MARKING NEWSPAPERS.

Colonel Thompson, in a letter to the Secretary of the
Hull Reform Association, makes the following amongst
many other remarks, on the subject of markins newspapers
transmitted through the post :—ln the Morning Herald of
the 20th September, are some statements connected with
the marking of newspapers under the Newspaper Postage
Act, involving the conduct both of individuals pointed out,
and of the Liberal Members generally, on which the editor
has been invited to insert a counter-statement, with the
name of the author ; and as he has declined complying in
any shape with the custom of the press on like occasions,
I have a right to assume that there is a political object in
keeping up the misrepresentation, and that there is conse-
quently a political object in exposing it. It is intimated in
the paper mentioned (last column of second page), that
the Members who assume the title of Liberals were too
busy in attending to some concerns of their own, to mind
those of the people on this occasion ; and the Member For
Kilmarnock is particularly pointed at, as not " ha`,7ing
thought it worth while to secure to the public, •ven the
small privilege of marking a paragraph in a netvspaper sent
by post."
If the writer of the article had possessed as good op-
portunities of knowledge as I had, he would have known
that the Member for Kilmarnock made a most pointed re-
presentation on the subject to ale House, and specified an
instance where a London Newspaper addressed to him dur-
ing one of his cloak:11 contests, was charged fifteen shil-
lings in consequence of a paragraph in it being marked.
And to prove that I do not speak without what the French
call connaisance de cause, I was the man that marked and
sent him the paper, containing a paragraph favourable to
his election, and which he would very probably have been
glad to see at the expense of fifteen shillings, if he had
known of it. Whether this was the handywork of some re-
tainer of the Post Office of opposite political principles, is
never likely to be known. But what may happen to one
political party may happen to another ; and the wise and
desirable thing would be to remove the evil altogether.
• .

I assure you, that as to the Chancellor of the Exchequer
saying it would be better to leave the matter to the discre-
tion of the Post-office, with the rest of what is added in the
Herald, he said, so far as I am capable of giving evidence,
nothing of the kind at all. When urged to admit in the
most guarded terms the drawing a line down the margin
of a paragraph, he utterly refused and rejected the smallest
approach to concession. What he did say was, that he
thought Members of Parliament might be allowed to re-
ceive newspapers marked ; a thing nearly useless to them,
unless they are also allowed to transmit newspapers marked
into the country, to say nothing of the gratuitous privation
of the rest of the community.

CHURCH-RATES.—On Friday morning a meeting
was held at Royston, Essex, called by the churchwardens,
for the purpose of making a rate for repairs of the church
and the expenses of the service. James Wortham, Esq.,
the senior churchwarden, took the chair, and made a state-
itnent of accounts, from which it appeared there was an ar-
rear of about 30/. He stated the estimate of the necr-„_
sary repairs to be 8.51., but thought it better that o-,;iy a
portion of that sum should be included in the ariount he
now called on the parishioners •to raise ; and,, therefore,
proposed a rate of one shilling in the pound., This motion
was seconded by the junior churchwP.Yden. An amend-
ment was then proposed, that tub further consideration
of the question should, be adjenrned until fourteen days af-
ter the end of the next sesbion of Parliament. The feeling
of the meet:v, was decidedly against the rate, and on a di-
vision taking place there appeared upwards of seventy for
ft° amendment, and only six against it. The rate was thus
lost by a large majority.

A Noble Lord, accused of unfair dealing at cards,
is said to have levanted ; and the Club at which the oc-
currence is said to have taken place, is about to be broken up.
The following is given as the Club-scene :—A party were
playing whist ; and when one of the players, the Noble
Lord, had shuffled the cards, Mr. placed his hand on
the pack, and called for the groom-porter. When the
latter entered, the room, Mr. -- desired him to bring
paper, wax, and tape. These were brought, and Mr.
then, directed the waiter to seal up the packet, to keep it
611 the next day, and then lay it before the Committee.
At six, next morning, the Noble Lord left town for the
Netherlands.

An affair of honour of a very ludicrous character
took place at South Molton on Thursday. It appears
that the dapper medical gentleman of that ton most
particular as to the make, colour, and fit of his kids
s.
waggish young attorney; residing there, seeing his friend
gloves on the table, took the liberty of inserting a por-
tion of lampblack into the fingers of them. The disciple
of Esculapius being called out to visit a female patient,
put on his gloves and proceeded to her house, where, to
his mortification, the usual act of arranging his curly
locks produced a laugh from the:invalid ; his eye catching
the glass, he discovered his fair forehead covered with
black streaks, and on looking, at his hands he found them
in the same state. Stung with mortification, he rushed
from the house, and charged the limb of the law with
being the cause of his sufferings ; an altercation ensued,
which, however, terminated
.amicably, The company pre.,
sent at the explanation feeling anxious to carry exi, the
joke the lawyer had begun, induced him to R4lni 4 17ial-

Made an order for both to give sureties to keep the
peace for twelve months. The lawyer immediately put
in bail, but the doctor's ire was so raised at the denoue-
ment of this last outrage, that he declared he would re-
main in prison for ever rather than give up his power of
calling his antagonist to an account for his behaviour, and
he was consequently eommitted,in default of bail—Exeter

INGENIOUS CONTRIVANCE.-1)11r1W, seasons of
drought millowners entirely dependent oaVvater power have
frequently been compelled to suspend, 'their business half
the time they should be at work. A, meeting of millowners
was held on the 14th at Aslitc4- on-Lyne, to which a
report was submitted by Mr. .A.s},worth, the engineer, on
the means of correcting the er;il by means of reservoirs.
He calculated that 27,000,W,1 cubic feet of water would
afford a supply for eight ',veeks, at twelve hours to the day,
of thirteen cubic feet second ; but, in consequence of
the extensive surface The country to supply this reservoir
he expected it to bc.: 6'ded four times in the year, thus in-
creasing the additiolial supply for eight months, after the
rate of thirteen cr:nic feet per second. This he hoped to
accomplish at an annual expense of 213/. 155., being-about
7s. per horse-power, or Bs. 6d. per perpendicular foot of
fall occupied. It was resolved to apply to Parliament in
the enseang session for power to construct two reservoirs
on the plan suggested by the engineer.—Boston Herald.
Yesteulay morning, between seven and eight o'clock,
a Young woman, named Mary Collins, was taken to the
N0..1h London Hospital, in Upper Gower-street, apparently
I,ifeless, and with her clothes completely saturated with
blood. It was ascertained that, she was labouring under
the effects of a violent kick on the lower part of the ab-
domen, which bad been inflicted on her by her husband, an
Irish labourer, who has since absconded. The wretched
sufferer was left by the inhuman brute lying senseless on
the floor of the room 'where she lodged, in Colebrook-court,
Fitzroy-market, and would have bled to death but that a
stream of her blood flowed underneath the door of the
room across the landing-place, and into the apartment of a
fellow-lodger. Her death is momentarily expected.
DEATHS FROM BURNING.—Last ni, litthree se-
parate inquisitions were taken in succession by Mr. Payne,
at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, before the same Jury, on the
bodies of as many persons, all of whom had met their deaths
from burning by accidents completely distinct.
The improvements in the Royal gardens of Belgium
have proceeded rapidly under the superintendence of the
King's English Conservator. Her Majesty is said to be
very desirous of spending two or three weeks at Clare-
mont, and the King will probably bring her over next
Spring.
The parish of St. Giles, Cripplegate, In the City,
is renowned for the many local antiquities associated with
objects of public interest which it contains,. In the church-
yard lie the remains of Milton, Benuraont, Fletcher, and
Massinger ; and amongst the old. p'irish records is shown
the signature of Oliver Cromm:ll, and that of Ri‘th, his
wife, on their marriage, writt(in in a bold and legiLle hand.
The sites of the houses of. Prince Rupert and General
Fairfax are seen in the neighbourhood of Moor-lane ;at
the back of a baker's oven in Red Cross-street is the ori-
ginal Half-moon Battery ; the finest vestige of the old Lon-
don wall is in the churchyard ; and the Crown public-house,
in Red Cross-street, still exists, where Alilton and other
sturdy republicans of his time, used, to associate in the
hours of his relaxation from the pursuits of his school,
which he kept in the neighbourhcmd.
MademoiseTie Taglioni was exhibiting to a French
Royalist, few days ago, a clasp, which the Duke of Or-
leans given to her at C(Jmpiegne. It is a rather pretty
store, of little value, and the aresent is certainly not a loyal
one. "Le cadeau est }hen digne de lui," observed M. de
L*.'" 4' 'to Mdlle. Taglioni, " mais n'est pas digne de
vous."

THE LATE GALES.— Accounts of total or partial
wrecks during the very boisterous weather that has' latterly
prevailed continue to pour in from all quarters. Almost
the whole coast of England has been affected by them ; but
we arc happy to say that, with the exception of the melan-
choly wreck of the Clarendon, and one or two other in-
stances which we have mentioned, the loss of life has not
b2en so great as was, under the circumstances, to be feared.
IRISH MAIL PACKET.—On the evening of
the 10th inst., the rixen, Evans, delivered the last Irish
mail, and proceeded up to the new packet station at Hobb's-
point, and took the first Irish mail from thence to Dun-
more on the morning of the 11th. The packet boats be-
tween Milford and Waterford were originally established in
the year 1787, nearly .50 years, and up to the 15th of April,
in the year 1824, sailing cutters of about 80 tons, hired by
contract, carried the mail•bag and passengers. From the latter period four steam-boats, of about 80 horse-power,
were put on the station, and have continued so ever nine©
most regularly and successfully, and without any accident
or casualty of any moment. It is generally supposed that
the expenses of the crew and wear and tear of each packet
stand the Post-oflice, on the average, between three and
four thousand pounds per annum, and that the receipts hi-
therto will not average the expenses of one packet ; but an.
increase of passengers may now be obtained by a greater
convenience of embarkation.—Cambrian.
LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 17.
We have had a dull market to-day. Sales, 1,500 bad, at

THE VIVID.—A paragraph havir.ig gone the round
of the London papers stating that th!Ls vessel had sustained
great injury, and was in an almost sinking state off Yar-
mouth, during the gale on Wednesday night last, and nirni-
lar reports being currentere,
we feel it incumbent upon
us to state that this versel returned here yesterday. If the
Vivid had sustained the injury described by the London
Press, she could 'not have returned to Hull laden, as she
was, with a l=arge and valuable cargo of merchandise, and
PrenatiP.-1 to the eye so little effects of the storm.—Hull
(14417-ver of Tuesday.

Tuesday afternoon a couple of fellows, whose
names it was impossible to learn, purchased a horse at Bell-
isle for the Sharpe's-alley (Cow-cross, Smithfield) con-
sumption,
as the
having beaten and goaded the wretched
animal
a theßigrygge Wells-road, it could go no farther,
s far
and it sunk to the earth, immediately opposite Ottey's Ita-
lian warehouse. The inhuman fellows finding that, after a
shower of blows, the poor horse could not get up, it was
despatched by a blow on the head with a pole-axe, and car-
ried away upon a knacker's cart. The scene, altogether'
created the utmost feelings of disgust.
MURDER.—On Tuesday,, at Carrington, a fellow
named Perry was committed to take his trial for the.wilfril,
murder of W. Renshaw, a lacemaker, who was stabbed in
the abdomen by Terry &ling a scuffle.

FiTIINE BROTHERS, in HAMBURG,
and to observe, .i.`list a letter with one inclosure doubles the Postage
only, but several icte_losures would by far increase the same. Thus
10/., 201., or 307., fo; instance, if remitted in One Bank of Eng-
land Note would only cause double Postage, but 101. remitted in
two notes, would be liable: to a much higher charge. It is there-
fore most advisable, for any Person having to remit Money to Ham-
burgh, to forward the amouni in One Note ; or having to receive
Money from Hamburgh, to rec:•ive the same in One Note, when-
ever possible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England,
surpassing the usual amount of On,' Bank of England Note, may

LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 20, 1836.

We have been better pleased with the ATTORNEY
GENERAL'S speech to his Edinburgh constituents,
than with that which he delivered at the public dinner
lately given to him by the Reformers of Cupar. On
the one occasion he said little or nothing ; on the
ether he spoke to the point, though his opinions on
the vital question of Peerage Reform are not alto-
gether such as we were prepared to expect from, him.
He has hopes of their Lordships. We have none.
He thinks that the next Session will find them mate-
rially advanced on the high road to political perfec-
tion. We, in common with the majority of Refor-
mers, think that it will find them just as tolerant
—just as discreet--just as susceptible of amend-
ment as ever they were. Nevertheless, we are
far from denying that an overwhelming display
of public feeling—,such as was manifested du-
ring the progress of the Reform Bill—will terrify
the Lords into something like decorum ; but are we to
have a convulsion every year ht order to bring about
this desirable result ? Is conviction-1 to be brought to
aristocratic minds only through the medium of that
worst of arguments, a popular outbreak ? Is trade
.to
be paralyzed—are public securities to be jeopardized
—men's thoughts and in;!elings to he kept in the high-
est state of excitement— order that a hundred and
seventy Tc-try Peers may be ir:duced to pass a me.; sure es-
sential to the public welfare ? Are our legitimate CPII-
- rights to be secured by no sacrifices
short of these ? Impossible ! If one party is to suf-
fer, let it be the few, not the many—the Peers not the
people. The former are the aggressors ; let them,
then, pay the penalty. But though we differ from Sir
JOHN CAMPBELL in his ideas of the future policy of
the Lords ; though we have not the slightest hope
that they will make one single concession in a right
spirit, or at the proper season ; yet we cordially agree
with him in the necessity of the strictest union among
all classes of Reformers. If it was necessary last ses-
sion, it will be doubly so the next. Our divisions are
the Conservatives' strength. They have no hope but
in our quarrels. Let us therefore combine, one and
all ; throw aside those petty theories and subtle points
flifferenee which—as they have so often, alas done—
Iteep one Reformer aloof from another ; and apply our
confederated energies to one grand purpose—that of
hurrying forward Ministers in the path of constitu-
tional improvement. Shall Tories only be united, and
Reformers fight shy of each other ? We have all seen
'what may be done by union. Union carried the Re-
form Bill. Union reinstated Lord MELBOURNE in
office ; and union will either bring the Lords to a sense
of their duty, or procure a reform of their institution.
Sir J. CAMPBELL, we see, advises the people to
hold public meetings, and, above all, to pour in peti-
tions to the Legislature, by way of showing that they
will no longer submit to be trifled with. This is sound
advice, so far as the CommoDs are concerned ; but as
for petitioning the Lords in the present deplorable
state of hallucination, we may just as well memo-
rialize Be3lam. No ; if petitions are to 6,7
presented,
they must be presented to the Lower House of Par"
ment. There, at least, they will be treated with re-
spect, and make the requisite impression ; but in the
Upper House they will only be received and rejected
with contempt.

The first Anniversary Dinner of the Trdesmen's
Conservative Association took place on Tuesday last
at Liverpool. With incredible difficulty a few hun-
dreds were got together—the majority, no doubt, under
the pleasing hope of dining gratis, in which rational
expectation, it gives us the sincerest satisfaction to
tat they were not disappointed. But as no pleasure
these gratis-feeding Con-
s '...unalloyed by yam, 8°

servative tradesmen were compelled to listen to
hours to speeches which might have closed the
hundred eyes of an Argus ; and which nothing
could possibly have induced them
.to submit to,
but the cheering reflection that when the bill was
called for, they would have nothing to pay. This, we
say, and no other. must have been their inducement
to listen to and applaud such a remark as the follow-
ing, was enunciated by a gentleman who
sat in a big chair, with a couple of bits of
striped bunting above his head, and called himself
a President :—" Gentlemen, the Church of Eng-
land is connected with our glorious Constitution,
being emphatically the Church, which is founded on
the doctrines of the Scriptures." " Founded on the
doctrines of the Scriptures !" What, an Establishment
abounding in pluralists—in Deans and Chapters, and
golden Prebends—in half-starved Curates, and Bishops
with more than princely revenues---a Church like this
" founded on the doctrines of the Scriptures !" Was
ever such a preposterous abstudity ? We suppose we
shall be told next that LUKE advocates the propriety
of Archbishops possessing fifteen thousand per
annum ; that TIMOTHY is eloquent in praise of non-
residence ; and that PAUL insists on the right of par-
sons to collect their tithes through the apostolic me-
dium of a blunderbuss ! The remainder of the
speeches made at the Liverpool Conservative feed were
on a par with this bright remark of the PRESIDENT ;
we shall therefore leave " expressive silence" to
" muse their praise."

The whole of the Paris Papers of Tuesday have
been received. The Moniteur announces that by a
decision of the 17th, the KING, at the earnest en-
treaty of MM. PEYRONNET and CIIANTELAUZE,
Ministers of the ex-King CHARLES X., has ordered
them to be liberated from the prison of Ham, and to
reside on their parole, M. PEYRONNET at Mont-
ferrand, in the department of the Gironde, and
M. CIIANTELAUZE on his estates in the de-
partment of the Loire. The health of both gen-
tlemen has suffered greatly, owing to their long con-
finement ; but it is well known that they would have
obtained their release long ago, had they consented to
implore the mercy of Louis PHILLIPPE in his regal
capacity. Prince POLIGNAC and M. GUERNON DE
RANVILLE have refused to solicit the Royal cle-
mency, and are, therefore, not included among those to
whom it has been extended.

The French journals take more notice of the pre-
sence of Sir ROBERT PEEL and Lord LYNDHURST
in Paris than the affair deserves. A plot hatched, in
concert with M. MOLE, against any party in this
country, would derive no additional danger from the
presence of such a President of the Council as Louis
PHILLIPPE has now the honour to command.

Letters from Algiers, of the Bth instant, addressed
to the Courrier Francais, leave no doubt on the sub-
ject of Marshal CL A USEL'S determination to begin
his expedition to Constantina between the 20th and
25th. The Marshal had not then heard of General
DA VREMONT'S mission to Africa. Rumours were
in circulation of letters, addressed by A BD-EL-KA DER
to his Chiefs, having been intercepted, which proved
that he was reduced to great extremities. One of
them, in the form of a proclamation to the inhabitants
who had submitted to the French, ran thus :

" Praise be to God !
" To all the Oulad Sili Ghanems,—You are Mussulmans,
and so were your fathers and ancestors. How does it hap-
pen that you trusted to infidels ? You respect no longer
either God or your fathers. We always did you good ;we
never injured you, and we have constantly given you the
preference over all others. You have not been grateful to
for our predilection ; you have abandoned us, and even
becmi:e our enemies."

Vv
The ad; ices from Spain, published in the French
Papers of 'Tuesday, are unimportant. GomEz has
contrived to elude the vigilance of his pursuers, and pro-
bably ere this has regained the mountains of Valencia.
The recall of M. DE ST. PRIEST, the French
Ambassador at Lisbon, is attrii,z3ted to the complaints
made against him by the British Minister. According
to the Messager, his Excellency advised the QUEEN
and PRINCE ROYAL to proclaim the Coostitution,
and to decline all offers of support tendered by Lord
HOWARD DE WALDEN. M. DE ST. PRIEST will
be succeeded at the Court of Lisbon by the present
French Ambassador at Madrid.
