The letter of the Earl o f D, tilt? obsequies of the departed 1113 Y2 in reference to Hero, whose lamented death created so deep a sensation throughout the length and breadth of the land, w i ll be received unequ i voca l approbation by all classes and with society. It may be regarded as proceedin g gradesdirectly in the sentiments of, our G from, and expressing Moat and genuine kinrda: liness of feeling are nlous SOVEREIGN. True delicacy p e rceptible in every li ne. It was what might have been expected from Q ueen vie. Toar.A. on such an occasion. Her MAJESTY has com pletely fulfilled the expectations of her people in ( Li ng honour to the memory of him who in life was h er iftost distinguished subject. It is now virtually settled that there shall be a public funeral and that St. Paul's shall be the final resting-place of the illustrious General. He will slumber with our own NELSON—" the greatest Mili tary will rest by the side of the greatest Naval Chief who ever reflected lustre upon the annals of England." The decision of both Houses of Parliament will be ~,en on the question. Put it is not a. :fraoy JuuDC , :ouiel be entertained ou the subject—we should in deol blush for our country if a single dissent should be recorded, if the votes were not carried with per itic-; unanimity. The delay is merely intended to tonSer greater honour on the memory of the deceased n il l° l *, and to afford a complete recognition of the t r ue position and authority of the other Estates of the Her MAJESTY feels that she is a constitu ticoal Abn arch—that she acts in accordance with, a.,.1 not in dependent of her people ; and in awaiting the advice and co-operation of their chosen Repre sentatives she offera a gracef u l t r ib u t e to the tr u e s pirit of the British Constitution. „ She might," as Lord D ERTIY truly remarks, "of her own authority, have given immediate orders for this public mark of vener at i on for the memory of the illustrious Duke, and Parliament " and the country would cordially have app rove d the step. The reigning Sovereign had done so in the cr se o f the distinguished Admiral who laid down his life in the hour of vic tory at Cape Trafalgar ; and there is no la c k precedents to a similar ef fect, althou g h, utio,"f, other ~ per haps the present occasion, no one who had r endered sefrvices like NELSON, who ha d so eminently merited rhe highest honours from his sorrowing country, was thus distinguished. But "her MAJEsTr was anxiou s that the tribute of gr atitude and of sorrow should b e deprived of nothi ng which could invest it with a thoroughly national character—anxious that the greatest possible number of her subjects would have an opportunity of joining it, anxious too, above all, that such honours should not appear to emanate from the Crown alone, and that the two Houses of Parlia ment should have an opportunity, by their previous 7.anction, of stamping the proposed ceremony with increased solemnity, and of associating them aelves with her MAJESTY in paying honour to the memory of one whom no Englishman can 'name without pride and sorrow." With that feeling rthe has adjourned the final decision until the assembling of the new Parliament, expressing THE SITN, merely a wish, that " should no unforeseen impediment of the late illustrious and venerated Uommander-in-Chief should, at the public expense, and with all the solemnity due to the great ness of the occasion, IoP 1- posited in the Cathedral Church of St. Paul's, there to rest by the side of Nsmox." _ _ arise, the inorte mains Her MAJESTY observed equal delicacy to the family of her old and faithful servant. Although his exploits had rendered him, to a certain extent, the preperty as well as the glory of his country—although the " great space which his name has filled in the history of the last fifty years : his brilliant achievements in the field : his high mental qualities : his long and faithful services to the Crown : his untiring devotion to the interests of his country, constitute claims upon the gratitude of the nation which a public funeral, though it cannot satisfy, at least might serve to recognise," she would take no step " even in his honour" until the previous concurrence of his sorrowing relations had been obtained, and it had been ascertained whether he had left any directions, or whether his family desired to express any wish upon the subject. " The sense of duty," however, which, as we have already explained, formed the g reat charac teristic of the great Duke, prevented him from inter fering with what he must have felt would be the privilege of his grateful SOVEREIGN and his sorrowing country, whenever his glorious career might be brought to a termi nation. In a similar spirit his sons, the pre sent Duke and Lord CHARLES WELLESLEY, left the matter entirely at the disposal of her MAJESTY ; and the notification of her wishes and intentions in the admira bl e l e t Q te a r e a e b n o ‘ ve in r T e n fe n r i r A ed h t a o s h e as ver bee st n o t o h d e result. High High as opinions and feelings of her subjects, strong as have b een her claims on the affectionate loyalty of her people, her o if pnssih c le n , d n u n c n t on ferad t d h i is ti n al strength melancholy to theseoccasion will, if alike honourable to the ruler and the ruled, to the chief magistrate of a free nation, and to those who dwell under her mild, be nignant, and constitutional authority. The QUEEN and the people have been in full accordance, as we trust they will ever continue. It may possibly be that the meeting of Parliament will be hastened in consequence of the melancholy event. It had previously been fixed for the 11th of November —a pericd which might be more convenient for the new Members, and which also might be received in redemption of the pledges given by the Ministerial leaders in both Houses. The calamity which has placed the nation in mourning WE3 not, however, then anticipated. It has rendered an earlier meeting expedient, if not necessary, and be lieving that the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, on whom the chief labour will fall, is fully prepared for the emergency, and that the meeting might be accelerated without any great Ministerial inconvenience, we trust that the Government may be induced to take the step which, in manifesting additional respect to the mighty dead, woukl unquestionably be pleasing to the nation. Although the autumnal session of Parliament about to be commenced will be necessarily restricted in du ration and, therefore, to a considerable extent modi fied in importance, it must prove essentially one fraught with a very peculiar interest to the population. Re cent occurrences have tended, moreover, to enhance the curiosity which was certain, under ordinary cir cumstances, to be felt in regard to the first meeting of the Imperial Legislature after a general election of a very remarkable character. Immediately the new Members have been duly sworn in, the principal members of the Cabinet in both Houses will have to indicate in some measure the policy about to be ad ventured upon by the DERBY Administration. In the Lords no little solicitude will be manifested in refe rence to the Ministerial explanations offered to the country by the Noble Earl the First Lord of the Treasury, while simultaneously the same species of anxiety will be entertained in the Commons as to the revelations likely to be made by the Right Honour able Gentleman the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. Doubtless the difficulty in which the Cabinet was placed shortly after its formation in February, has been somewhat diminished by the unexpected ability displayed by its members in at once carrying out, with all requisite skill, the routine labours of the Government. It was expected at the outset that a Ministry created with such unexampled suddenness, one, moreover, which necessitated the elevation to power of so many men who had never before enjoyed the privileges of office, requiring, indeed, the advancement of no less than eighteen noblemen and gentlemen to the dignity of Privy Councillors within the limits of a single Gazette—an incident so extraordinary as to be actually, we believe, without any precedent--it was ex pected that a Ministry created with such singular, but, it must be admitted at the same time, unavoidable precipitation would reveal, before very long, a pai n f u l amount of inefficiency, so far es to bring into dis credit even the more practised members of the Ad ministration. Instead of this the community has witnessed with a very agreeable, and the more so be cause unexpected, sense of satisfaction the display of really admirable business powers on the part of the majority of the principal members of the new Go vernment. Under the guidance of the Noble PRE MIER, the Cabinet has in respect to the customary toils devolving upon our administrators acquitted itself very worthily, and in some particulars even to admiration. The Earl of DERBY has so far, in truth, justified the laudatory predictions upon which Old CHRISTOPHER NORTH, some years ago, adventured when, in one of the famous Nodes Ambrosiana, he made en exception in favour of Lord STANLEY, when reviewing the Whigs of that day—brandishing his crutch in terrorem over the heads of Earl GREY and his Ministerial colleagues ! Besides the PREMIER himself, there are others, now associated together under his leadership, who have already, within the last six months, shown a capacity such as to acquit Lord DERBY of rashness in their nomination to the responsible posts of Government. The financial affairs of the United Kingdom are consequently found to have flourished under the care accorded to them by the Ri • ght Hon. Gentleman the CHANCELLOR of the Exc a t ' , ukat—a fact bewildering to those hum-drum men of business, who cannot understand how any sensible budget could ev e r pr o ceed from the hands of a popular novelist Rather a tough nut to crack this has consequently be en to rum g"" s alis thoga h your dead-level admirers of properly official mediocrity! One bol o s requiring to be taken even now are can i b n e e a p p r a o b p leer properly how th e ~a d n d d in he red tape fingered by a man oufndierinzatga through imagination !

As yet Sir Jo HN PAXINGTON has had but small occasion to show h ow far he is competent to discharge the duties of Colonial Secretary—though in one particular; at least, we can not but think he acted neither with desirable fore thought nor with commendable deliberation —we mean, of course, in reference to his bearing towards the delegates sent to this country from Nora Scotia and New Brunswick, with a view to negotiate the establishment of a grand railway enterprise capable of binding more closely together and associating more intimately with the mother country, by bands likely to have proved indissoluble, the whole of the gigantic provinces of our North-American possessions! Happily not thus thoughtless, and we may venture even to says unpatriotic, has been the course pursued in regard to ?o i l. foreign relati ons by th e N o bl e L or d t h e E ar l o f i A.LMESBURY. At first, no doubt, we had a crow to P l uck with him in regard to Mr. MATHER and his wro ng JOHN p ' , 4 : ni s we had already with his coll eague , Si r GTON, in regard to Mr. CHAN DLER an d his ente rprise. But the Noble Earl showed himself amenable to reason in the development of the atecor respondence w i th the Florentine Government—inso much that immediately after Sir HENRY BuLwEE had a rrived at the capital of Tuscany Lord MALAIEssuRy re paired the blunders into which he had inadvertently fallen, if h e faile d to Compensat e Mr. SCARLETT for a very unmerited depreciation.

Several of the subordinate members of the DERBY Cabinet have like wise evinced abilities sufficient to have justified the P REMIE R in having risked their elevation to the ranks of Government. It has thus happened that notwith standing his Young England " antecedents," not withstanding verse-writing and white waistcoats, Lord Jour; MANNERS has contrived to acquit himself asLord-Lieutenant S o a of ls o cre ditably in his capacity as Chi e f C omm i ss i oner o f Woods N and Forests. Ireland—the with the lof E Gt. IN OUmemorable tournament, as they sa y i n th e l aw cour t s , to the T contrary nevertheless notwithstanding. Additional evidence of a similar character might possibly be ad duced from the proceedings of our newly-appointed administrators in the other departments of the Go vernment, but the foregoing we take to be more than sufficient in anticipation of the speedy assembling of the Imperial Legislature. It demonstrates clearly enough that Ministers have not been idle any more than they have proved themselves either ignorant or incapable throughout the whole of their reiterated delays and tedious procras tination. It is thus, we conceive, that the difficulty of their position has been somewhat appreciably dimi nished. While however such, to our thinking, has been indisputably the case, we feel satisfied, at the same time, that as the peril of their situation in re gard to the past has been diminished, so its respon sibility in reference to the future has been propor tionately increased. Upon the leader of the Cabinet devolves at this moment the necessity of unfolding with promptitude and perspicacity the precise nature and direction of the policy upon which he proposes to carry on the affairs of her MAJESTY'S Government. At this juncture, moreover, he finds himself unex pectedly called upon to distribute with a wise and de liberate impartiality a surprising number of honours, places, and emoluments—consequent, of course, many of them, upon the demise of the great Duke of WEL LINGTON. It is the last-mentioned event which imparts the novel and peculiar interest, to which we have already incidentally alluded, to the approach ing assemblage of both Houses in the Legislative palace at Westminster. The tributes which will ne cessarily and naturally be offered to the memory of his Grace both in the Lords and in the Commons will impart value to the debates of a session such as might otherwise have been almost entirely restricted to the dull routine labours of organizing and martialling the ranks of a newly elected Parliament. Mean while the Earl of DERBY, in discharge of the acces sion of duties before specified, will have to award the two Garters now lying at his disposal, and to dis tribute a variety of other honours and authorities. If we are to credit the announcement put forward by our Ministerial Contemporaries that Lord Viscount HARDINGE has been selected to fulfil the responsible duties of the Commander-in-Chiefship, no better ap of pointment could have been made on the score services and experience, and this first step of the PREMIER'S will be universally commended. But there is still much to be done, and everything assures us, indeed, that it is under no ordinary cir cumstances that the natiun is now awaiting the arrival of the memorable November which is 0 wit ness, so soon after the death cf the Duke of WEL LINGTON, the assembling of the new Parliament. AMlb We remember once, when arguing with a banker in whose office we wished to leave a petition for sig nature on behalf of the penny-postage, being met with the self-contradictory objections, first, that the vast increase of letters would break down the mail coaches (for railways then had hardly dawned upon us), and next, that the revenue could not beep the loss. Soon perceiving that such a vast increase of letters, and loss to the revenue too, would not hang together, and aware that with such profi's it could easily afford to pay for a little more accommodation, he admitted the petition, but obtained not a single signa ture thereto. We afterwards found that there was an unmentioned argument behind, he feared its in terfering with what he could charge his customers for remittances ! Our agricultural friends frequently were much in the same position. We used to hear them argue, first, that foreigners would take nothing but gold for our corn, and that there would be a most ruinous drain of bullion ; and when told that they must in the course of trade receive our goods in return, they would turn round and tell us, well, but with free trade thay will deluge the English markets with foreign goods, and ruin the home producer. Bat JOHN BULL, in the person of the Norfolk farmer, had, like the banker, an inner counting-house reason— he did not like low prices for wheat. It is, however, remarkable, as if every form and shape of Protec tionist argument, after refutation by reasoning, was to be utterly routed by experience, that the late re turns of the Board of Trade exhibit the precise converse of the two above-mentioned assertions. Our exports have largely increased, our imports dimi nished, and gold flows in of course to pay for our goods. JOHN BULL (in Essex at least) would not always understand, that no one could eat gold, and that it signified little who had it, provided those who had parted with it got money's worth for their money; nor would he understand that with provi eions at a reasonable price we feared no foreigner ; but he can understand, we hope, the irrefutable argument of facts and figures ; and from these it ap pears that we have tco much rather than too little gold, that foreigners have Taken increasing quantities of our produce, and yet have sent less of theirs. We do not, of course, mean to imply that such a state of things can continue. Our consumption of foreign pro duce has, in fact of late, exceeded the importation, and trade will no doubt soon approximate again to its normal condition, that of barter. Still it is instructive to notice how a sound principle like that of free trade will in its workings falsify by turns every supposable objection which can be brought against it. For the month terminating on the sth of September the increase of exports, as compared with the corresponding month last year, is 170,9651.'; and though, owing to the re duced price of cotton goods (for the quantities each year nearly correspond), the value of exports for the seven months terminating the sth of September is somewhat less (373,4961.) than that for the corre sponding months of 1851, yet, compared with the same period in 1850, the increase of exports is not less than 2,330,488/. ! It is worth the agriculturist's notice, too, that grain itself is one of the articles of which the foreigners have sent us much less in return for our increased exports during the last seven months; 5,414,398 quarters in 1851, against 3,239,492 in 1852. It is obvious that as our consumption of foreign ar ticles has exceeded the importations, the latter must soon begin to increase, and we shall have abundance of either manufactures or the magic gold itself to send them in return. THE NEW COMMANDER•IN• CHlEF.—Lieutenant- General Lord Hardinge has been appointed the new Com mander-in-Chief. The next Gazette will officially announce the Noble Lord's promotion as " General," after which his Lordship will succeed to the command of the army. t f:fr V t sh oe i s uo C t O hr 11 d pnn Ordnance, c il s e u a a r r ns d td i , nKg family, e e n h t ,as wheren le t e f t t dt G ht eo r e nr a oe t mb S a t ni‘, a i n au h s jo et p iri e- us s he t no r re e tr e laytl before the meeting of Parliament.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 6,000 bales, of which 500 American were taken on speculation. The market was tame and closed flatly. The sales comprised 5,000 American, 150 Pernam and Maranham at 61d. to 7id., 20 Bahia at 6-0. 2 150 Egyp tian at 5-id. to Bd., and 600 Surat at 4d. to 44d. per lb.— Railway Shares were dull. The steamer Parana, with the West India mails, brings 1,496,750 dollars in specie. There appears to be considerable difference of opinion in the West India colonies upon the sub ject of emigration, On the one hand it is asserted that the salaries of the planters and other Europeans engaged, have been cut down to the lowest point, while on the other it is affirmed by some of the attornies that they do not mean to reduce, and only wish the circum stances of the estates would allow of raising the income of those in their employment. We must draw our con clusion, however, that there is some reason for dissatisfaction, though not so general as as serted, for many young men were resolved to quit Jamaica for Australia. Considering the want of enterprise and capital there, and the temptation of the new gold fields, we cannot feel surprised at this. At a meeting of the intending emigrants, they passed the fol lowing, among other resolutions:— "Resolved—That, impugned as the motives and intentions of the members of this association have been, .they refer to the above dispassionate state ment of facts in full justification of the steps they have taken, and while they would most earnestly desire to remain in Jamaica, regret most sincerely that the island holds out for them no prospect for their con timuance. They therefore—urging no man to leave his employment—seeking no combination to that end, and once more discarding all idea of intimidation to their employers, will be happy if they , cao, by numbers, achieve their passage to Australia at the cheapest pos sible rate, and invita any party intending to prceeed there to join them without delay." Very heavy rains h a d f a ll en in Jamaica. In some parishes as much as 1,200 gallons per acre, when the showers were heaviest. The sugar crop in Trelawny would bo considerably less than expected, owing to the long drought, cud the next crop, it is said, will not to any better. On some propertkes the cane fields were completely burnt up. The whole crop in Jamaica for 1852 is estimated at 28,000 hogsheads. From Demerara the reports about the weather are very encouraging. One party writes that— "As if to compensate in some measure for the low price of sugar, the scarcity of labour, and the indiffer ence of the home Government to our future, we have had, since the beginning of the year, weather of the most benignant kind for the growing crops. Rain and sunshine have suce.:eded each other in the precise rotation want3d, and the con sequence is, that the crops up to the date are largely in excess of last year, and there is a likelihood, or rather an extreme probability that the aggregate of the three countries will, for the year, reach 54,000 or 55,000 hogsheads. Sugar, however, and its congeners, rum and molasses, are our only exportable produce, the quan tity of coffee now growing being insufficient for our own consumption." There is a ship arrival from the Cape of Good Hope, but her dates are not later. The llooghly, from Port Philip, does not bring later news, but has 6,643 ounces of gold on board. The Bank of England weekly return to Saturday next will, it is expected, not exhibit any important alteration, in the bullion. This being the " White Fast" is a strict holiday with the Jews. A communication has been forwarded by the com mittee of Spanish American bondholders with respect to the debt of the Republic of Ecuador, from Mr. Mo catta, their commissioner at Guayaquil, who writes thus: —" Since my last respects of the 20th I have received the enclosed dispatch from the President Urbina, which I now forward. At present the Assembly are engaged with the Constitution; bat ere long I think • The Public Credit' will be brought forward, when I shall be on the alert to get such articles inserted as will tend to bring forth a favourable result to my mission. The Flores affair is concluded. The ships are:lying disarmed at Paita; most of the chiefs are there." The dispatch of the President above referred to states his willingness to do all in his power for the obtain ment of an honourable satisfaction of the claims on the Republic. There is a very firm market for Public Securities, but with as little business doing as for some time past. Consols have been quoted 100* to for Transfer, and 100* to j for Account. South Sea Stock is worth Exchequer-bills of March have been at 745. premium. Consols now are 100* for Account, and_loo to it for Money.
