LORD Eli ING TON. We have great satisfaction in hying before our readers to-day the speech delivered Lv Lord Ebrington at the Il fracombe Reform Dinner, noticed in our last number. Upon the Chairman giving " Our noble guest, our beloved, and consistent Reformer—Lord Viscount Ebrineton"—his Lnrdship rose and spoke to the following effect : • Gentlemen—Although my old friend and fellow labourer in those county reforms to which he has just alludes', has made a far too kind and partial mention of the part which I bore in conjunction with him and others, in carrying those objects into effect, I am, nevertheless, most deeply indebted to him for the kind terms in which he has been pleased to introduce my name to the company, and to you for the very flattering manner in which you have received it. And at the same time, I cannot deny myself the opportunity ne. ex pressing my grateful eitimation of the kindness attic many hundreds, not now in this room, who so cordially greeted my arrival here this morning., and geta to my obedience to your vequest,rather the appeorence of a triumphal entry, than of the mere acceptance of a convivial invitation. I hope am not presumptuous in. assuming these demonstrations as a proof not only that my humble services in the cause of reform have not been on the whole unacceptable to you, but also that you continue to entertain those great political principles, which first recommended me to your notice, and that, entertain ing thane principles, you approve of the course adopted by the Ministry, to which you have paid so flattering a com pliment in one of the toasts this evening, and that you approve also of that support 'which I have humbly endea voured to give them. I infer from these demonstrations, that the word " Reform," which stands emblazoned on the well before me, and which formed so lor: the object of our fervent aspirations, and the bond of our union, con tinues still to hold its place in the hearts and affections of the independent electors of this district. I had been told that there was a re-action here : I had been informed that the electors of Ilfracombe considered that the march of raeform had gone too far, and was advancing too fast, and that they were disposes', to retrace their steps backward. From what I had ever known of you, I ventured, before I came here to-day, to deny the assertion ; and what I have seen-here to-day has satisfied me that I did not take too much upon me in making that denial. You have paid a well merited tribute of praise, in my opinion, to the best Ad ministration which, in my recollection, has ever swayed the coansels of this empire. That administration, it muss be remembered by all of you, has had to contend with great dif ficulties, from the over exorbitant demands of some of the friends of reform on the one hand, and from the powerful and obstinate opposition they have had always arrayed against them by the enemies of all reform on the other ; and it is curious enough, that, as extremes sometimes meet, so have both these parties concurred in branding the Go vernment as the most dribbling and inefficient that this country ever witnessed. Now, that that class of Reformers who think that nothing is gained in the way of amendment so long as any s:ngle grievance remains to be redressed— that they should accuse of inefficiency those who have not fully realised their hopes or acted up to their anti. cipations, may at least be in some degree consistent ; but that a charge of inefficiency should be put 'forward by the Tories, does, to my mind, seem strange indeed ; for when we recollect the measures which have been passed by the Government—the Reform Act, the Muni cipal Act, the Marriage Act, and others—when we look at them and remember that all or nearly all of them received from the Tories the most persevering opposition—that they should accuse those Ministers who carried these measures, in spite of them, nisei in spite of their majority in the Mouse of Lords, of dribbling and inefficiency, is strangely inconsistent, and if the charge were truc,it would prove the Tories, on their own, showing, to be the merest drivellers that ever meddled in political matters. Gentlemen, I have given my support to the present Government ; because I considered that, adapting their measures to the wants and feeling of the people, so far us they could be practically carried into effect, they have steered a wise, temperate, and judicious course of improve ment ; and I am persuaded that if they arc supported, as I hope and trust they will be supported in the ensuing Parlia ment, they will continue in the same course, progressively advancing in the march of reform. At the same time, gentlemen, you roust be well aware, and I should be sorry to attempt to disguise it from you, that the returns which have been made to the new Parliament, have in many instances disappointed the hopes which 1, in concurrence with many other friends of Reform, had been induced to entertain. I cannot disguise from myself the fact, that the majority of the Government in the House of Commons in the last Par meat has not been increased, I may say it has rather de creased, in this ; and I grieve to say, that the class of re presentatives to which I belong—l mean the representa tives whose constituents consist chiefly of agriculturists, the county Members—is the class which exhibits the greatest defection from the Liberal cause. I have heard this accounted for in different ways ; I have been told that those who compose this class of the constituency, having no particular - grievances to complain of, are again become apathetic and indifferent ; that past services are forgotten, or, like eaten bread, are but little thought of.• I have.heard also much of corruption, and intimidation, and undue in fluence ; but while I think that each and all of these have bad their effect, I am fully persuaded that misrepresenta tion has had more to do than them all, in swaying the county elections in favour of the Tory party. It is painful to me to make this declaration, but at the same time I tell you what I believe to be the truth, and I know of no reason which should induce me to conceal from you an opinion which forces itself irresistibly on my own mind. I need not add that the circumstance I have stated, making as it does the course of the Government more difficult than. before, renders it more than ever necessary for the friends- of re form to be firm and united, to be cautious and prudent, and, above all, to be patient, in order to enable Ministers successfully to contend with the difficulties to which I have alluded. Among the toasts which have been drunk this evening, one, which I heard you so cordially respond to with much gr:ilification, was, " The health of Lord Mnigrave, and justice to Ireland." Now, what is the we:,sure of justice which the Tories intend to mete out to Ireland, on the result of the late elections ? You know that the Irish returns give about 7-10ths of its represen tatives in support of the present Government. And why has Ireland made tech a return ? Simply because she has the must giievanecs to complain of—because she has suf fered the most severely from Tory misrule—and because she most dreads, as she has most reason to dread, the re • turn of Orange tyranny and Tory oppression. And what is it thet we wish to giro to Ireland ? Simply that which we have obtained for ourselves. The great difference between the Tories and Liberals relates chiefly to Irish ques tions ; the Irish tithe question and municipal bill, are the two main bones of contention between the government and their opp.ments and it is simply because we wish to take from the sinecure church of Ireland a small share of the incomes wldch are wasted upon non-re.iident ministers without congre gations, and to apply it to the moral and religious education of the people—on this account is it that the Tories have attempted to revive the old exploded cry of " No Popery' against its ; and because we wish to gis e the towns of Ireland the right alieady conceded to those of England—th e right to select their own municipal bodies, and to abolish these old local juntas which are there ten times more corrupt than the English corporations ever were—it is on this account that the existing administration is denounced by the Tories as hostile to Protestantism in Ireland. But I was going to ask what is the niaaeure of justice the Tories propose to mete out to Ireland ? Most of you are aware that a subscription has been set on foot, not for the purpose of petitioning against any definite or particular return, but without any know ledge of the facts, without proof, without previous inquiry, for the avowed object of encouraging and supporting pcti titions against every liberal return that has been made by Irish constituencies. Why, gentlemen, what should we say, if an attempt of that sort should be made among us? placing ourselves in the relation to Ireland, in which Ir -.P ) ,an( t stands to this country, should we not say, if a doctr;eie of that kind were sent forth, that it wets high time for els to demand a separate Legislation and a repeal of. the Union ? The part 1 took upon, the questior, I have just mentioned is well known to all of you : so long as Mr. O'Connell and his followers advocated that mischievous and dangerous po licy—the repeal of the Union—no one was more stre nuously opposed to them than I : but when they limit their object to what I in my conscience believe to be but corn moil justice—when they ask only welt we enjoy, and what, let it be reniese - bereil, we promised Ireland when the Union was e‘?„ected for the eJodition of the compact was that she ;Would participate in the civil privileges which we Possessed ourselves)--I say when they limit their views to so re-sonable a compass, I will not be deterred by any a2prehension that I shall he classed among the Members of what is called Mr. O'Conneli's tail, from demanding, aye and from demandin g as ludly as Mr O'Connell can d o , although wi t h very far less ability, those concessions to which I conceive Ireland is most justly entitled ; and I shall treat with nom and contempt the hypocritical cant of those who are endeavouring to revive the cry of No Popery, and would persuade you that the Protestant Church of this country will be injured by an act of justice to your fellow- Subjects in the sister kingdom. I know that the honest and free, the just and independent men, whom I have now the hrihour to address, go along with me in that sentiment ; and ! 1 am quite persuaded that a great majority of the honest and good people of England would equally subscribe to it, if they rightly understood the subject, and if they were acquainted as I am with the state of Ireland, and the wants aid wishes of the great body of her people. Gentlemen, I have entered more at large on this topic than I intended to do, and I have too long trespassed on your kind indul gence. I have said before, I trust that if the friends of . reform are fi rm an d un it e d, p a ti en t an d forbearing, the dif ficulties by which the course of the Ministry is beset, way be ove, corn. And lam happy to think that in one respect, at I. ast, • here is a great difference between this and former J . reigns . , that the tone. add language, and disposition of the Court, are strictly in unison with the feelings of the Queen'l responsible advisers, I am aware that thcr of delicacy in intr o du c i ng th e rani: of the Sovereign, as con nected with the arts or the Government ; but I cannot for get th:l. when the inclinations of the Sovereign were , sup posed to he in some degree adverse t o th e councils of his Ministers, his Majesty's name Was htonght fbrilvai'd not very scrupulously by the Tories, although they are now descanting very largely on the impropriety of any allusion to the sentiments of the Sovereign, and verj prc• perly say that the Ministers of the Crown, ar.il son who wears it, are resp ons ibl e t the per son vernment. I fully su- 1 7 7r tlic acts of the Go :oe to that opi n i on ; b u t a t th e same time, 1,.0 not feel th a t I am guilty of anyinjestiee to tl'7 !illustrious Princess who now happily tits on the Bri tish Throne, nor of any ioi . ingenient 'ln the principles of C o n6tiOitin”, in remarking that the tone of the Court ,Iceords ltit the feelings of the Ministry. I will !!rr, , , , tres pass no fur: her upon your time, hut sims.tnly th,;:ihing you for the fl.:ttering reception yott htoe given me en this occ:•- ' son, and for t' e support I have always been honoured with from a very ove r w h e l m i ng ma j or i ty of the electors of this district, I bog to drink to your very good health ; and at the same time I shall acquit myself of a duty no less agree able to me than acceptable to you, by proposing the health of my cld friend and that veteran in the cause of Refortn, your wprthy Chairman. The Noble Lord sat down amidst thunders of applause. DUBLIN.---SATURDAY. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) " It is ilot a funth:mental part of the settlement at the Re volution, that the State should be Protestant, without any qualificltion of the term."—nui he's cr to Sir 11. Langrishe. And so the most intelligent and candid of our Tory ad versaries ere now beginning to discern and admit. In this part of the empire et least these signs of the times are be coming more and more manifest every day. It has been already stated through your journal, that the faction in this country are not so sanguine as to the result of their late manoeuvres, as their organs would represent them. Whatever may he their efforts on the opening of Parlia ment to diminish the number of the people's representa tives, you may rest assured that their expectations of an immediate restoration to office, and to the distribution of the loaves and fishes, are considerably diminished ; that is, for some time to come. An opiuien, however, is becoming preva lent here, that the party are contemplating a new diversion in their mode of opposition—namely, to submit to a mo dified settlement of the Tithe Question and Corporate Reform, in order to break through the phalanx of Re formers of every shade and opinion who are united on the policy of those measures for Ireland ; and having thus dispersed in some degree the forces of the present Minis try, to trust to chance and variety of sentiment on other national questions for a majority of votes in the Commons against them. Should they so far succeed, they think their union amongst themselves, and their superior skill in ruling by partiaanship, would enable them to carry on the business of Government. In -fact those persons most capable of judging of passing events, and whose observation is least. biased by hope or fear—and they are very few in the upper classes of society —say the Whigs are entirely dependent for their continuance in office and exercise of power on those popular principles already mentioned, connect e d w i t h t hi s country : if this ground - were once cut from under their feet, they would -be no match for the tactics of the Tories. And, accordingly, the latter arc beginning to reflect on tht good policy of giving way a little in those matters. As evidence of this the speech of our Recorder, the Right Hon. Frederick Shaw, on presenting the new Lord Mayor this day for his Excellency's formal approbation, is worthy of notice. Amongst other things, strung together in a manner so discursive, recommendatory, dictatorial, and authorita tive, as to betray the Right Hon. Gentleman's great incli nation to be the alpha and omega of the Irish Government, is the fallowing sentence :—" With regard to Ireland, all parties and all persons should, above all things, desire its tranquillity, and feel a common interest that to the utmost practicable extent thepeople should enjoy the same . laws and right's and plivileges as the most favoured portionof the United Kingdom—provided only that security be taken that they shall be allowed to use, and not deluded or driven to abuse them." Now, coupling these sentiments with the views of some moderate men above alluded to, it seems more than probable that Mr. Shaw and other shrewd ones of his party are strongly inclined to surrender their ultra and ex clusive policy, as the only means of attaining that " share in the commonwealth" to which they believe themselves to be so pre-eminently entitled. Besides common sense, as well as even a slight knowledge of the spirit of the Laws and Constitution of these realms, must convince them that these measures, for which the people are cla morous, ought not to be longer withheld, Seventy-five, out of one hundred and five, representatives and advo cates of a nation's privileges must not be disre garded. Sir Robert Peel and the Recorder of Dublin know right well the danger and consequences of a refusal of the kind ; and however anxious they may be for the resumption of power, they must see its impracticability, till questions, to which they have been so hostile heretofore, are settled to the satisfaction of the majority of the people. Hence it is that the latter has sounded, if I mistake not, precisely the same note of surrender that Derry Dawson and the Duke of Wellington proclaimed in the year 1828 re specting emancipation. At the last adverse discussion of that question in the Lords the Noble Duke gave no vote, but left the house, after observing, that, if he could see his way, he would be most happy to assist in the settlement of the question. He had said the same thing respecting Irish Corporate Reform just at the close of the last session, and it is no wonder Mr. Shaw should be now betraying a dis position to chime in with his opinions. Everything por tends the approaching consummation, for which Ireland has so nobly struggled. But the friends of a liberal Govern ment, whose concessions have not been wrested from them, should be on their guard—taking care not to be content with slender offerings, which are only meant to delude them. The spirie of Orangeism is still rampant in Ire land, as daily occurrences but too clearly prose ; and were the Tories restored to power to-morrow, its ascendancy would prevail. If the present Government relax, as same persons susnect they may, in pressing forward in the next. Session of Parliament the Irish Tithe, Corporation, Poor-law, Registration, and other Bills for the amelioration of this country, and her elevation to the condition of Eng land ; or if they sit down content with carrying only one or two of these measures, they will hear of complaints which are at present suppressed, and they must undoubtedly make way for another term of Tory domination. lf, on the con trary, they persevere in the course chalked out for them, es regards this country, which more especially demands their care, and whose wants and condition alone sustKil thc they may reckon upon a much longer tenure of office than their adversaries, and some few of their friends, now calculate on. If they can wrestle successfully with the surrounding them necessarily for the ensujp six months—. and among these difficulties petty .iol - ,Ving and intriguing for patronage after the old fashirn, in this country, are not the least—they are safe, an s.; will soon have gained over to their side the most resiiectahle and influential part of the community, in ad.,lition to the multitude. The Protestants of moderate opinions are daily inclining to Whig, in pre kronen to Tory, policy for Ireland. A signal instance of occurred here this week. The Conservative Club of St. George's parish wrote to a respectable gentleman for his subscription towards the West and Hamilton Election Fund. He wrote them a long and sensible letter, to account for his refusal of their request, in which, among others, was the following sentence, to the truth of which I have long since given you my humble testimony :—" There are m filtit u d es of o7.ol)trus - ive, noiseless persons, who are of the same opinion with me on these matters, and who doubtless are classed among the Tories, because they are not prominent among the Whigs. This is a fact amongst the people and their representatives : the Hon. Member for Truro (Mr. Turner) will not be the only one to corroborate it. Still, the Reformers must be on the alert ; as the obstacles - they have to overcome are of noThrilinary magnitude, and may by possibility be increased, if not vigilantly attended to." The Duke of Beaufort arrived at his residence in Park-place yor.terday from Heaton Park races, and, in company with some distinguished fashionable•, occupied a private i:nx at the o;ympic in the eveniog. Mr. and Lady Georyiana Codrington, sister to his Grace, arrived at the mansion of the Noble Duke on Sunday, from a tour in the south of France. Lord Suffield came up to the Clarendon, express from Lord Wilton's, Heaton Park, to give away his sister, the Hon. Miss Harbord, at the altar. The young lady was married yesterday, at 10, p.m., at St. George's Church, to Mr. George Edward Anson, of the Treasury, private secre tary to Viscount Melbourne. CONVEYANCE OF LETTERS.—Mr. R. Wallace having entered into a communication with the Post-office upon the best mode of facilitating correspondence, received the following letter :—" General Post-office, July 24, 1837. Sir—l beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 20th inst., and to inform you that the question whether bags of letters might not be sent by private stage-coaches has been submitted to the Lords of the Treasury, who have ex pressed their opinion that the principle may be safely adopted in any case where it may be deemed expedient, provided that the proprietors of the coach will agree to a stipulation in the contract for the service that the conveyance of the Post-office bags is not to relieve them from the pay ment of the tolls which may be chargeable. In regard to the employment of a regular guard, I cannot give any defi nite answer upon this subject at the present moment ; such an appointment must depend entirely upon circumstances.— I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient humble servant, " To Robert Wallace, Esq."

The German Scientific Association have selected Freiburg, in the G: end Duchy of Baden, as their place of meeting in September, 1838. Sir H. Halford has been re-elected the President of the Royal College of Physicians, and Dr. Monro, Dr. Latham, Dr. Watson, and Dr. Roupell, have been appointed the censors, for the ensuing year. M. de Talleyrand has, it is said, sold his collection of pietur2s to the Civil List, at a very reasonable price c - msidi:r:ng the large number of original paintings which it includes. A part of them has already been given up, and a first payment of 80,000 francs has been made. M. de Talleyrand has retained but a rem paintings of inferior value. The Ecclesiastical authorities of Cologne have given notice that in the course of the present month will be cele brated the 16th secular jubilee, in honour of St. Ursula and the 11,000 virgins, who, in the year 237, are stated to have suffered martyrdom in a field just outside of the city. The Emperor of Russia, by an Order of the Day, dated the 7th ult., has appointed his eldest son, the Czaro wicz, Colonel of the regiment of Moscow Dragoons ; and his daughter (l) the Grand Duchess Maria, Colonel of the regiment of Yckaterinoslaw Cuirassiers. The Grand Duke Michael is appointed to the command of the Twers Dragoons, and the Archduke John of Austria, Prince Au gustus of Prussia, and Prince Adalbert of Prussia, have severally received the compliment of boing appointed to the command of Russian regiments, Mr. ACLAND, M.l).—NN're perceive that this gen tleman was treated at Taunton to a dinner on Wednesday last, and that he, in return, held forth in favour of the fiction calling itself " Conservative." If the dinner were no better thin the Hon. Gentleman's speech, the amount o f sa tisfaction must have been miserably small ; for more frothy, stale, vapid declamation than the turgid torrent of Toryism which is reported to have poured from this gentle man's lips after dinner, we never read or heard. HEREFORD MUSIC MEETING.—The 114th meet ing of the choirs of Worcester, Gloucester, and Hereford took place in the latter city last week. The principal singers engaged were—Madame Albertazzi, Miss C. No vello, Miss Woodyatt, Miss Hawes, and Mrs. W. Knyvett ; Messrs. Bennett, Hobbs, Machin, and Phillips. Leader of the hand, Mr. F. Cramer ; conductor, Mr. Hunt ; con certo players, Mr. Lindley and Mr. Blagrove.

Paul, with a selection, on the third. Concerts were given each evening, and a ball on Wednesday and Thursday even ings. The receipts by the sale of tickets have been such as to require but little from the stewards to cover the ex penses, for all donations and collections at the cathedral are presented to the fund for the support of the widows and orphans of clergymen within the three dioceses, and do not reckon in the general receipts for tickets, &c., as is the case at most other musical festival. Miss Groves, the young lady of whose tragic powers the American critics spoke so highly, has arrived in Lon don. Since she came to town she has become the wife of Mr. Edwin Yarnold, a well-known ci-devant performer It has not transpired at which house she means to come out. I'IIUII,3DAY.

The Marquis of Hertford was still in Savoy when the last accounts left, in good health, to which the baths at Aix-les-Bains, had greatly contributed. His Lordship has abandoned the intention of proceeding to Milan, owing to the cholera still prevailing in that neighbourhood. I n the course of this week or the next he will probably return to Paris fora few NI eeks. The Countess Dowager Poulett returns to town for the season to-morrow. It has been stated in several of the papers that a certain popular comic actor, a recruit at the Adelpbi, re ceives 1201. a week. The actual sum is one-third of that amount, which is quite as much as any minor theatre can afford to pay. On Thursday M. Alexander Dumas read a new tragedy entitled Caligula to the actors of the Theatre Francais. The piece is to be brought out as soon as possible. On Saturday night last a young man, named Thomas Howell, barman at Mr. Hutchinson's, wine and spirit mer chant, Tottenham-court-road, committed suicide under the following circumstances :—His master had received infor mation which led him to suspect that he had been robbed by the deceased, in consequence of which he procured the aid of a constable, and demanded from his barman the keys of his boxes. He appeared much confused, but com plied. Upon Mr. H. going up stairs with the officer, the deceased hastily left the bar, carrying with him an old knife, with which he so effectually cut his throat, that he expired in three minutes. The body now lies at Mr. Hutchinson's house, awaiting the CorQuer's Inquest, which will be held W-P.lorrow.

We have received a file of Quebec and Montreal journals to the Ist ult., with a copy of the actual ad dress of the House of Assembly of Lower Canada, in answer to the speech of his Excellency the Governor in-Chief on opening the new session of the Provincial Parliament. The address published in the London papers of last week was moved in the House, but after a long debate it was negatived in favour of one of a still more democratical complexion, subsequently pre sented to Lord GOSFORU. There is, however, no ma terial difference between the published address, and the one actually presented, except that the language of the latter is stronger and less conciliatory than that em ployed in the former. The real sentiments of both, and the resolution to which they pledge the House, are the same. There are, however, some important topics touched upon in the actual address to which no reference is made in the document already pub lished ; and to these it becomes our duty to direct public attention. After some preliminary observa tions of no importance, the House of Assembly thus addresses his Excellency on the conduct of the Co. lonial authorities here : " We are bound by our duty frankly to declare to your Excellency, under the solemn circumstances in which we are placed, and after full and calm deliberation, that since the time when we were last called to meet in provincial Parliament, we have seen in the conduct and proceedings of the metropolitan government and of the colonial admi nistration towards this country, nothing which could re establish in the people the confidence and affection which the long and fatal experience of the past has almost de stroyed ; but that, on the contrary, every recent event has tended to efface what remained of these feelings, ar►d_ to consolidate, in opposition to the liberties, interests, and wishes of the people, the colonial oligarchy factiously com bined against them, and the hitherto unbridled and uncon trolled sway of the Colonial Ministers in Downing-street." To language such as this it is needless to call the attention of her MAJESTY'S Government. Ministers must see the imperative necessity of adopting deci sive measures for the removal of whatever abuses en gender such sentiments as are here expressed in the minds of the inhabitants of Lower Canada. The following attack on the Royal Commissioners is tinc tured with much bitterness of feeling : The avowal which it has pleased your Excellency to make to us, that the disposition of the authorities and of Parliament with regard to us, and the oppressive and un constitutional measures which have been the result, arc the. consequences of the recommendations made by certain pr e tended authorities, known by the name of the Royal Com missioners, has convinced us of the correctness of the opi nions we have heretofore expressed with regard to this com mission, which, constituted and acting under no law and without regard to law, and bound beforehand by its in structions to the partial views and narrow policy of the 13ri tish Ministry in the Government of the colonies, could not possibly co-operate in doing justice to the inhabitants of this province, and in establishing their institutions, their liberties and their prospects for the future, on the solid basis of their wishes and their wants, as well as on the principles of the Constitution. We were, therefore, in nowise as tonished at discovering in the productions of this pretended Commission nothing but preconceived opinions, prejudices at variance with its mission and its duty, ideas of govern ment founded on data utterly foreign to the country, or at finding it fomenting divisions and national distinctions, for getful of constitutional principles, calumniating the provin cial representation, and practising deception towards this House and the people. We are bound especially to no tice in the reports i❑ question, as far as they have come to our knowledge, one essential and paramount contradic tion which pervades every part of them, and forms their essence. It is, that while they admit the reality of the greater portion of the abuses and grievances of which we have complained, the Commissioners do not recommend their removal and the destruction of the causes which had pro duced them, but an act of aggression against this House, which has denounced them, and the absolute destruction of the Representative Government in this province by the illegal and 'violent spoliation of the public moneys of the people, by the Ministers or by the Parliament ; whereas it was the duty of the Commission and of the Mother Country to assist this House in the entire removal of these evils, and in rendering their recurrence impossible, by re constituting the second branch of the Legislature by means of the elective principle, by repealing all laws and privi leges unjustly obtained, and by ensuring the exercise of the powers and legitimate controul of this House over the internal affairs of the province, and over all matters rela tive to its territory, and the wants of its inhabitants, and more especially over the public revenue raised in it. In studiously throwing the whole of the blame of Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S resolutions upon the Com missioners, the House of Assembly affords the Impe rial Legislature a handsome pretext for rescinding them ; while, in solemnly averring the Report of the Commissioners to be at variance with truth, it justifies the Government in retracing its conduct. England is too confessedly great and powerful to be deterred by a false shame from correcting any error to which mis information may have led. An obstinate persistance in wrong, on the part of any Government, indicates weakness, not strength ; and is especially to be depre cated in the case of such Governments as pretend to exercise sovereignty through the influence of rea son, and the operation of the principles of popular representation. Moreover, it is but right that regard should be had to the feelings and opinions of the Canadians, however erroneous, on questions which relate solely to their own individual and social welfare ; and to prevent anything like a hostile collision bc tween the colony and the mothei country, En;: lani ought to make sacrifices even greate r than any yet - prayed for by the House of Assembly. When the majority of a Legislative Assembly concur in such It declaration as the annexed on the subject of Lord RUSSELL'S Canadian Resolutions—such As' sembly 11CPq composed of Canadian subjects—wo !nay justly condemn !,he policy that would not c oncur in a vote for rescinding them : " We perceive in this measure, on the one hand, a formai and total refusal of the reforms and improvements dee manded by this House and by the people, and on th other an abuse of the powers of Parliament for the purpose of destroying by force the law.; and constitution of the pro : vi)ce, of violating with regard to us the most sacred and etli olemn engagements, am t of thereby establishing imrn ately on the ruin of our liberties , a nd in the place o f tl s ie ietirnate, efficient, and constitutional co ntroul which th , itouse, and the people through it, have a right to exercise ovee all the branches of the Executive Gsveroment, corruption and intrigue, the pillage of the revenue' the seizure of the best resources of the country by a° Colonial functionaries and their dependa nts ; the dominre. tion and ascendancy of the few, and the oppression and sehr - vitude of the mass of the inhabitants of th is province, wit out distinction of class or of origin. " It is our duty, therefore, to tell the mother co untrY' ''ct that if she carries the spirit of these resoluti ons into eff c . e in the Government of British America , and o f this pro vin, in particular, her supremacy therein will no longer`cP e " il upon the feelings of affection, of duty, and of m al in" tereA which would hest secure it, but on physi cal and we' terial force, an element dangerous to the governing Pa rt y at the same time that it subjects the governed to a dept h of uncertainty as to their future existence and th eir d interests, which is scarcely to be found under th e most e* solute Governments of civilised Europe." We entertain too lively a confidence in the wisdom the Imperial Government, to doubt the effect wia ll this remonstrance will have upon the minds of the most influential members of the Cabinet. A m inority • we already know are prepared to recommend strait:, measures, but we trust no regard will be had to such recommendation. On the all-absorbing question of ° the supplies, the House of Assembly is e q uall y ex' plicit " Your Excellency acknowledges that the chie f object f°l* which we are now convened is to afford us an opportunity, by granting thossupplies, of preventing their b e i n g violent ° l i taken by an Act of the Imperial Parliament , founded II the resolutions already adopted. In the absence:of anY other motive for thus recurring to our authority, than the tardy consideration of the character of those resolutions, as well as of the Act of which they might for the basis, he r Majesty's Government might, we humbly conce ive, have t recollected that those resolutions are not our wo rk ; the we had already fully deliberated on the demand made to the by your Excellency ; and that while we have not before 00 any act, or even any hope, which can promise a mitigatio ; of the evils under which the people are suffering, we sh° 6 not be justifiable in placing in the hands of hostile poweto the means of aggravating and perpetuating those evils. " There could exist, then, no considerations but such might be dictated by a servile fear, foreign to our tor" date and derogatory to the character of the people, to I °' duce us to be wanting to our duty in the presen t instance, by ratifying the violation ef the rights of our constituents and of this house by the British authorities, and by tak icil on ourselves the responsibility of the consequenc e: u se might result from it. We leave this responsibility to th es e who have assumed it, and strong in the justice of o ur ca"se we rely, as we heretofore have done, on Providence, o° the public and private virtues of all classes of the p eoPleo on their constancy, their perseverance, and thei r attach" ment to the principles of order and liberty which, folio'," ins their example, we have unceasingly endeavoured t° maintain." With this extract we shall close our remarks on $ document of which our readers are now in possession of the substance. The answer of his Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor has already appeared in our columns. The Address was presented on the 26th Of August, and on the following day the Session was pro" rogued by Royal proclamation to the sth inst. The Constitutionalists have triumphed in Portugal , in spite of the treachery of the QUEEN, of her Ro y al husband, and of the principal personages at the Court of Lisbon. This news is as gratifying as i t Wag unexpected. From the first outbreak of SALDANN AS rebellion, we feared the worst from the weakness of the Cabinet, the imbecility of the Cortes, and the talents of the chiefs at the head of the insurgent s ' We were aware that if SALDANITA could once enta Lisbon, the QUEEN would declare for the Chartists and we 'likewise knew that the Duke of TERCEIRA only obeyed the injunctions of the PRINCE ROYAL , in appointing a rebel regency during the pretended compulsory imprisonment of her Most Faithful lqA" JESTY. It is therefore with no less surprise thaw pleasure that we have learned the total overthrow of the rebels, and the banishment of their pri" ci P e leaders from the soil of Portugal. Such a termination of a conspiracy, first plotted and matured in the Palace of the Sovereign, may teach an usef ul ' cow ! to Queen DONNA MARIA, and her despotical 0114 intriguing husband. The following are copie s of the official documents announcing the terminati on of the rebellion, as given in the Supplement to the Mow of the 25th ult. They will be read with l ivel y terest : " NORTHERN DIVISION OF OPERATIONS . ic Most Illustrious and Excellent Senhor—The re °f being desirous of covering and protecting the rearch columns,ttilrttoue o i si a e, were who bt l y s, with t i i s etsi m ioev o ci enilglew oy , frp t od o ra o cidss k p: ui u tnti p gii en g a t oh positiontetihmlce,r moving laosysaia i n n grignen l r ipoin : cf n r; out path. It was half-past seven when our advance l P re d in front of the bridge of Ruivacs. Having reeonn the enemy's position and the distribution of his force, perceived the difficulty of carrying it by a forward In've.. ment. At nine a.m. my columns were formed, and I directed Brigadier-General Mendez, with his brigade of inf ant i r a Y i consisting L.sb of the 9th, 10th, 13th, and Municipal Guar",. Lisbon, to make a long detour, by which flank movemeo"- obtained a height which completely commanded those °acad.' pied by the enemy, virtually' turned their left flank , ii// c i took them in the rear. During this movement the se"" brigade of infantry, tinder Colonel Musquita, ing of the 6th anti Null, and Municipal Guard o f °port a ' • occupied the centre with eouadrons of the 6th cavall in reserve ; and Colonel VoniGere, with the 4th a n sth Cacadores and 19th Regiment of Infantry ands eta, Lancers, was stationed so as to observe the bridge of Ruivaes. We remained stationary until 11 :Lin, whento calculated Brigadier-General Mendez would be c 1°56 , - 0 the position he was directed to occupy. I thou tLe orders to attack the enemy's left, and which movement most ga ll a nt Viscount Sc de Bandeira volunteered t or. rect, a nd assisted me much with his personal exertioin,B and able counsel. The 6th Infantry and part o f t consist.. 18th in the centre, the 4th and sth battalions of Cacty dures, followed by the L anc ers and 19th Infantry, pr.ce,e; pitated themselves in the most gallant style upon the I.:gnu of the enemy's positions, and notwithstanding they werr most determinedly defended, the ardour of our troops ea; rigid them in a.. moment, cut through their centre , 0 7 swept all away that opposed them. At this mom e n t Brigadier Mendez appeared, and the action became g!' nerd!, our advance consisting of Colonel Musquita's Bra gade and the 6th Cavalry. When the rebels percetve d. that their flank was turned, and their rear threatecii they instently abandoned their positions, and • disperse_ ail directions ; the fugitives were constantly harasare sed u r .Y . te our Cacadores.
