" T" remedy these manifol . 1 evil « , to -which 1 have tracsrd tte miseries and ruHjricga of i ^ y country , it has been acknowledged bv every man who is not within the pale of usurpation and corrnption , that Catholic Emascipatios , and a restoration o ? Popolab . Re-PBESektation , are the only iflicient expedients . ! But if jostice , -which reqnires that no man , much l ^ ss the decided majority © f a nation , should be deprived i > f his political rights on account of bis jellgions opinions , ordains that the Catholics should noi have fewer Hghts than the Protestants ; and if it is an incontrovertible fact , that such is the present usurpation of rights , as well Protestant as Catholic , that even though the Catholics were admitted to the fullest participation of the rights possessed by their Protestant fellow-citizens at
present , Troth Protestant and Catholic would [ find , that the rights of which they -woe robbed , were infinitely more numerous , and more important , than ] those they enjoyed , evenbefere the present annlhflatlon of every-rartage of constitutional right—It must appear manifest to thB most superficial observer , that Catholic exaltation to the present height of Protestant freedom only , must prove wbelly inadeguite to the establish ment of our Nattokal Libk&tt .. Disdaining , ! then , to add one argument more , to the thousands which remain already unanswered , in favour ef the Emancipa tion of my Catholic Countrymen , letting it rest on the solid basis of justice , and blending it "with the gpiercd cause , I shall conclude this address vrith an investi gation of our general right . )
He then , after many pages of demonstraiionj concludes thus : — t "If I have succeeded in demonstrating thai selfinterest is the goTernlng principle in politics , as well as of all human action ; that we are the creatures of our -want and desires ; that thwe who poBseas the means of satisfying those wants and desires , most possess the meass of influencing the actions , and commanding the services of mankind ; that those who possess property are possessed of those means , and that those laws which monopolize property , invest a few with the power of dictating to the many , which is invariably abused , and a necessity on the part of the many of yielding to such a dictation , I trust I have impressed on the minds of my countrymen , that all Reform which would leave the monopoly © f property untouched , must prove insufficient , and that the only reformation by
which their liberties can be secured 1 b that which destroys the dependence , and establishes the independence , of the Whole Constituent Body . I [ trust 1 have convinced them , that the independence of the Constituent Body is the guardian of liberty , and not the discretion or virtue of those they elect ; and that the abolition of all laws for the monopoly of property is the sole means by which it can be established . LIBERTY CAXSOT STAKD BUT ON THE BROAD . mH , ASD PERFECT BASIS OP TJNiYERSAIi RESENTAT 1 ON . Ss the superstructure "what it ; may , if you will have liberty , you must first establish this foundation for it to rest on ; and that yon may have this perfect representative basis , you ! must look to the constituent people of whom it is formed ; you must abolish all monopolies , which other wise would aestroy your independence . Thus yon will reform toubselves . This is ihe true Reformation . "
Finally ; we commend this hook to universal reading ; and especially to Irishmen , for whom it is not less calcnlated now in 1843 , than at its first publication is 2758 . Irishmen now seek Repeal ; and the reasonable pretext for their asking is , that they stand not on a level with England , with which they are pretended to be united . But let them beware of any Bepeal which would merely raise thun to the level of misgovernment in England : for this would be only , as Arthnr O'Connor gays , to discover that the rights to which they had been admitted were ; comparatively valueless , and infinitely less than those from which they were still debarred ; and that it was just time to b * gin a new struggle for the attainment of their true position .

" REBECCA" IN WALES . " Rebecca" is far from being appeased . She still continues her nocturnal visits ; and though her destructive prowess is , for the present , confined to Toll-gates and Toll-houses , it is apparent that there are other and deeper causes of dissatisfaction which will , in all probability , lead to more extended action , unless a vigorous and adequate remedy for the intolerable grievances of the Farmers and rtheir labourers be immediately devised and applied . There is great room to doubt that our "Statesmen " have not the necessary courage even to attempt this . They will rely on the" ordinary powers of the law "
to suppress the " spirit of dissatisfaction and outrage f and if these are not sufficient for the purpose they will apply for , and receive " extraordinary " powers . By these means they may possibly succeed in "*• putting down" " Eebecca "; though it wonld appear from her eytematised movements ; the nature of the country she has at present for her abode ; and the spirit and faithfulness of the son 9 of ihe hili 3 , that such "pntting-down "; will not be accomplished without difficulty . But should this " poliey" succeed , what better shall We be ? Shall we have ridded ourselves of the
danger ! Will the causes of the turmoil and ferment be removed ? If " . Rebecca / 'be hanged even , will that enable the Fanners to pay their "fixed Tithes "; 4 heir " increased and iKCREisrNG Hates" ; their " h > gh Rents" ; and their " EXCESSIVE taxation" ! Will the stringing-up of *• Rebecca" add to their ability to pay these " fixed" charges , with Wheat at six shillings a bushel ? O , no ! There is the cause To that point our efforts must he directed . Peel ought to find out the way how to enable the Farmers to pay the Rents , Rate 3 and Taxes " fixed" when
Wheat was at ten and twelve shillings a-bushel , now that he has by his Peel ' s Bill and his Hrel's Tabtfp reduced Wheat to ax shillings a-hnshel ! When he has done that , he will have ridded himself of the inconveniences and dangers arising from the /> rganizsd movements of " Rebecca and her daughters "; bnt until he has done that , or reduced Rents , Rates and Taxes to Ihe altered circumstances of the country consequent on his measures , he will wield the powers of ihe Jaw , whether " ordinary , " or M extraordinary , " to very little pnrpose .
Every thing in connection with this matter is of high moment ; especially to the toiling millions of British subjects , whether located in England , Wales , Ireland , or Scotland . To them it is , indeed , all-importauL The pressure of the system Jhas , at last , reached the middle class Farmers . It ; has long been known that the only hope for redemption on the part of the working-prodneer from a state of thraldom and consequent poverty and keen privat ion , -was in the certainty that THE THING
would destroy even those who had contributed to its malntainence , at the expense of the comfort , wellbeing , personal liberty , and even the lives of < the mast . That hope is now on the eve of being realized 2 The screw has reached the jniddle ^ clas 3 es . It is working them up to desperation . They openly avow their own " recklessness" and don't-care-whatthey-do " -ism ! It is of thiB class that" Rebecca" is the head ! She is leading them pretty successfully as yet ; and we have not seen , nor are we able to anticipate , the effects that may result from her
warfare . The writer in the Times , from whom we quoted so copiously last week , continues Ms communications The nature of the straggle he describes , and ; the minute revelations he makes , as to the condition , feelings , and designs of the Welsh Farmers ; together with his candid and open avowal of the real tsauses of the " Rebecca" ferment ; make apology needless for again giving copious extracts from his epistles . To understand the nature , and extent , and catuse of the Welsh Farmers' movement is of the last importance to those for whom we write . Here are the means ta enable them to form an opinion : — Karberth , Pembrokeshire . June 29 .
- In a former communication I stated that notices had been given at If arberth anneuncing the intention of the mal-cont « 3 ts to pay a visit to it to-day . This being the case , I yesterday left Carmarthen , in order that I might be upon the Epot , and personally observe what took place . On my way 3 passed St . dear ' s , w ^ jere the destruction of the gates first commenced ; and Ibsw two toll-houses in rains , with the place where one tollhouse and a gate bad stoc-d , but which had been razed to the ground so perfectly that a stranger would inot know that Buch things bad ever * tood npon the spot . All through my journey , over a distance of upwards of thirty miles , the same tale -waB told me by every one I discontent
conTeraed with , and the aame universal ^ and spirit of insubordination prevailed . AfterIhad arrived at a place called Bigelly , eleven miles from Pembroke dockyard , the road to Kaiberth bemg acrossthe country , and it being then after ten o ' clock at si £ b . t , I proenrw * one of the country people as a guide , and on the way con-Tersed with him as to the general feeling of the peopie as far as his knowledge went Be described to me in simple but most forcible terms the miserable poverty they-were . Buffering , and the sin , the wickedneeSi ' and the oppressions under which he said they laboured , I ought here to remark that the lower orders in Wales have a considerable degree of religions fanaticism about

them ; are most of then . Dissenters , and in the constant habit ef quotia ;? > Jcripti"Te for everything which they advance ; and tba raan anplied some tent from Ssripture to almost every obsers ^ tipn that he used : he compared the present season to Daniel ' s vision ; and as we passed the TJnion-honee—by ibe way , by far the most substantial and best built hou ^ e in the neighbourhood —fee said ,-Ah ! Sir , there ' s the bouse of oppression , ' them whom God hath joined together let no man put asunder / l > o you , Sir , think it right that they should , because we are poor , take our children from their mother , and me from my wife , if I was compelled to go in there ? And d « jou think it right that if a poor girl had been led astray , she should be obliged to pay all for the child ? That law has caused a pretty many to be put out of the way—it causes the murder of the innocent—but nothing can ] stand that ia against God , find this law is against God ' s word . "
On reaching Karberth , although it was then that late hour of the night at which usually the inhabitants are all at rest , I found the town in a complete commotion . The magistrates had held a sitting ; Bpecial constables had been sworn in ; and a squadron of the Castle Martin yeomanry cavalry ( the same regiment which distinguished themselves- against the French at Fish ? uard ) , commanded by Ma jor Bowling and Lieutenants Bryant and Byera , had just marched in . I inquired carefully as to their reasons for apprehending another visit from " Rebecca , " finding that she had not only been there three times already , but had destroyed all the gates above the town . I was informed by one of the magistrates that the redoubtable Kebecca ^ herself had on Monday evening passed through where the toll-gate and
toll-house at the upper part of tbe town used to stand , and addressed the toll : collector , demanded what he did there , and upon the man ' s attempting to answer , told him that between that time and Thursday night she and her children , to the number of 1 , 000 , should come again , and that if he was there and demanded toll , she would not pay it , but ; blow his brains out . The tollcollector then asked what she could want there as both the gate and the toU-houBe were down . " Rebecca " replied that there were larger houses than that should come down . The man then said , " What i the poorhouse ? " " I answer no questions , but you shall see , " was the answer , and she passed on , leaving the colleotor in a state of the utmost consternation . As tbe Union Workhouse had been threatened with an attack
during the night , a detachment of the yeomanry , under tbe command of Sergeant-Majsr Rees , was stationed in the house the whole night ,- and special constables were sent out to observe anything . which might take place in the snxronndisg country ; a despatch was also sent express to Captain Mansell , at St . dear ' s , to call out the troops under his command , and scour tbe various roads between < St . dear ' s and Narbeth , so as to be enabled to render jany assistance Which might be needed , and also to cut off any parties they might meet on the xoads . At about half-past twelve o ' clock at nlgfat the-special constables , who were out upon the watch on the Cardigan road , observed the "Bebeccaites" approaching tothenumber of between 500 and l , 000 , on horseback and on foot , with " Bebecca" at their head . They came
on to within half a mile of the upper gate of the town where they were met ] by some one belonging to their party , who informed them of the arrival of the military , and that a portion of them were st-vtioned at the Workhouse . This caused a halt and ft consultation among them . At length , however , the constable incautiously showed himself , and the party , seeing that they were watched , made off . To-day the great fair was held at Narbeth , bnt all passed off quietly , owin ? , no doubt , to the presence of the military . There were hundreds of flue cattle and horses at the fair -, but every one said they had never known so bad a one ; no purchases were made , and , in fact , the prices bffered will be perfectly 8 ! artling to your English readers , viz ., for yearlings only £ 4 were offered ; for a pair of last year ' s calves 25 a . each ; and for a very fine caw not £ i ; horses did not Bell at alL 1 inquired also as to tbe working of the Poor Law here , and endeavoured to procure a
dietary , dec ., but was told by the clerk that he could not give it without an order from tbe Board The farmers and all others , however , complain of some of its clauses bitterly , and declare that tbe rates are very much higher since it has been in operation . With regard to tbe tells , they are as oppressive here as in Carmarthenshire ; only imagine , for instance , from Bigelly to Narberth , a distance of 4 $ miles , there are three toll-gates , each charging 6 d . and 9 d . as the case may be . Above Narberth there are no toll-gates ; there were nine on the Wbitiand trust , viz ., Pnlthrap , 1 ; Trevangban , 2 ; JfiarJ > erth-eaat , 2 ; Narberth Plaindealings-gate , 1 ; Princes or Zudcburcb , 2 ; and Boberston Wathen a . Every one of these are down , and the houses also , with : tbe exception of tbe house at Ludcburch , which is only partly demolished . Nor would the Union Bouses here stand a single night unless garrisoned by military .

which they could better their condition , or even keep their present position . He was much applauded .

STOCKP-OB . T . —Repeal of the Union . —On Wednesday evening last . Mr . Thomas Clark lectured on this subject ou Cave Green . The audience was large , and enthusiastic , the majority being Mr . Clark's own countrymen , who listened with breathless attention to the unanswerable facts adduced in favour of the Kepeal , At the close of the lecture a person entirely unknown asked permission to speak , which was readily granted . His address was nothing better than a very Billy appeal to the worst passions of Irishmen , aud a denunciation of
Englishmen , who , ' he said , would , if tat y had the chance , again volunteer to put Irishmen down . Mr . Clark replied and deprecated all attempts to sow dissensions amongst men , who had such an interest in being united . The best possible feeling was the result of Air . Clark ' s lecture .

HOUSE OF COMMONS . —Fridat , JoneSO . Tbe amendments of the Lords to the Northampton and Peterborough Railway Bill were agreed to . On the motion of Mr . Greene , Chairman of Commit : tees , Mr . Thomas Clarke , solicitor , was called to the bar , and stated that he had been agent for the Marquis of Townahend for the last twenty years , and that the Marquis bad approved of the Townshend Peerage Bill now passing through the Houses of Legislature . On another motion made by Mr . Greene relative to the Bill , the Earl of Leicester ( evidently labouring under emotion ) asked the House for time to bring forward the evidence in his own defence , and expressed bis belief that there was more at the j bottom of the transaction than had appeared by the evidence .
Mr . S . Wortley , who introduced the Bill , assured the Noble Lerd that there was no disposition to hurry forward the Bill ; and that any application he might make in Committee would be listened to in a spirit of the most perfect fairness . J Mr . F . Berkeley gave notice that when the Inclo-Eure Bill came again before the House he should move that it should not apply to any lands within ten miles of London or within five miles of any other town . Iu answer to a question from Mr . Aglionby , Sir James Graham said a communication had been made by tbe Chancellor of the Exchequer to the Postmaster-General , calling his attention ! to the Act for the Registration of Voters , and the necessary order , both with respect te objections and notices of claims , had been prepared by the Post-office , and all the necessary operations would be in force this day . THE FACTORIES HILL .
Mr . B . HaWES begged to ask the Right Hon . Baronet , tbe Secretary of State for thtf Home Department , a question relating to the Factories Education Bill . It was generally understood , that when the Right Hon . Gentleman struck out the clauses relating to education , he left education precisely in ] the same state is the factory districts , as it was under the old law . What he wished to ask the Right Hon . Baronet was whether or not , in the clauses relating to education still standing in the bill , there was any new matter ; and whether they extended beyond that of ( giving to the Privy Council a power of appointment of inspectors ?
Sir James Graham said the Honourable Gentleman had been so obliging as to giye him notice of his intention to ask this question ; but in doing so tbe Honourable Gentleman had paid him ( Sir James Graham ) an unmerited compliment , in supposing that it was in his power , by any explanation hej could give , to make the matter more intelligible than the bill itself set forth . The whole of the bill relatiye to education was comprised in fourclausoa , the 28 th and the Slst inclusive . Mr . Hawes said that very considerable misapprehension existed out of doors , Jas to the tendency of the clauses retained ; and he thought it would not only tend to the convenience of tbe House , but to tbe public itself , if the Right Honourable Gentleman would enter into a brief explanation of tjbese clauses as they now stood . 1
Sir J . Graham believed that as the law existed , and as he proposed it to stand , itj would be Very much the same . At the present time , those who were subjected to the compulsory law were persons between the ages of nine and thirteen . It was proposed to reduce the age from nine to eight . At present ckildren were liable to work in factories for eight hours , and to be educated at any period during the twenty-four hours . It was now proposed that tbe children should only work six hours and a half each day -, and that they should not work both in the forenoon anil the afternoon ; but that the six hours and s half should either be in the forenoon
or in the afternoon , and that in five days out of seven there should be education for J three hours , either in the forenoon on in the afternoon , i By the present law , no notice was taken an to the place where the education was given , or as to the system of instruction that was adopted . Now , it was proposed by the present bill that the Privy Council should have the power to appoint inspectors to visit all the schbo ! s by which certificates were granted ; and on receiving a report from the inspectors as to the inconvenience of the place , or as to any objection in tbe method of education pursued , the Pri ? y Council were empowered to netify to the schoolmaster the defect so reported ; and unless within three months that defect should [ be remedied , ttra Privy Council would have the power of stopping the grant made to the school . Ho believed he had now stated exactly the extent of the alterations proposed , without omitting anything ot the leasi importance .
On the order of the day for jgoing into Committee of supply , , I Mr . Hcme rose to move resolutions , importing that the pension . of £ 21 , 000 a year paid to the Duke of Cumberland ought to be discontinued while he continues to be King of Hanover . No one would be more opposed than himsftlf to any breach of public faith ; bnt no such breach would 'follow from the step he now proposed . He referred to the Acts of Parliament on which the pensions of the Royal Dukes depend ; and he argued , from the language of the enactments , that the provision was originally intended to cease in any case where it was no longer wanted for the raaintainance of its object as a member of the English Royal Family . On the occasion of the late grant to the Princess Augusta of Cam bridge , j the popular character of her father was insisted on ; be would now . on the
ground of unpopularity , withhold the public money from the Duke of Cumberland . But bis main objection was , that the Duke ( was now an independent Sovereign ; for he thought the money of tbe English people ought not to be placed at the disposal of a foreign power , who might employ it against their interests . He had received a paper from several working men , showing that thisj money would maintain 1 , 050 families , and that the exportation of it was the withdrawal of so much from jtbe capital which should employ British labour . The King of Belgium had voluntarily given up the enjoyment of his pension ;
the King ot Hanover ought to be in no better sitnation Most censurable had been the conduct of the Duke of Cumberland in 1835 with rtispect to Orange lodges , which he , a Field Marshal of England , bad continued to encourage among the trooos , in disobedience to the orders of the Horse Guards . ( He ought to have been , brought to a court-martial for that . The Orangemen took a secret oath—an illegal thing , for which poor men , seeking only a rise of wages , had been tried aud punish&d . Mr . Williams seconded the motion . There were now three Sovereign Princes living upon the English taxes—the King of Hano- » er ^ , the King of Belgium , and the Duke of Mecklenburgh SUelltz . These , and tbe like burdens , were the caut . es of the present
pauperism . Sir R . PEEL considered that it would be inconsistent with the good faith of Parliament to withdraw this grant . He thought that thej subject of the Orange lodges had been somewhat unfairly introdueed ; and referred to the proceertings which took place in Parliament upon that snbject in 1835 , including a letter from tbe Duke to Lord J . Russell , then read by that Noble Lord to tbe House , from which it appeared that his Royal Highness , on learning j his Majesty ' s pleasure had taken immediate steps toward the dissolution of the . lodges . Parliament in 1831 when it guaranteed this pension , must have been well aware that the Duke of Cumberland was likely to become King of Hanover ; for the Dukes of York and Kent were then dead , and thete was little probability that KingWHliam would have a son . On two former occasions when this attempt bad been made by Mr . Hume , Parliament had tefused to interfere ; and those refusals were : substantial confir - mations of the grant . i
Jlr . Wallace complained that the Dake had refuted to be examined before a committee of the House of Commons on the jsubject of the Orange Lodges . He spoke of the Dake in terms of general disparagement . i

Mr Fkrrand bs ^ o'I , wh . ) hart mails this motwn ? Why , the member who obtained ilia first seat in Parliament through the itflu nse of the Dake , at Weymouth ! He wonld leave" Mr . Hume to hla conscience ; if he had one . The Orangemen had been calumniated , and now Ireland was ia tbe hinds of traitors . The Orangemen wonid etanol by their Queen , when the selfish views of their opponents would be plainly discerned . Mr . C . Bxjller , in supporting this motion , proceeded on no ground of hostility to the King of Hanover ;
but be construed the words of the Legislature as intending the grant merely for the support of a member of the ^ Royal family as such- Considering the inability of the Crown to provide for its children , he regarded the nation as in loco parentis to them ; but what parent would strip himself to enrich a child who had come into a large fortune from another quarter ? It wavnot wise , to press the people too hardly upon ouch a subject : they were willing to maintain their own Royal family ; but if such grants as these were forced upon them , they would look more rigorously into tha whole subject
Sir Howard DocolaS supported the claim of the King of Hanover . Captain Berkeley eaw no greater beach of faith in ' withdrawing this pension , than iu discontinuing tha title of the * widowa of naval officers to tha pensions which they eould formerly claim . Mr . Ferrand had sard Ireland wa 9 in the hands of traitors : uebimself had supposed it to be in the hands of Her Majesty ' s Mirraters . Xbe House then divided—For Mr . Hume ' s motion ... 91 Agaiast 197 Majority against it 106 MOWDAT JVLT 3 . Mr . VraxiERS presented a petition from the landowners , farmers , and inhabitants of Kent , agreed te at a meeting on Penenden-faeath , for a repeal of the cornlaws . -
Mr . Fersand presented a petition From 25 , 008 thrpad-work knitters of the counties of Nottingham , Difrby , and Leicester , complaining of the suffering to which they were subjected by the effects of machinery and j > ave notice that he -would bring it under the notice of the House at an early day . The Korfolk Island Bill was read a second time . Mr . Blewitt cave notice that he would on Tuesday ask her Majesty ' s Ministers whether the Duke of Welling ton was in the political service of the Crowa , subject to Ministerial responsibility . The House went into committee on the Irish Amu Bill . Lord Clements vindicated his motives in resisting tbe progress of tbe Bill . It was a penal measure ; and every hour , nay , every minute , in obstructh » g its passage , was so much additional liberty to Ireland .
The House then went into committee , beginning with the ninth clause , which had been postponed on Thursday night last , ou account of the ambiguity of its phraseology . The Government now proposed what was practically a new clause , as the phraseology was entirely reconstructed . Lord John Russell , Mr . Moore O'Ferrall , and Mr . Pigott dwelt on the fact that , notwithstanding tha ani ^ er which . had been manifested on the part of the Government and its supporters , on Thursday night , they had now substantially admitted that they had beea in the wrong , ' and practically confessed that the Bill was clumsily constructed , thereby justifying the pertinacious opposition which bad been given to it . Mr . Roebuck objected that according to the forms of the House , the clause must be postponed to tha end of the bill , as it was substantially a new one .
The Chairman decided that it was not substantially a new clause , but an amendment of the existing one . Mr . Roebuck told him that this was a point not for' the decision of the Chairman , but of the committee . Lord John Russell said it was a matter of convenience , ou which strict rale need not be scrupulously adhered to . After considerable discussion , there was a division , when the clause was carried by 128 to 69 . The ! Oth clause was agreed to ; bnt the 11 th clause provoked a long discussion , with several divisions .
Mr . " Morgan John O Cornell , Sir Desham NORREYS and other members , assailed the Atteraey General for Ireland , who seemed incapable of understanding , or explaining the meaning of a Bill , for which , on the part of the Government , he was responsible . At last , after a tough struggle , through every sentence , and the introduction of several amendments , the 11 tb clause was ordered to " stand part of the Bill . " The 12 th clause , which enacts the penalty for keeping arms without license , after an amendment , to which the Government acceded , was carried .
Here the further progress of the Bill was suspended ; and after disposing of same other business , the House adjourned .

London Smithfield Market , MondaTj July 3 . —There was * comparatively speaking , a scanty attendance of both London and country buyers , most of whom manifested much disinclination to purchase Beasts , except on lower terms . However , the primest Scots were taken somewhat more freely than of late , and the improvement noticed in the currencies on Friday last , af 2 d per 8 lbs , was supported ; other kinds at unvaried quotations .

From the interior the supplies of Flour do not exceed the enrrent demand for the article .

Yesterday , a very full meeting of the magistrates of the county of Pembroke was held at Haverfordweat . : Colonel Owen , Vice-Lieutenant of tbe county , took toe chair , and the following magistrates were present —Messrs . John Phillips , of Williamatono , John Lort Phillips , John Allen lloyd Phillippfl , Henry Leach , chairman of tbe quarter sessions , Jonathan Peol , John Hill Harris , John Edwards , W . B . Swan , James Mark Child , William Jones Healhfield , George Ruach , C Mathias , James Propert , Charles Bowen , Joshua Painter , George Kowe , William Phillips , of Bride'shiJl , and the Revs . Q . Harris , Canon of St . David ' s , F . Leech , John Pugb , Thomas Phelps Martin , James James , fee . Tbe Mayor of Baverford-west , and the two other borough magistrates also&tteoded .
The Chairman commenced by reading the Secretary of State ' s letter , which stated that in consequence of icformatii / D which the Government had received , directions had been given to Colonel Love to proceed to Wales , and take the command of the troops there , and exhorting the magistrates to a . strict discharge of their duties , by issuing warrants agaiast all offenders , the Government having placed such troops at their disposal as they thought sufficient to preserve tbe peace . It also expressed the readiness of the Government to offer such a reward as would lead to conviction . The chairman then required the opinion « f tbe meeting as to what was necessary to be done , and after some consultation , it was decided that the southern districts of the county were in such a disturbed state that it was necessary to nave a reinforcement of troops , to be stationed at Narberth as the most central place , and that a communication to that effect should be immediately made to the Borne Secretary .
The Magistrates then issued an order for the assembling of the Yeomanry Cavalry , to be stationed at Narbsnh until relieved by some regular troops . Various remedies were also suggested , some magistrates recommending that the pensioners should be called out , asd placed under the command of the Adjutant of the Militia ; And a manifesto was ordered to be drawn out , stating that the magistrates were prepared to hear aud to redress any real grievances in their . power . At length one of toe Magistrates said— " Gentlemen , —A number of remedies has been suggested , but I have not beard one observation as to the real evil , which it Vie poverty and distress of the country , and which has
ARISEN PROM HIGH RENTS , IKCREASED AND INCREASING TITHES . EXORBITANT POOR AND HIGHway RATES , AND EXCESSIVE TAXATION . ' wftile ihe depression upon Agricultural Produce is such as to put it totally out of the power of any man to meet these demands . " This caused a general sensation ; and the magistrate continued— - " I call npon every gentleman present to lay his hand upon his heart and say if such be not the case . ' This matter , however , was not entered upon , and the meeting separated . I shall offer no remark upon this , but am bound to say that I see nothing but distress in the country . The farmers , instead ot living as we were used to see them , live and eat with their servants , and upon such simple food as barley bread and buttermilk , flummery and potatoes .
Begelly , just below Natberth , is in tbe centre of e'ght parishes , which are all dependant upon the Anthrac te Collieries . I have myself personally inspected those collieries , and have seen at one of them , that of tbe Messrs . Pocock , of St . Bride ' s Wharf , London , I should say upwards of from 8 , 000 to 12 , 000 tons of anthracite lying ou the ground spoiling from the depressed state of tbe trade . There are others here—the KUgetty , Broadmore , Merton , and HeancaBtle Collieries —similarly situated . The proprietors must be Buffering immense loss from the deterioration occasioned to this species of coal by its lying exposed to tbe weather ; and the proprietors deserve b ! gb praise for spiritedly continuing tha works under existing dimoaitieB ; for were they stopped , I fear that the result to this portion of the county , which is now peaceful and happy , would be lamentable . Carmarthen , Saturday Night , July 1 .
Ten have no doubt in town been alarmed by a statement published in the Standard , statin 1 ? that there bed been a batUe at Newcastle Emlyn between the troops and tbe mob , in which the soldiers were worsted . Having read the statement , I happily am enabled to give it a complete contradiction ; although it contains many things that are true , such for instance as tbe death of the soldier Kearns , and is very ingeniously put together . It is perfectly true that tbe Dragoons did ma : ch to Newcastle Emlyn on that day , and that one of the men ¦ was ftrowneo , but it , -was accidentally while balbAng , as 1 have already informed : you in a previons report , and I should not have again alluded to it , but for the impression which must have been made by the report m the Standard . Snch an account having gained admission into its columns is , however , only another instance of the
propriety of a paper relying for its information . upon its accredited reporters alone ; who being upon the spot , and responsible for their conduct , will of course take ^ re n ot to furnish any statements which they have not well ascertained to ; be correct . In fact , there has been no collision between the Bebeccaitea and the military since the attack at Carmarthen on th * Monday , although the work of gate destruction continues nnabated , and is'Indeed carried on every night with greater tffrontory than ever : they are , however , too wary , and have their outscouts too well posted , to be caught , to which must be added that not a single person in the country would give information . I conversed with a very respectable man to-day , who is aware of many of their doings , and knows their per-Bons ; he told me that he had persuaded them sot to
