that colouring to public events, which they know to
be most acceptable to their superiors in the regions of
corruption. The hierarchy, when, in prosecuting their
own unjustifiable views of aggrandisement, their sew
sures have occasioned public feuds, and they ►egin to
dread the punishment which their misdeeds have me-
rited, are ready to cry oet, that " the throne is in
-danger." Corporations, whose selfishness has aided to
plunge a nation into every species of misery and dis-
tress, when the period of re-action arrives, affect to
disclaim all feeling for themselves, and proclaim aloud
their " apprehensions for the down, and the altar."
They do this merely to set a face npon their own ma-
lignant designs : for, if both the throne and the altar
were overthrown, it is not such overthrow which they
would bemoan, but the loss of their own aspiring
hopes; " like those captive women, whom the poet
notes in his Iliad to have bewailed the death of Pa-
troclus in outward show, hut, indeed, their own con-
dition." Nay, the measures of these partits, in the
pursuit of their own selfish views, hAve, in • short
time, done more towards bringing the throne and the
altar into danger, than could possibly be effected in
ages, by all the efforts of all their open and avowed
enemies, of which I am persuaded there are not half a
dozen of individuals to be found in the whole nation.
I wonid not be understood to say that the hiersreby,
or the corporations, are gratuitously, or upon princi-
ple, enemies of the throne and the altar ; but that
they are so in effect, and for their own selfish pu►-
poses. Like Pope Paul IV., they would rather seethe
four quarters of the world on fire, than abandon one
iota of their usurped privileges.

and character " The green's Female risiterg," which
has reflected considerable honor on the sail visitors,
and alto on her Majesty, was nein+ as SOW "of

apprehem ; and as espial justice and the public voice
alike densaud, Coat a similar opportunity should be
given to prone that the. King's Visitors are equally

humbly rem 444444 end : first, that, as it is unusual to
drag Ladies from domestic privacy into the public
gaze, unaccompanied by lientlemen ; the male be in•
trodnred with the female visitors; and, secondly, that
as the King's visitors are far more minmerous than time
(ueen's, and the private history of many of them far
more eventful, that only a part of the visitors be treat-

E.IST-INDIA-HOUSE.

Yesterday a Quarterly Oeneral Court of Proprietors
W 3.1 held at the Past-India-house, for the purpose of
taking into consideration a variety of business.

ANNUAL At COUNTS.

The Cit %IR !( ssi informed the Court, that the pa-
pers front Ifengal, which were necessary to make up
the annual accounts, had not yet arrived. These ac-
counts were not, therefore, in that state of preparation
in which they ought to be at this period of the year.
Certainly much blame was imputable to the officers
abroad for this neglect ; and, as the by-law imposed a
penalty of dismissal for neglect in transacting aceouats,
the necessary orders were transmitted to India, re-
quiring proper eNplanation, and enjoining more de-
spatch in future.—(Hear.)
Mr. Hums hopes) that, if necessary, an example
should be made to enjoin future a•tention to so neces-
sary a part of the official business ul their servants

it is a companion to the popular Volume describing the Hun-

being of more pleasing character, the Volume is proportion-

ABUNDANT thowtsr IN AMERICA.

(From the New York Papers last reetgred.)
Acrounts from various sections of oar country repre-
sent the harvest for all kinds of grain and segytable, to
he very abundant. We learn from 111 Ohio papii- of ti r
Imth aJnly, that the farms thoughout Ohio are, teernin::
with altunaance. The crops of wheat are very great.
and of a most excellent qnality; indeed they ate
heavy and extensive, that it is apprehended some of it
will perish on the ground for want of labourers to sell!,
it. Seperline Flour has been sold in Cincinnati for
25 per barrel, in good mo.ley. The paper above spoken
of recommends the fa -tners to increase their stock of
cattle to help to devour the grain ; and ¶notes the
maxim, " he that multiplies cattle spins gold.

_
On Monday last, being the charter day for the elec•
tion of the Corporate Officers for the borough of 1.:a1.-
rhester, a very severe struggle took place between the
blue and orange interests, when the latter prevailed
by a considerable majority, and immediately filled up
the important offices of Mayor, Magistrates, Coroner-,
Claviers, and Town Serjeants, for the year ensuing.—
It is nearly a century since the Corporation were de-
feated in these appointments. Mr. Harvey was pre-
sent, and with Mr. Baring, gave pubiic entertain-
ments to the Burgesses. This victory is considered by
the independent party as decisive of the twe seats in
their favour whenever a general election occurs.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' CO UR T.—FittbAr.

The Court sat again this day in the Justice Hall,
Old Bailey. William Alinibray was brought up for
the judgment of the Court. He had been strongly op-
posed on the preceeding day, on the ground of his
having incurred much expense by his unnecessarily
entering into a defence at law of the debt, and filing
a bill in Chancery, on which he obtained an injune-
ticn, but which was afterwards dissolved by the Lord
Chancellor; a most satisfactory answer having been
put on the files of the Court. The Commissioners hav-
ing heard Counsel on both sides respecting the insol-
vent, thought it their duty to consider the case fur
one night before giving judgment.
This morning the Chief C ~,,, missioner delivered the
jthigtuent of the Conti. Ile observed, that after a
dispassionate and candid consideration of the case,
the Court were unanimously of opinion, that the tiling
of this bill in equity by the insolvent, was on a most
frivolous and vexatious ground, which merited severe
animadversion. In consideration, however, of the
length of time lie had been imprionctl, the Court
would only gi►e hint six months more, to he computed
trim the filing of the petition. and therefore he was
accordingly adjudged to six months' imprisonment.

STATE OF IRELAND.

Extracteem the Waterford Agricultural Report,
rztending through the counties of Waterford, Tippe-
r-ry, Kilkenny, and Wexford .—We remark with Lois-
t.ction that Ireland continues generally in a state of
t•antptillity, particularly the respective counties which
now represent. There are, however, a few, very
f-w exceptions, namely, a small number of petty rob-
beries, and one glaring,. atrocious and diabolical act
which has lately occurred in the County Waterford.
We allude to the borniag of a respectable farmer's
house at night, when it seemed to lie the mere good-
ness of Providence that fiisserved a large family from
being communed in thelames. It is said that the al-
leged cause of thiciralicious outrage was, that the
farmer bad taken loose unoccupied land whirls had
been quietly surrendered by an insolvent tenant. It
should be thw,lntecest of ill peaceable timers who
wish Set MP Incur, bet to guard against additional tax,

of ate is i.e. lie assured the gentlenson of the Livery,
that notwithstanding lir triumphant appeal that had
here made to them on the state of the poll by the can-
didates who hail previously addressed them. still he ap-
peared before them with complete confielenee of 1116i:sate
settees.. So far, indeed, from being in the slightest de-
gree surprised at the situation I. held on that lay's poll.
~e was only surprised that his adversaries had not sac-
reeded better. and that they did nit stand higher.—
(Cheers.)—On some • iterruptiou occurring on the hust-
ings. he said. be hoped that he should not he interrupted
Sy gentlemen in future; if such interruption were ron-
blood, he should m‘ive that soranzers be excluded front
b. hustings. It was a matter to hint of great regret that
trey candidate was not allowed to obtatio a fair hearing.
With respect to himself, he knew his friends, consider-
rvg the smooth's which hr held yesterday, were hulditig
tisek upon the supposition—an erroneous supposition—
that be w.ss in a state of seem-its% On the last election,

a reserve of 1,1 M/ voters hail held hark till the two lasi
. days, an I the gentlemen of the Livery knew what so ail-
santaireous tnru that reserve bad given to that election
and to the cause of freedom. He had mans• to advise
with, who knew the manner in whirls an election ought
to be conducted; and as the management of the reserve
was cisubiled to INs committee, his friends ought to trust
to them and to push forward witl t t 'king ■oy notice
of what Wed be wanted at the close of the poll. Ile
had the best snpport be could wish for. and such as gave
Lim nu mum to despair of ultimate sorcess. Ilia friends
atieuded front public principle, and were too influenced
by interested motives. His troops were volunteers,
while thew of the other side were press-gangs. Ile
had the tidiest confident, of success ; for he dill not
r►eollrrt any instance in whirl. the poll hail been Chid
tip so slowly as on the present occasion. They hail seen
a great number of voters pressed hinter') by their ad-
versaries that day, who, if they hail po•sess•sl any confi-
dence in their ir nowt's, woolsi have heels kept barb for
iron• days longer. He had one mzeestion to propose to
his friends: it was. that they should, ' ',lately on
leaving the Hall, meet together in their respective dis-
tricts, and encourage each other to muse forward as early
as possible to give their suffrages. All that he should
now do would he to thank them for the support they
had already given bins, and to rorolsr.oge them not ah
relax in their exertions, which was all tent was tics:es-
says' to snake their ph r ;dew and effeetual.
The Meeting then dispersed. Aldermen Wood and
Thorp, on leaving the Hall, were roeognizeil, and
I Ilv cheered liv the populace, who, on their getting
into A iderimin ti carriage, tool• old the horses, and
proceeded to draw the two candidates to their respective

CIIIIIST.H.IS DAY.

[FrOM Tile OURLIN EVENING rosy.]
It has biog. been the custom, and we hope it will con-
tinue to be tue castum of the Irish periodical press, not
to publish ou Christmas-day. We sl.all, willingly, leave
a violation of this, the almost only remaining holiday.
to the .tb:nking and religious folk who conduct tlik
newspapers of England. From peculiar circumstances.
The L'aritiag Nat and l'he Patriot (with the exeeption
of the Weekly Papers) were the only Journals which.
for the purpose of not violating a custom held -.acred so
long amongst u% printed on the preceding Friday.
doing so, we believe we did not displease the public, nor
any anthoritv, civil or religions. Nay, we believe we
not violate the provisions of any Act of Parliament. A
Joitrnal, however, printed in this city, which would be
a disgrace to the press of Jagganaut, if they bad a press
there, and which, as far as its influence got:s, is a dis-
grace to the Irish Government, withobt whose aid it
could not for one week—has invoked tile assis once
of informer, for the purpose of visiting us with penal
tie% tar the alleged violation of the provisions of a Slam)
Art. -As this rug is likely to get into the hands of
few, even of that respectable order of the a otuniunity, we
shall cony a part of the paragraph. reconiniending it r

for wli;ell lie is not registered to do so, any inforwat

and wisich penalty the Commissioners cannot refuse
inflict or abate.'
Now, if we hail, in our intention to avoid violating the
most starred of Christian festivals, innocently violated
the provisions of an Act of l'arlament, in a case neither
injurious to the r^, venue nor trenching on public micro-

lIANg!OX-110lltr.

A novel and interesting ease with revert to the deli-
very of parcels, was investigates! at this office yesterday.
The porter of the lierarda Hall Inn lon, Husing-lane,
was summoned to answer the complaint of U. Coward,
rm. of Walworth, for the non-deliver) and loss of a par-
cid. 31r. ftibhin, the proprietor of the coach-office (who
is also a Common Councilman), attended himself to an-
slyer the co:nplaint.
Mr. Coward stated, that early in December last he re-
e:ived intimation of the dispatch' of a parcel from Tiver-
ton, Devon, which *as to arrive by the coach from
thence to the Castle and Falcon, Aldersgate-street. The
parcel, which contained two turkeys, two geese, two
fowls, a pair of ducks, a wild duck, a brace of wood-
cocks, a brace of partridges, a hare, and other articles
of game, was to reach London on the 9th ult. lie (com-
plainant), went on that day to the Castle and Falcon.
as well as on several subsequent days, but could learn
no tidings of the parcel. Ile in cinisequence wrote to his
friend.: in Devonshire, and at loot' after niu..ll delay and
difficulty. discovered that hit par-el, inste;yl ui coating
direct by a coach to the Castle ati,l Falcon, 11.. d been
brunyht by another to Herrarirs Itall Inn, and from
thence sent to the iap of the former phii.e. Here he
discovered it upon the ?.3d ult. Ira the contents were
wholly spoiled, and tivless. Ilia co. 'plaint against the
defendant was. that he bail delivered the pared at the
tap, instead of the coacii-ofliee of the Castle and Falcon.
Mr. Dibbin said, that beside the circumstance of his
porter being engage'', he was most anxious himself to
attend iu justifteatiou of Ids establishment. It was a
rule, not only with himself, bat the trade generally, not
to keep parcels in their officeilirected " until called for,"
unless they arrived liv their own coaches. Ihe parcel
in question, therefore, was forwarded without loss of
time, after its arrival, to the Castle and Falcon, as di-
rected, and his port, r had left it in what Le considered
world be the right place. lie much regretted the loss
tvleii hail been erea,ioned ;o toward, but lie COll.
shirred his own conilt.,:t strictly legal, independent of
retail', he conteteliid, that the einintlaint itseit insist fail,
not havinr, h-eu pr,ferred within the tine (14 days)
limited by the Act of Parliament.
The Limo 3:sviet cosuinisserated Mr. Coward upon
the very disaster which had befiden his larder,
and thong lit that the porter of Mr. had acted
extremely W:•,:ng in leaving the parcel a. the tap of the
Castle avid Falcon. insta•ail of the coach-mhee. lie must,
however, say, that the conduct of Mr. Dibbin in coming
forward omit' the present occasion, vas nowt praise-
worthy, however he sin ;;ht be affected by the conduct of
the porter.
• Mr. Dibhin a.,rain repeated the conduct of his porter
was correct. The tap, coach-olbee, and other depart.

GODtriirs ANSWER TO MALTRCS.
[The reasoning of Mr. Malthus, as must have been
understood from the article we inserted yesterday, pro•'
eectis spun the assumption of certain ratios of *tease
in population and in the means of subsistence. In the
work of Mr. biodwin. a dissertation has appeared from
the pest of a a►adjutor, Mr. David Booth, which very
successfully contends against the basis on which the
boasted system of Malthus had been founded.)

be acknowledged, is meeting his ative:sary fairly in
