We were agreeably surprised et the peaceable spirit which seemed to reign among them. It was any thing but a great meeting, as I have seen more persoes at a lent preaching in the neighbourhood of Glasgow. There might be from I,:.on) to 2,000 people, as near as I cast guess. The person who was addressing the meeting while I was there gave a pitiful account of the times, iii rather an eloisluent manner. Most of the speeches were sioleid, however. It is very pleasing to the nibs- Litants of this place that they have behaved in such !truly, becoming manner; indeed, to their credit, evert• speaker invoked them to abhor ever• thing like slot and confurion, aitil to detest p.ucreding,: lt k,t. those its Glasgow and Paisley, as uuitsiug the cause of Reform.

A tract lias come into our hands, entitled " A Plan for obtaining a more speedy Postage Cunt mcniestion between London and ►he Distant Parts the Kingdom." The author is a Mr. Henry Bur►ess. He .grounds the expediency of his plan on the delay which now takes place in the return of the mail from Manchester, Liverrool, and other considerable manufactering or commercial towns at a distance from the metropolis—and on " the principle of soiling the quality and price every matter arid convenience to the varying wants of mankind." In illustration of the for- mer feet, be states, that the return mail is de layed twenty-seems hours in Manchester, whereas, to afford perfect accommodation to the itibabitants, eight would be sufficient ; and that the post com munication between the same town and London is not performed at present in less than four days, w i llie s% by the mode proposed, it would be com pleted in Ito). lii support of the latter principle be observes (and in our opinion correctly), that " while it would be quite satisfactory for one man to receive his letter in forty hours, and pay for the pestage ten-pence, another man would gladly give twenty, er even forty.pence, to receive his letter in twenty hours." The districts wherein the defects of the general trad-coach establishment are chiefly felt, ore the moat commercial and important in England, com prising the towns of Liverpool, Warrington, Man chester. Stockport, Bolton, Ilury, Rochdale, Ha lifax, Huddersfield, Bradford, Leeds. IVaketield, Sheffield, York, and Hull. Accordingly, it is proposed, that a new establishment be formed, un der the noose of the extra post (in addition to the prtsrol), for the conveyance of letters only, PO as to have two different modes of communication Kith •lf the populous and wealthy districts. The par ticular" are thus opened by the writer : " The outline of the project of an Extra post is, that a light fnnehine. drawn by two horses, shall start from the GreleTSl Yost-OffiCe, London, every afternoon at six o'clock, carrying nothing but the extra mall and the guard, and pro. en•d to the principal towns of England and Scotland, at the sale of eleven miles per hone, including all stoppages. " That the -extra pod shall arrive in London, from the principal toa•tts, at ten o'clock • morning. "That there shall be in London a distinct establishment • for the extra post.

THE BI UISH PRESS. LONDON. SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 25. ISI9. Nothing in the power of the people to effect can satisfy the partisans of the Treasury, for not withstand lug the numerous meetings already held, at which the proceedings of the Magistrates and yeomanry at Manchester have been euthusissticilly condemn ed, the Ministerial Prints have still the hardihood to affirm, that the voice of the public has not been raised against them. With their customary regard of truth, they represent the meetings con vened in the metropolis for the consideration of this subject, as composed of the very lowest classes of the people, and sneer at some of the speakers, because - they are engaged in trade. We hope the tradesmen of London, the men whose in dustry, intelligence, and high moral feeling, form the nerve and sinew of the State, will know how to resent this gratuitous insult. It would ill be come them to dispense any portion of their favour upon persons who make it pastime to turn their useful avocations into ridicule, and make the ordi nary business of so large a portion of the com munity an object of contempt, and represent their opinions, in consequence of their avocations, as en. titled to no attention. It is not founded in fact that the public meetings in the metropolis were coinposed solely or priori. pally of the lowest orders of the people ; of course no public meeting could be held in London with out comprising a very considerable number of the poorest persons; but at the recent assemblies con vened for the consideration of the events at Man chester. a much larger proportion of the we a lthy and middle classes of life appeared than usually attend on occasional meetings. Nothing can be more absurd than to think of collecting the sense or a public meeting from the number of the speakers. The speakers, when applauded, are •formly supposed to express the sentiments of till around them ; and never, we solemnly declare, did we on any former occasion witness such ani mated bursts of appltuse, such eismlimisias6c featations of feelings strongly excited, us were ut tered by the crowds or people at the several meet ings, whenever the speakers warmly a n d energeti cally condemned the condo. t of the Magistrates of blanchester in devising the attar le, the yeomanry for executing it, and the Ministers of the Crown for blindly and inconsideratcly approving of it.— Not a voice was raised on any occali , m to oppose the Resolutions ; we must there-hire iu c:intlonr presume, that every man of . the thous:mils present, all of whom with hands alai cc' cc Itelettly and em phatically declared timely eeleibrotel, dot teAlly give utterance to the ounitnent% of titer ht.„,14. Instead, then& of there not Wog more than one hundred persons in the empire who have ex pressed their abhorrence of the Alatorheoer proceed ings, as is osserted in • Treasury Print, there could not be fewer than one million of the people who have actually declared the sentiments of shame. sor row, and indignation, to which those clients have given birth. Bat we are Ad that the same crowds of persons might have been assembled fur any other possible purpose, and would have expressed their feelings with equal warmth and energy on any other topic. Why then, we ask. does not some adhe rent of the Ministers, or some admirer of the 114- gistrates of Manchester, try the experiment of Mr vetting a public meeting fur the purpose of Irene gpising the wisdom of the Magistrates, and the courage and discipline of the yeomanry. and prove by a bold appeal to the notion that the current of public opinion, if fairly exposed. would be found to waft upon its surface the starages of the wise and good in favour of those gentlemen ? We open lyspd in the face of the country dare the Ministers to this fair trial. In opposition to the known de clarations of so many thousands of persons, whet have the Ministers and Magistrate* of Misucbester to *hew ? Not one assembly of persons in the country has raised a voice in their favour. Where be now their parasites—their followers. " quite chop-fallen !"

COVENT-GAB DEN 771 F.ATR The musical drama of Guy Manner* was last night repeated—the part of Daminie Sampson, for the first time. by Mr. W. FARREN. Mr. LISTON had,-from the time when the piece was first per formed, up to the present period, delighted the town with his humorous representation Of honest Dositine. Its consequence of his severe Oboes., the character was on this oecesion filled by Mr. FANNEN. %O:) had acquired great fame its bublin by his clever personation of the worthy tutor. It was • fearful task to eater the lista with so excel lent a comedian, and so deserved a favourite, as Nlr. Ltirrow—hot the new Domiitie acquitted hinr(so.f with rest ability. In some points, we think his view of the character more nearly approached the original than that of Mr. LISTON —in others it certainly had not so muds of truth. In Mr. F•inan's performance thcre was snore of the sedate, the severe, and serious—qualm's which Dominic Sompson's studious life was likely to ei s . gender—Mao was exhibited in Mr. Lis roN's re• presentation—but the latter, in richness of ha. moor, and, ashore all, in Muse occagiutial fits of ab. sence and abstraction, by which poor Dominie is visited, was greatly superior. Much of the chit. meter, as played by Mr. Li'ros, was of his own formation—but Mr. FA IMEN oilliered strictly to hi* text. and, if lie did not ex rite so much laugh ter as the original I)ominie, he g:sve abundant proof that, even in this walk of the drama, so dif ferent from that in which he has latterly been tic. costumed to appear, lie possesses very considerable talent. Ilia hest scene Wit% I hilt iu which he cocoon tens Meg Merrifies. Ilia terror, in the commence. meat or I he interview, was of the most ludicrous, a nd, at the setae time, natural description. The scene which follow., where, for a considerable time, he is unable to muster up his faculties, so as to deliver his message, was very wrl! acted. The utter con. fusion of Doreirtie's mind was strongly depicted in the criunterainceof his representative. Mr. FARREN sung his portion of the glee, " The Fax jumped over the Parson's gale," vt ry effectively. [lts per formance (and it is tin slight rinse) was, with the re collection of Mr. Lts•rox strong in the public niisod, received with great applause. Miss M. TREE again sustained the character of Lacy Berirom. She is a very deasing actress, and a sill more pleasing singer. She was encored in two of her airs. Mr. Duellerr was the Hurry Bertram of the evening. lie sang prettily—and, iii the scene with Meg .)lerrilies, showed a more just taste for acting then we psesiouslv supposed lons to poises..

The c ^Acid state of the tines has indur, me to pursue a similar line of reasoninz, 2.1 I have entered into a serious investigation of the mei:l ing of different inscriptions, which I have nr.t;c-i chalked on the walls of this metropolis, or irniiodeig, ly painted on boards, as well as into as ex am ,,, lion of the signs of the public-houses, 4 ,„1 4 01 each I have extracted the most decided evid.ii:•.„ a deep-laid scheme io overthrow the C0n5t.:,,,,, in Church and State.

First, with respect to inscriptions :--1 loop bar's. seen exhibited, in divers parts of Loudon and monster, boards, inscribed with the *only, flak. ti.Sh may be shot hese." Short-sigliteil would suppose that this was nothing more ?In n an invitation to throw quantities of dirt and Hip., files of Treasury Journals, Scr, into pbre% it was thought desirable to fill up. 1, no the rm.- trary, sicw the inscription with great alarm—h:.ei. much as I verily believe, that the word. s.

I am convinced that this is the fact, becun•e 'lie affected constantly speak of these creatures us mere rubbish. There is now, and has been for some time, plito. ed in %Ike letters on a black ground, on the fravi of the Treasury in IVhitehall, the following iascnp. tion :—" No Beggars admitted here." This, at first sight, may appear only an interdiction again.: street-beggars or paupers begging barns, and a 04. lutary caution to apply elsewhere, because the Treasury is empty, and there is nothing to he had there. It is plain, however, that the words bear much more comprehensive meaning, and may h. construed into a public declaration of the Alinisteei determination to reject the Petitions of the people, and shut the doors against all their comp!aitits. I see also in the neighbourhood, the Llitish Navy chalked upon the pavement, and two equestrian statues on the opposite side at the Horse Gu a rds, so well executed, that the men and horses appear actually alive. These I consider symbolic of the present policy to trample upon the my, that eon. stitutional arm of our strength, and to ea dt the army. We find from the Foreign Papers that the word Hess, chalked on the walls of the several town% on the Continent in which the Jews are now persecut ed, is the watch-word adopted by their enemies, being formed of the initials of the following words— " Hierosolynse est perdita"—Jero,alem is lost.— Thus the word F-i-g puzzled me for a long time, until I at length recollected that they are the ini tials of " lire is good," and it became evident to me that they had reference to the intended cones gration of the metropolis--an event. which tl•e foolish inhabitants of London, with the exception of the Lord Mayo► and myself, affect to behest was never contemplated. XVith respect to public-house signs. 1 loot' open them as telegraphs of treason. The Crown and Cushion, as loyal as the 6,.r may appear, conveys a direct ceitsore on the NlO - Ile i 4 typified by the (',acre, and the peo ple are clearly meant by the Cushion. The iith r pretation then is, that the Monarch is soul; its supineness, and that he treats the people only as a crshion, made to be pressed and kept down. Can any thing be conceived more jaicoi , imeal than the sign of the King's Ilend LI of pious memory, hong rep a scoundrel. tar that he would make his son hr.a to the and, for my part, I think that those Who phi their Sovereign's head over their doors, deserve have their own stuck in the same situation.
