K. 1. REQUISITION TO THE HIGH BAILIFF OF SOUTHWARK. We stated three or four days ago, that • deputa tion from die inhabitants of the Borough of South wark lied waited upon the High Bailiff, for the pm pose of knowing when it would be convenient for him to receive them, with a Requisition to convene a Politic Meeting of the inhabitants at the Town Holl, in express their sentiments upon the late pro ceedisigs at Manchester. The High BAiliff s p. pointed yesterday to receive the Deputation. At o ur o'clock yesterday, according to appoint orient, Meson.. Gunk.., Ault, Black, • tt dStre.gll_t , waited upon the High Bailiff, and presented to him a formal Requisition to convene a Meeting of the Inhabi tants ofthe Borough. for the purpose already nwn- I toned. The Gentlemen who composed the Depu tation were received with great politeness by the High Bailiff, who after resoling the Requisition, informed them that he would take time to con sider of the propriety of their request. The Gentlemen impressed epos the High Bailiff the necessity of their receiving an early answer, and urged the appointment of a day for that pur pose, when the latter declined fixing a day for delivering his answer, hut assured them they should receive it in sufficient time for convelling a Meeting on Tuesday or Wednesday next, if lie, on misideration. should approve of their request. The Requisition is couched in strong terms, but not stronger than is necessary to characterise the late pro ceedings at Manchester, in the winner in which they have been viewed from one end of the country ill the other. Should the High Bailie (which it is difficult to anticipate) refuse to convene a Bo rough Meeting in the Town Hall, it is, we understand, the intention of the inhabitants them selves to convene a Public Meeting, at such time and place as they shall deem fit and proper, to express their sentiments upon the Manchester pro ceedings. Wherever they meet, they will receive the per! , onal assistance and support of both of their able and independent Representatives. INQUEST OS MR. SIMMONS, THE COMEDIAN. An 1 olitisitinn was taken yestereay at the Bark? Mow rulthr-tionse, Mount-street, before A. Gell, Esq on the holy of thin unfortunate deceased, who met his death un Saturday night last. Mr. Simmons, as most of oar readers know, was a most respectshle member of the Theatre-Royal, Covent-garden, to which company he belonged many years, and his talent bad ever met with unqualified approbation. The evidence, its to the calamitous event, 1/11111 as follows : William Chapman, servant to Mr. Thomas Wardon, No. 5, Ilanoveesqaare, Angled, that the wife of the deceased, had some business to do in the boom, and at eight o'cloek he railed for her, but she not being ready, he waited until she was enabled to accompany him. At lea o'clock witness let the deceased and his wife out by the area sate, and having ascended two or three steps in his way out, he soddenly fell backwards, the wife close behind him. IVititem picked him p and carried hint within the house, but he died instantly. Ile did not appear to have been drinking, and he fell directly backwards. Ik. Hyam was seat for, bat be used no means to restore animation, satisfied that such could be of nu purpose, as the deceased was past recovery. Tile beadle here stated, in the absence of the surgeon, that the deceased had died of apoplexy, and as the doctor informed Leta. Margaret Simmons, wife of the deceased, who gave her evi dence seder affliction which excited much sympathy in the Court, slated she had been married to him 16 years, and he had called upon her to escort her home, as stated by the last %anew. She related the manner in which the deceased fell hidoelids flora the steps, and whether he was in a fit or not she could not tell. She held her arm out to save him, and hit .114 uttered this expression, she manifested the must %ze:::seti grief. When recovered she said," I thonght / heard hurl hrrtilht." 'l'o some ovestions put by the Jury to the Beadle, respect inz the gtve of the appearance of the deceased, who was in a p..i.id state, be said that hie face or Suoday evening resem bled thm or a black man. Another witness, of the highest respectability, stated it to tke opinion of Dr. Heaviside, that the deceased had died of . apoplexy. 111 r. "canton, the performer, stated, that the deceased was weak in tlw eyes ; that Dr. Taylor, the oculist, had told him, that unless he was bled often, he would die by apoplexy. Mr. Robinson, and several friends of the deceased, were present. The Jury ',horned • verdict—t' Died by tie visitation of God in a _tit of Apoplexy." Yvsterday so 'roiest was held before Charles 'mown, F•fl. at the Swan, Battersea, on the body of dohs Thomas 1) i4nell, Esq. father of eleven children, the two youngest teal hays, but a few days old, when it appeared in evidence th it :he deceased on Friday last got to the top of one of u Allot trees, in his garden at Battersea, a height of 30 Pet, to pick some walnuts, which he occasionally threw dawn to his children, who were under it; when one of the ones cried out," Father, pray do sot fall." No sooner li id the child spoken the words, than the branch upon which the deceased stood broke Joao, and he was precipitated to the bottom, in the progicas of which his head strock some lattice work, and heat it down. His head was dreadfully Cartured, and he lingered until Saturday, when he expired exclac;atiirg agony. Verdict—Accidental Death. An Inquest was lately takes before Wm. Trig. Esq. at I'maiswick, Gloucestershire, on the body of Jobs Wood, on illegitimate child, aged four yeses, said to bare died of administered by the husband of his mother. After a mm,,,, investigation before a respectable Jury, It appeared that the mother of the child bad circulated a report, that inr liii,hand bad rivets hint poison, and propagated a cry of miled , r in the neighbourhood. But the Jury were satisfied of the mni's innocence, and returned a nrdict—Died by the visitolbs of God. No ease of any interest occured yesterday at the London Se►sious. A correspondent informs us, that a pauper of It mime of Witt:Tan FIELD. who once moved in 3 highly respectable rook in society, and who had reached the advanced age of 77 years, was coin. :tutted, about • week since, from one of the work :nises in the County of Surrey to the House of (.:orrectibut,'Hoesernatiger-lime, for 14 days, for re. fusing to work. We have no reason to su-peet the ac.-uracy of viiis statement, and we cannot forbear !Pe expiession of our disapprohatiou of such a sen tence. We are strong advocaats for inculcating 11.41,11 s of ioduetry on the inmates of work-houses, lind, in It cases, we should be far from objecting to the use of coercive measures for this end; but, 111 the instance before us, it requires no more than coalition share of humanity and feeling. to are tlig they were altogether misplaced. Grey hairs alone, independently of the claims arising from n-km.lone and the descent of better days, should • k•ve protected the poor old man from such &grads. I;tg treatment. Clrr smarms.

We lately noticed the extraordinary charge made at 1, rd Castlerengles Office fur passports. Tne subject is revived in The Morning Chronicle of yes terday, from which we extract the following ar ticle. addressed to the Editor of that Paper : Silt —Annexed I give a precise Copy of ear of Lord Cas tlereagh's Passports, the orgival of shich I exhibited at your Oflice. The cost of this document is 21 7s. 6d. of which only Ss. is fir the stamp, leaving V. 2s. 6.1. for fen and fur Lord Castlereagli's arms; 'ilium& of 4,000 of these Passports hive been issued, tbrrefore more then 8,000 gui was have been thus obtained. According to the present sys tem of intertwine no British subject can enter the Nether lauds without one of these Pnoports, the Ambassador of that country not granting permission without Lord Castlereagh's Passport being exhibited. This is probably is return f...r the obdruction given to Seth. rhoid subjects entering this kingdom in consequence of the Alien Bill. The same ob structions exist is the Inieirourse of British subjects wills saber countries of the Continent, except France, the Am bassador of whieh gives Pnaports gratis, without any docu ment fr Used Castlereagh's Office. This heavy charge of V. 7s. 6.1 on asking any permissioa of Lord Castlereagh to go to Holland or elsewhere, is novel sad unjust, and must injure the commerce of this reentry.

I The Proclamation that you have just heard was issued early in the present reign. sod sliiecied iss be always read at the Asniivtis and Quartet Sew -tons, I with a view of constantly keeping tip the illttelotiii.e 4 of Grand Juries and !Magistrates to the revels-ore of immorality and profaneness, awl particularly 10 what was evicts then ail iiicreasing evil (now ex tensively it has increased since we know too well) of I profane and impious public dome. Proclatuat:o:n for similar purposes have been since °cramming published. whenever special circumstance* seemed particularly to require it : and you are probably all aware of the Proclamation recently ponied, cold. ing upon all Magistrates to Wake isicynry, in order t.i bring to justices lie authors mid printers of-wicked an I seditious writings, all titterers of *erbium. sperch-.. and all persons concerned its riots and unlawful as semblies, under the striking circumstances speed' il its the Proclamation; that it was neither unneces sarily or prematurely issued, or the evils it alluded to overcharged, I presume, will hardly be pug.. gested even by the most fastidious its their 1 0 , 4 upon these subjects, after the demonstrat too of II:, is existence that has been afforded by various occur rences that have lately taken place, and parttrillarly by the melancholy events of the laid week; when sLi many individual. have unfortunately suffered, a n d amongst them some, I hope not many, who arvre meritoriously acting in execution of important duties in the public service. lii all these cala mitous proceedings we have a useful leant' to those who wanted it, how much serious and extensive mischief may be done by persons of the worst characters, and the most contemptible description ; and that neither precaution or alarm are unseasonable or premature, though little either of character, rank, or fortune, are par ties to the combination. Without any such auxi liaries (the trifling exceptions are not worth men• fuming), but by every species of fallacy and false hood, conveyed by the most inflammatory speeches. and the most seditious writings, plausible only amongst the most ignorant, the principle. of the lower orders have bs-e.i assailed in the form of newspapers, cheap pamphlets, and placards, day after day, and month after month, with an uctivtty and perseverance that scarce any thing can ivi!ln stand, And it has succeeded with large numbers in the manufacturing districts, by changing t:,e feelings of distress from causes, whicli hinsever to be lamented, are unavoidable, into a hatred of all weer:men% of all constituted station. ties, and of all the upper orders of society of every denomination. They have been persuaded that liberties have been taken sway that were never touched—rights invaded which never had export's..? —that their interest has been neglected—and their wants insulted by the rich; though it is notorious. there never was • time in soy age or nation. when the necessities of the poor were so largely relieved both by public and private contnbutirma, or their interest so anxiously consulted at the ex pense both of the time and money of the upper , orders on various occasions, and particularly its i erecting schools, and providing means for niece K I. instruction, by which many of them have beers i taught to read the very libels, which tell them so falsely they have been neglected and aggrieved. Under these and other false pretences, holding out to them what they call Radical Reform (which means nothing less than Revolution) as a cure for all their grievances; though no such Re!'orin could either increase their wages, or procure them work or food, these pretended Reformers have deluded thousand., collected together large assemblages, almost with. out example, obviously prepared to act in concert, marching from different quarters at the same time, with sticks and bludgeons in military array, some of them practised in military training, menacing all constituted authorities, with flags. ensigns, and caps of liberty, and various symbols of revolu tionary insurrection—almost throwing aside all disguise—openly disclaiming petitions to Par. liament es tireless—declaring that their object Iliu,t be obtained by force !—taxes by Parliament arc tyrannical—Reform or Death; and, to crown all, enlisting schoolinasters, and even the female sex. under their banners, engaging themselves to minute their children in their own principles of diaaffect hp, ; to train them up in the way they should sot go. t unit ing the cradle of the infant into a hot-bed of nob tiou, and mixing, as it were, this baneful poison °dig their daily food. In order to root oat every seed of loyalty from the minds and feelings of the rising ge. iteration, we find, in the mean time, sem k suspended, shops frequently shut up front terror, and the country around its u state of ferment and alann. And yet. Gentlemen, with all this unequivocal evidence staring us its the face, because there is one standard with the word " Order" on it. and these demagogues may occasionally cry " Peace" to a mob iiifuriated by their falsehoods, we are to be told (which they °los tell us would laugh at us if we Iselieved) that they meet only to declare their opinion, and to Tensaw quietly amt peaceably ; that they cootie aimed only with a pare conscience ; and that these demagogues, whatever crimes they may have committed. or may be in the act of actually committitig, iinultwg, begirding all authority both militivy amid civil, are not to be touches], vor the law of the land exc. oiled upon them sit the presetice of these assemblies, least they should be offended amid irritated ; and so they sire to be left under • continued persurriod so much inculcated by their leaders. that whatever they may do, the civil powers dare not, and the col.. litary will nut act tigrinq thew; tout they inlay cow. • . s.. ... wiradadia i' -4' ' r
