This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to
the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its
first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged
by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general
principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in-
teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the
result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class
of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been
either altogether overlooked, or trsdted almost with indiffer-
ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial
and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who
traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en-
couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the
regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects
sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the
authors have fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex-
clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of so
doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in-
vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise
from certain secret praetices, can only be acquired by an ex-
clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical
practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, whersin
affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of
consumption, which, however, when traced to their source,
are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves
that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more
applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in
saying that there is no member of society by whom the book
will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation
of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman.
The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining
away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse-
quence of some disease, which, for want of careful investiga-
tion of its real cause, has been set clown to the score of con-
sumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find,
that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both
sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption,
heart disease, takes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by
youth much mere frequently than it is at all suspected.
The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at
least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will,
by. perusing. this work, be directed and very much
assisted in investigating and detecting the too often con-
cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the
health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com-
promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He will
here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of
this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when
delicacy of health should appear to attack any of •his young
charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus
he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state.
The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once
concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will
here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which
youth is addicted; he will also be enabled to point,out the dis.
astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not
relinquished.
Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London.
Country Patients are requested to be as minute as possible in
the detail of their cases—as to the duration of the complaint,
the symptoms, age, general habits of living, and occupation in
life of the party ; the communication must be accompanied by
the usual Consultation Fee of IL, without which no notice
whatever can be taken of their application ; and in all oases, the

SUDDEN DEATH OF A GENTLEMAN IN THE
STREET.—On Wednesday Mr. Wakley held an inquest,
at the Marylebone workhouse, on the body of a gentleman,
name unknown, about the middle age. It appeared that
on Friday afternoon last, deceased was observed to bo
walking at a slow pace along Oxfori-street, apparently
in good health, when arriving at the corner of Orchard •
street, he fell to the ground as though shot. Being
picked up he was carried to the house of a surgeon, when
life was found to be extinct, and he was subsequently
brought to that workhouse. Deceased was well dressed,
and of very gentlemanly appearance, but nothing was
found on him which could lead to a clue as to his name
or connections. Verdict—Natural death.

HOOD'S NEW COMIC ANNUAL.—As fire-side
enjoyments ars now looked for as the most pleasant neces-
saries of life, and the pleasantest of them all is an amus-
ing book, such as may be read aloud, to the entertain-
ment of every family circle, we anticipate the universal
gratification which is sure to be created by the publica-
tion of a work so pregnant with amusement as the forth-
coming volume of " Hood's Comic Annual." We have
heard from good authority, that both in its literary and
pictorial departments it is equally rich in amusement,
the author having opened a fresh vein in the apparently
exhaustless mine of humour he has worked so profit-
ably, which the artist, Mr. Leech, in conjunction with
Mr. Hook, has rendered still more valuable by the addi-
tion of nearly forty illustrations, equally rich in origi-
nality and point, which have been engraved by the best
artists.

MEETING of the BELGIAN' SENATE

SPEECH OF THE KING OF BELGIUM.
GENTLEmes,—Notwithstanding certain foolish and
odious attempts, we may congratulate ourselves on the
circumstances under which we open the session.
A good understanding is once more established among
the great European Powers ; the attitude of Belgium,
during the difficult trial she has undergone, has again
testified to her sentiments of order and nationality.
My relations with foreign Cabinets have preserved that
character of benevolent confidence which assures every
day the position of Belgium.
The labours of the Corniniszions instituted at the ter.
mination of the treaty of peace have received a new im-
petus, and we can foresee the time when all the ques-
tions left undecided will simultaneously meet with a com-
plete and definitive solution.
The second exposition of the national industry attested
increased improvement ; with the fact of so great success
in production, the necessity of extending our external
relations can only be felt still more keenly.
Commercial negotiations are opened with different
Powers, the results of some of which will be communi-
cated to you ; others are still going on according to the
principles of national policy and a wholesome apprecia-
tion of our material interests.
The harvest, at one time menaced, now appears to be
sufficient, and, thanks to Divine Providence, I hope that
measures, at one time contemplated, will be no longer
necessary.
The moral and intellectual condition of Belgium is
still the object of my unceasing and active solicitude.
The creation of an Academy of Medicine has filled up
a void, the inconvenience of which had long been felt.
The Government has contributed to give fhe most
complete organization to one of our oldest academies of
painting and sculpture.
The competition among the
impulse to academical studies.

Instruction
tna•
upon a more extended basis.
I consider it my duty to call your attention to the
secondary and primary branches of public instruction,
but claiming the priority of attention for the last. named:
it is a question of social order worthy of our most lively
interest. _

Independently of the Report required every year by
the law relative to the highest branches of public in-
struction, an account will be presented to you of the two
other degrees of instruction : in those accounts you will
find much useful information to assist you in the pro-
gress of your discussions:
The experience offive years has made manifest several
deficiencies in the communal law : propositions tending
to surround the system of municipal finance with new
guarantees are prepared, and will be forthwith presented
to you. Everything indicates that, in the communal or-
ganization itself, an important modification is become
necessary.
The law regarding civil competence has rendered, in
cases of the slightest importance, the obtaining of justice
tar more easy and much less expensive than heretofore :
it will permit the Courts of Appeal to accelerate the
decision of causes within their province.

The duties of Justices of Peace being now definitively
fixed, the new circumscription of the cantons may be
decreed : you will receive the remainder of the proposi-
tions, a part of which is already in your possession.
Many judicial persons, as well as those connected with
them in subordinate situations, receive salaries by no
means adequate to the magnitude of the duties they have
to perform, nor indeed to keep up a proper station in
social life : a Bill having for its object to ameliorate the
position of the magistracy and the tour des comptes will
shortly be presented to you.
Prison discipline continues to improve. The reforms
to be introduced into establishments of public benevo-
lence, more especially into lunatic hospitals, have also re-
ceived the attention of the Government.

The works undertaken either by the State, the pro-
vinces, or the communes, are prosecuted with true emu-
lation ; all the lines of railway are adjudged, and the
day is not very remote when this great undertaking will
be completed.
Measures will be submitted to you with respect to our
navy, to the development of our foreign mails, and to
favour the circulation on our railways.
I hope that our resources will allow us to direct
our efforts to the amelioration of our navigation and
export trade.

the execution of the law upon the communal roads
has met with no obstacles ; the subsidy by you voted
has exercised the best influence.

We have had fewer accidents to deplore in the exploit-
ation of our mineral riches. At the same time that buy
Government re-established discipline among the work-
men, it provided for their future well-being, and that
of their families, by the institution of savings'-banks,
the last of which has been established and legally re-
The city which the Constitution has proclaimed the
capital of the Kingdom has been for several years in a
situation of difficulties from which, unaided, it has been
impossible to extricate itself ; but it ha determined at
great sacrifices to endow the State with establishments
which were wanting. A convention, which has just Leen
concluded for this purpose, will be submitted for your
approbation.
You will have, also, another question of national equity
to examine—in what manner to repair the disasters of
war.

A portion of the public revenue, paralysed by the
crises of late years, is in an improving state. Provisions
which circumstances authorize, and the application of a
wise economy, permit my Government to present to yen
for the year 1842, a budget offering a due equilibrium
between the receipts and expenditure, without being
obliged to have recourse to the creation of new burdens.
Let us fervently hope that no incident may arise to de-
stroy our hopes,j ustitied by our past and present situation.
The interests of national industry, commerce, and
navigation, as well as those of the Treasury, imperiously
call for the revision of the law upon sugars. Such a
revision will be proposed to you, and you will consider
in what manner it will be possible to satisfy all those
interests without creating an inequality of condition b•-
t wean the two interests to which the law will hereafter
be_applicable.

Propositions will be made to you to insure to our na-
tional fisheries every desirable protection, and to gua-
rantee still more efficaciously the laws against the abuses
committed by hawkers.

One branch of our most ancient national industry,
the linen trade, has been the object of an inquiry or-
dered by the Government ; the labours of the commis-
sion, recently terminated, will be communicated to you.
The army continues to justify my confidence and that
of the country. Some organic modifications in the
administration—others are in progress of execution—
all tend to perfect the condition of the army, to simplify
the march of its adnainistraiion, and to facilitate the
controul, as well as to increase the well-being, of the
soldier. You will learn with satisfaction that these re-
sults have been obtained without trenching upon the
subsidies you have already voted. It remains for you
to provide for the expenses of the two last months .of
the current year ; the budget presented to you for the
year 1842 is framed within the same limits, at the same
time containing measures favourable for a numerous
class of officers. •

Gentlemen, it is now ten years since I have presided
at the opening of the Belgian Chambers succeeding that
Congress which bequeathed us the example of Union.
It is with pride that we can carry back our recollections
to that important period, beset with so many difficulties.
In your presence, I rejoice to be able to congratulate
Belgium on the progress she has realised, in remaining
faithful to herself—constant in her sentiments of mora-
lity and religion. You will aid me by your counsel in
maintaining the Government of the country in her mo-
deration and impartiality. In responding to my wishes,
your session will be marked by useful and numerous la-
bours; by public gratitude, in the midst of that calm and
prosperity which will be our common reward.

BIRMINGHAM ANTI-CORN-LAW

ASSOCIATION.

Wednesday evening the most important and numerous
meeting yet held connected with the above Association,
took place in the Committee-room of the Town-hall, at
half-past six.
WM. SCHOLEFIELD, Esq., the President of the Asso-
ciation, rose and was received with 100(1 and long-conti-
nued cheering. He said, under whatever,aspect the
Corn-laws are viewed, one prominent object is ever visi-
ble. We never, for one moment, lose sight of the fact,
that these laws are a contrivance of the Legislature for
raising the price of corn, to make the chief support of
life among ninety-nine out of every hundred of our fel-
low-countrymen (agricultural labourers as well as our arti-
sans) clear. There are, however, Gentlemen, two principal
pleas on which these laws are defended. One is, that it is
necessary to make us independent of foreign nations ; the
other, that it is essential that we should protect native
industry. As regards the first, Gentlemen, I make bold
to say, that we are not now independent ; that we have
not been independent ; and that we never can be inde-
pendent.—(Hear, hear.) The recent large importations
of corn, the extensive orders for corn now in every grain
market in the Mediterranean, sufficiently prove that.—
(Cheers.) The history of the last half-century shows
that we have not been independent ; nay, Gentlemen, it
shows much more than this. During the war with
France, at a time when Napoleon's power was at its ze-
nith—when our demand for foreign supplies of corn was
great and pressing, great as was our dependence—great
as were the obstacles raised against us, never were our
importations more easily effected—never, I believe, was
so large a quantity of corn imported in a given period.—
(Hear and cheers.) That we never can be independent,
must be self-evident to all who reflect that our popula-
tion is increasing at the rate of nearly 300,000 a year,
whilst our amble land is, I believe, not only riot aug-
menting, but, from various causes, undergoing some dimi-
nution even in extent.—(Applause.) As regards the plea
of protection, it resolves itself into this consideration. If
protection be a good principle, its application should be
universal. • If it be good for the farmer it is good for
the manufacturer—it is good for everybody. Now, re-
member, Gentlemen, that the effect—the very object of
protection is to raise prices—to make the protected
articles dear.—(Hear.) Dearness, therefore, if this
principle be correct, is a blessing. The farmer who
can purchase a certain quantity of hemp or tallow, or
any other foreign production, with one day's labour
abroad, which ho can only get with two days' labour
at home, is bound by this principle rather to give two
two days' labour than one for the same article ; and the
manufacturer is instructed that it is his interest to buy
corn with two days' labour here, which he could procure
with one day's labour abroad. Wo are thus taught,
Gentlemen, that labour—the curse of God upon offend-
ing man—is a thing to be cherished. Before I sit down,
however, let me add one or two words with reference to
the Association, at whose summons you are present this
evening.—(Cries of " Hear, hear," and cheers.) It is now
several weeks since that Association was established ; and
though it already numbers many hundred members,
I confess that I am disappointed that its hundreds are
not thousands.—(Hear, hear.) The worst and most
obstinate enemy we have to encounter, Gentlemen, is that
prostrating apathy of the public mind which has so long,
unhappily existed. Gentlemen, the, enemy is at the
gates. We must be up and doing.---,(Loud`cheers.) The
time for parley is over. We must not stop to scrutinise
each other's politics.—(Applause.) Every honest man, be
he Tory, Whig, Radical, or Chartist, prepared to do
battle, lawfully and peacefully, against the Corn-laws, if
a friend. I, for one, will join him. I will toil with him.
We have toiled, and we will toil, and with the aid, or, is
needs must be (which God forbid 1) without the aid, of
the higher and wealthier of our fellow-townsmen—with
justice, peace, law, and order on our side,—we must and
will triumph.—(Loud cheers.)
The Rev. THOMAS SWAN then moved the first resolu-
tion, expressive of the opinions of the meeting respect-
ing the injurious effect of the Corn-law ; and in doing
so said :—ln the month of August I had the pleasure of
attending a Conference of Ministers of all denomina-
tions, held in 'Manchester, on the subject of the Corn-
laws ; 650 were present, and 1,500 are pledged to agita-
tion on the subject.—(Cheers.) By that movement the
men of Manchester did themselves immortal honour—
(Cheers)—and the beneficial results of that movement
may be incalculable. Only think of the injustice this
law. By Mr. Cobden it has been demonati-ated that the
working classes in this country, whose wages average
10s. a week, are paying an income-tax of 20 per cent. on
the article of bread alone—while the nobles and the
millionaires are scareely paying a fraction.—(Shame.)
The working classes of this country seem to me,
like the Saviour of the world, to be crucified be-
tween two thieves—the great landed, proprietor on
the one hand—the grasping, grinding capitalist on the
other.—(Loud and continued cheers.) The goodness of
God is impeded in its benignant course towards them.
Shall we not interfere on their behalf ? With regard
to the effect of these laws, what can be more disastrous?
—(Hear.) The country is in a fearful state; our mer-
chants and manufacturers are overwhehned with the
most gloomy foreboding.—(Cheers.) They are outdone
by foreign competition.—(Hear, hear.) The trade is
fast leaving the country. The Continent will manufac-
ture for herself—America will manufacture for herself;
whereas, but fur these laws, the corn of these countries
would-have been willingly given in exchange for British
manufactures. Even the -home trade materially
suffers. Thousands of honest people are starving for
want of food, &c. The steam-engines, in many dis-
tricts, are stopped; the mills and the manufactories are
closed.—(Hear, hear.) Are not these things disastrous?
Is it our immediate duty, then, in every legitimate mode,
to agitate for the immediate, unconditional, and total re-
peal of these laws.—(Loud cheers.)
Mr. GODDARD seconded the resolution in an able
speech.
Mr. SALT and the Rev. Mr. SUIREE also spoke in fa-
vour of the resolution, which was carried unanimously.
The Rev. Huart Hurrox moved the second resolution.
He rejoiced to find that the Association, of which he
would soon have the honour of being a member, had
adopted one invaluable rule for regulating the admission
of members ; it fixed the actual subscription of indivi-
duals at one shilling, and, in order to render it more
convenient for the poorest person in the community, they
had issued half-yearly tickets at sixpence each. Now, if
every working man in Birmingham who felt aggrieved
at the Corn-laws, would only put clown his sixpence
half-yearly, he (Mr. Hutton) believed the Corn-laws
would, in twelve months, be matter of history.
Mr. Alderman VAN WART seconded the resolution,
which was carried unanimously.
After some further resolutions had been adopted re-
lating to the laws and regulations of the Association,
The Rev. JAMES ALSOP proposed the next resolu-
tion. He said that nothing astonished him more than
the patience of the suffering population of this country.
When he read, in the accounts from Leeds, that it had
been ascertained that several thousand persons were
living upon eleven-pence halfpenny per week, and se-
veral thousands were living upon fourpence halfpenny a
week—(Cries of " Shame ")—he must say, he felt it an
honour to belong to a country where so much patience
and so much long suffering had been exemplified, He
had the honour of being one of the 650 ministers who had
attended the Conference at Manchester; and on that occa-
sion, in a conversation with Mr. Cobden, he asked that
gentleman how it was that the working men of that town
were so well instructed upon the subject of the Corn-
laws ; to which he replied, that they had put the sub-
ject bfore the people in a plain simple form, and made
them clearly understand it. He (Mr. Alsop) held in
his hand a few of the tracts, which were circulated at
Manchester ; and, with their permission, he would
read an extract from one of them, which would show
the manner in which they instructed the people. The
Rev. Gentleman then read the following quotation
from one of the tracts, and concluded by recommending
the adoption of similar publications to the Birmingham
Association :

" READ, MARK, AND LEARN.
1821 Population of the United Kingdom... 21,193,458
1831 do. do. ... 24,321,934
1841 At the same rate of increase as the

above, viz., 15 per cent. in 10. Years,
the population will be 27,971,084
" Our population increases nearly half a million every
year. There are a thousand more persons in this king-
dom to-day than there were yesterday ; there will be a
thousand more to-morrow than there are to-day ; and
every day there are an additional thousand mouths to be
fed. But the land of England does not increase one
inch in size in a hundred years. Yet the landlords say
you shall not eat any corn except it be grown upon their
land. Englishmen ! teach your children to lisp •No
Corn-laws !'"

Mr. Councillor W. JENNINGS seconded the resolution.
JOSEPH STURGE, Esq., then. presented himself. There
had been; many persons found favourable to the eight
shilling duty, not considering that it would hare the
effect of permanently fixing the price of corn at eight
shillings higher than that of any other country. He
considered it indispensably necessary to keep to the
point—to the total and immediate repeal.—(Loud cheers.)
Ile held in his hand a letter from a highly respectable
person in America (as we understood), in which the
writer said that the people of England would never con-
vince those of other countries of their honesty until they
went foi- a total and immediate repeal of the Corn-laws.
Mr. W.BARLOW wished to ask Mr. Sturge what would
be the effect of the eight shilling duty?
Mr. STURGE, in reply, said that the cost would be
twenty millions to this country. There were some con-
siderations now connected with the question which he
must say rather alarmed him. Formerly there were a great
many persons who left this country for America, upon
whom they set no great value; and emigration was, per-
haps, to a great extent, confined to that class. *When
in America lately he found that some of their best ma-
nufacturers and workmen were there carrying on those
branches of manufactures which had hitherto been the
pride and strength of this country.—(Hear.) Aware of
that tact, he felt anxious to carry a repeal of the Corn-
laws, in the hope of retaining the trade in this country,
and benefiting the industrious classes. He believed the
Corn-laws had done serious mischief. The resolution
he held in his hand had reference to a future meeting.
He was most anxious that the IN orking men should have.
correct information on the subject laid before them ; and
for that purpose the Association had resolved on in-
viting Mr. Curtis, of Ohio, to give a lecture in that
building.—(Hear, hear.) It was known that that gen-
tleman had already communicated some very valuable

PRICE 5d

information upon the subject ; and he had no doubt but
that his visit to Birmingham would be attended with the
most beneficial results. It was thought that Monday
evening, the 15th instant, would be a proper time for
the lecture, when they could also have the attendance of
their excellent friend Mr. Cobden.

The resolution was then put and carried unanimously.
After a vote of thanks to the Chairman the meeting
broke up at half-past ten o'clock.

SUSPECTED MURDER OF THE
LATE MR. WM.- BROOMHEAD, JUN.
(From the Sheffield Iris.) •
In consequence of a strong impression on the minds of
the relatives of the above lamented individual that he was
robbed of a sum of money after the discovery of the body,
Mr. Raynor, the superintendent of the police, was re-
quested to proceed to the spot and investigate the matter.
Accordingly last week ho went there, accompanied by
Mr. Ellis Broomhead, brother of the deceased ; upon in-
quiry, such information was obtained as caused him to
direct the apprehension of three individuals, who were
brought before the Magistrates at Bicester. The follow-
ing evidence was adduced:—
Susan Hine, of Blackthorne, said that on the 11th of
October last I set off along with my sister Rebecca to
Thime Fair. When we got on Blackthorne-bridge we
saw, in the second field from the road, Ezekiel Savage,
Thomas Penn, and Wm. Penn, stooping down and doing
something at what they had got out of the water. When
we returned home, we heard a man had been found
drowned. I told my mother we had seen the prisoners
standing beside the brook. Savage hearing of this, sent
for me, and told me to hold my tongue, and gave me 10s.
Another time he gave me ss. None of the prisoners said
what they had found. We thought it was a calf.
Rebecca Hine, her sister, gave similar testimony.
Mr. Norris deposed to the boy, William Penn. giving
information of the discovery of the body, on Monday
morning, Oct. 11. He found the deceased lying with
legs in the water nearly up to the middle ; his body was
out of the water, his waistcoat nearly, if not completely,
unbuttoned, and lying open ; they found in his pocket
five sovereigns, and Os. 4d. in silver, and the book now
in possession of Mr. Ellis Broomhead; there was nothing
in his inside waistcoat pocket.
Robert East, agent of Mr. Ward, of Ainslow-wharf,
said that on the 12th October, Savage came to the wharf,
and purchased of witness a load of coals, and tendered a
51. note. Thinks it was an Aylesbury note.
Other witnesses spoke as to notes tendered by Savage.
Mr. Stride, police-officer, Bicester, apprehended the
three prisoners, and found a quantity of drapery and the
two bills now produced of goods bought at Mr. Hitch-
man's and Mr. Gardener's, drapers.
The prisoners were remanded to Oxford for three
weeks, to give time to trace the notes.

MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR—Not having observed in your valuable Journal
any account of the Municipal Elections at Plymouth, I
forward for your notice the general results, if you think
proper to insert them:—

ELECTED THIS YEAR.

Liberals.

Tories.

Aldermen and Mayor... 6 0
REMAINING IN THE COUNCIL FROM FORMER YEARS.

This majority will do much to keep the parliamentary
election (should such an occurrence take place during the
ensuing year) in the position it ought to be in, and where
so far it always has been in Plymouth ever since the Re-
form Bill was passed in favour of the Liberals.
I am, Sir,

A LIBERAL BURGESS.
Plymouth, Nov. 9, 1841.

EDUCATION PERVERTED TO PO-

LITICAL PURPOSES.
TO THE, .RDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,•—t ism induced to trouble you with a few Atter-
yeti:yes relative to the late exposure of the system of
management of Sir Robert Peel's Political Charity
School. It must not be imagined that this is an isola-
ted instance of such an abuse of pseudo-charity to base
and selfish purposes ; the system prevails throughout all
the agricultural districts ; not a village, or a small town,
in which a similar system is not organized,
and. exercised with the utmost rigour against
all recusants from the paramount doctrine of
Church and State, as it is interpreted by the
most intolerant disciples of Toryism. The landed pro.
prietors are nearly all Tories, and disposed to support
their party by any available means ; not that they are
generally disposed to meddle personally with the dirty
machinery required to work the system, but they give
puzse and countenance, and fitting agents are never want.
ing to execute whatever may be required of them. The
parson of the parish—the minister of faith, love,
charity, and such out of date matters in these stormy
times of contention—he is chief political agent ; his im-
mt diate subordinates are the churchwardens, some of
the guardians, as a matter of course, the clerk to the
union, the relieving officers, and registrar of births,
deaths, and marriages—with a lawyer, and a few volun-
teers in aid of the regular corps. Can you be at a loss
to perceive the effective working of an organized esta-
blishment
of this description ? A registry of all votes
is kept, new votes are created where possible, old ones
objected to, and influences exercised throughout society
which are irresistible ; whilst, on the contrary, neither
Whigs nor Radicals, with here and there an ex-
ception, possess any established system whatever.
Is it surprising that the Whigs have been driven
out of the representation of the counties? Why,
independence, or a conscientious expression of po
litical feeling in the rural districts, is a positive absur-
dity under the circumstances—a thing of rather more
rare occurrence even than that lulus nature, a black
swan. Not a renter dares hold openly any other
political sentiments than those of his landlord. What
else can be expected of him ? The business of his
life is to live ; did he exercise his franchise indepen-
dently, and, therefore, offensively, he would be turned
out of his farm at twelve menthe' notice. Not a
trader but must follow the example of the
renter, or he loses his great customers, and,
what is Worse, their influence is made to
operate so widely, that his trade is gone.
The labouring and artisan class naturally follow
in the wake of the renter and trader ; but for them
there are schools, national and private ; charities of
clothing, fuel, and otherwise ; allotments of land ;
merciful consideration at the union ; the due attain-
ment of the benefits of all which are wonderfully
smoothed by marching under the " banner of
blue," whilst Dissent, political or religious, has an
effect something like a plague-spot on • any unfor-
tunate member of the community. It is no longer
" fear God and honour the King," but, instead, " fear
the Church and obey the Tories." The submissive
receive but scanty fare it is true but then they get the
sugar plums before mentioned in lieu of the substantial ;
the contumacious, besides being half-starved, may rely
on the scourge being applied, with an unsparing band,
on every opportunity. These ruralities are not quite
Arcadian! Indeed, you would be surprised, amused,
or, rather, indignant, were you aware of all the dirty
and injurious details of petty tyranny, originating in the
new system of religious and political superintendence.
Happen what may, however, the victims suffer in
silence ; it is rarely the circumstances come before the
puhlic, for who, living within the 'whirl of the Mael-
strom of the dominant party, would choose to stem the
current of the eddy ?
I am, Sir, your very obedient Servant,

RELIGIOUS rERSECUTION IN

DENMARK.

A Puh.;;lc meeting was held at New Park-street Chapel,
SoutLiwark, on Wednesday evening, to receive from the
'Rev. J. E. Giles, of Leeds, and the Rev. IV. Dawson, of
Bradford, a report of their visit to Copenhagen on behalf
of persecuted religious professors in Denmark. The cha-
pel was completely filled with persons of both sexes, who
evinced a deep interest in the proceedings. Among the
gentlemen on the platform were the Revs. Dr. Murch,
E. Steane, J. H. Hinton, S. Green, A. Fuller, J. Davis ;
Professor Conant, of Hamilton, United States ; W. IL
Gurney, Esq., C. Burls, Esq., J. Allen, Esq., &c. The
chair was ably filled by the Rev. F. A. Cox, D.D.,LL.D.
Many of our readers are no doubt aware that of late
years several Baptist congregations have sprung up its
Denmark, and that the preachers and others have been
persecuted, fined, and imprisoned. In Copenhager,—Pas-
tor Adolph Monster, after having, for nearly four
months, and Pastor Peter Monster, for nine months, un-
dergone the hardships of imprisonment, besides the va-
rious other inconveniences which, such a situation ne-
cessarily involves, are now lying in prison, sentenced to
a fine of 60 dols. each, with costs. In Langeland, among
other instances of hardship, a poor man, named Andreas,
has been called to stiffer the loss of all his worldly goods,
together with a rigorous imprisonment on bread and
water ; and similar fines and punishments are threatened
against all Baptists who do not bring their children to
the Lutheran font. Upon information of this state of
things reaching, England, the Baptists of the West Riding
' of forkshire took the matter into their earnest consi-
deration, and eventually, in concurrence with many Mi-
esters and Christians of other denominations, deputed
Messrs. Giles and Dawson to lay before the King of
Denmark numerously signed and duly attested memorials
praying for the release of the Baptist preachers, Peter
and Adolph Monster, from prison, and from all other
legal inflictions ; and for the extension of religious
liberty to the denomination to which they belong. These,
gentlemen, having performed the task assigned thous,
have returned to England,and the present meeting was
assembled to receive an account of their mission, and to
adopt measures accordingly.
The CHAIRMAN having in a, well-turned speech stated.
the circumstances which called them together.
The Rev. W. DawsoN • came forward to propose the
first resolution, which ran as follows:—" That this meet.
inre', recognizing the great scriptural principle, that it is
the right of every human being publicly to observe the
ordinances of religion according to the dictates of his,
conscience, declares both their full approbation of the
conduct of the Revs. Peter and Adolphi Monster, and
other persons in the kingdom of Denmark, who have hold
meetings for the preaching of the gospel, and have ads-
' ministered the ordinances of Christianity ; and their high
admiration of the firmness and fortitude with ,-,,alich they
' have sustained the pains and penalties 1.0 which they
, have consequently been suljected; prekering continued
imprisonment to the sacrifice of their veriAciples, or the
1 abandonment of their duty." The Mr.,. Gentleman pro-
ceeded to observe that the present was a juncture
at which it was peculiar)-r; expedient to keep
the great principles of -'religious liberty steadily
• and constantly in view. This was not a time
for Dissenters to be inilfitferent to their principles ; this
was no time for Luke-.earmness or trimming. The Rev.
Gentleman proceed'.(' to say that he would first read the
sentence which 17. ad been passed upon Peter and Adolph
Monster, and.l'eter Ryding, to show how the case stood
in the legal forms. The sentence, which the Rev. Gen-
tleman theta read at length, set out with admitting that
the parties accused were all of unimpeachable conduct
in life, but it set forth that they had " refused obedience
to the laws of the country, lay keeping illegal religions
assemblies, administering the sacraments of the churels,
instituting several Gjendober congregations in the coun-
try, and separating themselves from the State Church."
It stated that the Court of Chancery had warned these
persons against continuing such conduct, but that, not-
withstanding, they had persevered in it, " and, by im-
mersion in water, received several proselytes into the
congregation ; and at the same time administered the
holy supper in the form adopted by the body." Having.
therefore, in spite of the repeated prohibitions and.
warnings of the Magistracy, persisted in their headloac
refractoriness against the laws of the land, they were
adjudged to suffer the fine levied above, but they had
been, by the instigation of oppressive and perscuting,
men, increased to the. above intolerant punishment.
The Rev. J. E. GmEs seconded the resolution. It
was generally known that the Established Church in
Denmark was composed of Lutheran Clergy, be.% the.
persons whom as Baptists they persecuted for differing
from Luther, differed from him in reality far Going made

of York resolved to memorialize the King of Denmark°.
and a memorial was drawn up, which in the course. of a
few hours received the signatur .of all the- Baptist
• churches in the West Riding, and similar memorials
were drawn up in London, Liserpool, and a number of
other places, not only among 'Baptists, but among almost
every other denomination, of Christians, Trinitarians,
Unitarians, and Roman Catholics, and entrusted to their
care. Lord Palmerston, with the fullest and the
readiest kindnesS, furnished them with introductions
and recommendations. Very nearly the last act of the
Noble Lord's official career was to draw up a despatch
in favour of the persecuted Baptists of C h
open agen.
Upon arriving at Copenhagen, the King, who gave
the kindest and most patient attention, ultimatelr
offered to release them, if they would promise to
leave off preaching until the law was settled ; the Bishop
condescended to no argument upon the subject, cutting
everything short by the reply, that such was the law-
When the King's offer was communicated to the prisoners
