he State of the Revenue, on Thursday night,
had the effect of causing a slight depression
from the prices of the preceding day early on
Fliday ; but when the matter came to be consi-
dered and fully understood, the Balls acquired
freab courage, and bought largely. 'The first
Transfe;.sen 4 and 5 per Cents. will be on Tues.
day next. The Dividends will be paid on the
above Stocks to the Merchants and Bankers on
Friday and Saturday next, and to the Public on
Mot3eay.

The beneficial effects of the new Acts for pre•
venting Seditious Meetings, and subduing the
spirit of Radicalism in Manchester and the neigh-
bouring places, where it was lately so alarmingly
prevalent, are already felt, as we have learned
fr

•otu a Gentleman who I►as just returned from
►e vicinity, and upon wii►►ru we can depend

for veracity, judgment, and impartiality, that the
power of the Legislature, and the firmness of Go-
vernment have powerfully operated upon the minds
of the deluded disciples of the HUNTS, the Cos.
BETTS, and the Wool, &c. Stc. and that nowt

itty are secure from the inflammatory instige—
ons of Itinerant Orators, they are likely to return

to habits of industry, particularly as all the
wealthy People in Manchester, and the surround-

ing districts, are ready to give the utmost en-
couragement to those who become sensible of the
errors which they have committed, and the liaugis
to which they may be exposed.

We have received several Letters from Cone-
spondents who have been regularly educated as
Solicitors, thanking us for having inserted, ola
Friday last, the Bill to prevent unskilful persons
from practising as Conveyancers, and expressing
their gratitude to us for having, on a former oc-
casion, first brought this subject into public no-
tier. We have tie satisfaction to say, that though
the evil had long existed, and been productive
of great injury throughout the country, in the
transfer of property, construction of wills, &c, no
attempt had been made todraw the attention Of Go-.
vernment to an evil of so much magnitude, and lead-
ing to so much ruin and wisely in private families,
till THE SUN took sip the subject, and afforded
room for the arguments of many intelligent Cor-
respondents, who forcibly urged the absolute ne-
cessity for some Legislative enactment that might
guard the regular Practitioner from the injurious

ntrusion of Etnpirics, anti protect private property

from the effects of their mischievous ignorance. The
subject, as we have often stated, is of very great
importance, and therefore, we trust, as the
provisions of a Bill for that purpose have already
been submitted to Parliament, that it will be one
of the very first subjects to which its attention
will be directed after the present recess. In the
mean time our Paper shall be open to thoseCor.
respondents who are disposed to offer such' reasons
for the necessity of the measure, as may induce the
Legislature to be speedy in adopting some effec-
tual remedy for the extinction of so great an evil

in a Mercantile Country, where property► of various

descriptions is in a constant state of transfer, but
which, by presumptnous ignorance and venality.
may be diverted from its proper channel, to the
ruin of rightful Claimants and Inheritors.
