But as the furors which Infidelity has now assumed am novel and peculiar, the Society have also thought it neces sary to vary, in some degree, their ordinary wodes of opera tion. A Committee has, therefore, been appointed for the special purpose of searching for other Tracts, not at present on the Society's List, of opening new channels for distribu tion, and of circulating, at the lowest prices, such other Tracts and Papers as may be called forth by the occasion, and may appear to them best suited to the exigency of the moment. And it is proposed, by the means of the Commit tee, to extend to the Public at large those advantages of pur chase and distribution which have hitherto been confined to the Members of the Society, and every facility will be afford ed by the Committee in London, and by the Diocesan and District Committees in the country, to all those pious and well disposed persons, whether Members of the Society or'not,who may be desirous of giving to these Tracts that effective circu lation which it is the especial object of the Society to obtain. In order to carry into effect these extended operations, the So ciety have.already appropriated the sum of 10001. from their general Lund to this specific object. And they look confidently to the Friends of Christianity for such cordial and zealous aid, as may enable them to give the fullest effect to their en deavours. They trust that they shall be assisted by the powerful and the active in the diffusion of 'these salutary publications through all parts of the country; and that, in every place where the Word of God shall be assailed, tbd weapons also of defencc fluty be at hand, to repel the attacks of the Blasphemer. They trust that, from the pious and the wealthy, they shall find that liberal assistance, which such extensive measures will require; and that, while they are engaged in the anxious defence of all that is sacred and dear to Christians, their exertions will not be allowed to languish, for the want of due co-operation and support.

' A T a time when the Enemies of Christiaktity ' I.-L ., are em•ployed in disseminating the poison of Blasph em y and Infidelity to an unparelleled eXtent, THE SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDt consider it their peculiar d u ty to call into action all the means witlaip their power to arrest the progress of the • evil. - Upon the magnitude of that evil they deem it unnecessary to The . signs of the times are, in themselVes; sufficiently alarm ing. But the success which, - under the blessing of Protti deuce, has for more than a century attended the labours of the Society in the sacred cause, gives thim the assurance that, now in the hour of peril, their appeal to the attention of the Public will not be Made in vain. Without a general co-operation, however, of the Friends of Christianity, the exertions of the Society, as a collective body, will be productive of a comparatively confined and partial benefit. Upon their own part, the Society have not been in - - active. Directing their attention in the first instance to the ‘, Religious Works already on Aviv silt; they have published r a n the most popular forth, and at very reduced prices, such as appeared to them best calculated to check the growth of irre ligion. The extraordinary demand for these Tracts which may be anticipated, joined to the reduction of prices which has taken place, will, of necessity, be attended with much ad ditional expense. This expence, however, the Society (al though their revenue has not, in general, exceeded the calls which have been made upon them) are anxious to meet out of their ordinary funds.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION. —From calculation by the College of Physicians, no less than 40,00 C ;lie annually in Great Britain of Consumption, and at least 10,000 in London. The late William Turnbull, Esq. a very ingenious Surgeon, ascer tained that every 20(1► person was ruptured.— These co►nplaints are truly alarming to every in dividual who uses the least exertion. It is also inctedible the number that suffer from a certain Disease, by being improperly treated. It was those circumstances induced Dr. COOPER to select eminent Physicians and Surgeons, of at least 30 yeats experience, to form a Medical Board ; anti since the establishment upwards of 30,000 Pa tients have been cured without confinement— many of them after hospitals had failed. Messrs. COOPER and Co. are consulted at Woodstock -street, Oxford -street ; and at Char lotte House, Great Charlotte -street, opposite the Rev, Rowland Hill's, daily, from eight till eight. Mechanics have advice gratis eery evening, from six till b right ; and on Sunday mornings until 12 o'clock ***' RUPTURE! of 30 years standing radically cured without confinement. *4.* There are private doors at each house, and private rooms for Females. N.B. The Afflicted would do well to read Messrs. COOPER and Co.'s Lectures on two pre vailing Diseases, published at one shilling, by Mr. Harvey, 22, Blackftiars-road. They nJill also prove useful to young Practitioners.

This Bill was returned from the Commons (pre sented by Mr. BROGDEN) with several amend ments, which they requested their Lordships' concurrence. A private Bill was also presented by the same Gentleman. The Irish Election Law Amendment Bill was brought up by Mr. WYNNE, anti read the first time. Lord ERSKINE presented a Petition from the Borough of Southwark, against the restrictive measures now pending. Viscount SIDMOUTEI • moved, that the : Amend ments made by the Commons in the Arms Seizure Bill, be now taken into consideration. The 4axi Qf DARNLEY objected to an immediate consideration of the amendments made to a mea sure of so much importance. Time should be al lowed for that purpose; and in that view he should move that the amendments be printed. He felt, however, the strongest objections to the measure itself, as allowing the Magistrates an arbitrary power of search, even in the night time. Indeed, he so deemed of the measure, that he felt it his duty to oppose it in every stage, and filially, to protest against it. Viscount SIDMOUTH adverted to the thorough discussion the Bill had already received, and the extensive approbation it met with from their Lordships. He trusted, that when the nature of the case. was dnly.considered, their. Lordships would see the propriety lit not delaying their de cision upon the amendments offered by the Corn mons.—l'be amendments were then regularly stated by ;he Noble Secretary of State, who press ed an immediate decision upon them. Earl Gaosvalloa thought the objection urged by his Noble Friend (Lord D.), well worthy the attention of the House; for his part, he conceived the measure to be a most objectionable one. Viscount SIDMouTH shortly .explained, and pointed out the regular course of proceeding, if the Noble Lords were determined to oppose the amendments. The Eirl of LAUDERDALE seemed of opinion , that the amendments required a deliberate consi deration; so short an interval was not sufficient for the purpose. The Earl of DARNLEY having moved, that the Amendments be printed, the same. was negatived wilhout a division ; as was a motion from the same side of the House, that the said Amend ments be taken into consideration on that day six months. The question was then put respectively on the Amendments, which were all agreed to by their Lordships. , SEDITIOUS MEETINGS PREVENTION BILL. Viscount SIDMOUTH, on the Order of the Day being read, rose to state generally the nature of the measure then before their Lordships, and the grounds on which it was proposed for their con currence. All those salutary measures (observed the Noble Viscount) which that House had al ready adopted would be of little avail unless fol lowed up by that now under consideration, which was most essential towards averting those dangers with which the country was menaced. He felt it unnecessary to take up their Lordships' time, now, with a detail of those eircumstaiices which rendered the measure necessary. Its object ‘% as to secure the couivry front the dangers which grew out of the abuse of privileges justly dear to Englishmen, and eventually to support and uphold the inestimable Constitution of the Country.-- Those dangers were clearly, as may be seen, set forth in the preamble of the Bill. They were, be. sides, in a great degree of public notoriety ; one consideration, then, remained, whether the exist ing law was in itself sufficient, and whether these new provisions to be made by the Bill were fit to be adopted, in order to supply the deficiency ? In the existing laws there was no provision against the dangers of simultaneous meetings. There was Ito power in the existing law, in case seditious or inflammatory language was held, to enable the Magistrates effectually to interfere, or to provide that none but the inhabitants should attend local meetings, with a view to prevent the inflamma tory haranguing of itinerant orators, and who at tracted great numbers of a dangerous description of people. No provisions of this kind were to be found in the existing law, and all those were now but too. well known to he necessary. The Bill required that six days notice should be given, it, order to legalize these public meetings ; at the saute time all the rights of the subject, with re ference to every good and salutary purpose, were carefully. attended to, Such %vas the effect of the Bill sent up from the other House of Parliament. The measure, which proceeded somewhat upon a similar principle, and which passed in 1796, it was found necessary to renew three several times ; the immediate cause of that measure was a dangerous meeting held in the neighbourhood of London, and which led to the atrocious outrage which hail been committed towards the sacred person of his Majesty. If such a measure was then deetned ne cessary, how much more so it had now become may be collected from a view of the present state of the country. With respect to the duration of the Bill, the term of five years was provided, anti he trusted the salutariness of its operation would evince the propriety of its longer continuance, thereby securing the country against a recurrence of tile danger. The whole measure proceeded on the principle of affording safety w the Throne,. and security to the L aws and Established consti-
