verdict of Manslaughter against Mr.. LONG; and
when asked by- the Coroner on what grounds?
replied, " on the ground of gross ignorance, settinp
aside any thing else."' They further observed that
in their unanimous opinion, the time bad nosy
arrived " when it is absolutely necessary for tht
Legislature to ltdopt some enea'st:re with a vivo; of
preventing the further sacrifice of human life, b)
persons practising surgery without possessing such
cient qual►ficat►ons for that .important branch of
wience." We perfectly agree in the propriety of
these remarks, though at the same time we
cannot see how they can possibly be ren-
dered available, if quacks, on so magnificent and
comprehensive a scale is Mr. Lop, or.,
merely to be mulcted in the price of an advertise-
ment—fur what is a tine of two hundred and fifty
pounds to -a m►n whose fashionable ignorance brings
him itt many thousands ? —for whatever deaths they
may be the direct means of occasioning. The sr.
cess of Mr. LONG is a reflection on the -common
sense of the community. Luckily,- however, his
notoriety is chiefly confined to the higher classes,
who are not, generally speaking, so remarkable for
their sagacity as their wealth and means of enjoy-
ment. But even with them Mr. LONG'S practice is,
we understand, on the decline; nothing is so ca-
pricious as fashion; the most fickle wind that ever
blew is steady compared to it ; and we ..have little
doubt, that in a few months, perhaps even a few
weeks, Mr. LONG'S favourite system of curing ladies
of consumptionnerves—head-ache—and what not
—by scrubbing large holes in their short ribs behind
screens, will be numbered with the exploded (rock-
eries of past ages, with the bleeding and hot water
of Dr. SANtatkpo4 and the earth-,haths of Dr.
GRAHAM.

We direct .our readers', most particular attvntioe
to an 'advertisement which appears in The S4sn of
to-day, on the subject of the dismissal of Ministers.
This advertisement contains a petition—couched in
energetic but strictly constitutional language—pray-
ing that his MAJESTY will be pleased to dis Miss his
present most . incapable Administration. The
petition originates with the: Political Union at
Birmingham, that invaluable and patriotic fra-
ternity, whose example will, we doubt not,
be promptly followed by every respectable city,
town, and borough throughout the United King-
dom; It is clear that if the good opinion
of the county be requisite to keep Ministers
in power, they will not retain office a week longer.
The spirit of the people is displaying itself in all
quarters on the subject, with a firmness—a promp-
titude—a determined, yet peaceful energy—perfectly
unprecedented. If, then, his Grace be really the
patriot he pm ofessed to be, when at a recent
dinner at Birmingham be unequivocally dc..
elated that he did not desire to retain office
an instant longer than might be compatible with
the public interests, he will not now hesitate to fulfill
his promise, resign his situation, and thereby en-
sure the lasting gratitude of his countrymen. We
will answer for it, that if he will only perform this
act of necessary patriotism, he will receive the
thanks of every third town in the kingdom, and
he besides a thousand times more- popular than
he bus ever yet been. As a warrior, England
can never cease to regard his Grace with feelings
of gratitude and veneration ; but as a Statesman she
utterly repudiates his judgment, and moreover, ac-
cords with him in opinion, that he is unable to appre-
ciate the diameter of his age.

The following are extracts from the German
Papers received this morning
(From the Hogue Journal, Nov. 10.)
THE HAGUE, Nov. O.—His Majesty, by a resolution of the
stay before yesterday, has declared,
" The coast of the kingdom of the Netherlands, belonging to
West Flanders, and also the ports of Antwerp and Ghent, in a
state of blockade. •
" 11l ships bound to those coasts and ports, when they arrive
off the coast, are to be warned olt, with liberty to put into any
port of the northern provinces of the kingdom, or to. proceed to
any other destination, and all ships, after having received notice
of the blockade, shall, notwithstanding, attempt to enter a port
In the southern provinces of the Netherlands, shall be treated ac..
cording to the law of nation. . _ _

This blockade will be enforced by a sufficient naval force."
His Majesty has granted permission to the Senate of the eAty of
Luxemburg to import 9000 bushels of wheat and rye, duty free,
His Royal Highness Prince Frederick of the Netherlands left
this place to-day for Breda, in order, as we are assured, to view
the army in the field.
The number of volunteers, as well fbr the militia in the field
as forth° Yager*, daily increases. A company of volunteers for
the Yagers leave us this week to join the army. Twocompanies
of militia, 300 strong, from Rotterdam, and a company from
Delft, marched yesterday to Breda. The Yager corps of Leyden
students,will snatch on Thursday, not to Bois.le-Duci as first
stated, but to Breda. rho Utrecht students will shortly go to
Bois.le-Duc.

Very satisfactory accounts have been received from Maestricht.
According to a private letter from an officer of the garrison, of
the sth inst., almost all the Belgian hoops, who were very
numerous, had been dismissed, and sent out of the gates. Since
that time no apprehension was felt for the state of the fortress.
It is well supplied with every requisite, and in a good state of
defence. The spirit of the troops, who with few exceptions are
all Dutch, is excellent. Mere was not the smallest apprehension
of a siege for the present, as there was no hostile corps in the
vicinity of the fortress, and very little was heard of the insurgents.
According to other accounts, bands of insurgents infest the
province of Luneburg, and commit all manner of excesses. One
of those bands has plundered and totally ravaged the country
seat of M. de Borchgrave, Member of the Second Chamber, who
has been always distinguished for his moderation and integrity.
A private letter from Liege gives a melancholy picture of the
present state of Belgium.

APPREHENSION OF A .GANG OF RE-

SURRECTIONISTS.

nEvormoltr, Nov. Io.—At this moment the greatest Mann
and confusion prevail in this parish, in consequence of the dis-
covery and complete detection of a gang of resurrectionists, who,
it appears, have long been carrying on their unhallowed trade In

handsomely furnished, the principal giving out, that he had
chosen this part of the world tor the selubrity of the air, his
health not being good and that he was living upon his property.
But for the proverbial activity of the police there is no knowing
how long their inftunour traffic might have continued. Their
detection was effected as follows servant girl, living in the

by strangers far the last two or three months. This,' together
with the fact that a woman had been seen to enter that house,
whose conduct in making inquiries at funerals of the age, cis-
eases, time of death, Ste. ot the deceased persons had attracted
attention, first gave rise to the suspicion that the house was a
receptacle for the resurrectionists. Ellis, an active, skiltbl, and
intrepid constable, was employcxl to watch the puttee, and to
form a plan for their detection. Last night he took a station,
