GENTLEMEN, IT is, an d h as b een in all ages, the artful practice, of the advocates of arbitrary governments to represent the PoPular sentiment as fickle and ungrateful, making the idols of devo tion one day the objects of base execration the next. What a generous refutation of this foul slander is now passing before us. No sooner was it known that I was to be a victim of a confederated Corpora tion, foremost in its dread of municipal reform, than I received the most flattering and spontaneous assurances of support from many of your respectable body, and which have since ripened into a most numerously signed Requisition, inviting me to become a candidate to represent your important borough in Parliament. At the same moment I was honoured by a deputation from all the Vestries in the ostensive borough of Mary-la-bonne, with assurances of . Port, which left no room to apprehend the result. Thus flattered and honoured by two of the I .ergest and most in telligent constituencies of the empir:,, embracing nearly half e million of people, I was relieved - coin the perplexity w hi c h t h em splendid tok ens o f pu bli c c .:,rifidence created in my mind by the ari Uouncement of Mr, Brougham's retirement from your borough, nd I have at truce resolved to th row myse lf upon your genercas pport. Whether the King has exercised his undisputed prerogative to change his Ministers at pleasure, as the result of constitutional ad vice or Court intrigue, will be known at the proper time—at Fe sent greater objects are before us. 'When the great measure of Reform secured to the people the sacred right of choosing their Representatives, a duty of paramount obligation was imposed, to exercise this right with 4 an energy and integrity that should enable them to secure the benefits it is in tended to confer. The real question at issue, at this peculiarly interesting crisis is, not what the Court may will, or the Cabinet ' intend, but what the good sense of the nation requires; for that Which the people WILL, as the result of sober reflection, the people IsusT have, provided they are true to themselves in the choice of • tried men, whose public conduct is a security for their future inte grity. In these days of miraculous conversion the people should shun pretenders as a pestilence. Standing before you upon no other ground than my public con duct, as it is to be traced during the six Successive Parliaments I have represented the Borough of Coleloster, I feel assured that my general principles are known tq you. A Reformer, when to be so Was in every way prejudicif., I have never deviated from the even path of popular rights, In this course I shall continue the advo cate of every meuure calculated to secure the solid blessings of per thanent freedom, national prosperity, and individual happiness. Free from the restraints of party and the influence of peculiar pursuits, I have no interests which are not your own. To discover by what means the people of this great country may be best re lieved from the weight of unequal taxation—have useful institutions purified—all corruptions eradicated—to cherish whatever may ad- Vanee her moral, social, and political condition—to advocate what ever may give firmness to the resources and energies of trade and commerce—are objects which shall receive my best and continual attention, and which I firmly believe may be effected without being the partisan of extreme principles, for I regard perpetual change and immutable institutions as equally unfavourable to national peace and prosperity. Acknowledging no representative power which does not directly and spontaneously emanate from the people, I glory in being of their number ; - and, satisfied of their fitness to judge of the mea sures of Government, and of the conduct of their Representatives, shall no longer covet a scat in the Senate of my country than I feel I owe it to the free and unpurchased choice of my constituents. In the midst of my public duties, I shall rover be unmindful of My local obligations ; and residing in your immediz.te vicinity, it will afford me the sincerest pleasure to do all in my power to pro mote th e prosperity of your Borough and your individual interests. I am, Gentlemen, Your faithful and devoted servant, D. W. HARVEY.

NOTICE is hereby given , t h at on t h e rece i pt i n the Wages Department, at the Admiralty Office, Somer set Place, of the Affidavit or Certificate of Identity required from each Officer by His Majesty's Orders in Council, a Bill for the amount of the half-pay or retired-pay due will be made out in this Department, which will be payable by the Treasurer of His Ma jesty's Navy, on the following days, viz.— On the 10th and 12th January, to Masters, Surgeons, and Pursers, and their Attorneys. On the 13th, 14th, and 15th of January, to Lieutenants at Ss. and under, and their Attorneys. On the 16th and 17th January, to Lieutenants at 7s. and 6s. a day, end Chaplains, and their Attorneys. On the 20th, 21st, and 22d January, to Admirals, Lieutenant- Generals, Major- Generals, Colonels, Lieutenant-Colonels, Majors, Captains, Commanders, and Retired Commanders, and their Attorneys. Great inconvenience having been experienced by the claims of Officers, who have not ch osen t o rece i ve t h e i r h a lf -pay or retired pay on he days fixed for their Rank, being brought forward on the days appointed for the payment of half-pay and retired-pay to Offi eers of different ranks, notice is hereby given that no such claims can in future be attended to-on the days not appointed for Officers of those Ranks; but for the accommodation of such Officers, and also for the convenience of those wlirmay not have transmitted their Affidavits or Certificates sufficiently early to admit of payment on the above-mentioned doys, a Re-411 will take place on the 24th and 26th of January. After which the half-pay and relired-pay will be payable on the first and third Wednesday in every Month, except during the gene. ral payment. Officers residing in or near London, and wishing to receive their half-pay or_ retired-pay in person, are requested to deliver their Affidavits or Certificate& into the Wages Office, at the Admiralty, Somerset House, or transmit them to the Secretary of the Admi.. ralty, immediately on the expiration of each quarter ; and those employing agents, are also requested to furnish their agents with their Affidavits or Certificates, with the same dispatch ; for unless such docuinents are delivered into this Office early, delay in the pay ment must unavoidably-ensue. As it sometimes happens that Officers apply, personally, for their Half-pay, or Retired-pay, without having previously sent in their Affidavits or Certificates, as required by the usual Advertisement, any delay or inconvenience to which they might be subject by this oversight it is in the power of the Officers themselves to prevent, by an adherence to the existing Regulations. Under the authority of the Statutes relating to the pay of the Navy—besides the abovementioned modes---Officers may receive their half-pay or retired-pay in any of the following ways, viz.— Ist. By d raw i ng a Bill f or t h e amount, on a form to be trans mitted from this Office. 2d. By a Remittance Bill, or Permanent Remittance Bill, pay able to them at or in the neighbourhood of their residence, by the Collector of Customs or Excise. 3d. By Extract, or Permanent Remittance Bill, at a Dock-yard where there is an Establishment of Pay Clerks. If they wish to receive it by Bill of Exchange, they are to give notice thereof, by Letter, to the Secretary of the Admiralty, marked in the corner, " Half-pay, or Retired-pay, Accountani- General," and thereupon the proper form will be sent to them. r they wish to have it remitted to them, they must give a like notice to the Secretary of the Admiralty, marked in the same man ner, and a bill will thereupon be made out and transmitted to them. In all cases, the Officer signifying his desire of payment, is to state at the foot of his letter, his Christian and Surnames, Isis rank, and a full description of his residence. Mem.—Bills of Exchange drawn under or by virtue of the Act 11 Gco. IV., cap. 20, are not liable to the Stamp Duty. No persons residing out of his Majesty's dominions are entitled to the privileges of this Act. CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.

At a public meeting of the electors of Devonport, held in the Town Hall on Saturday last, Mr. G. R. Dawson addressed them at con siderable length, in explanation of his political principles, but his speech having given general dissatisfaction, it was instantly re solved, that this meeting having heard the Right Honourable G. R. Dawson declare his political sentiments, is of opinion that the present Government of which he is a Member, cannot and ought not to have the confidence of reformers ; and this meeting remem bering that the Right Honou r able G ent l eman h as , th roug h out hi s political life, been an able and energetic opponent of those efforts which terminated in the Brest measure securing to this borough its political freedom, cannot support his present claim to represent them who, by his votes, he has in effect declared unworthy to rank among the electors of Great Britain. " We congratulate the electors of Devonport on having been the first in the field to set an example of independence which, we doubt not, will be very generally followed up wherever the Sham Reformers are concerned. They deserve the grateful thanks of the community.'

The Committee for securing the election of the Right Honour able G. R. Dawson as one of the representatives for Devonport, feel it due to the public to state, that the meeting alluded to was convened only for the purpose of affording the Right Honourable Gentleman an opportunity of publicly declaring his political senti ments preparatory to his canvass, and not with the intention of passing any resolution whatever ; and that the resolution quoted in " The Sun" was absolutely prepared before the meeting had assem bled, and was adopted bya party (tie greater number of whom were not electors) after the Chairman had dissolved the meeting, and Mr. Dawson and his friends had retired. The eloquent address of the Right Honourable Gentleman—so far from having " given general dissatisfaction," was received with considerable applause. It has been printed, and is eagerly sought after by the electors, who are so highly satisfied with the manly and constitutional sentiments it contains, that the result of two days' canvass leaves no doubt of Mr. Dawson's triumphant success.

ABelief in the existence of the fountain of youth, from which those who bathed in its waters gained a pristine energy, was among the speculations of the 15th century ; it will, however, serve as no inapt type of the revivifying powers of art and medicine. Those who, early victims to a morbid imagination, have sought fatally to anticipate the purposes of nature, and have consequently lapsed into a state which brings with it weakened ca pabilities and clouded hopes, may by timely application to profes sional treatment, regain those first, noblest, and best of powers that have been compromised by the criminal propensities of "guilty soli tude," the progress of which is marked by the '° lymphatica sum nia' ofPliny, attended with bodily weakness and mental apathy. We may indulge a natural exultation in referring to our daily cor respondence with grateful and convalescent patients, not confined to our own country, but 'diffused over the whole world. For twenty five years has our peculiar treatment in cases of Nervous Debility proved eminently successful, and we have hitherto resisted the earnest solicitations of our patients to publish their cases in a public address : the following, however, has been so urgently pressed upon us by a medical friend, that we have yielded to an importunity suf ficiently excusable by the gratitude it evinces : " Dear Sirs-31y fondest hopes are realized! Accept my most neartfelt thanks ; words are inadequate to express my unbounded gratitude. May you long live to reap the rich reward of your labours in the treatment of that class of diseases which have hitherto baffled the skill of your medical brethren. " Nov. 1832."

XVII, LINCOLN AND LINCOLNSHIRE NEWPAPERS. ON FRIDAY, the Second day of January, 1835, will be published No. I. of th e LINCOLN GAZETTE, or the Lincolnshire Farmer's Advocate and Advertiser (with which the Stamford News will be incorporated), at the Office, in the City of Lincoln, and may be had from any Bookseller or Newsvender in the Kingdom. This Journal is intended to be a real Lincolnshire Newspaper, devoted to the interests of the County of Lincoln, and published in the Capital Town. At present the great division of Lindsey must send its intelligence and advertisements to a distance, from some parts, of nearly 100 miles, to Stamford,a town belonging almost as much to Northampton as to Lincoln, at a great sacrifice of time, expense, and convenience. Many Gentlemen deeply interested in the prosperity and honour of the County, think that Lincolnshire can support a Newspaper of i ts ow n. They think, too, that the people of Lincolnshire ought to have an organ of their opinions and advocate of their interests in their own County Town. Without such a journal as the LIN COLN GAZETTE proposes to be, the County would in a short time be left to two Newspapers, one of which possesses no original articles upon the momentous matters that affect the County and Country, and the other, being notoriously the organ of a nearly an nihilated faction, the leaders of which build their hopes of return to arbitrary power and profligate expenditure, upon the blunders of their opponents, or the ignorant precipitancy of those whom ultra politicians may cajole. It is thought that this great county ought not to be without a Newspaper, avoiding these extremes, but devoted to the advance ment of liberal principles, the investigation of public measures, the enforcement of truth, justice, and the common good ; the especial advocate of the Agriculturist, the determined defender of those great principles upon which the Magna Charta o f our lib erty i s built, the supporter of such eventual changes and reforms as ought to be consequent upon the increasing intelligence of the people, yet th e equally determined opponent of fo o li s h or f ac ti ous t h eories, dvuitnddrsi a stepsi p to eriod experiments, and mea s u res ca l cu l a t e d to produce con- or revolution, instead o f l ea di ng b y sa f e and temperate the greatest good o f th e greatest num b er. " Never exist when th e A gr i cu l tura l i nterest required bold and unripe intrepld advocates more than the present. Theories are maintained by active, subtle, and concentrated bodies, which, if adopted, would inevitably ruin the farmer, and with him all those inhabitants of towns dependant upon his custom for their chief means of subsist ence—theories which would throw a vast proportion of the laud of England into that state of bog, mor ass , an d sterility, from which it has been reclaimed at an immen se expend i ture of labour and ca pital—theories which would convert the yet healthy and compara tively moral peasantry of the rural districts into the izimoral, and sickly inmates of vast factories in squalid, crowded neighlythzr hoods, and the whole for the lottery-like possibility of increasing beyond other nations in manufacturing, an advantage, which when gained, as experience teaches us, very soon makes itself wings and flies away. The LINCOLN GAZETTE will be most especially the farmer's advocate. It will publish his wrongs and assert his rights, and while it calls upon the legislature to listen to his claims, it will be equally strenuous in enforcing the reduction of rents, the non-era sion of the corn laws, and the abolition or commutation of tithes. Before however stating what it will do, it may be as well to state what it will not do. First. It will not lend itself to any party, faction, or exclusive interest in politics; it will not advocate unsafe or merely experi mental and hazardous changes ; on the other hand, it will not plead antiquity," "prescription," " conservatism," or any other solemn fallacy to sanction and perpetuate cbusfs, corruptions, and crafty usurpations ;_in ompt, at twv‘o, which asch common politics,mmo n s it e ns ewi willdefend no al laugh, t l t patriot ismaotrfor the consequences of which experience will not weep. Secondly. In promoting the reformation of what may be wrong in our ecclesiastical institutions, it will not attack Christianity itself .; it Will indulge in no heartless sneers or hollow sarcasms upon a reli gion too simple for the pseudo philosopher, too severe for the har dened profligat e ; it will not offend any Christian's eye when it may happen to point out the weak or worthless parts of systems or esta blishments. Thirdly. In maintaining its opinions it will indulge in no perso nalities; those whose diseased minds induce them to read news papers wherein the private lives of their political opponents may be maligned or ridiculed, will find no food for their spleen in the LINCOLN GAZETTE. Having stated what it will not do, let us now see what it will do. First. Its politics will be liberal supporting all practical reforms, yet open to every party without fear, fee, or favour. Secondly. It will be especially the Farmers' Paper, fighting his battles, openin g his eyes to the scandalous evasions of the Corn Laws, and not allowing him to be blindfolded and ruined for the furtkerane• of fancied improvements or experiments in other in terests. Thirdly. Published in the heart of the County, it will mo re 'speedily speedily tha n could ever yet be effected, receive send back e local intelligence, from and to every village and hamlet in the Shire. Fourthly. Arrangements have been made with the Editor of " The- Sun" and other papers, to get expresses of every event of importance, so that such intelligence may be published 24 hours before its usual arrival. Fifthly. Par tie::is accounts of all great Markets will be received by express fro:„ Sixthly% It w il l have two Editions, one to suit the north :Jail London, Manchester, Leed s , Li verpoo l , Ece. and tlto other the south Mail, so that it can give the latest news to the whole of its readers. Seventhly. It will be supported by Shareholders, who live in cientlevery parr tlar of the County, and who ha ve su b scr ib e d a Capital suffi ylarge to make it the most complete Newspaper ever pub lished in Lincolnshire. Eighthly. As it is probable that the Duty on Newspapers will be one repealed . next Session, its price will be imm e di a t e l y re d uce d at least alf Orders and. Advertisements received by R. Darker, 33, Flect street ; Newton and Co , Warwick-squar e ; arid Jos.
