AT a•PUBLIC MEETING of the MEM BERS and SUPPORTERS of the SURREY ANTI-SLAVERY SOCIETY, held at the Spread Eagle .Inn, at Epsom, on Thurday, the 2Gth day of November, 1829, to take into consideration a Petition to both Houst of Parliament against Slavery in the British Colonie:, JOSEPH WILSON, Esq. in the Chair, ,The following Resolutions were, on the motion of henry 'C''° 3 @es Esq. a Magistrate of the County, seconded by Henry Pownall, Esq. unanimously adopted, viz. :- 1. That natural-born British subjects are such as are born within the dominions of the Crown of England (Blackstone, b. 1, c. 10.); and that " the three great and :primary rights of every Englishman are, personal se curity personal liberty, and private property." (Blackstone, b. 1, e. 10.) 2. That the present Lard Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, in the Debate in the House of Commons en the Catholic Question, in 16• 2 3, is represented to have as serted, as an unquestioned 'anal unquestionable legal and constitutional principle, that " every subject of the State 4 1 1 a right to life and liberty ; and that the Government that would invade those rights would not onl 5 • %•• l• a, • all ,to 4 1 i's but would be acting on a prhiciple whose operation 11111 At destroy that Government itself." That Judge Blackstone, in the introducticn to his COmmentaries, which embody the legal and constitutional bpinions of all the great Lawyers of past times, has de clared, in terms not less unequivocal, " That those rights which God and Nature ho.vetstablished, and are therefore Pdiedostural rights, such as are life and liberty, need not t he aid of human laws to be more effectually vested in every ./ I .a.n. than they are; neither do they receive any additional strength,... when declared by the municipal laws to be in_ Lte ; on the contrary, no human legislature,ha§ power ,Idge or destroy them, unless the owner shall hinlseif "maiit some act that amounts to a forfeiture." That the Legislature of - this country never possessed Z7 .4 litil or constitutional competence to enact, and, in F °ll4 of fret, never has enacted, any law declaring that ; L l.l °Cent British-born subjects, of any description, shad 'converted into slaves for the benefit of other British abbieets. 5. That the rights of a British subject depend not upon the colour of lds skin ; but that the darkest coloured of his Majesty's subjects, horn in the British Colonies, when arrived at .non's estate, if possessed of the reqnis;te landed ( J2Slifications, is as eligible to a sett in Parliament as any Member of the House of Commons. 6 .. • Th a t i nnocent an d un f ortuna te Englishmen, under the th _,"PProhri ous d es i gna ti o n of slaves, are, notwithstanding r rights as British-bona sub3ects, illegally and un tritotionally held in a state of slavery, in our West an 'lonies, by thousands and hundreds of thousands. That a system; like this, originating in the most . - P r locipled a var ic e , and carried on under every aggrava tion of the most revolting cruelty—a system which, while exhausts with unrelenting severity the corporeal strength, stutliotuily perpetuates the mental degradation of its vie- U , 41 ,5---might well excite our disgust and abhorrence, es en Zuomded upon any specific legal enactments : but when : 161 , as has been repeatedly shown, that it is opposed i ft ev ti e rY principle of that Constitution of which we are so Proud, it excites co less our amazement than our -4.114 ° that its existence can have been so long endured by the Government of a Christian State. Iles--°!ea ' u That the Committee of this So ciet y be re quested to prepare Petitions to both Houses of Parliament, 12re'sed in the terms of the above Resolutions, and pray 'ists That the Duties on the East and West India 'uatar tray be equalized ; 2d, That a law may be imme folr—slY passed, awarding a severe and adequate punishment Persons who British henceforward he guilty of the e-1° of converting-born children, of whatever colour, into slaves ; and :Id, That such tither effectual measures mav he adopted, without loss of time, as shall be e eees v erv lar Y, to put an end to such a monstrous violation of AiP ri lloiple of justice and humanity.

Crabs abound in the eastern part of Jamaica, at all seasons, but are considered to be best in the months the names of which contain the let ter IL They are most plentiful in May, the season at which they deposit their eggs, or run, as the Negroes express it, and when the earth is literally covered with them. At this season it is imposslble to keep them out of the houses, or even out of the bed-rooms, where, at one time scratching with their large claws, and at another rattling across the floor, they make a noise that would not a little astonish and alarm a stranger. Occasionally they will lodge them selves very snugly in a boot, and if a person puts his foot upon them inadvertently, he has quick intimation of the intruder, by a grasp of his nippers. For a few weeks in this season they may be gathered in any quantities, and the Negroes sometimes hurt themselves by making. too free use of them. Even the hogs catch them, although not always with impunity, as a crab sometimes gets hold of one of them by the snout, fromwhich he is not ea sily di se n g a ge d and the terrified animal runs about squeaking in great distress. At other seasons, and when more valuable, they are caught by torch light at night, and put into covered baskets. Crowds of Negroes from the neighbouring plantations pass my house every evening with their torches and baskets, going to a crab wood on the other side, and return before midnight fully laden. Their baskets will con tain about forty crabs, and the regular price is a five-penny piece, our smallest coin equal to about 31-d. sterling, for five or six crabs. At this rate a Negro will make 2s. 6d. currency in an evening ; and the more improvident, who will not cultivate provision grounds;depend, in some measure, upon catching crabs and selling them to the others. A hundred plantains usually sold at five shillings, will purchase from sixty to seventy crabs, and two of these eaten-with plan tains or yams make an excellent meal. I have seen upwards of a hundred Negroes pass my house in an evening, and return with their bas kets on their heads, not only full of crabs, but with quantities of them fastened by the claws on the tops of the baskets. I make but a moderate computation when I suppose they must have had at the very least three thousand crabs. Almost every Negro family has an old flour barrel pierced with holes, in which their crabs are kept. They are fed with plantain skins, &c. and taken out and thrown into the pot as wanted. —Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. LONDON MARKETS. (From the London New Pricc Current of yesterday.) SUCIAA.—The demand for Muscovades this week has been general; the inferior brown Sugars are still sold on low terms, large parcels being taken at 475. ; the fine Sugars are tcarce, and maintain high rates. The estimated sales this week are 3,400 hluls. and tierces. In the Re fined Market there is little variation this week; the re quest for shipment is rather limited, and the wholesdle grocers only purchase for their immediate wants. Mo lasses dull.

The sales of Bengal and Mauritius are small parcels at former rates. COFFEE.-There have been very few parcels of Coffee brought forward by public sale; some good ordinary Brazil Coffee sold 31s. and 325., which is rather lower; there are inquiries after the inferior qualities of Foreign and East India Coffee, but the sales actually repotted are still on a confined scale; generally the Market has a heavy and uninteresting appearance. There were no public sales of Coffee this day ; some sales of Brazil Coffee, very good ordinary, are reported, at 325. Gd. RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS —The purchases of Rum are confined to small parcels of low Jamaica, and sonic Leeward Island Ruin at low prices ; the latter under proof and proofs at Is.

" Plymouth Journal. THE BRIDGE FROM ST. VINCENT'S.ROCKS. —Several plans and specifications of a suspension bridge, to be thrown across the Avon from St. Vincent's Rocks, including those of Captain BROWN, the inventor and pa tentee of suspension bridges, were yesterday submitted to the Committee for carrying the undertaking into effect. A • very beautiful model was also laid before them, made by Messrs. FOSTER and OKELEY, on a scale of 10 feet to an inch. The pillars are intended to be sunk 30 feet in the rock, and to be 150 feet high, 50 of which are to be above the level of the bridge. They are to he erected in a line with Sion Row and Nightengale Valley. the whole span is 630 feet, and 570 feet in the clew; the height is 200 feet ; it j 3 to be 40 feet wide, of which the footpath on each side is to be 6 feet. From these mea surements, it appears that it will be 20 feet wider and just double the height of the Menai bridge. The estimate amounts to between 40,0001. and 50,0001. —Bristol Mirror. of 200 Bengal, 3id. a Sid. ; 4,700 Surat, Sp. a 5 d. ; 200 ditto, public sale, Sad. ; 100 Madras, public sale, 4:4d. ; 100 New Orleans, 5111. a 64d. ; 80 Bowed, 4d.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW.STREET. A decent-looking man named Bolton, accompa tiled by his wife and two small children, came be fore Mr. HALLS on Thursday for parochial relief, stating that he had been to the overseer of St. Clement Danes, who had refused him admission to the workhouse of that parish, on the ground that lie had slept the overnight in the parish of St. Mar tin-in-the-fields. The poor man stated his case. He was a native of Tewkesbury, but quite destitute. After an ab sence from town for some time, he returned lately, and took lodgings in the parish of St. Clement Danes, a distress was put into his apartment on Mon day last, and himself and family were turned into the street; he applied to Mr. Mumford, the overseer of St. Clement Danes, who relieved him with small alms for a day or two, and at length he received from him a shilling, with a recommendation to pro cure a lodging where he could. He slept that night in White Hartlard, but the next day, his means being exhausted, he applied again to Mr. Mumford, who told him that White Hart-yard was in St. Martin's parish, and there he must apply for relief. Mr. Munford had merely acted acted according to what he conceived to be his duty. Mr. HALLS, after observing that if the poor laws were properly administered, it would save a great deal of the confusion and inconvenience which existed at this and other police offices, said that it was quite clear that in giving the present applicant Is., with directions to get a bed where he could, the object was to turn him and his family over to some other parish. Now, however ingenious this subter fuge might be, it was not defensible in point of law, and perhaps Mr. Munford was not aware that in doing so lie had committed an indictable offence. 11e (Mr. Halls) was, however willing to believe that he had acted through ignorance. Mr. Halls then directed that Bolton and his family should be received forthwith into the workhouse of St. Cle ment Danes. Last night Jeremiah Redding, one of the gang that infested the neighbourhood of St. Giles's when street robberies were so frequent there, and who stood at the bar of this dice about two years since charged with having robbed Mr. Horace Twiss, M.P., of his gold watch and appendages, was brought before Mr. HALLS, together with a female named Ann Kcary, charged capitally with having been found in the act of coining. Serjeant Wheatley stated, that at five o'clock that evening, in consequence of information he had re ceived, he, in company with his brother Edward, No. 50, and Thomas Smee, proceeded to the house No. 10, Bloomsbury-market, and went immediately up stairs to the first floor, the door of which was locked. He knocked at it twice, arid called out " Jerry," upon which the door was opened by the female prisoner, and he saw the male prisoner F. eated on a chair near the fire-place. His coat and waist coat were off, and the sleeves of hiS shirt were tucked up. 't he instant he perceived the witness he cast something from him, and - he attempted at the same time to thrust his hand into his breeches' pocket. Witness seized it, however, and drew from the pocket a mould containing a counterfeit shilling, which evidently had just been cast, as both the mould and the metal were quite warm. - Witness immediately handcuffed the prisoner, and directed his companion to lock the room. In searching a cupboard he found a bag of plaster of Paris, and a piece of metal, together with a case knife and file, both of which had evidently been used on metal. A pipkin was also found containing metal such as is used in casting base coin. Two or three pieces of the same metal were found in the cinders and about the hearth. In conveying the prisoner to the watch-house he declared that he was a dead man. The brother of Sergeant 'Wheatley and Smee cor roborated his evidence. At the request of Mr. Field, of the- Mint, the prisoners were remanded. LAMBE TH-STREET. The overseer of St. Mary Stratford, Bow, came yesterday before Mr. HARDWICK, at this office, bringing with him a pauper named Arnoll, and begged of the Magistrate to grant an order to com pel the new Select Vestry of the above parish to grant the pauper some relief. Mr. Penn, the overseer, knew the man was a deserving object, and, nevertheless, the new Select Vestry refused to grant hire any relief. The Vestry had given him the sum of N. per week, which he had expended, as well as 1 Is. of his own money, last week. The Vestry, instead of giving him an unlimited power of relieving paupers, had been in the habit of only giving him this small sum of money weekly; and once a fortnight holding a meeting among themselves for the purpose of re lieving the poor, which meeting was held at six o'clock in the evening, and it often happened that poor paupers, who had been waiting outside the door from six o'clock in the evening till twelve o'clock at night, were sent away without any relief. The Magistrate said that the reason, perhaps, why he was not given unlimited power to relieve the paupers, was because they had an opinion that he was too good-hearted. It was mentioned in the office that the expellees of relieving the paupers had at one time increased from N. per week to 201. during Mr. Penn's over seership, but this Mr. Penn denied. Mr. Penn would take very good care never to accept another overseership when he got rid of this one. It was really terrible to be continually tor mented by poor deserving objects, without any power of relieving them. The Magistrates adjourned the case till this day, to enable some gentlemen belonging to tha new Select Vestry to attend. UNION-HALL. Yesterday three men, named Duff, Reilly, and Gory, were brought before Mr. SWABET, charged on suspicion with robbing the master of a Lisbon trader of a gold watch and seals. The prisoners were well known to all the officers as reputed thieves, and were remanded for examina tion on Wednesday. A woman, named Hicks, the wife of a travelling tinker, was charged with being drunk and biting off the top of a watchman's thumb. The poor watch man exhibited his lacerated finger, and in a tone of anguish complained that of all the female drunkards he ever had to do with, she was the most inveterate. He first saw her, he said, lying on the cold steps of a doorway, and pitying her situation, exposed there as she was on such a bitter night, he went up and gave her a gentle shake by the shoulders, saying, " My good woman, come, get up and go home." He had no sooner touched her than she jumped up and flew at him like a fury, tooth and nail, and hav ing got his thumb into her mouth, did not let go of it until she nipped the top off between her teeth. It took three men to convey this virago to the watch-house, and the whole of the way she kicked and plunged, aad alarmed the inhabitants by her shouts and vociferations. It was stated that she was a common drunkard, and the Magistrates were about committing her for the assault on the watchman, in default of payment of the tine, when her husband stepped forward, saying, " I hope you vorships will not be hard upon my old woman; she used to drink at one time, I knows, every day of her life, sixteen glass of gin before she went to bed, but now your vorships 1 c assure lon that she never exceeds 11 11 5 5 PRICES OF d. to d.

We extract the following from Dr. Arnott's work upon the Elements of Physics, the first part of the second volume of which has just made its appearance. It is perhaps the most valuable, and at the same time most simple, dis covery that has been made for many years in Medical Physics : " The most common case of stuttering, how , ever, is not, as has been almost univerolly b - lieved, where the individual has a difficulty in respect to some particular letter or articulation, by the disobedience, to the will or power of as sociation, of the parts of the mouth that should form it, but where the spasmodic interruption occurs altogether behind or beyond the mouth, viz. in the glottis, so as to affect all the articu lations equally. To a person ignorant of ana tomy, and therefore knowing not what or where the glottis is, it may be sufficient explanation to say, that it is the slit or narrow opening at the top of the windpipe, by which the air passes to and from the lungs—being situated just be hind the root of the tongue. It is that which is felt to close suddenly in the hiccup, arresting the ingress of air, and that which closes, to opfrevaperson entthe lifting egress o a of airvy from any straining exertion ; it is that also , rZlij,litt the or cheat ma by the repeated shutting of which, a person. divides the sound in pronouncing several tunes, in distinct and rapid succession, any vowel, as o, o, o, o. Now the glottis during common speech need never be closed, and a stutterer is in stantly cured if, by having his attention properly directed to it, he can keep it open. Had the edges or thin lips of the glottis been visible, like the external lips of the mouth, the nature of stut- - tering would not so long have remained a mys tery, and the effort necessary to the cure would have forced itself upon the attention of the most careless observer ; but because hidden, and pro fessional men had not detected in how far they were concerned, and the patient himself had only a vague feeling of some difficulty, which, after straining, grimace, gesticulation, and sometimes almost general convulsion of the body, gave Way ? the uncertainty with respect to the subject has remained. Even many persons who by. atten tion and much labour had overcome the defect in themselves, as Demosthenes did, have not been able to describe to others the nature of their efforts, so as to insure imitation ; and the author doubts much whether the quacks who have suc ceeded in relieving many cases, but in many also have failed, or have given only temporary rellot, really understood what precise end in the action of the organs their imperfect directions were ac complishing. " Now a stutterer, understanding of anatomy only what is stated above, will comprehend what he is to aim at, by being farther told, that when any sound is continuing, as when lie is hum ming a single note or a tune, the glottis is ne cessarily open, and that therefore when lie chooses to begin pronouncing or droning ally simple sound, as the c of . the English word berm/ (to do which at once no stutterer has difficulty), he thereby opens the glottis, and renders tim pronunciation of any other sound easy. If, then, in speaking or reading, he joins his words tom gether, as if each phrase formed but one ions word, or nearly as a person joins them in singing (and this may be done without its being at all noted as a peculiarity of speech, for all persons do it more or less in their ordinary conversation) the voice never stops, the glottis never closes, and there is of course no stutter. The author has given this explanation or lesson, with an example to a person, who before would have re quired half an hour to read a page, but who im mediately afterwards read it almost as smoothly as was possible for any one to do : and who then, on transferring the lesson to the speech, by con tinned practice and attention, obtained the same facility with respect to it. There are many per sons not accounted peculiar in their speech,who in seeking words to:express themsclves,often rest long between them on the simple sound of e mentioned above, saying,for instance, hesitatingly," e I e think . . . . you may,"—the sound never ceasing until the end of the phrase, however long the person may require to pronounce it. Now a stutterer, who to open his glottis at the begin ning of a phrase, or to open it in the middle after any interruption, uses such a sound, would not even at first be more remarkable than a drawling speaker, and he would only require to drawl for a little while, until practice facilitated his command of the other sounds. Although producing the simple sound which we call the c of berry, or the French words de or pie, is a means of opening the glottis, which by stutterers is found very generally to answer, there are many cases in which other means are more suitable, as the intelligent preceptor soon discovers. Were it possible to divide the nerves of the muscles winch close the glottis, without at the same time destroying the faculty of producing voice, such an operation would be the most immediate and certain cure of stuttering ; and the loss of the fa culty of closing the glottis would be of no mo ment. " The view given above of the nature of stut tering and its cure, explains the following facts, which to many persons have hitherto appeared extraordinary. Stutterers often can sing well, and without the least interruption—for the tune being continued, the glottis does not close. Many stutterers can also read poetry well, or any declamatory composition, in which the uninter rupted tone is almost as remarkable as in sing ing. The cause of stuttering being so simple as above described, one rule given and explained may, in certain cases, instantly cure the defect, however aggravated, as has been observed in not a few instances ; and this explains also why an ignorant pretender may occasionally succeed in curing, by giving a rule of which he knows not the reason, and which he cannot modify to the peculiarities of other cases. The same view of the subject explains why the speech of a stut terer has been correctly compared to the escape of a liquid from a bottle with a long narrow neck, coming either as a hurried gush or not at all ;' for when the glottis is once opened, and the stut terer feels that he has the power of utterance, he is glad to hurry out as many words as he can, before the interruption again occurs. Should the author's future experience enable him to simplify or render more complete the views of the nature and cure of stuttering, which hine ever la s given y ab ove, variety n o v f e so case, a he s tNovtrot facilitate fail t t h cure oe pub lish his remarks."
