Boroughs in Wales which return one Member each. To most of these boroughs other places are united, which share in the election of the members. The population of the principal boroughs only is given, with the Number of number of voters in the district. Two of these boroughs, Merthyr Tydvil and Swansea, have been added by the reform act. tion. 700 Haverfordwest, Pembroke, Boroughs.

But the right of voting for members has heretofore been extremely limited. The number of freeholders, or voters, in 1825, was 3066, as stated in the following statistical table. The number in 1811 was only 2429. In 1796, the number of real voters in the Scottish counties was estimated at 1390. In two counties, there were only three real voters in each, and in seven not more than ten. The nominal and fictitious voters were said to amount to 1202. The number of persons who actually voted at the elections of the boroughs was very inconsiderable, consisting, in general, of the magistrates and town council, amount ing to only twenty in each burgh, or, in all the sixty-six burghs, to 1320. By the late reform act, five members are added to the representation of Scotland; and the representation is now distributed as follows: To the thirty-three counties, twenty-eight members; to Edinburgh and Glasgow, two each; to Aberdeen, Dundee, Greenock, Leith and Paisley, one each; and to thirteen districts of bor oughs, one each; total, fifty. The right of voting is also placed on the same footing as in England. -See, further, the Extraordinary Black Book (2d ed., 1832), and Key to both Houses of Parliament (1 vol., 8vo., 1832). -The old parliament has just been dissolved, and the writs for new elections issued; but the results are yet unknown to us. But we subjoin, in a note, a document which will show our readers what is understood by reform, by at least some of the English reformers.* It is from an address of the national political union in England to the electors of the United Kingdom, on "The pledges that candidates should be required to give seem to be, 1. Parliamentary reform. This includes, first, shortening the duration of parliaments; second, voting by ballot. If the whole nation were divided into electoral districts, and the votes taken by ballot, parliament could not be too short, nor the right of voting too extensive. At present, the duration of parliament should be limited to three years.-2. Law reform. This includes a thorough revision of all lawscommon, statute, civil, criminal, ecclesiastical, local, parliamentary and municipal; the abolition of all arbitrary jurisdictions; the abridgment, as much as may be possible, of vexation, delay and expense; the detection of crimes, and the certainty of speedy punishment; abolition of barbarous and cruel punishments; and the adoption of such punishments only as are commensurate with offences.-3. Financial reform. This includes reduction of taxes to the greatest possible extent; reduction of all over-paid salaries and pensions, as well as payment of every kind, from the highest office in the state to the lowest ; the total abolition of all sinecures, all useless offices, and all unearned pensions. It is advisable that indirect taxes, and especially those which press heaviest on trade, manufactures, commerce, and the comforts of the people, should be repealed in prefer ence to direct taxes. Had there been none but direct taxes, the publie never would have submitted to be taxed to one half the amount they are at present taxed.—4. Trade reform. This includes the pledges to be required from candidates for parliament. PATTERSON, William, a governor of New Jersey, and one of the associate judges of the supreme court of the U. States, was born in that state, and graduated in its college in 1763. In 1787, he was a member of the convention which framed the constitution of the U. States, and affixed his name to that instrument. In 1789, when the new government commenced its operations, he was a member the abolition of all monopolies, and more espe cially the corn law" monopoly; the tree admin sion of all sorts of produce for manufacturers and indeed, of free trade in every respect, that the greater number may no longer be compe'er to purchase any thing at an advanced price, that the profits of a very small comparative number mar be unduly increased.-5.
