PUBLIC MEETINGS.—We have heard a great deal
lately of the Three Tailors of Tooley-street, who began
their address, " We, the Public," but what is their mo-
desty compared to that of a Newspaper Editor or a
Police Sergeant, who, being alarmed at the horrible
effects of a meeting of 10,000 persons, styles his indi-
vidual apprehensions a breach of the public peace ? The
more numerous are public meetings, the greater may
be the reason for the apprehension of nervous men and
women, but the less reason is there for the public,
which the multitude constitute, being alarmed. Our
community offers to philosophic contemplation this
remarkable circumstance. The immense masses of
population which are or can be gathered to a
single point, quite overwhelm and annihilate all
sense of individual strength. The very condition,
therefore, of the community, is calculated to in-
spire individuals with a notion of nothingness and
alarm at their own self-annihilation. Now if this
kind of alarm, when it seizes hold of the Editor
of the Standard, or the Chief of the Home-office, or
any old woman, is immediately to be set up as a sign
that the public peace is endangered, and that meet-
ings of the people must be prevented, it may be
safely predicted that the internal peace of Great
Britain is at an end. The police will never be un-
employed ; alarm must be continual; the public peace,
therefore, must be constantly threatened, and rows
and riots will be endless. People should learn to
accommodate themselves to their situation, arid tole-
rate the millions, since they constitute the glory of a
State which levies and disburses 50,000,0001. as taxes.

EGHAM RACES -WEDNESDAY.

Having to contend against the rival attractions of Lee
and Eltham, the races yesterday drew only a moderate
attendance, and although productive of some extraordi-
nary fine sport, did not excite any peculiar interest. The
weather was intensely hot, and but for an abundant sup-
ply of iced champagne, and other cooling appliances, at
Nicholson's well provided marquees, would have been
intolerable. In the course of the day considerable pro-
gress was made for next year ; the Earl of Rosslyn, Sir
W. W. Wynn, and S. Ricardo, Esq., have accepted the
stewardship, and, with the assistance of Col. Challoner,
have obtained a respectable list of names to the Cup,
Surrey and Aliddiesex Stakes, Magna Charta Stakes, &c.
The following return will show that one of the races
afforded six heats, two of which were dead heats :
The Ankerwycke Stakes of 5 sous. each, with 30 added ;
winner to be sold for 1501., &c. One mile heats.

stand, when Welfare made play to the first gap ; Pun-
nakeen then took it up at an improved pace to the dis-
tance, where Welfare regained her lead and won cleverly
by half a length. A good race for second.
Sweepstakes for 5 sovs. each, with 20 added ; winner to
to be sold for 80/., &c. Heats three quarters of a

the others were won easily. Nicolas broke down in the
third, and immediately destroyed.
There are four races for this day's amusement—the
Queen's Plate, the Sunninghill Stakes, the Egham Stake
(heats), and a match.

EXCISE COURT.

CAUTION TO LICENSED VICTUALLERS.—Mr. Frederick
Bonselmain, proprietor of the Whitellartipublic-house, in the
Whitechapel-road, was complained of for selling wine without a
licence. The offence having been proved, the Court asked the
defendant what he had to say in his defence.—He replied that
he was not in the habit of retailing wine, but generally kept a
small quantity in his house for the consumption of his family.
Mr. MAYOW (to the officer)—Did you have any difficulty in
procuring the article. Officer—Not any. The defendant
immediately on my asking for it, reached down a bottle and
filled a glass, remarking as he did so, " I do not sell wines, but
I will let you have some. Defendant—This is the first time
I have offended against the Excise-laws.
The Hon. BERKELEY PAGET—lndeed. How very unfor-
tunate to be caught the first time.—( A laugh.) Defendant--
It was my first offence I assure you.
Captain MERCY—TeII that tale to some one who will believe
it. You can hardly expect that we do. Defendant—Will you
allow me to take out a license.
The Hon. BERKELEY YAGET.—We will insist on your doing
that if you sell wines, and, moreover, we now order you to
pay a penalty of 101. The honest trader must be protected.
Mr. Hail, of the Cooper's Arms, Rosemary-lane, was
charged with selling ale and spirits without a license: The
defendant's house had been duly licensed, but the license ex,
pired in October last, since which time the trade had been car-
ried on as usual. It was stated to the Ct,urt that the de-
fendant's poverty was the cause of his offending the law. He,
unfortunately, was then a prisoner in the Fleet for debt. 'I he
defendant, when he took possession of the house, paid upwards
of 7001. for good will, Sze., which sum he might as well have
thrown into the Thames, as the property was now worth
scarcely anything, in consequence of its abutting upon the
Blackwall Railway.
The Commissioners said they well knew the badness of the
times had greatly affected publie.house property, and that rail-
ways had in many instances deteriorated the value of taverns,
while they necessarily had improved others. They were Nese,
however, to enforce the law, which they would do as strictly,
but as mercifully as possible, arid hoping the defendant would
be enabled in the course of a few days to renew his license, they
would suspend their warrant to compel payment of the penalty
which was attached to the offence—namely 100/. The sum
would, perhaps, be altogether remitted if he acted upon the hint
thrown out.
Mr James Seaqer, of the Ship public-house, Fore-street,
Lambeth, and Benjamin Emery, the keeper of the Salutation,
in Barton-street, Westminster, were complained of for neglect-
ing to renew their license —The defendants were severally
fined 100/., and told that on taking out their license again they
might apply fora mitigation.

LONDON
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1842.

In 1825-1826 Lord LIVERPOOL, then at the head
of affairs, when. the country was in great dis-
tress, declared that Parliament could do nothing
to relieve that distress. Again the country is
plunged, as at that period, in distress ; and again
the Government, by the mouth of Sir ROBERT
PEEL, in proposing the new sliding scale.declares
that it has nothing to offer which can relieve the
distress of the people. In 1525-1826, it was not
clear that the distress then existing—though it
undoubtedly sprang from our Corn and Money-
laws, particularly those of 1815, 1819, and 182)--
was:immediately caused, like the present dis-
tress, by an enactment of the Logislature. But
therfi as now, the law-makers told the people, in
substance, that they must bear their misery with
patience, for the law-makers Could not help them.
Whenever there is a tax to be levied, a coer-
cive law to be passed, a punishment to be in-
flicted, a bloody
war to be waged, a multitude
of people to be sacrificed, the 'Legislature is all-
powerful; whenever the people suffer distress,
or complain of a grievance, though inflicted .by
the Legislature,
that body is as impotent to re-
lieve or redress it as a sucking babe.
The present distress is, in fact, mocked by a
proposition to' re-enact the sliding scale, the
source of our Woe. Under such circumstances
.
it is not surprising to find it generally asked
cc what will the people, what are the people to
do ?" A more important question' was never at
any time put to rational beings ; and as the
people answer it, so will be their fate for many
years to come. .
The question no longer concerns the effects of
Corn-law ; about them the dispute is at an end ;
it now concerns the validity and authority of the
law and the means to be taken to get rid of it.
A general union of the working and middle
classes, as we have elsewhere stated, will be ef-
fectual for that end. In the meantime it is
right to make the people aware that Sir ROBERT
PEEL has weakened the authority of the Corn-
law, and will help O. to get rid of it. "He has
alarmed," said the Spectator on Saturday, "an
itionptoourctahntthe l
seetai‘ovn.,,
He has restored the fainting of his followers by venturing
hearts of the Whigs, who now know him to be
less than their equal in a matter of paramount
importance. "So far from being a settlement of
the question, his measure more unsettles it than
ever." Such a testimony, borne by a Journal

Just published, No. 1. to XII., of
THE STRUG•GLE.
The chief object of this Weekly Publication is to for-
ward the Repeal of the Corn-lavis, and the promotion of Free
Trade. It discusses every point upon which the working people
are most deficient in information, and respecting which they
are most likely to be misled. For the purpose of securing a
large circulation among this class, each number is embellished
with a Wood-cut. The price charged admits of 'its being sold
in the street, or by hawkers for the low charge of a half-penny.
This publication comprises a series of new Anti-Corn-law
tracts, well adapted for the masses, and as such it is hoped that
all the Anti-Corn-law Lecturers and Associations, and friends
of Free Trade, will promote its circulation.
Printed and Sold by J. Livesey, Church-street, Preston ;
price 2s. 6d. per hundred. Sold also by Gadsby and Heywood,
Manchester. All orders will be punctually attended to.

SITTING OF FRIDAY.

M. Passy made a short speech in favOur of the Bill. I
M. Berryer then, after some preliminary remarks,
said he had no intention of demanding the sanction of
the peo-ple's sovereignty for the Bill, for he did not
admit any such authority, nor could he conceive its
action.—(Hear, hear.) He did not intend, in order
to bring some consolation to his political annoyances,
to substitute one dogma for another, and push to
excess political views contrary to his own, merely be-
cause his side had been borne down for a moment.—
(Sensation.) He did not admit the distinction, made.
the day before by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, be-
tween government and society, for the two could not
be separated. Ile believed that the constituted powers
could deliberate on every question which interested
the country ; and, therefore, he came forp4 Withoutthe slightest scruple tp record his oplmou and his
vote. He could not comprehend an hereditary right
to the Regency, for in all their history not a single
instance of the sort could b© produced. Nor could a
full and entire exercise of the Royal authority, in his
, opinion, be confided to the Regent, for at all periods

The Rhine and Moselle Gazette publishes the fol-
lowing letter, dated from the Maine, August 14
According to a communication worthy of credit,
nothing at all was known at St. Petersburgh of the
pretended conspiracies in Russia, vague reports of
which have been circulated in Europe ; but what
threw a gloom over the fetes for the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the marriage of their Imperial Majes-
ties, was the news from the theatre of war in Asia,
were the Russian armi .gas been, entirely destroyed
by the Circassians. There is not a noble family
which has not to lament tle loss of a son killed on
the field of battle. Out of respect for this general
affliction, no account of the fetes has been published.
This silence, therefore, has been dictated by motives
which everibody,must approve."

LAW AND POLICE.

An action was tried at the Devizes Assizes on Fri-
day last, in which Miss Rooke, the daughter of a
tradesman in Salisbury, aged 28, sought to recover
compensation in damages of Mr. Conway, a consider-
able merchant at Poole, aged 67, for a breach of pt.,-
mise of marriage. The defendant was a first-cousin
of the plaintiff, and a widower with a grown-up
family. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff
—damages one farthing.
Anne Baker, a respectable young woman, was
charged with having thrown a quantity of vitriol on
the dresses of two young females, by which their
shawls and silk dresses were quite damaged. The de-
fendant was ordered to pay 4/. 10s., the amount of
damage done, or in default to be imprisoned two
months.

Would soon have been destroyed, but for the new property

GUILDHALL.

IMPORTANT DECISION.— Wm. Mason, a respectable
looking lad, was brought before the Court by Police
Serjeant No. 301, at the instance of Mr. Robert
Paris, a cabinet-maker, in Peterborough-court, Fleet-
street, for disobedience as an apprentice.
Mr. Paris stated that the youth had been his ap-
prentice for three years, and boarded with his parents,
who live in the neighbourhood. The agreement was
to pay him 4s. a week the first year, and increase it
is. yearly, until the seventh year. The lad would
not act upon his orders, for yesterday he desired him
to fetch two cane chairs from a place, and he said he
did not come there to be a porter, and refused to go.
Mr, Alderman Ilumrimay—Pray, Sir, what pre-
mium did you receive with him ?
Mr. Paris.-401.

Alderman llumpnEay—Then I 'think you ought
not to demand of him to do the work of a porter•
I'll hear what the youth has to say.
The lad admitted that he did refuse, but it was
bnause he was always selected from the other ap-
prentices to go on errands ; he did not mind going
put in hill tprn.
Mr. Paris denied the correctness of this statement,
and wished to call his foreman, but he was not
allowed.

After a conference between the complainant and
the Alderman, the latter told young Mason that he
would go back with his master, and he (Alderman
IL) had no doubt. but some arrangement would be
made so as to prevent a future misunderstanding.
