Political anarchy, therefore, is the ready and fast-growing fruit of religious infidelity; and it is quite Ovarian:, that it is the sole and settled purpose of these " architects of Ruin," (to use the strongfigurative language Of Mr. Butke),.who have lately poured out upon the cOuntly their swarms of blasphemous pamphlets, and still continue, with an indnstry that never flags, to give them wings of circulation—it is quite clear to us, that their sole and settled purpose is to tear up, under the colour of 0 Constitutional Reform, the rery stamina of our esta blihments both in Church and State—to infuse their poi sonous juices, into the issues of life—to subvert without alarritig4—aud to hide their exterminating weapon until the .scrtson, which they. eagerly look for, should arrive, when they may apply it with a full, unfettered elfact. In regard t o the putrid and loathsome masses of blasphemy adverted to, 'We have seen them in the fulness of their deformity ; and knbwing the malignity of their operation, and aPpre lonsi ye also . nf the fatal result which may ensue, We earnestly an,l anxiously exhort every upright Citizen, and every since' e Christian, to resist, su far as in him lies, these plunges of me ditated convulsion—to dam up the outlets of treasonable dis affection, and to discountenace, with all his heartould soul, and strength, the Stygian doctrines blown abroad in every di rection by the ‘ foul Spirits of turbulence, democracy, rebellion, and impiety—and so, under the Providence of Heaven, shall the ark which holds the Constitution of his Country be best pre served from the ruinous innovations of the Demagogue,' and his ILly Faith remain untainted by the envenomed breath of him '• who sitteth in the seat of the Scorner."

A CONSTANT READER. SaCTIMARK 111RETING.---Sir ROBERT IVILSON Laving arrived in town, the following letter was son, yesterday morning. to Mr. GILLES, the Chair- Alan of a Committee, by the High Bailiff of the Borough : " Town Hall, Sept. 9, 1819. Sin -4 hare bad the honour of receiving your letter of .•' t. tvr , lav's date, rL questing inforination whether next Tues '_AaY will be convenient for we to receive the Gentlemen form- Zg Committee, to hold a Public. Meeting in this Borough, diseu3s certain •d'• • which have taken place at ant proctit 4.o.ari e h es „ Ler. In reply to which, I beg leave to say, that I shall hold Y s t'lf ready to receive the deputation on that day. " I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " J. PIUNSEP, Bailiff. jOYINT GILLES, Es q. Chairman?' , We find t ha t some more meet i ngs of the disaf teeted are intended to be held. Speaking of such Proceedings, the noted Cobbet t, than whom no man r er urore thoroughly understood the real views artcl objects Of our modern Reformers, once e!'ergetically said ;—" it this malady i§ not stop trd ooce, by the help of an hempen necklace, or %home other remedy equally efficacious, it never tails to break out into Atheism, Robbery, Swind ling, Jocohinism, Massacres, Civic Feasts, and In auncetions"— (Vide Porcupine's Works, Volume pfiges 8 and 9)—Such was the language of Cobbett, in his best days, and nearly similar to it 'es also that of our present time-serving Prints, until they fancied, from the progress of disaffec tion, that loyalty wonld no longer prove the pro• *table pursuit. The present public meetings have Obri ~,, sly no other intent or effect than that of inflaming the mi n d s o f the multitude, and seducing them Irom honest industrious habit& to those of Idleness and political crime.—(Leedslndependent ) Our Co rrespondent at Alcester informs that the Pansice REGENT arrived at Ragicy Hall, on da Sonday Nveek, lie takes an airing, almost every 41his car r i age ; and, last week, twice visited (I'ster•—On Sunday afternoon, his Royal High attended Divine Service 4t Alcester Church. e service was performed by i the Rector, Orel F.

This morning iie embarked onboard the Superb, Commodore eyl;. THOMAS HARDY, under a salute, and immediateq got under weigh, accompanied by the Vengenr,, Captain MAITLAND, and the Hyperion, Captain SEARLE. The latter ship is to make the best of her way to Madeira, for the purpose of taking in a supply of wine for the whole of this Squadron, whose destina , tion and object are involved in mys tery. Sir Tnom.ts HARDY, it is stated, sails with sealed orders, which are not to be opened till he reaches a certain latitude. Each ship is in fine lighting trim, being put upon, the full. War Esta blishment, both as to seamen and marines, with an extra supply of stores. 'phis, at a period of, profound Peace, bespeaks not only a long and active service, but a distant station. The Dutch brig of war Gier sailed yesterday, and a British frigate from the Eastward, said to be the Spartan, came to an anchor this afternoon in the Sound, having first saluted the AdMiral's flag. The PRINCE REGENT, it is rumoured, is to embark at Brighton on the 12th, when it is confidently said that he will visit this port.—Fnrtber particu lars to-morrow. DIMINUTION OF CRIME IN THE METROPOLIS At the-ensuing Old Bailey Sessions there are 316 prisoners for' trio!, .which is less by 161 than there were at the corresponding Sessions of last year, and 83 less than there ►►ere at the same period in the year 1817. It is said that a town meeting will take place at Birmingham, in the course of the ensuing week, on the subject of the late events at Manchester, and that Sir FRANCIS BURDSTT, Sir C. WOLSELY, and Mdjur CARTWRIGHT, are expected to be present. There is an Englishman now resident at the vil lage of Radam on the Nile, a considerable distance from Cairo, who has engaged in a concern with the Pacha for the purpose of refining Egyptien sugar, and distilling rum from the molasses ob tained. A recent traveller asserts that he has com pletely succeeded ; that the sugar is equal to any loaf sugar we ste in Eurape ; and the rum so ex cellent, that all the great Turks are forgetting the sober and salutaty precepts of the Koran. Nothing calls forth so much astonishment from strangers who visit this city, as the number of our new buildings. Edinburgh, within these 30 years, scents doubled its size, and still other streets are forming in every direction, ground is fencing out its almost every road leading from the city, tool no abatement,of this spirit yet appears. While we complain of a stagnation in business, of an excess of hands in every business, of a superabundant population, and aasecessity for encouraging emi gration, we still observe a rapid increase in the number of houses, and an increase of splendour in the way of living in every class. These are problems which might afford useful employment to some of those comprehensive minds which are so kindy devoted to the public service, which pre tend to know every thing, and to foresee every thing, but are satisfied with' nothing.—(Edin burgh Paper.) The neighbourhood of Kensington has hitherto been the refuge of the moat dexterous and auda cious villains in the Metropolis. Burglaries with in the last few weeks have been committed to an alarming extent, and with impunity; and on Thursday night only, some of this daring gang tore up the pump opposite the White Lion public house, and cartied it away, leaving the greater part of the neighbourhood, who depended sole ly on the same for water, in the greatest want, in consequence of the loss of this temple of convenience.—Yesterday morning some daring villains broke into the premises of Mr. Stoddart, coach-maker, of South Audley-street, Grosve nor-square, and stole a quantity of glasses from several carriages, chariots, and landaus, with which they made their escape. Monday a dreadful whirlwind passed over Hut ton Cranswick. taking a ditection between Drif field and ‘Vansford ; at Hutton CrauSwick it blew down one barn and two stables ; and in its pro gress from thence it swept away corn in the stook as clean as if it had beets led off the ground ; a pike of hay was completely taken up into the air; 'the road between Driffield and Vl'ansford, over which the wind heti 'sassed, was rendered impass ' able by the branches and trunks of trees, which had been broken off or torn up. A poor man, of the name of Reastott, who had taken shelter froM the rails under a stook of corn, was surprised by the wind taking it instantaneously into the air, to his no small terror.'—(lfell Aduertiser.) Last Sunday the following ludicrous circum stance occurred :—A Clergyman, not far from the town of B--, in this county, on ascending the pulpit, discovered that he had unfortunately lost his sermon ; when, after apologizing for the ac cident, he dismissed the congregation ; but on his descending from the pulpit, he rejoiced with ex ceeding great joy, that be had found the lost sheep, and sent his clerk out into the highways to bring back his flock, which was accomplished in a sew minutes, and the service was resumed, and concluded to the great comfort and edification of all parties.—(Bath Herald.) Last Sunday, a gentleman on the Union coach having stopped at Buckden to take some refresh ment, a double-barrelled fossling-piece which he held between his legs, by some accident happened to slip from his hand, when it instantly went off, and the charge lodging in the back parts of his leg and thigh, they were so lacerated, that atnpu, tation was rendered indispensable, which the pa tient, next day underwent with the greatest forti tude; and, we understand is going on well,— (Cambridge Chronicle.)

THE THEATRE.—II is a reproach to the'public taste, that so excellent a Comedy as The Provoked Husband, with.so prominent a list of Performers, should have been represented last night at Covent garden Theatre before a scanty .audience.--- , Mr. C. KRMBLE, for the first time, we believe, assum ed the part of Lord Townly, and he acquitted him self so well, as not only to satisfy the rigour of cri ticism, but strongly to interest the general feelings. He was easy, gentlemanly, and interesting in the earlier scenes, but peculiarly impressive in the last. He received vet) , warm tokens of approha lion. Lady Townly found a very spirited repre sentative in MrS. DAVISON. ABBOTT'S Manly was very respectable, and BLANCH AHD'S Sir Francis very eniertaining. So was LISTON'S Squire Richard, and Mt s. GIBBS'S Miss Jenny. The after. piece was The Barber of Seville, and the Theatre has evi dently obtained a very great acquisition in Miss 'nue, who performed the part at Rosina. She is a singer of a very high order, and when she. has wholly divested herself of the timidity usual with noviciates when they are brought to the severe ordeal of a London audience, she will, we are persuaded, manifest very great musical powers.— But, though young, shire is not a novice, as she has acquired a considerable degree of pro• sincial reputation. Her figure and features are very pleasing. Her manner is easy, unaffect ed, and interesting, and she bi r ds fair to become very conspicuous among the popular favourites of the day,h--The audience received her as a very promising candidate for their favour, and we have no doubt that her reputation Will speedily be established. ,Mr. YOUNG is now performing at Norwich. The Mayor of that city has, it seems, invited him to sojourn at his own house bring the en gagement. This, as The Norwich Mercury pro perly obsrrve , ,, is "an honourable testimony of resp.ect for talents."

They were now, of course, obliged to have resort to correspondence, but, alas ! how was this to be carried on ? Idl pod/ Mary could not write, but it was not long before she received a letter from William, wherein lie de clared the increased ardour of his love, anti hn. plated her to marry. She was now compelled' to have recourse to a confidential female friend to assist her in reading the letter, and who readily offered to write an answer; but no, Mary could not even to her friend impart the main secret, and declined the proffered service; yet as true love is seldom at a loss for the means of invention, Mary adopted the following concise Method procured a sheet-of writing paper, with the end of a burnt stick from off the hearth, she formed the little top 1, and enclosed a small piece of sheep's wool, which comprised Mary's significant answer, " I Wool ."
