Standard (From the Timas.) This is a critical moment for the ministers, and, by necessary consequence, for tbe Reform Bill, and for tbe country of bringing his Sovereign into contempt -of corrupting the minds of those around mm of opposing the real interests of his fellow countrymen, er of studying how he might cringe to the pewere that be, and give his vote in favour of a measure ha in the exercise of his best judgment deemed perilous in its consequences No, for if there I one amongst his noble order, to whom his country might look for a just and disinterested vote, or his Sovereign for firm counsel and unfailing support, that one, I dare be held enough to assert, is the present victim of political malevolence. Lord Howe; since I feel confident that no known circumstance of his life would lead to a different conclusion. Lei these who have thus trampled on the rights of the noble and free-born, and persecuted the faiihful and the manly for a firm and uncempromisiug adhesion to his caose the cause of justice and virtue let them and all his accusers, I say, ask those distinguished friends amongst whem it has been his happy lot te mingle, whether or no they can allege one single circumstance against him, or point out one blot In his escutcheon, and 1 shall be much mistaken indeed, if their united voice is not raised in his honour and behalf. Let them, I repeat, go amongst his tenants as I have done, and they will find him held forth as an example for landlords. Let them visit the cottages of the poor in the neighbourhood of his that they may read his history in his people's eyes, and hear the simple and warm effusions of gratitude from hearts sensible of his dat's post Ivcvl.

TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN, TO THK 1TD1TOR Or THE MOUNlNu HEBAL1). Mr. Editor, The present crisis renders it necessary that should intrude as little as possible en your time hut the observations of yoor Dublin correspondent, M.F. require on my part some reply. In the first place, I beg to assure r.

that Al. 15. is not gbot irom the Colletre Brunswick Club, tht if he be at all in the world of npirits, it in us the shade of one of those personages who were in the habit of weekly haunting a certain build 5'g on Bury-unay, called amongst mortals the Cora Exchange. Generally I am at issue with M. P.

as to the right of those of our university incorporated at the English ones. Oxford and Cambridge are not step, mothers, and bestow on their adopted children the same rights and privileges as they doou their own alumni. A to the term Mob oi" voterK," metbinks this te to 2,000 Masters of Arts oemea with a very bad grace from an advocate tor the bill, me whole bill, and nothing but the bill." M. P. styles the University of Dublin an inferior one to her English sisters.

What, is this tbe esprit du corps of the scholars ell indeed may site be inferior if those amongst the most favoured of her children run her down, and in the words of Swift, For thcra, a disobedient varlet, Treatett thy mother like a But the holnrs area liberal and enlightened body. I recollect but one ont of theirs, as a body, separate from the fellows, et ex una ditce omncs. In the year 1821, the late King honoured the University of Dublin by dining with the corporation, as part of which the scholars were entitled to partake of the banquet in the same hall. The board, knowing the high and polished manners of the sovereign, as well as his admiration of those qualities in others, uud, no doubt, fearing the gentleman-like deportment and elegant refinement of the scholars might divert the entire flood of Royal patronage from themselves, entered into a negotiation with that body, to persuade them to forego their right, and dine in another hall. The scholars did consent, and what did they stipulate for Hear it, ye advocates of their liberality, aud good feeling they agreed to the terms ef the board on this condition, and on tins eny, that all the other students, graduates, and tinder-graduates, should be excluded from the King's presence, iu the library, where the board wished to admit all having their names on the College books.

Yet this is the body to whom tbe senate, the church, the bar, and the two medical colleges are to give way. M. P. very sophistically couples Mr. Maxwell's name with the exclusion of Roman Catholics the resolution signed by that geutlemsn, as chairman of a meeting of graduates, did not mention Roman Catholics, but it stated that coiilining the franchise to scholars alone excluded aR the rank, talent, and influence of the University from the constituency;" and to every man of eaky politics, Mr.

ax well's name will bear the weight which will be always attachedto nn accomplished scholar and a gentleman, and to one of the few of noble family who remain for their education in their native land. So for is M. P. an advocate of that honourable member's opinions on politics geoerally, that from local ci renin, stances he has had opportunities more than once of regis, lering, in the most constitutional and decisive nviuiier, his entire dissent from them.

Lieut. Colonel Galindo, Governor of Poten, in central America, has discovered the ruins of an extensive city, called Palenque, which extends for more tl.in 20 miles along the tuimrnit of the ridge which separates the coon-try of the wild Maya Indians (included in the district of Poten) from the state of Chiapas. These, in the words of the discoverer, writing the Literary Gazette, "must anciently have embraced a city and iu suburbs. The principal buildings are erected on tbe roost prominent height, and to several of them, if nut ta all, BtAim were constructed. From the hollows beneath, the steps, as well as all the vestiges which time has left, are wholly of stone aod plaster." The stones, of which all the edifices are built, are about 18 inches long, 9 broad, and 2 thick, cemented by mortar, and gradually inclining when they form a roof, but always placed horizontally the outside eaves are supported by large stones, whicli project atioui two feet.

(These are precisely similar, from the description, to the stoue-roofed chapels, three or four in number, at i Glendalough, St. Doologb's, near Dub. lin, and we believe one other, still existing in lie. laud.) The wood work has all disappeared the win. dows are many, subject to no particular arrangement, being merely small circular and square perforations.

Human figures in alto relievo are frequent on small pillars and fillagree work, imitating boughs aud feathers, is perceptible in places. Some of the sculptured ornaments look very like the Corinthian foliage of the ancient architects. The ruins are buried iu a thick forest, and the adjacent country, for leagues, contains remains of tiie undent labours of the people bridges, reservoirs, monumental inscriptions, The natives say these edifices were built by the devil." An alarming conspiracy has been discovered among the buck population in the slave states in America. The following appear to be the authentic particulars yet known Ou Sunday, the 4th insL, the first information of the contemplated rising of tbe blacks was sent from South Washington. The disclosure was made by a free mulatto man to Mr.

Usher, of Washington, who sent the information to Mr. Kelly, of Duplin. It appears from the mulatto's testimony, that Dave, a slave belonging to Mr. Morissey, of Sampson, applied te him to join the conspirators; stated that tb negroes in Sampson, Duplin, and New Hanover, were regularly organized and prepared to riie on the 4th of October. Dave was taken up, and on this testimony convicted.

After his conviction, he made a confession of the above to his master, aud, in addition, gave the names of the four principal ringleaders in Smpion and Dupliti, and several iu Wilmington, and named several families that they intended to murder. Their object was to march by two routes to Wilmington, tpreudiug destruction and murder on their way. At Wil-mington they expected to be reinforced by 2000, tn supply themselves with arms aud ammunition, and then re. tarn. Three of the ringleaders in Duplin have beeu taken, and Dave aud Jim executed.

There are 23 negroee in gaol in D-ipliu county, all of them no doubt concerned in the conspiracy. Several have been whipped, and some released. In Sampson 25 are in gaol, all concerned directly or indirectly in the plot. The excitement among tho people iu Sampson is very great, and increasing 5 ibey are taking effectual measures to arrest all suspected persons. A very intelligent nugro preacher, named David.

was put ou his trial to. day, and clearly convicted by the testimony of another negro. Thu people were so much enraged that they scarcely could be prevented from shooting him ou his passage from the court.house to ilia gaol All the made induce tbe belief that the couspi rators were all ergauised, and their plans well understood in Duplin, Sampson, Waino, New Hauover, ami Lenoir. Nullung bad transpired to raise even a suspicion that thuy extended into Cumberland or Bladen, except that Jim confessed that Nat, Colonel Wright's negro (who had been missing since the discovery of the plot), had gone to B. Wright's, iu the neighbourhood of Fayetteville, to raise a company to join the conspirators.

The rumours respecting Urge force having been seeu collecting together are unfounded, though there seems doubt but tluit small armed bauds have been seen. I caunot believe that any danger i to be apprehended, where tho citiseus are so constantly on laa watch, and teirsne such rigorous measures towards the offenders. Tho Raleigh Star of a are oui iu ample lore. Tbe 5th mentions that 21 uegioea had been tinpnstmeu a etiargo oi being aoncerned in prolM rebellion, and the National lu-J urlhgeneer adds, by way of comment, that Edenton ia KM) miles from Southampton county, the ioene of the In. I surrectioD in Virginia, and nearly 200 miles from Duplin and Sampson countie, in North Carolina.

The almwst contemporaneous out-breaking of the Insurrectionary 1 spirit, in places so distant from each other, the most alarming feature iu the whole affair." fFrnm the Morning fast The prorogation of parliament till after Christmas is an arrangement reasonable, uecesary, and we should have thought unobjectionable. Independently of various ori.t ciin.Mt)intioii, the fatigue which all parties have undergone during a year, unprecedented in this respect in parliamentary annals, appears of itself to constitute a sufficient reason why the usual respite, at least, from labour should be allowed. The reforming journals, however, rage aud protest, and demand that parliament should be summoned again early in No. vember Rendered insolent and haughty by the court that has so injudiciously been paid to them they doubtlessly reckon on compelling Lord Grey to abandon his present purpose but violence, threats, aud blustering we cannot but hope will in this instance prove unavailing. The anxiety of the radical journalists is na tural enough.

hey chiefly thrive by the excitement and agitation of the popular mind; and of courve view with considerable apprehension the threatened return of tranquillity and sobriety. They know it is only with the utmost difficulty that the embers of the tiame which lately biased throughout thecouutry are preserved from utter extinction. Till the beginning of next month agitation might be kept ali vp, and great hopes might be entertained of renewed excitation, by the introduction of another Reform Bill at that period. But the middle or end of January What is to become of agitation during all that time Obviously, we answer, it cannot be sustained the public mind will by that time have become thoroughly cooled, and will be ready to investigate the important question of a change iu the constitution of parliament deliberately, calmly, and dispassionately. This will, of course, be a state of things not at all suitable to the purposes or interests of the advocates of the brickbat-and-bludgeon system.

(From the same.) Most heartily do we rejoice at the result of the Dorsetshire election just concluded, affording as it does a conclusive proof of the returning good tense aud of the sound understanding of the people. Notwithstanding the whole influence and most streuuoux exenions of the ministry iu favour of Mr. Ponsonby (whicli so decidedly prevailed tinder the late artfully created delmiou), the constitutional cmdidRte, Lord Ashley, has triumphantly carried his election by a majority of 30. The numbers at tbe final close of the poll were for Lord Ashley 104" for Mr. Ponsonby 1811.

(From the Morning Chronicle.) The subject of Earl Howe's dismissal was last night mooted in parliament by Mr. R. Trevor. It had been stated by Lord J. Russell, in ans to a question put by Mr.

Trevors few nights ago, that Earl Howe havng tendered his resignation, it had beeu accepted. This was a genteel way of stating that he had been dismissed, for no one could suppose that Karl Howe's delicacy was so exces. sive that, without any external stimulus, it would, after the vote he had given, suggest to him the propriety of resignation. During the Peninsular war, our army was at first encumbered by a number of useless officers, many of them high in rank from their parliamentary interest. The Duke of Wellington, who limit boroughmouering so convenient at home, was somewhat ruffled with the fruits it brought forth abroad and in order to get rid of these officer, the story goes, that he set Sir George Murray on them, who used recommend to them to apply to Lord Wellington for leave of absence, which was crdially granted for a due length of time.

No one mistook tbe cause, hut courtesy required that it should be stated they had received leave of absence. People supposed in like manner that Earl Howe had only requested leave to resign, because he had ascertained that he could uot lie allowed to remain in office. However, Mr. Trevor, like an individual to whom he bears more than a distaut resemblance, was determined to find a mare's nest, if there was one. Last night he came armed with a letter from Earl Howe, which he was to make whatever nse of he liked, except the insertion of it in the public papers.

But it is inserted i Aye, but it is inserted by a violation of a standing order of thehonse. Mr. Trevor could not suppose that it would find its way into the paper aud Earl Howe, that any printer would be so audacious as to set the orders of the house at defiance. His lordship in this communication, which he, no doubt, supposes will excite a strong feeling of indignation throughout tbe country, tells the world, that in the month of May last, and for tbe second time, he intimated his intention of npptming the Reform Hill, and his readiness to resign that he received iu reply a most gracious command to retain his office, and a distinct recognition of his privilege of being perfectly independent of any government, from the circumstnnce of his being in her Majesty's household that he did not, therefore, resign and that nothing but the positive request of Lord Grey aud his colleagues to the King for his removal has beeu the cause of that removal. That Lord Grey should request his removal after his vote against tbe Reform Bill, was only justice to his own administration.

The world btame him, not for going too far in cluiming the support of those who receive the public money, but for impolitic forbearance towams them. In fact, the public money has been liberally expended in maintaining opponents to l.is government. His Majesty never could suppose, when he bestowed his confidence on Earl Grey, that lie could perform impossibilities, that he could conduct the government without the support of those maintained at the public expenoe. We have spoken of this dismissal elsewhere. A'e-dard.

(From the Morning Herald-.) Strange at it must appear, notwithstanding all that has passed and is passing in every part of this country, there are persons still to le found who maintain that the excitement, or, more properly speaking, the anxiety of the people for an effective measure of reform, is dying away thatit is alreadygiviug place to indifference, if uot to aversion. Colonel Trench told t)e of Commons so last night Sir Charles Wetherell tells them so every night. But Sir Charles is a privileged man. Nobody expects polititwl reasoning, or even un aptitude to the reception ot political facts, from the jester of the Duke oi Newcastle and though Colonel Trench, as the architect of his own reputation, has a right to choose what model he pleases, we would suggest, as a matter of taste, that he should study something less extravagant than the broad outline of Sir Charles VVetherell's assertions, if he would build a character of sagacity for bis own particular use and enjoyment. At present, however, the two legislators staud committed to tbe same startling proposition, that the people of England are too sensible to wish for such a thing as reform.

So sav tho individuals we have named but let any for discretion let the Duke of el, the greatest captain or the let either of them stake his ilaration at this moment, and he will acquire by the experi-ublic will adopt his opiniou of man who has a cliaracte Wellington or Sir greatest constable of the i character upon such a see what sort of charai-tt ment; see whether tbe itself, or roceed to form a new opinion of him ied out of the gross elements of such a mis-i Wa could excuse the Lords as a body, barricaded as they are against common sense uud daily experience by the forms which cut them off from the rest of the world we could excuse the Lords for mistaking and reversing the actual state of thiugs hut that men who mix in society should say their t. citiseus are content when they are burning wiih indignation betrays a degree of weakness, or prejudice, or wroog-headeduess, amounting Almost to insanity; and yet there are such men It is possible to conceive by what master pas. sion such men are misled but it would not be easy to suggest by what lemedy they may be restored to reason, for they have already withstood the strongest appeal by resisting tbe evidence of their own seuses. It may appear useless to refer them again to facts which have passed over without making any impression on their minds but we would defy them to reconcile existing symptoms with the imputed indifference of the public. People may ilk uf indiffurence they may impute indifference but let them prove it.

Take the two houses of parliament take the newspapers take the daily conversations iu all circles and what do they prove Why that, loug as is the period which has elapsed since the Reform Bill was first introduced, it is still the subject uppermost in every Blind. Go where vre we bear of nothing else. Directly or incidentally it forces itself into all companies, aud almost into evory conversation The newspapers, even the anti-reform newspapers, dare not omit it, on pain of being rejected and unread. Reform is to tbe political world wbut the air we breathe is to the world of nature and animation; it mixes with every act, and becomes, as it were, a condition, and even a prt, of our existence. The common tendency of repetition to weary and exhaust the mind is suspended by Uiu overwhtlmiug interest of this one great question aud yet we are told that the people are indifferent to its fate.

But those who have eyes and ears, and will allow them tbe fair exercise of their functions, ill not confound the silence of anxiety with that of indifference or rtpose. The people are tranquil, for they are full of hope and expectation they are tranquil, for they are full of confidence.

Sir I wa greatly surprised to see, in yoor respectable paper of Taesdey lail, a statement that three-fourths of the Maidstone Troop of Yeomanry Cavalry had or were going to tend in their resignation such a statement is a libel upon the troop.

The fact is, one individual made an attempt to get others to sign the document preceding the above statement in yoor Just journal, but never succeeded in a single instance. 1 am not certain I k.tif 1 linn, it huK "ucr or no ytv been a matter of great surprise from what motive hs joined the corps. The members of Lord Marritam'i troop, I am fully persuaded, give their services to the country npen much higher ground than to suffer any political question to interfere With their duty I am, sir, your humble servant, A Memjes of the l'moop. We readily give insertion to the above communication, as direct contradiction of the false statement imposed upon us last week by a member of the Mote Troop, who must have known such statement to have been palpably incorrect. We dare not trust ourselves to express our feelings on this insulting occasion, insulting to the noble captain and the whole corps, as well as to ourselves we leave him to the reproofs he so justly merits, whilst we deeply regret having been the means of circulating a report so derogatory to the good sense and principles of the gentlemen who have enrolled themselves solely for the bench and honour of their country.

Editor of aid-Horn Journal THE KENTISH YEOMANRY. (From the Kentish To the Hon. J. D. Bligh, Captain West Kent Yeomanry Cavalry.

Sir, A report having been circulated in this neighbourhood, to the effect that the members of the Rochester division of the Cobhara troep, under your command are about to retire tlurefrom," we the undersigned members of the said division, feel it due ourselves, as well as to the reputation of the corps, to repeat to you our assurances, that our best energies shall be exerted, in concert with the local magistracy, to support the laws iu preservation of the public peace, and forward the aaxiou.fy expressed determination of his Majesty's government, to protect persons and property against outrage and violence. SIS From motives of loyalty to our King, and attachment to the British constitution, we enrolled our names as members of this Constitutional Association, without reference to party or politics, and we conceive that to withhold our humble assistance, or seek an excuse for retiring, at a crisis like the present, we should tdrfeit the good opinion of our country, and bring down dishonour upon ourselves. Rochester, Oct. 17, 1831. There spoke the spirit of Kentthese are the sentiments of her true sons.

The Kentish yeoman feels the fire of patriotism glow within his Ijosom. Before its bright light fades the full glare of party flume. His word is girt on to serve no private feuds no factious purposes he is the bold and firm defender of the throne end the laws he defends them not only for himself, but for the people, lie knows them to be essential to their welfare, and he will defend them even from their maduess. Can it be believed that men should have taken tbe gurb of this voluntary, this noble, this truly constitutional force and have been so ignorant of its duties, as to suppose it was to be prostituted to mere party purposes? Can it be believed that men entered themselves in that noble band under the pahry notion that they did so to support Lord Grey's administration Surely the letter we have Been must have been a hoax. Yet it is (riven in apparently sober seriousness.

Beit bo and thanks to the events which have purified the corps from these whose place can be instantly filled with patriots good and true. The Chisiehurst troop have had a happy deliverance. A man takes the duties of a yeoman to support a party and such a parLy an administration, whose official fanctionaries co-operate with Jacobin clubs, under the name ef Political Unions. Soldiers such as these, it tliis be their real ground of resignation, we want not neither do we want those, who wish to resign the moment there appears a chance of their services beiug required, and their courage tried. Let them go to France, and serve the Jacobin clubs there though we suspect a better metal will lie desired thsre.

Let them, then, stay in England, and live under the scorn of their country let them remain asmouutnents of the effects which Whig politics have upon our national character and feelings. Let them hear their sentence in tbe prompt and high-minded reply of a British peer, who, though a strong reformer, and even voter for the bill, felt his Kentish spirit roused at such narrow views and upon being informed that some in his corps were infected with the same folly end spostacy, replied, Tell me even one who it wavering upon such a course, and he shall not have a opportunity to resign he shall not be in tiie corps another tour." Such will be the feeling of every Englishman, of whatever political feeling, who hears of this Wretched party of party yeomen. Kent does not want such yeomen. Sbe wants men, not milksops she wants patriots, not partisans. A Kentish yeoman knows no party but his country no authority but his King no enemy but the enemy of the laws, the liberties, the property, and tbe happiness, of his fellow subjects.

We recommend his Mwjesty to form into a separate corps these doughty heroes, who have withdrawn their Saleable services from the maintenance of the laws, and proclaimed that their patriotism reaches no farther than the incapable administration. Their banner ahidl be a trl-eoiuur Petticoat mourned on a Broom -stick, embroidered with a Grey goose and white feathers. As they no longer belong to tbe Kentish Inviota, they shall bo denominated the Incapable Yeomanry. TO THE EIMTOR OF THE STANDARD. Sir, It has been the disgraceful fashion of late, with A certain pseudo liberal part of the public press, to impute the most unworthy and corrupt motives to those who have exercised tbe privilege of thinking for themselves, in acting contrariwise to the prevalent violent opinions of the day.

That such should be the condrn of some, whose liberality consists in their very profuse distribution of abuse, is not to be wondered at, when the blessiugs resulting from the marh of intellect and the consequences of the schoolmaster being abroad, are uken into the account; hut that any one laying claim to the character of a man of sense and integrity, and possessing intelligence enough to discern that a peer as well as a plebeian may have enough left to discriminate between right and wrong, should so far forget hiimelf and his readers, as to indulge in this low and scurrilous abuse, to the manifest disgrace of himself and the Injury of the feelings of others, isj indeed a matter to be marvelled at. To lend ourselves in any way to a party, Serve a mere party purpose, is sufficiently dishouour-hlo of iticlf; but when to this is added the odium nd disgrace consequent on doing the dirty work of a party, by reviling iu opponents, and connecting their names with every thing mean and dishonourable, surely nothing can be more unworthy the nature, character, and dignity of man, than such a course of conduct would Imply. I have been led to these remarks, by observiug of a growing disposition on the part of certain editorial gentlemen to desecrate much that is worthy honour in the churcht and te do dishonour to many who are illustrious ornaments to the state. Among those whom it hath pleased these libera minded panders to the public, to signal out as fit marks for popular animadversion and public scorn, I Perceive with deep regret the name of one who for years has pursued the noiseless and yet truly noble tenwur of his way, dignifying the privacy of retired life, by all the amenities and graces of the lowly minded Christian, and adorning the rank he holds in ooiftty, by the practice of the most exited virtues. The nobleman to whom 1 Uutle is Lerd Howe, and though far from wishing to the uncalled for pnuegyriit of any ope, and eoosptotu how little 1 am fitted to play the part of an apologist, till I caunot suffer him to fall into the hands of these Vandals of a party, to be abused and insulted as they 'ink fit, without raising my feeble voice in his behalf, nice i k.iojr him to be in every way as undeserving of their Mains, as he isj undesirous their adu-htihm.

At one time we receive an ungentle hint that a Certuiti nobleman, high in her Majesty's household, is ertly endeavouring to thwart the wishes of hit royal master at another that a noble lerd high in her Ma- Jesty-g favour had better attend to the duties of his fiee, and leave state affairs to themselves and, after a variety of paltry insinuations, as false a they are low, comes a sweeping snathenm on his conduct, cou pled with pretty plain recommendation, that tbe nolle rl be forthwith ejected from an office be has held to the honour of himself and the full satisfaction of his royai A few dayB elapre and we are given to Understand, that this master-piece of mob policy ns been carried into effect, that Ixird Howe has re "gned. and that his resignation has been accepted so 'r envv ami hatred have done their best, their aim has heu achieved, and his neiecutors are at rest. But v. by these vile insinuations, these paltry fears, these Unmanly taunts, these miserable gibes and sneers, this cut and' thrust work in the this politic advice deprive rim of an ofiice he held but to Wn tempora, mores I was to be apprehended that he could be thought capable of "Ascending from his high estate, ta eonrt the favour of tbe vulgar, bv acting either in concert with their wishes, as tbsy themselves would have done, had they been in hit situation Was it to be supposed tltat he could be (bough, cap of nlofiiag; ia Htcra uu ruin of his the peace of England. If Lord Grey and his colleagues will exercise but ordinary skill and spirit, they cannot lose the stake which the natiou has intrusted to them, because the game is on their cards they have only to play them in ti natural order.

A revoke, indeed, may ruin every thing but a revoke is never possible but from gross neglect or actual intention, neither of which can, in the present case, he imagined. We observe that there are some persons who believe that the House of Lords may be conciliated by another bill but how are they to be reconciled Their objection was tbe popular tendency of the measure that is, its tendency to restore to the people too much of that which the borough monger-aristocracy had extorted from them. Then, how, according to human possibility, can the framers of such objections be conciliated towards a new Bill of Reform, except by making that bill less popular than the preceding one, by so constructing it that under its operation tbe aristocracy shall be permitted to retain in their hands a proportion of the national righu and privileges, which the old bill would have bound them to surrender In plainer phrase, how can the new bill be made more acceptable to the Lord, unless it be made less acceptable to the Uritish nation But the Lords are alarmed, aud more ready to on-cede than formerly and when they see that the people are fully bent upon reform, they will retract their votes, and say 'ay' to Lord Grey's new measure." This, we fear, is mere delusion. The Tory lords have seen loug enough ago that the people were fully bent upon reform. It was not in ignorance or in blindness that the truth was ever disputed but the Tory lords flattered themselves, and still do so, that however bent upon reform the people might be, there would lie no doubt of their own ability to unbeud them, by showing on their (the Tory) side, a determination iuveterately hostile to all reform which should impair the borutigh-mougering power.

The people," said they, are fickle the ministers are weak or lukewarm the court is a furnace of intrigues against them so, staud out a little longer, the bill is lost, and we triumph 1 It is utterly childish to blink the matter. Whatever be the mode, or species, or variety uf the application, some application in the nature of -additional power must le adopted, or the Tories will laugh at the petitions of the people uf England, or die arguments of the press, or the most formal and best constructed measures of the ministers with a view to that great national teenrity. We then, would earnestly, and iu a spirit of hearty and true attachment to their prufessed policy, beseech the King's ministers to beware of hoping too much from time or conciliation. In our bumble opiniou, to give much time is to risk much intrigue to conciliate the anti-reform peers, is to revolt t'f people to depend on argument, is to undervalw t'ui force of obstinacy, and prejudice, and infatuation There is nothing for it but to create, or call up, or secure peirs, and thus present a majority of pledged supporters.

Aa we ventured to anticipate in our last number, there was little or no excitement in this city on the arrival of tbe news that the bill was thrown out of the House of Peers. The respectable portion of the public, and of whom we readily admit there was no small number favourable to the bill, was determined that the infamous part of the community should have none of their countenance; aud, as must always be in the case in such circumstances, the rabble was prevented from bursting out into acts of violence, at least to any extent. In fact a degree of tranquillity prevailed during the whole occasion which has given us an additional proof that the good nse of the people is the main stay of the existence, jjO J.L1 But as the exception generally adds strength to the rule itself, we cannot help touching slightly upon one circumstance which characterised the proceedings of the mob the attack upon the office of the Evening Post- This, in fact, was the only thing that could be instanced as disturbing the, iu general, pacific conduct of the mob. The occurrence was perhaps rather of an amusing nature than otherwise.

TO THE EDITOR THE STANDARD. Nottingham, Tuesday Morning. Sir, The barefaced misrepresentations of tbe Attorney General, on tbe subject of the Nottingham riots, induce me to inform you that not a single individual exists here but knows that the magistrates are universally condemned.

The castle might have been saved, and the mill at Beeston also, if they had done their duty. Col. Thackwell is reported to have goue to them, imploring them to allow him to take measures, and at last he said he would withdraw his men, and not suffer them to he so exposed, and they might defend their town themselves. I have heard from most undoubted authority that two messengers were sent to them, saying that the mob was assailing the castle. A gentleman of great respectability went the second time and told them, while they were engaged at dinner, that the people were attacking the lodge-gate.

They insolently replied, Well, then, turn the key." The military uuder the command of Colonel Thackwell behaved in a manner above all praise but, as for the civil authorities, there never were, according to general report, a set of men more deserving of severe censure than they. Among the nusaber were and rr nnt Invfutinated. no Drouertv can be secure in this neighbourhood. In short, it appears that we are now to be under mob law. Yours, Sec, A.

TO THE EIITOR oVt7iESTANIAR Cheltenham" Sir, While our ministers are corresponding with thj dearly-beloved unions while Lord Grey is roasting the bishops in parliament, and his friends in the country burning them iu effigy it may be as well that you should know what did not take place in certain quarters as well as what did. I should not venture to trouble you with a letter on the subject, but that here, as elsewhere, there have been reform meetings got up, and you might imagine we were all boiling hot with all the nonsense that usually evaporates iu such meetings. Nothing of the sort.

I was present when the news of the undismayed conduct ef the peers of Great Britain arrived was by when it was first communicated. What then Did it run like an electric shock from heart to heart Was there weeping and wailing in the streets, shutting up of shops, and blowing of noses Nothing of the sort. Things went on just as usual a little drizilinu rain was falling, and it continued to fall jnst as before, neither a bit slower uor faster because the bill was thrown out servant-mams were pattering uy on their pattens umbrellas were spread and lamps lighted, just as if the graud humbug of Johnny Russell had not been put out. The only visible sign I beheld of this great national calamity was a little boy, who two or three days afterwards paraded the streets with a huge placard affixed to his person before and behind, bearing the 14 Speech in Parliament of Lord Grey." just as wiser boys than himself sometimes bear the word Dunce inscribed in huge letters, for the amusement and edification of their more successful schoolfellows. Now, as so much is made of assemblies of 150,000 of the burning of noblemen's houses, and other things, which would not disgrace the clubs of 1703, it may lie just us well if the sensible and right-minded people, who Hre net adverse te all reform, but only to John Russell's hateful bill, and who know, if they would testify, that the delusion is passed, which, for a moment enslaved our brave countrymen's minds it would be well, I sav, if such would step forward and endeavour to put a drag upon the political machine before it has run down Constitution-hill, and upset King.

Amongst the numerous indivi-duals whose merits, unaided by party views or connexions, have recommended them to the notice of Lord Brougham, is Dr. Lee, who was recently preferred to a prelendal stall in Bristol cathedral, and of whom an autoblogra-lihical sketch, written to a friend in 1013, is given iu a provincial paper. The following brief outline affords a striking example of what industry aud perseverance are capable of effecting under the most discouraging circumstances.

Professor Lee received the rudiments of learning at a charity school at languor, a village about eight miles from Shrewsbury, where lie was horn. Here he remained till he attained Lie twelfth year, when he was apprenticed to a terpen terand joiner, a situation in which, he says, he underwent hardships seldom acquiesced in by boys of his age but his father being dead, and his mother having two children to support by her labour, he judged it prudent to submit iu silence. At 17, meeting, in the course uf his reading, with Latin quotations, which he could not understand, he determined to make himself roaster of that language. I had at this time," he says, but 6s. per week to subsist on, and pay the expenses of hoard and clothing.

My wages were, however, soon aftor raised one shilling a week, and the next year a shilling more, during which time I read the Latin Bible. Florus, Cicero's Orations, Csssar, Justin, Sallust, Virgil, Horace's Odes, and Ovid's Epistles. I uerer had all these books at once, but generally read one, and sold it, the price of which, with a little added to it, enabled me to buy another, aud this, being read, was sold to procure the next." He then learned Greek and Hebrew, aud, notwithstanding a frequent inflammation in his eyee, with every possible discouragement from those about him, he afterwards proceeded to the Chaldsic, the Syrian, and the Samaritan. By this time he had arrived at his 25th year he h.id now a good chest of tools, and, huding the study of languages, in his situation, apparently useless, he resolved to sell his books, marry, and apply himself quietly to his business. I was awakened, however, he continues, "from these views and suggetuous byactrcum- siatice which gave a new and distreuig aspect to my affair.

A fir broke out iu the acute we were repairing, in which my tools, were consumed, and I was cast on the world without a friend, a shilling, or even the means of subsistence." At this k4 tide" iu his affairs he applied to the Rev. Archdeacon Cuibet, who kmdly assisted him his plans; aud Mr. (now Professor) Iie shortly after-warda became master of a small charity foundation in Sht evvsbury, whence he has gradually risen to the respectable station which he now euios.
