It is affirmed, however. thrd they will s,.t out the day after tomorrow.—( They had not arrived at Eucha... rest the 14th June.) The Porte, after numerous meeting. of the Council, In which the Chiefs of the Janissaries made much oppositien, hut at length suffered themselves to be persuaded by the Ileums, has resolved to titroduce the Nivint Ghaid, or European di.eipline, and to form a numerous army of troops of the line. If this measure, which has id.eady cost the lives of two Sultans, should be executed without nrther obstacles, this event would be of the highest importance towards the support of the Turkish Empire. The example of the Viceroy of Egypt, and of the advantage. gained in the Mores by dis ciplined troop., have silenced the scruples of many great men t and as the Janissaries and the 31AT11101 are provision4lly to retain their privileges, the accomplishment of this tlesian seems to have become uxre ce.y ; and therefore there will be nothing to prevent the form awn of a most powerful Turkish army. PARIS.4ULT 1. Accounts from St. Petersborgh of June 6, received by ;fai of Odessa, state that the Russian Commissioners were about to set cut tar the frontiers of Turkey. M.

There is every reason to suppose that no Envoy of other European Powers will take part in the conferences. The Cabinet of St. Petersburgh has caused a circular note to be cleavered to the Arnbassadtox of the Great Powers, expressing its s.t.isfaolon with the concessions hitherto wide by the Divan.

Brill IN JUNI' 27 '" • • • • By Recounts from St. Petresburgh of June 17 we learn that his Majesty the Emperor Nicholas bad issued on the 13th the follow. erg Manifesto : Fro n our Manifesto of 31%t Dec. our faithful subjects learnt the existence of a plot, the object of which was the overturnieg of the Thrtinc, a change in the form of Government, and the destruc tion of every thing that the country holds dear. " We had.conlideit to a Commission of inquiry the care of eon turning this wicked conspiracy to the bottom, to investigate the w h o le ext e nt, to penetrate to the root of the evil, to discover the progress it had already made, and to lay before us the result of the suquiry, furnished not upon mere conjecture, but upon positive midi-mutable evidence. " Necessity demanded a very accurate andcater sive inquiry. When in the foot days of our reign, by the inscrutable deerees lhvine Providence, we were made acquainted with a horrid plan, Which had been currying on in the dark for ten years, we recog nized the linger of Gals which evidently pointed nut to us nee ditty and conduct. and we have the more ornsibly felt the sacredness of these our (Julies, no the origin of the plot wan long before our acces sion to the throne, and by no means threatened our person alone, hut all Russia. " Such were our thoughts in appointing the Committee of In quiry, and such the principles that were to direct he pmeeedir.gs. After unwearied labours of live months, and after carefully weigh. ing every eircumstitnee, every confession, every action, rejecting all iateposaeasion, and proceeding only on clear evidence, oaths °pl ies-non, of the accused, and such means of conviction ns CAD admit ui no doubt, anti 'u the accused all the liberty necessary for their defence, the Committee has attained the end 'imposed, and laid before U 1 a detailed Report, with the necessnry genuine documents. " On considering this Report, there appear two kinds of guilt, very different in th e ir nature. Via first, of the highest importance' is high treason, continually aiming at its wicked purpose by plans tang conceived, obstinately persisted in, and matured. The second is delusion produced by weakness of character, want of ;ienetration to see through the real object of the conspirators by a momentary ellerveseence of the passions. followed by repentance. and in general amounts to unsteady plans a itheut a fixed object, anti without :mind co-operation. It is evident that the accused of the second class can he subjeeted only to such a punishment as may rzform them but the persons belonging to the first class, who be longed more or less to the centre of the plot. alto knew its object, all these, though not equally criminal, shall be included in the beTtellet. . '• M'e have composed the tribonstl, which shall be commissioned to pronounce judgment, of the three principal orders of the State, the Council of the Empire, the Directing Senate, and the Synod, and have added sonic persons, as well military an civil. The Pre sident and Members of the Committee of Inquiry shall not be a part of this tribtmal. By this of-urination we have desired not only to retain the an cient tpiages, but also to chew that we consider this cause at that of the llunniars a Ito love their country—as that of the whole Empire. •' Pl.tciog the f:te of the accused in the hands of this Supreme Council. we es pert and desire from it no otherthon impartial justice, founded on the laws and on the strength and clearness of the evi dence.

The Purser of the Thomas Grenville, East Indiaman, arrived yesterday from Calcutta. The Thomas Grenville sailed on the 2Sth February, and brings the important in telligence that Sir Asente.ern CAMPBELL was advancing upon Ummerapoora. The Enterprise steam-vessel had arrived at Calcutta front Prome, with despatches from Sir Atte II IBA too, which give further details of the movements of the army referred to in Captain CHAD'S report from the seat of war. It appears, by the private letters, that Lord COMBERMERE was on his return to Calcutta from Bhurt pare. The letter that we insert below proves the excellent arrangements of Rajah Ge manta SINGH, aided by Captain GRANT and Lieutenant PEMBERTON. The steady conduct and determined bravery of the troops admirably seconded the efrorts of their Commanders:; and the intelligence that we have been enabled to collect upon this interesting and highly important subject is in every respect satisfactory. The Burmese fought with spirit; hut being beaten, not withstanding the firmness they manifested, it seems they afterwards gave themselves up to despair, which was taken advantage cf by our troops; and the result of a rapid movement on their part was expected to carry the war into the enemy's ten itories. the road from the river to Ummera poora presenting no difficulties to the advance of an army. 311.:xt000n, JAN. 2.1. We are ' , MTV to be able to state that the Milanese hare been compelled to abandon the country, and retreat aerates the Ningti, by a series of gallant and judicious operations conducted by Rajah Gunibliir Sing. wish the assistance of Captain Grant and Lieut. Pemberton. The detachments sent to Kubboo Pergunah, as no- ticed in our letter of the 25th of Pecember, found the northern porlon evacuated. and the Burmese finer under the Sunjoo Rajah, and the Rajah of Tommie), to the number of 700 men, strongly wrongly stocked& at the latter place. Being too weak to attack the post, the Commander of the detachment sent for reinuorce merits, aneiGundiliir Sing and Capt. Grant immediately marched to his assistance lei lithe rest of the levy, across the Meting hill into the Burman territory, in which route they passed several stock ades that had been commenced in the dehle, but abandoned on their expected advance; they joined the detachment on the 18th. On reconnoitring the stockade, it was found to be of considerable strength and extent; the par) , were unprovided with artillery, and an attempt to dirty it by escalade must have been attended with serious loss. It was ascertained, however, that the water of the stockade was provided front a nullali about eighty paces distant, and advantage was promptly taken of this circumstance to cut off the Burmese from their supplies. On the 19 h, the 3lunnipone troops effected their advance, through a thick jungle, and were not discovered till they had ob tained command of the spots where access to the stream from the stockade was practicable; the enemy perceiving them, opened a heavy fire, but the men, being sheltered by the thickets, suffered little. The Burmese made several sptrited sorties, but they were received with great spirit • and in a desperate and final attempt, in the night of the 21 s t, being repulsed with severe lose, they com menced their retreat. The stockades were cleared by the night of the 22d, and taken possession of by the Rajah. Lieut. Pemberton joined the force on the 20th, and, immediately after the success, a detachment of 300 men was Bent forward, who succeeded in cap turing a stockade on the right bank of the Ningti River. Upwards of 200 people were liberated. A reinforcement of 500 had been ordered to join this advance ; and the rest of the levy was to follow to the banks of the Ningti, where it was expected that favourable opportunities would offer of carrying the war into the enemy's country. 'rho rand from the river to Ummerapoora is said to present no difficulties to the advance of an army. It appears by the accounts from Alexandria, that Egypt is precisely in that state which might be expected from the unenlightened policy of the Pacha. The products of the country, exported last year, fall short of those in the pre ceding year by about one-half. To this the scanty over flaw of the Nile has in part contributed; and it is be lieved, in consequence of this, that the cotton crop will also fall short one-half of that of the preceding year. All these causes are likely to produce a considerable defal cation in the revenues of the Pacha, and it is believed that his vices respecting the Morea have undergone, from all these eircumatances, a very considerable change. The as sistance which he will lend in future will probably be con fined to a few detachments of irregular Turkish militia. 'CVe were enabled yesterday morning, on the arrival of our Express, to confirm the report that we gave in a Second Edition of this Paper on Saturday, relative to the close of the Westmorland contest, by the retirement of Mr. aROUG HA 11 j and to-day we give the details of the circum stances at the conclusion of that election. The Elections of Ireland, it appears, are contlucted with a still greater share of the democratic spirit than these in England, and they have been productive of still more lamentable consequences. In these ca, - ;, however, the ion of lives has been occasioned, not by the military, but by the populace themselves; and the cons( quence may be considered as a pretty clrar proof of the effects which might have been produces(' in this country by the turbu lence of the people, if the armed force had not been held disposable, to restrain tin it license. %.1T Y, oiONDAY EVENING.

At 'a time when the Monarch of these realms stands forth as a most liberal encourager of the Arts and Sciences— as the powerful supporter of every plan for the improve ment of the country, and for increasing the splendour of the capital—when his highly-cultivated mind is exerting its best energies to give that capital a rank among nations, in the scale of taste as well as of those of wealth and in dependence--it is moat delightful to reflect that his sub jects are allowed to partake of those high gratifications, which even his private palaces (of course, accessible only to the chosen few) have hitherto afforded. Ills Majesty's gr: cious condescension in allowing his private collection of pictures to be opened for the amuse ment and gratification of his people, at the British Insti tution, is an event unparalleled in the history of European Courts; and King George the Fourth of England take the lead in this enlightened and liberal policy. his not enough for his noble feelings that he finds himself in the possession of some of the finest works of art that polished Europe can produce; but placing them before his people, he soya to them, " Share my pleasures ; partake of the delight which the contemplation of these treasures afford ; refine your taste, correct your judgment, and be satisfied that the pleasures of Kings are not always selfish—that their pur suits are not always without regard to the best interests of their people." By his Majesty's gracious liberality, we have before us one hundred and sixty-four Pictures, among which we find seven of the choicest works of Rubens ; eight of his more refined and graceful, but less vigorous pupil, Van tlyck ; seven of the magical effects of the powerful colour ing of Rembrandt ; nine of that most exquisite painter Wouvermans ; fourteen of the most finished labours of that faithful copyist of nature, Teniers ; six of the Choicest gems from the rich and animated pencil of Van Ostade ; ten of the brilliant, glowing, aerial summers of Cnvp; many of the beautiful, delicate, and elaborate works of Dow, of Metzu, of Mieris, and of Vanderwerf ; the charming groups of eattleof Putter, of A.Vandeveltle,of Berghent. and of Du Jardin ; the spirited whimsicalities of Jan Steen; the magical freshness and aerial breathings of Hobbima and of Both ; the matchless effects of storm and calm, of 'IV. Vandevelde and of Backhuysen. To these we may add the splendid productions of our immortal countryman Sir Joshua Reynolds, who soars like an eagle above his surrounding admirers, with the highly-finished and faithful labours of Zoffani, &c. and when it is considered that every picture in the collection is not only in the finest time and manner of these great masters of this magical art—that they are also in the highest and most perfect state of pre servation—that they have been selected by the eye of taste, matured by correct judgment, and under circumstances the most favourable to the acquisition of such treasures (the dispersion of many of the celebrated collections known on the Continent)—every individual who sees this splendid collec tion must feel proud of being the subject of the Monarch who possesses it, and grateful to him for his condescension in thus enabling them to enjoy the highly intellectual pleasure that such an exhibition affords. Nothing in the Arts can go beyond the excellence of most of those pictures, and we fear that we shall not " look upon their !ike again." The Duke of York took his daily drive as usual on Sunday afternoon in his carriage to Hampstead and its neighbourhood. His Royal Highness was visited yesterday by the Duke of Suisse:, the Duchess of Gloucester, and the Princess Augusta. On Sunday night Captain R. P. Gilbert, Military S,:ere tory to the Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Islands, left town with despatches from the Secretary of State's Office for Colonial Affairs for the Hon. General Ponsonby. Captain G. alsotook with him brief answers to the despatches brought to the Colonial Office on Friday night from the lonian Islands, by a messenger. It is reported that the anticipated duel was actually fought near Belford. Mr. Lambton was afterwards seen in hie carriage, in a posture which gave reason to believe that he had been wounded. His second, General Grey, set off for j.ondon immediately after. MALnoN.—During this election, Mr. Western, one of the county Members, sent Mr. Lennard, without the slightest application, a bank note of 10001. and a promise of 1001. a-day as long as the election lasted. It continued five days after, which made the gift in the %hole 1,5001. —Hampshire 7Ckgraph. We are not disposed to visit the mistakes of newspapers l with much severity, because we know that such mistakes are unavoidable ; but we arc obliged to take notice of one which appeared in a Morning Paper of yesterday, the effect of which might perhaps be to lead wine of our readers to suppose that the Morning. Herald had stolen a march upon us. We allude to the terms of the capitula tion of Claw, which appeared yesterday as an exclusive piece of intelligence in that pint. The journalist might have seem the capitulation, which he was at the pains to translate yesterday. in the British Press of May 20. A letter from Genoa mentions that the plague has made its appearance on beanie vessel which is under qua rantine at Varigriano, near Porto Venere, in the Gulf of Spt zzia. Buenos Ayres Papers, from the 29th of March to the 3tl of May, arrived yesterday. The General Congress, among other laws, have passed one for the consolidation of the internal debt of the State to the Ist of February, IWO. Another declares Buenos Ayres the capital of the•Repub lie. A third renders national, tinder the exclusive admi nistration of the President of the Republic, all the custom houses, and all kinds of duties on articles imported and ex ported. It appears that Potosi has been agitated hy mi litary insurrection, which was suppressed, and 21 indivi duals concerned in it, some of them sergeants and corpo_i .rals, were shot, by order of the local authorities. These disturbances will occur until South America is more set tled. The war with Brazil still continu, a ; and the Buenos Ayrcans boast of some naval triumphs. Dr. Manuel Garcia has been named Minister Plenipotentiary to Panama ; and D. Manuel Torres to the United States. The Brazilian commander at Monte Video issued orders, it appears, on the 13th of April, not to permit the English packet to take sntivri; or passengers to Buenes Ayres. WE.STJ:OIILAN D ELECTION.

The contest which had just been brought to a successful issue was a contest of principles, and not of Individuals ; and the county of Westmorland was the chosen arena in which they were to be tried. (Cheese.) Ile was happy at the result, which could not fail to redound to the honour of the county—he was happy at the success of the good old cause, which tended to give, if it were requisite, additional vigour and strength to the Established Church and King. (Great cheering.) He was far from wishing to express any feelings of exultation, and he hoped that what Ise said would not be considered as such. The Honour. able Gentleman had noticed a declaration which had been signed by a number of individuals, which declaration he had rather, roughly handled; and should the honourable Member, in the course of his remarks, make any harsh allusions, he (Lord L.) hoped that his friends would receive them with the same compla cency as he did.. (Cheers.) He sincerely hoped that, now th e election was over, they would all return to their homes, and renew with their neighbours that good fellowship which had been die. turbo' a few weeks before the commencement of the contest. His Lordship then thanked them for the honour they bad conferred upon hint, and withdrew amidst loud cheers. Colonel Lower's:a next presented himself, and was also very loudly cheered. The result of the poll, he said, had placed him above his opponent by a ve - y large majority. Indeed be felt *sures' it could ur sen de in no other manaenfrom the support which Itch el been pto nisei fr au all pots of the county, and the prediction wleels he had firmed I a I then been realized. (Cheers.) They had heard a great deal about mushroesns—indeed they were fo e s ome days the chief topic of speech front the hustings. The Hon. Member for Winchelsea belonged to a profession which was always engaged in making the worse appear the better cause, and vice versa. Thus it was that on the previous evening he had la boured so strenuously to prove that that which was right with them (the Blues) was wrong with us (the Yellows.) (Cheers and ' laughter.) When he applied the terns fungus to those mushrooms who had voted for the lion. Gentleman, he was well aware that mushrooms were a specits of fungus; but as the term scented to be objected to. he would, in lieu of it, call them real genuine Winny rings. (Laughter.) Ile then expressed his thanks to the electors for the support which they had given to him, and professed his readiness always to come forward at their call. The Gallant Cola net then withdraw amidst enthusiastic cheers from the Yellows, and marks ordistapprobation from the Blues. Mr. BROUGIIA3I then presented himself amidst the most en. thusimtic cheers front the Blues, and some hisses and groans from the Yellows. As soon as silence was obtained, he addressed the Meeting, and suite that if he had come forward at those contests for the representation of the county of Westntorland in order to promote any object of his own—if he stood there as a candidate, as men often do present themselves for the suffrages of electors, from a personal desire to sit in Parliament, not being, as he was, already returned for smother scat, or from personal Merest or fancied per. tonal interest—if lie had come forward trout seesaws of vanity or of ambition, or from motives of a sordid description—if he wished to exchange one sent for another, entering, for the mere gratifies. tion of his own ambition, Unia. for a county rather than" occupy another seat—if, in short, he had voluntarily COl/1C forward—if of his own free will he had been put into nomination eight years ago, and for his own selfi It purposes bud carried on an eight years contest, then indeed might he have stood before them feeling deep disap pointment, peradventure mortification, at the result. Ile knew and felt, and they knew, and their antagonists felt it too by that time, whatever some persons might have pretended, who had re present(d him as a elan in pursuit of personal aggrandisement— some who had sneered at and attacked hint in a more serious fashion for presuming to attempt placing himself amongst county Mesubers, possessing no right to claim a place amongst that distin guished; class, by either his station :3 the county or the country at large; whatever such persons might have represented, their better antagonists fur sense, discretion, and high station, knew well, and noise knew better than the Lord Lieutenant, and Ise and his two sons were aware that he (Mr. Brougham) never considered it as an object of interest or embition ; for he was the same in Parliament as if he sat for the county of IYestmorland ; Indeed he was just as conveniently situated, if not more so, than if he had been re. turned by the unanimous voice of the freeholders of Westmorland. (Cheers.) Although this might be known, ant) he believid it was known, it might naturally be asked why he bad originally stepped forward ? He had a purpose to serve in doing so, but that pur. pose was not Isis own. Ile had been put into nomination when he was at a disteuce of 260 miles distant from that place, not only ig norant that he was so put in nomination, but contrary to his de. clued resolution when the proposition was first made to hint.— His answer upon that occasion was, that he declined standing, and recommended the propounders to find another Candidate. (Cheers.) (Then lie was told, however, that he had been put in nomination, contrary to Isis expressed inclination and declared resolution, he was told at the tame time that such was the success of the nomina tion. that's° prevailing was the interest which the cause had ex cited, that such was the animaeon which hall been given to it by the name of' the humble individual who then addressed them, that if his name were withdrawn there could be no hope; there must be an end to all expectation of the emancipation of his native county. (Great cheers.) With the same disinclination to involve himself in such o contest, with the tame repugnance to come forward, lie found himself placed in such a situation that it was impossible for him longer to resist ; the appeal was irresistible, supported as it washy his own feelings and his principles of independence. (Cheers.) If he had followed the path dictated to hint by his own ronveni,n e, he would have sacrificed to that convenience the cause which he as well as they had at hoot (Cheers.) Therefore it was that he suffered his name to be continued, and he hastened shortly afterwards and appeared amongst them. (Cheers.) lie had carried on with them the first, tee second, and had stow brought to a close the third con test, but not the last.- (Immense cheering) And he appealed to every man who hail heard him, be he friend or be he he, whether any man who had made this en object of his own seeking—whether any man who had volunteered instead of being I dragged into the contest—whether any man who had volun. Leered widest the advice or reluctant friends—whether any such man could have stood more firmly, or could have persevered more strenuously, or be later in retiring than lie was himself, although he had been the last inste:ul of being the first to come forward to contest the representation of the county Thus firm anti strenuous they would find him to the end. and thus also would their opponents find hint (cheers)—thus wettnl they es. perienee him until the final consutumatien was wrought out. (Cheers.) Ile would stand with them again and again (tremen dous cheering), smiling with Indifference, it' not with contempt. at those who pretended to think that he did so In order to undtetint self a county Member, fur they knew as well as he did that he was actuated by any other rather than such a felling. liis ° him was to make old Westmorland a county and not n borough. (Cheers.) It was therefore that he agreed with the Noble Lied who first ad. dressed them, in declaring, as he professed to do, dust the cause was not one of persona but of principles ; not of persons certainly, so far as they (the Blues) were concerned, but of principles. It was not a content of persons either upon their side (the Yellows), he ass bound in candour and charity to believe, but of principles also ; but though bound in candour and charity to believe, he confouse that lie telt extremely at a loss to conceive what those principles were which were involved upon their pert, though he could well discern who and what were the persona. The persons and cause were the Lord Lieutenant and his family. ane that hereditary ambition which had been heeded down to Lord Lonadale, undiminished, from his immediate and well-remembertd predecessor, and which, having descended to the Noble Lend then present, would, doubtless, be maintained with, if not increased, at least with undiminished pertinacity. (Cheers.) ‘l'llat the prin. ciples were which they usaintnined, or what the general grounds upon which they stood, it was impossible by guessing to devise. Was it upon the principle that property ought to have a predomi nating weight in elections foram county ? (n No, no. no," from a person in the crowd.) Yes; he admitted that it should be so— property ought to have its influence. The test of the elective quali. Simeon was property,snd by law property was closely connected with I he elective franchise. Hut he s ishet. to ask if there was no lin:puny in counties but thta which lay in large enamel of thousands on thomara a year? Were there no large properties on the side of the Blue.. Were they to be told that there was no high blood on their when they mull reckon amongst their friends the Sackvilles, tl; Tuftons, the Howard', and the Cliffinds ? lie would cont eie that they had as high blued and as large properties in the Kezid d ward as the Lord Lieutenant and his adherents could para.:, against them. But surely if one man, with 30,000 f. a year, haii right to possess some weight in the representation of the county, I thousand persons. with 3lte a year each, hail as good a right to e y e ercise the same influence in choosing their own Member of Pane. ment. lie had placed the argument thus, leaving out of view alto. gether the (*Ward estates. and those of others of his friends, two or which, one in the Kendal and the other in the East Ward, Ito.; equal to if not greater than that of the Lord Lieutenant. Peter; those large properties then entirely out of view, and admitting tie, property ought to have weightlin a county election, he stood ther. upon the property of the freeholders--of the real resident free: holders of the county. (Cheers. j On the behalf or those te a holders lie stood there to struggle against the overbearing, cor e weening, and. it' they would suffer it to be so, overwhelming a ns , tocracy of rank, wealth, and patrorage. ((heat cheering.) B e , fore they separated lie thought it was but justice to a cause which was more general, though not more sacred than their own, to take care that no addition should be made to the unfavourable impre es sion which would be sought to be excited against it 'ny their tone porary defeat. They had not been defeated by the cry of "N o Popery." (Cheers.) The came' of their failure on that °evasive were known to them all. and they were all swam that those mos were in no way coneeected with the Catholic Question. (Cheers.) He held in his hand a lea of names which bad been signed to a de. cleration of which they had heard much from the hustings; and le found, upon me-folly examining the state of the p II up to lag night, that of the neines signed to that declaration thirty-one had refused to vote against the Blue cause (cheers), entwithstandin g the declaration which they were induced to sign. He found the write. although their names were there also, had totwithetanda a pieced them on the poll-book by voting for him (Mr. liroughann. Some persons yesterday asked for the names of those persons, anti he would the n rea d t h em to t h em .

A rxonget others. William Atkinson and William Ilorne had never I signed tl,at dgelaistion, nor had they given any authority for having their names affixed to it. (Great cheers.) lie found that severe others were similarly situated, and some had been told and made to believe that it was merely a Catholic petition, and had nothing t o all to du with the election. (Cheers.) Of these Richard Eduomeon. of Clibum, was one ; John Joy, of Crosby, was another; and John Bewsiser, of Pooley, another ; all of whom, with others, were lad to believe that it was a petition against the Catholic (aloe tion, and that it had nothing to do with the election. (Cheers I Be that ['Wit might, there were certainly a good many of them who had voted against hint—about as many as those he had mo. tinned—between 30 and 40; but that all or any of them vie ti against him on the ground of the Catholic Question he should le extremely slow to believe, unless he had better evidence of the fat than merely that delaration. His reasons were theoc- e in thee cases where they had been able to trace real motives or probeEe causes for this change of opinion, it was as much connected wee the Pope or the Catholic Question as it was with the Emperor ..1 China or the Great Mogul. (Cheers. and • laugh.) He wool:, for instance, ask his excellent friend, George Steel, of Neebe who voted for hint upon a former occasion, whether he farmed under the Yellows? (A laugh.) He (31raBroughano believed he slid not, but he knew very well that he dal roe, (a laugh), and under the family of the Lowthers themselves, i:' his information was correct; tout, at all events, under the Yellows. Cheers.) What, he would Ask. had the vote of John Bewsher, of Pooley, to do with the Pope ? Just as much as it had to do with the Great Mogul or the Emperor of Japan. (A laugh.) Let any man look sharply in the neighbourhood of Pooley for the next ail months, and he would perceive a greafhouse bending there. Now he should be greatly surprised if Mr. John Bewsher, of P. o'er, was not employed in the building of that house. A Yellow gentle. moth was the prnprietor, and he would of course employ his friend Bewsher. who was a carpenter, in the building of it; or if suet should turn out not to be the case, he could only say that John Bewsher would be the worst used man in England or in Europe. be he Catholic or be he Protestant. (Tremendous cheers, wee roars of laughter.) Ile deeply regretted perceiving upon that lies and at the head of it, the names of three Reverend Clergymen of the Church of England. They pretended to call upon all men, of whatever religions denomination, Churchmen, Methodists, art Dissenters, to join in that declaration. (A person in the crowd cried out " Milner") No, Mr. Milner was never on their aide, and PO far he was more consistent than those to whom he alluded. But he would ask, bad that call been answered? Did they pewee! the name of any Clergyman of any other persuasion than t h at o f the Established Chbrch attached to that declaration ? Not a single one. (Cheers.) In vain had they appealed to the Dissenters anti to the Methodists--the honour or the odium was exclusively 'heir own. (Cheers.) It might certainly brand perhaps underiaahe that those Reverend Clergymen might have been infleerce I it their revolution of sentiment towards himself by a consciention alarm at Popery. It might be so; and when one perceived the names of respectable persons attached to such a declaration, he wag In some measure bound to assume that it contained their real sentimente. He knew, however, that one of these respecable gentlemen avowed, that his patron being dead, he was to longer under any obligation to support the Blues. kor his own part, he could not help expecting that the Ree. Gentleman would look out for ono. ther patron who was not a Blue,to whom his gratitude would be jest as lasting as he found his patronage serviceable or convenient. Ano. Cher of these flevererd persons laboured under a great misfortune, having for a patron a gendetuan who had no better living to Mtn him than ghat which he already possessed. It would eertairly be extremely useful if the gentleman close by him (Mr. Cruektehorp) who had given that reverned Gentleman one living, had still another and a batter in reserve, and it was much to be regrets that such was not the ewe. (Cheers, and a laugh.) With respect to the third of these Reverend leaders of the dissentients on tint occasion, he could not help thinking, that as his memory had metered so marvellously short, his judgment must also he in ern as to his real motives for changing his opinions with respect to hr Blue cause. That Reverend Gentleman (the Rev, ale. Adam. thwaite, of Winton) in a speech which he had made last Saturday morning —OTT-Lech which:was not more zealous against thelilues than one which he had matte in their favmersome years aeo at Brough— • speech equally as nble and as ardert —in the speech if Saturday last, however, he avowed that his reason for sup. porting him (31r. Brougham) not the former occasion seas, the ptrt he had powerfully and zealously taken in the defence of her la e :Majesty. Now, it was very seange that the memory of the R.v. fie itleman should be so marvellously short, but that it was so this are erticn of his proved, for a mere refereece to d sees must show that such could not hare been his reason for favenring him (Mr. Brougheni) with his support. • Ile would just ad t tin who,heard him, to consider whether, on the evening wheel that Rev. Gentleman made that, which he called MOO zealous, but which his opponents called reo tit t mperdte p e h, at Broueh, on behalf of the 11111 CM—that 'peeve which, so tar as he mei hear, far he was inside the window, and it was raker late in tits evening, was as remarkable for talent as for the vehemerce with which it was utter:se - and which was by no means misappropriate t this period of the evening.' (A laugh). ' Ile would ask them to consider whether it was possible that the support which he then promised to hint (Mr. Breughem) could have any reference to the part which he had subsequently, for it was subsequently. taken in the defence of her late Majesty. The Queen came to England is June, 1820, and the speech to which he had just drawn their attention was made at Brough, in Marsh, 18111. (Imtrenee laughter, and cheers). What was still more extraordinary was that there was • not a single acted said about the Queen in Westmodand; not a word even whispered for years and years before, but them was at that time a great deal sohl about " No Popery," and the Catholic Question (great cheering), and not far from the place where he thee stood. h ere had beet persons who at the very beginning of the contest were not deterred from avowing theirmoncipies, as connected with that great ques tion. What it' a full year before the Rev. Gentleman made that speech at Brough—if more than a year before he spoke, and can vassed, and wrote for the Blues, some speaker on his (Mr. Broug ham's) aide had spoken from Miss Ritson's window, and said, "1 fear that some of you object to us tor the opinion which we eater , tain favourable to the Catholic question." Now, I freely and fairly declare to you, that Clint is a subject which admits of norm. promise—it is a question from which I will never dream of flinch'. mg; but I will hold my opinions upon it unmitigated and un. swerving, (yen though by so doing I hoe the r -presentation o f rite county of Westmorland. (Cheers.) What if that speech hoed beet made by himself, in the presznee of the Rev. Gentleman Waled - , or, at all events, in the presence of his near neighbours, who might have informed him. It had been printed in every newspaper that he rend, for it was erinted in every paper that was printed at all, If, prior to this, the Queen's name had not been even whispered, nor his caste as her defender ever thought et talked of—it' hearing ned knowing all this, and not knowing aat thing of the Queen, for he could not, tiniest: he was gifted weie second sight, the Reverend Gentlemen should have cane-arts) and voted for the Blues—of what value, then, was floe mome which he alleged for abandoning that came, owing to Iris feat' of Popery, and because he thought the Church in danger! ((treat cheering.) lie would then go no further in quest 0 : stews motives, but he would just observe, that there were pen sons who might be mistaken in matters which ought to be withea their own knowledge ; and how much more linble might such ma sons be to mistake their own feelings, which it was more difficult to analize, particularly when the casuistry of self-love taught then to seek a colouring for conduct which was bottomed ill self-interesa (Cheers.) All this time those persons were mistaken ; for whit• everthcy might think, Popery had as little to eo with their change of opinion as the Great Mogul. Let those individuals who had pub lished themselves in that decimation be watched by their neigh hours. If none of theM gained anything for what they had done—ti no hymen received `favours—if no clergyman promotion—no trade , titan incrensed employment—if his jobs did not multiply front the Yellows—if the Reverend Clergyman lingered on upon the *re'a livings, and tooted none of the sweets of prefermmt, he weull then give them leave to say that his charge way groundless,. a nd that his suspicions as to the causes of their change of 'mown were unfounded, and that they had changed from principle, sad not from any interested motive. But he of them who st mat hereafter take inert-meta took it at his pet il—ra the greatest of t!I perils to an honourable men—the peril of his reputation, whim must inevitably suffer if lie accepts preferment. (Much cheent(-1 Ile had now brought to a close all the remarks, or nearly all, which he then& it his duty to make to them upon that occasion. He had already acrid, that their cause was not confined to the count) 'a
