CAUTION TO FAMILIES.—The high repu-
. tation, and consequently, great demand, for the under-
mentioned Preparations, have excited the cupidity of some
SHOP-KEEPERS, of apparent respectability, but destitute
alike of honour and talent, who, for the sake of gaining
a trifle more profit, basely attempt to impose their pernicious
compounds upon the Public as the real " MACASSAR
OIL " for the Hair, and" KALYDOR" for the Complexion;
they copy the bills and labels of the original articles, substi-
tuting either a FICTITIOUS NAME, or the word
GhNUINE" in the place of " ROWLAND'S."
To frustrate such imposition, it is necessary, on purchasing
either article, to see that the word " ROWLAND'S" is on
the wrapper, as follows, without which none are Genuine.

From time immemorial Linseed has been proverbial for its
virtues in the cure of Coughs and Colds ; but previous to the
discovery of the present Chemical Essence, it was merely sued
in the form of tea, and its benefit comparatively limited. This
Essence contains all the medicinal properties of Linseed in a
highly concentrated form, combined with other medicinal' and
herbs, producing the most certain and efficacious remedy for
Coughs which has yet been discovered.
Children's Coughs, as recent ones in Adults, will be re-
moved by a few doses of Simco's Essence of Linseed (frequently
by the first) ; old standing Chronic Coughs may require per-
severance, but they ultimately yield to its curative powers.
Asthmatic persons, who previously had not been able to lie
down in bed, have received the utmost benefit, and others suf-
fering from Influenza have been speedily cured by this valuable
medicine.

TRIAL BY JURY-ANNIVERSARY
OF THE ACQUITTAL OF liORNE TOOKE,
HARDY, TIIELWALL, AID THE PA-

TRIOTS OF 1794.
The forty-eighth anniversary of the acquittal of the
patriots of 1794, wag celebrated on Saturday by the
friends, admirers, and supporters of that palladium of
our liberties, Trial by Jury, who dined together in
honour of the-occasion in the large room at Radley's

Hotel, Bridge-street, Blackfriars.- ,
Thomas Slingsby Duncombe, Esq., M.P., took the
Chair shortly after six o'clock. The Hon. Gentleman
was loudly cheered on entering the room. Among
the steady and consistent friends ofliberty who were
present on this occasion, we recognised Colonel P.
Thompson, R. Taylor, Esq.; Major Revell, the Canon
Riego, A. Galloway, Esq. ; C. P. Thompson, Esq. ;
P. A. Taylor, Esq.; Dr. Epps, J. Coppock, Esq.;

The CHAIRMAN said that the first toast which he
should have.the honour of proposing. to them was one
which ought always-to precede every other, which
formerly had always been given as the first toast, al-
though he believed that on many occasions of late
years that custom had been departed from, yet when
they were met to celebrate a triumph on the part of
the people, they ought always to commence with the

toast of the So-vereignty of the People."—(Loud
cheers.) He believed that that custom had of late
years been 'departed from out of a meritedous but mis-
taken notic a of gallantry towards the amiable and il-
lustrious individual who now occupied the throne. He
believed that of all the Sovereigns that had ever
reigned over this country, none had ever been more
ready, both from education and inclination, to acknow-
ledge the authority by which they ruled, than Queen
Victoria. Whether the same disposition was felt by
the wretched faction who now, unfortunately, sur-
rounded her, • and who had .forced themselves into
power, as much detested by the people as unwelcome
to the Monarch, he much doubted.--(Cheers.) But
the circumstance that such a faction now surrounded

le Queen was the best reason why they should corn-

mence with drinking, and should always be prepared
to assert, " The Sovereignty of the People."—(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN next gave, "The Queen ; long may
she live, her people improve, their laws reformed, and
the privileges of the people greatly extended."

The CHAIRMAN then said, that the toast next in
succession was, " An honest Ministry—consistent
men—good measures." He was afraid that, under the
present system of representation, such a wish was the
day-dream of a political enthusiast, but if any be-
lieved that such a wish could ever be realised, no one
must think that by the toast they intended to pay the
slightest compliment, or to allude in the smallest de-
gree, to her Majesty's present Government.—(Loud
cheers and laughter.) Testing the Government by the
rule of the toast, that that Ministry was an honest one
which was composed of consistent men, and which
gave good measures, what were they ? He would
mention one instance—the gentleman that did them
the honour to preside over the Home-office.—(Cheers
and laughter.) He (Sir J. Graham) had once said
that the very men with whom he now acted were "the
materials of the worst Cabinet that this country had
ever produced," and yet they now saw this consistent
gentleman co-operating with those identical bad mrte-
rials which he had so properly described.—(Cheers
and laughter.) Su much for the consistency of the
members of the present Administration; the good or
evil of their measures was proved by. the present con-
tion of the country.—(Cheers.) Whilgt the ruined
manufacturer, the duped agriculturist, the starving ar-
tisan, were crying " Shame" upon them, they were
meeting at a handsome houseatWindsor—(Laughter)
—and proroguing the Parliament until February—
(Cries of " Shame, shame")—for he understood that
it was not intended to call Parliament together until
then. The Ministers were right, as far as their own
convenience was concerned. They had a venal
.
(majority at their back, and what cared they for the
wishes of the country ? The members of that majority
cared for nothing but the sports of the country.—
(Cheers.) He vwrily believed that the meeting of
Parliament was regulated by the partridges more'
than by the people.—(Loud cheers and laughter.)
The Parliament had been prorogued when the shoot-
ing season commenced, and it would not meet again
until the shooting season was over. If the people
complained of such conduct, they pointed to the Sep-
tennial Act, and said, "Turn us out if you can."—
(Cheers.) There was a point, however, beyond which
human patience could not go. There was a spirit
abroad in the country which would produce great
changes. People would not lie down in ditches and
die tamely. Before they could see an honest Ministry,
great changes must take place in the state of the re-
presentation of the people. There was a spirit abroad
of which the Government had not the slightest notion.
The people must rely upon themselves—must exert
themselves boldly—then, and then only, would the
wish be fulfilled which was conceived in the toast he
then had the honour of proposing—" An honest Mi-
nistry—consistent men—good measures."—(Cheers.)
The CstAinstAN shortly afterwards again rose to
propose the toast which was more immediately the
object of their meeting—" The purity of Trial by
Jury." When he saw himself surrounded by gentle-
men who half a century ago had witnessed the dis-
may, the indignation, and national sorrow, which
was excited by the exile of the Scotch patriots, Muir,
Palmer, and the others, and the exultation which the
acquittal of Horne Tooke, Hardy, and Thelwall had
caused, he could not but regret that this toast had not
proceeded from some of them. He believed that there
never had been a period of British history in which it
was more necessary for the people to stand by that
palladium of liberty than the present. To be sure,
the present Government came not so manfully forward
as William Pitt had done, to attack the liberty of the
subject, but surreptitiously and underhand, he b -
lieved, they were trying to undermine it in quite
as dangerous a manner.—(Loud cheers.) It was the
especial duty, then, of the Juries who had to try cases
of sedition—a charge totally undefined by the laws of
the country—to be on their guard, and to defend their
oppressed brethren. Persons charged with high trea-
son, it had been said, " were covered with the whole
armour of the law." So clearly had the law defined
what it was that constituted treason, while it rested
completely and entirely in the mind of some politic 1
partisan Judge, who might be selected by Government
to try the cause, to define what constituted sedition.
It rested entirely with the Judge who presided at the
trial of any unfortunate person accused of this crime,
to state what really constituted sedition. Judges had
frequently indulged in a great latitude in this respect,
and he should be glad to see an alteration in the law
on this subject.—(Cheers.) He alluded to this, in
consequence of what had recently occurred at the
trials of the Special Commission in the counties of
Staffordshire, Cheshire, and Lancashire. He knew
that there was not an individual present who had not
read the charge of one of the Learned Judges who
bad been selected by the Government for that import-
ant duty. If the account of that charge were cor-
rect—if the Special Juries who were to try the pri-
soners were to be misled, as no doubt the Grand Jury
had been by Lord Abinger at Liverpool—(Cheers)—
no man's liberty—nay, no man's life in the country—
would be safe if tried by that individual.—(Continued
cheering.) He said, therefore, that there never was a
time in which it had been more necessary to maintain
the independence of Juries.—(Cheers.) He doubted
not that many persons there had read Dean Swift's.
"History of Political Lying."—(Laughter.) The Dean
there said that the Whigs and Tories of his day were
both celebrated for lying, but which had the best of
it it was difficult to say.—(Laughter.) If he, how-
ever, had lived in these days, he would have found an
Abinger and a gentleman sitting at the Home-office,
equal to any of them.—(Cheers and laughter.) in
illustration of his opinion, he would tell them what
occurred on the evening of the day upon which the
Commission was sent into the country. In the " His-
tory of Lying" to which he bad alluded, the Dean had
styled one lie the "terrifying lie." This "terrifying
lie" the Government had studied, for on the eve of the
day of the issuing of the Commission, they had ordered
arrests to be made in different parts of the country, as
well as in London.—(Cheers.) Several persons who
were called Chartists, F. O'Connor, Daniell, and
others, were arrested, and forwhat object ? Why, to
terrify the public mind, and to impress upon the
Juries the idea that a dreadful conspiracy was hatch-
ing—that a fearful revolution was on foot.—(Cheers.)
These were charged with offences equal to those
alleged against Horne Tooke, Hardy, and Thelwall.

Enormous bail was demanded at the police-offices,
and the leading Ministerial pipers stated that the
offence with which they were (barged was something
very little short of treason. 'The Special Com-
mission went down into the country—the trials
took place--many working men were convicted,
some of them were transported, and many imprisoned,
which, under . the, present state of prison discipline,
was worse than execution, for it was a long and linger-
ing death.—(Cheers.) • Those persons who had been
simultaneously arrested in London and in different.
parts of the country, on going down to take their
trials, found that the charges brought against them
were frivolous, and on ''("lying-one-eighth, and, in some
instances, one;-tenth of' the bail originally demanded,
they were liberated.—(Cheers.) Such a system was
disgraceful to any Government ; and when those
people should be put upon their trial, theywould then
have an opportunity of seeing if these arrests had not
been made merely for the purpose of exciting terror in
the min those who would have to serve on Juries,
and to i s on them the idea that there was hatch-
ing som eat conspiracy against the property and
safety of e kingdom.—(Cheers.) If those persons
were. real guilty, it was right they should be con-
victed ; I the trusted the Juries who would have to
try them would not allow their judgments to be
warped by any. such charge as that which had been
made on a former occasion at,g,iverpool,—(Chcers.)
The time was Come when it vs most important for
them, to lop': ,to that palladium -f Itritialv. liberty;
Trial by-jiiry.— (Loud cheers.) Let them not think
that the discontent which prevailed amongst all classes
of the people arose either from the Chartists on the
one hand, or the Anti-Corn-law League on the other
—(Cheers)—but let them, as they in justice were
bound, lay the blame, the guilt, and the culpability, r.t
the door of the Home of Commons.—(Loud cheers.)
Let them attribute it to that class legislation which
has been the cause of misery to so many thousands of
the British people.—(Loud cheers.) It was for them,
it was for the British people, to put an end to this ne-
farious system ; but above all things, they were bound
not to allow the conduct of the Government, or the
charges of the Judge, - to warp or prejudice their opi-
nion, whilst they were sitting upon Juries. Many
members: of the Government would say that he now
was talking sedition. It was not sedition—(Cheers)—
he was only exercising his right as an Englishman,
to discuss public grievances in public assemblies.
To support, strengthen, and maintain that right, he
now begged to propose " The Purity of Trial by
Jury."7---(Cheers.)
Major REVELL, in proposing the next toast, said
that none but those who had lived at the period when
the transactions took place could properly appreciate
the moral courage of the Juries who had acquitted
Hardy. and the other patriots of 1794. Public feeling
was very different then from what it was.at present ;
it was now in a comparative state of repose, but in
those days, if any one in a coffee-house or public
meeting ventured to utter sentiments favourable to
the right of men, he was liable to be turned out of the
room, and if he escaped with a couple of black eyes,
he might think himself fortunate. He recollected the
pains which had been taken at that time to pack
Juries. He had heard Mr. Thelwall state in that
room that an Alderman of London had sat up all
night with the Solicitor for the Crown in order to
pack a Jury to hang the accused patriots, and it was
only because the names of the Jurymen had been
drawn out of a hat instead of taken alphabetically,
that a firm Jury had been empannelled, and they
were saved. He begged to propose " The three
Juries who in 1794 acquitted John Horne Tooke,
Thomas Hardy, and John, Thelwall, of the. charge of
High Treason."--Drank with all the honours.
Mr. COATES, in proposing the memory of the pa-
triots of 1794, said he felt proud in being thus per-
mitted to offer his homage to the memory of the illus-
trious dead who had ventured so much in the cause of
the people, and for the purpose of obtaining that which
they were all so anxious to obtain—a full, fair, and
free representation of the people in the Commons
house of Parliament. He missed many old faces
which he had been wont to see assemble round their
festive board on these anniversaries. Many of them
had gone to their last account, but he was rejoiced to
see among them still his old and valued friend—Alex-
ander Galloway.—(Loud cheers.) That gentleman
had endured much, and had suffered much for the
cause in those times—(Continued cheering)—and he
rejoiced to see him still amongst them.—
(Continued
cheering, during which Mr. Galloway was so much
affected that he shed tears.) He also rejoiced to see
so many —young men assembling there.—(Loud
cheering.) The times demanded that the young
men should show a double portion of spirit.
He had not known Horne Tooke, but he had known
Thelwall well, and had admired and profited by his
eloquence and sense. He had also been honoured with
the friendship of Hardy, a man whose firmness and
virtue would have adorned any cause.—(Cheers.) Pitt
had panted for their blood,
and could he have obtained
it, reform would have been staved off for manv.genera-
tions. But he had been disappointed; they 'had been
acquitted, and,well did he (Mr. Coates) recollect the
enthusiastic shouts with which thousands had hailed the
t uHodson Thomas
announcement of their acquittal. He begged to
propose " The immortal memory of John Horne

Colonel P. Tuoiar SON proposed
"The memory Of
Erskine, the gratuitous and able advocate of the ac-
cused patriots of 1794." If they bad on the Bench at
the present day a Judge who seemed desirous of emu-
lating the partisan Judges of bygone times, he hoped
the Bar yet possessed men who, if they had not the
-
eloquence, had yet the firmness, honour, and pa-
triotism, to follow in the footsteps of Erskine. and who

Mr. RICHARD TAYLOR proposed the "Memory of
u addig ct
the London Corresponding Society." The friends of
liberty were under great obligation to that Bi,ciety.
Its object was to obtain
i a full, free, and fair represen-
tation of the people n Parliament.—(Cheers.) It
might be said that that had been attained by the Re-
form Bill—(Cries of " No !")_the Bill, the whole
Bill, and nothing but the Bill. It was true they had
got a something called the Bill, hut it was very dif-
ferent from the whole Bill as it had been at first pro-
posed.—(Cheers.) He had no sympathy with any
Reformer who would prevent any man from having
the suffrage. The suftrage was the
inalienable right
of every man. There was another principle of the i
London Corresponding Society on which he set the
highest value—he meant Annual Parliaments.—
(Cheers.) Any body calling itself a Parliament,
which was of more than annual duration, was a mere
usurpationa'--(Cheers.) The people who lived seven
years ago had no right to tax those living at the pre-
sent day. He should have been rather surprised when
supporting the Reform Bill if any one had announced
to him that the intention of the measure was to give a
preponderance to the landed interest. That was giving
to those political power who had too much already.
Political power ought rather to be given to those who
had to protect themselves against those who already
nearly engrossed the wealth of the country.—(Cheers.)
The consequence of giving the landed interest the
preponderance had been, that they had shifted all the
burdens on other classes of the people. They had got
rid of the land-tax, the greater part of Which was paid
by occupiers of premises in towns. The consequence
of having a Landowners Parliament was,"that they had
legalised a system of plunder of all
,the rest of the
country.—(Cheers.) A Landowners Parliament was
an organised body for the plunder and oppression of
the rest of the community.—(Cheers.)
The fruits of
their rule had been to reduce one man in every 13 in
the manufacturing districts to pauperism, while in the
agricultural districts every seventh man was a pauper.
Such was the amount of destitution produced by their
rule. In France they had no destitution, but they
had also no aristocracy—no law of Primogeniture—
no entail. There the property of
.the father was di-
vided equally among his children, m accordance with
the laws of humanity, common sense, and Christianity.
They had, in consequence, nodestitute poor ; but, on
the other hand, they had no dignified aristocracy—no
such splendid ornaments to society as the Marquis of
• Hertford and Lord Frankfort--(Loud Cheers)—to
diffuse a refined taste and elevated tone of morals
among the people.—(Cheers and laughter.) There-
fore, he was afraid, that if they wished to get rid of a
great many destitute paupers, they could only do so
by losing, on the other hand, those bright ornaments of
society.—(Cheers and laughter.) Among many other
excellent, honourable, conscientious, and worthy men
who were members of the London Corresponding So-
ciety, was his excellent friend Alexander Galloway,
whom he rejoiced to see present. He proposed "The
memory of the London Corresponding Society."
The CHAIRMAN, in proposing tae toast, felt inclined
to add to it—" And the Repeal d the Law suppress-
ing the. Society."—(Loud. cheers) He believed the
Society had done much good.—(Cheers.)
The toast was then drank with three times three.
Mr. A. GALLOWAY rose, and was received with im-

mense cheering, which lasted several minutes. The
venerable Reformer was evidently deeply affected by
the demonstration of respect and enthusiasm with
which he was received. After the cheering had some-
what subsided, he spoke as follows :—I did not expect
that, in 1842, I should have to return thanks for the
London Corresponding Society. It is a proud consi-
deration
for me to see, that the men of the present
day are so alive to the merits, and so venerate the me-
mory of that Society, of which I was a member.—
(Cheers.) They were the first body of men -who
taught the people of England the value of political
freedom.—(Cheers.) They were much misrepresented,
but every body of men who desire to be useful must
expect to be misrepresented.—(Cheers.) . It was rare
to find men of sufficient nerve to stand up under poli-
tical odium. They did so,, because they took prin-
ciple for their guide, and by that they were supported.
(Cheers.) Political principles in those days were not
understood ; and we may thank that Society for teach-
ing us the valtie of political principles.—(Cheers.)
The venerable gentleman, who was evidently much
affected by the kind manner in which he was received,
eat down amidst the most vociferous cheering.
Mr. P. TAYLOR, jun., had to propose a toast, which,
however unfashionable it might have been a year ago,
had now received the sanction -of the Premier himself.
He proposed " Freedom in Trade and AgricultUral
prosperity." Sir R. Peel had acknowledged the truth
of free trade principles, but had been afraid to carry
them out.; and without sieveloping the regonrces of
the country, without opening one fresh market for
our manufactures, he had, by his interfering, alarmed
the agricultural interest as much as if he fully carried
out'free trade principles—(Checrs)—and had operated
on their fears, not to the extent of inducing the land-
lords to lower their rents, but of inducing the farmers
to turn their labourers out of employment, and add to
the number of the destitute poor.—The toast was
drank with three times three.
Mr. HODGSKIN proposed " The Memory of Marge •
rot, Gerald, Skirving, Muir, and Palmer, the victims
of an arbitrary and vindictive Scotch Court, in 1793."
Scotland was at that period in a state of much greater
ignorance than England. In Scotland there was then
no notion of political liberty. Trial by Jury was
only permitted in. civil cases; the Courts were arbi-
trary, and the Juries were entirely at the:mercy of the
Court. There was no free press at that time existing
in Scotland. It was not until 1813 that anything
werthy the name of a newspaper was established in
Edinburgh; therefore, the memory of those men should
be held in everlasting honour who, under such cir-
cumstances, had had the courage to come forward as
Muir and the Scotch patriots of 1793 had done.—
The toast was drank in solemn silence.
Dr. Errs proposed "The Liberty of the Press," and
in so doing animadverted on its licentiousness. He
more particularly censured the proprietors of that
portion of the daily press who, for the sake of lucre,
permitted the columns of their journals to be polluted
by advertisements of a disgusting and immoral ten-
dency.—The toast was drank with three times three.
Colonel P. Tuomrsost proposed " Radical Reform,
a full, fair, and free representation of the people in
Parliament, and the union of all classes of Reformers
to obtain it."—(Cheers.) He was aware of the neces-
sity of union. He saw around him Reformers of all
classes, from the moderate Whigs, the 1688 men, up
to the kind of people called Chartists.—(cheers and
laughter.) He thought lie saw some prospect of a
union of all classes of Reformers. He acknowleged
the wealth, and respectability, and power of the mode -
rate section ; he was alive to the importance of their
support; he was willing to sacrifice much for the
sake of union, but he besought them not to insist in
their going on under the leadership of the men Who,
on a former occasion upset the coach—(Cheers),—
and that not by driving into a rut WlOll,.
was: in the road, but by the coachman -biter
having actually got off the box and dug theyttit.,
for the purpose of driving into it, and so had upset
the coach.--•-(Loud cheers.) The Gallant Gentleman
theh animadverted in severe terms on the conduct of
the late Ministry. He designated the war in Aff-
ghanistan as' a more *unj nst.war than that of Russia
in Circassia, or France in Algeira, awd the war in
China as a war for upholding a felony, " "" If," con-
tinued the Gallant Colonel, " I had .had a son Who
had been so disgraced as to have taken part in any
of those unhappy campaigns, I would. put him into
quarantine before I would admit him into my house.
—(Cheers.) He should not kiss his sisters Until he
had time for the disgrace to blow off' him.--(Cheers
and laughter.) He begged of them not to suffer the
old men *again to take the lead."--(Qbeers.)—The
toast was then drank with all the honouii. .
" The Liberty of the Press," by Dr. Epps—" The
Immortal Memory of Washington, Thomas Paine,
and Franklin, and the other founders of the United
States "—" Civil and Religious Liberty all over the
world"—were drank with enthusiastic approbatiOn.
Dr. SIMPSON proposed " Daniel O'Connell, and
Justice to Ireland. He did not know any reason
why this toast had been placed in his hands, unless it
was the fact' of his being a native of Ireland. Mr.
Dunbar, the present Mayor, and lately Meinber for.
Belfast, was in the habit of boasting that lie had been
born a Protestant, and that hehad sucked in Orangeism
with his mother's milk. Like him he (Dr. S.) had
sucked in Protestantism from his mother's breast, but
thank God, it was mixed with Christian charity and
love towards his neighbour. Unlike Mr. Dunbar,
whose bigotry and hatred of Papists increased with his
years, every day's experience proved to him that there
.wasas much honesty of purpose and goodness of heart
to be found among Roman Catholics as among Pro-
testants. He therefore felt unmixed pleasure in pro-
posing the toast:
Mr. BURNAItD, in a speech deservedly complimen-
tary, proposed the " Health of the Chairman," which
was received with great applause.
The CHAIRMAN, in returning thanks, took occasion
to allude to his connexion with the borough of Hert-
ford. He had fought the cause of the people in that
borough against the Marquis of Salisbury, and when
the question of bribery had been brought before the
House of Commons last session, lie had not had the
slightest hesitation in avowing that he had spent a
large sum of money in defending the independence of
that borough against the Marquis of Salisbury. No
doubt a great portion of that money had been spent in
defending the rights of the poor voters—in finding
houses for those who had been ejected from their homes
by the arbitrary tyranny of their oppressor--(Cheers)
and advantage had been taken of that circumstance to
say that he had bribed the borough of Hertford.
Nothing could be more false.—(Loud cheers.) He
had spent a large sum of money, but it was
in defending the rights of the poor voters of the
borough of Hertford.—(Cheers.) The Marquis of
Salisbury had received his reward; he had been made
Lord-Lieutenant of the county of Middlesex, he had
also got the dirty garter stuck to his knee—(Cheers,
and laughter)—he had- also got the blue riband sus-
pended from his degraded person.—(lmmense cheer-
ing.) His (Mr. 'Duncombe's) return was the confi-
dence of the working classes.—(Loud cheers.) The
Hon. Gentleman concluded a most spirited address, by

BRIGHTON, SATURDAY.—About one o'clock this
morning, the General Steam Navigation Company's
vessel, the Albion,
Ca
ham Harbour to • proceed to Cheeseman,Ramsr left
Ramsgate,
tolieSuhorpfoe-
for
the season, her running between Brighton and Dieppe
having been concluded. On arriving off Brighton,
she had to pass a number of boats engaged in trawling;
and ,in doing so, the Albion unfortunately ran
one . down, called' " The Interest." There were
two brothers on board, named Humphries.
The Albion immediately stopped and lowered her
boat, and in a short time succeeded in rescuing one of
the fishermen, but the other was drowned. Part of
the nets have been recovered, but the vessel has
totally disappeared. The Albion dropped anchor, and
still remains off Brighton, endeavouring to recover
the boat, as they expect the unfortunate Humphries
must be in it. The melancholy occurrence has caused
a feeling of great commiseration in Brighton, both for
Humphries, who was an industrious man, and Captain
Cheesemnii, who has been 25 years on this station,
during which -time lie has always borne the character
of a most careful and humane man.
DIE LATE SIR M. OIOGIILEN.—A meeting of
attorneys was held
.in Dublin on Wednesday to con-
sider the most suitable means of expressing their regret
for the loss of the late Master of the Rolls, and their
admiration of his character. Mr. Josias Dunn, father-
of the profession, was in the chair. Several gentle
men delivered their sentiments respecting the late
1 lamented Judge, which bore the most ample testimony
to his public and private worth, and a resolution was
adopted, appointing a committee to collect subscrip-
tions, to be laid out on a statue or some other perma-
nent proof of their feelings towards him. 'Within 20

LONDON :
MONDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 7, 1842.

The meeting of the friends to Trial by Jury,
which took place on Saturday, and of which a
report appears in another part of The Sun, was
more numerously attended, we believe, than
such meetings usually have been. It was con-
ducted to the end with great harmony and equal
enthusiasm. The sentiments were of the most
liberal cast, and they found a warm welcome. To
impreEs on Jurors of the present day, by the ex-
ample of their predecessors, a determination to
stand between power and the oppressed, islikely
to be .more than ever wanted. On former occa-
sions the juries sympathised with those who were
persecuted by the Government, but they are not
so likely to sympathise with men who
commit a riot in a turn-out for wages, or
who may overstep the strict bounds of
lace in seeking an extension of the suffrage. The
Jurors will now, frequently, we believe, have to
be on their guard against their own class preju-
dices, and against their sympathies with em-
ploYers. To do justice, they will sometimes have
to conquer themselves. On this account it is
most proper to enforce on Jurors of the present
day, by the example offormerJurors, the determi,
nation to be strictly just, and always to throw a
shield over the oppressed. We rejoice much,
therefore, that a meeting, which had this for one
of its objects, was so well attended, and displayed
throughout so much honest enthusiasm.

We formerly took it onourselves to censure Mr.
MAcAuLAyfor employinghis time, when he wasa
Cabinet Minister, with amusing literature, and
not giving that support and assistance to his party
in and out of Parliament which they had a right
to expect from his great talents and the high
situation in which he was placed. No defence
was then made for him; but it was thought
proper to deny for him the authorship of the
paper which led to the charge. It may be
thought that now he is out of office no similar
objection can apply to giving himself up to ballad
p6gtry, and endeavouring, though with no great
success, to reproduce something like the original
legends which serve as the basis of the his-
tory of Rome. Snch are his employments,
but to us they appear scarcely proper for a public
man in the present state of the country.
Mr. MACAULAY is yet a Member of Parlia-
ment, and is yet hound, by representing Edin-
WO, to the service of the people.l His counsels
and conduct contributed to overturn the Whig
coach. His letter, pompously dated from Wind-
sor Castle, brought ridicule on himself and his
friends. His speeches at Edinburgh, avowing
bitter hostility to a large class of people, and ac-
cusing them of designs against property, provoked
their animosity. He made it out to his ownsatisfac-
tion that they could not receive the share of consti-
tutional power they asked withoutexposingsociety
to danger, and his language contributed!verymuch
to make the Whicm
0- unpopular. Both by what

i

he did, and n hat lie neglected to do,. the Right
Hon. Gentleman inflicted heavy blows on his
own party, and on -the welfare of .the country.
The solace he may find in studying the legends
of old Rome is no satisfaction to the people be
insulted, and to the party he deceived. His
satisfaction will not restore the national pros-
perity which the Whigs and the Tories have
so deeply wounded. If he be about to retire
from public life, it seems somewhat cowardly
not to face the dangers he has brought on, and
leave the task of surmounting them to the
courage and perseverance of others. At present
the people, suffering from a ruinous policy, have
need of aid from every quarter 'to recommend
wiser counsels to the public. The nation not
only Wants a better system, but better guides.
Suffering from one end to the other, it has a
right to demand that talents which it has res
warded with high honour and great fortune
should be exclusively devoted to its service.

gush as freely as ever, only the law will
not allow them to flow in their natural chen-
aels—requires the undivided attention of Mem-
bers of Parliament to set it to rights. This is
particularly the duty of those who have been for-
ward to refuse the people, suffering b; their le-
gislation, the means of correcting the evil. When
Parliament meets, Mr. MACAULAY will, we pre-
sume, again take his seat on the front Opposition
bench. As one of the leaders of a party, will he be
prepared to propose any great and comprehen-
sive measure of relief? If he have any such mea-
sure, he mustknow that to carry it he must carry
the public mind along with him, and he should
now be diligently working to that end. But lie
is engaged with other objects. He is digging
amongst. the ruins of. Rome. He is clothing in
poor verse the fables of antiquity. His spirit has
gone abroad, and has deserted the realities of
England for the fictions of Rome. To devote
time and attention to other objects is to exhibit
an insensibility to the public distress and the
public danger. Mr. MACAULAY, by so doing, vo-
luntarily puts off and disavows the leadership the
people have to • seine extent conferred on him.
He neglects them and their interests, and he
must not be surprised to find himself neglected
and despised in turn.

The Flanders and Dutch mail, which arrived
last night, brought the answer of the King of
HOLLAND to the address of the States. It is
little more than a piece of formality, without any
interest. The King and Queen of BELGIUM
were expected at Brussels, from Paris, on Fri-
day. The following are briet extracts:—
FLUSHING, Nov. 2.—His Majesty's frigate, the
Rhine, sailed this morning from our road for the Me-
diterranean. We learn that the voyage will occupy
four or five months, so that the vessel will return in
the spring of 1843.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 3.—The average price of wheat,
last week, was 22f. 52c. ; and that of rye 14f. sc.
Nov. 4.—The receipts at the Custom-house at Ant-
werp, during October, was 41,541,718 f. 25c.
The Mercury of Franconia affirms that the nego-
tiations commenced by Belgium with the Customs
Union, for the conclusion of a treaty of commerce,
are proceeding with great activity.
The same journal announces that the Bavarian Go-
vernment has given a large order for rails to the
establishment of Seraing.

AN °mum EATER.—Mr. Higgs held an inquest
'yesterday evening in the Red Lion, Portland-street,
l'oland-street, upon the body of John Ford, aged 48,
who died from the effects of opium. It appeared in
evidence that the deceased was a native of Ireland,
and had held rank as a petty officer in the Marine
Service, from which he was discharged with a pension
of 201. per annum. He, for the last three or four
years, took no breakfast or dinner, his only food in
the twenty-four hours, being a little tea, with half a
slice of bread; and, for fourteen years, he was in the
habit of taking three or four doses of opium daily,
sometimes taking as much as a drachm in one close.
Latterly his stomach rejected all food, and, as felt his
constitution declining, be tried to leave it off, but

THE NELSON 13fONUMENT. —On Saturday the
workmen employed in the erection of the elson
monument in Trafalgar-square, put up the last layer
of stone which forms the column of the monument,
and which has a very magnificent appearance. Their
next operations will be to erect the Corinthian capital,
on which the cupola will rest which is to fonm the
pedestal for the colossal statue of the immortal
Nelson. The capital lis to be about thirteen feet in
1 depth, and the entire remaining portion of the
structure will be about thirty-five feet in height.
The monument is not expected to be finished for six
months. In the course of the week, owing to the
extreme elevation at which the workmen stand, thgr
operations were occasionally
,impeded. by the in.
