After the letter of Lord Anglesea to Mr. Kertland, he cannot be a party to any measure which would stain his fair fame with the taint of falsehood.

This is the state of things mined upon an arrangement that will THE Letter to the LABOURERS OF ENGLAND, which is in another part of this Register, will form the matter for the 7th NUMBER of the Two-PENNY TRASH, which Number is published this day (1st January, 1831), price 2d, with the usual allowance to booksellers, and sold at my shop for ready money, at IIs. a hundred to those who take three hundred or more at once. This is hardly paying for the paper and print; but, as they are intended for the working people, and as the parsons want to enlighten the people, here is the light for them. Every landlord, farmer, and shopkeeper, must see how useful this little publication must be, how directly it tends to make the people abstain from all violence, by pointing out to them a legal and just means of relief; every man of sense must see this; and here he sees that 11s. will enable him to quiet and enlighten a whole district. I bring this work into the Register, as it goes on, as well as the TRASH. These monthly numbers cannot go through the post-office for want of the stump. They, therefore, more slowly; and I want them to go over the country as fast as horses' legs can carry them. I want them to fly to Paris and to New York, as well as to Edinburgh and Dublin; and I cannot make them do this, unless I put them into the Register. I shall, therefore, still publish them in Numbers, to go into a book; but I shall publish them in the Register at the same time; so that the readers of the Register will have them, as well as the matter of the Register, which, for that purpose, must raise to 1s. 2d., making the price and the deduction to newsmen twice as much as to a rascally and stupid broad sheet. The Trash will be published in the Register on the FIRST of every month, and a Number of the History on the FIFTEENTH of every month; and thus they will all three fly on the wings of the post-office, and produce, at once, their intended, or, at least, their natural impression. I shall be told, that this is putting the Register still further out of the reach of the poor. It has been out of their reach ever since 1817; and what beasts must those be, who ascribe the discontents of the Labourers, to whom Benett and his comrades allowed a gallon loaf a week and less than a halfpenny a day for all their pay, to this publication! The readers of the Register will now have to pay the newsmen Ss. 4d. a year in addition, but, for this they will have (and postage free too) 12 numbers of the History of George IV., and 12 gumbers of the Trash. This is my arrangement, and according to this arrangement I shall publish next week. The number 4 of the History will appear in the Register of the 15th instant, and it will relate to the trick by which PERCEVAL kept out the WHIGS in 1811. It is at this very moment that the transactions of the Regency and reign of George IV., ought to be brought under the eye of the public. NAISH, F., Shepton-Mallet, Somerset, clothier.

I wrote this Work professedly for the use of the Labouring and Middling Classes of the English Nation; and I knew that the lively and pleasing manner of the writing would cause it to have many readers, and that thus its substance would get handed to those who could not read. I made myself acquainted with the best and simplest mode of making Beer and Bread, and these I made it as plain as, I believe, words could make it. It was necessary, further, to treat of the keeping of Cows, Pigs, Bees, and Poultry, matters which I understood as well as any body could, and in all their details; and I think it impossible for any one to read the Book without learning something of utility in the management of a Family.

Of this Work, from first to last, Sixty Thousand Copies have been sold; and I verily believe that it has done more to produce real education, as far as correct writing and speaking go, than any book that ever was published. I have received from the year 1820, to the present time, continual thanks, by word of mouth and by letter, from young men, and even from old men, for this work, who have said, that, though many of them had been at the University, they never rightly understood Grammar till they studied this work. I have often given the Reviewers a lash for suffering this Work to pass them unreviewed; but I have recently discovered that the newly-published EDINBURGH ENCYCLOPEDIA says of it, that, "for all com mon purposes, it is the best Treatise we possess, and that it is entitled to super"sede all the popular, and many of the "scientific, productions on the subject of our language," The price of this book is 3s. in boards.
