TO TILE EDITOR OF TEE SUN.

SIR,-Your Piper of Monday last contained a paragraph*
from the Bankruptcy Court, relative to the Hampshire
Telegraph, full of misrepresentations, which I should not
have noticed but for the unfounded assertion in it, " that
my misfortunes have arisen from entertaining Naval Offi•
cers." To the Offic-rs of the Navy lam highly indebted
for support from the first moment I was in business ; for
their kindness in giving me information, I am most
thankful; but to the honour of the N try, be it under-
stood, thy do not ne.d entertainments as boons for their
patronage, and I have never given them any.
I am, Sir, your humble eery int,
WM. HARRISON.
P.S.—I hope that all Journals which copied the article
in question will do me the justice to insert this.

Poverty and ignorance he looked upon as the parents of
crime, and from their eradication, he hoped to detive
every benefit for the good of society. The English Legis-
lature were greatly to blame in not having established,
long before, a national system of education. One of the last
acts of the Scottish Parliament was to ordain that a school
should be k. pt in every parish, thereby putting
instruction in the power of the poorest person through-
' out the whole country. And if there were any
truth in the genertil opinion that Scotsmen are
possessed of a higher order of moral feeling than the
English generally, they were to attribute the advantage to
greater care in the education of the one people than the
other. The organization of the National Schools in Scot-
land was also the most perfect that could be. Lest the
clergymen in the different parishes should influence the
management of the schools to serve their own purposes,
the law made the schoolmaster free from any control, and
fixed hint as firm as the clergyman himself, not remove thle
unless at the instance of the Presbytery, composed of the
laity and clergy, who were to proceed by a law process.
He had himself travelled in most parts of the world, and
lie was free to confess, he knew of no country in more
want of a system of education than England. He had
been in most countries on the Continent, in Greece,
Ecypt, and many of the most celebrated places in the
East, and could thererore speak from experience. He had
also long been a member of the Lancasterian Society's
Committee here, and he had invariably in the clergy the
most steady opponents to the diffusion of instruction,
unless the schools were given up to them, and they
were permitted to prohibit any religious communion from
attending it who would not adopt their creed.--(Shame!)
Having said this much on education generally, he
would confine the few retnaining observations which he
had to off.r strictly to the toast which he had given to
them. It was not unknown to them that, as the laws
stood, at present any publication treating of matters con-
nected with Church or State, and sold for less than Gil.
was subjected to fourpence stamp duty under a penalty of
50/. Now he should like to be told what would he the
subject of a pamphlet or newspaper which a Tory Jury
would not bring in as treating of affairs of Church or
State.—(Cheery and laughter.) Again, the printer was
differently treated from any other tradesman, for he was
under the necessity of giving security for his conduct be-
'ore he set up a type. This was a piece of gratuitous
injustice; and, like the whole of the Six Acts, would
soon be abolished.—(Cheers.) He should then propose
to them " The Liberty of the Press, so far as it protects
the Liberties of the People." Drank with three times
three, and fol owed by loud cheers.
After an evening spent in the utmost conviviality and
cordial good feeling,
Mr. Matz proposed taking his leave, which be did by
half-past ten o'clock, being loudly cheered as he departed.

CAUTION.

THE Public is earnestly warned against
numerous IMITATIONS of DR. SOLOMON'S
CORDIAL BALM OF GILEAD, put forth by several
unprincipled individuals to ensnare and deceive. The
great reputation so long enjoyed by this excellent Medicine
for the cure of Indigestion, Nervous Complaints, Declines,
and Diseases induced by excessive Indulgences, and the
great demand for it, have tempted the worthless and un-
principled to this nefarious practice, by which many in-
valids have been irreparably injured. These imitations
extend not only to the Name of this Medicine, but to the
Advertisements, Wrappers on the Bottl-s, and every dis-
tinguishing Mark except that which would involve the
Life of the Depredator, namely, the words " SAMUEL
SOLOMON, LIVERPOOL," engraved on the Govern-
ment Stamp affixed to eaoh Bottle, to imitate which is
Felony, and punishable as such. To this Distinguishing
Mark the public attention is particularly directed, without
which no " CORDIAL BALM" whatever has any claim
to the merits of Dr. Solomon's invention. _

The Genuine Mtdicine is prepared at Gilead House,
near Liverpool, and

BANK MEETING.-(THIS DAY.)

This morning a quarterly General Court of the proprie-
tors of Bank Stock was held in order to consider of a
dividend. The chair was taken at 12 o'clock precisely by
the Governor, R. M. Raikes, Esq., who was accompanied
by most of the Directors.

_
The minutes of the last Court were read by the secre-
tary and confirmed.

The Governor acquainted the Court that the Directors
bad come to the re,o'ution of recommending that a
dividend of 4/. per cent. should he declared for the half
year, ending 10th October next, and moved accordingly.
Mr. WILLIAMS said, before the question was put, he
wished to say that be bad seen a statement in one of the
Monthly Magazines respecting a sum of four millions, as
being the amount of notes now outstanding. He did not
know how such a statement could get there, and wished
to know whether it was correct.

The GOVIERNOR said the publication bad been made
before a Cm3mittee of the House of Commons, and be
believed it was correct. It contained the whole of the notes
now outstanding.

Mr. WILLIAMS had another question to put, which was,
whether any part of the dividend was taken out of the
c &pits! or annuity fund.
The GOVERNOR said that the whole of the dividend was
declared out of the interest and profits, without at all
trenching upon the Capital or Annuity Fund.
In answer to a question from another proprietor, the
Governor steted, that the valuation of the Annuity Fund,
which was put down at ten millions, had been calculated
from the amount which such annuities would bring if
thrown into the market. Also that when Government
paid to the Bank that part of the debt which was to be
reduced, it would be at the option of the proprietors
whether it should be distributed amongst them or employed
in any other way. A meeting would be called for the
purpose of deciding on the question as soon as the money
had been received.

The question of the dividend was then put, and carried
unanimously.
The Goa-zillion. gave notice that the dividend warrants
would be ready on the 11th of October.
The Court then adjourned.

LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY,

REPUBLIC DEBT.

The state of the national finances must occupy a pro-
minent place in all addresses by executive magistrates
to legislative bodies ; but probably it has never been the
goad fortune of any other people, obliged to mortgage for
a time the resources of their posterity, to hear a language
Eke that of President Jackson to the American Congress
at Washington on the 3d instant. Nearly every Govern-
ment in Europe or America has been under the necessity
in times of war or danger to anticipate its income ; but we
know of no other nation but the Americans who can
declare that their funded debt bas been entirely redeemed
—that their bonds have been cancelled without an act of
bankruptcy—and that their annual revenue is free to meet
their annual expenditure. Tie result, no less satisfactory
than honourable, should be proclaimed in the face of the
eiviliz !el world, and should be held out as a bright example
to monarchies and republics. The Americans, in 18
, years of peace, have relieved themselves from the accumu-
lated burdens of two wars, by a steady application of their
surplus revenue to redeem their incumbrances, and have
thus given the best reproof to those admirers of their re-
publican system who propose the use of a sponge for
effacing national obligations.
The success of this remarkable experiment has established
the truth of some important points, which have often
been made the subject of controversy in this country. It
has proved, when taken in conjunction with the acknow-
ledged prosperity of the American Union—first, that a
nation, though by its increasing wealth it may outgrow
the oppressive feeling of its burdens, will proceed faster in
the career of improvement if it has nn burdens at all ;
secondly, that if the money of the fundholder is returned
to him, he will find a beneficial employment for his capital,
however large the sum, in undertakings of trade and
industry; and, lastly, that by a steady adherence to the
principles of public faith and national honour, the entire
extinction of a very large debt may be accomplished, and
rendered consistent, not only with the general welfare, but
with the advantage of the state annuitants themselves; for
we have heard no complaints among the people of the
United States that they are obliged to take beck their
money which they had lent to Government. Times.

The Military President of the Ui
sees clearly enough that to levy di;
duties on Spanish vessels in Am
must be a losing game to America,
has more vessels than Spain has,
quently would pay more discrimin,
in Spanish ports than she wo't►.ld levy
vessels in her own. Those of our
who are silly enough to exclaim
reciprocity treaties, want to feel the di
duties levied upon their own vessels
can be made to understand the bene
from those treaties.

BEACONSFIELD, DEC. 27.—We noticed in
a previous paper that a wild boar, belonging to C. Shard,
Esq., Hedgerley Park, had made his escape from his
stye, and had been found and hunted in Dropmore Park,
having on that occasion shown himself very ferocious, by
killing one strong bull dog, wounding another, and setting
all his pursuers at defiance ; he is still at large, and has
been seen on the domains of Dropmore. Monday last was
appointed to have a grand hunt, - and if possible to take
him dead or alive ; in consequence there was an assem-
blage in the park about ten o'clock of all the most chival-
rous and spirited in the neighbourhood, armed with
spears, rifles, clubs, and every sort of weapon that could
be thought likely to stop their victim ; one bold man, from
Burnham, came armed with only bis constable's.staff; in
fact, bad the High
comitatus, it is thought he would not have brought to
valiant getber so many Sheriff of the county issued his posse
men to his assistance in Bucking-
hamshire. But, alas ! how great was the disappointment
the weather was most uapropitious—the rain descending

Nimrods that none of them would venture into the coverts,
but returned to their homes grievously vexed and disap-
pointed.... Windsor Express.

UNION HALL.

THE PASTRY COOK AN!) THE DANDY DOCTOR.—
Yesterday T. Rosweer, a pastry-cook, in the New
Kent-road, was charged with an assault upon a me-
dical student.

The complainant, a• fashionably-dressed young
man, went into the defendant's shop, and had not
been there long before .the defendant made some
impertinent remarks upon his dress and deportment.
•H,e remonstrated with him•; upon Which the defen-
dant said complainaht had the hydrophobia, and

bundled him out of the shop, at the same time giv-
ing him a hearty kick on one of his sides.
The defendant replied, that the complainant was
in the habit of lounging into his shop with a lighted
segar, puffing the smoke in all directions, quizzing
the young ladies who might enter the shop, and
yet never laying out a farthing of money--not even
buying a penny stale bun. He had certainly kicked
him out of the shop, but the young fellow had first
attempted to kiss the female who attended the shop.
The complainant said he saw no reason why he
should have been singled out of other young men
who lounged into the shop.
Mr. WEDGEWOOD dismissed the warrant.

ERRATUM.

We have to regret that a mistake of our printer yesterday oc-
casioned a transposition of matter in a small part of our im-
pression, which must have caused some embarrassment to
those of our readers into whose hands it has unfortunately
fallen. At the end of the twenty.sixth line of the fourth
column of the second page, the quarter column at the top of
the fifth column should be inserted. The sentence and a
half thus displaced in the fourth column should go to the
bottom of the fifth column, whilst the gap in the top of the
fifth column must be supplied by the piece now at the top
of the sixth column.

the " supporters of the land" have involved '
themselves with regard to the public, that we
have at present barely time or space to notice
the doltish obstinacy with which the monopo-
lists cling to the idea that they obtain steadi-
ness of price by restrictions on importation. The
Committee talk of the " steadiness of price which
has unquestionably prevailed" since the esta-
blishment of " the present system," but almost
in the same breath acknowledge that it has,
within the last five years, fluctuated from
765. 7d. to Ms. 3d. per quarter. A pretty
steadiness of price, truly ! And how the
fluctuation would be diminished by the oc-
currence of the contingency which Mr. JACOB
evidently contemplates as probable, namely, a
deficiency of supply which all the world could
not meet, is a mystery the Committee alone is
competent to solve. The fact is, that Earl
FITZWILLIANI, Mr. MUNDELL, and every
other man, competent by reflection and
understanding to write upon the subject, have
proved, beyond a doubt, that the least possible
amount of fluctuation is obtained by freedom of
trade, and by that alone. Indeed many, even of
the agricultural classes, have discovered to their
cost, that the Duke of WELLINGTON'S corn
law does not protect them, any more than pre-
ceding corn laws had done. We open, at hazard,
the mass of printed petitions now lying before us,
presented last session, and almost the first one that
meets our eye contains the following sentence :
" Your petitioners beg to state, that in the past
Summers of the years 1828, 1829, and 1830,
they experienced the most lamentable and
ruinous seasons, by which they suffered the loss
of all their sheep and many of their cattle,
their best grasses having been swept off
by the floods ; their corn perished in its husks,
and what was taken, by the greatest skill and
labour, fetched only ruinous prices, by reason
of the fluctuating nature of the present Corn
Laws." The petitioners are farmers of King-
ton Magna cum Nyland, in the county of
Dorset, and there can be little doubt that they
want Corn Laws which would allow them to
obtain a starvation price. The (lay for that has,
however, gone, and the next best thing that can
be done for them, as well as the public, is to pro-
duce steadiness of price, by freedom of impor-
tation.

German PaperQ, on the authority of accounts
from Belgrade and Ancona, mention that the
SULTAN'S life was not safe an instant, and that
he had applied again to the Russian Ambassa-
dor for assistance, which the French and English
Ministers had protested against.

METROPOLITAN.

There is more freedom of opinion, more bold
speaking-out on political matters in this month's
Metropolitan than in any of its predecessors.
" The Portuguese Question," adopting the
liberal side, is an honest, straight-forward diatribe,
in which the Miguelite faction are visited with
deserved animadversion. The writer well re-
marks,

"We find, not only a great, but also the most en-
li4htened, portion of the nobility on the side of Donna
Maria. In fact, an attentive observer will see that in the
present position of affairs, Don Pedro'a party is really
Portuguese and national."

" Chit-chat" is remarkable, not so much for its
sparkle or vivacity, as for the manly, liberal
spirit in which the editor deals out praise to
his periodical contemporaries. This utter freedom
from jealousy is, unfortunately, but too rare
among the literary brotherhood. " A glance at
Sicily," is just a glance, and nothing more.
" Jacob Faithful," though scarcely equal to
" Peter Simple," yet bids fair to become a
very amusing auto-biographer. Describing a
cook who happened to take kindly notice of him
when a half-starved orphan lad, he says, " She
was a good-hearted, fat woman, who melted at
a tale of woe, though the fire made no im-
pression on her." " Staffa" is a stiff, formal,
rhetorical sample of versification, just for all the
world like a Cambridge or Oxford prize poem.
It is a sort of poetic cast-iron. " Publishing
and Puffing" is a seasonable expose of (thank
God !) a nearly exploded system.
