The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,000 bales, all to the trade. Shares were dull and the opportunity seemed favourable to purchase good railway stock at low prices. There is not much information in the American papers which came to hand this morning, in addition to that given in another part of The Sun. The news is satisfactory. We have a firmer market for Stocks to-day, but the principal busi ness is in the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., which have touched 98% N. Bank Stock is steady, at 208 N . Consols have advanced to 96 1 ,E for transfer next week, and to 96% % for time. The "glorious" majetity of 97 has done it all. Exchequer-bills are quiet, at 355. to 375. premium. In the Foreign Market Spanish Bonds are flat, at 26 for the Five per Cents.; Three per Cents., however, being relatively firmer. Portuguese Four per Cent. Stock is at 58 ; Mexican have advanced to 31%; Grenada are 22%; Dutch Two and a Half per Cents. have been 59% %. Shares look rather better this morning, but with only a small business doing. Brighton have been 65% ; and Staines and Rich mond have been run down to 1 4 %. French shares are in request. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. (From the Official List.)

The great division took place last night, or rather this morning early. The numbers were announced at a quarter after three o'clock, and within half an hour of that time the Morning Edition of The Sun, containing a full report of the debate and the division, was dispatched by special trains to all parts of the kingdom. To the North, - by a special engine on the Birmingham line—to the West, by special engine along the Great Western line—to Norwich and the East by special engine along the Eastern counties line. The instant the diviaien was announced, the result was dispatched by horse, express, to - The Sun office—set in type, and the papers containing the announcement and a full report of the debate, were printed by steam-machine, dispatched by horse expresses to the termini of the several railways, and sent on by special engines within less than half an hour. We had made preparations for the last fortnight to express the division to all parts of the kingdom within halt - an hour of the time of its announcement, and we are happy to say that all our arrangements suc ceeded and that on every line our expresses were dispatched so as to save the special engine (for after a quarter before four o'clock in the morning the railway companies will not permit special engines to run) which we believe is more than any of our contemporaries have been able to accomplish. Some of them may have saved one particular line, but none of them have saved all. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY) COVENT-GARDEN.

The Marquis of WORCESTER took the oaths and his seat for Gloucestershire, in the room of the Hon. F. CHARTERIS. Lord CLIVE moved the second reading of the Shropshire Union Railway and Canal Bill (Chester and Wolverhampton • Mr. THORNELY moved; as an amendment, that the Bill be read a second time that day silt months. After a short dis cussion, the Noble Member withdrew his motion, and the Bill was read a second' time, and ordered to be committed. •- Several petitions were presented for and against the Gt,vern meat measures of free trade. Several railway Bills were read a second time and ordered to be committed. Mr. J. O'CONNELL rose to defend himself froin ari attack which had been made upon him, on-account of his having• withdrawn a motion of which he had given notice, and ex plained his reason for having done so. After a few words from Sir R. INGLIS the subject dropped: • In answer to .Colonel SIBTHORP, it was stated by Sir R., PEEL that the only office actually vacant was that of Chief Commissioner of Woods and Forests: Two of the Commissioners of the Treasury had tendered their resig- - nations, which would be accepted, and the offices would be filled up; but in the meantime those gentlemen continued to perform the duties of the offices. The Right Hon. Gentlemen also indulged in some good-humoured satire in relation to the observations of the Gallant Officer, .in the absence from the House of Lord LINCOLN, for whose absence the Gallant Colonel was more responsible than he, inasmuch as his tenants had voted against him. He admitted that the Secretary for the Colonies was not a member of the House, but it would be an infringement of the prerogative of that House to render it necessary for all Members of the Government to be in Parliament. But he had no hesitation in saying that his reason for depriving himself of the set., vices of those gentlemen in Parliament was the faith.,he had in the justice of the measures proposed by the Government, and in the wisdom of Parliament. Mr: FERRAND then - rose to defend himself against the at tacks which. had been made upon him. The H. n. and Learned Member for Bath 'ought not to complain of per sonalities, for he had thrown down the Times newspaper on the floor of the House, and recommended gentlemen to horsewhip a man his superior in every respect. The Honourable Member for Durham had stated that all that he (Mr. Ferrand) bad said with regard to Mr. Wilson was utterly untrue. The Hon. Member had put words into his mouth which were untrue. Helad never said that Mr. WILSON was part of the deputation that had waited on the Government, but that Mr. WILSON• had presided over a meeting at which a deputation was appointed; and he had received a letter from Mr. S. BENINGTON stating the fact, and he was prepared to adhere to the statement which he had made. There had been meetings in Lan cashire recently, to state that statements made by the Honourable Member in relation to the Ten Hours' Bill were without foundation. He then defended the statement which he had made with regard to the condition of the weavers of Bolton, and to the conduct of Messrs. Ashworth. He would assure the Noble Lord, the Member for the West Riding, that he (Mr. Ferrand) was justified in stating what he had stated with regard to petitions, and it was time the House took up the question as to the manner in which petitions had been forged, and which he was prepared to prove before a Committee. Mr. C. BERKELEY couldcorroborate the statement as to the manufacture of petitions. He held in his hand a petition purporting to come from Cheltenham, but it bore the post mark of Manchester, and on inquiry at Cheltenham he found that several of the namesliad been forged; although perhaps the names of some twenty ten-pounders might be genuine. He had always supported free-trade measures, but he scorned to support it, by such means, - and on Monday he should bring forward a motion for a Committee to investigate this case as a breach of pri vilege, and he called upon the members of the Anti-Corn law Leage to support his motion. Mr. BRIGHT would be glad to second the motion, and he trusted the fullest inquiry would be gone into. With re gard to the statement of the Hon. Member for Knaresborough with regard to Mr. Wilson, he was prepared to show that every portion of that statement was unfounded. He had a letter from Mr. RAWSON, whose name was men tioned by the Honourable Member for Knaresborough, stat ing that Mr. WirsoN had neither convened nor presided over such a meeting; that no deputation had been ap pointed; and that he (Mr. RAwsoN) and two others had waiteh on the Premier to represent that, as wheat was the raw material from which starch was made, it would be unjust to remove the duty from foreign starch, unless the duty was also removed from foreign wheat. The Hon. Member had also made statements relating to Mr. Winsene and Mr. RAWSON which he could not stand by. He had made statements at a meeting which was reported in the Morning Post. He had said that he would stand by that report, but when asked to admit the truth of that re port, he said he would give a guarantee to the Morning Post, and on the editor of that paper being applied to, he pleaded it was hard that he should be prosecuted for a faithful report, and stated that the Hon. Member had not given diem a guarantee, and the League, which conducted their agitation by means of public discussion, would be ashamed of prosecuting a newspaper for giving a, faithful report of a speech. He concluded by cating that, to quote the words of a resolution of that House, the statements of the Hon. Gentleman were untrue and calum nious. Dr. BOWRING then denied the statements of the Hon. Mem ber with regard to the alleged cruelty of Mr. H. Ashworth. Mr. ROEBUCK was justified in making the statement he bad laSt•riight. It was the duty of the Hon. Member to have been in his 'place to have heard any defence which . those who had been attacked might be disposed to make. The lion. Gentleman had alluded to his gonduct, but it had never been his misfortune to be branded by a resolution of the House of Commons as having been guilty of an unfounded calumny. The Hon. Gentleman said he believed a resolu tion of a public meeting, and he (Mr. ROEBUCK) believed the unanimous decision of the House of Commons ; and as long as that resolution remained, he should consder any statement of the Hon. Member as utterly worthless, and that was his answer to the attack of the Hon. Member. Mr. DISRAELI regretted the attacks made by his Hon. Friend the Member for Knaresborough on the manufacturers. He thought, however, that Mr. Wilson and Mr. Ashworth were thin-skinned in noticing these attacks; he knew both Mr. Wilson and Mr. Ashurst to be honour able men ; and he also.believecl that the Hon. Member for Knaresborough believed the statements made were true, but the time of the House ought not to be taken up by personal discussion. Now, with regard to the League, they had been stigmatised as assassins by the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government. He did not believe the accu sation, but why did they not prosecute the Right Hon. Baronet? The Hon. Gentlemen then treated the resolution of the House, as to " calumnious statements," as an ab surdity; the Honourable Member for Cork had been similarly accused. He (Mr. Disraeli) had never had a resolution against him, and if the Right Hon. Gentleman would take his advice, never to abuse anybody, he would never again be placed in such a position. Then with regard to the Right Hon. Member for Bath, he had certainly frequently offended against the rules of the House, by imputing motives, and indulging in melo-dramatic malignity and Saddlers' Wells sarcasm, but he (Mr. DISRAELI) knew that the tree would bear its fruit, and that a crab-tree would only produce crab-apples Mr. O'CONNELL had not been accused of calumny ; he had accused the system of Election Committees as one of perjury ; he had been censured, and they acknowledged the truth of his accusation by altering the system. After a few words from Major BERESFORD and Mr. BICKHAM,ESCOTT, Lord JohN MANNERS bore his testimony to the admirable manner in which Mr. ASHWORTH performed the important duties whish devolved upon him as one of the greatest cot ton barons in the empire. Mr. FIELDEN then went into a long statement relative to the emigration of the labourers from the agricultural into the manufacturing districts, occasioned by the higher rate of wages in the latter districts. Sir R. PEEL, in relation to what had fallen from the Hon. Member for Shrewsbury, in relation to the accusation of as sassination, begged to state that his intention had been dis tinctly to withdraw the imputation which he had thrown out after hearing the explanation of the Hon. Member for Stockport; and if he had been misunderstood, he begged to state that he now distinctly withdrew that imputation, and that he had certainly intended to have done so at the time. Mr. COBDEN rejoiced to hear such a distinct disavowal from the Right lion. Baronet. He had certainly not under stood at the time that the disavowal had teen so complete; and, acting under the feelings which perhaps had been un worthy of him, he had spoken of the Right Hon. Gentleman in a manner which he now regretted. The distinct avowal of the Right Hon. Baronet was most grateful to his feelings; and he now withdrew all offensive expressions which he might have made use of with regard to the Right Hon. Ba ronet In answer to Mr, S. O'BRIEN, Sir R. PEEL stated, that he should, on Monday, first of all, move the vote of thanks to the Indian army ; an d then, if the divison took place to night, bring in the Bill founded on the resolutions, and Pro eeed with the commerc ial measures as speedily as possible. On the motion of Sir R. 'PEEL, the shipowners' petition, presented last evening, was ordered to be printed. The adjourned debate was then resumed by Mr. BANKES, who in a lengthened speech declared his un compromising opposition to the Ministerial measure. The Hon. Gentleman animadverted on the conduct of the Right Hon. Baronet in writing that note to her Majesty during the Ministerial interregnum, tending h!s support to a Minister who should pursue an anti-corn-law policy, as setting a most dangerous precedent, and protested against the formatien of any coalition, whether all the members of it sat on the same bench, or some on one side of the House and some on the other. The Hon. Member theri alluded to the South Not tingham election, as a proof that the constituencies were in favour of protection, and called for a dissolution on this ques tion. It was upon this ground that the protectionists had taken their stand, and called for a divison in this stage of the question. He believed that in another place a stand would be made which would compal an appeal to the people, w hether the Government of the day wished it or no, in order that it might be known whether the English public were for or against the measure proposed by the Government. Mr. B. Escorr believed that it was impossible, in the present state of the country, to prevent the carrying of some such measure as that which had been introduced by the Government. That the measure must be carried he had no doubt, and then came the question whether the present Government ought to carry it or not. He believed that it mattered little to the people who carried the measure, as long as they obtained it. As to the observations of the Honourable Member for Knaresboreugh, they were beneath his rank and station to notice them, but this he would say, that not a single constituent of his, since he had changed his opinions, had called upon him to resign his seat. Since 1842 he had told all those with whom he was connected that he believed the inevitable consequences of the speeches of the Right Baronet at the head of the Go vernment, and the Right Hon. Gentleman the Secretary of State for the Colonies, would be such measure as that which was now proposed by the Government. The farmers were for reasonable and rational progress, and they believed that by some such a measure as the present their inte rests would be materially increased. He believed that in many parts of J? gland the dread of scarcity and famine was as great as it was in Ireland, He wouid give his most cordial support to the measures pro posed by the Government. The protectionists had discarded, the Right Hon. Baronet es their leader, and all that he asked was, let them candidly tell the farmers what they thought would be the end of their battle with the people; would it be in favour of protection ? He unhesitatingly as serted that it would not. The Hon. Member for Bristol had opened the eyes of the people, and had misted in greasing the wheels of free-trade. Captain GLADSTONE supported the amendment. Under protection the country-had flourished, and he thought, there fore, it ought not to be hutily withdrawn. Mr. GOEDEN then rose to address the House, but the Hon. Gentleman spoke in so low a tone as to be hardly audible in the gallery during many parts of his speeeh. The country would not be convinced that the party spirit which had been displayed in the debate, and the personal topics that had been adverted to, had not been resorted to for the purpose of shirking the question. The abuse that was being cast by the protectionists on the present Ministers was making them the most populir men of the day, and he had no hesi tation in saying that nu man would be received more kindly in Manchester than the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government. They talked about appealing to the people ; now he wanted• to know what they 'meant by that? He denied that they would have a numerical majogty of that House by a dissolu tion. - The protectionist party had been broken up notwitli 'standing their phalanx in 'llorsetshire and Buckinghamshire. This disruption of their.party had placed the free-traders in a very different position to what they were a few years ago. But, supposing a dissolugoq:took place, and that the protec tionists got a numerical-majority, he denied that that nu merical majority would represent the voice of the people. He denied that the protectionists could reckon upon having any representative of their opinions from any of the towns of England, Ireland—, or Scotland, that contained a population of 25 , 000 . - They might have their pocket boroughs and their counties, but they would have nothing else. The old Saxon mode of knowing what the opinions of the people were was by calling public meetings. He challenged the protectionists to call public meetings in favour of the corn-laws. That Would convince them, if any thing would, that the people were not with the protectionists. A meeting had been called at Epworth by the protectionists ; they had been driven from it, and resolutions against them had been carried. The peOple were now calling into exist ence a system of 500 years antiquity ;. if any were innova tors, it was those who would uphold the system that now existed. The basis of the county representation could not be too soon widael, and that was the object of the League, and they had the will and the determination to do it. When he read the debates at home that had been taking place in-that House for the last three weeks, he said to liiinself, " What fun this will be to the men in fustian !" Members little thought how these absurdities were being laughed at out of doors. He believed the con cessions that had been made by the Right Hon. Baronet were the greatest that were ever made to free trade.- He would admit that the protectionists and landlords, and many of the farmers with them feared the measures of'the Government; but why, because they had treated them like children, and told them that the free bade cry was an old Bogie, that had been set to catch them. They denied that, and had been depreciated by the measures of the Right Hon. Baronet. Its price had been raised, although silk and other commodities had been depressed It was monstrous to suppose that any measure that would add to the wealth of the country would have the effect of diminishing the price of land. He [did not want any triumph for - the - League ; all he wanted was, for protectionists and free-traders to meet together and determine not to tax each other for the benefit of a class. The country was now on the eve of a great change, and it became the young men of the aristocracy of Great Britain to do something that would hand their names down to pos terity unconnected with anything that was selfish or inhuman. They had the opportunity now of doing so, carrying out that great principle of Scripture if they chose, of " giving peace on earth, and good-will towards men." Mr. R. SPOONER supported the amendment of the Hon. Member for Bristol amid continued cries of " Divide." Mr. P. BORTHWICK then rose to address the House, and was met. with cries of "Divide, divide." The Hon. Gentle mini addressed the House amid much confusion, and con cluded by expressing his determination to vote for the amendment, Lord G. BENTINCIC opposed the motion for the House going into Committee on the propositions of the Right Hon. Baronet, because he believed those resolutions, if carried, would create a great revolution in the country, and one that the present House of Commons ought not to sanction. The Right Hon. Gentleman had challenged them to pro duce any instance in which a change from protection to free trade had not been alike beneneficial to consumer and pro ducer. He would meet the challenge, and would con tend that with regard to speltre, silk, wool, and tim ber, the results of free trade had been ruinous. Strangers Were then ordered to withdraw, mad the House divided, when there appeared— For the Motion For the Amendment 240 MAJORITY FOR MINISTERS ... 97 The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned. The division which took place this morning is perhaps the most remarkable on record, when all the circumstances con nected with it are taken into account. The majority was large, much larger than many persons anticipated, and was obtained by the Minister, not by the old system so much admired in the days of Prrr and LIVERPOOL, not by the representatives of pocket boroughs, or rotten boroughs, not by any of the constituent elements of what has been called party, and which ruled the destinies of the nation when GEO. 111. was King, but by the independent and almost personal influence of the Premier himself, and more especially by the conviction carried home to every unprejudiced mind of the vast importance and the manifest excellence of the measures themselves. Nearly all the rotten borough influence that remains after the weeding of the Reform Bill was opposed to the scheme, and that small portion of it which aided the Minister was given, not for party purposes, but because the patrons of these boroughs saw the time for change was come, and re solved to sacrifice their peculiar and family advantages for the general good of the nation. The landed interest was arrayed in a terrible phalanx against him. The names of MANNERS, and LENNOX, and LOWTHER, with the titles of MAnctr, and CHANDOS, and WORCESTER: and many other scions and retainers of the "bold barons,' were inscribed on banners, and held up to frighten the Go vernment. The most unconst Rational means were adopted by the members of a separate and independent state of the realm, the representatives of noble Peers in the House of. Commons were cashiered by their masters, and willing and subservient tools placed in their stead—but all in vain ; common sense and justice, and sound commercial policy prevailed, and by a singular coincidence, the Minister had his usual majority, and something more—that majority which conferred the title of the strong Ministry on the PEEL Cabinet. But this glorious result will not convince the more unreasonable of the pro tection party. They still vainly imagine that all the farm labourers, and tenants, and landlords, to a man, are with them. They loudly assert that the country has been taken by surprise, and some hundred members have forfeited their pledges to their constituents—they call these men rene gades and betrayers of those whom they were sent to repre sent. It is easy to call names, but it is often diffi cult to give a good reason for such abusive epithets. In this instance there is no reason whatever. The sim ple fact that a great number have changed their policy, not only without any object to be gained, but with many disadvantages, among others, separation from political friends and fierce abuse, is the very strongest proof of the speedy and certain reformation which the measures of Sir ROBERT PEEL are yet to introduce into the whole of our commercial transactions. The Members who supported Sir ROBERT PEEL were guided solely by their con victions. If the RUSSELLS, and PALMERSTONS, and COB DENS, and O'CONNELL% opposed to the Conservative, policy of the Minister, if men anxious to obtain possession of office, and patronage, and emoluments, could be induced to vote with the Minister and support his power, what absurdity to throw blame on Lord SANDON and Mr. MASTERMAN ? All impartial men will rather ap plaud their conduct, and rejoice that the Whigs can forget their political ties and prejudices, and that the Tories can sacrifice their party for the good of the country. This is the commencement of rational government. When the interests of the people can swamp those of statesmen and place-hunters, when Whigs and Tories can agree on the most important o; all questions—the welfare of the great body of the people— without regard to class legislation, we may then rest satis fied that the fruits of the Reform Bill are beginning to be 'eh, and that in due time it will accomplish those bright an icipations to which in 1831 it gave rise. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The " momentous question" is at length decided. The great cause has triumphed gloriously. Monopoly has ex pired ! The fell monster received his death-blow in the first speech of the Prime Min ister, but his dying agonies have been protracted, and pai nful to beh old. For three weeks the country has been kept in.suspense, for twelve ni g ht s th e attention of the House has been wearied b y profitless dis causrgsuilonnentsirw, e e x ly p e lod n e i d glitsofparty recriminations, a nswere d fallacies,." never ending, s till be ginnine,—,, a dreary , ho p eless, desultory war." Yet, as tw elve heavy, dull, flat copper pieces collectively form one bright silver shilling, so these twelve nights se gloomy in them selves, together form a debate unequalled in interest and im portance. Yet even individually they were not wholly gloomy; each night the darkness was made visible, by some speech of superior sense or eloquence, which seemed perhaps even more sensible or eloquent contrasted with the stupidity and dulness of the rest. We had always a " speech of the evening.". We have seen the Minister come forward in a nobler position than Minister ever held before, speaking nobly of great principles, not empty subterfuges—of a whole people, not a paltry faction; each a speech better still alone would have re deemed a mon th's dull talking . We have seen faithful and cons istent men rejoi c i ng in their hour oefoturfieustnsiopuhs of those converted by their consciences.; and, , we hav e h ear d th e glo riousOn rare occasions, too, the "speech of the evening " has been delivered by protectionists, yet these displays have been without effect. Even the genius of Mr. DISRAELI was un able to make " the worse appear the better cause." At length the twelfth, the last, the greatest night arrived, and its speech, like itself, put all the rest to shame. Whose was the speech of that evening? - not even to him, the untiring, the jealous advocate of free trade in its hour of darkness—not even to the eloquent oration of Mr. COBDEN must that merit be awarded. Behold the speech of the evening; the most brief, yet most Comprehensive ever uttered ; For Monopoly ........ For Free Trade Majority . Majority for free trade, majority for the people, for the poor and the atarving, for the wealthy iudwitripus; fin imlustry—yes, it/tilling _tz LONDON, SATURDAY, RUARY 28, 1846, The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack at Five o'clock. The Earl of RADNOR presented petitions from Welshpool, and several other places, in favour of a total and immediate repeal of the corn-laws. The Noble Earl also presented simi lar petitions from places in Cornwall and Soniersetshire. The Earl of RIPON laid on the table of the House the form of the vote of thanks which he intended to propose on Mon day to the Governor-General of India, and the officers and men under his command, in consequence of the glorious vic tory that had been obtained by them on the left bank of the Sutlej. Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from Col. Rochford, relative to the operation of the Insolvent Act. It was his intention, in the course of the next week, to introduce a Bill upon the subject. The County Works Presentment (Ireland) Bill went through Committee, and was ordered to be read a third time. The Drainage (Ireland) Bill went through Committee after a short discussion, in the course of which it was stated by Earl ST. GERMANS to be the intention of Government to employ a competent number of military engineers on the works that would result from the measure. The Fisheries Pier and Harbour (Ireland) Bill was read a third time and passed. The Howe then adjourned to Monday. 4 i ty FEBRUARY 28, 1846• C.1.1.2 - sacamarme9warammammr even for "Britiskindustry," that pines from too much kind_ ness, like the poor bird " protected "by its iron cage. Ah, but this was a glorious majority ! Well might the loud applause resound at its announcement. The echoing cannon that welcomes a royal infant is not so glorious as the living thunder that hailed the advent of Free Trade. And not alone within the House does that thunder resound; not alone does the Minister exult in his success the Leaguers in their hard-won triumph. The cheers of last night are echoed far and wide throughout the land ; they are swelled by the melodious murmur of a suffer ing people's joy ; they are raised aloft on the glad wings of certain hope ; they are answered by a joyous voice across the water, as the ardent children of the sister island rise at once from desolation to despair, and the blue hills of Scotland, the nursing home •f freedom, w ill re-echo the triumph of free trade with a music all their own. The universal exultation of the glorious moment, when the decision of the House ratified.the decision of the people, the universal shout of triumph drowned the last faint groans of the once proud despot, as protection; sunk to rise no more . The weeping dukes may raise a monument to his memory, while the country turns with gratitude to the Minister who has achieved this triumph, and to the men. who enabled him to do so. It must have been a proud mo• meat for Sir ROBERT PEEL when he found his power un diminished, though his party was broken. His party ? No, his party is now the people ; and it mast have been a proud moment for Mr. COBDEN, after years of patient, persevering labours, after days of trouble and brief moments of defeat — it must have been a proud moment for him to stand is the field of victory, and for the last time to advocate a measure which' mainly through bis instrumentality, should, in a few moments, be beyond the need of advocacy. His speech will be read with deep and earnest attention; it is enough to say it was worthy of " the hour and the man." Yet we cannot forbear alluding to one of those unanswerable " facts" always to be found in Mr. COBDEN'S speeches. In alluding to the anxiety the protectionists profess to feel for a dissolution, he showed them how much the public opinion, which they braved, was arrayed against them. "There are in this metropolis eighteen members, and there are two for the metropolitan county. We have the whole twenty—(lmmense cheering)—every one. They represent 1.10,000 electors, they represent a population of two millions of souls, the most intelligent, the most wealthy, the most 'orderly ; the hardest-working people in England. Is that public opinion, think you 2—ls that pub lic opinion ? " This was really a cruel question, yet, happily it required no answer. Mr. COBDEN thus concluded his admirable discoqrse : " We are on the eve of very great changes—(Loud cries of " hear, hear" from the protectionists.) :Put yourselves in a position that you may participate in the work and keep others from doing mischief. Yost belong to the race of the aristocracy—the aristocracy of hu mankind, not merely a privileged aristocracy, but an aristocracy of in tellect. I ask you to become the aristocracy of progress and im provement. We have given the world an example of great and many virtues—we have given to others our trial by jury and our representative system. The very rules and regulations of this House have become models for every deliberate assembly in the civilised world—(Hear, hear)—we have given to others the example of a free press and civil and religious liberty—and free institu tions.—(Loud cheers.) Let us now set them another example by making industry free, and giving all the countries of the world their full advantages of climate, latitude, and situa tion—the example of teaching them to buy in the cheapest markets, and to sell in the dearest.—(Loud cheers.) And do you think there as anything selfish in this, or that it is at all discordant with Christian principles.—(Hear, hear.) I will show you the highest behests of Christianity for buying in the cheapest market, and selling in the dearest, which is nothing more than going to a country where an article is cheap because it .is superabundant, and carrying it to another where it is dear because it is scarce ; and in doing this you are only carrying out to Its fullest extent the Christian doctrine of "doing unto others as youwould wish to be done by." The Madrid journals of the 20th inst. are destitute of in telligence, but private letters state that the new Cabinet is not likely to act Jong together in unison, and that some other change is evidently at hand. The report is extremely probable. The moderation of NARVAEZ was all feigned, and we are much mistaken if this man rests content till he is again at the head of the Cabinet. The Three per Cents closed at 31% cash, and 32% at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. closed at 23 1 / 4 at 60 days. The French Ministers have had another important di vision in the Chamber of Deputies in their favour, with a very large majority. On Thursday the Chamber divided on the Secret Service Money Bill, when there were— For the Bill ...... 220 Against it —162 Several of the Paris papers publish the details of the late battles in India with brief comments, but we find little in them that can interest the reader. One of them, the Presse, in adverting to the charges brought against Sir HENRY HARDINGE for losing so many men, and not being prepared with a larger force to meet the Seikhs, says :-" In all sincerity it must be declared that this motive is exceedingly slight in comparison with those which public opinion has had in France for blaming the Governor-General of Algeria. He also loses a great number of men-he also unceasingly demands re inforcements-but to arrive at what results ? At victory ? He does not even succeed in coming up with the enemy ! Our losses are without any compensation-even for our self love. It will, therefore, be allowed that we have infi nitely more reason to complain and to blame than our neighbours have." The following letter, dated Toulon, Feb. 20, is published in the National :- " Great military operations are about to take place in Algeria. Orders have been received to send forward a sum of 1,200,000 f. in specie to pay the army. The steam frigate Labrador, which sailed this day for Algiers, received on board 600,000 f. in specie. It has been officially announced here that the Duke d'Aumale is about to proceed to Algeria, and orders have been given to prepare forthwith the steam frigate the Albatross to receive his Royal Highness, who is expected here on the 3d or 4th of the next month."
