The German Rtfotmers are chiefly into of great knowledge and learning, with a spirit determined to procure, if possible, a Representative Govern ment through the whole of the German Domi nions. It is certain, however, that they are very different from the Revolutionary Miscreants who ruined the French Monarchy, and se moderate in in their political views, that if they possessed a sixth part of that freedom which English men enjoy, they would be contented, and nut attempt to distill!) the Government. Their views are • chiefly opposed by the Nobility, but many of that order are so much enlightened, and so convinced of the danger of attempting to thwart the progress of political knowledge, and to perpetuate the restraint now suffered by the Peo• ple, that they have enib.►rked in the cause of those who are supposed to have determined to obtain a Representative Government. The conviction of a man at the Warwick As sizes, for publishing a Parody on the Litany, seems to have excited much surprise in The Bri tis4 Press, because HONE was acquitted for the same offence by a London Jury. With every feeling of respect for the conscientious motives of that Jury, we cannot but think that fIoNE had a very lucky escape, and that the Warwick Jury, though the verdict was different, viewed the case with the same conscientious purity. But Irreli gion has taken a greater and more alarMing stride, even since the acquittal of HONE ; and it be comes still more the duty of our countrymen to guard our Establishment in Church and State, lest the Empire should sink into the pipits of Atheism and Anarchy.—While we mention the name of lioNa, %se feel it to be our duty to state, that, from what we bear, he has renounced all his political errors, attends to his business, and con ducts himself as a respectable tradesman should do, with a due regard io the welfare of his tamily, and a full s,nse of the excellence of that Consti tution which knows no distinction of persons, but administeri impartial justice to the community at If we may credit the following statement re ceived yesterday, the South American Patriots have. obtained a decisive victory over the Royalists : " On the 12th of June, General Marino, with 1300 men, fought a corps of 1500 Spaniards, at Cantauta, near San Diego (about five days' journey from Angostura). The Pa triots gave way at first, when the General seized a standard and led them on again to the important, the awful contest — a contest which ended in the Destruction of the Royalists One thousand bodies, dead and wounded, remained upon the field of battle. Arms, standards, ta umpets, drums, medicine chests, papers—all fell into the hands of the victorious Inde pendents?' CORN-EXCUANGE, AUG. 18.—We had but little English Wheat at Market to-day, for which Mon• day's prices were obtained, but the trade was heavy in consequence of the continuance of fine weather, and an expected increase of supply of new Wheat ; Oats fully support Monday's prices ; fine Barley is more inquired after, hut there is no dematid for the inferior qualities.—lu Beans and Peas there is no alteration. IMPORTANT TO MAGISTRATRS —By en Act re ren! ly passed for amending the Laws respecting the Settlement o[ . the Poor, no Pelson can acquire a Settlement unless by renting an house or land of the annual value of 101 , and bona fide hired by such Person. We refer our Readers to the Act i!self (passe() on the 24 nit.) which is very con cise, for further particulars. It is calculated to obviate a great proportion of the Litigation hitherto attendant nit Settlement Cases. WINDSOR, AUG. 17.—Lord St. HELBN's, as R Member of the Council, is in waiting here on the KING. Saturday, the Duchess of GLOUCESTER, 'Accompanied by the Princess AUGUSTA, rode to Bagshot, to view the alterations, improvements, and tepairs, which have been proceeding there for some months past. Their Royal Highnesses returned to the Palace to dinner. COWES, AUG. 16.--The Duke of YottK will cer tainly be here to-day, und, with his Royal High ness the Parrett REGENT, Will i101)0111* the Earl of Cavan, at Eagielturst, with their company at dinner. To•morrow, Lord Henry Seymour is to have the honour of entertaining his Royal High ness at his splendid mansion at East Cowe3. His Lordship is universally beloved in the island, and Iris liberal an:! hospitable spirit has induced him to open hit. lawn and grounds to the public, who are to be trea;ed with refreshments at his Lord ship's entiue el.:pence. 'Die Prince Regent has directed Sir B. Bioomfield to look wit for land whereon he can build; and already the moorings for the Royal Yacht are fixed in our roadstead.— He says he shall pay us an annual visit for a month togc her. 'Hie Prince at present intends to re main here a fortnight longer. . Mr. CANNING'S journey k one connected with health, and not business. A favourite son has long been in a declining state ; and the mild air of Italy is recommended. Air. CANNING'S ab sence will not exceed two months. Lord SIMIOUTIf sent a letter yesterday to the Magistrates at the different Police-offices, or dering them to dispatch some of their officers to Camber%veli and Peckham fairs, to put them selves under the orders of the Surrey Magis• trates, who will sit at the Golden Lion, Cam berwell, in older to preserve decorum, and pre vent any of the disgraceful outrages that occurred at West End Fair. 1,011: LYNEDoCii, accomptinieti by Mr. GRA HAM, has arrived at liatuhurgh. it is conjec tured that his Lordship intends to proceed on a visit to his brolher-in-law, Lorki CATHCART, at St. Pctersburgh.

The PalNce has chosen well the Coast To which his Teasel sped ; 'Tis fit that he who rules the roast Should anchor near spit-head. THE DUCHESS or• KENT'S BlitTH-DAY...—Yes• terday being the Duchess of KENT'S Birth..day, the Doke made arrangements for rejoicings on the occasion. In the morning, at half,.pa-t six. O'clock, the Princess Feoclor, attended by her music-master and the nhole of the domestics, was in the room adjoining the Duke and Duchess's bed-room, to serenade her Royal Wither with " God save the King." In the course of the day several distinguished characters called at the Pa lace, 'to leave their names and dutiful respects on the happy return of the day. Their Royal High nesses had a dinner party in honour of the day. Among the company were,,the Duke of Sussex, the Princess Augusta, the Duchess of Gloucester, the Duchess of Yo►k, and the Princess Sophia Matilda. After dinner, the company adjourned to the apartments of the Duke of Sussex its the Palace, where his Royal [lightness entertained them with tea, coffee, &c. and a select concert, under the direction of Sir George Smart, who pre sided at the grand pianoforte. HAYMARKET.--We have alreadV noticed the representation of The Heir at Law at this Theatre. It was represented again last night with not less suceess and we ought to notice, in addition to what we said in favour of the rest of the perfor mers, that CONNOR gave alt excellent portrait of the faithful old servant Kenrick. The play was followed by the'whimsieal comedy-of Exit by Mis take, the performers of which, TERRY, JONES, RUSSELL, WILKINsoN, antl Mrs. GIBS, gave strong support to their respective characters. The only novel performance was J. Russaid. in Crockery, and, excellent as ToKELEY was, his successor rendered the character very prominent, and was much applauded. The character is wholly extravagant, but there is something enter taining in his ludicrous misery. Miss BEAUMONT, who is a very improving young Actress, was suf ficiently spirited in Harriet.—The Theatre was again crowded at an early hour. WAttnE, it seems, is so great a favourite at Bath, and has so many respectable connexions in that City, that though he has had overtures trot» London Managers, he has determined to re tain his station in tl►,e ancient realm of Kin; BLADUD. Miss O'l RILL, it is said, cleared not less than two thousand five hundred pounds by her Dublin engagement, from which city she and Mr. C. KEMBLI3 proceeded to Belfast, and from thence cross over to Scotland, to fulfil their engage ments at Glasgow and Edinburgh. UN I 0 A LL.—Murder Confessed. —Yes terdav morning, about 3 o'clock, a man, who stated lets name to be Thomas Wood, called at the watch house of the Surrey-road Trust, where he informed Haskett, one of the patrol, that he had been guilty of murder, and requested he might be taken before a Magistrate, for the purpose of making con tession, and stating particulars. Haskett ac cordingly brought him to the office, where he with great composure informed Mr. Allen, that on the 6th of Jime last, while at Leicester, he called on David Evans, a cobbler in Bank-street, in that town, and requested he would scud hint one of his long knives, which he did ; he then called on a young woman named Mary Stain, wbo lied with her friends in Bank -street, and asked her to take a walk with hint. they went into the Ab bey-meadow, where, near a stone-wear, and whet e there was a considerable depth of water, be stab bed her under the left breast, when she dropped down and died. He was remanded. SHOCKING BIWTALITY.-0o Saturday se'n night, Edward Best, lately a baker in North-lane, near Canterbury, was committed to Westgate gaol, by the Mayor, charged on the oath of Sarah Best, his daughter, aged 13 years, with having, on Thursday evening, committed a violent assault on her, by hanging her with a rope to a beam in the garret of his house, in the parish of St. Mary. Northgate. The evidence adduced against the prisoner was of the must heart-rending descrip tion we ever heard of, detailing such acts of cruel ty and brutality to his - unhappy children, that no one could possibly believe a human being could ' have been guilty of. Added to other acts of in , famous bat barit y, it appears titis wretch ha.s been in the habit of stripping his four children naked, three of whom are younger than the complainant, and unmercifully flogging them in that state with a leather thong whip, for the most trifling of fences ; and in one instance, previous to Thurs day, he absolutely ht, rg up two of his poor children by the neck, and lett them in that state till the little innocents were in a state of stran gulation. The constables had great nifficulty in keeping the enraged populace from theiretson of t h e p r i son er, in conveying him for ex,ithination. We sitcerely hope he will meet his due punish ment, and not again be stiff:red to be at Jorge to eNtrcise the sant: bruta:ity,----(3./(ti&•Nr:e,,,Tcureu/2; MANCHESTER MEETING. SECOND EDITION orwini NEW TIMES.' Manchester, Monday Night, Eleven a' Clock. The town is now in peace and quietness for the moment, but !threats of vengeance are predo minant in a very great degree. Since my for mer communication I have visited the Infirmity of this town, and ascertained, precisely, the number of tictims who have fallen in this cause. The number of wounded ,men ay be stated, at a moderate calculation, at Iffhty.-- One unfortunate victim is a Gentleman of the name of HULMK, who is a resident of the town of Manchester, and an individual of great pro perty, as well as respectability, and has only been a few months- married. He was in the charge that surrounded the hustings, and some miscreant aimed a blow at him with a brick, which had effect, and levelled him with the grottod., and in the fall he fractured his skull, which will ultimately be his death : be lingers at present in great agony. Three persons are el ready dead. After the Meeting, the populace assembled in great mobs at New Cross, a place which is in habited by the Irish, and of desperate character ; their conduct was such as to require the inter ference again of the military, whose presence proving ineffectual, they were compelled- to ,luhave recourse to coercive measures, and fired ass -the deluded multitude, the consequence was, that one person was shot' through the hack part of the skull, the wound of which is mortal ; another is this moment undergoing amputation in the leg; and several other persons are carried to the In firmary dreadfully wounded. It is really distress ing to be witness of this awful necessity ; but the only circumstance that can reconcile our feelings to it is, that it will ultimately be attended with beneficial effect. The mob in New Cross proceeded to great lengths, and actually broke open a shop in the neighbourhood, and every respectable person who happened to be passing was stoned. Had it not been' for the interference of Mr. NaulN, the Deputy Constable, whom these men have particularly calutnniated, it is certain that HUNT would not now have been ailve, for the military were determined to cut him to pieces. The loyal inhabitants of Manchester, and loyal they certainly are, felt themselves imperEtively called upon to rescue the town from the odium east on it by the toleration of these meetings. It is solely from such feeling that they have acted ; and, in so doing, they have certainly set an admirable example to the com munity at large; for tliough irritated to a very Ligh degree, they have conducted themselves on this unhappy oecasion with the greatest temper. once and moderation. Half past Eleven o' Clock .—I have this mo ment tvalked round the Town, and find it at pre sent perfectly quiet ; the military are parading the streets, and will not .snfifer three persons to as semble together ; they expect the return of these Reformers to-morrow - , which, if it takes place, %kill he attended with serious consequences, for the Police and Military arc resolute and deter. mined. The Magistrates found it necessary at New Cross to read the Riot - Act, and it was subsequent to that that the above proceedings took place.— The Military and Police were greaily insulted and stoned, ere they attempted tO tire, and even after that, they continued throwing stones at them, suppo,ing the cartridges were blank. A riot of the same description took place at Deansgate, which, howcver, has been quelled, and the town may be said to be at,rresent quiet. FURTHER PARTICULARS RELATIVE TO THE SEI ZURE GF THE RIOTERS. Soon after 12 o'clock, the Mir4islrates and a body of constables repaired to the ground, to which the brigaded Reformers had marched, and In consequence of depositions made before sevetal of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace, by many of the most respectable inhabitans of the towns of Manchester and Salford, in which they stated their apprehension of riot and tumult, as the pro bable consequence of such an assemblage of per sbus twin distant townships, marched thither un der banners so explicit of rebellious intentions, the Riot Act was read, but it did not appear to be much attended to by the infatuated crowd, who continued to scowl and laugh at the consta bles, &c. in attendance. An hour having expired after the reading of the Riot Act, the warrants iif the Magistrates were carried into effect. The Yeomanry Cavalry, in support of the Police Officers, armed with ‘vatranis from -the Magistrates, dashed through the crowd, surrounded the hustings, and arrest ed Henry Quilt, Joseph Johnson, John Tyas, George Swift, John Thacker Saxton, Robert Thowas Taykr, Mary Waterworn), Sarah liargleaves, and Lria tees it, who were car ried the held, and sent immediately under escort, to the New Bayley prison, whilst Caps of Liberty and the Banners of Rebellion Were destroyed and trampled us die dirt. While the seizure was Makin by the Yeomanry, the 15th Hussar., and the 31 st and SS L Regiments of Foot, a brigade of ttitillery, and the Cite shi; e ieomialny. made their appearance on wound, At ttle nrnlrrt sat tit sutrumitting toe hu,hogs, is shower of bile:: bats and daasatt stone were hurled at the Yeomanry, several of :`'hold were &truck, one So sevrely, that he dropped the reins, and his horse tell, by ‘sisicis he nag pitched ol ~ and his skull Was fractined.
