The object of the present note relates to clauses formerly re cognised by both parties as inviolable, and to those fundamental principles, the uniform and re gular form of which is essential to a state of Peace.

The farmers :—their latidi4g before them but inevitable ruin d let)t :"rci s have no prospect but that of reduce 41 0 8 ' °ll t of which it is impossible for them to th e r r up their present stile of living, and to pay the, - ta Aes, and the charge of mortgages upon deti estates, or the interest of their ordinary t)t1„8:---and,ive are sorry to add, that it is not to be ous"(led, nor is it even possible, that these rum itlt,,e"sequences to the-landed and agricultural e re is should result in any advantage to-the 0 4 , ° Pie at large, —such as the permanent abun thgtee and cheapness of agricultural produc e ,— that it is the inevitable tendency of the pre t cours e of things, to result in the abandon -ie.. re'tqt. of the cultivation of the inferior soils, in a diminution of the .661 annual amount of tricultural produce, and in the comparative i, 4 eity and high price of all the necessaries of 4 e. We understand that at the late Holkham meeting notivithstanding the seeming hilarity , Which prevailed at the convit'ial board, and ' the silly exhibition of party feeling in poli tics which was made by Mr. COKE and some of his Whig friends, who were more occupied in idly complimenting one another on their own consummate talents, political purity, and disin terested patriotism, than in devising means of re lief for their distressed tenantry, there was at bot tom but one feeling of despondency and despair amongst the great majority of both land-owners and land-occupiers, who inwardly felt that the re lief of which they stand so much in need, was not to be obtained by dispatching bumpers to the health of Mr. BENNETT, • Lord ERSKINE, Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, or theformidable Mr. JOS EPII HUME, nor even by entrusting these or any similar immaculate patriots with the administration of the national affairs. It was in vain to attempt raising their spirits even by the exhibition of Mr. COKE'S fine crops, or by details of new and more pro- , ductive processes in Agriculture, or by the pro duction of improved Implements of Husbandry. The Agricultural Report had informed them, and their own observation, the state of the Mar kets, of Corn Warehouses, and of their own De positories, confirmed the truth of the infor mation, that they must look for relief chiefly to a diminution or production—that is, to the ruin of the greater portion of themselves ; and fine crops, therefore, more productive methods of management,and improved implements, offered,not the remedy, but an aggravation of the evil for which the remedy was required ! This desperate state of the Agricultural Interest is, however, so alarming—is of such vast importance to the future condition of every class of the people, and to the revenue, that we are astonished it has not excited a greater degree of public attention. The Re port may be considered as a digest of the opinions of some, of the most celebrated and popular (though perhaps not the most accurate) Political Economists of the present day ; not, it is true, as to any efficient remedy for agricultural distress, .but as to the. causes of the distress, and as to the primary consequence, (the diminution of production) to which the continuance of that distress must give rise. The Public, therefore, are left (the -Ibause of Commons being declared an unfit place • for the discussion of questions in political economy) to discover a remedy. Mr. Ric.tano has proposed his remedy,—which is to cultivate none of our land that is not at present worth a rental of 20s. per annum, and at once to render the country dependent upon fo reign nations for the supply of a great part of its food ! What says Mr. COKE to this proposition of his friend Mr. RICARDO ? What say many great and little Land Owners to this scheme of one of their Whig Oracles, which would go far to annihilating their incomes ? What say the people to a proposition which [ would annihilate a large mass of capital, curtail immensely one of the great branches of their industry, and expose them, in the event of a war, or of a general failure in the crops on the continent, to the danger of an absolute famine, with little or no advantage, for all this positive evil and prospective peril, to any one but the fund holder? Mr. COKE'S land, we believe, is generally worth not more than 15s. per acre. It would there fore be thrown out of cultivation by Mr. Rrcaano's Plan, and be reduced in value to about ss. per acre, which would reduce the net income of that Gentleman by not less a sum, perhaps, than 40,0001. per annum !! ! The farmers would have to seek new occupations, or their capitals would be, in a great measure, ren dered useless. Their labourers would be deprived of employment, and would become an additional burthen upon the already overburthened poors'-rates ; and immense sums, to the amount of not less perhaps than 10 or 15 millions per annum, now employed in rewarding the in dustry of our own people, and in fertiliz ing our own soil, would pass from our hands to stimulate the agriculture, and to increase the population and power of countries with whicl we might ere long have to wage an unequal war.

OXFORD ELECTION.-There is .no foundation for the representation contained in a Morning Paper of yesterday, that the Earl of LIVERPOOL supports the pretensions of Mr. HEBER ; and it has excited no small surprize among the Mem bers of the University, that in canvassing for votes on the part of Mr. Tharrt, the name of the Dean of Christ Church should be studiously in troduced to create a bias, at the very Moment when any intention of interference is professed to be disclaimed.—(Morning Paper.), Lord OXMANTOWN, eldest son of the Earl of ROSSE, has announced himself a Candidate for the seat in the representation of the King's County, vacant by the appointment of Mr. J.

The remarks in question . are d:stin:guished by taste, judgment, and .can dont'. We have deemed it an act of mere duty to pay- this just tribute of :respect to a Lady Who has adorned the Literature of our country, whose works, to use the words.-of Dr. JOHNSON, have" increased the public stock of - harmless pleasures," whose private life has been marked by kindness and benevolence,•and who has raised herself by superior talents, per severing industry, and laudable prudence, to 'a state of honourable independence.—We should not close this article without stating that after the Comedy,- which was well supported and highly applauded, the two daughters' of Mr. BaANnory came forward, and displayed such musical powers and taste, as procur e d th em ver y warm appl ause , and entitle them in no slight degree to public encouragement and protection. NEw HA - vmAnacT TurATHE.—The popular Opera of Guy Mannering was the dramatic at traction of last night to this Theatre, _and it is but justice to say. that, on the whole, it was very well supported, On this occasion Mr. LEoNI LEE, from the Bath Stage, made his first appear ance in the part of Henty Bertram. His vioce is pleasing- but not strong, and he sings with skill, but is..rather too Bami.uwrcAL in his ffburishings. He was well received. It is obvious that he has studied music more than acting, but allowance should be made fora first appearance be:fore a London audience.—Mr. J. RussEEr. was promi, nent in the performance of Dant& :Dinmont.--, MISS CAREW was all that could he desired in Lucy Bertram; her acting was interesting and her singing delightful.-- s - TAyEEunE was a good Dominic Sampson, and Mrs. IL JOHNSON was suf ficiently terrific in Meg Merrilies.—Miss R. Coital was the Jzdia Mannering ; her singing was justly applauded, and her acting is obviously improved.

He had a small property, by which he had been supported for some years; but finding he was likely to outlive it, as it was. reduced to about 150/. and feeling the apprehen, sion of want more than the natural love of .life, he came to the resolution of ending his days, by starvation. To effect this dreadful purpose, he took nothing but Water for a month before he died ; at the end of three weeks his body Was wasted to a skeleton, and a medical gentleman was called in, who advised him to take some nourishment, but this he refused, and even dis, continued the use of water.
