POLITICAL AFFAIRS IN SEPTEMBER. 
——— 
GREAT BRITAIN. 
4 hee past month has been as re- 
markable in the British islands 
for its political inactivity, as it has 
been memorable all over Europe for 
the heat and splendor of the weather, 
and for the abundance and success of 
the haryest. The King went to Scot- 
land, and returned: what he did there 
was even beneath common-place, and 
served only to render conspicuous the 
base spirit of certain time-serving 
sycophants. A puny question arose 
in England in regard to the person 
who was to fill the office of Lord Cas- 
tlereagh, and, such is the present pau- 
city of public character, that it has 
devolved on Mr. George Canning, al- 
though that gentleman had prepared 
to embark for India, to occupy the 
station of the illustrious Marquis of 
Hastings. We have no good opinion 
of the public principles of Mr. Can- 
ning, yet neither his talents nor his in- 
dustry will enable him to do half the 
mischief of his predecessor. The same 
yaucity of talents has led to the dis- 
patch of Wellington to the Congress 
of the great and small legitimates at 
Verona, where much is expected to be 
plotted against the rights, liberties, 
and peace, of certain nations. 
The Appendix to the House of Com- 
mons Report, on the Poor Rate Re- 
turns, states the following as the sums 
of money “expended for the relief of 
the poor,” since 1750, in England 
and Wales. It appears, that owing to 
the defective state of the Poor Laws, 
nearly one million and a half out of the 
sum levied is spent in litigation, &c. in- 
stead of benefiting the poor:
