DARING R01311E111!

—.am.—
A fellow, who calls hinutof " Thhenae Peet, Esq."
has been guilty of a most daring robbery of the Righter.
He has published a pamphlet, which be calls '•a letter
"to David Ricardo, k'sq., M. P. On the true print iple,
" of estimating the extent of the late depreciation in the
" currency ; and on the effect of Mr. Peel's fill for the
" resumption of cash payments by the Bank." Thi4
pamphlet bas been sent to us by a friend in the country,
who, in sending it, pointed out the robberies the author
bad committed. We, upon only lookink at the title page,
should have known that it c.intained something excessive•
ly foolish at any rate ; for, whatever may be our custom
as to the tides we give each other, it is impos4ible that
any bat an empty-headed coxcomb, a creature void of all
sense of shame, a thing hardly exceeding in intellect the
strutting turkey-cork that sends down his long, red,
nasty ',Miler over his bill, and that cries gob-a-gob-a,
that people may look at hint ; it is impossible that
say creature but a creature like this can CALL
HIMSELF A 'SQUIRE, write the thing with his own
hand, and caned it to be printed by his own direction and
at Meows eapettee!—When, therefore, we see a publi-
cation, by such as one Esquire, we, in our minds, pot
the word fool er impostor for that of 'Squire; and we
always final, we invariably find, the author to be one or
the other; g Ily both, with a larger portion of the
fool than of the impostor, though, in most cases, quite
enough of the latter. —The 'Squire, whom we have here
brought up for trial, appears to be all fool; for, while he
has taken from the Register much wore than sofficieat
to prove, that Mr. Ricaano is, as to the subject in ques-
tion, • refkoadly ignorant man, he professes the great-
est " i
erases and respect" foe him and his talents awl
knotele +e!—To the Letter to RICARDO, he adds one in
Sir FRANCIS BORDZTT On his speech (adopting the kit
cardo foolery), made on the 15N of February last. Sc.
COLLECTIVI COMMINTARIES, page 26. See also Reis-4
ter, March 9, 1822, pages 596 and 6111. This turkey-
cock 'Squire. in his letter to Sir FRANCIS, proves, by the
help of robbery of the Register, the downrightfoofigh-
nen of the Baronet's speech; and, with this proof in
his plagiaristic pen, he says, he has the " highest
" respect" for the Baronet's talents, anti says, that
not a single word falls from his lips without " pal-
" dicing an impression throaghoat the country."—
He even begs" pardon" for pointing oat the Baronet's
"error"; or, rather, fur calling it an error I—Singntar
cock turkey I So very modest with regard to others,
and so very daring with regard to the Author of the
Register I—The pamphlet is, kook one end to the
other, a collection of plagiarisms, es far as the author
goes n showing the effects of Peel's Bill. There is not,
a single new thought; no new view of any part of thi,
subject ; no new light in which any point ts placed ti
bat a thorough-paced piece pf plagise-to from first to,
last,and the only mention of the source whence the whole
is taken is made in suck a way as to induce an unin-
formed reader to suppose, that the Register has, there,
all that belongs to it.-I—So mach for this robbery
generally. These thieving 'Squires contrive so to dire
guise their thefts as for it to require some labour, not to
detect them, but to produce such mitigate against them '
as will insure their conviction., Like other thieves,
they take the articles belonging to theft-neighbour and,
mix them np with articles of their own. Like those
thieves that drive another man's sheep into their
own scabby lock, seed then take the whole to market as
their own. Pools as the 'Sqoiret generally are, they',
have usually art enoogh'so to raise op the things that
they nee as for it to be difficult, without greeter labour I
than one is disposed to bestow, 'to sprdluce a' clear eon
victim' for them. Every one that has teed the Register'~
for some years past, coo clearly see that this fellowtwbe
calls himself nouns liege, Empire, has had the, Re.

,Itgare his gootatioaa teat we one shall Are able to say.
Abe are the morels of Me Register. Phloem, we Mel
not to he imposed ere in this sort of way. This fellow
is a downright literary thief, tad we are resolved
to make an example of him; an example which we
trust will save us the trouble of castigating another stu-
pid 'squire or, two, who have long been begging fur a
flogging.—Our readers will bear in mind, that, from the
moment that Peel's bill reached the author of the
Register, who" was then in Long Island, be not only
lointed out the ruinous effects of the Bill ; hut, in a
etter to the Prince Regent, dated on the stb of Septem-
ber, 1819, and published in the Register in London on
the 311th of October, 1819, be pointed out the way, in
which the comrade had been led to deceive itself. He
not only aliened that Mr. Peel and his Committee were
wrong, but spewed at the same time how they had been
led into error by the doctrine of Mr. Hume, (the his-
torian) which doctrine bad been commuMeated to the
Committee by Mr. Baring. This was a very interesting
and very important matter; because it was the very
fbnradation of Me Bill. Mr. Baring brought the doc-
trine of Mr. Bump forward to support his and Ricardo's
notions with regard to the little injnry which the Bill
could produce to the country. The Committee adopted
these notions. The Long Island trashman had, there-
fore, to thew, that Mr. Hume's doctrine, even supposing
it to be sound, did not apply to a case like ours This
was sbewn ; it was clearly showtt in the Register before
mentioned, published in London on the 311th of October,
1819; which Register (by the bye) has undergone two
editions since, and is now to be had in a little collec-
_ .

lion called the Long Island prophecies. After this; and
four years after this, out comes 'Squire Paget with
a pamphlet, addressed to Ricardo, and in this
pamphlet, lie VIPS to work to chew how the
Cononaittec deceived itself by adopting the notions
of Messieurs RICARDO and BAKING; haw the latter its.
troduced to them the doctrine of 'Mr. Home ; and how
the doctrine of dr. Hums did not apply to our case.—All
this hr does with as mach gravity; as much apparent
earnestness, and as much *elf-complacency as fi no ha-
man being had ever before written a rorri spots the sad
subject! To detect and expose impostures of this
description is a ditty that we o" e to the politic. We
take, therefore, first, the passage from the Register abuse
mentioned; and then We place opposite it an extract
front the paitaphletof theSagimartona a• lesek wren as CO
very bad sample of all the scribbling 'Squires tit the age.
It is worth observation, That 41 his letter to Sir FRANCIS
BURDETT, he says, that " Mr. CORNETT is perfectly
" correct when lie states that the depreciation of the cur-
" reney bad commenced SOIDP time Were the year
" Ile then goes on to say, " bnt I.e has no', as
" far as I hare observed, pointed out how this pnzgling
" effect has teken place." Hr mentions the Register
hero, where there was a more detached observation to
twice ; hut he does not mention it, when lie was taking
from it, almost liierally,the original and important oh-
sarvations on the foundation of that grand error which
has led to all the mischief; which oliservaiions were
written the moment the bill reached Long Island, and
were commonicated to the people of England with al-
most as much celerity as if the writer had been, like
'Squire Paget, living in Leicestershire. Here he com-
mits the theft ; here he steals soinetitinz.worili shoaling ;
and fur this we hang him up as an example to other
thieving 'squires. His pamphlet is printed upon eery
tine pap.-. (treat pains has been taken in the printing;
and, as far as it serves to take something from him and
give it to paper-makers and printers, it is of real uti-
Lty. Let him proceed. therefore, now that he is known;
for every penny that he has less, and every penny that
the paper-makers and printers have more, may be con-
sidered a good to the community. From the ahose of
Mr. Paseo Bill, and of Mr. Peet, himself,
we shout, he disposed to think that he has been a pretty '
sufferer from the return to cash payments. A

THE

BROADRRIIII'S TRICKS.
TO TIN SOTTO& OF TOR MAN.

Manchester, October 30.
Stn-1 was talking, last night, with I friends,
on the signs of the times, and I mentioned, as no very
obscure sign, a fact, which had just come to my know.
ledge., and which I am going to take the liberty of corn
mnnicating to yon. Perhaps I should not have thought '
of this commie:lit-alien, if I had not heard my friend re-
tries, a wish that you should be Informed of the fact. It
this: Mr. E. il , of Hope, a noble residence, about
aree miles from Manchester, has received, -this Mi-
chaelmas, from the Steward of his estate, at nitwit,
in Shropshire, the sum of SEVENTY POUNDS, being
the total of his half-yeses income, from tl-at estate, fur
which he gave, a very few years ate, the sum of THIR-
TY THOUSAND POUNDS The estate is one on
which be does not reside, and must, therefore, have berm
turchased because it was considered likely to pry.
I know not what Mr. H. is in politics, but I am sets
is cannot be fool enough not to know something of the
causes by which this real confiscation of his property
has been produced. The first question, therefore, which
irises in one's mind, is, why does he not exert all the
influence he possesses for the purpose of bringing about
a change in the management of the nation's affairs?—
The why is easily stated. This estate. which has thus
been taken from him, forms only eon Item in the list of
his property. He is known to be worth three or four
times as much as the 30,0001., and be Is well known to
have invested, as iris called, all, or a greatitert.oif dew

remaindeein thefunds. Os this he receives Ali interest,
the vainestt which keeps rising as the Tilde of the es-
that keeps falling. Were he city a landlord, the pinch-
legs of agricultural distress would make him bellow
like a bull of Bastian, against the taxes which cadse
that distress; hut he is patient under the operation, for
be feels that it is but the one hand of taxasco taking
shilling from his pocket, while the other hand of taxa-
tion is putting a sovereign in. But why do I talk thus
to you ? I know nothing, Sir, en this subject, bat what
you hare taught me, and 1 can express nothing on this
subject but what you have delivered to the world a him-
deed times, both is the shape of prediction and of
history. •
While the pen is in my hand, and my pope? vet un-
filled, I may as well tell yen something that will pee.
haps be news, relative to your old friend Ifitcoossiwo
listimeastm. BROADIRIM has sent Toned to his toner
',widest* a circular kilts, in which he labour. to poi;
otadstitites his credit on the conclusion, that prices, end
periteelarly those of corn and Cotton, must advance and
sootiess to ad . He•tells that be has lied a survey
taints of the country as to the stock of core it content;
and that the result of this y is, that there is not,
in the wholecountry,more than enough for Mne months'
consumptioo. Having laid this down for fact, be pro-
ceeds, in tree Nicodemus' stile, to ask, how is it passible
that, with this stock grail/ally decreasing, prices should'
either fall, car continue at the low point to which they
have dropped ? Hit story is a pretty loog one, and I
regret that I could not get one of thocireskare to semi
to yew, but this that I have stated Is tbq isbstance of
his retwoolog: • • •1
May we tench:upon the motivesotßaoassints? There
are thousands of canters in the world who cry ost, "you
bare nothing to do with motives; man cannot read bin
fellow's koart." This is either great folly or great by.
pocriaborboth. Why, are there sot innuniereide
amongst men, of which the toadyism& as Miriam ss the,
things themselves are visible ? Aid Is it agreeable to
reason, is it consistent with Justice, that we should epa4
tent ourselves with a mere statemest that web s'inaiMee
.alone sudb an act, when we luso'', that Ake soseiss
actuated biro constitutes tboessesee of
'which the miswrite oar sediment Der e sit:4

He toms then knew, that, afar • bar I
rood ail former b for half a ceutney,k ho not pos-
sible that the country *Maid (so extra bolo being In
operation) have less core than It had dering•late years,
when crops were compatatively poor, sad when thee'
was not, any snore than at present, an importation going
on from other countries. He has sees the pekoe of I
grain keep sinking lower and lower without
ported lot's of the article, to make them dolt
the excess of its quantity; and has be not discovered,
has be not beard, has he not rend, has It not been ram
deed impossible fur him not to know, what the catliteli
which has caused this sighing? Doubtless, be know
will ; and he knows that this same cause has not tel
to exist, but that it is *wive and powerful still, and
continue and increase in activity and power. With than
does he algae that prices mast rise ? Here we isms
again to his motives. BROADS/Ili has in his warehouses
a stock of grain immensely great. This stock is now at
a dreadfully low rate of value, compared to what he
gave for it, or, at least, to what be expected to get for
it. There is no speculation, which tan give him a
chance of profiting by other men's foolery. A thought
crosses the trabckiog soil which is lodged in his huge
and mammoth-like carcase, and he hastens to his
writing-desk to prepare his circulars. He knows that
there is abundance of capital in the hands of blockhead;
who really koow no more of the tenses of low prices,
than he does, from his own practice, of honesty aid
truth. His crafty statements may induce them to eat
their capital a floating for the purpose of boyingsp tors,
audio the temporary monopoly which this will same,
prices may get a lift, and be may get rid of his stock.—
As to the soneeqnences amongst the poor, what does this
temple of the Holy °host, as he by profession calls him-
self; what does he care for them ? He is following after
gain, and io that pursuit he goes on " with a step ss
steady as time, and as appetite as tees as death.',

DIMIDPIR{ ACCI DWI T.—Tuesday morning hat a meet
distressing ralturrence happened at Clifton. near Brie.
tol, by which one of one fellow-creatures was in-
stantly deprived of life, aid several others plaied twos
the verges of destruction. It having beta resolved ii
repair a pimp that stood ever a deep but concealed well,
and which bad not been in use fur upwards of forty
years, situate behind a lodging-house near the Church,
several persons, including the master of the house, were
assembled au the spot, in order to mike the necessary
gements, when one of them stooping down, and
placing his baud upon the atone trough connected with
the pomp, the ground ender him suddenly gave way,
and he was instantly precipitated to the bottom of the
