Hail, holy Light! that comest with silver flood TO glad the earth and. gratify the good —r To drive the ruffian from his darkling trade, And wake the .honest, whq e-ith login And spade Weave the warm web and delve the pregnant ground. Already,—hark !—the miller's wheel whifle round, And his loud song in louder noise is droWned. The shepherd boy,,who-stivred with morning's star. Unfolds his ravening flock, and drives afar ~ Where vezdurelives tligughiscanty-NXter;rign.s -- TO sheltereil hills ,licipa:sture'-FulftiredlSTains. The woodman, too, with sturdy step and slow. -Winds to the wood, io lay its lofty low. The rural life is stirring every where ; And sounds of summermurmur through the air ! One voice alone—sweeter than, oaten flute, Or lover's passion melting o'er his lute— One rural sound and song alone is mute : The Lark, .the wakeful usher of the dawn, Pours no high orison, nor welcomes l'dorn. The Robin only, of the summer throng, rills with short intervals his plaintive song ; Pleased with all seasons—autumn, Winter; spring— He sings through all, and gives them welcoming!— So should the Poet's serious anthem rise With holy airs and solemn symphonies, Whether the gladdening Spring and Summer reign, Or raging Winter desolate the plain ; In forest bare as in the clustered bower, His various voice should hymn the -Varking hour. Seasons may change, and with them change the song, But full the tide of praise should pauseless pour along. THE, WEAVER'S WIFE. (From the same.) Our danghters are a handsome rare,— You wished them like to me ; Our sons they have their father's face,-- A better cannot be ;—, Oh may their lot, as our's has . been, Be neither hi , th nor low, • Then happy to their gravel of green Like us, at last, they'll go I Then let me kiss that comely cheek, Where.lineers still the smile . That eheer'd me„when the world was bleak, With many a pleasant wile. Thi4 hand, that trembles now in mine, The tear that tills vn'ir eye, Cfmfesit rynr hearts knew no decline.

With the three first paragraphs of that Add ress ( con taining; as ther d c i; i irwitely'kitipl'y'itf 'the affirinative to a requi'sition viting him to come forward as a candidate for the representation of this town,) we have little other concern'than to draw this in ference, that since he is field it bell - eves every lover•of real and constitutional libeity,to leave no eipedient untried to secure, not his electioti, but. his defeat. Mr: Thornely tells us that the Reform , Bill is a "Great Mea sure:l". No*, if, as I pfestiln! he (loos, by " Great," Mr. T, means " GoOd," I 'ain at a loss to reconcile this with what fol lows, namely, " I shall be much mistaken if the ensuing elec tions do not demonstrate the necessity Of 'resorting to Vote by BA L IA) T."

The next 'sentence which demands our attention is, " Th e ~ • • • , . • • preservation of'iieace with foreign countries must he the object of every good bovernment."•.Burely, then, it is not Mr. Thorne ly's intention to support a bad Government, which; his own showing; our Mini4ry are ; for he cannot be' ignorant that it has appeared, it to the uijcisumifig Lo'rd Grey,, the pacific Lord Durham, and the sagacious Lord Palmerston, to commence "hobs old` PiiitAtiiiit allies, the Diitch; thus making . us the tool of revolutiin'!a4 40Alidel France ; • and this too. wi 'Wont even consulting the Parliament or the people.

Si n i l-Ai a lover of my country's liberties and happiness I hail unfeigned satiSfaCtion, the prospect now afforded the truly English party of this town, of possessing an organ of their sentiments, and hulwarklifthe institutions ihq venerate; and that all have profited by living under. ..

In opposing yourself to anarchy, b.oodshed, and revo lution, I am sure you will, carry with you the sympathy and ' active assistance of the, bulk of all good and peaceable men; and it is to be hoped.that if you cannot work a reformation in that iportion of our press, which lends itself to the spreadrcif opinions subversive of the social fabric, you will at least be able tully to counteract.th 9 ir pernicious operation on the minds of those who are either Unwilling or incapable t o ' reilect for themselves, and who do not distinguish bctween.reckless confidence of assertion, and the less specious evidences of.truth. These; certainly, are no common times; we see, in places of dignityand power„men whose li ves have been passed in railing and scoffing at such ~distinctions; we hav e heard the servant of our HEAD of the CHURCH, address its chief pillars and or naments in an emphatic warning, to prepare for ruin and dis ' may; the ,promise of. peace, is hardly cool on the hypocritical lips which swore it, and yet we are involved in war; the pledge of retrenchment is fulfilled by the conversion of uncertain into large and, certaiu emolument; .by the costly transportation of a bilious-faced puppet into company which cajoled before con temptuously, dignifying himr by the quartering of a needy, arrogant, and rapacious family on th e national purse; and— by curtailing minor functionaries, who have struggled with bare success against want.

TO THE EDITOR ut , LirAiti)ool; STANDARD: SIR—As the term " Ultra Tory" is frequently applied, or rather misapplied, to those with whom I have both the honour and the happiness of agreeing in political opinions, I will, with your permission, trouble you with a few observations on that subject. And first, Sir ) let me remark, that at the same time, that I consider the term to be, improperly applied, yet as distinguishing us from those who are what are called " Liberal Tories," I not only do not object to it, but I am proud of the designation. " Uhl* Tories," commonly so called, are men who are un willing ,thit thanges should be made in any of the institutions of the eousry merely for the sake of change, but where any abuses really exist are"most anxious that they should be, not wildly and thoughtlessly, but carefully a nd deliberately re- Moved. They are, also, men in whom love of country super sedes every other consideration, and whose consistency, and inflexible integrity, have earned the respect and_ admir a ti on even of their warmest political o pponents. Now, Sir, a s t o t h e intended and opprobrious meaning of the term " Ultra Tory," I understand to be; that the person so called, is one whd holds extreme opinions and will not hear of any thing like an alter - - ation, however desirable or however great an improvement such an alteration may be. If, then, I am right in this pre sumption, the term is manifestly inappropriate. I hold it to be the duty of us all, of whatever denomination, to endeavour as much as in us lies, to' correct all remediable evils; hut, at the same time, to recollect, that as all human institutions are im perfect, we are not to look for perfection ; and we should take espeidul care that in• repairing, we do not pull down -4n remov ing, that we do not destroy—lest in the attempt to git rid of the ills we have Fly to others that we know not or" Your obedient servant, PROREGE ET PATRIA. Liverpool, Nov. •l(1. CHURCH REFORM The Reverend Sydney Smith, to whom rumourhad assigned the task of preparing the Ministerial Bill for the Reform of the Church, has contradicted the asBcrtion, in a letter addressed to the Globe. ,"Cobeflorny, 'Taunton, Nber 4. "Sin—A p aragra ph has appeared in several of ovem the London Newspapers, which I shall be obliged to you to allow me to contradict through the medium of yourpaper.. " In this paragraph it is stated that the Lord Chancellor and Mr. Sydney Smith are occupied in drawing up a bill for a Reform of the . Church:- " I have not seen the Lord Chancellor for two minutes forthe last twelvemOnth; nor'ever'comniunicatecl with him on thd ec sub- ' J tin the course of my. life. "I am occupied with no plan of Reform; nor do I 'know•any one who is so: I dare - say there will be such a reform, and think there ought to - butt I have nothing at all to' do with it. If it he effected by the present adthinistration, it will probably be done as 'lien of sense 'arid statesmen go about such great ob jects if it falls. into. the hands of 'madmen and Revolutionists, it will be a Beene of "robbery, villainy and plunder. • "I am, Sir, your obedient servant, SMITH.' It is irresistibly droll to compare the above with the bold and circumstantial Radical newspaper paragraph to which it refers, and which runs as follows: It is rumoured, in. the Ministerial circles , that the Rev : Syd ney Smith is prep ar i ng a project of Chur c h Iteform, which will be submitted.to.the Cabinet iu the course of the present month. A dignitary of the Church, who is a great favourite with the King, and generally knows what is passing in the Cabinet, reports that the measure proposed is a.yery strong one,- and that it embraces not °Wynn entire modification of the Tithe system, but also an criormous reduction in all the 'cathedral establishments, the ser vice of which will be completely altered ! ! !"

" If we now deptecate the advdcac'y of speeific plans of church tetorm; especially by the clergy, we are actuated, not by a'spitit of Vigotect Opposition to real amendment, but by a conviction that truth and 'practical' improvement will be' impeded rather than advanced, by impatiently forestalling the resulti of the eCclesiasticalcoMmission.

That an association be 'now foimed of members of the Established Church, in the north of England, who are favourable to Ecclesiastical' Reform, consisting of a President, Vice-President, , and other officers, and subscribers• of ss. per anrium, fo 4 be recommended by two Members of this society, in Writing. 2. That this association recognizes, as an essential principle Of its constitution, a conscientious attachment to the episcopal order, to the articles and liturgy of the Protestant Church. of England, and to the national establishment: That it nneqriiVocalty maintains 'that the property dedicated by the piety of Our ancestors' for the maintenance of the church ought not to be alienated to another purpose. 4. That this association contemplates With deeP regret the hostility manifeSted to the Established Church; and laments that the 'existence of abuses" in the administration of its temporalities affords a plausible pietext to its enemies, and paralyzes the ex ertions of its best friends. 5. That this association d o en d eavour t o promote, b y t h e most legitimate means, the correction of the existing abuses, as re gards plgrality of benefices with cure of souls, the inadequate remuneration of many, of the clergy, and the deficiency of churches and ministerial instruction in populous districts; and that, for this end, it would suggest the appropriation of sinecure ecclesiastical revenues. 6. That this association is also anxious for the adoption of some measures which may remedy the excessive disproportion of the episcopal revenues, and, by a more proportionate adjust_ went, preclude the existing frequency of translations, and pro. vide for the maintenance, it required, of additional bishops. 7. That in the furtherance of these objects, this association wishes it to be distinct'y understood that itdesires, in no degree, to infringe upon the rights of the present possessors of ecclesi astical revenues. 8. That whereas there exists a strong prejudice in the minds of many individuals against the present mode of paying tithes, this association do support any approved system, which, while it secures the property of the church, and distinctly re cogn i zes the independence of the clergy, wou ld be, practically, less open to objection. 9. That this association do use its best endeavours, hy the cir culation of judicious tracts and otherwise, to promote a correct judgment as to the nature, object, and extent of the property of the church, and for this . plrpose do zealously further the views of his Majesty's commission of ecclesiastical enquiry. 10. That' the following gentlemen do form a provisional com mittee, to prepare bye-laws for the government of this associa tion, and generally to forward its objects preparatory to the next general meeting..

FißE.—On Saturday night last, between nine and ten o'clock; an alarming fire broke out in the Laboratory of Messrs. Horley and Eyre, in Seel-street; the flames raged with great fury, arid for some time there was a scarcity of water. It was not got under until two o'clock on Sunda y _ morning; fortunately, ther e was littl e or no w i n d, or the ad joining premises, (an extensive cooper's yard and shed, and a range of_ extensive warehouses,) must have shared the same fate. In one of the cauldrons there were 3000 lb of castor oil, which was totally consumed. The premises were fully insured. MEASURES AND WEIGHTS. —On Friday last an examina tion of measures took place before the magistrates ; there were several delinquents, who were fined.--On Tuesday an exami nation, of weights and scales took place before the Mayor and Alderman Sandbach, in the Sessions-house, Chapel -street. There were seventy-nine cases, eleven of them were from St. John's, some from Islington, and St. Martin's-in-the -Field's Markets, and front shops and warehouses, &c. They were all fined according to their trespass, St. James's .11Zirket was eAempt from complaint. RURAL RCONOiir. COBBETT'S Method of Keeping a Cow upon a Quarter of a° Acre qf Ground. „,4 In providing food for a c ow we must look, fir s t, a t the sv- p i cow; seeing that a cow of one sort will certainly require la than twice as much food as a cow of an o th er so rt.
