f.-iPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. It is our deliberate conviction that a Reform or Parliament is our only security against a revolu tionary overthrow of the Church and St ate of Eng land. Beyond all question, if the Whig Ministers be not now supported, a Tory G overnment —or rather bastard-Tory—would stand a good chance of immediately succeeding to office. An Administra tion cf pure Tories, indeed —that is, of Tories throte . r.h prejudice or fanaticism, but, according to their lights, or blindne:=s, honest withal — co uld not, we believe, be formed. The p a rty is itself fast crumbling to decay. Its numbers are limited—its intellectual capacity still more limited—the public feeling entertained towards it falls not far short or derision. It must seek to recruit its ranks from ()tiler quarters—from among those who .were not Tories; that is to say, from the class of unattached, ou tlying, a dventurers, unencumbere d with p rinci p les or opinions of any bind—waiters upon Providence or fortune. Recruits, however, from such an order of politicians would be caught up with great diffi culty by an Administration, of whose tenets the ftshion has gone by. Political adventurers, are, for the most part, been and shrewd fellows, watch ful cf the wind, sharp-sighted enough to know a " hawk from a hand-saw" whenever their own interest is concerned. They are usually men of shifts and compromises, vduing the like qualities in others, and above all things in the world, looking with instinctive contempt on people who will not bend to the force of circumstances, or swim with the current of the times. Hopeless of extraneous succour, then, we see not how the ultra Tory coteriy (for to such dimensions does the party seem to us to be reduced) could carry on the Govern ment for a single hour. Suppose we, therefore, the - Whigs dismissed, and the wild or unadulterated Tories disposed of; who would succeed to office' There remains no material for a Government, that we. con find, hut the impure, or bastard, or, for waet • of a better word, the trading Tory faction,—your place sod pension -men,—your men of prece dent, of practice, of detail, of expedient, of much dexterity, of small retrenchment, of distant but " not quite impossible" Reform ;—men for whom Downingostreet comprises the only spot on earth of which they can breathe the air without something like a sense of suffocation. This trained, and, to the country, most formidable band, would, it is greatly to be dreaded, become Ministers if the Whigs were overturned. And what, then, would follow ? The public may guess from the means by which they have been for some time working to undermine the Whigs. There is no violation of eecrecy in mentioning what seems to be admitted among ell the best informed circles—viz, that at tempts have been made of late, in a spirit no less iniquitous than daring, to persuade an illustrious Personage that the pledge of his Ministers to meet the universe} desire of the people of England for a correction of those moreorous abuses which have crept through the constituent body into the whole of their respective system, is a pledge to revolu tionize the Stine! From various quarters, and highly respectable, has it been circulated that the Royal ear is thus abused from day to day, for purposes the most selfish and criminal. IF, then, they who hope to succeed the present ;Ministers found their own superior claims to his Majesty's confidetice on their hostility to that mea sure,—viz. a Reform of Parliament, by which the existing Government is pledged to stand orfall,-- e -the new Cabinet so to be formed will have " noßeform" for its test and wuteln,vord. It cannot break faith with the Sovereign by undertaking that same mea sure which he will have been prevailed upon by the representations of its members to expel from his councils another Ministry for promising. The new Cabinet cannot do with the manly and plain-sailing mind of King William what another Administration was accused of performing during the life-time of George IV., —namely, make one certain policy the pretext for destroying a rival Government, and in stantly ;Jae: wards carry that same policy into execu tion. No such project can now be meditated with regard to Parliamentary Reform. Whatever Cabi net shall supplant (we speak of an event which, we ten s!, is not hhety)—whatever Cabinet may sup plant that of Lord Grey, by poisoning the Royal mind with chimerical fears of Reform, will be tied to the stake, and compelled to act upon a system adverse to every species of Reform. Then let King 'William look round him, and examine what power ran such a Ministry command to support a scheme of Government so universally reprobated by his people. Is the present Parliennent to be relied npen ? Notoriously not. The Duke of Welling ton, et the opening of the session, reckoned upon hard run between him and the reformers. But what has happened since ? Why, England. has spoken : towns and counties, rich and poor, the middle classes every where, are phdged, not like the Whig .Ministers, to grant Reform, buteas a free people ought to do, they say with one voice they insist, on it. Let a new Cabinet, then—we care not who it may consist of, should even Mr. Goul burn himself be at the bead of it—let any Ministry etteeept to drown the cry for Reform in that of " Revolution," there is not a village in the United Kingdom, from Dover to the north-westerly point of Donegal, whence petitions will not pour in upon the Sovereign to dismiss such a Government for traitors;. If the King listens to the voice of obser eaet and disinterested men, his Majesty will learn that to resist Reform in such an age as this, would be to have repeated, in England, a lesson which Providence seems to have inflicted upon other States, expressly that their neighbours may have the wisdem to profit by it. It is not the interest of a King of England, or of any Monarch, that Iris people should Huffer ; nor can it be for his happiness that they should assail }din with remonstrances or murmurs. Tice people of England have a right to what they ask—to redress .of grievances, and to •rot,^tion against the abuse of po wer. The Kin g p ea, has a right to their allegiance in the same degree in which he affords them protection ; and it is the doctrine of our Constitution, that he can claim no more. If tile people, despairing of redress of grievances through the regular channels, should force fresh channels for themselves (and these are de 2 ,at in which such things have happened), what will be tire mournful result for the survivors of a period so calamitous ?—Why, the internal relations of the British - Monarchy will all have been dis turbed, and its Lest institutions subverted, that a mercenary faction might prolong for a few months the experiment of tyrannizing over King and , - peopte.—i Sir E. Sugden (as our readers will see in our Chanc;ry Report) complained of an article in the Chronicle of yesterday (he account of the meeting o f the members of the Chancery liar, on Sa , urday), rt !wive to the practice -as to motions, in which it was cstzw.d that he had made a proposal for transferring mo tions to the Rolls' Court, in which it was stated, in for the purpose of placing him in an unfa vourable light ; but we are at a loss to understand on what ground he complains of it to the Lord Cnancidlor. Is it, or is it not, true that Mr. Jem mett, Sir Edward's son-in-law, proposed to transfer a pertion of the motions to the Rolls' Court, in _which' Sir Edward himself does not practice ? We are not so unreasonable as to expeci from Sir Ed ward that he should he pleased w ith truths that are prejudicial to ; but-any man, whose irritability • . nor altogettier overcome his ,di ser , t i o „, wou ld avecontriyed to keep his displeasur e to himself where he could expect so little sympathy with it limn oti.,.2rs. If we might allowed to off , r ad _ vice to 6ir Sugden, wOuld observe, t h at t r ile fretfulness which is apparent - , even in his demeanour end-countenance, on all occasions since he ceased to hold . office, is by no means calculated to obtain for him • that deferential ' awe that is necessary to successful excrcise of the sort of di cta .. tot ,hii) to which himself or his friends have After the lofty no te of preparation sounded .in the John Bull, of the 16ih.Lnmay? that he is to keep the Lord Chancellor steady, as" without tiy intention on t he p :rt of the late Solicao; -Gcnc ' ral to intimidate his Lordship, never was Chancel• for more afraid of a Barrister" than his Lordship is of " that said Sugden" after being told this great man " sends for a Lord Chancellor when he wants him," hut " that he will by no means allow a Lord Chancellor to take liberties with him," that he is the man to pull Lord Brougham " off the high horse ;" after being told, in the John Bull of the 23d of January that " Sir Edward will get hint (the Lord Chancellor) into tolerable order in time," the public will be somewhat surprised to see this ereat and commanding mortal fidgetting in the Court of Chancery, his peace of mind absolutely disturbed, on account of a statement in the Morning Chronicle, which he does net attempt to contradict, but which he merely says is injurious to him. If the truth be injurious to him, let him look to the proper quarter for a remedy, namely, to himself, and not to the Lord Chancellor. But the public are much less interested in Sir Edward's ability to play the schoolmaster in the Court of Chancery than in seeing an end put to the arrear in the Vice• Chancery Court. In one Court an excellent Judge has got rid of all arrears, and in another there is a heavy arrear. What it would become Sir Edward to explain is, the cause of his present opposition to a Reform, from which suitors would derive the greatest benefit.--Morning Chronicle. The County of Down has led the way in Ireland on the subject of Parliamentary Reform. A meet ing of the freeholders of that great county was held some days since, the high Sheriff in the chair, when several excellent speeches were made, arid resolu tions entered into, strongly expressive of confidence in the present Administration, and of earnest yet temperate desire of Reform. It was resolved that the petition to both Houses of Parliament, framed in accordance with the resolutions, should be offered for presentation to the young Lords, Castlereagh and Arthur Hill, who represent the county, hut upon condition that they shall support the prayer of the petitions ; and, in case of a refusal, that the petitions shall be transferred to the hands of Air. Ruthven, the popular Member for Dowupatrick, who attended the meeting, and took an active part in the proceedings. —Morning Chronicle. The Reform meetings are multiplying throughout the country, and among municipal bodies heretofore considered close—a description well known to our readers when applied to Corporations, Vestries, and Scotch Burghs, as denoting that in-and-in breeding which all judges of cattle hold to depreciate the beast. The city of Gloucester, represented by its Corporation, met on the 25th ult., when the Mayor, Aldermen, Sheriffs, and Common Council of the city agreed to a very strong, but temperate, petition in favour of Parliamentary Reform, to which the seal of the city was affixed. The borough of Warwick, long since emancipated from its close Corporation and " Parliamentary influence," has convened, by a requisition sigeed by one hundred and sixty of its principal burgesses, a public meeting of the inhabitants, " to take into con sideration the propriety of petitioning the Legis lature for an effectual Reform in the Commons House of Parliament, for the abolition of all useless Places and Pensions, and for a thorough Retrench ment in the Public Expenditure of the Kingdom." The meeting is convened by the Mayor, and will be held at the Court-house on Wednesday. \Val- Bilston, and all the populous unrepresented towns in the midland counties and great central manufacturing districts, are holding meetings of similar object. The determination of the people to achieve Parliamentary Reform is daily more and more manifested. Reform, sanctioned by the Councils of the King, can never again be " pat down," Gagging Bills, suspensions of the Habeas Corpus Act, green bags, sham plots, yea even stand ing armies, cannot now uphold the boroughmongers, though faction should succeed in defeating the Ministry in the present House of Commons.— Morning Chronicle. The continuation of the debate in the French Chamber of Deputies on the 28th of January is de serving of the most serious attervion. A strong feeling was evinced on the liberal side for the union with Belgium, and interference in behalf of the Poles. It came out in the course of the debate that the Belgians would have been attacked by the Holy Alliance if France had not interposed. We never imagined that the King of Holland would have spoken as he did of the assurances he had re ceived from his Allies, except on an understanding that they were to overrun Belgium. One of the speakers referred to Ireland in a manner not very much calculated to gratify an Englishman : " We do not fear war," said M. Mauguin, in his re ply ; " and if Belgium sliould offer herself, I would say, even at the risk of war, ' Accept her !' It would be a deadly war I know, but it would be to the honour and glory of France. And, besides, who would dare to attack us ? Would it be Russia? She has Poland and Turkey to contend with.—Would it be Austria ? She knows that with 50,000 men we should give her occupation in Italy. —Would it be England ? With steam-boats we could carry arms and battalions into Ireland.—(Strong sensa tion.)—l here speak upon the supposition of war." Let us consider M. Mauguin in the light of a friend, for this notice. On this occasion he has spoken out what is thought by the generality of Frenchmen. It is the interest of France and England to be on friendly terms with each other ; and we really do nut see why the two countries should go to war because the Belgians wish to be united to the French. There is a material difference between one people wishing to be united to another, and one people conquering another. The Belgians were torn from the French, and it is not unnatural that !bey should seize the first favotu able opportunity to renew the connection. But, however, this may be, it were to be wished that Ireland did not tempt the French t o presume so much as they do on our helpless ness. The French take it for granted, that where six out of seven putts of the people of a country are exposed to the mortification of beholding the religion of the seventh part established as the religion of the country, with one-tenth of the produce of the soil, and immense estates besides assigned to it, the six remaining parts, who pay for this establishment, cannot be well affected to the Government. There is a cause for every thing. When we want to know the cause of the disaffection of Ireland, we may ask eurselves why Scotland is well affected ? Would Scotland have been well affected if treated as Ire land is treated ? Will Ireland ever be well affected till treated as Scotland is treated ?—• ikforn. Chron. Great alarm seems to pervade those local sinks of and corruption, the petty corporations :lirotighout England, at this moment, lest the ap proaching day of " Reform" may restore to the people those rights which they have usurped, and those franchises which they have.most grossly abused. In many of those corporations the right of choosing Members of Parliament, which was originally in the inhabitant householders, or in the community at , . large, have;'in a lapse of time, been wrested alto gether front the people, and kept in the close pos session of a select few, who drive a most profitable traffic in. , the art and mystery of representation. Many of those usurpations have been confirmed from time to time by decisions of Committees of ihe'House of Commons—for these tribunals have, id general, lent themselves to the narrowing of the elective franchise, at least in former times, an d thereby created much of the public mischief, which only a broad and judicious plan of Reform can re pair. They have chosen to adopt Dr. Brad y' s ab surd translation of the word communitas in the old darters, which translation was not the result of ignorance, but of &sign. By reading those charters under t ha " light" 'thrown upon them from the lan tern of th,t ingenious Doctor, they have practically done them into English" in a way which equally violates the construction of language and the principles of the Constitution. Thus, in many in stances, what Corporate usurpation begun, Legisla tive ign,,rance has completed, and the rights which, nom time immemorial, had belonged to the com monalty of the boroughs, have teen transferred to a few johbers,who generally enjoy the golden patronage of one or two rich men of great families, who nomi nate the persons whom the venal electors arc directed to return'; and yet such boroughs are Paid to be represented. Even Governor Gesler was better re presented by his hat upon a pole in the market place, for it was his 0 s n will that it should be re verenced as his representative ; but the great body, or the community of the inhabitants of those corpo rate towns know nothing of the individuals who are to personate them in the house of Commons, and, as they had no part or lot in placing them there, are consequently in a worse condition than the Aus trian expounder of the doctrine of virtual re presentation. We are aware that Corporations were originally created for a useful purpose, and that their existence in earlier times of our history, produced effects highly beneficial to the nation. They were a power created by Royal authority, when the feudal system was at its height, to counteract the power of the feudal B rous, who often proved too strong for the Sovereign himself. The charters which enfranchised large bodies of people exercising some craft or trade at time when the cultivators of the soil were the vas sals and serfs of the aristocracy, raised up great and powerful bodies of men, whose immunities and pri vileges were derived from and sustained by the King, and whose interests were in collision with the Lords of the feudal system. But tln;se corporate bodies have outlived their usefulness—they have survived the necessity which created them. They ought to have been swept away with the feudal sys tem out of which they grew. They have not only ceased to be useful, but they have actually become a source of many pernicious grievances to society. The usurpation of the elective franchise is one—the levying of local taxes, which are too often squan dered in the most disreputable manner, is another. The diverting of the funds of public charities is a third grievance, for which many of those Corpora tions are answerable—and, generally speaking, the examples of extravagance, gluttony, dissipation, venality, and corruption, which they exhibit in their public proceedings, have most injurious consequences on the morals of the people at large. They are, in short, the minor Augean stables of the State, and can only be cleansed by the besom of a sweeping Reform.—Morning Herald. If general report is to be credited, another victim has been offered up at the shrine of that demon which, unhappily for their families and their country, so many persons of talent and of character have been found to worship—we mean the horrid Mo loch of gaming. Against this detestable, selfish vice, we have never ceased, and never will cease, to wield the powerful engine of the Press. And though we may fail to hunt the nuisance from out of the land, we have good reason to know that we have deterred some, and shansed many, from a career which, more than any other, entails ruin upon its votaries, without one solitary redeeming apology or advantage. The truth is, that the gamester is by far the worst man who infests society. The infidel and open robber are bad enough; but your cold-blooded gambler has all their vices, with a su peradded catalogue of his own, more fiendish in their nature than any which belong to the open violaters of public rights and private decorum. What sort of husbands, fathers, brothers, and friends, this horrid vice transforms its votaries into, those into whose uncorrupt society they sometimes fall can best bear witness; but the catastrophe of their lives sometimes proclaims the naked truth to the world, when cowardice and selfishness mark the suicidical close of the gambler's wt etched career. For patri otism, in any shape, the victims of this all übsorbing propensity have no place in their heart ; or rather, we might say, no heart for it to find a place in. Some of them (too many, we fear) are Legislators —hereditary and otherwise : but, if Nero piped while Rome was burning, with still more fatal in difference can these persons desert the highest and most sacred duties for the infatuated calls of a pro pensity to which savages are at once addicted, and which reduces civilized man to a savage.—Morning Herald. The Times of yesterday renews its supplications in behalf of the gentle Whig Reformers, whose holiest Cabinet is said to depend upon the toleration of honest Radicals. The Standard appeals to the honest feeling of Protestant Tories in behalf of the same honest Cabinet against the thunder of the T.nmes. The Courier twaddles on in favour of a something which it professes not to understand, and grounds all its hopes upon the assumed assistanc e of Peel and Wellington. The Moi ning Chronicle assures us that the mountain has, after many throes and pang., been fairly delivered of a banding, which is already zone to Court, to be approved of by his Majesty. The Examiner, whose hostilil to Brougham is at least candid, assures us that the people will never allow another man's chill to be fathered on them, and denounces it as a Tory wolf in Whig clothing—a deformed trans formed, whose sole merit will be novelty, but whose birth may tend to perpetuate the Grey family job to the twentieth generation. Thus, on the last day of the that month of the great year One, we are as sured by all the Government Press that to prop an honest Cabinet, Radicals and Protestant Tories, Royal favour and popular will, are indispensably necessary. Yet, strange to say, each party must be on its guard against the other—each must overmatch the other—each must nevertheless tole rate the other, and be at one and the same time poll mass Nardi, as the French are to Lord Palmer ston, in order that an honest cabinet may hold to gether in spite of wind and weather. The Reform bubble may burst, but woe to its projectors. Earl Grey must either attempt to preserve or pull down the Constitution. The parties who surround him must make their choice between God and Baal, but of both he cannot long secure the favour and support. To please the Times and people he must sacrifice his older. To stand by that order, he must go against the stream which he professes to follow—against the people whose sovereignty he is bound to obey. In either case he must stand a convicted quack. The great something will prove a little nothing, and the credit obtained upon false pretences, once blown upon, will render his Govern ment as unpopular in England as it is popular among her foreign enemies. Abroad he may be loved, be cause he is not feared. At home he may be feared, but he cannot be loved ; and he will never earn his country's confidence.—Morning Post. The multiplicity of interesting matters with which this day's Journal is filled, has scarcely left us suffi cient space to do justice to the most important of all the news which it could possibly contain—the future prospects of the country respecting a Reform in the representation of the people. The Tories are in the field—they have agreed on various points of opposition to the present Government and its measures, and they are determined, " come weal, come woe," to urge them to the utmost. Is this wise ? DJ they know the real situation of the country ? the feelings of the community ? the po pularity of the Government ? We think not. Re form, retrenchment, and honourable peace, are in the mouths of all parties—and not only in their mouths but in their hearts. They are the sine qua non to the re-establishment of public confidence — to the safety of the Constitution—to the future prosperity of the country—to the regular payment of the interest of the national debt. Are Sir It. Peel and his colleagues prepared to run the risk of effecting the reverse of these things, in order either to regain official station, or to prevent that Reform which 999 out of every 1000 persons in the country deem to be indispensable to its salvation ? Nay, more. What do they think would be the con sequence of either compelling the present Ministry to resign its honourable office —an office to which it has been called by the unanimous voice of the country—or to dissolve the present Parliament ? Do they think that the country would be pleased to see them again in office ? Do they imagine that they ' could occupy the Ministerial benches for even one short month ? If they do imagine or flatter them selves to this extent, we beg leave to tell them, that "they greatly deceive themselves. The country has cast them off for ever—at least until it has righted itself, anti they have changed their principles. " No Reform" proved their death blow; and their acces sion to office, in the present state of continental affairs, would be the signal for revolution. Again, are they blind enough to see that if, by intrigue and unfair opposition, they were to succeed in displacing the present Ministry, they would necessarily pave the way for one ten times more odious to them ? They could not step into its shoes, as we have already observed ; and who then would succeed it ? Why the Radical party in the House, whick would sweep away at once not only the rotten boroughs, to which both Tories and Whigs chat; with such devout affection, but every abuse in the Church, from which the " great ones" in the land have so largely profited. We speak these things advisedly, and we set them down for the serious consi deration of those Nvho, either from public or private motives, are inclined to oppose Reform. We have a word also for the ear of the Minister. His mode of bringing forward the question of Reform in Parliament is good, because it will shew the country at once the sentiments of the Members or the House of Commons on the subject, and the manlier in which the interests of the country are represented ; but his plan is, we fear, too limited to meet the wishes of the people, and ought either to be extended before being proposed to the House of Commons, or a general understanding entered into between the members of the Government, to urge a more sweeping and effectual Reform. They were brought into power by the people, and to them they must look for support in all their measures.— Alorning Advertiser. We refer with unfeigned satisfaction to the ac count of a meeting which was held last night at the City of London Literary and Scientific Institution, on the eubject of the taxes on knowledge. Having so frequ.Aitly advocated the cause of a reduction of duties on stamps and advertisements, and our opinions being, in every respect, in accordance with those of the meeting, it is unnecessary to make any observation upon them ; but we cannot, nevertheless, help reiterating our hope that the preseut Govern ment will see the wisdom, as well as the policy, of meeting the wishes of the community in this respect. 'The general report is that a reduction of one-third has been determined upen.—Morning Advertiser. A meeting of the Clergy and members of the Established Church took place in Sackvilie-street, on the t.29tli instant, at which the following petition to the KING, praying his MAJESTY to proclaim a fast and a day of humiliation, was agreed to :—" That your MAJESTY'S humble petitioners are earnestly desirous that your MA- J FSTY should be pat in possession of the anxious prayer of many of your MAJESTY'S dutiful subjects, who, viewing your gracious MAJESTY as ruling for Curtis; `by whom alone Kings reign and Princes decree justice,' are thereby hound to your MAJESTY with a devotedness that no infe rior motive can give, and whose loyalty being grounded on a Scriptural basis will be found firm and true amidst all dangers. Your MAJESTY'S humble petitioners, therefore, at this time approach the throne of your MAJESTY with all dutiful obedience, and seeing that the transgressions of our country are manifold, and our dangers not few, do be seech your MAJESTY, as the father of your people, to pro claim a fast and day of humiliation for the United King doms ; whereby, as in ancient flays, the wrath of a justly offended Gon may, by the mediation and intercession of our gracious SAVIOUR, be turned away, and amidst the distress of nations and awful convulsion of the kingdoms of the world, our beloved country (over which your gra cious MAJESTY . and illustrious QUEEN reign beloved by yosr people) may be yet spared, and become a praise in the earth, thereby ♦erifying that immutable truth, that righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.' That your MAJESTY may graciously listen to the voice of your people, is the earnest desire of your MAJESTY'S petitioners, and they, as in duty hound, will ever pray for the peace, welfare, and stability of your MA JESTY'S throne." A meeting of the inhabitants of Kinross, Milnebort, and the surrounding country, was held at the former town on Thursday last, when resolutions i❑ favour of Parliamentary Reform, and particularly referring to the peculiar representation of Kinross-shire, were unani mously adopted.—Scotsman. NOTTINGIIANI POLITICAL UNION.-Dur ing the last week more than two hundred persons have entered themselves as members of the Union. We under stand that the general meeting will very shortly be held, for the purpose of making a declaration of opinion on the vote by ballot, and on the Ministerial plan for Parlia mentary Reform, so soon as it shall be made known.— Nottingham Review. LURGAN REFORM MEETING.—On Satur day last a meeting of the inhabitants of Lurgan, and its neighbourhood, took place in Lurgan, W. J. flAsscocx, Esq., in the chair. The meeting was addressed at con siderable length, by JAMES JOHNSTON, THOMAS HALL, JAMES BOYD, Esqrs. ; Rev. H. DOBBIN, Mr. J. PAUL, Mr. W. M'Cutsocii, Mr. R. TRAIL, Mr. G. M‘Mus, LEN, &c.—The resolutions adopted included vote by ballot, triennial Parliaments, and an extension of the eke the franchise. This is an additional triumph of the cause of Reform.—. Northern IVhig. THE NORTHERN REFORM CLUB.—On Monday a meeting of persons, inhabitants of Belfast, awl its vicinity, friendly to the object of Reform in Parlia ment, took place in the Commissioners' Room, Comsner. cial.buildings, JOHN SINCLAIR, Esq, in the Chair. The object of this meeting wa s to del i berate on the propriety of establishing a Reform Club in Belfast ; and to adopt rules and regulations for its constitution and management. Dr. TENNENT, Mr. ROBERT GRIMSISAW, Mr. JOHN BARNETT, Mr. WILLIAM MONTGOMERY, of Rosemount, and several other gentlemen took part in the business of the meeting. It was unanimously agreed that a society should he formed ; and that it should be made as general as possible, not being confined to inhabitants of Belfast, or the county of Antrim, but including such friends of Reform, inhabitants of the Northern Counties, as might choose to become members. It was agreed that it should be called, " The Northern Reform Club."—Northern Whig. There is a rumour that the approaching meeting of the county of Lanark for Reform is the result of some arrangements between the Duke of HAMILTON and Lord DOUGLAS ; the Hon. CHA RLES DOUGLAS being to propose the resolutions. Should any such agreement have been made, no one will think that Lord DOUGLAS has come over to the Duke, but that the Duke has gone over to him. The word Reform has so general a meaning that any man, whatever be his politics, may speak in its favour, without changing an opinion of any sort. Sir RoneaT PEEL himself, the head of the opposition to the liberal Ministers, is for Reform. What sort of Reform ? A Reform which would enable that class in Manchester who formed the yeomanry cavalry, to return a couple of Members. This is called Reform ; and Sir ROBERT might with perfect consistency move resolutions in its favour. But what would Lord Avriione say to such support ? Glasgow Chronicle. LAUNCESTON REFORM MEETING.—The spirit excited in Cornwall by recent events has not been confined to the freeholders, who felt themselves de graded by the neighbourhood of so much borough cor ruption, even in the centre of the borough monopoly ; the people came forward, and for the first time since the perfection of the present system have kicked against those who heretofore enjoyed the whole power and influence of the kingdom. Of this there cannot he a stronger in stance than the meeting held in this town, where, and in a village separated from it only by a brook, the Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND has returned four Members for a number of years, without any opposition. The MAYOR haring refused (upon a requisition signed by 53 house holders) to call a Reform meeting, eleven of those respect able inhabitants gave notice of a meeting at the King's Arms-inn, and at noon on Thursday, the large room was crowded by respectable persons. THOMAS PEARSL, Esq., was called to the Chair, and stated that the object of the meeting was to promote a Reform in the system of electing Members to serve in Parliament, which hitherto was so unlike what it ought to be. Several gentlemen addressed the meeting, and it was unanimously agreed that the proposed petition should be presented to Parlia ment, imploring it to place the system of representation on that tooting which would embrace the property and intelligence of the nation ; and so to extend it, that the privilege and birth-right of British subjects might be warded from any undue influence on this part of either King, Lords, or Commons. DEATH OF NATHANIEL GORY.—On Wed nesday NATHANIEL Gow, the will-known Scottish vio linist and composer of many popular national airs, expired at his house in Edinburgh, after a painful illness of several years. In his latter days Mr. GOV; had enjoyed a pension from King GEORGE IV., who, it will be recollected, treated him with some marks of Royal condescension, on observ ing him at the head of his band in Dalkeith House, in 1822.—Ineerness Courier.

Mary Ann Dean, the wife of Mr. John Dean, landlord of the Valentine and Orson public-house, in Long-lane, Bermondsey, was charged with bigamy. Mr. Dean was married to the prisoner in 1811, and they had three children. A young man named Ryall, a parchment-maker, was in the habit of fre quenting the Valentine and Orson of an evening, and owing► to his good-natured and kind disposition to the children in the house, he became a favourite not only with them, but also with the landlord and his wife. About six months ago Mr. Dean, being extremely ill, was advised by his medical attendant to go into the country for the recovery of his health, where he had remained until the last week, when,' having been informed that his wife had been mar ried on Tuesday last to Ryall, the shock had nearly deprived him of his senses. As soon, however, as he recovered in some measure from the state into which he had been thrown by the tidings from home, be came up to town, ill as he was, and found Ryall in possession of the bar of the Valen tine and Orson, and serving there in every respect as master of the house. Mr. Dean then called his wife, and having questioned her as to the truth of her having been married in his absence to Ryall, she u nhesitatingly admitted it to be the fact, say nig, that their nuptials had taken place on Tuesday last, at St. Peter's church. Mr. Dean added, that he called a policeman, and gave both his wife and Ryall into custody. During the statement made by Mr. Dean, he frequently stied tears, and his feel ings seemed to be wounded most acutely. Ryall was married to the prisoner on the day specified, but at that time did not know she was a married woman. Mr. HONE-But you were aware that they had children, and that they lived as man and wife, even even if they were not married. Ryall—The prisoner declared to me most solemnly that she was not married to Mr. Dean, and under those considerations I married her. _ _ Kent )rags... Essex Ditto., Sussex Ditto Old Duty on 1: 1 Here the prisoner, who is a tall, well-looking woman, in a voice almost choked with sobs, said, " I am the guilty person—let me suffer, for Ryall is innocent." Ryall did not marry her for the sake of her pro perty. He had an affection for her children, and should have done the part of a father towards them. The prisoner then accused her husband of having treated her with cruelty, and expended some money on the public-house which belonged to the children. Mr. Dean denied having treated his wife in an improper manner, and said he wished to presecute Ryall for stealing some of his (Mr. Dean's) books, which he found at Ryan's lodgings. Ryall said the books should be returned. Mr. Dean was in the habit of receiving the most kind and affectionate epistles from his wife while he was ill in the country, advising him to remain there until his health was completely re-established. He was now, however, aware of the cause of her anxiety, which arose from her desire to keep him away from home while she and Ryali were carrying their views into effect. The necessary witnesses not being present to prove the first marriage, Mr. HONE should remand the prisoner until Thursday. Prisoner—ln mercy to me, let me be committed at once. May I once more be permitted to speak to Ryall—perhaps it is the last time I shall ever again have the opportunity. The request being granted, Ryall went towards the bar where she \yaw confined ; upon which she burst into tears, and sought his forgiveness, saying that she was the guilty person. Ryall freely forgave her, and, as a proof of it, if she was liberated and her husband refused to take her home, he would take her under his own roof, and act towards her as a husband. The prisoner, who seemed strongly attached to Ryall and he to her, was then remanded. " You have prevaricated so grossly," said a brow-beating Counsellor to an Irish witness, "that no one will for the future believe a word you say!" " Coun se!lor, ye're a honest man !" was Paddy's ready rejoinder.
