I can only say, that I am always glad to court fair discussion, and to hear the arguments of those who are opposed to me. Probably their information and judgment may so modify my views as to lead me to change the principles I have hitherto advocated. At all events I shall always be glad to profit by the experience and knowledge of those whose in telligence entitles them to attention. I state this the more intelligibly, because I speak in the presence of those who will do justice to my motives and integrity. lam not altogether igno rant that arguments of a different sort to those which ought to be employed, and that weapons which are not fair in political warfare, have been di rected against the individual rather than to his mea sures. To all such attacks, which are addressed to the passions and the prejudices, and which lead to the excitement of personal ill feeling, I shall never reply. I think them unworthy of the notice of any public man, and undegerving of his attention. — (Cheers.)—Gentlemen, I shall not further detain you, nor occupy that time which may be better em ployed titan in listening to me.—(Cheers, and cries of "Go on, go on.")—I shall only say, that I an , aware that there are causes at this moment pressing hard upon the industry and wealth of this populous manufacturing community. How far these causes are within the reach and under the controul of Go vernment, and how far they have been occasioned by circumstances which no human power can in fluence, I cannot pretend to say. Some there may be which are within the reach of the Councils of the country ; but there arc others far beyond their con trol. Whatever the causes may be, it is the anxious wish of the individual who has the honour to address you, if he saw sure means of permanent relief, or even of temporary alleviation, to give his advice and assistance when Parliament assembles, towards ARMITAGE PARK, STAFFORDSHIRE.

ADVENTURE OF A POOR KNIGHT OF WINDSOR. M. WALLER CLIFTON. On Tuesday evening, at a late hour, Phillips, a watchman, in Orchard-street, Westminster, on going his rounds met a respectable-looking old gentleman, apparently about 70 years of age, having under his convoy a young damsel, well known in that neighbourhood by the nick-name of " Cherry Ripe," but whether so called from her plump ruddy cheeks, or from the melodious style in which she sings that celebrated air, is not certain ; however, they both appeared mightily pleased with each other's company, and the frail fair one, with her usual custom, was singing, as they passed, the well-known ditty of " Cherry Ripe," which seemingly delighted the old gentleman (who turned out to be one of the Knights of Windsor) to that degree, that in rap tures lie kissed her cherry lips with a clamorous smack at the end of every verse. Phillips thought the kissing and the singing very suspicious, as he knew the damsel's propensity to fall in love with watches, purses, or indeed any thing in a portable way she never stood nice about, and he determined to watch the movements of the amorous knight and his fair one. At last they stopped at the door of No. 51, Old Pye-street, and after several soft whispers the knight and the lady entered the house. " I shall keep a strict atch upon that house," said the watchman to himself, as soon as the door was closed, " or the old gentleman will repent his visit." In a short time afterwards the watchman passed the house where the lovers were lodged, and found the door, which had been before fastened, on the jar. This confirmed his suspicions, and, calling for he assistance of another watchman, he entered UNDER the SUPERINTENDENCE of the SOCIETY for the DIFFUSION of USEFUL KNOWLEDGE. HE PURSUIT of KNOWLEDGE, UNDER DIFFICULTIES, being Part IV. of the Library of Entertaining Knowledge, was published on the 10th of August.

SHEARING.—The Irish shearers who lately arrived in such swarms in this country, are likely to come much better on than the general state of the country pro- 1 mised on their arrival. The grain appears to have ripen ed every where at once, and hence there is a far greater demand for reapers than there has been for several years. From 500 to 600 appeared in the Grassmarket on Monday, and few of them were engaged under is. 3d. a-day, but as the weather bad a doubtful appearance, comparatively few were hired. Yesterday morning upwards of 700 came forward, and as the weather was excellent, wages ran Is. 4d. a day, and one farmer engaged a number at 2s. without victuals. Notwithstanding the number of unemployed weavers, wages are still better in the west country. A few clever fellows who could handle the Ilainault scythe with the dexterity of the Flemish rev rs who visited this country a few years ego, would do welt this season. About 500 shearers appeared at the Cross of Glasgow on Monday morning. firing wept on briskly, and the greater part were engaged. Current rate of wages per day 22d. A few known men got 2s. ; a good number, principally women, were hired at 20d. which was the lowest rate. — Scotsman. " Among nine ladies," says Dr. NVALsII, " one day forming a dinner party at Vienna, there was not one who could not speak English fluently and cor rectly, and converse with taste and judgment on the best work s of English literature, which I found was now more cultivated at Vienna than French; not one of them had ever been in Edeand." the house. On opening the door of a room up stairs, there sat the veteran knight, with nothing on but his shirt, shivering and shaking like an aspen leaf, and, on the entrance of the watchmen, begged of them for mercy, exclaiming that he was only one of his Majesty's poor knights of Wind sor, and his name was -. Tlie watchmen told him not to be alarmed, as they came to pro tect him. " Not before I wanted it," replied the knight ; I expected nothing short of being mur. dered in this den." The knight then detailed his misfortunes : he had no sooner got into bed, when " Cherry Ripe" robbed him of his money, and a ruffian also entered the room and carried off his valuable watch, which he would not lose for the world. Search was immediately made, but " Cherry Ripe" was not to be found : how ever, in one of the rooms a hole was discovered in the flooring, covered with a piece of oil-cloth, in which was found the knight's watch, carefully wrapped in an old handkerchief. The knight was delighted with the discovery, thanked the watchmen a thousand times, called them his de liverers, and said he cared not about any thing else so that he had got back his watch. The old knight then put on his clothes, declaring all the time that he should never hear the song of " Cherry Ripe" again without shuddering. He had come up from Windsor that morning, and would go back again immediately. The watch men then conducted the knight out of the neigh bourhood, and directed him to a house where he could get a bed for the night and sleep in safety. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. LONDON MARKETS. (From the London New Price Current of yesterday.) - SUGAR.-The Sugar market is extremely firm ; the transactions in Muscovades are not stated so extensive as during the preceding week, owing probably to the buyers not being able to purchase on the former terms ; we con sider the market is higher. The public sale of St. Lucia Sugars yesterday went off at full prices, good yellow 555., dry brown 475. a 485., dabs 435. The estimated sales this week are 4,200 hbds. and trs. A great proportion of the Sugars sold at a late hour this day. The ►narket is firmly improving. The low Goods meet a ready sale as they are brought to market, and at full prices, but there is no advance. The fine G.ouds do not go off so readily for the home trade, but there is no alteration in price. Mo lasses steady. This afternoon the request for low Goods for export continues, and as there are few supplies, con tracts for goods to be ready in a week or two are freely entered into at the present market rates.

Mr. Huskisson, accompanied by his lady, ar rived at the house of Benjamin Heywood, Esq. Claremount, near Manchester, on Wednesday evening. On the following morning he visited the silk-factory of Messrs. Itoyle and Crompton, and likewise the warehouse of Messrs. H. and E. Tootall. About half-past twelve o'clock he entered the Exchange, which at the time was crowded with gentlemen anxiously expecting his arrival. The applause on his entrance was una nimous and enthusiastic. After a momentary pause, he proceeded to address the company in the following speech " Gentlemen,,,l certainly will not detain you by any studied assurance of the sentiments I entertain of the kind manner in which you have done rue the honour to receive me. Were I to attempt to state my feelings, I should fail in so doing—that attempt, however, is altogether superfluous and unnecessary. I am sure gentlemen, from your own knowledge of human nature, you must allow that a ppwso,n who has had a share in the councils of has taken an ac ti ve pa - it i i public l ife, cannot but feel highly gattm,il when he findz himself, in a private station, honoured with such a reception as I have just experienced.—(Cheers.)—Gentlemen, it is the more flattering for me, as it is impossible for even malevolence itself to ascribe this reception to those motives which it might have li4d it been'Still clothed wit . % the inmour4 and attributes of oilig ew4io I formerly' possessed. I feel this kind ness the m ore , b ecause I am a persona l stranger to almost all whom I have the honour to address; and also, because I am not connoted by any other tie with this great and populous community. I am not unaware, however, that I am in the centre of a great manufacturing district, in which there is the greatest procuring that relief which you are all anxious to obtain.—(Loud cheers.)—Gentlemen, I have before observed, that I am altogether politically discon nected with Manchester, and that I have no per sonal acquaintance almost in this great community; but though I am politically connected with Liver pool alone, I cannot help feeling that the interests and prosperity of Liverpool and those of Manchester are so closely united, that in whatever steps I take to promote the interests of my own constituents, cannot be far from promoting the interest and well being also of the manufacturing community. I feel that Liverpool and Manchester are not only inti mately connected with each other; but I would say to the landed interests of the country, that Liverpool and Manchester, connected as they are with the population of the kingdom generally, are interested in the pros perity of the manufacturer,, and mainly contribute to the advancement of the commerce of the coun try. I hope that . all will join in this common feel ing, and that all will concur in any measures that may be requisite to relieve the present pressure, It not to restore that buoyant and active commerce which once produced such beneficial effects in this part of the country, a healthy and safe remuneration to the capitalist, and which raised this country to the eminence which it now occupies in political power and commercial enterprise.—( Cheers.) — Allow me, gentlemen, again to thank you for the kindness with which you have received me." At the conclusion of this speech, the Right Hon. Gentleman left the room, amidst loud applause, and proceeded to visit the exhibition of paintings in the Royal Institution. He was to leave the neighbour hood of Manchester on Friday morning, for Storrs, the seat of John Bolton, Esq., in Cumberland. ➢IANCIIESTER, AUG. 27. The placards issued by the master spinners, not withstanding the counter production of the men, appear to have produced some effect, as on Monday hands went to work at two or three of our factorie. In consequence of this concession on the part of the "knobsticks," a mob of 600 or 700 persons assem bled round the factory of Mr. David Holt or► Tues day night, and considerable fear was entertained for the safety of the building and the lives of the men. The police, however, promptly repaired to the spot, and by their timely presence prevented the antici pated mischief. The spinners, however, who had returned to their wheels, were compelled to remain in the mill during the night—as it was evident, from the disposition of the rioters, as evinced by their gestures and declarations, that they would be mo lested whenever they made their appearance in the street. Indeed, GO violent were some of the ring leaders of the besiegers, that notwithstanding the presence of the civil authorities, they openly ex pressed their intentions, and as an example, one man named Williams was apprehended and brought before the Magistrates on Wednesday ; but Mr. Huh declining to appear, the fellow was liberated. The other mill in which some of the hands have returned to their work is Messrs. Sandiford and Green's, at which place on Wednesday evening a similar assem blage occurred. Mr. Lavender fortunately, as in the former instance, arrived in time, and haying esta blished a picquet of military, as yet no violence has been manifested. In all the factories, however, in which the reduction has been conceded by the ope ratives, they are obliged to live night and day within the premises, .MOMMOINNI SHOCKING SUICIDES. On Thursday morning, about half-past nye o'clock, the inmates of the George inn, Aldermanbury, were thrown into the ittmou alarm at the discovery of one of the gentlemen stopping there, Mr. George Torr, having out his throat in a most dreadful man ner. During the night the most awful groans were heard all over the house to proceed from Mr. Torr's chamber, but, it being known that he was afflicted with a spasmodic affliction, no particular notice x:; w , taken of the circumstance, further than it t' ; ' ; ',',“ tr b e d the other gentlemen.—However, at 4.3i,tt, the hour above stated some suspicion " Boots," the servant, went up to, the : chamber of 'Mr, Torr, and, on opening the door, he observed the unfortu nate gentlerral sitting On the floor in his night cloth?s, and large quantitie4 of blood flowing from his neck. fie imk - Odiaiely gave an instant alarm upon the tii4overy, and Mr. Linniear, the surgeon opposite, was immediately sent for. On his arrival the unfortunate man was found to he alive lad sen sible, but could not speak. He pointetk to,the table where lay a large clasp W i ll k;:oxe;e4 with blood, with which he cornie k ittel tireadcul act, and he must hav indicted the, .wOuttcl which had divided the vfi4ipe,:Wore. the icoliing-glass, as the blood ; had sPiqCCV(IYe; it. He was carried instantly to St. Bartholomew's hospital, where every thing possible was done for him, but he expired yesterday trAn ing at six o'clock. The unhappy man 4 map surveyor, and resided at Manehe:ei, and had oni h . been in town about a 110 - ifv.. Ainfortunc.lely he has left a wife a:?d, several children to bewail his loss. On Thursday night, about half-pas, twelve o'clock, Mr. James Nash, many yeara the proprietor of the Coach and Horses, public-house, corner of Bloomsbury-stepc liigh Holborn, re tired to bed in appare!;tly good health and spirits. At about seven o'clock yesterday morning, his niece, as was her : usual custom, went up stair 4 for the keys of the bar, which he always locked up the over-night himself; and toolt them''with him into his bed-room. Upon the girl approaching the door she called to her uncle, but receiving no answer, and thy door being on the When we arrived at our position in the line, twilight had not dappled in the East. A de- tachment of different regiments, amounting to 200 men, under the command of a field officer, three captains, and some subalterns, was sent to piquet, and as it happened to be my turn for duty, I was included in the number. We then began to descend the face of the hill, which I found was more difficult than ascending. Be fore reaching the bottom of the hill, we halted, and placed a range of sentinels in our front. When day-light began to appear, the enemy's piquets discovered our sentinels, and commenced tiring at intervals upon them. Our field-officer immediately commanded eighteen men from the left of the piquet, to go down and dislodge that of the enemy from its position. As I was stationed in this part, I was •one of the party. Headed by one of our captains, we began to move forward, but had not proceeded many paces when a ball from the enemy whizzed through my bonnet ; at this I was somewhat alarmed, but resuming my courage, I resolved to do my duty. The firing, which was now be come rapid and heavy, made us quicken our pace. To dislodge them was not a matter of long contest ; for after a few rounds of our mus ketry they wheeled about and fled towards the French lines, whither we pursued them, before aware of our danger. Volleys, in rapid succes sion, were poured amongst us. In our career we were instantly checked and thrown into con fusion. To the eye the scene was now dreadful. My companions were falling thickly around me. . The first that got his death wound was our captain. The shot which he received, pene trated his heart ; in a strong convulsive fit he sprung from the ground, and falling di rectly backwards, lay prostrate, without making a struggle or uttering a sigh. Bewildered and 'confounded, I looked around , and found that was left alone, and exposed to the fire of the enemy, whose bullets were showering about my head like hailstones. My situation at this time may be more easily conceived than desciihed. I shouldered my musket, which was loaded, and retired with haste from this field of carnage. I had not proceeded far, when three of the enemy's piquets, who had concealed themselves in the adjoining thickets, suddenly started out, pre sented their muskets at me, and fired, but missed their object. I discharged the contents of mine at them, but did not wait to observe if my shot had taken effect. I then directed my course towards the hill, pursued by my ene mies, who kept continually firing at me; having reached the foot of the hill, I began to climb its steep side, with very faint hope of ever attain ing the summit. The farther I advanced in my ascent, the more exhausted I became. The day was exceedingly warm. I had a heavy knap sack upon my back, to which was attached a. ponderous bill-hook that we used in cutting down our fire-wood, and as it happened to be my lot to carry it on the preceding day, I got no time to deliver it up when ordered upon this duty. Overcome with fatigue, I was ultimately compelled to sit down, though exposed to the greatest peril. In such an elevated situation, 1 was a most prominent object to that part of the French lines opposite to where I was. Before I had obtained many moment's re pose, the musket shot of the enemy was strik ing every place around me, whilst I remained un injured, like an enchanted person from fairy-land, One of these, however, came so nigla my person aiing f y r o c r u t m h m e s e t a s t c o p e u r , l o d w c . e l e l r , e i - e s d h t : e I s e e m u e p d , this of my o and collacting all the strength I had, strained every nerve till I reached the main body of the piquet. The commander, to whom my ape: ear eu t o t : r a l l y l the unable?maaikel ance excited the greatest alarm, asked mu with tsitlieri:erisine,terrvrloiagtathoardi interrogatories r.Ost to enquired particularly about the captain. To any reply. My jaws wesa parched, and my tongue considerably swollen ; for that • neorning having fired above 70 rounds, the ,es a n • pow der which got into say mouth by biting elle ends off the cartridgess, increased my thirs t . Seeing the state In which I was, he hastily exclaimed, " my • God, if I have one drop arum in my flask, you shall have it." Then aereing his flask, he shook it, and to his great delight found 'it contained some of that genial beverage. Having filled a glass he put it into my h a nd s; w h en 1 h a d drunk .° 4 I instantly experienertd its salutary •• effects, My tongue, which wad formerly deprived of moisture, now receiv4 abundance of it, and I was enabled to relies- k r-se to him the tale of woe, at the recital of :;hick he was es xceeed . 1 ' • ing,y af fected. Beiaag again served with '7O rounds of cartridg e s I took my station in the pi ' • piquet, NA: me h shortly after commenced firing down • u•oon the light troops of the enemy. By this ' n time the skirmishing had become general ''.4 l ong the front of the whole line, and nun - :.erous individuds were dropping their mortar vestments to • appe, r before the tribunal of ',;ne Omnipotent. One of my acquaintanecs.,..Who had his station next me, received a sly: it in his left eye ; he fell back upon the met es, where, after a few short struggles, he eY: i nred. After firing two rounds, and in the act of disliarging a third—after his fall—the flint of my fire-lock gave way ; a circumstance which induced me to fall out, in order to replace it. The officer who commanded tho company de manded my intentions for doing so ?„ I told him ; he seemed satisfied, and then Waved his - hand as a signal of his compliance. My place was instantly occupied by a corporal, who, a'Aut two Is s inntes afterwards, received a mortal\eound, k which, speedily terminated his existence : . I seri , ously thought within myself; that t• ail I remained there longer I would undoub' atu y have shared his fate. This reflection produced a temporary tear, which can by - ,10 means be imputed to pu sillanhnity. I 'looked upon the individual who was subju g at e d by this principle, in time ofopen combat, as exposed to the greatest peril, and that he who perforias. his duty- with active courage was the most secure Havin, , fixed my flint with these coasidera rions, I sprung forward to my place, • 1 aet again c ommenced the work of death. 'again commenced had fired about thirty rounds, when we were unexpectedly relieved by another piquet ; and in order to avoid the fire of the enemy, which 1111;4.1t prove more destructive to us when retiring - •e in a body, we were ordered to marcl a o. in small detached parties. In this mangier we proceeded up tho hill, and reached - t tne summit in safety, when each joined his • respective regiment in the _me.— Eadie's Recollections.
