prize romantic in its origin, and thankless in the end: (Much applause.) " But while we thus controul even our feelings by 'site duty, let it not be said that we cultivate peace either because we see fear, or because we are unprepared for war; on the contrary, if eight months ago the Government did not hesitate to proclaim that the country was prepared for war if war should unfortunately be necessary, every month of peace that has since past, has but made us so much the more capable of exertion. The resources created by peace, ate means of war. (Applause.) In cherishing those resoorci we but accumulate those means. Oar present repose k more a proof of inability to act, than the state of inertness and inactivity in which I have seen those mighty masses that float in the waters above your town, is a proof they are devoid of strength, and incapable of being fitted for action.
