" BtamINGHAM, Sunday Afternoon.—The inha-
bitants of this town were this morning much sur-
prised by. an assemblage of several thousand per-
sons at the time Divine service commenced in the
different Churches. I immediately went to ascer-
tain the cause, and learnt that those Radicals who
are Members of the Union Society here were go•
ing in procession to the Free Church. 1 watched
them there—they occupied nearly the whole body
of the Free Church, and a great part of the galle-
ries. The greater portion of the congregation
attending this Church consists of the lower
classes, and it has long been a subject of real
gratification to witness the numbers who attend,
and their exempkry conduct. But the impinlent
and daring intrusion of these revolutionary mis-
creants utterly prevented the usual attendance of
the prisons I have mentioned. The leader and chief
of this Society, a man of the Demerit Ragg, is at
this moment in lVarwick Gaol, for publishing
the blasphemous and seditious productions of
Catlile, who is held up by this very Society
as a martyr to the cause of Reform. What, there•
fore, is to be understood by these pet sons at-
, tending religious worship ? What but that, un-
der tire mask of possessing Christian princi-
pies, they may still further delude their wretch-
ed followers, and endeavour to convince tilos°
who may doubt that their professions are se-
rious, and their motives pure ? Such an oc-
currence as that which has taken place must
surely excite alarm ; for if the houses of
-01 Ir God are to be thus polluted, if those persons
who have been long in the habit of worshipping
spin the Sabbath are to be shot out from their
Churches by men who scoff at religion, and blas-
pheme.every thing which has been held sacred,
then indeed our religion and our laws will be in
imminent danger of total destruction. As a loyal
subject, and a firm supporter of the Constitution
of our Country, 1 have deemed it proper to send
you this statement, considering that no pains
ought to be spared to expose the views of the Ra-
dical Reformers.—P. S. It is rumoured that the
whole of the Society, consisting of 2000 persons
and upwards, will attend next Sunday.'7
