FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 13, 1835. A. Great Political Dinner, at which above seven H undred Reformers were'present, was given on Wcd ''esday last, at Bath, to General PALMER and Mr. it °EnucK, the liberal Representatives for that city. Colonel NAPIER, the celebrated historian of the P eninsular . war, was present at this dinner, and took til e opportunity of delivering one of the most elo quent—the most sagacious—the most manly and patriotic speeches we ever had the good fortune to read- We intreat our readers to peruse thiSadmirable ° ration with attention, for we can assure them that it is a store-house of political wisdom. The Gallant Colon e l is a Reformer of the true stamp : he is no adv ocate for wild or revolutionary changes ; no crack brained theorist ; but a sage, experienced man of the world, whom one may point to with pride as being an 11 4 glish man . W e wo nder the R e formers of Devizes have never seen fit to propose him as their Repre sentative. He would do the greatea credit to their Ch oice, for we, verily believe that there are not two other, such i men in the House of Commons. The Colonel is of course an advocate for the • r e Peal of the Septennial Act, the extension of th e Suffrage, the vote by Ballot, and a Reform of the I °l -Ise of Lords, thouah at the same time he dissents, 4. .14hIcit. the properly, from Mr. ROEBUCK'S doctrine , elt the Upper House should be abolished altoge er• Ther e i s a d emo cratic tyranny as well as an it i lst octatical one ; and Reformers as we are, in the Il st Comprehensive sense of the term, we cannot but fe el that a solit a ry House of Legislature, with no m ' ° lesonte, counteracting power, to exercise a partial e u enee on its proceedings, would be very apt to de generate into a despotism. It is for this reason that We • are advocat e s for a second House, though we I v °lli d have it s i rres p ons ibility wholly clone away with, 5 0d the elective principle, to a certain extent, intro ced int o i t . A s at present cons tit u t e d, Mr. Roe- Ile of e „.. 1 is perfectly correct in prcnouncing the House " a nuisance ;" but there are ways and me ans of abating this nuisance, without having re- tourse to his :desperate temedy. He would destroy. We would re-model. It gives us pleasure to find Mr. HUME is of the same way of thinking. We have received the whole of the Paris papers of Wednesday. The Journal des Debats has an article on a speech said to be delivered by the Emperor of RUSSIA to the Municipal Authorities of • Warsaw, on passing through that city on his way from Toplitz to Petersburgh. We had before heard of this cele- brated speech ; but never before were we favoured with a sight of a copy of it. We had heard that copies of it had been transmitted to Vienna, Berlin, and Paris ; we had heard, moreover, that the . Russian Govern- malt was anxious to suppre3s it, in consequence of some observations which the Kirig of PRus- SIA made upon it; but now, that it is before us, we cannot help being impressed with a convic- tion that it is a fiction from beginning to end. We hold it to be next to a moral impossibility that the Emperor NICHOLAS, acting under the advice of such a cool cautious diplomatist as NESSELRODE, could express himself in such language to a body virtually nominated by himself. The Municipal authorities of Warsaw are the veriest slaves and tools of the Em- PEROR. He himself knows this, and knows too that it is a part of their instructions to lose no occasion of prostrating themselves at his Imperial feet, and assuming the representation of Poland, to offer him, in its name, the homage of his loving subjects. Besides he knew that the eyes of all Europe were upon him, and that he could not give expression to a single sentiment which would not be instantly wafted to the shores of Britain —the asylum of the patriot Poles. As the document is a curiosity in its way—as it contains, if not the language, at least the thoughts of the EMPEROR— and as its publication in England may lead to some diplomatic correspondence on the question of its authen ticity, we subjoin it : SPEECH Or HIS MAJESTY THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA TO THE DEPUTATION OF THE CITY OP WARSAW, ON THE 10TH OF OCTOBER, 1835. " I know, Gentlemen,' that you have wished to address me ; I know even the contents of your speech ; and it is to spare you a falsehood that I do not wish that address to be delivered to me. Yes, Gentlemen, it is to spare you a false hood, for I know that your sentiments are not such as you wish me to believe them. And how can I trust you when you held the same language to me on the eve of the revo lution? Was it not you that five, and eight, years ago, spoke to me of fidelity and attachment, and made the most glowing professions of devotedness? Some days after you violated your oaths—you perpetrated horrible deeds. " The Emperor Alexander, who had done for you more than an Emperor of Russia should have done, who overwhelmed you with favours, who favoured you more than his own sale jects, and rendered you the most flourishing and happiest of nations, the Emperor Alexander was requited with the blackest ingratitude. " You have never been content with the most advantageous situation, and you have' ended by yourselves marring your happiness. I now tell you the truth in order to fix our mu tual situation, and that you may clearly know what you have to expect, for I behold and speak to you for the first time since the disturbances. " Gentlemen, I want actions not words : repentance must come from the heart ; I speak to you without warmth—you see that I am calm ; I have no resentment, and I shall do you good in spite of yourselves. The Marshal who is by me fulfils my intentions, seconds my views, and thinks also of your welfare. (On these words being uttered, the members of the deputation saluted the Marshal. ) _ _ " Well, Gentlemen, what mean those salutes ? Above all, duties must be fulfilled, and you must behave with honesty. Gentlemen, you have to choose between two alternatives—to persist in your dreams of an independent Poland, or live quietly as faithful subjects to my Government. " If you persist in your dreams of a distinct nationality, of an independent Poland, and all those illusions, you can but draw on yourselves the greatest calamities. I have caused a citadel to be erected here, and I declare to you that; on the slightest disturbance, I will cause this city to be battered, I will destroy Warsaw, and most certainly it is not 1 that shall rebuild it. It pains me to speak to you thus. It is painful to a So vereign thus to treat his subjects ; but I speak thus for your own good. It is your business, gentlemen, to merit that the past be forgotteri. It is only by your conduct and devoted ness to my Government that you can accomplish it. " I am aware that a correspondence is kept up with foreign parts; that bad publications are sent hither; and that attempts are made at perverting the public mind. But the best police in the world, with a frontier such as yours, cannot prevent clandestine communications. It is your own business to inter cept them, and avert the evil. ." It is by properly rearing your children, by inculcating to them principles of religion and loyalty to their Sovereign, that you can continue in the right path. " Amidst all the commotions with which Europe is agitated, and of all the doctrines that steal:: the social edifice, Russia alone remains strong and untouched. " Believe me, Gentlemen, it is a real happiness to belong to this country, and to enjoy its protection. If you behave well, f you fulfil your dutie;, my paternal solicitude shall be ex :ended to you, and, in spite of all that has passed, my Govern- - . ment will always watch over your welfare. " Remember well all that I have said." Poland cannot be so sunk in wretchedness as to 'ear such language, as the above addressed to her, and .et• be incapable of resenting it by a movement, a word, or even a look. Her name has been erased from the map of sovereign States, but the mighty heart which animated her in her memorable struggles for independence throbs with life indestructible. If she raise her arm, assuredly she will not cry in vain to England for succour and support. Our Government is now sensible of the error which it committed in suffering the downfall of Poland, and the people of England are prepared to re-assert her nationality with Le sword, whenever such an aypeal to arms becomes necessary. A war with Russia would be doubly po pular : First, because it would be a war of principles in Europe ; and secondly, because it would wipe away the stain which the subjugation of Poland by the CZAR 'has cast upon the. free Governments of England and • France. The expense might frighten some ; but, with a reformed Parliament, Eng land would take care to saddle with the costs, the Power whose tyranny first provoked the com mencement of hostilities. We are persuaded that, sooner or later, a war with Russia is inevitable, and our opinion is, the sooner the better. In such a war France would be obliged to unite her arms with ours ; and with such an ally* we could have nothing to fear, were all the Northern Despots to combine against us. The expected departure Irom Paris of the American Charge d'Affaires has created a good deal of stir in the diplomatic circles. The French Charge d'Affaires at Washington has been recalled by his Government ; and as a number of vessels of war have been ordered to take their stations off the Balearic Islands, to act in case of emergency, it is evident that hostile move ments on the part of the States are apprehended by the French Ministry. To-morrow, we are informed, Mr. BARTON sails. for Washington. There is not much intelligence from Spain, but the little there happens to be is favourable. Eighty millions of reals have already been subscribed to defray the expense of the army, and every post brings fresh additions to that sum, accompanied with congratulatory addresses from the Municipal bodies, acting in the name of their respective cities and pro vincial districts. It was rumoured in Madrid that General ALAVA, late Ambassador at the Court of London, was to set out in a few days to Paris, charged with a secret -mission to the King of the FRENCH. The object of such mission was whispered to be some scheme for effecting a closer union between M. MEN DIZABA L and the leaders of the Doctrinaire Cabinet. The condition of the Carlists in Navarre is reported in the French Journals to be exceedingly deplorable. There is a scarcity of provisions, and everything is excessively dear, in the disturbed districts. The troops are ill supplied with food and clothing, while the cold, in many places, is nearly intolerable. PARIS, Nov. 11.—It was known on 'Change, that at a Committee of Underwriters it has been resolved, " that con sidering- the turn which our relations with the United States are taking, insurances against the risks of war for the year (risques de guerre a l'annee) shall not be signed under 5 per cent. for a year's voyage." This Vommittee was composed of the heads of several of the principal houses of this city, who last week would not have hesitated to sign policies from the same risk at two, or at the most 2i per cent.—Journal du Commerce. A letter from Roses of the sth of November gives some melancholy particulars on the situation of Catalonia, of which we judge by the fact, that in order to transfer in safety the Carlist Colonel, O'Donnell, and some other prisoners, from Figueiras to Barcelona, it was necessary to embark them on the 2d of this month at Rosas. The letter continues : " The embarkation of the troops from Oran is entirely cem pleted. The Duquesne sailed on the 28th October, the Sei / io on the Ist November, and the Vile de Marseilles on the 3d. Each of these ships took about 1,100 men, in all 3,300. The 500 remaining will be taken on board at Port Vendre by the Agathe. " The embarkation of these troops has been elected with remarkable despatch, thanks to the activity of Lieutenant Disssau, commanding the Chimere steam-boat, why got all the 3,300 men on board in five voyages. It seems strange that the Government did not provide two steam-boats, which would have saved time and expense. . . " There remains in the bay of Rosas the Vteolre frigate, of 44 guns, and the Alert, brig of 20 guns. The Victoire, which is one of the ships that had the cholera on board at Mahon, will go to Toulon to be dismantled an I purified, as well as the Nestor and Triton. The Galathea will take its place on the coast of Catalonia. " We have already stated the convocation of the Chamber is to be on the 28th December. If such is the resolution of the Ministry, it is strange that it is not yet published. It is but just that the Deputies should be informed in time to ar range their private affairs at their leisure, and to attend the opening of the Session without inconvenience. Six weeks are certainly not too long a time, if we consider the great distance of many of the departments. Perhaps the Ministry intends to inform its most devoted partisans individually, cnd to delay the announcement of the convocation as long as pos sible, in order to have the advantage in the first operation of the Assembly.— Temps. It is confirmed that the Chambers will be convoked for the 28th December..lllessager. FRENCH FUNDS.—Paitts, NOYEMBER 11. Fire per Cents., 108 f. SOc. 75c. SOc.

General ALAVA was on his way to Paris, charged with a secret mission to LOUIS-PHILLIPPE, the object of which is to form a strict alliance between the Cabinets of France and Spain. We have received a long Report of the proceedings which took place at a meeting of Agriculturists, con sisting of deputations from the Agricultural Societies of the counties of Bucks, Cambridge, Warwick, East Suffolk, - Lincoln, and Worcester, held yester day afternoon, at AyleSbury, at which the Marquis of CH ANDO s presided as Chairman. We can find nothing of any importance in the several speeches delivered on this occasion, except that the farmers are preparing to make an united effort to procure relief during the next session of Parliament ; and that the Currency Question, and all other questions of the same kind, are to be thrown over beard, in order to prevent the application of useless remedies. If the farmers can prove to us how they can be assisted by Parliament, withoat the imposition of additional burthens on other classes of the commu nity, we shall most cordially co-operate with them in obtain:llg the relief which they consider as due to them from the Government. VIE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 183 THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) TWELVE O'CLOCK. Owing to the easterly winds we have but few arrivals ; only one French and one Dutch mail. No ship-letters. It appears that the American Charge d'Affaires, when the express left Paris, was still there, but was expected every day to take his departure. The French Government, in anticipation of the above event, were preparing several ships of war to be stationed off the Balearic Islands, in case of a rupture with the United States. The express from Madrid of the 6th inst. is of a very favour able description. The Spanish Government is becoming more firm every dry, and the Queen's friends are determined to up hold it both with men and money ; and all accounts agree in stating that the Carlists, finding the Spaniards in the various provinces not under the yoke of the Carlists arc determined to support the cause of the Queen, begin to despond, and num bers of their new levies are already deserting to join the Queen's troops.

LORD JOHN RUSSELL AT BRISTOL. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—Having seen this morning a letter signed " Beta," in the Times, stating that at the grand dinner in Bristol not a merchant or capitalist was present, I beg to deny this assertion. Surely " Beta" has not seen the list of names of the gentlemen who attended at the dinner, and must be ignorant of the respectability of Ricketts, Saunders, Ash, Blyth, Horwoods, &c., &c.,—men who rank high in the city as far as respectability and wealth go. (See. Bristol Gazette.) With respect to the Chairman being a Unitarian barrister, that is a Tory falsehood. Mr. Smith springs from a highly respectable family, and even the To ries of Bristol acknowledge him as such. He is no Unita rian, but attends Broadwood chapel, formerly under the pastoral care of the well-known and ever-revered Robert Hall. _ _ . Allow me to ask " Beth," as he appears to know so much about Bristol, when is Sir R. Vyvyan to have his promised dinner ?—I hope he has not been fasting through ex pectation.

His Lordship has been for several years joint manager of the oldest metropolitan theatre now standing, that in which Garrick often delighted hi s audience with his unrivalled acting, the ancient theatre in Lincoln's Inn-fields. _ A curious circumstance occurred at the Brighton Bench of Magistrates on Thursday. As a female was about to give evidence in a case, Sir David Scott, perceiv- ing that - she appeared confused, and entertaining some doubts of her veracity, cautioned her against the guilt of perjury, and observed, that unless she was disposed to fulfil the obligation imposed by the oath she was about to take, it would be better for her not to give her testimony. She hesitated for a moment, and then complied with the worthy Magistrate's advice by deelininc , to give her evidence. Sir. David then mentioned an incident which occurred at an other bench of Magistrates, at which he assisted. A re markably stout and hearty-looking man offered himself as a witness, when Sir David, having reason to doubt his inte grity, warned him of the sacred obligation of an oath, and advised him rather to decline giving- evidence than to incur the guilt of false swearing. The man paused awhile, then laid down the Bible which he had taken in his hand, and, overcome by his feelings, fainted in the arms of a by stander. LOVE GIFTS.—A complaint was made by a young woman against a young man, at Guildhall, Exeter, for detaining a watch, which excited much amusement. It ap peared that they had once been happy lovers, during which the young woman placed a watch in her swain's hands, she said, a s a l oan ; b u t h e insisted as a - gift ; and he, in his turn, complimented her with a brooch. Ultimately, how ever, Cupid took leave without introducing Hyrnen. But the lady, having since found another helpmate, demanded that the watch should be restored to her. Strange as it may appear, the Bench, at the recommendation of the law officer of the Court, had recourse to an old treatise called the " Woman's Lawier," to settle the knotty point. The passage read created much merriment. The purport of it was that gifts during courtship bad a tacit condition an nexed to them, that if marriage did not ensue the gifts were to be returned, subject to this pithy proviso, that if the gentleman had a kiss for his gifts he could only claim to have half of them returned ; but that the lawnwas more in dulgent to the lady, who was permitted, without any condi tion, to have back all. she gave. Upon this the Bench re commended the watch to be returned, which, after some little hesitation, Was complied with ; the lady having also complied with the law' by givirig half the value of the brooch. ~a,..- WARD OF ALDGATE. Last night a very numelous and respectable nveting of ele Ward of Alcigate, took place at the Saracen'3 Head, for the purpose of making such arrangements as might best promote the election of Mr. Sheriff Salomons to the vacant. Mdermanship of that Ward. Mr. MACJUN took the chair, and at the request of the meeting -called upon Mr. Sheriff Salomons to explain to them what his line of public conduct would be, in the event _ _ of his being elected. - Mr. SALompNs observed that it WAS well known that he had ever beena warm friend of civil and religious liberty, and if elected to the high and honourable office now vacant, he should discharge its duties in such a manner as would, he hoped, give satisfaction to all parties. He considered the present as an opportimity for promoting the equaliza tion of civil rights, and the removal of those distinctions which bad so long prevailed, separating man from his fellow-man, and placing absurd and unjust restrictions upon their commercial and political relations.—(Cheers.) If it : I ,;;ldbe s his good fortune to be elected, he should know no distinction of sect, party or religion, and if at_any time his conduct should give dissatisfaction to the Wrd, or if he should find the duties of the office more onerous than was consistent with his other avocations, he should cheerfully resign it.—(llear.) With respect to reSilence, either himself or some qualified person would be always accessible to the inhabitants of the Ward ; and he should be ready:at all times to call meetings upon any subject in which the inhabitants were interested. It was not his opinion, as he believed it was that of some persons, to consider that the peace of society could be best preserved by preventing public meetings. On the contrary, he would always promote, as far as lay in his power, the free expres sion of public opinion.—(Cheers.) Mr. C. PE ARSON, being then called upon to state his opinion, as to whether there was anything in the objccton started that Mr. Salomons could not take the office, said that he felt some deliCacy in addressing the meeting, lest it might be construed into an attempt; on his part, to inter fere with the freedom of election in the ward ; but having been so called upon, he should confine himself strictly to the subject proposed, leaving the Ward to manage its own affairs in its own way. There was, in his opinion, no diffi culty in taking the corporate oaths, as the principle that re gulated the administration of the oaths to the Sheriff, regu lated that of Alderman.—(Hear.) The oaths of a freeman were administered on the Old Testament, and it was so with the corporate oaths of the Sheriff and Aldermen — there being no interference in such cases with the rights of conscience. It would be absurd to suppose that the Cor poration of the city of London would have evinced so nar row a spirit of liberality as to admit those of the Jewish persuasion to the freedom of the city only, while it refused them the enjoyment of its higher and more honourable offices. Some difficulties might be supposed to arise out of the declaration, which, on the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, had been substituted for the eccle siastic test. The provisions of the Bill passed in July last, dispensed with that declaration at the present period, and a Bill of indemnity was annually passed, which, having prospective as well as retrospective operation, carried over the exemption from year to year. Sheriffs of counties, civil and military officers of every rank and station-, were by the strict construction of the statute, called upon to make, the declaration at the quarter sessions, lie had sParched the offices of the various clerks of the peace round London, and he found that in no such ease.hati the decla ration been signed, the parties relying upon the exemption contained in the Bill of Indemnity, which • dispensed With Mr. Salomon's subscription. Even the present Attorney- General bad not signed the decleration, and thus the first law authority in the land was contented to hold his office subject to the same pains and penalties as those to which Mr. Salomons would be .. exposed, relying as he did, upon the annual Bill of Indemnity, which afforded to them, both an effectual protection against the pro visions of a statute which bigotry and intolerance had succeeded in producing, when the liberality of the age erased from the Statute Book the odious laws which ren dered a sacred religious rite the test of admission . to civil office. (Cheers.) Mr. Pearson again apologized for speaking at the •meeting—he had refrained from interfering in any way at the, election, as he wished the Ward to exer cise their elective rights without being subject to any fo reign influence. Were it otherwise, the Ward might have been deluged with the solicitations of friends of Mr. Salo mons of every sect and party, both political and religious, who were desirous that a man so respectable and honourable in public and private, should be elevated to the situation to which he aspired.—(Cheers.) Mr. Sheriff SALOMONS stated that after the eiposition of the law which had just been given, he perhaps might re main silent, but he felt himself as a gentleman called upon to say that if by any accident the annual Bill of Indemnity should be •stopped in its progress (the possibility of which he could scarcely contemplate), he would cheerfully re sign the gown if there was the slightest legal impedi ment to his performance of each and every one of the duties which it entailed upon him.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") Nay, more, if ever he found the duties of the station such as that he could not perform them with credit to himself and advantage to the ward, or if ever the inha bitants of tne ward should intimate their desire to termi nate the connexion, he would lay down the office with as much composure, and as much good will, as he now felt towards them, when earnestly and confidently soliciting their suffrages.—(Cheers.) Mr.. PRITCHARD moved, and Mr. GILL seconded the fol lowing resolution, which was unanimously carried :--- " That this Meeting are highly grwificd with the statement of his opinions, as delivered.this evening, by Mr. Sheriff SalO moos, who was long known as an inhabitant within the Ward of Aldgate, and whose family before him had resided there for the greittcy part of a century ; and this Meeting arc of opinion, from the untarnished honour and high character which himself and family have ever maintained, that, in elevating the Sheriff to the office of Alderman of his native Ward, they will secure to the inhabitants a gentleman in every respect qualified to till the office, with honour to himself and advantage to the public. Mr. SALOMONS had just been handed a letter, which would make it necessary for him to detain therri a few minutes longer. It was very unpleasant for a man to be obliged, in standing forward to defend.himself, to giVe him self a good character. He certainly should not have come forward to defend himself on the present occasion, if he had not been called upon to do so by a gentleman upon Mr. Humphery's Committee, who had thought it necessary to publish an excuse for being on the Committee.—(Hear, hear.) The letter was from 'Mr. Morris Emanuel, a very. respectable gentleman of the same faith as him self, and whose family had long been residents of the - Ward. He was now canvassing for Mr. Humphery, and lie (Mr. Salmons) was glad to find that he had thOught it necessary to put forward a statement of his reasons for being upon Mr. Humphcry's Committee. The letter was addressed to Mr. Salomon's Committee, and was as follows : " TO MR. SHERIFF SALOMONS' COMMITTEE. "GENTLEMEN—Having understood, from some of the Gen tlemen of your Committee, that it was stated that I espoused the cause of Mr. Humphery from interested motives, I hereby explicitly declare, although I have a great friendship for that Gentleman, I should have most certainly not interfered in his election, but, on the contrary, I should have considered myself, being of the same persuasion as Mr. Sheriff Solomons, - bound to have furthered his views, had he not so explicitly evinced his decided objection to assist his afflicted brethren, in contri buting towards the erection of an Asylum for the distressed sick of his own persuasion, which clearly shows how - lukewarm he is in their cause :—whereas, on the contrary, when applied to in October last, Mr. Humphery, who is not of the same faith, came forward most disiaterettedly and liberally in their behalf ; and, from that cause, I considered I should be render ing the Ward a service by introducing a gentleman of such philanthropic feeling, to represent their interest in the Court of Aldermen. - • " I ant, Gentlemen, your most obedient servant, recteii- " MORRIS EMANUEL. " No. 1, Bevis Marks, Nov. 1, 1835." This was the defence of Mr. Emanuel, or his motives for supporting Mr. Humphery, although he did not know whether it did not heedlessly contain a reflection upon him (Mr. Salomons). He could not say it was put forward in opposition to himself, but it certainly was in opposition to the great principle which. he (Mr. S.) was then engaged in fighting for. He would tell them as nearly as possible the history of the transaction ; as, if the matter were not personally knownas well to others as to the members of his own faith, so much weight would not have been attached to it. His refusal had seemed important in one instance, because it was well known that lie was a supporter of all the in stitutions of the metropolis—(Hear, hear) —not alone those of his own faith, but of others. Some gentlemen had called upon him, who wished to establish an hospital exclusively for Jews. He (Mr. Salomons) thought, offer being settled in that country for so many years, increasing in wealth. and numbers, without feeling the want of an hos pital of that sort, that it was unnecessary to set such a projoct on foot. The community bad been rapidly draw ing together—all mankind were beginning to feel that they were born of one common father, and if there were eccentricities and peculiarities of a harmless na ture ture among some sects, why should they not .be in dulged.--(Great cheering.) The arrangements of the London Hospital were most liberal with respect to Jews, and hitherto it had served every purpose for which it had been originally instituted. He (Mr. S.) had said to the deputation, if they would establish a general workhouse and add-an hospital as a portion of it—if they would do this to assist the poorer Jews, and check pauperism, he would give, not ten, but one hundred guineas. Such was the trumpery and unmanly charge now brought against him. —(Hear, hear.) He would tell them further that he had been again asked since the commencement of his. canvas to contribute to that proposed undertakin g , but he had re plied that if a five pound rote would buy the Ward of Aldgate he would not give it.—(Much cheering.) He _• • trusted this explanation would be c)n::(' ere 1 sati:fic:ory ty the meeting.—(Hear and cheers.) Mr. AARON Lxvi was one of th th ce pe-sons who d wa'ted on Mr. Salomons, and wcul 1 collo .orate the state ment of that gentleman. The following resolution was then propose l : " This Meeting are of opinion, from the ex danations.which have bean given, that there is no foundatio for the redort which has been industriously circulated, that M Salomon 3, if elected; cannot take the oaths of office. Th s Meeting do therefore pledge themselves, collectively and i idividually. to do every thing in their power to secure the election of that gentleman." Mr. R. C. BEICKNALL, in moving its a d•ption, compli mented Mr. Salomons upon the manly and independent course he had adopted on that occasion, and animadverted in a forcible' manner upon the impolicy of subjecting per sons to civil disabilities on account of their religious opinions. The resolution was seconded by Mr. GORTHEY, and carried unanimously. • • " Resolved unanimously,—That the thanks of this meeting are eminently due, and are hereby given, to Mr. George Machin, for his zealous and polite attention in the chair this day." It was stated before the meeting separated, that Mr. ,She riff Salomons has always been a liberal contributor to tl-e Charitable Institutions of the metropolis, without reference to sect or party ; in proof of which the Committee adduced the following charities as those with which, (among others) within their 0.. ;nowledgc, the Sheriff was connected : Christ's Hospital, Governor; St. Ann's Society School, Go vernor; London Orphan Asylum, Life Governor ; Infant Orphan Asylum, Life Governor; London Hospital, Life Go vernor; Jews' Hospital, President; Society for Foreigners in Distress, Life Governor ; North London Hospital ; Cha nty for Necessitous Poor ; Jews' Free School ; Society for Clothing Boys and Girls ; Printers' Pension Society; Royal Humane Society ; Children's Friend Society ; Licensed Victuallers' Society, Life Governor ; Jews' Blind SociAy ; Bethlem Hospital, Governor; Dispensary for Diseases of the Ear. After three cheers for Mr. Salomons, the meeting broke up. THE MARKETS.-THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. There are moderate arrivals of Wheat and Barley this week, and a good return of Flour.

From the Edinburgh Evening Courant.) Without entering into minute details, it may be stated generally, that the railway affords a cheaper and far more cxpedtious conveyance for goods and passengers than any of the modes of carriage at present in use. So much less, indeed, is the expellee of this conveyance, that the difference where there is any degree of intercourse, constitutes a re venue, which, after defraying all charges, leaves a large sur plus to the projectors of the undertaking. The railway hetWeen Liverpool and Manchester pays a dividend of nine per cent., and the 1001. shares now sell for 210/. ; this rail way, however, passes through the most densely peopled and wealthiest portion of England, bat, on the other hand, it was constructed at a most prodigal expellee. There are other railways, however, such as our own railway to Dal keith, which has not such advantages, as, though it proceeds from the metropolis of Scotland, it leads to no other popu lous town., and yet it yields a dividend of five per cent., and its stock has risen from 501 to 70/. Such being the suc cess of a railway which has only a populous town at one end of it, we need be at no loss to estimate the profit of such improvements under more promising circumstances. We have here certain data on which to proceed ; and accord ingly it will be observed, that vast projects arc on foot for intersecting all the most populous districts of the country with railway communications. It is estimated that the stock of the new railways already projected amounts to 23 millions sterling. An alarm has been excited lest speculation; in railway shares be carried too far, and end in some commercial con vulsion ; and there is no doubt, when the original share holder has no intention of a bona fide investment of capital, but merely intends to speculate on the rise of stock, and, farther, when railways arc carried through unproductive districts, and the stock is artificially raised above its value, that loss will ultimately ensue. In short, though under takings of this nature, when managed with caution and foresight, present a fair prospect of profit, yet they afford no guarantee against the folly and avidity of speculators. Capitalists who are rich, will always be the dupes of de signing knaves who arc poor, whose natural prey they are ; for poverty tends much to sharpen the wits, and there are blacklegs in the commercirl world as well as at the gaming table ; so that money may be lost by rash speculations in railway stock, as well as in South Sea stock, or in joint stock Companies for mining in South America, or in any other of those extravagant projects. But there is this difference between the railroad and those projects, that, however the stock may be raised by speculation, the origi nal scheme presents a reasonable prospect of profit, which was not the case either with the project of the South Sea Company, or the South American Mining Com pany, or the Dairy Company of this place, or any of the other wild schemes which sprung up, and withered in a day, during the mania of 1825. The railway is a solid improvement, out of which a profit is sure to be realised, and thence it opens a vast and profitable outlet for the daily accumulating capital of the country. It is at present extremely difficult to find any profitable investment for ca pital ; all classes complain ; the :nnuitants of the low rate of interest ; the merchants of the low rate of profit, in con sequence of which they require to do double the quantity of business in order to obtain the same return. The banks overflow with money, and money to lend is advertised in all the newspapers. Now, the railway undertakings present a vast field, into which this capital may flow with profit for many years to come ; and one certain effect, therefore, of the opening of new rail Ways will be, in absorbing so great a quantity of capital, to raise the value of what remains ; to raise the rate of profit, and thus, besides the specific ad vantages which they confer, to give a general impulse to commerce and industry throughout the country. In a time of peace capital tends to accumulate and overflow in all the channels of trade ; because soldiers and sailors, who formerly consumed the stock of the community, without producing any return, are now disbanded and set to work, and consume nothing without providing:in equivalent ; and the effect of this is every where felt in the increasing com petition of capitalists. Now the capital which is sunk in the Construction, of a railway, a bridge, or a canal, is .fO3. ever taken away from any competition with other capitals ; it can never again make its appearance in the money market, any more than the money which is lent to Government, and is consumed by sailors and soldiers ; nothing remains in either case but the annuity, which is no doubt capital, but of a much smaller amount than the principal sum. The capital which it will require to construct the railways al ready projected is estimated at 23 millions sterling. But the improvement is scarcely begun. Railways will yet issue from the metropolis in all directions, as from a common centre, and the populous districts of England will be inter sected by them. With the exception of the Dalkeith Rail way, and a railway from Dundee some distance into the interior, and several inconsiderable railways in the west, there is not another in Scotland. There is no railway be tween the two populous cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, notwithstanding that the daily traffic and intercourse would insure a return. The northern counties of Scotland display greater alacrity in those useful proceedings. A railway is at present proposed between Dundee and Arbroath, and between Dundee and Perth—in both cases with a fair prospect of profit. The improvement, however, as we have already stated, is in its infancy ; but, as it gradually diffuses it self, it will open new and unexpected outlets to superflu ous capital, and will yet effect a great revolution in all the existing interests, and in the aspect and general condition of the country. , NORTH WESTERN OR CALEDONIAN RAILWAY. —Among the numerous railway announcements in all quar ters of the United Kingdom, it is curious to remark, that so far back as the year 1822, when the value of this mode of conveyance was comparatively little known to the public, Sir John Sinclair, in the course of his agriultural pursuits, conceived the idea of a railway between the two British capitals ; and at that period obtained a professional report on the practicability of the measure from Mr. Robert Ste venson of Edinburgh, Civil Engineer. It must of course be highly gratifying to the venerable Baronet to observe that a company has been recently organfr.ed for the forma tion of a railway between London and York, and that the most active measures are now in view for continuing the same line of traffic to Leeds, Newcastle, Edinburgh, and Glasgow, under the general dedeminatiOn of the ". Caledo nian Railway." . _~:.~~- n ~4 a i I ~~~i
