The millers pur chased all the fine samples of New Wheat readily, and gave about 2s. per quarter advance on such, but Old Wheat, and inferior New parcels remain as last quoted. Barley fit fur malting sold freely at last Monday's terms, middling parcels, however, are very dull in disposal. Beans, both New arid OM, are 2s. per quarter higher than on this day se'nnight. Pease meet a very dull sale, the yin lity being very indifferent. Grey Pease are ls. per quar ter dearer. Good dry sweet Oats obtain rather more money than on this day sen*night, in other qualities there is not much doing. The Flour trade remains as last re ported. Rapeseed is dearer, being scarce; it obtains 271. to 29/. per last. _ PRICES ON BOARD OF SHIP. Whe a t, Red (old) '7os. 84s.

COBBETT AND THE KENT MEETING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE /MORNING HERALD. SIR,—On Monday last you published a long let• ter from Mr. Cobbett,gi ving his account of the Kent Meeting at Penenden Heath, and upon that account you have founded charges, and inserted anonymous communications, .which I am sure you would not have done were yon convinced of their fallacy or malicious tendency. As a proof that I had no wish to obtrude upon your columns, I have abstained till the present moment, and would have still abstained, but for the following extract, which y ou copied i nto the Morning Herold from Cobbett'sßegister of this morning : KENT COUNTY MEETING.-TO THE MEN OF KENT. Kensington, Oct. 28. My Friends,--Ypu will see that the speech of SHIEL, of fOur columns in length, was fabricated in London, and actually printed, in all likelihood, In:peke was allowed to open his mouth on Penenden Heath If you look at the Morning Herald, the Times, the Chronicle, and the Morning Advertiser, you will find the same speech, word for word. • Now, Sir, I appeal to your candour, whether it is fair to give currency to such a statement after.the explanation which you did me the honour to insert in your journal of yesterday ? That explanation was written in the presence of Mr. Sheil himself, ou whom• I -waited, in consequence of the erroneous reports in circulation respecting his speech. If Mr. Cobbett's assertion of " actually printed in all likeli hood," were dwelt upon by certain papers, and taken for granted as worthy of belief, I should not have troubled myself to notice the circumstance, from my knowledge of their party spirit; but when I see the thing obtain extensive circulation in your paper, I feel it not less an act of justice to myself than to the Character of the Morning Herald to set you right, at the same time that I vindicate Mr. Shen from the ungenerous imputations" - which have been lavished upon him in reference to the publication of his speech. I am sure, Sir, that'Your , wiSh is . to do justice to all parties. If you doubt my Word, consult your own Reporters, and they will tell you that Mr. Shell's speech first appeared in the Sun Newspaper on Friday night. Mr. Cobbett's insinuation that it was printing- or printed while Mr. Sheil was speak ing on Penenden Heath, is incorrect. Equally in correct is he in stating that it is impossible to transmit a report from Maidstone to London in less than four hours. Mr. Cobbett kno ws not hi ng o f what can be done by express, if he adheres to that opinion. My first express came in two hours and a quarter, and might have come in two hours. You have on more than one occasion designated the publication of Mr. Sheil's speech as a fraud, because it was not all spoken ; and some of your anonymous correspondents haVe heartily joined in the denunciation. But on whom was the fraud committed ? "On " the ignorant impatience" of the mob, who would not allow Mr. Sheil to finish his speech ? Or, on the credulity of your readers ? Were the men of Kent disappointed that they had not crushed the arguments of Mr. Shea as they had drowned his voice ? Who suffers by the " fraud ?" No one. Mr. Sheil does not deny the author Ship of the speech, or arguments, or whatever name it may be called. 80, Sir, with what consistency can Mr. Cobbett complain that a speech was published which was not all spoken, when he publishes in your paper, containing that complaint, a petition purporting to be the petition of the Men of Kent, although - not ONE WORD of that petition was read or spoken at the Meeting? I have no wish, Sir, to apply harsh epi thets to Mr. Cobbett. Such weapons are accessible to all, but they do honour to neither party. But, while I disclaim personality, I may be allowed to expose injustice. I respect Mr. Cobbett's talents, but;l admire not his candour. • As you have published Mr. Cobbett's account of the Meeting, perhaps you will allow me, who was also present, and had more opportunities of obser vation, to correct some of the errors into which he has 'fallen: I request this favour, because Mr. Cobbett persists in giving the same account in his Register of this day which you published on Monday. Mr. Cobbett was stationary in a waggon ; I rode about while the meeting was forming, and had op portunities of seeing the people who flocked to the ground. After eleven o'clock I mingled in the circle, and otherwise, till the meeting broke up, and therefore heard and saw what Mr.Cobbett could not. First, then, Mr. Cobbett is wrong in impugning the correctness of your report, while his own is not only incorrect, but decidedly partial. The meeting might have presented to his-eyes " the finest, the grandest, the noblest sight, that they ever beheld ;" but those eyes must have greatly magnified the ob jects, when he says that There were not less than two thousand men on horse. Loch, more than a hundred post.chaises, and other car riages of that description. 'Why, Sir, there were not 500 men on horseback, nor fifty post:ehaises. I had several saddle horses on the ground myself, and though I would not speak of the men on horseback to within thirty or forty, yet I am certain that they did not amount to five hundred ; and your Reporters will bear me out in this. As to the sobriety of the people, it was generally correct...A multitude of country people do not get drunk before ten o'clock in the morning; but I have seen many, very many Brunswickers, half-seas over, and some of them trying to pick a quarrel. In fact, three of them attempted to pick a quarrel with my self, when making up a part of the report for Lon don, one of them insisting that " the papers must be about them, and he hated all sorts of reports." " No Popery" was the watchword ; but few under stood its meaning. Mr. Cobbett's estimate of his own Radical ad herents is as liberal as his " men on horseback and pout-chaises ;" he rates them at 15,000, meaning thereby to include nearly all within the circle; but the portion who stuck by him did not certainly ex ceed 150. Mr. Cobbett yields the palm to Lord Winchelsea's generalship, and says-- 1 perceived nothing unfair on the part of Lord Win. chelsea or any of his people; and if they did triumph, they triumphed as fairly as any men ever triumphed in the world. How does this tally with the following paragraph in the next column, when the motion or petition of Lord Winchelsea was carded ? Mr. Cobbett says-- I prepared the immense body of Radicals by whom I was surrounded to keep their hats down when thefirsi question was put, and to hold them up when the second motion was ' put. This instruction was necessary, because nobody could hear the mumblings of either of the Sheriffs any more than they could hear the clock strike at York. Ac cordingly, when Mr. Hodges's motion was put, almost the whole of the pit, as we may aptly call it, kept down their hats, and, when the second question was put., I, standing upon the raves of a waggon, taller' than almost any body else, and distinguished dom almost all others by a very light-coloured coat, a very red-coloured face, and a very white-cloured head, lifting up my hand As high as I could stretch it, cried out in a voice as loud as I had at com mand, " Now, my boys !" ,and, all the whole meeting, Brunswickers and all, with a small exception in the three waggons of the Liberals that were nearest to - the Sheriff, and a small platoon of those standing in front of him, held up their hats. The Radicals, and I myself, were astonish ed to perceive that the Brunswickers voted with us. The Radicals were running about and aski ng one another, and came crowding to ask me, whether we had not carried it ; whether we had not got the day ? The Brunswickers now gave three cheers ; the Sheriff's were in their carriage in a moment; the whole meeting was dissolved and dispersed in five minutes , we learned upon the Green; that the . Brunswickers had carried it, but node Ot 4 M 4 ever knew the cause until Saturday morning, When - I Sent to the High Sheriff for my petition, and when I was inforMed that IT lIAD NEVER BEEN PUT AT ALL ; and that it had not been put because I called the petition the petition of the PEOPLE of Kent, and not the petition of the FREE HOLDERS of Kent ? So that, here was a pretty . pro ceeding. A pretty proceeding, truly ! and in excellent keep ing with Lord Winclielsea, and his' party's fair triumph. • Again, Sir, with respect to Mr. Sh e ll' s speec h , Mr. Cobbett betrays his spleen while he forgets him- self. He says, when Lord Darnley sat down, There arose loud calls for L 9 'd Winekelsea, Mr. Sheil rope at the satuetime with his Lordship, and had the mo d,sty to continue to speak while Lord Winchelsea was speaking, until the cries of " down Shell !" made him desist. We shall by and bye find that there was something besides mere modesty that urged this gentleman on to speak. We shall find, in short, very cogent reasons for believing that his speech was actually printing, if not print ed, in London, before he began to speak it I Now, Sir, a little lower down the column—for I quote from your own paper—Air. Cobbett says Mr. Sheil • Was not heard, at any time, that is to say, not a word that he uttered was heard so as to understand his meaning, at more than ten feet from where he stood. It was quite surprising to behold his gesticulations and the foaming of his month. With that foam he be4pangled the whole of the fore part of his own dress, and the hats, backs, and shoulders of the Reporters, the whole band of whom were assembled under the side of his waggon, as b usy as b ees, writing all the time, and he stoopi ng d own as if he was speaking to nobody but them. It was clear to perceive that he was in search of such immortality as it was in your power, Sir, to give him, and not in search of suc cess with his audience, who loaded him with every epithet of coutempt that could suggest itself to the mind of a great multitude of persons, of an endless variety of situations in life. I have interlined the whole band of reporters, &c. to show you the absurdity of Mr. Shell's speak ing to nobody but them, if his speech was "actually printing, if not printed, in London, before he began to speak it !" Why should Mr. Shell be in snitch of such immortality as it was in your power to give him, if he had insured it already ? But the ab surdity needs no comment. The whole band of re porters was not under Mr. Shell's waggon. There were not above three there. The body of reporters was before the Sheriff's waggon. But I will not enlarge any more. Mr. Cobbett stands self-con victed. he truth is that he can never• forgive Mr. Shell for having been suffered to speak before him self. The meeting throughout was one scene of ruffianly • clamour : it was not the clamour of men who disapproved of a speaker's sentiments, but the uproar of those who were predetermined not to hear any speeches at all except those of their mas ters. I mingled in every part of the circle, and can ' speak to the character of the meeting as being that of a packed crowd on the part of the Brunswickers, and a collection of people on the Liberal side indif ferent to the business of the day, solely for want of concert. They laughed at the Brunswickers, but were not serious among themselves. As to Mr. Shell's speech, little of it could be heard at the Sheriff's stand, and still less by Mr. Cobbett, who kept raving in spite while Mr. Sheil spoke. In fact, after . Mr. Cobbet t failed first in obtaining a hearing, he never stopped speaking and bawling out the most opprobrious epithets against whoever ad, dressed the meeting. But, although he was so libe ral in his abuse of others, he has not reported one specimen , of the many sarcastic strokes of wit or malice so frequently flung at himself. The only time that Mr. Cobbett remained silent was when Lord Radnor was praising him. Then, indeed, he looked unutterable satisfaction, scarcely daring to glance aside -lest he should miss a word of that " unex pected" eulogy which fell, amid thunders of .indig natiorsand scornful wonderment, from the lips of his Lordship. Mr. Cobbett's chagrin was manifest at his repeated disappointment ; but when Mr. Sheil was heard be fore him, his wrath knew no bounds. When Mr. Cobbett, at length, obtained an unruly hearing, the first sentences, which could be distinctly heard through the clamour, announced ma amend ment to the petition. "An amendment by Cob bett I" was the muttered whisper of doubt and scorn which ran through the crowd, and the coun tenances of the Liberal party fell down in shame and disgust, while those of the Brunswickers brightened into incipient signs of triumph. " That's right, .go it, old boy, and the day's our own !" was ejaculated by some ; while others bestowed terms of abuse. " He has put his foot in it at last!" " Is that Cobbett ?" and " * * * has done for them," broke out in sullen murmurs from the dense crowd within the circle ; while Sir J. Brydges, Sir E. Knatchbull, and others, chuckled with delight that Cobbett had marred the business of the day, so far as the Liberals were concerned, by thus throw ing the apple of discord among them. In fact, Mr. Cobbett's amendment secured the triumph of the Brunswickers; perhaps he meant it so to spite Mr. Sheil, and make them amends for having written twenty-five years in favour of Catho lic Emancipation.--1 remain, sir, your's obediently, THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. 112, Strand, Nov. 1. NEW APPLICATION OF THE STEAM- ENGINE. The following extract from that valuable periodi cal, The London Journal cf Arts, shows how rapidly the application of steam'power is extending through out almost every department of the Arts. We in tend to take an early opportunity of visiting the ma nufactory referred to by our monthly cotemporary:— A new application of the power of steam and ma chinery for working marble and the other costly stone used in public and domestic architecture, has been some time in operation, and is now advanced towards perfection. We have been favoured by the patentees, Messrs. Tulloch and Co., with a view of the machinery, and the process of manufacture, which is carried on at Esher-street, Holywell-street, Millbank, 'Westminster, and we are satisfied that it is calculated to add considerably to the durable ele gance of all our internal architecture. The great expence of the various descriptions of marble, as well as other ornamental stone, and thence the necessity of having recourse to moulded and other obvious substitutes, is occasioned chiefly by the cost of carriage, and by the wages of 4abour to the mason. There are few species of stone which are relatively expensive at the quarry. The ex pense of carriage has already been much diminished, and rail roads and other improved modes of convey ance may be expected, which will occasion a further reduction of this part of the cost. The application of steam and machinery, to perform the labour of fashioning the sto►je for use, must be looked for to reduce the main expence. It appears to us that Messrs. Tulloch and Co. have succeeded to a con siderable extent in the attainment of this object. When we visited the manufactory, their ►machinery was in perfect operation. The first of their series of machines was a new steam saw for cutting the marble, and on a large block fourteen blades at once were at work, dividing it into as many slabs. The patentee had, in this instance, succeeded in produc ing the motion usually commenicated to the single saw , moved by hand labour. By the hand, only One blade is worked at once. By the new machine as many blades may be worked at the same time r as there are slabs required from any block of .marble. Here the saving of labour is immense, and the saving of time no less advantageous. This machine also appears to us to perform the labour more 'safely and accurately. . The next machines were one for sanding and grounding slabs of stone, and another for polishing them. The former, of which we could only convey an accurate conception of by means of drawings, ap pears to us must also supersede hand labour; and demonstrably produce a more perfectly even surface than is at present attained by the old mode. We speak from an examination of a great variety of spe cimens, when we state that the machine for polish ing does produce a far higher, and - more durable polish on almost every description of marble, than is usually communicated by hand labour. There are two other machines, each attended with similar advantages of expedition, accuracy, su perior workmanship, and cheapness for cutting up the materials into smaller dimensions, and working and polishing mouldings, &c. Th e mac hi nery is at present applicable only to plane surfaces, circles and regular figures. F or i rregu l ar f orms and ornaments, such as Corinthian capitals, the hand of the sculptor or ll at g i irlearequired, r theoblt:etd, and nd must most common pro thec: es ss masonare l a s b re duced in expense by th e n ew mac hi nery.

When improved conveyance shall give us advantages, similar to those possessed by that people in the vicinity of the Italian marble quarries; when the mighty power of steam comes into full operation, and affords us, as it will, greater advantages than they possessed in their boundless command of slave labour, the frail fabrics of our mo dern architectural deformities must give way to edi ; aces that will equal the finest monuments of anti quity in durability, and exceed them in elegance and tplendour. SPIRIT OF TUE PROVINCIAL JOURNALS EXTRACTS FROM PROVINCIAL. PAPERS RECEIVED Tit DAY, (From the Leeds Mercury.) The Brunswickers maintain that the result of the Kent Meeting shows, that a vast majority of the people of Eng land are hostile to Emancipation. This, however, is more easily asserted than proved. If it is so, how does it hap pen that the representatives of so many of our large towns, where the greatest freedom of election exists, are friendly to that measure? and that the candidates who came for ward tinder the banners of " No Popery" at the last elec tion, were so frequently defeated ? How does it happen that the representatives of Westminster, Southwark, Not tingham, Preston, and Reading, where almost every resi dent inhabitant has the right of voting, are friendly to Eman cipation ? It cannot he said that the opinions of the inha bitants have not been tried. They were tried at the last election, and the result was, that at the four last-men tioned places the Anti-Catholic candidates were entirely de feated, and the friends of religious liberty uniformly triumph ed. If the result of the Kent Meeting proves that the thinly scattered and ignorant population of the agricultural districts are in general hostile to Emancipation, the result of the contests to which we have alluded, proves that the inhabitants of the great towns of the kingdona—the focuses of knowledge, wealth, and independence, are favourable to that measure. The defects in our representative system prevent indeed the opinions of almost all the great towns of the kingdom, except those which we have mentioned, from being collected in the same manner. The green mounds of Gatton and Old Sarum are represented, but the inhabitants of Birmingham, Leeds, Sheffield, Bolton, Blackburn, Huddersfield, Bradford, Halifax, and Wake field have no representatives to speak their sentiments in Parliament ; they have to pay the taxes and obey the laws, but have no share in imposing the one, or passing the other. Their opinions therefore cannot, as we said, be collected in the same manner. There is, however, a test by which it is possible to form something like an estimate even of their sentiments, and that ie, by considering what are the principles of the Newspapers that are most generally read by them, and most extensively circulated. It is scarcely necessary for us to say, that men in general are guided in their choice of a newspaper by their approbation of the principles which it advocates. Now, with the exception of the Courier, which is a demi official paper, there is scarcely a newspaper possessing extensive circulation, which does not support the Catholic Claims. The Times, the Morning , Chronicle, the Globe, and the Sun in London, circulate every day, thousands and tens of thousands of copies, advocating the most unlimited freedoni of conscience. Precisely the same state of things exists in the country, and we attribute no small portion of the support which we have received, to our firm and un wavering assertion of those principles. These facts can only be accounted for on the supposition that a majority, and a very large majority, of.tbe reading and thinking part of the nation are favourable to the Catholic Claims. If they were, nut, the liberal papers would be in as miserable a state as the great body of the illiberal ones are at present ; that is, dying from sheer want of support. We do not deny that enemies of Popery, witchcraft, and other branches of the black art, have a majority in the agricultural dis tricts in the south, but it is evident that they are in a mi serable minority in all the great towns of the kingdom, and in those districts where wealth and knowledge have made the greatest progress. While this is the case, we have little fear of the contagion of Kentish bigotry spreading very extensively. (From the Dublin Morning Register of Friday.) It comes out in the Morning Herald, that Mr. Shed, in giving his speech on Penepden Heath, for publication, yielded to the request of the various reporters attending from the London Journals. An infamous paper; edited, we are told, by one of the Beacon gang, who became so notorious some time ago in Scotland, alleged that Mr. Shell " took compensation for furnishing his speech."— This was just such a lie as the assertion of the Mail (as yet uncontradicted) that he received 350 guineas for his services at the Clare election. The noise that is made about this speech is truly laughable. The question seems not to be, whether it was good or bad, but how it got into the public journals, or whether it was put upon paper before h was spoken. Supposing it was prepared and got by heart a year ago, was it the worse speech on that account ? Of all the wild and foolish things said of it, of course that which we find in the Courier is the most stupid and outlandish. The Editor of that (now) ridiculous Journal swears, " that it was consigned to manuscript before it could have been spoken." If that was the case, it was very likely that it was actually spoken, for in the entire there is not more matter than could be recited in an hour, and even Cobbett admits that Mr. Sheil was nearly that space of time upon his legs. The courier, however, will be bound by its corporal oath that it was not spoken at all. And why is it so positive upon this point ? It says the speech was inaudible. It says a mole could not have beard a word of it connectedly—and hence it con cludes that it was not spoken I We have heard of a con troversy springing from the stealing of a horse, and turn ing, not upon the fact of the felony, or the identity of the perpetrator thereof, but upon the shape of the field in which the animal was grazing. It must be admitted that the dis pute amongst the sagacious Editors of the Cumberland press, as to the reporting of Mr. Sheil's speech on Penen den Heath, beats this famous controversy all to nothing ! ! Why do not the besotted Editors leave the perfectly insig nificant question of the reporting to the little children and slavering old women of their tribe, and try what they can do i❑ the way, of replying to the facts and arguments of this truly admirable effusion of learning and - intellect ? HUMANE AND ELEGANT RECREATION:- In the report of the Duke of St. ALBAN'3 falconry exhibi tion in the Lincoln Herald, there are the following pay_ sages The bird was followed and overtaken by the hawk, who struck it down at the extremity of the railing with violence, and killed it in the boldest style, having struck off its head."—" A bird was loosed ; it flew east, and the hawk slid into the same direction. The bird made for the hedge at the near side of the course, when the hawk suddenly descended on it, struck and seized it in its talons at the same moment, bearing it shrieking to the earth, within little more than 100 yards from the com pany. The bird was found quite dead, with the flesh cut by the blow as with a knife up the thigh' and along the side, with its head nearly off. This feat excited the most unanimous plaudits, and was received with the eclat of a superior theatrical performance."
