" It is difficult to conceive the policy of taxing beer in excess, not only bees... it is home produce .. bet be- IT lesee,..-_ very materially: comequently lessens the produce. it Is obvious. therelbre, that by repealing the tat on malt, and malt liquors. a great roesumption would be a an& eient motive to the farmer, to sow a greater quantity of bailey ; and the a greater stock would, of course, be at ways rea , ti r i . , supply the deficiency occasioned by dearth. government at the same time could se.' peed malting atiA brewing without, m well as with, WI duty upon their results; and with this farther advantages that such a suspension would not effect the revenue. The most effectual measure then of preventing dearth, is to keep this es well as ell other arable lands, if not in the highest state of cultivailion, at least in a bitshandlike condition. This, however, iannot be done, without remunerating prices, and such prices ran be expected only by protect. mg ditties equat to the di ff erence created by th e national debt between tile and foreign corn-exporttog countries. Ibis is not all t—it is nearly as of much importame, that the natio,' should not he glutted with foreigo grain. as it h that the importation of foreign grain should be persnitted in times of scarcity.. To be brief, if there w ere an assurance o f a 'fair rams. aeration, or taller, if the liritish agriculturist could not be undersold in his market by the foreigner; there would be little foreign supply wanted, and never, except on extraordinary occasions; for it is not as stated loy Mr. Malthus, "I n t h e na t ure Of all land to degene rate; excepting under such treatment as Mr. Ricardo a.l. vocates ; and turn there woul I be so great a quantity re allured, as would tender a foreign supply of the greatest importance." 011 the whole this work will be found highly interest ing to . persons well acquainted w ith th e su bj ec t s on which it treats. snit we most earnestly recommend it to the perasal of ',those who are entering on the study of pd. litical economy.

(r. oxl TUC DUBLIN MORNING POST OP TUESDAY.) Ou Saturday, when the panel for a County Jury was calling over in the Court of King's Bench, to try a case at Nisi Prins. Mr. O'Connell prayed his Lordship would order the attendance of a man named Drummond, the Sheriff's bailiff, in order to his being sworn as to having summ•med the Jury, as the defendant (Mr. O'Connell's client,) had evidence of the bailiff having demanded a guinea from the plaintiff, for having summoned certain persons rpon the panel, and having omitted others. Mr. O'Connell then called a witness to prove what he Lad stated to the Court, when Judge Burton oSserreil, that examining the witnesses would be an irregular mode of proceeding upon so se rious a charge. His Lordship then order 'd the bailiff to he sent for, when it was announced, after considerable delay, that he could not be found. Tile Learned Judge ordered an affidavit of the facts stated to be laid before him, and postponed the trial for some time until it sees re tdy. The plaintiffs Attorney . , professed his anxiety that the circumstances should be mg tired into, as if there htd been any improper conduct respecting the Jury, he was ignorant of it, and he was totally unacquainted with any of Elie jury. Judge. Burton did not conceive any imputation could lie upon the Attorney from what lastl . been stated, but be hail reason to fear that improper prartices existed as to the returning of Jury panels, and the subje. t being one of grave and serious importance, he should require the alLitavit to he laid be!ore the Court, in order to the wilier being thortinghly investigated. The Counsel on both sides agreed as to the netts ity of having the matter invired into, from the s-rionimess of the charge, and die importance of keeping the Trial by Jury free from all imputation; and it was accord ingly agreed to postpone the trial till nest Term.
