MR. OWEN.

TO TIIE EDITOR OF THE GLASGOW CHRONICLE.

Sitt,---As the following Address his been pre-
sented by the inhabitants of New Lanark to Mr. Owen, and
some of the London Proprietors, while these Gentlemen were
lately on a visit to the Establishment, by your inserting it into
your independent paper you will much oblige, .
Sir, your most obedient Servants,
JOHN DOUGLAS.
WILLIAM FORREST.
ALEX. 111‘I VER.
. WILLIAM FORBES.

Robert Owen, William Allen, Joseph Foster, Michael
Gibbs, and Charles Walker, Esqrs.

We the undersi2,-ned i—L4bitants. at. Naar Lanark beg to 3.1.-
dress ourselves to you as part proprietors of this establishment.

Whatever appearance of very partial dissatisfaction may
have lately shewn itself, we can truly say that we believe the
measures which have been, and still continue to be adopted in
the management of this Village, have uniformly been, to the
well disposed part of the population, a source of the greatest'
satisfaction and confidence.

We believe that we speak the general sentiments of the in-
habitants, when we express to you and to the other partners
our warmest thanks for the interest you have always taken, and
which we still see you take in our happiness—an interest which
dictated those improvements in the former state of the village,
which procured to us the comforts we now enjoy ; and which
still continues to dictate, as at last night's meeting you in-
formed us, farther plans for our convenience, comfort, and

improvement.
lire trust that your exertions on behalf of our children will
not have been in vain, but that their conduct in after life will
exhibit the beneficial results anticipated from an education as
unusual, as it is superior to that generally given to children of
operative cotton-spinners, and in which various branches of
useful knowledge have been connected with the more import-
tint point of religious instruction, and that the real advance-
ment of all the inhabitants of this establishment, both old and
young, in whatevr is good and virtuous, will keep pace with
your benevolent and philanthropic exertions in promoting it.

DUEL PREVENTED.—(DubIin, Feb. 9.)—Yes-
terday morning, about eight o'clock, Mr. Goodi-
son, chief peace-officer of College-street Divisional
Police-office, dispatched a party of peace-officers.
to the neighbourhood of Bali's-bridge, with di
rections to disperse a number of persons who it
was understood were to assemble there for the
purpose of fighting dogs and hunting badgers
When the peace-officers arrived at the place,
their attention was drawn to another scene,
which more imperatively called for their inter-
ference. They perceived a party of gentlemen
in an adjoining field, some of whom were evi'
dently about to fight a duel. The officers lame:.
diately took the gentlemen whom they saw with
pistols (which were cocked) in their hands, into
custody. The principals, Thomas Spring Rice'
Esq. and Waller O'Grady, Esq., to whom the
seconds were about to hand the pistols, effected
their escape. The seconds, namely Henry Bar°ll
Robeck and James Franks, Esq. were brought to
College-street Police-office, where they were
each held to bail to keep the peace, themselves
in 5001. each, and two sureties in 2501. each.'
