SCOTLAND.
A numerous meeting was held in the Caledonian Hall, Dundee, on the 13th instant, to hear speeches from Mr. Abraham Duncan of Glasgow, and Mr. Fraser of Edinburgh, on the subject of Radical Reform and the Corn.laws. The speakers advocated support of the National Petition ; and especially recommended to the masses tern. perance and peaceable behaviour, as the sure means of obtaining the rights and blessings they demanded. Mr. Duncan announced that. a new paper, to be called the True Scotsman, in which the rights of the people would be upheld, would scon be established in Edinburgh : but it was prudently determined cot to start till there were a thousand subscribers and a quarter's payment received from each.
On the following Thursday, the same party addressed a numerous meeting in Aberdeen, to the sonic effect. The paper was again adver- tised.
We surmise from an article in the Perth Chronicle of the `2.3(1, re- ceived this morning, that some of Mr. Arthur Kinnaird's Whig votes have given considerable dissatisfaction to the party which elected him.
