TO THE FARMERS OF WILTS.
(From the Wiltshire Independent.)
I have read in the Wiltshire Independent, and have
heard from other quarters, such instances of gross
oppression and flagrant injustice towards agricul-
tural labourers, made use of by their employers to
compel them to sign petitions in favour of the corn-
laws,. and I feel so forcibly, not only the iniquity,
but also the fully and impolicy of such conduct, that
I cannot refrain from addressing these lines to you
on the subject.
Well-authenticated cases and. the names of parties
are in my possession, but I do not by any means
wish to expose them. It is very possible, indeed, if
these practices are persevered in, that it may become
nmessary, hereafter, to do so. At present, I will
,rely argue the matter abstractedly, and endeavour to
put before you such reasons, as I think, ought to
weigh with you to ab4ain from anything • like corn-
.
1: The-labourer-is' a fr-ee-man, and has .its good
a right to his opinion on the subject, as any one
of you. • He is, in no respect, bound -to follow
your opinions, and to act under your directions in
anything, except in matters connected with his ser-
vice. Signing a petition with reference to the corn-
law cannot in any way be so considered.
2. The labourer has an immediate and direct in-
terest in the matter. Aly belief, indeed, is, that the
repeal of the corn• laws would be as beneficial to you
as to him ; but his interest is more evident. He is a
consumer ;. you are both consumers and producers.
His interest in having what he consumes abundant
and cheap is palpable, and he knows it. Why should
he not be at liberty to express his opinion Stillmore,
why should he be called upon to express a contrary
one ?

TO BE SOLD by PRIVATE CONTRACT,
either together or in 'LOTS, by direction of the Proprietor,
the exceedingly valuable FREEHOLD ESTATES of TRENG-
WAINTON, NANSEGLOS, BOSWEDNAN, BOWARTHEN,
PU'LTEGGAN, and HENDRA, situated near PenzaSnce, in the
county of Cornwall, containing about 900 acres, lying very compact
and well together, in the most favoured and fertile part of the county.
There is a capital mansion-house at Trengwainton, encircled by
parklike grounds, with most commodious offices, stabling, Scz.; the
whole in substantial repair, and fit for the immediate occupation of
a respectable family. The mansion-house and terrace-walk com-
mand the finest views of Mounts Bay, and the ponds and streams
abound with fish, whilst the covers afford some of the best woodcock
shooting in the county. The warrens abound with rabbits, and
hounds are kept in the immediate neighbourhood.

ELIGIOUS TRUSTS and DISSENTERS'
JILL CHAPELS BILL.—The Committee associated for opposing
the above Bill have the satisfaction to announcethat on THURSDAY
and FRIDAY Evenings THREE HUNDRED and FORTY-TWO
Petitions against the Bill were presented to the House of Commons,
while only EIGHTEEN were presented In its favour. They would
still urge upon the opponents of that measure that not a moment
should be lost in preparing and sending up their parochial and congre-
gational petitions, accompanied with earnest representations, to their
Members, not to sanction an overthrow of the established law, 'ln
order to patronise and endow the promulgation of unscriptural and
dangerous errors. The examples of the Bishops of London and
Exeter having been followed by some of the most influential of the
Clergy In their respective parishes, numerous petitions are being pre-
pared, and public meetings held, with a view to the defeat of this
unjust and unprecedented measure. The friends of the Church of
England, also, are liberally coming forward to support this opposi-
tion, by contributing towards the supply of the funds necessary, it
being a cause in which they feel that no political or party interests
are involved, but the sacredness of charities, the rights of property,
and the very pillars of the orthodox faith.
The Committee continue to meet daily at Exeter Hall, and invite
general co-operation from all parts of the country, intelligence of pro-
ceedings adopted, 'introductions from country constituents to their
representatives, and any suggestions that may promote success.

3. It is your manifest interest to promote and en-
courage morality in your labourers, and especially
to discourage falsehood and lying; but when you
urge a man to put hi 3 name to the expression of an
opinion, contrary to that he really entertains, you
urge him to commit a deliberate falsehood in the
most formal manner. How can you, after this, blame
him, if on any other occasion he lies to you ?
4. I would ask what you gain by this? Nothing
but the expression of an opinion, which you know to
be insincere, and which your employers and laud•
lords, if you are candid with them, also know to be so.
5. Again, I would ask, what you lose by this ?
The respect and good opinion of your men. How can
a man respect one who, for his own purposes, urges
or compels another to tell a deliberate lie ?
6. But this is not all you lose. The men,
knowing, as they all, I believe, well know, that the
corn-laws are most injurious to them, being so called
upon, naturally suspect that you must have
some view or object detrimental to them; or, at the
rery least, that you are indifferent about their wel-
fare. I ask every farmer in Wilts, and in the South
of England, whether there exists between him and
his labourers such cordiality as could neutralise that
suspicion ; or prevent its being highly dangerous ?
But it may be said that you have a right to employ
whom you like, and to give what wages you like ; to dis-
miss those who do not agree with you about the corn-
iaws, or to give to them lower wages. True—the
right you have ; whether it be just or proper to
exercise it, is another question. And, on the other
hand, the men have a clear right to stick to their own
opinion, and if they prefer doing so to accepting the
wages of falsehood and iniquity, to take your dis-
missal. Would the boards of guardians refuse to
admit them, with their families, into the workhouses,
')ecause they had refused to sign their names to a lie ?
I throw out these things for your consideration,
and I think they are deserving your attention. I
wish to say nothing to irritate or annoy. I have
so desire to expose the names of any who have
acted, as I think, so unjustifiably. But I will do
what I can to save the labouring men from oppression
and injustice; and I care not whom I may offend, or
what offence I may give, if it is necessary to do so
for that purpose.
To conclude: Be just and fair—Do unto others as
you would that others should do to you. Keep your
opinions and act upon them, if you please ; but let
your labourers keep theirs. You probably know my
,pinion, that your landlords have no right to coerce
You; in the same way, you have no right to coerce
our labourers. Act on these principles, which are
the principles of justice and truth, and take my word
for it that you will never have cause to repent of so
doing. RADNOR.

HE BOAST OF THE LAND.

Don't wonde', goad reader ! wir take it amiss?
That we choose such a dignified subject as this;
When once yoit are told of the trade teat is done
At the wonderful Warehous of MOSES and SON,
Ircu'll readily say that a title less grand
Must ne'er be bestow'd on " the Boast of the Land."
Of all the fain'd houses in country and town,
Not one has attainkl such a matchless renown.
Our praise has been sounded by every on,'s mouth,
In the East and the West, and the North and the South.
Our tame, like a bmner, is seen to expand,
Proclaiming to thousands " the Boast of the Land."
In beautiful costumes we've" long borne the belle,"
For none can such elegant garments excel ;
In cut and in fashion, in clot. aid in make,
This clothing has beauties which few can partake;
And firm will thy excellent workmanship stand,
When garments are bought at " the Boast of the Land."
'Tis this that has given to MOSES and SON,
Successes which no other bou,es have won.
'Tis that hat gain'd them that matchless renow
Which sounds like a trumpet in country and town.
And 'tis that has gain'd them a title as grand,
As what they have chosen, " the Boast of the Land."

will not commence before t wo o'clock. Earl
Rosslyn has been indefatigable in superintending the
requisite appliances for the business department of the
meeting ; the weighing stand, with various accommoda-
tions for the jockeys and trainers, are upon a scale of
perfect completeness, and the arrangements such as to
secure regularity and useful facilities to all classes con-
nected with the sports. The press has not been for-
gotten, and due care has been taken to give its repre-
sentatives full opportunity for accurately describing the
events of each day. All who have witnessed the plans
admit that they are the most complete in the kingdom.
Gambling of every description, except as connected
with the races, tables, thimble tables, &c., will be rigidly
suppressed, and for this purpose an unusually numerous
body of the police will be in attendance. In the Grand
Stand the exclusion 4,f the play tables has left more space
for the accommodation of the fashionable frequenters of
this noble structure, and refreshment rooms, select and
otherwise, have been prepared under the direction of
Mr. Careless, whose fame as a restaurateur has long
been established, The assemblage will be the most
brilliant ever witnessed at any similar meeting in the

orders, should she see the Indus, 80, Captain Sir James Stir-

steam-vessel on Monday. The America is a crack ship, in

.MARTIAL.—A court-martial was held yesterday
'on board the San Josef, 110, now guard-ship at this
port, to try Mr. C. D. A. Newman, assistant-surgeon of her
Majesty's steam-vessel Lucifer, Commander G. A. Frazer, on
a charge of having drawn a bill upon Government without
the necessary authority, he being under stoppages at the
time. In support of the charge, Mr. Eastlake, Queen's Soli-
citor, read several letters, one from the Accountant-General,
Mr. Briggs, to Commander Frazer, stating the impropriety
of the conduct pursued by Mr. Newman, he obtaining the
sum of 46/. 15s, 6d. in advance, without the signature of his
commander, aware at the same time that he stood indebted
to the Crown in the sum of 381. 3s. Bd., and that a mark had
been made against his name, as usual when parties were
under stoppages. Letters of a similar nature were also writ-
ten to the correspondent of the Accountant-General, Mr.
Robertson, and the Clerk of the Admiralty, Mr. Strutt,
cautioning them not to accept the bill, in accordance with
article 2 in the printed sheet of instructions, but that a debt
was due to the Crown from the said Mr. Newman, which was
to be received by them in instalments of Si. per quarter, to
be deducted from his pay. After a very long examination of
the facts, the Court decided that the charges had been fully
established ; and the sentence of the Court was, that the said
Charles D. A. Newman be forthwith dismissed from her Ma-
jesty's steam-vessel Lucifer, and he was dismissed accordingly.
In Harbour—San Josef, Confiance, and Lucifer.
In Dock (repairing)—Kent, Actaeon, and Grecian.
In the Sound—Caledonia, America, and Prince Frederick
(Dutch transport).
SHEERNESS, MAY 31.—The Camperdown, 104, Captain

THE HAY HARVEST.—The hay harvest has par-
tially commenced in this neighbourhood. The crops, how-
ever, are extremely scanty, with comparatively bare stems
and deficient under-grass. The want of rain, and the long
continuance of cold winds, have occasioned a very deficient
growth in every direction, particularly upon the higher and
more exposed descriptions of soil ; and it is probable that the
price of hay will, in consequence, be considerably enhanced.
