that thpy have no reason to believe that this sacrifice will
promote or ensure the tranquillity of Ireland. Both in fact
know, that the Church and all that belongsto it will be resisted
hereafter as it has been resisted heretofore ; and both knoW
and feel that the money they propose to take from us go. s
to reward and encourage disobedience to the law. We
stigmatised Sir ROBERT PEEL'S project on Weinesday as
a gross injustice to England. The Crronicle to-day de
nounces it on the same ground. The Scotsman declares
that the whole sum will go into the pocket; of the Irish land-
lords, and not induce the people to acqiiiesce in the existence
of the Establishment. Oa tha united tcstimony of all parties
the people of England and Scotland arc to be robbed, as Mr.
lInNtE said, by the Whigs and the Tories, for behoof of
the Irish lanlowner and non-title payer. Now when we
cornl_ne this act of robbery, as Mr. HUM E stylus it, with
the 8.11 for plunckring its to make approaches to the Royal
Exchange, with the iniquitous Act, as the Rev. Mr.
JONES calls it, fir increasing the rates on tithes, with
the bounty on sugar, which levies on the sugar con-
sumers, as Mr. CLAY has demonstrated, a sum of
2,175,000/. for the liAnof of planters, and with
the Corn-law, which plunders the public of God
knows Low Much, for the benefit of the landlords, we
really can come to no other conclusion than that Legisla-
tion has at present dwindled into a contrivance for enabling
one class to plunder some other class, by means of law.
But if the Parliament get, and deserve such a reputation, it
will come to be regarded as a public nuisance, which ought
to be suppressed.

The House of Assembly in Jamaica, after pas,ing a Bill
declaring negro apprenticeship at an end on the Ist of
August next, appointed a Committee to prepare a petition,
a memorial, and a protest to her MAJESTY on the subject of
the abolition of the apprenticeship and further compensa-
tion. We must say that these planters and chiefly the
planters of Jamaica are a most singular race, and far ex-
ceed in impudence the poor widow with two or three sons
unprovided for, whom Sir VVALTER SCOTT described as the
most impudent of all beggars. The proprietors in several
of the smaller islands had set the laudable example
of providing for the complete emancipation of their slaves
on the Ist of August. The Marquis of SLIGO and other,
proprietors of negroes in Jamaica had announced their in-
tention of perforwing the same act of justice and mercy to
all on their estates. The outcry against want of faith on the
part of the planters, and the demand for the speedy c t-n-
-pletion of the contract raised spontaneously and universally
throughout the British dominions had become too strong for
the Government to resist; yet these planters, whoby ahappy
combination of circumstances have been at last compelled to
do an act of justice, for which they have been paid threefold,
still cry spoliation and robbery, and petition the QUEEN for
further compensation. We doubt if there is an instance
on record of such ingratitude and madness, or if even
these persons themselves could have committed any other
act so calculated to establish the opinion entertained of
them by all impartial men in this country. The British
people consider that they have paid ten times more than the
planters were entitled to ; and if the account were opened
anew between them and the Legislature, we doubt much,
so bad has been their conduct, if the Government would
venture to make even the first proposition of Lord STAN-
LEY for a loan of fifteen millions. We are quite certain
that nine out of ten of the many thousands that petitioned
for immediate Emancipation would raise their voices
against that ; yet they petition for more than the twenty
millions, and call on the present Government to do what no
Government could do without committing self-de-
struction. We were anxious that the planters them-
selves should have the merit of putting the last
hand to this work of mercy, and in such a way as
to merit the good opinion of the British nation, as well
as of the negroes. Unfortunately they have thought fit to
act otherwise ; but, like most evils, this Act is mixed up
with some good. It will teach the friends of the negroes
to watch the conduct of these masters, and take care that
men so habituated to the evils of slavery, shall not establill
it in another shape.

The omnipotence of public opinion was never more
strikingly exhibited, than in the despatches received yester-
day at the Colonial-office, announcing the total abolition of
the apprenticeship system in the West Indies. Well night
Lord BROUGHAM, in the House of Lcrds, List night, con-
gratulate the Abolitionists, and the country, on the triumph
obtained by the advocates of unqualified etnam.ipatien, by
the mere force of convictions based upon the ptinciples of
eternal justice, and addressed to the moral sense of ti;e
British people. Such a triumph over prejmliee, error, a
dread of retaliatory ver.g• once, and self interest, is adrni
rably calculated to encourage a nation i i the most arduous
struggles against oppression ; and to inspire even a minority
with a sure conviction that if their cause be just, tit: y
will eventually surmount every difficulty. Ta Lo. d
BROUGHAM the greatest praise is due, fur the zeal with
which, fur so'many years of an active life, he devoted him-
self both " in season, and out of season" to the amehor
lion of the condition of the African population of our
West Indian colonies. His Lordship has, however, his
richest reward in the success which has attended his humane
and benevolent exertions ; and had the present GovernmeLt
no stranger claim to public support and rational confid:
than what it m ty derive from having honestly and promptly
co-operated with him in achieving the emancipation of tin
negroes on tho Ist of August next, we should be the first
to maintain that it would be imp sssible to estab'ish the in.
herent justice of the Ministerial policy on less ques-
tionable foundation. Lord GLENELG'S explication of his
opinions, and explanation of his conduct upon the slave
question list night, were ail that the righteous opponents
of a must unholy system could expect or. require. 11i:
Lordship preferred persuasion to force, and the te,ult I.a •
proved that he acted wisely and humanely for all pa- tie.--
that in consultiag the prcju lies and the pride of tl.c mair-
ters he effcctuolly providod for the b 'St interests of the
apprentices. Though a few of the Crown Colonies
had not recommended the iinmedi ite abolition of the ap-
prenticeship system up to the 10th of June—the d..te of
the latest nal f-orn the West Itches—a eferen.c to the
xtracts from the Jamaica Jout nals, publishe 1 in moodier
part of the Sun, will satisfy our readers that there is
longer the shadom of a doubt of their following the mag-
nanimous example set them by Antigua, Borbadees,
Jamaica, Ind the other islands in which the last remnant of
slavery has been so nobly abolished by the local Legisla-
tures. That such is the conviction of Lord Brroucitam is
manifest from his consenting to withdraw his umfon for
bringing the question more immediately under the jurisder-
tion of her MAJEST Y in Council.

In the event of slavery being abolished, noatin
and in fact, throughout the British dotninions en the first
of August next, we would respectfully suggest the setting
apart that day as a solemn festival throughout the British
dominions. Few days in the Christian Calendar—few
events in the history of the human race—are more worthy
of national commemoration than that on which a natioa
spontaneously and solemnly agreed to renounce for evcr
the comm;sslon of one of the greatest outrages
upon liberty and morality that ever disgraced the
human species. Who, even among the most Ugotted
Churchmen, would think of comraring the anniversary
of the decapitation of an unconstitutional Sovereign, or
the discovery of a gunpowder plot, with the anniversary of
a day which for ever fr ed the British nation from the
foul stain of trafficking in human flesh ?—which abo-
lished the last remnant of every claim of man in
man as personal property ? It is surely more glorious and
mare soul-inspiring to commemorate the transcendent,
virtuous achievements if nations, than to recall the recol-
lection of crimes which can neither be expiated, nor serve
at a warning to the community, Of the men who, by
their untiring efforts have contributed most to the total
abolition of slavery, the brief limits of this article will not
allow us to say a word. But their names shall or 4 be
forgotten with the nationality of England.

In the last Number of the " Edinburgh Review,".in the
masterly article on the " Character of Lord CHATHAM,"
the Reviewer quotes a letter of GEORGE the THIRD
whi,h we here subjoin, fur we understand it has never bc:
fore been publi3hed. It is written in answer to Lord
NORTH'S proposal for putting Mr. W. PITT'S name in
Lord CHATHAM'S pension The making Lerd CHAT-
HAM'S family suffer for the conduct of their father, is rot
in the least agreeable to my sentiments. But I should
choose to know him to be totally unable to appear on the
public stage before I agree to any offer of that kind, lest it
should be wrongly construed a fear of him; and indeed his po-
litical conduct the last wiator was so abandoned, that hemust,

in the eyes of the dispassionate, have totally undone the
merit of his former conduct. As to any gratitude to be
expected from him or his
,family, the whole tenor of their
lives has shown them void of that most honouraide senti-
ment. But when decrepitude or death puts an end to him
as a trumpet of sedition, I shall make no difficulty in
placing the second son's name instead of tl.e father's, and
ma.king up the pension thr,e thouscrul pounds." We siy
nothing of the grammatical inaccuracy of this Royal
epistle—for Kiogs are privileged, and indeed ex-
peete4, to write bad grammar—but what is to be
said for the btFe, vindictive, unrelenting spirit
that breathes through it ? His MAJESTY will not
accede to his favourite Lord No RT tfs proposal—
though it exact no sacrifice, and is sew cely even a fat our—
until WILLJ AM PITT is compelled to sac fur his bounty ili
fin nia pauperis.- When he satisfactorily shows that. Lis
alTairs are in such a state, that he hat vo other resource
than to work on the rou:, or apply to the parish for
relief, then, arid not till then, the high-minded GEORGE
the 'FIIIRD—" the good old King," as he has so often been
called by those who know nothing of his real character—
will do him—not an act of kindness, but of the most ordi-
nary justice I Mark, too, the delicacy of his allusion
to the "decrepitude or death" of the great CHATHAM,
which he evidently looks forward to with delight ; and
why? because that immortal Minister taught him to feel
his own insignificance, and obtain triumphs in which he
could not by any possibility have the remotest share, for no
one could suspect a GEORGE the THIRD of having either
the intellect to conceive, or the energy to carry through,
the grand designs of a CHATHAM! A more thorough despot
—a more consummate hypocrite—a monarch more sly,
tricky, and obstinate, or more fierce and relentless in his
enmities—never swayed the sceptre of Great Britain, than
this same overrated GEORGE the THIRD. Woe be to
his memory, when history, guided by stern truth, takes
the pen in hand

The Benefices Plurality Bill went through Committee
in the House of Lords last night. The ostensible object
of this Bill, as our readers are aware, is to apply a remedy
to that crying abuse in the Church commonly called " Plu-
ralism," which is founded on the notion, now pretty nearly
exploded, that a Clerical instructor of the people can be
in more places than one at the same time. How far the
measure will answer the end proposed may be judged
from the fact, that it does not prohibit Pluralism
in cases where the parishes farmed by the Pluralist
are not more than ten miles apart. An attempt was made
by Lord PORTMAN to introduce an amendment, prohibit-
ing any clergyman from holding two filings unless the pa-
rishes were contiguous. This, he very justly argued, would
be the next thing to a declaration that pluralities ought to
be entirely abolished, and would besides render the mea-
sure intelligible, which it was not in its present form. The
Bishops immediately took the alarm, and his Grace the
Arch-hierarch was pushed forward to declare that such a
course as that proposed by the Noble Lord could, by no
possibility, be admitted, because the clause on which the
amendment was moved had been agreed to, first, by the
Ecclesiastical Commissioners, alias the Right Reverend
CHARLES JAMES, and then by the whole 11;glit Reverend
Bench, who were of opinion that the orthodox way of deal-
ing with an abuse—a great and acknowledged evil—in the
church was to steer a middle course between its entire
removal and its flourishing in the rankest luxuriance. The
happy medium in this case was to fix ten miles as
the maximum distance between benefices held in plurality.
The most Reverend Father, with a truly paternal solici-
tude for the spiritual interests of the Church, also remarked
that such a sweeping Reform as that proposed by the
amendment would play the deuce with the Curates, who
would be dismissed in great numbers, and younkers without
experience, holding benefices, be compelled (hcu rtefar !) to
perform their clerical functions in person.
Some trifling alterations were allowed to be made in a
few of the clauses, and the Bill was ordered to be reported
on Friday. The measure, like all the other Church mea-
sures, is little better than a mockery.

CP C .;COW,

This case came before their Lordships for the second time upon ap-
peal f.om tire decision of the Ccurt of S.:sslons in Scotland; the qurs.
Con in the case was whether persons holding the degree recently insti.
toted by the College of Glasgow of Masters in surgery were tn_
titled to practice surgery wiltitt the bounds of a charter of incur.
potation granted by James the First, in 1599, to the respondents,
which charter was aft-rwards ratified in 1672 by the Scotch Par-
liament ; the respenflents contet:ding ,that no person could prac.
tise surgery within the limits of the grant without a
license from the'n; instituted an action of suspension and interdict, for
the purpose of restraining certain indisidinds from practi,ing. Art
action of declarator was also brought by the appellants for the purpose
of having it declared that the posession of the degree of Master in Sur.
gory from the College was entitled to practice within the bounds of the
Favu ty's charter. These two actions were referred to the Court of
Session, who, after mature consi.:4-ration, came to the opinion that with-
out the license of the Faculty of Physicians, no person could practise
st.r3ery within the district cover. dby the grant. From that decision the
Case came before the House upon bppeal some time since, when it was
remitted back to the Court of SC6slOl), with further instructions. The
Judges in Scotland stilt adhering to their for ner opinion, the case now

THREE O'CLOCK.

EXTRAORDINARY ACCIDENT.—On Thursday,
ettwo and three o'clock in the afternoon, as a noddy belonging
tboZtr.mei
Robertson, with two persons on the driver's box, was proceeding
down Duke-street, the horse made a sudden attempt to turn into the
York-lane. In order to cheek this movement, the person
besidestibles
the driver seized the left rein and pulled the horse's head simartly
round, at the same time causing one of its legs to strike against the
wheel of the noddy. The animal being frightened, perhaps, with
great fury instantly darted down Duke-street, turned into Abercromby-
place, and overset the coach into the sunk area of the house of Dr.
'Taylor, No. lin that street. The consequence was, that the vehicle
was clashed entirely to pieces, the horse killed, and the driver's arm bro-
ken in two places, besides one of his alleles thrown out of joint. The
person who was on the dickey beside him was also severely hurt, but for-
tunately escaped without any broken bones. About forty feet of the
iron-railing and parapet stone were thrown down with the concussion.
The driver wa, taken to the Royal Infirmary, where, upon inquiry, we
learn that he is doing well.—Scotsman.

That beautiful phenomenon, the Zodiacal Light,
was seen at Durham a little after nine o'clock in the evening of the 3d
instant.—Durham Herald.
