THE FA I R.—On Monday night last, at a late hour,
a daring gang of ruffians, who had been indulging them-
selves at one of the " ball " rooms, in St. John's-street,
Smithfield, sallied forth, and commenced attacking every
person whom they passed, and knocking off their hats, and
stealing them. Many persons resented the insult, and seve-
ral severe conflicts took place, and the utmost confusion and
noise were the consequence, until a party of police of the
G division arrived on the spot, and apprehended some of
the parties. Watches, hats, shawls, and bonnets, were car-
ried off, but the prisoners in custody could not be identified
as the thieves, although known as notorious characters.
Most of these places arc nightly receptacles for the worst
of characters, who are indiscriminately admitted, and the
unwary, on leaving the " assembly," after being " hocusscd,"
are maltreated and robbed.

On Sunday last the people called Ranters held
their camp meeting in a field in Whitly Hamlet, just with-
out this borough. This spectacle, so common in America,
has, we believe, never before been exhibited •in Reading.
The parties arrived at their stations in waggons about 9
o'clock in the morning, and immediately commenced their
religious services. The preachers were about six in num-
ber,everything, as regards the Ranters, was conducted
with
t
decorum. Numbers of idle youths, from
thi the andpie g
purlieus rhertuaeesft the town, were troublesome during the
day, and did some mischief, while the police looked on care-
lessly. We hear that on Sunday the 10th instant, another
meeting is to beheld at Shinfield ; we hope some person will
lend them the use of a field for the day, that the dange
rous, if not illegal custom of preaching in the public roads,
may be done away with. About 2,000 persons were pre-
sent at the services ; we have heard that 20,000 persons
visited the field during the day.—Reading Mercury.
BEST AGE FOR MUTTON.—The sheep is in its
best condition, as food, when 5 years old—an age which it is
almost never allowed to attain unless when intended for the
private use of the owner, and not for market. It is then
sapid, full-flavoured, and firm, without being tough ; and
the fat has become hard. At three years old, as commonly
procured from the butcher, it is well tasted, but it is by
no means comparable to that of five years. If younger
than three years it is deficient in flavour, and its
.flesh is
pale. Meat which is half mutton and half lamb is very
unpalatable food. M. Ude says, " Always choose' mutton
of a dark colour, and marble-like."—Donovan s Domestic
Economy—Human Food ; being Vol. 94 of Dr. Lardner's
Cabinet Cyclopedia.

TIIE BALLOT.

We copy the following sensible observations on the
lot from our respected Contemporary the Leicesigrs4re
Mercury :
The Ballot is not a question of moral right or wrong r
is a question of expediency ; and the simple consid.eratiout
of every patriotic individual should be—" Is it expedient;
for the welfare of the empire at the present time ?" Anal:
if, after unprejudiced examination, it be found, as it is pre-
surned it will be, not only expedient, but necessary, the,
most strenuous support ought to be given to it.
The chief objection against the Ballot is, that it destroys
the responsibility of the electors, for the proper exercise of
the important right they possess, to the public—especially •
to the non-electors, whom they represent. The existence
of a sense of such responsibility is certainly salutary ; but,
under the present system, the information possessed as to
the manner in which votes are given, is notoriously made
;Ise of for purposes of coercion and corruption ; so that, in
the numerous instances in which these are successful, this
publicity of voting is grossly perverted, and the influence
of public opinion, to which alone there can be any legitimate
responsibility, completely neutralized. It is considered,
therefore, that any advantage resulting from open voting
far more than outweighed by the evils attendant upon it,
and consequently, on the principle of sacrificing the less,
when it becomes necessary, for the attainment of the greater,
this ground of opposition to the Ballot ought to be aban-
doned. Moreover, as it is perfectly constitutional to vote
for either of two parties, and as the unrepresented to whom.
the votes are alleged to be responsible are always divide&
between the two, all responsibility to them collectively falls
to the ground, and the sole responsibility is that which re—
lates to the con ;cience of the individual, and which obtains:
equally in the exercise of the most private and personal'.
functions.

;Rai-

Ti:e great cause why so many of the electors do not vota;

freely is, their dependent situation. It is evident that, in-
the present complicated state of society, immense numbers,
of the electors are dependent for a considerable portion oft
their subsistence on the support of individuals who will not;
scruple to withdraw it when a vote is given in opposition to•
their %s isbes. Sacrifices must be made, it is true ; and great
sacrifices are made by thousands of voters at every general
election. But it cannot be expected that large numbers of
electors will continue (for the sake of some general, and as
it sometimes seems to them, remote advantage to their
country) to pursue this course, when they feel that the
means of subsistence for themselves and their families are
fast diminishing, in consequence of their political conduct.
Those who will imagine themselves placed in the same si-
tuation, will appreciate the force of this argument. If
there be, in addition, as is sometimes the case, a degree ( f
dissatisfaction with the statesmen whom they have been
accustomed to support, the inducement to make sacrifices
being lessened, they will be very likely to overlook the
claims of their country altogether, and consult their privet*
interest only. The Liberal cause will thus sustain injury
as has been experienced in some places. The deficiency of.
political information amongst many of this class of personF,
and their consequent slowness to perceive the importance ( f
their individual votes, will doubtless increase this unwilling
ness to make sacrifices for what, nevertheless, they consider
to be the right cause. But, if this information were im-
parted, they would still be in the same dependent condi-
tion ; and, therefore, unless some protection ware afforded
them for the practical use of the knowledge they
might
have acquired, they would be, with few exceptions, little
benefited, as it regards their position as electors.
