_ of the people. This consent was given to the Minis terial meainre, because that measure contained the ap p ropriatory clauses ; it was sternly refused to the Lordly BM, because that Bill did not contain these salutary clauses. How then can men, pretending to a right to walk abroad without keepers and a strait waistcoat, venture to assert that the Lordly mutilation would have restored peace to Ireland— produced harmony between the Established Church and the people—and secured to the Clergy the quiet enjoyment of their peaceably-collected revenues ? This is a question which every rational, unprejudiced person will put to himself. This is a view of the case which reason will suggest, and which cannot be cloaked by wretched sophistry, nor concealed by a cloud of turgid 'phraseology, vulgar abuse, and envenomed falsehood. If the scheme of the Tory Lords would 7201 tranquil lize Ireland, by adjusting the tithe question to the sa tisfaction of the people, who would of course be well contented if they were relieved from the pressure of that tax—and the people of Ireland have proclaimed a loud that that Bill could not produce any such effect .—it is manifest that the rejection by the Lords of the .Ministerial Bill, which received the approbation and assent of the tithe-payers, was a most mischievous proceeding, and that on their Lordships' heads, and on the heads of the clergy who encouraged them in their factious and pernicious conduct, the guilt of all the crime which the non-adjustment of the tithe ques tion has caused, or may still produce, will of right fall. They are, in truth, the " non-commuters of tithes—the grand writ-mongers—the factious, vi rulent, stubborn, incorrigible ( ? ) perpetuators of those frightful sanguinary conflicts," which have nearly destroyed the framework of society in the sister country, and covered the Established Church with odium and with blood. This revolting state of things cannot, however, be permitted to continue ; a barrier to agricultural anti commercial improvement — a fountain of immorality and outrage, and a constant source of weakness to the United Kingdom. Whether the Peers or the Parsons become wise or Christianlike between this and the spring months of the next year, the Irish tithe question shall and must be settled satis factorily in the ensuing Session of Parliament. Peace must be restored and the blood of God's creatures shall not continue to be shed in the loathsome pursuit of Christian Clergyoen after Mammon.—Morning Chronicle. When Lord Melbourne confessed in the House of Lords with a mixture of sulk and humiliation, that the peerage—the untitled aristocrscy—the gentry—the i learned professions—the universities --the bankingn terest—and the upper class of the commercial interest, were his political enemies ; when Lord Brougham stated broadly, that almost every man in the kingdom, having 5001. a-year to live upon, was a Conservative ; each of these Noble Lords admitted, in fact, that so far as the property, the education, the intelligence, the independence, and whatever constitutes the mind of the nation went, it was not represented by the policy or character of its rulers. But the Prime Minister and the Ex-Lord-Chancellor might have gone a good step further, without passing, or even approaching, the limits of obvious truth. Had they taken the trouble to look about them, they might easily have perceived the symptoms of a coming danger to the Ministry from the opposite side of the horizon. The Reform Bill—and what some of its authors anticipated as the certain consequences of that measure, viz., the downfall of the church, the aristocracy, and the gentry of England—were offered to the more turbulent portion of the middle and working classes, and to that sect of Dissenters who call themselves "Independents," as a bribe and payment for their support of the " Reform Ministry" against the Conservatives, through thick and thin. The bribe was swallowed, and, until very lately, the consideration for it has been fairly enough discharged by the seditious and anti-constitu tional, otherwise. the revolutionary, " section" of his Majesty's subjects. Of late, however, they have fallen off from their allegiance to the Melbourne Ministers, in proportion as certain individuals among that ill-adjusted faction have betrayed marks of terror at the extremities to which their Movement allies were propelling them, and as the whole Government, taken collectively, has proved unable to carry the promised measures of destruction, that is, to realize in kind the stipulated purchase-money of Ultra-Radical succour. But a far more grievous calamity has befallen the Mel bourne Whigs. While the disaffected of the middle classes have been growling and threatening them for flinching from the full extent of crime agreed upon, another more estimable and far more powerful descrip tion of the same order of citizens has roused itself from the indifference into which it had sunk, or the despair by which at first it was confounded. The sober, loyal, reflecting majority of the industrious in habitants of towns, as indeed was foreseen from the be ginning by all who understood the tone, genius, and spirit of this great people, have in a manner simulta neously opened their eyes to the nature of the vassalage which oppressed the Ministers ; and, being alarmed for the too certain result of a contest in the minds of Minis ters, between their sharp consciousness of immediate and selfish interest and their feeble sense of a higher duty, as well as of a remoter risk, these active-minded but untainted Englishmen have resorted to the new expe dient of associations for preserving unimpaired the solid and well-devised institutions of their forefathers, not against the fair and natural operation of the Bill which reformed the old borough system, but against the cor rupt and ruinous perversion of that system to the ends of a sordid, factious, and tyrannical democracy. Conservatiye " tradesmen's" associations, Conserva tive " operatives" associations, have been organised in various parts of England, and have commenced a series of vigorous and decisive proceedings in cordial alliance with the Conservative aristocracy of their respective neighbourhoods, whom they alternately support and lean upon, and with whom they maintain an encou raging in t e rcourse of festive meetings and political dis cussions. Now, the beauty of such a muster, such discipline, and such reciprocal pledges consists in its being a direct attack upon the public enemy in the stong-hold of his own free choice. The very founda tion-!tone of the Whig-Radical or Movement empire was to tie insurrection of the town democracy against the noblest institutions of Church and State. When the flower, tfretefore, not of the agricultural, for that is all safe, but of the " urban" population itself, through whose eager and unanimous assistance the cause of Conservatism was to have been effectually crushed, the spirit of reguiizted freedom and constitu tional monarchy subdued, and Whig dominion, the grand object of all, assured to its present pos sessors when, instead of this plorious victory for Whig-Radicalism, the intended instruments whereby :is was to be accomplished, namely, the large and opulent towns of Great Britain, b ecome . foci of loyalty, and of zealous attachment to good and ra tional government, it is nothing less than a mine sprung within the ver y citadel of revolution ; and the fat effects of it h ave become alread y visible. :1 1 But if toms in general be the scenes whmereannerantthie revolutionary' spirit developer i tself in a an roost formidable to the Movement Ministry, so there kingdom where it is of such inesti is l'3o quarter of the mahle value to the good cause,. that the town inha bitants should display that spint, as in the great mann a.nd. the parts of facturina emporia of Lancashire, Yorkshire and Staffordshire connected with them. The example of Liverpool is of an importance iiot to be ap preciated. Leeds follows boldly in her wake. Manchester contains materials which require only i to be well h ist wandledo and disposed of to make the pedantic economh now sits for that industrious and intelligent co nstituency soon look out for some new place of refuge. Oldham, Bolton, Sheffield, Birmingham, will, ere long catch the spark by which Liverpool is animated, and the un- English foe will be felled with his own weapons. In turning to the speeches at the late Lancashire meetings we find a short notice of one delivered at Preston by a worthy operative named Parker, who, it is satisfactory to add, went thither from Birmingham, which shows the sound sense and well-directed feeling of the speaker, as it indicates no doubt those of the class is which lie belongs. In alluding to our Protestant Church he says—" The Established Church is peculiarly the church of the' poor man. Was there ever a truth more undeniable than this, or one more pregnant with vast and awful consequences ? The parish church is open to the whole community. The humblest inha bitant of this wide realm, the most destitute pauper that knows not whers else to seek a resting place, en tors therein with asp t, - humble indeed, as befits him, towards his Maker, but towards man, erect in con scious equality of brotherhood, with the wealthiest and noblest of his fellow-creatures. Shut, then, the door of this House of God, by taking away the legalized subsistence of its ministers, and by refusing the funds that protects it from dilapidation—what follows ? The rich and noble, the independent, the comfortable, the competent, the tradesman; the artisan in constant em ployment, all who have wherewith to feed and clothe their families, and to pay something towards the main tenance of a church, and the support of its minister — all such can fay money obtain a right of admission, and can hear the vord of God without impediment ; but what becomes of him who has no money, who can contribute nothin2, who has not bought his way into the list of the congregation ? What does the voluntary principle Jo for him? Let him try a meeting-house of political Dissenters —let bun try any place of worship raised, and its minister main tained, by subscription, or by money contribution under any form, and see what will be the success of his ap plication to the porter or functionary who keeps the gate. For the very poor, who cannot afford t ” o pay, there is no help from the " voluntary principle, But in the Established Church, those who pay not a farthing are entitled, as their indefeasible birth-right, to receive all which can be there supplied to the worn-down spirit and the broken heart—the solemn prayer—the inspired word—the Holy Sacrament—that peace and blessing which the world cannot give, but of which our charitable advocates for " religions liberty" would, in their beneficence, despoil the children of affliction — the chosen ones of Christ Yes, the Established Church of England is emphatically the " poor man's church," and cursed be he who would destroy it. The Established Clergy are the poor man's ministers ; they are bound to yield him, when called upon, and they do yield him, spiritual instruction and consolation, as or dained by the law under which he lives ; and cursed again, we say, is he who would rob the poor man of this his inalienable possession here—this passport to his immortal inheritance in a better world.—Times. Yesterday was a memorable epoch. It was St. Crispin's Vay—the anniversary of the battle of Agin court—an event of which the conqueror, Henry V., predicted that future Englishmen " would stand on tip-toe when the day was named." If we are to credit the veracity of the rumours collected in Paris by our French correspondent, and of which the substance has been given in our Express, the day was intended to be rendered still more memorable in the annals of Eng. land and France as a new birth-day of French liberty —a conspiracy having been concocted for the purpose of dethroning Louis Philippe, and replacing the people in possession of the rights they conquered during the Three Days. In order that nothing might be wanting to the theatrical effect of this reported plot, it is stated that the great denouement and concluding scene of the tragi-comedy of Citizen-kingship was to be enacted on the very spot distinguished by the judi cial decapitation of another pretended Bourbon Ci tizen-king ; and, that nothing might be wanting to render the scenery of this admonitory spectacle ade quate to its performance, the point of time selected was the moment when the King was to be present at the erection of the plundered obelisk of Luxor, on the above spot, as if the present Russo-French Cabinet, in the midst of their blundering confusion and trepi dation, had intended to celebrate the defeat of a Bour bon profligate at Agincourt, and the decapitation of one of his successors. As to the plot itself we be lieve, as Macbeth says, " there is no such thing." It is one of those " air-drawn daggers," which the con science-struck terror of tyrants is perpetually conjuring up before their disordered and suspicious vision. It is a satisfactory indication that tyrants, in the midst of their faithless and oppressive acts, are still amenable to the laws of retribution, and responsible by the claims of personal fear to the people whom they injure. It is most gratifying to have this additional proof, both of the folly and danger of fettering the press. Where the press is free there are neither grounds, nor means, nor opportunities for secret machination against autho rity. It is by stopping this safety-valve of public opi nion that tyrannic infatuation hurries on those critical periods of explosion which scatter the fragments of their bauble crowns and tinsel sceptres to the four winds. No ; Louis Philippe has nothing to dread from this iinaginacy emeute, but the commotion produced by his own conduct and that of the miserable tools—his present Ministers—in his own breast. His real dan ger of being shor tl y dis p ossessed of his abused autho rity looms from another quarter of his darkened poli tical hemisphere. The speech of M. Odillon Barrot, at the public dinner lately given to him by his consti tuents, and the manner in which he was received at that dinner, constitute much more formidable signs of the departing delusions of the mock kingdom of the barricades. A numerous body of Magistrates, and no less than thirteen Mayors of towns, were present. We feel pleasure in quoting a portion of the speech made on that occasion by that staunch and Consistent friend of. human liberty and European reform—the Deputy for the department of the Aisne. In eloquent terms he conjured the French people " to emerge from that lethargy in which a Government unfaithful to its origin had plunged them, because it considered their terror an infallible guarantee of its own security. The representative system as at present understood," he said, " was a contemptible parody, a mensonge. The Government, in his opinion, was every day pro ceeding in the way of re-action, and could not ad vance much farther without danger to its existence. Several attempts to retrace its steps had been made in vain. The Ministry of February had perished after going through a legislative session, and in the full possession of the Parliamentary majority. The men who composed it had shared in all the terrors that besieged the Government since 1830. They had joined in all the coups d'etat, and voted in favour of all the illiberal and exorbitant measures and laws of which Fieschi's crime had been made the occasion or pretext. But," said he, " they were men of the Re volution ; in spite of their protests they were supposed to have a leaning towards the principles of that Revo lution, and they expiated the crime of their origin." M. Odillon Barrot finally denounced their unpopular successors as following in the footsteps of Polignac, and unavoidably hurrying towards destruction. This is the language which it becomes all the real friends of French liberty, as well as French tranquillity, to em• ploy towards the present infatuated ruler of France and his accomplices—perhaps victims—the present Rus sian Cabinet of the Tuileries. On all sides--in Por tugal, in Spain, in Switzerland—they are compromis ing the cause of French and European liberty, and complicating the manifold and aogmenting dangers of their position. It is perfectly obvious that " the end" is rapidly drawing nigh. That is, indeed, a formidable coi:spiracy when all the liberal intelligence of a country —all that e atstitutes the healthy essence of public opinio conspires—l:hat is to say, sympathizes in thought and inclination in opposing £he incapabi lities, treacheries, or public crimes of bad or faithless governors—heartily and thoroughly unite.---Morning Advertiser. Much as we are opposed to .the measures of Lord Melbourne's Government, we do not think so meanly of that Noble Lord personally as to suppose that he can be indifferent to the judgment which histo r y will pronoun ce upon hi s character and conduct as a states man. To an honourable mind this should be one of the polar stars of present conduct ; and " what will posterity say ?" the question which should precede every important act or resolve. If Lord Melbourne, stifling the insidious voice of flattery, allows himself of refl ect i on to as k hi mse lf thi s question, a a o r m dst t he main f eatures o f hi s po li t i ca l career in o ffi c e, a en ffis emg c r e, the honest answer must, we apprehend, be any. thing but flattering or even consolatory. As a member o f Earl Greys Administration, Lord Melbourne's ease and good humour, coupled with the comparatively s e not ;nessucrt e ;do him 1: ensuredif we lulinmimpreosrptaenctti nature of his dutie c nd, B .7l d are es Q te f em, ouetry . with the Trades officialbu but any material except his mischievous " Unions, his administration of the (tutuZ, of the Home: Department was as respectable and unobjectionai:e '‘ Q that of most of his predecessors. On this department Lord Melbourne's character as a Statesman should have been allowed to rest. Here having kept, with the above exception, " the noiseless tenor of his way," he ought to have considered how much better adapted was its still repose" to his talents as well as habits, than 0 he command of a vessel, which it is but too apparent e round em t ftity to has neither the skill to steer, nor the mo ral courag long as they proceed ir.t.1.1 ores a most efficient ceed, all Os bourne, Earl Grey, and the three other to bring into action. In au evil hour for Lord Mel- ca use the mallow. he 'dc members of his Cabinet, Lords Althorp and le t ISt ley and Sir James Graham, left the cab , andari- six v- I v - T a ci t ed Lord a f u tu Melbourne repage ii s l donehistosroy which will eo. too, he would have ob viated but little to the credit of his statesmanship, ans,;. as little t o the honour of his country. We do nssi mean to say that Lord Melbourne was to be governed in his opinions by those of his late colleagues. lie, ' " good easy man," might, if he pleased, laugh at their scruples, and ridi cule their ideas of danger ; but still retaining his ow n sentiments upon those topics, Lord Melbourne, if he possesed any degree of self-knowledge, ought to have known, that to be Prime Minister of England, was a station to which he himself in his cooler moments, had never dreamt of aspiring ; and that in taking the post of Earl Grey, he naturally drew upon 'him th e eyes of those who could not use them but to be con vinced of a wide and mortifying inferiority. That such has been the result, and that Lord Melbourne's Pre miership has been as disadvantageous to his country as to his own fame, is now pretty generally admitted by, men of all parties, as well friends as foes ; for it is the mortifying result of the false position in which Lord Melbourne has allowed himself to be placed, that his Government is now as loudly reviled by many of its former adherents, as by the most steady and consistent of its opponents. Indeed, it may be a question whe ther it does not owe its existence, on more than one occasion, to the generosity with which its opponents have rescued it from the attacks of seceding friends. Whether, as in the case of Cesar, nothing will so well become Lord Melbourne as his fall, remains to be seen. For this, public expectation will not, we ima gine, have very long to wait. Like Cesar, Lord Mel bourne's Government may reach the " ides of March," but he is a bold soothsayer who can venture to promise it a much longer existence.—Morning Herald. Among the thousand aspects of degradation under which Whig-Radicalism is in the habit of exhibiting itself, there is none more humiliating than the light airs of indifference with which it reeds to regard the public manifestations which mark the growing triumph of its adversaries. There are fellows of this sort — the Whig-Radicals, doubtless, of the felons' dock, who grin, and affect an air of insolence, even when sentence of death is impending over them ; and such persons are more disgusting to the moral sense than they are who exhibit a sincereterror. Downright cowardice is a pitiable infirmity, but cowardice, coupled with - a pre posterous affectation of the contrary, is most contemp tible as well as pitiable. The Whig-Radicals now say that they care nothing for the evidence of growing and spreading Conservatism which so many public din ners, in various parts of the country, afford. The " wine inspired enthusiasm," as they are pleased to call it, of these assemblies, is nothing to them—nay, they are quite gratified, if you will believe themselves, that their opponents can make these things " suffice to atone for their exclusion from the solid .advantages which they: were accustomed to reap from the possession of the reins of Government." We can, in turn, assure the Whig-Radicals, and we believe with rather more sincerity, that they are perfectly welcome to the enjoy ment of those " solid advantages," which they appear to value at their full worth, while the possession of them, under present circumstances, exhibits their mean and sordid character so effectually to the public. We know not what " solid advantages" would compensate honest and manly politicians for holding office without the power of carrying any measure of which their oppo nents disapprove, and with no element of strength be yond a paltry majority in one House of Parliament— a majority which is made up of men who continually avow contempt and suspicion even of the Administra tion which, through entreaty and importunity, they are induced to sustain. This is the positioh of the present Administration. It can do nothing but by sufferance of its opponents. It is beaten in the House of Lords —it exhibits a bare majority, the result of a base and unprincipled, and therefore very unstable coalition in the House of Commons ; and now—now it affects to treat with contempt even the expression of popular opinion, because, forsooth, the expression of that opinion is not accompanied by the " solid advantages" which belong to the possession of office I We think we attach no undue importance to the Conservative dinners which have of late been taking place so abundantly through out the country ; and we are quite sure that if the Whig-Radicals had anything of the same kind to boast of, we should hear no sneers at such evidence of public opinion. We should then find magnified into ten time s its real importance that which is now treated with an affectation of contempt, because there are no " solid advantages" combined with it—no salaries, no patron age no commissionerships to appoint to—no Crown livings, or governorships, or regiments to give away. We do not in the least doubt that the Whigs feel the solidity of these advantages with all the force which belongs to substantially good things ; but, considering all that they have hitherto pretended to think, it would be as becoming if they did not so ostentatiously proclaim their value, as altogether out weighing any expression of the popular mind at assemblies at once convivial and political. Pursu ing this impudent confession, that the " solid advantages" are the real matters which should console a political party, no matter what defeats they may meet with in Parliament, or what contempt they may have to encounter in public, these satisfied gentry proceed to ask us why we do not renew the experiment of 1834 ? The first answer to this is, that the Conser vatives cannot renew an experinient which they never made. Of all the vulgar falsehoods with which coarse and ignorant minds have sought to gratify themselves, surely the lowest, flattest, and yet most palpable false hood of them all is that which attributes the dismissal of the Melbourne-Ministry in November, 1834, to an intrigue of the Conservative party. The coarsest of the coarse, the lowest of the low, even in the Whig party, will scarcely dare to attribute false representation upon this subject to the Duke of Wellington or Sir Robert Peel ; and they have declared, as explicitly as words can declare it, that the dismissal of the Mel bourne-Administration took them wholly by surprise. Notwithstanding all the impudence of assertion which belongs to the Whig-Radicals, along with the " solid advantages," there has never been a particle of even colourable evidence brought forward to show that any member of the Conservative body had any thing to do with that dismissal. Happily there was no standing ground for such a fabrication ; the cha racter of those concerned—all the circumstances of the affair—forbade it. But reckless impudence may insi nuate any thing. The assumption of the Government by the Conservatives in 1834 was not of their seeking, nor was it their wish. They undertook the Govern ment, however, making themselves responsible for what had been done ; and the nation—England at all events —well repaid the deliberate courage of the under taking. Under a new representative system—a system invented, constructed, worked by their opponents, for the destruction of the Tory party—a system under which they boasted that the Tories were for ever and ever shut out from the government of Great Britain—under that system a general election took place, which returned upwards of three hundred Con' servative Members to the House of Commons. We can tell the present e njovers of the " solid advantages" that the Conservatives have lost no ground in the na tion since then. Can they—can the Whig-Radical Administration—say as much ? Of a truth we think not, though they do, by the aid of the man who in October, 1834, spurned them as knaves and fools, retain the " solid advantages." But why, it may again be asked—" why do not the Conservatives push their influence with the country to the extreme point of a change of Administration and another election ?" Rather say, why should they do any such thing? To what end ? Every day the conduct of their opponents whe pow 4 1 14 the Government, and the circumstances to w hi c h their holding of it gives rise, strengthen the influence of the Conservatives in the country, Why should they interrupt a course of events so favourable to them, especially as they hold the power, of keeping in •'- nroeress of the present contemptible Go check tn. L .. They are not in a vernment towards revolts.— -• • .71 condition to feel any want of the " solid auvantages which their opponents seem to consider an equivalent for everything else whiph they have not, They are in a better position than if they 'held the Government, so 1836. _.,ent course of rallying classes, and making their .41, cause. If steadily they thus pro evils which this country has suffered under - cars of bad and weak Government will be far more than repaid by the glorious results which must follow. An Aristocracy blended in heart and mind—in feelings and in interests—with the middle classes will form a rampart of Conservatism, against which the waves of Democracy will beat in vain. The British monarchy may start again in the race of nations like a giant re freshed. Meanwhile let the Whig-Radicals hold their " solid advantages" as long as they can. In due time they will drop from their feeble grasp, and that wretched party, with ou t s t reng th an d without character—without honour and without merit—will sink, never to rise again —Mornincr Post. POSTAGES ON FOREIGN LETTERS. The following explanatory notice, with regard to the re cent change in the mode of charging the postage on foreign letters, was yesterday posted up against the foreign letter department : " With reference to the instructions on the subject of charging foreign letters, I beg to explain it is not intended to deprive the public of any advantages they derived from the mode of charge in this country, and, consequently, a letter, consisting of one piece of paper, not exceeding an ounce weight, is still chargeable as single only ; a letter with one enclosure, not exceeding an ounce weight, is chargeable as double only ; and a letter with more than one enclosure, not exceeding an ounce weight, is chargeable as treble. This applies to British rates only. The British rates on foreign letters are only to be charged by weight when it is advantageous to the public at large. Thus, a letter containing one or more enclosures, not exceeding a quarter of an ounce, is to be charged single only ; a letter, with more than one enclosure, above a quarter of an ounce and not exceeding half an ounce, is to be charged double only, and (according to the former practice) a letter, with not more than one enclosure, exceeding half an ounce and not exceeding an ounce, is to be charged treble. " There is a aifference between the British and the French mode of calculating the fractions of the weight. Accordinc , to the English practice, a letter does not become chargeable with a higher rate of postage, unless it exceeds the weight specified, by turning the scale, whereas, according to the French system, if it reaches the weight named, it in stantly becomes liable to the increased rate ; for instance, a letter is not liable to two British rates unless it exceeds a quarter of an ounce : or to three rates, unless it exceeds half an ounce ; or to four rates, unless it exceeds an ounce ; but in charging the French rates, if the letter weighs the quarter of an ounce, although it does not exceed it, it must be charged with two rates ; if it weighs half an ounce, with three rates : if it weighs three-quarters of an ounce, with four rates ; and if it weighs an ounce, with five rates, and so on for every quarter of an ounce.

ARMYTAGE."— Of this, Mrs. Gore's most popular work, the Dublin Even ing Mail observes, " Colburn has made another capital hit. Mrs. Armytagels a potent enchantress ; and we can plainly foresee that the whole novel-reading world will spee dily submit to the spell of Female Domination.' The cha racter of the heroine of this story is a genuine original —so natural and striking, that we really wonder it was left by the host of her predecessors untouched and unattempted as a prize for the genius of Mrs. Gore to unravel and display. There is lively and powerful portraiture of character in these volumes ; and its development reminds us continually of some of the liveliest, and most graphic scenes of ' Cecilia,' to the genius of whose author, in our judgment, Mrs. Gore bears a strong affinity." Qne of the highest tides of the river Tay in th e memory of PM took place no On Pth lost, At New burgh a vessel was left high and dry on the beach at the fall of the tide, and near the mouth of the Earn another was found oo the top of an embankment, eight gr ten feet above the ordinary tide level of the river, and it will be found a matter of considerable difficulty to have her safely launobed. Some of the sea-dykes, constructed by the n r,.- prietors on the banks of the Tay. " view of gaining an extent of land from the broad expanse of the river, were overflown, broken down, and the crops materially damaged, notwithstanding that those barriers were calculated to be proof against all contingencies, PRICES OF CANALS, DOCK STOCKS, ASSURANCE COMPANIES, &c. &c. &c.
