SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNAL... The absurd misrepresentations of the Standard and IVorning Post with respect to the Glasgow electron Jae ably exposed in a communicaticn of tt correspon s'ent in another column, with the signature of Glaseu ensis. He shows that by no delay could the Tories have gained one vote. No person can be put on the Jon except at the one fixed period for registration eveh tear, which does not take place for two months to c ome. No legal delay could have added to the num ber of electors. But a certain proportion of the ele9- tors are every year disqualified . fir sonic InpAqtts, from the circumstance of there being only one Regis ration Court in the year, and neither of . the terms (Whit suntide and Martinmas) at which renters of houses give up and enter into possession coinciding with the period at which the Registration Court is held. A considaable number of most unexceptionable electors are thus disqualified for several months in every year, for the voter must make r,atlt that he is actually in possession of the premises for which he is registered. It so happened, observes our correspondent, that the time of Mr. Oswald's resigna tion brought the probable day of election very close upon.one of the terms above alluded to, and as the oc • curence of the Whitsun holidays prevented the issuing the writ in due course, it was found that if dispatch were not used in transmitting the writ the election might be postponed till the period which would, through a point of form, merely incapacitate a large number of voters. These voters would have had good reason to complain of having been juggled out of their privilege ; for ninety-nine in every hundred thus incapacitated to vote by change of residence would be re-registered in the beginning of August. What proportion of these voters whom delay would have incapacitated were Reformers, and what Tories, it is not for us to say ; but this we will say, that it was never intended by the Reform Bill that electors duly qualified shoukl be incapacitated for two or three months every year ; and it is a strange sort of complaint that the election was not postponed beyond a term which would have unjustly deprived a number of voters of their franchise. The votes for Mr. Monteith could not have been increased, though they might, and would, no doubt, have been diminished by delaying the poll to this week. The number who voted for Mr. Ewing at the last election was 2,297, and the number who voted for Mr. Monteith was 2,292. The Tories have not gained, but, on the contrary, lost 5. Our correspondent conjectures that various causes have kept back 217 Reformers, the difference between the number of 3,267 who voted for Mr. Dunlop, and the 3,050 who voted for Mr. Dennistoun ; but the Tories remain just where they were. Not one Reformer has left his colours and swelled the Tory ranks.—Morning Chronicle. The result of the Glasgow election, as our reade will have seen by the details in yesterday's Dm. was a majority of 758 in favour of Mr. Denistoun ; so that Glasgow still remains, for one while at least, and so far as her representative is concerned, an un clean stve of Radicalism. Our readers are aware that we have not put forth any recent promises or con fident predictions as to the manner in which this northern struggle was to terminate. Proper means of organization, we knew, had not been prepared to take advantage of and ripen that wholesome public senti ment which had sprung from Sir Robert Peel's in structive and spirit-stirring appeal to the Constitu tional feelings •of the people of Glasgow. The fire had not been carefully fed, and the hearth grew cold in consequence. Of course we should have hailed ssith heartfelt gratification any solid evidence, such as a majority would have afforded, of the judicious employment of that much improved political and religious disposition throughout Scotland, the ex istence of which we had from other testimony considered, and still consider, to be placed beyond all rational question. A conquest such as Glas gow would have been inestimable. , But to miss a prize, however precious, is merely a compara tive, not a positive, loss. Glasgow before the elec tion was not ours, Had we gained it, the blow to the public enemy would have been mortal. That we have not yet gained it implies no diminution of strength to the Conservatives. It leaves us where we have been for the last three years. It leaves us in that po sition which we certainly had not reckoned on spee dily exchanging for one more advantageous through the medium of an election for the metropolis of Scotch democracy. Nevertheless there are circumstances which ought to be taken into account, for the sake of duly estimating the more im me di a t e causes o f t h e defeat of M r . Monteith. The preliminary arrange ments were all more, matured on the side of his op ponent. So late as last Tuesday his committee and agents had no knowledge of the constituency, even by name ; one fruit of this was, that for a considerable time after a necessity had shown itself for prompt and decisive action, the efforts .which ought to have been made towards classifying, marshalling, and securing the electors, were lost in vain talk and gratuitous assumption, and every thing like a sound and effective canvass was lost sight of. But all thi s w hil e t h e R a di ca l voters were skillfully arrayed and organized, and good discipline established among them. Thus one considerable start was given to the public enemy. Again, it was on the very eve of the nomination that the constitutional can didate made his appearance in Glasgow, nor was it until the same hour that the great body of Conserva tives had full assurance of any contest taking place, or any Conservative being prevailed upon to show him self on the hustings ; whereas Mr. Dennistoun was already and publicly pledged, and all his friends prepared to exert themselves in support of him. Thus a second start was surrendered by the Loyal ists to their opponents. A third and last mistake was in some of the agencies resorted to. But on this point we are the less inciined to dwell, because of our entire persuasion that no such groundless, absurd, and pernicious preferences arc likely to be indulged on any flatus occasion, by those intrusted with the central guardianship of that one great national in terest, of which Mr. Monteith was lately designated as the local representative for the city of Glasgow. Even under all the above embarrassments, however, the Conservative power appears to have held its ground far more vigorously than that of the Revolutionists, adopting for the test of each the numbers of votes polled at former elections, and the final majority, as compared with that now obtained by Mr. Dennistoun. In the election of 1835, the gross number who voted for the Radical candidate, Mr. Oswald, was 3,832 ; for Mr. Ewing, the Conservative, 2,297. Whence ap pears a majority for the Radical of no less than 1,538 ; whereas the gross amount of Radical suffrages at the late election _was but 3 ; 050, a falling off of 832 from the Radical poll books ! while Mr. Monteith polled 2,292, a diminution of no more than 5 ! This, so far is satisfactory. With regard to the Ministerial trick, alleged to be an illegal one, of sending off the writ by a conveyance not sanctioned by the law, it stands some chance, we hear, of becoming matter for legal inquiry, and is, therefore, an unfit subject of animadversion here. If it be true that several hundred votes were secured to one side, and abstracted from the other, by an irregular mode of transmitting a public instrument so solemn as a Speaker's writ, it is not by the tribunal of the Newspaper Press that either fraud or error con nected with such proceedings can be cured or punished, --limes. cry of re-action, in4,ist now blush at their own match less cfrrontely, if, indeed, the slightest remnant of ;!iaine lingers in their . breasts.

It has been the fashion of the Toties, for some time past, td create a pre;indice against all reform camlidatet, re presenting them as infidels. On the baseness of those coul . d seek to gain a triumph by the use of wea pons so fool as these, we pause not now to make any observations. But what shall be said of those who ) not confining their traffic in falsehood to general charges, can have the unblushing effrontery to trump up specific charges of the most atrocious nature, with the view of defeating- an opponent? The To ries of Glasgow, knowing the commendable horror the people of Scotland entertain towards irre -li4ion and infidelity, invented against Mr. Dennis toun—and audaciously preferred it in open day to his face—the accusation of having put7liclv burnt the hie. It is to be hoped that ihe miscreant who fabri cated this most atrocious charge—most atrocious, be cause it has been proved to, be utterly groundless—,it is to be hoped that the miscreant with whom it origi nated will be discovered, that he may he shunned by mankind, and treated with the scorn which such un heard-of baseness merits. But he is not the only guilty party. Those are scarcely less so, who knowing that there did not exist the shadow of a foundation for so mendacious a calumny, assisted in giving it cur rency, in the hope that it would prove fatal to the suc cess of Mr. Dennistoun. It is gratifying to be able to state, that Mr. Monteith, the Conservative candi date, was no party to so despicable an expedient to promote his interests. To his honour, he not only publicly disclaimed being privy to it, but denounced the charge as a most dastardly calumny. We wish we could say as much for the majority of his sup porters. We fear that to their characters as politi cians, the foul stigma of having sanctioned and abetted this worse than assassin-like attempt at the moral reputation of Mr. Dennistoun, must for ever attach. Happily, this deadly thrust at the private character of the Reform candidate, proved perfectly innoxious. The Scotch Tories mistook the: genius of their coun trymen ; and hence their cunning and mendacity in Plrumping up such a charge, have gone for nothing. ;The Reformers of Scotland are too shrewd and too generous a class of men to credit any serious imputa tion on the character of others, without proof. In this case there was, of course, nothing in the shape of proof. The charge rested solely on the assertion of the Tories, and the Reformers knew too well, to pay the least attention to it, the worth of Tory asser tion when the character of a political opponent was to be damaged by it. Well, what between their mortification at their signal defeat, and the re morse which, in their moments of reflection, they must feel at the profligate expedients to which they have had recourse in the recent contest, the condition of the Tories of Glasgow is pitiable indeed. So fare all who are capable of resorting to such unhal lowed tactics with the view of promoting party pui. poses I—Morning Advertiser. We beg to point the special attention of our readers to a copy of a petition from a National Association. of Licensed Victuallers, for the protection of their trade from unnecessary and injurious encroachments, recently presented to the House of Commons, and also to a paragraph highly illustrative of its justice, which we hate copied from a provincial paper. The Licensed Victuallers, who have been the prey during the last nine or ten years of every Agnewite or Buckingham who took it into his head to acquire a character for extra ordinary piety, temperance, or morality, ask for nothing that is either unjust or unreasonable. They simply pray the representatives of the people to deal with them as they deal with all other classes of tradesmen—to in quire before they decide—to look to the effects of their past legislation, before they determine upon future acts —and not to be perpetually intermeddling with a trade in which a large amount of capital is embarked, and for the due and correct carrying on of which the most ample security is exacted and given. We believe, for our own part, that there is no danger for the present, at least, of any farther tampering with a trade which Ministers largely to the comforts of all classes of the community, as well as contributes a very considerable amount to the general revenue of the country ; but it is nevertheless right, after what oc curred in the case of the infamous Beer Bill, which has been productive of all the mischievous consequences that we predicted previous to its becoming the law of the land, that the Licensed Victuallers should be awake, and watch carefully the follies which interested and bigoted parties, or would-be saints, would attempt to engraft upon their trade ; and we give them every cre dit, as they shall also receive our most strenuous sup port, for resisting attempts which can only result in embarrassing and unsettling their business—depreciat ing their property—and curtailing those occasional in dulgences which the tradesman and the labourer can not always enjoy at home, but to which the poor are as much, if indeed not more, entitled than the wealthy aristocrat, whose cellars are always sufficiently stored to render it unnecessary for- him to have recourse to the humbler accommodation reserved for his less for tunate fellow-subjects. THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF LICENSED VICTUALLERS OF ENGLAND, To the Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in Parliament assembled. The humble Petition of the undersigned Members of the Metropolitan Committee of the National Association of Licensed Victuallers of England, appointed by the following townq, to watch the interest's of the trade, viz. :—Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Macclesfield, Bath, Wor cester, Sheffield, Chatham, Stroud, Rochester, Wakefield, York, Bradford, end Portsmouth, Shewetb,—That your Petitioners learn with regret that various Bills are now before your Honourable House, having for their objects great and important alterations in the trade of your Petitioners. That your Petitioners'humbly pray that your Honourable House will be pleased not to make any alterations in the laws affecting the trade of your Petitioners without calling for a full inquiry into the operations of the Beer Bill of 1828. That your Petitioners will then be prepared to shew, that that Bill has totally failed in the objects for which it was passed. That your Petitioners farther beg leave to represent to your lionOurable House the mischievous and ruinous effects those various Bills have upon the vast extent of property engaged in the trade, embarked upon the faith of the exist ing laws which regulate th e s ame .

About ten days since we earnestly warned the Re formers of Glasgow against that undue confidence in the result of the then impending election for that cite, which has proved fatal to the Liberal interest in so many other quarters, and of which we had so recent and striking an example in the issue of the Westmin ster contest. We implored them to act with as much zeal, and energy, and perseverance up to the last mo ment, as if the result were altogether a matter of un certainty. We concluded our counsel to the Liberalii of the West of Scotland, by pledging ourselves, that if that counsel was acted on, the result would be the triumphant return of the Reform candidate.

That the law has been wilfully violated, that it • his been violated for the purpose of promot ing the return of the Ministerial candidate, will, We suspect, be made abundantly clear, but whether this will be deemed by the House of Commons a matter for cen3urc or for praise remains yet to be seen.

I have th.. all of whom good of the Church than the majority of the bench of sion for twenty-three years under six Viceroy‘f tof th eir Bishops—the majority of the House of Lords-Lthe have known how to respect the loyal attachmee l . iled fellow-subjects, ; and my first impulse was to have IN. 3jb majority of the Established Clergy of England and my office into the hands of him who has now , for the .first lreland, and the majority of the representatives of time, thought fit to consider me unworthy to hold it ir _ ele :England in the House of Commons. They Inow pendently ; but, as by so doing I should carry into effect l, t all these majorities condemn their policy with the views of those who have suggested to the Government tlltt. .. 0 the Church, and it is possible (such is Mi their present measures , I prefer to await the more distill , rcggcl 1.f... ttisteri it modesty i) that.; notwithstanding this; thSi think their plans beneficial td the Church ;—but suppose they do, how can they reconcile it to theriiSelyes that de bl4rei.l eri,criiie of the Establishment should be oti ',ben; side Do tliej , Mr. Hume, Mr. War burton, Mr. Rippon, and griptiort their rra§tires, because they think these measures beneficial to the Church establishment ? Such a pro ig D.r they suppose that Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Sheil, Mf.

If thee do, what cite in there of palpable ab • J'r i • • • - 1' stir y r ext ar.ganee w they May not also suppose ? And yet, tOttdt.* they tell us; while these men are cheering them on and t'Olipotting them against ti thJotity of the English representmiiies; that they (the Ministers) are the best friends of the Established Church I There is hearing so mon strous—nothing so plainly contradictory to truth and common sense, but what we may find asserted by men who and it convenient to pretend a friend ship to the Church, which, in fact and in habitual practice, they ate labouring to destroy, Mr. Baines, who takes much upon hiiti as an expounder of the sen timents of the Dissenters, is, lilt Mr. Rice, offended when he ig told that his object is to overthrow the Church Establishment ; and yet we find his name appended to a resolution of a public meeting, which declared its first object to be a severance of Church and State ! Again, it is let out in the Home of Commons by Mr. Sheil that the object of the appro priation clause is the ultimate diversion of Church property from ecclesiastical purposes to secular pur poses ; and out of the House of Commons it is plainly declared by Mr. O'Connell that neither he nor - the Irish people will be satified until the National Establishment of Protestantism in Ire land is wholly abolished. Yet these two gentle men are the great allies of the Government in all its Irish policy, and the Government assures us' that it harbour: no design whatever against religion in general, or the Established Church in particular ! How can they eApect a sensible people to be gulled by such nonsensical contradictions ? Do they think to persuade us that men whom we see whitewashing a wall are all the time actuated by a very sincere desire to paint it black ? Do they think that upon their suggestion we shall believe that men whom we see in close confederacy with thieves and swindlers, are, never theless, marvellous honest men ? They might as well attempt either of these things as tell us, in the face of notorious facts, that their policy is any thing else than the policy of the Church's enemies. With this hostile policy they have now, however, been distinctly charged, and we believe the whole people of England are ready to repeat what the majority of their Representatives have already done—via., to confirm that charge by their votes. Whether the Ministry gives way, or does not give way, this character of it is sure, that it is a Ministry hostile to the Established Church.—Morn ing Herald. HIGHLAND RAMBLES. ILLUSTRATION OF INSANITY. A lady who passes through much romantic adventure, which we need not recapitulate, becomes mad and lives in a ruined tower. A belated traveller, - hearing sounds like revelry, seeks shelter beneath her roof. The gentleman followed his conductress up the half-ruined screw stair, which here and there exhibited fearful chasms, from the entire absence of two or three successive steps, over which she skipped without the least hesitation, while he was obliged to thrust his nails into crevices of the wall to hoist himself over the difficulty. But after he had ascended two flights, he came to a landing-place where there was a doorway entering into that large hall from which he had heard the voice of the maniac. Into this she led the way ; and as he was about to follow her, you may imagine his astonishment when I tell you he discovered that the whole flooring was gone except the bare oaken beams ; and the apartments below being in the same state, his eyes stretched uninterruptly downwards till vision was lost in the impene trable gloom of the dungeons below. But his conduc tress hesitated not a moment, and went onwards from beam to beam with as much indifference as she would have walked across a paved court, until she gained the great hearth, which, with a small portion of the planking in its vicinity, was still entire, and where a fire of wood was burning under the huge projecting chimney. After partaking of refreshment, they had a dance. " Now, sir !' said the maniac, resuming all the quiet and decorous behaviour of a well-bred woman, a little gentle exercise after supper conduces to a good re pose. I shall be happy to give you my hand for a minuet.' Pushing back the seats they had occupied, she seized the stranger's hand, and took her position beside him on the hearth. He offered no opposition to her proposal ; and she immediately began to sing with great brilliancy and effect that minuet so well known to our grandsires and grandmo thers under the name of the Minuet de la Cour. Fol lowing the example of his entertainer, the gentleman was obliged to make his preliminary courtesies ; and had any eye looked upon the couple as they were thus em ployed, it might have been naturally enough supposed, that he danced with some handsome lady of quality, dis guised in a fancy dress, so perfectly did the grace of her attitudes assimilate themselves to the various move ments of the minuet. But the gentleman had not alto gether calculated the nature of his present undertaking. The spot of terra firma on which the dance commenced was by no means large enough for the extent of one-tenth part of the figure of the minuet ; and a less bold man than he would have felt anything but tranquillity of mind, when his insane partner, giving him her hand, glided with him over the beams, amidst the half light that proceeded from the de caying embers, like some spirit from the other world. But if this was alarming, what were his feelings when, after the slow part of the minuet was over, she began to carol the sprightly gavot which follows it, with a clear voice, that made the lofty vaulted roof ring again whilst she darted off and called to him to follow ! So, indeed, he found himself compelled to do ; but whilst he, at the risk of his life, con tented himself with keeping up something like a semblance of the figure, he was astonished and appalled to see his partner go through the whole dance with all that actigty which have been exhibited on a common floor by the ablest professional dancer. Though he felt not for himself, his hair actually stood 'on end as he looked with trembling upon her, whom he expected every moment to see disappear from his eyes into that abyss of darkness that lay below ; and great was his relief from anxiety, when the dance was at last terminated on the hearth-stone where it began.— Sir Thomas Lauder': Highland Ramble:. During the Whitsuntide holidays of the present year, we remark with unfeigned pleasure, that we have only heard of one instance of that cruel, brutal sport, Cock-fighting, having taken place, which was at Endmoor, about five or six miles from this town, viz., on Whit Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday ; which, we opine, has equalled former demo ralizing exhibitions, of the same species in all their savage de pravity. It may be justly considered a matter of deep regret to the mind that is in the least endued with the common feelings of humanity, that, in this enlightened age, a final stop is not put to the progress of those vicious and wa,ton doings.— Kendal Mercury. It has been mistakingly imagined that only large towns can afford to establish and maintain a gasometer; in contradiction to which we find that the small town of Gilling_ ham, in Dorsetshire, was last week lighted with gas, the whole expense not having exceeded 6001. and the number of public lamps, , being 25, and of private lights 150. Lady Charlotte Hill, daughter of the Marquis of Downshire, met with an accident on the night of the ball in honour of the Princess Victoria's birth-day. While her Lady ship was stepping into the carriage to accompany her family to the ball the horses moved onwards, and threw her from off the step. It was at first reported that the knee was dislocated ; but on examination it proves to be only a severe strain of the muscles. SHIPPING INTELLIGE ~.~ -~--~ EAST INDIA SHIPPING.

Every parish vestry will become the seen eed hot contest. Everywhere there will be angry and protract meetings, and vexatious and protracted pollings. In inar i o places the rates will be refused altogether, as they have bee 15 Manchester and Shef f ield, and where they are carried throng., the influence of the parson or squire, the example of t he Qualreti: will be followed, and people's goods will be seized , all,c l „ a he tempts to sell them by auction in the market places at made.

Cruel imprisonments also tried, and, as in the case of John Childs, they will only adt` . ., the determination of the people to rid themselves of the nui pest. There will be agitation at every meeting to ele , r , churchwardens; agitation at every poll for churchwerdener; agitation at every meeting to lay a rate ; agitation at e poll upon a rate; agitation when goods are seized for ranee' t e l ; agitation when those goOds are offered for sale ; agisatior the courts when a rate is laid illegally ; and agitation w.." s h any conscientious man is thrown into prison. , In every elii• stene the parson will be found arrayed against a portion of, $ parishioners, and the consequence will be the creation eg 0 feeling that all he obtains is unjustly bad, and, ultimately' sturdy a resistance to tithes as to Church-rates.

He rowed a few yards, when he stood up and immediately fell backwards, but soon recovering himself, he rowed on again, and succeeded in catching the other boat. He then got off his scat, and staggering towards the head of the boat, he fell overboard and sunk, but almost instantly rose again and struggled for a few seconds, and then sunk to rise no more. Witness immediately gave the alarm, and in about two minutes a boat passing under the bridge, he stated what had happened, and accompanied the waterman to the spot, where they picked up his hat, but could see nothing of the body. The drags were soon afterwards procured, and they dragged for half an hour, but without success. In his opinion the accident would not have happened if the unfortunate " Jack" had been sober. Matthew Parry, a labouring man, stated that he was walking along the batik on Friday morning, when ho perceived a body floating, and with a long stick he brought it to the shore. The Thames police-boat passing at the time, one of the men recogn i se d it as that of the deceased, and it was immediately conveyed to the Spread Eagle. Verdict—" Accidental Death."
