THE NEW P©LIOE•RATE.

Yesterday evening, in. consequence of 'a' Nam-
!netting the inhabitants of St. Saviotuov,Seuthertuk,
to attend and " take into considerations the hest
means of curtailing the expences of the Polie&tate,''
having been extensively circulated, a Meeting of
what were called the inhabitants of the Parish and
the Clink Liberty took place at the Auction Rooms
of Mr. Coulson, Union-street, Borough.
Mr. DrASON, ' an inhabitant, wit vaned to the
chair. After : this ceremony had ',taken plaee, an
awful pause prevailed tor some time, ,Which was at
length. broken by the Chairman inquiring if any one
wished to make any observation's upon the subject
of the Police-rate. He very much regretted that
some arrangement had not been entered into by
those who hod called the Meeting, by which some
one who was well acquainted with the subject would
have conducted the business,of the Meeting.
An individual, who announced hitneelf as a Mr.
BASTRIti, who had been appointed the Secretary to
Committee formed in conseqnence of a late meet-
ing at the Mitre, St. Martin'e-lane, respecting the
inefficiency of the New Police, and the grievous
heaviness of the rates for maintaining them; hero
stepped forward, and addressed himielf to the meet-
ing. He said then there were constantly meetings
taking place in every parish in London on the erten-
mous rates that had been imposed upon them lately.
Committees in each pariah had in consequence been
formed, who had resolved to unite with each-esker,
correspond with all the parishes, and take in; :eh mee-
sures as would enable them not only to put down the
police-rate, but the system itself.
Mr. "Ism; after expatiating on the inefficiency
of the New Police, and stating that the consequence
of their introduction; would, in time, be the attapen-
sion of the Habeas Corpus Act, advised the meeting
to resolve upon drawing up a suitable address to

commended in the handbill addressed to the inha-
bitatits of the pariah, petition- 'the

bye, he supposed they would have the military to
collect the taxes. All would be military, in fact,
(An unusual bustle here, pervaded ,the room, awl

Wilde alluded to the jealousies which existed be-
tween the Old and the New Police, and stated that
those who raised their voices against the New
Police were , generally those who had lost some
patronage by it. He knew that the late Commis-
sioners of the watch were, us might be expectedi
bitterly opposed to them. In the ease of one Chief
Commissioner it might be accounted for, from his
having been taken up in the streets, and confined
in the Station-house us a disorderly, by one of the
New Policemen. Would the old watchmen have
done this ? Would they have acted so impartially ?
No ; they would have winked at the disorderly
behaviour of their patron, and passed him on to his
house. The City were friendly to the New Police,
and so were all who knew the rottenness of the old
system.
This speech was delivered amidst great opposition,
and attempts, by ridicule„&c. toput the speaker down.
Mr. LOCK deprecated the way in which the "Meet-
ing had been conducted. A great deal bad been
said without having any data, fact, or resolution to
ground their opinions on. He, recommended that
the Meeting should be adjourned.
Mr. LEACO said, he oppoied the New Police on
various grounds. There was once a time when they
could have got gloriously drunk without fear of any
power, and if found in the streets by the watchmen
they would have been passed from one to another
till they reached their homes. At one time they
could have kicked up a row—a bit of a frolic amongst
themselves; now they could not, for fear of the
police. If they were found rather fresh,in the streets,
they were beaten about the heads with sticks, in
order; that they might be rendered insensible, and
carried conveniently in a truck or a wheel-barrow to
the. Station-house. Mr. Leach opposed the police
for being expensive, infernal, and trampling on their
liberties.

This speech, ,made by a. man of forty, and in a
loud tone, was received- with shouts of laughter.
After a great uproar .and clashing of voices, which
was not the first or second time it had occurred,
Mr. BASTHR rose, and said he lied prepared va-
rioini resolutions. He then read therm The era
signified that the meeting were resolved that it was
expedient to wait upon his Majesty, and with' be-
corning devotion supplicate him to desire his faithful
Commons. to repeal the New Polka Act, The se-
cond signified that there should be a Committee
formed to take the-proper means to carry the first
resolution into effect, and to communicate and cor-
respond with other parishes on the subject of the
New Police. The latter resolution contained an
allusion to the Holy Alliance, the noble conduct of
the 'French, and the corruption of the House of
Commons.
Mr. JOHN Wutmr, sen. came forward, and, in ac-
cordance with the opinion of others present, said
they did not want the French to set them an ex-
ample, or tell them how to net, nordid they want the
rotten boroughmongers of the House of Commons
to be in the matter.

OPENING OP THE RAILWAY, AND VISIT

OF THE MIKE OP WELLINGTON.

MA NCHESTER, SEPT. B.—The opening of the
Railway, and the expected visit of the Duke of Wel-
lington, have become the nit-engrossing topics of
' conversation in Manchester. Most of the principal
gentlemen in town are more or less engaged on the
different Committees and Sub-committees to whom
the work of preparation has been assigned. His
Orace is expected to arrive on Saturday, first at
Heaton-park, the residence of the Earl of Wilton,
which is about four miles to the north-eastward of
Manchester. it is said that the Duke will attend
Prestwich Church on Sunday, in company with his
noble host. On Monday forenoon his Grace will be
fully occupied in visiting the principal manufactories
In town; in the evening he will attend the public din-
ner to be in the Theatre by the Mimicipal A u-
thoridee ; anti he will afterwards attend a ball to he
given in honour of his visit, the same evening, in the
Assembly Rooms, which adjoin tho Theatre. `ds last
mentioned gala has been projected by our civic autho-
rities, fur the purpose of affording the ladies of Man-
chester an opportunity of seeing his Grace to greater
advantage than will be offered by any of the other
public festivities in which he will be engaged during
his temporary visits; and it is expected to he one of
the moat brilliant assemblages of " beauty and
fashion" that luta taken place in this part of the
country since the splendid fancy dress ball at ow'
'nuttiest festival in 1828. On Tuesday Ida Grace
will leave Manchester for the seat of the Marquis
of Salisbury, at Childwell, near Liverpool. On
Wednesday the opening of the Railway will take
place, on which occasion he will revisit Manchester,
accompanied by the Directors and a train of eight
or nine hundred persons; he will return to Liver-
pool the same day, and dine with the Director* and
Shareholders of that vast undertaking; and on
Thursday lie will dine with.the Mayor and Orrpo-
Mimi of Liverpool. his subsequent arrangements
are not yet known with certainty, but it is untier
atom) that he will proceed to Doncsster Races,
which commence on the 20th; and afterwards visit
Tirtstingitam, where he is expected, along with Sir
Robert Peel, on the 23d.
1. have already alluded to the preparations which
are in progress for the reception and eetertaiement
of his Grace. The pit of the theatre is to be
boarded over, so us, with the stage, to form one
vast dining-room. The stage anti the bodsr of the
house will be fitted up whit crimson and white the-
perks, so as to resemble two large military tents.
The chandeliers of the now concert hail, which are
decidedly the most splendid of any in this part of
the country, will he lent for the occasion. The
tables, which will consist of three, placed longitudi-
rdly, each 104 feet in length, fourteen placed die-
gonally on either aide, and a range surrounding the
front of the lower tier of boxes, will all be covered
with crimson cloth, so as to cootraot with the
snow-white draperies with which the tents will be
hung. The chair, with the cross-table, which will
be occupied by his Grace told the principal guests,
will be placed at the eateemity of the singe; and be-
hind theta will be placed it mirror, or series of

Deane, of the Bush Inn, who provides the dinner,
has already twenty haunches of venison, quartered
and hung up, and half a ton of turtle, one of which
weighs three cwt. Preparations similarly extensive
and magnificent: w ere. never before made in this part
of the country.
An unprecedented concourse of noble and scien-
tific individuals is expected at Liverpool and Man.
chester on this interesting occasion. Lord Wilton,
the only Nobleman who resides in this immediate
vicinity, is making suitable preparations for the re-
ception of his guests at Heaton House. The Earl
of Derby, the Marquis of Salisbury, the Earl of
Sefton, Lord Skelmersdale, the Earl of Stafford,
and other Noblemen and Gentlemen, having resi-
dences in this part of Lancashire and the adjoining
borders of Cheshire, are causing similar preparations
to be made. An expectation is entertained that a
grand rehearsal, preparatory to the opening, will
take place on the railway on Saturday next.
Several companies of the 87th Regiment, which
has been stationed for some time at Bolton, Black-
burn, Oldham, &e. passed through Manchester this
morning, on their route to Ireland, via Liverpool.
No orders have yet been received for the supply of
the stations they have vacated with fresh troops,
and the barracks at most of these places were con•
sequently locked up—•-a circumstance of rather un-
usual occurrence. The population in this neigh-
bourhood, however, is now fully and profitably em-
ployed, and not the slightest symptoms of discontent
are at all perceptible in the whole of this populous
manufacturing district.

The river Irwell was very much swollen on Mon-
day morning, in consequence of the heavy rains of
the preceding night. One or two children were
drowned in the course of the morning, while at-
tempting to catch at articles curried down by the
stream.

FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, SEPT. 8.
Letters from Dresden, dated the 25th of August,
state that Charles X. and his family will take up
their residence in Saxony.
• We have intelligence from the department of
Maine-et-Loin, that on the 2d of September the
white flag was again flying at St. Florent le Vieux,
and that although the public authorities had given
in their resignation more than fifteen days before,
no re-election had yet taken place. This inattention
of M. Barthelemy, the new Prefect, is the more to
be regretted from the circumstance of this town he.
ing on the frontier of La Vendee.
Accounts from Rouen of the 6th of SepteMber
Mention, that the ferment continues among the work-
ing classes,
. but that the determined attitude of the
National Guard had prevented the movements which
were feared. A very large number of- arrests had
taken place; many leaders of the cabals are in the
hands of justice;. others were to be arrested that
day, and, doubtless, will be tried on Friday or Sa-
turday, before the tribunal of Correctional Police.
It is announced in a journal that Gen. Lafayette
has just been authorized to place a thouiand of the
moveable National Guards in a state of readiness.
There can be no possible question as to the National
Guards being made moveable. Until a new law is
passed they are organized according to the provisions
of the law of the 11th of October, 1791. General
Lafayette, who is charged with the execution of
every thing that concerns the arming and discipline
of the National Guards, could never intend, and has
never intended, to do that which has been, attributed
to

Captain Demoges, of the frigate Arethusa, on his
arrival in this port threw some difficulties in the
way of hoisting the tri-coloured flag. The Mari.
time Prefect suspended him from his command, and
the officer has just given in his reaignation.
The I:: nes!' frigate Madagavar anchored this
morning in our harbour, coining from Malta. The
arrival of a British frigate has caused much pleasure
here, because it gives full proof that there exists a
perfectly good understanding between the Cabinets
of Paris and London, and that the commerce of the ,

two countries will have nothing to fear from one side
or the other.

The frigate saluted the maritime flag, and then
the forts, each with 21, guns, which were instantly
returned.

caused a general massacre of the males in all the
farm-yards• in the neighbourhood. " They may eat

M. Mangin, the late Prefect of the Police, having
succeeded in eluding the vigilance of his pursuers,
has reached Belgium. He was at Luxemburg on the
31st, and dined in a private house. M. N. barrister,
at Metz, accompanied him. During the dinner se-
veral persons who did not know M. Mangin entered
the room ; the affairs of France became the subject
of conversation, and the name of the ex-Prefect
was uttered several times. The presence of mind
with which he evaded questions was much admired
by those who knew him. He left Luxemburg this
morning, and lodged at the Hotel tie Cologne, under
the name of Meunier. He is said to proceed to La
Sauvage, at the extremity of the French frontiers.
The last news from Greece are of a satisfactory
nature. The crops are very fine in the Mores, and
will probably be sufficient for the maintenance of
the inhabitants. The fortress of Athens alone is
still occupied by the Turks, the Greeks are still
masters of the town and country, andlthe President
has even established a Government at Athens. The
island of Negropont is gradually abandoned by the
Turks, who sell their property and cattle to the Hy-
driots, the Ipsariots, and foreigners.
The war has recommenced in the west of Greece,
and the President has sent troops to those parts.
The hostilities are still kept up, notwithstanding the
armistice concluded between the Allied Powers; the
Turks are the aggressors, who are themselves in a
state of dissension, and their commandant is said to
be in a very critical situation.
The island of Samos has not acknowledged the
authority of the Sultan, and has declared itself in-
dependant. The inhabitants will observe a strict

neutrality if they are not attacked; but are resolved
to resist to the last, should the Turks attempt to
subdue them. The President of the Government
of the above island is M. Logotheti (Lycurgus), a
man of great energy and talent.

ALGIERS, AUG. 23.

(PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.)
The evacuation of Bonn and Oran by the French
troops made the impression we expected on the
Arabs; and a measure, merely the effect of pru-
dence, was considered by them as a mark of weak•
ness. Every man has become a soldier, and those
who are unprovided with arms endeavour to got
some. Two Bedouins, who were transporting am-
munition and provisions to the mountains, were
discovered and arrested. I suppose that their trial
will not he long, and that they will soon be executed;
a rod of iron alone can intimidate the Bedouins.
Our longanimity induces them to despise us. We
have great confidence in General Clausel to re-esta-
blish our reputation amongst the barbarians.
The insolent manifesto of the Bey of Tittery
astonished no one; the Generals expected that from
one moment to the other he would break his pro-
mises. This Bey is a renegade; be was formerly
captured with his mother by some Tunisian pirates,
who effected a descent in the island of Saint-Pierre
(Sardinia), put all to the sword, and carried off the
unfortunate inhabitants to sell them at Tunis. The
present Bey of Tittery was bought by a Moor, who
took him to Algiers; there he changed his religion;
and from different events, very common amongst the
Turks, he has risen to his present station. His
mother, who became prisoner with him, remained at
Tunis, where she now fills the functions of house-
keeper in the French Consulate of that town. This
unhappy mother continually laments the ingratitude
of her son, who has never done any thing to soften
her painful situation.
New orders from Paris have suspended the em-
barkation of wool, lead, wax, brass, and other ar-
ticles which were destined to France. Several
commercial vessels which had taken in their cargo
before, the above orders arrived, set sail yesterday for
Toulon.

Some Jewish renegadoes are suspected of having
embarked large sums of money on the 'Russian
vessels bound to Nice. I have not been able to
discover for whom these Jewish bankers are acting.

(From the Gazette de France of Wednesday.)
BAY OP ALGIERS AUG. 22.
We learn by a vessel from Bona the following par-
ticulars, which I hasten to communicate to you :
" Scarcely were the garrison on board, when the
Arabs carried fire and destruction into the town of
Bona. Contributions were levied—the houses of
all the inhabitants who had taken part with the
French were pillaged—massacres took place, and
the barbarians committed all kinds of excesses, and
our soldiers were not able to check their fury. We
fear similar scenes at Oran ; but we hope that the
fort of Mers-el-Kebir, which commands the town,
will save the inhabitants from the fury of the Arabs.
We bear nothing now here, the situation of the
army is still the same,--that is to say, but
culated to allay apprehensions. The General-in-
Chief expects to have a successor, and gives him-
self little trouble about the brave men who are in.
trusted to his care. The Arabs still occupy all the
points abandoned by the French army."

PARIS, SRPT. G.
Letters from Rouen, received here to day, speak
of serious disturbances caused by combinations of
workmen. The National Guard interposed to re-
store order, anti marched to Datnental where an en-
gagement took place. The troops of the garrison
also wet to the scene of action. There was
pretty considerable number of killed and wounded
on both sides. This news, which was spread on
change, had some effect on the funds.
Our readers may remember, that under the con-
solute it was usual at the opening of every Session,
for the Government to lay before the Legislative
hotly and the Senate a general view of the state of
the country. Ir is stated by a journal, the Ministry
has just adopted this measure, and that the Churn-
hers will in a few clays hear a report on the state of
France.

A letter from Turir, of the 20th of August,
says-" On the 24th a Council was held, at which
several Lieutenant-Generals, who were in the pro-
vinces, were summoned to attend. The question
for discussion was, whether the fortresses of the
kingdom.shonld be given up to the Austrians, who
demanded permission to occupy them. It is.
affirmed that it was resolved to refuse pot only the
occupation of the fortresses, but also permission fur
any foreigner to enter the territory of the kingdom.
It is said that the private opinoti of the King led to
this decision."

WALTER. COLYTON.—This latest produc-
tion of Mr. iloitacx SAIITII'S combined limey and re-
search, has received many favourable suffrages for its ex-
hibition of a most exciting domestic story, in dose and
skilful connection with the grand national drama enacted
with each vignalenthusialm and triumph in the year 113136.
flut there Is one trait in the work, that appears to have
escaped that particular notice to which it i$ entitled. We
allude to tho delineation of the two principal female cha-
riicters, Parra and AOAT►[A, by which Mr. harem may
be said to have acqu►red the completion of Ida claims to

QUANTITY OF SEDIMENT IN RIVER

WATER.

Very few satisfactory experiments have as yet
' been made, to enable us to determine, with any
I degree of accuracy, the mean quantity of earthy
matter discharged annually into the sea by some
one of the principal rivers of the earth. Hart-
' soeker computed the Rhine to contain, when
most flooded, one part in a hundred of mud in
suspension. By several observations of Sir
' George Staunton, it appeared that the water of
the Yellow River in China contained earthy
matter in the proportion of one part to two
hundred, and he calculated that it brought
down, in a single hour, two million feet of earth,
or forty-eight million daily ; so that, if the Yellow
Sea be taken to be one hundred and twenty feet
deep, it would require seventy days for the river
to convert an English square mile into firm
land, and 24,000 years to turn the whole sea into
terra firma, assuming it to be 125,000 square
miles in extent. Manfredi, the celebrated Italian
hydrographer, conceived the average proportion
of sediment in all the running water on the
globe, which reached the sea, to be 1-175, and
he imagined that it would require 1000 years for
the sediment carried down to raise the general
level of the sea about one foot.
" A glass of water," says Major Rennell,
" taken out of the Ganges when at its height,
yields about one part in four of mud. No
wonder, then, that the subsiding waters should
quickly form a stratum of earth, or that the Delta
should encroach on the sea!' The same hydro-
grapher computed with much care the number of
cubic feet of water discharged by the Ganges
into the sea, and estimated the mean quantity
through the whole year to be 80,000 cubic feet
in a second. When the river is moat swollen,
and its velocity much accelerated, the quantity is
405,000 cubic feet in a second. Other writers
agree that the violence of the tropical rains, and
the fineness of the alluvial particles in the plains
of Bengal, cause the waters of the Ganges to be
charged with foreign matter to an extent wholly
unequalled by any large European river during
the greatest floods. We have already alluded
to the frequent sweeping down of large islands
by the Ganges ; and Major R. H. Colebrooke,
in his account of the course of the Ganges, re-
lates examples of the rapid filling up of some
branches of the river, and the excavation of new
channels, where the number of square miles of
soil removed in a short time (the column of earth
being 114 feet high) was truly astonishing.—
Forty square miles, or 25,600 acres, are men-
tioned as having been carried away, in one loca-
lity, in the course of a few years. But although
we can readily believe the proportion of sedi-
ment in the waters of the Ganges to exceed that
of any river in northern latitudes, we are some-
what staggered by the results to which we must
arrive if we compare the proportion of mud, as
riven by Rennell, with his computation of the
quantity of water discharged, which latter is pro-
bably very correct. It it were true that the
Ganges, in the flood-season, contained one part
in four of mud, we should then be obliged to
suppose that there passes down, every four days,
a quantity of wind equal in volume to the water
which is discharged in the course of twenty-four
hours, If the mud be assumed to be equal to
one-half the specific gravity of granite (it would,
however, be more), the weight of matter daily
carried own in the flood-season would be about
equal to seventy-four times the weight of the
Great Pyramid of Egypt. Even if it could be
proved that the turbid waters of the Ganges con-
tain one pad in a hundred of mud, which is
affirmed to be the case in regard to the Rhine,
we should be brought to the extraordinary con-
clusion, that there passes down, every two days,
into the Bay of Bengal, a mass about equal in
weight and bulk to the Great Pyramid.—Lyea's
Geology.

Workmen have been some time employed put.
ting both Houses of Parliament in the best state, prior to
the meeting of Parliament. The Throne, In the House
of Lords, has been prepared to receive his MA.istay. It
seems the present Throne is to stand during the ensuing
short meeting of Parliament. The drapery and hangings,
including the ornaments, are to be taken down, and put in
the best condition. At present the Throne is covered up,
to preserve it from the whitewash applied to the ceiling.
A new Throne will be erected, it is said, next year.

Since the publication of EUSTACE'S interest-
ing tour in Italy, no hook perhaps has appeared which
has created a more general interest, than " Mr. fluattres's
Travels in Greece and Albania." A new, enlarged, and
much improved edition of this work, in octavo, has just
been published. To the classical attainments of a scholar,
Mr, HUGHES tilde correct taste and sound judgment, so
necessary in elucidating the interesting remains of the
grandeur of classic Greece—a country which can never cease
deeply to interest our most exalted feelings. Altogether,
this work may undoubtedly be considered as the must
perfect and best digested book on Greece which has yet
been published.

it is as well to remind the eaters, that a plentiful plum year

REPRESENTATION OF BIRMINGHAM.

TO THE HIGH BAILIFF OF THE TOWN OF

SIN...My constant occupation in different parts
of the kingdom, since the dissolution of Parliament,
has prevented me from deliberately addressing you
at an earlier period on the subject of a pledge which
I gave to the Town of Birmingham prior to the last
Session. I engaged to renew my best exertions to
secure for the enlightened population it contains, and
for the vast interests connected with it, the oppor-
tunity for direct Representation in the House of
Commons afforded by the exposure of corrupt prac-
tices at East Retford.
The Parliament, with its latest breath, blasted the
faint hope which some might still, even at that pe-
riod, have retained. It denied to you a just and
necessary Civil Right, which might have been be-
stowed without trenching upon the fair claims of
others ; and the refusal was embittered by the alter-
native finally adopted. The new members were
not only wasted upon Freeholders already repre-
sented, but assigned to parties whose interests are
considered at variance with yours,--and who, for
the most part, ignorantly imagine that they are so.
My proposal had been, to take an obvious step
towards repairing and counteracting the mischief of
a decayed system; and in doing so, to confer a spe-
cial and immediate benefit upon the inhabitants of
Birmingham. The Parliament decided, wilfully to
withhold that benefit, and to increase the mischief
for which I recommended a partial remedy. The
Ministerial majorities which perpetrated this result,
will stand disgraced in the history of the country;
yet they have exposed to •the most obtuse under-
standing the necessity for more extensive measures
of reform. The people of England were entitled
to all the advantage of the opportunity which offered
—but these majorities applied it for the purpose of
increasing their own baneful power. The produce
of the Bassetlaw election fully justifies this conclu-
sion. The predictions which I had continually pro-
nounced respecting it are fulfilled.
But, although we have failed in the immediate
object, we have ample ground for consolation, and
perhaps I ought rather to congratulate than condole
with you. The debates upon the question, prolonged
as they were through the whole duration of the Par-
liament, have continually brought under the con-
sideration of the public the question of rational and
needful reform. They have ,exposed, in a series of
Parliamentary lectures, the defects and vices of the
existing system ; they have exposed also, the im-
mutable resolution of the present Administration to
withhold all remedy, however apt, and obvious, and
minute. In these debates, it is notorious that several
Members acted against their clear conviction, after
the question had become one for the exhibition of
party strength ; and some of them even attempted
to rescue their understandings from imputation, by
admitting this in a late stage of the proceedings—
but declined to vote in favour of my proposition,
lest they should compromise their consistency. Thus
were the interests of the Constitution itself immo-
lated to party objects and personal considerations.
A distinguished portion of the Administration re-
fused to assist in this sacrifice—nobly repudiated
their colleagues—and retiring from office, left them
to depend exclusively upon that obsequious phalanx
which upon this question repeatedly assisted them
to encourage public feeling, common sense, and con-
stitutional principle.
These and other concurring circumstances have
given birth to the new and active, but steady, deter.
initiation which now animates the middle class of the
community—a class daily acquiring additional
weight, from increasing numbers, wealth, and intel-

ligeiice,—to effect, if possible, by constitutional
means, a remodification of that body upon which
the entire dependence of the people for their pro-
perty, their lives, and their liberties is necessarily
placed. They have at length opened their eyes to the
fact that for a long period the House of Commons
has contained an inert mass—a fixed, physical ma.
jority—blindly supporting any Minister whose power
shall, in other respects, have appeared to be stable,
through any purposes, however vacillating and con-
tradictory majority which, with rare exception,
has been alike at his disposal for good or for bad,
with equal indifference. Yet to such majorities
have we seen the Minister of the time gravely
referring for the sanction of his proceedings as if
they were really endowed with free agency, le-
gislative wisdom, and disinterested teal for the inte-
rests of their country. God grant that in the ap-
proaching Parliament these qualifications, so essential
to a deliberative and responsible body, may be justly
attributed to those who shall prevail within its
walls ! The auspices under which it is about to
assemble, and the manifestation of a sincere desire to
consult the reasonable wishes of the people, by
which the reign of William the Fourth has been al-
ready characterized, inspire me with a new hope.—
Guided by such dispositions, a more genial influence
may now co-operate with the just anxieties of the
people, by accelerating the regeneration they so ar-
dently desire.

I think no man can now be so absurd us to deny
that the evil I have described has resulted from an
incongruity between the composition of the House
of Commons, and the condition of the country
which it assumed to represent. Hundreds of Mem-
bers of Parliament, without real Constituents, and
millions of people witi.out any representation 1 This
incongruity is daily augmenting—and no supernatu-
ral skill is required to prognosticate that the progress
of the disease must generate a political fever, which
will very speedily either effect a cure, or fatally ter-
minate the existing form of Government—unless by
timely mid judicious intervention we avert the
hazard of so awful a crisis. But a specific, I doubt
not, will shortly be provided ; for I am persuaded
that the exertions which have been made on behalf
of the town of Birmingham, and other towns, dur-
ing the four Sessions of which the last Parliament
was composed, will have contributed largely to the
widely extending spirit of the times ; and thus—at
an earlier period than could otherwise have been
anticipated—effective representation will at least be
secured, not only for the community over which
you preside, but for Manchester, Leeds, and other
important towns, and for districts, the more pro-
Minent interests of which are now unrepresented, or
represented in a deficient manner. If, therefore,
the inhabitants of Birmingham find themselves dis-
appointed, where they might have indulged a just
hope of success, it will be to them a source of pa-
triotic reflection that their present failure will ob-
tain for others who have an equal claim an accele-
lerated participation in that privilege which they so
ardently desire for themselves.

The spirit of the age is a spirit of reason and jus-
tice. Exaggerated political views will not much
longer actuate any body of men, important either
from their numbers or talent. The dislocation of
party has had the effect of dissipating the extremes
of political feeling. But these extremes ore riot eli-
minated or lost. Instead of fermenting in useless
masses, they have to a considerable extent been
mingled and spread over the whole surface of so-
ciety,—their opposing elements have been neu-
tralized,---and the result is, an average condition of
political opinion, the temperature of which may not
be intense, but which will not on that account be
less influential anti permanent.
This spirit of reason and justice,—the public opi-
nion thus generated,--loudly call not only for a
share in the Legislature to be assigned to the new
interests which an extended commerce has created,
—but also for a more perfect representation, in their
personal capacity, of a vastly increased and increas-
ing population, and of the property accumulated in
its hands. An extension to ail classes of Christians,
of those civil privileges to which by the spirit of the
Constitution, and of Christianity, all ever had an
equal title, has been already wrested from the pare-'
lyzed grasp of monopoly and prejudice, which in the
plenitude of power they had constantly withheld.
'Wore extensive changes, affording sonic political secu-
rity for the permanence of these acquisitions, will
shortly follow. The dark hour is past when the'hack-
nied and agile repetition of empt), phrium could ope-

Irate to scare any man from his conviction in fsveur

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Eta,--But a week since there was nothing
.but de-
Spondency in the pilchard interest it was conjectured
this would add another to the many unlucky seasons that
have for many years past brought poverty on a great por-
tion of the inhabitants of the coast of Cornwall; a few
days, however, have sufficed to change this gloom into the
utmost joy. On the 3d inst. the fish struck into St.
Ives, en the north coast, where some thousand hogsheads
were taken ; they then took their usual course round the
Land's-end, to come up the English Channel. On Sun-
day, the sth, Mount's Bay was full of fish, and some
good catches were made; in their progress up the Chan-
nel several thousand hogsheads were taken between
Mount's Bay arid Falmouth. At St. Illawes about one
thousand hogsheads are taken; but at Nlivagissy the sue-
cees has been the greatest—it is impossible to say the
amount of fish enclosed, but it must be very great, as the
whole of the numerous twang of that place are said to have
been in the water since Monday last, and as the weather has
been fine no doubt much has been secured. The result of
thin success will be of great benefit to the poor, not only
in the present employ it gives, but in the ensuing winter,
in the repair of the nets and boats. Another great advan-
tage to the pour will he the Hui plus fish beyond what the
Italian market will take ; ten thousand hogshead* is sup-
posed the greatest quantity that market will absorb, and
at the present moment more than is sufficient is secured.
Of late years the scarcity of fish has been so uninter-
rupted that many adventurers have been ruined ; and at
the beginning of this season, many that could afford it, had
not the courage to put themselves to the expense of getting
tht boats and nets ready. Another natural consequence of
the late dearth of fish is the want of salt ; many proprie-
tors that now have fish, had failed to supply themselves
with salt---stud, unfortunately, not a single French vessel
with salt is in port, in consequence of their meeting no
encouragement of late years.

LONDON,
SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 11, 11380,

The French Papers contain little fresh intel-
ligence of moment. In a few provincial towns,
riots, it appears, are still prevalent, but happily
none are of sufficient consequence to justify any
serious apprehensions. These, and worse than
these, might have been anticipated. It is in the
nature of things that popular commotions of
more or less severity should follow any decided

changes of dynasty. There is usually such a
violent collision of public and private interests
on these occasions, such a rupture of established
system, that it is impossible that the body politic
must not be for a time affected, and that to a
considerable degree. But a few months well
and energetically employed will be more than
sufficient to restore tranquillity to every part of
France. In proportion as the Ultras find them-
selves and their party declining in popular opi-
nion, they will necessarily relax their exertions,
and retire from the trade of faction as hopeless
and unprofitable. Fortunately for France, but
as unfortunately for themselves, there is not a man
of intellect or enterprise among them all. Of
malignity they have enough, Heaven knows, but
this unaided by ability is worse than useless. As
regards the measures of the new Government, it
appears that the appointment of Prince TALLEY..
RAND to the high office of Ambassador to the
Court of Great Britain has occasioned not a little
dissatisfaction. This is not to be wondered at,
when the public character of the Prince of BE-
NEVENTO is considered. The man who has
steered safely through every political change for
the last fifty years ; who was an aristocrat and a
Bishop under the old regime ; a man of the
people, and a persecutor of his own church during
the Revolution ; a Minister for Foreign Affairs
during the Directory; a Grand Chamberlain and
leading Statesman during the Imperial dynasty ;
President of the Provisional Government at the
downfal of NAPOLEON; Minister for Foreign
Milks under Louis XVIII.; Grand Chamber-
lain under CHARLES X., and now Ambasssador
Extraordinary to Louis PHlLlP—such a man,
who has clung with equal pertinacity to all parties,
no matter how opposite their politics ; who has
swallowed, by his own account, thirteen public
oaths, with a readiness and facility of digestion
unequalled in the annals of political chicanery;
such a man cannot buf be looked on with dis-
trust. But expediency, like poverty, brings men
acquainted with strange bed-fellows ; and there
is little doubt that the amazing experience, un-
erring sagacity, comprehensive knowledge of the
world, and splendid diplomatic abilities of

the Prince of BENEVENTO have induced
PHILIP and his Ministers to select him

(for the time being), as their representative in
England, despite his startling and unprecedented
political tergiversations. By the bye, we would
give something to be present at an interview be-
tween CHARLES X. and TALLEYRAND, at
Lulworth Castle. The scene would be infi-
nitely edifying, for the latter would no doubt
convince the Ex-King of his perfect innocence
and purity of conscience within something less
than ten minutes.

The following are extracts from German Papers
received this morning

Bawls, Aun. 28.—There seems to be little doubt
that the new French Government will be gradually recog.
nixed by all foreign powers; the fact of the revolution
that has taken place is too evident not to be acknowledged
with all the consequences, but we may at all times recog-
nise an historical fact without advocating its moral ten.
dency, or the validity of its origin. Prudence may, per-
hap, counsel some delay, and some Governments may
Perhaps see occasion to attach to their future relations
with France, conditions, the chief object of which would
be the security of the state of peace, but in other respects
it may be foreseen that the French Government may ex-
pect to be attacked, not from without, but rather from
within._ For if the three remarkable days at Paris have
excited universal astonishment, and as an historical Ole-
numenoo, even administrative, it cannot be denied that
the original views and wishes of the parties concerned
have been far, exceeded, and that the language of moat of
the French journals by no means keep within the limits
which a state of settled order and durable tranquillity would
require.
The arrival of General Lobau has caused much sensa-
tion here, and its being immediately announced in theo

usual form in the State Gatette, leads many persons to
draw their own conclusions from it. There seems to be
no foundation whatever for the reports of changes in the
Ministry, except in the war department, which is very
probable.

BERLIN, Sen. l.—We learn that General Van Slake,
the:Minister of War, is to go as Governor to Neufchatel,
in the room of the late General Zastrow, but it is not
known who is to succeed him in the new department.
COBLENTZ, Sen. I.—General Van Biwstell, the Go-
vernor of this city, has issued an order of the day, in
which he announces the excesses committed at Aix.la-
Chapelle, by dissatisfied workmen and idle boys who fol.
losved the example of Verviers, in the Netherlands. The
General highly commends the conduct of the respect-
able citizens of Aix-la-Chapelle, in organizing them-
selves to defend the public security by arms
against the rioters. By their courage and exertions,-and
those of the King's Civil Officers, the rioters were put
down, after a severe conflict, and several of them arrested.
"If," says the General, " it is on the one hand to be la-
mented that this disregard of the laws and the safety of the
inhabitants has cost the lives of several persons, chiefly of
the number of the rioters, it is, on the ether hand, most
satisfactory, on the first mad attempt of this kind in the
Prussian territory, to see the inhabitants so fully sensible
of their situation as Prussian citizens, and acting with so
much dignity and energy in quelling the riots. It will
give pleasure to all the respectable inhabitants to be in-
formed that tranquillity is now restored in Aix-la-Chapelle,
and that no insult has any where been offered to the in-
signia of the Royal Government, nor any disrespectful ex-
pressions heard against the universally revered person of
our paternal Monarch. I have felt it my duty immediately
to order drool; detachments of troops to hasten to Aix-la-
Chapelle and Cologne, to prevent the repetition of such
disorders at Aix-la. Chapelle, and any attempt which, in
these times, is not improbable, to excite, in the sequel,
similar excesses at Cologne."
CoLoaste, San. 2.—Foreign journals and travellers,
who arrive in this city, inform us that troubles have
broken out at Cologne. Happily we ourselves know
nothing of them, and do not fear that any such will occur.
A Burgher Guard has, however, been formed, as well to .
supply the place of the usual garrison, which is gone to
the reviews, as to follow the maxim that prevention is
better than remedy. It is indeed true, that some indica-
tions of fomentation have been assumed among the lowest
populace, probably proceeding from foreign vagabonds;
and on this account part of our garrison has been re-
called, but no actual interruption of tranquillity has occurred.

By the arrival of the Boston, Capt. M'KAY,
from Boston, Papers have just been received
at the North and South American Coffee-
,
house to the 17th of August :
Cowitna.—Tbe schooner Angeline, at New York
from Lagusyra and Porto Bello, 2btb ult., reports that all
was tranquil in the province of Venezuela when she sailed.
The insurrection at Rio Chico had been entirely put down.
Gen. Pats was at Valencia, where the Congress was still
in session, but they had not yet acted upon any business
of importance. A revision of the tariff formed by Boli-
var in 1827, was spoken of, and it was generally believed
that a more unexceptionable one would soon be formed,
although it was net probable that it would go into effect
immediately, as the present onerous duties, on all kinds of
American produce, would, if suddenly removed, cause
the ruin of many who now have large stocks on hand,
and of course subject to the existing rates. It was the
general opinion among those who were steady observers of
the proceedings of Congress. that their acts would do
honour to themselves and prove benAcial to the interest
and happiness of the inhabitants of Veneeuels.
It was not known whether Bolivar had left the country
or not.

A letter from Vera Cruz, July 9, states that all was
quiet, but that an extensive conspiracy had been discovered.
It was by individuals of small influence and judgment,
They were under trial.

We have great pleasure in publishing an ad•
dress by Mr. TENNYsoN to the High Bailiff' of
the town of Birmingham. This address is an ap-
peal to the Political Association of that town,
and in temperate and convincing language ex-
horts its members to defer to the spirit of the
times, and "be cautious how they proceed in
this high and all-important matter," i.e. the great
question of Reform. Such an address from
such a man cannot fail to meet with the respect
and attention to which it is entitled. Avowing
himself a moderate Reformer—and it is from
such advocates, who are well acquainted with the
peculiarities of the British Constitution, and
know how far to insist, and when to halt in

their demands, that we have the strongest hopes--
Mr. TENNYSON does not in the slightest degree
blink the question of the present state of the re-
presentation ; far from it—he allows that it is de-
graded to the utmost extent of which political de-
gradation is capable ; but recommends that those
who would wish to see it regenerated, should
exert themselves in a prudent, temperate, and
constitutional spirit. " The spirit of the age,"
says he, " is a spirit of reason and justice ;" and
he would exhort all Reformers to proceed h 1

deference to the character of the times, con_
viuced that thus only they,can succeed in their
just demands.

AFFAIR OF HONOUR!--The Court Journal
of this day contains full and exclusive particulars of the
affair of honour between Lord IltmottAxt and Major FITZ.
wawa), which is calculated to excite so much attention
and curiosity in the highest military and fashionable circles.
The Duke D'ANOOULEME was visiting the
field of Waterloo, where the sceptre was restored to his
family, only a few days before, by their Own imprudence,
it fell from their hands.

Mr. CITARLES KEMBLE and his accomplished
daughter have been the guests of Lord and Lady WILT"
at Heaton House, during their late professional visit to
111aneheater.

On the 27th of August, about 600 persons
assembled at Bourdeaux, and, preceded by muffled drums,
with the national flag, went to the burying-ground of La
Cliartreux, and placed two tri-coloured Wigs over the tombs
of the two brothers Taxman), condemned to death in
1815, by a council o war.— La Voleur.

The Corporation of Cork, it is said, are about
to so far relax that system which has hitherto given them
an exclusive charter, as to admit a number of Roman Ca-
tholics to the freedom of that city.

It is somewhat singular that nine Catholic
gentlemen filled the attics of High Sheriff this year, and

IVIELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.—Last week
Mr. litnnut, of Bolton, Lancashire, and brother to Mr.
Dtorma, lace-manufacturer, of Nottingham, quitted the
Durham Ox Inn, Pelham street, for the purpose of en.
joying a day's spurting with MG Ilsaxxit, of Car
Odatort, near Bingham. He arrived in excellent spirit*,
and the party, consisting of himself, Mr. lisatow,
Mr. R. BAnxxa, and Mr. LAMMIN, set out between
eight and nine o'clock for the day's excursion. They
had only two guns, one of which was carried by
Mr. Droor.g, and ,they had not been out more than
twenty minutes, when near Car Colston.lanc-end,
in attempting to cross 11 fence, it is supposed,
Mr. lltoor.x plaeed the fowling-piece before Malt
with the muzzle in the direction of his head, and
the trigger being caught hr a twig,
.the piece went otT,
the contents entered the right ear, which was blown
nearly and a portion of the Anil forced in. His
friends who were in advance, "heard the report, and turn-
ing round, saw him tumbling backward front the fence.
On approaching the spot he was found not quite dead,
but expired almost immediately afterwards. C. Swami,
gent., Coroner, held an inquest at the house of Mr. BAN*
tun, and a verdict of Accidental Death was returned,
