A Meeting has been advertised to be held at Bir• ',gingham this cloy, on the subject of a more equal audition Wilmot Representation : notice was handed to the Clerk of the Pears for the county. The place of assembling is New Hall-hill, and the time three o'clock in the afternoon. Ms* CARTWRIGHT, Sir CIIAII.IIII WoUELZV, Mr. Wunza, and other distinguished Reformers will be present on the occa sion. Whoa we could', that the above great town contains a hundred thousand inhabilsols, and that the place is unrepresented in Par Utmost, while Old Serum, Gallon, and many other places almost without any inbebitaots at all, send two Members each to Parliament, we cannot bet wonder t►at each o disgraceful proscription has beets allowed to nisi. Nothing bet the grossest ignorance as the one side, sod the basest injustice oaths other, could have allowed this degrading eacisaioo es well in respect to Manchester, Sheffield, and other places, as Bit. mlogham, exist so long. We trust it is near to its end. The melancholy less of Madame BLANCIMAID pole us lo mind of the same ecch'ent which beret the Moogolfier balloon of Mr. Routie In PILATRE, some years back, when, by its tsiOng 6re, this philo. sephic Gentlemen and his companion were precipi. toed to the earth and dashed to pieces is the neigh. beathood of Calais. -- - We shall inknowledge the ingenuity of the Coto. rkr, if be can bring the long list of Oankrepte which appeared in Saturday Night's Gaulle, es an induce of the flourishing condition of the country.

We could really wish this may be the case with re6ard to the American Caplets pettiog to instant death a deserter willful the form of any trial whatever. — Thal the Americans ars reputed to tell merrelloss stories sometimes cannot be denied ; bet we are new to believe that any Officer of that reentry *odd, even to the middle of a fierce war, commit such an outrage en humanity es to order a soldier to be shot its the manner described by the New rub Evening Post : our is it easier to he believed that • Liestenant in the same service west I !MOW the order If given to bio.—(See the Report its another part of Ms Priser.)

That there are Americans angry with their coentry,sad ate ready to tell stories of their country men, are circumstances not unlikely : bet we do hope that such persons are not allowed to invent and pro. parte such defamatory acts whitest being made ame nable for them. Persons who know nothing of Mr. Owci's plan, and yet desire to throw a discredit over it, speak of its being ululated to torn Eaglet, into one east poorhouse. This is a violent distortion of the bene volent scheme ; hot even taking them at their word, be would deserve much credit and gratitede, foe the poor are encreesing in number every day, in so much that they will presently have no hewing et all. We aught it right to lay before our Readers the snout, which will be found in another column, of certain harsh transactions which have taken place in Pensacola with respect to deserters. We gave the , statement simply as it appeared in the American Pe- per, and the same earnestness for troth and hew deity iodine, us to caution ear Readers apiast trotting to any sentiments which may be incited within then from reeding the comments of the Tuxes on this affair. The spirit of Slopisas still haunts the office of that Joined, though the cursing is net so biller as was wont to be in the days of the Dotter ; America is ono of its permanent provocations ; hence the apostrophe of coodelence which the writer in scribed not long ago to the wolves sod foxes and Red Indians on the danger of their being displaced by the tide of savage emigrating which was rolling westward; hence also the present rapid and most probably anjest condone's, which be has now adopted upon the first party statement of the above case. The account is half discredited already by the Savannah Republican, and from that Journal it up. pears that there is yet even in America an infra.

Fooling Poal of the 14th ult.:—et Report states, that an order was recently issued in Florida, by Col. Krim, to pet to Instant death, without the delay or forms of a trial, any deserter that was takes. That, to consequence, • witty ender the command of Lies tease --, went in movie of a man of this de. ecription, whom they overtook ,• that they informed the prisoner of the nature of their orders, and their readiness to encore them. Ile firmly ',postulated with the Officer, demanded a trial, claiming his rights as a ease and an American citizen ; but, finding his espostolations vein, he kaelt down and received the fatal ballet in his breast. " In another instance, it is reported, that, in the Alabama territory, a soldier was condemned by his Officer. as a midmost for intesication, to be docked; which was executed on the spot, and car ried to that excess. that the maw was literally drowned. This order was also leased without the form of trial. "At Greenbabon the western side of Lake Mich'• gen,the military, as the same report slates, has assumed • completecootrool over the civil authority. Citizens have been taken up for real or pretended offeoces, have been tried by Courts-Martial, and the potash. anent of what is called pis/rating inflicted open them: that is ' by placing the culprit on four wooden pins drove firmly in the greeted, with the points exposer; above the ground a half or quarter of an inch : over these he is suspended by cords festened to the thumbs, and when be can no longer sustain himself In the air, be most let his weight divan en the pin." The National Intelligencer does net contradict this account of the seminary manner in which Republi. taus administer justice, bet only " hopes that it may prove false and slaoderoos." The rumours respecting • misanderstanding be. tween Sweden, Denmark, end Russia, are strongly corr..borated by the movements of troops on both sides. The King of SWEDEN has a camp at Smola, where be himself resides ; and the Emperor Axsz. mines has ordered the formation of three camps is Finland. towards which the troops are audios, end the Emperor Is expected to review them there.— The fort of Studs was supposed to be chosen for the purpose of overawing the Danes, who were disputing a short time back shoot the Norwegian debt ; bet as the payment of that debt was (according to official announcements in the Swedish Journals) arranged by negotiations in Londoo, the keeping up the force and the presence of its Royal General looks very like some apprehension of attack from Russia, droves It might not be thought politic to show any fear or see. pldeo by moving nearer to the Rossi', frontier. Seocituotia, Jinn 4i.—Lest week Mr. St. Grown, Secretory to the English Legation, set of i en courier for Scuts. They talk of an approaching journey of Lord STRAND/ORD. Vas Minister does not reside at the country seat of Belle-see, wl ch his Majesty offered to him, and in which he was established last summer." It is stated in letters from Italy, that the retest visit of the Austrian Emperor to Italy, was for the' purpose of sounding the dispositions of the Holy College, respecting the views his Majesty has on the legations, which he is desirous of obtaining, as also some other good things in Italy ; nay, it is averted, that he emends hi. projects on Rome itself. after the death of the Port, when perhaps Prince Murree. toms will for hie marry rivets be appointed the heed of the Sacred College. The Aestrien Emperor bas conceived these projects on account of the Emperor ALEXANDER% intention to restore the kingdom of Poland to its former greatness; and In that Case, Austria will be called upon to cede Gallicis. Ac cording to the latest emirate from Russia, three camps are formed in Finland, under the command of the Greed Duke NictIOLAII. The Emperor Axes /401R is arrived et Warsaw. The assembling of a formidable Ressler' Army Is Finland and in Poland looks ominous. The operations of the last week at the Stock Es change have been chiefly confined to speculation, sod therefore afford on jest criterion of the real bias of the money market. The prices, on th e avenge, have bent lower than on the preceding week—an effect produced by the sales of money stock, mode for the Impose of assist* some banking establishments in' different parts of the kingdom, who had deemed it prudent to be prepared for the consequences of a roe upon them. Thus the few transactions not arising from 'peculation, have tended to farther the views of that body of speculators, now by far the most pow. tofu', who are endeavouring to depress tb funds. Bat, however powerful this body may be, the up. preach of the settlement of the account, which takes place on Friday nett, is said to have caused as alarm among them, amply justified by the extent of their transactions. As the stock sold is many time, greater in anaemia than they would be able, if called upon, to deliver, (end they cannot be sure that no such cell will be made,) the seitliog.day may be fatal to many of them; indeed, it is well known th it the opposite party, under the persuasion of this ever-specolation, are raising money in every direction, and otherwise preparing themselves to demand the delivery of the stock they have bought. The speculators for a fall will then be compelled to purchase stock, in order to deliver ir, and as such compulsory purchases tweet fail to raise she market, they will thee be forced to mend the views of their opponents. The alarm among them is said to have been evident on Thursday and Friday last, and to have been the more imme diate cause for the improvement in the price of stock which took place in those days. °anion+ closed on Saturday et a discount of # per cent.; and in Consols fur the opening the last price was 694.—(Englisk• mon.)

Now. Sir these great Captains may receive twenty shillings s .dey, during plain sailing, end honest JACK one shilling a.day, in ;alp sailing. Thus, is plain sailing, a Captain is worth twenty JAW.
