days before the sth September, 1915. A t that time this
bloody paper called aloud for the destruction, the ac-
tual murder, of a very considerable portion of the peo-
ple of France; and upon the express ground of their
having been jacobies ; and yet it now says that the
landlords are deserving of no pity because they once
called the petitioners for reduction of taxation, jaco-
bins and radicals. Let us now proceed with the Dew
doctrine of this prostituted hag of a newspaper. It
charges the landlords with having tarried unjust laws
in order to stifle the voice of the people. It charges
them with baying made Englishmen give sureties or
go to jail for untried offences. Let as stop here
again. This infamous print did every thing in its
power in 1817 to exaggerate and misrepresent the coo-
duct of the Reformers. It inflamed the public
mind : it filled the people of London with affright,
as to the designs of the poor wretched Spenceans ;
and we repeat. that it actually abused the Govern-
ment ; loaded it with the foulest reproaches for not
dispensing with law and proceeding to military exe-
cution. Every act of severity seemed to come too late
for it. Let its columns of that day he examined, and
the reader's blood will curdle as lie reads. It %vas at
that period that came out in this very Old Times
newspaper, a foal and most detestable attack upon the
most popular and efficient writer in the cause of re-
form ; and (let the public mark it) a recent quarrel be-
twice Stoddart and Walter have brought out the fact
(or at least, Walter's assertion) that the circulation
of that attack was at the expellee of the Government
itself. And this is the paper that now makes it
crime io the landlords for having given their support
to those measures which sent men to jail without
trial, measures which its poisonous columns tended
more strongly to produce than any other circumstance
then existing in the country. Let us proceed now a little
further with the pretest language of this paper of match-
less Nepal:rich addresses the landlords in the following
vulgar and brutal manner " But stop ; soft and fairly,
" gentleinen ; let as look full in your faces if you
" please: and now, we think you hare been is court
" before." Then it proceeds to ask them if they are
sot those who volu d for the war, and who pro-
mised to spend their last shilling and the last drop of
their blood.—Yes, thou old prostituted mother Cole,
they might, but who can tell but they were of thy se-
duction ? During the whole of the French war, did
you not cry war of extermination ? And, as to the
last American war, that coat us seventy millions, were
you not the great and constant trumpeter ? Did you
not, in an article some few days prior to the sixth July,
1814, say that there was no compromise with Ame
ries ; that the " arch conspirators of whom Maddison
was the ostensible sod Jefferson the real head, must
" be cut off; that it was idle to talk of disputing with
them about principles; that they must be crusif d to
" atoms; that we had then to do with America alone,
" sod that we ought to strike while the iron was hot."
Did you not say, in an article about three weeks pre-
vious to ibis, that the American Government mutt Le
destroyed ; sad that there was no safety fur regular
Government in Europe while this example of success-
ful democratic rebellion was suilered to exist ?-I.et

STATISMAS.

LONDON:
MON DAT lIISIIINII, JUN II 10, 1844.

STOCK EXCIIANGK, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

There is not much business doing. The report
published on Saturday of Peace between the Russians
am& Turks being finally settled is mach discredited on
Change ; as it is thought if it was true, the Conti-
nental Powers would have no occasion for a Congress
at Florence. The idea of intelligent persons is that
some preliminary articles to prevent the effusion of
blood have been proposed by the mediating parties to
the Porte and adopted. But the final settlement of
the disputes will be left to the Congress. Indeed
the Market proves the beat criterion. for Consols are
13011 for the Account ; and Reduced 794 e• Letters
from Odessa, received this morning, to the 15th ult.
are silent in every respect as to the affairs of Russia
and Turkey.

MOST HORRIBLE DEPRAVITY.

Amoogs: the " signs of the times," and particu-
larly as applicable to the case of the unfortunate land-
lords, is a case of most horrible depravity which has
just met our eyes in the conduct of a Laotian News-
paper, which, when we say it has long been hacksied
in the way. of prostitation, we need not name the Old
Tines, a thing which, though like an old billeted keeper
