THE COMMITTEE fo r supei intend'ni; the Erec- i- tion of GLYN T FF (\ i'.WB RIDG E) CHURCH, are compelled to make a further appeal to Christian benevolence; for this appeal they will briefly state the reasons. The ground for the Church was the gift of B. Hall, Esq., M. P. It was supposed from the nature of the soil, not only that a sure foundation would he gained, hut that stone sufficient for the building would be pro- cured. In this expectation the Committee were disap- pointed. and a quarry was opened at an additional cost of £ 200. The Contract was scarcely signed when ma- terials and labour advanced 10 per cent, causing a further expence of £ 200. The objects for which funds are now required are, making the approaches to the Church, building a boundary wili-and securing the congrega- tion from the danger and inconvenience of damp, by a warm air apparatus. The first stone was laid in September of last year, the Church will be ready for consecration in November next. On this simple statement of facts, the Committee feel assured that the Christian hh. ratify which enabled them so speedily to commence the work and carry it on thus far, will not fail them for its completion.

(renin tli ji'orning Herald.) The proper work of the Whig Radicals is destruction. They can pull down, but they cannot build up; they can destroy, but they cannot construct; they arc in the political world what the Vandals of old were in the world of art and science-blind, fierce, and insatiable destroyers. Not only do they raven for the opportunity to root up from its foundations our ancient constitution, admired as it has been by the greatest and wisect of men of all nations as the noblest work of civil polity that human wisdom ever constructed—not only do they raven, we say> f°r the opportunity to pull down and utterly subvert this unrivalled work, which a generous patriotism raised and dedicated to enlightened liberty, but they actually demand the abolition of that specimen of Whig statesmanship which they used to call the second Magna Charta of England—we mean the Reform Act. The Whig Radicals would rather destroy the work of their own hands than not be engaged in destruction of some sort. We recollect when we gave great offence to the Whig Radicals by saying that we thought the Bill of Rights, or perhaps even the Habeas Corpus Act, was more deserving of being called the second great charter of England, than the Reform Act. But that was at the time of the senseless outcry of those very Whig Radicals for the Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill." We also incurred the displeasure oc. the admirers of the absolute perfection" of that act, by describing its machinery as complicated, clumsy, and ill-contrived, which we did repeatedly, while supporting the principle of the Bill a far as it went to restore to the country a real representation, the conduct of the boroughmongers, both Tory and Whig, in the measure of unqualified Roman Catholic emancipation, having, beyond every- thing else, proved the neces-ity of parliamentary reform, in order that the sentiments of the people should have due consideration in the people's house, and that their petitions should not be treatf.d with scorn and ridicule, as the Protestant petitions were ticated by the nominees of the boroughmongers on that occasion. If the Whig-Radicals only wanted an amendment of the complicated, absurd, and most inefficient registra- tion-machinery of the act, so as to prevent electors being harrassed, as they now are, by persons objecting to any number of voters, or to the whole lists, on the specula- tion that some cannot or will not he present to support their franchise ;if it was also their desire to obviate the facilities which exist under the act for fictitious per- sonations of voters dead or abroad ;-if they were anxious that a provision should be introduced to give representation to the great mass of property which still remains unrepresented ;-if they wished to substitute some more rational and efficient mode of ascertaining and recording the claims of bona fide electors than the present registration courts, with their conflicting deci- sions, and the contention and turmoil of their annual excitemeiit-iyi these, and some other points of detail, we could go along with them, notwithstanding they were indignant when we ridiculed the silly cry of "the bill, the whole bill, and nothing but the bill." But when we consider the immense price at which the country has purchased the Reform Act—when we consider that it cost nearly a revolution to carry, and that we have scarcely yet recovered from the effects of the disturbance which it caused to the industry and regular pursuits of the people of this manufacturing and commercial coun- try, we cannot, to please the Whig Radicals, or any other party, consent to throw away all that was pur- chased at that great cost by assisting them to repeal the Reform Act, according to the prediction of Sir Robert Peel, or to pass such measures affecting the representa- tive system as would be tantamount to the repeal. We would even go the length of co-operating with them to cut away those ten or a dozen snug nomination boroughs which the "reform ministers" preserved for themselves or connections out of tne general wreck of the proprie- tory system but, beyond this, we advise them to make up their minds to be content "ith their second iMagna Charta for along time to come. The industrious people of this country cannot afford a revolutionary movement every seen years to test the practical value of Whig- Radical experimr.iits, upon the best constitution in the world. Mr O'Connell's coarse and vulgar appeals are in full play again. How the wretched dupes to his chicanery and bombast are written and talked out of the money which they have net got in order to support him, his family, and his followers, it is difficult to ascertain; but the folly and credulity of human nature are proverbial, and when that folly and that credulity are operated upon by the intemperate, and unceasing, and tyrannical efforts of the Popish Priesthood, the riddle is solved. H owever, the case of this Agitator is not without its precedent—and that amongst the Romans too; Casca, he who struck the first blow at the Constitution of the empire in the person of Cæsar, did the same thins, at least, according to the text of Shakspeare, upon which we are infinitely more disposed to rely, than upon that of Dan's and his coadjutors. Shakspeare makes Antony say, in alluding to the bloody overthrow of the -noblet man That ever lived in the tide of times," I and to the rapacity and villany of his most envenomed destroyer, See what a KENT the envious Casca, made." This line, althou rh it affords an example to the present Agitator, proves also the similarity of his pursuits and propensities to those of his liberal predecessor.—John Bull. SPAIN.-The frontier correspondence which we have received from our agents at Bayonne and elsewhere in the Western Pyrenees, teems with details of the late brilliant action between the corps of General O'Donnell and the Carlists on the line of Tolosa, Andoain, and other Carlist positions in Guipuzcoa. It seems that the poor wretches who have been cajoled into continuing their services as British Legionaries on the Queen's promise to pay, bore the chief brunt of the Carlists' attack, having to defend the principal points of Andoain whilst their Christino colleagues ran away. General O'Donnell is said to have o-ved his personal escape to a Captain Clarke, of the Legion, two hundred of whom remained prisoners, whilst the streets of the little town they attempted to defend were strewed with their dead bodies. Several officers of high rank are also amongst the prisoners and on the evening of the 14th, on which day the attack was made, several hundred more prison- ers were made, consisting of mixed Legionaries and Christinos, who had barricaded themselves in the church of Andoaift, but who were forced to surrender at discretion. We are happy te hear that General Uranga, who commanded in this affair, has pledged himself to treat his prisoners with humanity. The booty captured, consisting of muskets, ammunition, equipages, Sec., is ^very great, and we consider this blow as all but fatal to he Queen's cause in these provinces. It is much to be lamented that a battalion of our brave but mis- employed marines, has again been disembarked for action on the Cantabrian coast. Surely some steps wil] be taken by Parliament to put a stop to this desecration of our flag. A subsequently dated letter, of the 12th, from Zubiri, in Navarre, states that the Queen's regi- ment of Seguenza had shown strong symptoms of an organized mutiny, and that Iriarte, in consequence. would be obliged to retire from the line of Valcarlos and another letter from Pamoluna, of the lltli, repre- sents matters there to be still in a state of anarchy and confusion, emigration proceeding even to the very- dregs of the population and those who are unable to fly suffering under the tyranny of the mob-elected junta, composed of mutinous sergeants and democrats.- Morning Paper. Bombay papers of the 17th of June furnish further details of the havoc caused by the hurricane of the 15th, which is stated to have been the severest that had visited Bombay in the memory of man." The wind, which was north-east in the morning, freshened up in the afternoon, and veered round to south and south-east when it gradually increased to a terrific gale. The shipping in harbour drove from their moorings, ran foul of each other, and several were earned on shore. The scene when the g»le abated a hulc ls described to have been truly calamitous. The bay was covered with bales of cotton and the wrecks of boats and ships. In the back hay the dead ware V -^hed out of their graves and floated about the shore. The roofs of houses were torn off and trees blovrn down. There was scarcely a dry house on the island, and goods to a great amount were de- stroyed in the warehouses. Such was the fury of the tempest that the lighthouse, strongly built as it is, tot- tered on its base and seemed momentarily on the point ef falling. The officer in charge was blown off his legs, and the copper roof of the powder magazine forced off entire, and pitched on the roof of an adjoining guard- room, which was completely demolished. The roofs of some of the terraces were carried away, and might be sean floating along the wind as if (says the account) f' they had been but mere pullicat handkerchiefs,"

MERTHYR TYDVIL, SATURDAY,…
MERTHYR TYDVIL, SATURDAY, Sept. 30, 1837 -> Everything seems to combine againet the Cabinet. Their domestic policy has utterly (ailed,-the Elections have declared to them the national conviction that it bus failed. In the Counties of England and Wales they have against them a mnj;>rity of63. No cunning can rail this seal off the bond the Counties declare the sense of the most influential body of the nation—the landed properly of England. No Ministry has ever stood against this, and 110 Ministry ever can. If opposition desire to drive thelll into the exile which Ihey have earned, they now fly for rellitre tt, the Irish Papists as the clown flies to the tree in the tempest. The shelter will lie the same—it draws (lown the flash that extinguishes both. The attempt to bear down the force of English opinion by the insolence of Irish corruption, must inevitably be fatal. To make it succeed England must have surren- dered its independence, for England would then live by the will of Ireland and the nation that lives by the will of another is already a slave. The English Legislature may be degraded by the Reform Bill; b.it if it has not altogether lost the sense of national dignity, it must resist with utter ."corn the attempt to annihilate its juris- diction by the influence of the Irish priesthood. The old expedient of the tyrant, to punish the living by linking him to the dead, may be realized with double bitterness by such a con- junction, for the chain which bound the English Legislature to the Irish Priesthood would link it, not to passive decay, but to active evil not merely to the corpse, but to the corpse tenanted by a new spirit-vivid with inveterate malig- nity. If Lord Melbourne directly and distinctly shall be compelled to shew at the opening ot Parliament that his dependence rests upon his hired banditti from Ireland, he is undone. No Su11 a 11 surrounded by hig Janizaries ever had reason to expect a shorter reig-n; if he escapes the national wTath he will be bowstringed by his body guard. The foreign policy of the Cabinet now adds its disasters to their ill fortune at home. It has in the two kingdoms of the Continent, which were pre-eminently British Allies by ancient habits, national interests, and gratitude for na- tional deliverance, broken up that alliance. In Portugal the Queen, in her unpopularity, pays the penalty of our unhappy protection. In ipain the nation disgusted by the hypocrisy of our Statesmanship has been taught to despise the character of our valour. We contend against the rightful King and contend against him by means which expose us to perpetual disgrace. We contend for the usurping govern- ment, and contend for it by means which expose us to the ridiculc of Europe. Thus we contrive o spend our money and our blood in a contest, with which we have declared that we have no concern; to suffer the waste of war while we affect to beat peace, and to be beaten wherever a British uniform is seen, by an enemy, whom Lord Palmerstou is commissioned to pronounce in Parliament, the fastest friend we have in the world. The wretched consummation liai already arrived, the remnants of the British Legion are utterly destroyed thus the project of neu trality has ended like every other project of the Cabinet, in personal disgrace and national suf- fering: but the results are most melancholy. Mercenaries as the Legion were, and engaged 111 a cause in which every shot they fired was in act ol criminality, they still were men—and Uritish men. The accounts of the havoc of their last field are dreadful, and all the harvest that we have reaped is in the corpses of a crowd of as gallant fellows as ever brea bed, festering on the hills of Spain. That they fought like lions is acknowledged—that they were betrayed by their Spanish comrades is equally ackn-Jwledged and all the recompence we have for the loss of our unfortunate brothers in name and blood, 18 that tbey died with their faces to the enemy, what texture the heart of the Eoreign Secre- tury may be we cannot conjecture but if it be like the heart of other men, every liore oi II must at this moment be billed with remorse, for the feeble, short-sighted, shuffling policy which "o a iie%v event in the history of national misfortune, out whilst we are. thus wasting our strength in warring on our friends in ti.e South, we are an criminally negligent in not controlling the pro- jects of our enemies in the North. the L>rtts.sh fleet is displaying its vah ur against the row-boats of Valencia aild Catalonia, and :ji i'i.sii mariners take the field ago inst the pedlars and muleteers of ;'he iVninsubt, Russia is fili:il),, lici- for war,— fortifying those dock-yards till they form so many (Jibraltars,—launching a fleet in the hlack Sea. where we have not a frigate, and covering the Baltic with an armament of six and twt-nty sail of the line, manned 1% It .1 thousand sailors, and equal to the emi aikalion of fifty thousand soldiers.

In the course of a few months bis purpose may he developed.

The march to India is the I)i r!)etii(ii threat; the seizure of the -\lediterram an, aud the vassalage of the kingdom of Greece, are all ,blows.ailllt'd against the supremacy of England. So niuch for our foreign policv, and thus with discontent at home and disaster ah road already sentenced by the great force of English opinion, and Ihrown into disgrace bv 'oreign defeat, the Ministry have to meet the Parliament. Shall we stlifer tli(!iyi to P,,ick iii(- JLiry and defy the Law, or shall we not drive their Popish hire- lings out of Court, and deal with them by the unadulterated justice of England ?

London gossip, \ve perceive, is beginning to amtlse itself with Lord Melbourne again. But it holds that he flies at higher game than has been his custom. e leave these intricate affairs to keener speculators. But bis Lordship's sudden passion for equestrianism, his constant displays III file tra;ii of tlke Coiirt, and Ille perperual appearance of his name at the Roval dillner table, are evidences of his sudden respect for Royalty, which surprise those most who know most of his Lordship. It is true that he is a widower; that he is not much above sixty, that he is unencumbered with a family, and that he is known to regard himself as by no means beyond the age of captivation. But, to pass from personal considerations, political eti- quette demands whether there is not something extraordinary in (his close connexion of the Cabinet with the Court. The Irish Papists have declared that, the Queen is their own. MrShiel, the most candid of the Tail, and the most blun- dering in his candour, had" the folly to declare that her Majesty writes Election squibs under pretence of panegyrics on Lord Mulgrave. We have too much respect for her Majesty's good sense to believe that she has ever done ativ such thing; but we know that the weakest animals are always the most crafty, and that a consump- tive Cabinet, would he rejoiced to purchase a week's additional existence by an artifice at once worthy of their weakness and characteristic of their despair- That Lord Melbourne may force hirus: If into the ;!oyal presence is perfectly con- ceivable; that he may measure himself with a Mortimer or a Spencer, and may even conceive that with the morals of a Charles II. he tins the captivation, is equally probable But these are matters that must rest in his own bosom. It is his obvious policy to impress on the public mind at tiiis critical moment that he is in the confidence of the Queen. It is our belief that this confidence is wholly ¡,is faeetiolls L()rdship's own di!overy. True the Queen is surrounded with his depend- ents—a cir le of impoverished Whig women of rank have been appointed to save her Majesty from the embarras of solitude, and from that circle the Premier will meet no rebuke. Still we see in the rumours of the Conrt nothing but the effrontery of the Minister-

The difference between vegetables so treated and those watered in the usual way, is verv conspicuous. Vegetable marrow in common mould", when this process has been applied, has been found to surpass plants grown in a bed of dung. The pm ir- tioll of soda used is one pound to fourteen gallons of waler.-Ib J, Attempts are now making to extend the cultivation of the cranberry, so as to furnish a certain and regular supply to the London markets. It is said that £ :() or J?3» worth of the berries are sold by the poor people each market-day, for fiveor six weeks together, in the town of Longtown, on the borders of Cumber- land. here is one strong argument in favour of land. There is one strong argument in favour of their cultivation, which is, that they will grow with little trouble in places and soils where few other plallts will thrive. Tiiey also possess the advantage of withstanding carriage to a distance from the spot where tuey are reared. The American cranberry is more productive than the English, but has not so good a fl:tvour.-T,ic Gardener's Gazette.
