TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH Th G, OF GREENWICH. ewspapers of this day will convey to you t he decisi on of the Courte nentlemenof Exchequer on the action brought against me for having sat and voted as your Representative in the House of Commons. I trust every Elector, and, indeed, every Englishman, will carefully read 1418 decision.pour Judges have given their opinions—one in my favour, three ilmtist me. One o f th e L earne d Judges decides that I lawfully omitted h o e m ,, W 2fda —" upon the true faith of a Christian ;" the three others an oosite view, leave me liable to the most grievous pe t-I;sueS of the pp law for that omission. I therefore hardly know whe panlairti addressing you to-day as one enjoying the rights of an t:.*: . ‘"throan, or as a Popish outlaw, deprived of the ordinary pro -Von afforded by the Constitution. Were we now livi ng in the times when the law by which I ant `,•!aentned was first rassed, I should feel the sentence weLhing very ggadinl on my mind ; but, relying as I do on the intelligence and moral feeling of the country at large at the present day, I do I.22_t_ fear that a s en t e n ce so repugnant to equity, justice, and truth, possibly be carried into effect. Can there be a greater misa.p laleation of law and justice than that an act intended solely against pa pists and Jacobit e s o f bygone days, who either could or would ~, take the Oath of Abjuration, should be used against me, who e ,_aworn to every part of the oath, with the exception of the Z.—" upon the true faith of a Christian ?" the terms of the decision I have become a Popish recusant eon '''. Will the people of England, will the constituencies of the pli. permit such a perversion of justice as this very name_ Mt 74 Vie, If the right of private judgment and the free exercise of con sciencea are to be denied to ant . British subject. let this be plainly f ; let England openly become like those despotic countries o farope in which It is a part of their written law that religious disa- Dillties should prevail ; but do not let us, by a stringent eenstruc tio clrat atutes almost obs.dete, virtually enac t disqualifying laws , u tterl y and entirely opposed to the spirit of the age and to the . n Corstittitioiisi tier which we have the happiness to live—a Constitutwhich .1 Pride and protection of every man born o n Britishsoil, and "'all never abridged the liberty of the subject unless it were neces sary for the safety of the State. With regard to the further legal measures to be taken in cones ,,'ltlence of this decision , I shall act as I may be advised. In refer- O ne ' t o my 'Position asyour representative, I leave myself entirely in ~ our Ends,- feeling assured t hat I have hitherto done nothing to for at confidence with which y ou have honoured me, and which i - „„', u , s t You will see no reason whatever to withhold when an oppor .7.Y shall again be afforded you for electing representatives of your important borough. I shall take the earliest opportunity of placing myself in personal ' Unieatwn with y ou , and to be, I have the honourGentlemen, Your obedient Servant, DAVID SALOMON'S. 3 , Great Cumberland -place, Hyde-park, April 20, 1852. BURTON PALE ALE, OR BITTER BEER. The BURTON BREWERS have requested me to publish a Solemn declaration, which they have made before me in my official capacity, and which they have left in my keeping, in answer to a chievous charge recently brought a ga i nst t h em to the effect mis that they use Strychnine in the making of their celebrated Bitter Beer. That a charge so absurd should obtain a moment's credence appears surprising to persons on the spot, who know that if ever a Manufactured article was free from adulteration, it is this whole some and grateful beverage. In fact, it is well known to every one practically acquainted with the process, and ought to be known to *very Chemist, not to mention learned " M.D.s," that nothing could produce the article in perfection but the finest malt and hops and the purest water, combined with the most scrupulous cleanliness and great skill in the manal acture. •. The BURTON BREWERS, in adopting this Rode of defence, lave been advised by cou nsel that it 13 the only legal course open to them, owing to the extreme vagueness of the charge. It would have been more agreeable to them collectively, or to any of them individually, to have met their calumniator in a court of law, where he would hame had every facility for mak rig good his charge, had it been capable of proof'. As, however, the opportunity of doing so is denied them, they think it due to the public, as well as to them „selvd, to repel the ealurhny in the most solemn form the law allows theta to employ. • • JOHN RICHA.RDSON, High Bailiff of the Borough of Burton-upon-Trent.

I Martiri,l Donizetti's celebrated opera, was brought forward last night, with brilliant.suncess. The drama is e lyrical version of Corneille's celebrated tragedy 'of Polyeucte, founded on the persecution of the Christians tiedsr the Roman empire. The scene is laid in the ca, pital of the Roman province of Arminia ; of which Felix is governor. - His daughter Pauline is the wife of Po lyutue, a noble Roman, who has secretly embraced the Christian faith. Polyutus and his tellow Christians are in the custem of pursuing the rites of their religion in the subterranean catacombs of the city. One of them, the nearest- friend of Polyutus, _is discovered to be a Christian, and to have converted a Roman to his faith. Though exposed to torture, be refuses to divulge the name of his convert, on which Polyutus publicly declares himself the friend and convert of Nearchus, and shares his doom. Pauline, hitherto ignorant of her husband's religion, and holding it in horror, visits him in his prison, and, being herself converted, becomes along with him and his friends a martyr to the faith, being thrown to wildheasts in the public amphitheatre. The first two acts of the opera are somewhat heavy; yet the ertsembk,was unquestionably most brilliant. • The opening scene ikin the catacombs, in which the Chris tiana are assembled for devotion. The hymn rung by them - in unison is plain; simple, and solemn. Pauline, attended by si number' of Roman ladies, comes to the same place to perform some r eli g ious rites at the tomb of her mother: They sing a hymn to Proseipine, the light character of which is well contrasted with the music ,of tho Christians. Pauline, left alone by the tomb, sings an invocation to her mother's spirit, an air of great beauty,and expression. In this air, Mdme. Julienne, thnnew.pritila donna, made her first impression" on the audience, which went on increasing to the end of tho.opere. This lady,, who is from the Grand Opera of Paris, is young and pleasing in appearance. H e r voi ce is a high and powerful soprano , very clear, and somewhit French in its quality and formation. She sometimes overstrains it, when it becomes too piercing; but it is a fine organ. and - she possesses brilliant and finished - exe cution ; with great energy and passion. While Paulina remains - by the tomb, she hears the Christian bymo at a distances and is about to fly in terror, when her husband and the Christians enter, and she discniers with grief and horror that he belongs to the hated sect. The situation forms the finale to the first act, which: is written with great breadth, vigour, and energy of instrumentation. In the second act, the pro coniad Severus makes his triumphal entry, One of the most splendid and beautiful pageants we have ever seen upon the stage, en which, as it seemed, the whole re • sources of . shit great establishment were exhausted. Troops, priests, lictoTs, musicians, filed past in endless succession, inabe,paidst of multitudes of, spectators; the. costumes of_ every class being admirably appropriate, Chen there wag a ballet for the entertainment of the' dignitary.. The music of the'second ,ct is not in a very happy vein. &passionate scene between Psalms and. Severus, which opens the third act, forms a sleet which contains many beanies,. and was very finely given by Mdlle.rulienne and Ronconi, whose whole pertormarce of the eharacterOf Severus was worthy of his high re putation. Still finer is the Subsequent scene between Pauline and her husband. The air sung by Tamberlik in this scene, "Supremo oggetto," is exquisitely tender, and deliciously accompanied by two violoncellos and the soft wind instruments. In the next scene. when Polyutus resolves to devote himself . to death for the sake of his friend, the air " Si audro net Toro tempio," was sung with astonishing energy, and received with reiterated scale matious from' all parts of the house. The prison scene between, the husband and wife in the last act con tains several beauties both of melody and expression At the fall of the curtain Mstdlle. Jullienne. Taucberlik; and Runconi were obliged to reappear, accompanied by Signor Stigelli, whose careful and correct execution of the music allotted to the secondary, but not unimportant part of Nearco, was of great consequence to the general effect. Mr. Costa was then unanimously summoned be•. fore the curtain. In the fourth act the great duet be tween Pauline and Poliutus renewed .the enthusiasm of the house. The last movement, " 0 sante melodist," was sung by both artists with extraordinary energy, and the sustained and reiterated high notes in the cadence gave a wonderful brilliancy to the climax. Not content with encoring the movement, the audience compelled Signor Tamberlik and Madame Julienne to come forward once again after the repetition. Mademoiselle Joanna Wagner has arrived, and will, we are infoensed, make her first appearance on Saturday, in thO Prophete, with Signor. Mario. ---_—:--_ THE COITN TRY MARKETS. IPSWICH, APRIL 20.

No. CCIX. THE YORK R WI Fri A GLANCE AT THE TWO. THOUSAND GUINEAS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. first day of the York Meting gave the sporting community some as pretty specimens of fine finishing ,as have ever been witnessed. The Craven Stakes was a small coup for the fielders, as Iris, on whom they laid 5 to 4, turned round at the moment the flag was lowered, thereby losing many lengths which she was not able to make up, and consequently finished a bud third to Radulphus, who beat Lady Agnes by a short neck. The Zetlaud Stakes produced one of the finest races that has ever been seen, as the Queen, Lambton, and Grapeshot laid close together the whole of the distance, the first named winning eventually from Grapeshot by a head, the same distance dividing the second from Lambton ; - Strait Jacket was beaten off. I think it will be found is future races that the Queen is much the hest of the lot, and that it was owing more to fine riding on the part of Marson and Osborne en the second and third horses that they finished so close to her Majesty. The Flying Dutchman's Handicap attracted to the post a. much larger, field than was expected ; the race was virtually, however, reduced to a match between Voltigeur and Haricot ; there was nothing else stood the slightest chance after a fourth of the dis tance had been traversed. lam confident that my *election,.Haricot, ought to have been the winner,. and that it was only the artistic jockeyship of Marson on Voltiged the' enabled the Derby wiener to beat the mare by the shortest of heads. Lucio, who was much fancied in town, finished a bad third, with that comical animal Koook Knoll, a worse fourth; the rest of the field were in a bundle Ogether, with that mysterious colter, Cyclops, bringing up the rear. _ Croupier won the Champagne Handicap from Sir Charles Napier cleverly; and, by Miss White beating The Setter and Co. for the Selling Stakes, ended the first days's racing at York. The betting on the Knavesneire was remarkable for the jack 7 in-the box sort of movements of Augur, who was ppping nt -- ottrit rangtng- from' 13 to 18 to 1, leaving off at 16 to 1 Nancy was in con siderable r. quest , with her admirers in the north, and backers of the stable only; they took the few twenties that could bo got, and afterwards offered to take eighteens. As I intend to devote to-morrow and the following day to an analysis of the Chester Cup, my remarks on the Newmarket Spring Meeting, except those on Monday's races, will not be published this week; therefore I will take the present opportunity of dropping a few hints on the eg• C C'~ -.- TWO. THOUSAND GUINEAS. Those horses that are certain non-starters are com prised in the following list :—Hugo, The Prophet, Magne, Sackbut, Merry-go-round, Dither gelding, Clsverhouse, Ilex. Lens, Canterbury, St.Alban,Winegnund, Houlakin, and Odd Fellow. Norham, colt by Slane, and Black stone, are dead. This weeding leaves me fourteen horses from which to select the field and winner. Fisher, of Newmarket has Greyleg; whether General Anson will think it worth his while to start her for this event I cannot say; but run or not his chance of winning is out of possibility. The •Wizard of the North, John Scott, will bring . a Daniel, ay e , a secon d D an i el. to judgment; and if my judgment does not materially mislead me, Mr. Bowes's chestnut son of Bird cate b er and Forget-we-not Da . will stand but little chance of b e i ng b eaten uncommonly strong in the G uineas this yyea': riming no less than five of the nominations in training, namely—Vortex. Geleon, Father Thames, Filius, and Stapleton. Which is to represent the stable the gods only know. Sir R. Picot will be sure to start one of his, which, as Filius is under a cloud, will pru bably be Father Thames; the hoary mariner can have but little chance of winning. Stapleton's running I doubt, and Geleon's likewise, so it will be seen that my ideas lead me to the conclusion that the short-worked Vortex will be the representative of the stable on the occasion. Vortex, it is reported, will do tolerably well for the mile ; they said the same of Cony egham some five years back, and as they were right then they may be so now with Vortex. Lord Exeter's couple, Stockwell and Ambrose, the former an interior horse, and the latter not up to the mark, will, of course, be nowhere in the race. I have no penchant whatever for the present favorite, Maidstone, notwith standing he is backed by the judgment of W. Butler and Captain Rous. It is said that on Tuesday next we are to have the first peep at the mysterious wonder of Peck's stable, Womersley. I, however, entertain doubts of his putting in an appearance, so shall for the present defer giving an opinion on his chance. Lord Ribblesdale's Lepidist, under the guidance of Nat, will make another essay over the Rowley Mile, with probably much the same result as last week. Kent, it i 3 rumoured, will have both Homebrewed and Houlakin at Newmarket; the former however will be the runner ; and as he has been proved in private to be very fast for a mile and under, he may perchance run forward on the pre ' sent occasion, though I scarcely anticipate seeing him the winner. Lea, but not least, we come to Hobbit) Noble, the flying son of Pantaloon, who for some eight I or ten days past the public have imagined will start for the Guineas; I believe, however, that as the ground is likely to be in as hard a condition next week as it was last, they will not risk a break down or spoil his chance en the Downs of Epsom by running him here. If he runs, of course he wins! • It will be seen by the remarks I have made, that in the absence of the Noble Hobble, DANIEL O'ROURKE is my champion, and that the leading horses in his I rear will be Homebrewed, Vortex, Lepidist, and Maidstone. I am, Sir, yours, &c., THE SPIRI r OF THE TURF. P.S. Redmond OilaTilon's victory at the Curragh over a large field, including Barbarian (the favourite at small odds), was so easily accomplished that his Chester Cup chant 3 must be considered one of a very superior kind.

A special meeting of the shareholders of the above company was held yesterday at the offices, Guildhall buildings. Major Tyndall (in the absence of Mr. S. M. Peto, 51. P., who wit , , from unavoidable circumstances, unable to be present) took •the chair. The meeting was for the purpose of having submitted to it the draft of a Bill (now before Parliament) for defining and regulating the capital of the Norfolk Railway Company, and for authorising arrangements with the Halesworth, Beccles, and Haddiscoe Railway Company, and for other purposes. The Bill, the important clauses of which were read by the solicitor of the company, proposes to enact that all the preference shares crested by the Norfolk Company, and also the guarantee by the company of the thsres in the Lowestoft Railway and Harbour Company, shall be valid in law, and that the elivideads on such several shares shall be paid in preterenee to and before any di ♦idend shall be declared and paid on the general capital of the company; and such several shares shall be classed and take priority as between themselves, according to the order of time in which the same have been createJ; that the Waveney Valley shares shall be prefer-. ence shares of the company, ranking after ell the pre f, rence shares of the company already created, and also after the Lowestoft Railway and Harbour shares guaranteed by the company, and the shares to be created under the provisions of the Act tor paying off the mort gage debt of the company, and shall entitle the holders thereof to dividends at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, but to no further interest or participation in the profits of the company. That it shall be lawful for the company, with the consent of three-fifths of the votes of the share holders present in person or by proxy at any general meeting or meetings specially convened for the purpose, to create preference shares for the purpose of raising such sum or sums of money as shall be necessary for paying Off or diecharging the principal moneys secured by mort gages granted by the company under any of the recited Acts, or for which they shall be liable at the time of the creation thereat; and such shares shall be called " Nor folk Rail Way Debenture Shares," and shall be the first charged upon the undertaking of the company subject only to mortgages remaining unpaid at the time of the creation of such shares, and shall be of such number and amount,tind entitle the holders thereof to such amount of fixed dividend, not exceeding 5 per cent. per annum, and Isbell be subject and liable to such terms and conditions with respect to the payment of calls, and to the redemp. tion or commutation of such shares, and otherwise, as shall be determined at any such meeting or meetings; and the dividend upon such last-mentioned shares shall be paid in preference to and before any dividend shall be paid upon the existing preference charges of the com pany, and the guaranteed shares of the Lowestoft Rail way and Harbour Company, and that the Norfolk Rail way Company, and also the Halesworth, Beccles, and kladdisene Railway Company, by and with the stalls* rite-attd-upprobittatt-ot -tbv44-4141i5-io- value a. the pros. prietors present, either personally or by proxy, 'at some general meeting of each of the said companies specially convened for the purpose, from time to time to make and enter into contracts or agreements ter working and using the railway, by the said Halesworth, Haddiscoe, and Beccles Railway Act, 1851, authorised to be constructed, or for the maintenance and repair, or for or in respect to the traffic passing along the same, and also along the Norfolk Railway, as the companies may deem advisable, subject to the provisions of the Railways Clauses Conso lidation Act. The draft Bill was sar etionpd, and the meeting broke up SHREWSBURY AND HEREFORD.—Yesterday tho first section of this line was opened from Shrewsbury to Lud low, upwards of 27 miles. The first sod was cut by Mr. W. 0. Gore, M.P., at Hereford, on the 10th of January, 1851. The remainder of the line, from Ludlow to Here ford, will be ready for traffic this time next year. The Government Inspector passed over the line on Wednes day last, and certified it to be suitable for opening. At eleven o'clock an express train, decorated with appro priate flags, banners, &c., and containing the directors and a select circle of friends, left the former station for Ludlow. On pa-sing the several stations on the line crowds of rustics cheered the excursionists; and when the train arrived at Ludlow the directors were met by the corporation of the borough, and thousands of anxious spectators were present. After the usual courtesies had been exchanged between the corporation and the directors, a procession was formed, and, preceded by a band, it pro ceeded to the town hall, where an elegant de:leaner was provided at the expense of Mr. Brassey, and of which the directors and their invited guests partook. A grand ball took place in the evening under the patronage of the Earl of Powis and several other noblemen and gentlemen. Mr. Brassey will work the line for the first 12 months, guaranteeing to the shareholders a dividead at the rate of per cent. _ BRISTOL AND EXETER.—Yesterday, in the Commit tee on Standing Orders, of which Lord Redesdale is chairman, the standing orders were declared to be com plied with in the case of this company's Yeovil Branch Bill. YORK AND NORTH MIDLAND AND EAST AND WEST YORKSHlRE.—Yenterdoy, before 'he Standing Order Committee of the House of Commons, the standing orders connected with the capital stock arrangements of these companies were dispensed with. WATERFORD AND LIMERICK.—The directors and their friends, in a special train, passed over the portion of this line from Clonmel to Limerick on Friday. The trip occupied about 90 minutes, and was performed in a satisfactt , ry manner. A dinner was provided at Litrerick for the party, arid the Mayor of Limerick and other gentlemen were invited by the directors to cele brate the event. STATE OF TRADE, (From' tho Manchester Guardian ut this day.) AlaectiESTEß, TUESDAY.—The Eurepa's dates ara to the 7th inst., from which it, appears that the firmness of the New York cotton market eras not at all diminished by retvi' es hence of the 24. h March, nor that of New Orleans by accounts of the 20tb, although both reported a declining tendency in Manchester, with a corres ponding dullness in Liverpool. The receipts at the ports had realised 2.841 393, being 455,983 beyond those of the same time last year; and the receipts of the week were 88,486 bales, or more than double those of the corresponding week in 1851. These receipts caused opinion on the other side still to tend to the hirgest estimates. These ac counts have contributed to strengthen the persuasion which has latterly gained ground on .this side the At lantic, that the large import we must shortly have is not likely to produce auyth ng beyond a small and very tem porary depression of prices, perhaps not even that—a persuasion founded on the smallness of the total stock in Liverpool, which is less by 202,400 bales than it was a year ago—on the very inferior quality of that stock—and on the prohnbility that the spin ners will be led by t heir want of a better as sortment to meet the ar rivals Kith a freedom which must counteract the effect they would otherwise produce on prices. The rouse queue is, that the buyers of yarns have come forward more freely to execute orders at the practicable rates of last week, especially for warps, coptwist, and pin-cops; and this, after the enlarged to 50's.

Brockithurst'a inside baud-loom weavers against the outside weavers of that firm continues, with no probability of termination at present, in consequence Of the latter body not giving countenance to the opera tive local board of trade. The Macclesfield nesnu!ac turers have found from three years' experience thit they could not continue to maintain fixed prices for weaving, and at the same time meet manufacturers of other towns in the market. They have therefore re linquished their support to the board. A large meeting of the weavers was held last evening, which was of a very abusive and, personal character towards the firm abovenamed. Thrown Silks—The demand for this ar ticle is a little improved, more especially fur sorts suitable for continental purposes. The throwstera are moderately supplied with work. Raw Silk—There is no alteration to note in prices. The overland mail from China last weak reported small shipmAits, and no silk at market.

GERMAN Y. An electric dispatch from Berlin, dated April 19, say :—" The opening of the Congress of the Zolverein took place to•day. M. DE MANTEUFFEL, President of the Council of Ministers, pronounced the opening discourse, in which he expressed a regret that cir cumstances had not permittefi Government to convoke the Congress sooner. At the same time be hoped that their deliberations would have for result the re newal of the Zolverein, and that it would be extended to other States, by means of treaties having for effect to draw closer the existing union, by creating new interests, destined to develope material prosperity. Colonel M.EIXNER, Bavarian plenipotentiary, replied to the discourse of the Minister; he . expreFsed a wish that Austria should be admitted to participate in the deliberations of the Congress, through the organ of a plenipotentiary ; but he indicated no precise period for that admission." The criminal prosecution against the mother and sisters of KOSSUTH has been stopped. They have re ceived authority to proceed to America. Count Buor. has entered on the duties of his office.

The works for the fortifications ordered by the Belgian Government at la Fete de Flardres, near Antwerp, were to have commenced on Friday ; but the men, dissatisfied with the wages offered them, re fused to labour. Having obtained possession of the sheds erected for them, they declared they would not give them up. On Saturday two companies of Light Infantry were ordered out. They loaded their arms in presence of the men, and then drove them from the sheds. About 300 of the men subsequently proceeded to Antwerp, w here they formed themselves into a procession, and paraded the streets singing " Malbrouck." At length they peaceably dispersed. SYRIA.
