VORWICH INSURERS and MORAL 1 1 DIFFICULTIES. —The above celebrated performers Very naturally attempt to divert the attention of their followers, dutirig the time of Conveying them from the ruined and broken UP Norwich Union Society to the New Norwich Joint Stock Company ; but will the members suffer their attention to be 'drawn off their proper interest by vulgar personalities, ground less assertions, and false quotations, directed against another office ?

If a large increase of business were procured by the Norwich Insurers in 1821, it is not wonderful, considering. the vast ex pence incurred to procure it—their captivating tale of wealth and profit, their profuse distribution of pamphlets, bills, and advertisements, and above all, their stimulus to Agents to ex tit theinselVes, by giving them ten per cent. out of the premium, which is double the usual commission allowed by the County and other principal offices. What was the effect of all this ? Before the year was ended the concern was ruined and finally dissolved ! Here the " Meral Difficulties" of the Norwich Insurers ap pear insurmountable. They had told a delightful tale of pros perity; but, upon their being charged with fraud in the Court of Chancery, they told an opposite story ; they then pleaded " great distress ; ' losses and differences had determined them to refuse centintiing the polices. This plea allowed, and the storm blown over for a while, they revive the delightful tale of prosperity, and bespatter every one who reminds them of their having previously sworn the direct reverse. -But as the plea of distress was given upon oath, subject to the penalties of perjury, and the song. of prosperity is only subject to the trouble of writing, and the expense of printing, which the Norwich in surers do not seem much to regard, it is excusable of the two to prefer their statement given upon oath, and to believe in 4.heir distress. The only ,suestion after all for the public to consider in effecting insurances, is not which Fire-Office gets most busi ness, but which dOes ii best; Dr. Solomon, no doubt, procured more patients than Drs. Bailey, Halford, Sic. all put tother. 'But it is not quite certain that the patients e'f the fi rst Doctor were in the safest hands. Using similar means to the learned Tic. Solomon, the Norwich - Insurers procured a great increase of insurances last year ; but before the year was out, the So ciety was extinguished, and the Members in Chancery. The petty vexation expressed at the uninterrupted harmony which has always prevailed at the numerously attended Courts 13 1 Directors, and the General Meetings •of the County Fire- Office, is natural enough from persons who are notorious for incessant displitei and lawsuits with each other and with every body. The assertion that " the County Fire Office actually made a canvass, hotite by house, through the Metropolis," is auda ciously repeated. It is wholly false. That disreputable expe dient was used -by the Norwich insurers some years back, and until their concern was driven from the Metropolis. Their corps of canvassers then tendered their services to the County Fire Office, but were refused employment " The three iiiiportant questions put to Mr. Bignold, on the dissolution of the Norwich Union Society, it is said he could very easily answer, but he will not;' t': ", but he cannot," might Pave been said ; and, if I have occasion to resume. my pen, I may perhaps state why.

To T. TAYLOR, Esq., No. 9, New 1 13ridge-stieet, London. HONOURED SIR, IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the A year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal, which; from its obstinately resisting every course et medicine prescribed by the most eminent of the facdlty here, andasti-: deigoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dieL charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to be of the most inveterate nature. In ti.c spring of last year my disorder had got to such a head, as nearly to put a period to my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head, one on each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful manner ; my right w , its dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of . ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had alko two large nodes unit, was very much discoloured, and gave me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm in bed, as nearly to deprive me of rest ; in this lamentable state, 1 was recommended by Mr. J. ':rhompson, (who .receised so great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills, which I began to (loon the 21ith u. May ; in the course of a fortnight 1 began to receive benefit—in little more than a month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed — soon atter, the sores on my legs healed also ; leaving, how 7 ever, considerable discolouration in the shin, and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the blessing of God, an,l a little longer pm severance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ; tine nodes dispersing, the skin reg; - '-'ng its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going thus because, by your liberal advice and mediCine, perfectly freefrom all my former complaints—have recovered my former spirits a lid strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state having continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew u.e, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, hut beg you, fur the good of other suffering mortals, to make' this my case as public as possible, as I shall on every occa sion; in so doing you will greatly oblige , Sir, your grateful, obedient , very humb e servaut.

[FROg " JOHN BULL" OF YESTERDAY.] religious and. political reform are now connected ; nor can the avidity with which works of " a modern philosophical" nature, or those which abound in licentiousness, are circulated, have escaped the most cursory observer. Here it is that the attack upon LAWRENCE galls the Re formers. Through the medium of lectures—of works not pro mising,. not holding forth political principles, or religious scepticisms, which might shock and deter a reader from open ing ,the contagious VOlinne—the abominable doctrines were to be Insinuated into the minds of the pupils of a particular branch of science; and it was hoped, by proving Itilax to be the creature of nature, and ,not of GOD, to shake the faith of a whole race of persons, whose subsequent influence over their fellow-creatures would, perhaps, be greater than that of the members of any other profession. . . . But this is not all. While these graver and better organised attacks are made upon the MEr4 of the risiog generation, let us turn to the insidious arts with which our WOMEN are at tacked. Every body knows that the progress of the French Revolu tion was facilitated by the association - of the other sex, and that the activity of the Boudoirs was soon found to be an over match for the vigilance of the Bureata e so here, while the fathers of families ate lending' their voices to strengthen the clamours for Reforin, and pledging diemselves upon the hustings to improve upon the institutions of their ancestors, we have only to enter the drawing-rooms or dressing-rooms of their wives and daughters to discover the progress of regenera tio4 under another form, but covering and embracing the self same principle of se?f-destruction. . . 'Lortl.Btnixei is to the higher orders what HONE and CAR - LILE are to the groundhogs : his principles are only .distin guished from those of his fellow-labourers by being more circuitously laboured under the obscurities of poetry. Lord BYRON'S works, like Mr. LAwnetxcE's, have been refused the protection of the law. •We have occasionally pointed out the indecencies of the wanton lyrist, MooRE, but they ore merely immoral in a worldly sense, and too flimsy to be mis chievous, even if they aimed at worse and greater things. But the more serious arnilgamation of love and heroism with the principles and practice of outcasts and prostitutes ; the artful combination of splendid attributes and awakening interests with the most abandoned dereliction of all. sociel ties, open to our view a fehetne of universal subversion, that none but a Dtmoer can - contemplate without honor; and -none but a DEMON could Suggest with premeditation. When it is known, at this moment, or certainly within e very short space of time, two adventurers, distingutshed only as libellers of their God and thkir fellow-creatures, are et prestly summoned by this Lord to form .4 league to embody a system more effectually to undermine the peace and morals of the world, it is time to sneak out, and to warn our country men and countrywomen of' what is intended against them.— Let every father of a family, not yet infected with the popular frenzy ; ask himself what is really meant by REFORM in the political, and REGENERATION in the moral, sense of the terms. Let them go farther ' and inquire into the policy of supporting a pauper Peer inhis . degradirrg pursuits, by suffer ing his wife and daughters to purchase prinf.iiges for his profit which strike at the root of happiness in this world, and ex - - elude every hope of it in another ! . BYRON, as a poet, would be as ephemeral as a BitristmEr. or a VELOCIPEDE, but. the, novelty of broaching blasphemy and, amatory . licentiousness, and cone them, through the medium of an hitherto moat respectable bookseller, in all the pomp of wove-paper arid hotpress, has, insinuated theminto quarters ' where our mothers would' have deemed themselves insulted by the imputation of ever havinghealdthem named. We have alluded to BYnoN's as being a parallel case with LAWRENCE'S ; but hewever much we May admire certain flasheS•of talent in the poet, we must admit that the lecturer, on the score of ability, has greatly the advantage of him ;. and in so far, we are of opinion that Mr. REI,ieuELL. ' the present ob ject of. Radical attack, deserves well indeed of his country for having so ably taken the dangerous adversary of our happiness at his onus weapons, and tiniS armed, and thits.onlp:—dtiven him froM the field. - • . . It is impossible to view the rapid and almost uninterrupted progress of Infidel opinions, through every avenue of the pub- Lc press, without the keenest apprehensions of their ultiinate effects upon the human mind. We speak of Infidelity in the literal, as well as more extended sense of the word ; embracing not only apostacy from religious faith, but a scepticism upon all points connected with moral restraint, and the higher obli gations of social life. Let it not be supposed, that we are stepping out of our line, or that we affect a philosophical tone, in order to speculate upon remote or contingent results. We consider the subject as public writers, anxious for the public welfare, and resting our hopes of its durability upon those moral principles which have alone dis tinguished U 3 from all the other nations of Europe—which haVe taught us to app:eeiate the blessings of a Censtitutton in Church and State, which could never have existed, or been matured, but under the direct influence of a high-toned morality, and a just sense of what we owe to the mercies of Providence. It is against these that the phili - mophists of the nineteenth century, first covertly, but now in the face of day, array their indefati gable and combined efforts. We are led to these reflections by the case of LAWRECE'S Lectures, delivered at the COLLEdE of Suiyiroxs, decided a few days since in Chancery. Called as public attention has been to these lectures, we cannot but feel considerable surprise and indignation at the conduct of those, who have the controul and management of the Institntion in question, who permitted their continuance through a course. A lecturer is in full pesseSsion of his audience., and whatever he assumes and lays down is received without question or con tradiction; and. however strong and conclusive the opposing arguments may be, they must, from the mode of their expres sion,. come too late to counteract the mischief which such tene ts as those of Mr. LAWRENCE cannotfail to do. . Mr. RENNELL, the Vicar of IcENsfiedroN, in his capacity of Christian Advocate in the University of CAseRRIDGE ably attacked these very lectures; and his work upon the tendency of the principles and doctrine's with which they abound, is, indeed, a most powerful and masterly performance; but we very much doubt whether the antidote ever reached, those npon whoni the bane had been inevitably suffered to operate for a certain space, of time. . . . The young surgeon's reading naturally lies less amongst books of Divinity than athougst works in his own line ; and, therefore, the evil of these lectures is manifold ; for, by engraft ing upon the pupil's studies, ScepticisM, Atheism, and modern Philosophy, he imbibes the poison With its professional know ledge, the farther and more intricate. ,pursuit of which, out of the lecture-room, naturally turns him awav_Prom that style of reading which alone • could modify or correct the mischief he cannot fail to encounter whilst in it. _ The iIIowNING CHRONICLE of Tuesday quotes from some Sunday Paper (and thereby makes itself a party to) an attack upon Mr. RENNELL (who is _mistaken, by these blunderers for his father, and celled Doctor,) for his admirable work, to which we have just alluded, and which was written ex-officio, in his capacity of Christian Advocate, upon the subject of Air. LAWRENCE'S Lecture. * . . The CH119141c1.F.,. or at least tlaq paragraph it quotes, terms this Mr. LAWRENCR an accomplished physiologist and elec. gant writer," and calls ". obvious, , the frantic wickedness of " laying etcientifie researches under restraint for the sake of " Christianity." Have we lived to see this printed and published in one paper, and quoted and repeated by another, whose circulation, though confined, still exceds that of. the journal wherein the appalling lines first appeared. Is CURT sTIANITY talked of as a thing to be slighted ?—to be laid aside ?—to be brought. into disre pute in our public halls, in the 4chools.of our youth ?—h this part of the system, by which every thing, worth possessing is to be undermined ?—Can those who were before sceptical longer doubt the generalitti of the abets to overturn the esta blishmentsof religion, and thence to effect the great end of po litiCal REVOLUTION ? But the paper speaks.of Mr. RENNELL's "hue and cry," and the persecution of Mr..LAW4ENCE, as if Mr. 11.7cerHELL had really been using thumb-screws or, hot pincers to the lecturer. Mr. RxNtir.t.t. . persecuted Mr. LAwRENCE only inasmuch as the great cause of truth and religion is superior in force and power to the blasphemous ravings of Modern Phi losophy, and the irrational attempts to controvert the word of Gon himself. . „ Those who read . of Mr. RENNELL'S persecution will be surprised to tied that it consisted, only of a book, Written in opposition to another-hook, composed of the same materials, and circulated through the same envied Medium—a:free press. This book is called a " senseless cry yet the, paper confesses, that " it has obliged the modest author to discountenance the " publication of his lectures.". , So that, after all, the .persecution turns- ont,M be .a.n answer and refutation by Mr. RENNELL of Mr. LAw.HENcris follies and ignorances, so striking and conclusive as to haVecOrevineed Mr. LAWRENCE himself of his faults, and to have induced him to discountenancehis own work. . . Some people might be surprised to fid . political papers taking up this subject so warmly, but those who know how actively, and with what sanguine, hopes of slice* the ex- . tended. efforts at demoralization are carrying, on at ihis.rno meat, will not be astonished at the variety sif methods adopted. for effecting it. it is impossible not to perceive how closely THE WEATHER.

It soon became known that these despatches announced that the Reis Effendi had, by two notes respectively ad dressed to the imperial Internuncio, Count Lut , row, and Lord Strangford, the British Minister, officially notified the formal rejection by the Porte of the Russian ultimatuth. . . This decision, unanimously adopted by the . • Divan, has been announced by Tartars (couriers) to the Paella and Prince Milosch, at Semlin. All the Chiefs of the Janissaries, and many of the Uletnas, were present at the I)ivan. In haughtily rejecting the - Russian ultimatum, the ~ I)ivan, it is said, manifested great dissatisfaction at the warmth with which the.ntediatina POwers :.., have supported the demands of Rusiia.
