It shall &ppear on an early day. The insertion of several communications and articles of news is necessarily delayed, on account of the length and importance of our Parliamentary Report. The case of East Retford was brought before the House last night by Mr. NICHOLSON CA L ERT, who finished a, short speech—fraught with no particular argument nor purity—by moving for leave to bring in a Bill, which was shaped only in general terms, to prevent bribery and corruption in the Borough of East Retford. An amend ment to this motion was moved by Mr. TENN irsox, hav ing for its object to transfer the elective franchise from East Retford to the town of Birmingham. Mr. TENN Y SON 'S amendment was argumentatively supported by Lord Howlcx, Mr. O'CowNELL, Lord NORMAN BY, and Mr. HT/SKIS/lON but when we say argumentatively, let it not be supposed that we hold up to the country the speeches of these four Members as the honest declara tions of unexceptionable and pure Reformers. The Ho nourable and Learned Member for Clare is indeed such ; but he was the only unsuspicious speaker among them. As for Mr. Hosxtssox, his vast general in formation, and high capabilities as a Statesman, will always procure—for any speech which he may make in that place—an attentive hearing : but the recollection of his facile morality will act in the same ratio, to do away with all public reliance on any profession of his. After all, this business of East Retford—which is called by a Ministerial Contemporary " the interesting ease of East Retford," and is made subservient by that un principled writer to a premeditated panegyric on Mr. PEEL—is nothing more than a sham fight between the Corruptionists on both sides of the House, to gull and deceive the people. It is a game played for effect—an exhibition of political mountebanks—too gross in the management of its machinery, for even children not to detect the working of its wires and springs. The truth is, that there is no honest desire in the House of Commons—taking it as a Body .—to reform itself ; and it is glad to avail itself of such a precious occasion as East Retford, to affect an in- Oignancy against corruption and venality, which all the world knows it does not feel—but by which outward affectation it hopes to lull the rising excitement, and allay the jealousies of the people, now clamouring for a general Reform. As to East Retford—which Honour able Representatives of similar boles have agreed among tLemselves to wake the :cape-goat of its abominable class—it is to be punished, as Lord How tc K very quaintly remarked, not for its corruption, but for the clumsiness with which its Venalities were conducted. But East Retford is a matter no longer of the smallest moment, when the extirpation of the whole Borough-system— root and branch—is not only certain, but imminent. It will be perceived, that the CHsecetion of the EXCHEQUER, moving last night for the House to resolve itself into a Committee of Supply, the Marquis Of BLAN D PORT) again decidedly resisted that proceeding. This old-fashioned return to one of our best constitutional usages has created a great outcry among Ministers and their adherents, and the CHANCELLOR of the Exen 413sa—in the first access of his stupefaction on Tues day night—expressed his opinion that the Noble LOAD'S proceeding was calculated to produce " a not very favour able effect on the public generally." If, however, we are to judge of the effect produced, by the votes of thanks, and congratulatory resolutions, which have been passed, and are now passing, in honour of the Noble MARQUIS iD various parts of the country, it will appear that Mr. Go t! L Bumf has been reckoning without his host. But, perhaps, when the Right Honourable Gentleman spoke of the " public generally," be intended by that designation only the traders in Government Securities, Jews, Jobbers, and all that class who are interested with his Majesty's Midisters in upholding the present system of iliscretio nary spoliation, to which it is so natural that they should cling, 'till the bum to which they are all clinging— broken by their unholy weight—precipitate the miscal culating knaves headlong. Whither this description of persons was the " public" to which Mr. GOUL -1147RN adverted, we do not presume to determine : certain, however, it is, that the British Public—i. e. all the intelligent, and influential, and respectable classes, which constitute not less morally than nu merically, the PEOPLE Or ENGLAND—are loud in their enthusiastic expressions of admiration and satisfaction, at the course pursued by the Noble M aRQC 11. Lord BLANHFORD—true to the :ape cadendo principle, which he seems to have adopted as a rule of conduct—divided the House again last night against the motion of the CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER, and was supported by a minority of nine against one hundred minis terial votes ! Does not this alone show, that we are not going to reform the system before it is time ? We can state on authority, that the Marquis of B LA N D FORD would have persisted last night in moving adjourn ment after adjournment, had not the Noble LORD re ceived an assurance from one of the Ministers that no money was to be voted that night. This opposition of the Noble MARQUIS has also gained for the country the great and double advantage of an arrangement, that henceforward the public money is never more to be voted away after twelve o'clock at night. In our frequent references to the Portuguese question, we' have more than once alluded to the policy of the Washington Cabinet towards the Usurper, and freely confessed ourselves at a loss to conceive on what prin ciple of dignity, law, or justice, MIGUEL could be re cognised by a power whose ships had been seized and subjects imprisoned by his of f icers and agents. Having been eye-witnesses of the outrage committed on the crew of the Galatea, the American ship so wantonly seized by ROSA , the Miguelite admiral, we now declare it as our firm conviction, that it would not be tolerated by the most contemptible Government in Europe. This being our opinion, we are farther induced to add, that not a single valid argument has been yet advanced to justify the inexplicable policy of the President. It is easy to say that Alm t; et. is beneath the resentment of the North American Government, but reason, usage, and common sense, will bear us out in asserting, that the protection which is due to the plundered merchants and insulted subjects of the Union, called loudly for redress. Until this was afforded, we maintain that the example shown by the cabinet of Washington, in not merely putting up with the grossest insults, but entering into friendly re lations with the despot, is highly reprehensible. We speak in the interests of justice, and are satisfied that every friend of freedom will go with us. Entertaining these sentiments, it is needless to say, that we have perused the circular attributed to Mr. BRENT, the American Consul at Lisbon, and which has appeared in the Times of this morning, with equal surprise and disgust. It is really disgraceful to see the agent of a republic which is constantly boasting of its liberality and love of justice, attributing the " most noble and generous senti ments" to a person on whom the anathema of all Europe has settled. It is truly ridiculous, on the other hand, to hear Mr. BRENT talk about the co-operation of Mr. MACKENZIE, whose bias in favour of the despot and apostolical faction is as notorious as that of the Noble LORD who sent him to Lisbon. We have no room for further comment today. In regretting the impossibility of inserting an account of the proceedings which took place at the Essex Public Meeting, we cannot help congratulating the whole coun try on the result, by which Mr. D. W. HARVEY'S amended petition was carried so unanimously. CITY, TWELVE. O'CLOCK. MAILS ARRIVED AND DUE THIS MORNING. •. ea O Dubllo 0 o Waterford ..... 0 O Goers. do Jersey 0 1 Leeward Islands 0 A. D.

The information from Toulon says, that great activity prevails in that port to get ready the expedition against Algiers by April next. The Government have lent there 12 millions of franca in part to pay the naval expellees.

The Colombian Convention was to commence its Sessions in January. HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK. Since the early part of the moaning, when Consols were 92a for the account, more spirit has manifested itself in the market, and Consols have improvbil to 92; 1 for the account, and 99i for money, which appears to be in great abundance, as It was obtained in the house at one per cent.

VOTE OF THANKS PO TAB MARQUIS OF BLANDFORD. Mr. COBBETT, in closing a powerful appeal to a crowded and respectable audience last night, about the course which all ought to pursue in the present crisis— his adtiniahtni being, petition upon petition, from every class in every parish, district, village, and city, to be relieved from the taxes on beer, malt, hops, soap, and candles—referred to the course pursued by the Marquis of BLAB DFORD, the other night in the House of Com mons. Mr. Cobbett said, that the Noble Marquis, having in his mind's eye the example *of his own illustrious an cestors, as well as the example of the fathers of those who were present, rose, like a man in his place, and said that he would not consent—as a Representative of the People—to vote away millions of money at that hour, or at any time, before the crying petitions of the people, for relief, were listened to. The people, said Mr. Con- BET; paid, in fact, the money thus voted away; and he gave it as his own unbiassed opinion, that the motion of the Marquis of BLAB DYORD that night was worth more than all the seven-hours speeches which were framed for the purpose of deceiving the people with regard to the real state of the country. lie added that al though the company before him was not organised or collected for any special purpose, yet he would sug gest that the conduct of the Noble Marquis should not be allowed to pass quietly into oblivion—that he should, by the unanimous voice of the people, be encouraged to persevere— and that, as the only means of letting the Noble Marquis know what had passed in this assembly, he—Mr. C9IIB ET r—would suggest the following reso lution: " Resolved —That it is the opinion of this company, that the Marquis of Blandford is entitled to the thanks of the country, for his endeavour, made in the House of Commons on the 9th instant, to prevent any supply being voted to his Majesty, until the griev ances of the people should be redressed." No words can describe the enthusiasm with which this resolution was carried; and Mr. Co BBETT retired amidst the loudest applause. FUNERAL OF LORD GRAVES. The funeral of Lord GRA VES took place this morning at eight o'clock, and his remains were deposited in the vault of the Chapel in Regent-street, in the parish of St. George, Hanover-square.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Fez. 11. Tut ATTORWZY-GENVIAL V. (PIERS. The argument in this cue which was postponed from last Tenn, was resumed this morning. The facts of the ease are shortly these r—On the 12th Dec. 1838, the Superb steam.packet arrived in the port of London from Calais. Part of the contents of the vessel were live packages,whieb were marked L.G. meaning,Lord Granville, the Ambassador at Paris. The ship was reported on that day ; and on the 13th, a bill of sight was executed for the purpose of clearing the ship, and the piWtaga were conveyed to Galley Qua/ by the agent of the ship, named Noronha, where they re. maned until the 29th, when they were entered as belonging to bud Granville. At the Custan.house they were opened; cos package' was found to contain furniture, but the other four had about 1,800 pounds' worth of foreign silk in them ; they were accordingly seised and a verdict of condemnation pasted spinet theta. A rule to set that verdict aside was moved for and obtained. _ Mr. Sergeant Josse was this morning heard for the claimants of the goods. Mr. WALTON WAS about to reply, but he was stopped by the Court, who bare it es their opinion, that, when goods were brought within the limits of a port, under the circumstances in which these were, they were properly forfeited to the Crown ; therefore the leer. diet must stand. sominemomimer Extract of a letter addressed to us (ruin Nice, Feb. 2 : —" The communication between this place and Turin is only for mules or pedestrians.

CORBETT'S LECTURE. assembled Yesterday evening, at ht o'clock, the theat r e o f t h e Mechanics' Institutewascroude with deliverithpersons a for the purpose of hearing M r .. Co b bett lecture upon the prevailing distress of the community, and the means proposed for its remedy. Mr. COBBETT was hailed with shouts of applause, which continued for several minutes. As soon as silence prevailed, he commenced by observing that, since h. had had the honour to address his audience, he had been called to witness much of the prevailing distress of the country, which naturally suggested to his mind the ne cessity of adopting a speedy and effectual remedy. The present state of things reminded him of an old Latin proverb, which said—' Miserable are the people who live under uncertain laws," and, he would add, more par ticularly miserable, when the laws respecting money and property were uncertain. He could not avoid alluding in the strongest terms to the shifts, the uncertainties, there were respecting the currency. This time four years par liament passed an act by which the value ofmoney was more than doubled. They were now contemplating a scheme, which, if carried into effect, must reduce that value to one half its present standard. And thus would be dis jointed all the affairs that existed betwixt man and man. Unless money were of a fixed value, there could be no such thing as real property : all must be a sheer mockery—for what confidence could exist in men's minds when they knew not whether the money they now received would not be to-morrow reduced in value to a half or a quarter part what it then was ? It had been suggested as a remedy to return to a small paper currency—but what a miserable remedy it was. A strong desire had been manifested by the landed proprietors to effect such a measure—that was in effect to reduce property to one half its value. And this would seem the reason why those men were so anxious for such a change, because it would in propor tion reduce the mortgages on their estates. However. the Duke of Wellington, he was happy to perceive, ap peared determined to resist such a proposition. The Duke of Wellington would, he was sure, adhere to his purpose; for, great as he was, he yet was within the power of the people. It wad in their power to take away his majority from him. He had risen to too great a height to fall down silently, and he (Mr. Cobbett) could warrant his audient... that he would not. He could not now sneak out of office (hear, hear). Tlle Duke was right in adhering to his de termination, and he (Mr. C.) trusted he would not now flinch from it. But what was the cause of the existing distress ? By the late changes the taxes imposed upon the people had increased in a two-fold proportion. What then lie would propose was this. Take off those taxes—(hear) --remove the people from the burthon under which they had too long groaned. The House of Commons had been termed " the guardian of the public purse." What kind of a guardian it had proved was too well known ; but it was in their power to redeem the pledge they had betrayed. It was for them to remove those taxes, and he hoped they would yet come to a sense of their duty and amend—(Hear.) The argument of Mr. Baring that other nations were in distress too was not worth one rush, and which he would not nowdesignate by any other te; m than that of being very surprising—(Much liughter. The distress of other nations might be great, but it was not such as that which plunged men who had enjoyed the happiness of independence into wretchedness and misery, and taking them from their shops andwarehouses,and lodge them in the cell of some dismal gaol. Various were the remedies proposed for the relief of the distress, yet it had never crossed the mind of those wiseacres that the taxes were the great cause of the evil they were consulting to re move. What woo Mr.Maberley'e plan? Why it was this: to coin some few thousand exchequer bills, down to as low a sum as one pound ; so that when a gentleman came to pay his coffee-house account, he had only to pull out an exchequer bill, which the unfortunate landlord must not refuse to take in exchange for his tea and coffee.-- (Laughter.)—Mr. O'Connell had proposed to do away with the sinecure office of the lord lieutenancy of Ireland, which he stated would be attended with a saving of 30,0001. a year Such sinecures were a sad cause of much of the distress that had long prevailed. It was by doing away with those that the government would do away with a great part of the taxes. He would then warmly advise his audience to petition Parliament to do away with those sinecures. If they did not complain, what would be the inference? Why that they did not suffer. The taxes that he would have them more particularly to pray for the repeal of were those upon malt, hops, leather, soap, and candles; and they should petition, not for a partial, but a total repeal—not to leave so much to Le collected as would cost the nation nearly as much in employing tax-gatherers to collect. He would then have them strongly to represent their grievances to the government ; strongly to call for redress ; and, especially, firmly to protest against a return to the small paper currency.—(Cheers.) He had before stated, that the House of Commons was de signated the guardian of the people's purse. How much it deserved the appellation he would leave to his hearers to decide. There was, however, one member ho could not pass by who had lately set an example to the House of Commons that they would do well to imitate. He Alluded to the Marquis of B'Andford--(hear)—who, the other day, on a motion for the house going into a com mittee of supply, rose and moved that no supply be granted until the existing distress was relieved. His proposition was strongly opposed, on the ground that it would be very inconvenient. Still the noble marquis per sisted, and after considerable difficulty succeeded in di viding the house, when there appeared to be present hilt twenty-eight members—a small number out of 658 to vote away the property of the public. However the noble Marquis's perseverance so far prevailed ; and he could not conclude his lecture without moving a vote of thanks to the Marquis of Blandford for the spirit he displayed by this conduct; finally urging his audience, in the strongest language, to petition and to urge the Parliament, first, for the removal of the existing taxes ; and, secondly, that they would resist any attempt to adopt a system which must have the effect of bartering away the King's money for a useless paper currency. A vote of thanks, which we have noticed elsewhere, was passed to the Marquis of Blandford, and the meeting dissolved. The works which have been for some years carrying on at Windsor Castle, both exterior and interior, being now nearly completed, upwards of 300 men, mechanics and labourers, have, during the last four months, been discharged.
