      history of that eonnferp . In it , will be found the Teal and substantial grierance * cf which Ireland then complained , and not one of which np to the "present hour has been redressed . The author assigns ihe . law-church and the application of its « dneational fnnds , and the Irish landlords and iheiranaBsgEment of their properties , as amongst ike greatest griersnees of that country ; he bIiowb thependclons effect of ihelaw 3 , of primogeniture , of settlement , said entail , and their minnie connexion Trafih the stale church and its dependants . Upon the subject if the land , he contends , as « very hocest man aust contend , that no country can be consdered prosperens , or list people Independent , wherein the system of proprietorship of small farms , and Universal Suffrage , do Bot fonn the base of her social and political institutions .

      " To remedy these mairifolsl eyils , to which I have traced thB miseries and sufferings of my coantsy . it has been acknowledged by every man who is not within the pals of jwurpation ana corrnption , I'iat CiTHOiic Emakcipatioh , and a restoration of Pofulab .

      present , both Protestant and Catholic ; would find , thai the lights' of -which they were robbed , were infinitely ioore numerous , and more impoi taut , than those they enjoyed , even befere the present annihilation of every-vestige of constituUbnal right—it must , appear sacnifett to the mort superficial observer ^ that Catholic exaltation to the present height of Protestant freedom only , must prove wb * lly inadequate to the establishment of our I ^ lTiONAL LlBEBTT , iJisdaining , then , to add one argument more , to tbe -Qio'usaads which xe ; main already unanswered , in j&Y 6 ur « f the Bmancipafion of my Catholic Countrymen , letting I it rest on tbe solid basis of just ice , and blending it with the general cause , I shall conclude this address with an Investigation of our general righi . ;

      He then , after many pages of demonstration , concludes thus : — ] "If 1 bare succeeded in demonstrating that selfinterest is the governing principle in politics , as well as of all human action $ that we are the creatures of our want and desires ; that those who possess the means of satisfying those wants and desires , must potsess the aseans -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 iritb . the power of dictating to the many , whlchfls invariably afessed , and s necessity on the part of the many of yielding to roch a dictation , I trust I have impressed ob the minds of my countrymen , that all Reform which

      would leave tbe monopoly ef property nntonched , most prove insufficient , and that the only reformation by wbicb their liberties can be secured is that which destroys the dependence , and establishes the independence , . of the Whoib Cokstitdest Bqdt . 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 bet established . UBBBTT CAMNOT STAHD BUT ON THE BROAD , ITEM , AKD PERFECT BASIS OF UNIVERSAL HESENTAT 10 N . Be the superstructure what it may , if ypu will have liberty , you must first establish this foundation for it to rest on ; and that you ma ; have this perfect representative basis , yon must look to the constituent people of whom it Is formed ;

      you must abolish all monopolies , which other wise would destroy your independence . Thus yon will reform totjsseltes . This 4 s-the true Bcformatim . " Finally , we tbmmend this boos to universal reading ; and especially to Irishmen , for whom it is not less calculated now in 1843 , than at its first publication in 1798 . 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 them to the level of xniBgoverament in England : for this wonld be only , as Arthur O'Connor says , to discover that She rights to which they had been admitted were comparatively Taintless , and infinitely less , than those from which they were still debarred ; and that it was just time to begin a new straggle for the attainment of their true position .

      " BEBECOA" IN WALES . " Rebecca" is far from being appeased . She sliM continues her nocturnal visits ; and ^ h » ugh 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 their 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 M extraordinary * powers . By these means they may possibly succeed " in " putting down ** " B * becca" ; though it would appear from her sytematised movements ; the nature of the country she has at present for her abode ; and the spirit and faithfulness of' the sons of the hills , that such " pntting-down" will not be accomplished without difficulty . But should this " policy" succeed , what better shall we be ? Shall we hare ridded ourselves of the

      danger ? Will the causes of the turmoil and ferment be removed ! If "Rebecca ' be hanged even , will thai enable tbe Farmers to pay their u fixed Tithes **; their u increased and ixcheasikg Rates" ; their " high Rents" ; and their » EXCESSIVE i ^ cation" ! Will the Btringing-np of *¦ Rebecca" add to their ability to pay these ** fixed" charges , vnlh Wheat at « r ihUVmg $ a bushel 1 O , no 1 There is the cause . To that point our efforts xonst be directed . Pbel onght to find out the way how to enable the Farmers to pay the Rents , Rates and Taxes u fixed ? 1 when

      Wheat was at tea and twelve shulings a-bushel , now thathehasby his Peel ' s Bill andhis Feel ' s Taeut reduced Wheat to six shillings a-bushel I { When he has done ihai , he will hare ridded himself of the inconveniences and dangers arisingf rom the organized movements of "Rebecca and her daughters" ; but until he has done that , or reduced Rents , Rates and Taxes to ihe altered circumstances of the country consequent on his measures , he will meld tbe powers of the law , whether u ordinary , * or ** extraordinary , " to Tery little purpose .

      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-important . The pressure of the system has , at last , reached the middle class Farmers ! It has long been known that the , only hope for redemption on ihe part of the working-producer from a state of thraldom and consequent poverty and keen privation , was In the certainty that THE THING would destroy even those who had contributed to its mavntainence , at the expense of the comfort , wellbeing , personal liberty , and even the lives of the mast . That hope is no w on the eve of being realized ! The screw has reached the middle-classes . It is

      working them up to desperation . They openly avow their own " recklessness" and " don't-cafe-whatthey-do " -ism 2 It is of this clasB that" Rebjecca" is the head ! She is leading them pretty successfully as yet ; and we have sot sees , nor are we : able to anticipate , the effects that may result from her war fare . The writer in the 7 tmes s from whom we quoted so copiously last week , continues his communications The nature of the struggle he describes , and the minnte revelations he maket , as to the condition , feelings , and 4 esign 3 of the Welsh Farmers ; together with his candid and open avowal of the real causes

      otbe ** Rebecca" ferment } make apology needless for again giving copious extracts from his epistles . To understand the nature , and extent , sad cause of the Welsh Fanners' movement is of tha last importance to those for whom we write . Here are the means t © enable them to form an opinion : — Narberth , Pembrakesliire , June 29 . In a former communication I stated that notices had been given at Ifarberth ann « meing the intention of tbe inal-contents to j » y a visit to it to-day . This being the case , 1 yesterday left Carmarthen , in order that I might be upon tbe spot , and personally ohBerve what

      took place . On my way J passed St Glbart , ] where the destruction of the gates first commenced ; and I saw tvrp toll-bouses in ruins , with ihe plate where one tollhouse and agate had stood , bat which had been xszad to the ground to perfectly that a _ stranger would' not know that such things had ever stood upon the spot . All through my jonrney , " oter a distahee of upwards of Bar ^ mites , the s * me tale " was td ^ rine by everjr one Js conversed with , and the aame imiwaal discontent and spirit of insnlkaolnatioTiprCTanii * jUtwJhs 4 arrived eleven xnilai from Pembroke

The magistrates bad held a sitt ! ngi spedal constables had been sworn in ; anda sqnadronof the Castle Martin yeomanry ,, cavairy ( the Ba ^ e . Regiment wbich . dl » tlnguishea themselTes against tae French at Fishguard ) , commanded by Major Bowling and Lieutenants Bryant and Byers , had jast marched In . I inquired carefully as to their reasons for apprehending another visitr from "Rebecca , " finding tbatahe boA not only been there three times' already , but had destroyed all the gates above the' town . T was informed by one of the

      magistrates that the redoubtable " Rebecca" necself bad on £ fonday evening passed through where the toll-gate and toll-house at the upper part of the town used to stand , and addreBBedjtbetoH-coUectbr , demanded what he did there , and upon the man ' B attempting to answer , told him that between that time and Thursday night she and her children , to the number of 1 , 000 , snoula ; come again , and that ' lf he was there and demanded tell , she would not p > y « it , but blow his brains out The tollcollector then asked what she could want there as both the gate and ! the toll-house were down . " Rebecoft " replied thatjthere were larger houses than that should come down . The man then said , " What 1 the poorhouse ? " "I answer no questions , but you shall see , " was the answer , aud . sbe passed on , leaving the collector in a state ! of the utmost consternation . As the Union Workhouse had been threatened with an attack

      during the night , a detachment of the yeomanry , under the commands ef Sergennt-Majar Rees , was stationed in the house the . whole night ; and special constables were sent out to observe anything which might take place in the surrounding country ; a despatch was also ssnt express to Captain Mansell , at St . Cleat ' s , to call out the troops under his command , and scour the various roads between St . dear ' s and Narbeth , bo as to be enabled to -render any assistance which might be needed , and also to cut off any patties they might meet on the roads . At about half-past twelve o ' clock at night the special constables , who were out upon the watch on the Cardigan Toad , observed the "RebeccaiteB" approaching to the number of between 500 « ndl , 000 , on horseback and on foot , with " Rebecca" 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 < A tho arrival of the military , and that a portion of them were stationed at tbe Workhouse . This caused , a holt and a consultation among them . At length , however , the constable Incautiously showed himself , and tbe patty , seeing that they were watched , made off . To-day the great fair was held at Karbeth , but all passed off quietly , owing , no doubt , to the presence of the military . There wet 0 hundreds of fine cattle and horses at the fair ; but every one said they had never known bo bad a one ; no purchases were made , and , in iact ,. the prices offered will be perfectly startling to your English readers , viz , for yearlings only £ 4 were offered ; for a pair of last year's calves 25 s . each ; and for a very fine cew not £ i ; horses did not sell at all . jj inquired alto as to tie working of the Foot Law ; here , and endeavoured to procure a

      dietary , && , but was told by the clerk that he could not give it without an order from the Board The farmers and fall others , however , complain of some of its clauses bitterly , and declare that the rates are very much higher sinoe it hat been in operation . With regard to ' tbe t « lte , tbey are as oppressive here as in C&Hn&rthenebJH ); only imagine , for instance , fr « m BigeQy to Narbarth , » distance of 4 £ miles , there are three toll-gates , each charging 6 d . and 9 d . as the case may be . Above Ifarberth there are no toll-gatea ; there were nine ' on the Whitland trust , viz ., Pultnrap , 1 ; Trevaugban , i 2 ; Narberth-east , 2 ; Narbtrth Plaindealings-gate , 1 j Princes orludchttrch , 2 ; and Roberston Wathen X ., Every one of these are down , and the houses also , ; with the exception of the bouse at Ludehureh , which is only partly demolished .

      DALKEITH . A Delegate Meeting of the colliers of Mid and East Lothian was held on Saturday last , the 1 st inst ., at the house of Mr . Douglas , Gallows-hall toll , to take into consideration the propriety of joining the Miner ' s Association of Great Britain and Ireland . Thete were twenty delegates present ? and a great many more would have attended but the meeting was not i generally known . Mr . Thomas Young was called to the chair , and Mr . Wm . Darnells appointed secretary pro tern . The meeting was addressed ' at considerable length by Mri Wm . Daniells , who showed the gross injustice practiced upon colliers geaerally , exhorted them to join thbir English brethren ; as the only means by

      whioh they could better their condition , or even keep their present position . He was much applauded . A discussion then took place among the delegates on the laws of the above society , which were unanimously approved ot ; and the delegates pledgedlthemselves to use I the influence they possessed to induce ike colliers they represented tot join tho same . After a voie of , thanks had been given to the Chairman and to Mr . ; Wm . Daniella , the meeting , which , was a very harmonious one , broke up . There , will be another delegate meeting on Saturday , 15 th of July , in the Freemason ' s . Hall ,, Dalkeitk , chair taken at six o ' clock ia the evening . , : There is every prospect of the Scottish colliers shortly joining their English brethren .

      STOOKPOBT . —Repeal of the Union . —On Wednesday evening lost . Mr . Thomas Clark lectured ou this [ subject or Care Green . The audience was large , and enthusiastic , the majority being Mr . Clark'sjown countrymen , who listened with breathless attention to tho unanswerable facts adduced in favour Of the Repeal . At the doBe of the lecture a person entirely unknown asked permission to speak , which , -was readily granted . His address was nothing better than a very silly appeal to the worst passions of , Irishmen , and a denunciation of Englishmen , who , he said , would , if they had tho chance , a / nain volunteer to put Irishmen down . Mr . Clark replied and deprecated all attempts to bow dissensions amongst men , who had such an interest in being united . Tho best possible feeling was the result of Mr . Clark ' s lecture . ' i

      HOUSE OF COMMONf . —Friday ., June 30 . The amendments of the Lords to the Northampton and Peterborough Railway Bill were agreed to . On the motion of Air . Greene , Chairman of Committees , Mr . Thomas Clarke , solicitor , was called to the bar , and stated that fie had been agent for the Marquis of Townshend for the last twenty years , and that the Marquis bad approved of toaJPownahend Peerage Bill dow pas&ing through ] Ihe foffeM 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 his belief that there was more jat the bottom of the transaction than had appeared by , the evidence . Mr . S . Woitley , who introduced the Bill , assured the Noble Leid that there was no disposition to hurry farward the Bill ; and that any application he might make in Committee would be listened to in a spirit of the most perfect fairness .

      Mr . F . Berkeley ] gave notice that when the Incloeure Bill came again before the House he should move that it should not apply to any lauds within ten miles of London or within five miles of any other town . In answer to a question from Mr . Aglionby , Sir James Graham Baidja CQmmunicatien bad been made by the 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 objection ! and notices of claims , bad been prepared by the Post-dffiee , and all the necessary operations wonld be in force this day .

      TBE FACTORIES BILL . Mr . B . Hawes begged to ask the Right Hon . Baronet , the Secretary of State for the Heme Department , a question relating to tbe Factories Education Bill . It waa generally understood , that when tbe Right Hod . Gentleman struck ont the clauses relating to education , he left education precisely in the same state in the factory districts , as it was under the old law . What be wished to ask theRigijt Hon . Baronet was whether or not , in tbe clauses relating to education still standing in tbe bill , there wasjany new matter ; and whether they extended beyond that of giving to the Privy Conncil a power of appointment of inspectors ? Sir Jakes Oraham said the Honourable Gentleman

      bad been SO obliging as ] to glVe him notice of his intention to ask this question ; bnt in doing so tbe Honourable Gentleman bad paid him ( Sir James Graham ) an unmerited comphaient , | in supposing that it was in bis poorer , by any explanation he ' could give , to make the matter more intelligible than the bill itself set forth . The whole of the bill ] relative to education was comprised in four clauses , the 28 th and the 31 st inclusive . Mr . Hawes said thkt very considerable misapprehension existed out of deors , as to the tendency of tbe clauses retained ; and [ he thought it would nob only tend , to the convenience of the Hcuse , but to the public itself , if the Bight Honourable Gentleman would enter into abrief explanation of these clauses as they sow stood .

      Sir J . Graham believed that as the . law existed , and as he proposed it to stand , it 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 the children should only work six bonrs and a half each day ; and that they should not work both in the forenoon and the afternoon ; bat that the six hours and a half should either be in the forenoon or in the afternoon , and that in five days out of seven there should be education for three hours , either in the forenoon on . ia the afternoon . By the present law , n » .

      notice was taken as to the place where the education was given , or as to tbe 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 schools by which certificates were granted ; and On kceiving a report from the inspectors as to the inconvenience of the place , or as to . any objection in the method of education pursued , the Privy Council were empowered to netify to tho schoolmaster the defect so reported ; and unless within three months that defect should be remedied , tha Privy Council w . uld have tho { power of stopping tha grant made to the school . He believed he had now stated exactly the extent of the alterations proposed , without omitting anything of the least importance .

      On tho order of the day for going into Committee of supply , j Mr . Hume rose to move resolutions , importing that the pension of £ 2 l , 00 h 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 himsa ! f to any breach of public faith : bat no such breach wo ' uld follow from . the step be now proposed . He referred to tbe Acts of Parliament on which the pensions ! of the Royal Dukes depend ; and be 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 maintainance of its object as al member of the English Royal Family ; On the occasion of tbe late grant to the Princess-Attgusta of Cambridge , the popular character of tier father was insisted ion ; he would now , on tbe ground ; of unpopularity , j withhold tbe public money from the Duke of Cumberland . But his main

      objection was , that the Duke was now an independent Sovereign ; for tie thought the money of the English people ought not to be ] placed at the disposal of a foreign , power , who might employ It against their interests . He bad received ) a paper from several working men , showing tb&t this money would maintain 1 , 050 families , and that the exportation of it was the withdrawal of so much from the capital which should emp'oy British labour . 1 Tbe King of Belgium had voluntarily given up the enjoyment of his pension ; the King of Hanover ought to be in no better situation Most censurable had been | the conduct of the Duke of Cumberland in 1835 with respect to Orange lodges , which he , a Field Marshaljof England , had continued to encourage among fche troops , in disobedience to the orders « f the Horse Guard > He ought to have been , brought to a court-martial for that . The OrauRemen took a secret oath—an iliegal thing , for which poor men seeking only a rise of wages , had been tried and

      punished . ( Mt . Williams seconded tb . 9 motion . There were now three Sovereign . Princes living upon the English taxes—tbo King of Eantjver , the King of Belgium , and tha Duke of Mecklenburgh Sjrelltz . These , and tbe like burdens , were the caa&es of the present pauperism . | Sir B . Peel considered that it would be inconsistent with the good faith of Parliament to withdraw this grant . He thought that the subject of the Orange Lodges had been somewhat unfairly introduaed ; and referred to the proceedings which' took place in

      Parliament upon that subject in 1835 , including a letter from the Duke to Lord J . Russell , then read by that Noble Lord to the House , from l ^ hich , i ^ appeared thai his Royal Highness , on learning his Majesty ' s pleasure , liad taken immediate steps j toward the dissolution ot the lodge * . Parliament In 1831 when it guaranteed tbt * pension , must have ; been . well aware that the Duke of Cumberland waa likely to ' become King of Hanover for the Dukes of York and Kent were then dead , and there was UtUep * 6 babllit 7 that KlngWffllamwonldhave a son . On two former occasions when this attempt had been made by Mr . Home , Parliament had refused to interfere ; and those refusals were substantial confirmations of the scant . 1

      Mr . Wallace complained that tbe Dake bad refused to be examined before a committee of the House of Commons on the subject of the Orange Lodges . He spoke of the Duke in- terms of general disparagement

      Mr . Fereand asfeed , who had made thia raotioa ? Wby , the mamber who obtained his first seat ia Parliament ; through the influence of : the Duke , at Weymouth ! He would , leave Mr . Hume tohisconsoienca ; if he had one . The Orangemen had baen calam :. iated , and now Ireland was in the h&ndi of traitors . The Orangemen would stand by their Qaeen , when the selfisli views of their opponents would be plainly discerned . Mr . C . BtjlleR , in supporting this motion , proceeded on no groond of hostility to the King of Hanover :

      bat he construed the words of the . Legislature as intending the grant merely for the support of a member of tiwJBoyal family as such . Considering the inability of the Crown to provide for its children , be regarded the nation aa . in loco parentia to them ; but what parent would strip himself to enrich a child whbfead < Jouie into a iarga fertone from , another quarter ? It wa ? not wise to press the people too hardly upon sach a subject : they were willing to maintain their own Royal family ; but it aach gnmts . aa these were forced upon them , they would look more rigorously into the ¦ whole subject

      Sir Howard Douglas supported the claim of the King of Hanover . Captain Berkeley saw no greater beach of faith in withdrawing this pension , than in . discontinuing the title of the widows of naval officers to the pensions which they could formerly claim . Mr . Ferrand Lad said Ireland was in the hands of traitors : he himself had supposed it to be in the bands of Her Majesty ' s Ministers . The House then

      divided—For Mr . Hume ' s motion ,., 91 Against ... 197 Majority against it 105 Monday July 3 . Mr . VlLUEHS presented a petition * from the landowners , farmers , and inhabitants of Kent , agreed te at a meeting on Penenden-heath , for a repeal of the cornlaws . Mr . Ferrand presented a petition from 25 , 000 thread-work knitters of the counties of Nottingham , Derby , and Leicester , complaining of the suffering to which tbey were subjected by the effects of machinery , and gave notice that he would bring it under the notice of the House at an early day . Tbe Norfolk Island Bill was read a second time . Mr . Blbwitt gave notice that he would on Tnesday aak her Majesty ' s Ministers whether the Dake of Wellington was in the political service of the Crown , subject to Ministerial responsibility .

      The House went inte committee on the Irish Arms

      Bill . Lord Clements vindicated his motives Id resisting the progress of the Bill . It was a penal measure ; and every hour , nay , every minnte , in obstructing its pas * sage , 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 lasfci on 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'FerraU , and Mr . Pigott dwelt on the fact that , notwithstanding tha anger whioh had been manifested on thopartof tha Government and its supporters , on Thursday night , they had now substantially admitted that they had beea in the wrong , and practically confessed that tbe Bill was clumsily constructed , thereby justifying the pertinacious opposition wbick had been given to it . Mr . Roebuck objected that according to the forms of the House , the clause must be postponed to the end of the bill , as it was substantially a new one . The Chairman decided that it was hot substantially a new clause , bat an amendment ot the existing one .

      Mr . Roebuck told him that this was a point not for the decision of the Chairman , bat of the committee . Lord John Russell said it was a matter of convenience , on Which Strict rule need not be scrupulously adhered to . After considerable discussion , there wasTa division , when the clause was carried by 128 to 69 . ' The ldth clause was agreed to ; bat the 11 th clause provoked a long discussion , with several divisions .

      Mr . Morgan John O'Connell , Sir Dekham Nobeeis and other members , assailed the Attorney General for Ireland , who seemed incapable of understanding , or explaining the meaning of fl Bill , for which , on the part of the Government , he vras responsible . At last , after a tough straggle , through every sentence , and the introduction of several amendments , the 11 th clause was ordered to " stand part of tfwBilL " , 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 progtess of the Bill was suspended ; and after disposing of seme other business , the House adjourned .

      Yesterday , a very full meeting of tbe magistrates of the count ? of Pembroke was held at Haverfordw « st . - - # Colonel Owen , Vice-Lieutenant of tbe county , took the Chair , and'ttie folio-wing magistrates were present : —Messrs .

Leecb , Joho Pugh , Thomas Phelpa Martin , James James , fcc The Mayor of Haverford-west , and the tvro other borough masiBtratea al « o attended .

      The Chairman commenced by reading the Secretary of State's letter , -which stated that in consequence of information which the Government had received , directions had been given to -Colonel Love to proceed to Wales , and take the command of the troops there , aad exhorting the magistrates to a strlc ' t discharge of their dutle * , by issning warrants against all offenders , the Government hvricg placed auch troops at their disposal aa they thought sufficient to preserve the peace . It also expressed the readiness of the Government to ottet Boeh a reward aa would leid to conviction . The chairman then icqnbed the-opinion ef the meeting as to what was necessary to be done , and after some con * raltation , it was decided that the southern districts of the eounty were in such a disturbed state that it was necessary to have a reinforsement of troops , to be stationed at Narberthaa ths moat central place , and that a communication to that effect ehculd be immediately nude to tha Home Secretary .

      ThB Magistrates then issaed an order for the aa » emblingof the Yeomanry Cavalry , to be statisned at Nar berih until relieved . by ; some regular troops . Tariona reaedies were $ lao suggested , some magistrates recommending that tbe pensioners should be called oat , and placed under the command of the Adjutant of the . Militia ; and a manifesto was ordered to be drawn ont , stating that the magistrates were prepared to hear and to redress any real grievances in their power . At length one of the Magistrates said— " Gentlemen , —A number of remedies has been suggested , but I have not heard one observation as to the real evil , which is ihe poverty and iHstrt&tof Hit cota ^> y , and which das ARISEN ? R 0 M HIGH BENTS , INCREASED AND

      INCREASING TITHES , EXORBITANT POOR AND HIGHWAT BATES , AND EXCESSIVE TAXATION ! while ihe depression upon Agricultural Produce is such as to put it totally out of ihe povoerof any man to meet these demands . " This caused a general sensation ; and the magistrate continued— " I call upon every gentleman present to lay his hand upon bis heart and say if such be not tbe case . " < This matter , however , was not entered upon , and ths meeting separated . J shall offer no remark upon this , but am bound to aay that I see nothing but distress in the country . The farmers , instead of living as we were uded to see them , live and eat -with their servants , and upon such simple food as barley bread and buttermilk , flummery and potatoes .

      Begelly , jast below Narberth , is in the centre of eight 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 the Messrs . PdCOcfe , of St Bride ' s Wharf , London , I should Bay upwards of from 8 , 000 to 22 , 00 * tona of anthracite lying on ; the gronnd spoiling from the depressed state of the . trade . There are others here—the Kilgetty , Broadmore , Merton , and Heancastle Collieries —similarly situated . The proprietors most be suffering immense loss 'from tbe deterioration occasioned to this species of coal by its lying exposed to the weather ; and the proprietors . ^ deserve high praise for spiritedly continuing the works under existing difficulties ; for were they stopped , I fear that the result to this portion of the county , which is now peaceful and happy , would be lamentable .
