JHirFbongb the morning WM very
ratay, the expectation of Mr. Cob

creat uutnbers of persons from di
fferent parts of Uie couutry* The
local authorities were on the aiert,
: - and military smngeaienta were made .
I which were as fortuidahlt* as those otd

?>e learned from the following letter
from the Boroughreeves and Consta
bles of Manchester and Salford, to
Mr. Cobbett, at Irlam :
Manchester , Nov. ?8, 1819.
Sir-*~Having reason to believe
that your introduction into the town
of Manchester, "on Monday, the
$9th ifist. is intended to be public,
and to he accompanied by an unusu
al procession and Multitude of peo
ple, as wfltl strangers as inhabitants ;
we, the undersigned, being Bo
roughreeves and Constables of the
t>eg to inform you, that we consider
such an assemblage of the great mass
of the population of this district, in
the present situation of the country,
as necessarily attended witb consid
erable danger to the public peace : ?
We do therefore caution jou against
making any public entry into the
town - of Manchester ; and if you
adopt any other proceedings, where
by the public peace may lie. broken
or endangered, we shafll fe# it our
indispensable duty imujfcH%tely to
interfere. i "

We are, sir, yoar obedient ser
vants, (Signed by the Boroughreeves
and Constables of Manchester and
Salford.)

Cobbett, immediately after writ*
iug his reply, left lrlam, for London,
in a post-chaise, accompanied by his
two sons.

H|| |epl| <T theTBoroughrefves
and Constables was as follows :?*?
" Irlam, November ?9, 1819.
Gentlemen? I fit had come from
any Other ptrsotis in ibis vv oriel, th<
notification which 1 have just reoei-/
ved from yon would have surprised
me. Coming froroyou it excites no
surprise, nor any sort of feeling to
wards yoiv which was not before en* "
tertaitied by every jpd man, in every .
part o t the world where your deeds
and character 4ave been heard ot "
' f But, Gentlemen, is it ffcaft.v come -
to this, that a man, upon returning to
his country* or apon moving from
one part of England to anothef, iej
to be atopp^dWhis way by threats
of irtferfcrene* {on the part of officers
appointed to keep the peace, )lest the
coaco^n^ of people, which his mars
pre* may draw together, should
produce danger of a breach of die
puhHr peace ? A It is really come to
this fc m this the state of England?
la ttqa (he Uuc? Is tbia one or the ef
fectqofthat apstem, which, we are
tpkl, is bo excellent, Ibrt it feqoirei
uu reform ? The laws of Eojluml
aecuro to m theright of iocomotioe;
i bat is to aajr the right of moving our
bodies from one place to another. I
Now, if your BotfficatSil be MflM
thing more than ? mere empty pit
ting forth of wards, it pwaumea that
jua have a right to prevent me from
enjoying this liberty of looo* motion.
For you toll we yon shall interfere*
if I persist in my intention of makinc
it fwUk entry into your town ? and
*lso ! we know too well what yon
mean by i*kttfei*nce 1 And whit*
ii(? yon mean by puUue fiitry ? what
do you mean, I say, by public entry?
How am I to make any othetr than
a public entry, it I enter it all ? Like
othfr persons, my intention must bave
Ven to enter your town in a carriage,
or on horseback, or on foot. Are
not these the ways in which all
other persons enter ? And have not
i Uri^ntto enter as other persons do?
Jtuijcr, tlicrelorc, you must meax* to
forbid me to enter 'hi all, or you
must mean that I shall move like (he
women of < be Seraglio, of the Dey
of Allien, abut up in a box, with
large air hole* to it ? or rUle upcfti a
horse, my ' body . ami head being
covered over with a apecietf of tub.
This is the $tate; is it, to which the;
system has brought ooce free auti'
happy England ?
u To wliat a pitch mutt men have
arrived, when they could set down
and look one another in the face,
while they wrote aud signed a pa
per, such as that you sent me !
This paper was addressed to* man
having no power and no inclination
to disturb the public peace ; a man,
who, with a knowledge of the receut
events duly impressed upon bis
mind, bad taken die precaution to
beseech the people, not to mix np a
reception of -him with even an allu
sion to those events. It appears
manifest that the public peace could
net have been endangered from mv
entrance into Manchester. 11 nf {Q
see snrh multitude of people afi6em
bled together . to shew their respect
for me, appears to have been more
, than you could endure. We read
accounts of the Prince of Saxe Co
bourg, the Marquis of Anglesea,
the Duke of Wellington, and other
great personages, moving ltere and
there amidst public plaudits. In
finite pains, at any rate, are taken
to make us believe that this is the
I case. What right, therefore, iinVe
yoo to make any attempt, eitf,Pr (yu
rectly or indirectly, to prevent the
people from bestowing their applause
upon me, in person? Is not my
right to move from place to place, n*
perfect as that of any of the tlire*
men that I have just meutioned ! ! !
Aye, but then, the assemblages that
they cause are so small f f
" Suppose I were at this moment
living at an inn in Manchester* It
Is pretty clear, I believe, that an as
semblage of persons would take
place at any time that I chose to
Nvalk out to the spot where the dread
ful scenes *6th of August
were exhibited W hat, then, would
you expel me your town, or com
pel me to keep lfc^self fihut Op in a
room? And if the people presumed
to come to she* sin? marks of their
respect,' Would *you visit t)iem with
' your awful interference / Gentle men,
we shall live to see the dav, and |
that day is, I believe, not instant,
when I shall be able to visit the ex-' -
cellent people of ' Mancheeter and its '
neighborhood, without your daring 1
to step in between us with your ^
threats of interference*
a Let me call on you tQ think a lit
tle on the figw^eyoo new make fat the},
world. Here I ato, 40 miles froml
Manchester ; there a*e the people <
V bom you call an unusual multitude,
ready to receive me, and to bestow
on nte all possible marks of respect ;
and there are yon, sending the
threats of interference, and prepar- 1
ing all sort* of means for making
that interference effectual, in order
to intercept a verbal expression of
pfcpMar approbation, intended, to
be bestoweq upon a man, destitute
of every species of means of ob
taining that approbation, other than
the means naturally arising from bis
integrity and his talents, his well
known love fhr hi# country, and his
well known zeal in her cause, dur
I ing the whole course of his life, un
f<?ler allctrcomstances, whether afiroad
or at home, whether is prosperity or
adversity*
u Thus the parties stand before
the world, 1 di<dain to t^ll yon
what my intentions are ; whether f
intend to entqfManchester or not.
1 have nwdeTna comment open
your communication, in order that
the nature of yon? conduct may he
the better understood, and even in
doing this, I have condescended toj
bestow on you too great an honour.

Tfcd Jfeite.? - Mr. Noah, editor of I
the New-York National Advocate, I
has addressed a memorial to the le- I
gislature, praying that the state I
would authorize the sale of Grand I
Island hi the Niagara river, to him. I
for the purpose of building a city I
thereon, aim inviting a community ]
of Jewish emigrants to that piece* J
The memorial cannot fail to excite I
interest, because it ethhraces an ob- I
iect which appears to us very feasi- 1
hie ; and if Mr. Noah does not de- I
ceive himself, as to the dis- osition I
of the Jews io emigrate to this coun- I
try, his- prtnect may be conaiderff} ft
as a very splendid <A Indeed we I
have often wondereuwby the Jews 1
do not emigrate more frequently to I
the ?United! States ; why they should I
suffer from the intolerant* of other I
Sovernments, when an asylum to |
csirable can be found In this coun- 1
try. It must aris$ from their total I
un acquaintance with our laws and I
institutions, and this memorial will 1
no doubt lead to some inquiry.-- I
There is no small discernment evin- I
ced in this location. Grand Island I
is bounded on the north by Lake I
Ontario ; on the south by Lake Brie ; I
on the *jest by Upper Canada ; and I
on the by the state of N. York, I
and lies near the centra in Niagara I
river ? the current, however, is I
Rotfiewhat rapid. It mfcy contain I
80,000 acres. From the vicinity of
those great bodies of water, (he ah
n? winter derives a decree of warmth ;
and the same cause also tempers ami
refreshes the heat of summer.^
Melons, peaches, nectarines, and
other delicate fVuits, grow in the
neighborhood ? ami its position is ex
cellent for a city. We know not
whether the state would sell that
tslanA It its of no use, and is the
Asylum of gypsies and wanderers,
who are destroying the timber. If,
however, fhey should deem it expe
dient to sell, it then will be no ot>
jectioa to sell it to Mr* Noah for tby
Aject which he contemplates; 1k>
cause, iit the po>sesNiog of any oilier
individual, and fur other Mirposes,
the state cannot realize those benefits
w hich a settlement of Jews will pro
duce. The property of foreign Jens,
principally consists of money and
merchandize, which can be easily
removed to any country ; aud if a
few* of their great bankers would
I tynigrate to this state, and circulate
alt% millions, they would secure a
good profit, aud give a spur to inter
| nal commerce. Besides, after ail
said or w rote on this subject, this is
the most preferable country fu: the
Jews 5 ? Here they cau have their
Jerusalem, without fearing the le
gions of Titus; here they cau erect
their temple, without dreadii^g tho
torches of enrage d fcoldieis; here
they can lay their heads on their pil
low, at night, without fear c.f mobs,
of bigotrv and persecution ; her<>
they can become citizens ? attached
to tho soil ? defending the laws ?
and interested in the protection of
liberty : ? and who knows but divine
Providence, . w ho i a tb litis day
protected the childri# of Israel as a
nation, may finally lead them to this
jountry ; may repeat in the words of
the prophets ? "1 will be as (lie dew
unto Israel: he shall grow as the
lily, and cast forth his roots as Le
banon. His branches shall spread,
aud his beauty shall he as the olive
tree, and his smell as Lebanon."
