It was well ohset ectd at the rife 'Meeting, that those Ow de-
nounced the people as irteligions, were almost the only per-
sons who absented themselves from churches, and neglected'
public worship.' The yeomanry atid lahouridg people it;
Scotland, .and we have little doubt that the observation may
be extended itt Bfigtand, were declared, wittiout....contrtictic-
tion, to be exempiary in the discharge of their reiieioos
ami rester attenders at church-, while the pews of
the (imitry weir generally empty.

The only foreiiii intelligence since'oui last, is a Flanders
Mail ;:nd*Frankfort Papers. The accounts from Turin speals
in a decisive tone .of the'SardiniatvGovernment's intention to
maintain 'a ,trict neutrality. We should doubt its ability to
do so. should the war unhappily break out. The ;mount
of Austrian troops now in Italy is stated to be 200,000, of
which hi;1,0o0 only is to march if such be the determination,
ap against Nles. sera ;;s v:i(nmes, if true, of the founda-•
lions of pti..dic tran,quiliity in.Atistro-Italy. Is it thought ne-
cessary to maintain 100,000 men, to compress the oia:s
snrrect ion which would be agitated by the war? The proto-
col of the floiigreAS has been circulated, but not vet pub-
lished on o'o.2°lunit:sit. • We some time since noticed its re-
ported contents, which were a moderately worded, denunci--
ation of changcs in Goveiiiment effected by the military
power. We have since heard that thenew Governments of
Naples, Poi tugai, and Spain, are particularly named in it,
and protested against ; and to the difficulty of deter wining on
this comprehensive and momentous question, has been as--
cribed the delay tespecting the affairs of Naples. The chief
aim ef. -o the British A:nba,ador is stated to hare been to post-
pone any determination until the views of the- King of Portu-
gal, respecting the revolution in that kingdom, should-reach
Europe. Every thing, certainly, that has recently conic out,
tends to impress the belief that Naples would be but the out-
post in an attack upon the new representative system in- the'
south Of Europe.---But freedom has a Herculean strength,
ereu in its cfadie.

Ultra•loyal addresses continue to he the Christmas amuse-
ment of the snug few• in certain parts of the country. Ottly
one county meeting in Englund, however, has been converted
as yet by the ijitras; with what saccess to their peculiar
,views it will be ai tended, the eeent will prove. The novelty
of a county ineeting• on that side of the question is extolled
by the Kinitterial hirelings in the highest terms of pane-
' gyric. t.I for Innately for their miseratsle cause, the other

town of Cheltenham was announced induced us to expect a
unanimity in heir expression of "satisfaction at the late con-
duct of IVlrnisters: but the trick was stale, and miserably
failed—some ;m visitants, with riot many more inhabitants,
signed the Athirefrs; whereas a declaration of loyalty to the

lie graciously pleased to dismiss his present advisers for mai-

when those obligations %etre issued. Of the ten figures which

All the reconnoissances, therefore, of which the- numbers
terminate with either a those figures, will. be paid off at

If there he no uttra.topilty in. the kingdom, there is cer-
tainly scut-ultra-lying. A Meeting of the Comity of Dublin
was lately held in the Coort House of Kilmainharu, when ail
Address was proposed, on which. the infra•loyal party inured
an amendment. An eye-witness declares that the amendment
was out-voted an hundredto -one; and the misleading Journal
ingeniously infers from this, that. she original Address was out
voted an hundred to one !. What we venture to call infra-
loyalty is to be nnderstoci4 with -reference to that-nice point
Which is often found to divide the two parties in a County,
Ward, or other division of the population, both of which lay
claim to the TJ!,:, or T,,,!.41. For instance, in the Ward of Far-
ringdon Without, Mr.'tione;and other Gentlemen of similar
notoiiety,, called , themselves loyal'. !.!—Nusv we humbly
presume to tack to }fume's loyalty the prefix of Infra.
Your Wins are in many cases distinguishable by their occa-
sional habitat. • Alatiiy of 'them have- visited the interior of
Nrwgate and other the King's Castles, where they have •
been press'ed to stay on account of their loyalty; such was
the case of Gale Jones, Cam liahhouse, and some otheremi-
nentludividuals nlthat class.. Others again have• found_em-
ployment for his Majesty's Attorney-General in proceeding
against them, under a mistaken notion of their propels.

are,-not awai;e that' the Dublin Gentlenoen have 'so de-
'cirted a claim to the infras;- trot •certainly they• are not
on the other side of the line ; they escaped the
stigma of Ultra-loyalty so profusely lavished on the Nubility,
Gentry, 'MagiStraey, Clergy, and 'respectable Traders in every
part of. the United Kingdom by that unerring Judge,Jhe •
Editor of 21e Times. We were told by that veracious •
writer, ationt it fortnight ago, that the Ultras of the Ward of
Faringdon Within had austained a signal defeat; that is to say
(as v-e hit,e supposed), that the signatures to the
Loyal Address were, or would he, outnumbered by those to •
the Counter Declaration (to use the writer's favourite hyper-
hole).an humfeed•to -Ane. Nuw, how stands the fact ? The
first document was left for signatures from Tuesday till Satnr- •
day, in whirls time it received „about 150, incktding most of
the inhahhants who are usually looked up to for their slo-
pes ior wealth and respectability. The Counter Declaration
had lain, v:lrets we saw it the day before :yesterday, just IS
days; and' io that time. it.had obtained•as neatly as possible
