CLEMENTS detailed the Report of the Committee. It appeared that on the 26th of March a petition was presented . to Parliament by Mr. Al derman Thorenson lAmlf, of the ,Cnach,,Pro t prietors, and ordered to be printed. liorie7zr no Member brought in any Bill to remedy the griev ances of the trade, and :11r. Hume was subsequently consulted on the matter, and he suggested that a Petition recommending the removal of the Hackney Coach Commissioners should be presented, and also p . rayin for the R e p ea l o f some o f t h e Cl auses o f th e nth Of Artne, , • This Petition was read to the Meeting by Mr. HENMAN, the clerk of the Committee. Mr. CLEMENTS then adverted to the discussions in the house of Commons upon the petition, be tween Sir John Newport, Mr. Hume,.Mr. Dawson, the Seeretary to the Treashr!;,, arid other Members, Itqne, declared that the Commissioners ought to be removed, because they appeared altogether insufficient. No notice was taken of Mr. Hume's recommendation during the Session, and the Com mittee, considering their application neglected, de termined upon sending a letter to the„Lords of the Treesirry; recotiitnehdisii tri Aet tlf Pt4rnaifient to be •passed, with the following as the basis of its clauses:-Ist, The reduction of the hackney-coach fares; .2d, That the licenses be transferreil; 3d, That all drivers be licensed; 4th, To prevent all stage-CoacheS taking up and setting down passengers in the streets; anti to oblige them to proceed to their several destinations ; sth, That all branch coaches be stopped ; 6th, To make cabriolets gene ral. To which letter they received the following reply " Tredsury Chakibers, Oth jane, 1828. " am commanded by the Lords Commissioner of his Majesty's Treisury, to acqu lint you that yOur letter of the :Id initaut, Submitting alterations in the Hackney coach Laws, has i'een transmitted to the Commissioneni of Hackney-coaches, with directions to repoit their euinion upon, with as little delay as possible. " I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " GEORGE ROBERT DAWSON. " Mr. Thos. Henmart, Clerk to the Committee of Coach Proprietors, (12, High ileitititn:" No further notice being taken of the state of trade, some further correspondence took place, which was terminated by a letter from Mr. Dawson, inform ing them that after dtie consideration the Lords Commissioners did not deem it expedient to adopt the suggestions of the Committee. Under the pre sent system, they had no coutroul over the drivers, therefore the public must expect to be plundered; and the only course to remedy the evil, would be not to make the drivers subject to the masters, and this was only to be done by adopting an Act of Per , 4iament, and which he was convinced would ensure soberness, civility, and honesty amongst the drivers. By their being all licensed, a sufficient check would be obtained over their character. lie pronounced the cabriolets to be in a great measure destructive of the trade, because in no instance had the pledges given by their owners been redeemed. The cabriolet licenFes had been granted in the most partial man. , ner, Mr. Rotch, a barrister, Mr. Bradshaw, a banker, and two half-pay Captains, named Williams and Abbott, and the Hon. Mr. Ponsonby Staples, having monopolized 150 cabriolets, which they let out at one pound a day. Mr. Clements concluded by recommending the propositions contained in the Report of the Committee. The CHAIRMAN said, that Counsel was of opinion that nothing could prevent them placing their li censed plates upon two-wheeled carriages, but the opinion also stated that it was possible, under the 48th Cleo. DI. the Commissioners might have the power to fine them 5/, for so doing. That question, however, had not been tried, and he suggested that the experiment might be carried into effect, the funds for which should be raised by a general sub scription amongst themselves. The proposal was agreed to; and a subscription was then opened to carry this plan into execution. Mr. COBB wish to 'know whether by placing plates on a cabriolet, they were not liable to lose their plates ? The CHAIRMAN replied in the negative. After some further observations, several Resolu tions were adopted, and a subscription opened, and the Meeting separated. Many of the confectioners, milliners, and other panders to fashion at the west end of the town, are said to be grievously afflicted with the tic doloreux. An anonymous letter, of which the following is a copy, has been received by Sir M. W. RIDLEY, Bart., M.P., who has given the money therein mentioned to the Dispensary of this town : " Newcastle, Aug. 9th, 1828. " Sir,-1 swindled your late father out of 31. Ss. about 30 years since. lam extremely sorry for what I did. I have enclosed the amount. May the Lord bless you, deer Sir, and all your family, is the prayer of your obedient servant."

All the measures adopted by Mr. CANNING to retrieve us from the consequences of that po licy, have, since his death, been one by one renounced, and we now are resuming, as quickly as possible, the political position in which CASTLEREAGH left us. We have de nounced the victory of Navarin, which, had it been pro perly followed np, would immediately have established the independence of Greece, and thereby secured the peace of Enrols,; we have recalled the brave Commander who gained for us that brilliant victory, while the French and Russian Commanders, who fought in concert widi him, are loaded by their Governments with praises and honours.— We are, from an affected desire to avoid war allowing Russia, France, and Austria, to pursue plans of individual aggrandisement, which will ultimately either force us into a war at fearful disadraotages, or degrade us to the . rank of a third-rate European State ; and, lastly, indelible disgrace has been brought upon the national character, by the part which our Govern ment recently acted towards Sir FREDERICK LAMB, our , late Ambassador at Lisbon, and still more by its appoint ing such a person as Lord STRANGEORD to act as our Plenipotentiary at Brazil, for the purpose of inducing the Emperor Pena° to acknowledge the right of his infamous brother to the throne of Portugal ! In another part of to day's Paper, we have so liberally extracted from the French and English Journals relative to all these topics, that it would be superfluous here to discuss them, since we could only reiterate the sentiments expressed in the extracts copied from the Journals alluded to..

RESURRECTIONISTS.-During tho interment of the late Mrs. HORNBUCKLK, of this town, yesterday afternoon, at Fishtoft, a small village in the neighbour hood, it was discovered that the grave of her late husband, who has been dead solue months, had been opened, the breast-plate wrenched from the coffin, the lid raised, and the corpse removed from its usual position. It is conjectured that the wretches who thus violated the peaceful precincts of the grave were disappointed of their object by the coffin being bound with iron, which prevented the removal of the corpse; they therefore suddenly desisted, but left be hind them traces of their intention...Bodon Gagette. 1 1 , MANSIOPI-IiOrSE.--A few, days sin ce a ease was 1 - ro - Itglit teftee tie I.:9,tzgAT which is likely to prove of considerable Importar.Ce .1)4: i!avlgatipn,ef !lie river, and to the General Steam-boat Navigation a.i:etl:"atir. Two gentlemen applied to the LORD MATOR. for a moos against the Captain of the principal steam-boot which carries passengers from Gravesend to Loudon. The corn plaint against the commander of this boat was, that he had ed. fot itiis faref i syhet.7,he sy,a by law only enti tled to demand td. TLlti itifiltiort of n lase, to regulate the fares of steam-boats excited some surprise .1 !!!'of.teel but the applicants stated, that by the new laws for the re gulation of watermen's fares, it was determined that no packet-boat for the conveyance of passengers from London to Gravesend should be entitled to demand more than fld; ,cao . passenger. They considered, that whether the rdoa'il by wl':'l.;ti :hit; tetp,t q n;.ytd was propelled by oars, by wind, or by et t am; ri4!?e , no difie,renFe, incithat a steam-boat was a packet-boat strictly watliin fhi !.reanhig of the act, and, fortunately for the public, subject t =tare gulationa. Their complaint was not against the fare as exorbitant, provided that a proper degree of speed was used, and that the company dealt fairly with the public and the gf Gravesend. But no sooner had the company driven the c't ctit pf the market, than they began to slacken their passe. The ap"plintl complained that a bad steam-boat was supplied to the place, and iliai fl±ey tied been nearly six hours in coming to town by it. They Ina consulted the rulers of the Waterman's Company on the subject, and they were clearly of opinion that the stoam heata earne within the act. The Lti.in MA 76:g granted a summons to the parties for the purpose of tryi ng th e questiM-:. Yeelerday was ap pointed as the day, but further time was re4uatAd ; end it was intimated that the parties wished to appear by Counsel : further time was therefore granted. It may be observed, as an instance of the increased ra- Lidi of communication, that a passage o f six hour s f rom oileati xthich is now complained of as re markably dilatory, wai, tf4ttit years ago, considered unnsually rapid. d.

GUILDHALL.—THE BEADLE OF THE PAgtsii.-Ort Tuesday a Mr. George John Jackson applied for a sum reion.'s against Snow, the beadle of St. Paul's, for ill-treat'- ing a poof., ftuit woman on Ludgate-hill. A summons was granted, and the cage axed to be heard yesterday. Bridget Ryan' in complaint stated, that on Tuesday, abotit twelve o'clock at noon, she was steigtg her fruit on LudOte-bilt, when the beadle, Snow, came up', awl, with out more to do, rted her repeatedly in the side with his stick, from which she is no* rill black and blue; and, not contented with that, he kicked at het bucket and upset it, by which all her fruit was tumbled into the ketinel, spoiled with mud, trod under foot by passengers, and crushed with carriage *heals, Being plums, they were rendered useless, and out of two sisfel of fruit, for which she had paid Ba., she had not realised one sivence. The loss had left her helpless, as she had lost her stock, and had not the means to i'efils4:e it: Mr. Jackson cerreborafed the testimony of Bridget, as far as the assault went. Snow in defence, said that he thought the gentleman interfered; d a r:particularnd if h friend o had not te encouraged lrisli , or h e the woman, wh u have o was nothing but an Irish vagrant, she had gone away quiet erWugh ; hilt as coon as Mr. Jackson took her part she became ineufferebly abusive. A person from the cro,rd in the room called out that snow had been taken before the Vestry on two similar charges, about four months ago, and the s'estry had, after a strict investigation, exonerated him of cruelty, and rather commended his conduct. Alderman AINSLIE said that it was difficult to decide among the parties on the question. He, however, recom mended Snoic to retire and compromise the matter by giving the woman some compensation for her fruit. They did retire, but Mr. jackgon coon returned, and stated that Snow had refused to give any cottipeueation. The ALDERMAN told Mr. Jackson in that case he might complain in the proper quarter. Mr. Jackson was not willing to proceed farther. So thus the matter ended, leaving the woman to seek her remedy. MARLBOROUGII , STREET.—Thoinaa Higgins, a fishmonger, who has resided for many years in Walker's court, Barwick-street, St. James's, carrying on that busi ness, and who has been in custody for above a fortnight upon a charge of maliciously stabbing with intent to kill or maim a man named Killdillon, one of the inspectors of St. James's parish, was yesterday brought before Mr. ROE, the sitting Magistrate, for final examination. Win. Killdillon, who had hitherto been confined at St, George's Hospital since the wound was inflicted on him, and the nature of which rendered him unable id attend and give his evidence, now appeared with his head bound tap, and being sworn, deposed that he is one of the inspectors of nuisances for the parish of St. James, and in that capacity has had occasion two or three times to caution the prisoner, whom he has only known about six months, against placing his fish and other things, as he had been accustomed to do, on the foot-pavement in front of his shop in Walker's court. On Friday, the let inst., deponent was informed that the prisoner had that morning uttered some very vio lent threats against him, and had expressed a determination to take away his life; and hearing that the prisoner was then at a public-house called the Black Lion, in Berwick , street, the deponent went to that house about one o'clock in the afternoon, accompanied by Williams, a street-keeper, and there, in a back parlour, he saw the prisoner, and asked him if he was the man who had said that he would take away his (deponent's) life; and the prisoner replied that he was, and that by the Almighty God he would never rest until he did take his life. Deponent then quitted the Black Lion, and walked as far as the end of Walker's court, followed close behind by Williams, the street-keeper, and there deponent leaned against one of the posts in the street, and was considering what was the beet course for him to adopt towards the prisoner, and whether he had not better come to this office and procure a warrant against him; and while leaning thus, and thinking on the subject, he suddenly received a violent blow on the side of the face, and turning round on the instant, he saw the prisoner close by his side, with a knife in his hand, and which Williams the street-keeper had at the moment grasped, to prevent the prisoner repeating the blow ; deponent also seized the pri soner, and did not at first know that he was himself wound ed, until he saw the blood pouring down his person ; he then lett the prisoner secured in the hands of Williams and others, and proceeded to a neighbouring surgeon, Mr. ' Dixon, to have his wound dressed, which being done, he was removed to St. George's Hospital, where he has been confined ever since. John Williams, the street-keeper, deposed that lie accom panied the complainant to the Black Lion on the Ist inst. Deponent afterw►wards walked with the complainant as far as the end of Walker's -court, where the latter stood for a moment against a post, as if thinking on something, when suddenly deponent observed the prisoner running towards the complainant with a large knife in his hand, and on seeing him, deponent called oat Oh Lord, here he comes with a knife," and almost on the same instant he saw the prisoner strike the complainant on the side of the face with the knife. Samuel Lindley, a shopkeeper in the neighbourhood of Walker's-court, said to the prisoner, " I am afraid, Hig gins, you have done it at last ;" and the prisoner re plied, " I hope I have. Do yon think I have killed the Orange rascal—the Irish Orange —?" De ponent answered, " I do not know, but I fear you have done too much. Mr. ROE inquired if the knife with which the wound was inflicted was forthcoming? One of the constables said that it was not : the knife was one which the prisoner had snatched up from a butcher's block in the street ; and the butcher, who had since got it back, refused to part with it. The prisoner, a short thick-set man, about 60 years of age , w as then fully committed to Newgate for trial on the capital charge under Lord Ellenborough's Act, and the witnesses bound over to prosecute. Both the prisoner and the prosecutor are natives of Ire land, but of different religious persuasion.. QUEEN - SQUARE. —Yesterday Byers, the informer, attended by his witness (Rawlins), appeared before Mr. Maartiorr, to sopport a new species of information against HATTON-GARVEP. , - . . , Yesterday James Harris, known by the title of Long iets, surd the same individual who about two years since was senteneeif lo.cienth for robbing Lord Cowper's steward, but being subsequently forrod to be innocent of the crime laid to his charge, was reprinted and see tit :il..4.erty, and a man named John Pellier, who ctafed himself to be a ethrrter and glazier, residing in the neigh bourhood of Somers-toe t?, , were placed at the bar of this office, before Messrs. ROOERS arAi Ss . ,mox, charged upon suspicion with being concerned in the Mewing burglary and robbery:— Late on Tuesday night, or early on Wednesday neterni.ng the !eternises of a Mr. Samuel Scanlan, a tailor, No. el, Charlkn-streeti SOWN-town, were broken into and robbed of cloths, kersepiee, &c,, to the amount of 160/. The premises were first sliseortted to have been plundered by the watchman on the beat about O'rie efekock on Wednesday morning, and he instantly reported fhe circumstance to Teasdale, the watch-house-keeper, who went to make in- Caliries ; but being unable to effect any information, he fochei rrp the shop, and took his departure. In the morn ing, Mr, Stns an, whose dwelling-house is in the neigh bourhood of the Perm's-park, arrived and learned the loss he had sustained. Tettcsltile had in the meantime ascer tained that the prisoner Harris drove a coach very near the prosecutor's house, about half-past ten o'clock on Tuesday night, and that he was subsequently seen mlking in the Polygon with two men, whose appearance and manner were calculated to create suspicion. Harris (lid not deny being in the place alluded to with a coach at the time described, but did not consider it a matter of great suspicion for a coachman to drive his coach to any particular spot, and alight and talk to a friend or two. The other prisoner also treated the matter very lightly. Mr. Roeaas, boweves, thought it right to remand them both to a future day. L AMBETH-STREET...--PA RENTAL Yesterday two young girls, one about 17 and the other 20, were sabered into the office, accompanied by several respectable-looking persons, at whose instance, it appeared, they came to make the complaint. Both were in floods of teats, and OR being asked by Mr. Wyarr what it was that requited the magisterial interference, a decent-looking man came forward and said that it was for the protection of the lan' against the cruelty and ill-treatment of their father. He had almost starved them, and whenever they asked for food, he beat them mast severely. The Rev. Mr. MATHIAS asked was this the fact ? The Person—lndeed it is Sir. The neighbours have pitied the unfortunate young women, and seeing the brutal ill usa g e with which they have been treated, have now come f or wa r d to try and Flare them. Mr. Mantras—Was there not a complaint made before on this subject ? The Person—There was, Sir ; hut his cruelty towards his children has not abated, and he now treats them in the roost barbarous manner. If they ask for a bit of bread, he beats them, and so cruelly that at the paeoent moment both their arms and legs are bruised and discoloured, Mr. MATH think I know the fellow. This is not the first complaint against him.—Tlic Person : It is not, Sir. Mr. MAxmAs—Then a warrant shall be issued against him. Tl:e father here entered the office, and said—l am told my daughters are here to make a complaint against me. I am ready to meet it. Igr: Wit Arr, to the younger girl—How old are you?— Girl : Eighteen, Sir ; and my mother has been dead for some time. Mc. Wa-arr—Were you beaten and starved ?—The I'ersen : She was both the one and the other, that I'll swear to. MATHIAS-This unnatural parent is a purser in the naiy, I understand," and has It3l. a quarter. If he does not chatege his conduct, I will apply to the Admiralty. The Father—Dodt, Sir, they arc light girls, and keep bad company. The Person—lt is a lie ; they arc well conducted girls ; but they have a had father. The MaGisradm.---.We believe him so, and for the as sault swtan to we convict biro in the penalty of Ili., and in defatit of payment to remaid !pr three months in the House of Correction. The daughter—Oh don't, your Woet,2lin, for God's, sake do not. He is our father, and we are to for get and forgive all, do not, do not, good gentleroes2t ' , end him to prison. At an after period of the evening we believe he was libe rated, on paying the fine. THAMES-OFFICE.—Mary Ann Morley, a decent. looking woman, was yesterday brought before Mr. BAL LANTINE, charged with a robbery. She occasionally engaged in the house of Mr. John Mor gan Thomas, Shadwell, as charwoman. lion-ever, upon the occasion of her latest visite, a variety of property wax missed, and a brother of Mr. Thomas was placed in a hogshead to keep an eye upon her movements en Wednes day, when again employed in the house. During that day this witness observed her (when no poison to all appear ance in her imagination had any view of her actions) ap proach the money-till and abstract some silver, which she pocketed. She also, in a similar manner, disposed of several small parcels of sugar. She was immediately pounced upon, and fainted away. The:woman wept bitterly, and piteously implor e d m er cy, as she had four helpless young children entirely dependent upon her for support. She said it was her first offence. Mr. BALLANTINE was afraid not. The prisoner again repeated it was but her first offence ; and begged Mr. Thomas, dropping upon her knees, to have pity upon her little children. Mr. Thomas, upon this appeal, appeared affected, and said, " I will not prosecute, Mr. Ballantine ; I would rather not. Let her go : she has these helpless children, who will be thrown upon the world : give her an admonition, and in God's name let her go." Mr. BALLANTINE-1 cannot do it, Sir; I have no power to do such a thing. Mr. Thomas--In mercy to her children. Mr. BALLANTINE-That I cannot help ; it cannot weigh with me. If my. OWN brother were there, I must a ied would commit him, if the accusation were made o ut. I would rather not commit this woman, indeed svetild soonei pay the money myself, but I have no alternative left to me. The woman was then committed to N TOWN- HALL.—We stated the case about . a wee fo k un i d ne b e l , of an intelligent child of 12 years of a g e bn u f's, between ; Wilkinson, the watch-house-keeper of St..Saivnio St. Saviour's twelve and one at night, s l ee ping on a hulk away church-yard, who confessed to having . run . trim h„ r fl ose of gratifying an irre parents in Belfast, for the r sistible desire to see London, after helping himself to three notes on the Belfast bank of the value of 3/. 10s., as pro vision for his journey; and of his being placed by order of the Magistrate under the special care of the keeper of tin Borough Compeer, till his father could be male acquainted etvgate. 6. with his situation. This morning a letter was received b‘ Mr. Newman, the chief clerk, from Mr. Patrick O'Neal the father, conveying his most grateful acknowledgment, for the information afforded him from the office, as well a , through the medium of the Times, and fer his child's and twenty-horse power, mid that the number o engines in these cities exceed a hundred, whilst there arc only twenty in operation here, and those only in activity for a part (7f the year, it may be easily seen that Lille sinks sadly in the com parison 03 to quantity of manufacturing cm quality of the work marked 'Phis is mani s fbPe ! s : t t 'v e arn , feelir w o° h rrig: i le cl7 lti°.llll a lei r etir e illg i c i l o ion t :fhes o ri : )irni t t h y e . a manulactlrrect same fineness a 3 English cloths of the present day, nor, indeed, are they equal to those which w ere manufactured in France some Tears ago. Whc ther it be from superiority of English machinery, or from whatever other cause it may proceed, it is certain, even on the admission of the French manufacturers themselves, that they do not reach that extreme fineness of thread in the spinning of the cotton which has been attained in Eng land. For the last two or three years, this branch of business has rather declined than /advanced at ille. f t tlLoi wns o t o f C B b o e e m lg r i l u e la n a i i r:d t : t hweohfislpsli:anin:iitn spinning Ghent .and telifac tories of cotton manufacture have been of ia..`c in constant activity and growing - prosperity. The manufacture of thread or Nottingham lace of late years bas been extensively established here ; and Lille has obtained throughout France an eminent celebrity in this article. Without groper inquiry into the cause of this celebrity, one may be disposed to believe that it was merited, and ought to be attributed to the cre ditable industry of the inhabitants. But it is no such thing ; and I have been assured that more than half of the lace which is sold as the manu facture of Lille is of English workmanship. in deed, this remark equally extends to the lace manufactured at Lille and the larger quantity that is smuggled into it, for all the proprietors VI machines for making lace are exclusively Eng lishmen. In some instances (but rarely) they employ French workmen, who are far less expert in working the machines, who receive consider ably less wages, and who arc kept in igno rance as to the mode of regulating the machine:,: should they get out of order. These ouvrie7s arc merely made acquainted with so much knowledge of the business as enables them to keep the machine in action. Their masters were originally working mechanics ; but by habits of industry, and by the grst large demands for ;.4 new manufacture which 6( introduced to th Lney in, country, they have raised themselves into consi derable capitalists. Their elevation by means successful industry is unquestionably•creditabie to them ; but it. cannot, I believe, be denied that that elevation is greatly sustained by snnitir- ' - filing.

There is a theatre here of commodious size ; but the attendance and the performances arc in different ; there is also a public library, which possesses some curious works, specimens of early printing, but it is deficient in works of modern literature. ' l.le II churches merit no par ticular mention for architectural beauty. A large room in the College of the town is devoted to a Picture Gallery, which is retrieved frain insipidity by a splendid painting by Rubens, and a wild rocky landscape, of Salvator Rosa, in his happiest style. Wheat, which has been partially injured by being carried in a moist state, may be in a great measure restored by judicious kiln 'drying.
