DEVON AND CORNWALL
WRESTLING.

The man of the above counties again resumed and
concluded their play on Wednesday, at the Breck-
nock Arms Tavern, Camden• town, and the attendance
was far better than on either of the preceding days, many
gentlemen of the above counties attending to witness the
science in this old English game displayed by the native►
of the West of England.
The play during the day was extremely good, parti-
cularly that of Hayman and Hodges, Devoniana, and a
Cornishman of the name of Bowden, displaying great
tact in their play.
The principal bouts daring the afternoon came off u
follows .--

George Bowden, of Cornwall, was opposed by Henry
Hayman, a Devonshire man, and the play displayed by
both men was extremely good, but the Cornishman
threw his opponent by a cross-heave," and Hayman, in
return, " back-stepped" his antagonist, but Bowden got
much the best of it by throwing his man on his ahoulder,
thereby throwing his competitor two fair backs.
William Snell (Devon), and Hodge, of Devon, Were
the next worthy of notice, both men standing above six
feet, and noted wrestlers. They played together for a
length of time, both on the look out, but neither would
show a chance ; at length Snell caught his opponent by
the " back lock," and threw him a fair back. They
again had a long trial, but Hodges gave his back to hie
antagonist, having hurt himself in falling.
The next bout was between John Goodman, of Corn-
wall, and W. Snell, of Devon, and in this match a die.
play of the science took place on each side, both men
doing their best, but they played till " time " was called.
John Maunder, another Devoniaa, and Goodman, of
Cornwall, tried their skill for a long time, during which
several falls took place, Maunder all the time having the
advantage, but " time" was up and no back.
The next worthy of notice was a bout between George
Snell, of Devon, and John Maunder. Snell is a very
heavy man, but does not display science. Maunder
again played well, having again the best of the bout.
Snell leaving the ring, contrary to the wishes of the
umpires, and being much excited, not being able to
throw his opponent, who gave every chance of play, but
was far the superier player, and was heartily cheered
throughout this bout.
It may be here mentioned that in consequence of the
unfavourable weather on Tuesday, the men could not
play out the double and treble play yesterday, and they
agreed to divide the money according to the respective
merits of their play,which was as follows :
1. John Maunder, Devon.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.

GLOBE.—Frugality, freedom iro;
univer-
sal peace, are the three general heads on which most
stress is laid by President Polk in his Inaugural Address.
It is a shrewd remark that men generally most vaunt
themselves of the virtues, or the properties, they possess
least of. Is this the case with President's Polk's
panegyric on the Government of his country ? In
the first place, what is the Government of that
country ? According to President Polk's statement of
it, is " a confederation of independent States." Now
here is the thimblerig—we are sorry to use so trivial
an expression ; but it is the only appropriate one. In
order to make President Polk's assertions true regard-
ing the States, the pea must be under one thimble—in
order to make them true regarding the Union it must
be under the other. Imprimis, then, as regards fru-
gality and freedom from debt. These assertions, if
applied to that abstraction, the Union, may be
true. That is to say, a government, which is not
a government to most intents and purposes, does
not incur debts for purposes which it does not fulfil..
But if the Union, instead of being a
sort of
abstraction, or fictitious entity—if the President, in-
stead of being, where deeds, not words, are concerned,
on most occasions a man of straw, or, to refine the
phrase—a man of figure and representation—were, the
one, a whole, of which the States were component parts ;
the other, the executive arm, wielding the power of
that whole to assert its law—in short, if national unity
were, in any consistent sense, predicable of the Union,
President Polk's frugality and so.n
any sense which
lveacy vaunts would
be untrue. They are untrue, I
can satisfy moral beings. The head has no right
to disclaim responsibility for the members. So far
as the States have been lavish, and are indebted, the
vaunt of the Union of frugal freedom from debt is a
trick of thinitlertg. This verbal thimblerig consists in
boasting, in one breath, of the prosperity of the States,
as an attribute of the Union, and shirking in tho next,

SOUTHIT'ARK

HEARTLESS ROBBERY OF A PARENT.—DanieI Law-
rence, a young man, the son of a wheelwright, was
charged with robbing his father of six sovereigns and a
half, under the following circumstances:—
The father, an aged man, stated that by dint of hard
work he had saved up six sovereigns and a half, which
he deposited for safety at the bottom of a box, which he
kept in his bedroom ; but on Monday he discovered the
box had been forced open, and the whole of his savings
taken, which were intended to have kept him out of the
workhouse. Finding his son had left home and pro-
ceeded to Greenwich fair, when he returned from that
place it was ascertained he was the person by whom he
had been robbed, and that the money was nearly all ex-
pended in profligacy at the fair. The poor man seemed
to be very much affected while giving his evidence, and
admitted that it was not the first time he had been robbed
by his son.
Policeman 178 said that he went into a coffee-shop
that morning, near the Surrey Theatre, and observed
the prisoner with some women exhibiting money, and
throwing it about as if it was valueless. That under the
impression the money was improperly come by he took
the prisoner into custody, when he at once confessed that
the money was taken from his father, under the circum-
stances already described, the greater portion of which
he had squandered away in dissipation at the fair.
The prisoner expressed his contrition for the offence,
said that he was led astray from the paths of honesty by
bad companions, whom he should for ,ever renounce, and
that he should alter his conduct in future.
The Magistrate characterised the conduct of the pri-
soner as bad in the extreme, and that he should stand re-
manded.

LONDON, SATURDAY. OCTOBER •I, 1845.

During the last and previous week numerous aoTicul-
tural meetings have been held throughout the country,
and though there is seldom any occurrence very striking
at these meetings, or speeches of a captivating character
for the general ; eader, we cannot help admitting that
they afford the most important news of the day. A com-
plete change has taken place in the tone which used to
pervade the speeches after dinner, scarcely a word is
heard about protection or the sliding-scale, or the heavy
burdens on hand, or the selfish and treasonable Anti-
Corn-law League, COBDEN and • Co. are spoken
of with great respect, the farm labourers ex-
cite considerable interest, plans are proposed
for their comfort as well as their improve-
ment ; and, above all, the landlords and their te-
nants begin to see, and to admit the fact, that they must
look for success, not to the Legislature, or to any parti-
cular Ministry, but to their own exertions, industry, and
skill. We are inclined to think that this is the greatest
triumph of the League. The wall of separation between
the parties has been broken down, and the arguments on
both sides are listened to not only patiently, but with
respectful attention. At the meeting of the Dorchester
Agricultural Society, Mr. G. BANKES made a
speech, very unlike his usual speeches. He ad-
vocated the claims of the poor half-starved la-
bourers, and the hardworking operatives in facto-
ries, be alluded to the manufacturers in the House of
Commons ; he had a great respect for some of those
manufacturers, and he should be " very glad to see them
dancing the polka with the wives of their labourers. He
spoke without wishing to throw aspersion or ridicule
upon those individuals ; he said so seriously ; for there
was nothing he wished for more than to see a good feel-
ing between the employer and the employed, as much
amongst the agriculturists as amongst the manufactu-
rers ; and it gave him sincere pleasure to find
that such a feeling was in reality springing up.''
At sei eral other meetings similar language was used,
and we may, therefore, say that the agriculturists have
not only received a great moral lesson, but that they
have learned it with good effect. The battle henceforth
in
the Legislature must partake of the same character,
and we confidently anticipate that withia a very brief
period the mist of ignorance and prejudice, as well as
the groundless fear of lowering the duty oucotrhn, will be
dispelled, and reason and common sense form
es
of those who have to make laws not for the beengeufiitdof
one class but the whole community. At Liverpool Lord
STANLEY chewed that his mind, too, bad undergone a

THE NEW TARIFF.

Jose Joaquim de Herrera, General of Division and Presi-
dent of the Mexican Republic to its inhabitants greeting,
and informs them that the General Congress has sanctioned
the following decree:—

" Art. 1. The Government, within forty days of the publication
of this decree, will form a new tariff maritime and frontier, cum-
binini all the improvements which experience his shown to be ne-
cessary to conciliate the interests of the Treasury of Commerce
and Manufacture.

" Art 2. The tariff shall be formed on the following bases :

" 1. The ports already open to foreign and coasting trade
.shal
continue to be so.

" 2. The prohibition on foreign goods, the introduction of which
was not allowed at the period of the original bases, or which has
been sanctioned by the present Congress, shall continue in force.
" 3. No variation shall take place with regard to those goods
which enter free of all duty, and the rules respecting them, which
are found in the sth, 6th, and 7th articles of the tariff of the 25th
September, 1843, still continue in force.
" 4, With respect to tae duties to be levied in future; no in-
crease shall take place on the amount fixed by the said tariff of
1843, nor shall the duties be diminished below the standard of the
tariff of 1842. Nor can the time allowed for the payment of
duties be shortened ; nor the duties now payable on foreign goods
similar to those manufactured in the republic be diminished,
always with the understanding that, in the opinion of the Govern-
ment, or the Council of Ministers, the said manufactures are pro-
duced in sufficient quantity to meet the actual consumption.
"5. The payment of duties shall take place in the maritime
and inland custom-houses in Vera Cruz and Tampico, and in the
general treasury of Mexico, with the exception of such portion of
said duties as are applicable to the maintenance of the garrisons of
those places, and to the payment of the interest of the foreign and
home debt, all which dispositions shall remain exactly as they are
at present.

" 6. The new tariff shall come into effect not sooner than six
months from this date for goods coming from Europe by the
Atlantic. With regard to those arriving from the Antilles, from
Asia, and the United States, or which come from Europe by the
Pacific, a reasonable period shall hereafter be fixed.

" 7. No alteration shall be made in the law of the 19th
February last which allows one per cent. of all duties to the public
hospitals:
" Art. 3.—The tariff that may be formed according to the pre-
ceding bases shall not be altered without the concurrence of Con-
gress, which, according to its constitutional faculties, has alone the
power to do so. .
