he,on a proper footing, such as it was from 1782 to 1795,
until the time when plots were set on foot to destroy the
independence of the country. I wish the connection to be

but still more advantageous to Eneland...—(Hear, hear.)--
Tile next point upon which I wish to inform Lord

to keep up these dissensions, but I defy them.—(Hear
and cheers.)—The upper classes of Orangemen may at-
tempt to traffic 'with the Government; our animosities,
however, are already buried. Ido not think that the Go-
' eernment will boy them, at least with the people's money;
but 'I care not whether they do or not, because the
Orangemen, the middling and the working classes of
them, have now the sense to know that interested men
hitherto sought to delude them, and that the cause of
' quarrel is done away with.—(Hear and cheers.)—They
know and they feel that the Union has inflicted the greatest
fiery upon Ireland for the last thirty years, and to effect
the repeal of that measure the Orangemen and Catholics
are now linked arm in arm together.—(Loud cheere.)—
' I tell Lord Anglesea that it will be an impossibility to keep

me and my Orange brethren asunder.—(Cheers.) It will
be impossible to keep up dissension amongst Irishmen—
the spirit of concord is spreading to the north—it will soon
become tirmik 'fixed there—the orangeman and the Ca-
tholic will meet in "aunty-the son of one will marry the
&tighter of the othei.-4Cheers and laughter.) Such is
the general feelink hetinning to spread abroad. I call
.aped Vicy- man'tolifruse that spirit still more widely—
, reittelibilt" Ctaiholles—remember Orangemen—remember
bisliteeni that he is the greatest enemy to yourselves, and
to your country, who would now strive to promote division
and dissension amongst you.—(Hear, and cheering.)
After thanks to the Chairmen, the meeting adjourned.

BANKRUPTS' COURT, BASINGHALL-
STREET.'

PRIOR'S COMMISSION.
Yesterday the Commission against William Prior at-
tracted a great deal of curiosity. The bankrupt, as has
, iltestly been stated, was a partner in the eminent brewery
of 11. Meux and Co., and disappeared a short time ago.
Mr. Richard Lathatn, and another of the partners in
Abe bow of Meux and Co., were present during the proof
of -debt',
Sir William Curtis, a creditor to a considerab'e amount,
Was one of those who proved.
The Cauze COMMISSIONER, while the creditors were
eluting ip, asked, whether the bankrupt was present?
idr. Colley Smith, of Lincoln's-inn, solicitor to the com-
mission, replied in the negative.
Cottaixessiosrea—Do you expect Mr. Prior ? Mr.
smith—No; I have not heard that he means to be here.
Coustostom--.What ! Then has be absconded ?
Mr. Smith—lt is said that he has absconded, but I
cannot say whether he has or not. Some say that it is
believed, he went from London to Dover, but where he
went from Dover is not mentioned. It is I believe all
conjecture.

A Creditor--A Magistrate's warrant was issued against
him, but it was soon afterwards withdrawn, and police
: .
. . officers are looking for him.
In a conversation in an under tone, Mr. Smith stated
that, althoUgh the debts of Mr. Prior were numerous,
and contracted most improperly, there bad been nothing
stated to him calculated to justify the issue of a warrant—
nothing likely to subject the bankrupt to a criminal pro-
secution.
The murmuring amongst some of the creditors was very
great, for Fvery ape of those who proved had paid down his
' bard cash for the bankrupt's bills or bonds; and to not one
of:those was added the security of another person.
The following debts were proved : ~..

7 -There was some little warmth exhibited amongst the
d. ere itors on the subject of the choice of assignees; but
who proved on the first day for 0001, Mr.
Morecroft, and Mr. Huwell, wire fine*. appointed.
There was one peculiarly bard case, which was much
talked of, that of Samuel, the first creditor on the list.
The poor man has been for some time employed in some
low situation about the biewery;, and was left 4801. by a
relation. "The bankrupthaving heard Samuel say that he
did not know what to do with the itioney, as all he could
get by an investment was three per cent., said to him,
M Well, tell'you what' pita do, Samuel. Leave it
itith me, and you shall, liave 4 per cent." Samuel
• thOught his money was as safe in Prior's hands as in the
Bank of England, and accordinglY handed it over to the
bankrupt, who banded a piece of paper as security, of
Which the following is a copy :
" Brewery, Islington, October 8, 1830.
" Twelve mouths after date I promise to pay Mr.
Samuel, or order, the sum of 1801., with interest at 43-
per cent. " WM. PRIOR."

REPEAL Or THE UNION—SIR WILLIAM
ilaa BA zox.--A requisition having been signed by one hun-
dred and thirty inhabitants of CaWeber, including seventy
freeholders of the county, calling a meeting of the county
on Monday next, to petition for a Repeal of the Union, it
Was :determined that Sir WILLIAM Ilaanazokr, Bart,
should, be requested to take the Chair. In reply to the
letter requesting him to do so, Sir War. BRADAZON
writes thus :—" I have the honour to receive your letter
•--being always favourable to a Repeal of the Union, con-
sidering that many of evils which affect Ireland have
been the result of that measure, I shall with pleasure ac-
cede to the wishes of so respectable a body as the inhabi-
tants of Castlebar, to preside at the Proposed meeting on
Monday next. Permit me, however, at the same time, to
observe, that I have the greatest confidence in the views
. and good intentions of the present Administration to ame-
liorate the condition of this hitherto neglected and mis-
governed country."—.Dublin Morning Register.
Tuesday was a grand field-day, in the literal
tens* of the word, for the gentlemen of the Huntingdon
Mounted Association; for, behold, instead of the leaders
attending the exercise for which they had summoned their
Itten, they one and all went a-hunting ! Part of the psi-
?ate* followed the example of their leaders, and part re-
turned home in disgust, wisely resolving not to obey an-
, Miter military muster, and only to turn out when the
public peace was again eadangered.—Thantingdon Ga.
sate.

No less than 150 labourers who had been
previously out of work, are now employed, under the
superintendence of a Committee, in improving the western
• entranee to the delightful town of Weymouth.
• EXECUTION OF THREE INCENDIARIES AT
MAIDSTONE. —JOHN Dyer, otherwise Filen, and Wit-
lax and IltNnY PACaMAN, brothers, were executed on
Penenden.heath on. Friday. The two latter were boys,
about IS or 19"
years old, and looked much younger.
. They had all been convicted of arson, arising out of the
unhappy state of Kent for some time back. D vxit had
tf.juveriably protested his innocence since his conviction; the
,other
,prisoners did not deny having set fire to My.
Wit:Aintree stack and barn, but said that their accomplice
00014tAN bad urged them to it, for the sake of the r!.
ward of 1,0001. They paid little attention to their reli-
gm"! duties, and, in consequence, the Sacrament was not
administered to any of the three on the morning of the
execution. They were all conveyed from the prison to
Peneuden,heatli in a waggon, escorted by a troop of the
Scotch Greys, as an attempt at rescue was spoken of
?Pauly in the morning. The melancholy spectacle was,
however, undisturbed by any such absurd and dangerous
attempt. On their arrival at the Heath, one of the PACK-
stAxs reniarkill to the crowd, " That (the gallows) looks
• 4114'144 thing !". and he and his brother regarded the ap-
palling preparations for tying up DYKE with attention--
the first symptom of feeling they had displayed. The
Chaplain said, in It low tone, to Dees, " New You
have Come to the worst, and there is no chance of
escape, do tell the truth." He answered, " I ant in-
. utotteent." Be afterwards read an address, from a paper,
'Floyd, in which he declared that Hewire

cap off ""' eyes, and, when requested to pull it down, at
first refused, saying he wished to see the people. The two
brothers struggled very little, but Dyer very much.-,
Their bodies were given to their friends for interment.
