nay, he had every confidence that they would not
give their enemies any justification for calling them
cowards on the -taw hanikor ruffians on the other.—
(Cheers.) -He concluded bilhoving the resolution
he had read.-

Mr. FISHER -seconded the resolution ilCa brief
speech.
. The CILUEMAN said that several gentlemen were
desirous to address the meeting,
,but as he knew they
were all impatient to hear their worthy and approved
Representative, he recommended that the movers and
seconders of the other resolutions should content -them-
selves with barely performing that duty, without ad-
ding Many observations of their own.-7---(Hear, hear,
and great laughter.)
The resolution was then put and carried by accla-
mation.

.Mr. WEsT then' moved, and Mr. FINCH seconded,
the third resolutiOn, which was to the following ef-
feCt :—" That this meeting have no hope of remedy
in the measures hitherto pursued. We see no hope
of peace.in the poor,
,destroying factories, or the resi-
dences of the rich, because the owners give no greater
wages than the demands of class legislation leave it in
their power to give; nor do we see any.hope Of Peace
in the rich coercing the poor because they endeavour
to avoid starvation. These only tend to, aggravate
evils Which can only be remedied by the removal, of
class legislation, and therefore we recommend that a
petition founded on these resolutions be presented to
the Queen, praying that her INlajesty he graciously
pleased to convene the Parliament, and take means 0'
securing to the people such a representation as will
be in conthrmity with the prayers of the petitions
presented to the House of Commons last session, and
which petitions were signed by millions of her Ma-
jesty's loyal subjects."
The resolution having been put, several hands
were held up against it, amidst vehement cries of
" No more petition—we have had enough of that." It
was carried; however, by a majority of many thousands
to about twenty.

The next resolution, • to- the effect, that tbe.Chair-
man should sign the petition.oa.hehalf of the Meeting,
and that the Members for the l3orough should be re-
quested to present it to her Majesty, was carried
unanimously.
Mr. SAVAGE then came forward'to move a resolu-
tion; to the effect, that the thanks of the meeting be
tendered to their excellent representative, Mr. Thus
Duncombe—(Most vehement cheering)—for his in-
defatigable perseverance in the cause of popular
liberty, and his readiness -at all times to respond to
the call of his constituents.—(Cheers.) In proposing
that resolution, he must obierve. that he had nit
voted for Mr. Duncombe, but had always given his
utmost labour to secure the return of their •other
presentative.—(Some disapprobation, •an.l cries of
" Where is he now ?" followed by laughter.) But
whenever he (Mr.... Savage) had gone to apply
to Mr. Duncombe for anything likely to serve
the cause .of the people in Parliament, he found
that that gentleman was entitled. to the gratitude of
his constituents,. and he regretted that he did-not
know Mr. Duncombe's merits when he was first a
candidate for the representation of Finsbury. •
Mr. STALvnainon seconded the' resolution, Which
was carried unanimously, and amidst deafening and•
long-continued cheering from the assembled multi-
tude, m hose numbers (densely packed) at this time
were scarcely legs than nine, orperhaps ten, thousand.
Alr. T. DUNCOMBE having. come forward to ae-
knowledge the compliment, was greeted by a burst of
the most enthusiastic cheering and applause, which,
lasted several minutes. Ile was one of those (he said)
who always considered, since he had the honour to
sit in Parliament as a representative of the people,
that it was his duty first to attend to the interest of
the people in his place in Parliament—and how he
had performed that duty he was happy to be, able to
judge by the kind and flattering manner in which the
meeting had received the resolution which had just
been passed.—(Renewed cheers.) But there was an',
other duty--• Which at all times it gave him the great-
est satisfaction to perform—and never more so than
on the present. occasion—it was the duty of meeting
his constituents—he could not say now in the. "light
of day "—(Laughterit was quite dark)-but of
meeting " face to•face" those who sent him to Parlia-
ment.-7(Cheers.) He had the honour of meeting
them on this occasion, in a great and portentous
crisis of the country.—(Hear.) It was said, that
for the value of a Government and the character of
its administration,. they should look to the condition
of the people.—(Hear, hear.) If the charaeter of the
present Government was to be estimated by that test,
be would say, look to the condition of the millions.—
(Cheers.) It was certainly but a few days since—
'Only on the 12th of the present • month—when her
Majesty went down to dissolve the Parliament, and
delivered a speech, of which he would say, that of all
the speeches—of all the sentences—(Laughter and
groans)—ever put into a Sovereign's mouth, the speech
which the present Cabinet had the presumption to put
Lito the mouth of her Most Gracious Majesty the
Queen, was unrivalled for falsehood, hypocrisy, and
cruelty, in the Parliamentary • annals of this country.
—(Loud cries of " True, true," and" Shame Shame!)
Now, what had her Majesty een made to say by her
present Ministers ? The very first sentence was, that
thee" state of public business enabled her to release
the Members of Parliament from their duties, which
they bad discharged, in a manner that reflected het
greatest credit on themselves."— (Laughter) He
only wondered why the speech did not add : " and
most satisfactory to the people:"—(Renewed laugh-
ter.) He asked, in what way had the -Members/if
the House of Commons-reflected credit on themselves,
by their conduct as representativei of the people ?
(Hear, hear.) By contempt for the petitions ,of the
people—indifference to their sufferings,—and perse-
vering a relentless class legislation.—(Cheers.)
This was the way in which that assembly was
&envied- during the session; at the end of
which they. were told, . that they had nobly
and satisfactorily discharged their arduous
duties—(A laugh)—and what state of the country
had their labours brought about ?—(Hear, hear.)
How often had Ministers been warned in the House
by him and others, that what. had exactly happened
would oome to pass if they persisted in turning a deaf
ear to •the complaints of the ,suffering people ? How
often had they been told that. if they persevered in
their iniquitious and nefarious course, the social frame
of the community would be dissolved, and the peace
of the eountrypt4d not be Worth 4Shours' purchase?.
He had told them that they shouid..enforce a call
of the House, and bring the Members back to their
places, for the purpose of considering what could be
done for the starving people.—(Hear.) But some
had grouse,' some pheasants; and some partridges to
I ook to —and he reminded them that they had something
else to look to, their tenants, whom they might find
against their expectations, they could not bully in vain.
--(Cheers.) • For this admonition he had received
groans, such as generally, follow

House of Commons, but harno effect upon hirrii—

a proclamation was issued, declaring that the whIlli•
of the North of England was in a state of . insurrec-
tion,-(Hear, hear.) Why, if Parliament were sit
ting they ought to be impeached, although they felt
so secure in their venal, corrupt, and packed majority,
that. they would laugh at impeaehment.—(Hear.) He
hoped that the example of Finsbury would be followed
-all over the country. The course proposed- by the:
solutions was a most legitimate one--to address the
Queen ; and, if invariably adopted, it might succeed.
If it did not, and the winter were allowed to
come upon the manuracturing population in ':al •
the misery which threatened them, bayonets and
bludgeons might silence the complaints of suffering
for the time, but they would neither terminate the
discontent of the- people nor the .dangers of the State.
--(Cheers.) The resolutions hit the right nail on the
head, when they struck at class legislation, the thon-
tain-head of all evil which the country suffered.
Until every man of mature age had a voice in th.
legislation, there would be no protection for the in-
terests of the people, and no security for the prOperty
of the rich.—(llear, hear.) He would have grew

last night, who struck down his. man, but was as
pleased as the young squire when he bagged his

Might tell the people not to trustFeargus O'Connor—
that he was a demagogue, a hypocrite, and a rascal—
yet he would say that be believed he stood as well
with the people as any man in England—(lmmense
cheering)—and he believed his excellent friend, Mr.
Duncombe, held as high a place in their affections.—
(Loud cheers.) He (Air. Duncombe) had come be.-
fore them, and he had. heard their cheers at
his approach, and how proud must he not be
at the. forest of true English hands held up as the me-
rnori it of their approbation, which had that night been
conveyed. to him. He (Mr. O'Connor) had • wiatched
him well. He had found him holiest to the back, and
he would say that he hoped his friend would. " leaven
the whole."—(Loud cheers.) With regdrd to the
diiturbances. in the North he would' say that the
working men had nothing whatever to do with them,
neither had the Chartists ; and in proof of this
he might tell them that the Delegates from the
trades had now dissolved their sittings, with the
determination to meet again when the country was
in a fitter state to understand their motives. Now,
he knew that he was in danger, and if lie stood on a
precipice, he thanked God that their cause rested on
a sure foundation.—(Cheers.) For if every .jeader's.
head were taken off, they would spring up like
poppies' and for every five that was killed, a hundred
would be found to supply- their places.—(Cheers.)
He had,now. said his say—(Cries of" No, go on ")
and he thanked his friends for the hearing they had g iren
him. Many thought, perhaps, that he had come there

to disturb all the good that they had done ; not so—
he had come to support and, assist them, and to ad-
vise them not to adopt physical force, for they might
depend upon it that the Government wished first to
fill their gaols with prisoners, and then that every
Judge were a Jeffreys, and that the Jury were twelve
ruthless butchers.--(Cheers.) Let them adopt peace-

was a fine fellow, and that he would lend

that the same Bill which the Government had

HAMBURGH MAIL.

_ .
WIEMAR, Auo..l3.—We hear from several persons
who have come direct from St. Petersburgh, that no
accident whatever disturbed the fetes, which sur-
passed in splendour everything of the kind before
seen, celebrated. on the twenty-fifth anniversary of
their Majesties' marriage, as the mysterious hints of
many journals would lead us to believe. Petersburg,
they say, was lost in astonishment at the unparalleled
magnificence displayed on the occasion. The grandest
fete, they say, was a great tournament.'
FRANKFORT, AUG. 13.—Well informed persons of
this city, affirm that there is not a word of truth in all
the reports which have been circulated respecting
events at St. Petersburgh. PeOple here are vexed that
the Russian. papers have not made mention of the
feglivities. The public curiosity will, however, be
soon gratified, for we learn that a competent Ger-
man writer will shortly publish a circumstantial . .
de-
scription of these fetes.
ST. PETERSDURGH, ..A.m.l9.—While the King of
Prussia was here the fleet assembled in the roads of
Crofistadt, consisting of 18 ships of the line and 20 fri-
gates, together with 2 Dutch frigates and 60 smaller
vessels, which presented a very fine sight, which was
heightened by innumerable steamers and merchantmen
which at this time always fill the roads.

An Imperial ukase of the 6th of July, respecting
the building of the bridge over the Neva, declares that
it being. impossible to defray the expenses from the
ordinary resources of the
,city, his Majesty finds it
necessary to borrow the sum required from the banks
of the empire ; .for the reimbursement of this loan
Which is to be effected in 37 years, all.foreign goods
imported into St. Petersburgh shall pay, in addition
to the present duties,. 1-1 per cent. The levying of
this additional duty shall commence from the Ist of
January, 1843, and is to be extended to all articles
of inipolt which, up to the time fixed, remain in the
warehouse of the. Custom-house of St.Petersburgh.
After several weeks' uninterrupted rain, we have
had, for the last few days, h.)t and dry weather,
which is very welcome to the farmers, who can
now finish their hay making.
BERLIN,. AUG. 16.—For some weeks we have had
oppressively hot weather, which being accompanied
by a dry wind, has done much injury to the fruits of
the earth, and been the cause of the leaves of the
trees withering and fading off as in autumn. Though
our city lies so low, the springs which supplylmany
mills are already dried up, and this evil is sti 1 more
seriously felt in the neighbouring villages which are
situated on higher ground, On account of the scar-
city of water the grand review will not take place.
The garrison of Potsdam returns home to-morrow,
and a,cbange in the-weather is much wished for. -

extreme heat. To-day-at noon,Raumer's,thermome-

LIMERICK, AUG. 20.—Shortly before two o'clock
o'clock on the morning of yesterday, this city_ and
neighbourhood was visited by' one of the miist. awful
thunder-storms known for a long time.'' The tirst.:cra.sh
of the clouds was like to nothing but the instantaneous
discharge of a full park of artillery, and the lightning
Was truly terrific, and literally illumined the. streets.
We are, however, happy to state, that up to this hour
no damage has been heard of. The dread clamour of
the elements • continued in successive peals for three
hours, and was 'accompanied by a heavy ftill 'of rain.
The sultry state of the atmosphere for some days before
this, accompanied by oppressive heat, prepared us for
an explosion of the kind, but not anything equal to the
awful conflict which followed, and was calculated to
make the most nervous heart shudder. The temperature
is since cool, and there has teen a copious fall of rain.
[The Waterford, Cork, and other southern papers con-
tain similar accounts of the thunder-storm.]
THE HARVEST.— Already in a number of far.ns in
this neighbourhood the shearing is comple:ed, and mail
of the fields are now cleared, and their produce com-
mitted to the stack-yard in the finest possitile condition.
There is now no doubt whatever as to the superiOr qua-
lity of the grain, the samples which have been brought
to market being of beautiful colour and great weight.
The harvest will be a most abundant one, bet even if it •
were to turn poorly out on the barn-floor,.as many Ter-
sons were disposed to i.nticipate, the highly superior qua-
lity of the grain would more than compensate for any
trifling defalcation in bulk. So far as has yet been ;
ascertained, however, there is no reason for any appre-
hension as to quantity. On the contrary,, the yield
seems to be as ample as the quality is superior to the or- 1
dinary Seasous. „There is a great want of pastur, which,
although much tenefited by the rains which fell ten days
ago, are still bare, and by no mean's adequate to the
wants of the stock-unavoidably plaCtel upon therm The
potato and :tureip crops -notwithstanding the severe
drought, are generally looking. well --lin some instances,
indeed, the crops are excellent. —Edinburgh • Paper.
THE WINE HARVEST.-,74IIONZINGE ON .THE NAHE,
. AUG. 13.--Y_estertlay
Wine Was drunk in the.house of
M. Fuchs, made this year from the produce of his own
vineyard ;it was very excellent. In general We expect
that the vintage will be of a superior quality, for the
weather which we have had for some Weeks past has con-
tributed to the early ripening of the grape. We remem-
ber that in the remarkable year 1811, the first wine was
tried a week later, and this was considered something
very extraordinary. Frankfort, August 15.—The spe-
culators in our wine districts, expecting a very produc-
tive year, flattered themselves- that th meeting of the
Deputies of the Customs' Union at Stutgard would com-
ply with their wishes expressed in a petition, and impose
a very heavy duty on the importation of French wines.
We learn, however, that this petition has not had the
desired effect, the Deputies being resolved not to enter
upon a course that might lead to prohibition and repri-
sals, the consequences of which would he very injurious.

FIRE' AT SALISBURY.—At eight o'clock on Satur-
day evening a very alarming fire broke out in the ex-
tensive malting premises belonging to Messrs. Roe and
' CO., at Pain's:hill, in this city.
Shortly after the flames
gained a complete ascendancy of the whole building. At
•
twenttminutes past nine o' chick
the
roof of the entire
building fell in, and illuminated the whole city. At
this time great fears were entertained for the safety of
the Dolphin Inn, which adjoins the scene of the con-
flagration. At one o'clock the scene was appalling, for
at this time the burning element had ignited some back'
cellarage ; but shortly after the communication Was cut
off, and the roofs of three more houses fell in with a
dreadful crash. The progress hence was happily
stopped. Among the sufferers are Messrs. Roe and
Co.;• .the Merridew family ; Ceoper, a labourer ;
Mr. Giddons, brewer ; Mr. Kitto, clerk to collector of
excise ; Mr. Hiscocks, builder ; Mr. Coombs, cabinet-
maker; Mr. Andrews, grocer; Mr. /shush, corn-dealer;
Mr. Conway, publican ; Mr. Wheeler, book-keeper ;
Mr. Neate, and many others. It is very singular that
this is the identical spot where the wretched. ssoman
Ea: ter murdered her children on the 3d of August last.
DUNDEE.—The people of Dundee, and more par-
ticularly the authorities, have been in a very excited
state this week, owing to the fearful nature of the ac-
counts received from England and some parts of Scot-
land, and thealarming prospect of matters in our own
town. Summonses have been issued to a considerable
number of individuals,, to arpear and be sworn in al.
special constables ; and a met wig of the Commissioners
of Police was called by order of the .Provost last night ;
when they were directed to hold themselves in readi-
ness to summon out the constables at' any time to a
proper rendezvous, there to await the orders of the Ma-

THE METROPOLITAN
CHARTISTS.

At the three great foci of the Chartists on the
Middlesex side of the river, namely Paddington-
green, with Cleritetwell-green and Islington-green,.
there was but very slight demonstration of popular
.feeling during yesterday evening; owing to the strict
prohibitory regulations of the police. At the bridge
joining Westbourne-green, Paddington, the people
had collected in detached groups, and were discussing
with much apparent vehemence the conduct of the
pOlice in connection with what they (the speakers)
contended was only an exercise of the right of public
discussicrn. Large bodies of morktn_en- were engaged
upon the numerous new buildings which are about
being erected in the- neighbourhood, bit they took no
nntiee. of -the idlers
.who were lounging about. At
Islington-green up'tp nine o clock there was no sign
Of any meeting being contemplated to be held there.
A number of individuals, apparently belonging to tlit
lowest class, thronged all .the avenues leading to
Clerkenwell-green, but the regulations of the police
being to prevent them congregating in masses upon
the _green, they were compelled to move from place
to place, and as many as, poSsible were prevented
from returning. As an indication of the animus of
`'the people, we may state that in almost everyinstance
all theplacards issued by the.police Magistrates and
"OPniniassioners which were posted along the New-
road .
were defaced.

. .
THE WEATHER—FOREIGN CORN.—Of the. weather
we have only to say that it is all that can be wished, and
if it continues thus but a little longer, of which there is
every prospect, there are few districts of the coun!ry in
which the sickle will not be in operation. In Limerick
and Waterford the holders of foreign corn are paying
the duty—in the latter. indeed, all that was in bond has
been released; In our own city, too, the duty has been
paying, though not in large quantities. The quantity
entered during the week ended 6th Aug. was in round
numbers 1,380 quarters ; -week ended 13th August (Sa-
turday), 2,670 quarters. On Monday duty was paid
on 1,142 quarters.; on Tuesday, on 930 quarters.
The quantity now in warehouse is 30,000 quarters, the
duty on which (amounting, at Bs. a quarter, to 12,0001.)
will probably be paid by Saturday, or soon after.--:Cork
Paper.
CURE OF CHOLERA BY LARGE DO3Es OF CALOMEL.
—On the 10th instant, a man, who had been only a few
days in Whitecross-street prison, was taken alarmingly
ill in the night with spasmodic cholera. He wa.; attended
by Mr. Wadd, the able surgeon of the building, who ad-
ministered large doses of calomel every hour with .suc-
cess.- On the fourth day the patient was out of danger.

green workhouse in 1831. Another case occurred in
private practice immediately afterwards to Mr. Wadd
with equal success. A collapse had taken place, and

disorder, and the patient ravidly recoveriug.
