SEPTEMBER 8, 18;2. Our contemporary Fraser —under pretext of per- I traying the Personnel of the New Parliament —h as sorrowf u lly enumerated the losses of the Old Parlia ment. One by one he has caused the rejected repre. sentatives to move past like so many captives mar shalled in chains before the .triumphal procession of their successors. The spectacle revealed in the mere catalogue, it must be confessed, is sufficiently melancholy. It betrays either 2n extraordinary amount of popular ingratitude, or a very lamentable flaw ;r1 our representative system. Perhaps we should more correctly assert that it affords evidence of both one and the other.----?.vidence of ungrateful conduct on the part of the electors and of miserable faultiness in the machinery of the elections. Other wise it would be scarcely posale to account in a iso ny reasonable manner for the rejection of many eminent men simultaneously in so Many •, diff erent parts of the United King dom.

With equal incon sistency and ingratitude have other groups of electors discarded the " sound common sense" of Alderman HUSIPHERY, the splendid oratorical powers of Mr. Fox, the patriotic self-devotion of Sir WILLIAM SOMERVILLE, the energetic perseverance of Lord Mescus HILL, the historical information of Lord 'Hattori, the legal knowledge of Sir Joins Romirxr, the geographical learning of Mr. WYLD, the honesty of Lord DUNCAN, the classical refinement of Mr. SMYTHE, the vigour and vivacity of Mr. BAILLIE COCHRANE, the energy of Mr. ROUNDELL PALMER, and the integrity of Mr. Summer( CRAW.- FORD—and so on through the whole unfortunate list of those who have been unaccountably rejected among our former representatives. Several peculiar instances are specified in the course of the very sensible remarks of Fraser, wherein, ac cording to the opinion of our contemporary, the pos sessors of the franchise have revealed the most flagrant ingratitude and most marvellous lack of discern ment. Among these instances the name of Lord EBRINGTON requires to be conspicuously notified, seeing that that young nobleman bas, during a con siderable time past, revealed more and more clearly the proficiency he has attained as a man of business habits in connexion with the Legislature, and t h e skill he has acquired in what is here happily designated " the mechanics of legislation." Fraser has a goodnatured word of regret to utter over the defeat of Mr. PARSER, at Sheffield, of Alderman COPELAND, at Stoke-upon-Trent; and even of one who was long tabooed by the House of Commons— Mr. CHISHOLM ANSTET—who, says Fraser, " after much early eccentricity had at last begun to win the ear of the House and who rarely spoke on any sub ject except to take an original view, and to illustrate it by apposite citations from recondite authorities. Very different in tone is the farewell tribute offered shortly afterwards to sundry among the other re jected of ,the Irish constituencies. The bagpipe , h d,rwni ofw i th ethe M r.hoCwaling AwroßD, " it is facetiously observed, chorus of the Brigade,' will no more vex the d u ll ear o f the drowsy House." There is subsequently raised a sort of paean over the defeat of Mr. REYNOIDS (" the THERSITES of the Commons") during the stormy contest in the city of Dublin—while a half regretful mention is made of the rejection of Mr. lioassuri, so long the sting and terror of the Episcopacy. Another tribute in Fraser to a defeated candidate among the catalogue of former representatives we ought especially to regard with satisfaction, both in reference to Free Trade and to journalism. For the tribute in question is the one directed to the veteran author of the " Corn•law Catechism," and to that " Old Reformer" familiar to the readers of The Sun by his pithy communications to the Secretary of the Bradford Reform Association. This allusion to the eminent merits and prolonged services of Colonel PEE. BONET Thompson is a propos to the rejection of Mr. GEORGE FREDERICK YOUNG by his forther consti tuents—the writer remarking that the Free-traders had thrown over a vigorous Free-trader in Bradford, just as ungraciously as the Protectionists had the "seem ingly only honest advccate of Protection" in Scar borough. Whereupon, continues our contemporary, "we cennot say that we regret the absence of Mr. YOUNG, whose blatant enthusiasm and misplaced obstinacy were as much an annoyance to his opponents as they were an obstruction to his friends ; but old Colonel THOMPSON we really wish to see back again at his wonted station under the gallery, and near a pillar (to him seemingly indispensable), once more to trumpet forth his clear sonorous sentences, pregnant with ideas and studied with aphoristic humour. We shall miss, too, his weekly letter to his Bradford con stituents, wherein, MARVEL-like, he rendered an account of his stewardship, and gave such graphic descriptions of the proceedings in which he was so regular and steady, though generally SO silent, a participator." The tribute we have here given is as gracefully written es it is eminently deserved, and the allusion made to the "sonorous sentences, pregnant with ideas and studied with apboristio humour," is egveripqr_ hippy—applicable as those words of enlogium are not only to each of Colonel Thompson's speeches in the House of Commons, but to almost every page in the six volumes of his thoughtful and diversified " Exercises." The comprehensive glance through this retrospec tion by Fraser over the results of the late General Election, while it impresses the mind more forcibly thau ever with solicitude es to the future of the new House of Commons, reminds us at the same time somewhat sadly of the losses accruing to the country from the dissolution of the old Parliament. A question of considerable importance, which h as already been discussed at some length, will be brought under the consideration of the shareholders of the South-Eastern Railway Company at their half -yearly general meeting. A prolonged correspondence has also taken place, the principa l feat ures whereof are recapitulated in the concluding letters , which will be found in another part of this day's impression, and to which we invite the attention of all interested parties. It appears that the owners and occupiers of land in the district situate between Strood and Chilham and Maid stone, being naturally desirous of.obtaining additional railway accommodation, appointed a committee for the purpose of entering into negotiations with the directors of the South-Eastern Company on that subject. Certain propositions were put forward on behalf of the landowners to the effect that an Act should be obtained for the construction of the pro posed work, which would complete the direct North Kent line, at en expenditure not exceeding 600,000/., including the price of land, that the South -Eastern Company should not be required to contribute in any degree to the capital, but that they would be expected to take the line on lease, when com pleted, for seven or fourteen years, at a rent amounting to three per cent. on the outlay, t i e d half the surplus profits, making due allowance for the r entand working expenses, including reasonabl e allowance for wear and tear of the working stock. A s ub - committee was also appointed to submit these that subcommittee, pro p osi tions, and to treat with the directors of the trunk line. Serious differences have arisen between represented by Lord SONDES and the body of shareholders will M.P. ; Mr. J. 14.4 : 3 r5, acting through their chairman and as the general on the e ill to-morrow have to express elee ar l ious points, it may be their opinions well that they should to y d understand the subject- 1 18,000/. matter on which they are per proposed line would conviction an num, the directors, who have bad long the lease, at the minimu m reenetide. With respect to theirn practical expe rience on such subjects, declare made, w a o u tTl be nil, thatth a t ethveendiifvidtheendismo,ensttmheent were the cost and expense of working. Under such zvail would not countervail line constructed, the traffic, per se, circum stances it could scarcely be expected that the direc tors would recommend their constituents to incur a new and heavy liability without a reasonable chance of some fair equivalent. Eighteen thousand pound, per annum would make a considerable inroad on th e sums applicable to dividends, which have already been too much reduced, to permit the supposition that any further diminution would be cheerfully assented to. There is no doubt that real pro perty in the district would be materially be nefited, and that it might be worth the while of the owners of the soil to undertake the outlay, although it proved utterly unremunera tive as a railway speculation. This might be, and we believe is, the truth. But if so, the parties seeking the ben e fit s h ou ld b e p re p are d t o put t h e i r h an d s i n their own pockets, and to obtain the desired advan tages s at their own exeense an d no t o f t hi r d part i es . d Th e Company would gladly co-operate, would render e very assist ance in their power, but a guarantee of 3 per cent., with a promise of half pr o fit s , wou ld b e, t o all intent s and purposes, assuming the ent ire b ur d en ; for i n the present state of the money-ma r k e t an d the high credit enjoyedai by the company, the director s could easily ditionel charge fse the required sum, without any ad or interest, and without being liabl e for the ContingentWhichwould half of the profit=, a chanc e , however, not be very formidable. The promise of raising t h e entire capital on such terms, without calling on th e company ti, e any to contribute, is no I such very great exertion torial aristocra c y , " that thepart of the " shareholdersterri should be the overco me with gratitude for excessive liberality. But 19t us see how ouch these aristocratic parties have offered. Nothing, literally nothing. Twenty four thousand shares should be taken—eighteen thousand were subscribed for. But by whom ? By the highly-respectable contractors; while the subscription lists still remain open as to the remain in g 6,0C0 shares, the enterprising and public- spirited landowners not having bound themselves to any considerable amount for the atta'nment of the desi. deratum. Well may Mr. MACGREGOR exclaim—" This is decidedly objectionable. It furnishes no evidence of the stake which the gentlemen and landowners of the district pledge to the permanent welfare and interests of the scheme, but suggests and countenances passadventure uc a c n e d s s s o p f e e a u f l r a e t s i o b n branch only ine temporary yand railway w a r ay b y contractors, divested of the Character it should possess of permanent property and investment by the owners of the soil through which it passes. We do not pre sume to say that an entire list of landed subscribers is indispensable, but we wholly object to your Lord ship advsncing an inference that this opinion is to be looked on as a direct refusal to agree to the project." He adds with much truth, " the subscription list presents no expression of desire by the gentlemen of North Kent to construct a continuation of the North Kent line by investment in its shares, to guarantee its permanent welfare, but that of contractors merely to deal with the subject as an adventure, and in that light only can it be contemplated." If then the extension is to be made, the pro prietors must come forward boldly and ener getically. They must cease to rely on others, and set their own shoulders to the wheel. When they have done so they will find the company willing to do all that can reasonably be expected at their hands, viz., to lend their utmost assistance to the efficient and profitable working of the new line, when it has been completed at the cost of the land owners. With respect to the general prospects of the com pany, we are happy to find that the total increase of the traffic last half-year, compared with the cor responding period of 1850, has been no less than 53,111/. sterling. The Exhibi tion, of course, made a very great change, and it would scarcely be fair to compare the traffic at a time when there was no extraordinary excitement with such an unparalleled occasion. But we still find that, excluding the through traffic to Dover and Folkestone, on which of course there was a reduction, there was an increase of the general passenger traffic of the line and branches of 15,174/. This is indeed a satisfactory announcement, affording a cheering prospect to those who have invented their capital in the undertaking. THE PRESS IN PARIS. The tone of the French Government organs foreshadows some fresh and d ec i s i ve measu re against the press, to finish at once a ll oppos i t i on . In this view, a fresh articl e f rom a pen prophet i c o f ill, that of M. Granier de Cassa gnac , i s wort h y o f particular attention. clearly This sinister composition, a continuation of others under the heading of " The Government of Decem ber 2 considered in the point of view of reason and morality," defends what he calls the " in troducedreform" by that Government in the law relating to the press. To appreciate this reform it is, he says, necessary, in the first place, to resolve this general question,—" To what extent have the Governments of great nations in all ages permitted freedom of think ing and writing ?" Thi s q uestion he answers, to his own satisfaction, in these terms : " History teaches that the absolute liberty of writing and thinking proscribed by the Governments of all let tered nations of antiquity, is a modern theory of revolu tionary origin, never brought to the test of experience till less than a century ago, and this theory will appear now to all right thi n kin g men, as during a long course of centuries it did appear in the eyes of great nations, i false, danger ous , an d i m practicable, f, as reason and equity require, it be judged by its results. This is not the place to expound in detail the constant practice of the two great nations of lettered antiquity, the Greeks and Romans, with respect to the liberty ot thinking and writing; some general traits will suffice to refresh the memory of the reader in this particular. It is well known with what severe orthodoxy the dogmas of the state religion were protected by the laws of the Greek republics against the novelties of the philosophic schools. The boldest freethinkers themselves outwardly professed to respect the belief of the people, and two celebrated religious prosecutions (the trial ot Alcibiades for the mutilation of the Hermes, and that of Socrates) mark e o t d ic e r defencetitnesobfyretlhie tv. ‘latt 4..acqusit. 4Une4 tb,3 •;:kc.oca uoria the et:Dl n D: i f:i o n: s e d tle g ll m t a o s f , t h w s h t e c r h a ti o n f s t h h e e d e n i n e r in g condemnation of Yanini, Servetus, and the Chevalier de Labarre." A man who in the nineteenth century supports an argument against the liberty of the press by citing as precedents the poisoning of Socrates and the burning of Servetus, is evidently not an advocate to do his work by halves. Passing from the Greeks to the Romans, 11. de Cassagnac refers to the persecution of the Christians by the Rcman emperors for three centuries, and to the laws of Theodosius and Valen tinian, when Christianity had become the state reli gion, by which it was made death to deny any iota of the Nicean creed. The Governments of the middle ages, and that of France in particular, faithfully fol lowed this tradition of ancient nations, and thus from the first of the capitularies to the last of the ordi nances three generations of kings protected, by severe laws, the trust of the public creed against the teme rities and aberrations of individual reason. M. Granier sets the stamp of his approbation upon the above-mentioned monumental acts of tyranny—held up through all history to our execration—in these words :—" If good and wise spirits rasa, they will acknowledge that the conduct of these Governments was equitable and sensible." Thus, in the opinion of the chief writer of the Government press, the execution of 8,800 heretics by the first grand inquisitor was an "equitable and sensible" proceeding. While the text inscribed over the constitution of Janusry 15, 1852, is the pre servation of the principles of the revolution of 1788, M. Granier speaks of the most fundamental of those guarantees—the liberty of the press—as a pernicious concession of Louis XVI. He proceeds to show the " equitable and sensible" way in which the First Consul dealt with the press, end concludes that the liberty of thinking and writing h-s never been a right, but is a mere prejudice, incompatible in the troublous times of the last half -century with the existence of government and society, at least in France. This manifesto can only be regarded as the precur sor of a fresh blow to the press. The articles of M. Granier have a more important scope than to console people for lost liberties, and to reconcile them to the iron sway under which they live ; they pioneer to fresh inroads, they blow the trumpet-blast to fresh on slaughts. The Debats, which has long ago bowed the head and given up the composition of leading articles upon matters ne:ser than China and Japan, or interests higher than auriferous quartz, or steam packet companies, may be allowed to exist, if such vegetation can deserve the name. But the Presse will assuredly be crushed, and perhaps the Sic/e. As an agreeable poison is more dangerous to life than the blow of a mallet, so Dr. Veron is, through a plausible and pleasant style, a more insidious foe to liberty than M. Granier with his lion's skin and club. The doctor begins an article in the Constilutionnel by comparing France surrendering her liberty to Louis Napoleon to Madlle. de La Valliere entering the con vent in which bhe expiated the vices of another. `• Madame," said this fair penitent to the superior of the Carmelites, " I come to resign into your hands the liberty of which I have made so ON 11 a use." It is certainly plea cant in this comparison to think of Louis Napoleon as a father-abbot receiving the vows of contrite France. The doctor then cries out, in the language of Virgil's celebrated lines : Ilene saltsm everso juvenem suecurrero saolo Ne prohibete; i h te li u td s a nif : tit ; r a tr ei i tt n . h i eb i Dnapsgyae pyramid l e Nivd e o eow f sfsh t . s h aol e lc sifeee society which hoonwi tlsopn og l i s Napo leon ascribed to himself on the 29th of March w , a t ni n idi at hra h ed e . it A ...

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. we have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The .31oniteur announces that the Minister of Finance has just reimbursed to the Bank of France millions remaining due fr o m the loan of 50 that establishment to the Treasury in March, 1848 . The preceding 25 millions having b ee n paid on the 241 July last, the whole loan is t m b i e ll 2 io s na made by now reimbursed. An article in the Constitutionnel, on the late re duction of the interest on Treasury Bonds, gives it to be understood that the Minister of Finance will before long reduce the interest on the savings banks deposits to the sum originally fixed, namely, 4 per cent., but raised after the revolution of 1848 to 5 per cent.

His Imperial Highneas is expected to return to Berlin before the termination of the ma noeuvres of the guards. The report of cholera having broken out in Frank fort-on-the-Maine is positively contradicted ; nor do we hear of its making any serious progress westward, from the Lower Vistula and middle Oder. The storm which burst over Berlin on the 31st was felt with equal severity in more distant parts. It appears to have fallen with peculiar severity in the neighbourhood of Bonn, where pieces of ice, rather than hailstones, committed great ravages. It appears from an article in Friday's Berlin Times that Madlle. WAGNER, or her father, has not behaved with much courtesy towards ROGER. The fair arts prntn;seri to sing at his brnefi'', and pre - = parations were made to that effect by ROGER and the Opera house direction; but when the moment bad nearly approached, excuses were made, and another female singer and other pieces were substituted. This did not injure ROGER, whose benefit was most pro ductive; but it has not improved the reputation of the WAGNERS. R O GER had, it appears, so fully re lied upon the promise of Madlle. JOHANNA, that he had purchased a han:lsome bra ce l e t t o p resen t t o h e r after the " spectacle, which he handed over to a more complaisant artist. Mr. BADE has received liberal offers from the H am burgh manager for the score of his kit popular opera. ronExaN. Business done 3T o minelPrices. 0-thy.

As every o ne knows, the virus from a bite may lie dormant for months and even years, though rarely so years el. long as the latter period. This occurrence, and the subject of hydrophobia generally, had been the frequent theme of discussion with his compan i o ns, and no doubt had made a very serious impression on the young man's mind. A re cent domestic anxiety had also preyed on his spirits, and altogether he was in a depressed condition. On Tuesday last he was seized with violent convulsive attacks. lie ex perienced very shortly a perfect horror of water, generally re garded as the fatal symptom. Rio home being close to a run ning -stream, he became painfully excited by the conscious ness of its neighbourhood, and at length he was removed to the Royal Berkshire Hospital, where the symptoms con tinued to such an extent as to lead the attendants to believe that it was a real case of that terrific disease. However, soon after his removal he began to rally, and on inquiry yesterday, we h ear d t h a t be is gradually recovering. There is now no doubt on the minds of the medical gentlemen who have watched the case, that the symptoms arose from the depressed nervous condition of the patient, caused by mental anxiety, assuming that particular form from the impression made on his mind by the fear of hydrophobia.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. - • The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 5,000 bales, all to the trade. The market was quiet. but firm. The sales comprised 4,000 American, 50 Pernam and Maranbam, at 7d.; 150 Bahia, at 60.; 100 Egyptian, at 61d. to lOid.; 500 Surat, at 31d. to 48d.; and 40 Sea Island, at is. 4d. to 2s. 4d. per lb.— Railway Shares were quiet. The arrival of the Hellespont steamer from the Cape of Good Hope brings intelligence from that colony to the 3rd August. The accounts regarding the war are still very unsatisfactory, and a cessation of hostilities appears to be as distant as ever, whilst the expenses to the Home Government are rapidly increasing without any adequate result. Trade was very dull, without any prospect of an immediate improvement. The following communication is from the Committee of Mexican Bondholders:— " Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. have received, per Medway, 72,968 dolls. 35 cents from Vera Cruz and Tampico. besides bills of lading for 24,068 dolls. 25 cents, shipped to them irom ports in the Pacific, which, with previous arrivals, make up 715,261 dolls. 55 cents in specie, and bill s of lading on account of the 800,000 dolls. which they advanced for the payment of the Mexi can dividend due Ist January last. "The temporary excitement in Gudalajara, mentioned in the newspapers yesterday, was not directed against the Federal Government of the Republic, but an affair of merely local interest." There is no alteration in the tone of the English Stock Market to-day; prices continue steady, with a moderate range of dealings. The settlement of the monthly account is passing off satisfactorily, as the differences upon Bull and Bear speculations are very nearly balanced. Consols are 100 to for Money, and look to 4 for the October Account. Reduced Three per Cents. are 1004 to New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. 1044 to 1 1. Bank Stock 229 to 230. Exchequer-. bills 735. to 765. prem. for the March issue. The scrip of the Turkish loan has again been exten sively dealt in, and at the commencement of business this morning it was at a premium of 84 to 91, being a further rise of 1i per cen There has since been a little reaction, and it is now marked at 81 to pre mium. Peruvian Bonds are firm at yesterday's rise; the Active are 103 to 105, and the Deferred 64 to Sardinian is also firm at 951 to 96; but Spanish Securi ties are a shade lower, the Three per Cents. being now 49i to 50, and the New Deferred 228 to 23. Bra zilian are 102 to 104. Austrian Scrip is somewhat better, being 4to I premium. Grenada Deferred 128 to 13*. There is scarcely any business doing in Railway Shares, and the general aspect of the market is un favourable to sellers of stock. North-Western are 122 to i; Midland, 77i to i; South-Western, 93 to -I. Brighton, 1041 to 105. Some slight improvement has taken place in Mining Shares, and rather more business has been done in them. Noveau Monde are 11a. 60, to 13s. 6d. premium; Agua Fria are 5.16 to 7-16 premium; Colonial Gold, to premium; and Port Philip Ito premium. London Chartered Bank of Australia Shares are de clining, and are now marked 2i to premium. Victoria Docks are 4 to 4 premium. English Crystal Palace Shares are par to premium, end those of the Crystal Palace of France 1 to lf premium. QUARTER TO THREE. ... 991 100 ... 100 k Oonso ••• Ditto Account. Oct. 13 ...
