the tamworth DINNER. .
the tamworth DINNER. (From Blackwood's Magazine for October.) Conspicuous and commanding is the position which Sir Robert Peel occupies at this moment in the eyes of his countrymen Upon him rests the eager and undivided attention of the large body of Conservatives. With his policy are bound up the hopes of the peaceable and well-affected part of the community-of all, in fact, who prefer order to anarchy, and constitutional monarchy to unbridled republicanism. His acuteness as a statesman-his tact as a de- bater-the influence which he wields at will over the House of Commons, though the leader only of a minority-ttie coolness, temper, and firmness, which have characterised his bearing as a minister in moments of to those around him, uncontrollable excitement—the line of Conservative policy to which he pledged himself—and the magnanimity with which he quitted office because he could not carry that policy into effect—his prompt sacrifice of place rather than establish a dangerous prece- dent-explain in some degree the thrall in which he holds captive the hearts of the British people. The passing incidents in the career of such a man are memorable. We wish to know more of him. We desire to possess his thoughts, views, and opinions on all the absorbing topics of the day— to hear under what aspect he is disposed to regard a period fertile beyond all precedent, in rapid and important changes. Thus viewed, the Tamworth dinner assumes a degree of importance to which it would not be otherwise entitled. It was the first appearance of the fallen minister in his own neighbourhood since his descent from office. It was given him by a body who were not only his constituents, but his neighbours; intimately conversant with his do- mestic life, and well qualified to judge how far his public professions coincided with his private de- clarations. To some of those who sat around him his career from boyhood was familiar. And the events of the evening seemed to throw new light on his character as a statesman, a private citizen, and a man. For some weeks before the dinner took place, every ticket was disposed of. More than two hundred of the most influential individuals in the neighbouring counties signified to the committee their desire to be present-but in vain. The ac- commodation was limited and it was not easy to complete new arrangements. As the day drew near, and the certainty of Sir Robert's presence— from the advanced state of public business—was ascertained, fresh solicitations and renewed efforts were made by the disappointed; and in many in- stances five and six guineas were offered and refused for the dinner ticket. The evening of the 4th arrived, sunny and cheering; for two hours, the roll, of carriages into the little town of Tam- worth was incessant. A few minutes after six, the ex-premier entered the hall, and was most cordially greeted by upwards of two hundred gentlemen, emi- nent for their public worth and private character. It was cheering to observe how little the duties of a long and laborious session had told upon him. The erect and manly carriage-the springing and elastic step-the manner—look—voice—eye,-—all spoke health unassailed and energies unimpaired; a conclusion welcomed with greater pleasure by those who remembered the savage and assassin-like description of Sir Robert's person-to the Globe, the favoured organ of Ministers, must, we believe, be conceded this pre-eminence in brutality—which appeared soon after his assuming the reins of office, and ran the round of the Liberal press. "Sir Robert Peel will not last Ion, We shall soon be rid of him. Death will do the business. The fatigues of the session are evidently killing him." By the kindness of the. Vice-President, Mr Bram- mall, a name long associated with integrity of character and superiority of intellect, a seat was assigned us so near the guest ot the evening that much of his general conversation reached us. We watched him-we are not ashamed to avow it- narrowly and closely. We wished to gain an in- sight into the workings of that commanding mind. We would fain have obtained a glimpse of the prepa- ratory intellectual exercise of that master spirit which has so often and so memorably checked the arrogance of the demagogue and stilled the cla- mours of faction. Our position was favourable, and we made the most of it. Nothing could be more gay, off-hand, and unembarrassed, than his manner. No human being who watched him would have supposed that he was the individual from whom no common effort of intellect was expected, and would so shortly be conceded. His conversa- tion, during dinner, was ease and gaiety itself. But when the cloth was drawn, a change of manner was perceptible. There was a sudden silence-a knitting of the brows-- an appearance of abstrac- tion-a summoning of the mental powers to their work-as if he were then, for the first time, sensible of the task with which he had to grapple. But even then his superiority to the herd was marked and evident. There was nothing of the hectic of alternate hope and fear—nothing of the flutter of uncertainty—nothing of the hesitation of a man who fears he has undertaken a task beyond his strength. His was the calmness and self-posses- sion of a veteran carefully marshalling all his foices previous to the combat, and confident of vic- tor) at its close. It were idle here to give much of that celebrated speech. It has long since sunk deep _'nto ie hearts and memories of the British nation. Yut there are one or two particular passages which call for a passing remark, and which drew down enthusiastic cheers during their delivery. Nothing could be more happy than the tone, nothing more significant than the smile, nothing more dextrous than the expression of the lip witit which he a'luded to the 1-clove and affectionate union at present exi-vting" between O'Connell and Lord Melbourne. He read from papers before him that passage from the King's speech, drawn up by a VVhiy cabinet, in which the machinations of the arch demagogue were denounced as little less than traitorous. The language of the other party was equally complimentaryln his letter to Lord Duncannon he thus describes Lord Melbourne In plain truth, my Lord, it is quite manifest that Lord Melbourne is quite incompetent to the high office he holds. It is lamentable to me to think that the destinies of the Irish people should in any degree depend on so inefiicient a person." With unsparing sarcasm Sir Robert then commented on the sacrifice of principle made by each pariy, ere they could support the same line of policy; and closed his merciless exposure with the remark uttered in the most exquisite tone of irony a11 that I can now say is, that they have sacrificed on the altar of their country their ancient hostilities, and the union has given to one party office, and to the other power." The line of policy he had intended to pursue as Premier was thus concisely, yet clearly stated I had not undertaken to govern on ultra prin- ciples. I was aware, and so must all of you be, that great changes had taken place in the institu- tions of the country, and that it was expected that the course government would pursue would he to accommodate itself to those changes. I meant to do so, ancj j do say, that whatever had been my opinions with respect to the Reform Bill, he must be a madman who should forget that it had passed." Thus much then for his views as a statesman. There were, however, one or two passages in the progress of the evening, not recorded in the public papers, which exhibited him to no small advantage as a private citizen and as a man. He took an early opportunity of proposing the health of the chairman, Mr Inge—a noble speci- men of the English country gentleman—courteous, intelligent, and refined- his whole life one con- tinued exemplitication of unshaken loyalty and un- impeachable honor. The cordial yet deferential manner in which Sir Robert Peel called on the company to pledge the health of this much res- pected individual; the terms—few but felicitously chosen—in which he alluded to the steadiness of is public principles, his years, the position he 11 le occupied not merely in the country but in the esteem of those around him, will not speedily pass away from the memory ofthose who heard him. Sir Robert himself timed the cheers. He claimed the privilege of doing so. And it was a curious spectacle to see the man who had so lately pre- sided in the councils of one of the most powerful nations of the earth, standing up, glass in hand, and leading with the heartiest bonhommie and good will the cheers which accompanied the toast he hadsoappropri^iy prefaced. <<i 00'er subsequently proposed the hea'th of Lady Peel.1 The manner in which he introduced the pledge to the company was curious. "I am about, said he, to propose a toast which I know will be better received than any which has pre- ceded it. You seem surprised at this. I am confi- dent of it. The sex alone would be sitfficient.- But when I name the object, I shall be secure of your suffrages to a man." Some further remarks followed—thus closed "I beg to name one who is admired in private life for her attainments, and beloved for her virtues who has nobly upheld at home and abroad the character of the accomplished and high principled English lady; who has solaced the bitter moment of defeat and graced the bright hour of triumph. Health and happiness to Lady Peel." Sir Robert Peel rose instantly. He observed, the allusions of the last speaker were perfectly just when applied to one who amid the cares and harassing disquietudes of public life had by her bright auguries of the future, soothed—and, in the nour of despondency, by her calm confidence in Heaven, cheered." He then alluded to his journey from Rome, and asked what, save that spirit op- posed to every consideration of SELY-common, he believed, to every virtuous English lady-could have enabled a delicate and feeble woman to brave a journey of eight successive days and nights, at the most inclement season of the year, rather than be absent from her husband's side at a moment which she deemed the most critical of his public life." Another sentence or two intervened; and he concluded by again thanking them on behalf of her to whom he owed a debt of which the de- votion of a life, however long, could scarcely repay. The cordiality and delicacy with which the statesman acknowledged the compliment were felt by all. Not a word was said too much. And yet it was evident how completely the feelings of the man and the husband were identified with the theme. To us this was the VEZCII of the evening. Where there is so much to praise, it were in- vidious to seek out matter for censure; yet the following passage awoke a melancholy echo in the breasts of some of Sir Robert's auditors. It oc- curred to them that the word COMPROMISE"—at all times a word of ill-omen—should never have been uttered by the Conservative leader of the lower House. They thought it would have come with better grace from any lips than his, whose constant cry has been when the rights of theiubject were sought to be wrested from him—"No Sur- render It was associated in their minds with disgrace. Compromise," to them, sounded like concession obtained by menace and yielded from cowardice. At any rate it should have found no utterance from Sir Robert Peel; but have remained in its proper and peculiar resting-place—the vo- cabulary of the feeble, and timid, and mercenary, and base. "I am not one to advise a pertinacious adherence in any branch of the legislature to its own prin- ciples. I ha--e lately advised a COMPROMISE but it is a COMPROMISE worthy of the dignity of each branch of the legislature. It is my wish to avoid collision between the two Houses of Par- liament; and I believe that the welfare of this country consists in that the people of it should be able to apply themselves to the honest pursuits of industry without being constantly harassed by dis- cussions of the legislature. But I assert, that whilst I advise a virtuous and dignified COM- PROMISB, I will never consent to any species of compromise that will tend to destroy any one branch of the legislature." With this single exception, the scene was a bright interval snatched from the turmoil ot poli- tical life. Good taste and good feeling governed it throughout—from the opening address of the chairman down to the pithy speech of the venerable ecclesiastic, who returned thanks on behalf of ''the bishop and clergy," and who, in a few and touching terms, stated that his ministry had lasted over SIXTY YEARS — a period, we are inclined to believe, of Taried and extensive usefulness. It was a meeting that will bear reflection-at once worthy of its object, and memorable for the generous and high-minded sentiments it suggested and elicited.
IWORCESTER CONSERVATIVE MEETING.
WORCESTER CONSERVATIVE MEETING. (Abridged from the Worcester Guardian.) The first Anniversary Meeting of the West Wor- cestershire Conservative Association, was held on Wednesday, at the Hop-Pole Hotel, in this city.— The meeting was most respectably attended, and the dinner, which was on a most abundant scale, and consisted of all the luxuries of the table, was ar- ranged with great taste. The chair was occupied by John Brown, Esq., of Lee Castle and the vice-chair by Phipps V. Onslow, Esq. In the course of the evening, the health of Mr Pakington, as president of the East Worcestershire Association, was honored with three times three Mr Pakington, in the course of an admirable speech, said, that he disliked political associations generally and on principle; but there were times, unhappily, when, as in the dialogue between Brutus and Cassius, it was urged, good reasons must of force give way to better," alld he feared the time was come, when good reasons on general grounds against political associations must give way to the better which grew out of the dangers with which they were surrounded. (Hear.) He feared this as- sociation was not, iu some quarters, supported as it ought to be. It was useless to conceal facts; there was nothing like meeting them face to face. There were persous of high standing in thecountry of great respectability, and of great stake in it, who were of Conservative principles, but who kept aloof from these associations from objections, on principle,to all political societies. He hoped these person. whom he much respected, and whose motives he honored, would consider the danger with which every thing that they valued was threatened that they would view the activity with which every thing that they could hold sacred was assailed; and that they would not keep aloof too long from joining societies which, like that, were so eminently calculated to protect their best institutions. These were not times to stand uloof, on abstract principle, from measures which, if bad in peaceful limes, were defensive and necessary now. They had seen the necessity of forwing a I society like this three months ago. Had anything in the present aspect of the political horizon dimi- nished that necessity ? They all remembered the events of January last, when au election unexpectedly ad come upon then), and the Conservative, by ex- alone, had unseated upwards of one hundred higand Radical members} and replaced them by tiled friends of the Conservative cause. (Loug- contiiiued cheers.) Those exertions had been thus successful; but, from want of organization of the Con- servative body, they had been successful only to fall a little short of prolonging the brightest day that England, in her political existence, had beheld. j d they then known how toorganize their resources, ,ey had not had now to mourn over a Session of Pat- liametit the most disgraceful that had ever been, if not redeemed by the noble conduct of the House of Lords,—(loud cheers,)—and which had its existence entirely by the SUPPOIl of the lrillh Roman Catholic ,ne",bL,rs- (h eas-)-depen dent solely on one man, who avowedly aimed at the destruction of the Church and the dismemberment of the empire.— (Loud cheel-s.)-The Hon. Member for Bath had "alù, that the present Ministry were supported by the People. (L aughter.) The people! Where, he would a > when three classes were abstracted, were the Pe«ple? (Loud cheers.) He trusted that through these Conservative Societies the people, the classes w loin he had just enumerated, the classes who notoriously were arrayed against all embecilc Mi- nistry, would speak out at the next election, and be really represented in their own House ofparliaitierit. (Loud cheering) He remembered, in the speech winch he had heard Sir Robert Peel deliver at MerChant Tailor's Hall, the eloquent advice of that illusfrou statesman, that the struggle must be made in the lower House of Parliament. He trusted they would struggle, and st ruggle hard, in the ca use ot their country—above all, that they would re- member the language ofSir Robert Peel, that there should be "no despondency." (Hear, hear.) If they would, in this spit-it, unite their exertions, act in concert, and remember that it was in the cause of their country, in the cause of every thing that ren- dered their country great and happy, he trusted such exertions would be successful. (Loud cheering.) Mr Spooner said he had leave from the Chairman to propose a toast; it was a toast which he feared he should not be able to do justice to. He was about to propose to them "The House of Lords." (Vehe. ment cheering for several minutes.) He was sure they had all read history too well to be ignorant of the fact, that this era, the year 1835, was not the first time when the House of Lords had stood for- ward in the gap to defend the Monarchy, the subor- dination of ranks, the rights of property, the rights and the real liberties of the people against the inroads of revolutionary violence. (Hear.) This was not the first time that that noble assembly had stood forward to defend the Constitution of the country against attacks such as lately had been made upon it by an audacious and unprincipled taction. (Hear.) When they saw the Government of the country in the hands of a political party, who were incompetent to the conduct of its affairs, who were supported only by a faction which bore down 'he English votes of the House of Commons, which attempted to daunt and controul the Peern, which bearded the Sovereign and strove to coerce him into measures which he" could not suffer with safety to the Constitution when they saw such an Adminis- tration leagued with that man whom they had once gone so far out of their course as to denounce even in a speech from the Throne, and this only that they might keep their places against the approbation of the King, against the votes of the House of L01 s, against the majority of English Members m the House of Commons,-(hear, hear,)—he felt that that Assembly whose health he shou'd propose to them was indeed entitled to their grateful admiration. (Loud cheers.) He hoped that not only the rank and property, but the whole people ot the country would open their eyes to the danger which sur- rounded them and resist the progress of encroach- ment on the Constitution to the uttermost. But he saw, and he saw it with cheering hopes that ihe great majority of the people had opened their eyes. Thev saw that the true principles of Reform had been attained, and that the changes now pro- posed in that specious name were the delusive manoeuvres of a selfish, party. (Loud and long continued cheeri..g.) No rea«* the eloquent speech which Sir Robert Peel had niade at Tamworth, and not see, that had hw Administration been Buffered to continue, every reform in which the public interest was consulted, would have been effected. But he, by the intriguesof apolitical party, was not suffered to hold on his bright career and by whom now, were wielded the destinies of Eng- land 1 Need he name to them, the Agitator O'Con- nell? Who could witness the discassiotit4 which had lately taken place in this city—who could examine the doctrines then published to the world which were really held by a large portion of that party who claim, par excellence, the title of Reformer*, and the people's friends"-and not see through the flimsy web which the demagogues of revolution were weaving round the rights, and the freedomsof their credulous victims? It was in association such as this, formed to support the even tenour of the law, by sober, peaceful, and lawful means, not by eit- cited, tumultuous, and riotous meetings, not by striving to seduce the people with a false show of liberty, or to deter, by intimidation the puardians of the Constitution from preserving it inriolate, that the antidote to these erile was to be found. Against a faction so proceeding, in a crisis such as we badjust passed, had we seen the House of Lords come forward and make a noble stand in defence of the Constitution of their country, and he hoped the effect would be that, through their firmness and example, the safety and the glory of England would be made secure. The toast was drunk with three times three round" of vehement cheering.

THE SCHOOLMASTER. Lord Brougham will be known by and by. We thought we knew him pretty well already, but we confess we were not prepared for one of his late dis- plays. Nothing that he could have done in thtf way of assertion and humbug could have surprised us; but we did not know that his notions as to the right of property were so very loose as they appear to be —that he would stoop so low as to retail stolen goods as if they were his own manufacture, and un- scrupulously appropriate to himself the resultii of the labour of those who owe him anything but a debt of gratitude. But we shall. satisfy the most sceptical of our readers that Lord Brougham has done all this, and we defy and dare the learned baron to attempt to contradict any part of our statement. In one of his clap-trap speeches delivered some time in the course of last season, Lord Brougham told the Marylebone Literary and Scientific In- stitution that he and a literary friend had employed themselves in writing lectures on political economy, which were to be read at different mechanics' in- stitulionlt up and down the country. Having pretty good grounds for thinking that the learned baron's political economy was very much on a level with his hydrostatics and Chancery law, we bad forgotteu the statement, and never should have dreamed had not our attention been called to it, of looking at one of his productions. But it would seem that, though the learned lord cannot discover anything new, or give a new exposition of anything old, in political economy, he can do what suits his purpose equally well, he cati-purfoin He has learned from some of his familiars what others have done, and he em- ploys a -1 literary friend," that is, we presume, a clerk at 3s. 6d. a day, to copy portions of their trea- sures, and these he transmits, interlarded with some stale twaddle of his own, to his hangers-on in dif- ferent parts of the kingdom, to be read as Lectures by Lord Brougham" at mechanics' institutes, &c. We can assure our readers that we are not prac- tising on their credulity; but are submitting to them a plain, sober statement of the fact. If any one doubts iI, let him get a copy of the Glasgolo Argus of the 21st of September, 1835, and he will doubt no longer. The first five columns of that paper are filled with a lecture on rent, "furnished to the Glas- gow Mechanics' Institute by Lord Brougham." And this lecture, from the beginning to the end with the exception of a few common-place para- graphs, is filched from ditferent works, but prin- cipally from the chapter on rent, in a "Treatise on the Principles of Political Economy," of which a second edition was published in 1830.* But, loose- tongued as he is, there are certain topics on which the learned lord can be as silent as a Pythagorean novice, and this is one of them. He carefully ab- stains from giving any sort of hint or intimation however slight, that the lecture was not entirely and bonafitle his own composition. But, so far from this being the case, its substance is wholly pur- loined, while, in some instances, the noble aud pi- ratical baron does not even give himself the trouble of diguising the larceny but, trusting to the Erul. libility of his hearers, and not having the fear of the stamped press before his eyes, copi eli verba tint, with- out transposing, abridging, or amplifying We shall give an instance or two of this new Chancery practice PRINCIPLES OF POLITICAL ECONOMY.—1,0 N DON, 1830. On the first settling of any country abounding in large tracts of unappropri- ated land no rent is ever paid and for this obvious reason, that no person will pay rent for what may be procured in unlimited quan- tities for nothing. Thus, in New Holland, where there is an ample supply of fertilcT unappropriated land, rent will not be heard of tintil the beat lands are occupied. Supi)ose,however.&C.-Page 431. "Hence, if the price be not such as will indemnify the producers of the wheat raised on the worst soils, they will cease bringing it to market, and the required supplies will no longer be obtained; while, if the price exceed this sum, fresh capi- tal will be applied to its pro- duction, and competition will soon sink prices to their natural level, that is. to such a sum as will afford the com- mon and ordinary rate of profit to the raisprs of that portion of the required sup- ply which is raised under the most unfavourable cir- cumstances. and at the great- c.stexpeftse. It is by the cost of producing this por- tion that the price of the whole crop must be reg^' lated. And, therefore, it is plainly the same thing to the consumers whether, in an advanced stage ofsociety the exceis of the return over the cost of production on lands of the first quality belongs to a non-resident landlord or an occupier.- It Inust belong to the one or the other. Corn is not high because a rent is paid, but a rent is paid because corn is high—because the demand is such that it can- not be supplied without cul- tivating soils of a dimi nished degree of fertility as compared with the best.—■ Suppose there is irt any country an effectual demand for ten millions of quarters of corn, that nine millions may be raised upon lands thatyield a high rent, but that it is necessary to taise the other million on lands which yield nothing hut the common and average rate of profit to their cultivators. Under these circumstances it IS clear that the relinquish- ing of the rents, oavable on ORIGINAL LECTURE BY LORD BROUGHAM, EX- CHANCF.LLOEt,GLASGOW, 1835. "On the first settling of any country abounding in large tracts of fertile and un- appropriated land. no rent is ever paid; and for this plain and obvious reason that no person will pay a rent for what may be pro- cured in unlimited quantities for nothing. Thus, in New Holland, where there is an ample supply of fertile and unappropriated land, it is certain that until the best lands are appropriated no such thing as rent will ever be heard of. If," &c. But the price of corn is not high because a rent is paid a rent is paid because the price of corn is high. because the demand is such that it cannot be supplied without cultivating the soils of a diminished degree of fertility as compared with the best. It is bv the cost of producing that portion of the required supplies which is raised under the most Unfavotirablecircuinstances, and with the greatest ex- pense, that the price of the whole must always be regu- lated and, therefore, it is plainly all one to the con- gulviers, whether, in an ad- vanced stare of society, the excess of return over the cost of production on lands °f the first quality belongs 10 a non-resident landlord or to the cultivator himself. Let it be assigned to whom it my, the price of the article cannot be affected thereby. Suppose there is a demand for ten millions of quarters, and that it is necessary to raise one mil- lion of these quarters on lands which yield nothing but thecolnmoll and average rate of profit to the cultiva- tors, it is clear that the relinquishing of the rents payable on the superior lands would be no boon whatever to the cultivators of the inferior lands. It would not lessen their ex- penses, that is, it would not lessen the quantum of capital and labour ne- cessary to produce that por- tion of the required sup- ply which is raised under the most unfavourable cir- cumstances; and if it did not reduce this exnense it is utterly impossible that it could lower prices." the superior lands, would be no boon to the cultivators of those that are inferior. It would not lessen their ex- penses; that is, it would not lessen the capital and labour necessary to enable them to produce that portion of the required supply which is raised in the least favourable situation; and if it did not do this It IS obvIously impnsible, supposing the demand not to decline, that it could lower pric-s."—p. 435. What did ever Grub-street hack or hawker of cheap knowledge do worse than this? We venture to affirm that from the first copyright acts down to the present day there has not been, taking all the circumstances into account, any more disgraceful instance of piracy brought home to any individual. And by whom has this offence been committed ? By one, who, till lately, presided in the Court of Chan- cery, in the very tribunal whose peculiar duty it is to protect literary property. Some men are pirates through necessity, and others through ignorance; but could an ex-chancellor be ignorant of what he was about ?-or a pensioner of 5,0001. a year be compelled by necessity to invade the property of others?

MR THOMAS MOORK. 40.--
MR THOMAS MOORK. 40. (From the Watchman.) It is well known tha' the present ministry have conferred upon this gentleman a pension of f300 a year,-for which of the many loyal or Bacchanalian effusions he has published to en'ighten or instruct the •fa, from the poems of Little to the memoirs of Rock, we are at a loss to say. The fact however is certainly iso; and we have great pleasure in laying before our readers the able and eloquent comnlentary which it has elicited from the Rev. Mortimer asullivan. In the course of his speech at the Hereford meeting he drew a painful, but, we believe, a too faithful, pic- ture of the sufferings of many of the Irish clergy, and then proceeded as follows: — "If you were familiar with representations of the Itate of society in Ireland, I might with much bold- ness appeal to you whether ) have in the slightest degree exaggerated the fuffcrings to which many faithful ministers are exposed, or added a single incident to the story of their afflictions. No; I have spared you many a detail: and it is only that 1 may not be unpardonably prolix, that I have abstained from quoting the multiplied proof which may be advanced to establish the subdued correctnessof my representations. (Loud cheers). I could even appeal to proofs of effects produced, in some few instances, in heartl1 not altogether obdurate, where men have shrouded themselves in midnight darkness, and with the same stealthy step as in other places men would move to the commission of crime with a caution such as certainty of death, following on detection, necessa- rily produces, have sought the clet gymati's sorrowful abode, aud at the hazard of their lives have made payment of their debts, because they could no longer endure the pain of being the agents in visiting the secret calamity on uncomplaining and blameless sufferers. But there are natures upon which the process of refinement has succeeded in obliterating the traces of compunction and mercy. The church of Rome has had many advocates—the ruthless ministers of her malignity in Ireland have found here, in the highest region of English sovietyan apo- logist, an associate. How does Mr Moore speak of the afflictions to whch undefended viet ims it, Ireland have been exposed ? In graceful sympathy ? With burning reprobation of their brutal and cowardly assassin? Alas! no! Had he done so he would have rendered service to the principle of good, and made compensation for many an outrage against morals and virtue. He did not make compensation. He wrote as one who glories in the dark murders which dis- grace his country—he wrote as one who teach murderers to think lightly of crimes, which he, their favored poet, commemorates, as if thev were matters forsport and levity. (Hearheat). Hehsbeenpleased to honour me with a notice, which, under other cir- cumstances, would have ensured my silence; but reasons, of too great moment to be discarded, unseal my lips to speak of the spirit ill which he discourses of crimes and sufferings which are a national calamity aud disgrace; and the notice by which his cruel irouieshavebjeurewarded. (Loudcheers). I abstaiu of course, from all reference to his observations oil me. Eveu his pasquinade, at least his late one, has not invested me with consequence enough to detain you on such a subject; but of the afflictions of a clergy to whom none deny praise, whom all confess to be most sorely wronged -he says, that I will tell To all who still the Church's par: take Tales of parsouic woe-llIat well Make even grim Dissenters' hearts ache. "Then, after utteriner some coarse and false calum- nies which here would be disregarded, but which might assist in exasperating a truculent spirit in Ireland against them, who, because they are known to be defenceless, can easily be made marks for malignant passion,he continues to say that I wi 11 make Of each a perfect martyf, Brought to the stake-i, e. a beef one, Of all their martyrdoms the chief one Though try them at this-tlit,. v,ll bear it, If tender, and washed down in claret." "This is the poetry of Mr Moore. Safe from dangvr-alfftictit in all the enjoyments of domestic life, of public favour, of powerful t"rieuds-thus he writes of the afflictions and wrongs of a class of men like the Protestant clerjjy of the south and west of frelatid-(hus he writes of men surrounded by brutal and pampered tormentors—thus he writes, whose words have, as he well knows, power to ex- asperate these remorseless enemies, and to point their fell passions towards unprotected victims. (Hear, hear). I did not think there could be found in any circle in England one individual who could be guilty of such an offence, so wanton, so heartless. (Hear, hear, and loud cheering). But why do I disgust you with the thought of it? Because the government, which will not give the famishing clerg-y of Ireland bread unless they purchase it by selling their souls, have pensioned the author of this unmanly sarcasm over their griefs, and over the scarce-closed graves of martyrs whose names shall endure for ever. Was this a time when a go- vernment, which desired good for the church in Ireland, should have chosen to pension its calum- niator? They knew Mr Moore's dserving"; for five years they had power to give him his award, and during the five years of power he was un- remembered or neglected but he insulted a virtuous and afflicted body of Christian men; he defamed them, he reviled, he made their sufferings the theme of unmanly merriment and as soon as he had disgraced his genius by his pusillanimous atro- city, he is lifted up into the sunshine of ministeiial faour, and Jarely pensioned. (Loud cheers.) Can a transaction such as this prove uninstructive ? Can you believe that you may safely abandon the care of the Protestant religion to a Ministry who have so distinguished themselves, identified themselves thus closely with the party whom leso4 than the destiuc- tion of Protestautism will not satisfy ?^ (Cries of "hear, hear.") If you value the blessings whic) have been bestowed upon you, you will guard them vigilantly you will guard them, not by attaching yourself to this party or to that, but by requiting that whosoever claims your support,, must satisfy you that he will guard your Protestant institutions. Dublin Record. STEAM ENGINE INIACHINERY.-Tile parliamen- tary trustees on the river Clyde have offered a premium of one hundred guineas for the best practical mode of preventing accidents from the imperfect construction of steam engine machineij. Another hundred pounds is to be divided amongst the unsuccessful candidates who invent something wor- thy of attention. PROVIDING FOR THE WOPST.-Tlie Jouanalde Calais states that an inhabitant of Southarllplon has recently been amusing himself by fillingl4,0j0 bottles with 6,000 copies of an abridgement of Universal History. The bottles, well corked and sealed, have, by his order, been placed in deep cavities in the iry caverns of Greenland, in the hope, should a pariial destruction of the globe again ensue, that they may survive the wreck and enlighten future ages, who would otherwise be ignorant of the events which have come to pass in this world. It is not stated in what language this bottle-conjurer has chosen to preserve the knowledge of the present race of mankind. A man named James Symons, seamen on board the brig Mary, then lying in Penzance Pier, bound for Wales, quilted the vessel a few days ago, and could not be prevailed on to go the voyage. On being asked his reasons for leaving, he said, in the presence of several persons, "I dreamt last Wednes- day that thebi-igwasgone to sea, and I was drowned; 'twas only a dream, but 1 never will go in her again." The Mary sailed on Wednesday forenoon, and before she was out of sight from the pier head, Symons ac- companied a person named Benson on an excursion in a small pleasure-boat, which they upset within five minutes aflerwards,close to the piel- head, owing to improper management on the part of Benson, who was with difficulty saved by a boat from the pier, whilst poor Symons sank to rise no lyr),.e.-Fulnioutli Packet. On the evening of Friday se'nnight, a chimney- sweeper, on his return through the vi'lageof Becken- ham, in Kent, from Elmer's End, where he had been to receive some money for a load of soot, was asked into the George public-house, by a person whom he had met in the morning, and foolishly informed of the business he was about. He joined a party of six, who amused him with songs till past nine o'clock, when two of them suddenly left the room. In about a quarter of an hour the whole party dispersed, and the sweep journeyed alone towards Sf uthend. He had not, however, advanced more than half a mile, when two men jumped over a hedge at the side of the road, seized him by the throat, threw him into a ditch, and robbed him of all his earnings, which he kept in a box in his pocket. The sweep returned to the village and mentioned what had happened, and an immediate pursuit was commenced. On Saturday morning the person who asked him into the public- house, and some of the men who had suddenly left it during the merry-making, were examined before the magistrates, and remanded till this day, in the course of which an important discovery is expected to be made. Those v ho attacked the sweep had stripped themselves to their shirts, no doubt to avoid detection from being marked with the soot, and during the whole conflict never uttered a word. On Monday he attended at the George to,meet the offi- cers, and to identify others of the gang, when he was informed by some of them, that if he remained there till nightfall, he need not expect ever to reach home arln.

Nay, he gives as lively a description of the person, qualifications, life and death of this divine man, as if he had copied the 53rd of tsaiali for he says (De Repub, 1. 2.) that thts just person must be poor and void of all recommen- datious but that of virtue alone; that a reicked toorld tvoutd not bear his instructions and reproof, and therefore, wiihin three or four years after he began to preach, he should be persecuted, im- prisoned, scourged, and at last put to death; his word is Jlnachindulen thesetai, that is, cut in piecos as they cut their sacrifices.

As Messrs Fletcher, Austin, Munyard, and their friends, were shooting rabbits in Abbey Wood, (the two former being in advance of the others, towards the Leather Bottle Inn, the rest of the party being down in the hollow) the dogs giving tongue, they fired in that direction, and most unhappily, Mr Austin, who had the misfortune previously to be deprived of his sight in one eye, received a shot in the other. He immediately exclaimed, "My God! I am in darknes" Mr Austin was taken to his home, at Bleadon Well, and at present there are not the least symptoms of a return of VisiOLI.-Greeriivich Gazette. A bricklayer and a labourer (the one an Englishman, named Steveuson, and the other an Irishman, named Jernaghty, both in the employ of Mr Alexander, of Bayswater) having quarrelled on Tue-day morning', agreed to decide their difference by a pugilistic contest. They accordingly repaired to a field at the back of Ivent-place, where, after a battle of 15 minutes' duration, the Irishman gave in, and the Englishman shook him by the hand and invited him to a beer-shop in the neighbourhood to drink down all animosity. After retailing them- selves for upwards of two hours they departed to return home. As they were passing along the upper end of Lisson-grove, Fernaghty picked up the half of a brick, and, sneaking up behind Stevenson, gave him so tremendous a blow with it on the back of the head, that the poor fellow dropped down as if he had been shot. Fernaghty immediately ran otf' and escaped. The friends of the wounded man quickly couveyed him to the house of a surgeon residing in the neighbourhood, who, upon examina- tion, found that his skull was so dreadfully fractured, that he advised his immediate removal to the hos- pital, where he now lies with but little hopes of recovery.
