SWANSEA, FRIDAY, JULY 9. £ 3" Tbe complaint of "A Visiroa" should be made to the "higher powers."

"—; 388 :— Sir C. Cole has announced his intention of withdrawing from the representation of the County of Glamorgan. His address appears in another part of our paper. With the reasons of the Hon. Member for this determination we are unacquainted, but we may safely say his retirement will be much regretted by the majority of the freeholders of the county, of whose interests he was ever a readv advocate. Several candidates to supply his place have been named to us, but at present, we believe, all is conjecture. Lord James Stuart, the Member for the Glamorganshire Boroughs, again offers himself as a Candidate for the suffrages of the Electors, and is likely to be returned without opposition. The Hon. Member for Breconshire, Col. Wood, comes forward, the seventh time, a Candidate for the honour of repre- senting that county, and is also expected to be re-elected without opposition. The Hon. Member's address is given in another column. The Hon. Rice Trevor, the Member for Carmarthenshire, has addressed the freeholders of the county, announcing his in- tention of again soliciting their support at the ensuing election, and it is confidently affirmed will be returned without opposition. His address appears in another column. A meeting of the friends of Mr. Jones, the Member for the Borough of Carmarthen, took place on Wednesday se'nnight, when they unanimously determined to enable the Hon. Member to resume his seat in the British Senate free of all expense. The ceremony of proclaiming King William the Fourth took place at Cardiff'on Tuesday last, and went off in a manner highly gratifying to all those in the procession, and also to the numerous groups of elegantly dressed females who were as- sembled from all quarters to witness so unusual a spectacle.- The Staff of the Royal Glamorgan Militia, with their excellent Band, and the Eastern Division of Yeomanry Cavalry, under the commandof Major Rickards, were in attendance, and contributed by their presence wery much to the pageantry of the day. The Bailiffs, Corporation, and respectable inhabitants intend cele- brating the event by dining together the first convenient opportu- nity after the interment of his late Majesty. On the 6th instant his Majesty King William the IVth was proclaimed at Merthyr Tydvil, amidst a concourse of up- wards of 2000 people assembled on the occasion. The Procla- mation was read by John Bruce Bruce, Esq., of Duffryn, and several gentlemen, and about 200 of the most respectable inhabitants of Merthyr and its vicinity walked in procession through the streets to hear the King proclaimed, which was done with excellent effect and every manifestation of joy by the people.—Upwards of 50 gentlemen met at dinner, at the Castle-Inn, where Col. Bruce presided, and several loyal toasts were drank, amongst which were—" King William the IVth, and may he be a blessing to his people, and thereby produce the greatest happiness to himself," —"The Electors of Great Britain, and may they exercise their invaluable privileges in furtherance of civil and religious liber- ties, &c. &c. The chairman retired at ten o'clock, but the company did not separate until a late hour, and in the course of the evening they were amused with several speeches and songs. His Majesty King William the IVth was proclaimed at Fishguard, Pembrokeshire, on Saturday, with the accustomed formalities, and the ceremony was hailed with the enthusiastic acclamations of a large concourse of people.—After it was con- cluded, a great number of the inhabitants met at the market-place, where they were regaled with cwrw da,, and drank the health of their new sovereign with four times four.—Several other ap- propriate toasts relative to the accession of his Majesty to the throne were proposed, and drank with great applause. At Monmouth the proclamation took place on Friday, amidst a splendid procession of the inhabitants, and the worthy Mayor, R. Powles, Esq. entertained a large company afterwards with refreshments, when health arid a long reign to his Majesty were drank with enthusiastic loyalty. On Wednesday morning a grand procession of gentlemen and tradesmen of Abergavenny, joined by the grand lodge of Odd Fellows, decorated with all the paraphernalia of office, and enli- vened by the strains. of the town-band, paraded the principal streets, to proclaim his Majesty King William IV.; which was done by the active Chief, Mr. Watkins, and supported by B. D. Williams, Esq. in his official capacity as P. G. M. After which a numerous and respectable company sat down to an excellent dinner at the George Inn, and commemorated the event with in- spiring toasts and loyal sentiments till a late hour of the evening. His Majesty King William was proclaimed at Carmarthen on the 30th ult.; at Crickhowell, Hay, and Trecastle, Breconshire, on the 1st inst.; At Pembroke, on the 3d inst.; at Builth, Brecon- shire, on the 5th inst.; and at Llanelly, Carmarthenshire, on the 8th inst. with every demonstration of respect and loyalty. On Monday last, Charles Ely, Esq. of Cwmdwr, was elected one of the Proprietary Trustees for the Harbour of Swansea. The Annual Meeting of the Second South Wales District of Wesleyan Preachers, commenced at Carmarthen on Wednes- day se'nnight, and closed on the Monday following. Several ser- mons were preached in the Welsh language by the Ministers from the different circuits. The Rev. James Buckley was the repre- sentative from the English District, and the Rev. David Evans from the North Wales Welsh District. The Meeting to the Preachers and many of the inhabitants of Carmarthen and the ad- joining counties-was "a feast of fat things." The Rev. Dr. Adam Clarke, from Lqndon, presided, as the W&lsh President. The Rev. Jabez Bunting was prevented from attending by severe illness. The venerable Dr. Clarke preached his first sermon in the Principality at the Ebenezer Chapal, which sermon he kindly promised for publication in the Eurgrawn, a Welsh Magazine which, it is believed, will be a blessing to generations to come, when the learned Doctor will be no more heard-On taking the number of Members in the different Circuits, 392 were added to the several Societies last year, and the Sunday Schools are in a f rowing state there is also a considerable increase in the North (istrict, as well as in the English District in South Wales. The number of Chapels in the Second South Wales District, 69 the number of Societies, 149 total number of Members, 3583. On Wednesday se'nnight, the organ, a fine powerful in- strument, was opened in Abergavenny Church, by the Rev. Mr. West, of Bristol, in a most grand an imposing manner. The ser- vice embraced some fine voluntaries, duets, &c., in which the strength and powers of the organ were richly displayed. The Jubilate, Te-Deum, and the Psalms, were chanted and several Anthems and Choruses, from Handel, Haydn, and other eminent composers, were sung with great spirit and effect, which appeared to gladden the hearts of the numerous and respectable congrega- tion present; after which a most highly-talented and sublime dis- course, in every sense suited to the occasion, was delivered by the worthy and excellent Vicar, the Rev. Wm. Powell, in his usual masterly style of eloquence, which appeared to make a lively and deep impression on the feelings of his hearers, if we may judge from the liberal contribution after the sermon, which amounted to upwards of 801. Considering there were but few except those who had already handsomely contributed towards it, and borne a a share of the burden and expense of the recent alterations which the Church has undergone (which, altogether, is now justly con- sidered one of the most commodious and complete in the Princi- pality), is certainly considered very handsome.—On Thursday morning a Grand Selection of Sacred Music was performed, and in the evening a Concert in the large-room at the Angel Inn but owing to the unfavourableness of the weather, the company were by no means so large as was anticipated on the occasion how- ever, at the close, the funds shewed the efforts were notaltogether in vain, for upwards of 491. were added to Wednesday's collec- tion. On Friday a trial of skill between several candidates for the situation of organist was contested, and after a long struggle, I it was decided in favour pf Mr. E. Hovvells, a young man from Hereford, and pupil of Dr. Clarke, organist of Hereford Cathedral. 1: BIIHIIWIIBIIIMIIMIIIlBIII III ■! lllll HI III lllilill III illil 11 nil ill lllllllli II II IIIIH minim PROCLAMATION OF KLNG WLLLIAM IV. AT NEWPORT. —Pursuant to a precept of the Privy Council, forwarded by the Sheriff of the County to the Mayor of the Borough, of Newport, directing him to proclaim the Accession of our Most Gracious Sovereign William IV. to the Throne and Sceptre of these King- doms, preparations were made on the occasion, which spoke loudly in favour of the loyalty and spirit of the inhabitants. Bills were distributed, announcing that the ceremony would take place on the 5th instant. At an early hour numbers were seen directing their steps to the square fronting the Town Clerk's Offices, whence the pageant was to set out; and at eleven o'clock a party of the 93d Highlanders arrived there, commanded by Capt. Ban- ner, for the purpose of heading the procession. Considerable difficulty was experienced in carrying into effect the projected ar- rangements, in consequence of the immense number of spectators assembled to witness the ceremony but by the activity and zeal of Mr. Jacob Jenkin Nicholas and Mr. H. Webber, to whose ex- ertions the inhabitants are much indebted, every obstacle and difficulty were surmounted, and a procession formed of a most splendid and imposing description. At twelve o'clock a flourish of trumpets announced the arrangements to be complete, and the Mayor and Corporation, preceded by the Town Clerk, left the Guildhall, and filled the space.reserved for them in the procession, when the Proclamation was read by the Mayor (all uncovered) at the conclusion of which the air was rent by the united accla- mations of assembled thousands. The procession then moved slowly in the following order, the bands playing the National Anthem:— Town Constables, with staves. Banner. Party of the 93d Highlanders. Banner. Band. Messrs. Webber's Men, the Printers to the Corporation. Boys of the National School. Banner (Royal Arms). Churchwardens and Overseers. Town Crier. Water Bailiff, with silver oar. Bailiffs of the Borough, with silver maces. Town Clerk. Mayor, and Capt. Banner. Aldermen. Clergy, in their gowns. Banner. Gentlemen of the Town, four abreast, in deep mourning. Masonic Banner. The Society of Tradesmen. Band. Five Benefit Societies, with banners. Party of the 93(1 Highlanders. Town Constables, with staves. The procession passed up Stow Hill, down Charles-street, along Commercial-street, and up High-street to the King's Head, where the Proclamation was for the last time read with immense cheer- ing. The party then proceeded to the Bridge, and again returned to the King's Head, where the procession halted, and while the bands still played God save the King," the Mayor and Corpora- tion, followed by the gentlemen who attended, entered and par- took of a cold collation, or what perhaps might be more properly termed an elegant dinner. Above 70 gentlemen sat down to table. The chair was most creditably filled by the worthy Mayor, who was supported by Capt. Banner on one side and on the other by Thos. Prothero, Esq. the Town Clerk Thos. Phillips, jun. Esq. the partner of Mr. Prothero, officiating as vice-president. After the repast, the Mayor, in a very appropriate speech; wherein he he alluded to the melancholy event which had occasioned their being assembled, concluded by wishing that our country mi^ht still enjoy that happiness and liberty in the present reign which had so proudly and so justly distinguished that of our deceased Sovereign.. He then proposed the health of King William IV." which was drank with tremendous cheering the band playing God save the King." The following toasts were then drank :— The Queen and the Rdyal Family."—Air.—" Hail Star of Brunswick." Army and Navy."—Air.—"Seethe Conquering Hero comes." Capt. Banner returned thanks. Thos. Prothero, Esq. proposed the health of the worthy Mayor, with three times three.—Air.—" Hearts of Oak." The Mayor returned thanks after which he proposed the health of Capt. Banner, introducing him to the gentlemen present as a Burgess of the Borough, he having that morning been presented with his freedom. Capt. Banner then rose, and acknowledged Ae pride he felt for the distinguished honour they had conferred- upon him. He felt, and was glad of the opportunity of expressing that feeling, that he considered the present moment one of the most happy of his life and pledged himself never to be unmindful of the interests and welfare of the Borough of which he was honoured in consi- dering himself a Burgess. The health of Lord Worcester was proposed by Thos. Prothero, Esq.; and from the way it was drunk there is no doubt but his Lordship will be welcomely received by the Burgesses of this Borough, when he again offers himself as a candidate for repre- senting them in Parliament. Thos. Phillips, jun. Esq., in an appropriate speeoh, begged to remind the meeting, that they were not, as he trusted, assembled for the purpose of performing an unmeaning ceremony.—No they were met to pledge themselves solemnly and deliberately to sup- port the institutions and government of their country, and to do so, if the times required it (which God forbid), at any and at every risk. They were assembled to manifest their loyalty to the Sovereign and their attachment to the institutions of their coun- tfy and when loyalty was the theme, there was one family con- nected with the county which could not be forgotten. At the head of the civil and military government of the county was placed a Nobleman whose family had in every period of our his- tory been distinguished for undeviating loyalty. It was the proud boast of that family, that in other and in evil times, an ancestor of that ho]^^fed supported the flag of 'his Sovereign, on his na- tive castle,WIP» it had been trampled under foot m every other part of bis King's dominions, and had parted with loyalty and life together. He should conclude by proposing the health of the Duke of Beaufort, Lord Lieutenant of the county.— Air.— "Duke of York's March." John Brewer, jun. Esq. proposed the health of Lord Granville Somerset. Capt. Banner proposed the health of Mrs. Mayoress and the Ladies of Newport.—Air.—" Bonnie Lassie." The Mayor returned thanks. Thos. Phillips, jun. Esq. proposed the health of Sir C. Morgan, which was drunk with great applause.—Air.—"Of noble race was Shenkin." Thos. Prothero, Esq. proposed the Corporation.—Air.—Caer- pbilly March." William Williams, Esq. returned thanks. The Mayor drank to the health of Thomas Prothero, Esq. as Town Clerk of the Borough, prefacing the toast by a high eulo- gium on his oharacter and his attention to the interests of the town, and expressed how strongly the Corporation felt the the value of his services.—Air.—"When order in this land commenced." Thomas Prothero, Esq. returned thanks in the most feeling manner. The next toast was "the Clergy, for whom the Rev. Thomas Boddington and the Rev. Mr. Buxke returned thanks.-Air.- Portuguese Hymn. Thos. Prothero, Esq. proposed the health of the High Sheriff of the County, which was drunk with great applause. Just as the party was about to break up, Mr. Protlflro rose, and after alluding with. much feeling and effect to the triumphs of the Regency, and to the still prouder glories of the late reign, particularly the legislative measures for putting an end to civil disabilities on account of religious differences, the great value of which was their tendency to promote union and harmony amongst all classes, proposed "unanimity amongst persons of all creeds and ppinions in the support of the lawful institutions of the coun- try," expressing at the same time his own feeling that no occa- sion could be more appropriate than the present for terminating differences, whether political, religious, or personal. After which the Mayor and Corporation retired. It must have been pecu- liarly gratifying, to the persons immediately interested in the ce- remony to have been so numeroesly and respectably attended each seemed to manifest one common feeling on the occasion, that of testifying their loyalty to our new Sovereign. The gentlemen who sat down, did so under the impression that the entertainment was to have been defrayed amongst themselves, and sovereigns were heard clattering upon the plates; when Mr. Prothero (on the part of the Corporation) rose to inform them that the whole was to be paid for from the Corporation fund. The intelligence of such unexpected liberality electrified the room, and was of course hailed with thunders of applause. The Corporation also gave orders that 14 barrels of beer should be distributed among the populace. It was deemed prudent, from the pressure of the crowd, to close the shops; business appeared suspended; and every countenance, beamed with conviviality. The boys of the National Schools (upwards of 160) were regaled with plum cakes, and an elegant dinner was. provided by the Corporation for the company of the 93d Highlanders-, who are now stationed there. The ringing of bells and firing of cannon were continued through- out the day, which fortunately proved favorable, and terminated without an accident.-Amorigst the company who sat down to dinner were the following gentlemen:—Richard Rogers, Esq. Mayor; T. Prothero, Esq. Town Clerk Wm. Brewer, Wm. Williams, A. Jones, T. J. Phillips, John Owen, Edmund Jones, and Joseph Latch, Esqrs. Aldermen; Revs. T. Boddington, Langshaw, and John Burke Capt. Banner, of the 93d High- landers Messrs. A. Williams, H. H. Cownnjan, J. J. Nicholas, R. Jenkins, R. Nicholas, T. Pain, E- Harris, John Lewis, R. Pyne, E. Jones, jun., T. Phillips, jun., Samuel Morgan, jun., J. Clements, W. H. Williams, H. Webber, T. Hawkins, B. Bat- chelor, E. Nicholas, John Lobbett, H. W. Webber, T. Morris, T. Cooke, J. D. Jenkins, W. W. Webber, L.

Griffiths, Samuel Morgan, and John Morgan. ■ Twelve berries of Wilmot's superb Strawberry, taken out of the dish gathered for dessert at the Rev. Archdeacon Davies's, at Brecon, on the 6th instant, weighed lOt oz.; the heaviest weighed nearly lj oz., and measured 61 inches in circumference. If We state with confidence, for the satisfaction of those who re- quire the assistance of a competent Surgeon-Dentist, that Mr. Hart,-of Bristol, now so well known amongst us, will make his Ninth Annual Visit to Swansea by the 22d inst., and we under- stand will bring valuable recent acquirements in the Dental art. Capt. David Nicholas, of the brig Irish Miner, which was wrecked near the Wormshead on the 23d ult. most gratefully ac- knowledges the services rendered him in bis perilous situation by Mr. Bartlett, of the Preventive Service, and his boat's crew, with- out any remuneration. FATAL ACCIDENT.—The boiler of one of the steam en- gines on the rail-road between the Tredegar Works and Newport d "I unfortunately bursted on Wednesday se'nnight, about nine miles from the latter place, by which accident, we lament to say, one man was killed. An inquest was held on the body before Wm. Brewer, Esq.-Verdict, Accidental Death. On Saturday last an inquest was held at knole, in the port of Miiford, on the body of Mr. Thomas Powell; of Portclew, farmsr, which had floated on shore the day previous near that place on the outside of the harbour. He had. been missing since the Tuesday week before. Verdict-Found di-owned. At a meeting of the Ironmasters of Shropshire, held on Thursday se'nnight, the price of pig iron was advanced 10s. per ton, and bar and other sorts 20s. per ton. On Thursday evening, about nine o'clock, a person named Jac'obs, a Welsh cattle dealer, when going to Lower Knowle, near Bristol to get keep for his beasts, was stopped by some ruffians, who barbarously beat him, and after robbing him of his hat and a few shillings in silver, decamped. Hereford fair on Thursday exhibited a fine show of cattle, particularly fat animals, but the heavy rain which fell during the whole day, was very detrimental to the transaction of business, and joined to the late floods, had a material effect on the sale of cattle. Fat animals averaged 5d. per lb. and very prime went a trifle higher; stores were rather lower in price, compared with the terms they sold at lately. There was a remarkably large show of sheep, which were in considerable demand, and sold freely from 5-Jd. to 6d. per lb. The horse mart contained a very indif- 0 2 ferent show, and little business was done. The quantity of wool brought to the fair was not large, and the whole was sold :— Combing fleeces went from lis. to 13s. per stone of nUbs. Rye- land and Leicester from lis. to 13s. 6d.; Lamb, very fine, 13s. to 14s.; and one lot of superfine Southdown sold as high as 16s.; coarse from 9s. to 12s. per stone.

To the EDITOR of The CAMBRIAN. SIR,-Be pleased to insert the following letter in your News- paper for the benefit of the Principality. SIR,-As the Bill you brought into and are now forwarding in Parliament, for the purpose of destroying the Welsh Judica- ture, will oblige the inhabitants of that country to have recourse to the Courts of Law at Westminster, for the recovery of all debts exceeding 40s. and to run the hazard and expense of trial in London, or some other English county, in all transitory actions, to their great vexation, and perhaps ruin, which are now confined to their respective counties, I beg leave to suggest to you the propriety of deferring the enactment of that law until the very moment the Local Judicature Bill, proposed by Mr. Brougham, shall become effective, because it is to a certain extent calculated to relieve them from the before-mentioned inconveniences, which your Bill will otherwise subject them to.—I am, Sir, your obe- dient Servant, A WELSHMAN. To Sir James Scarlett, his Majestys's Attorney-General. .4.

To the EDITOR of The CAMBRIAN. SIR,-At a period when doctrines are broached and actively propagated in direct hostility with the principles of the constitu- tion, and tending to introduce into the country feelings of discon- tent, with all their concomitant miseries, crimes, and horrors, among the lower classes of mankind, I trust you wilt not refuse to insert in your paper the following inclosed hints, thrown toge- ther upon a Lecture delivered by Mr. Cobbett, which I attended a few weeks since in Bristol, and which shew in a clear light the evil tendency of those Lectures in a country like our own.—In thus soliciting the publication of them, I entreat you to be persuaded, that I am not actuated or influenced by any party motives;-but I honour the King, I venerate the constitution, and I love, dearly love, my country; and to see it flourish in peace, prosperity, and happiness, and not degraded by a sanguinary faction, is the sincere, solemn, and sole wish of my heart. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your very obedient Servant, Landough, 5th July, 1830. CLERICUS. HINTS. Stubborn facts, however, crowd around us on all sides in such profusion, yet no one can, with the slightest share of reason, doubt the tremendous evils which these Lectures of Mr. Cob- bett's are likely to produce in the minds of the lower orders in this country.-There is nothing estimable in the nation, either of Eersons or things, which is not covered with his shameless false- oods and scurrilities.—The expressly declared object of all these Lectures is to make such changes in the Constitution as would destroy it altogether.-The ThrOlw is buried in the filth which is cast upon it; the Church is crumbling into ruins from incessant battering, and every institution in the state totters on its founda- tions.—It needs not the spirit of prophecy to foretell what will be the consummation if the seditious language of these Lectures be suffered to produce their course unrestrained ;—it must be the destruction of the Constitution, and the total breaking up of society.-This, I say, must be the issue, unless the age of miracles be revived unless the immutable principle of cause and etTect be inverted unless the very same feelings and conduct lead to directly opposite results here, to those which they have inva- riably done in all other nations since the creation to doabt it we must doubt all that nature and experience have placed above doubt.—Would not this make the philanthropist weep over the miseries with which it threatens mankind?—Would it not make a stranger ask if we had no laws?—Would it not make the cynic draw still blacker sketches of human nature ?-And would it not make the patriot curse and renounce his country?—The invalu- able privileges and advantages of this country cannot be duly estimated by those who are strangers to the existence of most other countries, and to the actual state of all.—When, therefore, the lower classes are told day by day, and week by week, and year by year, that Ministers are abandoned villains; that the Nobles, tns Clergy, and all men of rank and fortune, are united in combination to rob and oppress them, and that every institu- tion of Church and State exists for the same purpose ;—when they are told this by those whom they regard as their sole friends, and when they possess no possible means of knowing to the contrary, can it excite any surprise that they believe it ?—And believing it, can it excite any surprise that they are discontented, and dis- satisfied with their situation and condition in life ?—-To Mr. Cobbett alone is granted the privilege of violating all human and divine laws with impunity.—Can this state of things continue ?— No more than flame can remain without increase in the midst of combustibles.-Were I asked what steps ought to be taken, I would say, disperse the ignis fatuus which is now skipping about from place to place throughout this island, dignified with the sounding titles of Light, Knowledge, and Reason, and have re- course to the unerring wisdom of our ancestors they distinctly trode the path which we should pursue, and in this path compel us to travel.—The evil tendency of these Lectures cannot puzzle the plainest understanding, for they are couched in the broadest terms that disaffection and discontent can use.—Shoufd these hints have attracted some notice, happy shall I be if they produce some public benefit, for they are the transcript of my heart and the attestations of myconscience. If the eloquence of the immortal men of old-that eloquence whose thunders reverberated through the universe, and whose lightnings flashed into the darkest recesses of ignorance, and con- sumed the mightiest fabrics of error ;—which accomplished what armies could not accomplish, and whioh led nations captive in its chains of flame,—if that eloquence were mine, in" this hply cause would I employ it !-I would call around me the millions who yet tread the face of mJ country, in all the dignity and grandeur of lofty spirit, unsullied honour, untainted principles, and en- thusiastic patriotism.—I would shew them the conflagration of the Nile—the shot-torn, captured colours of Trafalgar—the splen- did trophies of Waterloo—and the colossal Empire of France shivered to atoms—and I would say, shall that race of men which furnished the heroes to whom these are owing, be suffered to be- come the prey of rebels and infidels, and from being the pride and fear of the world, be considered its scorn, and the curse of their country ?—I would shew them in the wilds of America, in the flaming plains of India, in the death-fraught atmosphere of Africa, and amidst the cannibals of the Antipodes, English Missionaries with their lives in their hands,—expatriated from their country, and without hope of earthly reward, distributing English Bibles, and shewing the savage and the slave the way to heaven ;—and I would say—shall the religion which sends forth these be over- thrown?—And shall we, who have opened the gates of heaven to three quarters of the globe be ourselves shut out? I would shew them the CONSTITUTION, venerable from age, unequalled in wisdom, resplendent with glory, and inexhaustible in blessings, and I would say—shall this sacred pile which was raised by the consummate talents of ages, cemented with the blood of the nobles, and consecrated by the worship of the world -which gives wisdom to our senates, valour to our armies, vic- tory to our fleets, and power, happiness, and life to our country which has made us the mightiest among the mighty, and the noblest among the noble, and which, like the Egis of the heathen deity, has shielded us from the united attacks of the world ;— shall this be mutilated with impunity, and overthrown without defence by such men as Cobbett and Hunt?—If by such argu- ments as these, I could cause the breast to throb, the eye to flash, and the cheek to crimson!—If I could make the sword leap from its scabbard, and call forth the sublime and electrifying shout of Ch?4rch, King, Constitution, and Country, it would be a reward which I would not exchange for a diadem.-The reflection would throw splendours round a life which has had its full share of suf- fering, and it would shed comfort and consolation around my death bed. i.
