must consist of at least 40 Members, have been pre

when Mr. Capning took his seat on hirelectioo tor

In short, if "• the wicked am" hatl.been determined

creating and fostering discontents and rebellion
among the Spanish people"—perhaps as more un-

meeting, to be disgraced by the interference of Cub•

Avisich was carried—" better to be governed by St.
James than St. Giles," said Horne Toole, and if no

other means can be found to defeat the views of the
ruffians, whose cause Cobbett espouses, a union be-
