W. B. S. TAYLOR, Hon. Sec. F YORKSHIRE. Lord Morpeth and Mr. Strickland, who had been in vited by the trustees of the Leeds Cloth-halt to make their canvass together, began their canvassing tour this day at Leeds. They were invited to a public breakfast at the Commercial Buildings, whe , e they sat down with AA many gentlemen (all of liberal principles) as the room was cg panle of containing. From the breakfast-table the candidates, accompanied by their friends, proceeded to the Coloured Cloth-hall, and perambulated the streets of that vast building, betwixt the rows of clothiers and merchants. They afterwards ascended the permanent hustings formed by the steps in the area, and addressed an assembly of several thousand persons. They were welcomed with the most cordial greetings.

By the Author of "Sketches of Irish Character," BIRMINGHAM POLISH FESTIVAL. sured, Gentlemen, that, for my part, I will never cease to serve my country with the same perseverance, and with the same devotion ; and I trust that, with the powerful assistance of the British people, we shall be successful in our efforts ; and that the flag which you have presented to the Poles will be their best leader to the walls of Warsaw."--(Loud cheers.) The party then broke up. THE ELECTIONS. A few weeks ago a Polish Association was formed in this town, for the purpose of forwarding the views of the Polish Literary Association in London, diffusing information relative to the history and wrongs of Poland, and likewise with the avowed object of promoting the cause of Polish liberty and indepen dence. At a subsequent meeting of the Directors of the Asso_ ciation, it was determined to celebrate the anniversary of the revolution of Poland, by a public dinner on Thursday last, the glorious 29th of November. In conformity with this determi. nation, a most splendid commemoration festival took place at Dee's Royal Hotel, on the day named. At five o'clock precisely, dinner was placed on the table, and the room was immediately filled by a most respectable com pany, not less than 200 in number. Mr. THOMAS ATT WOOD took the Chair, having upon his right Count Ladislas de Plater, and on his left Mr. Dempster Homing, one of the candidates for the northern division of the county. The tout ensemble, when at dinner, was splendidly effective, and superior in point of brilliancy to any thing we have before seen in Birmingham. After the cloth was drawn, the trumpet an nounced that the Chairman was about to propose the first toast, a practice which was followed before every toast proposed by the Chairman during the evening. FIN SB URY-MR. BARRAGE. L •st night a meeting of the electors of Finsbury, resi dent in Holloway and its vicinity, was held at the King's Head Tavern, Holloway-road, to hear Mr. Babbage ex plain his political opinions. Mr. BISCHOFF having been called to the chair, explained the object of the meeting, and observed that Mr. Babbage was one of the most eminent literary characters of the age. ( Hear.) Some thought that for this very reason he was unfit to become a Member of the House of Commons, but that was preposterous, as talent could not be better applied than to the affairs of the nation. Locke, Addison, Steele, and the immortal Milton were instances of literary men being able politicians.—(Hear.) He alluded to Mr. Bab bage's newly-invented calculating table, his improvements in machinery, and to his patient and indefatigable atten tion to the manufactures of foreign countries, by which he had enabled this country to compete with them. Mr. Bab bage, then, was not only a philosopher, but a friend and promoter of trade and commerce. Mr. BARRAGE then proceeded to address the meeting. Long before Reform was successful he laboured to facili tate its progress, and the firm. Reform he had now in view was a reduction of the lavish expenditure of the country by the abolition of sinecures, and the just, not extrava gant, remuneration of public services. —(Hear.) He would not pledge himself to any specific line of conduct on any question, for be thought no reasonable man could go tied and bound into the House of Commons; rather let him have the confidence of the electors in his principles, as avowed by himself, and if they were not satisfied with his principles, he would not presume to demand their suffrages. He was desirous of seeing those taxes removed which pressed most upon the industry of the people.— (Hear.) To tithes he was most decidedly hostile, and anxious that some other mode of paying the clergy should be adopted. The most extensive Church Reform was ne cessary.—(Cheers.) His attention had recently been di rected to the question, whether those who conscientiously differed from the Established Church should be compelled to pay towards its support? His answer was, that he thought it very unjust to force persons to pay for that theology which they did not approve.—(Applause.) He next adverted to West India slavery, and ob.erved, that the country had been a party to the crime ; the system ought first to he done away, and then the claims of those who might suffer should be regarded, but not as a con dition. Simplification and diminution of public ex pense would be his constant aim. —(Hear.) The pre sent system of corn laos was erroneous, and he was sure it would be advantageous both to the manu facturer and the landowner to have them altered, and that speedily.—( Hear.) He thought the Septennial Art most unjust, and, therefore, he should support its repeal. —(Cheers.) Teere were daily proofs that vote by ballot was necessary, and though he was not blind to its evils, he should be compelled to take the least of the two evils.— (Hear.) He hoped to become yet more useful to his country than he had been, and if returned, be found not only tne friend of trade and commerce, but the advocate and supporter of the rights of the people.—(Cheers.) In answer to questions put to him, Mr. Babhage stat. d further that, upon the question of free trade, he was of opinion that it should be carried into effect in all quarters; and applying that principle to India, he would nave the trade thither thrown open to the whole country. He was not quite of opinion that Sturges Bourne's Act was a mere matter of detail. He did not support the plurality of votes, and would have all the parishioners equally qua lified, as in the case of voting for Members of Parliament. —(Applause.) He was as much opposed to tithes, as the; operated in the metropolis, as he was on account of their effects in agricultural districts.—(Hear.) He was ever an admirer of truth and knowledge, and believed their dissemination among the people would tend to insure the moral renovation of the people, and the prosperity of the country ; therefore he was anxious that sores extensive and efficient system of education should be resolved on.— (Cheers. ) Mr. YENNING had heard that a man of knowledge was not wanted in the House of Commons.—(Laughter.) Certainly, while the Tory rump sat there, knowledge was not much wanted.—(Laughter.) He concluded by pro posing a motion to the effect, that Mr. Babbage was a fit and proper person to represent the borough of Finsbury. Mr. BROOKES seconded the motion, which was unani mously adopted. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the meet ing broke up. Richard Bentley, New Burlington•street. (Late Colburn and Bentley.)

LOUIS THE EIGHTEENTH.—" The Memoirs of Louis XV111.," written by himself, which have just ap• peared, will doubtless excite great interest in this country: a more complete development of the secret history of the times of Louis XV. and his depraved Court, has certainly never• been given to the public. Prince TALLEYRAND is understood to have pronounced it to be one of the most extraordinary specimens of autobiography ever published. TEMPERATURE OF ENGLAND.—The mean temperature of London is about 2 deg. higher than that of the surrounding country ; the difference exists chiefly in the night, and is greatest in winter, and least in s pring. During the wlio'e vear the mean temperature of England does not vary in different years more than four degrees and a half.—Mechanies' Magazine. _ Lord AloaraTll then addressed the electors. Having, said the noble Lord, given all the support that lay within my reach to the late measure of Reform, in the days of its discouragement as in the hour of its triumph, it will be now my wish and purpose to give it, on the one hand s fair play and free trial, and on the other to follow out the consequences of which I hope it will prove the beneficial and succes•ful instrument—that is, having reformed our ',elves, to reform everything else that needs it o: admits of ; to du so at once steadily and discreetly, not shrinking from any matter where there is evil that can be remedied, and good that can be procured, but at tl e same time con , ducting those processes with as little risk as possible of producing those shocks of affairs and collisions of patsies which are so prejadicial to the prosperous course of public affairs, and so fatal, especially, to the interests of commerce, and the employment of the produc tive classes. lam most anxious upon this, as upon every other occasion, not to practise any deceit upon you ; I sun not what is called a Radio. al, as I believe several honest and well-intentioned men among you are, but I am ready frankly to look abuses in the face; to abolish them where they are prove 1 to be such—to main - tain no privilege merely because it is sanctioned by time— to keep up no monopoly, because it benefits one cars to the injury of others--to adopt such improvements as the increased wants, altered circumstances, and advancing in telligence of the age may indicate; to look before and around, as well as behind, an 1 to move with a moving ' world.—(Cheers.) The Node Lord then declared that he was a warm friend and memher of the Established Church, not on account of any support which he thoug+•t it conferred upon the State, but because he was inclined to think upon the whole that an establishment vest in the long run the surest and safest depositary and defence of revealed truths against the assaults of infidelity en I inisa takes of fanaticism; but that very consideration ought to make him, as it appeared to him especially einxiou• to re medy its imperfections, to augment its usefulness, to di minish its causes of offence, to cleanse that be might adorn, and to reform that he might preserve it —(Cheers.) Tnere are few questions, said the Noble Lord, more im portant to a district like this than the corn laws. With respect to them, I have never held or prof,ssed but one opinion —that of thorough d.slike. While I look to se duction of taxation and removal of restriction as the best tied surest mode of betiering your condition, yet, aft. r all that has come to my knowledge, I do affirm that there [mist be some speedy and efficient steps titk n to protect young children from being over-worked in factories ; that point shall continue to engage my anxious, persevering, and impartial care.—(Loud cheering.) GEO. STRICKLA ND, Esq., then came forward, and was received with cheers. He was fully persuaded that, although the great measure of Reform had been carried, their perseverance in the cause of a radical Reform would not subside or abate.—(No, no.) I am a firm sup porter (said Mr. Strickland) of the vote by ballot, because f think it suited to present circumstances—(Cheers). — and through evil report and good report will support ir. —(Renewed cheers.) Mr. Strickland then expressed his opinion in favour of the abolition of the East India mono poly, and of a revision of the Bank charter. He was also f r the speedy termination of the accursed system of slavery in the colonies, and agreed with Lord Morpeth in the necessity of interfering so as to protect children from ex cessive labour in factories. Mr. Strickland then adverted to the Church, in which be thought a great Reform was necessary. Tithes and pluralities were not rellgion,— (Cheats.) On the subject of the corn laws he would say that in his opinion they wi re the greatest curse that ever held the inhabitants of this country, even to the agricula turists themselves.—(Cheers, and cries of " Close corpo rations.") With respect to close corporations, he thought it was descending from great things to small, and he hought the smallest of all concerns in life, was a little close corporation.—(Laught e r.) He did not like to see them have all the funds of a town put into their hands without they were responsible.—(Cheers.) Public mete ought always to be accountable for even the last farthing. —(Laughter.) He would never trust a man, even if he had the character of a saint from Heaven, unless he gave an account of it.—(Laughter.) Mr. BAINES moved a vote of thanks to the candidates far their past conduct—the best testimony of their success in future. The CHAIRMAN said it was his duty to give a toast, which he had always seen drunk with pleasure and unanimity, from his infancy up to that day, and which he trusted would be drunk to the last day of his life Was killed at the battle of Kellogg's Grove, between the whites and the Indians, on the 27th of June last, Mr. JAMES BLACK, formerly a respectable citizen of this place. At the commencement of the disturbances on our western frontier, Mr. BLACK volunteered his services to fight against the Indian., and met his untimely fate as above mentioned. He was found with his head cut off, his heart torn out, and his body- most horribly mangled._ —New York Paper. " The King, God bless him. May he never forget the prin ciples which placed his family on the throne."—(The company all rose, and drunk the toast with great enthusiasm, and three times three.) The CHAIRMAN said he had now to propose the health of another individual, who, next to his Majesty, he honoured above all mankind. He begged to give them " The health of Earl Grey May he crown a life of glory with an age of peace." —(Three times three.) The CHAIRMAN said they had drunk the health of the King and his upright Ministers; they would now drink the health of " The People, the only source of legitimate power."— (Three times three.) '4ll WORK BY THE AUTHORESS OF " MO. SILK TRADE.—The silk-weaving in the neighbouring towns round Manchester is moderately brisk ; fancy weavers particularly are very much inquired for ; very few of the common sarcenet weavers have to wait for work, although wages are uncommonly low. The sarcenet weaver cannot earn, on an average, more than Ss. per week ; the fancy weaver may earn about 12s. No doubt but the turn-out of the silk-weavers at Macclesfield has had a tendency to make work more plentiful here. Last winter above two-thirds of the weavers in this neighbour hood were entirely without work.—Bolton Chronicle. EFFECT OF Music.—ln the midst of the shouting (at Nukuhiva, one of the Washington Islands), and apparent importunity for us to land, Captain FINCH ordered the music on deck, and the moment its full and animated strains reached the shore, the effect on them was evident ; they instantly crouched to the ground in perfect silence, as if under the influence of a charm. Nothing of the kind, it is probable, ever broke upon their ears be fore ; and well might there have been a mingling of su perstition in their minds with the sudden swelling on the breeze of sounds new and seemingly unearthly.—Recent Voyage to the South Seas.

The Divorcee, &c. &c. t:ublished for H. Coburn by R. Bentley, New Burling- Street. The CHAIRMAN, in rising to call the attention of the meeting to the great subject of the day, felt considerable embar rassment, when he reflected upon the fate of Poland. His belief was that there was a God in Heaven, who watched the crimes of men and of nations, and ultimately exe cuted judgment upon them. The day might, perhaps, be dis tant when these great judgments might be executed, but it was sure to arrive at last. Therefore, he had no fears for Poland.—(Cheers.) Her enemies at present triumphed, but the day of retribution was not distant. They would all of them recollect that in ages long gone by, Poland had been the bulwark of Christendom. She had always been a rampart against the invasion of the Tartar, the Muscovite, and the Turk. Her whole history of struggles, difficulties, and dangers; of heroism, generosity, and virtue. He would not detain them much longer. A rush of ideas crowded upon his mind. Shame, grief, and rage occupied his heart ; and he was sure that they equally occupied their hearts, that they, the men of England, had been compelled to stand by, whilst the temporary destruction of Poland was effected.—(Cheers.) They would find some excuse and some consolation in the reflection, that they had themselves been engaged in a life and death struggle at home. That was their only excuse for not having interfered when the appearance of an English fleet in the Bal tic, without the firing of a single gun, would have been the salvation of Poland. Their gallant neighbours the French might plead a similar excuse. By their own generosity and confidence they were delivered over into the hands of a cor rupt and imbecile Government, and under the leaden influence of that Government their energies were cramped, and their virtue deadened. The Polish nation naturally relied upon the French and upon the English, but, unhappily for them and for Europe, they relied in vain. He concluded by giving as a toast, " The ancient and heroic Polish nation ; may their cause never be abandoned by the British people."—(Received with three times three.)

The snuff was prime, but unfortunately, when handing a pinch to a crone, and just as the Minister had begun to draw his inferences, off went the box to the not inappropriate tune of " We're a' noddin." DONALD ap plied himself to the stop catch, which he mistook, and away went the music to the profane tune of " Maggy Lauder." In the perturbation of the moment, DONALD tried to smother the box within his sporran, but at last took fairly to his heels, and on passing the rounell, dropped it, when the Precentor, enraged at this assump tion of his department, with one stamp of his foot silenced for ever this orchestra in miniature. " Tamerst," said DONALD, in a large mouthful of Gaelic, "she had mair tunes than 'I'OUGAL, the man that pits out the Psaalins, an' tat was nae tnair non twaa."— Stirling Advertiser. On Monday was caught, in the Frogmore Canal, a brace of pike, of the extraordinary weight of 481bs. The male fish weighed 221 lbs., and the female 25ilbs. To the disciples of old IzAK a view of these extraordinary fish would have been most interesting, as they were in the very height of season. They were for warded to Brighton by Mr. WATKINS, steward to her Royal Highness the Princess AUGUSTA, far the use of the Royal table.— Windsor Paper. TRANSPLANTING.— l'he gardener of C. WINN, Esq., of Nostel Priory, has succeeded in removing to a considerable distance a large ornamental tree (the Tilia Europea), which measures forty feet in height, the bole six feet three inches at the base, and the circum• ference at the extremities of the branches being 108 feet. Halifax Guardian. EFFECTS OF INTOXICATION AND PAS stow.—On Saturday night, a tailor, named JOSEPH HILL, aged 24, residing at 72, New Compton-street, Soho square, reached home much intoxicated, and some words ensued between him and his wife, on account of his hav ing spent all his week's wages. He got into a violent passion, and declaring that he would kill himself, he threw up the sash of the window, and precipitated himself into the front area from a height of 40 feet. The screams of his wife, who bad a young infant in her arms, brought assistance, and he was conveyed to Middlesex Hospital, in a dreadfully mutilated cond tion, where he died yesterday. KIRRIESIUIR.—A STAG OF SEVEN.— There was lately dug from a bed of marl in the " Meadows of Logic," Kirritinwr, the entire skeleton of a wag—eery/is elephas —in a state of perfect preservation. It is a stag " of Seven," having seven branches on each of its antlers, and its size is as great as that of any we have had an op prtunity of seeing. The noble animal must have lost its life in attempting to cross the " 'Meadows" before the marl had acquired that consistence which it now has. At the period of which we are speaking, herds of deer were ac customed to roam at large over the rich pastures of the " How of Awl's." The CHAIRMAN said, that having drunk the people of England and the people of Poland, it was now his duty to give our brave allies, the glorious people of France.—(Three times three.) Mr. W. G. LEWIS proposed the health of one of the most distinguished Polish patriots, the President of the late Polish National Government, Prince Adam Czartoryski, who did not spare either his advanced age or his colossal fortune for the happiness of his country.—(Vehement cheers.) Count PLATER rose amidst the most deafening cheers, and addressed the company as follows :—Gentlemen, it is a source of great regret to me that the distinguished individual, who is the subject of this toast, is not present at your beau. tiful Polish festival, and consequently unable to return his thanks personally. Some important business in Paris has prevented his coming back to England, but I am sure that the anniversary which we are celebrating in Birmingham will bring to his desolated and patriotic heart a great conso lation, and that the toast which you have just drunk will be highly gratifying to him. We are celebrating, Gentlemen, the anniversary of the most brilliant, the most legitimate of revolutions—(Loud cheers)—brilliant because without any conspiracy—legitimate because against a foreign Monarch, who did not, during fifteen years, fulfil the conditions by virtue of which alone Poland was attached to his dominions. Let every man who loves freedom join us and pay his tribute of admiration to the sacred rights of an oppressed people.— (Cheers.) We are commemorating the day of regeneration, though momentary, of Poland. Let her assassin know that his conduct inspires horror, and the most violent indignation in civilized Europe; that if at any time a British sailor shall reach the coast of Cronstadt, he will be more successful in his mission than a British Minister.—(Cheers.) England has the means to use coercive measures if she likes. The line of con duct adopted against the arrogant obstinacy of the King of Holland, secretly encouraged in his criminal views by some of his despotic al.ies, proves it evidently. When, then, will the day of retribution come for Russia, who, in spite of treaties, has so many times insulted the national honour of Great Britain. Every day adied a sanguinary page to the Polish history ; the nu st barbarous atrocities are committed with im punity, and without any witness on the part of England, who has no Consul even in the free town of Cracow. In the course of a very few days a decree of transportation for 5,000 Polish families will be put in execution.—(Loud exclamations of hor. ror.) This is the Russian clemency—this is Russian humanity. But shall we be surprised ? How can a tyrant be virtuous—a despot be liberal ?—(Cheers.) To-day's festival, Gentlemen, will leave in my heart the deepest sensation. So long as such sen. timents shall prevail in free England, I have hope for the cause of Poland. It is, in fact, the cause of Great Britain, and of all nations who have a love for freedom. It is the cause of Europe ; more elevated than any meal petty jealousies, than any party spirit, it was the cause of humanity, thejus tice, the rights of treaties. It has no enemies amongst the friends of lib erty, who, fortunately for the sake of Europe, are powerful by th e i r moral force and their number s.—(Ch eers.) With such elem ents, Gentlemen, i y. not th general ntet ria, Poland el ‘ l),E 'hen Poles.—(Cheers.)

Let us then be prepared for the glorious day of the triumph of liberty. Let us increase our moral force and our energies. Let us diffuse knowledge amongst the people relative to the sacred rights of other nations, and then Poland will be in the heart and the mouth of every free Briton, and the anniversary of the Polish revolution will be celebrated, not only in Birmingham, but in Wilna and Warsaw. The Count concluded his address amidst thun ders of applause. Mr. MUNTZ, after a warm eulogium upon the character of Mr. Attwood, proposed the health of their worthy Chairman. The CHAIRMAN returned thanks amidst vehement cheering. Mr. I'. W. HILL proposed the health of Count Plater. Count PLATER again rose amidst great cheering, and re turned thanks. _ _ i B v o a, price 9s. bd., and in 12mo. ss. 6 , 1. bd.

THE LONDON PUBLISHING SEASON : Mr. BENTLEY, the successor of Mr. COLBURN, appears determined to supply the reading public with abundant entertainment to beguile the dreary winter's evening. Such works as THEODORE HOOK'S " Life of Sir David Baird." " W►ld Sports of the West," " The East India Sketch Book," " Zolirab," " The Buccaneer," &c., cer tainly formed an auspicious commencement of the publish ing season. The novelties in preparation promise to be not less attractive. The same spirited publisher has an nounced for appearance during the present month, " A History of the Coldstream Guards," recording the services of that gallant regiment in almost every part of the globe. This work is written by Colonel MAcKINNoN, who so gallantly distinguished himself at the battle of Waterloo, being one of the defenders of the obstinately contested cha teau of Hugomont. To the list of biographies of those who have shed lustre on our naval history is to he addict the Life of Sir WILLIAM HosTE, from the pen of his widow. HOSTE commenced his active carter under the immortal NELSON, of whom original letters are to be given. Numerous as have been the works which have lately appeared on India, a highly interesting addition is about to be mode in the Travels of Major ARCHER, who, like Captain MUNDY, was also an Aide•de-Catnp to Lord COMBERMERE. He visited most of the Courts of the Native Princes, and traversed, like SKINNER, the Btu pendous Himalaya. Mr. DUNLAP'S Anecdotes of the American Theatre are likely to prove a welcome accession to our dramatic literature, the United States having been of late years the resort of most of our eminent actors. DUNLAP is certainly well qualified fur the task, having been for many years manager of one of the principal theatres. The attractive works of fiction announced are, " Lady Deere's Recollections of a Chaperon," and " The Life of a Sailor," s iid to be the actual adventures of a dis tinguished naval officer. MR. GRANT. A highly respectable and numerous meeting of the elec tors of the borough of Finsbury was held last night at Mr. Wilson's, the Bird-in-band, Northampton-street, at which the Right Hon. Robert Grant was present. Mr. R. C. FAIR was called to the Chair, and in a very able and eloquent speech explained the business of the meeting. The resolution of thanks was seconded by Mr. RAW sos, and carried with acclamation. Mr. GRANT rose amidst the warmest applause, and said that he should be wanting both in feeling and sentiment if he were indifferent to the speech which had just been de livered, and the address which had been put into his hand. He had little to say upon the topics which had been intro duced, because everything which it would have been ne cessary to say had been anticipated by the speech of the Chairman, as well as in their own social intercourse. The sentiments which he now addressed to those whom be hoped to call his future constituents, and whom, at all events, he should always call his friends, were better ex pressed in the address which had been put into his hands. He should certainly have had little to say on the present occasion if it had not been his lot to be cast, not by acci dent, but so cast, both, perhaps, by place and ability, in circumstances which had impelled him to take a zealous, not a very co-operative, share in producing that great crea tive measure by which the borough of Finsbury had been called into being.—(Loud cheers.) The Hon. Candidate entered into some details which it is unnecessary to re peat, and stated, that the first act which he did after con senting to accept office under Lord Grey was to state in writing that he was an advocate for a full and efficient Re. form in Parliament. —(Cheers. ) It was not the office which he sought, but the power it would give him the better to serve the people. He adverted the more particularly to this part of the subject, because in early life be had felt doubt on that great question. But was it to be said that opi nions, honestly entertained, were not to be honestly relin quished ? This reminded him of the saying of the an cient Roman,—that a man should not live in a house of glass ; but for himself, he wished that every man's heart was of glass, so that it might be open to the strictest scrutiny.—(Loud applause.) The principles contained in the address to which he had adverted were familiar to all present. The exciting effect of the present occasion bad made them so familiar, and it would, therefore, be a sort of impertinence to say more upon the subject. As to pledges no man could be so bound by words as that they should be engraved on stones, or that they should be stronger than past conduct ; for every vote that had been given by him had constituted a fresh tie between him and the interests of the people..— (Cheers.) The Hon. Candidate went on to state, that it was erroneous to suppose otherwise than that the Reform was only the means to an end, and that end was, according to the address which he had perused, " a cheap and good Government."—(Applause.) He trusted the people would not forget the end, because they possessed the means. It was to promote and facilitate this result of the great and immortal principles to which he had alluded, that the present Administration had laboured. He could never forget the support he bad received throughout the borough. He did nut seek to be their representative as a personal favour, but to support and improve the Constitu tion. The Hon. Candidate concluded by expressing the pride and gratification be felt at the spontaneous cordiality which he had experienced that ev.ning.—(Cheers.) Many votes were promised to Mr. Grant, who retired amidst every demonstration of respect. Thanks being voted to the Chairman, the meeting wa dissolved. The Rev. W. R. HAMILTON then put the following questions to the candid rtes : " Will you advocate that henceforth, and at once, the slave shall cease to be accounted and treated as property,—shall be made incapable of being bought and sold, —shall only be re sponsible for his own obligations,—shall, if a husband, have the only claim to his wife, and, if a parent, the sole right in his offspring ? " Will you advocate the immediate termination of that irre sponsible power which the master now can exercise over the slave by excessive labour and private punishment ? " Will you advocate the instant participation of the slave in all the rights of the free subjects in the respective colonies— those rights being understood to embrace person, character, re lationship, religion, and property ? " Will you, should you find that others will not take the lead in these discussions, seize the earliest favourable opportunity of originating them yourselves?" Lord MORPETII said the questions which the Rev. Gentleman Had proposed commanded his entire sympathy, but whilst he said this, he would still reserve to himself the right of a free aeent, and act as his own views of duty, after a serious review of all the bearings of the case, might dictate. He would yield to no man in z-al to break the chains of slavery everywhere, but in doing this he would not wear a chain himself.—(Cheers.) Mr. STRICKLAND said, if he bad clearly apprehended the exact nature and bearing of the questions put by the Rev. Gentleman, he had no doubt he should have been able to give a direct answer in the affirmative if the ques tion had been, " Do you from the bottcm of your heart hate and detest slavery ?" his answer would be, I do ; " Will you do all you can for its abolition ?" his next answer would be, " I will." He did not know exactly what course might be taken in Parliament on that im portant subject ; he should gladly follow in the wake of Mr. Buxton, whose long and intimate acquaintance with the subject rendered him a much more competent judge of what, under all circumstances, it was best to do. The Rev. Mr. HAMILTON though, upon the whole, sa tisfied with the answers which he had received, must con f-ss that his satisfaction would have risen a degree higher if the answers had been more explicit. The meeting then broke up. Were we required to point out a class of pub lications pregnant beyond most others with diversified amusement we should name those relating to the theatre and it., performers. The vivid interest attached to almost all the published Lives of Actors, from Ciasea's Apology down to the biography of the most eminent histrionic artists of our own time, affords abundant evidence of the justice of this opinion. We learn, therefore, with real gratification that a history of the American Theatre, hitherto unattempted, has been produced by Mr. Wm DUNLAP, and will appear in a few days. The author is already advantageously known to the British public by his Memoirs of the eccentric GEORGE FREDERICK COOKE ; and, having been for some years the manager of a New York Theatre, he has had access to the best sources of in formation on the subject of which he treats. MIDDLESEX—SIR JOHN S. LILLIE. A public meeting was held ye,terday evening at the Eagle Tavern, City-road, for the purpose of affording the electors of Shoreditch, St. Luke's, and the neighbouring parishes, an opportunity of becoming acquainted with his political sentiments; Mr. PREECE, Churchwarden of Shoreditch, in the Chair. The Steam-navigation Company's mail-packet from Hamburg arrived in the river yesterday afternoon with the letters and papers of Friday. An official notice of Mr. CANNING, the British Consul-General, of the inten tion of his Government to abandon the monopoly of cin namon, and throw open the trade with Ceylon in that article, had been made public in Hamburg. Some ad vance had taken place in the prices of public securities there in consequence of the improvement in the Amster dam Exchange, of which intelligence had arrived ; but on some unfavourable rumours getting into circulation of the state of things in Belgium, a reaction occurred, and prices closed lower than at the opening. The rate of discount was 2 per cent. The CHAIRMAN, in introducing the candidate to his brother electors, hoped he would inform th.m if the re port as to his being the proposer of Mr. Hume was correct.

In pe rusing the work not only do we become familiarised with the appearance and manners of the inhabitants of Persia, but also with their domestic feelings and prejudices. The curtains of their harems were as cobwebs—things of too slight a texture to conceal their mysteries from the lynx eyed Englishman. What more need we say of such a book? It will speed well and speed every where, no matter how we treat it."—.New Monthly Magazine, The CHAIRMAN proposed the " Memory of Countess Emily Plater."—(Drunk in solemn silence.) Several other toasts were then drunk, amongst which was Mr. De Boscoe Attwood's good health. It was now near 11 o'clock, when the CHAIRMAN called for the beautiful Polish banner which hung over the orchestra, decked with crape, and taking it in his hand, he rose and ad dressed Count Plater to the following effect, the whole of the company at the same time rising and preserving a profound silence :—" Count Ladislas Plater,—ln closing the business of this memorable evening, I have now an interesting duty to perform. We are met here in the heart of England. We represent the feelin gs an d sentiments of the great b o dy of the English people. In our name, and the name of the Engli sh people, whose feelings I f ee l we represent, I presen t you this unstained banner, th e anc i ent standard of P o l an d and Lithuania. I present you this as a token of sympathy from the people of England, and as a pledge of their determi. nation never to rest until the wrongs of your country are re dressed. And here is another unstained banner—the flag that has braved a thousand years the battle and the breeze.' It is the glorious red cross of St. George. I trust that it will always call to the mind of your countrymen the recollection that they have friends in England; and I trust that the day is not dis tant when, by the support of those friends, your country may recover its rights and liberties, and these two glorious emblems may be a symbol of eternal harmony and friendship existing be tween the people of England and the people of Poland." Count PLATER, on receiving the banners, appeared deeply affected, and made the following acknowledgments At this late hour I can only say that the flags which I have the honour to receive from you, to present to my countrymen as a proof of the sympathy of the British people towards Poland, will bring hope and alleviation to their desolate hearts, and strengthen their energies and their spirit. You_may be as. THE BUCCANEER.—" This work belongs to the historic school ; but it has that talent which bestows its own attraction on whatever subject its peculiar taste may select. There are two principal characteristics be longing to the narrative ; first, the great dramatic skill evinced in the progress and effect of the principal scenes ; and, secondly, the delicate yet deep tone of feminine feeling running through the whole. But there is one character in the ' Buccaneer' which appears to us equally beautiful and original; we allude to the little Puritan, BARBARA IVERK ; it is something like NEWTON'S Dutch Girl—a creature that must perforce be good, guileless, and affectionate; touched with the most gentle and sub dued colours. destined for Hearth and heart, and home content,' a character conceived in the very poetry of prose, if we may so use the expression."—Literary Gazette. COURAGEOUS RESISTANCE TO ROBBERS. —Oue of the boldest deeds of resistance to the brigands was performed by a Major on Muakr's staff, a native of one of the German cantons of Switzerland, or from the Confederacy of the Rhine, I forget which. His name, I think I can rememlier, was Vous. This officer was tra velling post from Naples to Rome with despatches in a little, low, open caleche ; he had not even a servant with him. In the Pontine Marshes he was stopped by six sturdy and well-armed brigands. Expecting no resistance from a single man, the robbers stood by the door of his carriage uttering tremendous curses, and commanding him to descend. This he presently did ; but as he left his seat he grasped a ready brace of pistols, and crossed his arms under his military cloak ; and as he touched the ground he pressed a t r i gger on e i ther s id e o f hi m, an d two of the brigands, who were almost in contact with his person, fell dead by the carriage. His sabre was as ready as his pis tols ; with it be cleft the head of one robber, who fa!, and wounded another, who then, with his two unhurt but ter rified companions, took to flight, and left the officer the master of the field.—Maefarlane's Lives of Banditti. INCENDIARY FIRES.—At the Great Ash down Coursing, last week, a large party of gentlemen dined at the principal inn, in Lanbourn, which is a large sir iggling place, and the inn at the extreme end. In the evening, soon after dinner, the inn was discovered to be on fire, and they with difficulty escaped from the table. It commenced in the stable, by violent explosion of gun powder, or other combustible matter, and two valuable hunters fell a sacrifice to the flames—one belonging to the Rev. Mr. S3IITNERS, of Hereford; the other to the Rev. Mr. PETTATT, of Southrope ; a cart horse and also a dog cart were destroyed. While this fire was raging, another fire, at a malt-house, quite at the other end of the town, about a mile distant, took place. Whilst the people were occupied in extinguishing these fires, the alarm of third fire was given, and two barley and other ricks were burned; the w h o l e of wh i ch were the h orr ibl e wor k of incendiaries.— Gloucester Journal. SIR C. WETH.ERELL AT OXFORD. Sir Charles Wetherell is making great exertions to se cure his return for the city of Oxford. He represente• that city on a former occasion, but having, in 1826, de serted the city when he offered himself for the University, he gave great offence to the citizens, who presume be would not have sought their support if he had any chance elsewhere. His claims to the support of the town ar , grounded on his being a member of the corporation, and also on the circumstance of his being a native of th county—his birth-place being the village of Cowley, about two miles from Oxford. He is strongly supported by the high Tory party, but the majority of the voter, Sir JOHN SCOTT LILLIE (who was received with great Applause) informed the meeting, that the question put to bin by their Chairman was one he could reply to in a to at in satisfa ctory with manner. Mr. Hume, Heoeosz and a concurred o n s those thatvaluable o cca • mun epresentative hid given no reason since to induce him Sir J. S. Lillie) to alter the favourable op i nion he then ntertained of him, he felt satisfied that no other result eouid follow than his re-eleciion. He then went into an ible statement of his rea,sons for supporting the measures idvocated by Mr. Hume. and for oppo4ing those professed y the two other candidates. In adverting to the vote by ha lot, he observed, that although Mr. B)ng and Lord Henley declared themselves averse to pl dgea, they did not on that account appear to perceive the inconsistency of d ledgiug tnemselves to vote against that rue.sure ; ae added, th.y were all ph dged on that question, two tut e, and two against it. With respect to tithes, it ap.. geared that similar pledges or declarations had been made. His reasons fur differing in opinion with the adverse can. Mateo were, that he wer(ained, on referring to coat tbr, Ro URGH GAZETTEER--NEW EDITION. II larg e vol.
