... WE very much regret, and altogether condemn, the riotous proceedings which took place at the recent Pro-corn-law meeting at Stafford. To interrupt a meeting, even by cJamcur, is contrary alike to jus- tice and to common sense, and is, what every man who pretends to be a rational being, ought to be ashamed of; but to use violence, is to be guilty of tyranny, to do great damage to the cause of ...

... A strong effort will be made in the coming Session of Parlta. ment to obtain a repeal of the tax on adveitisements. Looked at from any point of view, this tax is perhaps the pettiest and most mischievous on the Chancellor's list. Its advantage as a source of revenue bears no tolerable proportion to its disadvan- tages in other respects. About three o'clock on Saturday morning last a savage en- ...

... ECONOMY IN FARM MANAGEMENT. At a moment when agricultural depression is the pre^np topic among our friends of the soil, we think the few observations which follow, will be read with much attent It is objected to yourself and others, who urge the at,, in of what is called high farming, as a resource whereby outh the reduced prices of farm produce, that the capital is to carry out a better ...

... [ADVERTISEMENT.] Case of peculiar HanMsip. Monmouih Gaol, Dec. 10th, 1819. To the Editor of the Monmouthshire Merlin. SIR,-I believe it may be said, with perfect truth, that a case of sterling merit, on the part of those suffering under dark cir- ^umsiances of wrong and oppression, was never fairly brought before the people o( Newport, without exciting their sympathy, causing their ...

... THE reasons assigned by the woithy chairman of our Quarter Sessions, for holding them mote fre- quently, appear to us quite cogent. The first consideration is that untried persons should be detained for as short a time as possible. It is an old principle of British law, that justice should not be delayed and it is a gtievous hard- ship for an innocent man to be in pti*on. The question of ...
