NnTrape Reform in Enyland.

Used ministerial reform In Parliament. Manchester
* the centre of commerce, of manufactures, olthe
whole railroad system, and particularly OF reform
It's spirit is felt IN all progressive measures.
This meeting, for intelligence, energy. activity
and resolution, was worthy of such spirit, but it
lacked the courage to demand the full extent Of
human nights.
Here are its five points:
The extension of the suffrage to euery occupier Of
a tenemenf. or parton u a tenement
, Vote by ballot.
3. Trenuial Paraments.
(. more equal apportlonment Of members to
s. The abolition of the property qualification.
Cne of the speakers-he speaker-Mr. ". J.
Fox. abiding to the feebeness of his voice in
face of such an assembly, said -" But one voice
has many echoes 1t is always SO when that one
voice. however feeble tells some great TRUTH
asserts some noble right which belongs to human
nature"
This Is an eloquent sentiment, and II would be
a noble one, if applicable That it is not 50 here
is be deeply regretted on behalf OF that same
human nature. In its present application 1t Is
only cant. unless indeed II be conceded
that the rights OF brick and mortar and the
rights of human nature are identical, and
tina; men, with human faces and human
faculties, human imelligences and Divine
soul are not entitled TO human rights, be-
cause brick houses are not a share OF them
These gentlemen have demanded measures OF
relief. not OF right. We wish them success. Blu
had they taken the broad, enduring and lmmutat
bic ground of right, they would have a. good
a chance. and higher claim to success.

Tie Lnionfotcn PA Democrat. speaking OF the
power of fascination attributed 10 snakes, says -
1.-Two gentlemen OF this vicinity, descending the road
10 the OhiOpe Falls Of the lOugh River, few days
ago discovered a grey squirrel sitting IN the middle
OF the road At the side OF the road lay large black
snake The squirrel seemed TO be perfectly stupid
made r o effort to escape The snake approached It
so cautiously and slowly that no motion was per-
ceptble, exec pt by evident gradual dlmnutlon Of
the distance between them. Al length the snake
reached the squrTel-paSSng It's mouth over lis head
as # licking II. for the purpose OF covering Il with
slime of saliva. This done. then II commenced s~al-
lowing it-when the gentleman Killed both the snake
and the squirrel
70 The above reminds us very forcibly
of the game which Chatfield & Co. are now
irving on the friends of the Speedy En-
largement of the Canals. If the West can
be supplied and fascinated as this poor
squirrel was. the Canals are overheard for
the next ten years. But surely the slime
of Chatfeld's saliva must suffice to dispel
any such bewilderment as is medltated,
Judging from its quality as exhibited in his
leeai opinions last Winter and Spring. We
have a confident hope that the snake alone
will get Knocked in the head, and the squir-
rel escape to wonder at his momentary OBJ
fuscation and the audacity of its contrivers.
