Entirely do they forget (if ever they knew) that in that difference, slight as it may appear to them, are involved all the *laments, all the principles which make the difference , to the w o rking man, between struggling and com fort. protia t: n the truthful fact cannot be too loudly T s 11 th'at t oo deeply felt, too firmly acted upon— . b ut at few loaves of bread shall be greatly c.eap er, a, ale at every other article of expenditure alone bee re d ucedr educed in proportion.

Therefore the pauper dowagers, the feeble Ladies CONSTANCE and the feebler Ladies PLANTAGENET, and the Honourable Misses—amiable Sexagenarians !—ought to know that if public charity pensions, .eeds, and lodges them, it is out of the poor man's labour that their ease comes. To know this, by such a reflective process as -thought, is far beyond the mental power and calibre of the faded flutterings of illustrious mortality whom, in this audacious article (as they will call it), we have brought into public view. Small matter as to the rich may appear the dif ference between sixpence and a shilling in the price of food—it is all-in-all to the masses. It is much that the labouring man may now—thanks to PEEL" give untaxed food to his family ; but it is more, by far, that the reduced rate of food necessarily brings (indeed, must bring,) a reduction in all other prices. The rich chiefly think of what most interests them selves, namely, the maintenance of Rent. But if 10s. a week of wage s go as f a r now as 153. would ha ve gone ten years ago, merely by parity not only of reasoning but of practice, twenty shillings per acre, from Rent, should go as far as thirty shillings per acre used to go ? The landowner must not reap more than his proper share of benefit from the altered condition of things. Ile, also, is greatly advantaged, in his expenditure, by Free Trade ; his household ex penses are a third less than they used to be ;—what claim has he, also, besides this gain, to have the additional advantage of undiminished rental from his land? If to him , a s to others, twenty shillings be of as much value, in exchange for articles of consump tion, as thirty shillings used to be, why should he be so unjust as to expect and demand the larger amount from his tenants ? To sum up the argument in one land.more Itnor interrogation —Why does he not reduce his Rents Protection, if it mean anything now, im plieswloeussld than be ea k sy eep t i e n rent nothing of thekeeping up how and why this is—b u t we can give the explana tion on a future oc • casion. Meanwhile, we ask any man of common sense , whether the DEBBY Ministry, including as it does a clever leader and many clever followers, all of whom must know the actual state of can dream things, of maintaining, as a vital principle) that Protection which has naturally and properly graduated into something nearly as immaterial as the famous Cock-lane ghost, which, some eighty years ago, challenged the evidence and alarmed the imagi n4t:on of SAMUEL JOHNSON, the author of that Dictionary, by which, single-handed, pitted against the Academie of France, (to quote GOLDSMITH'S graceful compliment)— " He beat forty Frenchmen, and would beat forty more 1" No, Protection is defunct. Not all the force of fifty PAUL POSKETTS, OT a hundred GEORGE 'REDERICK YOUNGS, can put it on its legs again. The twenty-seven millions who form the population of the United Kingdom will not stultify them selves by consenting that landlords may keep up their rents to tidy a shilling for the sixpenny loaf. They might assent to abstract reasoning, but when it comes to paying two sixpences for one they naturally decline all accedence to the experienced theory. Are they not right ? Ask the mothers and the chubby-cheeked children ! What is the cui bono of these remarks ? Only this, that whoever may continue to cherish the ex pectation, vague as vain, that the Earl of DERBY and his Cabinet will bold on by a shred of Protection, will be awfully disappointed when Parliament meets. A lively quadruped confidentially confided to Cap tain HIRAM SMITH, of the Kentucky sharp-shooting rifles, that he was " a gone coon," and requested him to spare his powder and shot as he (the racoon) meant to come off the tree and be killed and skinned quietly. Protection may make up its mind to be decently abandoned and interred, being voted " dead and incapable," by common assent I Nobody thinks of cherishing the deserted orphan ! Everybody votes it defunct—if not dead it ought to be—and of all people in the world, the DERBY Ministry are most anxious to assist at its funeral, to prove its " last will and testament," and to administer to the effects of the dead and gone deceased. it is defunct, and neither Lord DERBY in the Lords, nor Mr. DISRAELI in the Commons, wishes for its resurrection. We can readily imagine what a nonplus these brilliant gentlemen would be at, if (by accident), the elections had vita lized Protection! They want to have it dead—it is a terrible barrier against them. At all events, they will treat it as a defunct " party," and act as its executors. An excellent resume of the recent Chancery and other Law Reforms has just been issued by the Me tropolitan and Provincial Law Association, which, from its clearness and fulness, is entitled to every commendation. It is a common, and ought to be an exploded error, that lawyers are opposed to law re 'form. Of all persons, professional men are the best fitted, by actual knowledge and experience, to sug gest practical improvements in the theory and work ing of the Common and Statute Law. Without going back too far, we may mention that J EREMY BENTHAM, who sought to introduce common sense into law making, was himself a lawyer--that SAMUEL ROMILLY, so long at the head of his profession, la boured earnestly and strongly for the reform of the Criminal Law—that HENRY 13 nounnam, whose efforts as a law reformer have gained him unfading honour, has effected his chief improvements by reason of the experience gained at the bar and on the Woolsack —that Lords DENMAN, LANGDALE, and CAMPBELL have taken leading parts in the same good cause; and that the Law Amendment Society, which has sug gested and supervised many of the legal changes within the last eight years, is princip a ll y , th oug h not wholly, composed of gentlemen of every branch of the profession. The association whose Circular we have now before us consists exclusively, we believe, of solicitors and attorneys—men who, in general, are supposed to have a direct interest in the maintenance of a cumbrous, and expensive, and dilatory system of jurisprudence. But, as stated in their Circular, " every real improvement in a court of law is certain to be followed by a corresponding increase of business." Indeed in law, as in trading, the cheaper the article the greater the demand for it. In Equity, during the past Session of Parliament, three important Acts have been carried, by which it is hoped that some of the principal abuses in the prac tice of the Courts will be abolished—abuses, " for the removal_ of which," says the Circular, "the Committee have earnestly laboured from the first establishment of the Metropolitan and Provincial Law Association." Pint comes that havey'haitnhd Chance the abolition of the office of Master in officers.

The Committee, there fore, felt it to be their duty to call the attention of both Houses of Parliament to this, and prepared a clause for in creasing the number of Judges, which was moved when the Bill was in Committee in the House of Commons, but rej-cted. A report has reached the Committee th a t it i s t h e i n t ent i on o f the J u d ges t o do but little a t c h am b ers; b ut t h e Committee canno t belie ve t h at the Judges will pursue a course which would inevitably defeat the intention of the Legisla ture, and the fair expectation of the public."

Committee re The changes in the that in their opinion all th ese " 4 " , Prltetke of the Court wi ll be of : great advantage to the suitor, with the exception of the provision which substitutes printed for written bills or claims.

All the other provisions of the Act will diminish expense, prevent delay, and simplify the procedure. The Suitors in Chancery Relief Act, which substi tutes salaries for fees, is another excellent measure. Our regret is that in all cases this principle has not been carried out. It extends now to the Common Law as well as the Chancery Courts, and there is no reason why in Bankruptcy, also, the of ficers should not be salaried. The reduction of the number of official assignees, leaving one to each court as treasurer, is desirable, and the retiring allowances, compensations, and salaries to retiring as well as remaining officials can be paid, without any charge on the Public Revenue, out of the immense ' accumulations from Unredeemed Dividends in bank rupts' estates. It is only justice to add that some of the leading clauses in the new Equity Acts were suggested, years ago, by the Association whose Cir cular we have been considering. The further Law Reforms of 1852 are contained in the Enfranchisement of Copyholds Act, the %Vills Act Amendment Act, the new County Courts Act, and the Common Law Procedure Act. On the two last, the Committee report rather fully. On the 10th section of the County Courts Act (15 and 16 Victoria, c. 54), which allows "a barrister to appear for a party, although not instructed by an at torney," the Committee report that," without benefiting, but rather prejudicing, the suitor, it inflicts an in jury upon the profession;" and they give a detailed and curious history of that segment of legislation which, they remark, " will certainly not tend to in crease the disposition of attorneys to regard the question as finally determined." They complain that with scarcely any notice, and without a due oppor tunity of expressing an opinion on it, by the public or the profession, an organic change in the position of the two branches of the legal profession was passed through Parliament. Our own opinion, repeatedly ex pressed here, is that it is for the interests of both branches of the profession that barristers and attor neys should cordially co-operate. But the manner in which some attorneys had united, in local courts, for the purpose of monopolising the whole business, to the exclusion of the bar, was fast tending to create dissension among barristers and attorneys. Nor can we think that, by the section in question, the interests of the attorney will be injured. So long as the attorneys give the barristers their fair proportion of the business, they will find no intrusion on their department. Law Reform must advance, and in the spirit of the Speech from the Throne, at the close of the session, which said—" Every measure which simpl ifies t h e forms, and diminishes the delay and expense of legal proceedings, without introducing uncertainty of deci sion, impairing the authority of the Courts, or lower ing the high standard of the judicial bench, is a valu able boon conferred upon the community at large." There must be sweeping changes in the Ecclesiastical Law, involving the total abolition of the tribunals which have earned such unenviable reputation. The Bankruptcy system must be made simpler in its pro cesses, speedier in its work, and less expensive in its charges. Courts of Law and Equity must be amal gamated. Until these changes take place, the public will have continued cause for thinking that, as now administered, law is not jusiice. Variable as the accounts received from the pro vinces have latterly been in reference to the ap proaching harvest, it happily appears at the present moment in the highest degree probable that the crops, in the majority of instances, will be of rather more than average excellence. Sunshine has so rapidly succeeded the excessive moisture of the past week or fortnight, that hopes are reviving in parts of the country where the most painful anxiety has hitherto been experienced. Accounts from Essex state that the harvest in that direction is already making fair progress—the corn cut during last week having now been all housed, the warm weather having effectually dried the sheaves on Sunday. A considerable portion of the crops in Kent have in like manner been got in— while a better feeling is gradually reviving in Sussex, as well as in Suffolk, in consequence of the sudden cessation of rain, and the steady rise in the baro meter. Had the wet lasted much longer it is tolerably certain that much of the produce of the land would have suffered irrepa rable injury. As it is, in the fens of Lincoln shire, especially in the more loamy soils, the m ildew has effected much damage—besides which the rapid and almost simultaneous ripening of the crops in other directions, has caused a different kind of solicitude—namely, that as to the possibility of obtaining labour adequate for the emergency. An illustration of the necessity was afforded only the other day by the employment of a body of soldiers to assist the agri cultural labourers in reaping—thereby figuratively changing the sword into the sickle, if not the spears into reaping -kooks. From the latest information received from various parts of the country we are rejoiced to announce, therefore, that the future proba bilities in regard to the harvest of 1852 are of the most propitious character. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The filoniteur announces that two treaties have been signed between France and Belgium by M. DROUYN DE LUUYS on the one hand, and MM. Ro- GLEE and LIEDTA on the other. One of these treaties gives a reciprocal guarantee for works of intellect and art, at the same time lowering the duties imposed on books, prints, engravings, &c. ; and the other makes some reductions in the duty now imposed on a few Belgian articles. These two conventions are to be ratified on December 10, and, if agreed to, are to be in force from January 1, 1853. They are con sidered as the prelude to immediate negotiations for the renewal of the treaty which has lately expired. The same journal states that the French Govern ment has received intelligence from Constantinople, of the 10th, announcing that FUAD-EFFENDI has been nominated Minister of Foreign Affairs, and that every satisfaction has been given to France in the affair of Tripoli. It also denies the truth of the statement made in the Morning Herald relative to this affair. Cardinal WISEMAN is at Cambrai, where on Sun day last he led a procession of the miraculous picture of the VIRGIN, said to be painted by St. LUKE ; also a miraculous image of the VIRGIN which, according to tradition, caught in her apron the balls of a be sieging general. Both these pieces justicatives have been solemnly placed—the one in the church, the other on the ramparts. In the procession a number of young maidens in opera-girl muslin, with wings glued to their shoulders, personified angels. Amongst the relics was a monster crown, given to the Church by that monster King Louis XI., whose crime and superstition have been ren dered familiar in the " Quentin Durward" of SCOTT. Military bands accompanied the procession. That the spectacle did not take is acknowledged by the writer from whose enthusiastic account, addressed to the Government journal, the Patrie, we borrow these details : " In a word, the procession was admirable, and leaves far behind it anything that the most brilliant secular jubilees could have attempted. It would have been sub limef had th ere been or actor or spectator the pious and mthusiastic people of three centuries ago, instead of t which u'. _ there wasthe population of the nineteenth cen tury, s w ee " p b ti i c ts .„ bar en curiosity, sometimes mocking, and The Archbishop of CAMBRAI and the Bishops of NEITERS and mense s body of rrits were also present, with an im menseforeigners present was Among the number of entered the Catholic Church.

M. MARCHAND-ENNERY, grand rabbi of the central consistory of the Jews of France, died on Saturday last. The receipts of the different theatres, spectacles, concerts, &c., of Paris, for the month of July, amounted to 463,121 f. 35c., being a decrease, as com pared with June, of 225,103 f. 6c., and 555,189 f. 60c. less than in May, when the receipts amounted to 1,018,310 f. 95c. It must be, however, mentioned that in May all the theatres were open, while in July the Odeon, the Theatre Lyrique,the Ambigu, and the Gaite were closed.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at from 5,000 to 6,000 bales, of which 500 Atnet rican were taken on speculation. The market wlib - firm. The sales comprised 4,000 American, 600 Bahia at to nit, 400 Egyptian at 6d. to 9d., and 3011 Sankt at Vt. to 48d. per lb.—Railway Shares were Clull at lower prices. e• The Corn Market is firm to-day. The following report upon the Silk market is fur nished by Mr. W. Eaton: — "Since my report of the Ist instant the Silk market has been extremely quiet. China Silk, in the early part of the month, fully participated in the general inactivity, but during last week 300 T saltees, chiefly of good and middling quality, have changed hands, establishing a reduction upon the last quotation of about is. per lb. This, however, has not had the effect of inducing buyers to come forward as freely as could be desired, but that, I think, may be attributed more to the uncertainty at this season Rs to the class of goods that will be re quired, and to the wish to see the new Silk, daily ex pected by the steamer, than either to any supera bundant stocks or unhealthiness in the trade. In Italians some further sales have been effected at rather easier rates. In Bengals there is no new feature. About 500 bales will be landed in a few days. The letters last re ceived from Calcutta report the market as fairly active, and prices fi rm . Th e E xc h ange was th e re also operating against exports to England." The statement appended, concerning the health of the immigrants arrived this year at Quebec, is from a local source, and must be perused with great pleastire:— " We learn that the quarantine hopitals at Grosse Isle, where there is accommodation and bedding for , 2,000 sick, are, at this time, almost tenantless. The whole number remaining under treatment when the steamer Alliance came up, on Wednesday, being two men. While the New York papers have been filled with accounts of sickness and mortality , this spring, among emigrants (whom they often call foreign paupers), it is gratifying to notice the above fact. This season has been remarkable for the healthy state of the emigrants, and their freedom from the scourge of ship fever. This improved state of things is attributed by the medical superintendent to the amendments to the Imperial Passenger Law, to the excellent regulations of the Commissioners, and to the better class of passengers who now emigrate to our shores. The route to the far west by the St. Lawrence is likely to be generally taken by Germans and Nor wegians in future. Upwards of thirty vessels filled with them have arrived this season, and several are still ex pected." Bills of Exchange upon the foreign cities were mostly negotiated yesterday afternoon at about the previous rates, ninety-days' paper being taken at 25 478 to 40 on Paris; 12 01 to 1 on Amsterdam; 13 91 to k on Hamburgh. Trieste was a shade lower, being-12 6to 11. The meeting of Portuguese bondholders is now taking place at the London Tavern, and their committee have submitted a very elaborate report concerning past pro ceedings. The result, judging from the temper of the meeting will, we apprehend, be the passing of deservedly stringent resolutions against the government at Lisbon. At the Newmarket Railway meeting just held, the chairman in his speech made a very flattering represen tation as to the prospects of the undertaking when the dew line of 14 miles is made, an d which complete the chain of communication. M r.i Pane anticipates h very satisfactory dividend, and thinks ultimately sof 6 per cent. will be realised. The total cost of the new line will be very small, and all the working expenies are scrupulously kept under. Consols look up again, ancl, we have essentially wea th e r me.elfete.
