half past four o'clock.

Wheat, it will be seen, has somewhat declined since our last report.
During the early part of the week business was dull, and •it was only
during the but few days that any large purchases for exportation were
made. Still there is a good deal unsold, and for the moment little de-
mand.

Rye continues in great demand, and large sales have been effected
Our supplies from the interior as well se by sea, have been large, but
immediately o► their arrival they are bought up either by speculators or

The supply of Barley, though small, appears equal to the demand.
To Oats the same remark will apply.
The following table shows the quantity of grain imported and ex.
ported during the preceding week, as also the quantity supposed to re-
main on hand for sale :

SIR PHILIP FRANCIS.

Extract from a letter dated Dec. 19. 1830 :—" Do not wonder at my
inflicting a letter on you once a year or so, for though no one knew Sir
Phi'ip thoroughly but myself, you next best could judge by the embers
what the full blaze has been ; talking of blasts, these words of his, often
repeated, still sound in my ear.
•If they (the Tories) do not change their measures—if the mur-
murs of the people are not attended to, and they will drive them to right
themselves by seers,: fires--and when a people take that engine in hand,
what remedy ? What will these triumphant politicians do then ?'
•• 11'ould to licaevn he had lived to see his firm conviction realized !
prollubly the preset' t Government might have remembered that they have
all been his scholars, and might have benefitted more by his wisdom and
prescience had he been done justice to, and the opinion and confidence
of mankind regarding him had been what he deserved. But Whig me.
rit was suffocated under the three last Bruniwicks--‘ achieve has now
caste o'er the spirit of the relat tfremii—and the Whip will probably
have the pleasure of corning in, during their Administration. for all the
agreeable results of the system of Messrs. Pitt and Co. and their heirs
and administrators—the Percival'', Castlereagh'', he. The nation seems
coming to a crisis, long foretold, and never believed. When I heard of
the French business, I said the grand secret is at last come out; or, in
more elegant phrase, the eat is out of the bay!"

LITERATURR.

History of the KENNEDIES, from an original MS. with Notes, ¢e.
Gy HoRICRT PITCAIRN. V. S. dre. Edinburgh, Tait, Rt. 4to.
If this work was interesting to the numerous and powerful family of
Kennedy alone, and their eonnections,we should have passed it by with.
out notice, as we are compelled to do many works of considerable merit.
But the history of one great family, in its principal features, Is the his-
tory of the whole of the great families of Scotland. And truly a more
lively picture of our barbarous ancestors than this account of the Kenne.
dies could not be desired, and as such, we venture to recommend the
book to the notice of the public.—The history, being confined to re.
markable occurrences, is as amusing as a well written collection of
stories ; and the learned editor's Notes and Illustrations are full of
instructive and entertaining matter. We wish he had substituted the
modern spelling for that of the MS. ; for the old spelling presents such
difficulties to all but antiquaries as greatly to diminish the pleasure of
reading. So careful and learned an editor as Mr. Pitcairn might safely
be trusted with the liberty of modernising the autography, retaining
scrupulously the old word.
As a specimen of this curious old history, we give the following
extract from the account of the house of Dunnure. We have modern-
ised the opening.
" The heirs of Sir Neil bruiked (enjoyed) the lands of Cassini, while
(during) the reign of Robert the Second, the first of the Stewart'; at
which time, the said lands fell to a lass. And the laird of Dalrumpill,
her neighbour, came to her house at Cowin's, and pursued her by force
to have her in marriage, the which she would not condescend to, but
defended the house. And at this time, the laird of Donour that then was,
he coming by, and perceiving the name, set upon the laird of Dalrumpill
and slew him, and relieved the lady, and took her with him to his
house of Donour; where, under promise of marriage, he mode her to
resign her lands in the King's hands in favour of him. But I can-
not read that ever he mamed her, to his wife. But she herself
disappointed by that deed, took displeasure and died shortly bt ter.
Now the laird of Dalrumpill being slane as ye have heard, his lands
tall to his brother's sons; amongst the which there was great strife, but
the youngest, at last, sold his right to the laird of Donour.—And then
the laird of Donour set for the eldest, and slew him, little above the
Kirk of Dalrumpill. where now there is a great cairn of stones to this
day. And, so, by that right that he had of the youngest, he bruits
(enjoys) the lands of Dalrumpill."
The Notes and Appendix, which occupy much the largest portion of
the volume, arc exceedingly creditable to the editor's research and judg.
went. lie has also given an excellent Glossary and Index ; :Ind the
book altogether is got up in the very best manner.

TAXES ON INoWLEDOE.

Mr, HUME presenteTapctition from Stockport for parliamentary
reform, and complaining of taxes. particularly those on paper, news-
papers, and pamplilets,which they justly considered as so many taxes on
knowledge. He hoped when the Parliament re.assenitiled the government
would be prepared with some measure un thus subject, and to repeal the
odious six act. passzd to put down what was termed " Cubbett's trash."
He considered them a blot on legislature.

some names having been placed in the list contrary to regulations, and
inconsistent with any principle of economy.—Ordered.
Mr. PENDARVIS presented several petitions from places in Corn-

others in returning their members, and praying for Reform of Par-
liament. _

Mr. HUME gave notice that on Monday he would move for various
returns respecting the Customs, Excise, and establishments of the Isle

taxation, and praying for the repeal of the assessed taxes.

WINTER CIRCUIT.

MAIDSTONE, BATUIDAY, Dec. 18.
The Assizes for this county stand adjourned to Monday, the 10th of
January. The grand jury were not discharged, b't were told by the
judge that, in consequence of the disturbances which had taken place in
the county, they must hold themselves in readiness in the event of any
fresh disorders. The petty juries received a similar intimation, and this
circumstance, together with that of the three men who arc left for exam.
Lion, will, it is hoped, be sufficient to check any future symptomsof out-
rage and disorder. It is reported through the town, that the convict Dyke
has confessed his guilt, and that his confession involves some particulars
respecting the burning'. The execution of the three men is to take
place on Friday next on Penendeo-heath, and immens- crowds are ex-
pected to attend. The fate of the Pitchman', who at' mere lads, ex-
cites a strong feeling in their favour, owing principally 'so their youth,
and also to the circumstance of their having been 'found guilty
through the evidence of an accomplice, who was, in fact the
promoter of the act for which they are to suffer. Under ordinary
circumstances it is probable that their sentence would be mi.
tigated to transportation for life, but in the present state of
the country it is considered that examples must be shade, and
the degree! of guilt cannot be taken into account, when once a conviction
has taken place. It was under this feeling thati these two buys were
coodemned to dealt, and the learned Judge who passed sentence upon
them, appeareel to feel the struggle between necessity and compassion.
His lordship was deeply affected, as was also Mr. Gurney, the counsel for
the prosecution, and indeed the whole court participated in the
feeling. It is, however. satisfactory to reflect that the mi..
dent of the accomplice Bishop was confirmed by other testi-
mony, which left no doubt of the guilt of the Packmans. Indeed,
1 have since learned that one of them has acknowledged that
Bishop spoke the truth. John Beaman, who was so miraculously
acquitted of having set Are to a stack of straw belonging to Mr. Jor-
dan, of (Mord, was tried this morning me • charge of having stolen a
gun-barrel frown the premises ea the night of the fire. The case was
fully peeved against him, and he war Immediately sentenced to be trans-
ported for life. The Judges proceeded ham this town to Levee, whore

REFORM.

Mr. HUMP presented • petition from eigi.t hundred and fifty la.
bowers of Arbroath, complaining of reduction of wages, without a tor-
responding !Auction of taxation, and praying for reform, with the
ballot. He then presented a petition from the county of Renfrew, for
Parliamentary reform. Ira reply to what had been said by a noble earl,
in another place, last night, (lladdington,) who said that Scotland
eared nothing about reform,--that reform was desired by Scotland
from one end of it to the other. The reform was loudly called for,—
the want of it had occasioned the taxes to be quite as burdensome as they
were in the war. He then presented a similar petition from the Incor-
porated Tailors of Edinburgh.—Ordered to be printed.
Mr. HUM E presented a petition from the borough of Hoy, for
the extension of the elective franchise to every burgess, not only
for Members of Parliament, but for their municipal of ces. lie
hoped he should live to see every burgh completely reformed. He
then presented a petition from Cupar, for reform and vote by ballot.
He was glad to see the demand for the ballot spreading like wildfire,
because without it, he was sure parliamentary reform would be
inefficient.

IRISH REPRESENTATIVE PEERAGE.

A considerable number of the disfranchised Peers of Ireland (those
strange anomalies in:the constitution) are already in the field, as eandi.
dates to fill the vacancy in the Representative Peerage, caused by the
death of Lord Bandon. The Marquises of Westmeath and Ileadfort,
the Earls of Math, Leitrim, Dunravcn, and Rathdowne, Lord Castle.
maine, and some others, have been mentioned as aspirants after this
chance dignity. It is said that the present administration have declined
to interfere in the election. The result is of little cohaequence to any
ministry, having the power of increasing the House of Lords at plea-
sure. It is understood that the venerable Earl of Fingal has declined
to offer himself as a candidate, on accountof his advanced age, and feeble
state of health.

LORD NUGENT AND A. CAMPBELL, ESQ.

The following curious correspondence between Lord Nuger.t and Mr.
A. Campbell, appeared in the Bucks Gazette of Friday last :—A re-
port of a speech made by Mr. Campbell et a dinner given to the Mar.
quis of Chandos by the freeholders of Bucks, having stated that Mr.
Campbell said " He was sorry to see an individual desert their ranks,
&c.—that individual had insulted him and his sons, and through
them the whole body of Brunswickers. This indignity he would resent
the very next opportunity that offered." Lord Nugent wrote to Mr.
Campbell, stating that he had been informed that there was an impres.
'don that the allusion was made to him, and though he could not easily
believe it, he trusted Mr. Campbell would be good enough to give him
his authority for removing the impression. Mr. Campbell replied, that
the newspaper report was incorrect ; but he neither retracted nor ex.
plained any expression he had used. Lord Nugent, on the receipt of
this note, wrote to Mr. Campbell, requesting to know whether be had
.aid that the individual to whom he alluded had deserted from some
ranks, &c. Mr. Campbell replied that the expression attributed to
him was incorrect. Lord Nugent, in acknowledging the receipt of this
note, said the phrase, as reported, if pointed at him, was offensive,
foolish, and untrue ; but having been informed by Mr. Campbell that
the report was incorrect, he had not a word more to say on the oubject.
Mr. Campbell replied the next day, in which he says :
" I am anxious, however, that there should be no misconception on
the subject. I therefore lose no time in informing your Lordship what
expressions I made use of, and stating that they referred to your Lard.
ship. At the dinner given to the Marquis of Chandra, at Aylesbury,
in celebration of his recent election, under circumstances the most flat-
tering to the House of Buckingham, as well as to his Lordship him.
self, I proposed a toast commemorative of that event. In tha course of
what I said in prefacing this toast, I expressed my admiration of the
enthusiastic attachment which had been evinced.by the thousands as-
sembled on the memorable sth of August, under the benne:s and colours
of the noble family, and stated my regret at having seen on thit day one
individual who. I considered, ought to have been foremost in the aura,
desert those colours, and show himself in the adverse ranks-.. 4 fact
known not only to those whom I addressed, but the immense *seem-
blage who witnessed it."
L:rd Nugent, the next day, wrote to Mr. Campbell, that the words
he stated were substantially the same as those in the report t they,
therefore, came in all respects under the same description. Mr. Camp..
bell wrote to Lord Nugent the next day, October 5, saying, as the
circumstance to which he referred was witnessed by thousands, no doubt
or denial could be made of its truth ; he therefore took leave to close
the correspondence. The following letter, which we give at length,
closes the published account of the transaction

MAYOR'S COURT, 00. U.

WALL V. TARLTON, smuts, OARNISNEIL
This was an action brought for the recovery of the sum of 1601. due
by the defendant to the plaintiff, and said to be in the possession of the
garnishee.
Mr. bllaniousx said the sum sought for was part of the sum of
4,000 L due to the plaintiff by the defendant, and he thought he could
satisfactorily prove that the garnishee was in possession of the funds of
the defendant to that extent, at the time the attachment was is-
sued.

Mr. E. Church, attorney, of Spital-square, stated, that Mr. Smart,
the garnishee, was not only agent to the defendant, but properly con-
cerned for him, and aho agent to the plaintiff Witness was told by
the garnishee and his clerk, that before the attachment issued, he (gar-
nishee) had received a remittance of 1601. from the defendant, and that
sum was offered in pass payment of the debt due to the plaintiff, pro-
vided judgment was not enforced. After the attachment was issued, It
was stated by the clerk of the garnishee that Mr. Smart was ready to
pay the 1501 but it was not said that the garnishee had then in his
hands 1501. of the defendant's money.
On the part of the garnishee it was proved that the 1501. which had
been remitted and offered to the plaintiff, was afterwards paid to Mr.
Drake, in part payment of an execution.
The Reconnez said that the garnishee might have offered to m
the 1601 in expectation of a supply of funds from the defendant, 'odd'.
rected the Jury to find for the garnishee.
This cause, perfectly unimportant as to any results the interests of
the parties may have on those of the public, shows in a very striking
view, the imprudence of the Courts in suffering any attorney or solicitor,
even as agent, to have the conduct of a case on both sides, as we have
been informed is frequently the case in agency offices. If a Rule of
Court will not reach this mischief, it is high time it should be made the
subject of some legislative enactment.

ADMINISTRATION OF COLONIAL AFFAIRS.

From the Wed Miss Reporter.

It la, we believe. the custom in all Foreign Governments to associate
in the administration of the affairs of their Colonies persons practically
acquainted with the interests over which they are called to preside, and
who can at all times, in consequence of their local and general know.'
ledge, give correct information and advice, in regard to the immures
best calculated to promote, through their prosperity, that of the Mother
Country. It has been for some time suspected, however, that apa
hey quite the reverse of this has been prevalent .in this country ; and
that it has unfortunately been too much the custom to look upon any
information coming from persons. however respectable, who may hap.
pen to be acquainted with or really interested in the prosperity of
the Colonies, as intrusive, and as liable to suspicion and distrust, rather
than as being entitled to be received with that medially and confideoce
whick a knowledge of the subject, and an identification of Interest ought
to inspire.
In any other case, or even in the common affairs of life, to act upon
such principles would: justly be considered the very acme and consum.
mation of folly ; and why it should be considered otherwise in the ad.
ministration of the important affair of our Colonies, appows to us act.
terly incomprehensible. if a person is unwell be iconntits—not at At-
torney—but a Physician. If he has the misfortune to be involved in
legal proceedings, or if he has legal documents to execute, it is not to
his surgeon or dentist that he applies, but to his counsel or conveyancer,
both `• learned in the law ;" and in every relation of life he applies
where satisfactory information is likely to be obtained. In no instance
would he, it' in his sober senses, apply for counsel to mere pretenders,
or to those who were unacquainted with the subject ; or for aid to such
as were directly opposed to the accomplishment of his wishes. Again, if
his chimney-sweeper or dustman were to affirm that the 'physician to
whom he entrusted the care of his health, or the counsellor who was in
charge of his most important interests, knew nothing of their business,
and were poisoning and plundering him and his whole family; and if,
instead of treating this information with ridicule and contempt, he very
gravely entertained the charge, and called upon his physician and coun-
sel to answer, and defend themselves against these imputations, we
strongly suspect that. instead of attending to a call made in so extraor-
dinary a manner, they might, in all probability, begin to reflect on the
utility of a strait waistcoat, or the necessity of a writ de lunatic° &qui-
'redo! Yet that sensible men have, in the conduct of our Colonial
affairs, been betrayed into similar absurdities, and that it has been too
often the policy of this country, in to the measures adopted for
'regulating these affairs, is, we apprehend,ra but too notorious—and the
melancholy consequences are, unfortunately, daily becoming more evi-
dent and more clearly understood.
