KENT COUNTY MEETING.

ROCHESTER, OCT. 21.--Party . feeling runs
op thevely
strong here, and in the adjoining township
subject of the approaching Meeting on Pennenden
Heath. Great numbers will go from hence; but
the Liberals, it is thought, will be most numerous.
The extra stages kept in the town by the coach pro-
prietors are already engaged, and every other kind of
vehicle is likely to be put in requisition on the occa-
sion. Maidstone, it is thought, will be more full than
on any fornier occasion for years past. The Clergy
of this. place (for although a Cathedral town,
there are bat few of the Church Dignitaries who
reside here), are for the most part passive, and
there are no gentlemen -resident in the neighbour-
hood of sufficient weight and influence to give a
decided tone to popular opinion, or to cheek its ex-
pression. A Meeting is to take place this evening at
the Bull Inn, of the Liberal Party, for the purpose, as
tbe placard expresses it—" Of concerting measures
fOr protecting the county character froth the attacks j
made on it by the intolerant bigots who have con-
vened the Meeting for Friday next. The walls
and shop windows are covered with placards and
addresses. Among others is one from. the Kent
Brunswick Club, apprizing those who may wish to
become members that it is not necessary they should
be freeholders, as the recommendation of two mem-
bers would be sufficient. It appears by this placard
that the Club intends to have a dinner on Friday, at
the Star Inn, Maidstone; for the address concludes
by particularly requesting that those of the Nobility,
Clergy, and Freeholders of the County, who are
friendly to the principles of the Association, and in-
tend to dine with its members on the 24th instant,
will give notice of their intention to Mr. Scomts,
the landlord of the Star, on or before Wednesday.
This dinner, it is supposed, is intended to answer
two purposes—that of drawing as many of the Anti-
Catholics together as possible; and finally, in the
event of their being overpowered on the Heath,
as it is confidently asserted they will be, of
affording a snug place of retreat, where, unan-
noyed by opposition, they might express what
opinions, and carry what resolutions, they pleased.—
This piece of prudence may have been taught them
by the expeiience of the last County Meeting,
which had for its object the establishing the Corn
Laws, when the landlords were completely outvoted
and were glad to retreat to a tavern, where, with
closed doors, they passed their resolutions, the in-
dignant crowd without, meanwhile, amusing them-
selves with breaking all the windows of the inn
where they had taken refuge. The Brunswickers, it
appears, have abandoned the idea of displaying ban-
ners, at least certain of :the requisitionists among
whom are Earl Winchelsea and Sir Edward requisitionists, among
have published an advertisement, in which
they, to use their own words," take the liberty of
requesting their brother freeholderS who shall attend
on Penenden Heath, on the 24th inst., for the pur-
pose of supporting the Protestant Constitution, to
appear without any colours or badges of 'party."--
How far this advice will be followed remains to be
seen.

The following Song and Placard have just made
their appearance :

" KENT BRUNSWICK CONSTITUTIONAL CLUB.

" General Orders !-No Member will be allowed to
dine with this most Loyal, Christian, Charitable Club, on
Friday next, unles4 he appears in the uniform, and armed,
as settled by the Commander-in• Chief and General Board
of Management.
" The Uniform censists of a Black Jacket, with Orange
collar and cuffs and Black Trowsers, Blood-red Boots above
the Anees !! I A Black Htissar Cap, with a Death's-
head and cross-bones; underneath a Brass-plate, on which
is to be engraver), in words of blood, the following motto :
Delude the people with some frightful tale
Of times gone by—stir up their rancorous blood
Against their Brethren of one father-land,
And. then our gains are sure. The goodly heritage
Of places, pensions, and emoluments—all remain
For us and for our children.'

" The arms to be worn are—a bloody sword, the hilt
and handle to be wreathed with venomous serpents ; a
poisoned dagger, and a brace of bell mouthed blunder-
busses; and in order that real motives and formidable ap-
pearances may be concealed, the person of every member
must be completely enveloped in a black clerical cloak ; so
that nought but sanctity may meet the public eye.

" The Club will finish on PenendenHeatli.-
" CHELSEA, Commander-in-Chief.
" BLOODY KNEES, Adjutant-General."

BUCKINGHAM BRUNSWICK DINNER.

Yesterday evening the first dinner of the Buck-
inghamshire Constitutional Brunswick Club took
place at the County-hall, Aylesbury. The Marquis
of Chandos was in the Chair, supported by Lord
Kirkwall, General,O'Loughlin, Sir John Chetwode,
the Revs. Edward Owen, Geo. Scobell, Chet-
wode, L. Smith, Messrs. Suttom, sen. and jun.,
Grey, Morgan, Chase, Badcock, Darrell, Wyndham,
Praed, &c. It was said that above 400 tickets for
the dinner were sold.

At five o'clock the dinner was served up, and
after the cloth was removed, the usual toasts of the
King and Royal Family were given from the Chair,
accompanied with appropriate songs.
The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the next toast, la-
mented it was one which must be drank in solemn
silence. It was the memory of an illustrious indi-
vidual, who, ,when alive, was adored, and when dead,
universally, lamented. " The immortal memory of
his late Royal Highness the Duke of York."-7•Drank
in solemn silence.

The next toast from the Chair was, " The Rritish
Army."—Three times three.

General TF.RENcE O'LouGHLIN returned thanks.

The CHAIRMAN then said, that in proposing as a
toast " The Navy of England," he need hardly re-
mind them that this was the anniversary of the
battle of Trafalgar, a victory which England would
remember to the latest posterity.—(Cheers.)—
There were present, he was proud to say, two gal-
lant officers who had fought on that memorable day,
and of whom Buckinghamshire ought to be justly
proud, he meant Captains Baldwin and Badcock,
and he would, with the leave of the company, couple
their names with the toast. (Cheers.)
Captains BALDwIN and Baocti returned thanks.
The CliammiN next proposed " Protestant As-
cendancy." Four times four.
The most tumultuous applause followed the de-
livery of this toast.
The Rev. T. Fin' (Rector of Emberton, as was
said) here rose, and in a strange and rambling speech
broached the Catholic Question, the subject of
tithes, the Irish rebellion, the historical crimes of 1
Papists, imputing to them, in terms of coarse ri- 1
baldry, a desire to stub their opponeqts then to
get drunk with whiskey, and be what ;his Rev..
Parson described, " Paddy all over." "This old
Paddy," said he, "had better be quite, or we will
send him about his business." It might be allowed,
he thought, to Pocock to start his kites, and to the
steam people to make their improvements, a priori;
but Englishmen should pause before they yielded to
the new light of the-Papists. He remembered once,
when travelling in Wiltshire, that a celebrated
agriculturist, determined upon making new ar-
rangements fdr his labourers in cutting his crops,
and he stopped the usual meal hours, but he
added to their wages. The additional shilling
a-day, however, did not satisfy them, and they
required their dinner, and he at length agreed
they should have two minutes for it.—(A laugh.)—
He divided the men into two classes, which he called
chewers and bolters, and for the latter he cut the bacon
and cabbage into little bits about the size of a bolus.
Now, said he, set-to boys, as fast as you can, but
you must get town your dinner in two minutes..
This innovation upon established usage marvellously
discomposed some of the patties; the alteration, if
not a priori, was a posteriori, found unpleasant, and
the bolters found they had the worst of it. Now
there were a set of these bolters at present besetting
the State—he would not call them Papists,.for that
would be to call names, a course very much disap-
proved of; he would, however, call them bakers.—
'(Applause.)—Did he speak without reason ? Did
they not bolt a piece of bread which they called
their God? They (the Papists) bolted him, but

another might chew him.—(Loud laughter)—
" Are we," continued the Rev. Person, " to set, as
in former times, before fire. and faggots, beeauie we
do not believe in these bolters ? No, I hope we
never shall.--(Applause.)--I will give • them a
motto for their standard—
, " Believe, belio4,through thick and thin;
" Believe, believe up to your chin ;
" Believe, believe whate'er you call ;
" Believe, believe 'tis nothing at all."
'Quitting this topic for a moment, and adverting to
their Representative (Lord Ntigent), all he wished,
to say was, that they ought to have a wise and good
man. (Heer, hear.) They (night not to have any
of the sect of bolters. (Applause.) The Rev.
Gentle Man then referred to Lord Nugent's pamph-
let, and combated (as he said) its arguments. Lord
Nugent had asked, what had political rights to do
with speculative opinions. Suppose he employed
an agent in the management of his property, there
was the security of that agent's interest for his good,
behaviour, as well as the terror of the gallows for his.
misdeeds; but what security was there for these
Papists? Would it not be absurd to give them the
power by the centre-bit to do mischief? Oh, but
only a few would get high► station, and what harm
could they 'do Would not a spark kindle a flame,
and burn the whole house ? (Applause.) There
would be' the hundred Catholic members, and say
fifty of the Dissenters, thus giving 150 who would
naturally look very greedily to have a slice from the
parsons—that was what they wanted. But Eng-
lishmen would not yield their rights in this easy
way—they would fight pro aris et pro focis. (Hear,
hear.) In this state of things they ought to look
sharp after their Representatives. (Applause.) The
Rev. Gentleman then proceeded to eulogize his
own independence, and stated he had, proof of some
bribery by a person in the interest of the Marquis of
Tavistock. - In concluiion he said that his country
was always against Popery—they ought always to
watch the Pope and his intruders. He proposed the
health of " the Marquis of ChandOs," which was
drunk with great applause.
The Marquis of CHANDOS, in' acknowledging this
compliment, begged to assure the meeting that every
private feeling which could agitate the heart of man
in social life, would have driven him to spend the
rest of his days in 'a cottage sooner than appear as
he had done in these Ulises, were it not that,. re-
presenting so great a county, he dared not keep
back his sentiments when the honour of the Crown
and the stability of the Constitution called forth
the energies of public opinion in this country.=
(Cheers.) The hour of danger had come, and
never should he be found to shrink from it when
the country demanded his co-operation. He had
not wantonly pressed himself forward ; he had re-
mained in the back-ground to. give way to others of
more influence than himself; but the example was
not set by those who ought to have givyn it,—he
had no ether alternative, therefore, than to come
forward as he had done. He - lamented very
poignantly that one to whom he had been affee-
tionately.and dearly attached, should have, in violent
language, charged the President and members of the
'Brunswick Club with belonging to a faction; whose
object led to the introduction of civil war in thiS
country.—(Cheers.)—He 'deplored such an unjust
stigma upon their principles and pursuits, but would
dwell no longer upon it. He deprecated, indeed,
that dear and kindly feelings should be severed by
such aspersions, and lie hoped the person using them
would hereafter do him-and them the credit of be-
lieving that they meant well, and had acted con-
sistently.—( Hear.)
• The CHAIRMAN, in introducing the next toast of
" Prosperity to the Buckinghamshire Brunswick
Club," begged a few minutes' attention, while he
stated the real objects which they had in view. It
was his duty to state the circumstances of their for-
mation. For many years the Catholic question had
been agitated among them, and every year they
were told that unless Catholic emancipation were
granted, Ireland would remain disorganised. He
knew pretty well the feelings of mankind, and he had
closely watched the progress of the Catholic ques-
tion itself. The people of this country were happy
in having had a Constitution handed down to them,
Which both the King and his functionaries were
sworn to maintain.—(Cheers.)--He lamented that
men's passions had led them in Ireland to urge on
large bodies of the people to arm and threaten for the
enforcement of what they called their rights. He
knew also that Ireland was now, and had been, in a
state of great excitement. The effect, however, had
been, that these violent proceedings had at length
aroused the people of England and compelled them
to rally round their King and Constitution. (Hear.)
It was with this feeling, and this alone, that the
'Brunswick Clubs had been constituted.----(Hear.)—
These clubs warred not against the opinions or the
religion of any man. Every man ought to bes per-
mitted to worship God in his own way ; but when
the question was, not that they should grant religi-
ous liberty, but political power, and that to a sect
who, when they had exercised such power, had used
it for the destruction, not the preservation, of the
Constitution; they it behoved them to pause, and
remember the necessity imposed on their ancestors
of resisting similar encroachments. The religion of
the Catholics was the same, though he knew there
was a difference in the individuals. In that religion,
however, there was danger. (Hear, hear.) To
protect the guards of the Constitution against that
danger they had rallied--to support the King in his
coronation oath, and his Majesty's Protestant Mini-
sters in the defence of the rights of their country. For
these purposes were these clubs formed; and not, as
had been said, to bring civil war into this country.
Had the Members of the Brunswick Clubs threa-
tened the King, his Ministers, and the Parliament, as
the Catholic Association had done, then, indeed,
would they deserve censure ; but they had done no
such thing. (No, no.) How long had not the
Catholic Parliament been suffered to sit in Dublin to
tax the people at their pleasure, and then stimulate
them to acts of insubordination and rebellion. This
mine was sprung in Ireland, but they, had counter-
mined it in England. The Protestants here had
rallied to save the state. He might have prospects
of many acres of land in the sister kingdom ; but,
there and here, he would sacrifice all such prospects,
sooner than abandon the Constitution of this free
country. (Cheers.) These clubs were spreading
far and near ; he begged to say, they had nothing in
common with the Orangemen of Ireland. (Hear,
hear.) They had congregated in a social way, to
unite their opinions, to show the Government that
Englishmen were not suffering the apathy with'
which they were charged upon this most vital of all
questions,—that as Protestants they were prepared
to struggle for all they held dear,—that they
would never surrender their rights, but preserve them
for their children's children. (Cheers.) He Would
not dismiss from his mind the recollection of the
abuse which had been poured upon them; and merely
say that 1,200 were already enrolled in the Bucking-
hamshire Brunswick club. In acting thus together,.
he hoped they would not give any other class of their
fellow subjects just ground of complaint; but. in
observing this temperance, they must not yield, one.
inch of the soil for which their ancestors had bled.
(Cries of " No.") In Ireland their motto was " No
surrender." He would repeat, they ought not to
surrender one atom to the Catholics, who must be
taught to obey the laws, to value the blessings of that
Constitution, which, if they could succeed in pulling
down, would crush them as well as the rest of the
community under its ruins. " I call upon you all,"
said the Marquis in conelusiOn, " to join me in the
celebrated answer of the Barons, when the laws of
England were attacked—' Nolumus leges Angliee
mutari.' " (Cheers.) .
On the toast of " Church and King" being drank,
the Rev. Dr. SCOBELL returned thanks; he spoke
in favour of toleration, but depounced the Catholics.

INCANTATION,

FROM THE NEW TRAGEDY OF "THE BRUNSWICKERS."

Scene—Penenden Plain. In the middle a raldr,n boiling.
Thunder. Enter thre.i Ilrunswirke, s.
1 Bauns.—Thrice hulk scribbling K—nyon
scrawl'd.
2 Bauxs.—Once bath fool N—we—stlu bawl'd.
3 Banws.—B—xl—y snores :—tis time, tis tune.
• I Bansts.--4tound about the caldron go ;
In the pois'nous nonsense throw.
Bigot spite, that long hath grown,
Like a toad within a stone, •
Sweltering in the heart of Sc—tt,
Boil we in the Brunswick pot.
ALL—Dribble, dribble, nonsense, dribble,
Eld—n, talk, and, K—nyon, scribble.
2 Bauns.—Slaver from N—we—stle's quill
In the noisome mess distil,
Brimming high our Brunswick broth
Both with venom and with froth.
Mix the brains (though apt to hash ill,
Being scant) of Lord M—nte—steel
With that ropy stuff which Ch—nd—s
Drivels as no other man does.
Catch (i.e. if catch you can)
One idea, spiel and span,
From my Lord of S—l—sb—ty,—
One idea, though it be •
Smaller than the " happy flea," .
Which his sire, in sonnet terse,
Wedded to immortal verse.*
Though to rob the son is sin,
Put his one idea in,
And, to keep it company,
Let that conyrer, W—nch—ls—a,
Drop but half another there,
If he hath so much to spare.
Dreams of "murders and of arsons,
Hated in heads of Irish parsons,
Bring from every hole and corner,
Where ferocious priests, like
Purely for religious good,
Cry. aloud for Papists' blood,—
Blood for W—lls and such old women
At their ease to wade and swim in.
ALL—Dribble, dribble, nonsense, dribble,
B—xley, talk, and, K—nyon, scribble.
3 BRUNS.-Now the charm begins to brew ;
sisters, sisters, add thereto
Scraps of L—thbr--dge's old speeches, •
Mix'd with leather from his breeches.
Rinsings of old B—xl—y's brains,
Thicken'd (if you'll take the pains)
With that pulp which rags create,
In their middle nyrnplut state,
Ere, like insects frail and sunny, ,
Forth they wing abroad, as money.
There—the hell•broth we've enchanted—
Now but one thing more is wanted.
Squeeze o'er all that Orange juice
-- keeps cork'd for use,
Whie/i, to work the better spell, is
Colour'd deep with blood of —,
Blood, of powers far more various
Ev'n than that of Januarius,
Since, so great a charm hangs o'er it,
England's parsons bow before it !
ALL—Dribble, dribble, nonsense, dribble,
B—xl—y, talk, and, K—nyon, scribble.
2 BRuNs.—Cool it now with —'s blood,
So the charm is firm and good. [Exeunt.
