efollll6. ....41Ctl w itllo4ll disgust. The people . ..anise King James would not give skein a free Part lumen. , and were the people not tube allowed to meet In peace to consider the question of Reform ? The Revolution was mole to procure a free Par liament. The people did not wish fur Revolution, but to meet and ask for a free Parliament. In that effort they were opposed by force, and the answer they reefiVeli was a charge et dragoons. The lawyers were then prepared to support the attacks, by saying Reform Meetings were unlawful, but the peo ple would prove in this instance the best lawyers. The I.IIW Au thorities only endeavoured to prove they were right, and the peo ple wrong. There was a prestriptiblo right which could nut 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 done. He did not know of any excesses. No excesses had taken place.-lCriiai of No, no.) Major Cartwright had brought a million of signatures to Petitions calling for Reform. These were deseribeil to he the result of a conspiracy, and when they held public meetings to petition conAitutionally, they were to be dispersed with 6A:l.s. Out of 13s Acts of Parliament, passed last Session, there was not one that had the effect of enlarging the privileges of the People.—Ninety were called Private Acts, mid they were so private that the Country would never hear of any be nefit arising from them. The misapplicatioa of the public mo • ney during the proceedings is Parliament was too obvious. Five hundred thousand pounds had been taken from the public to go to the Torrid Zone—to fight with jackalle and tigers, and with the Caffres. slaves and savages of the Fish River. (Loud ap plause.) Mr. Hobliouse concluded by saying, it was the duty of the Meeting to petition the Priam Regent. and say they were not satisfied with his Ministers, who had wade deep inroads in the liberties of the people, wise were resulted, by paper and legal proceedings, to obtain free F.eprerentation ia the Commons Houle of Pe..liament.—The Address, he said, he should have tile lie. your to read. (Loud applause.) Sir Francis Burdett then put the Resolutions, which were se verally carried by shew of hands. Mr. Ilubhonse then read the Address, which was agreed to with loud applause. The Meeting was afterwards addressed by Mr. Thclwall sr.d Mr. Peter Walker, after which thanks were votA to Sir Freicis Burdett and Mr. llobliouse, each of whom tilanked the Meeting for the honour, and the business of tire Meeting having thus sa tisfarorily and peaceably concludedoSir Francis Boehm and Mr. llobhouse mounted their home and rode off with speed, as seve ral of the peop!ri had proposal to carry theist on their shoulders to the house orSir 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 swarsoin ,, 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 mendicity, no diminution of crime can be expected. Idleness is certainly the root of all cvi!, and beggars for 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 fur the last five weeks, been in the habit of of fering to every beggar that came 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 stool ready for use, it is a fact, that out of cig,hty beggars who presented themselves, only two embraced the offer.—Leyris paper. An American journal contains the following jnt d'esprit 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 bacon, or suspend their operations. Should bacon be substituted for specie as a circulating raetlium, it is thought that Irish potatoes Fright be advantage ously used for small change." . . \lunday 1110111111 g last, at mill:past three. a boat's crew bel.inging to the Pievenine St aim.. at II the, In Kent, consi,ting of Lieutenant Ldward F iverinan, It. N. and six brave ft 'boys, were unfortunate le oret at sea, by two of the men getting to leeward of the boat, when all were left to the mercy of the waves. One poor fellow of Ilte 11.1111 e 111 I tall, in lalsourina to save his command er's life, lost his owti. It was with the greAtest difficulty I.lle crew were saved, being completely exhausied, having been in the Water . nearly half all hour. Lieutenant ertnan was brought to shore perfectly insensible ; and had is not been for the skilful exertio ns of a sowing on t h e spot, he croild not 'possibly have sutficed, as he was fur two boors 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 oargo of teas, under a Portuguese Captain only, and without soy papers whatever on board, though it is known she was lately at Batavia, with a supercargo and a mate, the firmer an Englishman, of the name of Macfarlane, and the latter an Ame rican, neither of whom have since been heard of, and it is supposed have been murdered at sea by the Por tuguese crew, who. afterwards ran the ship on shore intentionally. It is said her cargo and rigging have been all saved and safely landed, and seized by the Custom-house, 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 percargo and mate. She was conjectured to be En glish property. It is in the contemplation of the Magistracy of Essex to ereet u new county gaol or penitentiary, for the classification of offenders. The spot propo sed for the site of the building is on the estate of Lady Mildmay, at Springfield, opposite the Govern ment Depot. The expence of completing the work is estimated at fitly thousand pounds. By advises from the Mauritius, dated May I I, we hear that a Dutch ship of 80 guns, lrden with spices, has been lost on the Island of Diego Garcia. A Commissary-General, an Admiral, and 100 men, had arrived at the T4auritiva, and 200. men remain ed on the Island. • . fart observed mat the twat important (at.. slat truly Important it was) was the extended use of salt in feeding made: its excellence was established be yond 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 Leen tried :—A compost was made in the proportion of 15 tons of soil, and half a ton of salt 12 garden pots were filled ; the Ist with the soil only ; the 21, in the proportion of I quirt of com post to 11 of toil ; the Cd, 2 quarts of compost to t of soil ; and so on in the like gradations until the 12th or last pot contained the pure mixture of the first made compost. In order to compare the pro gress still inure, one pot was filled with a mixture of dung and earth, and another pot with the pro.: portioa of eleven and one ofeompost. The fourteen pots were sown et the same time with turnips. TLe 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 turniiss not a doubt remained in the mind of any one, that the composition of one pal salt to forty-one of earths produced a compost highly beneficial, that we 3 about nine per cent. stronger than Lai-water. SINGULta Fonor.TretwEss—During the past week, a gentleman, having ularge black portman teau with Lira, arrived at the Globe-inn, in Bridge water, which place lie.left on the ensuing day frr Taunton, by the Bath coach. On his arrival at Taunton, upon claiming his luggage, the portman. teau, which was placed on the omich when he took his place at •Bridgewater, was produced; all know. ledge of which the traveller w..rtnly 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 iu the coach, he instantly posted back to Ilidgewater, 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 atteadants attempted to prove the one produced to be the same as was brought to their house by the enraged claimant, who angrily replied—" Don't you think I ought to know my own portmanteau? I 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 afford 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 Nfonclay. 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 be raised up so as to discover (when required) a height of above 40 fret, and the last row of the one-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• Justice Abbott, who re ceived the rudiments of his education at that semi miry, and proceeded frum thence on the foundation to the linivers.ty. His Lordship attended the speeches at the school, and afterwards officiated as one of the stewards, and dined cc ith the members and friends or the society, ut the Fountain tavern. The reply of his Lordship on h:s health being drank, evidently evinced the sensibility which the recollec tion of his juvenile years had excited. An Act of Parliament has unexpectedly appeared, dated lath 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, and the Is. 4d. of duty which was paid last year, make in all the enormous dut♦ of Ss. 6.1. per bushel upon all malt made after the sth July last. The consequence of this must be, that the maltaters must be under the necessity of abstaining from making any purchases of beer er big;, (the pro duce of this country,) and procure from England barley, which will very materially affect the agricul tural interest in Scotland. And as the brewers are net permitted by law .to charge more than ss. per anker for table beer, the public cannot be supplied with that useful and necessary beverage to the low er classes of society.—Scoich paper. During the recent Archiepiscopal visitation in the county of Kent, his G ace the Arcl.bishop of Canterbury confirmed, in the tours of his tour, nearly twclvc thousand individuals.
