desires and omnivorous, passions, de.peratiou anti
phienzy, were fermenting, petitions were prepare,
ed by a few; and, with no veriatioa in the topics,
and little in the arrangement or phrase, distribut-
ed to all the rallying points of discontent, for sig-
nature or formal execution ; so that, out of a
spring, limited and shallow, and contrived and
supplied by a few, comparatively, an immense
portion of these petitions took their origin, under

Country---a►►d this free Monarchy, the wonder an►i
admiration of the world, yet flourishes, unshorn
of its legitimate splendour and power, by the an-
tipathies of democracy, or by the rage of revolu-

have ever been represented, since the earlieat days
of their Constitntinn—the prescriptive character

of'that Constitution re►naiirs onsactificed, to a
character of expediency and fluctuation ; the sport

stead of the scalding trash, and first-run of the
fiery spirit of democracy, distempering and de-,
stroying the ancient, wise, and efficacious ener-
gies of our Constitution, our Legislature remains
in its natural shape, preserving to the public weal,
,he enlightened and refined extract of all the wis-
dom and virtue peculiar to British society, in its
comprehensive sense.

CONTAGIOUS FEVER IN IRELAND.

The Dublin Beating Post of Thursday last it
serfs a number of OCCOIMUS from Kilktrioy, 117,
terford, Ne‘‘lnarket-on-Fergns, Sligo, Stradbai
(Queen's County), Belfast, Dundalk, Longfot
&c. describing the shirming pr,giess of the fever •
those parts of Ireland; and adds, '"fhe contagio:
we regret to state, has at length manifested itself it
Dublin. Parish meetings are in the course of being
called. The parish of St. Mat.k have already deter-
mined to ii-,,seuthle. 'this is the day appointed,
Several eases, though not of the most malignant
nature, have shown themselves. We hope and
trust that the weather, which, Omagh still fine, is
now getting cool, will arrest its progress ; and
that the abundant harvest which, under Prod-
thence, we may promise ourselves, will restore otfr
miserable population to the blessings of health,
and comparative competenco."

NEWRY, SEPT. s.—Since the 12th of July', 183
patients have been received into the Fever Hos-Ot these, 112 have perfectly recovered....
33 are convalescent, 7 have died, and 31 remain
in the Hospital. The number of each sex visited
with this dreadful fever seems to be nearly equal.
Of the seven patients who expired in the hospital,
five only died of Typhus.
If these 183-patients had not been collected to-
gether, it is highly probable that they would have
communicated the disorder to as many more per-
sons, who, in their turn, would have infected
others, and this dreadful malady would have spread
through the country, from house to house, with
the rapidity of lightning. it is clear, therefore,
that the benefit derived by the country from the
establishment of fever hospitals, is incalculable.--
The Newry one, in particular, has been highly
useful. On an average, about one patient in tett
afflicted with typhus fever is hurried into eternity.
In our hospital, however, the deaths are, to the
whole number admitted, only as 1 to 26—so ex-
cellent is the treatment which the patients receive,
and so consummate the skill of the- medical. gen-
tlemen who gratuitously afford their attendance.
Such an institution ought to be supported by
the inhabitants of Newry, not only through MU.,
lives of patriotism and humanity, but of self-de.,
fence. This pestilence, for such it is, if perm:t-
ied to walk abroad uncontruuled, will introduc'e
disease and death into the bosoms of our fami-
lies.— (Telegraph )

DARING RUBBERY.--Monday night, about nine
o'clock, a sailor went into the shop of Mr.
Troup, silversmith, Tooley-street, Borough,
and offered several large silver Portugal ,coins
for sale ; while Mr. Troup was employed in
examining them, some one on the outside of the
shop thrust his hand through a large pane of g!ass4
and stole an eight-day striking silver gilt watch,
of an unusually large size, and of great value,
together with another silver watch, and ran away,
The sailor who was in the shop attracting the at-
tention of Troup, instantly took to his heels,
leaving the coins behind, and, with his supposed
accomplice, have hitherto escaped the vigilance
at the Police.
