~r use to petition—while the public possess, as they do, much less power over their Representatives than they ought to have, they still have the power of bearding them—of shaming them by facing them boldly and saying, " on such a question you voted is violation of your word, your honour, and our interests," and to the most impudent vagabond among them the knowledge of this certainty is a 'palling —Mr. Wodehouse will not forget Mr. Palmer's observations to him at the late Norfolk County meeting! STOCK ExettANGE, SATURDAY.—The market looks rather heavy this morning, owing to the dif ferent opinions in regard to the affairs of Turkey ; by many it is imagined the new Russian Loan will firnish the means to Alexander to commence hosti lities. By letters received this morning from Mar seilles, they have accounts there from Smyrna to the Q9llt April, stating that all was quiet, and that the Captain Pacha remained before Scio with the fleet. Consols left off at 791 Money, and 80h for the Account. (FOREIGN MARKETS.) A great demand still prevails for the new Chilian Bonds, and a great deal of business has been done in the above Stock this morning. The new Russian Loan appears heavy, and very little has been done. Mr. Rothschild has given notice this morning, that he will advance money to the holders of his Certifi cates on the new Prussian Stock at 5 per cent. Re port says, that a large amount of the above Stock has been purchased at Paris, and that a quantity of it is also going to Holland. This may account for very little of it coming into the market. A mail from Constantinople has arrived, with letters from that city to the 26th of April. They describe a proceeding, as regards the internal go vernment of the northern Turkish provinces, of a very curious nature, and important also, from its probable tendency to assist in reconciling the differ ences with Russia. It is well known that one of the difficulties in the way of adjustment has been, supposing the Turkish troops to be withdrawn from Walachia aid Moldavia, to whom the future go vernment of those provinces should be confided.— Turkey, in the existing state of public feeling towards the unfortunate Greeks, objected to the re-appointment of the Hospodars ; and Rt,ssia, in reference to the letter or the spirit of all the recent treaties, could not listen to any proposition for be stowing that trust on Turkish Governors. %Vile titer prompted or not by either of the principles in the discussions now carrying on, is not known ; but it appears by the present letters, that the chief in habitants of Jassy and Bucharest had formed them selves iuto a deputation to Constantinople, and have presented a memorial to the Turkish Government, soliciting, as the most eligible mode of alleviating the horrors of the state of anarchy into which they had fallen, the appointment of a provisional admi nistration, consisting of natives of Walachia and Moldavia, from which Turks and Greeks were equally to be excluded, and to whom the Govern ment should be specially confided until the final. arrangement of the difkrences with Russia. The Divan, it is added, has listened favourably to this representation. Eighteen persons are nominated to conduct the affairs of the provinces above-named; and as a security for their good conduct, eight per. suns of equal rank, and forming part of the depu tation to Constantinople, are to be retained as hos tages. In consequence of this arrangement, the Porte had issued orders for the evacuation of Wal ladtia and Moldavia by their troops; and this order it is said, was already in part fulfilled. Little doubt was entertained by the merchants at Constan tinople, that the new measures of the Turkish Go vernment would lead to peace. There was a meeting on Friday of the importers of Barilla, who hold about 6000 tons of this article, in consequence of the intended reduction in the duty on salt, and which must be a total loss to them, unless the import duty be repealed. As it has been im ported under the tkith of existing laws, it is just that the duty on• the quantity now in the country should be returned to the proprietors , but how far the duty on the future importations should be re pealed, is questionable. The meeting ap 'ointed respectable deputation to lay their complakts before the Minister of Finance. At Swindon market, on Monday last, a respecta ble farmer actually sold a sack of wheat to a grocer for a pound of tea, value 7s. After the bargain had been agreed cm, the dealer, conceiving he had the worst of it, wanted to run ; but the farmer in sisted on the tea, and the tea he had. r ..........vi THE NATIONAL REGISTER nit; UNITARIAN FUND. -......- The Anti yof the Unitarian Ford was celebrated on Wednesday last In the morning a aern.ot was preached at the Chapel in Parliament• court, and in the evening a numerous and highly respectable company, consisting u: nearly 300 gen- ; tletuen, dined together at the London Tavern. The dinner was passable—the wine, as usual on such occasions, wan execrably bad—a policy we can by no means enter into —in the present instance the ticket included but a pint of wine—very few gen tlemen had more, and many did not even drink their allowance, so that besides injuring the credit of the honse iN Juluro, an absence of profit was sustained. A Mr. Hstvtoon.,of St. I rep, Hantingdonshire, took the chair, and after Non Nolsis Dimino Le gave " The King," after which he introduced at extreme length the usual toast of " Civil and relijous liberty all over the world." This was followed by " The Unitarian Fund ;" after which Mr. Christie, the 'Treasurer, read a statement of the accounts, and a long list of donations (the latter of which du ties re , had to perform several times daring the evening), and the finance', appeared to give great pleasure to those moat com petent to form a correct judgment of them. Mr. FRED, in the course of an interesting speech, alluded to a Latin Epistle, lately received try the Society train a mem ber of the Unitarian Church of Transylvania, which is nu merous and prosperous. The Chairman then gave, " Dr. Murrell, and thanks to him for his excellent sermon." This toast was, we thought, rather inappropriately introduced, by the Chairman's preaching for nearly twenty minutes on the doctrine of atonement, from which we were inclined to infer that the Doctor owed an atone ment to the congregation of the morning, for having wasted their time—this inference was however, we are convinced, iu correet, for Dr. MoR ELL rose, and in • fluent and most pleasantly deli vered speech, mule hix acknowledgment to the company. He was grateful, he amid, for the manner in which his health had been drank—be valued most highly the approhation of the Unitarian assembly he had the honour to eddresa—he did not mean to detain them by a long speech, bet there were some points to which he wished to advert. It had been said that the Unitarians denied the divinity of the Christian religion, and in this charge the bigot sod unbeliever were united. When an Atheist was prosecuted, it was natural that he should endeavour to attach himself to some body of people, hat ohs the Church man, protected by the bulwarks of the law, should join so false, so uncandid a cry, he could not suppose —in no We of people was found a more studious attention to the duties of religion— in none a more anxious care of the esluca'ion of their children; the fact, and the great crime was, that the Unitarians refused to acknowledge as the heed of their Church %hurter should succeed to th.s Crown, however hail lie might be—he alluded, he said, perhaps to Henry the Eighth—perhaps to the Hero of the 29th of May. In answer to the charge of their disbelief in Christ, he need only refer to the present meeting—could it be supposed that so large a body of so respectable men would meet there to profess Christianity, if they did not feel it ? They had hen spoken of as Sectarians—if Sectarianism meant an open avowal of their views, a manly absence of concealment of their wishes, then, like the primitive Christians, they might glory in being called Sectarians--the Unitarians Fund promised to enable them to aid the weak, and sustain the drooping.—He begged to apologize for having so Ling occupied their attention, and concluded by again thankinetnent for the compliment paid to him. The Chairman then proposed " Mr. Wright, and oar other Missionaries ;" but not prolitting by what appeared to us a most uncourteous attempt on the part of the conyany. prior to the preceding toast, to curtail him of what he seemed to consider as his fair right, by continued applause while he was speaking, SO that scarcely a word was heard—the worthy Chairman again essayed a sermon, in which, at the commencement, he stated, that lie became an Unitarian 40 years ago, and appeared to go into a history of all be had read, or felt, Jr experienced, during that tune. The "ignorant Impatience" kits Lord Lon donderry world call it) of the company, however, rendered him totally inaudible, and we thought the Chairman received this proof of their want of taste rather iu dudgeon. Mr. WittGitr returned thanks, and stated the increasing success which he had met with during a recent journey on his Missionary duty. " Mr. Christie, the Treasurer," who returned thanks, and announced fresh subscriptions. " Mr. William Smith, and the New Marriage Act." Mr. FREND rose, and said, that it was equally a disgrace to the Established Church to have their form profaned by those who dissented from it, as it was irksome to those who were forced to submit to it. Mr. EDWARD TAYLOR, of Norwich, said, that having been Sheriff at the time be had the honour of returning Mr. Smith at the last election, and lie begged to return thanks for him. The constant attachment lie had sliewn to liberty, and his unwearied exertions for the abolition of the Slave 'trade, demanded the thanks of every liberal man, Mr. Smith had generally, if not always, full - Wed the expectations of his constituents—he was sometimes wavering in his conduct, but Mr. Taylor believed, nevertheless, a true friend to liberty, and therefore he should still have Mr. Taylor's support. The Chairman then gave, " J. T. Rail, Esq." and " Mr. 14oriihy, the Deputy Treasurer," who each returned thanks.— lie afterwards annnonnced, " The Secretary, the Rev. W. J. Fon." The moment this bast was announced. the room rung with applause* loud and long continued, and witch clearly bespoke the anxious interest she company felt fur the ream ery of their valued Pastor. Mr. Itur r returned thinks for Lis esteemed and absent friend, and in the course of his speech he animadverted with great severity no the conduct of the Common Sergeant on the late trial of " The Man Unknown." In proposing the health of " Mr. William Freed," (who re turned thanks, ) the Chairman said, he had come up to town on purpose to preside there that day, and that probably it was the last time he should have that honour—an anticipation the cow pany appeared most sincerely to reciprocate. The Chairman then gave, " Mr. Richard Taylor and the Committee," Upon whi.k Mr. Richard Taylor rose to return thanks, in doing which he most ably defended the Common Sergeant from the censure cast upon him by Mr. Hutt, on the ground that a Judge is bound to act according to the existing law, however objectionable ; and that he had given the prisoner a fair trial, particularly by not allowing his defence to be iuterrnpted, and a more lenient sentence than others who were sidieritig on the same account. He regretted that some worthy men were not for admitting such an extensive liberty of discussion as be con tended for, hut their honesty was not on that account to be questioned ; and he thought that those Christians who disap proved of defending Christianity lay persecution had been guilty of a cowardly neiklect of duty in not coming forward in a body to protest against it ; especially as at the present crisis of the world, wheu education and inquiry hare talieu so widelrone PI--.. 173 both in this country and abroad, and amongst all classes o men, whatever presented christianity as an engine of (oppres sion, persecution; or tyranny, or as a subject that could not bear full investigation, would be likely to prejudice mankind against it, and detach them from it. We regret that the ap proach of darkness presented our taking notes of Mr. Tat lira speech, which we consider as decidedly the best that was de delivered during the evening. When we left the room nearly half the company were re mainin4, but there was during the afternoon a degree of dull ness which night did not appear to decrease. We heartily rejoice in the apparent determination to support the annual meeting of the Unitarians—we du nut belong to their church—we differ from them on many rsavistird pAnts, but we are convinced that any thing that creates additional activity in any one classy on the subject of religion, does ser a ice to the cause of the religious community at large—sad van wish that every denomination would institute atroit trsary meetings, because by those means we are sure man•. who have hitherto nev er thought upon the subject, would be in duced to make that most important of all inquiries, '• That must 1 do to be saved."

COUNTY oar.—The Sheriff of Lancashire having determined to hold his Court he adjournment at Man chester for the Hundred or Salford, in addition to holding it at Preston, it opened for the first time on Thursday last. Ashworth, the Barrister, of Oldham inquest notoriety. who. with two other barristers, bad entered the Court alter the fi tss trial was over, rose and addressed the Court, and ea the part of the bar, claimed the exclusive relit to conduct the e IFt to the exclusion of the attorneys, This claim was resi4te.i b• the attorneys, one of whom, Mr. Buck, " thought it woubt he quite as decent, under the circtonstances, if the learned Counsel had declined attending until their set-ekes had been requested. The Prelim, Chronicle observes on this We understand the cases in the County Court have from time tin metnorial been conducted by the attorneys, without claim o f precedence eler having been set up by the bar ; and it ww:!ti be a matter of deep regret to ua if the claim now brought f.,r ward should succeed. The expences of law proceedinzs nre heavy enough, without bring encumbered with additional fees to counsel. This is, however, like many of the cases that daily occur in life. When a public benefit is intended, some pole interest in set up to prevent it, and the general good is sneti r tired to individual profit. The County Court wan adjourned to Manchester purposely to spare expenses to the public, anal if any thing should occur to deprive the suitors of the benefit in tended, we shall certainly regret it much.
