At the deptotftre of the a-1 er arer IG,OOO of them were lying in the hospitals ; some e:t,....tats had seven or [eight bombed men unfit for duty ; i,t;ro horses, had prriithed, owing, say private letters, to tf,e warit.of food! . 1f this be the condition of the host of Crusaders enlisted in the service of the " monarchical princi p:t•," the Duke de Gallo will find the most 'Serious difficulties of Vfe mission which he leas nndertaken half snrmotinted to his hand.. A political nirderstanding between England and France is spoken of in - tome hf the Continental circlet, which it is.thutipit may produce 'effects of great importance upon siorstestis at this moment agitating the public mind of Europe. ,o ion of these two leading kingdoms, for the attainment of au specific•end, cannot fail to have considerable influence upon the measures of every contemporary power. it remains, li.,wever, to be seen under what imperious motives, or under what new-horn maxims of Government;thellonse of Brunswick cin venture, for the first time, to identify its policy with that of the'llouse of Bourbon. The fact may lie trite; but it is not yet authenticated. [New Times.] We hardly think it worth while to notice a Radical assem blage called, with singular impudence, a Meeting . of the County of Betio. A private letter from Reading gives, in half a dozen lines, a jester idea of the thing than The Time: in four tedious columns. The lathy authority informs us, that the spacious place in which the Meeting was held was crowded by respectable Gentlemen," &c. &c. Now the spa= cious place turns out to be a dung-yard; the respectable per. suns present are Sir Francis Burdett, Cobbett's Hallet, and Nor. or five of toe hackney Orators of that school; but of Illy ryal respectability ul the County, not a name. The Morning Chronicle is labouring hard to affix the ap pellation of " an outrage" to the conduct of the Sheriff at Rilotainhant ; but it will labour in vain. Jost so, when, a twelvemonth since, an immense body of people assembled at Manchester, and when a:Fighted, trampled each other t, death, an attempt was made to fasten the imputation of homi cl.le upon the Miniaters of Justice, and to send the transaction cl,wn to posterity with the calutunious title of " The Man che%ter Massacre." But the endeavour wholly failed. The people of England arc not in the habit of forming a delibe raic judgment upon the strength of mere declaration : proof necessary to make an impression on their [ninth; but proof was not then forthcoming—it could not be produced : and no one now speaks of " the Manchester Massacre" in ally other tome than that of sarcasm and derision.—(Pid.) • [Morning Chronicle.] ft happens, singularly enough, that in the quarter during which tie Ministerial Papers have been incessantly boasting of a wonderful revival'Of trade, and an increased enjoyment 4P:eon:lit:its by the people, the Revenue should have fallen short of what •it - was far the same quarter last year by 4.10,32a1. The increase of the Revenue of 1831 over that ut 1820, is a great deal less than what the produce of the new Taxes was estimated at, though, as has been well observed by one of ourcontemporaries, in a year during ael id, a ll Ile necessaries of lire have been unusually abun• d,ut and cheap, nothing could have prevented the people frorn 'increasing their purchases of taxable luxuries and su perfluities, but diminished means. In those branches which remain •on their former footing, there is a considerable decrease. In the Post-office, for instance, which has al ways-been considered tha best gage of the national commerce, there. has been a decrease •of not less than. 86,0001., that is a sumo' little short of the produce furall Scotland. In the Stamps, too, there has been a considerable decrease: Snell' is the result of ti.e wonderful ins rrovement in our situation, of which we have heard so much : The truth is, that t tie country is in such a state, that abundance merely enables the workman to. live without dtawing so Mach from the Parish as before ; but it neither-gives Kim the means of extending hi., consumption of food, nor of purchasing .any of those comforts to which, in better times, he was accustomed : while the whole oft he Agri milturists have hren brought - by that abundance-to the very Mink of 'Ulu. Thus all are strangers to pruspei ity, though tire evil may press with'gre.ter severity On one class at one timelhan on another. One 'year the Manutacturers are suf fering the extreme of wretchednens; the next the situation of the Agiieoltniists is equally wretelted. [Morninw . Post.] • Whilst.

To conclude these obsemtions with out some praise to the Millie authors of such beneficent" actions, would be to Make a tame record of their tenevolence, but, wit hoot a wish to flatter, or to overstep 6, truth, it is impossible to suppress the impressions which hare been made upon 113 by the -conduct of this illustrious family, who nobly regardless of recent events, persevere in an uniform line of conduct to the public, as well as to those dep , ndent upon them, thus setting au example of steadiness and attachment to the county from whence their. resources chiefly flow, not often equalled, and never exceeded by any noble - mats of the land.

At the Meeting of the Presbytery this day, Friday, January 5, Dr. Noms I,tottght forward his promised motion for a Loyal Address to the Throne, expressive of the.orinioos of the Pyeshytery on the present state of the country. He had Pre : - paved an Address which be took the liberty bf proposing.— It was - seconded by Dr. GRANT. • . sfr HARRY moscREIFF rose, and opposed the allegations of the Address, as far as they imputed any degree of irreligion and disaffection to the Inhabitants of thii country, sufficient to authorize the present Addtet.s. In whiCh op/million the Hon. Baronet was supported, in a sueech of consider..ble length and ability, by the Rev. A. Thomson, whO also.contended, that, Under the present cirt timstatices, when the objects .pursued at public meetingt were, simply to vote for the dismissal of Ministers, and fur their contiduatice in office, the Address would be considered a party Address. It was impossible : it could be viewed in any other light, when Gentlemen came there from their-Council chamber, where they had been voting and signing such an extravagant Address as they bad-beard of, and pulled out of their pockets another, which they considered the very thing for the Presbytery to .vote and sign, in co-operation of their Conned-chamber Addrest. After one or two • other Members had delivered their opi nions against the Address, the Rev. Drs. IND:As anti GRAM` replied. The Address was agreed to without a rote, Sir Harry Mon- , ; creiff contenting himself with delivering in his reasons of dissent, which here immediately signed hy'the Reverend A. Thomson. anti other Members are expected to sign it before • the next meeting:a the Presbytery.--(Erlinincrgic Sear.) PRESBYTEIty OF GLASGOW.

Abe Reverend Mr. Lapslie seconded the motion. The Rev. Dr. Taylor, jun. hoped it world pass unanimously. The Modera tor put the question. The Rev. Dr. Chalmers objected to any inierference with politics on the part of the Presbytery. He recommended to them rather to devote their exertions to the religious improvement of their parishes.—(Applause in the gallery.)—The Iler. 11 r. Lapslie made a warm speech in reply to Dr: Chalmers. Altodirg to the applause, he told eli‘ dience that they ought to rerbember that they were not. now in john•street ,Church. the _Reverend Gentleman was more than once admonished to aarets his observations :th.the Chair.l. It was then resolved - that there should be an Address: and one, prepai ed.ny the Reverend. Dr. Gihb, was propOsed. A number of - modificatitms were made in it by the Moderator and others. The Reverend Dr. Chalmers said, that he was more and - more convinced that there should be no Address. The Reverend Dr Muir though t. it ab sOlutely .necessary that the Presbytery should express their loyalty on this occasion.' The ReV. Mr. Clason in a neat speech • opposed the Address. The 'Rev. - Mr. Mainsail cor;carred in. the .opposition. Some further. discussion en- • sued.

The CIIALFDIAN, in charging the Grand Jury, obseried,that, although the present calendar ,did not contain any unusual number of cases out of the ordinary way, yet he feared them was too much reason to believe that crimes of the greatest magnitude were alnioA perpetually committed in the neigh bourhood of that plaCe.. The beinousneSs of crimes exclud ed them from forming a part of the calendar for these Sessions., as the Court had no jurisdiction over capital offences ; but the , gentlemen whom he addressed had nevertheless, as the Grand. Inquest of the County, the duty of inquiring into such cases,. although they were not triable in that Court. Some cases of breaking prison would come under their inquiry; this was ars. offence which, under some circumstances, was capital; but it had also its shades of gradatioq. It was their duty to deal. with the bills as they came before them, according to the. evidence, and to put the parties on their trial before a petit: Jury, if they saw in the evidence in sopport,of the bill rea sonable ground to make the chatge matter for further in quiry. Where they saw no sod; ground, they would mark the bill, in the language of the law , " ignoramus If.. its the course of their inquiries, they encountered any difficulty,. the Court would he ready to hear them, and give them ins best information and assistance.
