WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 11, 1852. Satisfactory and even conclusive as the speech of the PRIME MINISTER, in reference to the Foreign Secre tary, is supposed to be by the adherents of the former statesman, we are, nevertheless, convinced that it will be the unguis in ulcere to his Govern ment. There are admissions in that speech such as should never have fallen from the lips of the First Lord of the Treasury—admissions degrading the Chief Secretaries of State to the position of mere clerks and under-writers to the SOVEREIGN. The people of England will never listen again, with other feelings than those of unmitigated derision, to any reference that can be made in future to the courage of Lord JOHN RUSSELL as an administrator. His reputation for political audacity has gone by as irrevocably as his popularity. We should as readily look for its revival, as we should have expected, at any former period, to have wit nessed the actual realization of the celebrated witti cism of SIDNEY SMITH—to have seen the PREMIER building another St. Paul's Cathedral, operating for the stone, or taking the command of the Channel fleet. The blundering of the Noble Lord, as the leader of an Administration, must assuredly have long since dissipated any notion that might hitherto have been entertained in regard to the successful issue of his possible attempts as admiral, as lithoto mist, or as architect. Judging from his conduct as Chief Minister of the Crown, it would not be very difficult to conjecture the result of his labours in any one of those eccentric departments. Our flag might have braved another " thousand years the battle and the breeze," but its glory could never by any chance have survived the influence of Lord JOHN RussaLes tactics. The duplicate of St. Paul's must, in like manner, have turned out under his hand such an egregious architectural monstrosity as to have carried anguish to the ghost of Sir CHRISTOPHER WREN, and to have endangered the life of Mr. WELBY PUGIN by a paroxysm of convulsions. As for the surgical expe riment—Goh help the unlucky victim of calculus who should fall under the clutches of any such unskilful operator ! After the last five or six years' adminis tration we must never hear again of Lord JOHN'S valour as a politician. Valour? The valour of PAROLEES ! Why, there has been scarcely an act of his since the period of his entrance upon office which has not been that of legislative poltroonery, guided by a cringing subserviency to the popular clamour of the hour. And then his "Letters JOHN may be a dull bey, it is true, but then he has " stuck to his letters" with a tenacity only equalled by that revealed by himself and his colleagues in ad hering to Place. To say nothing of any other document, it is only necessary to lock to his famous communication to Lord PALMERSTON, dated the .14th of last December, to comprehend the only kind of temerity upon which (on paper) Lord JOHN RUSSELL has adventured. So entirely has the PRIME MI NISTER acted in these matters from pique, from pas. sion, and from prejudice, so invariably has he set aside considerations of principle and proceeded only upon considerations of precipitancy, that he is com• pelted to stumble into all kinds of contradictory di lemmas in the course -of his Parliamentary expla- nations. An illustration of the inconsistencies into which the PRIME MINISTER has been forced by bis avoid ance of any uniform policy and his subsequent en deavours to clear himself from responsi bility, was afforded in a rather remarkable manner in the course of the discussions of Monday evening. In answer to an inquiry from the Hon. Member for Macclesfield, Lord JOHN RUSSELL ad mitted that Earl GREY'S very extraordinary dispatch condemnatory of Sir HARRY SMITH was not sub mitted to the QUEEN prior to its being forwarded to its destination ! Now, how in the name of Heaven can such an admission as this tally with the principles laid down by the PRIME MINISTER on the night of the 3d instant, to the effect that documents of any im portance must be transmitted in the first instance to her MAJESTY, for the purpose of formally receiving her MAJESTY'S approval ? Can the course pursued with impunity by Earl GREY in the removal of a gallant old officer like his Excellency Sir HARRY SMITH, be viewed as in any way consistent with the treatment experienced by Viscount PALMERSTON, upon the trumpery plea of a private conversation with M. WaLEwstu, the French Ambassador ? The thing is absurd and preposterous. Here is a distin guished soldier, whose conduct during the late dis turbance in liafirland has been not only declared void of all culpability, but has even been com mended in the strongest language by his Grace the Duke of WELLINGTON—(nueIy a much better judge in such matters than Earl GREY !) —here is this veteran commander, we say, degraded from his post as Governor of the Cape Colony, and in sulted by terms of reproach, seldom if ever before addressed to either civil or military representative of the SOVEREIGN, and the document in which all this is done, is forwarded by the Colonial Secretary to its destination without its being previously placed under the eyes of her Majesty the QUEEN ! Although the PRIME MINISTER declared, only as recently as the 3d inst., that dispatches of importance must be laid in the first instance before the SOVEREIGN! Although Lord Panalm..ros was actually dismissed in December for not having consulted her MAJESTY before presuming to express an opinion in the course of a private con versation S Although, we repeat, the late Foreign Secretary was turned out of office for daring to say so-and-so, of his own accord, to M. WALEWSEI upon the occasion of a private interview—the Colonial Secretary may at his pleasure, and without previ ously submittin g th e d o cument to his SOVEREIGN, for ward to Sir HARRY SMITH a dispatch couched in words of such unwarrantable severity that it alone, if nothin g e l se, would ha ve been su ffi cient to bring discredit upon her MAJESTY' Government. 0 miseras homi nurn 'mutes oh ectora caw ! Alas! for the justi ce of Lord JOHN R USSELL'S P policy when he blunders, himself, into such very lamentable displays of inc ons i stency They cannot speedily be forgotten. They cannot be forgotten , we believe, so long — those Noble Lord inscribed upon the i nt_ a name r ema i ns anna l s i n which it is endmeaevolinistedt Minister of or shift E n t r land, Lord JOH N RUSSELL e a l rea dy recorded that, when Prime responsibilities of the Government from his own head to that of a woman—a QUEEN, it is true, but still, remember ! a woman—in order e to s creen himself otherwise inevitable on th • from the odium ot s. missal of Lord PALMERSTON. MADAME CELESTE.—The Cincinnati papers are loud in the praise of this accomplished artiste, and notwith standing the streets ale covered with snow and the thermo meter 15 degrees below zero, throngs overflow the theatre every night. But such has been the case throughout the Union. An interesting anecdote occurred to this lady at Cincinnati. Many years ago, a boy of fourteen years of age, a native of this city, asked her to sit for her full-length por trait, in the French Spy, the size of life ; she did so, and from its striking resemblance and her great popularity, it brought him into considerable notice. That bov is now the great sculptor, Power, who sculptured the Greek Slave, and on her entering the theatre the other day, she saw this very portrait decorating the grand entrance, having been purchased on Friday evening, and placed there by the proprietors. Another honour has been conferred on Madame Celeste—the Art Union having ob. r o e f quested her to sit for her portrait, to be added, with that reliefof • Kossuth, to the National Gallery of Cincinnati, where rained leave to introduce a Bill for t he suitors there are The SouciTon-GsNELeAL, of a serieso f more than 500 works of art. She appears at New in the Court of Chancery, the first onOrleans on the 23d inst., and then revisits the various cities hie reform, which are her Way home to this country, where she may be expected sures f or l ega l and equitable to to arrive in the autumngladden the heartsofthe • i , to . audience be brought forward during the present session.

It is true that each might be of comparatively small amount, but they were repeated usque ad nauseam, and under the most frivolous pretexts, and they afforded the greatest opportunities for fraud, either by inducing the officers, who were to appropriate the produce to their own private advantage, to interpose delays and multiply vain and unnecessary forms in order to increase their own profits, or, if bound to account therefor to a general fund, to make untrue returns, with the most perfect certainty that their falsehoods could not be detected, there being no ade quate check. On every ground, then, of justice and expediency, the •ile system should be totally and unconditionally abolished; the nation should strive to free itself from the disgrace to which it has been subjected for so many successive ages. It should no longer appear as if the nation was oiling justice. In return for various lia bilities assumed by every subject, who is bound to contribute his proportion of the national expenditure for the liquidation of the public liabilities and the maintenance of the public establishments, he is sup posed to receive full protection for person and pro perty. If, however, his rights are unjustly withheld or his property assailed, he can neither seek restitution or defend his possession without being mulcted of enormous sums ; many toll-bars are erected on the way, through which none can travel without satisfying the exorbitant demands of the keepers—demands that, in many instances, operate as a practical denial of jus tice, and which materially retard, if they do not alto gether prevent, the adoption of those beneficial altera tions which would diminish the expenditure—suffi ciently onerous under the most favourable terms—by the abolition of many useless forms and many unne cessary proceedings. Legal reformers have long deplored this vicious and indefensible system. Lords CAMPBELL and BROUG HAM have at all times denounced the monster grievance, and endeavoured to provide an adequate remedy, and they are still ready to lend their assist ance to its abrogation. The late Lord LANGDALE, too, spoke out clearly and distinctly. In the evidence of that lamented nobleman before the Select Com mittee of the House of Commons, we find the follow ing passage, which places the matter in its true light :—" I have long bee❑ of opinion that the courts and offices of law, so far as they depend on the orga nization, establishment, and management of officers, ought to be treated like every other important de partment of Government, and be paid by, and kept under the superintendence and control of Govern ment. The establishment is maintained for the benefit not only of the particular persons who require remedies for the wrongs they have endured, but also for the common benefit and security of all who live under the protection of the law. . . I should be very glad if the House of Commons could be pre vailed upon to consent to it, but I fear the more gene ral opinion now prevailing is, that it is useful to make litigation expensive." Now the present Bill does not strike at the root of the vicious system. There is some charm about what are termed "vested interests" that induces per sons in authority to treat them, however unjustifi able, with the utmost leniency. Fees are not to be altogether abolished, many will still be retained, but others will be struck off, and some sinecure and un necessary offices got rid of, so that there will be savings effected to the extent of about 80,000/. per annum, or, in other words, the Suitors Fee Fund, which heretofore produced about 180,0001. per annum, will be reduced to about 100,0001. Some estimate of the vexatious character of these proceedings may be formed when we have it on the authority of the SOLICITOR-GENERAL that the number of payments by which this large sum was collected were no less than 330,000. We may, therefore, safely assume that there were 330,000 six-and-eightpences added to the amount, or 110,0001. sterling charged for at tendances to make these petty disbursements. This would make the sums extracted from the suitors amount to no less than 290,0001. sterling per annum; and yet, although the solicitors receive so large a per-tentage, we venture to say that, if the body were canvassed, a large majority would be found in favour of the abolition of the fee system. The ►SOLICITOR GENERAL referred to one cause which afforded a fit ting illustration of the system. The fees in that case amounted to 298/., collected by 392 different pay ments. There were 90 officers in receipt of these fees, 90 persons to be applied to in paying them, and 50 of the number did not account for them on affi davit, the fees being received by one person, and the affidavit made by his superior ojicer, wh• only stated that he "believed" the account to be correct!! The " credulity" of the party swearing might be very great ; and as there would be no mode of punishing a mistake, we cannot conceive that the most efficient mode is adopted of protecting the public from frauds of a very grave description, and to a very serious amount. Th e most valuable feature of the Bill is that the officers are henceforward to be paid by salaries—the charge upon suitors still retained collected by stamps, so that there will be no opening for fraud ; and not subjecting the parties to the necessity of applying at so many different of f ices. The urgent recommenda tion of the Committee in this respect is thus to be carried into execution. We regret that a substitute in any shape is to be imposed—that the sound prin ciple enunciated by the SOLICITOR-GENERAL, that it is not right "to tax the suitors with the maintenance of the Court—to oblige those who had the misfortune to be involved in litigation to maintain the judicial system," is not to be fully carried out. There will be a considerable surplus in the hands of the CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER this year, and we really do not know of any application of a portion thereof that would be more beneficial to the nation. We trust, then, that some Financial Reformer will, during the progress of the measure, take the opinion of the House on the expediency of providing for all the expenses of the Court from the Consolidated Fund, and thus freeing the road to the Temple of TEEMS from the many disgraceful impediments that have heretofore obstructed the way. The necessity of taking office copies is also to be done away with, by which a saving of 28,0001. per annum will be effected—a system which, in the lan guage of the Honourable and Learned Gentleman, " led to the unnecessary_ multiplication of copies," and to the payment of "dispatch money." The salaries of the Lord Chanceltor, Lords Justices, and two Vice-Chancellors, amounting also to 28,0001. per annum, are to be transferred from the " Suitors' Fund" to the Consolidated Fund, and many useless officers are to be abolished, while others are to be materially reduced in emolument. On the whole, although, as we have already stated, the Bill does not go to the full extent of our wishes, it cannot be denied that it will effect a vast improvement on the existing system ; and as it lets in the sharp end of the wedge, we hope and believe that it will but prove the forerunner of other and more extensive measures of real reform.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The s ales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 7,000 bales, including 500 American and 500 Surat for export, and 500 American and 1,000 Surat were taken on speculation. The market closed heavily, with American below middling 1-16 d. cheaper, whilst those above were fully as dear as previously. Surats 1-16 d. higher, but other aorta were without alteration. The sales consisted of about 4,500 bales American, 160 Pernam and Maranham at qd. to sirl., 70 Bahia 41d. to 44d., 100 Egyptian 6d. to 9d., 2,000 Suratpd.ito 4d., and:so Sea Island at 13d. to 18d.— The Railway Share Market ruled quiet, and closed with out any material alteration to notice. The indigo sales, as we are informed by Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury, consist of 14,514 chests; of which 10,904 are Bengal, Oude, &e., 1,092 Madras, and 593 Kurpah, besides parcels in second hands. The qualities of Bengal are about two-thirds good and fine, and one-third mid. and ord; the Madras three-fourths ordinary, one-fourth mid, and good, with a small proportion of fine; the Kurpah one-third good and fine, and two-thirds, mid and ordinary; the Binila patam middling and ordinary; s he Oude mostly ordinary. After the announcement of 801 chests withdrawn, the sale opened with a parcel of good and fine Bengal of the mark fi—Aß and Co., which mostly sold with mo derate spirit at a reduction upon last October rates of 3d. per lb. for the finer qualities, and 2d. per lb. for the middling and consuming sorts; which rates have ruled throughout the day. No Madras or Kurpah has yet passed sale. There was but a limited attendance both of foreign and home buyers. 1,022 chests passed yesterday, of which 205 were withdrawn, 307 bought in, and 510 sold. The West India advices lately to hand went very fully into the question of immigration, and the Trinidad papers received by the late mails are especially much o,ccupied in discussing the subject, and their reports of the legislative proceedings at Port of Spain show the question to be adjudged in the highest quarters one of the greatest importance to the welfare of the colony. Lord Harris and the Council of Go vernment have arrived at the conclusion that immi grants from India and China ought still to be sought at all reasonable hazards and cost; while a portion of the press abjures both of those courses, and uncondi tionally declares that the United States is the sole, pro per, and practicable country from which immigrants can be procured for the island. The accounts before us go on to state that " a reason why we believe it unnecessar) to impose the condition of providing free return passages for immigrants intro duced into these colonies is, that in the majority of cases the best of the immigrants, if left to provide the passage money, their own resources, would scarcely choose to return in a proportion exceeding one in ten. With regard to the Chinese, who have been pretty ex tensively tried in this respect, this position is considered proved, and is advanced as an unquestionable fact in support of the condition attached tq Mr. Loch's re solution. And whether in Trinidad, or Dame rarara, or Jamaica, we have never heard of, or seen a single instance of an emigrant, whether Afri can, East India, or Portuguese, who, having m a d e a little money, has chosen to spend a portion of it for a passage back to his native land. We have heard of many to the contrary, however, and can point to a few in Jamaica, which, we have not the slight est doubt, a little examination would enable us to increase. That the imposition of such a condi tion on the colonies is a grievous oppression, Jamaica is at this moment in course of experiencing, the Legisla ture having been called on during the present session to raise some 25,0001, to provide for return passages which may be demanded during the present year! And Trinidad is in a similar predicament, having some 2,200 coolies, who would be entitled to return passages at various periods during the coming crop.' " The rates at which Bills of Exchange were yesterday negotiated were folly as high as those of Friday last. Paris, 90 days, was taken at 25 424 to 474, Antwerp at 25 424 to 474, also Trieste at 12 35 to 40, and Ham burgh at 13 10i to f f . _ _ _ The Stock Market, though very quiet, has been par ticularly firm, and an advance has occurred of another per cent. Consols have been 96! for Transfer, and 96i to 97 for Account. The New Three -and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been up to 98 and 99, and the Three per Cents. to 97/ 1. This is pay day " and the differences are being promptly liquidated. Exchequer-bills have been quoted 61s, to 635., and India Bonds 70s. to 71s. premium, There has been a bargain in South Sea Stock at 107 f. Bank Stock is worth 216 i to 217. The feature in the Foreign Stock Market is a reaction in Mexican Bonds of to per cent., the opening prices having been 321 while the present rates are only 32i 1. The mere realization of profits is said to be the cause, as Mr. Falconnet, at his interview with the Committee yesterday, mentioned among other gratifying circumstances the desire of the Mexican Government to provide for a dividend in ad vance henceforth, so as to prevent failure of payment when due. The customs' inceme being derived from duties for which long credit is given, does nut come in sufficiently early, unless the Government starts with a surplus in hand. Rumours have been circulated of an intended now loan, but there is not, we believe, - he slightest foundation for this. Brazilian New Bonds have been at 931 6 Grenada Old Stock is steady at 17i, and the Deferred at 61, but with very little doing. Venezuela Stock is worth 35. Sar dinian Bonds are at Bi. French Five per Cents. are at 103, with the Exchange at 2k 30. Belgian Four-and-a-half per Cents. are worth el, and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 59. The Railway Share Market is higher, and there have been moderate purchases. Gold Mines continue rather heavy, in consequence of the multiplicity of new schemes, the best only of which get their deposits paid. __ _ •• ••• Ditto Account, March 11 QUARTER TO THERE. 961 ... 96i if ONE PRICES OF BRITISH FUNDS O'CLOCK Bank Stook 3 do, Cent.

The attendance of buyers being Mall, the amount of business doing was limited, yet a clearance of the best qualities was speedily effected, at prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday. The value of low and middling kinds was almost nominal. The imports of Foreign Wheat have been confined to 720 quarters. Most descriptions were in steady, though by no means active request, at full currencies. In floating cargoes nest to nothing doing. We were scantily supplied with boa English and Foreign Barley, which sold at full cur rencies. Malt—the show of which was moderate— moved off slowly, at late rates. The Oat trade was firm, but no actual advance took place in the quotations. The supply of English was tolerably good. Not the slightest change took place in the value of either Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, or Flour. sAKIVALS THIS WEEK. Malt. Oats.
