TO THE CHARTISTS OP GREAT BRITAIN . U 5 TTE& IL Beethsk ^ , —I resume the above subject by shewing you how the Sabbath may be best employed . We find no instruction concerning the observance of the S&bhath till the
Mosaic Law was instituted , in which we find , after the commaadment was given , its observance was enforced , vith the greatest severity . In the 31 stehapter of Exodus , -where Mosea U promulgating part of the ceremonial law , which he had « c * i * edta » mQod . the commandment to ot serve the S&bbath was again repeated ; and in the 14 th verse it U . ^ d . " Erery one tbatdefileth it shall surely be put todUih- ^ dia the I 5 to chapter of Numbers , from the 32 ud to the 36 th vem , youwill see that a man , who was found gathering sticks on that day , was stoned to death by the direct command of the Lord . '
> ow , I would here notice one thing , which is very requisite for the proper understanding of the dealing of ( rodwitii the Israelites . This nation was the Church or uod , and every sin inconsistent with a believer in the mercy of Qod , and a professor of bis holy name , was punished with death . Adultery , witchcraft , and other sins , besides Sabbath-breaking , were equally punished with death . If these rinsire committed i the present day by a member of any Christian Church he ia expelled , and counted dead , having DO lonro any spiritual life in him . It was in this character that the Jews , with God ' s authority , punished , nat only mnted deadly siu . By viewing the government of God amongst that . people in this light , it will considerably softea that -which mast otherwise appear harsh , bloody ana cruel . *
In the 35 th chapter of Exodus , and the 3 rd verse toe people are commanded to light no fires throughout their habitations on the Sabbath-day . I believe there ! L « v ^ £ !? , mmaod ^ ™ y importance , concerning the Ss . bbath , tdl we come to Nehemiah , where , in the 13 th chapter , we find him using his power as Governor to suppress the breach of the Sabbath , which was then taking place . " Some in Judah were treading wine-presses , bringing in sheaves , and lading asses as also grapes , vines , and figs , and all sorts of burden * which they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath-day &nd sold theae victuals to the people . And Nehemi 4 contended with the nobles of Judah , and testified against them because they did that evil on the Sabbathday , to profane it ; " and at length he took measures winch suppressed the traffic Turn to the 56 th chapter of Isaiah , and you will find that the prophet pronounces a blessing from the Lord upon the man " That does
judgment and justice , and that keepeth the Sibbath from pollnUng it , and keepeth his hand from doing any eviL" Go to the 58 th chapter of the same prophet , and you will see another blessing pronounced on those " who turn away their feet from the Sabbath , from doing their pleasure on God ' s holy day , and call the Sabbarh a deljght , the holy of the Lord , honourable , and shalt honeur him , not doing their own ways , nor finding their own pleasure , nor speaking their own words . " In the 17 th chapter of Jeremiah from the 19 th . to the 27 th . venes , we see the pr-phet ? armng the people , with the impartial honesty of a true prophet , from the Prince downwards , to cease " from carrying forth a burden out of their houses on the Sabbath-day , " and engaging " in any work , " and threatening them with the vengeance of Jehuvah , if they refused v » to hallow" the Sibbatb . P- ^ fciei also in the 20 th chapter , charged the Israelites with neglecting to hallow" the Sabbath , as one of their most
grievous sins . I find nothing more of any account in the remainder of the Old Testament , but from the commands I have bronght to your notice , you must perceive that the Sabbath-d » y was to be freed , as much as possible , from servile labour—from worldly business - and that it . vas to be devoted to some high and hoJy purpose , we may perceive from the words used to characterise it But , through the whole of the Old Testament , we find not one single passage to particularise how that day w&s to be spent . On particular occasions in the ceremonial law , we find certain sacrifices offered up ; but this was only on Sabbaths specified as commemorating some important event Thus how the Sabbaths of God ' s chosen people were spent before the coming of the Messiah , we are left in Ignorance of , as far as I have been able to
discover , except on one Sabbathi to which I shall hereafter call the most attentive consideration of all who seek national reformation . We now come to the New Testament , where we shall mark the sentiments that Tell from him who came to be our exemplar—the way , the truth , and the life , through whom all must come to the Father—the meek and lowly Jesus . In St . Matthew ' s Gospel we first find the Sabbath noticed when Jesus went through the corn fields on the Sabbath-day ; who had , doubtless , taken his disciples there to show them the wonders of nature , and to direct them from nature up to nature ' s God- He , who always drew his instructions from the objects by which he was surrounded , told them to observe the lilies of the field , how they grewand to
, observe the bounty of Pro-ridsnce in providing the ravens with food when they cried , and then teaching them " That if God so clothed the grass of the field , which to-day is , and to-morrow is cast into the fire , how much more would he clothe them . " It was when Jesus was , no doubt , thus employed , that his disdples felt the cravings of hunger , and began to pluck the ears of corn and to eat , which they wore allowed to do by the Mosaic Law . Bat the Pharisees , considering it to be a breach of the fourth commandment , asked Jesus why his disciples did that which was unlawful to be done ? Jesus asked , then , if they had not read what David did wien he was an
hungered . Thus showing that it was lawful for a man , when deprived of the necessaries of life , to procure them as David did , even though the act , which the hun £° r atone justified , was unla-vrftil ; and liis disciples , not . having th « necessaries of life , were justified in getting or procuring them on the SabVath-day ; which , bad they been in different circumstances , it would have been-unlawful for them to have done Jesus thus taught m that we should use our reason ( God ' s nobleBt gift of man ) in the interpretation of the Divine law : and hss here giTen a lesson which it would be Well for our Andrew Agnews and Pemberton Plurabtres to profit by , and to learn from this to take the different
circumstances of the rich and poor into consideration , when they bring forward their Bills for the better observance of the Sabhath : in which they permit the rich to drive to the devil in their carriages , whilst the poor are t- be deprived of the' stage coach and the rail road and to be eompeUed to - * aik to besvea ; m which they permit the rich to have their servwts cooking and stewing the heaps and stores from their larders , whilst the poor are to be deprived of the necessaries of life The baker would have to close his doors , and suffer hunger to break even through stone walls ; ke must also be prevented from baking the only hot joint many of the working men can get in the "WfcJt : the Deerseller must
shut up ; and tie rest of the Bill they would make in like stjle . These Agnewites have frequently been denounced as advocates for keeping the Jewish Sab oath . I think those who designate tkem thus do great injustice to the Jewish law . Did God command the Jews to keep the Sabbath , when he knew that they must starve from the 1 'riday to the Sunday ? Certainly not ; every Friday God rained down sufficient manna for two days * eonsmnption , sotfcat ftll might rejoice in the goodness of God on that day . Yet , in the face of
this , ( to say nothing of the exhortation of our Saviour above quoted ) these hypocrites bring forward their infidel , apprehensive scheme to crush the poor ; who are often compelled to resort to Sunday trading from their own . proceedings ; from paying their workmen , m they do in almost every large town , so late on the Saturday evening . Had these fanatics proposed to deprive the ricli man of his luxuries , as well as the po « r man of his necessaries , on that day , every honest man would have said that they were consistent , though they might even then think them rather " far gone . "
We next find the Son of God employing his Sabbath in another , thwigh very common way—healing the sick and diseased . Ia the 10 th verse of the 12 th chapter of St . Maatiew , we find there was a man which had & irithered band , and eome spies , Who were standing about Jesu , ( bow like the present day , when every one who attempts to enlighten the minds of the people * re , like their 2 > iviae ilaster , surrounded by these who are " seeking to caich something out of his mouth that they may betray him , ") asked Jesoa , whether it was lawful to Heal on the Sabbath day ? And Jesus , knowing tiey wane ot those who maintained that no work shmiO . be done on Uie Sabbath day , addressed them—eelged . a oommon occurrence with which they were well acquainied , and asked them , " If any one of them had aa « x or an ass , and it fell into a pit on the Saboath d » y , wbetfcex they would not lay hold of it and lift it out ? " Tb&j could no * but acknowledge thty would , thoagn in theory they maintained it was unlawful to do any kind < rf work . Our Divine Vaster then
added , " S « w maob . is a man better tban on or . Wherefore it is" ( by your own ooafeasieD ) " lawful to do good on tbe Sabbath day . " And he Baith to tke man , stretch £ ortb thy hand , and it was restored whole , like the other . Turn to tke 12 th chapter of St Luke And you will nod another instance of this kind fraught with instruction . Jeou wm then in the Synagoguethe Jewish place ot wonhip , and behold there was a woman which had an infirmity eighteen years , jtod was bowed together , and could not even lift ap fcerself . A ad Jesus , laying his hand on the woman , s&kl unto her , thou art loosed from thine infirmity , and immediately she was nude straight , and gloried God . And
the rater of the Synagogue answered with indignation , because that Jesus ha 4 healed on the Sabbath day , and said unto the people , there are » ix days in which men ought to work ; in them , therefore , come and be heaied , and not on the Sabbath . And the . Lord answered , thou hypocrite , datb not each one of you loose his oxor Ms au from the stall , and lead him away to watering ? And ought not this woman , whom Satan hath bound ferthese eighteen years , to be loosened from this bond on the Sabbath ? Commentary on this would be ssiperfiuons ; it at ence proved the inconsistency and hypocrisy by which th <* e S » bbatharians were wtypft ^ wfc

In the beginniEg of the : 14 th chapter' of St . lu&ejs anotner case ot healing o ' a the Sabbath day , which , however , has nothing particular in it , if we except its being performed at the house of one of the chief Pharisees , where Jeeua had gone to eat bread on the Sabbath , by which we are taught that it is not improper , on that day , ( as the Agnewites would tell us ) to enjoy the bounties of Providence or to accept the hospitalities of Others . Another case is presented in the 9 th chapter of St John , where Jesus healed a blind man on the Sabbath , and again stirred up the prejudices of the fanatical Pharisees , who said , this man is not of God , because he keepeth not the Sabbath . OLhers said , how can a man that is a sinner do such miracles ? In the 6 th chapter of St Luke , and the 9 th verse , you will find JesuB surrounded , as usual , by spies , whom he thus addressed , — inUiebeginnii ^ the - 4 th chapter / of St lukeis another case ot heailri ? on ifi * ' s ^ wi , , i , v * « h ;« h
" Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good or to do evil , to save life or to destroy it ? " To ttus question no answer appears to have been returned by the hypocrite * . But » ur Lord answered it in a most intelligible manner , by actions , not by words : — " Stretch forth thy hand , " was Jesus ' 8 command , and it was restored whole as the other . By this our Lord declared that everything for the benefit of the human race , apart from unnecessary manual labour , might be performed on the Sabbath . There may be other passages explaining how our Saviour employed his Sabbaths ; but , if there are , they so much re * embl « those I have quoted , that I thought it would be superfluous to extract them . After the passage last quoted , from St John , the Sabbath is only once mentioned through the rest of the New Testament
I trust the digression will be excused if I ask , how the professed ministers of God ' s Word have treated this question ? To deny the lawfulness « f working , for moral improvement on this day , they could not They have admitted that it is lawful to visit the Bick , to alleviate their sorrows—that it is lawful to instruct the children in Sabbath schools , by which many hours of labour are incurred on that day . So far they admit the lawfulness of working on that day ; and , so far , good . But they tell you that , saving thess things , the Sabbath is to be entirely employed in worshipping God , and in what they call religious exercise—that ia , merely an attendance on ordinances ; and to hear some Of these preachers talk , any person would think , if he did not know to the contrary , that there was a command laid
down in the Word of God , stating how many times a person was to attend the houses professedly devoted to his worship . They speak of your neglect of their houses , and of the wrath of God , if you iare absent from your seats during that day ; but where do they find any such command ? Think not that I wish to undervalue the worship of Jehovah on that day ; I fully believe it is proper that every one should attend some place , if it really is a House of God , a place where his holy commands are declared by one who is desirous to turn aside neither to the right hand , or to the left , from what God hath commanded . If there is no such place within reach , why then worship him under the open canopy of heaven . If the -weather will not permit this , and there is no house where God ' s
name is hallowed , " why then bow before an Omnipresent God on your own hearthstones , and pour out your whole souls before him , and your prayers will be as acceptable as if they arose from the most sumptuous edifice ever erected by the art of man . I have aaid it is my opinion that it is right publicly to acknowledge and adore God on that day ; but it is not mine merely . Turn to the 4 th chapter of St . Luke , and yea will read in the 16 th verse , that Jesm came to Nasareth , where he was brought up ; and as hU custom was he went into the Synagogue on tho Sabbath day , and stood up for te read . Thus you perceive our Divine Master , during his sojourn of thirty-three years on this earth , made a practice of going np to the Synagogue , to instruct and to hear instruction . But be not deceived ; had Christ come to the earth at this day , and made
England the seat ef his labours , I firmly believe he would not have accustomed himself to attend the houses of worship in the land , where he would hav ^ been compelled to hear the blasphemous , unscriptural , and sometimes unnatural doctrines , without being allowed the least liberty to contradict them , unless he had chosen to ran the risk of stepping on the cursed treadmill . 'Qut , no doubt , that was truly a " dark" age , which permitted one of the poorest of the poor , one who "had not where to lay his head , " " to stand up for to read , " and declare his atntiments to the congregation who had assembled !! How thankful ought we to be that we live in such a " liberal" age ! . ' In liberty ' s holy cause , Your faithful friend , A Bible Chartist .

An immense number of persons assembled on the Town Pier and adjacent places at Gravesend , on Ibursday afternoon , to witness a singular feat of a man who calls himself the " American diver , " who jumped off the topgallantmast head of a large « hip into the river . He remained under water between four and five minutes , and when he rose to the surface was hailed with loud cheering by the anxious spectators . He then swam to a boat which took him ashore , and a collection was made for him by the company assembled .
vigilance op the Pouce . — On the Wednesday evenbg of the festival week , Major Shaw , chief superintendent of the Birmingham police force , was on duty at the theatre royal .

There are only two at present at work , namely , the Wise ' s , of Cork ; and the Ha-ckett ' s , of Middleton ; which circumstance , we understand , is owing to the superiority of the article manufactured by those establishments , and which is peculiarly suited to the taste of the better classes of society . —Limerick Reporter .

entering his stable , in Southampton , on Tuesday night , was pelted by two bricklayer ' s labourers , at work near the premises , with some pieces of rubbish .

He was a porter , and had been in the habit of running on errands for gentlemen in the city , and he had a wife and'friar children to support ; latterly , however , he bad been unfortunate , and could get no work . On Wednesday night he went home , and some conversation took plaoe between the deceased and his wife relative to the distressing situation in which they were placed , when the deceased suddenly jumped up from his aeat . and exclaimed , I can ' t stand it no longer ! I can ' t see my children starve , " and in a moment precipitated himself from the window .
Rather Sharp . —In a case of bail before the Conrt of Bankruptcy , on Tuesday , one of the proposed sureties was examined as to the amount of property he possessed unencumbered , when the following colloquy took place : — " Of what does your property consist ! " "Of stock in trade and household property . " " Where ia it ! " " In Cheapside . " What is the valuo of your Btockin trade ? " " £ 2 , 000 and upwards . " " And what may ba the amount of yoHr debta ? " "Not £ 5 , thank God ! By the bye , the rent cornea due to-day , so I owe that , but it is sure to be paid . " ( Laughter . ) The Solicitor—JNow , answer me this question—is there not a bill ia your window which says , 'This shop to be let !' Ihe proposed surety , with firmness— " No , certainly not . The Solicitor— " Have you not a bill in your
window which states that you are selling off , and that the ahop will close on Saturday 1 " The proposed surety , with considerable glee— "I have : I am always selling off , and shops generally close on Saturday night , don ' t they , Mr . Sharpshooter !" ( Roars of laughter . ) The Solicitor appeared rather chargined at this retort , but proceeded . He was understood to ask the witness something about selling at reduced prices ? "Yes ( said the proposed surety ) , and if I had you , I would sell ydu at'halfprice , with all your abilities . " ( Laughter . ) In answer to a further question ^ he said , that ' when the bill which was at preBent up in his window got dirty , he should have another in its stead . The Solicitor confessed himself overdone , and said he did not wish further to trouble the gentleman .
Deficiency in the Quarter ' s Revenue . —The return of the quarter ' s revenue is a melancholy illustration of Swift ' s remark , that" in the arithmetic of the Customs two and two do not always make four ; they sometimes make only one . " Tho great financial measure of the last Session , which was to cover the additional charge for Canada , and the deficit of the Post-office , wus a further duty of five per cent , upon all articles before paying duty in the departments of the Customs and Excise . The result is now before the country , and it is material to show , in figures , what it should have bean , had that measure been based in a sound calculation of consequences , and what it is . In the quarter ending October , 1839 , the total clear receipt was in round numbers : — CustomB ... , £ 5 , 780 , 000 Excise 4 , 120 , 000
Making a total of 9 , 900 , 000 Five per cent on this would be 495 , 000 Requiring , in order to equal the Revenue of October , 1839 a total of ... £ 10 , 395 , 000 Taking now the actual produce of the revenue for these two departments in the quarter ending October , 1840 , the account stands thus : — CuBtome ie 5 , 660 , 00 i Excise 3 , 916 , 060
Total # 9 , 576 , 000 and the deficiency therefore , keeping up the comparison between the two October quarters , and giving the benefit of the additional five per cent , to the last , is about £ 820 , 000 on . the quarter ; and there occurs an actual deficiency , leaving that additional five per cent , entirely out of the question , of £ 324 , 000 in the two departments of the Custom and Excise . The other items in the present account are comparatively of little importance . What the Chancellor of the Exchequer is to obtain from the new survey , and addition to the assessed taxes , will not appear until the returns for the January quarter aro made . In the Stamps there has been a trifling improvement .
quite unimportant either way . The Post-office doeB uot luuk well , but some progress at least seems to be making , and we are not disposed to deal rigidly with a measure which was only faulty in being commenced too early , and which is conferring and will confer an immense benefit on all classes of the community . At the present rate of production , the Post-office will stillyield a revenue to the country oi about tia . lt' a million annually . With this deficiency , however , added to the others already described , and taking the Ministerial estimates of the year as the basis of the account , the quarterl y return , compared with the corresponding period of 1839 , may fairly be said to present a falling off of not less than one million ouo hundred thousand pounds . —Times .

FOREIGN POOR LAWS . NO . III . 10 . Canton op Bbrne . —The inhabitants amount to 321 , 468 persons , and are divided into three classes , heimathloses , aubains , and bourgeois . The support of the two first classes falls on the government ; but every bourgeois is entitled to a maintenance from the commune of which he is a member . The sum for this last purpose is supplied from the pubho property of the commune ; and so far as that is insufficient , from the landed property , to whomsoever belonging , situated in the commune , and from the personal property ( goods ) of the bourgeois , whether resident or not . 11 . Hanskatic Towns .
1 . Hamburgh begins the number of those places , which are said not to acknowledge a legal right U the applicant . Besides many endowed schools , hospitals , and almahousee , the city possesses a general institution for the poor , supported by the interest of its own capital , and by some voluntary contributions , and considerable advances from the treasury of the Btate . In 1832 , about £ 25 , 000 sterling was distributed in money , by way of weekly relief among the poor , amounting to 2 , 900 individuals , or heads of families ; the smallest weekly relief being 7 d .
Bter . ing ; the largest , for an individual , 7 s . sterling ; and for a family 10 s . 6 d . Considerable sums were also expended in the distribution of soap , clothing , beds , and fuel , and in the education and maintenance of poor children , and in medical relief to the sick . The regular out-door relief ( and there is no workhouse ) amount 9 on a population of 130 , 000 to very nearly 4 s . a head . 2 . Bremen . —The poor institutions of this place resemble those of Hamburgh , except in the general enforcement of education , and the use of a workhouse .
Those who have trades come under the care of their respective guilds , whose duty and credit it is to prevent any of their fraternity from coming upon the parish . 3 . Lubeck . —Here is a workhouse , called the cloister , into which none are admitted except persons totally incapacitated from contributing to their own support . A collection is made in all the churches every Sunday . Flax is given out to old women to spin , and the linen yarn thus spun is
disposed of by lottery among the wealthier classes . Food is frequently sold at a very cheap rate to the indigent , fuel is also given during the winter , and the children of the poor are educated gratuitously . Tlie allowance in the poorhouse is : — Daily—1 £ lb of rye bread . 2 £ lbof vegetables , or porridge , or rice . ] bottle of weak beer . Monthly—1 £ lbof meat , and Jib of butter or lard , to cook the food with .

institutions . Every denomination of Christians , aa well as the Jews , relieve their own members . ; and for this ^ purpose generally have orphan aud poorhouses , and schools connected with them , which aie supported by property belonging to them , aud voluntary contributions . The general poor ( being inhabitants ) of whatever sect , with the exception of Jews , are relieved at their own houses from property , long since appropriated to that use , adminisinstitutions . Every denomination of Christians , aa
tered by Commissioners appointed by the Magistrates and acting without emolument ( as is the case with most similar offices in that country ) , and in aid of which charitable collections are permitted , while any eventual deficiency is supplied from the funds of the city . One deoree fixing the domicile of paupers for the purpose of obtaining relief , and a subsequent one , by which gratuitous legal advice is allowed them , imply that they have a claim to support ) which can be enforced at law .
Besides the above mentioned provisions , there are also various places , unions , and societies , which grant relief in someway or another ; namely , some for the -support of very indigent poor ; others for the poor lying-in women ; and the Commissioners , who during the winter , distribute provisions aud fuel . It appears that rather more than £ 500 , 000 sterling has on an average of tho last twelve years been annually expended on tho relief of the poor , being an expense per head , on an average population of 2 , 292 , 350 , of about 4 s . 4 $ d . Besides this sum , about £ 16 , 666 sterling are annually employed on th © gratuitous instruction of poor children ; the number thus instructed in 1831 was 73 , 609 .
The modt remarkable portion of the Dutch poor institutions are the poor colonies . The dearths of 1816 and 1817 , and the consequent distress , occasioned the establishment of a philanthropic society , to whose funds each subscriber wa&to pay one halfpenny a week . The subscribers soon amounted to 20 , 000 . One of its projects was the foundation of poor colonies among' the heaths , with which this country abounds . In-the first year , the society established the free colony on some heaths . It consisted of fifty-two-small farms , part of which had been previously cultivated b ^ r the society , of a store , of several workshops , a school , &c . In order to give employment to the colonists during the dead season of the year , the society engaged to purchase from them 26 , 000 ells of linen .
In 1819 , the orphan colony was established . The children were placed in large buildiugs , with elderly persons to act as their parents . In the same year , the members of the ' sooiety had increased to 22 , 500 , and their subscriptions to 82 , 500 florins , or £ 6 , 875 , and two more free colonies were established ; 150 families were placed in them . In 1820 , the sooiety were enabled to settle 150 more families . In 1821 , It possessed seven free colonies , consisting of £ 00 small farms .
In 1822 , it formed the first colony for the repression of mendicity , and engaged with the Government to receive and settle on its colonies 4 , 000 orphans , 2 , 500 indigent persons , and 1 , 500 mendicants , the Government engaging to pay for each orphan £ 3 ISs . a year for sixteen years . A more minute description of these colonies may not be without interest . The small farms , containing each about nine aoros , extend along the sides of roads , bordered with trees , and of canals . Each house is composed of one great room . A cow-house , a barn , and every building necessary for an agricultural famil y , is annexed to the farm . Hear the house is the garden ; beyond it the land to be cultivated .
Upon his admission into the colony , each colonist binds himself to obey its rules . When a family of eight persons ( the number usually adopted by the Sooiety ) has been settled in a farm , the Sooiety opens an account with them , in which they are debited in the sum of £ 141 13 s . 4 d . which is considered as having been advanced to their use for the purchase of land , labour , two cows , and same sheep , the house , furniture , and clothing , &c . The Society distributes medals of copper , of
silver , and of gold , as rewards of merit . A certain extent of ground is cultivated in common for the public good of the colony , each head of a family being required to work on it . three days in the year , at wages paid in a colonial paper money . No colonist is allowed to marry , unless he be a widower , or th » son of a widower , and in possession of a farm . To every twenty-five farms there is a superintendent , and in selecting the occupiers of each of these farms , care is taken that pereons of different trades shall be included . With the account of this novel and peculiar remedy for pauperism , we conclude our present article .

" Wb learn from the Wolverhampton Chronicle , that the Conservative Operative Association of Walsall got up a dinner on the 7 th , which was attended by Lord Ingbstbk , M . P ., son of Earl Taibot , of Orange notoriety as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland , by Viscount Newport , and Lord Bbadford , one Of the " heieditaries . ''
We should not notice the slaves or their rubbish but for the value of the four words standing at the head of our brief remark , and which were the means recommended to two of the speakers , Peter Bothsb , Esq . and Lord Bradford , when they waited upon Lord Melbourne , as a deputation , to ascertain his Lordship ' s opinion as to the best means of suppressing Chartism . Peter Bother , Esq . lets the cat out of the bag .
After the deputation had declared their belief that the mere local authority of the place was insufficient ' u Oh ! ruin them with expenses—ruin them with expenses , " says the English Premier—the paid guardianof the poor man ' s rights . Hear that , ye Fox and Goose , and Ulcer Clubs , ye keep-the-Tories-out patriots—hear that ; and let us know what in the annals of cold-blooded tyranny can equal it ; and , observe , we have it upon iho authority of a Peer of the realm , and a county magistrate .
" Ruin theh with expenses 1 Ruin them with expenses !! " Let every town in tho jempire instantly get a flag , though ever so small , and over a hideous picture of a black ram lamb with one horn , let there be the following words , very large : — " Melbourne , the Black Ram Lamb , " and M Ruin them with expenses I" underneath . Let this . be done , though it be upon calico , WHITE GROUND , BLACK RAH LAMB , AND BLOOD red letters . There are many ways of killing a dog besides ohoaking him with batter . But we cannot allow the Conservative
Operatives to escape under the black flag . No , no ; no quarter . We have lost too much by allowing one set of ruffians to build hopes upon the atrocities of the other set . Verily , these operatives must be a very Godly gang ; for whether by a ruse of some waggish reporter , or whether true , or whether by inadvertence , we know not , but the Wolverhampton Conservative paper makes the head dish a beautifully bound Bible , upon velvet , garnished with a crown , while an immense dish of prayer books furnished the foot of the table , and at
the sides there were Church and State , the Queen and Constitution , Bradford , Talbor , Newport , Ingestrb , Lyndhurst , and Stanley . We suppose some new fashioned French dishes ; but we hope Mother Church was well roasted , else must the old dame have been a tough , morsel . There was nothing in any one of the speeches worth a single comment , with the exception of the new light thrown upon the intended Conservative policy by Lord Bradford , a member of the Upper House , and which , from its value , we subjoin at full length : —
" The Eail of Bradford , on rising , was received with loud and continued cheering . His Lordship commenced by saying— 'Mr . President , Viee-Presldent , and Gentlemen , ' which h « twice repeated amidst loud cheering , and which failing to occasion silence , * Fellow-tO wng > men , ' exclaimed Ms Loidflblp , at tlie top of hi * voice

PRINCE ALBERT AND THE NEW COALITION MINISTRY . We would gladly give the letter of Prince Albert announced in our last ; but the fact is , that neither the printer ' s devils , nor the devil himself , could decipher the contents . It is lucky for deputy kings that there iB no education qualification required , or , we fear , the Prince would be disfranchised . Wo can catch a sentence here and there in the Prince ' s letter , but all physical . We read of his unremitting : attention to her Majesty ' s Royal Naval Arsenal , - the investigation of her Majesty ' s Dock-yards ; the
number and strength of her Majesty ' s grappling-irons , hand-grenades , sky-rockets , rocket-brigades , &o . ; the discipline of her rifles ; the loyalty and devotion of her troops ; and her solicitude about her beloved people , and so forth ; but for want of connection we must remain in ignorance of the Prince ' s communication .

"Sir , —In accordance with your "very prudent suggestion , I beg you will affix the name of Lucifer Sparks ,, instead of Blazes Swing Flareup , to my former communication . The fact is , my real name is Paget ; but a feeling of delicacy , on the part of my wife , in eonaequence of the numerous "faux paw" of that noble family , induced me to adopt the name of a maternal uncle . "I am , Sir , ** Your obedient servant , "LUC 1 FEB SFABK 8 . " The following ia the letter to which our last welfc '» notice referred r—
" Sir , —Allow me to solicit your council and qtsistance in a moat unfortunate affair . " Sir , I am an old Lieutenant in the Navy , of fortysix years' standing . I hare lost my left arm in the service of my country ; arid while I have served my sovereign faithfully , I have been rewarded by having children , smelling of bread and butter and crying for their mammas , placed over my head as fast as the rules of promotion would admit I have now a wife and eleven children , with little more ttun £ 2 a week to support them after forty-six yean' service . Having read the high encomiums passed by the press upon
Admiral , the Earl of Dundonaldi , proposition for setting fire to the Egyptian fleet , and having served under his Lordship , I bethought me that I would try theexperiment upon an empty vesael , without tide of destroying life . With ' this intent . I made my arrange ment for firing the Talavera only , and , behold i when my plan bad succeeded to the fullest ; having evaded all the sentinels , and used as much caution as would be > required upon foreign service , I waited at a distano and mingled with the erowd , in tie hope that the
