in aid of the Civil Power. A troop of the 16th
Lancers had also set off for the same destination,

Nine men were yesterday taken to the Salisbury In-

tived without a division. _

CARRILIt Lltta from Brussels, dated
July 18, says, 4, Thirty-two pigeons, with the word
Antwerp marked on their wings, have been sent to
London, where they were let loose on the 11th of this
month, at seven o'clock in the morning, after having
their wings countermarked London. The same day,
towards noon, one of these faithful animals arrived at
home,and obtained thefult prize; a quarter of an hour
later a second arrived, and obtained the next prize.
—The following day twelve other, arrived, making
fourteen in all. The prizes, -which are very consi-
derable, will be distributed to-morrow (Sunday) at
Antwerp. It is not with any intention of establish-
ing a correspondence between London and Antwerp
(as the Paris journals pretend) that those pigeons were
sent to 'London but merely for the pleasure of seeing
them return."

44 In NT letter last night, I omitted to state, the
Zina
ternary* tiealri, and other Troops in this neigh-
'hood, had received orders to hold themselves in
;steadiness, in case of any disturbance arising out of
the Meeting on Hunslet Moor. Luckily there was
Art the least occasion for their services, and the town
rs,as tranquil to-day as if no Meeting had been held.
The Delegates from Manchester, and other parts of
the country, together with the leaders of the Reform
party in this neighbourhood, after the Meeting broke
up yesterday evening, adjourned to the Golden Cock;
in Kiricgate, where they sat down to a sumptuous
feast, prepared for the occasion, and invoked their
farourite Goddess in copious libations of gin and ale.
" The following are the Resolutions which passed
unanimously at the Meeting yesterday :
" .Resolved—i. That there is no such thing as servitude In
adirtberefore, all statutes and enactments that have a
Irmliancy to injure one part of society, for the benefit of another:,
, pass vitiation of the immutable law of GOD 1.
.74,61-01!t.../*l4l.lators have, in innumerable instance,s
meise4 atirsei and criminal Indifference to our truly dis 7
treisyd dtintlely.und treated our Petitions with contempt. We,
tesrefeavilsokflong solemn appeal to our oppressed • fellow-
them to join us in forming a • National
otpatolwhich is to obtain an overathebrtiag tnajOrity
Or* peseriattoo; to present such a Fattiest as can scarcely
t ,havotlso desired effect; and to adopt such other co.usdto-
litvaturia as may be deemed most expedient to promo
tit 44,64cladreas of our manifold grievances.
Tkst wo.aro perfectly satisfied that our esce3lont .Cnn-
ititutiOth In Its osigtaal purity, as it was bequeathed to us by our
brave argestors, is fully adequate to all the purposes of food, Go-
vestment ; we are therefore determined not tin gist satisfied
with any thing short of the Constitution—the whole 9f the
Constitution—and nothing but the Constitution.

" 4. That, as we are perfectly satisfied that Annual Parka-
menu, and Universal Suffrage, constitute an essential part of our
Constitution, and are our rightful inheritance ; we shall consider
our grievances unredressed, and our indisputable rights with-
held from us, until we are possessed of such Annual Parliaments
and Universal Suffrage.

".5. That this Meeting cannot but view with regret, the
spsaliy of our Should-be-Leaders—that is, our Men of Property,
'in not supporting our mutual rights—convinced, that alienaticgt
of the rich front the pont, must, in the end, be the ruin of both ;
that whenever oppression or despotism militates against, or is
the ruin of the one, it must, in the end, be the destruction of
the other ; we, therefore, intrust them, before it be too late, to
stand forward and espouse the constitutional rights of the People,
by endeavouring to obtairt a Radical Reform in the system of
Representation, which can alone save the trading and labouring
classes from ruin.

" 6. That we believe the distress we now suffer has originated
in the Boroughmongering system, aided by a depreciated paper
currency, which has invived the Nation in upwards of a thou-

sand millions of debt, and which has increased taxation to such
an extent as has nearly destroyed our manufactures and com-
merce ; and we are perfectly satisfied that nothing but a cur-
rency convertible into specie—a rigid economy, and an egial
representation, can either pat an end to our own suffertnia,
saire our country's ruin.

" 7. That the Savings Bank System, which was imodts-
ted under_a pretence 'of benefiting the working classes (Who*
Maly three-fourths of them Were out of employ), is an insult to
team= sense and real understanding, and ought to be cowl-
41sted as what it really is—an engine to work the last
out-of the pockets of s few old servants and retired tradesmen,
to enable the Bank and Boroughmongers to pay the fractional
parts of their dividends, and create a sort of lesser fundholders
of those who know no better, than to make a deposit of their hard
earnings, to fill the pockets of those who are draining them of
their last shilling.

" 8. Tbat as distress has become so general and extensive,
we deem it highly necessary that Deputy Meetings should be
appointed, and out of those Deputy Meetings, District Meetings,
to meet at any place that may be thought proper ; that these
Meetings should extend 'throughout the three United King-
doms, and that they do consist of men discreet and wise, and
out of these shall be appointed men to form a National Meeting,
that the whole may be brought to one focus, in order that they
may devise the best plan of obtaining a Radical Reform, upon
the principle of Annual Parliaments, Universal Suffrage, and
Election by Ballot.
" 9. That no redress can be obtained but from ourselves;
that we amply possess the means ; and if we fail to adopt
them with vigour, and resolutely persevere therein, we shall
merit every privation we may have to endure, and deserve
the detestation of posterity, to whom we shall leave a greater
legacy of tyranny and oppression, than ever was bequeathed by
one generation to another.

"10. That should the usurpers of our rights, in order to retain
their power, proceed to acts of violence against the people, and
even succeed in incarcerating individuals, we earnestly entreat
out fellow-countrymen not to suffer their exertions to relax, and,
beg they will endeavour to lighten the fetters, and enliven the
dungeons of those men who arc now suffering, or may hereafter
suffer in the sacred cause of liberty.

" 11. That we consider it the duty of every individual to,
stand with all Ws might against oppressive and partial laws. .•

4' IL. That every well-wisher to mankind cannot but.tansii
der it to be his duty to endeavour to work a thorough reloctuh.
riot isk4he political sod moral state of the country.'

, 13. That a very small number of own, who -1

to National Councils, and plundered the people, in order to.
complete their fraud, have hind the offscourinp of moiety to.
print and publish Newspapers, the Xditors of which endeavour
to make the people believe the present system is for their good;
while they are fattonin* on our property, and :educing all rank.
to beggary I • ,

"14. That the passing of Corn Laws, in opposition to. the
expressed will of the people—the Combination Act, in older to
prevent work-pepple from Unitedly attempting to raibe their
wages, in proportion to the advancement of provisions, and the
imposing a Dnty on Foreign Wool, at a time when the woollen
manufacture, and those employed therein, are in the most de-
plorable condition, appears to this Meeting proof positive, that
until the Members of the Commons House are really appointed
by the people at large, little improvement is tp be expected.
" 15. That as soon as an eligible person who will accept the
appoinment can be found, to represent the unrepresented part of
the inhabitants of Leeds, in the House of Commons, another
meeting shall be called, for the purpose of *electing him to that
situation !I. !".

The Duke of Sussex, as Colonel of the Honour-
able Artillery Company, attended yesterday at the
Armoury House, with the Company.

The Public Meeting which was antiolincnd to tali
place hist Monday affertioon, in the market-placen
Nottingham, and which had caused some degree
apprehension in the minds of the well4rneentingTh_.•
bitants, has happily passed over very quittlY4 Thil

nitely short of what had been calculated opbr4
sidering the pains that had been taken to dra* thefts'
together, Not more than four or five thousand %reitt
present at onetime dining the afternoon'. '
The business commenced by Mr. I?Arth,orns being
called to the Chair, who read over a variety of papers,
relative to the measures which had been taken for
convening the Meeting, and which it appeared had
emanated from several indieiduah'who had suet for
the purpose, at Mr. Ileald's, the_Gtilden-Fleece. A
requisition had been addressed to the Mayor, who
fused to acgniesce in the proposal for calling !t.ptlblid

in interposing between the throne and the people, by.
stopping np.the 'legal commtinication between the
Prince and-the subject, and ought to be punished.--
Another Re'sOlution recommended the formation of'
Union Societies in every town and village. Another
Resolution .denounced the House of Commons (as at
present constituted) as the most corrupt and profli-
gate, unworthy the.confidence of the people; that the
Members had .fattened upon the vitals of this once-
flourishing kingdom, and reduced it to beggary and
pauperism. In another Resolution, the hy.pocritical-
Whigs were, declared to be greater enemies to reform
than the Tories. Another recommended the ado's.
tion of Female Societies, on the plan of " the Blaeka
burn Female Reforming Sudety." . The Declaration
agreed to at Oldham was also unanimously approVed
and adopted; and, lastly, a Resolution was carried,
passing a vote of censure orrthe Mayor, fur refusing
to call the Meeting. In the course of the proceedingi
several long and very inflammatory Speeches were
made. Parson Harrison seemed to be the grand pi,

In speaking of penny societies, he said they had al. -
ready been, and would be, of the greatest use, so
far as they were appropriated to defray the expense
of public meetings, of printing, and to defend those
highly valued patriots, who might render themselves
liable to prosecution. In allusion to private assassi
nation, which had been talked of, he strongly depre.
aated the idea, and declared his .abhorrence at the
shedding of blood. Towards the conclusion of his
several harangues, he informed the Meeting, that ae.
legates were to be chosen, who would assemble at
Oldham, or elsewhere, to consult upon the measures
to be pursued in the furtherance of the grand object
of obtaining a Reform in Parliament.
In conclusion, the speakers severally voted thanks
to each other, which were adopted, and betweenfive
and sit o'clock the Meeting broke up, and the pecipla•
all.retired peaceably to their homes. •

stream, and with great promptness caught Miss
Maestri's, whom he brought to land in safety. He
instantly made an effort to save Miss TEMPLETON,
and fondly hoped that he had seized her by the hair,
at the moment she had sunk under the water—but
when he raised his hand, he found that it only grasped
a crooked comb, with which she had bound up her
tresses. Mean while the body was hurried away by
the retiring tide, and was not discovered till two
hours after the fatal accident, and then at a great
distance from the spot where she had sunk. All efforts
to restore to life this fine young woman, who was nct
more than le years of age, proved fruitless.

CONCERT-ROOM, KING'S THEATRE.

Miss 'Maeaut.av's Literary and Musical Regalia
terminated last night, for the season. The audience
who witnessed, and expressed their decide.' appro.
.balion of the performance, was very numerous. and
comprised many fashionable characters. We hope-
. Miss MACAULEY'S recess will not be a protracted one.
tier entertainment, though but a short time in exis-
tence, had began to create a considerable degree of
inxrest—and, when a little better known, would be
as arra:tire as any of the manottratnes which have
re:en:ly engaged the attention of the London public
.--more attractive, if intelkd be worthy bf admira-
tion. Miss litcaw.Ey's melange evinces intellectual
imaers of a verrertended range, while, in most of
the ntotsod,aases to which we have alluded, aseatory,
the sole dependence of the mere imitator, usurps the'
place of mind. Should this Lady's project not suc-
ceed to her wishes, we think it scarcely possible that
her ea:ions talents would not inssure her a profitable
.Engagement at one of •other of the Winter Theatres.
Her genius is of the most excursive order. She sings
tastefully—pourtrays the serious pas.ions faithfully
—and describes those of a jocund character with
agreeable animation. We were quite delighteJ with
her affecting execution of Mooases beautiful ballad,
Believe me, if all these endearing young c.harrns ; and
we have not often heafd the celebrated song, Angels
ever bright and Air, more delicatelyor more impres-
sively given. The apostrophe to the memory of Mrs.
Joitoax is written with all the warmth of enthusiasm
—and the same warmth pervaded Miss MACAVLIT'S
iechation. In a comic sketch, entitled Le PetitSens-
per, Miss MACAUI4Y imitated, with great success;
the Irish, Scotch, and Yorkshire dialects. Li this
parr...of her performance she displayed as much taste
for the gay and huiiorous, as she had previously
done for the lotty'ausd tragic, when reciting portions
Of the character:Of Queers Katkarise and Moira.

Her whole perforaiance was received with the
loudest applause.

CAMBRIDGE, JUL YOX

. We are concerned to state that the diabolical spirit
for destroying dwelling-houses, barns, &c. still con-
tinues in this county. A few nights since a house at
Isleham, belonging to Mr. Hall, a brewer, of Ely,
was wilfully set on fire and burnt to the ground, with
all the goods of the occupier ; and on Sunday night
lastr in the parish of Ealing, where the barn and corn
of Mr. Bryant were so recently set on fire, five more
houses of that village were set on fire on Sunday night
last, and the families that occupied them escaped
with difficulty from perishing in the flames. Several
letters have been dropped, threatening the total de-
struction of this prescribed village, in which theie
have been twelve houses burnt to the ground, no
doubt by the same desperate incendiaries, within the
last two years. Mr. HawoocK, the grocer, received
a letter, stating that his house would be burnt to the
ground before the sun rose on Monday morning,
.which was too truly verified. On Suaday-last four
houses were destroyed by fire at Hill-row, in the pa-
rish of Haddenham, in this county, belonging to far-
mers, but the calamitous conflagration, it is believed,
was accidental. The sufferers on this Lamentable oc-
casion were Messrs. J. ‘y„ay man, M. Porter, P. Yeter,
and J.
