Meetings, we understand, will be imatediately held in the Parishes of Twickenham, isieswortb, and Heston, Middlesex, for the purpose of petitioning, separately, against the Property Tax. A meeting was held in the Shire- Hail, Stafford, on the 241 instant, for the purpose of taking into cousi• deration the propriety of petitioning Parliament spina the continuance or renewal of the Property Tax. The business of the day was carried snap wtously, except in one Instance; when it was Pro posed, in consequeuce of there being only about 20 or 30 persons present, that the Resolutions should be passed in their names, and not as the Resolutions of the town generally : this objection was over ruled, and the Resolutions were passed as originally proposed.

Cork, Louth, Carlow, Kilkenny, and Galway, have adopted Resolutions, stating the in jury to agriculture from the great reduction in the price of corn, and earnestly recommending the sub ject to the early consideration of Parliament.
