The Czar is most anxious to have » iina of Congress or meeting of Sovereigns , but Austria -will not listen to anything of the kind .

He has just sent his aide-delamp , Prince Xabanois de Rosiof , to Statgard , to bezthe King of Yfirtemberg and his daughters , that arl nieces of Nicholas , to meet him at Berlin .

all into South Germany . \ Bbtjssels , March 22 . —Belgium Trill be worthily represented at the coronation of Queen / Victoria . Ijkethe Dukes of Devonshire and Northumberland , the Prince de ligne -undertakes tire honourable mission at his own expense . —Coumer Beige . BbttsseIS , Mabch 2 S .-Mr . Wfflocks , the Cabinet messenger , is gone ( as has been stated ) to London with important dispatches . It is asserted that they relate to the clauses of the twenty-four articles in which onr Government requires changes to be made . These clauses are " those relative tothe debt , to the territory deeded , and to the free navigato the
tion of the Scheldt . With respect , territory ceded by the twenty-four article 3 , it is objected that the King of Holland laving taken seven years to decide on accepting the terms to which he now offers to acegde , it would not be equitable to place in his hands the fate of the population wMch has taken more er less part "in the revolution and its" consequences , by the acceptance of public offices , by the exercise of political rights in different elections , and by submission to the Belgian laws relative to taxes and the militia . The town of Tiriloo is the subject of a distinct claim for the arrears of the interest of the debt charged upon Belgium ; it is demanded that they shall be balanced by the expense of the 3 tate of war in which Holland has eompelHll TO to remain
since the powers who ; , signed the treaty of London liave guaranteed the neutrality of Belgium . The exact tenour of the proposed modifications is not known , bnt they are in substance such as we have stated ; and we are permitted to add that they have been drawn up according to the opinions of the Cabinets of Paris and London , brought by the last couriers from those capitals . They bavp been prepared by the Ministers , and communicated to influential persons . Supported by the two Powers which are really our allies , the Ministry will perhaps have sufficient energy to persist in demands which obtain the assent of the country ; but if it is unhappHy abandoned to itself , it is certain that it will give way . —Commerce Belg .
Brussels , March 30 . —The Handelsblad contains the following article : —" - New negociations are not thought of . The King has merely declared that be is ready to accede to the treaty of the twenty-four articles . His Majesty has resolved on this step after all other attempts to settle the differences with Belgium , or to open fresh negociations had failed , and been rejected by several of the great Powers , especially , as it is said , by Austria and Prussia . These two Powers are reported to have
poarively declared that they abided by the treaty of the twenty-four articles , and to have advised the Eng to accede to it . They are stated to have expressed their fears that if new negociations were opened , " new and greater difficulties might arise . The wise resolution taken by the King soon after the receipt of these resolutions is now known . His Majesty , out of love for his faithful people , has resolved to listen to the wish expressed as well in this country as abroad . The King has resolved to show that be is Teaiv to make this sacrifice for the
consolidation of the general peace . This resolution has been notified to the Conference . A s all the members of that assembly were not in London , Lord Palmerston accepted the declaration , ad memorandum , to communicate it immediately to the members of the Conference . So the matter stands at present , and every body is impatient to learn what will be the result" "

The Mayor said under these circumstances he should discharge him , as he thought the loss of his ship was a punishment sufficient , and he hoped that it would be a warning to him to keep bimself sober in future . —Discharged .
Chaboe of Stealing . ——Andrew Banter , a young man , was charged by Mr . Joseph Blundle with having committed a felony under the following extraordinary circumstances : —Mr . Blundle stated that on Monday last the bellman , W . Levitt , came to their office , and inquired if they had lost a parcel of bronze , about three months since , as a lad had brought some to him to cry , saying that he had found it in Wilcomlee , when the snow was on the ground . Mr . "Warten , their principal clerk , made inquiries , and found that about ten days previous they had sent a parcel which corresponded in appearance and quality with that produced " . liy the beilmaByto Mr . Wall , of Barnsley . Subsequently the prisoner went with the bellman , and told the
same story as at first toMr . H . Blundle ; when , however , the wood between" which thebronze was packed was indentified as that which was sent from Mr . B . 's warehouse , he changed his tale , and said that he got it from a lad called James Smithson , who had been working on board ihe sloop . Mr . "Warten had written to Barnsley , and had received an answer , stating that the bronze and two other articles mentioned in the invoice had not arrived . It also appeared that prisoner had offered to sell the bronze to Mr . Brooks , carver and gilder , and was told by a son ef Mr . B . that he mnst get it cried , as no one would buy it without . This advice being acted upon , ultimately led to the detection of the robbery . The value of the bronze was £ 2 . Prisoner said he
found lie packet , as he had stated . He was fully committed for trial . Loss of theElviba Ixdiaman . — "We regret to state that this fine vessel , for Calcutta , which left this port on Friday last , in tow of a steamboat , having on board a cargo estimated , we believe at £ 80 , 000 , struck on the outward bar in the new channel . The captain and pilot then determined to return to Liverpool , but not having water to come back the way they went out , they bore up for the Horse Channel , and thepasseneers then returned to Liverpool on board the steamer which had towed out the Elvira . Notwithstanding every
exertion to bring the vessel into port . again , the water gained rapidly upon them , and at half-past five she was telegraphed in great distress near Spencer's Gut Buoy . About this time she was seen by the Messrs . Atherton , of Hew Brighton , with a signal of distress flying , and sinking ; and they proceeded , we understand , in their steam-boat with as little delay as possible , to endeavonr to find tile vessel and save the crew . After some difficulty , owing to the darkness of the night , they fell in with the wreck on the
West "Wharf , the poop and masts only beiDg above water . As it would have been dangerous , in consequence of the heavy swell , to have laid the steamboat alongside of the wreci , the Post-office mail boxes , ship ' s letter bags , seamen ' s hammocks , some luggage and stores were transhipped in boats without damage . Shortly afterwards , however , the w ater rose breast high in the poop and cabin , and all hands then left the vessel and took refuge on board the steamer , and were safely landed next morning at Liverpool . —Liverpool Standard .
Medical , Relief to the Poob . —At the meeting of the newly -erected P-oard of Guardians of the Driffield Union , Assistant Commissioner Revans in the chair , Mr . Harrison , the medical officer of the Union , stated bis inability to continue the arduous duties of his office at the present inadequate salary . He stated to the Board that he had to attend to the sick poor of 46 parishes , extending over 16 miles from his house . On the day of the meeting of the guardians he had to remain at the board during the sitting , and to supply all the
medicines , for which be received £ 120 a-year ; in the medicines alone he was a loser by the contract , without taking into account the keep and salary of an assistant , and the expenses of an extra horse . After a long discussion , the guardians informed Mr . Harrison that they highly approved of his services , and wished their continuance , but they could not increase his salary ; on hearing this determination he immediately resigned , and the Board ordered that tenders to supply the poor with medicine should be advertised for . —Hull Paper .
Accounts . —The habit of keeping private aecountsshows the importance of small sums . The practice of comparing our means with the expenditure is one of the surest sources of prudence , caution , and circumspection in other affairs of life . Being a good accountant is not only useful in itself , but gives the mind a habit of accuracy in other matters . Nor does this apply only to the rich , but those who have no idea of the advantage of keeping an extra account of a very small income . A half-penny or a penny is a mere trifle , but it will surprise many to see bow soon they will amount to shillings and pounds . We are apt to think very little of small expenses , but these are more ruinous in the end than such expenses as are large enough to waken our attention . —Cot . TTisitor .
Explosion of a Powder Mill . —Last week one of those frightful occurrences , against wbieh no human foresight can guard , and which seem as if expressly intended to mock the devices of humnn prudence , took place at Stobbs Powder Mills , belonging to Mr . Caldwell , a few miles from Edinburgh . About half-past six o ' clock on the morning of Wednesday , half an hour after the workmen had assembled at the mills , they were alarmed by a loud explosion on the -premises , the fearful import
of which they too well knew . It was found to have proceeded from one of the corning houses , where the powder undergoes the process of being separated into particles or " corns" as they are termed in Scotland , which is nearly the finishing proeesss in the manufacture . In this house there were about twelve barrels of gunpowder , each containing lOOlbs ., and two men were engaged in the manufacture . The ' body of one was found at Borne distance from the house , the other within the house .
Dreadful Accident . —Last night an inquest was held before Mr . Payne , the city coroner , at the Anchor and Hope , in Lower Thames-street , on the remains of a young man , named Richard Stamford , who was killed by being drawn into the machinery of the Yorkshireman steam-packet , on her passage from Hull to London . It appeared in evi dence that the deceased was a passenger , and was coming up to London previous to seeking employment on the Great Western Railway . During the voyage-on Friday afternoon he was upon deck with other passengers , and made several attempts to get into the engine room , but was repulsed by the
engineer and stokers , who requested him to keep on deck . Afterwards he placed his legs over the opening leading into the engine room , and he was several times in great danger of being injured by the machinery He was repeatedly caut ioned by two other passengers , named Powell and Reams , not to persist in his conduct , but in spite of their warnings he actually ¦¦ attempted to descend . into the engine room for the ptnrpose of -warming bimself among the machinery while tbe wbeeb were going ronnd at the rate of 25 revolutions per minute . He got upon the iron bar or stay , which is placed between the two engines "; and in stooping to descend lower / the tail of his
coat was caught in the cog-wheel , and in an instant he was drawn among the machinery and his body was rednced to atoms . The engineer was called to , who stopped the engines immediately , and the mangled remains of the rash and unfortunate man were collected from various parts of the engine-room and placed in a case . On the arrival of the steamer at the Hull Steam-packet "Wharf , the mutilated fragments of the deceased ' s body were removed to the Church of Allhallows Barking , in Tower-street The accident occurred off the Hazeborough Light , about two o ' clock p . m . on Friday . There was no one in attendance to speak to the identity of the
deceased , but a parcel directed to Mr . Edward Stamford , Falcon Inn , Minster-streel , Reading , was in his possession when he took his passage , and was produced for the inspection of the jury . The passengers who sa * r the dreadful occurrence said the person to whom the parcel was directed , they believed , was the brother of the deceased , and declared that no blame could be justly attached to the engineers , who had warned the deceased to keep away from the engines . It was found . that the opening where the deceased attempted to descend to the engine-room was not the proper passage , Jbut that
iie grating iiad been taxen . on to aamit air and light into the place below , and for the purpose of oihng various parts of the machinery . The Coroner said it was impossible to identify the mangled remains of the-deceased . A more horrible and heart-sickening spectacle he had aever witnessed . That the deceased came to his untimely end by his own imprudence there could be-no doubt , tot on the whole be thought it would be as well to postpone the inquest until the relatives of the unfortunate man were communicated with . The Jury acceded to the Coroner ' s « ugge » - tion , and adjourned the inquiry until Tuesday next . — GloU of Saturday .

Pooa Law Assault . —On Monday weekj the master of the onion workhouse , belonging to the Newton Abbott Union , situate at Chvidlevgh , vras summoned before the magistrates for the following assault on ayoung woman , an inmate of that house . The pauper had given some offence to the master , who had her seized , and a strait waistcoat put upon her , in which she was confined for a considerable time . The magistrates , Mr . A . Chichester , and Mr . C . H . Monro , after a most patient hearing , adjourned the case to the following day , In order to
consider the right claimed by the master of a workhouse to inflict such a degree of punishment upon its inmates . The defendant admitted the offence , and asserted that he was justified in what he did , as he acted by order of the board of guardians . The magistrates did not give their judgment until last Saturday , when they declared that neither the defendant nor the board of guardians had any power , under the Poor Law Amendment Act , to punish paupers at their discretion , and fined him £ 5 , the highest penalty the law allows . — Western

Halles , engineer , in Page ' s-walk , Grange-road , Bermondsey , were totally destroyed by fire . When discovered the flames were confined to a small portion of the premises , but on the doora being opened they extended to and destroyed the whole of the building . Mr . Halles is insured in the Sun-office , but the amount of his insurance uoold not be ascertainedw The cause of the fire is also unknown . The DoBCHESTER Laboubebs . —A dinner is to be given to the Dorchester labourers , on Easter Monday next , at White Conduit House , the proprietor of which has received orders to provide for 2 , 000 . There will be a grand procession of the Trades' Unionists on the occasion .
Strange Accident at a Wedding . — "Marriage , like the marriage ceremony , " said Byron , in one of his cynical moods , "beging with ' dearly beloved , ' and ends with amazement' "This was verified to the letter in Braunstone Church , on Sunday morning , at the wedding of a young couple , who were married by the Rev . Mr . Fry . After the knot was tied , the bridegroom marched his " dearly beloved" along the aisle ; and the Rev . gentleman walked in the rear of the wedding party . Suddenly , the ears of the foremost were stunned by a loud
crash ; and turning round , they saw , to their " amazement , " that the family vault of theWiristanleys , over which they had just passed in safety , had fallen in with the clergyman , who was almost buried in the tomb , and severely injured by the pavement which had accompanied him in his unexpected and alarming descent . H , was relieved from his awkward situation , wounded and bleeding , and his injuries were . so serious , that the serrices of the day , at Braunstone and Kirby Muxloe , were , of necessity , set aside . —Leicester Chronicle .
Annoyance of a Lunatic—On Saturday , at the Kensington Petty Sessions , Dr . Glenn , Brompton-row , accompanied by Mr . Gray , a solicitor , applied to the sitting magistrates for their advice . Dr . Glenn stated , that spine time since he was called in to attend a gentleman named Nelson , of College-street , Chelsea , whom he found to be decidedly insane , and he . accordingly recommended he should be placed under restraint . From that period Mr . Nelson had taken every opportunity of annoying him ; and during the late severe frost had exhibited , while skating in Hyde-park and in
Kensington-gardens , large placards , on his person , denouncing him ( Dr . Glenn ) as a murderer , perjurer , &c , and during the last two days he had employed bmself in parading up and down Brompton-row with a large placard , cautioning persons not to go to Dr . Glenn for advice , or they would be poisoned . The bench said , they did not see how they could interfere in the case . It was matter for a civil action , unless some breach of the peace took place in consequence , and all they could do would be to send one of the " police sergeants to Mr . Nelson , to induce him to refrain . ' - ' ' ¦
Suspected Murders . — -A circumstance occurred at Coleshill Jpn Saturday last , which has occasioned eonsideraoie excitement in that town and neighbourhood . A boy was set to dig up some waste ground at the back of a house , for the purpose of sowing carrots , when he turned up two skulls and several other bones of a human body . Mr . Barker , the surgeon , was immediately sent for , who pronounced them to be . those of a woman and child . From recollection of the circumstance , suspicion instantly fell on a man who bad formerly lived on the premises , and who had removed about eight
years ago to Leamington , with his wife and child , but of whom nothing had since been heard , except that the husband had married again . Inquiry was promptly made , and he was traced to this town , in employment at the station of the London and Birmingham Railway Company , as a journeyman carpenter . He was on Monday . last taken into custody , and removed to CoLesfeiU , to await the result of the coroner ' s inquest , which was to be held last night at the Swan ; but the result of the inquiry we have not been able to ascertain . —Coventry Herald .
Extensive Fire at Cheltenham . —Friday morning week , afire was discovered on tbe premises of Mr . ^ MarshaHj , an ironmonger in extensive business , in Clarence-street , Cheltenham ; and on the alarm being communicated numerous persons hastened to the spot , and the two town engines and the Protector engine were brought to the scene of conflagration . The latter engine was very effective , but the two former , we regret to say , from the piping having become old and impaired , were comparatively useless . The fire continued to rage with awful violence , and at a quarter-past five an express was sent to this city for the Protector engine stationed here under tbe care of Mr . Marsh ; and as a proof of the
promptitude displayed we may mention that this engine , which we understand did most essential service , was in full play upon the flames by half-past six . During the progress of the devastation , we are told that afemale , asister of Mrs . Marshall , escaped from the burning edifice over the roof of an adjoining house , which she entered by means of a sky-light ; she then retraced her steps , and with much courage and presence of mind succeeded in rescuing and carrying in safety by the same route the children of Mr . Marshall ' s familyr Happily , no lives were lost ; but the destruction of property has been very great ; though there was a good supply of water , and the engines were plied with- much vigour , it was impossible to prevent the flames spreading to an adjoining house , occupied by Mr . Streather , grocer , which was greatly injured and much property in it destroyed .
The premises belonging to the Eight Bells were frequently in imminent danger , but were fortunately and by dint of great exertions preserved without much damage . The residence of Mr . Yates , chinaman , was also in a great measure preserved from taking fire , but sustained a good deal of damage to the windows , &c . from the playing of the engines and the other preventive means which were resorted to . By about eleven the fire was completely subdued , but the wreck of property which presented itself was most melanchely to contemplate . Various reports are in circulation as to the cause of the fife , which no doubt was accidental , and as to the amount of loss sustained ; we have beard the latter estimated at from 20 to £ 30 , 000 j but no accurate calculation has as yet been formed . It is satisfactory , however , to add " , that a great part , if not all , is likely to be covered by insurance in various offices , principally in the Norwich Union .
New Poor Law . —Cirencester Union . — Our readers are aware , that _ the Uirencester Board of Guardians are distinguished for having out-Heroded Herod by the allowance of a dietary to the inmates of their "Workhouse more meagre than any of the number submitted to them for selection by -the Commissioner 8 ; these . worthy Guardians are of opinion , and in that opinion the Commissioners concur , that for an able-bodied man , who toils from morn to night , five ounces of bacon per week afford ample animal sustenance . ! Employers of labourers , we are told by the Commons ' Committee of last session , have " an immediate pecuniary interest in avoiding the expense of
maintaining whole families in the Workhouse , " and the following case , extracted from the Glocestershire Chronicle of Saturday , will satisfy the public that their treatment of the out-door poor is admirably calculated to serve the same interest : — " An inquest was lately held c * the body of Mary Hancox , at Ampney Cruds ., The deceased was a poor woman , aged 65 years , the wife of James Hancox , a poor old cripple . Being destitute , the deceased applied to the Cirencegter Beard of Guardian * on the Mcoilay { distant from Ampney aoout threes miles ) the ^ day was Tiiercinrly cold , and after waiting irt

The Capital CoNyicTs at Stafford . —We stated , in our last , that Ann Wycberley , now lying under sentence of death in . pvvt county ; prison , foj the wilful murder of her child , aged upwards of three years , was respited until the 5 th of May , in order to ascertain whether oi * not she is in ! a state of pregnancy . The wretched woEoan' persists iul declaring that she is in that \ state , and if xthat should prove the case , and a few weeks must determiTie the point beyond all doubt , « i further respite , ' until sifter her delivery , will df ; couree' be granted . We believe there is not the leas t hope , in her case , of the mitigation of * ie heaviest penalty pt the Jaw . In Consequence , of representations which have been made
to Mr . Baron ; Gurney , ; respecting the , case of Hannah Heath , convicted of poisoning her grandchHd , a respite until the 5 th of May was -received for Her from his Lordship at Herefordj on Wednesday last Whether this extension . of timewill be : followed / by a remission of the capital punishment will depend altogether , we believe on the result of the inquiry which will be made into all the circumstances of her case . With regard % > Alidridgej convicted of rape and incest , there were serious doubts ^ in ^ the minds of many persons ^ as to the extent of his guilt . We'believe the Learned [ Judge received communications from various quarters , ; and amongst other applications on bijhalfpf the miserable many was a
personal one from Captain Maihwaringj of Whitmore Hall , who was on the granil jury . Certain parts ^ pf the evidence on his trial ; on mature ¦ consideration , appear so perfectly incongruous as necessarily to gire . rise to doubt as toVthe , degree of his guilt . This was felt by . tbe gentlemen who interested themselves oh the part of Alldridge , and also on the part of the Learned Judge , from whom a reprieve for him was received ; on ^ Friday •' last . The unhappy manias expecting to suffer the next morning . We are ; told that he was in a state of mind becoming his awful ^ situation , ^ ^ though he declared that he had been unjustly '; convicted ^ jifothing could exceed his thankfulness to ; God , on the tidings being comhiun | cated to him that his life
was spared . His father-jn-law arid brbther-iii-law bad come to take a final leave of him at the time the news arrived ; and the scene at their interview afterwards was truly affecting . Alldridge is a miner ^ and we believe has led a very debauched life ; he is extremely ignorant , though he has attended diligently to the instructions of the Chaplain since his conviction , and expresses great gratitude for the ' gains that they have taken to | enlighten his mind . Ji is probable that he ^ will be transported for life , In expectation of the execution this morning ( 3 aturd ^ y ) of both Heath and Alldridjge , or one of them ^ a great humber of persons entered Stafford last night ; as many as one > hundred and fifty came by the railway from Westbrobinwich arid the neighhoyifnood .---Stafford Advertiser .
Fatal iMPRisbNMENT for Debt . —Saturday Mr , Thomas Thorny a respectable master tailor , who was removed from Whitecross-street to the Fleet on Thursday , died suddenly under the following distressing circumstances : ^ It appeared that he had been in a declining state of health for Home months past . He was then indebtedi to his creditors in a sum of £ 140 . Since Christmas the unfortunate man paid £ 100 of the debt , and gave a bill for the balance , upon which he wsia arrested three days after it became due , an d conveyed to Whitecrossrstreet prison . There hjs health began rapidly to deeline , and his spirits were entirely broken ; His young wife attended on him ; unceasingly , and , on Thursday he had himself removed to the Fleet , The moment he entered the prison , it was quite eyideiat his days were numbered . With difficulty tie was
conveyed to his room , and on Saturday , about three , his wife haying left the room a few moments , on her return found him a corpse * This is the second victim within eight days . This unfortunate man ' s fate / bas produced a great serisation , and many of the prisoriers in the Fleet exclaim j if two deaths in eight days do not stimulate-the legislature to the passing of the bill for the abolition of arrest , all hopes of relief from that measure vanish . The expenses of getting emancipated under the insolvent act are ; so great , that many pine in prison for the want of Hieans to do so , independent of the . imprisonment for two months , during which they are exposed to assooiatioa with persons who remain in prison in defiance of their creditors , arid consequently they leave the prison with a far'less moral feeline : than when they eritered it . . •" : ¦
Fatal Accident .- ^ - On Monday morning , about two o'clock , the chief engineer of the Topaz Graveserid steamer , belonging to the Diamond Steam Boat . Company , and whose name is William Standford , was unfortunately drowned off Fresh Wharf London Bridge . It appears that the ill-fated iridividual was in the act of stepping from the wharf into the Topaz , which was moored alongside , when his foot slipped and he fell headlong into the river . The alarm was instantly given , and in the course often minutes his body Was ; got out and conveyed on boara the Topax , where every exertion ; . vbs made by Mr . Fox , the captain , arid the crew to restore animation , but without success . He has left a wife and one child to deplorehis loss .
Respectable Ruffians . ——At Makvlebone-Office . —On Tuesday Mr . Francis Sanders , Mr . Arthur Barclay , ^ Mr . Henry Green , '¦ and Mr . Edward Richards , appeared before the sitting magistrates , Messrs . Rawlinson nnd Shutt and Lord Montford . the first ^ named defendant charged with having in the inbst unmanly , infamous , and indecent manner attacked two unprotected females , named Maria Rose , a well-dressed woman , wife of ^ William Rose , a respectable mechanic , residing at Sudbury , near Harrow ; and her aged mother-in-law , Hustley Rose , a widow . . They were also jointly and severally charged with having assaulted the ; patrol in the execution of their duty . The two first-named
defendants described themselves , as solicitor ^ residing at \ 4 , Gray ' s ^ irin-s ( juare ; , and the third as a naercbant generally residing at Twickenham , but whose place of business was at 63 Chancery-lane . The residence of Mr . Richards did not transpire . The case excited a considerable degree of niteresti and prior to its being- called on thd defendant Sanders presented to : Mr . Sanderson the card of a Mr . Stuart , to whom he ( the magistrate ) was known , with the view , as was afterwards admitted , of having , if possible * the case heard in , the private room ; but Mr . Rawlinson j who at all times very properly objects to lend himself to the stifling of matters in which the public are particularly :
interested , and as a matter of course demanding : tbe fullest inquiry , , gaVe back the card , and expressed his intention of going into the particulars in no other way than in the public office ^ Maria Rose , the female first alluded to , said ^ -Lftst iiight , about nine o ' clock , my ijiotber-in-law called at our house , and after taking supper with us , I '' : ' went a little way with her towards her home at Harrow . We had not get far-before we ¦ met the three defendants Green , Richards , and Barclay , who said soine-, thing which sounded like " you dear darlings ^ ' ? and passed . on ; we presently , afterwards iriet Sanders and another , who is riot here , when both , of tueni laid hold of riiy clothes and prilled them ; over
niy head , at the same lime using language of a most obscene and abominable description , and ill-using me in a most shameful inanner . Mr . Rawlinson , —Did they appear drunk ;? Complainant . —^ I can't say that they were ^ drunk , but they had certainl y been drinking . Mr , " Rawlinspn . ' —How long did they use'ill language to you before ^ hey raised your clothes ? . Complainant . —They pulled up my clothes at the same momeiit they ottered the tafamoas irords . Their :, conduct altogether was so violent , that not only ; toy gown , but all my nnder-clpthing was torn , arid my peraon mnchinjured . Although some distancR from any house , I called put for my husband , thinking to but
frighten them ^ they said , " 1 >—nyour husband , we don't care foT him ; you may call him as long as you like . " They continued to ;^^ ill-treat me indecently for some time , and on th ^ ir making their way off , I and my mother made the best or our way home . On reaching the house I fell down exhausted with fright arid the ill-upaffe I had experiericedr and as soon as ! was able , mode known tne ; particulars to my husband . The patrol were made acquainted with the affair , and the defendants were soon taken . In answer to T ^ li .. Rawlinson , the coriiplairiant said that the defendants were all together when tHe patrol caine up , and that the otner peritpri by whoin she was so outrageously attacked / had made off in a

¦ ;¦ ;¦ - ¦¦'¦ ¦ . ' •¦ . - .: : , ¦ : classes *; -. ,. ¦ ; . ;¦ : ; ,. ; A lengthy article ; , bearing this title , in Black wood ? i Magazine of the present month , seems to require some little passing observation . We have a native English love of candour and frankness , even though it be of a disagreeable lund . We hate the cant of hypocrisyy under 'whatseever form it may be manifested ; and nerice we have been accustomed both to-thmk arid to say of the rival sections of the robber-faction , thai : of the two thieves the Tory was the more honest , because he
s usually candid enough to avow his real purposes , whilei ; . the Whig invariably labours to ^ mislead and to conceal selfish narrow policy under the cloak of big Words and feigned philanthropy . "With the antipathy towards every thing of good which is natural to the domination of evil principles / the Tories are now getting rid of this single redeemirig feature in theirvhideous character . Seeing how their antagonists , the Whigs , have profited by practising upon the ; confidence of a generous peoplej they are endeavouring to turn round and stem the . torrent of
adversity , by seizing the arms of their enemy , and usingtherii as weapons , offensive and defensive , ; at the same-.- . time . " This Is an extremely dimcuit game to play ; and ho the Tories find , it Two things are necessary to be done to ensure successfirst , to shovr the people that the Whigs have proved false to all their promises of amelioration and popular advantage j ^ and secondly , to induce the people to subinit , after having their eyes thus opened , to a repetition of the same . ' treatment by their newly discovered " friends . " (! l For the
accomplishment of both these objects , the Tory is under the necess'ity of sustaining frequent changes of character , vaccillating between the stern uncompromising hardihoood of yillany natural to his character , and theinsidious cajolery which is the essential characteristic of Whiggery . Hence in the last / Election the Tories attempted to play the Whig game , by affecting to be at least desirous of so far aiding the accomplishmehfc ' of public right as
might be done by the destruction of the New Pobr Law . Steeped to the lips in pledges to tear this blotted page from our statute book , mariy Tory members were returned through the influence of the masses , solely on account of those pledges , the people rigbtlyjudgjngthat where there was no realdifference as to matters of essential principle , the best policy was to support the best men on matters of : detail ; Mr . Fielden ' s motion shewed the value
of these pledges . Out of 318 Tories not riiore than about a . doxen . voted for the repeal of the Pobr Law . The party purpose having been gained by flattering the hopes and exciting the expectations of the people , they proceed like old veterans to make the best of the advantage thus obtained by stratagem ; and while . Fra&rpoints to the 318 T 6 ries in the House us the evidence of a call on the part of
the people for the " Conservative Leaders to reassuniie the reins of Government , " Blackwood coolly aits'down-. and , as the representative of his party , again lifts up the vizor , exhibits the usual rigidity of Tory feature , ascribes a large portion of the social evils now existing to the mischievous Whig doctrine of the people ' s having any right to the least option in the management of their own affairs , and asserts at once that : —
" Power , Ibdaed in the great mass of society wilVbe exercised in folly and concerted to injustice . An attempt must De made to place it in hands where it wili be employed more according to . the rules of reason : and less under the influence of recklessnesa or passion . " After having laid it down as a rule that the poor towj / be a great deal more vicious than the rich , he goes on : — ik We speak not here of moral accountability but of external
condKct ; not of occasional exceptions but of general rules . And in these points of view it cannot be bid that among the very poor We must expect to find those violations of law , arid thorn irregularities of feeling and conduct , that are mWt dangerous to the fabric of society . Poverty a * it is exhibited in our great towns , vrhen ashounting to actual want and pinching destttutiohj must involY . e active elements of . vice and diaoider . Vicey in many cases , will produce poverty ; poverty in many cases will , jroduce vice , and either way they must go , too generally , hand in hand . "
The more closely we examine the characters of the ; Whig and Tory factions , the more strongly we become convinced that . " tlifey twain are indeed one flesh . " Notwithstanding the apparent straight-forward Toryism of this paragraph , there isin it a great deal of Whig trickery and finesge . How carefully does the writer , while he exhibits the connection which , he says , must subsist between poverty and vice as a reason for withholding political power from poverty , keep oiit of sight the least hint of an inquiry into the why and the wherefore such poverty exists ,
^ amounting to actual want and pinching destitution , " Not a single word of £ n Inquiry whether this very " actual want and pinching destitution" be not itself a consequence of the non-pessessiori of political and legislative power . No word of intimation that this very state of things , which he affirms to generate crime arid to render unfit for the exercise of power , has been superinduced by the intervention of those "hands" into which that power has been placed , between the aggregate wealth ofthe country , as it is being continually produced , andtheaggregate
population of the Country , to whom it legitimately belprigs . Not a single word does Black ^ oood b&j of the means by which this robbery is effected ^ and this " actual want and pincWng destitution" produced ; which means consist only in the single " power" of law-rhaking , for which he is so anxious to prove the incapacity of poverty from its association with crimes And then the modesty of the assertion that vice and poverty must " go harid in hand !" How ^ immaculately ^ ^ rtuous must all the : ^ better '' classes of societj' be ! We dare swear that such a
thing as vice and immorality is unknown-among them . They are quite another sort of thing . The selfish passions form no portion of their nature . If they "kee-a ^ ^ back : the ^ hire of the labourer ^ b y ^^ fraud" or by the strong arm of " power , " without even the cover of a frauds it is only tesjf he snduld be led by it into ^ habits of iriteniperance" which might injure his morals . Seriously , there is no man , not ia , born idiot , / who does not know that vice and crime of every description ^ s far morerife ariiong the " better " than among the poorer orders of society- ^ -tnat

according to the rules-of reason ^ arid l ess under the influence of recklessness and passion ; " and ifit be ; riot true , whence arose the " actual want and pinching destirntion ? " ; ; It is very hard for a man who set ? out on a false and bad principle to be consistent . In the very next sentence we have this writer's horror of the ^ elements ot vice and disorder" involved in the 11 actual want- and pinching destitution" of the poor , converted j all at once , without the assignment of
any reason , into a burst of empty wonder at their moral , orderly , and peaceful demeanour , " under circumstances of severe aggravation ! . ' ' - ; ' * !

What is the " mysterious machinery '' waida . excites the ^ ' fearful " andr" reverent" wonder of to none out those who , like Blackwood , seek a Blackwood ? That " machinery" w " mysterious ' pretext or an apology for the robbing propensities and practices of the " better " classes . The ^ machinery '' is simply the high state of moral feeling in . the masses , who have not yet become thoroughly debased by the operation Of Whig and Tory doctrines of exclusiveness ; and their superior intelligence , induced by an active acquaintance with the
real business : of life . Their moral feelings teach them rather to suffer wrong than to commit wrong j their intelligence shows them that the principles of eternal justice are mighty enough to yrork their own way ^ and that , by the very ; nature and coustitution of society , they hold , within their grasp , a moral force infinitely greater than all : the physical violence that could be resorted to . This , and this only , is the " machiriery" by which the masses are now holden in peaceful sabjection to the laws . ; And does the gaping driveller dare to insinuate that the same sense of moral
feelirig , ; and the same intelligence which holds them now in subjection to laws which they cannot respect , because they have emanated from a dominant faction ^ would be less effectual for that purpose when their operation had reference to laws which they must respect , because emanating from themselves !! Blacktoood laments pitifully ' the imprudence of the opposing faction , in having , aa he supposes , awaked the people out of a sound political nap . He seems to think the people would never have dreamed of having any business ia the matter , if the Whig leaders had not been spiteful enough , for the sake of plaguing the Tory leaders , to conjure up the ghost of h'berty , in the shape of the Reform Act , and he bitterl y bemoans the illrfortune of the people in being able to . guess eggs when they saw shells . - " : '; .

" The . Whigs succeeded m . disseminating feelings of dissatufactiou and opposition to established things , among millions to . vyhom they could not convey the wnitations : of meaning ; ' or ¦ of practical . views . which ¦ accompanied the same , feelings in . their own minds . Their language . was assented to by those who / attached :. very different . ideas to the Words empJoyedj -and who had ivery diffeTerit ' - " notions of the remedies to be : resorted to . The ; Whig declaimed generally against the . grievances entered upqn ¦ : the country by the policy of Tory wara ahi . Tory profusion . The labouring ana starving classes applied to their own . severe , bat inevitable , liardstiips the reasoning Which their betters madenae of as to grieyancea of aninfr
hitely lighter kind ; The feeling has been propagated ia every corner , and modified in each class by the citcumgtances of theirsituation , and the character of their minds . . The Whig railed at the ; predominance of an exclusive oligarchy , which themechanic anderatandi as embracing every ^ ppw ^ r of restraint which . may be vested in the minority 01 society over the . majprityi The Whig denounced as an intolerable oppression the monopoly enjoyed by a few persons in possession of Parliamentary influence ; and the poor : man eehoes the . saine cry inl ' the senfle thatr every syateui of representation which excludes-hisown class , is monopolizing and unjust . The Whig held but vague and undefined benefits to the country as the sure result of his own political system ; and all who suffeT ^ in : anv form have been led to dweirupon this illusive croswet
and Jo look for a system of government under which their own miseries are tobe relieved . The effect of all this is to produce in each class that has occasion to be discontented with their lotj a habU ^ of repining at existing institudons , and of longing for political ameliorations , instead of making tha best of their condition , whether by industrv or by resignation ; a- habit . of connecting , all evils with , political causes ,: and a corresponding opinion that no polittcal system ' » has reached its acme of improvement , or ia entitled to popular respect , tinder which any socials whatever continue to be endured by the people . " : - ¦; , ' : Now , in every single word of this we concur . We are as well aware as Blackwood that the Whigs , when they inveigh against grievances , always mean those only which affect themselves .
We differ from him however , in the opinion that "Those agitators were notaware of the meaning or manner in which their doctrines were to be received and acted upon . They foolishly dreamed that they would be taken up , nearly in the same fease b / othersin which ' thej were understood by thefiiselvesi" . ' ¦ ' : ' . '•" ' . - ' : ¦ - ¦ - . .-. '" . : ¦ -. - / . " .. - ' : r ' - . ¦ ' .. Did they really ?! What a ninneyhammer this same Blackwood ' s must be , or what ninneyhammers he must suppose the Whigs to have been ! For what purpose did the Whig Agitators appeal to the people ? To get the help of the people against the Tories , to be sure . And why should they expect the people to help them unless they had
some interest in doing so . Had they expected the people to understand their talk of ll Reform " as they themselves understood it—^ they never could have expected—and , therefore , never would have asked , -the people to help them to get it . No , no . The Whigs were not such ninnies . They intended their doctrines to be uriderstpod as they were understood . They intended the people to suppose them sincere in seeking to restore the principle of self-government ; just as the Tories intended the people to think therii sincere in seeking the repeal of the New Poor Law . The people knew the
doctriries to be true , and , therefore , they received them gladly , even though preached by Whigs ; j ust as th ey knew that the New Poor taw ' ought to be repealed , and , therefore , they gladly received a proinise for its repeal , even from the Tories . They now know them both to be the ^ ; tvro legs of the same coinpass , stretching ^ it may be , widely apart at times , but ever working npon or revolving found the same pivot . They yet stick to their ovm reading ai the Whig doctrines j and for the especial comfort of Blackwood ' s , we beg to assure him that this generation shall not pass till all these things be fulfilled ^"
Speaking of the argameats used for the carrying of the Reform Bill , he says— y ^ '' ¦ The people ' s rights were ; made a mam foundation of the contest : a plea as groundless as it was mischievous . Men have indeed aright to practical freedom , but noabstract right to political power . - It is a question of pure expediency in whom the franchise shall be vested : and" no class of people hav 6 aright to demand it , except by first proving that their excloaion from it is injurious , and that their possession of it will besafe and salutary . Bitterindeed are the fruits mvolyed in the principle that any class had this supposed right to aa extenswn of the franchise . If the ten-pound houseuoldei had the riirhr . how cbuldit be denied to the nine pounds or seven
or six , or one pound occupant when he gamete demandit ? Why should any man be excluded bom such a right , who was to-live under the laws , or to cpnmbute to Ore revenues of the country ? Expediency admits of . adjustment . Expedi . ency of one kind ia balanced by . expediency of another . But right , acknowledgedr »^ , admitsof no compromise , nor is any ^^ man bound to saenfice it , for any wiisideration but his bwnchdice . " ,:: '] : ; / - ¦ .:: ¦ -y .

That " no class of persons have a right td ; demand the frai ^ se , ; exc ^ t ^ p > oving that 4 heir exclusion from it is injurious , " we at once admit ; arid the hare mention ; of " actual want and pinching destitution , " as existing among those who have : nbt the ; franciuVe ,
