SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The Tories, we are informed by their organs, are ready to reform all proved abuses." The diffi culty, however, is to establish the existence of an abuse to the satisfaction of the Tories. They de- Sire us to prove abuse, with an inward predetermina tion to disallow the applicability of the term in every given instance. Could we convince the Tories that anything in Church or State was not as it should be, thev would redress the wrong immediately ; but to bring any such conviction home.to a Tory understand ing is impracticable, and, consequently, were it to de• rend upon the Tory party, there would never be the last mitigation of gri e v a n c e. To conviction more is -necessary than proof : there must be a disposition to Nield to a fair amount of demonstration, and the Tories , being utterly deficient in this requisite, argument is thrown away, for conviction is hopeless. The Tories were never .'ct convinced of the existence of an abuse ; and it is reasonable to presume that they never will be. The Reformers will continue to prove abus es , no t w ith the hope of making the Tories sensible of the justice of their conclusions, but because a wise nation will make no change in its laws, customs, or institutions without proof that the change is called for. To endeavour to make abuse perceptible to the Tories is like lecturing a blind man upon colours. There is a particular faculty for perceiving nuisance which the Tories want ; and it is precisely the .want of this useful sense which incapa citates them for governing a thinking people. A true Tory would walk through the stalls of Augeas with out the least offence to his nostrils ; on the contrary ; each whiff would be a breeze of Saban odours. We had a capital instance of this in the case of the rotten boroughs, and we have another example of it at the present moment in the case of the Irish Church. Th e Tories thought Gatton and Old Sarum the fairest features of the Constitution ; and they •con shier the Irish Church the very beau ideal of a religious eatablieluncut. What is to be done with such a party ? When . men extract their perfumes from the sewers, what will they acknowledge to be a stench ? Yet the Tories desire us to prove abuse Have the Tories, as a party, ever acknowledged the existence of any abuse in Church or State, at home or abroad, in Leland, Ireland, or Scotland, or in any corner of the empire Has there been a single .amendment proposed, attempted, or achieved in our laws, in our institutions, in any public department, or iu any branch of the national service, that has no: tt{et with from the Toriee the most strenuous and per tieecious o p po ? Ilas not resist ance to improve ment been ths single object of all their exertions in and out of office ? By whom but by this party lies very philanthropic plan, humane suggestion, enlight coed p; eject, or liberal recommendation, whether to ameliorate the condition of the poor, to elevate the character of the people, to diffuse the blessings of peace and liberty, or check the progress of corruption—hy w-hom but by this party . has every such proposition been +onionPly, and too often successfully, re sived ? By whom were the benevolent efforts of a Romilly to mitigate the unavailing rigours of our cri minal code obstinateiv and malignantly combated l 3 whom were the labours of a Wilberforce to put an teid to that infamous traffic in human blood which thrcatemll to bring down upon this comuitry the sorest visitations of divine vengeance opposed virulently and eely ? In whom did the huge abuses that but five }cars since loaded, disfigured, and disgraced our representative system find fervent and stench support. ers ? Name, in short, a solitary instance in which time Tories have ever yielded an atom of corruption with out a struggle, ;surrendered • a monopoly without a cooks:, or slitrered the friends of the people to re diE,cs a grieva.ce, "however cohyssaL without a blow f-r its prelervinion, and we give my the Ties -Ono. IF time Tories had prevailed, would net our statute-hook- be still the 'nine Moody code that it was when Sir Santiel llomniiiv undertook its r.forniAtion ? If time Tories had succeeded, would not the slave-trade be at this moment a branch of Brit),l) commeice, and the lash of the driver be re sonuding at this hour in the colonies? Would the I , omt , nozh-monitetitn4 abomination have ever been ex toezoishe.l !led the Tories hail their w a y ? Would stmt Corporation abuses of Eiielaird fuel :Scotland have been remedied ?' What :do the tippose that is we 1: nth ved our memories, that we have forgotten t.:mt cvent , yestertlar, that they have to deal with a ma 101 l . of iihee s and dotards ? We are desired to prove ai.u;y2s to the .iatiSfaCtiOn Of a party which saw no abuse in the convicted rottenness of Esst It etford, sshieh sew no grievance in tiattun and Old Sarum, a hie!' contended, in the face of astonished Europe, that it was meet and ri , ht that the 54table end of an old house should return two Members to Parliament, while such vast towns as Birmingham, Man chester, amid Leeds acre excluded from the repre eentatann Bat aby return to the past ? Are they a ray more culighteiled at this instant ? Have they ad vaoced a jot in liberality ? Where it; the evidence that time scales have fallen from their eves ? In the same Erm . ath in which they insolently- challenge us to prove the existence of abuSe, they talk of the unre formed Church of Ireland as they talked a few years ago o f Gettoc—t hey eulogise it as they did Old Sarum. It is perfection in their eves, and the pink and model of petfection. Every enlightened politicinu that this comory has ever produced has admitted the del,-mice of this Establishment to he 'it point of the first ditii cnity ; theigrcatest iotellects have confessed them selves at a loss to make out a case fur it ; the stoutest champions of Churches have shrunk from its yin dieation ; Pidey knew no principle upon which it was defensible ; Burke has declared that " it answers the Irish people no one purpose of a religious liAahlislonent ;" Hallam has said that its folio- ' dation " involves a principle essentially umm mist,'' amid that it has " enormously-aggravated the calai'ilities and divairection of %ti;laUit,",;'‘ . iet to theeyes of the Tories it is . without spot enal.bleraish.; to hint at the exis tence of the slightest corruption its it is saci ilege ; merely to glance at its amazing fee-owes is robbery I they see nothing- else in the country worth a moment's-thought or care--peace, civilization, and freedom, elsewhere such great and vital interests, weighed with this insti tution, are feathers in the scale. Th,. Tories tell us that we purchase its blessings only too cheaply, at the expense of the ceaseless disturbance and total civil de gradation of a third part of the United Kingdom. Such me the views with which the Tories regard the present state of the church in Ireland ; yet their organs tell us that we hav e on ly t o prone a b use to have their cordial aid in the work of reforination.—Morn. Clsrosm I:Ii(;I I Although so much is heard of Ireland,—for every wave that breaks across the Western Channel wafts hitht r the yell of outrage or the moan of suffering from her shore, —yet the actual knowledge which Eng lishmen possess of the people that inhabit, and the things that happen there, is vastly less clear and c,_an plete than their acquaintance with many countries which concern them not a thousandth part so much. Committees of the Legislature sit from time to time, and take evidence about Ireland, and report it in print ; but the extent of their inquiries, and the never wearying efforts of certain Irish members of those Counnittees to baffle and puzzle the truth, to tire out the patience of the English representatives, and to overlay the evidence with irrelevant and tedious matter, lave made the perusal of such reports a task too long and too dull for any but the most vigorous and daunt less of readers. We make pretension to be of this persevering class, and we mean that our readers shall profit by: onr labour. With this view we begin by condensing, in another part of our paper, the reports of the last session upon that vitally important subject, the creation amid registration of fictitious votes in Ire land, in other words, upon one great br anc h o f t h e s y v t em , by which the Irish elections are made to swamp the representation of Great Britain. The in quiry has yet proceeded only to two places, Belfast and Clonmel ; but the evidence touching the fraud s corn - . witted in these two towns has been made to occupy 610 closely-printed folio pages. If we add to these the report of the Longford Election Committee, ex posing, in a space of :390 pages more, the process by hich corresponding fabrications arc managed fur .counties, we shall have a total of exactly 1,000 of these gigantic pages, exclusively of the 236 which arc occupied by appendices of lists. Having. waded and butreted through the whole, in spite of all the storm, and foam, and weed, we now make fast a rope to he shore, by which all who seek it may tow themselves to land without needless expenditure of their time and toil. The duty of registering the votes, which in England is discharged by revising barristers appointed by the judges, devolves in Ireland upon the assistant-barrister who presides over the business of the Quarter Sessions, an d who, unfortunately for the interests of justice in such times as these, is not only selected by Ministers, but removable at their pleasure. Although there is an appeal from his decision when he rejects a vote, there is none front the decision by which he puts a vote upon the registry ; so that at the election an entire poll may 'De drowned by fictitious votes without redress, except by a petition to the House of Commons, before whose tribunal there is nothing certain but the expense. From the examinations taken by the Committee on fic titious votes, whose report we are now considering, and of which Lord Granville Somerset was the able Chairman, it appears that in and since 1832, when the registration under the Reform Bill began, four gentle men have acted successively as assistant-barristers at Belfast—Mr. O'Dwyer, Mr. Curry, since deceased, Mr. Mayne, and Mr. Fogarty ; and the chief tcnour of all the evidence is to show how widely the manufacture of fictitious votes was carried on, and how effectually the mischief was facilitated by the rules which Mr. Fogarty, departing from the universally approved practice of his three predecessors, thought fit to lay down for the conduct of the registration. The exami nation of the first witness, Mr. 'ODwyer, who acted as Assistant-Barrister at the first session of the registry, and by whom therefore the principles for its regulation were first marked out, affords a notable specimen of the use to which the Ministers are converting their patronage at the bar, and of the manner in which Mr. O'Connell, the- great dispenser of that patronage, con ' ducts himself toward the independent members of his own profession. Mr. O'Dwyer, in performing the functions of Assistant-Barrister, gave full satisfaction to the Radical party, and at the election was ap pointed Assessor to the returning officer by the con sent of both sides. But (as that consent demonstrates) he had the misfortune to give satisfaction to the Con servatives also ; and this impartiality, though it made hint popular with the simple people at Belfast, was justly considered at head-quarters as a high mispri sion against the sovereignty of Mr. O'Connell. It was necessary that an example should be made of such a man, for if once impartiality were to be tolerated, and that, too, in conjunction with ability, there was no security for the O'Connell system. The Government, therefore, on whose behalf Mr. O'Dwyer was employed as Crown Counsel on the circuit, received instructions to dismiss him from that honourable and valuable post in his profession ; and the excuse laid hold of was, that in his capacity of assessor to the returning officer at the Belfast election (observe, not in his office of Assistant-Barrister, but in his capacity of assessor to the returning officer), he had advised the !ejection of a Toter on account of a defect in the certificate of quali fication, after having at the registry, where he acted as his signature to that certifi- sate. Now, it appeared, that at the time when he signed it his attention had not been called to the tlefect ; end he stated to the Committee, that being convinced at the election that the certificate was in valid, he felt it would be culpable in him to evade the only right decision, merely because his had been the hand that signed the document, deeming it better, as he manfully said, to bear whatever blame might result from having sirened it, than to give nneonsetentious e(iyiee to the returning-ollicer on the adinissibilitv of the vote. When he was informed at the poll that the decision, front the number of votes it would a ff ort , as of importance to the election, he told the Counsel sup ' porting the vote that he would hear it re-argued next day, which he noderstood was ttrranoed lecurdinolv. But the caudidate, who would have h:eu the chief loser by the rejection of the vote, finding, from the prospect of the election, that he inu-t, al all c y ci d s , he defeated, seized this intimation of th e assessor as an excuse for retiriug from the Contest, and, I)::fbre the . farther argument, announced his resigna tion.; so that the assessor's opinion upon the vote ap pezns dearly to have been a mere colour for riding off with some show of credit. But it was enough for the Govermnent ; and Mr. O'Dwyer was removed from his Crown Counsel:Ad!) ore the Circuit—a situation, for the sal-;e of which he had in great measure withdrawn from his civil business, and suffered his juniors to step into his place. About the sante time, for reasons foreign to this ingoiry, but about equally unsatisfactory with the ground of Mr. O'Dwyet's dismissal, Mr. Smith, his •oliertett e in the Crown business, was dismissed likewise —a gentleman, the discredit of whose removal was : shifted by Mr. Attorney-General O'Loghlen upon his. predecessor, Mr. Perrin, and by Mr. Perrin, in his turn, as earnestly disclaimed. The thing was done, however, by sotnebody, and the Irish Government had the two connsellorships to give away. Now, who got the appointments thus confiscated ? Mr. Sauce, a Roman Catholic Barrieter, who had been assisthe,o 111. Attorney-General O'Loghlen in his office ; and , Mr. Dixon, a Member ql the National Association.... We print this without notes of admiration, because we hare long ceased to wonder at any act, however barefaced, which Mr. O'Connell may direct his Mi nisters to venture. These removals and these appoint ments having come out in evidence ueforc the Com mittee, the great contriver of- them all, who was a Member of it, felt his withers wrung ; amid he re venged himself for that annoyance by such an exa mination of Mr. O'Dwyer, as from one Member of a learned profession to another is, we apprehend, wholly without parallel, unless among other metno• ra6ilia•of Mr. O'Connell himself. The object of it was to disparage Mr. O'Dwyer, by depreciating .his estimation on his Circuit, so as to have shown, if the fact had not foiled the malice, that Mr. O'Dwyer, even laid" lie not allowed the Government cases to eu - gross hie time, would still hare had no briefs in civil causes, and had, therefore, lost nothing through the CroWn eounselship ; and the examination is actually pushed to the indecently coarse extent of- asking him, county by county, throughout the citcuit, what was the greatest number of briefs he ever held .at, any one assize—whether he will say positively that he bad two .itt any one assize, and so on. We have given this passage entire in our abstract, that lawyers may form their judgment, as gentlemen, of the emancipator's fitness for that silk gown, the denial of which was so long and so _angrily complained of, as wronging his manifold claims to represent the bar in its front. rank. We trust that such demeanour is as little like a true representation of the manners and feelings of that highly-educated and honourable profession as Mr. O'Connell's tail are like true representatives of the British people. So much, by way of introduction, touching the policy and behaviour of those for the sake of whose power and patronage the fictitious registration system is got up. Our next notice of this subject will bring us to the frauds and perjuries of the system itself.—Times. IWhatever differences of opinion may be entertained in regard to the extension of the elective franchise, short Parliaments, or eveu.vote by ballot—convinced as are now almost all honest politicians of the eligi bility of secret voting—there can be no question of the necessity of affording to those enfranchised by the Reform Act greater security and facility in obtaining their qualification than is given by the present system of registration. No one who has given the slightest attention to the proceedings in the Registration Courts for the last few weeks, the vexatious opposition given to votes of indisputable validity, the numerous instances of disfranchisement through the neglect or p art i a li ty of 0 verseers, the conflicting decisions of the Revising Barristers, and the general uncertainty of the circum stances which may be considered to invalidate claims, but must at once admit the inconvenience, unpolicy, and injustice of the present mode of registry. If it were the design of the framers of the Reform Act to mar their own work, and render the extension of the franchise inoperative by a vexatious and harassing pro cess of acquirement, they could scarcely have devised a scheme better adapted to their purpose than that at present in operation. Not dilating upon the numerous imperfections and omissions in the Act, nor insist ingnpon th e dei,pot; e t e ndency of making the franchise instrument an subservient to the collection of taxes, we shall here con fi ne ourse l ves to a f ew obser vations on the mode of registration and its effects. And, first, we protest against vesting the nomination of the Revising Barristers in the Judges. We mean not to cast any reflection on the general impartiality of the Bench in a judicial capacity, nor on the impartiality TILE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1831. and integrity of the Bar ; but where so much discre tionary power of a political bearing rests in the Revis ing Barristers, we object to the chances of their deci sions being in any wanner warped by the political bias of their patron Judge. The best remedy for this, ho*- ever, would be to simplify the nature and process of its outline qualification, define it more specifically, trace outline broadly and distinctly, and leave -not those purposed to be enfranchised by the ReforM Act cx- ' posed to frivolous and harassing impediments, inter posed by political opponents. In many instances, we are glad to perceive, the Revising Barristers have re ceived, for their impartiality and attention, the thanks of both parties ; but where such diversity of opinion exists as to the intention and meaning of the Reform Act, those entrusted with its administration should be removed, as far as possible, from even the suspicion of undue influence. Under the existing system the elec toral body is almost completely at the mercy of the Overseer and Revising Barrister. There is scarcely any qualification so secure that it may not be vitiated by either of these functionaries. Nor is the exer cise of this power imaginary. Instances have oc curred, during the present registrations, wherein the Overseer, from personal animosity, has omitted to place claimants' names on the rate-books, even though served with notice, and in consequence of these omissions the claims were disallowed. That the Revising Barris ters are not always disposed to allow their authority to remain a dead letter was proved last week, by one of these gentlemen telling a voter who complained of the trouble to which he was exposed by untenable objec tions, that unless he answered questions temperately his name should be expunged. Is this a state of things that should be suffered to continue ? Is a citizen to be stripped of his political rights through the petulance of a Revising Barrister ? In some cases claims have been rejected in consequence of the omission of a letter, such as " House" being written instead of " Houses ;" in others, the whole qualifica tion has been alloyed to be inserted. In the county of Northampton, last year, several liberal voters were disfranchised because the street in which they resided was not specified. A similar objection was this year taken against several Tories in Huntingdon, but- the Barrister refused to entertain the question. We could multiply these instances far beyond the limits we could afford to their insertion. We shall, how ever, for the present conclude w ith a h o p e , that where the evil is so manifest and its operation so ex tensive and detrimental, that one of the first acts of the approaching Parliament will be to p rov id e f or i ts retnosal.—Morning Advertzser. quire and deserve—will clash for an instant with the main object of securing office for as many Whig I Lords and Gentlemen as possible." In all this we fully concur ; and we have fairly stated our opinion— liberavimus animam nostram.. But, having done so, we feel bound in fairness to admit that, in the present case, there is a mitigating point in the conduct of "the conclave at Bowood." " Neither Mr. Grote. nor Mr. Ward, nor even Lord William Bentinck, will have a voice" in it. We confess we can sympathise with the feelings that.must have led to this decree of exclusion. The unbearable prosiness of the first, the empty pow poSity of the second, and the absolute nothingness of the last, would be a severe trial fur real patriotism. By all that was ever possessed —or rather pretended to --by the Whigs, we can well understand that it was far too much to be encountered. We must he candid. Whatever we may think of the political principles of my-Lord Lansdowne and his guests, we do not alto gether find fault with their personal tastes.--Morn ing Post. WHEAT AND FLOUR IN FRANCE COMPARED WITH LONDON NiVIIRAT.—The highest price of the best wheat in Paris, is 30 francs per 1 hectolitre, which is equal to 464. per English imperial quarter. The highest price of the best Essex and Kent wheat in London, is 645. per quarter, show ing fine wheat to be 18s. per quarter dearer in London than in Paris, or upwards of 40 per 'cent. ; and that the same money which will in London buy but eight bushels of wheat, will, in Paris, purchase 11 bushels of the finest quality. FLoun.--The highest price of flour of the " first mark" in Paris, is 52 francs per 159 kilogrammes, which is equal to 325. 9d. per English sack of 280 pounds. The highest price of the best " town made" flour in London, being iss. per sack, shows fine flour to be 225. 3d. per sack dearer in London than in Paris, or nearly 68 per cent. ; and that the same money which in London buys but 280 pounds of fine flour, will in Paris purchase 470 pounds of the very best quality. THE LATE ROBBERY OF NINE HUNDRED SO VEREIGNS.—The person respecting whose ambiguous con duct at Gravesend a paragraph appeared in several daily papers during the past week proves to have been in no way connected with the above extensive robbery. In conse quence of the paragraph above-mentioned, Mr. Ford sent Skinner, his office-keeper, to Gravesend, who, on knocking at the house where th e p ar ty was su pp ose d t o be secreted, and finding the person denied, went to the Mayor and pro cured a search-warrant. On their doing so, the sister of the person suspected stated that her brother was at Green 'lithe, and offered to go and fetch him. She did EO, in a fly, but on their arrival he proved not to be Edmund Potts. During the last week numerous communications have been received by Mr. Ford, and also by Fletcher and Ballard, the Bow-street officers, relative to the party who committed the robbery. The county - constituencies of England and Wales are dads' slandered by the slavish journals of our mi serable O'Conueilite Ministry, becatise they rejected the nominees and adherents of a faction leagued togs thcr by an unnatural - sympsthy, - and an unhallowed comi:act, to destroy the institutions, in Church and Stateto which. England owes h e r p o liti ca l an d more l superiority among the nations of the civilised werld— a moral and political superiority- which, we are sorry to say, has bctin a good deal impaired since the Whigs came into office, and which, should they con tinue any considerable time longer to exercise their malignant influence, from the high places of power, upon the destinies of the empire, would be broken down eitogether, • • . "•Aad, Ill•the baseless feric cf a vision, -- LNkve-not a wreck behind." In a discussion upon the coal ficids of Lancashire, Dr. W. Suiith remarked, that the specimens of coals exhi bited by Mr, Pease, would point out a mode by which coals could be touched without dirtying the fingers—what are technically called the top and bottom being the soiling sides, hut the cross cleft is clean--The President said, it was a thin layer of mineral charcoal that caused the soiling. An unfortunate accident occurred at Blair colliery, West of Fife, on Wednesday the 4th inst. The person whose .business it was to ascertain the safety of the mine, with a Davy lamp, incautiously went into the mine without using his Davy lamp, the fire-damp exploded, damaging the workings, and killing him and his son. Fortunately none of the other men bad gone to their work. With - ordinary precaution, and by the use of the Davy lamp,. the mine is perfectly safe. The Americans, like others, can make merry witit nation':: woes. The following is a bit of their lin p‘iy tnents wit :—" When the poet, or mor:dist, or '.viraii war, wrote Thi,4 is a world of change,' the r ITik. had not suspended specie payMents." - . . , 'Were` it to dcueud upon the will of our preeiat M.- nicre, acting in accordance with the wishes of their de struative allies, - popish, Socinian, and infidel, Eta;land, whose monarchy has flourished like its native oak amid the sunshine and storm-of ra thousand years—England, country of old and glorious assoeliitiOns, would be cemalately despoiled of the noble institutions which ‘aistoin anti patriotism had coinhined to create, and would be left as bare of the venerable memorials ancient . grandeur and rc norm as New Holland or Van liemen's Land. But, happily, all appearance:: indicate that the incapable, corrupt, and thoroughly un-English Government of the Whigs is rapidly draw ilia towards an end, notwithstanding the dishonest use winch they have made and continue to make of the Queen's name, as if the eireinastance of her Majesty allowing the Ministers whom she found in office at hr accession to meet the new Parliament, were to be taken as positive and convincing proof that the Sovereign, who is the supreme head of - the Church, sympathises with those who avow their intention to inflict upon it a " heavy blow ;" and that she who has solemnly pro fessed lice respect and love for the Constitution, isrrily anxious to promote the schemes of those who have bartered their principles for the support of the dema gogue who advocates the destruction of this Peerage and the dismemberment of the empire ! Every body recollects what freedom was taken with the Queen's name hr Lord John Russell in his electioneering letter to that vice-regal vassal of - O'Connell in behind, the melo-dramatic Niulgrave. Every body also recol lects the " rhetorical artifice," by whicli the Qaeen was described as "an excellent writer of election squibs ;" but every body may not be as well aware of another and more recent Whig-Radical testimony borne to the active interest alleged to have been taken by her Majesty in the success of the faction that wage the war of Vandal violence against our glorious institu tions in Church and State. We allude to what was said by a Mr. Hovcnden, who actedies chairman at a dinner lately given to the Whig-Radical Members for the borough of Marvlebone. On that occasion the chairman of the meeting said (we quote from a Minia terial paper)—'; To their young Queen they (the Whig-Radicals) were indebted for having rendered them at the late elections the assistance which they mach wanted. The nearly-equal division of parties told them that the result might have been very-diffe rent if the weight of the Crown had riot been thrown into the opposite scale." This is a pretty strong ad . mission of the force of the re-action which the - " re jected of Middlesex" so stoutly deities, although his own case affords one of the mostaremariaabls instances of it. When we are told upOn-Whig-Radicall auth"6- rity that the result of the elections might have been very different if the weight of the Crowe had not been thrown into the opposite scale, we must take it - as a n admission that the weight of the CroWn.was.uied to stifle the voice of the country. If it were so used, it • certainly was not very successfully employed for that purpose, as Ministers discovered when they lost 23 out of 2-1+ county contests, and were thrown entirely on the support of a spurious Irish majority.—Morn ing Herald. In the columns of our honest Contemporary the Spectator we find the following 4. While the heads of the two parties, rivals for office, are laying their schemes, the people at large are left to guess how the country is to be governed. Aristocratic intrigue has more to do with it than their wishes or interests. Their representatives will not be consulted. Neither Mr. Grote, nor Mr. Ward, nor even Lord William Bentinck, will have a voice in the conclave at Bowood. The policy of the Go vernment will be in accordance with the views of three or four Whig noblemen, who look tis the supremacy of their party, and care for little else but that and personalaggrao disement. There are a few Commoners, it is true, in the Cabinet ; and one of them, Mr. Poulett Thomson, is Member for a large constituency ; but not the least weight is attached to anything .he may urge, even supposing that . he could summon courage to say a word in behalf of his constituents, and risk his exclusion from the coteries of the grandees. At the Bowood meeting of Ministers it is not credible that any consideration of what is due to the people of England—of what they require and deserve—will clash for an instant with the main object of securing office for as many Whig Lords and gentlemen as possible."

On Saturday night, when the mail coach was about three miles to the eastward of Perth on the Dundee road, it came in contact with a carrier's; cart. The carrier had fallen asleep on the top of his cart, and the horse left to itself had gone to the wrong side of the road for the passing of the mail. We have not ascertairied'the exact manner in which the coach struck the cart, but the effect was, that the body of the vehicle was entirely detached from the carriage, and left sitting on the road. On the• separation, the driver, who held the reins, was pulled from the box and fell on his head on the ground. He was severely injured. Happily no other accident happened. The horses continued to run forward with the wheels, &c., and halted at Rossie Hill, the place where they are usually .changed.—Dundee Caul kr.

We are told that a fly lays four times during the summer, each time eighty eggs, which makes three hundred and twenty ; and it is computed that the produce of a single fly, in the course of the summer, amounts to three , millions eighty thousand three hundred and twenty-nine. A VERY EXTRAORDINARY TAILOR.—EarIy on Sunday morning last the road near Burnley barracks was enlivened by the following scene. A refractory tailor of the 97th regiment, on his way to the black-hole to atone for some delinquency in solitude and fasting, escaped the escort, and, dashing by the sentinel, came into the road with a dozen soldiers at his heels in hot pursuit. The thimble knight was not long before he took to the fields. Unen cumbered with belt or bayonet, he cleared the hedges and ditches admirably, and rapidly gained ground, when both pursuers and pursued were lost in the distance. He after wards led them an aquatic chase, twice through the canal, and finally disappeared in a neighbouring forest. No tidings of this distinguished tailor have since been heard.— Blackburn Gazette. Now there is much truth in this, though it is not new. From the year 1688 to the present moment we do not recollect any great public measure pro posed by the Whigs that was not originally concocted by some half-dozen or so of the Whig Aristocracy, for the promotion of what the Spectator, with great justice, ca ll s t h e i r " persona l aggrandisement." But, to pass over these by-gone matters, the people have never been so much as thought of in any one of the misnamed improvements introduced by the Whigs of late years. It would puzzle the most acute of that party, we suspect, to show a single instance in which the people are a jot the happier in consequence of Whig policy, or Whig legislation. Nor will they be a jot the happier now, whatever may be the result of the " Aristocratic intrigue" in progress—or about to be so—at my Lord Lansdowne's seat at Bowood. No : the country may rest assured, with the Spectator, that " no consideration of what is due to the people of England—of what the re- THANKSGIVING.—The Presbytery of Ayr, at their meeting on Wednesday last, ordained that the 16th of next month, unless a different day be appointed by the Synod, shall be set apart within their bounds as a day of Thanksgiving to Almighty God, for his distinguished good ness, manifested in the late favourable weather for the harvest, and the"plentiful crops with which the year has been crowned. The motive which has prompted this measure must be approved of by the whole community, as there has hardly ever been experienced a more auspicious summer and autumn for bringing forward and securing the various fruits of the earth ; and the crops, if they do not exceed an average in point of quantity, have never on the whole been surpassed in regard to the quality of their vari ous produce. This much may suffice for the motive which has called forth this public thanksgiving, but we are sorry to say that we cannot express ourselves so unqualifiedly es to the mode which has been adopted for testifying it. But we think to have appropriated a Sabbath for this purpose weld(' have answered the object in view much more effec tually, and have coincided better with the wishes of the public at large, than to select, as has been do , ne, an ordi nary weekday from their usual necessary avocations.— Ayr Observer.

The said editors have all the plague for aught we know ; for we have no plague here, though every inquiry has been instituted to ascertain if such a scourge of the human race has made its appearance, and not a single instance can be found ; we have severe fevers, and where deaths have arisen there from, such have happened entirely from the want of me dical treatment ; but even these fevers have now disap peared for some weeks."

The mother is likely to do well, and the children strong, and likely to live. They were christened the same day, and named John, Joseph, and Mary. Several of our townsmen have felt themselves so much interested on the occasion as to send a sovereign each to the mother, and others have made up a subscrip tion for her in smaller sums.—Sherbourne Journal. An impudent fraud was practised at the office of the St. Germain Railroad, a few days ago, by a fashionably dressed individual, who, coming in his turn to the window where tickets are delivered, in the midst of the crowd, gave a 5001. note to the book-keeper, and requested change. The latter, on account of the delay that would have been occasioned by a refusal on his part, inconsiderately changed the note, and gave 498 f. 50c., in good hard coin to the man, who immediately was wicked off in the railroad train towards St. Germain. The book-keeper, in making oi) receipts after the train had started, found the note to be forged one, and immediately set off with a police officer in a waggon in pursuit of the train.
