Ministers might learn. a useful and salutary lesson from the events which have followed the dissolution. Their misdeeds had not only ap palled the hearts of the People, but had shaken asunder the best foundation of their liberties. Yet had the violators of their country's laws and the enslavers of foreign States proudly rocked themselves into the slumber of security, relying on the presumptuous hope that their power, and the exhausted state of the People's finances, would enable them to rivet the chains of oppression for another seven years. In this unchristian eXpectation the Ministers of the PRINCE REGENT ire destined to be disappointed, and we congratulate the inhabitants of this long injured. and subservient country which, in its adulation to a wicked set of Ministers, has mis taken obedience to their measures for the loyalty due to the nation, the Sovereign, end the laws, on that returning sense of virtue, character, and feel ing which has re-asserted the Rights of the People, and established a principle, not alone of partial good but of universal efficacy, on which the happiness of the community at large was and must ever be mainly dependant. It is only where the tyrannic influence of aristocratic dominion and the power of corruption remain unshaken, from the interrupted progress of that prosperity which ought to hare been the lot of every indisidual of this country, and is the parent of independence and awry manly 81111 patriotic 11001. anent, ---it is only where these ungenial obstacles pre. Tad that the system of the present G o vernment has obtained any triumphs. The solitary example of a single rouoty, far less one in the situvion of Westmorlarol domineered, over by a family in the interest of the Court, ,4 proud as Ap.dlo on forked hill," will avail but little when put in co o mparison with the unequivocally express ed setirintoots of the majority of the inhabitants of the kingdom. As to ‘V es tmorland, where the spirit of independence has been suppressed by the m o st iodefoosible means, and from whence ell the sophistry of the Courier fails to extract a triumph, it is well known that that County has been virtu - Illy shut up for half a century, end degrad ed to the rank of a close Borough ; one powerful family having, from time immemorial, named both its Representatives; so much so that an Election for that County has, for many years, been as unmeaning a form as an election of a Bishop, by the Dean and Chapter, under the King's writ of Gouge d'Elire.— The Freeholders are in effect disfranchised ; but the spirit of independence, though long repressed, was not extinguished, and it has recently burst forth with uncommon energy. It is not easy, indeed, to appreciate the Went and influence of the Low- Vita family, or to conceive the numberless ave. roues by which they can make an appeal to the We lt, to the hopes, and the fears of an immense tmber of Freeholders. The whole Clergy of the tablished Church are in their interest—every man to hopes for preferment, for himself or for his trtds, at the hand of Government, Must become ?ir decided partizan : nor is it easy to calculate the Imber of those who, on account of their private .erest, would be induced to vote for them, how ,er repugnant such a vote might be to their own dings. It required, therefore, no ordinary de- Ite of moral courage to venture on a contest in %rich so many private interests were arrayed against ,em ; and, under these circumstances, the exertions tat have been made reflect infinite honour on to independence, the patriotism, and the magna imity of the Freeholders of Westmorland. — .so the temporary success of the resistance to the pro ;Tess of independent principles in Westmorland, we )fight oppose the signal triumph obtained to the cause of the People and sound Constitutional policy in Devon, where Lord EBILINGTON and Mr. BAS •ARD have been returned upon principles avowedly 'he reverse of those that have guided the present Ad. ministration, and Sir THOMAS ACLAND, a Seconder tf Addresses to Royalty, *and a supporter of the late war, has been cast back like a loathsome thing, on account of his public principles alone. Sir Trip us, in seconding and supporting the wishes of those who have sunk this nation and the People of others - into a state bordering ors despair, like many °therein the late imbecile Parliament, sadly mistook the road to glory, Well may the supporters of the mew. slues which have brought this ignominious glory upon us, in the insincerity of their sinister hearts, acknowledge the conviction of the errors they have committed. --But will their quibbling confessions of ignorance and mistake remove or atone for the evils which their political conduct has occasioned ? Glory indeed! Is there any glory in the disgusting view of Great Britain, the queen of isles, the patroness of freedom, the bene factress of the world, leagued with despots, as the champions of intolerance, the friend of su perstition, the foe of liberal notions and generous ideas ?--And what has she gained in the successes she has to boast? The friendship (mighty bless ing !) of all the imbecile and profligate Princes end Governments of Europe, and the curses of myriads of its inhabit a n ts! She has gained glory; glory arising from death and desolation, destruction and murder; not that true glory, inestimable in value, which eurroonds the benefactors of mankind. Whether we trace the self-named deliverers from the smoking ruins of Moscow, to the field of Waterloo, wailing through blood, with terror in their front, and cotiquest, famine, and desolation in their rear, on the march of deliverance, attended by the groans of thousands, and the execration of millions, to the gates of Paris—we ask in vein what objects favourable to the interests and happiness of mankind have beet; accom plished by the mighty coalition which lays claim to our praise and future suffrage. • They promised to deliver France from the tyranny of NAPOLEON ; and to evince their sincerity, have deposed a Ruler of the People's choice, and placed upon the Throne one of their own.--Bosarawrs hes been hurled from his Throne—but France has been made to drain from the cup of misery and humilia tion, a more bitter draught, than was ever forced upon her by the Exile of St. Helens. She has been delivered, and is ruined. The National Guards have yielded to Cossacks; and the Legion of 110- I Door is supplanted by the troops of WELLINGTON. — They promised to restore Poland, and liberate Spain. The laud of koscrosso is parcelled into military districts, to feed the rapacity of her conquerors;; and the Holy Inquisition is revived, to indemnify the Spaniel& for their loyalty. They promised to emancipate Europe, and secure the peace of the Con tinent. Accordingly, we see the Autocrat of all the Hussies, with an army of 600,000 men, ready to I suppress the first symptoms of discontent, and watch- 1 ing with anxious solicitude over the liberties of Swe den, Prussia, and Denmark ; securing to vassals the right of toiling : and to Princes the right of reaping, unmolested, the fruits of their labour. Such is the condition of Continental Europe; while Ettgland, who has been the most prominent 1 agent in this business, finds herself, after a long and desperate struggle, 6 ' up to the ears in glory and in debt I"—Her Treasury is exhausted—her People, oppressed with a load of taxes, have been driven to a state of desperation. They have laid their grim". ances before Parliament; but, instead of redress, hey met with insult added to injury. This is glory, ruly —Reader, " How do you like it ?" French Papers to the sth inst. have reached us.— They contain no direct notice of the conspiracy by the warm friends of the Monarchy, the Ultras, to depose the King. but the signs of hustle and appre hension about the Court are too obvious to avoid remask. The Duke of WELLINGTON arrived at Paris on Thursday, and was the neat day closeted sue. cessively with the Duke of RICHELIEU, and all the Ministers of the Allied Courts. The National Guards of several districts in the Department of the Seine have been ordered up to the Chateau of St. Cloud, there to du what is termed the King's duty, while his Majesty remains at the Pilace. A Mail from Holland brings Papers and Letters to the 4th instant. it is positively stated, in accounts from the French frontiers, thatthe Austrian and Ba. Tarim' detachments of the Army of Occupation have actually return.d borne. GREENLAND FISIIERY.—FIRST ARRIVAL. HULL, JULY 6.--The first arrival from the Fishery is this morning. The Prince of Brazil, Capt. TODD, arrived in the Humber from Greenland—a fall ship. Captain TODD has not seen any ship since the 3d of May up to that date. Ile reports as follows : North Briton, 8 6sh I Duneonthe, 3 fi,h Jane. 3 Aurora, 3 Wolker. 2 Esnomth. I I Neptune. L Lord Barham, 1 Lord %i ellington, I Gilder, I Shannon, I. --- More American Papers have this day reached us; hut they do not contain any news of importance. THE QUEEN, &c. —Although the account of the state of her MAJESTY was no more favourable than that " the QUEEN was a little better," yet we are happy to say she was so much relieved on Monday as to be thought able to receive the Princess ADE. LAINE of BilEl/41NGEN. and the Duchess her mother. The Princess and the Duchess, attended by the Coun tess MUNSTER, left Grillon's hotel yesterday about. one o'clock in one of the PRINCE REGENT'S carriages and four, with oot-r:ders, and proceeded to Kew Pa lace, where they arrived about two o'clock. About 1 the same time the Duke and Duchess of CAMBRIDGE walked across the lawn from their house on Kew green to the Palace. The Princess of NlEtHttsceat and the Duchess were conducted to the QUEEN'S pri. date apartment, where they were introduced to her MAJESTY by the Counts MUNSTER, arid were most graciously received. ~. -.... .

COUNTY GALWAY. Thursday, soon After twelve o'clock, the Coonty Sherds, the Candidates, and their friends, proceeded to the County Hall, for the purpose of electing two Members to serve in the ensuing Parliament. After the usual formalities had been gone through. lames Daly, of Dursandle, Esq. was prrposed as a fit and proper person to Represent this County; D. R. Daly, Eq. of Dalystown ; and Richard Martin, of Clare. Esq. There was no polling, and the Meeting adjourned till eleven o'clock on Friday. The PRINCE REGENT left town yesterday after noon, about lialf•past four o'clock, to attend the QUEEN at Krw. THE PRINCE AND PRI NCE ' S OF HMI:ATOM BURG.—There has been sonic disres p ect shown by some person or person s in (Alice in France, to the 1 Prince and Princess of lIEssE.HomnuEG. They ar• rived in the Royal yacht off Calais on Monday afternoon, and it being low water, they were put on s h or e i n an o pen boat about four o'clock, 14:1Pii the on ly military honour the amiable Princess Emz A• BETH, the daughter of the King and Quern of Great Britain, the sister of the PRINCE REGENT, received, consisted of three soldiers and a corporal in undtess, and they did not even present arms, and did not pay attention to the Illustrious Personages ; whereas, when the Grand Duke Micitatt. arrived there, he was received will, a discharge of cannon, and as is the case when an Ambassador passes through. The Prince and Princess remained at an hotel till twelve ' o'clock the nest day, and there was no guard of honour at their door. It is the opinion of persons most conversant with the routine of Parliamentary Business, that it will be necessary for the new Parliament to meet about the end of October or beginning of November. — This opinion is grounded upon te premptio sun that there will be a great number of Petitions against the returns to the House of Commons, which will necessarily divide the attention of the House with the ordinary public business, and re quire en early arrangement. The Minister will also have to feel the pulse of the New Members, and ascertain whether they be amiable or not, prior to the introduction of any favourite and important measure. The House will present the old scene, but there will be manly new actors; and it is ne cessary to be acquainted with their talents before he can cast the parts. The late company had de clined sadly in wit and eirquence. %We trust that a large portion of both, to make up for the defi ciency, will be found in the new recruits. Papers from Canada to the Ist of June, state that considerable discontent prevails in that p r ovince. — The whole district of Niagara, having adopted the principles and proceeded according to the advice of M r. GOURLEY, in an address to the resident Landholders, every township held meetings, and have each chosen a Representative. These Repreeentatives( I 5 in number, among whom ire several Magistrates) have met, and chosen four to represent the district in the Provincial Convention, appointed to meet at York. Uppt'r Canada, on the Gth of July, in order to send Com missioners to England. w ith an address to his Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT, respecting the conduct of the Local Government. The Committee of Nia gara District have invited others to follow their ex ample. Saturday, the 6th of June, was appointed for Township Meetings, to nominate Township Re. presentatives. Much injury hail beets done by tires in Lower Canada, in the woods. At the German Settlement of the Claudiere, and in that of the Seigniory of St. Gabriel, several houses and a quantity of corn had been destroyed. The King of DENMARK has published an Ordinance, for regulating the provisions of the Law of Libel in that country, with regard to writings that might he deemed offensive to Sovereigns maintaining relation. of Amity with the Court of Copenhagen. The Ordinance renders those responsible who cause the offensive writings of others to be printed. Costs EXCHANGE, JULY B.—We have had several arrivals of Wheat and Oats since Monday, and there being but few buyers at Market, it was with difficulty that Menday's prices could be obtained.-11srley is also dull sale, and nothing but prime samples fetched last day's prices.—Beans stud Peas are hob ) , s ale and rather cheaper. c l 1 : rost, numb , Estab 0 who ifriend i their i numb inter' , . ever . . , feelit .1 . . . . gree whic them that the nimi t To I gres t' 11 wig] , ) 1 Mr . ) ' in 1 ) , TM , • • the . , mill of / wry 4 1 on t''' 1!
