'HE COMMITTEE for aecuring the RE-ELECTION of HENRY HANK ES, Esq. will meet daily at Morley's Hotel, Cockspur-strict, Charing Cross. The Freeholders resident in London, are desired to meet the Corn. mittee there on Monday next, at Twelve o'Clock precisely. Morley's Hotel, Cockspur-street, 7th May. 1831. F, EVENING STAR,. LONDON. SATURDAY, MAY 7. Lord ROBERT MANN ERS, son of the Duke of RUT LAND, in whose family the representation of Leicestershire, has been almost immemorially, after having carefully can vassed the whole of that County, and finding that his hopes there were altogether fruitless, has prudently resigned his pretensions to its representation. ••••••11 It is a pleasing feature of the present great contest, that not a single new Tory candidate has ejected a Reformer, while, to this time, at least fifty new Reformers have ejected as many Tories. If other Tories have been returned in place of old members, these also were Tories ; hence the Tories have no gains to set off against the gains of Reformers. It is true, Mr. TAYLOR lost his seat at Durham; but Mr. CHAYTOR, a Reformer, took his place, and it is doubtful whether Mr. TAYLOR was in earnest; for if he had been, he might have ousted Lord Lon DON DERR Y'S nominee. At CAMBRIDGE there is a change, but no gain, since PEEL and Gov Lau RN were in the last Parliament; and nothing lost, because Lord PA I.3IERSTON and Mr. CA VEN DISH will be returned for other places. In fact, our Thursday's cal culation, that England and Wales will afford eighty-four new members, all Reformers—lreland fourteen—and Scot land, at least, six—is confirmed by subsequent results, thereby adding 104 votes to one party, and taking 104 from the other. We therefore anticipate, that for the Reform there will be about 430 in the new Parliament, and 220 against it, and this is all the victory which the people can desire. But what a libel on the old constituency, that, in spite of the unanimous voice of the nation, 220 members should be able to secure returns. With less excitement, and a question of less interest, it would have been impossible to obtain a majority, and hence the misgovernment of the country. The HUNTINGDONSHIRE election commenced on Thurs day ; and at the close of the poll, Mr. ROOPER, the patriotic candidate, w•as 270, Lord MANDEVILLE 178, and Lord STRA TH AV EN 126 ; but as the latter voted for the second reading, and against GASCOYNE'S motion, and as the oppo sition is properly to MANDEVILLE, it seems reasonable that Mr. ROOPER should divide his plumpers with a moderate friend. .The melancholy death of Sir JOSEPH YORKE makes a vacancy for Reigate, which, of course, will be filled by the noble patron with another anti-reformer. The intelligence that Mr. DuNCOMBE has retired from Yorkshire, seats the POUR PATRIOTS, without a contest, tOr the other candidates, appear to have retired in succes sion. This alone is a great public victory, if the contest were not marked by so many. The boroughmongeriug mi nority will thus only represent the patrons of the rotten boroughs, the parsons at Oxford and Cambridge; and some two or three places where they got in by compromise, assisted by close corporations, such as Bath, Lincoln, &c. where the elections are as farcical as in rotten boroughs themselves. We have this day the task of recording one of the most 'Angular occurrences of the present Election—the return of tn•o anti-reformers in place of the tw•o former Members— one of whom is a Cabinet Minister, and the other allied to one of the most distinguished families in the Kingdom.— This is a moat extraordinary defiance of the KING, the Kix o's Government, and the People of England; but, in estimating the question, e•e must not break a butterfly on the FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. wheel, nor be dazzled by names ; for, after all, the defiance proceeds from a mere close Corporation, with all the vices, follies, and impotency of such bodies. The Reform Bill, and Reform generally—in truth, the ascendancy of common sense in Legislation and Governments —unquestionably en danger close Corporations of every form, and those of Uni versities among the rest. But what will the change effect? Not the learning, the honours, the estates, the immunities of the Members of the Corporation, but merely the power and influence of a DETERIORATED and CONSTANTLY na- TERIORATING junta, fatal to the glory of a University, and not substantively connected with the Institution. This Junta, then, it is, which takes alarm at the results of Reform, and being as to the Corporation like the centre of a wheel, it radiates its own alarms to distant parties, and hence, the chew of opposition concentrated at this Election. In thus explaining the true character of this opposition, we remove any chagrin which the friends of the Bill may feel, and we are then persuaded that they will rather feel mortification, that the Public Education of the Country should be in the hands of such C LOSE CORPORATIONS, than that any grave inference should be drawn from their decision and public conduct. The cause of reform, as we have stated, then. triumphs ; and there can be little doubt, that, as far as it will depend on the votes of the new Parliament, the bill is secure of passing into law. Thus, the representative system, defective as it is. has proved itself, under the patronage of the Crown and Government, capable of exciting so much of what physicians call the vis conservafrix nature', as to rectify itself without any supernatural violence. Is it not surprising that any politicians can be founed in this country, possessed of information, and who see the pie sent exhibition of public sentiment, and who will still main taiu the absurd doctrine, that the machine of govern- I ment could have proceeded one year longer, without ! an efficient reform, or convulsion ? Had the Parlia ment not been dissolved, could an Anti-Reform Ad ministration have worked the clogged wheel-work of our political machine, for six months together, successfully ? The possibility of such being accomplished, was quite evi dent to the Duke of WELLINGTON, when he retired ; and granting certain points as sound postulata to the DUKE, his reasoning was not incorrect, nor his conduct wrong. Thus, if it be admitted, as necessary for the political prosperity of Britain, that certain families in the Aristocracy should continue to aggrandize to themselves the emoluments of the State, and of the Church—if it were necessary that the palpable absurdities in our Ecclesiastical system should remain untouched—if it were desirable that the present generation, under one set of ciej cumstances, should be bound down by regulations formed by a former generation under other circumstances —if these are to be taken as indisputable postulata, then it must follow, that all reform of Parliament should have been avoided ; for we were in that predicament, that a little reform was certain to be as decisive of those points as much—the feather would turn the beam as effectively as the pound of lead. And it is in vain to imagine that any bit-by-bit contrivance—any finely extracted quintessence could have been produced, that would not have, as certainly, brought on the identical changes, that must, in the course of nature, occur in this Empire. To introduce, with the full power and influence of the executive, an efficient reform, was the most secure mode of moderating the rapidity of its consequences, and rendering that undestructive of present happiness, which was to ac complish future. That consequences are to be expected cannot be denied; but those consequences are to be bailed as blessings—as fruits of a hard wrought harvest—and only to be regretted by those whose downfall is victory. We forgot to state yesterday that all the details of ad vantage gained over the 6000 Poles, appeared in the STAR a week ago. It was during an adventure of a Polish Ge neral, but no way connected with the general operations of the main army. We are assured that the reports adverse to the Polish cause may be traced to the speculators in Russian Bonds. CITY. ONE O'CLOCK. Consuls, which left off yesterday at 801 a, for the ac count, opened at the same price, and remain stationary. In the Foreign Market, nothing doing as yet. A Mexican mail has arrived, which sailed on the 15th of March ; but we had later dates yesterday, via Liverpool, to the 23d March ; consequently, there can be nothing im portant from the above quarter. By the above arrival, Vera Cruz papers to the 15th of March have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house, which are desti tute of any news of importance. They mention that, since the execution of Guerrero, the people are submitting to the existing Government, and bring in their arms. All was tranquil. Bombay papers have also been received at the above Coffee-house, to the 26th December. They state that in telligence from China has been received to the 28th of Oc tober, stating that the Vice Roy of Canton had again ob jected to the resort of ladies to that place, and that the select committee were about to have recourse to arms, having ordered up the long-boats of all the Company's ships with a complement of fifty men in each, being determined to carry this point. CITY. TWO O'CLOCK. Report says that the French funds come one per cent. higher, which was the cause of an improvement in our funds. Consols, which were in the early part of the morning 801 for the account, went up to 80/ ; at present the are 80i L. In the Foreign Market, little or nothing doing. We have several reports—first, of an insurrection in the northern parts of Madras; also, that the cholera morbus had broken out 140 miles from St. Petersburg, and that the Emperor of Russia and his family bad left the capital. Another report, that there was an armistice between the Russians and Poles. PARIS, May b. L'Avenir contains a well-written article on the state of England. It remarks that, in proposing the Reform the Ministers were actuated by the hope of deferring to a remote period the great contest between the past and the future. The object was noble and patriotic, but, from the nature of things in England, is impossible of attainment. The vivifying spirit of the institutions of the country has long deserted them. The aristocracy is still t owerful from the number of acres and pounds sterling which it possesses, but it is no longer strong in the love, the faith, and the prejudices of the people. With its former virtues, with the hospitable profusion of its habits, it has lost the affection of its vassals. Enterprising in its way, it has speculated on its labours as the capitalist speculates on the artisan.--- .•1 complete separation has been operated between the pro prietor since their reciprocal duties have been merged in a question of wages, and the poor laws have equally extin guished charity in the one, and gratitude in the other. The only support, therefore, on which the English nobilty can depend, is that which may be bought, but of that they will avail themselves to the utmost. The elections will be a contest between the territorial and financial aristocracy.— Whatever may be the result, the consequences will be fearful. Should the former gain the victory, the commo tion will be immediate, while the triumph of the latter will only place them in the situation of Louis XVI. and the nobles who embraced the doctrines of 1789. The moment they arrive at the point at which they consider that reform ought to stop, a re-action will commence, which will end in the desti Lction of both the parties between whom the con test now is. The popular party, the party of the poor, will arise from their common ruin as a third power, and con sume the relics of both. Then the financial aristocracy, whose wealth is in a great degree fictitious, inasmuch as it depends on the existence of credit, will suffer even more than its rival. The demand for production will diminish ; I and as the greater part of the revenue of the state, which is now but little above the demands upon it, is composed of taxes paid by the consumer, the deficiency must be supplied at first by loans, and then, probably, by bankruptcy. This is the result of the state of the country, and no blame is attributed to the present Ministry ; they had no alternative but to yield to the popular demands, or silence them by force and the pale and wasted shade of the restoration whispered " Paris" in the monarch's ear. The inhabitants of Brussels and Warsaw said to themselves " If the Garde Royale gave way before the citizens of Paris, why should not the Dutch or Russian troops fly before us ?" Perhaps the citizens of London will, ere long, ask themselves a similar question. The Globe, which also styles itself le Journal de la Doctrine de St. Simon, gives the following statement of the diffusion of the tenets of this new sect :—" In Belgium, Messrs. Duveyrier, a member of the college, Duguet, member of the second degree, and Machereau, of the third degree, are engaged in organising the Saint Simonian fa - mily at Brussels, Liege, Huy, and other places. The mis sion of the south, composed of five members, have arrived at Lyons, after stopping at Macon, where the new doctrine was listened to with the most lively interest. The public preaching at Lyons was postponed on account of the indis rosition of M. Laurent, chief of the mission. At Limoges, Messrs. Boullard and Lemonnier, of the second degree, delivered three lectures, which were attended by congrega tions of between 400 and 500 persons, with profound inte rest and unequivocal marks of assent. At Meaux, a lecture was given to a very large assembly, and Messrs. Talabot and Robinet, the former a member of the college, and the latter of the third degree, are encouraged to continue their expounding of the fundamental principles of the new reli gion. At Rouen, Messrs. Jules Lechavalier, of the college, and Adolphe Gueroult, of the second degree, delivered in the course of the last tertnight of April several lectures to upwards of 500 people, who received them with great in terest. M. Lechavalier, in order to prevent disturbance, is sued tickets of admission ; but unhappily this regulation was violated, a crowd broke into the room, and a tumult ensued. The meeting was immediately broken up, and M. Lecha valier has taken measures to prevent a recurrence of si milar disorders." We learn from Paris, that Sir Walter Scott, and Mr• Cooper, the American Novelist, were about to have the new Order of Honour, tho Cross of July, conferred on them by the King of the French. Last Monday there was a grand procession of operatives in and around Glasgow, accompanied with music, flags fly ing, and many curious devices. The number who witnessed this ceremony could not be less than upwards of three hun dred thousand. Among the numerous inscriptions, on one of the colours was the following : " Take away the wicked from before the King, that his throne may be established in r ighteousness." La Quotidienne. in alluding to the effect produced on the people in London by the announcement of the corpse of the Duchess of Wellington being at Apsley House, remarks, " An incident of a similar nature occurred during Lord G. Gordon's riots, and it was then, as now, observable that there are certain things which the populace of England re spect to u degree capable of long resistance to the effects of philosophical emancipation. This moderation is more espe cially remarkable in London, an immense city, the population of which is constantly being swelled, not only by the refuse of all England, but by a crowd of adventurers, whom its neighbourhood to the sea enables to flock thither from every part of the globe." ITALY. GENOA, Aram 23.--The affairs of Romagna are settled at Rome, between St. Aulaire, the French Ambassador, and the Austrian Am bassador at Rome.—The Austrian troops shall evacuate all the Roman territory, except Bologna and Ancona, where they will keep genii= for a li.ng time. A letter from Ferrara of the 21st of April says, the Austrian army in Italy has just been raised to 130,000 men. It is affirmed that the son of Napoleon is coming to join the army. A letter from Milan of the 24th, says that the on of Napoleon will take the command cf a division of the Austrian army in Italy. A letter from Mantua of the 25th of April says— , A jew merchant has just engaged, by contract, to repair our fortress, which is to be put in condition to stand a siege in two months. The watchword of the Austrians is mystery, but we see powder, cannon, and Congreve rock- 1 eta, pass through every day.' Some disturbances having taken place at Faensa, Austrian troops were immediately sent thither. All the subjects of the kingdom of Lombardy and Venice, now absent without passport+, have orders to return home. Meantime their property is sequestrated, to be confiscated after the expiration of three months • those who do not return within that time all also have sentence Of civil death passed upon them.— Josraut du Commerce. According to a letter from Turin, dated the 24th ult. the military commission appointed by 'he Duchess of Parma, to try Lieutenant- Colonel Leonardi bas concluded its functions by convicting him of treason, and condemning him to death. It is reported that Genital Frimont has solicited a commutation of his sentence, and it is even hoped that it will be softened into banishment, without forfeiture of pro. petty. Accounts from hltxlena of the 20th &tax., that the dukcis not tit d with the judgments of the commission appointed by him, conceiving them not to be sufficiently severe. The last movements that took place, at Alodena and Carpi, have irritated him so much, that be has cam. mantled, every man who shall be hereafter found engaged in distar., butes or forming part of any Secret Society, to be tried by the Military Governors, who are dispensed from all judicial formalities, and the executions are to take place within four and twenty boors after conviction." SPI two members to Parliament, who say there ought to be no such reform as that which the nation calls for. The cause of political reform the re , fore lows two votes in Parliament; but We are much mistaken if the cause of ecclesiastical reform out of doors does not gain more than a dozen millions of voters. This return of anti-reform member, f u Cambridge, in the present condition of the public mind of Engs er d , dues appear to us, we confess, the most daring defiance of a unaninno t ., nation that ever was attempted by any body of men. However, Cmy cannot say it is our fault,—we have done our best to save them. Heiteirs.—lt ever there was a political cause that required not the assistance of intemperate language or violent action, it is the great asi righteous cause of Parliamentary reform. We should think that all men who honestly, and on principle alone, advocate a cause so rooted in reason and justice, can afford to argue it with calmness, and even 1 ,, show abundant seal for its success, without loing that temper and inc. deration which give dignity to truth. We, who were not th e sycophants of power when the Wellington Administration was in the height and pride of its authority —we, who stood by th e principles of the Constitution when we almost stood alone, m a y have some title, at the present crisis, to give advice to the peopl e of England; and our advice is that they should fight the bat t l e of reform with that sober energy which is as ream e from th e wild ebullitions of passion as it is from a spiritless rempe7, and elm' becomes a people convinced of the purity of their cause, and distin guished for reflection and good sense. The greatest enemy to a good cause is violence, because it puts the most plausible argument against a in the mouth of its adversaries. When passion takes the field, ho e can the voice of reason be heard ? But it is to reason and those virtues, which flourish under her benignant protection, that mankind are in. debted for the noblest and most enduring triumphs, which, on occasion% of memorable importance, extended the boundaries of enlightened 11e herty, and gave to justice and intelligence what had been usurped by barbarism and oppression. Tux Posr.—The threat, so eminently characteristic of the daring Reformers, who have undertaken, with the assistance of rabble force, to pull to pieces and reconsttuct the Constitution of Great Britain, was thundered out day after day, antecedent to and during the progress of the University election, by that Journal winch is supposed to enjoy the able literary aid, and known to profit by the official and senatorial pro. tection, of the Lord High Chancellor of England ; and this denuncia. don of vengeance against the Church was obviously and avowedly in. tended to extort the manes of the Clerical electors of Cam bridge in favour of the Ministerial Candidates. How little do these people know of the calm and sober good sense.—of the honest in. trepitlity—of the noble firmness, which conscientious and enlightened men, like the great majority of the clergy of the Church of England, are capable of displaying in a righteous cause I The clergy of the Church of England knew, from a thousand unequivocal indications, that the speedy destruction of that church Is one of the inevitable conse. quenu sof the political power, it continued for any considerable period, of the party issuing this threat ; and bad they not known it before, the threat itself would have been evidence more thin sufficient to convince the most incredulous. Who does not know that the threat fulminated against the Church, on account of the electors of Cambridge having refused to sacrifice their conscience and their honour in abject sycophancy to the instigators and confederates of mobs, is in fact no other than the first growl of the hungry wolf, eager to pounce upon the lamb he has already selected as his prey ? " How direst thou disturb the water when I drink ?" From the language of the ministerial or the rabble press (for at the present it Is difficult rose; which of the two confederate authorities in the State, ministers or mob, is the ascendant authority)iit is tolerably eery to conjecture what sort of protectors for the Protestant Church It is intended to provide by the Reform Bill, of which these concurrent powers are the authors and supporters. What assailants of the Protestant Church it has been determined to prcvide, by means of the ministerial mob mea• sure, as it must operate upon the Irish portion of the House of Coro, mons, we have already sufficiently explained on several former occasions. The Irish Bill will insure the introduction into the House of Com. moms of 70 or 80 determined assailants of the Protestant Church, agents and instruments of the Popish Hierarchy of Ireland— seventy or eighty O'Connell& The English Bill, if we may infer its effects from the manifest wishes of its chief supporters, will probably provide, as the parliamentary champions of the church, an equal number of persons, confirmed disciples of Paine and Voltaire, the Alumni of the Rotunda, seventy or eighty Taylors or Carina. The present ministers of the crown have excited a storm which they already begin to discover they can neither assuage nor direct. Seasons of fierce commotion or of im minent peril are usually fatal to the cohesion of parties having no simi. larity of disposition, nor any community of principle. The public, we have reason to think, will very aeon be apprised that there are some of the colleagues of Earl Grey and Lord Brougham whom nature never destined for revolutionists. Clinoxicx.r.—The glories of Liverpool do not exceed (that would be impossible) but they will keep pace with those of the country at large. She has nobly redeemed her character and credit. But now let us turn to Alma Mater Cambridge. Do the bigoted and sordid creatures who are now busy, from the Judge to the Curate, In covering her with disgrace, in exposing their parent's shame, really fancy that this one spot can stand dry amidst the flood of virtue and reform which is sweeping the land in its full tide? Will the cleansing tide leave Cambridge University alone, untouched, to its native pollution 1 Su ridiculous a notion cannot remain many days In the beads where, by chance, it may have found admission. The Cambridge parsons and heads of houses can. not seriously expect to make head alone against the whole people of the United Kingdom. It is not, therefore, from any idea of the consequences of their pernicious folly injuring the great cause of Reform that we feel any sorrow for the more than monkish ignorance which is now exhibit. ing at Cambridge, under the auspices of Messrs. Goulburn and Peel.— But we are somewhat alarmed for Cambridge herself. Will she and the Church Establishment not suffer by this pettinadous resistance to the universal will and feeling ? Some stupid fear about Tithes and Fellowships, no doubt, has been the lever by which the Gout burns and Peels have worked. Are Tithes and Fellowships much more secure in the general disgust into which their owners have fallen, since their conduct has exposed their base and selfish motives ? But one word as to these champions of Tithes and Fellow. , ships. We give the University mach joy of such steady and vigorous support ! How loudly did the same men bawl for the Protestant • Church against the Catholics and Dissenters ! Who so ready, when it suited their own purposes, to turn sharp round, and, leaving the Church in the lurch, to vote for both the Test Repeal and the Emancipation Acts ? These are truly the Goulburn and Peel tribe. Fit men to be trusted ! Well may we repeat of them what Mr. Tierney said of their deceased idol, Lord Castlereagh.—" Trust hini Gracious GOD! Trust the Noble Lord !! !" MELANCHOLY DEATH OF SIR JOSEPH YORKE. CAP- TAIN MUDDY, R.N. AND CAPTAIN YOUNG, R.N. SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY, MAY 6.—Yesterday evening, as a small craft of eleven tons, belonging to Captain Bradby, residing at Hamble, near this town, was returning from Portsmouth to Ramble . , having on board Admiral Sir Joseph 1 orke, Captain Bradby, R.N. and Captain Young, R.N. also the boatman, whose name is Chandler, and a boy as an assistant, when nearly home, a violent storm arose, which upset the boat, and all on board perished ! The bodies were soon after all picked up and removed to Hamble, where they now lie for a Coroner's Inquest. This sad and sudden calamity has occasioned great affliction in this town, and must cause great sorrow and grief when it becomes known to their friends and connections. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
