Adam and Charles Black, Edinburgh ; and sold by all Booksellers, THE WEEKLY CHRONICLE. The Proprietors and Editors of this Paper are desirous, on the eve of the MEETING OF A PARLIAMENT so important to the principles of FREE TRAMS, to call the attention of their Subscribers and of the Public to the claims of the WEEKLY CHRONICLE as the Advocate of an enlightened Policy, on all questions which relate to our industrial economy, and to the political progress and social happiness of the People. The Weekly Chronicle has, from the period at which it came into the hands of its present Proprietors and Conductors, faithfully and firmly supported these principles—seeking at once to carry them out without violence or personal rancour, and to establish itself in the respect, not only of its Readers, but even of its Political Antagonists, by a strict regard for Truth and Fair Play, on which grounds alone, as its Editors feel confidant, can any well-intending party be ade quately and successfully supported. As a Newspaper, the Weekly Chronicle will be found to contain a larger quantity of carefully compiled and well digested reading matter. than any of its contemporaries ; and it has ever given, and will continue to give, the fullest digests of the proceedings in Par liament, consistent with its limits, which are of the largest size re cognised by law. The importance of this in the coming session must be evident; whilst in early intelligence of Political Movements the Weekly Chronicle will maintain its lead, possessing, as it does, peculiar and exclusive sources of information, which its entire independence from personal influences and party trammels, enable it to give without mystification or reserve. One of the features of the Weekly Chronicle are the popular Letters of COTTON TWIST, principally devoted to questions of Free Trade and Industrial Economy, and of which a Third Series were commenced with, and will be continued from week to week throughout the present year.

Office, 337, Strand, London. 410/Milt LONDON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1846. Two days more will bring us to the beginning of a session of Parliament which promises to be of an unusually eventful character, and to which, with various emotions of hope, fear, distrust, the whole nation looks forward with almost unexampled inte rest. Not certainly since the carrying of Catholic Emancipation has the first day of the session been the object of so universal or intense an anxiety. What is to be done with the corn-laws is yet a mystery, and will probably remain so for some days after the first day of the session. It is al most a part of the prerogative of the QUEEN'S speeehes to tell nothing, and stifle meaning in generalities; and the Government will probably claim the right to reserve all explanation that could give any clue to the character of their intended measure till the day of its formal proposal. Sir ROBERT PEEL will keep his supporters in ignorance till the last possible moment, and then try to carry them by a coup de main. He can depend upon his Opposition at any time, and on the shortest notice, if he is about to pro pose total, immediate, and unconditional repeal. And, notwithstanding some ugly signs of a contrary character, which, however, admit more or less of explanation, we retain our be lief that he will prepare a measure calculated to obtain the support of the whole of the Opposition. If Mr. B. DENISON, after seconding the Address, should oppose the measure, his West Riding con stituents will before then have :emphatically declared their approval of it by giving him Lord MORPETH for his colleague. The selection of the Members for South Lancashire and the West Riding, to move and second the Address, has all the appearance of a direct appeal to the free-trade hosts. Then, again, why the delay and difficulty in finding a mover and seconder for the Address in the House of Lords ? No seconder, it appears, has yet been found, though we are within two days of the opening of Parliament ; and the selection which has been made of a mover (Lord HosiE) itsel. indicates that there has been a difficulty in obtaining any Peer of standing and influence. The Duke of WELLINGTON, too, has adopted the unusual plan of summoning the Conservative Peers to their duties. All this looks as if there was nut an, entente cordiale between the Government and their supporters in the Upper House, and that is where the shoe will pinch if free trade is to be Sir R. PEEL'S watchword. The political arithmeticians calculate that for a free-trade measure Sir ROBERT PEEL may calcu late on a majority of about twenty in the House of Commons. He can depend, it is said, on ninety Members on his own side, but no more, to follow him whithersoever he may lead. Reckon 250 supporters from the Opposition, to be added to the ninety, and that will give a majority of twenty-four in a House of 658 Members. Sir ROBERT PEEL may, and pro bably will, carry a thorough free trade measure through the House of Commons. He has no chance of carrying a half-measure. With the Lords he must take his chance in either case : and he has as much chance of winning Conservative Peers to free trade as to any minor tampering with protection. Indeed, they will probably be of the same mind with the Ox fordshire farmer, that "it is better to be drowned at once than ducked to death." But, apart from, and above all questions of carrying measures and retaining power, if Sir ROBERT PEEL looks to his own permanent reputation as a statesman, there can be no doubt as to the course which he will adopt. Half-measures have been his system hitherto, There have been enough of them, and he has now bold power long enough to be able to judge of their success. The new sliding-scale of 1842, the tariff of 1842, the Sugar Bill of 1844, the tariff of 1845—have these satisfied either friends or opponents? Nave they gone far enough in the application pf right prinpiples to win for him the confidence of the people ? Have they pot gvie top far to preserve for him the confidence of those who brought him into powftr? His ly.te Tesignation has placed him in a new position, in which he is free and disengaged frpm all his former party shackles. He po been born again i tot IP her that 4 new Fnliey will be the first fruit of his regeneration: What if he fail in his attempt to give free trade to the people of England : his defeat in such a cause will be more glorious than all the party victories which his skill as a tactacian has ever achieved for him; and to have endeavoured to carry free trade in accordance with his own convictions, will, even if he fails, be hereafter infinitely more pleasing to look back upon, and infi nitely more conducive to posthumous fame, than to have preserved power . by skilfulness of tactics, and fora few years longer kept together, in seeming union, the discordant elements of his party. In animadverting on the strange maxima put forth by the American PRESIDENT in his Message to Con gress, M• GulzoT said, "We admire what is great and noble in the American institutions. The United States will exercise an immense influence on the des tinies of the human race, and no one can be asto nished that we watch their progress with a vigilant eye." The vast and rapid increase of this republic is a matter of common observation, but, in fact, it is only commencing its career, and the effects of its future progress in regard to France, as well as every European state, could not fail to excite the apprehen sions and vigilance of such a sagacious Minister as M. GUIZOT. This progress is calculated to excite still stronger apprehensions when combined with the intimation made formerly by MUNROE, and repeated by PoLa, that America will suffer the inter ference of no European power—in other words, that she will continue to extend her frontier by encroaching on her neighbours, that she will add new states to her Union, by foul or fair means, sub mit to no arbiter in any disputes that may arise, and exemplify to the fullest extent the law of the impe rious conqueror—" Sic volo, sic jubeo." Hitherto, all the conquests made by this rising power have been made peaceably : we mean without having re course to force of arms, if we except the wars against the helpless Indians of Florida and the West, but they have generally been accomplished by taking advantage of the weakness or necessities of some European power, or by the most deceitful policy. The mode in which Texas was acquired is certainly the most reprehensible of all. France, by a strange oversight, recognised the independence of that country in 1833, and in 1840 England followed the mischievous example. They induced Mexico to accede to their views, and no sooner were these points carried than the Texians, so intimately allied with the United Statqs, and who so completely deceived both England and France, threw off the mask and carried into effect the secret contract made with the rulers in America. On this score, therefore, Mexico has a great claim on the sympathy and protection of these tw•o great powers. She has been robbed through their means of an important district, which formed a barrier against the south-west States of the Union, and Mexico Proper is now laid open for inroads from any quarter. The comprehensive scheme is in active pro gress ; California is the next conquest, and unless speedy and effective measures are adopted, that de fenceless and divided country will be completely hemmed in by numerous tribes ofAnglo-Saxons, owing allegiance to the United States, and sure of protection from them in every lawless adventure. In the whole history of the world there is no instance of a young state rising to such gigantic power in the same period and by similar means. But the progress is going on with fearful rapidity. An extension of territory is at present the rage of the whole nation ; one party has its eyes fixed on Canada and Oregon ; another on California and Mexico ; and a third on Cuba, St. Domingo, and Jamaica; and unless European powers show more spirit and energy, and more regard to self-preservation, the re sults may be of the most fearful importance. The mercantile shipping of the United States, with only one side of the American continent open to it, stands next after that of England, and is every year increasing. What, therefore, will it be when not only the Atlantic, on the east, but the whole Gulf of Mexico, on the south, and the vast expanse of the Pacific, on the west, furnish the most certain means for extending it to every quarter of the globe ? When California and Oregon are sufficiently peopled, and the astonishing and rapid increase of settlers in the Mississippi, the Ohio, and other western States, shows that the period is not far distant, they will have for the field of their commercial operations all the islands in the Chinese and Japan seas, and even the numerous possessions of England in the Southern Archipelago, including Australia, Van Diemen's Land, and New Zealand. Oregon of itself is comparatively nothing, but, as a means to an end, is of the very first importance, and England cannot give up one inch of her territory in that quarter without sacrificing her best interests, and exposing her commerce in the east to manifest danger. Humane persons are constantly crying out for peace with America, and exclaiming against wicked rulers, who would go to war for a barren strip of uncultivated territory, without for a moment looking to the consequences, and forgetting altogether the awful calamities which will be inflicted on the human race by the annexation of Texas, and the further pro gress of American encroachments in the south. At present the slave population of the United States amounts to three millions ; in a short time it will probably be doubled, and independent of the corporeal sufferings of this enslaved race, we shall thus behold some six millions of human beings in one country, who are by the acts of the Legislature debarred from the light of truth, and absolutely prohibited even from learning to read the Bible. By one of these Acts, it was declared felony to teach a slave to read and write, England has generously contributed to the emancipation of her own slaves ; but, is she guilty of no crime in standing by, apparently unconcerned, while the horrible system is daily in creased, and slavery is approaching, by rapid strides, towards her West India possessions ? England and France now incur a fearful responsibility, and their conduct at this crisis will be severely scrutinised by future generations. Madrid journals of the 11th inst. announce that the two sons of Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA, Don HENRIQUE, and Don FRANCISCO D'Assis, hal left Madrid agreeably to the orders of the Government — the former for Ferrol and the latter for Pampeluna. On the previous day an explanation took place in the Chamber of Deputiestrelative to the affair between Senor ORENSE and General NARVAEZ. After some discussion the result was, that Senor ORENSE, acting under the advice of the President, withdrew the offensive expression, and General NARYAEZ, being appealed to by Senor CASTRO Y ()Bosco, declared himself satisfied therewith in the name of the Go vernment; and a vote of thanks was subsequently carried unanimously to the President and the Go vernment, on the motion of Senor PocA DE TOGORES, an Opposition Deputy, for the part they had taken in bringing about the amicable settlement of the matter. The Funds continue to decline. On the 10th the Three per Cents. closed at 331 for cash, and 331, 1 at 60 days; the Five per Cents. at 23 11-16 at 60 days. The debate on the Address in the French Chamber of Peers was brought to a close on Friday evening, when the Chamber divided, and Ministers had the large majority of 97. The numbers were — For the Address Against it.. 23 , Majority The papers contain brief comments on this result, but, they are without interest. Government can always reckon upon a large majority in the Peers. In the Chamber of Deputies the discussion on the Address was fixed for Monday. The Journal des Debate, in replying to the charges made against the Government, relative to the operations in the River Plate, makes the following defence ; "The Government," it says, "is reproached with having suddenly abandoned the policy of neutrality which it had followed since the, year 1840, on the banks of the Plate, to unite with England in an armed intervention. But this change of policy is not a pure caprice, or, as it has been asserted, an act of complai sance to England, or a further sacrifice made to the cordial understanding. This change of policy is ex plained by the change which has taken place within the last two years in the state of affairs. It is ex plained by the prolongation of the contest be4reen Op two America n S tates , an d b y the disorders occa sloped by the ci v il war .

These Bills are, first, those granting concessions which were left last year under reports of Com mittees, viz., the Bordeaux and Cette, Mulhouse and Dijon, and Paris and Rennes roads. Then come three new ones : one, relating to the Caen road; the second, the continuation to Limoges and Clermont of the Chemin du Centre; and the third, the Vitry-le-Frainais and Gray road, instead of the canal in this direction proposed last year. The Government appears to have resolved not in future to grant any but direct concessions (grants on the responsibility of the Minister, and without tender); and according to all probability, the Caen, Rennes, Limoges, and Clermont roads, will be given to the Rouen, Versailles, and Orleans companies, as being prolon gations of those railroads. The following are the railways which are to be opened to the public in the course of 1846 :—The Northern.—The sec tion from Paris to Pontoise is to be open for circulation in a few days ; that from Pontoise to Clermont, and from Cler mont to Amiens, in the month of May. The section from Amiensto Lille will be given up to the Company en May 1, and can be opened to the public in a month after. Orleans to Tours.—The first section of the Bordeaux line will be opened in the month of March. Nanterre to St. Germain.—This is the atmospheric line, and it will be opened in the beginning of May. Orleans to Vierzon.--The opening is fixed for the month of August, but it depends on the works at the bridge over the Loire, commune of St. Jean-le-Blanc. The section of the Lyons line between Dijon and Chalons will be termi nated this year, but it will not be opened before 1847. The Journal de Loiret states that the viaduct of the Vier zon line, at Orleans, appears destined to the same fate as that of Barentin. One arch, it says, has given way, and others are cracked.

In the Place Bellecour a thief snatched a lady's shawl from her shoulders, and escaped, as it was impossible to pursue him. The Grand Council of the Canton of Berne met on the 12th. The question of the revision of the constitution was agitated in the first sitting. Three opinions were expressed. One, of the Conservative party, rejects all revision as dangerous at present, and as opposed to the majority of the will of the people. The second opinion, which aims at revising by a constituent, had for organs the members of the Grand Council, who convoked the popular assemblies, and amongst others, the President of the Court of Appeal, M. Funk. The third, which, confining itself strictly within the bounds of the constitution, calls for a revision only by the Grand Council, was defended by four speakers, one of whom was a Councillor of State. The Government appears taking measures for eventualities in case of attack. It is almost certain that if the Grand Council rejects the wishes of the popular assemblies, Berne will be invested by the populations of Seeland and Oberland. The other cantons, apprehending a crisis which would affect the rest of Switzer land, have sent delegates to study the situation and follow the discussion of the Grand Council.

MEETING OF PARLIAMENT..—SIR ROBERT PEEL'S PLANS.—We have reason to believe that Sir Robert Peel will announce to the House of Commons, on Thursday evening, that it is his intention to lay before the House of Commons, on the ensuing Monday, a full statement of his financial and other plans for the session, The country will, therefore, soon be in possession of the nature of the changes which Govern ment contemplates with reference to the tariff; and great practical convenience will undoubtedly arise out of so early revelation.—Herald.

Real del Monte Unregd. MR. GLADSTONE. We (Nottingham Journal) last week made some remarks relative to Mr. Gladstone's retirement from the representa tion of the borough of Newark. In the course of those re marks we stated that the electors of Newark disapproved of the Right Hon. Gentleman's conduct with regard to the Maynooth grant, and that he declined to oiler himself for re-election in consequence ; and we also surmised that 00 probable- future commercial policy of the G overnmen t hot been not without its weight in bringing about the separa tion. We have since received the following letter from ?d r ' Gladstone on the subject of those remarks, which we consider it right to lay before our readers : "TO THE EDITOR OF THE NOTTINGHAM JOURNAL. "Sir,—My attention has been drawn to an article in yoo paper of the 9th. Such an article, written in a local paper' I cannot consider as an irresponsible and merely anonyin° °S publication. The tone also in whi c h it i s compose d— a tone of extreme, and I fear unwarrantable, f avour t o myself—must give weight to such statements as it contains in regard to mere matters of fact. " It states that my vote in favour of the Maynooth en nee Bill has either wholly or in great part led me to retire from the position of a candiate for the representation of Norio" and that the future commercial policy of the Government 1 10 also had its weight. " Allow me, Sir, respectfully, but most positively to 10 0° you, that neither the Maynooth College Bill, nor any corn' mercial policy of the Government, past or prospective, n° l other public question, have had the smallest effect in deter' mining my conduct. " The motives by which I have been influenced have Va il exctusively of a personal character. " I have the honour to remain, Sir, "Your very obedient serv . ant, "W. E.
