The prowle roar in arms, because Kinx dames would not give them a flee l'arisatneett, mid ur re the people not to he allotted to meet In pence to consider the question of Reform ? The Rtvidati 0000 was mode to procure n free Par liament. The people did not wish for Ilevolidion. but to meet and ask fur a free Parliament. In that Kiwi they were imposed_ by forms, and IbP answer they received a ns n elf- r.,e -of dragoons. The lawyers were then prepared to support the tittieits. by retying Reform Alectiniss were unlawful, but the lasi. pie would prove in this insteoce the best lawyers. The Law A 3. thoritiss wily endeavoured to prove they were right, and the peo ple wrong. 'There was a prescriptible right which could not be denied the people, and that right they ought to exercise-It had been said the excesses of the Reformers justified Ministers in what they had dour. !le did not know of any excesses. No excesses had taker place.-!Cries of No, no.) Mejor Cartwright had brought a millson of signatures to Petitions calling for Reform. These were described to be the result of a conspiracy, and when they held public meetings to petition consf , tutionally. they were to be dispersed with sabres. Out of 13$ Acts of Pi.rlirment, passed 'oast Session, there was not one that had the effezt of enlarging the privileges of the People.—Ninety were called Private Acts, and they were so private that the Country would never lima of any be nefit arising from them. The misapplication of the public me ney during the proceedings in Parliament was too obvious. Five hundred thousand pounds had been ti.icen from the public to go to the Turrid Zone—to fight with jackalls and tigers, and with the Caffres. slaves and savages of the Fish River. (Loud ap plause.) Mr. Hobhoase concluded by saying, it was the ditty af the Meeting to petition the Prince Regent, and say they were not satisfied with his Ministers, who had nide deep inroads in the liberties of the people, who were resolved, by proper and legal proceedings, to obtain free Representation in the (:oninions House of Parlianient.—The Address, he said, he should have the ho nour to read. (Loud applause.) Sir Francis Burdett then put the Resolutions, which were se verally carried by skew of hands. Mr. Ilobhouse then read the Address, which was agreed to wilt loud applause. The Meeting was afterwards addressed by Mr. Thclwall and Mr. Peter Walker. after which thanks were voted to Sir Francis Burden and Mr. Hobhouse. each of whom thanked the Meeting for the honour, and the business of the Meeting having thus bit tisfactorily and peaceably concluded, Sir Francis Budett and Mr. Ilobhouse mounted their horses and rode off with speed, as seve ral of the peopis had proposed to carry them on their shoulders to the house of Sir Francis Burdett.

It has been remarked, and with great truth, that when, in most places, hands were wanting to assist in getting in the harvest, the country was swarming with sturdy, able-bodied beggars, and that while these vagabonds are suffered, with impunity, to range the country at large in the practice of their inendicity, no diminution of crime can be expected. Idleness is certainly the root of all evil, and beggars 14 the most part are such from inclination, and not from necessity ; and of this we have lately had ample proof in our own country, and particularly at Arun del, where a shopkeeper, living nigh to the river, had for the lust five weeks, been in the habit of of , tering to every beggar that cane along, a shilling to water the pavement, &c. in front of his house, and although it was not more than an hour's work, and the watering pot stood ready tbr use, it is a fact, that out of eighty beggars who presented themselves, only two embraced the otter.—Lewis paper. An American journal contains the following feu d'espril on the want of specie in the Western States: " From the absence of specie, it is thought that some of the Western Banks will have to pay their notes in baron, or suspend their operations. Should bacon be substituted for specie as a circulating medium, it is thought that Irish potatoes might be advantage ously used for small change." Alontlay morning Lust, at ha!f•past three. a boat's crew belonging to the Preventive Station, at Hyatt., in Kent, consisting of Lieutenant Edward Fayerman, R. N. and six brave fellows, were unfortunately upset at sea, by tw o of the men getting to leeward of the boat, when all were left to the mercy of the waves. One poor fellow of the name of Hall, in labouring to save his command.' er's life, lost his own. I t was with the (iretitest difficulty the crew were saved, being completely exhausted, having been in the water nearly half an hour. Lieutenant Fa) erman was brought to !thole perfectly insensible ; and had it not been for the skilful exertions of a surgeon on the spot, he could not possibly have survived, as he was for two hours to all appearance dead. A brig, under Portuguese colours, is now on shore at Table-bay, under very extraordinary circumstan ces. She arrived there from the East Indies with a valuable cargo of teas, under a Portuguese Captain only, and without any papers whatever on board, though it is known she was lively at Batavia, with a supercargo and a mate, the former an Englishman, of the name of Macfarlane, and the !latter an Ame rican, neither of whom have since been heanl of, and it is supposed have ken murdered at sea by the Por tuguese crew, who afterwards ran the ship on shore intentionally. It is said her cargo and rigg ing have been all saved and safely landed, and seized by the Custom-hot :e, at Cape-town ; and although several examinations have taken .place of the Portuguese crew, nothing can be made out as to whom the ves sel or cargo belonged, or what has become of the su pereargo.und mate. She was conjectured to be En-1 glish property. It is in the contemplation of the Magistracy, of Essex to erect a new county gaol or penitentiary, for the classificutitm of ofvutlers. The spot propo sed for the site of the building is on the estate of Lady Mildewy, at Springfield, opposite thc Govern ment Depot. The expence of completing the work is estimated at fitly thousand 'annuls. By advic.;:s from the Mauritius, dated May 11, we hear that a Dutch ship of 80 guns, laden with spices, has been lost on •the Island of Diego Garcia. A Commissary-General, an Admiral, and 100 men, had arrived at the Mauritius, and 200 men remain ed on the Island. 291 SALT AS MANURE, Stc.—ME. Curwen, in his Lte speech at the Agricultural Meeting at Worlington, adverted to the proceedings at his celebrated Schory , 2- farm, observed that the most important (and most truly important it was) was the extended use of set in feeding cattle: its excellence was established yoad the reach of doubt. It remained, however, very dubious, whether salt was or was not capable of being used as a manure. The following experi ment has been tried :—A compost was made in tha proportion of 15 tons of soil, and half a ton of salt; le garden pots were filled; the Ist with the soil only ; the 2d, in the proportion of 1 quart of com post to 11 of soil:; the .;tl, ‘.2 quarts of compost to tO of soil ; and so on in the like gradations until the 19. th or last pot contained the pure mixture of the first made compost. In order to compare the pro gress still more, one pot was filled with a mixture of dung and earth, and another pot with the pro portion of eleven and one of compost. The fourteen pots were sown at the fame time with turnips. The appearance of the plants was greatly in favour of the dung and earth for a considerable time. As the plants got strength, those with a smaller portion of salt became evidently the strongest and most vi gorous. In the number who viewed the turnips not a doubt remained in the mind of any one, that the composition of one part salt to forty-one of earth produced a compost highly beneficial, that was about nine per cent. stronger than sea-water. SINGULAR Fottorrectsess—During the past week, a gentleman, having a large black portman teau with him, arrived at the Globe-inn, in Bridgc water, which place he left on the ensuing day tiir• Taunton, by the Bath coach. On his arrival at Taunton, upon claiming his luggage, the portman teau, which was placed on the coach when he took his place at Bridgewater, was produced ; all know ledge of which the traveller warmly denied, stating that the box produced did not bear the slightest si milarity to his own : and upon being assured that there was no other in the coach, be instantly posed back to Bridgewater, taking with him the doubtful luggage. On arriving at the Globe-inn, the land lord and waiters were summoned, from whom he demanded, in accents not over mild, the production of his own portmanteau, which he stated contained many valuable matters. In vain the landlord and his attendants attempted to prove the one produced to be the same as was brought to their house b 3 the enraged claimant, who angrily replied—" Don't you think I ought to know my own portmanteau ? will take my oath this is not mine!' 'Having de scribed the contents of his lost treasure, the landlord proposed opening the trunk in dispute, as it might :And the means of discovering its real owner, who might have taken the one missing, leaving his own by mistake. Upon opening it, the landlord and his men were astonished by the following exclamation from their positive claimant—" What a d—d fool have I made myself; it is my own portmanteau af ter all ! Covent-garden Theatre opens next Monday. .A grand improvement, we are informed, has been made on the stage, by a bold and ingenious piece of ma chinery: .the whole proscenium can now he raised up so as to discover (when required) a height of above 40 feet, and the List row of the roue-shilling gallery can have a perfect view of the most extensive scene of spectacle. The meeting of the King's School Feast Society in Canterbury, on Thursday was honoured by the presence of-the Lord Chief•Juftice Abbott, who re ceived the rudiments of his education at that semi nary, and proceeded from thence on the foundation to the University. His Lordship attended the speeches at the school, and afterwards officiated as one of the stewards, and dined with the members and friends of the society, at the Fountain tavern. The reply of his I.ordship on his health being drank, evidently evinced the sersibility •which the =Mice tion aids juvenile years had excited. An Act of Parliament has unexpectedly appeared, dated 12th July, imposing a duty of Is. per bushel on all grain (beer as well as barley) malted after the sth July, which in addition to the Is. 2d. the bushel late imposed; anti the Is. 4.. d. of duty which was paid last year, mike in all the enormous duty of 3s. 63. per bushel upon all malt made after the sth July last. The consequence of this must be, than the maltsters must be under the necessity of abstaining from making any purchases of beer or bin., (the pro duce of this country,) and procure from England burley, which will very materially affect the agricul tural interest in Scotland. And as the brewers are not permitted by law to clev-ge more than ss. per anker , tbr table beer, the public cannot be supplied with that useful and necessary beverage to the law. er classes of society.—Scotch paper. During the recent Archiepiscopal visitation in the county of Kent, his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury confirmed, in the ,entirse of hip tlur, nearly twelve tliensvul
