The Public will form' their ( : r wniudi,'lncut upon th e nature o f those attacks, and the quar i: fr(irn W hich they p rocee d .

DISTURBANCE IN THE NE W . CATHOLIC CHAPEL. MANSION-HOUSE.—The, beadle. of the new Roman Catho lic Chapel, in illoorfields, was summoned before the LORD MAYOR, on the complaint of Mr. Bromley, a respectable citi zen, on a charge of having committed an assault upon him dur ing the performance of the service. Mr. Bromley stated, that on the afternoon of Sunday last he went with a child of his to see the new Roman Catholic Chapel, and that on entering the door he was beset by persons with plates, who demanded a contribution in -a manner that was not customary in such places on such occasions, and he re fused to give any thing, particularly as l ie did not mea n to stay, but merely went to see the interior of the building. On his entering the body of the church, a person came, up to him, and demanded threepence for his admission there, and intimat ed, on the demand not being complied with, that the coin plainant had the alternative of going out if lie did not choose to pay. The complainant answered, as 4t was a place of pub lic worship, that no one had any right to make such demands; he therefore refused either to pay or to retire until it , ;:cited ' The - dispute caused a crowd of the congregation t.7-I.at - -Nr round them, when the complainant's child expressed that It should be ,suffocated by the heat, and the complainant. unwittingly elevat ed it in his arms. This circumstance appeared to rouse all about him to a most serious ferment. They were mostly ()Nile lower class of Irish, and spoke sharply in th e i r own l anguage at the complainant. The organ was stopped, and all was at a stand. Whilst the complainant was thus surrounded, the defendant came up to him, and presenting his mace of office, first desired him to pay the money asked by the seat-keeper, or to go out ; and on the complainant's refusing to do either, the beadle seized him by the collar, shook him, and dragged him forcibly out of the 'church, with a degree of outrageous violence and savageness of manner, such as the complainant said he had never witnessed, even in cases of desperate resis. tance.. Four other gentlemen who were present and interfered in behalf of the complainant, were likewise ejected in the same uncerenionious manner. For this assault the complainant claimed the interference of his Lordship, not as a private but as a public matter; and to show the parties that they were not justified either in exacting money for admission, or in forcibly expelling,-any one who conducted himself peaceably in. a lao.: of pub,ixc Vitirship, which the complainant de c l ar ed h e had done: those who knew him' would declare he was incapable of acting otherwise. , The beadle admitted that he had turned the complainant out, but it was as much to preserVe the peace as any thing else. The fact was, that the founders of the church had an, outstanding debt which they wished to payoff; and fir that purpose they were under the necessity of raising some money at the doors. The complainant had certainly been told, that unless he would pay the customary fee he could not be allowed to remain there, and on his refusal he had been put out-with no more force than was actually necessary. He contended that he was perfectly justifiable in acting as lie had done, particularly as it was to preserve the peace of the church, which had been broken by the conduct of the complainant. Several of the assistants and of the congregation came for ward in support of the conduct of the beadle. The LORDMAYon was decidedly of opinion that no one had a right to exact money in a place of public worship,. and consi dered the conduct of the beadle on this occasion highly repre. hensible. The way to preserve the peace was not to turn out persons who did not choose to submit to exactions, in the un necessary violent manner in whichit had been sworn the beadle had turned out Mr. Bromley ; but as the latter had brought the matter forward on public grounds, and not for the personal as sault, he would probably forego a prosecution if the satisfaction of an apology were offered. , Mr. Bromley said lie was perfectly willing to accept a written apology properly worded. • The hcaalc positively refused to make any apology. The LORD MAYOR then ordered him to find bail to answer for the assault, and the beadle having no bail present was given into custody. _ _ THEATRICAL ORDERS, &c. BOW-STREET.—Late on Wednesday evening a young man of gentlemanly appearance, and five young and interesting females, dressed in the most fashionable style, were brought to the Office, and underwent an examination before WIL LIAM BECKETT, Esq., on the following charge, which was made by the constable into whose custody they had been con fided, namely, that " of uttering and riublishing as true to the Check-taker of the Haymarket Theatre, certain false, forged, and counterfeited orders (not for the payment of money, but) for the admission of six persons into the boxes of the Theatre." This definition of the charge had considerable ef fect on the risible muscles of the persons present in Court; and even the fair culprits, sonic of whom, although greatly alarmed and suffused in tears, could not refrain from paying a similar tribute to its apparent ridiculousness. ' On their being placed at the bar, their gay dresses formed a striking contrast to the persons who generally occupy that un enviable situation, and the worthy Magistrate expressed that he felt the greatest regret at the necessity which obliged him to place them there. The Check-taker was then called, and he then stated that in consequence of several forged orders having been passed to him, he was desired by the Managers of the theatre to mi nutely examine all that were tendered to him in future, and "that about' seven o'clock on that evening the six persons pre sented to him six orders, purporting to be signed by Mr. Terry, one of the performers; he directly discovered that they were forged, and for the purpose of securing them, gave them checks and let them pass on ; he then informed the constable in attendance, who took them into custody, and finally con ducted them to Bow-street. Mr. Beckett said, lie must call upon the parties to explain how they came in possession of the tickets, which was imme diately undertaken by one of the Ladies, who was at least six feet high, and who seemed to possess courage above tlle..rest in proportion to her size. She stated that she was desirous of treating her friends, and hearing that a man of the name of So himon, residing- in Russell-court, Drury-lane, sold orders very cheap, she had applied to him, and he had let her have the or ders in _question for half-a-crown a piece. Mr: llECxE i rr then remarked, that as Mr. Terry was not present to prove that the signatures were forged, he did not feel justified in detaining them in custody, but would take their words to appeal at the office at twelve o'clock the next day (yesterday), and in the mean tune he would have the man Solo mon apprehended. The caption of Solomon being effected, and all parties being present, the case accordingly came on y e st er d a y be fore Richard Birnie, E'Sq. and on the circumstances being recapitulated to him he proceeded to interrogate Solomon concerning the orders, and he readily undeitook to prOduce the person who had employed him to sell them. Two of the patrol were sent with him, and in about half an hour they returned with a man in their custody, who gave Ins name as Reach, but refused to answer any questions concerning the orders. kir. Terry being in attendance, his deposition was taken, an d the prisoner,,Roach, was committed for re-examination. The parties then left the office, and if we may judge from ap pearances, with very different feelings to those with which they entered it on the preceding evening. DROPPING CHILDREN. MARLBOTtouGII-STREET.WiIIiam and Mary Mason Tomlinson were brought beibre G. ('ARRANT, Esq., charged by the parish officers of St. James's with leaving two children exposed in the street, and dcsertiDg them, on the 20th .of June, 1820. Mr. Rice, solicitor and vestry clerk, ,accom panied the parish officers, and it appeared from their statement, that on the day named two infant children of the Defendants, William and Francis, were left by. the unfeeling mother and another woman, suspended from the knocker of the door of Mr. Knight, of Great Marlborough-street, inn basket.— The parish took charge of thcm, and placed them out at nurse at Wimbledon, and until within a few days their pa rents were not known ; but the natural and endearing tics of parents to their offspring was not quite extinct in the mother, whose frequent visits to her children, as their aunt, excited suspicion, and an inquiry being set on foot, she was found out to be the mother. Th,e children were passed to Lam beth palish, where they belong, and the defence of the parents •was poverty. They were remanded to St. James's Workhouse, until the woman who was with the mother of the children can be brought forward. MODERN LEAN DER.—THOMAS MORGAN, a sea man of his Majesty's ship Euryalus, had fre quently swam from the ship to the shore in the night to visit his sweetheart. He, on' Friday night, was drowned in the attempt. Verdict— " Accidental Death." 5 0 PRO VINCIAL JOURNALS. [FROM THE LEEDS INTELLIGENCER, AUG. 27.1 The people of Ireland, by the reception which they have given to the King, have done themselves immortal honour. Every party feeling —every sentiment of hostility be tween Protestants and Catholics—is hushed, and all is concord and loyalty. 'What a contrast to the disgraceful conduct of some Englishmen (how unworthy of the name !) who arrogate to themselves the character of " Friends of the People ;" and whose only pretension to this title is, a malignant and personal enmity to royalty.—These men, not content with opposing the measures of Ministers—have laboured with all the energy which hatred can give —and all the zeal which the most inveterate malignity can inspire —to degrade the kingly office, and to ex pose to contempt and hatred the person of their sovereign. The spontaneous effusions cf genuine loyalty which were so general on the memorable 19th of July, evinced however, that the labour of these reptiles has been in vain. They proved that the great body of the people are loyal; and that the noisy and presuming partizans of the radiCal faction, arc by far the most insignificant part of the nation. • What, however, this faction wants in numbers, in respectability, and in talent, is made up by a perseverance and an ardour, as disgraceful in the partizans of a, bad cause, as it is praiseworthy in the adherents of a good one. In this respect, they set us an example which we should be emulous to follow. We have a King of whom every Briton ought to be proud; we have a Constitution, the best and most perfect of any in the world ; we have a country, the most favoured under heaven. These are blessings the per. petuity of which we ought earnestly to wish. Let us then as good subjects of our King, and as true Englishmen, lose no opportu nity of inculcating the principles of loyalty and subordination amongst our connections ,and dependents; let us earnestly set about the work of counteracting the poison which the Hunts, the Cobbetts, the Carhlas, the flumes, and the Creeveys, have so industriously disseminated; let us imitate Ireland in affec tion to the King ; and in a detestation of the principles and practices of revolutionary demagogues.—lt is the interest of the people to -rally round the King. They are the mutual support and protection of each other. This was abundantly exemplified in the late reign, when, but for the support of the people, our " Good old King" would have been the slave of an overbearing aristocracy; and when, also, the firm countenance and protec tion of the Monarch preserved his subjects from .becoming the sport of demagogues, or the mere tools of a base oligarchy.— Loyalty to the King is an Englishman's best privilege ; it em braces obedience to the laws, and subordination to the consti tuted authorities—tor a man cannot be loyal to his Sovereign who disobeys the laws which are his Monarch's guide ; or who treats with contemprthe officers who have to administer them. Knaves and fools may sneer at the devoted attachment of a peo ple to their Monarch ; they may decry the duty of allegiance, and enlarge on the " divine.right of insurrection;" but wise and good men know that—in a limited Monarchy like ours, where the laws control the Sovereign for his people's goal; and where justice holds an even balance between the highest and lowest in the land,—Loyalty is a . generous and ennobling principle ; which prompts men to promote the noblest ends of patriotism, by diffusing the spirit of harmony and content through the land ; uniting all parties in one -social compact, the bond of which is the Illonarch ; and the motto " God save the King.— THE HARVEST. The weather for the last few days has been extremely warm, and has produced a most bene ficial effect upon the corn, which is fast approach ing to a state of ripeness. The cutting of bar ley has indeed become rather general in this neighbourhood. Some of the crops have been a good deal laid by the late rains, and we have heard of others being affected with the rust, but these misfortunes are not to any great extent.— (Newcastle Chronicle.) The wheat harvest has commenced in our im mediate neighbourhood, and we are happy to state that the crops, in the course of the cutting, promise nearly their usual produce. We have been assured by a most respectable llereford shire farmer, that such is also the case on his own and surrounding lands. The hay crops, he likewise states, were luxuriant rather than other wise, but - the fruit has almost wholly failed.— ( The Cambrian.) The harvest has commenced pretty generally in this neighbourhood, and with a very favourable prospect. The crops of wheat are generally very good ; and although they have latterly been lodged in many parts, from the heavy showers, the grain has riot suffered much. Oats and bar ley are thin in some places ; but-upon the whole, a fair crop. Beans very good ; and the turnips promising.—(huhl Advertiser.) - The crops in this county are coming forward with great rapidity. Oats have been cut in some places.; rye, on light soils, is pretty generally fit for the sickle ; and the wheat harvest will com mence in various quarters in a few days; the produce of each abundant. Turnips are a fail ing crop; potatoes, almost everywhere, uncom monly luxuriant.—( Carlisle Patriot.) It does us much pleasure to record an instance of very considerable liberality towards the cha ritable institutions of this city, on the part of the late lamegted WILLIAm WLETstr, Esq. manu facturer here, who was lost in the Earl Moira packet, near Liverpool, and who has left £4OO to the Ttoyal Infirmary. 200 to the Lunatic Asylum% 100 to the Magdalene Asylum. 100 to the Deaf and Dumb Institution. 100 to the Parish Poor of Port Glasgow, 100 to the Female Benevolent Society there. All these donations, though merely mentioned in a letter written two years ago, the legal heirs of Mr. M'Leish have in the most disinterested man ner paid, without even the deduction of the Le gacy Duty.—(Glasgow Paper.)

NATIONAL RELIEF. MR:EDITOR-If there are any errors in the following plan fOr the relief of the Country, those who have more experience can easily correct them. As the tenantry are much in arrears to their landlords, and from appearances, will be still more so next year, some great measure must be adopted to afford general relief. Let there be a property-tax of three per cent. on the Funds, on land, and on the rent of houses, with excep-. tion of those foreigners not resident in the British Empire. Suppose the above tax on property amounts' to 30 millions Sterling, and 18 millions of it is allotted in addition to the Sinking•Fund i which will in a few years reduce that Hydra, the National Debt, to a shadow, and 12 millions Sterling will remain for abolishing those taxes which press heaviest on the public. Suppose the following, in which a return is • made to the-Go vernment for the 500,0001. arising from the duty on horses used in agriculture lately abolislied,; for it is unfair to Ministers and injurious -to the_ Country, to abolish any tax without giving a sum equal to that which the revenue is deprived pf by the loss of the tax : • • - Agricultural Horses abolished • £500,000 Tax on Tea (to prevent Smuggling) . 3,100,000 . . . . . 1,530,06 Tax on Salt Tax on Coals (supposed to be) . • 1,500,000• the Tax on Wines to -increase their con.; I A 700 . 0 sumption . . • Shop Tax (supposed to be) . . . 1,000,000- - Other Taxes to the amount of . . 3,620,000 ; ~ £12,060,000,• A tax on the exportation of salt may be twenty times its cost, as every grain of salt will be want ed for our fisheries and manufactures. This with exceptions.—A tax on the exportation of coals, three times their cost. This with exceptions. Tea has long since been universally 'nfed, and Mr. PITT, by his Commutation Tax, thought it ought to be relieved from taxation. Do the same now, and that article cannot be smuggled ; but it rests with the Excise to prevent its. -adul teration.—lf there is notax on Tea, there Ts 'not any Foreign Nation can compete with • the 13'6- tish East India Company. Since the ports of the Brazils have been opened, a wine merchant at Exeter now only exports goods to the amount of 50001. a year to Portugal, though before that event, he sent goods, (chiefly coarse woollens) to the amount of 60,0001. a year, so that the trade to Portugal has declined eleven-twelfths, and the duty on 13ritishwoollens has very lately been doubled in Portugal, . and raised to 30 per cent. Portugal is, therefore, of less consequence than formerly to Great Britain, and which prepares the way' for equalising the duties on all foreign wines. This will render wines much cheaper in the wine countries, and thereby create a balance of trade in our favour. As three-fourths the du ties on wines are proposed to be taken off and 750,0001. granted in lieu, wide will fall more than three-fourths its present value in the wine coun tries. A pipe of wine, which costs now, with the duty, 1001., will then cost only 25/. So that a man who receives 10,0001. a year from property in the funds, or land, or the rent of houses, and who pays 3 per cent. on that property, amount. ing to 3001. a year, if he now consumes - _ four pipes of wines annually, he will save (by 4 of the duty being taken off) 751., on each pipe, which together makes 3001. and equals 3 per cent. on his property. Further, as more wine will be consumed, the Revenue will be improved by this reduction of three-fourths the tax on wines. At the Peace the Income Tax was de cried in the strongest terms : though the late Mr. Fox, the Leader of the present Opposition, in creased that tax by making it ten per cent.: The Income Tax became so unpopular at the Peace by the Hue and Cry raised against-it, tlfat en the question being put in the House of CoMmons as to its continuance, his Majesty's Ministers de clared they had no such intention, and the tax was abolished. Every thinking person then per ceived that a moderate Property Tax was requisite to relieve the Country of those taxes,which bore heaviest : and if at the Peace a tax of 3 per cent. on property in the Funds, on land, and on the rent of houses, had been established, the present distress_ would have been avoided, and 100 millions of the National Debt would now have been paid off; and five millions, its interest, would have been the property of the public, either to continue the reduction of the debt, or to relieve the Country of five millions of taxes. The Income Tax, established ,by Mr. Pitt, and raised to ten per cent. by Mr. Fox, enabled Great Britain to continue the arduous contest ; and which was finished by a glorious Peace by the King's present Ministers, to whom our.Ernpire is obliged for that happy event. A Property Tax is, therefore, worth trying to retrieve our affairs; and Agricultural Distress would 'be much relieved, if the interest of money was at three per cent., whiA cannot happen, whilst the Na tional Debt is 800 millions sterling.
