POLITICAL SUMMARY,¡
POLITICAL SUMMARY, Aliother, another, and another still succeeds" may be said in the language of Shakespeare, of the Belgian Protocols, and if we mistake not, the last will not please either of the patties for whose special benefit it is intended. By the last arrival from Rotterdam, we are informed that both parties, DlIlchand BeigianF, 1-tai c received-it-with a sort of nndergi owl. which bespeaks the existence of any thing rather than satisfaction; and we should not be surprised if hostilities were again shortly to re- commence between the Dutch and, the "Brave Belges." Really, we cannot see how consistently with the principle of non-intervention, we can in- terfere between belligerent parties, upon matters affecting their own interests only. Let the Dutch and Belgians settle matters after their own fashion, L and the i-estilt is more likely to be permanently beneficial than the forced stipulations of a third party. If they consent through present fear to an arrangement which they both dislike, they willstfie the earliest opportunity of adjusting the matter after their own taste. All compacts of this nature are hollow and short-lived, because they want the principle of cohesion springing frorn tlie reciprocal satisfaction of the parties.—In Fiance there is a growing dislike to the present dynasty, and we may:shorlly expect to hear of another Brumal re. Distress stalks abroad through the South, mil the spirit of Carlism is spreading t hrough the Vendean provinces. In Paris, the Republicans are growing in numbers and in power, whilst disaffection, and a desire for change pervade the vast majority of that unsteady and mercurial people. The govern- ment are obliged to suppress some pieces brought out on the stage, and to fetter the press with in- creased restrictions, in-order to preserve a shew of authority. If Louis Philippe will not consent to become the head of a republic, he must, it is evi- dent, make way for Lafayette or some other revo- lutionary worthy, The state of things, at present, in France, is IN TRANSITU and merely provisional —the people have given the state machine an im- pulse, which will cot)iint)e despite the efforts of the government to arrest its progress. Revolutions in France are become mere pastimes from their frequency, and nothing could exceed the mortifica- tion and astonishment of the movement party in that country, when they found that no revolution foUowedthb rejection of the Reform Bill in this. —There is, we understand, a Metropolitan Union to be formed in London to school the Representa- tives of the people, and to overawe their 'delibera- tions. This is the same, in principle, as the Jaco- bin Club in Paris, in ninetr-I hree, and will lead to the same results, That distinguished patriot and consistent statesman, Sir Francis Burdett, who 'eulogised a military government and defended the system of rolten-beroughs, under the Duke of Wel- lingtort's administration, is to he installed Presi- dent, or Lord Protector, or some such lay dignitary. It is really ludicrous to see how the Whigs have been defeated by the thorough-going radicals, in several public meetings; and in Hull, at a public m meeting consisting of eight thousand persons, they had the audacity to pass a vote of censure on his iMajpsty's Ministers—"This was the unkindest cut of

Frulay last a County Meeting was held at Llandilo, convened by die High Sheriff, pursuant to a requisi- tion, toconsider the propriety of addressing the Crown on the sublet of Ilefortn. The address agreed to at tl.at meeting, will be found in our advertising columns, and allords pleasing evidence that the pro- prietors of the soil, are becoming more sensible of their own and their country's interest, than they were du- ring the popular frenzy of last spring. It is quite obvious to the most superficial observer, that there is a growing indifference to the bill, among those who have a stake 4n the county, and this address which is an ex- i' tremely temperate, generalizing- document, reflects cre- dit on i.ts authors. Those who were present at the Spring Meeting well remember the eternal cuckoo note of" the bill, the whole bill, and nothing but the hill," which was the alpha and omega of all the speeches delivered on the subject and they will pro- bably-hear with surprise that the address does notcon- tainone syllable about that defunct paragon of legisla- 0 tive wisdom. The paucity of Hen tIe men Freeholders at Llandilo, is also decisive proof of a reaction in the public mind, and although we are willing to admit the respectability and consideration of the gentlemen, n'hose names will be seen appended to the resolutions, yet the reccurrence of the same names, in moving them demonstrates, the truth of our assertion that the attendence was a thin one. YVe always thought that the gentlemen of this county, distinguished as thev are for intelligence and for patriotism, would sooneror iater see the species of political suicide, they were committing in at] vocating a measure would inevitably destroy the political prepondance which the agricultural interest now enjoy. Our readers Will forgive us for omitting the speeches as they did not strike us as possessing any extraordinary interest. The payelr of the petition is for some practicable measure of Reform, in accord- ance with tho true principles of the constitution The Carmarthen meeting in the "order and modera- tion" of their proceedings, have shewn a laudable de- sire of following the recommendation of tite King's speech, and by their studied silence on the subject of the late bill have in effect pronounced a vote of condem- nation on it. The results of the different contested elections are also proving that the whole bill" intoxi- cation is passing away, and thatlhe appeal from Philip, drunk to Philip sober, is such as to cheer all true] friends of the oonstitution. The Lord Bishop of St. Divid's has been pleased to institute the Rev. W. Bowen, P. C. of Emasharold and curate of Kentchurch, in Herefordshire, to the vicarage of Hay, in the county of Brecon, Oil the ill-e- sc.itation of Sirs. Aiacnamara &Rev.

Ths pieces produced and in preparation are all of sterling merit, and they are got up in a supertor manner. Our limits this week preclude a detailed notice of the different performances, antlwe must there- fore content ourselves with remarking that the parts were well filled and the actors acquitted themselves ably and successfully.

(Jiouow, and After the County Accounts were audited and allowed, ) aa appeal was heard, wherein the inhabitants of the parish of St. Andrews, Glamorganshire, were appel- lants, and the inhabiiants of the parish of Morelyneh, in Somersetshire, were respondents. The pauper was the only witness examined by Mr. Richards on the part of the appellants, who failed to pi-ove servitude for one year, and the order of removal was confirmed, with costs.—Charles Lawrence was found guilty of stealing a watch and some wearing apparel from on board the ship Gratitude, lying in the harbour of Swansea, the property of Robert Ashton, the master, and was sentenced to seven years' transportation beyond the seas; Timothy Callaghan, indicted for stealing a watch, waistcoat, and a hat, from William Burk, of Swansea, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to seven years' transportation. William O'Neil was found guilty of stealing a silver watch from David Morris, ot Llandeveilog, Carmarthenshire, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment, to be kept to hard labour during five months, and the remaining four weeks in solitaryconlinement. Joseph Davies, found guilty of stealing a watch from the house of David Williams, 011 the Strand, Swansea, was recommended to mercy by the Jury on account of his youth. A true bill was also jound against him for stealing another watch from David Rees, but no evidence was offered on this charge. He was sentenced to four months' imprisonment, to be kept to bard labour and solitary confinement every other week. When the prisoner was informed, that he might challenge any of the Jurv, they were called, if e,' id objections to any of them. he replied, I do not likeanyof them," and adeled, that he would rather have the former Jury, who had just acquitted another Joseph Davies, John Williams, for stealing a hat from the Swansea steam-packet, the property of Mr, Charles Jenkins, was found guilty, but recommended to mercy on account of its being so small, a thing." He was sentenced to three tilotitli.4, imprisonment and hard labour. William Jones, for stealiug-two loaves of bread from William Walker, of Swansea, pleaded guilty, and said he was very hungry. He was sentenced to one weeks' imprisonment, and to he pri- vately whipped. Joseph Davies,of Aberdare, indic,edi tor stealing a shovel from John Hopkins, of the same place and Hannah Tliomas, ifidicted for stealing Ar- ticles of household furniture, during the riots at Mer- thyr, from Thomas, of Merthyr, Sheriff's officer, were acquitted.—Mr: Wm. Jones, Thomas Webb, Eustance Rees, and Edward Llewellyn, were charged on suspi- cion of stealing three ducks. The Foreman and the Grand Jury, on returning the bill ignored, regretted that such a frivolous charge should have been brought before them. The Session was concluded at eight o'clock on the same day. Sir IV, W. Wynn has appointed John Jones Wil- liams, of Dolgelley, in the county of Merioneth, gen- tleman, Clerk of the Peace, for the county of Merioneth, in the room of David Anwyl, gentleman, deceased. SAVAGE BKHTAMTY.—On the night of Friday, the 14th inst. some inhuman monster got into the stable of William Jones, an industrious carrier, of Merthyr Tydfil, and gashed and cut the poor man's horse in a manner unheard of before in this country. The shoulder hone was laid completely open, and various other parts of the wretched animal in long gashes, as deep as the bone. No suspicion exists as totheinfernal author of this refinement 011 cruelty. The poor animal (which was the owner's only means of support), was imme- diately destroyed, to put an end to his sufferings. We are happy to state that the manure gathered by s weeping the streets of this town, was sold at different times during the year, and ttie. total amount was not less than XSO, thereby reducing the Poor Rate accordingly. The bill which Mr. J. W. Boiler introduced to ex- empt cattle and other beasts from payment of toll when going to or from water or pasture, or to and from being shod or farried, and not passing more than two miles r' on the road, has received the J'oyal assent, and comes into operation immediately. i A duel took place on Saturday between the Hon. R. F. Greville, the rejected candidate for Pembrokeshire, and J. Jones, Esq M. P. for Cannartlmn. They met atTa vern Spite, when Mr. Greville-tired at Mr. Jones, who discharged his pistol in the air, but would make no apology, stating that the firing might go on as long as his antagonist pleased. The parties were then separa- ted. —Standard. v DESTRUCTION OF THE TWO MORAVIAN SETTLEMENTS1 IN BAKBADOES —Tiiis awful visitation of Providence took place on the 11th of August last, and was attend- ed with the most disastrou^oiiseqiient'es to the peace- j tui ^Moravian brethren. 'j'fí¡fnufllht'" of negroes under tiieir constant and vigilant superintendence increased during the last 10 years from 250 to 915, and 200 cbil- dren were receiving Sunday and weekly instruction. Such was the condition of* these Settlements on the evening of the lOthof August; hut before the morning- dawned, they were desolated by the irresistible fury of the storm, and-lay in ruins. Nearly the whole of the property of the M issioharics and their wives have been destroyed. The loss cannot tie estimated at less than tioin -1,000 to ^&-o,0b0 sterling. '1 hey are most anx- ious to repair those losses, but are IrIIOJly destitute oil tunds we, theiefore, hope that the friends of religion, and those who love our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in sincerity, will come forward according to their abi- lity, and assist these disinterested and persevering- I Ministers who devote themselves, without reward, to promote the most important interests of 36,000 of the ignorant and negro race principally inhabiting- British colonies, not to mention their 110 less disinterested labours in South Africa, in Greenland, and Labrador. W I understand that any subscription or donation will be most thankfully received for these excellent Mis sions, at tho Bank of Messrs. Waters, Jones, and Co. in this town. The Carmarthenshire Harriers will meet on Tuesday next, at White Mill, 011 the Llandilo road, and on Fri- day, at the Windmill, each morning at 10 o'clock. i lie Pembrokeshire Fox Hounds meet on Monday next, at Picton Castle on Thursday, at Walton East, We have given, in our fourth page a most important official document from the Gazette, relative to that ter- rible scourge, the Cholera, which, in all human proba- bility, will ere long visit Great Britain. The rcmla- tions enjoined by the authority of his Majesty's Go- vernment are, no doubt, the best that can be devised, and we earnelitlv recommend them to the serious at- tention of all person" of authority and influence. They are, it is true, of an alaniiirrg tendency, and per- sons of weak nerves will be seriously affected by them. Sti))" it is better to err on the side of cittition tliin of* false confidence, and we therefore think that the pub- lication of the document referred to was a judicious step on the part of the Government. The' English public may gather hopes from the fact, tint, 113 the cholera has advanced into the better regulated and more c.viiized nations of Europe, where food and clothing are more plentiful and wholesome, whete the! people are of more cleanly habits, and where medical assistance of the most skilful kind, is at I lost much of its virulence, has become less fatal than it ivas among the miserable natives of India, and the filtny. barbarians of Russia. There is good reason to believe that the cholera will carry off very few of the inhabitants of England. PEMBROKESHIRE ELECT'Iox.—Haverfordwest; Oct. a Correspondent.)—This Ejection has terminated, and Sir John Owen's triumph owr his enemies has been complete. Attended as the opposition was with 110 real principle for its support, but origi- nating from private malignity only, it could r.ot be c: pected that Mr. Greville ever could have attained suc- cess. Indeed from beginning to end, the urtaintv of Sir John's return was considered clear. — Owing tlle Assessor, Mr. Serjeant Russell, having decided on not admitting indiscriminately the votes of promissorv: leaseholder, which at the May Flection, were persons of the lowest description," Sir John Owen began on I Friday and Saturday polling with success his unpolled freeholders, and on the evening- of the latter day he was 109 a-liead on the gross poll. This indnced Mr. Gre- ville to decline proceeding further with the contest, and thus, to reverse the language of the Globe, have "honor, consistency, and principle" triumphed, and we trust. for ever over consummate fraud, chicanery," low-bred trickery and the grossest political dis- honesty" ever displayed. We really expected that the I101101 able gentleman would have taken an opportunity of publicly addressing" the freeholders on his with- drawing from the contest; but in this we were dis. appointed, as he left the field for another jidd, where his attempts to conquer proved equally abortive. Jt. is impossible to express the rejoicings of the Pembroke- shire folks on their having once more achieved their independence, despite the titled few who wish- d to lord it over them. Monday presented an animating seen? in when Sir John Owen was "drawn into that town preparatory to his being chaired. Hun- dreds of gentlemen on horseback, wearing their orange bows in their breasts, met him a short way from the town, and forming themselves into a procession, rode in front of his carriage, which was drawn by the ex- ulting populace to the Castle Inn, fiom whence he dent to the iviiei-e the High Sheriff pro- claimed him the sitting member, amidst the deafening cheers of his constituents. He returned them his sin- cere thanks, pledging himself to support again the Reform Bill, whenever Ministers may be pleased to introduce it. His chairing afterwards took place throughout the town; but we regret to add that some savage miscreant, while he passed through Hill-street, •aimed, but happily unsuccessfully, several stores at him from a stable yard near the place. Immediately several persons scaled the walls of some adjoining pre- mises, in the hope of ascertaining the quarter from whence the stones came, but ineffectually. Luckily indeed was it that the wretch escaped so well, or a sacrifice of his life would assuredly have taken place by the infuriated persons who went it) -ills pursuit We are happy in saying that now row whatever took place with the lower orders during the election,—every thing- passed on quite peaceably. This ran be attributed to the dispensing on both sides with music, which was the sole means list election of creating all the rows that took place.
