Coaches are provided to convey Electors in the interest of Mr. Bankes to the Poll, upon application to the Committee, and they will be glad to receive n from the Frmholders. A. BARING, Chairman. Morley's Hotel, Cockapur-atreet, May 13. N.B. Mr. BANKES's Dorchester Committee sits daily at Mr. B Jacobs's, in the High East Street, Dorchester, to which any communi cations are requested to be addressed. THE EVENING STAR. LON DON. FRIDAY, MAY 13. Monsieur GOROSTIZA, the Mexican Minister, and the Chevalier De MATTOS, the Brazilian Minister, transacted business at the Foreign Office, in Downing-street. The letter of our correspondent at Paris, which we give below, impresses us with great apprehensions, that the re publican party are not improbable soon so to gain the ascen dancy in France, as to enforce on the executive, in order to stop its further progress, a great change in the French inter national policy. SEBASTIAN', and the peace party, although probably the wisest, are evidently not the most popular party in France, nor that entertaining the most gene rous sentiments ; and we fear there is a mass of discontent arisingfrom wantofemploymentand pecuniary embarrassment in that country, which is not difficult to excite —or, to speak correctly—is difficult to keep unexcited. It is not unlikely, that ere long, another attempt to modify the Ministry will be made ; for it is evident the coercive system will prove itself impracticable,in the way which is always usual with it; that is, by always requiring increase in its degree, until ha-1 sardous or completely impossible. So it was, that the Polig nac Administration failed; and so, we fear, will every Go verment fail, at this period of society, that will not conde scend to keep pace with the age, in which it is destined to act. The death of the King of SARDINIA, and the accession of his liberal nephew, Prince CARIG N AN, afforded hopes for the Peninsula ; but the gloomy disposition of Austria is again interposed, and the Court of France looks on with studied apathy. It will be seen, however, by our subse quent extracts, that the new King of SARDINIA is develop ing good intentions, whatever may be his power. The cause of the ITALIAN Patriots was that of freemen all over the world, and creates in England all the sympathy which we are able at this time to transfer from our own af fairs. Nevertheless they are driven from their country for asserting its rights, and indebted to the liberal administra- tion of Tuscany, for being allowed to escape, even as penny less fugitives. Others less fortunate have been incarce rated in Austrian dungeons, or subjected to criminal prose cutions by the Pope, w•ho is sustained in his temporal power by Austrian bayonets. So much for the principle of non intervention, by which France and other countries have been attempted to be cajoled. In the meantime, the fretful feelings of the French popu lation are displayed in every thing. The veriest trifles are a cause of excitement and alarm ; and though cajolery and Jesuitism may confer an outward quiescence, yet it is evident that the common sense of the people is engendering a reaction, which will, in due time, lead to very important consequences. The man of the revolution are not dead, if they repose ; and French repose seldom takes place but in a season of preparation for action. The outward signs of attach ment to Louis Pa ILIPPE, arise from the circumstance that in every great population, there are enow of voices to give colour to every cause. CHARLES X. and his whole court went in state to Notre Dame on July the 20th, amidst the viva: of a masa of the population of Paris ; and eight days after he ceased to be King of France! Where there are germs of discontent bottomed in principle, and supported by public predelictions, they will, and must produce effects ; and Italy, Belgium, Poland, Spain and Portugal, amuse every fondly cherished predeliction, in the mind of every true Frenchman. The Bci.o lax s continue to maintain a wonderful tran quillity, in spite of the crafty interventions to prevent the settlement of their government. They desire a Republic, but Kings say they must, and shall have a King ! They yielded, and even chose a King, but the jealousy of the powers one of another hindered his acceptance to dig nity, while others, named and approved, have by foreign influence been interdicted. How long is this solemn farce to be continued—how long will the people of Beligum and of Europe endure its insulting enactment ? Of the Poles we spoke at length but yesterday, and we think the British Lion has been couchant, and the French Eagle prostrate, while that frightful tragedy has been per formed in the face of enlightened and civilized Europe.— If political honesty prevail in the New Parliament, to the extent we expect, some unsophisticated Politician will arise to advocate the cause of Poland, whose independence of Russia, it is the policy of all Europe to sustain. Surely also the tyger of Portugal will merit considera tion, replaced as he was in power, by the hitherto unex- t t. , !`~~4 '1 $; is rir! ~. T MEM R . FOR THE STAR. plained withdrawal of the British forces, under whose wing a free Constitution was at the moment coining into birth This is one of the black spots in modern history, which a free parliament will, we trust, lay bare. The English elections begin now to draw towards a close. Cornwall, Dorsetshire, Worcestershire, Shropshire, and Pembrokeshire, are now the remaining scenes of contest. In the three first, victory is not doubtful ; in the two last the public seem likely to be baffled. The machinery and daring of the opposite party are too well concentrated, fur a tame county like Shropshire, or a dependant and hoodwinked' one like Pembrokeshire ; or indeed any of the Welsh coun ties, where the feudal system and subserviency to aristocra tic pretensions, prevent the existence of a self-thinking public. The machinery to which we allude, is not merely the or dinary species open to both parties ; but a monopoly of it. Wo alluded yesterday to the cast., of Huntingdon, where not a public-house was left to Mr. ROOPER'S friends; and this we find has been the cats in Buckinghamshire and Montgo meryshire, where the freeholders were disconcerted. Pro bably, also, it is the case in Shropshire. Add to this, all the attornies in the districts have been engaged, so as to secure either their support, or neutralization ; and their in fluence on men's fears and interest', and on the practical means of carrying on an election, is obvious. Then the Lord Lieutenancies being filled, for the most part, by ene mies of the Bill, the dependant magistracy, and constituted authorities, generally, have thrown every obstacle in the way of the Reformers. That so many victories in counties have been achieved can, therefore, have arisen only from the freeholders being almost unanimous ; and the show of polling on the other side, there is no doubt, has been often maintained by the most undue means, and by influences irresistible to timid, or even pru dent men. As Shropshire is endangered, and will, if Messrs. HILL and PELHAM succeed, be the only county returning two anti-reformers, so every honest voter should instantly crowd to the poll. The county would never recover the stigma, and it would be an exception to the 3eneral triumph of the nation. If money is wanted, the Patriotic Fund know its duty, and will be expected to perform it. Now we have secured tlTelttwe of Commons, what will be the fate of the Bill in the Lords, is the general question The show of opposition through the country has a porten tous appearance ; but we should consider that it is from the inveterate and unchangeable Tories, who have not always constituted a majority in the House of Peers. There were equal doubts about the Catholic Bill, and it still more op posed the prejudices of the Bishops, yet it was carried. This, too, is exclusively a question pertaining to the constitution and privileges of the House of Commons, in which the voice of the Lords would be rather formal than substantive. To give the Bill the force of law as to the people, it must pass the three Estates; but what regards either House taken se parately is essentially its own concern, and in a certain sense as affair of privilege, with which the other House has but a formal concern. We think, therefore, that having passed the Commons, it will, as matter of constitutional etiquette, pass the Lords ; for though a score of their Lordships may dare to traffic in boroughs and seats, and those and another score may be active in the influencing of elections, yet the great majority have no borough property ; and in the late debates some of their Lordships described the House and the Peerage as scandalized by such transactions. If there were doubts, a batch of new Peers would remove tbem ; but ra ther than this should happen, many of their Lordships would yield, with grace, to the KING, Commons, and People.— They have already felt the consequences of not yielding in time. If some Reforms had been admitted long ago, a sweeping one would not now have been so generally de manded; and if this moderate plan is not accepted, other claims will soon become even more popular. We think, therefore, that the Bill, in spite of appearances, will be li berally conceded by their Lordships. CITY. ONE O'CLOCK. Consols, which left off yesterday at 821 for the Account, opened at the same price, since which have lowered to 82ii. We have seen a private letter from Amsterdam, stating that a report was prevalent, that the Russians were again obliged to retreat from Minsk, owing to the great scarcity of provisions ; as the Poles, in their retreat, laid waste the country, so that the magazines and provisions should not fall into the hands of their enemy. CITY. TWO O'CLOCK. The Consol Market, which bad a wholesome appearance in the early part of the morning, took a sudden change, and Consols receded from 821 to 82i for the Account. This is owing to a report that hostilities are going to take place be_ tween the Dutch and Belgians. We have seen a letter from Berlin, of the 6th inst. which confirms our former report from Amsterdam, that the Russians had retreated for want of provisions, and the Poles have advanced again. The private letters from Paris state, that the disturbances in the above capital is attributed to some of the ex-Mi nisters, who are using all manoeuvres to turn out the present ones. The cause, the glorious cause of Reform, proceeds most triumphantly ! Almost in every county have the anti-re formers been defeated ; and even those who considered themselves most secure are turned out in derision. Gen. Gascoyne's (the Nestor of the anti-reformers} rejection at Liverpool, is a moral lesson which will not easily be for gotten. The struggle that is now going on in the sister county is most gigantic, and notwithstanding all the influ ence and energy of the Tories, their cause is hopeless, their defeat is certain. The state of the poll is a most excellent criterion. We admire the talents of Sir R. Vyvyan and Lord Valletort ; we admire their independence ; we admire their manliness in taking the sense of the county ; it is acting in strict conformity with the wishes of the King ; he wished to take the sense of his people, and his people have demonstrated it in a manner that cannot be mis understood. His people have proclaimed to the world that the rotten borough system must die the death it deserves; and in no county has this been more strikingly illustrated than in the County of Cornwall, as the final close of the 1 1 poll will testify. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE EXCLUSIVE. PARIS, MAT 11. St n,—ln sending you the Journals of the day, in which you will find a number of interesting articles, I have only time to say, that great confusion prevails in this capital.— The Government has become alarmed at the republican ma nifestations of feeling by the people ; it endeavours to check them by the strong hand i'and hence arise the - utmost irrita tions on the part of the latter, and the arbitrary measures of the former. Just as lam closing my letter, great crowds are assembling about the Place Vendome, and the drums are now beating to arms. The time is too short for me to as certain the cause before closing my letter, but you shall hear next post. Youn, J. L. It is announced that M. de Flahaut is named Ambassador at Berlin, in place of Admiral Verhuel, who was lately promoted to that embassy, and who has not yet left to fulfil the functions. It is also said that M. de Van Dreuil, formerly Secretary of Legation at London under hi. Polignac, is named Chaigt d'Affgres at Parma.—Courier Francais. The system of M. Sebsatisni, in that which touches exterior politics; it is complete, it is the same at Constantinople as in Italy, for M. Gull. leminot, recalled on the one part, and N. S.aint-Aulaire sent on the other, are two acts which prove the same animus. It was also spoken of yesterday, that Marshal Mahlon was to be recalled : we are ignorant whether this fact is true, but it appears rather probable, when we think of the secret despatches of the Marshal, published in the National. M. Sebastlani, failing iu other qualities, puts logic in his foreign politics. He withdraws from the Embassies all men who wear a sword.—La Quo Minute. TEE DFCORATION or JULT.—Poor patriots of July ! You have fought:titree days—you have swept the- streets of Paris of the red habits of the Swiss—you have sprinkled the pavement with your blood—and you are now told in she teeth of that revolution made by you, that it was but a woosnitmt, an event. a were change of the Ministry 1 ! ! They say of you, whore hands overturn thrones, that you represent but an insignificant and powerless minority ; and that you give place to others. At first they were polite to you; then cold; then sulky ; then hostile and persecuting 1 The pekoes receive you like old acquaint ances; and you have had of the Tribune but the Court of Assizes.— You are:told to fold your arms Mier your immense work and wait events. It would have been better had you folded them before; and left your work to have been performed by those Sidemen, who now flit about and pay court to power. Oh ! the brave and sturdy despotism which would this day have hovered over France I and how legal resistance would have made Poltgnac and his Gendarmes smile !—But a last injury was reserved for you : they would amuse you with the playthings, the toys of children • they would bestow crosses and ribands upon you—make you Chevaliers of July. How the aristocratic pride of your enemies would be inflated, at the idea that you, brave men—men of mind and action— that you would be pleased with with their silly vanities; and that you wout=your energy in exchange for a military salute ! Thus, the presented itself so opportune to reason with you ; they have made conditions ; they would exact from you faith and homage; men who make a joke of oaths, would prescribe them to you. So much artifice-.so much anoganos--bas enlightened your minds. You have understood that these favours had no other aim than to enslave you. You have protested. It is from the people dome that you have a right to expect the recompense which is due to you. It was for the people alone that you acted; and the power which was constituted since July, owes you, for your intrepid devotion to liberty, neither thanks nor praises. The conquerors of the Bastille, In receiving their medal, took the oath of fidelity to the piers-11101. In your resistance to power, you have nobly continued your work of July. It appertains to you more than to others, publicly to protest against the deplorable system which turns against France the fruits of your heroic conduct. It belongs to you to fecal the rights of the people, for which you fought and shed your blood ; and to mark out the limits of the rights of the throne, which has been raised without you. But your loyal resistance cannot have a narrow and despicable aim; let the riband figure at your button. hole as long as the Ministry can see in it a sign of hostility; let it re main to you as a trophy of victory. Once masters of the ground, know how to appreciate, at their just value, these honorary signs so prodi gally bestowed by despotic and aristocratic Governments, where the hope of a recompense—of a distinction—is the main-spring of the citizens. Learn to understand that it is with baubles of this kind that patriotism and liberty are lost. Prize sufficiently high your dignity of man, to believe that a riband cannot raise you.—La tate. AUSTRIA AND ITALY. The new King of Sardinia appears disposed to enter freely into con stitudonal views. We arc assured that • general amnesty will be pub lished, and that that measure will be followed by the promulgation of a coustltutional charter, modelled upon that of France. It is added that Baron Frimoot, comm ander of the Austrian troops in Italy, when pre. seated to his Majesty, received a very cold reception. It is stated even that the King said to the Austrian General: " I fear no longer the in. trigues of your cabinet, for in case of need I shall be supported by a hundred thousand French bayoneta.—Gusclie Genevan. LACIDAWIII4 MAY 4.—A merchant, worthy of confidence, who has just travelled through Lombardy, reports that the general opinion Is for war. The day when the news arrived of the death of the King Sardinia, five eouriers were dispatched from Milan to Vienna. is at present in Milan, 00,000 troops, and, the troops comprised in a space of ten leagues. is 130,000 men. The same traveller moon tered upon the route from Venice to Milan a train of artillery so con. &Mumble that, during two days, the diligence could not promo' but at a walking pace. We suppose chat the Federal authorities charged to watch over our safety, know that twenty-four hours will be sufficient for the Austrian Army to transport itself, without noise, and without warning, upon the frontiers, and have taken measures to be informed of all its movements, and to give, in consequesee, orders in sufleient time. . write from Milan, April 27 There pesos here daily troops who march towards the frontier of Piedmont. The villages are crowded. We are lost in conjectures upon their destination."—Corres pendent de Nuremberg. It is notified to the city of Haymow, that the garrison will be imme diately raised to 14,000 men. The charge of the lodgements will not press upon the city alone it will be supported by all the confederation, and barracks will be promptly constructa for the troops..Giuresee UM verselle d'Augsbourg. We are insured that the Austrian Cabinet, immediately after the death of Charles-Felix, remitted to the Cabinet of Turin a diplomatic note by which it demanded a categorical declaration upon the policy which the new Government of Sardinia meant to follow. It recapitu lated at the same time, the obligations which the treaties and the coo. vendors concluded between the two courts, imposed upon Piedmont.— We have no need to state, that the greater part of these conventions are made with views hostile to France. The young King, Charles-Albert, has communicated to the French Government the note of the Cabinet of Vienna. This Prince, without wishing again to embroil him self with Austria, shows nevertheless already sufficient disposition to free himself from these treaties, at least in that wherein they are on to the interest and independence of Piedmont. Will be find, in the French Government, the support which it is necessary for him to have in order to accomplish that generous resolution ? It admits of doubt, when we think upon the conduct which our Cabinet has pursued unto the prompt time in the affairs of Italy. However, the general opinion in Piedmont is strongly pronounced for an amelioration of the political and administrative system.—Courrier Premeds. Ancona Aran. fig.—The Austrians are making great repairs at the Ci tadel and to the fortifications of the City even. It re minds one of the epoch of the revolution of 1821, when. ate: having obtained from the Pope the permission to traverse these States to com bat the Coustitutionalisui of Naples, they violated the most sacred rights of hospi.nlity, by demolishing the fortifications of Ancona and selling the materials for their own profit. Now, by a new violation of the right of nations and without taking any account of the timid in. junction of the French Government they lay a contribution upon the subjects of the Pope to establish themselves de facie in the country, expecting that the intrigues of diplomacy will ensure them definitively possession. POLAND. Waasaw. April 28.--The news from Samogitia is most enoonrsgimp The nobles and the peasantry make common cause.

TIMES.—For Irish members, or Scotch, or any others, to work mischief against the general interetts of the state, we must suppos e them to act in a trained and pr:meditated combination. New, w h at evidence have we from hi •h history of the poedbility of suet a leas ee y When way it known that a large body of Id.b Members of Parliam ent , or indeed Irish Aentlemee out ot Pailiantent, ever combined for any o ne sy tem, or even measure, of polity, except when receiving their kb . puke irom the nation et lathe? Of the latter exception, tee s late of Ireland from 1781 to 1783 mey be quoted as an example. And what was then the moving poet ? W by, the oppression practised upon Ireland by the Mini•tets of G.urge the Third, whom the common opinion of mankind hax long condemned. as it has vindicated and honoured the patriotic spirit of the Irish. At no u.her time, foe I no other end, do we recollect any tendency towards a strict snipe amongst Irish gentlem.n, as a body. It is hardly to be pr. mmed that even that sage statemian, tile discarded member for kiterpotti, coif deny to Irishmen the privilege of uniting for the redress of grievances; nee will any man, with half an idea to guide him, allege that it would not be safer for the empire to have a combination of Irishmen of pro. perry opposing the Minister on the floor of the House of Commons, than to provoke them, by an exclusion from Parliament, to meet in College-green and pass resolutions for a repeal of the Union.

For the it4l4se.es which ie henceforth to re turn Irish members to Parliament, we feel no particle of apprehension. HERALD.—We are told that, when Parliament meete, Sir Rober t Peel, or some one with his concurrence, is to I t the country into th e secret of the details of a qualified measure. If this ehould really be the case, we can only say that sucji a step will afford another striking in. suttee of that miserable system of postponement and delay which has charecterisrd every act ot the party from whom the main opposi.ion to reform has annneted. A statesman's mind should b. in advance dills age—_should take the lead and give the toee to every measure of im. provement instead of which the party to which we allude has been dragged and dragoon, d into every thing; and, as in the case of Catholic Emancipation, so on the measure of Ref cm, concession is only wrung from them, and is yielded with a reluctance which lakee from it the slightest merit, or even appeatanut of sincerity. The truth is they have no plan. Their "qualified measure" Is mere moonshine. There is not a sold among them elite can define what It means; nor have the opponents of Reform In Parliament hitherto meant any thing but a desire to cling to the rotten.borough system as their sheet anchor and their only hope. Till. is the true point upon which the country is at issue with them. On chi. point the whole worth of Reform rests. The value of what Lord J. Buts& Bill lire& bears no comparison to that which it takes away. In removing the Jacobus which has so long weighed upon the vitak of .be coun.ry, it will, of its. If, alone give a new pulse to our national exigence. On this point DO "qualified measure" must, or can, be heatd of; nor do we envy the hardihood of any man who would seriously ventere to offer one. No, a full, not qualified, measure is what the country demands ; and all the pions constitutional alarms of those who hare so long basked in the sun-bine of a contrary system will neither hate the effect of (righting the i.le hem hs pro priety, nor of one Immo). admitting a doubt that the country shall not now enjoy the fruits of die victory it has so nobly won. POST.—The Bing does not dine with the Lord Mayor, bemire his health is not good ; and, he desires it to be distinctly understood, for that reason alone. His Majesty, then, it is insinnated, would have dined with a Load Mayor who has enrolled himself in'the ranks of the radical faction—a class of persons who rest their cause exclusively on a sperm of violence and terror; with a Lord Mayor, who, so far from discountenancing by nay means in his power, an invidious di.. play of a particular set of opinions, at a period of great excite. ment, sant tinned that display, took a prominent put in it him. self, and thus inspired a lawless rabble with additinnal spirit and resolution to perpetrate violence upon the property of all the inhabitants who pr, mimed to think and act for themselves. Yet his Majesty, we sae to understand, ftels no displeasure, and declines dining in the City simply on account of his health, which, thank GOD, if we may judge from daily experience, gives no cause r any such apprehension as is here Implied, in the minds of his loyal subjects.

The Duke of Buccleuch entertained a large party to dinner yesterday, at Whitehall Gardens. General Comte Woronsow, the Countess Woronrow, fa mily, and suite, arrived yesterday at the Pulteney Hotel, Albemarle-street, from Russia. A Lisbon Mail has arrived off Falmouth : letters and papers will not be up until to-morrow, but it is supposed that Government have received their despatches. It is said that some of the largest promisee to the Anti- Reform Fund, now that they discover the hopelessness of the speculation refuse to " cash up," and that some of the candidates, who embarked on the expectation of going " scot free," are left " to pay the piper themselves. Sir James Macdonald, the new Member for Hampshire, has a small estate at Lyn, near Petersfield, and is scarcely known to the gentlemen of the county. His soccer has been entirely owing to the old families not being able to produce a single scion worthy of representing the count' upon reform principles. Lord Porchester, the son of the Earl of Carnarvon, might have walked over the comae, hid it not been for the Noble Earl's new and unaccountable hoe upon the reform question. The predestination of the King's visit to the city is ex plained in a manner which we conceive will satisfy them* captious.
