THE SHEPHERD'S DAUGHTER. Where the golden hand of morn Touches light the singing fountain. There a maiden, lowly born, Guides her flock along the mountain ; Bashful as the fawn, and fleet, She invests the world with beauty : Simple grace, and manners sweet, Dignify her humble duty. Sudden light has wreathed the earth, Robed the fields and flowers in gladness ; New delights, too deep for mirth ; Gentle griefs, too sweet for sadness, Who this sudden charm bath wrought ? Sent this flow of bright revealings ? Mind, that springs with joyous thought ! Heart, that glows with heavenly feelings! Surely 'tis some angel strayed, Not a shepherd's daughter solely, Who hath earth like heaven arrayed, In a light and love so holy ! Oh ! when stars, like drops of pearl, Glimmer o'er the singing water ; There I'll woo my mountain girl, Proudly wed the shepherd's daughter! ON TuE DEATH OF AN INFANT. Full many a flow'r is scattered by the breeze, And many a blossom shaken from the trees, And many a morning beam in tempest flies, And many a dew-drop shines a-while and dies : But oft'ner far the dream that fancy weaves Of future joy and happiness, deceives. And thou, pale mourner o'er an infant's bier, Brighten thy cheek, and dry the trickling tear ; This came, though veiled in darkness, from above, A dispensation of Eternal love ! He who perceives the dangerous control, The heart-twin'd spell was gaining on thy soul, Snatched from thine arms the treacherous decoy, To give thee brighter hope and purer joy. Oh I see how soon the flowers of life decay, How soon terrestrial pleasures fade away. This star of comfort, for a moment giv'n, Just rose on earth, then set to rise in heaven. Yet mourn not, as of hops bereft, its doom, Nor water with thy tears its early tomb ; Bede:m . ll'd by God from sin, released from pain, Its life were punishment, its death is gain. Turn back thine eye along the path of life, View thine own grief, and weariness, and strife, And say if that which tempts thee to repine Be not a happier lot by far than thine. If death in infancy had laid thee low, Thou hadst escap'd from pain, and sin, and woe ; The years thy soul the path of sorrow trod, Had all been spent in converse with thy God, And thou hadst shone in yonder cloudless sphere, A seraph there, and not a pilgrim here. Oh ! it is sweet to die—to part from earth— And win all heav'n for things of little worth. Then sure thou would'st not, though thou could'st— Though it be hard to bid thy heart divide, And lay the gem of all thy love aside, Faith tells thee, and it tells thee not in vain, That thou shalt meet thine infant yet again. On seraph wings the new-born spirit flies To brighter regions and serener skies And, ere thou art aware, the day may be When to those skies thy babe shall welcome thee. While yet on earth thine ever circling arms Held it securest from surrounding harms; Yet even there disease could aim her dart, Chill the warm cheek, and stop the flutt'ring heart ; And many a fruitless tear-drop thou hast paid, To view the sickness that thou couldst not aid. No ill can reach it now, it rests above, Safe in the bosom of celestial love : Its short but yet tempestuous way is o'er, And tears shall trickle down its cheek no more. Then far be grief !—Faith looki beyond the tomb, And heaven's bright portals sparkle through the gloom. If bitter thoughts and tears in heaven could be, It is thine infant that should weep for thee. EDMIISTON, SIR ROBERT PEEL AND MR. BUCKINGHAM The interest taken by Lord Durham in Mr. Buckingham's case, induced his lordship to solicit and obtain from Lord Grey, as First Lord of the Treasury, an appointment for Mr. Bucking ham's eldest son, in the secretary's office, at the Custom-house of London, at a salary of £9O a-year. In this office he was occupied for three years, when a vacancy occurred in the Comptrollership of the Custom-house of Savannah-le-Mar, in Jamaica, with about £3OO a-year. This happened during the short period of Sir Robert Peel's administration; and when notice of the vacancy was sent up, in the usual way, to the Treasury, Sir Robert Pe e l sen t d own t o t h e Commissioners of Customs, desiring them to send up the name of the individual whom they thought most competent to discharge the duties of the office, as it was his intention to confer the appointment upon the person best qualified for it. In answer to this, the name of Mr. Buckingham, jun., was sent up to the Tre asur y, when Sir Robert Peel a s k e d whether the person so recom mended was at all related to the member for Sheffield, and being told it was his son, he expressed himself glad of an op portunity to confer an appointment on an individual of so much merit, though so nearly connected with one who had so con sistently opposed his administration. The member for Sheffield, who was not all aware of this proceeding until it was over, sought an early opportunity to thank Sir Robert Peel for his liberality; when the right hon. baronet said, that it gave him as much pleasure to confer the appointment on so deserving a son, as it could give his father to witness his advancement. It will he seen that this version of the transaction differs in many particulars from that which has appeared in the public prints ; but it is in every point of view highly honourable to the cha racter of Sir Robert Peel, and may well be put in contrast with the ungenerous and faithless conduct of the Whigs to Mr. Buckingham, the elder.—Standard. THE TRADES' UNION.-A ROW. DUBLIN. Oct. s.—After the proceedings last night at the Trades' Union" here, Theobald's-row, Codgers' Hall, and all other receptacles for low radi ca l s may hid e their diminished ' herds. A row, a Royal Irish row, to o k p l ace, b egun b y that prince of patriots, that " genius of the ring"—the proposer and abettor of Jack Langan, the boxer—Misthur Tom Reynolds. It appears Tom dined out, and whether from the whisky being new, or his powers of suction out of order, it cannot be ascer tained, but he came right regularly fuddled—in that happy state when the organs of love and combativeness combined are alone in operation ; or, as the song describes it, when— " If he meet with a friend he for love knocks him down." When Tom entered the room he found the chair vacant, but looking round lie encountered a poor, half-blind, stupid, old bricklayer, named Pemberton, whom, " will he mil be," h e compelled to preside. This part of the business having been done, one of the secretaries said the Trades of Dublin had come to the resolution of starting O'Connell and Henry Grattan as candidates for the city on the next election—(loud cheers) — Grattan, of course, to be the member for the drunken unionists. Torn Reynolds stood up then, and a scene of recrimination, abuse, and noise ensued. Tom was accused of being drunk, which he politely denied with—" You lie, not." This and such like language increased the turmoil, until at length the members took Reynolds—their rice-president, the tithe martyr, the paragon of patriots—by the neck and heels, and tumbled him down sndra into the street. " Even at the base of Nelson's pillar great Reynolds fell. Then VOU and I and all of us fell down, And bloody tradesmen trampled o'er us." These ar« , the " boys" who axe to strike terror into the lords. Morning Post. HIGH SHERIFF VEEVER'S DINNER. . A most gratifying display of " the feast of reason anti flow of soul " took place last evening at Morrison's, on the occasion of the High Sheriff's inainFonration dinner. When the health of the Right Hon. F. Shaw, M.P., Recorder o f th e city, was drunk, he returned thanks, and iu doing so took occasion to say that it would be expected upon the present °emotion that he should give some account of the Parliamentary proceedings of the last session for himself and those with whom he acted. He could not, indeed, say that they were able to do a great deal, but then it could not he denied that they prevented a good deal of mischief. (Hear, h ear ) Th e tru l y boast the present Government could make was, that they have been able to keep their places, and that they had bartered their power to the Radicals; hot there was no natural connection or unity or sentiment between them ; there was merely this sort of inverse relation between them, one giving to the other office, and they in return giving their influence ; sod that re lationship is kept up by one means or other so long as each party can be of service. (Hear.) What has been the curiae (pence of such conduct es regarded their Intone or foreign policy ? It was, that the Government was despised at home and ridiculed abroad ; they found by such conduct that th e glory and honour of the British arms had been tarnished, and even the glory' of the British name seemed to be departing from them. Hear.) He sincerely trusted that such things could not last long. He congratulated this country that the English people were awaking from the slomber which followed the mania of the Reform Bill, and that at last a great portion of them, as well as many respectallle Whigs who have sup ported the present Government, were as much opposed as any Conservative to the system of universal suffrage, and what was called an organic change in the House of Lords. It was said by the leader of a certain faction in Ireland that it was with hitter pleasure he announced that the people of England were hostile to justice for Ireland : but he (the hon. and learned gentleman) thanked God they were hostile to what he celled justice to Ireland, for it meant nothing less than persecution and oppression by the dominant faction, and by an intolerant sect, led on by priestly agitators. Thee were told, forsooth, that that leader spoke the sentiments of the greater portion of the people of Ireland. According to him they wish the question of the Union to have a fair trial ; but, nevertheless, that fair trial was to he after a true Irish fashion, because he stated that before the commencement of that trial, his judgment on the subject was made tip and fixed, and there could be no jus tice done for Ireland except b) a Parliament of her own. He, however, trusted that the time was not far distant when every moderate and sober-minded man would bectane united for the salvation of this countr • and he would recomm en d the m on the o ne h and to leave a l • ' dent regard to the a lter e d state o f the laws under 1 the existing state of society an d c i rc u ms t ances ; Ina on the ot her to have the resolution and determination to act accordingi t i sh c onatu l t the old true. Protestant principles of the King, Lords, and do' i and the form of government, namely,. the (loin for the British people than offered more rational free people in the civilized world . Pthan was ever enjoyed by any other ( Cheers.)—Morning Port. By the arrival of the Camden with a mail froM Jamaica, papers have been received up to the 25th of August.

This number is unusually varied in its contents. We admire the manifest care with which it is got up, and the extreme ac curacy of its extended statistical details. The minute attention which its conductors pay to the important commercial interests of the mighty empire in the East over which Great Britain exerts her sway, must render this work an invaluable acquisition to the man of business. Let not our readers, however, suppose from this commendation, that this magazine is made up of dry and uninteresting articles relating to business exclusively—so far from this being the case, we scarcely know of any other pe riodical which contains a larger proportion of amusing reading. The most conspicuous articles in this number are the following : —On Oriental Translation, Laborde's Journey through Arabia Petra, the Aiswariki System of Buddhism, the Mate of the Wild Swan, the Tea Plant in Assam, the Nepaul War, Steam Com munication with India, &c. &c. Its miscellaneous articles will be found highly-interesting. We extract the following : " Hi moo° WOMEN.—Anative writer, educated at the Hen don College, has given, in a series of papers on the domestic manners, &c., of the Hindoos, the following picture of the married ladies of his country :—" The married women of the Hindoos are a set of curious beings. As soon as the nuptial day passes away, their souls become entranced in a multiplicity of pleasures. Then is the time for them to learn all those arts that may heighten their fascinations and captivate the hearts of their husbands. Then is the time for them to polish their locks with molten wax ; to adorn their noses and foreheads with thick spots of ink and red lead ; to beautify their persons with powdered turmeric; to deck their necks with garlands of flowers, and make their lips and teeth, by meseee, as black Rs the wing of a raven. Rose-water, atar, mathagossa (a fra grant stuff for the hair,) and a variety of other odoriferous things, are then lavished, to impregnate their hair with fra grance, and no means remain untried to monopolize all the love and affection of their esteemed lords. In order to combine in them all the charms of beauty, they glow with the ambition to be laden with barbaric pearl and gold, and are seldom found sighing for cheeks of roses, eyes of stars, bosoms of ivory. lips of ruby, voice of cuckoos, or for any other dear object of poetical aspiration, in which the thoughts of ,many English ladies are absorbed. Nothing can be of greater moment to thaw than to spa' kle in gems and jewels ; and as long as they are not decorated from head to toe with all the ornaments of the country, their greedy desires and vexatious requests are unsated. They are always wrapt in black or red-bordered sarees, usually of ten cubits long, and have nothing to do with trousers, sashes, gowns, or bonnets. Whomever they have to go to any of their relations' houses, they are sure to he at tired in the finest clothes, of Dacca, whose gorgeous trimmings loosely flow in the air, while they move all veiled with mea sured steps. Very few of them are to be found to possess so ciality ; their flashes of wit degenerate into levity ; and the jokes which they crack with each other border, in most in stances, on indecorum and:indecency. Those who are capable of reading their vernacular language amuse themselves snout-- times with the voluptuous poems of Beddasoonder and Chun derkaut ; but those who have no knowledge even of their own alphabet sadly spend their days and nights with gabbling and gambling." The Book of the New Moral Mold, containing the rational Sys tem of 'Society, founded on demonstrable Facts, developing the Constitution and Laws of Human Nature and of Society. By Robert Owen, London; Effingham Wilson, 1836. We have only space to-day to mention that we have received copy of this extraordinary book. As its author seriously pro poses to sweep away all our existing institutions, and to remodel society after a perfectly original plan, we shall bestow a few re marks upon this startling production in our next. National Lyrics and Songs for Music. By Felicia Hernans. Dublin: Curry, 1836. This is a perfect literary gem—a treasury of the purest thoughts and the most tender and spirit-soothing poesy. Those who were strangers to the lamented authoress personally will here find, embodied in the enchanting language of song, the inmost thoughts of her soul. This book constitutes the best memoir of her that can be written. It shadows forth the sweet est lineaments of her character. We shall often be tempted to quote from this delightful book. The verses which we subjoin were written by the fair authoress on receiving from her young est son a garland of wild flowers, which she viewed as an affect ing mark of attachment. THE CHILD'S RETURN PROM THE WOODLANDS. All good and guiltless as thou art, Some transient griefs will touch thy heart— Griefs that along thy altered face Will breathe a more subduing grace, Than even those looks of joy that lie On the soft cheek of infancy. HAAT thou been in the woods with the honey-bee ? Hast thou been with the lamb in the pastures free? With the hare thro' the copses and dingles wild ? With the butterfly over the heath, fair child? Yes ; the light fall of thy bounding feet llath not startled the wren from her mossy seat ; Yet hast thou ranged the green forest-dells And brought back a treasure of buds and bells. Thou know'st not the sweetness, by antique song Breathed o'er the names of that flowery throng ; The woodbine, the primrose, the violet dim, The lily that gleams by the fountain's brim ; These are old words, that have made each grove A dreaming haunt for romance and love ; Each sunny bank, where faint odours lie. A place for the gushings of poesy. Thou know'st not the light where with fairy lore Sprinkles the turf and the daisies o'er ; Enough for thee are the dews that sleep, Like hidden gems in the flower-urns deep ; Enough the rich crimson spots that dwell Midst the gold of the cowslip's perfumed cell ; And the scent by the blossoming sweet-briers shed And the beauty that bows the wood-hyacinth's head Oh ! happy child, in thy fawn-like glee ! What is remembrance or thought to thee ? Fill thy bright locks with those gifts of spring, O'er thy green pathway their colours fling ; Bind them in chaplet and wild festoon— What if to droop and to perish soon ? Nature hath mines of such wealth—and thou Never wilt prize its delights as now ! For a day is coming to quell the tone That rings in thy laughter, thou joyous one And to dim thy brow with a touch of care, Under the gloss of its clustering hair ; And to tame the flash of thy cloudless eyes Into the stillness of autumn skies ; And to teach thee that grief bath her needful part, Midst the hidden things of each human heart. Yet shall we mourn, gentle child ! for this ? Life hath enough of yet holier bliss! Such be thy portion !—the bliss to look, With a reverent spirit, through nature's book : By fount, by forest, by river's line, To track the paths of a love divine ; To read its deep meanings —to see and hear God in earth's garden—and not to fear !

It is expected to take place at Maidstone in the magnificent mar ket room, which has been recently built by subscription, and which is capable, as we are informed, of accommodating a thou sand persons. ELECTIONEERING ON DITB.—Not only do Lord Nugent's friends talk of bringing him for war d for M arylebone, but there are parties also speaking of harn ess i ng him with that old stager among ca ndidates, Mr. Young; thus affording Sir S. Whalley time to look after shares, and Mr. H. L. Bulwer leisure to write peerage reform pamphlets, and opportunity to earn his govern , went salary. As regards Middlesex, Mr. flume, it is rumoured, will not attempt to stand; but that Lord John Russell, relying on the Bedford property and family influence thereby gained, will stand for Middlesex, and thus cabbage a county seat. It is considered that a candidate who would thus be backed by go vernment and family influence only could, in these days of "full fair, and free" representation, keep out a conservative member for Middlesex, if even such manduyre could succeed. Mr. Hume in such case stops short at Covent-garden Market and, as an appropriate mark of reforming gratitud e towards "West minster's pride and England's glory," he is to take leave to solicit Sir Francis's seat. Not that Sir Francis is to be out of parliament, for, copying the example set in Squire Western's Essex case, on being civilly kicked out by his constituents, he might be bundled into the House of Lords. Sir Thomas Leth bridge, (the tory who declared that Burdett's radicalism made his "hair stand on end," and successfully moved that Burdett take the air in the Tower,) having become a buck-hone radical and an out-and-out peerage reformer, will be solicited to take the field against that redoubtable hero of steam-boat flights and conqueror of windmills, General, Major-General, and Com mander-in-Chief De Lacy Evans.—Morning Herald. C. SWAIN, THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. GREAT CONSERVATIVE DINNER IN NORTH. AMPTONSHIRE. NORTHAMPTON, FRIDAY.—The great Conservative dinner for the town and county of Northampton took place in this town yesterday. If any thing were wanting to prove the great extent to which the principles of Conservatism have spread in this county in common with almost every other county in Eng land, it would be only necessary to point attention to the great assemblage of rank, wealth, intelligence, and respectability which congregated at this dinner. Never did we witness a more splendid affair, or a more fervid demonstration in favour of any principle than that displayed by every one present. The dinner was held at the G eorge H o t e l , an d although the great room; which is capable of containing upWards of 700 persons, was crammed to suffocation, yet still there was not anything like sufficient accommodation for those who were anxious to be present at this splendid political festival. The consequence was that between 200 and 300 persons were obliged to dine in other mins in the hotel, and there adopt the best means left to be present in the principal apartment when the proceedings were going forward. The chair was occupied by George Payne, Esq., of Sulby Hall. The cloth having been removed, The Chairman proposed " Church and King," which was responded to in the most enthusiastic manner. 'I he Chairman then gave, " The Queen, God bless her." (Loud cheers.) The Chairman next gave "The Princess Victoria." (Cheers.) The next toast was " The Army and Navy." (Applause.) The Chairman then, in a highly energetic speech, gave " Mr. Cartwright, the county member," with nine times nine. (Loud cheering.) Mr. Cartwright rose to return thanks, but was unable to do so for some time, owing to the enthusiastic greeting with which he was received. When the applause subsided he said that he was sure they would give him credit for not being able to ex press in adequate terms his thanks for the kind and heartfelt manner In which his health had been drunk by that influential and highly respectable company. lie was exceedingly grati fied at it, because it was a splendid demonstration in favour of our glorious constitution in church and state. (Loud cheers.) He owned that he had been most anxious to promote this meet ing, for he felt that it would have been a disgrace to Northamp tonshire if, after what had taken place in Lancashire, in War wickshire, and in other places, this county had not come for ward to bear its testimony in favour of the great principle of conservatism. (Loud cheers.) There were other reasons which influenced him in his anxiety to have this meeting. There was at that moment a strong republican feeling abroad in , the country, and those who professed that doctrine were using every effort in their power to give effect to it. (Hear, hear.) Now, were these persons to be active, and were the conser vatives of the country to be slumbering ? (Cries of no, n o .) Let them look for a momen t at the conduct of Mr. O'Connell in Ireland. (Cries of hear, hear.) That individual had suc— ceeded in putting down the Orange associations in that country, and the only sin of those associations was, that they supported the constitution in church and state. (Cries of " Hear, hear.") Well, having effected this, he then proceeded to concoct another association, the object of which lie (Mr. Cartwright) verily be lieved to be to put down for ever the protestant Church of Ire land. (Hear.) Now ought they, as lovers of the constitution, as supporters of the protestant church, to quietly permit such courses to be pursued without endeavouring by measures such as these to show that they were ready to uphold and defend both the one and the other? (Cheers.) The House of Lords had done its duty : let the people of England do theirs, and Eng land was still safe. (Hear.) Let it not be en posed that in the course which the H o u se o f L or d s pursued they were influ enced by factious or unworthy motives. (Hear.) They did not oppose measures for the sake of doing so; no, they merely exercised their constitutional privileges for the purpose of re jecting insidious clauses in bills which would unjustly give too much powerto the dissenters of this gountry and to the catholics of Ireland. (Cries of " Hear, hear.") In doing this they acted constitutionally; they only in this iustance placed themselves as a barrier against the encroachments of the people, as upon former occasions they had acted similarly to prevent encroach ments on the part of the crown. (Loud cheers.) There were also other circumstances that made him anxious for this meeting. The radicals were at that moment impatient. (Hear.) O'Connell had just issued his edict. He had, as it were, fulminated his bull from the Vatican. (hear, and a laugh.) In the first place, O'Connell tells Lord Melbourne that lie must satisfy the radicals of England, Ireland, and Scot land. In the next place, Ise threatens a conflict wills the, House of Lords. Now the question was, what would Lord Melbourne do in this case? That noble lord said he did not go to the ra dicals—they came to him. But did that so appear from what had taken place upon the Irish church bill? (Hear, hear.) In a work whirls he held in his hand, Horne Tooke—who, by the way, used to be considered a very extreme reformer, but who, it he lived in the present day, would be looked upon as a very moderate reformer indeed—that individual was reported to have said that if his friends were anxious to go as far asiSiough in their efforts for reform, he would accompany them to Houns low. But Mr. Coleridge, in his very able commentary upon this passage, asks this very pertinent question—" Would a man be justified in going arm-and-arm as far as Hounslow with a man who was going to com m it a ro bb ery a t S trou d ?" N ow O'Connell was hand and glove with Lord Mulgrave, and he (Mr. O'Connell) was at that moment declaring his determina tion to rob the church. (Hear, hear.) He would take what he could get at present, but that would not deter him from taking more hereafter; on the contrary, he avowed his determination never to cease until he had effected the Complete spoliation of th e I r i s h c h urc h . (H ear.) Now, did Lord Melbourne mean to say that he would go part of the way with an individual who made the declaration of his intention to go the length he mentioned? (Hear, hear.) The hon. gentleman, after a ll u di ng t o t h e s t a t ement of Mr. O'Con nell, namely, that the English people were, if not hostile to the 'claims of the Irish, at least lukewarm in their cause, proceeded to observe that there were three parties in the country, namely, the conservatives, the radicals, and the whips. (Hear, hear.) Of the first class there were 300 in the House of Commons. (Cheers.) Two years ago there was not half that number there. (Hear, hear.) Was there not something cheering in this? Was not this a proof that the cause of Conservatism was suc ceeding? (Hear.) For himself, he would say that although he was not now able to be so strict in his attendance as he had been heretofore, he was always present when an important question came under discussion. (Cheers.) It was now nearly forty years since he first came forward to represent that county in parliament. During that period he had given his vote upon many occasions in favour of those measures by which they had been enabled to defeat the foreign enemy (hear, hear)—and all he prayed for now was that he might be permitted to see the day when the country would be equally successful against its domestic enemies. (Cheers.) Before he sat down he felt it right to say that in the event of a dissolution of parliament it was his intention to ask their support again (cheers)—and he could assure them that so long as his humble exertions should be deemed worthy of support, so long would he be anxious to serve them. (Applause.) The Hon. Mr. Pierrepoint, in a complimentary address, pro. posed the " health of Sir C. Knightley, the other member for the southern division of the county." (Applause.) Sir C. Knightley was received with loud cheers, and after ex pressing his gratitude for the kind reception which he had met with, observed that the meeting of that day afforded a source of unexpected pleasure and satisfaction to him, for he had no idea of seeing so vast an assemblage of all that was influential and respectable in the county as that by which he was then sur rounded, (Cheers.) He did not think it possible that such a meeting could have been convened, unless some great excite ment was abroad. It was, therefore, the more gratifying to find so vast an assemblage coining forward, influenced only by their desire t o up h o ld th e const i tution of the country. (Cheers.)— What added importance to these meetings was the rancorous assaults made upon them by the ministerial press, who, in. their efforts to injure the cause of Conservatism, frequently damaged their own. There was no doubt the Radical press was losing the influence which it once possessed over the minds of the people (hear, hear)—and in the same degree that the ministerial journals were losing their power, the Conservative press was exercising a great and mighty influence over the minds of the country (loud applause)—and upon his conscience he must say that he attributed the present state of security in which the country was, to the unrivalled ability displayed by the writers in the Conservative press. (Great cheering.) O'Connell was not able to get the press with him in his cry against the House of Lords, and it consequently because th e su bj ec t o f gross attack from that person. (Hear, hear.) He contended that the end and aim of the Radicals was to destroy the Church, thinking that it was the weaker vessel; but they had not found it to be so (hear, hear,)—for, notwithstanding there bad been a most extraordinary mixture of Catholics and Dissenters, of ministers of the crown, whose great boast was that they were the descend ants of those who fought and bled for the reformed religion, and others; yet still they had not succeeded in their attempts upon it, and for this reason, that the people loved and revered the Church (cheering)—and they determined to defend it to the last. ( Hear, hear. The Church it was that shed a halo round the darkness which at present encompassed them, and he had no doubt that it would be the polar star that would enable them to steer the vessel of the constitution safely into the harbour of repose. (Cheers.) For himself he would say upcin all occasions he would be ready to stand and fight the battles of the country so long as it would be their wish to intrust the cause in his hands. (Cheers.) Mr. B. Leigh, in an able address, proposed "The healths of Lord Brudeoell and M r. Mannsell, the members for the northern division of the county." (Applause.) Mr. Mauusell was received wills loud cheers. He begged to return his sincere acknowledgments for the compliment which had been conferred upon his noble colleague and himself, and he could assure them that, although the county was divided, there was but one feeling amongst the great body of the voters of the whole county, and that feeling was a determination to olihold the.great principle of conservatism.

Mr. Ross, in returning thanks , assured them th at no one ' r, l4e ` could feel more deeply anxious fo r the welfare of the town of Northampton than he did. The long and eloquent speech of this gentleman, for which we regret we have not room, was re ceived with loud cheers. The Chairman then proposed " Sir Robert Peel, a n d th e Conservative members of the House of Comtnons." Sir T. Fremantle, M. P., returned thanks, and reg re tt e d. that that duty had not fallen into the hands of one who had held a prominent position in the late Cabinet. (Hear.) H e thought he might sum up the conduct of the Conservative members of the House of Commons in this short sentence— they had done their duty. (Loud cheering.) Much was due to the leaders of the Conservatives in that assembly. (Ch eers.) The position of these leaders was a proud one, and they were ready, if it pleased the Sovereign, to take the reins of govern ment again; but, if it was considered not expedient to do so, then they were willing to give such support to the ministers as they conscientiously could give, but at the same time, to resist those measures which they deemed would lead to general an archy and ruin. (Hear, hear.) The hon. baronet concluded a long and admirable speech amidst loud and continued c h eers. Mr. Cartwright, M. P., then proposed the health of the Chairman, who returned thanks in an appropriate and eloquent speech. _ Several other speeches were made and toasts proposed; and the meeting separated. BIRMINGHAM CONSERVATISM, As we have not space to give a full report of the high ly interesting proceedings of the great constitutional meeting recently held at Birmingham, we deem it our duty to subjoin the following important resolutions, passed on that occasion. The Earl of Dartmouth in the chair : "Ist.. That this meeting, firmly and unalterably persuaded that christianity is the only true bond of political society, and convinced from all experience that the church of England em bodies the living principle of the religion of the bible, and is the sole unfailing guarantee of just and rational freedom in matters of conscience and in secular affairs, have seen with the utmost apprehension and dread a system of hostile aggression on this the only enduring safeguard of national peace, prosperity, and happiness, by persons openly professing the principles of popery on the one hand, and of republicanism on the other, aided by the ministerial party, who, for the avowed purpose of retaining power in their own hands, have deserted their former constitutional principles, and counteracted their own political professions, and do therefore declare their utter detestation of such c'mduct, and avow their constant and unchangeable reso lution to maintain the efficiency and usefulness of the protestant church now established in these kingdoms; to preserve the con nexion which subsists between the church and the state, by which the best security is offered that the government will be conducted according to the equity of christian principle; and to oppose, by every lawful and constitutional means, the inva sion of the civil and religious liberties of their fellow country men, by persons who seek to compass their destructive purposes ' either by a direct assault upon the integrity of the constitution, in an attempt to overthrow the House of Lords; or by daring and atrocious endeavours to destroy the present established pro testant church of England and Ireland." "That this meeting, regarding the general aspect of public affairs at the close of the last session of Parliament, see great cause of satisfaction in the manifold proofs tbatexist of a strong and decided change in the public mind in favour of the tried and ancient institutions of this country, as evinced more particular ly in the recent instances of populous and important consti tuencies sending as their representatives to Parliament persons distinguished for their attachment to the limited monarchy of Great Britain, and their devoted zeal in support of the princi ples or the Protestant religion, and its connexion with the state; and this meeting, being also of opinion that these happy results have been greatly promoted and expedited by the establish ment of associations for loyal and constitutional purposes, and are attributable in a more especial manner to the diffusion of• sound constitutional knowledge through the medium of the public press, hereby express their entire approbation of the establishment of news and reading-rooms, for the gratuitous use of the general body of Conservatives of all ranks, and desire emphatically to impress on the minis of their friends the para mount necessity for more strenuous and unwearied exertions, and more liberal support, than has, they regret to say, been hi therto accorded to those associations through means of which the present political struggle in favour of the British constitu tion can alone be maintained." " That this meeting, fully convinced that the maintenance of the privileges of the House of Lords, as an independent branch of the legislature of these kingdoms, is indispensable to the con tinuance of the happiness and liberties of the people, regard with the highest admiration and respect the dignity and firmness with which the peers have resisted all attempts, by threats of intimidation or clamour, to influence the wisdom and justice of their decisions : and, reverting to the business of the last session, they see especial reason for thankfulness in the manifestation of those liberal, enlightened, and conciliatory principles of go vernment which guided their deliberations in regard to the pro posed measure for reforming the municipal corporations in Ireland ; in their firm and decided opposition to that democratic party .in the state who have lately evinced such implacable hatred to the protestant religion and the general interests of the United Kingdom; and in the anxiety and willingness they have ever shown to adopt every sound and practical measure presented, to their consideration for the correction of any proved abuses, and for the real improvement of our ancient and venerable in stitutions." THE RADICAL FEED AT HALIFAX. By those who were there, and by thos e w h o were no t , O'Rourkes noble feast will ne're be forgot. HALIFAX, Ttmsosv.—Neither will the Abyssinian banquet of the radiclas, which was held here last night at the theatre It only wanted " blue fire" and " a little tail" to make it a com plete Pandemonium. Yet, let us " give the devil his due."— Bad as " the boys" were, they were a shade less bad than their brothers the whigs. Although they were about double the number of brawlers present, there were not many more than half the somber of drunkards ; but as every why has its where fore, in strict justice we are bound to .add, it was because the price of the ticket did not allow such a qaantity of drink per head, or rather per stomach. Like their co-peers the whigs, they dined at diver pot-houses in the town, and found them selves at are union on the boards of the playhouse. Shade of Sbakespear, what a horde of raggamuffin murderers of language —what a troop of clippers of the King's English ! But to begin with the beginning. Feargus made a triumphal entry into the town on the morning of Monday, in an open hackney, drawn by " four-greys" (like a mail coach ) He was accompanied by three " fools" of the town. Thousands of the unwashed and unemployed Sallied out to meet him, and it might be termed " proud day" for him and Ireland, if one half of the crowd was not prostitutes, and the other half thieves and idlers. When the dinner people had gorged themselves with carron (the dinner and wine were only 3s. 6d. each), an adjournment took place to the theatre. Michael Stocks, jun. a son of Old Stocks, presided, and never was there such a wooden representative of that appellation. He talked for a few minutes of the pros pects of his party, and spoke tench of laying his hand upon his heart, (his glass to his mouth,) which was a litt'e of a mis take. He then prattled of the House of Lords, and said it would be all as well to " introduce democracy into its consti tution •" mentioned the symp a thie s o f t h e peop l e (whereat each fellow drank a bumper, twice filled, sad cheered to his heart's content,) and concluded by expressing his satisfaction that the radicals had deter m i ne d t o di e h ar d . (Great emzzling and grunting in their drink.) What a laughable young (?) man is E Protheroe, jun., Esq. He was (the fool !) content to play second fiddle to Fergus O'Connor, an Irish adventurer. Was that English or gentlemanly ? if the unfortunate young man (we suppose we must call him so, as he patronizes the ladies, and toasts them on all occasions,) if, we say, the unfor tunate young man had a spark of right independent feeling he would have seen all the radicals in Europe " ten fathoms deep" before he degraded himself by " breaking their breed," after the scene at the Piece-ball on Friday night. But other things as well us poverty—mis-directed ambition, for instance-;-makes us acquainted with strange bedfellows—(l mean no pun)—as it was, he was " all things to all men"—promisilig everything —Fergus was Fergus. Need I say any more ? You who re collect his senatorial career understand all that is meant to be conveyed ; but others may not be so mindful of his peculiar power and glory. If ever there was a realization of the terms " red•bot, rampant, absurdity,' his oratory exhibited it—pro public') bone. A Mr. Coolly, one of the Thomson:, one of the Hills, a Mr. Tetley, and divers others, " honourable men"—" we all are honourable"—formed the dramatis persona. The thing went off without any accident.

SIIA K 3 PEARE.-It is remarkable that Sbakspeare is the only Vpoet whose works ha ve b een i llustrated by poetry ; Homer, irgil, Horace, are explained and paraphrased; Chaucer and the older poets, translated; Milton, criticised; but none other than Shakespeare have been illustrated by . poetry. All the criticisms on Shakspeare are poetical. He Is not only poetry himself, but he begets it in others; he communicates the facul ty as the flower its perfume; at once surprises the heart and awakens the affections; and he who possesses them most must understand him best.--The Analyst. SHIPWRECKS. —Extr ac t o f a l etter from a passenger by the Calypso of Carlisle, Captain Mason from Liverpool to Conbi• i i . tinople, to a gentleman in Glasgow, dated Constantinople, util Sept. 1836 :—" We arrived here on the 27th ult. after a passage of 90 days; we had very bad weather, only seven days of a fair wind, all the rest of the passage either a dead calm, or the wind right a-head, and sometimes blowing a gale. In passing the Bay of Biscay on the 3d June, we fell in with the Helm of Gloucester, dismasted, and carrying a signal of distress. We ran close up to her, but the heavy sea prevented us from ren dering them any assistance. We saw another wreck with very little above water. On the night of the 7th July we very nar rowly escaped being run down by a large brig. Being on op posite tacks, she was not observed till close upon us, and uith every exertion to clear each other, her jib boom ran right through our fore and aft mainsail. On the 12th of August, when beating against the current towards the Dardanelles, we experienced a severe squall, which split a number of our sails. During the squall, we saw the Minerva of Stranraer go ashore. The Hannibal of Dundee went down near the same place, and only the cook and cabin boy were saved by clinging to a plank of wood, We landed here on the 27th, all in good health." Emporto.
