- MAGAZINES.-(CONTINUED.) FREEMASON'S Q UARTERLY REVIEW Sherwood and Co. This work is indispensable to all members of the Masonic body, who are not insensible of the importance of being familiar with the proceedings of the craft, and the opinions of the Grand Brotherhood, It is ably And well conducted. In an article on a recent debate in the House of Lords, as to whether the laws for the repression of Secret Societies extended to Masonic Institutions, it is well observed that Freemasonry has no connexion whatever with politics. This is a fact which we believe to be very generally known ; although there have not been men of narrow minds, both in Church and State, wanting to question its correctnes-7. For our own part, though totally un connected with all Societies of the kind, we are per suaded that a better institution than that of Free masonry never existed. In the way of extract, we present our readers with the following Masonic anec dote : " On the breaking out of the war (after the short peace) in 1803, Captain Akerman was returning from Newfoundland to Poole, when he was taken by a French privateer off Port land, nearly in sight of his native place (Burton Bradstock, near Bridport.) On nearing the French coast, as the prize master was overhauling the ship's papers, he observed a master mason's certificate, dated the 10th of September, 1783, show ing that the captain belonged to the Lodge of Amity, at Poole. At sight of the certificate he exclaimed " Mon Dieu !" gage it to the captain, took his hand, and gave him the fra ternal embrace. He then called one of the crew who could speak English, and through him conveyed to Captain Aker man his gr-iat regret at not knowing that he was a mason before, as he would have put him on shore at Portland or Albany Head. On landing at Bordeaux, Captain Akerman was treated kindly, and when he set off for Verdun on his pa role, every precaution was taken to render his situation corn• fortable on the journey. Ho was regularly billetted at the house of a Freemason, and his property, consisting of dollars, a watch, silver spoons, &c. &c. placed under the protection of the gees d'armes at each stage; and, on his arrival, safely de livered to him. At that depot this unfortunate victim of war remained 611 the peace of 1814; but it is worthy of remark, that, during hig eleven years of imprisonment, he often expe rienced the kindness of his captor. While he was at Verdun, Napoleon passed through the place, and, knowing that there were several Masons among the prisoners, he inquired how they conducted themselves; and on being told by the com mandant that they behaved extremely well, ordered a dinner to be given them. They were invited accordingly, and, after due examination by the proper officers, sat down (on Christ mas-day) to a moat excellent dinner. The commandant (as master of the Lodge), at the removal of the cloth, gave the health of Brother Napoleon Buonaparte, Emperor of France, &c. &c., which was drunk with Masonic honours. At the close a the meeting each Englishman was presented with a five-franc piece in the Emperor's name, which they gratefully received, though from the hands of their national enemy." THE ASIATIC JOURNAL. Allen and Co. This Number is an improvement upon the last, though still not so good as we could wish it to be. The biographical sketch of Sir Charles Wilkins is in teresting ; and the articles on the Indian Army, and the native irregular Horse, well worthy of the atten tion of all who delight in making themselves acquainted with the military resources of our empire in the East. The Chinese account of India is a welcome offering to the lovers of oriental literature. THE DUBLIN UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE. Simphin and Marshall. The second part of the life of the great Henry Flood, which forms the subject of the Fifth Number of the " Gallery of Illustrious Irishmen," is not equal to any of those which preceded it. There is nothing sufficiently graphic about it. The writer looks about in vain for a niche in which to place his hero, with a view to correct the .world's impressions respecting his size and proportions. We do not agree with him where be says—" The details into which we have already entered, and the specimens of his intellectual powers, which we have laid before the reader, render it unne cessary, we presume, to dwell at any great length upon the character of this great man." The details here referred to are in a great measure connected with his unfortunate differences with Grattan ; his appearance in the British Parliament ; and his correspondence with the Duke of Chandos relative to the representa tion of the borough of Winchester. These details are by no means sufficient to give the reader anything like ' a correct idea of the surpassing powers of Flood's great and masterly mind. " The Boyhood of a Dreamer," is rich in promise. Many of the introductory lines are very beautiful, and the whole breathes the spirit of a true poet. We await with much pleasurable anticipation the com mencement of the poem itself, which is promised to be given in the future Numbers of this Magazine. The " Em ;grant's Tale " wants power and originality of conception. There is not an incident in it for which we could not find a dozen counter-parts in po pular Irish Romances. The " Attractions of Ireland" is a good paper ; and the " Chapter on Cousins" an amusing one. THE LONDON AND PARIS LADIES' MAGA ZINE OF FASHION. Mason. We have here forty-four highly coloured figures, all looking as lovely as well-dressed ladies ever do, when they have not passed the rubicon of life ; and a few literary trifles, by way of polite accompaniment, for a shilling. Can we say more to procure for the work an extensive patronage ? THE PARTERRE. Effingham Wilson. This little 'journal of fiction, poetry, history, and general literature, is acquiring an extensive, and well deserved circulation. Many of the articles' are equal in point of merit to those published in some of the best Magazines. The wood-cuts in the Part for June, are better than the adornments for the month which pre ceded it. THE PICKWICK CL ÜB—No. IV. These tales and sketches of character are told with much skill by " Boa," who has a playful and natural vein of humour that never deserts him. His slight portrait of the Boots at some old-fashioned Inn in the Borough, though somethi ng car i catured, is yet full of arch drollery. He ridicules pompous common-place, too, in a very happy style, and uses a blockhead, as old Isaac Walton used a worm, " as t h ough he loved him. " Of the two embell ishments prefixed to the Number, one is clever—the other but mediocre. THE ANALYST. Simpkin and Marshall. This Quarterly Publication is almost exclusively devoted to antiqunrian researches—the several branches of natural history—and the fine arts. The subjects of which it treats does not come within the scop e o f newspaper criticism, inasmuch as they are either un intelligible or uninteresting to the mass of newspaper readers. Thus, whether we agree with, or differ from, Mr. J. Britton, respecting the architectural orna ments of the church of Stratford-on-Avon ; or whe ther we approve or disapprove of Mr. Bloxham s opinions relative to the antiquities of Warwick shire, is a matter of the utmost indifference to nine teen-twentieths of our readers. It is different with regard to such articles as Mr. Langston Parker's Essay on the Imagination of Sleep-walkers, than which nothing can be more interesting. The Critical Notices are written with care, evince a sound judgment, and a correct taste. We may add that the June Number of the " Analyst" is embellished with a ground plan, and two several views, of the Free School of Kin , / Edwara l VI., at Birmingham. 0 THE SPORTSMAN. Here we have a kindred spirit, and here, too, we find " Touchstone," the winntte Df the Ascot Cup of the present year, of the St. Leger in 182.4, and various botlier stakes. With respect to the fidelity of the ies,Qm blance, no less than to the accuracy of the details of execution, we can truly state ,a very favourable judg- Lunt. The anecdotes are pungent and pleasing, and from the sparkling style in which they bound forward, are likely to make an impression not liable to the common oblivion into which such things generally fall. There is abundance of matter, too, all good in its way, and spread over a goodly number of columns. " Hunt ing in the Highlands," is redolent with pleasing re trospectives. • •, THE MONTHLY REPOSITORY. Charles Fox. The active management of this very able and most liberal periodical will in future devolve upon a gentle man advantageously known to the literary world as the author of the " Exposition of the False Medium, &c." —Mr. R. H. Horne. How far this arrangement will be beneficial to the subscribers can only be de termined by an experience which the future becoming the past only can give. We are glad, however, to learn that the late Editor, the eloquent J. W. Fox, will retain his interest in the work, as well as continue to contribute to its pages. The Number before us is varied and interesting ; but too much space is devoted to reviews of works of passing interest. • THE MONTHLY. Sherwood and Co. The only fault that we have to find with the June Number of the " Old Monthly" is, that most of its tales are continuations of preceding articles. This is a. great annoyance to those readers— and the class is a very numerous one—who do not care to burthen their memories for months together with the first, second, and third parts of a Magazine contributor's introduc tion to a Gretna-green wedding, or a canal immersion by starlight. Let there be less of this, and. we have no doubt but that the public will respond to the call of the proprietor " on commencing the twenty-second volume of the New Series." By far the best paper in the present Number is one on the comparative happiness of the sexes. The contributor of " Half hours"—notwithstanding the Editorial hint—is in no danger of exciting the curiosity of the public for another month at least. Till he contribute something better, few will disturb themselves to make out his identity. LONDON MAGAZINE.-TO WN AND COUN TRY MAGAZINE.

The tales in this Number, which are six, are neither very good nor very had this month, but hold a mean between the two. The illustrations are in harmonious keeping with them. THE SPORTING MAGAZINE. Pittman. We know not precisely the amount of pleasure other persons may feel with a companion so elegant and amusing, possessing such a fund of all that can con centrate the attention and heighten the pleasure of a sportsman—and yet wherewithal so quiet and unpre tending—but for ourselves, we are free to declare, that during these days of canicular heat, when the hunts man's horn is hushed, and the gun stands mute and unemployed, we desire nothing better than to luxuriate on the good things which are to be found in the " Sporting Magazine." The present Number is at once chaste and rich, and the flow of its soul is perhaps not very unlike in effect the best Hock, and that genuine Champagne which sparkles, not inebriates. Without a metaphor, the July Number is excellent. We have to begin with four finely executed engravings—Bay Middleton, the winner of the last Derby, from a painting by Herring—Cyprian, the victor of the Oak Stakes ; and two other interest- ing subjects. Where the excellencies are so numerous, it were in vidious to particularize any paper as being superior to others. To our taste, however, " Craven's Visit to the Royal Stud," with his remarks on stud farms, is a very pleasing paper. " Equiso's" suggestion relative to "The Start at Epsom," is worth considering. The last start, by opening the eyes of the world to the enor mous evil of the false starts for which Epsom has obtained a bad eminence, is likely to lead to the adoption of a fairer and better system. Talk of re form, here is a subject on which the Lords can and ought to legislate. Racing men of all grades would concur with them—there would be a perfect agreement on this subject among all parties, and no collision need be dreaded. We cannot conclude this brief notice without making honourable mention of the able man ner in which the subject of the " English Racer and Saddle Horse " is treated. FARMERS' MAGAZINE. This is a Monthly Journal possessing necessarily considerable interest, as it affects all the great agricul- tural interests of the country. LONDON and EDINBCRGII PHILOSOPHICAL MAGAZINE. R. Taylor, Red Lion-court. In this number Mr. I3eke brings to a conclusion his very interesting paper " On the Former Extent of the Persian Gulf, and on the Non-identity of Babylon and Babel." The Letter from Baron Humboldt to the D uke of Sussex " On Advancing the Knowledge of Terrestrial Magnetism," is a paper of great value, and we trust that the suggestions which it contains will be adopted by the Royal Society. There is no man of the present day whose opinions on such a subject is more worthy of attention than that of the eminent Prussian naturalist. The notices of the proceedings of scientific societies are as copious as usual. COVENTRY UNION BANKING COMPANY--It will be seen by advertisement, in another column, that the old-established and highly respectable Banking-house of Messrs. Bunuey, Burnley and Pepper, of this City, have merged their business into that of the above Company ; as have also Messrs. Chapman, of the Atheratone Bank, at whose establishment the Atherstone Branch of the Coventr/ Union will henceforth be conducted, under the superinten dence of John Chapman, Esq. A Branch Bank has also been established by the same Company at Coleshill, at the house of and under the taperintendenee of Mr. .Tito,.—Coventry Herald and Observer. WRECK OF THE OTTAWA. —By a letter just received by the Rev. John Boyle of Barton, it appears that the Ottawa, the vessel which Captain B. commanded, was wrecked on her passage from Quebec to London, off the is land of Anticosti, on the first of December last, when all the crew, with the exception of the mate and two seamen, who un fortunately perished, after a desperate struggle, succeeded in making the shore. Captain Boyle describes the sufferings of himself, his men, and three passengers, a gentleman, his wife sad child, to have been very great, Anticosti being al most uninhabited, and the season unusaally severe, so much so that the men were all frost bitten, and two have since died of mortification. Captain B. was to sail for Quebec on the 28th of June.—Hull Packet. INKLimas OF ADvENTunz,Aniong the tales and sketches that are so appropriately ranked titular this title, there is one that for sublimity of drear horror we think unri valled. It is one of Mr, Willis's " Scenes of Fear," and en titled " The Lunatics' Skate," It can be no common mind which could conceive, and no germs:o4 talent that could express this incident at once so thrilling and se inOresting. Indeed the author has handled all the subjects in these volume; like one who has a right to be enrolled among the master spirits of the age. The following tragical occurrence lately took place near Algiers :—An Arkii of a Dollar of the Aribs, in the en virons of Rassanta, suspecting the fidelity of his wife, went u pon the watch to detect her. Returning li t mp one evening, and finding her absent, he went out in search of Wei', tend at length r reclini ng on the ground in a species of aliurAair, whil e anot h er man was wa lki ng meadow descried withher ke p about smoking his pipe, flxi eYkkently keeping watch.

He then rushed upon her and soon severed her head from her body, and bore it back to his tribe. Displaying the bleeding trophy of his vengeance, he demanded of the spectators what wpgld have done under similar eircemstances. They unanimously rßpiji-11 that they would have acted in the same manner. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 4, 1836. MEETING TO ESTABLISH A RE FORM ASSOCIATION AT WORCESTER. A Meeting, duly convened by public notice, was held on Thursday morning, at the Guildhall, for the purpose of establishing a Reform Association. One o'clock was an nounced as the hour of meeting, and, shortly after that time, the principal promoters of the meeting, accompanied by Colonel Davies, entered the Crown Court, and were re ceived with the loud acclamations of those assembled. The Court was much ,crowded, and numbers could not obtain admittance ; in consequence of which there was a general cry of" adjourn into the body of the Hall," which request was immediately complied with. Mr. HARDY was called to the chair. Having directed the attention of the Meeting to the Requisition calling them together, he proceeded to remark, that they had assembled on that occasion to establish an Association, the object of' which would be to counteract the pl ans an d ma chinations of the Tories, whose design at all times was to defeat the ends of justice with regard to the people. • More especially had they used the Registration as a means of doing so, and placed upon the list numbers w h o h a d no right to be there. O ne o f the principal objects of the pro posed Association would be to prevent the recurrence 01 such proceedings. Captain CoaLEs proposed the first resolution. He ob served that it was with much pleasure that he came before them to advocate the establishment of a Reform Associa tion. He was induced to do so for many reasons. He had acted with them for twenty years, and it should not said of him that in the hour of danger lie had turned tail upon them, and left them when they were in difficulties. —(Hear, hear, and cheers.) The preparation they were now making was not very unusual at the approach of an election, as they had been in the habit of forming parochial committees on such occasions. He was not much gifted with the power of oratory or the flow of elo quence, nor was he in the habit of speech-making ; he considered , that in speech-making there was a kind of knack, which was obtained chiefly by practice.—(A laugh.) However he would rather address them in a plain manner as their friend and fellow-citizen.— (Cheers.) They were met that day for the purpose of forming a Society to obtain a just and fair registration of votes, and to afford a rallying-point for the Reformers. It was necessary that such a Society should lie formed in Worcester, for he trusted that they would not again be found in a similar situation to that they were in at the last contest. He had witnessed a great difference in that city within the last twenty years. He remembered that at that time to be considered something like a Reformer was to be considered something like a rogue.—(A laugh.) He recol lected what they (the Reformers) had done in that Hall some eighteen years ago, when they began to bestir them selves and determined to be free.—(Hear, hear.) They then proved that they' only willed to be free, and they had the power to be so.—(Cheers.) If he did not think that an Association was necessary, lie would not support it ; or if •he imagined that it would be diverted to unlawful pur poses, lie would take his hat and leave them.--(Hear, hear.) But he considered the due registration of votes to be of the greatest importance, and it only required, to be satisfied on that subject, that they should refresh their memories with a recollection of, what occurred within those walls at the revision of the lists in 1834. (Hear, hear.) He (Mr. C.) would inquire what was the method adopted by their opponents then—it was a mere calling over the names upon the lists. "0! (said they) lie is dead," and off came his name ; with regard to another— '° 0, he has left the town," and that shared the same fate— (A laugh)—and there was no one there to contradict it. He would give them a most cunning proof that the regis tration was the very pivot upon which the issue of the battle depended. It was the opinion of a great man—a man of great authority among the Tories—he meant Sir Robert Peel. It was after he had been sent for from Italy to take the helm of affairs in this country, and after he had pub lished that strange epistle from Tamworth, called by some a " manifesto," but which the French would call " mystifi cation," and their Irish neighbours across the water would call botheration"--(A laugh)—it was after this that a dinner given to him at the Merchant Tailors' Hall, he told them that it was in the House of Commons where the battle was to be fought.—(Hear, hear.) Registration, he told them, must be the point which they must guard against, and without they did so, they (the Tories) would he van quished. Now, this was the point he wished them to ob serve—take the advice of the enemy. It would, in a poli tical point of view, be—" A light unto their feet, and a lamp unto their path."—(Cheers and laughter.) In this respect it was clear they must tread in the path which their opponents had marked out. He thought it too bad when these great men, the Tories, assumed to themselves all the wealth and intelligence, and influence, and respectability, &c., in the place ; that they could not avoid, at the same time, calling them (the Reformers) all the hard names they could speak of.—(A laugh.) Now, lie would bet them a trifle, that it would not be long before they should hear that they were designated as the "mob"—(Cheers)—an ig norant rabble. However, he knew better ;he would tell them that knowledge had made not a little progress among them. He had been subject to their dressings fur the last twenty years, and in that Hall had been pretty well schooled, and he was not now going to be put down and walked over by them.—(Cheers.) However, it was one consolation to know that their ink could not poison, and that their pens could not murder.—(Laughter and cheers.) Acting upon upright and conscientious motives, lie did not care two-pence what they said.—(Hear, hear,. hear.) The Registration was the Reformer's Magazine, in which they should keep their powder—not, however, for the pur pose of murder. There was one personage who had spoken in terms not to be misunderstood of powder ; and he could not help alluding to him. He was as queer a devil as ever wore a head.—(A laugh.) He was a commander of their Orange forces, and was, to boot, a reverend parson, and he had given the Orangemen the following advice i—“Tsegt ip God, and keep your powder dry." He trusted that i n battle they would discharge their duty faithfully ; that they would level their guns at their enemy, and fire their 'bullets effectually, by coming forward and givipg an honest vote. —(Much cheering.) Capt. Corles then proposed the first resolution, which was as follows : " That it is expedient to form in this City an Association, having for its object the procuring a full, fair, and honest Re gistration of all persons qualified by law to be Electors of this City, arid, at the same time, to counteract the corrupt practices of the enemies of neform,.to uphold the free and pure exercise of the right of suffrage, and to convince the ignorant and pre, judiced that the correction of abuses, and the amendment and consequent preservation of our national institutions, are the sole objects to which the views of' Reformers are directed." Mr. COATES, in seconding the motion, briefly spoke in recommendatory terms of the objects it had in view. Mr. F. ELGIE proposed the second resolution, in doing which lie congratulated them on the manner in which they had that day assembled to answer a call so suddenly made upon them. It convinced him that however the Reformers of Worcester had on other occasions been blamed for their apathy, that there existed within their breasts a flame which required but the trumpet to be sounded in their ears, and they were the first to come forward in the grand struggle of freedom.—(Cheers.) It was a fact, which experience had proved to be too true, that the great evil among those who professed liberal principles in the city of Worcester, was a want of unity.—(Hear, bear.) He would inquire from what that want of unity among them arose? Wag it because there were not among them individuals, Reformers, as strong and ardent as ever deserved that name ? Was it, be would ask, that they did not compose a body of nu merical strength sufficient to return two Liberal Members to Parliament ? No ; it arose from this. They had no plans arranged before hand upon which to act—no sys tem to keep them joined 'together—no directing hand to guide the vast rimehine.—(Loud cheers.) And thus the Tories, by their plans, their arrangement, their discipline, became the victors. That bad been the cause, in a great degree, of many of their defeats ; and he thought he might say with safety, that had it not been fur that reason, they should not at that time have been blessed with Mr. Bailey as their representative.—(A laugh.) But the film was now being cleared away from their eyes. A blow from the heavy hand of experience had aroused their latent energies, and that it was to prevent a recurrence of so great an evil that they were that day assembled to form themselves into one common band, having one common cause at heart. So that whether opposed by time indefatigable exertions of' the Tories, joined with those means which at the last election were so unsparingly used, they may be enabled to set up against them a fi:or!t, which their exer ti ons , their arr ange - Ce' nor even their bribery, can ever pu ll heers.) thPre over was ft period d rn o e w n n ts, or th d e e ir st d r i o s y c . i_ph ( e when the supporters of liberal principles were called upon to come forward and unite themselves, it was at the present time.—(Hear, %Vhon ho saw that a larg e b o dy o f " irresponsible" in dividual s were oppos i ng an d thwarting every measure which a liberal Administration brought for, ward, he Could not imagine that such a state of things could long continue, lie Wanld inytire, then, what wag to be done ?

Mr. Elgie then referred to the other objects which the Association had in view. He stated that it was not in its principle or design exclusive—it embraced . all who thought proper to come forward and enrol themselves as .menal,ors to assist in the common cause. He would place no liin't—he would fix no bound—he would invite every individual in the city, be his station what it might, to come forward, if he be desirous of promoting his country's good—if he be desirous of supporting his Majesty's present Ministers'in their patriotic endeavours to benefit this coun try—if he be desirous of preventing bribery, of putting a stop to intimidation—if he be desirous of opposing the cor rupt practices of their opponents—and of upholding the free and pure exercise of the right of suffrage —to come forward and become a member of the Association.—(Continued ap plause.) Mr. Elgie concluded by proposing the following resolution : " That such Association be now formed, and that it be called " The Worcester Reform Association," and that all persons friendly to Liberal principles, may become members thereof." Mr. GREENING seconded the motion. Mr. J. HALL proposed the third resolution, which was seconded by Mr. J. WiLicEs, and was as follows : " That George ,Munn, Esq,. be elected President, Mr. Robert Hardy, Vice-President, and Mr. W. D. Linghain, Treasurer, and that they be ex-officio Members of the Committee." The fourth resolution, which contained the members of the Committee, was moved by Mr. D. GEORGE, and se conded by Mr. WALTER... Col. DAVIES having been repeatedly called for, and his name. received with reiterated cheers, he presented him self on the balcony,. and was greeted with acclamations strong and long continued, which, having ceased, he thanked them for the flattering token of their approbation. He re marked that he came before them with much pleasure, as a staunch, an old, and long-tried Reformer, but more espe cially so, when he recollected the close bond of union which had existed between them for so long a period.—(Hear, hear.) But he should not have presented himself at that meeting if he had not been much pressed by a respectable deputation who had purposely waited upon him, and strongly requested him to do so.--(Hear, hear.) It was gratifying to see so numerous an assemblage as were met on the present occasion to form a society so important as a Reform Association. It showed that the flame of liberty and of patriotism was not extinguished in the breasts of the Reformers of Worcester ; it proved that, whatever apathy existed - elsewhere, the citizens of Worcester were deter mined to do their duty. But when he recollected that he was addressing, in the assembly before him, his friends and supporters, it rekindled emotions in his bosom which he felt difficult to express to them. He would, however, leave a subject so closely connected with himself, and speak to the object of the meeting. They were met to es tablish a Reform Association, with the view, particularly, of attending to the Registration of Votes. The registra tion, if properly made, was a strong hold of the Reformers ; but if neglected, it was a dead letter ; and indeed worse than a dead letter, for they would be much better without it. Unless every effort at that point was made, their opponents would arrive at the goal before them ; they would take every advantage of the apathy of the Re formers. Having urged upon the meeting; to attend to th e Registration o f votes, an d th e rev i s i on of lists, the Gal lant Colonel alluded to the collision between the two Houses of Parliament, and lamented that the Lords had not conceded to Ireland those privileges which were con templated in the Municipal Bill. He deeply regretted that they should afresh open the wounds in that distracted country which that measure would have tended considera bly to have healed. Ireland was bound to demand equal justice and equal rights with England and Scotland.— (Cheers.) The Lords had, however, thrown down the gauntlet, and he had no doubt the people would be pre pared to take it up.—(Applause.) He believed the coun try would not allow them to deprive Ireland of her just rights.—( Hear hear.) It was n o t t o b e en d ure d t h at 200 men, however high their station in the country might be, or great their talents and influence, should set at defiance the wishes of twenty-four millions of people, and oppose every just measure of Reform which a patriotic Ministry brought forward, and deprive eight millions of their just rights and privileges.—(Cheers.) But a remedy which would compel the Lords to retrace their steps had been provided by the Legislature ; and would not the people use the weapons of the Constitution, and force the Lords to yield to the just wishes of the nation. It was in the poinr of the people to do it. Much had been said about Reforming the House of Lords. He (Colonel Davies) thought it much more easy to talk about it than to put it into practice. He .feared that a change there would not be a final step, and the ultimate consequences of such a measure, he dare not contemplate. It had; he was ready to admit, been necessary on some occasions to make most important changes in the State, and even proper to sanction rebellion, but such occurrences, he trusted, would not happen in their time. He trusted then they would use the constitutional means which were placed in their power.—(" We will, we 41,5') eeeceived that in all probability there was a dionolotion of Parliament at hand. He trusted that when that event arrived every elector would exert himself as though the success of the struggle depended upon his individual efforts. He was bound to say that at the last election those in whom was vested the franchise did not faithfully discharge their duty. Hear, hear.) At the last contest, ovory species of bribery and corruption which the Tories could devise, had been resorted to.—(Hear, hear, hear.) The electors were in a state of apathy and unconcern. But notwith standing which, although Sir Robert Peel was placed at the helm of affairs, lie was not able to retain it, but was compelled to give up after a short trial. The victory on the part of the p eop l e was not ,Itli i sietit to influeooe the House of Lords. They ninst, then, at the next election shew their deterteimtion, by sending Reformers to the mope of Commons, that wise and liberal measures shall be adopted. In the last Parliament there was a majority of two hundred Reformers i and in the last session there had been an increase, as compared with the previous one, of more than from 30 to 87. If at another election the people should discharge their duty properly, and send to Parliament a large majority of staunch and upright Re formers, the Lords would be compelled to pass those -mea sures which the people demand. For many years they re. sisted emancipation of the slaves—opposed Catholie eman cipationHrefused to repeal the Toot and Corporation Act, and threw out the jlcform Dill, But the people made themselvos hoard, and obliged even the Lords to ea their own words, and pass those impor tant measures.--.(Hear, hear.) This was done in an un reformed House. If the people obtained so triumphant a victory under such a corrupt state of representation—if they now spoke with a voice loud as thunder, the Lords would be compelled to crouch beneath it, and quake before the sound.—(Loud cheers.) If they wished that the pre sent patriotic Ministry should remain in office—that the Dissenters' grievances should be redressed—that the Pen sion List should be revised—that equal rights and equal justice should be afforded to Ireland, they would attend to the registration, If they neglected that they would neglect an Important duty, and if they neglected their duty they would again have the Tories in power, and it would be im possible to say what might be the issue. He would ad vise them to keep the Tory faction down, 'for like the ser pent of old who tempted Eve—they deluded all they could, not only women, but men too.—(A laugh, and "We will.") If they did not now come forward and exercise their rights in a faithful manner, they deserved to be slaves.—(Cheers.) If they placed their necks for the heels of their enemies, they deserved to be trodden under foot.—(Loud Cheers,) Colonel Davies then expressed himself favourable to the Vote by Ballot, and observed that he considered it essential to the free and unbiassed exercise of the elective franchise. -(These remarks wore received with several rounds of applause,) I'ho gallant Colonel concluded by assuring the ineetinm of' his intention to offer himself as a candidate for their suffrages whenever an opportunity arrived. He observed that they had tried him as a representative for a number of years, during the whole of which lie had discharged his re sponsible duties in an honest, faithful, and conscientious manner, and should he again become their repregeatative, he should undeviatingly pursue the same lian pawhket, (Three-times-three hearty PlltAll t and cheers more, were then giveq tq the gallaat Colonel,) Mr , Vii , cl4., ill a shops oomplimentary speech, proposed the thanks of the meeting to Mr. Hardy for his services in the chair.

LONDON UNIVERSITY. Saturday, at two o'clock, the annual distribution of prizes and certificates of honour took place in the theatre of the University. , The attendance was numerous and respect-. able. Among other persons of distinction present, we observed the Duke of Somerset ; Mr. Spring Rice, M.P. ; Mr. Tulk, , M.P. ; Mr. Brotherton, M.P. ; Mr. Tooke, M.P. ; Mr. Potter, M.P. ; Mr. P. Stewart, M.P. ; Mr. Strutt, M.P. ; Mr. Hume, M.P. ; Mr. C. Lushington, M.P. ; Mr. Pendarves, M.P. ; Mr. Leader, M.P. 1 and Messrs. Henry Weymouth, Isaac Goldsmid, and J. R. Mills. Mr. SPRING RICE in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN said that it was delightful to him to think, while thus witnessing the success of this great Insti tution in the development of intellect„, that he could refer to the illustrious names who came4orward on previous occasions to discharge the same duties.—(Lood cheers.). He trusted that the meeting had them in spirit,-0— • had with th em th e m i g ht y m i n d o f t h e ..at they (Lord Brougham) t o w h om - great p ersonage 1.1 74.! its foundation.—(L aw l London Unive rs it y owe d _ be forot . ten- t . n - And therefor e l e t it never ore especially there, and t all meetings as seniblwj for objects connected with edu a cation, that their feelings and their hearts should turn to the man who had the courage and the perseverance to apply successfully his tminent talents to the great ohjeCt of giving to education a new and much more extensive development.—(Cheers.) He hoped that in a week or a fortnight the London Uni versity would have not only the honour of communicating knowledge, but the privilege of bestowing all those badges or symbols of knowledge whick other Universities can confer.--(Tremendous cheering, which lasted for syme mi nutes.) And he must be allowed to say, that when he (the Chairman) had first had the honour of meetinc , with the Professors and Council, on the subject of conferring de grees, they said, " Let there be the fullest competition," for they were satisfied they had nothing to fear from the com petition of other institutions. It was delightful to him to see the recognition of a principle of liberality on the part of those connected with the London University ; but he was not surprised, for that was the principle on which the in stitution was based.—(Loud cheers.) It had afforded him great satisfaction to witness, at the late examinations of the University of Cambridge —a University with which he was intimately connected—so many of those who had studied at this institution distinguishing themselves. There was one who had so distinguished himself as to receive the fourth honour —receive it, did he (the Chairman) say ; he did not receive it, though he had earned it, and it was awarded to him ; there was a bar when he advanced to the table—he was a Dissenter.—(Loud cries of " Shame.") The meeting then broke up. IRISH MUNICIPAL CORPORATION BILL. REASONS OFFERED BY THE LORDS IN CONFERENCE FOR DISSENTING FROM THE AMENDMENTS OF THE COM MONS. The Lords participate in the conviction expressed by the Commons, that a good correspondence between the two Houses is essential to the well-being of the British mo narchy ; and it is always a subject of regret to them when, in the performance of their duty, they are compelled to take a different view of any important measure from that which has been adopted by the House of Commons. The Lords are earnestly desirous of removing all just causes of complaint, and of promoting all well-considered measures of improvement in all parts of the United Kingdom.' Impressed with these feelings, the Lords were anxious to co-operate with the Commons in carrying into effect some of the important objects of the Bill for the regulation of Municipal. Corporations in Ireland, although there - one principle i n th at Bill i n which they were u r.,,ble to ,vas concur. They assented to the dissolution of ii ;: practical effe c t o f w h ose const i tutions ,orporation s , th e s sonable dissati s f act i on . a subject of r ea - It did not appear VD, thern place that p ar ti on t ar fora, a d v i sa bl e t o es t a bli s h i n t h e i r of local government which was proposed hl the C-°--nnons ; but they lov*l"h > a" were not without th e that the Wo Houses mi g h t agree upon provisions ,omplishing at once t h e i r common object, of re rnove:lg a just cause of complaint, might at the same tame Secure the due administration of justice in cities and towns, preserve the Corporate property for their respective benefit, and leave their local government under Acts volun tarily adopted. The Lords coincide in the opinion that it is not gene rally expedient to introduce, in the form of amendments, matters which may seem to require the more mature con sideration which is given in its successive stages to an ori ginal Bill ; but on this occasion the most convenient mode of procedure appeared to be that which enabled' the Lords to make the fullest communicatidn of their views to the House of Commons. The Lords remain strongly impressed with the belief that the system of local government proposed by the Com mons would, in the actual state of Ireland, be the present cause of party triumph, and the continued source of party and religious dissension. The Lords earnestly desire the tranquillity of Ireland ; they are unwilling to adopt a measure which would, in their apprehension, supply new occasions of collision to the adhe rents of different creeds and principle's. They are prepared to do equal justice to all ; but it can not always be assumed that, by the grant of similar institu tions to countries differing in their circumstances, equal jus tice will he done. The Lords are unable to acquiesce in the proposition now made by the Commons, that Corporations, as recon structed by the Bill, shall be confined to twelve cities and towns, because it is in those cities and towns of larger popu lation that the most extensive evils would, in their opinion, result in such reconstruction. The Lords disagree to the amendment whereby the exist ing Corporations are to be eontinued in eighteen towns They are reluctant to circumscribe the extent of the gene ral relief they deem it expedient to grant. Neither are the Lords prepared to concur in the peropo sition that the Act of the 9th year of the late King George IV,, to make provision for the lighting, cleansing, and watch ing of' towns in Ireland, and to give the power of taxation for such purposes to elective Commissioners, should be im posed upon twenty cities and towns. Anxious that there should exist the power of taxation for local purposes where ever its existence might be desired by the inhabitants to be taxed, the Lords had not suggeSted any alteration of, that Act. They had afforded new inducements to its voluntary adoption by giving the means of placing the surplus property of the Corporations to be abolished at the disposal of the Commissioners who might be elected in the towns with which such Corporations are respectively connected. The Lords readily acquiesce in the desire of the Com mons, that whenever that Act may be adopted, the whole corporate property shall be at once transferred to the ma nagement, of the Commissioners elected under its provisions. But the Lords must call to the recollection of the Com mons that hitherto the inhabitants of towns in Ireland have very generally refrained from availing themselves Of the power of' local government and taxation so offered to them. To render indispensable the election of Commissioners, to whom would be confided the power of raising taxes for local purposes, would, undoubtedly, be in accordance with the principle adopted in the reform of MuniCipal Corpora tions in Great Britain, but the Lords cannot but appre hend that tho proposed intervention of the Legislature to overrule a manifest reluctance to be so. governed, and to ho so taxed, would not, as the Commons appear to anti cipate, have any tendency to satisfy the just expectations of his Majesty's subjects in Ireland, or to rnaintaia and strengthen the Union, The Lords h ave a b sta i ne d f rom insisting uponseveral amendments to which the Commem appear to attach much importance. They acquiesce in the pinion that oflieQrs connected with the administration of justice in Ireland should be re moved front looal influence, and placed under the direct AlAthwity of the Crown. They have willingly consented not to insist upon amend ments which conflicted with the immediate application of the principle thus ,estahlished. It will be a mAttet of sincere regret to the Lords if their adherence to the more important amendments made by them in the Bin, and their inability to concur in the new iwo poiitiens made by the Commons, should have the effect o f leaving a just cause. of complaint without a full and present remedy, The Lovds will, however, still entertain the hope that d the two H ouses of Parliament, maintaining the good un zealouslyerstanding which happily su b s i sts b etween t h em, and co-operating in the discharge of their common duty to the country, may at no distant period devise such measures of roferm in the administration of local affairs as may give real contentment lay effecting real improvement, prerpote prosperity, by promoting social and religious peace. in, the cities and towns of Ireland Weans° the retention of the preamble as amended by The House of Lords is rendered necessary by the other amendments on which they insist. Because the Bill, as it passed the tleatoo of Commons, having practically extinguished al; existing Municipal Cor porations in Irel an d, and tho Lords having assented to that Provision, the cAtrAtlon between the two Houses is no longer whethq Vo.r,A).o.rAtms should be abolished, but whether shemlet be re-constructed. Bcoatiae in the present state of Ireland the general ease and contentment of the inhabitants of cities and towns therein would not be effected without moditioa6on of the principle of Local Government, as applied to England and Scotland respectively, different 11.,44n and more extensive than those which have hem proposed by the Commons. Because the publics good is the only true object of legisla. tion ; and, eccording to the difference of circumstances, Because the Sth, 9th, 10th, 11th, /.1?t11, 18th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th, and 18th of such clauses contain regnlatiot s of police which the Lords consider to be sufficiently provided for by the Act passed in the present Session of Parliament for establishing a constabulary force in Ireland. Because the remaining clauses contain regulations re specting the Corporation s p ropose d to b e tibolacd. The Lords have taken into their consideration the rea sons annexed by the Commons to the proposed amendment to clause 1, which reasons apply to other subsequent clauses to which the Commons equally disagree. The Lords observe that the Bill, a, passed by the Com mons, contained certain trusts la certain Corporations, being trustees casually in office on a given day, notwith standing those persons might have ceased to hold any office, by virtue of which they were trustees, and that the clauses objected to were intended to prevent the detriment which might have arisen from the provision made by the Com mons, that all such trusts should cease on a day named ; and the Lord Chancellor then made such orders as he might see fit for the appointment of trustees and the admi nistration of the trust estate, if Parliament should not have otherwise directed. The Lords are of opinion that it was inexpedient to throw upon the Lord Chancellor a duty he could not satisfactorily discharge, and more especially as no provision was made by the Commons for the security of the trust property, in the event of the duty imposed upon the Lord Chancellor not being in any case performed. The Lords therefore thought it desirable to continu e the several trusts in the several persons in whom they were con tinued by the Bill, as it passed the House of Commons, until Parliament should otherwise provide. • The clauses objected to contain other enactments oh viously necessary to meet cases which, arisi• ng out of the proposed abolition of Corporations, had. not been provided for by the House of Commons ; but. 'ail such enactments, proceeding upon the same principle, are of a char a ct er sub ject to th e f u t ure di rect i on of T2ari!.ament. For these reasons the Lords insist upon these several clauses : Because it is necessar i to provide for the security and management of Corporate Property when, by the enact ments of the Bill ins;_sted upon, Corporations shall be abo lished. Because it is property in advisable to place th e management o f such the local hands of Commissioners removed from i .d'ltence, and responsible for the due performance of "!'r unties. Because the management of an inconsiderable property, and the right of nomination to some offices of small value required for the collection of such property, or otherwise necessary, cannot, in the apprehension of the Lords, create an influence inconsistent with the freedom and indepen dence of the several cities and towns in Ireland. Because the amendment proposed by the Lords appears to them to be necessary, with a view to the title to the lands which the Commissioners are by that clause em powered to purchase. Because the provisions to which the Commons have dis agreed appear to the Lords to be necessary, on account of the peculiar circumstances of the right of patronage to which these provisions were intended to apply. Because there are duties to be performed by the officers to whom that clause refers which the Lords agree with the Commons in regarding as highly important to the mercan tile and commercial interests of the several cities and towns in Ireland, and for the performance of which no sufficient provision would otherwise be made. LETTER OF MR. WOLFF, THE MIS- SIONARY. SUEZ, APRIL 13.—1 have just returned from MCiunt Sinai, where I had been already once fifteen years ago. I left this time twenty-eight Greek Bibles and Testaments to the Monks upon Mount Horeb, and an English and French Bible for travellers who may happen to visit that spot, and also a Prayer-book of the Church of England. The Monks there reach an age of one hundred years. I saw one, Gedeon by name, 105 years of age. I preached to the Bedouins around Mount Sinai. Before I had left Cairo I saw the Viceroy several times at his own request,, who always received me very kindly, and gave me a strong firman for enabling me to traverse his country without being molested, and not to impose any cus tom upon my eight cases with Bibles, which I carry with me. His Highness recollected, smilingly, that he had been obliged to exile me six years ago from Egypt for having sent proclamations to the Mahomedazis. There are now at Cairo some very respectable French and German gentlemen ; I mention M. Depeil, the French Vice-Consul ; M. Fresnel, an Arabic scholar ; and Dr. Brunner. The Roman Ca tholic 'missionaries at Cairo distinguished themselves most. honourably in the time of the plague ; they went to every Christian who was infected with it, and gave to them every spiritual and temporal assistance in their power. Several of those missionaries fell as victims of their zeal. The re spectable French gentlemen here call Egypt the Botany Bay of France. Enfantin, th e 'pow of the Saint Simo nians, was at Cairo when I was there, living with three Saint Simonian women. A dirty set they are. I learn that those women are spinsters, thirty-six years of age, privileged flirts, and prostitutes by principle. I asked the Consul why he does not send back those canaille to Eu rope. He replied, " France is glad to get rid of them." I learn that at Jiddah is now a respectable German naturalist, MonSieur Schamber by name. With the kind. permission of the Rev. Mr. Lieder, the English missionary, I preached in the English chapel, when not only the most of the English gentlemen and, ladies, but also the respectable French and German gen tlemen attended. On my return from Mount Sinai I visited Tor, situated near the Dim of the Bible, but the Christians there, who are of Arab descent, are very ignorant, with whom I could do nothing. But I met there Monsieur Botta, a French (query, Italian) naturalist, and a son of the famous historian. I had with him long religious conversations, for he is a Deist. • To speak a little more of Mount Sinai, the convent there, called the Convent of St. Catherine, was built in the time of the Emperor Justinian, who sent there about 1,000 Christians from Sercia, as slaves to the convent, who were the builders of it. The descendants of these Servians are still them, bra their ancestors were compelled to embrace thQ Ilality:nedan religion, at the commencement of the Mabore.edan era, but they remain still under the protection of 1 -I .;e monks. They are called Soobiaan. Some of them were lately baptized by the monks. The steamer is now expected at Suez with which I intend to go as far as Mocha, via Jiddah ;s thence cross over to Mosawah, Adwah, Gondar, and Shoaki, in Abys sinia. I have with me aM. Bethlehem, a, clever Arme nian, who is servant to the King of Abyssinia. YOU'S, truly--JOSEPH WOLFF. The Rev. Joseph Woolf was at Suez on the 13th ult., being about to embark for Djedda, in the steam-vessel which was then awaiting the Indian mail from Alexandria. During Mr. Wolff's sojourn at Cairo he was elected a member of the Egyptian Literary and Scientific Society recently established there by the English and French lite rary residents of that city. He had received a pressing in vitation from a high quarter to visit St. Tetersburgb, in order that he might be presented to his Majesty the Ho peror of Russia ; but our informant does not state whether the Rev. Missionary had relinquished his intention of pene trating to Abyssinnia and Timbuctoo, in consequence.--. Malta Gazette, May 18. • I MR.
