ADDRESSED TO

MRS. DEBORAH DUQBINS, AT CHELMSFORD.
DEar. DEBBY DUB,
Some time ago you entailed the dreadful state of
alarm you was in about electioneering matters in
your part of the country, and when you suppressed
your fears that the Reformers and the Anti-Re-
formers being so angry with one another there
would be serious disturbances at the beatings, I
deeply anticipated in your feelings, as you unfolded
your horful tail. But now I have a tail to unfold,
which calls for your tenderest symphony. You
know what a quandary I have been in for several
months about the ferocious Bill, as it was called
by Sir Charles, that noble champion of the Statues
of the Ream. Every night when I went to bed, I
expected, that before morning a resurrection would
break out ; and when I fell into the arms of
Orpheus, l dreamed of nothing but soldiers and
populouses, and cannon balls, and brick brat..
Often have I, in hairy vishuns, beheld the
pieceful sectary of my house invaded, and my
mahogny chores and tables earled out of my antic
windows by an aspirated mob upon cores of mili-
tary, indurated to madness. Really I heard so
much about the Church being in danger, that I've
almost been afraid to go to Chapel, and the suf-
ferings which 1 have undergone, have worn me
down to a mere hatomy. I don't know what the
Reform Bill will do the Constitution of the Um-
pire, but I know it has made such renovations
upon mine, that Dr. Squill tells me my stammer-
er's much injured, and that I am in great danger
of falling into a preliminary infection, which you
know is a decease of the lungs, and is sure to end
in an assumption. And after all, what is the Re-
form that all this fuss has been made about ?
If they meant that there, should be a fair repre-
sentation of the people, why should not the fair
sex send Members to Parliament ? All that the
litigators do that I can see, is to make long speech-
es, and if we cant beat em at that, the Douce is
in it. There's many things that women would do
that would be quite as useful to the country as any
thing that was carried in the last Session of Par-
liament; for all they did in it was to quarrel and
call one another names. Now if I was Membress
for Chelmsford, or any other place, I'd bring in a
bill to prevent the increase of Old Bachelors,
which would give the highest satisfaction to many
a flour, who now is _

born to blush unseen !
And waste her sweetness on the desert hair.

Next•l would move fora law, making it a Capital'
offence without benefit of clergy, for. any man to
break a promise of marriage. The duty on tea
should be taken off; and it should go hard if we did
not soon contain a Bill to establish the Rites of
Women, which the men folk now pervade with per-
fect importunity. Vhu'e so fit to be Secretary of
State for the Home Department as a woman ? and if,

TO NOBLEMEN AND GENTLEMEN.

S ABSOLUTE FACT, why Gentlemen
choose to submit to the very high Charges of their
Tailors, is, because it is well known there are but few who
c.in make a Coat, fit for a Gentleman's wear, and those few
thus monopolize the Patronage of most of the Nobility and
Gentry.

But this monopoly can be now but of short duration,
iv; if. FLETCHLR, (from Moore's, late Bicknell and
Aloore's) can produce Coats, &c. &c. which cannot possibly
h: distinguished by the critical eye, even of a Brummell,
either in make or materials, from those of any eminent
Tailor in the neighbourhood of Clifford-street, or St. James's,
and at very little more than half their charges, yet obtaining
a fair Tradesman's Profit.

H. F. favoired by the Patronage of many Noblemen and
Gentlemen who have known him for years, whilst under
an engagement to the above eminent House, and anxious
that Gentlemen may calculate the very considerable reduction
which they may make in their Annual Expenditure, has the

CP The THIRD A Hick on LordWYNFOILD'S Fraudulent Debtors'
Bill, will positively appear in this Paper on Monday.

THE QUARTER'S REVENUF.

The details of the Revenue will be made up on Tuesday
next, but the following is a brief summary of the three lead-
ing branches, and which will be found to approach very
near the amount that will appear in the official statement:
Year 1830. Year 1831.
Quarter ended sth April. Quarter ended sth April.
Customs 3,518,000 . 3,658,000.

The above shews an actual deficiency, for the quarter
ended sth April, 1831, of £254,000; but the only astonish-
ment is, that the deficiency is so small, when we recollect
the amount of .repealed imposts which have come into
operation between the two periods, viz.
One Quarter's amount of Beer Duty (Excise)
Ditto ditto Leather (Ditto)
Ditto ditto, 3s. on Raw Sugar(Customs)

Amounting in the whole to £795,000, which, if added to
the sum of £8,078,0001. produces an increase of Revenue
in-the quarter about to expire of £541,000.

We have much satisfaction in to-day submitting to our
readers, a private letter from an intelligent friend in Paris,
giving a very rational view of the present policy of the
French Government. We need make no comments on it'.
The German papers received this morning, afford us the
following extracts, sheaving the precarious state of the
Italian Patriots, in consequence of the Austrian intervention :

SPAIN.

The following article appears in the unofficial part of thu
Gazette ;

" MADRID, MARCH 20.—1 n the course of last Saturday,
a number of placards, bearing treasonable inscriptions of the
same description as appeared on the morning of the 6th,
were found scattered about in several of the streets.—
This new mode of conspiracy against public order, is in
itself a proof of the weakness of the rebels, who him.
not even the courage to post up a pasquinade ; and is su
far consolatory, inasmuch as it shows that they have a
feeling of distrust, and want of confidence in themselves.
In these placards an appeal is made to the Royalist volun-
teers to unite in the destruction of the throne and of re-
ligion ; and it is but fair to suppose that if the rebels call
upon the royalists, it is because they have no confidence in
their own strength. Thus, then, our conviction is further
confirmed, though it is a painful reflection, that nothing
but the cannon and the sword of the Royal armies will be
able to demonstrate a truth which it has been the object of
all our arguments to prove."

THE SCHOOLMASTER ABROAD.
IT is well known that by the above phrase the eloquent Orator meant to designate a friend of his, the Author of the
following WORKS, and of many others well known to the Public and to the Scholastic World; Works, whose succenire publication
during the last Thirty-four Years, have so eminently tended to produce that astonishing march of intellect which characterises the present Age.
The BOOKS announced beneath, whose importance is in the inverse ratio of their bulk, and their unpretending appearance, are part of a NEW
SERIES, resulting at once from long experience, and from improvements founded on improvements.

This elegant Monthly Miscellany is this month peculiarlytpirieuelle,

Numbers of a work, the proprietors of which appear anxiously bent on
ensuring public favour, by deserving it. We have not room to com-
ment, but we cannot resist the temptation to enrich our columns with the
following poetical effusion from the pen of Mrs. Opie.
AUX POLONAIS QUI PARTENT.
BY RIM OPIE.
At length the parting hour is come !
The tyrant lifts his flag on high,
And Poland calla her patriots home,
To conquer in her cause, or die!
But I can speak no parting word
To cheer you on your path to fame,
Nor point to Sobieskes sword,
Nor breathe Kosciusko's deathless name!
My woman's heart, my Christian creed,
Love not the hero's laurelled spear,
And would the warrior's course impede,
E'en though he Poland's banner bear.
Yet, if again for deeds of blood,
In Polish hands must edgy gleam,
And Vistula's long peaceful flood
Roll on, a war.ensanguined stream ;
Take the sole aid that lan give,
Nor you this humble aid despise—
On morning's beams, on dews of eve,
For you my constant prayers shall rise.
ask that " GOD who heareth prayer,"
Ere yet in blood your banners wave,
To stop the war-fiend's fierce career,
And crown each patriot wish HE gave'
Nor will my prayers alone ascend,
So just the cause to Poland given,
Myriad., for you, will suppliant bend,
And call a blessing down from heaven.
• • • • •

I can no more ;—my song is sung;
My lyre is mute ;—Loved friend, farewell !
The accents falter on my tongue ;
The rest, these starting tears must tell.

CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.

SITTING Or MARCH 30.
The House proceeded to the continuation of the discussion on the
association.

M. Bernard attacked a proposition of M. Dupla, as to that moods.
don and all othas being considered as public assemblies, -and having
the law now treated upon, relative to mobs, applied likewise to
associations. He considered the association to which he belonged as a
meritorious one.

M. Dupin (Aino then answercd the accusation laid against him.—
He had not proposed that the association should be considered a turbu-
lent one, but only that it was necessary to take all the precautions they
could against such et ils.

M. C. Perrier ascended the tribune to acquaint the Chamber and the
nation with the view in which the Government considered these ease-
elation, so that those who were proposed to belong to them might
know first what they were likely to subject themselves to. He
then showed that evil might arise from those associations, in
reading an article made by the association under the name of
" Aide-tai, le Cid taideras" and the Government would consider
all political associations as mistrustful of their honour and actions.—
He confuted some interpretations of General Lafayette rela-1
dee to the 100,000,000 that had been demanded by the Go-
vernment. He said that that Hon. Deputy was mistaken ; that the
100,000,000 were by no means connected with the affairs of Poland, they
were merely as a measure of precaution. And that now, relative to the
own of Italy, the French Government Wan making negotiations
which they hoped would be aut.cessful, and equally satisfactory to both
the countries concerned.
M. SALVERTZ spoke in defence of a personal attack of the
Dieters.

M. ODILLOW BAIROT defended the sesoetadon.

MARCH 29.—An engagement took place on the 23d inst.
about four in the morning, between the frontier guards of

the French Rhine and the Baden guards, in consequence of
the violation of territory by the latter, in their pursuit of some
deserters. Two of our men were killed and five wounded,
amongst whom were the Lieutenant and the Serjeant. Tin.
Badois had five killed and seven wounded. A battalion of
infantry and two batteries of artillery are forming an ~„_

Austria has at length recognized the neutrality of S%; it.
zerland, and the acknowledgment by Russia and Prii3i.t
will immediately follow. It is known that the Austrian
Cabinet in its diplomatic note gives the formal assuriu.ce
that it will strictly respect our neutrality, and will not in.
terfere in any manner in the affairs of the cantons. This
power would not even require, as has been reported, the con-
dition that Switzerland shall every where line its frontivN

TO THE AFFLICTED WITH RUPTURE.

HENRY WRIGHT, Self-Adjusting Truss, and Sur-
gical Instrument Maker, 32, London-Road, Southwark,
Begs leave to announce to the Public and Medical Gentlemen, that
he manufactures Trusses upon an Improved Principle, for these af-
flicted with Hernia.

It is difficult to explain the nature with which some Ruptures are
kept from descending, and very frequently to almost bid defiance to
every kind of Truss to retain the Rupture.

H. W. Batters himself, from the number of years' experience, to
have a competent knowledge in securing the most obstinate Cases of
Ruptures with which persons have been afflicted a number of years.
H. W. manufactures a variety of Trusses to the construction of the
Body, and has never had any Case of Hernia without being able to
reduce it to its relative situation, however laborious and trying the oc-
cupation of the person so afflicted.
N.B. Manufactures the Improved Domestic Instrument, by which
Costiveness may be instantly removed, and its dangerous consequences
prevented, by the application of Warm Water only : it is quite simple
in its construction, and also portable.

Surgical Instruments of every description warranted of the belt
manufacture.

Merchants and Captains supplied for Exportation.

THE CHURCH.

There was a petition presented on the 25th of March, from North
Wootton, Somersetshire, on the subject of tithes. It is now printed in
the appendix to the votes, and the following is an extract from it:—
"
That the payment of tithe*, as now exacted, is hard on the agri-
culturists, and tends mnch to promote strife between the clergy and
their parishioners, contrary to the doctrine inculcated by the holy
scriptures ; that the petitioners know this to be the LIMO in their own
parish. The petitioners have for the hat 20 years, and during the in.
cumbency of the Rev. Mr. Barnard, their present vicar, paid annual
sums in lieu of tithes, which, of course, the vicar considered fair, by his
acquiescence for so many years; that some short time ago the vicar was
made a canon of the cathedral church of Wells, and he is also vicar of
Tattoo and Kenn, and vicar of Pilton, as well as North Wootton ; that,
fulfilling the old adage, ' the more a man has the more he wants,' the
new canoti gave petitioners notice to dissolve the composition and to
set their tithes out in kind, and claimed his tithes in full, although
there are modules existing in the parish ; that the petitioners deter-
mined
to resist this new and unjust demand ; the vicar then required an
advance of 'bold 301. per cent. on their former payments ; that the
petitioners, at a vestry meeting held in December last, feeling every
disposition to support the established church, offered to continue their
former payments, though they knew such payments to be more than
they could afford; but this the vicar declined to accept, and threatens
proceedings against the petitioners, and that too at a time when uni-
versal distress is on all hands admitted to prevail, and when the bishop
of the diocese has recommended to his clergy, In some recently published
remarks on the existing distress, an abatement of their tithes ; that the
petitioners have now a choice of two evils,—either to encumber their
lands for ever with payments in the shape of tithes, to which they are
not liable, or to involve themselves in expensive proceedings in the
Court of Chancery," &c.

THE ARMY.
DUBLIN, MARCH 30.
The 92d Highlanders, stationed at the Royal Barrack+, have received
orders to hold themselves in immediate readiness to march—destination
unknown, but the north is conjectured to be their next quarters.
The 76th regiment, at Richmond Barracks, have also received a letter
of readiness.

Two troops of the 7th hussars have arrived at Newbridge, from
Dundalk.

The sth Lancers, on being relieved by the 7th, at Newbridge, pro.
ceed to Limerick.

The depot of the 34th regiment. under the command of Captain
Gastoyne, arrived in Limerick on Tuesday.
On Tuesday morning, the three companies of the 59th regiment,
which were stationed in Limerick fur the brat ten days, marched then=
to Birr, to join headquarters.
The above companies of the 9th regiment were overtaken on their
march by a countermand, and returned to Limerick about one o'clock.
An additional company of the sth regiment left Clare Castle, for
Kilrush, on Monday morning.

ITALY.

We extract the following from the Precurseur of Lvol:, :
The news of the occupation of Bologna by the Austrians iv?.
given as having been communicated from the Embassy at
Turin ; and we received the account from persons whom v
supposed perfectly instructed on the subject. However, the
number of the Precurseur of Bologna, of the 19th of thii
month, the eve of the day on which the Imperial trooi•s wer.,
to have entered that city, does not contain a single tett-
tence to indicate so immediate an event. There is nothing
said of a movement on the part of the Austrian troops ; it
merely refers to an unimportant attack made by the Bolog-
nese militia against the town of Rietti, in the possession o:
the Papal troops. Seven hundred refugees from Ferrara have
been incorporated with Bolognese militia. The same Journal
states that the eldest son of Louis Bonaparte died at Forli on
the 16th of March, universally regretted by the inhabitants
of Italy.

It is in vain that the President of the Council has ex-
hausted all the resources of the art of oratory,—it is in vain
that he sprinkled his speech with assurances of peace, and
hopes for the future. The melancholy truth has not failed to
strike even the dullest minds. The possibility of war and the
deplorable state of our finances have become evident to
every body, and the fundholders have hastened to bring their
stock to market, and have caused a further decline in all the
species of stock to a very great and alarming extent.—
] Gazette.

Two months ago, we had only a very little budget ofl
1,200 and some odd millions, but it grows visibly, like a
hopeful child. A fortnight ago, at the farthest, it was
already at 1,300,000,000. To-day, at four o'clock, M.
Humann had measured it at 1,434,635,000 francs; and at
a quarter past four M. Casimir Perier informed us that it
would to-morrow reach to 1,534,635,000 francs.—La Tribune.

PARIS, SATURDAY.--The Chamber is dissolv-

selves their future destinies. If they name a ma-
jority of the Gauche, they will immediately have
the republic, and its two inevitable consequences,
invasion and anarchy. If they name a majority of
the droite, they will re-enter into monarchical prin-
ciples. If they name a majority of the centres,
they will preserve that struggle which keeps society
in suspense, and which must finish by the triumph
of the Gauche. Thus there are two entrances for
evil, and only one entrance for good ; and that the
republicans would wish to close behind use. These
three elements well known, their combinations will
not be difficult to describe. At any time that
two of these elements unite against one, they will
bo masters. It is thus that we saw the centres
wined to the droite, make the restoration, and the
centres united to the gauche, make the revolution.
Now again, if the centres unite to the gauche, we
shall have the republic, and if they unite to the
Mac, we shall have the monarchy. It may be
remarked that neither the droite nor the gauche
can displace any thing themselves, and that the
men of the gauche, or the men of the droite, unless
they unite to the centres, have isolated existences
which loses itself in a neutral power, struck with
sterility, like all that which is neuter in nature.—
The centres by themselves can do nothing. It is im-
la4sible for them to constitute themselves in inde-
pendence from the one or the other party, theyare
under the necessity of choosing the productive
principle which they believe necessary to their sal-
vation, the principle of droite or the principle of the
gauche, for there are but these two principles, and
out of them there is neither strength nor power.—

ITALY.

According to letters from Italy, which have
reached us this day, it was on the 31st of May that
the evacuation of Ancona was to take place, and
that of Bologna is announced for the 15th of June ;
if, in fact, that can be called an evacuation, which
i; merely a displacing of troops. From Ferrara to
Ancona it is scarcely five days march, and the Aus-
trians, in quitting that last position, do not renounce
the occupying it again if they should judge neces-
sary. The same letters state that the efforts of M.
de Saint-Aulaire, and the other Ambassadors, as-
sembled at Rome, to obtain from the papal govern-
ment, under the form of a protocol, the promise of
giving to its subjects institutions, and principally
municipal laws, has not had any result. Although
protesting his moderation, the Pope has refused
to contract any engagement of this kind. He re-
mains absolute master as before, and will not con-
sent to the least sacrifice of former abuses.—Le

GANZ 1..1116.ZE1 V. TIIOROOOOD.

The defendant, a common canter, was taken before two
Justices of Suffolk, on a charge of having in his possession
four hares and four pheasants. The game was put up in a
hamper, and taken up on the road to London by the defen-
dant's servant, who was driving his van at the time. The
hamper was taken up and put in the van in the ordinary way,
of business, and there was nothing about it to indicate that it
contained game rather than any thing else. The servant
swore that he did not know that it contained game, and the
defendant, who was at a distance, could not himself know
any thing about the matter. The Justices, however, con-
victed him under the statute of the 6th of Anne, in penalties
to the amount of 401. being 61. for every head of game, and
sentenced him to three months' imprisonment in case of non-
payment.
The case having been brought before the Court on a rule
to quash the conviction, it was contended that, as the defen-
dant had proved his total want of knowledge that the hamper
contained game, the conviction could not be supported.
The Cou sr took time to consider.

As the Coutt were about to rise, Lord TENTiIIbIN asked
whether there was any motion that would not occupy many
moments ? ._ . _ _ _ .

SIT Janis SCARLITT said that he had a short motion to
make. It was for a rule Nisi for a criminal information
against a Mr. Payne, an attorney. The application was
made on the behalf of Mr. Toogood, a gentleman who had
been for 30 years an eminent surgeon at Bridgewater. Mr.
Toogood had said, in the presence of some friends, that he
bad never received a letter from an attorney but one, and that
was from Mr. Payne.
Lord TINTEIRDZW—I see this will be too long. We
will hear you further on Monday.

THE FRENCH AND DON MIGUEL.

Our advices this morning from Lisbon to the 22d
ult. state, that the French squadron, to demand
satisfaction, had arrived off the rock of Lisbon,
consisting of two 60-gun ships, two corvettes, and
a brig of war. The latter had been sent into Lis-
bon-bay, with the peremptory demands of the
French Government, as stated in our Falmouth
letter; but MIGUEL being at his country palace,
48 hours time was demanded for reply, and the
brig had returned to the squadron for instructions.
in the mean time IN 10IIEL had arrived in Lisbon,
and demanded other forty-eight hours; and it was
believed in Lisbon, that the demands would be re-
sisted. The Agio, on the first appearance of the
squadron, fell to 27 ; afterwards rose to 29 ; and,
at the departure of the intelligence, had fallen
again to 28. The result is expected with anxiety.
But the more important intelligence by this
channel, is the account received at Lisbon, that
the Constitutionalists at Terceira, had taken ST.
MICHAEL'S, the chief of the Azores, and had put
to death the Governor—a tyrannical agent of
MIGUEL. Of course the possession of the Azores,
by this more reasonable power, is an important
fact, with reference to the interests and navigation
of Great Britain.

THE FRENCH CHAMBERS.

II There appears to be much equivocation about the
dissolution of the French Chambers. They were
prorogued newly a month ago, with a professed view
to dissolution ; yet owing to some mistrust, it has
not taken place, thcugh spoken of week after week.
In the mean time the KING has made a tour, and
M. PERIER, we uro told, has sent an address to
the Electoral Colleges—of extraordinary length.
What should we in England have thought if any
Prime Minister had presumed to take so imperti-
nent a liberty with the electors of England ? Was
not the same indecency a chief cause of the over-
throw of Pomo NAc ? What do the Government
want distinct from the wishes of the people, and
why all this management ? But other parties are
active—and we as Englishmen ask, why not? Is
not this civil liberty? Are not all parties diligently
at work in England before an election; yet did the
Government in its own name ever interfere ? If
the French Ministry have no partizans but them-
selves,
woe to them ; but if they have, why not I
trust the elections to the free play of parties ? II
the pusillanimous foreign policy of the Ministry has
made it generally odious—why did it not render
itself popular by a more worthy policy ? Do the
Ministers suppose that all the wisdom of France cen-
tre:. in them ? A despot may despise the public
voice—not so a free government—and yet of this
trito truth the French Ministers appear to be ut-
terly ignorant. Coquetry, equivocation, jockey-
ship, cajolery, and other fooleries, do no good in
such cases ; and we suspect that the electors of
France will pay more homage to the honour of
France, and the cause of civil and religious li-
berty all over the world, than to any favourite
policy of the successive Cabinets of Louts
PHILIPPE. We bear no more of the bouncing
article in the Journal des Debats—and really if
this was a mere election trick, the parties concerned
deserve exemplary punishment.

LON PON .

\WEDNESDAY. JUNE 1.
TILE KING KING OF BELGIUM.

The Bruxelles papers, received this morning,
confirm, as a fact, that Prince LEOPOLD has sig-
nified, by Lod d PON SON BY, that he will accept
the throne of Belgium, if elected—and of the elec-
tion there can he no doubt, since the Congress had
already decided, by an immense majority, in his
favour. Of the good feeling that exists on the
subject, in the Belgic Government, we have evi-
dence, in a magnanimous letter of SURLET de
CHORIER, who modestly reproves an editor, for
printing an article, in which he is complimented
with being a fitter Sovereign than Prince LEOPOLD.
For our own parts, as friends to all that is liberal,
we take the liberty to state that we think, that if
Belgium is not allowed to have a President in the
fashion of the United States, Prince LEOPOLD is
the fittest foreign Prince that could be proposed.
Other points are more Belgic than European—
Luxernburgh is to be Belgic for a consideration
paid to the KING of HOLLAND; but Limburgh
and its county are to be retained, and the Dutch
are to be allowed to occupy both sides of the
Scheldt, below Antwerp. Both points cannot
tail to be a fruitful source of future discord ; and
we can only account for dispositions so monstrous
and absurd, by the consideration that some of the
parties to the protocols were members of the black
Congress of Vienna!

PAGANINL

We insert with much satisfaction the following

announcement, which has been inclosed to us by
this celebrated, and, we believe, very ingenious
man. The original is in French, and he has re-
qnested as in submitting it to the public, to translate
it literally—which we have done, even, as will be
observed, to the preservation of the foreign idiom
more than our own free taste would have dictated.
We have very little doubt but that the liberality of
the public will readily receive the explanation here
given as satisfactory, and that the error in judgment,
which has delayed a little the public appearance of
this very original genius, will not be remembered
to his prejudice :
" The evening of my first Concert in the King's Theatre
is now so near, that I feel it a duty to announce it myself,
to recover the favour of the British nation, which honours
the arts, as much as 1 respect the nation itself.

" Habituated in all the countries on the Continent to
double the usual prices of the theatres in which I have given
my concerts, and little instructed in the custom of this capi-
tal, where I present myself for the first time, I had be-
lieved I could dothe some here; but informedbysereral jour.
nals, that the prices already established are here much higher
than those on the Continent, and having myself discovered
that the observation was just, 1 voluntarily accede to the de-
sire of a public—the esteem and goodwill of which I aspire
to obtain as my highest recompence."

WAR IN POLAND.

We have just received the Journal des Debuts
of Sunday, containing various important intelli-
gence, from the seat of war in Poland, down to the
17th of May. An Estafette on that day arrived
at Warsaw from Zamosc, which fortress it left on
the 12th, at two o'clock. It appears that Generals
Cnaz an ow sit t and Rom A RANO had, agreeably to
the object for which they were dispatched by the
General-in-Chief, approached Zamosc, and had
previously sent before them eight hundred Russian
prisoners ; and the fighting in the vicinity was
still continued. General KRTZSINS.KI, the Com-
mander of the fortress, had sent two battalions and
five pieces of cannon, to assist in the action. The
same despach states that two hundred and fifty
officers and soldiers of DIVERNIcsi's corps had
arrived in Poland.

A letter from Berlin, of the 21st May, states
that the Lithuanian insurgents— or rather, we
may presume, some of them—had approached the
Prussian frontiers, with an intention to enter them.

THE WEST INDIA QUESTION.

A few days since we exclusively laid before the
public, Reports of the Demerara Planters, and of
the Convention of West India Planters, held at
Barbadoes, relative to the sufferings and losses of
that extensive branch of industry for want of re-
munerating prices. The cause is, the competition
of Foreign Planters in other settlements, where the
continuance of the Slave Trade enables them to
grow at less cost, which competition cannot be met
by British Planters, owing to our heavy duties.—
Hence this, like other grievances, becomes a mere
question of taxation, and the enemies of Slavery,
and aggravated Slavery, pat the Planters in the
wrong by petitioning against those cruelties; and
they ought rather to call, with one voice, for the
reduction of the duties on West India produce.—
This would at once enable our Planters to compete
with French, Dutch, Danish, and Spanish planters,
and, at the same time, ease the slaves. It is put-
ing the Planters in the wrong, to petition against
that excess of labour by which alone they can avoid
annual loss ; and it is creating perplexity to Go-
vernment and Planters not to sea with equal ener-
gy, a modification of taxes which are the primary
cause of all the evils. Again, if all duties were
taken off British West India productions, the ques-
tion of free labour might then be entertained by all
parties ; for, in fact, those taxes, like others in re-
gard to home labourers, ultimately resolve them-
selves into labour, and in this case reach the labour
and liberty of the wretched blacks.
