considered
this subject as altogether too delicate

,uch is the desperate wickedness of the Radical

Lsw are nut able to deter theni
str from their de-
, uctive Pursuits. A Meeting of these Revolu-
ikoary `'retches, we are assured, is resolved on,
the place selected for their scene of sedition

Plcmoters cif these seditious measures took

place a fe►v nights ago, ►n Oirder to arrange the
proceedingi for this proposed assemblage of all
the vagabonds of London, including►, no doubt,
those Reformers who were so active at If
Fair, and have not yet been taken into custody.

The Stockport Magistrates have advertized two
men, who have absconded, as having been con-
cerned in the attack on BIRCH, the Constable.

The following Notice has been circulated at

Manchester :

TO THE REQUISITIONISTS

whIO SIGNED THE NOTICE FOR TILE PUBLIC MEETING ON

MONDAY NEXT.

FELLOW-CITIZENS-011 my return from Liverpool, with
the result of the important Mission, which you did me the
honour to confide into my hands, and in the faithful discharge
of my duty towards you, and the rest of my Fellow-Citizens,

I deem it necessary thus publicly to inform you, that after
taking Counsel's Opinion upon the legality of your Public
Notice, I am instructed by Mr. Ranecock, to say, " That the
intention of choosing Representatives, contrary to the exist-
ing law, tend; greatly to render the proposed Meeting se-
ditious ; under those circumstances it would be deemed justi-
fiable in the Magistrates to prevent such Meeting."
In recommending you to withdraw your Notice, and relin-
quiSh your intention of meeting your neighbours on the im-
portant subjects intended to have been discussed on Monday
nest, I deem it necessary to state to you and to the puLlic,
that in the opinion of the most enlightened friends to Li-
berty, resident in Liverpool, your Requitition is perfectly
legal, and constitutional ; they are, nevertheless, induced
to recommend this pause in your proceedings, merely
in consideration of the cruel threats of violence issued
in a paper • from the Bench of Magistrates, since the
publication of your Notice, and of the evident prepar-
ations now making to carry those threats into execu-
tion. lam acquainted with your necessities—l know the
honesty of your intentions—and the lawful means you are
desirous of pursuing ; but in a question of absolute right, you
are not prepared to defend yourselves; I therefore do not
deem it advisable, under the present circumstances, to sub-
ject the persons of yourselves or your friends, to the illegal
and unconstitutional violence which your oppressors and their
contemptible tools have prepared for the occasion.
The formidable preparations which your Tyrants have made
to 'meet you, their unarmed and suffering victims, is the
highest compliment in their power to bestow upon you ; it is
more even than you could hope to gain by the Meeting, you
Iherefore may relinquish the objectionable parts of your re-
- quisition without regret, or even the shadow of a defeat.
•Colonel Williams, a County Magistrate, had the honest
boldness, on Monday last, at the Liverpool Quarter Sessions,
to advocate your cause, and the cause of the Lancashire Re-,
formers, before his brother Magistrates; he confounded the
whole Bench, not one man being disposed to reply to the
Constitutional arguments of this faithful and sincere friend
of his Country.

I beg leave to conclude, with reminding you, and all the
Friends of Liberty and Justice, that our cause grows and
gathers strength with the plunderings of our enemies; whilst
their rapacity must not only destroy the means of their own
existence, but must ere long turn them to the destruction of

each other, •
I am, very faithfully,
Your obedient Servant,
Manchester Observer-Office, J. T. SAXTON.

4, The fact is, the publication issued from the Bench, per-
emptorily commands all persons to attend the Meeting; when
a contrary meaning uas intendrd to have been conveyed.

Yesterday morning the LORD CHANCELLOR,
Viscount SIDMOUTH, and the VICE-CHANCEL-
LOR, had audiences of the PRINCE REGENT at
Carlton-house.

About four o'clock yesterday afternoon, the
PRINCE REGENT left Carlton-house for Brighton.
His Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT dined
with the Earl and Countess of MENBOROUGH, on
Wednesday, at their house in Piccadilly.
Lord CLIFTON has taken the command of the
Cobham Yeomanry Cavalry, instead of his Noble
Fatler, the Earl of DARNLEY ; on which occa-
sion his Lordship gave an elegant public break-
fast at Cobham-hall.

We learn from Blackburn, that a man, named
ADAMSON, was apprehended immediately after
addressing seditious and inflammatory language
to a number of individuals, who were collected
together in the neighbourhoOd of Burnley. He
MS immediately conveyed before the Magistrates,
and committed to the County Gaol. Several im-
portant documents, it is said, were found in his
possession.
It is said in the City, that negociations are
now going forward between the Government of
this Country and that of Spain, for the signature
of a Convention, by which the British Commis-
sioners in Mexico.are to be permitted to trans-
mit to this country front thence specie to the
amount of ten millions of dollars, as heretofore,
in ships of war : the previous agreement which
was entered into was for 15' millions of dollars,
all of which, with the exception of 400,000 dol-
lars, have reached the Treasury. The latter
amount is to remain at Vera Cruz until the se-
cond arrangement has been completed with Spain,
when it will be put on board a British frigate,
with a larger amount,, for England. Whether it
will be necessary to obtain any further sum than
twenty-five millions. of dollars will be a matter
for future consideration. It is conjectured that
when the payments in specie, by the Bank of
England, become general, that an additional
quantity -will he required.

SECOND EDITION.

SUN-OFFICE, Two o'CLocK.

We have just heard that an Indictment is pre-
paring against Sir CHARLES WOLSELEY, Bart.,
Major CARTWRIGHT, WOOLER, EDMUNDS, (of
Birmingham) on a charge of Congpiracy, with re-
ference to the pretended Election of Sir CHARLES
WOLSELEY, as Parliamentary Representative for
the town of Birmingham. The indictment, it is
said, is to be presented to the Grand Jury at
Warwick on Monday next. It does not become

us to give any opinion at present on this measure,
but we are sincerely rejoiced that matters will be
brought to a legal issue, and the Laws properly
suppoi red, and carried into effect.
