and earnestly reeotottend the bewls of familiel t caution t 1 it servants, apprentices, and children, against assembling in the streets from idle curiosity, as it is impossible to distin guish in a crowd the innocent from the guilty. And keepers of taverns and public-houses are required to shut up the same by eight o'clock at night, whilst the peace of the town is threatened.—Oct. (19, 1616.1' These new Legislators ton, the Itamiiden Club, forsooth, have issued their Proclamation condemn ing their Subjects for rioting. The time is not ripe, :and these worthless demagogues, whose every speech and act goes to inflame the ignorant populace, and induce them to be guilty of out rage, no sooner see their misguided adherents Committed against the laws of their country than they' sneak out of the scrape, and ad vise Mtn they have stirred up to violence to he peaceailia—..tell them they arc starving, but ought to rest satisfled.—oppressed by corrupt Rulers, but should be content—ground down by unnecessary taxes to support lavish expenditure, but ought to be meek and humble—they are Britons and Lave a spirit to. avenge their wrongs, hut they ought to petition like timid Slaves. Oh ! these are your pure, honest, well-meaning Reformists, who would not for the world excite a feeling of discontent and consequent insubordination among the people. 'They are the very datuny's of Public Ilectings— " O itinsters ! If sr• were disposed to stir " Your hearts sod minds to tuatiny and rage *a We should do—wrong. • • • • • • • s• Will you be patieut ?

The Instigators of mischief and snurder, and the mean skulking cowards who save themselves, and leave their deluded instru ments to their dreadful reckoning with the laws they have offended. The Paris Papers of the 211th ult. are remark able for misrepresentations respectiAg the Barbary Powers, even more miserably rancorous and mean spirited than any that have before disgraced then►. The Algerines are more piratical than ever ! they commit greater depredations !..-but them is a charming understanding between them and France: the French are in all the secrets of their murders and robberies, and the Fiench flag alone ii, shameless pre-eminence! respected by these Buc• cancers. The Emperor of MOROCCO is mentioned as another worthy Ally of these Plunderers, and the politic Day as very circumspectly telling his Cruizers not to return into port with their prizes, to draw down vengeance upon him, till he is ready for another bombardment ! ! We are really surprized that even French Editors are not ashamed of these wretched inventions. In a like spirit we have an Article from the upright City of Ghent, only they are smugglers and not pirates who here find their parts taken against the domineering English, who punish both Smugglers and Pirates in their very strong holds ! Well ! The sympathy and fellow feeling of the French with these respectable classes is truly wonderful. BLIONY'S old friends cannot forget their nature or habits. Thieves they were born, and Assassins they were bred, and the dear col leagues of Banditti and Murderers they will be till the day of their death. All hail! Frenchmen and Pirates Smugglers and Frenchmen all hail! The Dutch Papers received this morning state, that the Allied Contingents of the Army of Occu ration are now completing in France, and taking III) their quarters for the AVinter.

Yesterday the Fourth Annual Meeting of the London Auxiliary Bible Society was held at the Egyptian Hall in the Mansion-house, and was attended by a great concourse of respectable cha racters of both sexes, and of all religious per suasions. Soon after I I o'clock, the Right [lnn. the LORD MAYOR was called to the chair, and many speeches were delivered, describing the pro gress of the institution, and recommending it to further encouragement.

ENGLISH OPERA.—Mr. A alloLD obtained a license yesterday, at Hicks's Hall, to open the Lyceum Theatre, for Dancing and Concerts, dur ing the Winter season. He was opposed - on the part of Drury-lane and Covent-garden, but in vain. Madame Saetuf - and her troop are now at Calais. She made her hrst appearance at the Theatre time o n Sunday night. The prices of the first circle of boxes were raised from three to five francs, and .ql.l,oler, parts in proportion. The House was crowded with English. The following is a t ranscript of a band . -bill wh'cb Iris been room!, withi n thi s d a y or two , thrust nr der the door of public-houses at the East end of the Town, in the mornings when the houses were (genet!. Many of the citizens have considered it in an alarming point of view ; others have deemed it the wild effusion of an enthusiast ; smd others again, ‘. a weak invention of the enemy." As it is, we give it to the public. It has been deemed expedient to send a copy of it to the Office of the Secretary of State : Barress, To Alms !—Break open fin gun and sword pawithrohere, and other likely places to find arms— No Ilse vu lireod, &c.—No Castlereagh—off with his head.

Printed hills, containing further directions, will be circulated as .il Si possible." in several parts of Germany, deliberations have been held respecting a centenarian celebration, in 1817, of the ti t eformation founded by LUTiiiilt, in a manner worthy of the subject. A Letusantie Paper states as follows :—" We have been informed that some Swiss slaves at Al girls have obtained their liberty,..and returned. to their own country, tinder circumstances which create a lively interest. At first soldiers in the second Swiss regiment, in the service of France, made prisoners by the Spaniards in 1809, thrown into Tarragona, transported to Melille, a Spanish fort on the coast of Africa, where they lang uished three years ; th e y th ence d eserte d to the Moors, who sold them several times, end, in flue, they were conducted as slaves to Algiers, where they groaned three years and a halt in the severest captivity. Such was the condition of these unfor tunate -ereatm es, when, about the end of May last, the DEY sent one of his 'inheres to Con stantinople, charged with different presents for the GRAND &SIGNOR, and among others, with 12 lions and 2 tigers. The Swiss slaves were charged, during the voyage, with the care of these animals. They embarked them at the risk of their lives, but arrived at their destination. When at Constanti nople, they were immediately reclaimed by the Imperial Ambassador. hlis intervention succeed ed ; the Swiss obtained their liberty, and were sent to Trieste, where the Swiss Consul provided them with passports, and the means necessary for their return to their country." The example of an eminent master tradesman in this town is highly praise-worthy, and, we hope, will be extensively imitated. His general complement of men is about 40, and finding it necessary, from the pressure of the times, to dis charge at least one-sixth of this number, he very wisely and hum ane ly pre f erre d re d uc i ng the whole to the employ ment o f only five days in each week, by which means more than half a dozen families are saved from indigence, and the whole are still comfortably provided for.--(Liverpool Courier.) The barracks at Sheerness are undergoing an extensive repair and additions, it is said, will be made for the accommodation of more soldiers than are at present stationed there, instead of quarter ing them four and five on each public-house. The reason assigned for this meastne is, that there are nearly one thousand convicts employed in the im provements carrying on in the Dock-yard, whence arises a necessity for a sufficient Wive to guard them.

At the General Quarter Sessions of .the Pence for the West Riding of Yorkshire, held .tit' Leeds, the discharge of the whole of the I nsolven Debt ors was opposed, on the ground that they ttad not given such notice of their intentions too-till I hem selves of the benefit of the Act as came Oiithin its meaning.
