CORN MARKET, MARK-LANE, NOV. 19.

Although we have had but little Wheat fresh in,
since Monday, the trade was heavy this morning,
and only fine samples could be got off: all other de-
scriptions are full Is. per quarter lower. Fine Barley
is Is. per quarter dearer, having had but little at
market this week ; but there is no amendment in the
ordinaty qualities, which still continue nearly un-
saleable. Oats are rather better sale, and fine corn
Is. per quarter higher. In other articles no alteration.

SIR JOHN SINCLAIR'S ADDRESS TO THE
REFORMERS OF GREAT BRITAIN.

, Friends and Countryme.p—For aboVe forty years
"have made every exertion in my power, as a pub•
lic man, and as a private individual, to promote the
prosperity and happiness of my'country. The feel-
ings, therefore, with which I contemplate the pre.
sent distreised and disturbed state of the country,
may easily be conjectured. By the violence ofparty,
a civil war is on the brink of breaking out ;—and;
after scenes of carnage, too horribleto anticipate, it
must terminate here, as at Rome, under Czsar, in
England, under Cromwell, and in France, under
Napoleon, in the establishment, not of liberty, but of
military despotism. Before it is too late, I entreat
you to consider, whether you may not obtain di
that you can reasonably wishfor, without drawing the
sword, and throwing away the scabbard ?
The two great objects you must have in view are,
1. A Reform in the Constitution of Parliament ; and

2. A Relief from the Taxes which bear the hardest on the is-
dustrious classes of the Community.
1. tARLIAMENTARY REFO4.I.
I concur with yuu in opinion, that some alteration
in the Election of the Representatives of the Peo-
ple would be expedient-...f0r that purpose, the
smaller Boroughs should, in part, be disfranchised,
and the privileges they enjoy distributed among the
larger Counties and principal Towns in the King=
dom. That important change, if the friends to Re-
form would restrict their exertions to that since
point, might, I am persuaded, be successful. lint,
be assured) that if a "Radical Reform," as it is called,
is insisted upon, it will be firmly resisted, and never
will succeed.

Annual Parliaments, Universal Suffrage, and the
Voting by Ballot, are totally inconsistent with the
principles of that Constitution under which we have
lived so long—by which we have become the greatest
and most distinguished Nation among the Powers
of Europe, and which a great majority of the people
are determined to support. Such a form of Govern-
ment as you wish fur, has never existed in this, nor
in any other country, since the beginning of time.—
Indeed, if it were tried, it would soon be given up,
from a conviction of its utter impracticability and
from the endless coqfitsion, and perpetual disorders
which it would necessarily occasion.
It would be a pity, when " Useful improvements"
in our Constitution could be obtained, that the op-
portunity of securing them should be thrown away,
in the vain pursuit of objects that are in fact unat-
tainable.
