RADICAL REFORM. FOURTH DIALOGUE. Dicx—Frank, my lad, thou wert praising the equality of the law, yesterday. I like just as wt.!' ti.• thou Most, that no man should have the power of wronging me. FRANK—And that thyself should not have the power of wronging any man. Dost thou like that too, Dick ? cx—Wliy—to be sure—l can't well say that 1 (twist. lInDGE—Else it would come to the mob law, nt who be the strongest ; which Frank sheaved me t'oth , r day was the worst law in the world. Faatm—And 88 Dick can't say for certain that he be the strongest, it may be 'best for him that nobody should be stronger than the law. DlCK—Bile--equality of possessions, Frank ! It Sounds so rarely in my ears that nobody should be richer than myself. FRANK—lndustry and good fortune have done that for honest men before now. Dtcx—Aye—but it took half their lives up, %%lilt more trouble than It was worth. HODGE—Not more trouble than the Radicals tAke, and much less danger. DICK—I never heard that the French Radicals had any vast trouble in getting rich. FRANK—Not much, truly : for almost every French Radical - had his head knocked off before he had made his fortune. HoncE-:--Just as it will happen 'with the Einz lish Radical', if they kick up a Revolution. Sf 'tile of the sly fellows behind the curtain will-seod Dick and the likes of him to the gallows, after he ha. done the job for their profit. Dtcy..---Sly fellows behind the cut-lain t." - I never heard of such at any of our meetings. FRANK— be sworn thou didst not. Gristlentcl , . Dirk, as surroittided Doe; or iti- '• a: the Spar,ekf- eting, in sailors' owl d lic to s'di.:.l. rids. DICK—i .voof.ier 15. 1 )at the Gentlemin waisted Ciicre in such x (lit:vise FRANK-0;1k tt. , 41!, the Doetqr him , elf owned it was—to take the le Irl and t,h4,file him ha - if the Alevin g bald shec e edd ; and leave him to stand th e h,zf l ud when it failed. HODGE—H azard, with a venoance, truly-- whet► they offered hint no assistance in the Tower, and left him to stand trial for his life. DICK--. 11 promise thee, no, gentleman among them all shall serve me, such a trick. Htess • your heart, it is dean contrary to Radicalism to al!ow of any Gentlemen. FRANK—That I believe:—or of any honeit men either. But as thou art so fond of egtialiq of possessions-- Dicx—To be sure I-am. Did not I tell thee I avoid have as flinch property aw any other. Mall ill the Kingdom ?—to the Pepublic, I mean. Fit A NK—Thott wilt be kind eoongh to tell me, whether that is to he don't': by miikiog thyself rich as e‘try other man, or eveq other man as poor al% thy.eif ? * • UnDG2—That be the difTeretice between teeth: iirg up and !exciting down. - . FR A N (id a main.ditrerence it is. The o►►e way is safe and honest; the other is roguisira►►d eiangerous. The one way bt lugs inaividnal pro sperity ; the other, general ruin. DICK—Why, Frank, I can't help fanryinz the first teuy the best, unless other folks being phor can make me rich. FRANK—Making you rich can't be the general obi , •ct of the Itadiceis, can it ? ilouGE-1 never heard so simple a question in my born days. FitANK—Truly, unless Dick comes to be a second Emperor 1 - I , iney, be has small chance of getting rich by a rievolation. dr( —And that can be Only •ne man's hick, for certain. But if the land and money were all eq'sally► divi:led, I should be eatibficd with my fair share. Ilonua—That's what I should not ; if yna would not work for me and others as you do poky. FRANK—There', less danger of his refusing work, thus of his finding no work to retuse. DICK—Why shoulff I find no work There will be as lliiiCh property then in the country as there is now. FKANK—Just the satne. But the good of pro perty depends on the power of using it. A thou sand men with four acres a piece cannot give as much employment. or circulate as touch money, as one nian can with four thousand acres. lIODGR—Nay, now, Frank ; 'hot( wouldet tin( Icare the thousand men withant honse ne land ? FBA , K-I-Nr, truly. But I world have. the to upon the land of the one man, who sho , ild find them in protection and employment. Dxcx—And how could be do that FRANK--By having a property large enough to fin , i 'lotus in both. DicK-1 don't see but they could find work for thr►r own selves. flonGit—Every men big own job on Li± ovi•ft ground. I should .like that mainly Fronk, I iontcss. FtiANK-Aye, every man to build bis nwri plant Leis own trees, raise his own walk, trim bis 0570 teiices, ctst his own ditches. DicK—Stop, stop, lad ! thou bast named more Work than I could get through in twenty yea's, or than my four acres would, have room for do ing in. fIoDGEt---At that rate, then, ck s equal di of land would cut up all the %yolk the coi,otry. FRANK—Thou sera a part of thy way, Hotlae, tolerably welt ; Lot I'll slew 'thee a little farther bef,,re we part. This equal cliviiion would keg) every man to the work of his own place, anti not I3ave it well done either. DICK—I dare say it might. nu"Nr.---By your own argument, Dick, we ithould have no fine buildings, nor inl:tovententt, ;you the land; because there would be tn.i'he , loom (or them nor means. Be so good to (ell me, whet* would 'be the gattleus, anti We hot-houses, We received yesterday the Paris Papers of Wed nesday and Thursday last. Those of Friday which were doe this morning have not art ived. The K 'NG on IVednesday held a Council, vhich was attended by all the Minister. said, however, that Marshal GOUVION ST. Cvlt his given in his resignation, and that he is to be succeeded by General Ricaao. ,The announcement of the arrival at Paris of the Princess of WALES appears to be altogether unfounded, and it is now.stated, that her 'Royal flightless did 'tibt intend to pass through that capital. It has been already stated that representations had been made by some of the Authorities at Ber lin; which had for their object to induce the Prus sian Monarch to suspend the operation of the Carlsbad Resolutions, as sanctioned by the Diet, within lilt territories ; it is now said that a Me morial to the same effect had been drawn up by the Minister of State, Dc HUMBOLDT, end that the KING had SQ far yielded as to direct the latter doctinient to be communica!ed to the Court of Vienna, probably to form one of the subjects of discussion at the conferences in that capital, which it is again said will be attended by the Emperor of Russia, as well as several of the German So vereigns. Shottid success attend the endeavours making in Prussia to destroy the effect of the Carlsbad System. so far as relates to that King follows of con! se that it cannot be ope— rative any otLer quarter. It should, however, be observed, that every wheta in Germany there has appeared an eagerness on the part of the Governments to give effect to that part of the system which relates to the public press. The account; from Madrid state the melan choly fact, that at the end of the last month there were upwards of 8,000 sick at Cadiz. .The deaths on the 30(11 nit. were 74, 'and on the Ist inst. 83.

'We feel no small degree of pleasure in stating that the Kee!men are again all in'employment on the Tyne. We hope that t all who have been se duced from the paths of industry by Radical Rebels will follow their example. 'The removal of Earl FITZWILLIAM, as we predict ed, has raised a elamottr•irr•the Opposition Prints, and seems to operate unfavourably even upon those %which are , attached.to Government: . We respect 1411 rank and the proper influence of wealth as much as any Persons can do, bitt we cannot avoid condemning those who do not employ them actively in defence Of the State, when its very existence is 'threatened by Rebels who stile themselves I:tformers. The (Old) Times says this day, in reference to the tcmoval of Earl FITZWTLLIAM, "do Mhiitters affect to dread the friend of 13t.fame ?" but, : we may say in answer,. would liv ?IKE have remained the friend a NobleulaPp Who in these times, when all distinction of ranks are in danger of being annihilated, and property to become the prey of furious Democracy, gave the support of his countenance and presence to a Radical Meeting? , We know that Mr. BVIIKE at once discarded CHARLES Fox, the man who be said " was born to be loved," and never would re.-unite with him, or 'with any who admired the revolutionary principles which rendered France the . scene of the most horrible carnage, and, finally, of the most tyrannous Des potism that ever enslaved a Country.— . --Mr. 11;tiItta, then, we doubt not, would have acted by Earl FITZWILLIAM, after that Nobleman's tip- . pest-lance at the Yorkshire Radical Meeting, as he did .by My. Fox, and perhaps might have re corded 'his opinions ()Chi's Lordship's conduct in that respeCt as he did' of Mr. Fox and the lute Duke of Benroan. . There never was a more complete illustration of the old.saying, " When rogues fall out, ho nest men come at the irtith,"„than is to, be found in the Letters from the Radical Reformers,' HUNT, THIsTLEWOOD, BLANDPORD, and WATsots, which we have inserted in our Paper this day. 7 --We Should not load our columns with such trash, if it were not to let the Lower Orders of the Com munity see what wretches offer themselves as the Champions of Liberty slid the Reformers of the Constitution. 'These Fellows have now betrayed themselves, and it is impossible we•shonld con ceive that their deluded followers will•fisllowThem any longer.--Judg,ing from. 'I'HISTLRWOOD ' s Let ter, it•shottld seem as if, by simultaneous Meetings all over the Conotry, that his object was 'Universal Insurrection, a'nd that he wanted to - reach that " pinnacle" of popularity which he professes that he assisted AUNT to attain.—On the Other hand, it appears that Howr begins to be afraid. that con- sequences-" may- arise which may tend 10 itiVOIVe himself in 'danger, and though he uses blustering language, and, is vehement in his abuse of Govern ment, these may he considered as artifices to cover his timidity; for that, however heroic he may be in scurrilous attacks upon absent characters is known to be a paramount quality in his nature.—But the worst charge against HUNT appears in BLANDFoRD•s Letter. tioNr, it seems, had possessed himself of a great portion of the Penny Subscriptions, which welt stated as likely to amount to a Quarter of a Million ; but whe❑ applied to by BLANDFORD for the small sum of 4/. lOs. 6d., after several promises and much shu f fling, be had, at lengths, gave a check on a Banker for Five 1 Pounds, drawn by PRARSON.—PRARSON, it seems, had promised to supply whatever might be de ficient in the Penny Subscriptions, on defraying necessary expenses ; hot when reminded of his promise, he declined paying more than the draft for five pounds given to HUNT, who had no money of his own. But the amount and appro priation of the penny subscriptions are known only to the Collectors, and who, no doubt, made " a, good penny," as the phrase is, out of them. These , then, are the men who have raised such a toW ig in the Country, which threatened us with all the horrors of Rebellion. But they have now 50 effectually exposed themselves, that e trust their artifices will no longer avail: frewever, theie are paiSages in HUNT'S and TuismEivbon's Letters of so libellous a description, that we hope they will not escape the attention of ti►e ATToR!
