SPIRIT OF TIIF. PUBLIC JOURNALS. t is to he presumed that we shall hear no more, from some of the Holy Alliance Ministers at least, in the shape of remonstrance against any assumed _interposition of Eng land on behalf of Donna Maria. .The : intercepted corres pondence which we publ:shed on Saturday displayed, in tolerably glaring co'oura, the neutral conduct of a certain Marshal, who, when he last showed himself.off the bar haur of Lisbon, was chased an ay ignominiously from the coast. That correspondence, though not so discreditable to M. Neumann, who only acted ender the orders of his Court,' as to Marshal the Viscount Beresferd, who set hi. , own Sovereign and Government at defiance, in actively serving a foreign' criminal, condemned by the Britisi Court and n ,tion as a flagitious rebel, traitor, and usurper, proved the direct countenance afforded by Aus tria, while certain passsgee did that of the Spanish Mi nister, to the expedition of Miguelite officers about to set sail for Oporto. The portion of intercepted correspon dence which we published yesterday strengthens. come links in the chain of evidence previously esta blished, and adds several others. It represents the Ministers of the Allied Courts (" the great Powers") favourable to Miguel, as requiring copies of all the rebel correspondence from Portugal, addressed to the agent of the Usurper at Madrid, to serve as grounds of charge against England for the favour shown by her to his enemies. It represents M. Zea 4 , penetrated by the most profound sorrow fur the loss of Miguel's fleet," and " highly irritated at the conduct of the English," the same M. Zea declaring that it was now more than ever necessary for all to labour in defence of the just cause," which just cause he explains to mean the support of Don Miguel's usurped dominion, the overthrow of which was to render Portugal " the victim of all the revolutionists of Europe." The correspondence under the signature of Gomez, the Miguelite agent at the Court of Ferdinand, further describes the writer himself as com posing Miguelite articles for the Madrid Gazette, by the express authority and desire of the Spanish Minister 'ea! The said M. Zea, therefore, we do suppose, will have the modesty to refrain from any future re monstrances to the British Governmedt, in respect of its non-nentrali!y. But a curious part of this correspon dence is the letter of a M. Reynet Dupre, one of the officers engaged to serve under Marshal Bourmont, addressed to the latter from London. If the letter in question he curious on its own account, it has been made little less so by the unwitting blunder of an honest printer of our own, who, by misprinting " Powers" for " Gowers," has led many worthy people to imagine that the steam-vessel called the United Kingdom was the joint property of all the Holy Alliance Courts—an error which we lament to see that a respectable and grave contemporary of last night bas adopted, and expended thereon an exceedingly valuable article. The author of the letter which has experienced the above casualty, goes on to describe his own position and feelings. lie states, that when, after many difficulties, the steam-vessels were all ready for sailing, the news of the destruction of Miguel's fleet came upon him and his comrades like " a clap of thunder," and poor Admiral Elliot was forced to fid up his flag—the grod ship " Contingency," on which he had prepared to hoist it, having foundered and gone to the bottom. The place fixed upon for M. Dupre, Iv., to land, appears from his account to have been Vigo, that very Spanish port from which Ssrtorius had been officially expelled, by orders of M. Zea Bermudez, and under threats of inhospi table violence. Then the Spanish Government was to he 4 4 secretly" informed of this propitious advent, that the authorities of the upright Ferdinand might " not only tolerate but protect" it. Upon the whole, there might be got up a "mighty pretty quarrel" with the wretched Ferdinand nut of the palpable materials furnished by the friends and proteges of his favourite, or rather reigning, Minister. But it is not worth our while : the game ap pears to be up with Miguel. The young Queen is about to he acknowl.dged by the Government of Great Britain, and of course by that of France; and it gives us much attisfaction to find that the sinister reports which have been circulated with regard to Pedro's views, have sprung no less from the perverse folly of those who may be termed the Portuguese Radicals, than from the subtle and cunning malignity of the partisans of Miguel. The re speetable authority whence we derive that letter assures us that the intentions of Don Pedro are noble, generous, ten der, and paternal, towards his daughter and her rights— that he is ambitious only " of the glory of restoring his daughter's thron6and to give back to the country which gave Li:n birth its ancient liberties and its ancient splen dour." We hope a little more.—Times. The Bank Charter Bill was read a third time last night by a majority of 95 to 23, or 72. A motion was made by Mr. Cobbett, and seconded by Mr. Clay, for reading the Bill a third time that day six months. The ground taken by Mr. Cobbett was, that the legal tender would have the effect of lessening the value of money and raising prices. Assuming this point, he proceeded to enumerate the mischievous consequences which would be the rseult of depreciation. Mr. Clay thought also, that the legal tender would have the effect of limiting the convertibility of paper into gold. He believed there was a large majority of persons, both in that house and out of it, who did not consider the .bargain an advan tageous one to the country ; but he would not have Beeended the amendnieet had he not found that the great corporation of the Bank were dissatisfied with the mea sure. This led the lion. Gentleman to review the recent proceedings at the Bank meetings, and the question as to the right of establishing Banks within sixty.five miles of the metropolis. The Bank bad said that they had submitted to the ratification of the bargain for the public good ; and he wished to relieve them from all such disinterested care and concern for the public interests. The Bank have found that they overdid the matter when they iuveighed so bitterly against the Government. The two gentle men—Mr. S. Loyd, and Mr. J. A. Smith---who allowed themselves in the heat of debate to use some rather strong language in speaking of Lord Althorp at the Tues day meeting, had the manliness to express their regret at the Friday meeting. The Bank, finding that their threats produced a contrary effect to that which they intended, and that the public were by no means indisposed to take them at their word, backed out of their strong language as fast as possible. They have done wisely ; for, as Mr. Clay says, there is a strong party in the country which would not have been sorry at being furnished with a pretext for quarrelling with them. Mr. Clay very properly termed the conduct of the Bank proprietors at the meetings al luded to coquetry. As to the legal tender having any effect on prices, while the Bank is not protected from paying in gold, we bold the idea to be quite visionary. In all Scotland a guinea is never seen, but yet prices are not higher than those in England ; because, were paper to be issued in excers, in Scotland, the exchange with Lrui don would fall, and bills on London would instantly be demanded, to provide for which would occasion a heavy loss to the Scotch banks. Lord Althorp observed, that "he did not think that, while the hank note was converti ble into gold at the Bank, it could effect a depreciation in the currency. Ile conceived that a general rise In prices, would undoubtedly follow upon a general de preciation of the currency—for a depreciation of the cur rency could not take place wi.leiut a general rise in the price of commodities—but a demand would immediately be made for gold ut the Bank, which would immediately bring things to their former level." We are astonished that this position should ever have been called in question. Can any one suppose that if there should be an over-issue of paper, and it became profitable to export gold, any difficulty would be felt in a country like England, in which contmunicatioa is so easy, in conveying bank-notes to the places where they might he exchanged ? It had been absurdly enough supposed by Mr. Cobbett, that the ex changes would not regulate the currency, and he referred to 1825 and 1826 as a proof of that proposition, for the state of the exchanges did not put a stop to the issues. But Lord Althorp maintained, " that if the exchanges bad been in proper operation in 1825, the calamities of that year would never have occurred. But it ought to be re collected that there having been a bargain that year with the Bank to pay up the .14 per cents., they were com pelled to increase their issues at the very time they ought to have contracted them. If, therefore, the expe rience of these years were quoted, the conclusion to be drawn from them would not be right." The question as to the right of monopoly at present enjoyed by the Bank in the metropolis, and within 65 miles of it, having figured largely in the proceedings of t h e meeting of Bank proprietors, was naturally brought under discussion last night. Lord Althorp said he could state it a 4 his own opinion—and in that opinion be was joined by his Hon. and Learned Friend the Solicitor- General —that any number of parties might carry on business as a Banking Company notwithstanding the present Charter. His Lordship admitted that he would have been guilty of a breach of faith towards the Bank, if the clause in the Bi ll took a:rvay any right which the Bank previously had. The opinions of Sir James Scar- 1 l e tt and Sir Edward Sugden were alluded to by his Lord.l ship. They had led him (he said) to examine carefully the Acts of Parliament which conferred the right on the' i Bank. The result of the examination was a firm convic-! ton that the clause would not deprive the Bank of any of the privileges now possessed by it. The Attorney and: Solicitor-General both concurred in the view taken byl Lord Althorp. The Solicitor-General said, the morel he considered the question, the inure fully he was convinced that the establishment of a Bank of more than six persona merely for the purpose of deposi t had never been prohild'ed. The whole hi n g es on whether the prohibition extends by the existing law to hanks of issue merely (which it is said were the only hanks understood at the time of the prohibition) or to banks of deposit as well as banks of issue. However, were there anything in the opinions of Sir James Searlett tnd Sir Edward Sitgden (and to obtain a favourable opi nion from lawyers much depends on the case that is laid before them) it is proper that the doubt should be resolved in favour of the public, and against monopoly. Without Presuming to question the qualifications of Sir James Searlett and Sir Edward Sug.len, it must be observed that the responsibility of the crown lawyers was greater. The other lawyers may shelter themselves behind thecae laid before them ; but the Crown lawyers must take nothing for granted. Upon the whole, we believe the country will be satisfied with the arrangement with the Rank. The clause on the subject of the monopoly will he peculiarly satisfactory. We anticipate much good from it. Some of the private bankers naturally feel a little alarmed at the consequences it may have ; for no man, however liberal his principles, wishes to have his own business interfered with.—Morning Chronicle. HOUSE OF LORDS-JUDGMENTS. Arc. 19. MIREHOUSE AND ANOTHER V. RENNELL. This case, which was argued before Lord LYNnHunsT, when he held the Great Sea!, and the Judges, now came before the House for final decision. . . The case was brought by writ of error upon a judgment of the Court of King's Bench. The declaration filed by the defendant in error stated that the Rev. W. Dodwell, D.D., of the late Prebend or Canon of South Grantham, was seised in 1775 of that prebend, with its appurte nances (to which prebend or canonry the advowson of \Veiling belongs), in his demesne, as of fee in right of the said prebend ; that being so seised he inducted a fit person, his son, to the rectory of Welby, and on his death the Rev. Robert Price was inducted to the same; that on the death of the latter the late Rev. Thomas Rennell was lawfully inducted Prebendary; that on the Ist of June, 1824, the Rev. W. Dodwell died, and the rectory of Welby, as an appurtenance of the rebend, became vacant, and the presentation of right belonged to the Rev. T. Ren nell ; that after the church had thus become vacant, and before any person had been presented to the sa me, the Rev. Mr. Rennell died intestate, viz., on the 30th of June, 1824; that the defendant in error duly administered, claiming also the right of presentation ; and that the then Bishop of Lincoln appointed one of the plaintiffs in error, the Rev. T. H. Mirehouse, to the said prebend. To this action the usual plea of declaimer was filed, to which plea the plaintiff below demurred, and the case was argued in Hilary Term, 1825, before the Court of Common Pleas. That Court was of opinion that Mrs. Rennell was not en titled to present to the vacant rectory, aad accordingly gave judgment against her. The case was then removed to the King's Bench by writ of error, and the majority of the Judges of the last-named Court were of opinion that she was entitled, as administratrix to her husband, to pre sent to the rectory, and therefore the judgment of the Common Pleas was reversed. Lord Tenterden, however, dissented from the rest of the Court in that judgment. The plaintiffs in error brought the case as already intimated, seeking to have the latter judgment reversed. Judgment affirmed. SIR JOHN J. DILLON v. SIR W3I, PARKER. Lord LYNDHURST said this was the case of an appeal from a decision of Lord Chancellor Eldon, which decision affirmed a previous judgment at the Rolls, by Sir Thomas Plummer, when he presided over that Court. The ques tion related to certain property that formed the subject of a settlement of Sir Henry John Parker, so long back as 1741. There was no question whatever as to the title to that property, but only as to an equitable right to the property in question, arising out of circumstances which took place several years ago, so far hack as 1769 and 1771, which gave, it was insisted, to the present appellant an equitable right sufficient to control his legal right which Sir Wm. possessed. The question would be, whether their Lordships were of opinion that such a satisfactory case of equity had been made out which ought to induce their Lordships to give judgment in favour of that equitable right. Judgment affirmed without costs. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.-LANCASTEA, Au*. 17 ARANSON V. SMITH. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a surgeon dentist at Manchester, to recover from the defendant, a publican at Stockport, the sum of 9/. 1 Os, the cost of several artificial teeth supplied to the defendant's wife. In May list the wife of the defendant having lost most of her teeth, was recommended by a Mr. Sleddon to apply to the plaintiff, who, he said, was a very scientific man. The plaintiff was accordingly applied to. He took the model of the lady's mouth, and made the teeth, but when he had done so the defendant refused to have the teeth, or to pay for them, and they were consequently left on the plaintiff's bands. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICR inquired of the Learned Counsel if the plaintiff could not sell them to any body else? Mr. WrowrmAN—ND, Ln:11, the teeth are made to measure, and it is very diaioult to find one lady's month exactly the same size as another.—( Laughter. ) Verdict for the plaintiff, damages 91. 10s. Mr. WILLIAMS, under these circumstances, claimed the teeth, which were given to him, and he immediately handed them over to his client. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. EXTENSIVE Pr.uNDEa or TEA.—Two men, named Joseph Stone and Robert Collins, have been for some days under examination, charged with having received a quantity of tea, knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. John Nicholson, of Fenchurch-street, tea-dealer, having heard that teas of good quality were to be had in abundance at the houses of several retail dealers at a suspiciously cheap rate, he exercised more than usual vigilance in his own establishment, and found that he had been robbed to a considerable extent. Upon examining the books he missed a chest, and he immediately ques tioned a very young man, one of his clerks, upon the sub ject. The lad immediately confessed that he had stolen the chest, as well as several others, to supply himself with money. Mr. Nicholson's clerk then stepped forward, and made a voluntary confession. On the 3d or 4th of August be was introduced to Collins by his cousin, and took to him a chest of Congou tea, at 3a. 9d. a pound. He believed Collins to be a marine store dealer, and Stone had been a tea dealer. Collins asked him how he could sell it so low, and he replied that it was smuggled, and that he had interest at the Excise Office to get a permit. He was also introduced to Stone, who purchased of him at different times eight chests of tea. lie kept the money he received for the tea. At last the robbery was found out. A chest was missed, and that led to the detection of the rest. The first chest he sold to Stone was at 3s. 9d. a pound, and it was permitted. The other chests he sold to Stone were permitted to other parties. He gave Stone, as well as Collins, to understand that the tea was smuggled. Some of the tea was sold by Stone to a Mr. Dowling. Mr. Dowling admitted that Stone had sold tea to him. Mr. Clarksoo begged to know in what character the clerk to the prosecutor was to appear on the occasion ? The LORD MA-vort said he had determined to admit the young man as a witness. The prisoners were held to bail. FISHING EXTRAORDINAR —On thernorn ing of Thursday se'nnight, while an individual, belonging to Dunblane, was strolling on the, hanks of the Allan in the vicinity of the bridge, he- observed a fine grilse quietly lodged directly under him, along the side of a shelving rock which projected from the spot whereon he stood, over the surface of the /inn. No sooner did he observe the fiairthan " his conceptions for secur in g i t were very sanguine." Accordingly he ran home for the necessary tackle, which consisted of little more than an iron oledi; barbed, and having a long handle and which bad, no doubt, in more favourable times, been of signal service, " about the Martinmas time," to a long line of sporting progenitors. Our sportsman having speedily returned, the grilse was soon cleeked by the gills, but, to his utter amazement, Le found his right to the prize disputed by a new sportsman, who seized grilse, book, and all, and dragged both the prize and prize holder, by a sudden jerk, into the middle of the pool. And, certes, but for the prompt attention of an amateur, who most luckily pro ' ceeded to the spot to witness the capture of the grilse, the poor man lied been drowned. The cause of the tur moil arose from a large otter having, as well as our angler, laid longing eyes upon the grilse, and at the same moment that the one laid hold of the finny prey with his barbed spear, the other, springing from the bottom of the pool, which is upwards of 10 feet deep, laid hold of it with his no less formidable teeth, and as described, sent our piscatory hero sprawling into the middle of the :rater, leaving him minus grilse and sleek --thinking himself very lucky in getting off with life:. —Stirling Journal and Advertiser. REDUCTION OF TAXATION. It gives us satisfaction to find that the useful speech of Mr. Spring Rice, delivered on the 16th ult., in vindica• tion of the financial measures of the Whig Government, has been published in the form of a cheap and very port able pamphlet. It affords the best answer yet produced to the question—what reduction has the present Ministry effected? To quote largely from a speech of financial and arithmetical detail would he unsuitable to the taste of most people. We therefore confine ourselves to a few of the concluding passages : " Before I proceed further, I must again remind the House that we have made these reductions on an expendi ture—capable of economical review—of 15,000,00 01 . ; and that there has been, as I have before stated, a redt:c• tion effected to the extent of 3,000,0001. I cannot, how ever, conclude, in justice to the subject, without fixing the attentio❑ of the House upon the fact, that every fraction of these reductions, and indeed somewhat more than their whole amount, has been applied to the diminution of the taxation of the people of England. There has been no part of it kept hack for the purpose of bolstering up an artificial system of finance or a sham sinking fund ; nor, as it appears to me, has it been kept up for any other pur pose with which gentlemen have a right to quarrel. The reduction in the amount of the expenditure may be said, in round numbers, to amount to 3,000,000/. The whole of that gum, I repeat, and something more, has been applied to the reduction of the taxation of the country. here I must be permitted to say that the Hon. Member for the city of Dublin (Mr. Ruthven) and other Hon Gentlemen, in considering these questions, would do well to look to the bright as well as to the dark side of the picture, rather than exclusively to press on public attention, night after night, those parts only of every subject which are calcu lated to excite dissatisfaction and discontent. It is not acting justly towards the public, the Government, or this House, thus to exclude all the more cheering and gratify ing considerations, stating, and allowing it to be stated and repeated without contradiction, that nothing has been done, when, in point of fact, the vast reductions to which 1 have taken the liberty of adverting, have already been achieved. I put it to those gentlemen who have sat in this House in former Parliaments, if they had been told, when we took office in November, 1830, that in the course of two ses sions reductions to the extent of 3,000,000/. could have been effected, and that a corresponding amount of taxation could have been reduced without endangering the public credit, whether they must not have admitted that although such would he a consummation devoutly to be wished,' yet that it was one infinitely exceeding all their hopes and expectations. [Here Mr. Hume entered the house.] " Mr. SPRING rejoice that nay Hon. Friend is at length come to his place. I have appealed to my Hon. Friend's authority in his absence; I can assure him that I did so with all due respect ; and that my argument has not illustrated the French proverb,that the absent are always considered in the wrong ; indeed, it is almost in dispensably necessary to appeal to his authority, when a question of economy is brought under consideration. The House knows that in the absence of my Hon. Friend I have given the fullest credit to the exertions he has made. In his absence I paid him the highest possible tribute of approval, by erecting him into an actual standard of value, by which I endeavoured to estimate the value of the public services of nay friends. I took my Hon. Friend's state ment in 1821 as the terminus a quo from which all my reasonings were to spring. I now repeat my argument that he may contradict me if lam in error. In a speech which the Hon. Gentleman made in June, 1821, he de tailed the various reductions which he thought practicable, Those reductions amounted to 3,238,0001., which would have reduced the expenditure to 18,849,140/. The ex penditure of the country has now been reduced below the amount which my Hon. Friend took as the measure of his economy. In his speech the Hon. Gentleman spoke of a reduction in the expenses of collecting the revenue ; in these expenses reductions of more than half a million had been effected. If, then, the Hon. Member for Middlesex wishes to act justly by his Majesty's Government, and by this House, he will not argue (as some Hon. Gentlemen have done), and he must not make statements, as if eve had forgotten our economical pledges. " One observation I omitted to make during the ab eence of my Hon. Friend. In those days my Hon. Friend was Member for Montrose. I very much rejoice to see my Hon. Friend represent the county of Middlesex, although I cannot help thinking that, when he was the Member for Montrose, his arguments were, in some re spects, founded on better reasoning and sounder principles of political economy. My Hon. Friend then said, that if the reductions for which we contended could he carried into effect, he should recommend—what will the House think ?—the repeal of the house and window tax, the stamp on newspapers, or some of those other taxes of which be now complains? No, Sir, the Hon. Gentleman was then a good political economist, and the reductions in taxa:ion which he wished at that time to effect, were re ductions in the taxes on soap, candles, leather, and salt. Now, Sir, I say that, on that occasion, my Hon. Friend contended for the sound principles of taxation, because he recommended a reduction in taxes which were the most expensive in their collection, which operated as restraints on trade, and which pressed most severely upon the poorer classes, and on the productive industry of the country. " A paper fo: which I moved a few months ego, show ing the amount of taxes repealed within the list 19 years, h a been put, for some time past, in circulation. The abstract is as follows: .- - AMOUNT OF TAXES REPEALED, EXPIRED, OR REDUCED ritom 1814 TO 1832. Gross. Net.

Of this sum I proceed to state the amount of reduction made by my Noble Friend beside me:--. RELIEF FROM TAXATION PROPOSED IN 1831 AND 1832.

MEETING IN SUPPORT OP THE POLISH EXILES IN SWITZERLAND. A Public Meeting was held yesterday evening, at Exeter Hall, for the purpose of appealing to the humane of all classes of society for pecuniary assistance in behalf of the brave, oppressed, and suffering Poles, who fled to Swit zerland at the close of their late renewed struggle for the recovery of the liberties of their country, rather than submit to the yoke of the Russian Despot. Besides the Noble Chairman, Lord Dudley Stuart, we noticed among the numerous company on the platform, the following gentlemen :--Lord Morpeth, Colonel Lei cester Stanhope, Mr. Buckingham, M.P., Mr. Hume, M.P., Mr. H. 13ulwer, M.P., Mr. Frederick Mansell, Mr. Charles Attwood, Mr. The!wall, the Rev. Dr. Wade, Count Anast mins Dunin, a Polish Officer, Monsieur Julian, a native of France, Mr. Arnold, &c. &c. Two Polish standards, composed of whit e a nd crimson, . . were unfurled on the platform, the one exhibiting the motto For our and your liberty," and on the other was the Polish E igle, surmounted by a Crown. On the motion of Mr. Hums, Lord DUDLEY STUART took the chair. The object of the present meeting was to assist the Poles now remaining in Switzerland-470 in number, all of them gentlemen by birth and education, with the exception of 15, who were private soldiers. When these brave men went into the c triton of Berne, from France, they were received by the p.'ople of that land of freedom with all the hospitality they had in their power to bestow.—(Applause.) The Diet of Switzerland, however, did not second the patriotic in habitants of Berne, and they were reduced to see those unfortunate men suffering from want. Those brave men, if they would stoop to swear allegiance to a tyrant whom they abhor, to a tyrant who has sacrificed every thing that they held dear, might return to their country, and to their rank as officers, &c. ; but they nobly declined to do so, and it is because they refuse to swear allegiance to him, and to renounce a country to which they are proud to be long, that they are now in exile, and appealing to the charity of the British nation.—(Loud cheering, and cries of " Bravo !") Whatever offers may be made to a Pole, be will be satisfied with nothing short of the restoration of his country to her freedom.—(Cheers.) Numbers of those brave men, he (the Hon. Chairman) was sorry to say, were at this moment, not only in want of the necessaries of life, but, unfortuirttely, of raiment to cover them. The Noble Chairman then read a series of letters respecting the Poles who were compelled to leave France, and who fled into Switzerland for shelter, and having illustrated, said be was sure he need not say more in their behalf. His Lordship then resumed his seat amidst loud cheers. Lord Monrz•rs could assure the meeting that, in pro• per time and place he would not fail to brand the op pressors of Poland in all the colours of their most flagrant conduct.--(Applause.) He would not now go into the conduct of the French Government, which made those unhappy men quit France, and go into Switzerland ; it was enough for him, in their present situation, that the Poles are brave and virtuous men, and that they are dis tressed.—(Cneers.) It it were not melancholy, it would be an interesting part of history to see those brave men seek shelter in the land which at one time formed the cradle of liberty—(Cheers)—to see the descendants of Sobieski fly to the land which holds Cie ashes of William Tell.—(Cheers.) Russia may sit upon her icy throne, and with her iron threat endeavour to keep down the spirit of the Poles ; but Pol ind, he would say, will again, despite those base threats, become a nation.— (Cheers.) Poland appeals in the present instance not to the vengeance, but to the charity of Great Britain.— (Cheers.) Trusting that that appeal would not be made in vain, his Lordship concluded by moving the following resolution : _ _ _ " That this meeting has heard with feelings of the deepest sympathy the touching appeals of the Polish refugees in Switzerland, and their countrymen in Paris, to the friendship and generosity of the British nation." Mr. Hintz seconded the resolution, advocated the cause of charity in favcur of the brave Poles, and re marked that we lived in times when the political horizon was obscured ; but as the sun of freedom rose, those clouds would disappear before it.—(Cheers.) There were atrocities in the conduct of Russia, which in time would bring down the vengeance of Heaven on their enactors.—(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Hume) looked to Great Britain and to her Councils, to denounce the base conduct of the Autocrat ; and to tell him that he cannot much longer pursue his iniquitous cruelties with impunity --(Hear, hear)—and he hoped, through the alliance of France and England, that Poland would again be regene rated.—(Loud cheers.) He hoped also through that pow erful engine—the British Pleas—that the autocrat would be made sensible of the base and dangerous course which he is pursuing.—(Renewed cheers.) Let not any man sup pose that England will not be a party to the regenera tion of Poland.—(Enthusiastic cheers.) Yes, England, pledged through her Parliament, to save to Poland her institutions, her laws, and her language, will, when she shall be is a condition, redeem that pledge—(Loud cheers.) While, then, he (Mr. Hume) asked the charity of the people of England, be hoped, as an Englishman, that he might call upon the meeting to express its indig nation at the brutal and abhorred conduct of the Russian Autocrat.—(Cheers.) Mr. DUFFEY, a member of the Metropolitan Union of the Working Classes, addressed the meeting at considerable length in support of the resolution, and by censuring the conduct, in this affair, of the British Government; and by observing, that the cause of the Poles is the cause of the people of Europe, and of the working classes of this country; and remarked that " hereditary bondsmen to be free, themselves must strike the blow."—(Cheers.) Mr. H. BULWER. hoped, with the last speaker, that the cause of Poland would be the cause of the working classes—of the aristocracy—and t.f the people in general. —(Year, hear.) He would tell that gentleman that there were men in the House of Commons at present, who felt deeply for the situation of the Poles—(Hear, hear)—and who cared not one straw for the Government of this coun try (to whose conduct he had alluded), nor for the Go vernment of any other country which attends not to the Just interests of the people.—(Cheers.) He could not but say that it was a disgrace to the Government of this country that the nationality of Poland had been destroyed. —(Hear, hear.) He thought there were other and better means of fighting the battle of freedom than by the sword, namely—by intelligence, public opinion, and the expres sion of noble and exalted feelings ; and he called upon his countrymen now, while the Northern Sovereigns were as sembling at Toplits, to meet together, and let them know, that their proceedings and their injustice were being watched by the people of England and France, who were also ready to relieve the victims of their oppression.—(Cheers.) The Hon. Gentleman concluded by moving— " That this meeting cheerfully and fervently respond to the prayer of Poland for relief of her noble-blooded and high-minde dpatriots, who have sacrificed their all to main tain their liberty and national existence." Mr BUCKINGHAM, M.P., seconded the resolution. Who that had read the account given of the noble defence of Warsaw, would not have been proud to have had a eon or a brother fighting there ?—(Cheers.) Who did not admire the bravery of the Polish women, as evinced on the same occasion ?—(Cheers.) They admired the valour of the three hundred Greeks under Leonidas. Those brave men are dead and gone ; but the Poles (not less brave) still live.—(Cheers.) Let the meeting, then, extend their sympathies and succour to the gallant Poles. Such a meeting as this, consisting of more than 2,000 in dividuals, debating and peeing resolutions, could not he without its effect ; its proceedings would be borne on the wings of the press throughout the civilized world, and would be translated into the language of the French, read at Vienna, discussed at Constantinople, and penetrate the recesses of the tyrants themselves, until they would be shamed down to hold out the olive branch—(Long and continued cheering)—and he (Ilr. Buckingham) hoped that be should not go down to the grave until he saw Poland, by the force of public opinion, and of united in telligence, restored to her former position of an independent nation.—(Cheers.) Mr. F. MANsELL, the barrister, in a very animated speech, which was much applauded, supported the reso lution. Before putting the resolution , the NOBLE CHAIRMAN begged to draw the attention of the meeting to a letter which he bad received from Mrs. Sutherland, of Lisson Grove, with an enclosure of 501. for the poor Poles.— (Immense cheering.) This, to the honour of that phi lanthropic and charitable lady , was her second subserip n--1 Renewed cheers)—and he hoped her noble conduct d ( be imitated all who had the power, th roug h out t h e c ountry--( , hear.)

He (th e R uss i an Autocrat) had taken the young Poles, wi t h treac h erous ,leaign, from their parental schools , and sent them to school among the snows and deserts of Sib er i a ; an d t o a tt e mpt to palliate such a crime, he (M r. A ttwoo d) cou ld n ot but say, was, in itself, a crime o f great magn i tu d e . a .--(Hear, hear.) Having made some very lengthened o . ,ervatione, Mr. Attwood concluded by moving "That subscription be raised immediately for the Polish Exiles ; " which he most fervently hoped would be as general as desirable and deserving.—( Hear, hear.) The Rev. Dr. WADE seconded the resolution. He held in his hand a placard, which, when Prince De Borgo was in this country, his (Dr. Wade's) friend, Dr. Epps, caused to he posted throughout the metropolis, with these words, " Tell your master that Britons burn with indig nation at the grievous oppression of the Poles."—(Loud cheers.) He (Dr. Wade) called upon his country to reiterate the sentiment until justice should be done to injured Poland.—(Cheers, and loud cries of "Hear.") Mr. THELWALL moved the next resolution. There was a struggle now going on between intellect and oppres sion. Poland, he was sorry to say, bad fallen ;he would not go so far as to prophecy that she would be regenerated as a kingdom ; but he could not conclude without hoping most fervently that the time would come when her chains would he turned into arms, and used to crush the heads of her foul tnd iniquitous oppressors.--(lmmense and long continued cheering.) Having eulogised the generous conduct of the brave and noble people of Switzerland, he concluded by moving, " That the profoundest respect, gratitude, and admiration of this assembly, are due to the brave and generous Swiss people, who have afforded refuge to the persecuted martyrs of Polish liberty ; and this meeting implores the free Helvetic nation, safe only itself in the exercise of kindred valour, still to watch over and protect their noble guests."—(Cheers.) Colonel LEICESTER STANHOPE, in seconding the resolution, referred to the Constitution given to Poland by the late Emperor Alexander, and a very fair Constitu tion he observed it was, had he not unfortunately sent his brother Constantine to thwart his intentions. After Alexander, came the Emperor Nicholas; and he (Colonel Stanhope) would read the oath which was taken by that Monarch as King of Poland, to observe the Conqitution alluded to, namely, on the 25th of December, 1825, he (Nicholas) swore as follows :—" Poles ! We have already declared that it is our unchangeable desire that our Go vernment should be a continuation of that of the Emperor Alexander, of glorious memory; and, consequently, de clare, that the institutions he gave you shall remain un altered ; therefore we promise and swear, before God, that we will observe those institutions." That was the oath which the King of Poland had taken, and he (Col. Stanhope) hoped that the united and free nations of Europe would call for the observance of that oath, for The oath, the oath's the thing, By which to bind the conscience of the King." (Cheers, and cries of "Hear, hear.") Having made some further observations, the Gallant Colonel seconded the resolution, and was succeeded by Count ANASTASIUS Dysart, a Polish officer, who addressed the meeting in the French language, and said that he had been deputed by his fellow•countrymen in Switzerland to come to this country for the purpose of expressing their gratitude to the generous people of Eng land ; and to that expression of gratitude it was a heartfelt delight to him to have the opportunity of adding his own. —(hear, heir.) He regretted his inability to address the meeting in the English language ; but if he even had the power, he should not be able to express to them the warm feelings which animated him on the present occasion. To the British nation, Poland, lie continued, owed and felt much ; for after the many difficulties with which they had contended, the British nation was the first to step forward and render them assistance.—(Applause.) The Gallant Officer then referred to a discussion which took place in the Chamber of Deputies, and to a motion made in the British House of Commons, by Mr. Cutler Fergusson, on the state and affairs of Poland, for which kindness Poland must ever feel grateful, and concluded by repeating his gratitude and thanks to the people of England. Mr. ARNOTT moved, and Mr. THURSTON seconded, a resolution, appointing Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith, and Messrs. Coitus, the bankers to receive subscriptions. Monsieur JULIAN, a Frenchman, next addressed the meeting, and stated that he was a member of the Polish committee in Paris, and a friend of General Lafayette.— (Cheers.) He regretted he could not speak English ; but they would give him credit for gratitude to them for their generous feelings towards the Poles. Mr. ARNOTT then read a protest on the part of the people of England, against the conduct of Russia towards Poland, and the resolution that it be printed, translated into the different languages, and circulated, was passed unanimously. M. TOURS, a Pole, formerly Secretary to the Diet of Warsaw, rose to propose a vote of thanks to the Noble Chairman, and said it was a consolation to him to witness such a meeting in behalf of his brave but unfortunate countrymen.—(Hear.) Mr. BUCKINGHAM, in seconding the resolution, took the opportunity of announcing a sub , cription of one guinea from a young lady, who only signed her name " Anna"— (Applause)—and, in enclosing it, she accompaniediiewith some very beautiful verses suitable to the occasion, which he should read.—(Mr. Buckingham then read the verses, which were very pretty, and much applauded.) The Noble CHAIRMAN returned thanks at considerable length, and again made an energetic appeal to the charity of the country in aid of the Poles ; after which the meeting separated. A considerable subscription, we are happy to conclude, was collected at the doors, as the company, which exhi bited a considerable sprinkling of ladies, departed ; and in the way of subscription, it may not be amiss to remark, much may he done by the collection of small SIM, in taverns and houses of public resort. BRECKNOCK BEACONS, AND THE LAMENTABLE CATASTROEHE CONNICTED WITH THEM. The highest peak of the Beacon Hills, otherwise Bannau Brycheinog, is called Cadair Arthur, or Arthur's Chair ; it is the highest ground in South Wales, and begins to rise about two miles from Brecknock, which is six miles distant from the summit. The height, according to the Supplement to the " Saturday Magazine" for September, 1832, is 2,863 feet above the level of the sea, which is about 400 feet below the level of Brecknock. It is con sequently 2,500 feet higher than Brecknock bridge. It stands majestically between two other peaks of less eleva tion ; the whole have a volcanic appearance, and travel lers have attributed to the two higher cornuted elevations a great similarity to Mount Vesuvius. The north-eastern side of Arthur's Chair presents a hold display of wild rocks, almost perpendicular, to the extent of 1,500 feet from the summit, dipping magnificently into a deep ravine, between two mountains extending right awl left; on the southern one, the smallest peak ascends in almost a pyramidal form. It hae been the custom of the inha bitants, of all ranks, of Brecknock and Merthyr Tidvil, during the fine summer months, to form " picnic" par ties on the hills. The atmosphere at the top is extremely rare and fine, and the prospect is most extensive and grand, commanding a view of sixteen British counties, the Bristol Channel, the Steep and Flat Holmes, the Mum bles, and the Gloucestershire, Somersetshire, and Devon shire shores, from Newnham to Lundy. To the west, north, and north-east, the mountains of Priscelles, Plin limtnon, Cadair Idris, and the Merry Wrekin, may be seen. On Monday last, the sth of August, a party of young persons, from Brecknock, ascended the mountains, and melancholy is the history of the day. After refresh ing themselves, they divided into several companies, to enjoy the magnificence of the scenery. Having remained several hours, two young men, of respectable character, most imprudently frolicked with each other on the brink of the highest precipice, lost their balance, and were hurled headlong down the rocks, about SOO feet, until their progress was arrested by a projecting crag. Their friends in vain sought to discover them, so perpendicular horseand i consternation.ng the n h onight, Vastimme diately was the side of the place from which they fell, and it was occasionally obscured by a dense mist. The news did t aa their not reach Brecknock until half-past eight at night, and them, a greatd during a iannu, e edmy t b ew o en w redsr n eeaov w fo a up s r proceededes discovered, hs too r ino persons w find t p n o n into n d search brought of the to bodies,the houses of about three o'clock the following morning, a ft er a l ong search, respective parents. The place where they were found, was upwards of 1,200 feet from the valley below, and, owing to its steep and rugged sides, the situation of the people who humanely ventured their lives in the service, was most appalling. The ascent was made before day light, when the danger of it was not so apparent; it is a question whether any one would have so risked his life by 'lv-light. Rees Davies, mason, aged about 20, was an industrious lad, and the son of Evan Davies, of Bailey glses, Brecknock, mason, and John Jones, aged 19, was the son of Mr. John Jones, a respectable butcher, of Brecknock. Their parents and families are inconsolable. A coroner's inquest was held about two o'clock on Tuesday, at Brecknock Shire Hall, before Lewis Watkins, Esq., coroner, and a respectable jury, who, after a patient exa mination of witnesses, returned a verdict of " Accidental death." The accident is without a parallel in th e memory of the oldest inhabitant of the neighbourhood...— Hereford Times. The Harvest has commenced very generally iu the neighbourhood of Leicester.
