The annexed certi ficate of that eminent chemist, Dr. Fyfe, will prove that it is f ive of potatoe, and contains no deleterious ingredient. " I hereby certify that I have submitted to chemical investi- Rtition the starch manufactured by Messrs.

From trials conducted with it under 113 Y own superintendence, I have found that in starching it sae s farther than the best kinds of patent starch, that it gives i t ;*t tqually fine finish, and that articles starched with it are not "al , le to lose their stiffness. Having witnessed the process of lalai i ufacturing the starch in all its stages, I am satisfied that Pots ',oe flour is not used in its manufacture. " AW. FYFE, M.D., F.

FBAYER'S EMBROCATION for GOUT, RHEUMATISM, TIC DOLOREUX, &c. y of a Letter addr e ss ed b y Cop Trevor Holland, Esq., Surg of eon, C.'armock, near Walsall, Staffordshire, on the 6th July last, to th to Editor of the " Times:"— " Sir,—l think it a duty I owe to the public to make known the efficacy of a remedy which I met with accidentally, and *hi ch has been of such wonderful benefit to myself. Same otor iths ago I met with a very severe accident, having dislo cate d and fractured my ancle severely. From the great tender- Iless of the joint I was quite unable to walk, the limb con tino, sd very much swollen and adematons, and I suffered drea t !fully from severe attacks of spasms in the night, which eaten ded from the ancle to the leg, thigh, back, and to the Having exhausted every resource of relief which I and gay medical friends in the country could suggest, to no liurpoie, I set out for London with the intention of con sulting Sir Benjamin Brodie or Mr. Listen—then to adopt sea bathing. By accident I met with Mr. Feaver, 16 Ludgate-hill, who a pplied his Embrocation, and, to my great astonishment, I had no spasm that night, nor have I had one since. The next morning I came down stairs without my crutches, and was able to walk, the swelling of the limb soon subsided, and I am now rapidly recovering. Having for many years had an ex tensive medical practice in the county of Stafford. I know of - 1 10 medicinal compound possessing such wonderful efficacy. in adding my testimony to Mr. Feaver's Embrocation, I am ac tuated by no other motive than gratitude to him, and a sincere .desire to make known his invaluable remedy to my fellow-suf tsrers. Possessing, as I ever did, the strongest prejudice ak•ainst everything in the shape of quackery, I should be the las c man to uphold a system which, generally speaking, I know to be nothing but a nefarious traffic and humbug. " I am, your obedient servant, " TREVOR HOLLAND, Surgeon. " Carmock, near Walsall, Staffordshire. " P. S. At the various con sultations held u p on my case, the surgeons and physicians (including myself) were decidedly of opiiiion that the frequent violent attacks of spasms would ter minate in lock-jaw, but, as I have before stated, I have not had the slightest symptoms of spasms since the first application of this extraordinary embrocation.—T. H. This justly-celebrated remedy (which is equally efficacious ial any of the above afflictions) may be obtained of, or through any respectable wholesale or retail Chemist in Town or Country, at the Depot, corner of Wellington-street, Strand ; Or from the Proprietor, Mr. Feaver, 16, Ludgate-hill, London.

A MOST EXTENSIVE AND I SHEEP FARM, UNQUESTIONA BLY THE FINES r MPORTANT ESTATE IN THE MARKET, WITH A SHEEP FARM UNSURPASSABLE THROUGHOUT EUROPE, KNOWN AS SLABBERT'S POORT, AND CONTAINING; 43,304 ACRES OF FINE PASTURAGE. MR. GE ORGE ROBINS begs to anno unce to those who are inclined to improve their fortunes in another and very favoured country, and in a climate THAT HAS NO CONTEMPORARY IN EUROPE, that he is instructed to OFFER to PUBLIC SALE, at the Auction Mart, London, on THURSDAY, August 18, at Twelve, A VERY IMPORTANT PROPERTY, • ADVANTAGEOUSLY SITUATE AT THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE, offering attractions awl advantages of the utmost moment to the emigrant Farmer with capital, or the great Capitalist, who will know well hew to appreciate the benefits which his capital, with labour and exertions, will command, in a country where the soil and climate are the most genial, and cer tain, at all periods of the year, to facilitate the laudable endea vour to secure that prosperity and independence to which his bold and praiseworthy efforts will so justly entitle himin thisimpr. tance may be ranked the pro t ec tion which is afforded by country to Settlers, THE TITLE TO THE LAND BEING DIRECT FROM GOVERNMENT, AND UNQUESTIONABE; and lastly, the position of the estate, which is known as SLABBERT'S POORT, one of the most valuable and extensive estates throughout the Cape of Good Hope. It is situated In the field Cornetcy of Tarka, in the county of Beaufort, being in south latitude 33.15 to 20, and east longitude 23.13 to 15, near the Iraka River. It is A SHEEP FARM, and unquestionably may be ranked as decidedly one of the best in the Cape. The hill pastures are covered with sweet grass from the base to the summit. On the plains will be found le plenty of grass and succulent he rba g e, on which sheep and catt get fat very rapidly. In this district the Estate comprehends 43,304 ACRE .i> OF RICH PASTURAGr E, which must always be the source of im mense pecuniary gain. THERE IS ABUNDANT FEED FOR 6,000 SHEEP THE WHOLE YEAR, which, ander able management, it is needless to remark, will afford the most ample remuneration for the employment of capital; and the profit arising from the expo rt and sale of Wool from this prospe rous colony has lately been most encouraging. There is a small house upon the estate, with a sheep krall near it ; a garden planted with fruit trees and 3,000 vines ; also five permanent springs, giving a never -failing supply of water. The late district land surveyor of Beaufort describes tlp Estates as follows :—" Slabbert's Poort is a good sheep farm, and com mands the best pasturage on the River Iraka; and as the high road from the Eastern Provinces to Cape Town passes through the farm, it presents a very favourable position for A STORE, OR SHOP, UPON A GREAT SCALE." Full particulars of the position and advantages of this extensive and unequalled Estate will be published, and may be had twenty . eight days prior to the Sale, of D. H. Williams, Esq., solicitor, Copthall-court, Throgmorton-street, City ; at the Auction Mart ; and at Mr. George Robins's offices, IN THE SOUTH OF DEVONSHIRE. The COLLATON KIRKHAM ESTATE, DIVIDE'? INTO LOTS, ALTOGETHER ELEVEN HUNDRED and SE VEN ACRES, ALL FREEHOLD; also the MANORIAL RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES. The tenantry are unexception able, and the quality of the soil not to be surpassed throughout Devon. There are 100 ACRES of WOODS and PLANTA TIONS, with the entire village of COLLATON, Three Miles from Torquay. R. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to offer into PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Seven Stars Hotel, Totnes, Devonshire, on SATURDAY, September 3, at One o'clock most punctually, and in Lots, EACH FARM TO FORM A SEPARATE LOT, A SINGULARLY ELIGIBLE FREEHOLD ESTATE, which, it may be stated, stands alone THROUGHOUT DEVON'S FAVOURED LAND AS AN INVESTMENT WHEREIN DOUBT AND UNCER TAINTY ARE ENTIRELY REMOVED. And it is fortunately without the alloy of a mansion and its come. quest expense. It comprehends altogether about ELEVEN HUNDRED AND SEVEN ACRES Of MEADOW, PASTURE, ORCHARD, and WOOD LANDS, D IVIDED INTO CONVENIENT FARMS, which are most respectably occupied at rents capable of very consi derable increase ; indeed, on the determination of the leases, at LEAST 2,000/. A.YEAR, MAY BE CONTEMPLATED FOR THE WHOLE. The property will be divided as follows : Lot 1. The Manor of Collaton Kirkham, with act arm of don 447 Acres, a good farm -house, and all requisite buildings, led Bla Barton. The land i ncludes some fine orcharding, and the soil is so rich that the b est bullocks at Smithfield may be traced from. Faynton. The tenant is a first.rate Yeoman. Mr. Searle would nev er condescend to ask fo r or receive any abatement. It is called the Pet Farm of the property, and the estimated value is 600 guineas a-year. Lot 2. Collators Farm and Buildings, with 217 Acres of un. co mmonly fine land. It is a capital Shee p Farm, with fine Wheat Land, and good Orcharding. Lot 3. Lower Yalberton Farm, and 304 Acres of rich land. A Sheep and Corn Farm. Gabriel Jackson, the tenant, is a scientific farmer, and a man of wealth. Lot 4. Whitehill, a new and very compact farm-house and buildings, with 132 Acres of good land. Mr. Elliott is the respect. able tenant. Also, in six smaller Lots, the Royal Oak Inn, the Parker Arms, and the village of Collaton. Besides this THE COLLATON KIRKHAM ESTATE INCLUDES THE WHOLE VILLAGE OF COLLATON. _ Of the situation of this estate it would be difficult to speak in adequate terms. Dartmouth and Totnes are close at hand, and Exeter within a drive of two hours, and THE METROPOLIS OF LONDON WITHIN EIGHT HOURS' RIDE. ..„ THE TENANTRY ARE ALL FIRST-R ATE MEN, AND THERE IS NOT A SOLITARY ARREAR UPON THE ESTATE. The Markets everywhere are very favourable to the Farmers. THE UNRIVALLED DART winds its rapid and circuitous course through WOODLAND SCENERY OF SURPASSING BEAUTY, and presents a constant accession of fresh delight. THE PACKET STATION, it is said, is finally fixed at Dartmouth. There is A MANOR AND MANORIAL RIGHTS which will not be disregarded. The grazing portion of the land is umurpossable ; the cattle fed at Paynton are soon recognised at Smithfield. The produce from the meadow land EXCEEDS TWO TONS PER ACRE, while the corn lands produce from four to five quarters of wheat and barley. It has beside 10 Acres of new orchard and 16 of woods and plantations. Thus terminates a very imperfect representation of a most de. sirable investment, WHICH IS DIVIDED INTO LOTS, AND EACH FARM SOLD SEPARATELY.

GEORGE ROBINS is directed to SELL by AUCTION (by direction of the Assignees of Mr. Andrewes), at the Auction Mart, on THURSDAY, August 18, at Twelve o'clock, A very desirable FREEHOLD EST ATE, alike adapted to in vestment or occupation. It is familiar to the vicinity as BART_ LEY MANOR HOUSE, but it especially claims to be designated A PERFECT SPORTING AND COMFORTABLE ABODE; but although the accommodation within will suffice for a family's entire occupation, in fairness . it will be conceded that a little outlay, with a mixture of tact and good taste, are essential to render it an abode suited to those of " THE FASTIDIOUS SCHOOL," but for a HUNTING AND SHOOTING V ILLA It cannot be too highly appreciated. Its outward form, by means of the stone galleries and balconies in two directions, are of an im posing character, and the Lawn and Pleasure Grounds, extending to the little Park, form a landscape of no small attraction—indeed the property is so prettily timbered, that it seems to claim a rank beyond its natural pretensions. The principal rooms on the ground. floor are ail in communication with the galleries, thence to the Lawn and paddocks. The Bed-room department is abundant, and there are all the offices essential to render it most desirable for oc. cupatlon. There is a snug little Farm connected, FREE FROM TITHE AND NO LAND TAX, extending to THE NEW FOREST, WHICH IS THE BOUNDARY. A Kitchen -garden, walled round, and all the offices that are essen. tial will be found in the Courtyard. The situation is really in comparably fine, the scenery is picturesque and lovely; and those who would sojourn in quietude, and repose in comfort, away from the noise atal turmoil of business, yet surrounded by a vicinage prone to Bodoni:Ay, and of the best society n England, will find this little purchase an absolute " Godsend. i " The Railway has reduced the journey from London to 31. A hours; to Southampton it is a drive of 40 minutes; Lyndhurst is within two miles; and a visit to THE ISLE OF WIGHT is now an affair of little more than one short hour. There are extensive Forest rights of pasturage and other privileges attached to the Estate. Such is a brief but imperfect outline of Bartley House, which is strongly recommended by Mr. Robins as a pur chas of tare occurrence.

GLOBE.—This evening is appointed for the com mittal of the Bankruptcy Amendment Bill, which is a part of the small instalment of Legal Reform offered in payment of those large promises that the 'Minis ters, in the commencement of the session, held out to us. The trifling alterations in the law which this Bill proposes to effect are, it must be allowed, in the right direction ; but the fable of the mountain de livered of a mouse is more than realised if we regard the measure in question as the offspring of the long continued labour that has preceded it. Two Coin missionshave contributed their Reports and the two Houses of Parliament - have, in turn, devoted them- selves during the greater part of the two sessions to the subject of Bankruptcy Reform; while two Lord Chancellors have come forward with Bills to re- medy the evils which all parties seem to con cur in complaining of. it might reasonably have been expected, after all the pains and time that have been expended on the considera tion of Bankruptcy Reform, that when a Bill was at last introduced it would prove a tolerably satis factory one. On looking, however, at the measure before us, we are struck with the meagreness of its amendments. We are, moreover, much surprised to find that even its promoters consider it rather in the. light of a concession to general opinion that " something must be done," than as a measure ade quate to provide for the defects of the existing law of bankruptcy. The Bill has its good points ; and on that account we hope. it may pass; but as a final measure we would reject it as contemptible. Lord Lyndhurst having disclaimed the idea of finality in bringing forward his very moderate plan of Legal Reform, there can be no harm done by support ing him in his present scheme ; which though it goes a very little way, will not preclude the taking of bolder steps in the ensuing session. It is urged by some that the Bill .has been brought into the House of Commons at so late a period, that Members have not had time to give proper consideration to the subject. This is an argument that might be allowed to prevail, if the matter in question were one that had for the first time been submitted to the notice of the Legislature. But Bankruptcy Re form has been discussed in the House and out of the House over and over again, until it is almost impossible that any man of business should not have made up his mind upon the points embraced by the new measure. The Bill is not so long, or so complicated, that much time or trouble need be devoted to the task of comprehending its provisions ; and there is not a clause which relates to any branch of the subject that has not been frequently brought under consideration in reports and debates, or at meetings held by those who are most interested in the matter. STANDARD.— In the House of Lords on Satur day a great number of Bills received the Royal assent ; among others, the New Poor-law Bill, which comet into operation this day. Upon this subject it may be proper to remark, that the Bill thus ratified is not the New Poor-law--not the measure which has excited so much just disgust and indigna tion throughout the country, but a measure of a different and almost opposite character. When the session shall have been concluded, the fit time will come for reviewing the course taken by her Ma jesty's Ministers and by the Parliament under their guidance ; and as friends of a Cabinet which has restored the revenue of the country, finally settled the Corn-law question (for finally settled it has been as far as such a question admits of finality), and greatly ameliorated the Poor-laws, we need not have any fears in entering upon the account. To repair in a single session so many of the evils pro duced by eleven years of Whig-Radical Admi nistration is a great triumph ; and it is a tri umph more unequivocal because even the enemies of the Government do rot charge that Ministers have done anything wrong, but limit com plaint to this, that enough has not &en done ; in other words, the Whig-Radicals complain only that Ministers have not baen sufficiently active in un doing all the evil that they, the Whig-Radicals, have done. However, even where the good work of repair has not been completed, it has been well begun ; and this is eminently the case in the matter of the Poor-law. The present law is a great improvement upon the law which it supersedes. The provision of an honest form of inquiry— the provision for the appointment of local guar dian boards—above all, the adoption by the Mi nistry. itself of all responsibility, for the special as well as general orders issued from Somerset house—these alterations go to effect a change in the whole character of the law ; while the lan guage of the Duke of Wellington and of Sir James Graham hold out a satisfactory promise that the bastiles will be dismantled of .their terrors, that the overgrown unions will be dissolved, and that the tone and temper of the Commissioners will be rendered ,ess inhuman than they have been. LIGHT FOR ALL NATIONS ON THE GOODWIN.—At length, in spite of adverse predictions, and many ominous shakes of the head, Mr. Bush has succeeded in the attainment of his object. The caisson is now safely deposited on the Goodwin, on the interior part of the sands facing the town, usually called by the boatmen the inward salt bank. The occurrence was so unexpected, that there were no more than the ordinary number of persons on the beach to witness the sight. The suddenness of the exit, which took place on edne,day afternoon, about two o'clock, disappointed many, the passarre to the sands occupying two hours and a half , so that at half-past four the voyage was completed. At this time the depth of water on the spot alluded to was eleven feet, and a: the caisson drew about the same number, it gradually rested on the sand, though - in a somewhat inclined position. The arrangements, with rec;ect to towing and steering were con ducted with much skill and precaution, the former by the Monkey, a Government steamer, and the latter by the Lady Flora revenue cutter, commanded by Lieutenant Batt. It is worth mentioning, that at the lowest spring tides the depth of water where the caisson is placed is seldom less than six feet. Mr...,Bush is now adding another tier of plates to replace that whirls was detached from the base during the heavy swell last week. The contir.uanee of favourable weather will now greatly facilitate ulterior operations. LA DVE&TISEMENT.I IMPORTANT TO ALL THOSE WHO EXPECT TO DE. RIVE BENEFIT ' , Rom DRINKING SODA WATER.—Schweppe ' s Soda Water is so universally known and appreciated, not only throughout the United Kingdom, but throughout the civilised world, that any enconium on its merits might appear super fltsous ; but as since its original introduction, upwards of half a century since, many imitators have started up, with more or less claims to public patronage, J. S. arid Co. take the liberty of reminding their friends and the public that the above Cele brated Water continues to be manufactured •n the largest scale and upon the most scientific principles at their chief es tablishment, 51, I3erners-street, London; and also at their three branch Manufactories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby ; and that consumers may be supplied with the genuine article at most of the respectable Chemists, Confectioners, and Italian Warehouses in every province of the United Kingdom. The just reputation of their manufacture, and the consequent de mand for it, have tempted unprincipled persons (many of them of apparent respectability) to practice a deception, against which Schweppe and Co. are anxious to caution the public. The deception referred to is that of passing off a spurious article for " Schweppe's," by selling it in Schweppe's marked bottles. The temptation to this is, the cheapness of the infe rior water, although in most cases the consumer is charged the same. By this artifice a common water is surreptitiously palmed on the public for the genuine—the reputation of the latter is prejudiced by the substitution of a bad article—and a certain proportion of the public patronage diverted from its legitirc ate channel. To obviate these several evils, Schweppe and Co. have adopted the plan of placing a Red Label over the coil( of each bottle, representing the Royal Appointment in the centre, and the name of their firm on each side, with out which none is genuine. Schweppe and Co. refer with pride to the fact that they constantly supply the Royal Palaces of London and Windsor, as well as the principal Nobility in the three kingdoms ; nor is the demand for their Soda Water less constant on the continent and in other parts of the world. Merchants and Shippers in general connected with the East and West Indies and our numerous Colonies are continually transmitting orders received from their respective agents and correspondents, and highly gratifying is the testimony Schweppe and Co. are in the habit of receiving from gentle• men returned from abroad, of the luxury afforded them by their Soda Water when met with in tropical climates, and of the high condition in which it is generally found. The Water ordered for foreign countries is manufactured with an express reference to its destination, and it is well known that no other can equally well endure the variations of climate. Schweppe's I.emonade is an elegant preparation of more recent intro duction, but from its refreshing and wholesome properties is rapidly getting into extensive reputation. It is an effervescing draught of most agreeable flavour, and made of the best mate rials, without regard to cost. Physicians and medical men constantly recommend it in cases of fever, &41, nor is it less de sir mole as an article of luxury. Every genuine bottle will have a yellow fable on its side, with the name and address of t h e fi r m. Schweppe and Co. are the largest importers of the German Seltzer Water, which they receive direct from the springs, in quarts and pints, and which they offer to the public. in the original packages. N.B.—Export orders for all climates executed on the shortest notice. THE - MExica - N STEAM FRIGATES.—A correspon dent writes to us that there need be no such mystery about the destination of the Montezuma steam frigate, as has been affected ; she, as well as another steam frigate lately launched, was built, he says, for the Government of Mexico, and both will shortly sail, to prosecute hostilities against Texas in the Gulf of Mexico. Does it accord, he asks, with the dignity of the British nation, to allow ships of war to be fitted out in English ports, and to be commanded by officers holding her Majesty's commission, against a State with which we have just concluded relations of amity and commerce? Earl De Grey's indisposition arises chiefly from an acute attack of rheumatic gout in his right arm, whi c h prevents his Excellency from using it, and for which his physicians have presci the waters of Baden Baden, where he will proceed in a few dap.

Some of the a dvantages of the Patent Shoe over the common one are as follows :—lt is lighter and neater, equally durable, cannot be thrown, does not require turning up, prevents slipping on wooden pavements , cr in frosty weather, does not requite removing, will prevent or cure con tracted heels, never places a horse's foot in an unnatural posi tion, and is a close imitation of nature ; it must, therefore, be evident from the above and other advantages, that Rodwav's Pa tent Concave Shoe will add considerably to the strength, speed, Edgbaston-street, Birmingham, and 22, Holborn and durability of the horse.

EFFECTS OF TEMPERANCE.—At Limerick, with a population of 80,000 inhabitant,, all the breweries have been closed, excepting one small one, which is more than sufficient to supply the wants of the city and surrounding districts. The Delegates met yesterday morning at the usual hour, at Herbert's Hotel, Palace-yard, P. A. TAYLOR, Esq., in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN opened the proceedings by the follow ing address :—He said—This Conference is drawing to a close—our mission is fulfilled—our work is accom- plished. It remains to review its proceedings, and to give an account of them to those by whom we were de puted. Our object was two-fold ; to give a just and com•. plete statement to the public of the real conditions and prospects of the places from whence we were sent ; and to press upon her Majesty's Government the necessity of affording immediate relief. The former has been most powerfully and completely effected ; and the me lancholy and heart-breaking accounts of destitution and misery which have day by day been communicated by the Delegates, must have convinced the most sceptical that it is not in human nature to bear the continuance of such suffering, and yet it is to be feared an increase of that suffering is approaching, although, as the De puty from Nottingham expresses himself, "No one dares talk of the winter." Every thing that could be done to represent to the Government the condition of trade, and the destitution of the people, has been attempted at various interviews with its members, and the result has been nathing. They have been told by individuals from all parts of the country, and engaged in every description of manufacture—that their trade is de clining, their capital diminishing, and their unem ployed work-people starving ; that foreign countries are offering us food, for want of which the people are perishing, in exchange for those manufactures fur which there is otherwise no demand. They have been conjured by the claims of justice, by the rights of humanity, not to suffer their own sordid interests to trample upon the enjoyments, the comforts, the very existence, of thousands, or tens of thousands, of their fellow creatures and fellow countrymen, and they have been conjured in vain ; They seem resolved upon maintaining the iniquitous Corn-law, which aggrandizes their own wealth, and deprives the people of employ ment and food, a ndkeeping the peace of the country—r. e. by repressing the frantic attempt of the famishing to supply themselves and children with food by force. Our duty is done ; we hare exposed the evil, suggested the remedy, denounced the wrong, and warned the Govern ment of the consequence of persisting in that wrong ; and it remains for us to return to our constituents and tell them that all our efforts to obtain justice for them have failed, and that we can hold out to them no prospect of improvement, and no hope of relief. It is fearful to con template the future. That a:great and highly civilised nation will finally suffer its prosperity to be blighted, and its progress obstructed, by a faction of landowners, is not to be believed. That the millions of industrious and intelligent artisans who ought to be the glory of our country, as they have been the creators of its wealth, will quietly submit to the destitution they are now enduring, to the utter ruin which seems rapidly approaching to gratify the g,rasping rapacity of a landlord legislature, is neither to be an ticipated nor desired. I trust they will use no violence, but not submit to be starved—that they will respect pro perty and life, but not suffer their children to perish by famine ; and if, when the time arrives that " pri- rate property has become a nuisance," the struggle for existence is repressed by bloodshed, by whatever name that bloodshed may be cha racterised in a British Court of judicature—in the eye of reason, of justice, of posterity, and of God, it will receive its true appellation, and be stamped with the guilt of murder.—(Applause.) I have only to say, an address will be submitted to you for your approval, and this Conference will then be dissolved. The Chairman then proceeded to read the following documents : " TO P. A. TAYLOR, ESQ. " Dear Sir,—Being informed by this morning's post of the probability of the Conference breaking up its sittings in a few days, the Committee of the Leicester Anti-Corn-law Association, being anxious to express its thanks to the League, have directed me to forward to you the accompanying resolution, praying most earnestly that this righteous agitation may speedily be crowned with success. " I am, dear Sir, " Your most obedient servant, " 'l'. P. HULL, Secretary. _ _ " Leicester, July 30, 1342. Resolved,—That the Leicester Anti-Corn-law Asso ciation have observed with much admiration, the energetic, persevering, and highly useful services of the Anti-Corn law Conference assembled in London ; that they feel confident a cause so essentially just in its principles, and so momentous in its consequences, must ultimately be successful, and they trust that the enlightened and patriotic men who have thus far conducted the lakiness of the League, will presevere in their agitation, until they realize the accomplishment of their great object ; that this Association begs to express their most hearty thanks to the National Anti-Corn-law League for their indefatigable exertions on behalf of suffering humanity, and promise the League upon every future occasion their prompt and contitious support." "TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE ANTI-CORN-LAW LEAGUE. " Dear Sir,—The speech of Mr. William Brook, one of the Deputies, at the interview with Sir Robert Peel, has induced me to send you the following official statement; believing, as I do, that his speech will give a wrong impression to all who read it, as to the amount of distress in this district, which is very great and alarmingly on the increase : Amount of paupers in April, 1840 66 April, 1841 66 April, 1842 9,431 Increase in the quarter ending July. 1842 Total — 10,992 " So that out of a population in this union of 100,000, we have nearly every ninth person a pauper, receiving relief, to say nothing of the thousands in distress, who, from their dislike to the Poor-law, will 'rather starve than have relief. " I make no comment on then facts, but leave them for you to make vital use of them you think proper. I am, dear Sir, yours faithfully, " BENJAMIN ROBINSON, " Huddersfield, July 30. " Guardian for Huddersfield. " P. S. I have sent Sir Robert Peel a copy of this statement by the same post." " I3acup, near Rochdale, July 30, 1842. 1 " My dear Sir,—As I hear you are still in London, I think it my duty to let you know that trade does not increase in this part of the country. A good deal has been said about trade being better, and the Guardian and some other newspapers have reported it so; however, we have not experienced any improvement at all in prices, and with the exception of we thought a little more inquiry about a fortnight ago, there has been no alteration for the better. On the contrary, for the last week we have been worse. I am a Guardian of a poor-law union in this neighbourhood, and the applications for relief are on the increase and as haymaking is over (at which many of the poor get em ployment), our rates will increase most rapidly, except we have a decided improvement in trade. Masons, joiners, stone getters, &c., who depend upon out-door work for their liveli hood, are fast getting out of employment, and as their trade has been very slack for some time, they have no funds to fall back upon, and will nearly all have to go to their townships for relief. Cottages, which in 1835 and 1836 got up in rent in this neighbourhood at least 30s. at four pounds value (and at that time it was a favour to get a cottage near us, some of our hands having to come two miles to their woik ), are now lowered as much as they got up then, and there are thirty empty ones within a short distance of our works. It must be recollected that these thirty have all been tenanted. 1 think you know that our house at Manchester is very extensively engaged in business, and I will give you extracts from two letters I received from my brother, dated the 21st and 23d inst. "He says, ' I have nothing more to advise you about. It appears to be as we anticipated, viz. that the little improve ment we had last week would soon disappear. It has entirely done so.' Then after stating the extremely low prices that one description of cloth was offered at, he says, ' Is this a good trade? Is this improvement ? I say not. The Guardian when he says the improvement he mentions for last week con• tinned up to the time he wrote his article this week, does not tell true, and I fear he knows it. He is anxious to quote things better, and so am I, but not when I know it is not true. Honesty is the best policy ; but newspaper editors don't appear to think, or at least they don't act as if they th o u g ht so . I hear the report of the state of trade in the Guardian has been quoted by Sir Robert Peel in the House of Commons. It answers Sir R. Peel's purpose, and even if the Guardian should contradict what he has reported, fir 11. Peel will not allude to that in the House.' ROBERT MUNN. " Cullingworth Mills, near Bradford, JO 26, 1842." "TO P. A. TAYLOR, ESQ., CHAIRMAN OF THE ANTL-COEN, LAW CONFERENCE. " You will see by thee extracts, &e., that our trace is not improving, aid that distress is increasing. I hope, before you leave London you will be able to make an impression on the Government. I think from the accounts in the papers they are becoming rather alarmed, but, of one thing I am quite certain, that if they believed in the distress as it really does exist, they would be ten times more alarmed. It is quite evident, the pressure increases every week, and, except something is done, which will have an almost instantaneous effect, we shall be very soon indeed at a complete stand; and, if we are so, who can attempt to foretell the consequences. " 1 remain, yours respectfully, " Sir,—Though hying on the confines of the moors I read with heartfelt satisfaction the report of your proceedings daily in the pages of The Sun, and I am persuaded that in the most remote and obscure parts of the country the people are looking with hope and, intense interest, far more on your proceedings than on those of Parliament. "Distress, which is proved to pervade society, is awakening inquiry in every mind ; and the firm conviction that the causes of that distress are traceable to the Corn-law concentrates the execrations of the masses upon the heads of those whom they regard as protected robbers, and their blessings on yours. If anything could incite the people to revolt and retaliation, it would be the deep and sullen sense of injury inflicted on them, which all the sophistry and art of interested and ingenious politicians cannot move from their minds. But there is an en lightened conviction gaining ground, that society cannot be well regulated by war ; and this conviction, in connection with the influence of religion on thousands of the suffering, induces them to look with intense interest for some other means of de livering them from the unnatural famine occasioned by the ac cursed Corn-law. I have read the report of your proceedings only t o discover what prac tical plan ofrel a ie t f r t i h c e e t C o o r n e f a e d re a n n ee hardly may have to propose , and have satisfiedant Pie l that the Corn-lat 3 s . • arguments, however ab le, is unjust and impoli tic, andsothat all our evils are referable to it. " Of the various plans proposed, the refusal to pay direct taxes seems to be the most effectual, as welt as being peaceful and constitutional; but it is justly doubted whether it will ever be acted on to such an extent in Britain as to effect a eh a s top all h mills in the country (another plan prop ose d) i iattv would be attended with immediate anarchy, and the temporary dominion of all the most unprincipled in the lower ranks of the suffering poor, and God knows our, wicked - laws are tending rapidly to increase their number. " All seem to be agreed that the most effectual plan would be to effect a union between the lower and the middle,classes. Without this, I am persuaded nothing can be done, and it is right they sh , uld be united, for they both suffer from the giant monopoly. But some speak as if nothing more were required. It is true the united demand of the people obtained Catholic Emancipation and the Reform Bill, but these two great mea sures left the control of the national wealth, secured by the Corn-law, still in the hands of the Aristocracy. " For what purpose, then, ought the middle and lower classes to be united? Not in order to prepare for war on the principle of physical force. This, even were it successful, would throw us back into a state of semi-barbarism from which ages might not redeem us. Why, then, adopt a menacing tone if war be not intended. But these are, there must be, other means by which a united people may thwart the measures and resist the power of a dominant but small party. What are those means ? To the solution of this important question permit me to call the attention of your Conference. " I would premise, as established facts, that we are pre eminently favoured by our insular position for commerce, and by our natural resources, and the character of our people, for the economy of manufactures ; that our population cannot now be fed by our own agricultural produce, and that importation of food to a considerable extent will therefore be indispensable; that this, in connexion with the wicked sliding-scale, will un failingly keep up the price of food to the famine mark ; that the famine price of agricultural produce will prevent our people from buying clothing ; and that the hazardous nature of the corn trade will prevent the free exchange of our industry fur the surplus food of other countries ; that gaunt hunger thence arises to our own people, and the nakedness both of our own people, and the people of other countries ; and that the anal issue will be, the loss of our manufactures, as well a• the im mense capital now embarked in them, which is rapidly disap pearing, and the utter ruin of urr national greatness. As I solemnly believe this will be the consequence of our un wise Legislators, saying, in effect, " You shall buy no corn from other countries till you give us a famine price for all we can grow," let us say in feturn," We will frustrate your wicked intentions, and use none of your corn so leng as we can get a supply from other countries, until the law permits us freely, and without restraint, to exchange our labour for the food of other countries." _ . " On this principle of trade, 1 beg to recommend that the Anti-Cern-law League resolve itself into an Anti-Corn-law Trading Company. or, at least, that it should originate the for mation of such a Company, to carry on by its agents, or other connexions, the barter of English cloths, cutlery, stoneware, &c., &c., for the corn and provisions of other countries, par ticularly of America. " From all I have read and heard, I am led to conclude that America alone might supply all our wants, and consume all the products of our industry which we could spare. A gentleman of my acquaintance, wh.• has lately made a tour of observation in America, told me only last week, that to his knowledge men in America, possessed of large estates, and immense stocks of grain and cattle, were actually in rags for want of money to buy clothes, and because barter was impossible. " Now, if such a Company were immediately formed, with agents, or perhaps a corresponding Company in America, for the purpose of barter, and if all the members of the Anti- Corn-law League, manufacturers and work people, were to pledge themselves to use no other grain but such as the Com pany might import, I am persuaded that, in a few months, all our starving people would be well fed, and the unemployed operatives and machinery would be in full activity. The Com pany would pay the 20s. duty for British grain; would soon be low enough to raise the duty to the highest point) and still be able to provide the best foreign flour at 2s. 6d. per stone; while, at the same time, British flour might be reduced to, say 20d. per stone, which, if the corn trade were conducted as at present, by speculators under the sliding scale, would cost the community at least an average price of 3s. 4d. per stone. Thus, even those who should wisely pledge themselves to con sume no British flour, however cheap, would save 104. per stone, and likewise obtain full employment, while those who were not so pledged would pay Is. 8(1. per stone less for the flour. All this reduction in the cost of provisions (for it would soon em brace all provisions) would be expended on clothing, &c., and, restore our languishing home trade. So that the benefit of such a measure would be great, and immediate, and general ; while it would greatly subdue the ruinous and destructive policy of the monopolists. " Some place their hope of rediess only upon agitation, as if agitation were an ultimate power, and seem to take some sort of pleasure in the existence of distress, upon which agitation lives. Those inconsiderate persons might on such ground ob ject to this measure, but the very fact of the existence of such an Association, and in the ease of those who may be prevailed on to enter it ; the sacrifice it would appear to require wou'd always keep them alive to their grievance, and would admit of the grateful agitation conducted by the Anti Corn-law League, until yerfect and unrestricted freedom of trade be established by the laws of Britain. Then would wealth flow in channels which have been hitherto empty and dry ; and the diffusion of wealth thus produced would directly and certainly lead to a more equal distribution of political power. On" On this account the Universal Suffrage party should art, first for the repeal of the restrictivelaws, and then their ulti mate object might be accomplished without the horrors of a revolution. It is extremely doubtful whether even the best organised revolutionary efforts could effect in Britain so exten sive a change in the political system as they demand. " I implore the Anti-Corn-law League to give my proposi tion their calm and serious consideration. Whether it is not the best ultimate measure that could be adopted, and in what way it could best be carried info effect. I am aware these are great difficulties in the formation and success of the scheme ; but perhaps every other scheme will be found to be beset with greater difficulties, and to be less certain of success. " The League may depend upon it that the present domi nant party in the State will cling to power, and refuse exten sion of the Suffrage, only that. they may be able to maintain the monopolies in which they are directly interested ; much. less will they give up the monopolies for which they hold power, until they exhaust all the moral and all the physical force, which their present position places at their command. am, dear Sir, your obedient servant, " ISA AC HOLDING. "P. S. A letter from me on the above subject. headed Suggestions for the Consideration of the Anti-Corn-law League,' was inserted in The Sun, of 3d March last.—l. H." A DELEGATE (Camberwell) said he had heard the re— marks just read with much pleasure, hut it would take up a considerable time in bringing into a working slate. He was sorry to hear that they were near the close of the Conference, as far as the metropolis was concerned, and he should make a proposition sin the subject to the Committee. There was nothing like the present body sitting in London , mild he wished to make some some provision for continuing the work after the Conference should break up. lie should propose that a society be formed in London, to be called the National Society, to do every thing it could for the good of the country and to be permanent in its sittings. The CHAIRMAN (lid not think this was a proposition that could be made to the present meeting, but if he would take it on himself to work it out, they would lend it every assistance in their power. Mr. BRIGHT then addressed the meeting. Be said he fe?t called on to make a few observations on the state in which they found themselves. Some persons appeared inclined to ask what the Conference had done during its session. One thing it had done most decidedly—it had put the Government and the Monopolists more clearly in the wrong than they were be fore the Conference assembled. He had formed pail of seve ral deputations to the Executive Government, and for himself,. had they not brought it on themselves he should feel com miseration for every man in the position of a statesman, who, before any number of his fellow-countrymen, was forced to argue in the same manner, and support the same cause as they had done at the meetings with the deputations, As for Sir R. Peel, 'they believed he held precisely the same opinions as the deputation; it was impossible for any man with his know ledge of the state of the country, of business matters, and the principles of political economy, not to be acquainted with the real opera( ion of the Corn-laws ; he must find his position ex tremely difficult with regard to his argument. It was not to be wondered at that he stated in the House of Commons his dis satisfaction with the general impression conveyed by the reports of those interviews, though lie could not point to any one fact actually misrepresented. The general impression they con veyed was certainly that the Ministers had cut a ea - es unfavourable figure. Sir James Graham said something of the same kind, but the only fact that had come out was, that he himself was guilty of the only mis-statement then made. When he said that Mr. Fielden had stated the amount of labour thrown out of employ by machinery to be 35 per cent., during the last three or four years, the Deputation, whether Mr. Fielden said so or not, did not believe it. With respect to the Press, some portion of the London papers , had done immense service to the cause, and be trusted, before the Conference separated, they would mark their grateful sense of that service. There was one journal, however, the Times, which, though favourable to the repeal of the Corn-laws, had omitted doing that good to the cause which its influence enabled it to do. He could not sit down without adverting to the infa tuation of some manufacturers, who, though from the depressed state of commerce they were going fast to the Gazette, still. sent communications to the Government, stating that the present distress arose from a temporary stagnation .in trade.- hich would be remedied by a good harvest ; and this they dud merely because the party to which they bcloni s ed advocated the commercial policy which was proving so ruinous to their in terests. After a few further observations, Mr. Bright read the following address;— "TILE CONFERENCE OF THE NATIONAL. ANTI-CORN-LAW LEAGUE TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED KINGDOM. " We are about to separate; "e would address you upon the position of our cause. In February last, we assembled in this metropolis, to urge upon the Government and the Legislature the necessity of repealing the Cern-law. The band of mono polists who have usurped the Legislative power, disregarded our remonstrances, and laughed at our warniuga. They triumphed for a brief season, and again sanctioned the miseries of famin by statute. We were baffled for a moment, but were tot east down. From that time the prospects of our country have become mere gloomy—commerce and manufactures have declined—wages have fallen—food has continued scarce and , dear, and agricultural and manufacturing operatives have felt the hand of affliction heavier and heavier. " Again we have assembled—again we have proclaimed from the heart of the empire the impolicy and the wickedness of the Corn-law. We have sought and obtained interviews with the Members of the Executive Government. and have addressed them with a freedom which the consciousness that we were the expression of the public voice nn a question which affects the safety of our country authorised and enabled us to. do. We have forced upon the attention of Parliament, by re peated discussions, the unwelcome subject of the national dis tress and its remedy. We have sent, through the public Press, to the remotest corners of the country, facts and arguments which will become the seed of the great principle of industrial freedom. "We know that our labours have not been in vain. Public sentiment is running strongly, irresistibly in our favour—the the Premier injustice they vote for cannot be .. defended; monopolists in Parliament are mute, conscious that the foul him self having completed the demolition of the fallacies upon' which they have been accustomed to rely. The time for argu ment is past; our opponents seek safety in a morose and obsti nate silence. The question is now narrowed to one of might against right. We have fought the good fight thus far, and we shall fight it out. The hope which animated us four year s ago , is still present with us. It burns brighter— itpoints to an early victory. But the present is a time of awful importance. We lower that the springs of national wealth and power are rapidly drying: the existence up, and that the disease which isnow preying upon the resources nenc of of t thhee country peril i which of our country may soon get beyond the reach of remedy. We s would urreu u n d o t conceal es ; they m from emenace the i mrn y e pray they may be averted. We would say to you, look to your representatives ; the majority of them have 'basely sold you. Give them no rest. 'When they visit your boronghs and coun ties, tell them the law .made-famine must be put an end to, that Let the millions must b e fed. deputationswait upour them, that they may know to be trampled in the dust for ever. To the constituencies who have presented such men to Parliament, we would say,,, ' Make instant 'atonenient for your error, by urging upon your Members the difficulties which surround you. Tell them, the people must live even though party perish.' " Fellow-C ountrymen, — gn are not responsible for the e vil s of the present, nor for the calamities which may be in store. We have warned the Government; we have instructed the people ; we depend upon your intelligence, and upon the fears , of the Monopolists. We know how dangerous is the crisis through which we are passing, and we cannot conceal from ourselves and from you, that there are breakers e--head, and
