Since our Observations of last week, every day 'has tended more and more to-establish the doctrines we then laid down on the subject of those popilar Commotionswhialoltave so such eagagail tkelastiss. tion of the country for some time past ; ae-shew on one hand the folly of the alarms attempted tobe ex cited, and on - the other the wickedness of those who would have gladly made them instrumental to pur poses of encroachment upon the little we still enjoy of civil Freedom. Nay, the very seizure of liar- Tison, at the acme of popular phrenzy, wits found inadequate to the purposetf creating a Riot, and as -there was neither an old stocking filled with balls, nor a single pinch of gunpowder detected in any body's snuff-box, as Mr. Oliver has declined busi .ness, and retired into a quiet corner tif Norfolk to live like a gentleman, not even a tolerable farce, and -wool less a tragico-contico piece oF five acts, rot ti!o amusement of some, the misery eZothers, and the be -rick of his Majesty's servants could be produced. •The good men of Cheshire have sworn upon the al tar of their valour to defend their King and support the dignity of the Crown, and thoir Lord Li,..ate atant has published a meet flaming Manifesto, and called upun the Lord Lieutenant of Yorkshire to fellow him in this path of duty. Lord Fitravilliam, ; however, was too add and experienced a bird to be ..caught in an palpable a snare, and again made the tool of ahridgiug or suspending the Liberties of his Conntrs. Government has also sanctioned the forinatien of volunteer corps fir: the protection of Manchester and Salfiird, as if the enormous military et tablishment previously on foot was not either ade quate or disposeable fur the dispersion, if it should be necessary, of a wretched and paltry rabble. But a little time has alas effected wonders in another respect, it has enabled the lies and exaggerations of the Ministerial papers to meet with that conviction of their falscluxxls which is sure to overtake then at last, though unfortunately the mischief they pro duce has sometimes taken place before the' antidote to the poison could be administered. No one can;for get how Lord Fitzw'iUiatn himself was duped upon the last suspension of the Liberties of Englishmen, and "how vainly be afterwards had reason to deplore his error, when a minute and personal examination of the state of his own county had enabled him to ascertain that truth witick had been so grossly and vcandaiously distorted. Yes, the deliriont of the moment has subsided, but the misery which led to it 'till ne fear remains. The harvest expected to be 4;atlicrecl irma it by those wi:o fatten upon such oil's' has eviirtly failed. Lord Castlereagh cannot even Julie for the plaudits of listening senates on having put down reb,:iiion, tier can his beloved as. sociate Mr. Canning again exercise the humanity of his eloquence upon the ruptured and metered. But though these poor and deluded wretches arc now partly by the laws of the land, and partly from the +ewe of their own late follies iuduced to abandon their Meetings, and to withhold the expreseiosaof their disco n tent, yet it wild deeply behove both Go vernment and the Leei;latare not to'be unmindfid of the spirit, that will still anlan though forbidden loudly to complain, and to apply themselves to.re away those evils which it is impossible either to de kwl or to disguise. Let them give to the l%se and populous places in which these disturbances, if so they will have-them calletl, have taken place, that fair power of choosing representatives which Mr. Pitt himself proposed. Taxation without Repro -seication tore from us America, and the principle upon which that secession was estaliiishal is now stosimppipigho . ollo.4mme4been ltinc. Let short. ceennoniise fhe'llevenue so as ts-relievethe pores chines from a weight of public-contributions which crusbei them to the very earth, and renders their scanty earnings of hnt little comparative value in the market or in the shop. Let them di minish by resolute and vigorous retrenchment the magnitude of our public debt, which in proportion as it is paid off will find its way into other and mrre productive channels ; diffilsing employ ment, fumkhing . subsistence , sad promoting that content and happiness for which Englishmen were once .s 3 eminently distinguished, ?nd which then rendered their love of their King, their veeeratitin fife their Laws, and their attachment to their Country ratnetl and envied by every region of the earth.— Then, and not till then, let them boast of having secured tranquillity, or prefer their claims to grafi- tude and support.

Lancaster, (Penn ), June 29.—Lerge Snake.-- A strange circumstance is said to have taken plasma, few days since in the neighbourhood of this city. A woman passing arms a path through a rye field, rat down on the side of the path, when immediately she was seized mond the waist by n ht.ge black snake, which raised its frightful head in a threatening at titude, mouth open, on a Jewel with .her thee, with its eyes fixed upon tier countenance. The -screams of the woman brought a black man to her assistance. who resolutely grasped the monster by the neck with one hand, and with the other seized its tail, and while unwinding . its coils, the woman, by his directions, took a knife from his pocket, and ‘• off went the reptile's head." The relations we have heard of this wonder differ from ea.+ other, but is no (..;onsidentble degree ; from one •thiree we are it:- formed the snake weighed upwards ut 50 puutidb.— American Paper. The Afantbester Obterver has recommended the *biotic inhabitants of Manchester to raise a sub scription fiir Mr. Henry Hunt, on accmmt " of his having been harrassed in the Courts of Law, in eon sequense ttf his so conspieuously taking part with the ltatlinalateformers." We do not !mow how fir the appeal will be successful or not, litti as a good patriot he‘should rather have the subscription made thr the distressed manufacturers and their families.
