In the House of Lords, yesterday, the D arr of NEWCAS- Tort presented a Petition from the Protestant Association, for the exclusion from Parliament of Roman Catholics. Lord BROUGHAM moved for several Returns connected with the Slavery Abolition Act, in order to show bow that measure bad operated. The LORD CHANCELLOR laid on the table, the Imprison ment for Debt Abolition Bill. After a lengthened discussion, the Bill was read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time, on the first Tuesday in December. It will be seen that Lord BROUGHAM unhesitatingly, and with his wonted energy, denied that his temporary absence from Parliament, or any other circumstance connected with him, (Lord Brougham,) had any thing whatever to do with the delay which has occurred in bringing forward the LORD CHANCELLOR'S Bill for Amend ing the Law between Debtor and Creditor. The Bill must have been postponed for some reason which the LORD CHAN CELLOR had forgotten, and not on account of his ( Lord B r oogharn'a) absence. And for such postponement, the Loan CHANCELLOR was exceedingly blameable. In the HOUSE of COMMONS, after numerous notices of mo tion :tad been given, for the particulars of which we refer to our Pari:amentary report, Lord JOHN RUSSELL called atten tion to the r. port of the Committee with respect to the busi ness of the noose. His Lordship moved, in pursuance of the recommendation of the Committee which sat on the subject, first, that " the Orders of the Day should take precedence of Notices on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays ; secondly, that on the question being p.ot front the Chair that the Order of the Day should be read, no amendment should be proposed except that some other Order of ;:he Day should be read ; but this should not imply to Committees of Supply or Committees of Wa y and Means; and thirdly, that no Notice of motion should be given in which the Motion Day was fixed at a more distant veriod than fifteen days from the time at which notice was given. The plans proposed mere experiments to make the proceedings of the House more regular, without altering much its ancient rules and practice, and he had striven to keep 'as much as possible within the old regulations, unless when lie found it was inconsistent with the spirit of the rules fur carry ing on the business of the House." The two first resolutions were agreed to. On the third being put, Mr. Hems and some other lion. ikfcraberß were of opinion that in order to secure all the consideration the im portance of the subject demanded, an adjournment was desir able ; and Mr. flilidlev did move that the debate be adjourned till Thursday next. On a division, however, the resolution was carried by a majority of _88; the numbers being, for the motion 354, for the amendment 66. Lord J. RussELL proposed that the election petitions, the consideration of which now stood, pro forma, for Dec. 12, should be fixed for a day after the Christmas holidays, his Lordship stating that he intended to move the adjournment till the beginning cf February. r some cveisation cn the cnhieet, it was arranged be . tweenthe NoLle Lord and Sir R. PEEL, that some day in Fehrtary should be fixed for taking the petitions into con eitleration. On the motion of Mr. llAwrs, a Select Committee was appointed to inquire into the Metropolis Police- oflices Act. Mr. Ilar:Es obtained leave to briar* in a PAH to relieve Quakers, who might be elected members of Corporations, from takirig an oath not to use the authority of their office for the injury of the Church, and to substitute a declaration for such Quakers instead of the oath ; they (the Quakers) having a conscientious objection in takiug an oath. the motion of Mr. IlAavny, a return was ordered of all pensions granted under the provisions cf the Acts of 57 Geo. 111 , c. 6, 5 George IV., c. 4, and 5 William IV., c. 24, showing what pensions have been granted from the passing thereof, with date of each grant, and which of them are now in force ; al.() what further number of pensions might have been granted by virtue of the said statutes. Sir R. BATEsos moved for a copy of a circular issued• by the Irish Government, regrrdin . , the demand of the payment of Is in Ireland, per day from those who call in the constabulary forces n Ireland, which was agreed to. The House adjourned at a Quarter-past Seven o'Clock. The House of Commons was chiefly occupied, dutingr its short sitting last night, in discussing the merits of certain regulations proposed by Lord JOHN RUSSELL for the better conducting of the business of the House. Such have been the irregularities which Lave gradually crept into practice, that without some alteration in the course pursued by Ilon a Members for the last three or four years, it is quite impossible to get through the public business without protracin ,, t h e s: rings to a very late hour of the night, and the ses sion to a very late period of the year. Now it cannot be denied that these are two very serious evils, both to the Members themselves and to the interests of the coun try. It would be a superfluous task to attempt to spew that the health must suffer severely,. if gentl emen w h o have been employed perhaps from nine or ten o ' c l oc k in the morning to two or three in the afternoon on Committees, in laborious investigations, arc obliged to resume their labours in the House, at four, and continue them without interruption, till long past mid night. The human constitution must undergo a very material change, before it is proof against the wear and tear of such a system. In fact, the strongest frame must soon be shaken by the effects of so great THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1837. are those ,of a religious, a political, or a criminal nature, we beg leave to disclaim the two latter only, for we do tint, cannot believe, that your Lordship's objection to reinstite us in ceir farrrn and native homes arises from any religious consideration. " Then, my Lord, us to politics, our defence is as conclusive as it is brief; we never possessed the franchise; we all were tenants at will ; we never, mediately or immediately, directly or indirectly, aided others in the exercise thereof. " But, if we be charged with crime and moral geilt. we at once repel the allegation, by a direct reference to our Ceunty Calendars for the last 60 or 100 years ; to the records of the Petty Session's Court, held weekly in our district ; to the tes timony of the neighbouring Gentry ; and finally, to tU autho rity of our Rev. Parish Priest, whose certificate of our moral conduct during the last 23 years is hereunto appended. We admit, my Lord. that our neighbourhood had been for sonic short time disturbed by the illegal deeds of a few vicious indi viduals ; but we humbly submit, my Lord, that the peaceable and well-conducted ought not to be involved in the infamy and penalty deservedly incurred by the guilty. " We beg leave to subjoin a thble of reference to the re spective Plough Lands on which we live ; the length of our residence and that of our forefathers thereon ; the number of acres we hold, and the rents we assumed ; the number of our families, together with other circumstances that bear upon our of this House, for any person or persons to impeach, or to wi fel::: and deliberately call in question, the right or title of any Member to a seat in th:s House, otherwise than by a petition, duly presented, according to the existing laws and regulations of the House. " 2. That, by the existing laws and regulations of the House, the fight if petitioning, in cases of controverted elec tions, is confined so such persons who may claim to have bad a tight to vote, a right to be returned, or who may allege themselves to have been candidates at the election complained of ; and that for any ether person or persons to procure or in stigate the presentation or prosecution of any petition against the return of any Member of the House, or to maintain the same with money, is contrary to the law, and a violation of the rights and privileges of the House. " 3. Thai a confederacy of persons, for the purpose of exa mining into the merits of any petition or petitions which may have been presented, or which it may be proposed or intended to present, against the return of any member of the House. and of deciding whether the same are or are not of a just and desers ing character, and founded upon good grou..vls, has a direct tendency to intercept, diminish, degrade, and even ren der nugatory the powers and jurisdiction of this House, is sub rsive of the regular course of public justice, is a contempt of the House as a court of judicature, and a gross breach of its rights, privileges and prerogatives. " 5. That a confederacy of persons, for the purpose of raising throughout the country public subscriptions in aid of petition; against the return of any Members of this House, and the application of such subscriptions, or any part of the same, for any such purpose, is a high crime and misde meanor, an invasion of the freedom of election and the liberties of the subject, and a violation of the rights and privileges of this House. " 5. That it be referred to the Committee of privile g es to inquire into the particulars of a meeting alleged to have been held at the London Coffee-house, Ludgatehill, on the Oth of August last, at which Andrew Spottiswoode, Pi inter to her Majesty, appears to have been in the chair ; and also to inquire into all the proceedings consequent upon such meeting, and to report the same fully to the House, and that the consideration of all petitions affecting the Returns of Members of this House be deferred, until after the Committee shall have made their Report." This is the only constitutional step that has yet been taken to defeat the SPOTTISWOODE con spiracy ; and if the Reform party in the House of Commons be true to itself and to the country, it mast be successful. The SPOTTISWOODE conspiracy, including, as it does, most of the Conservative Mem bers of the Home of Commons, is clearly a combina tion of the judges who are to try the justice of certain constitutional proceedings, against the defendants. The subscription of a single penny to defray the expenses of any petition against the return of a Member of the House of Commons, by an .individual unconnected by any tie but that of faction or fanaticism with the place for which such Member has been re turned, ought at once to invalidate the Petition. We are, of course, presuming the acceptance of such sub scription by the petitioners. Now, what in the world do the boarding-school misses of London know about the merits of our Irish Election Petition ? Whence do they derive a right to contest the legality of Irish elections ? As for the youths of Oxford and Cam bridge, it would be more creditable to' them to pay their tradesmen's bills than to waste their pocket money in an attempt to overthrow the independence of the House of Commons. In the mean time, we trust that the Reformers will seriously reflect upon the condition to which any neglect of duty on their part must reduce the representation of this country. The Tories are striking at the very root of the inde pendence of Parliament. Were they to succeed they would themselves be the greatest sufferers; but the corruptionists are too blind to sec any result but the immediate prospect of their restoration to the emolu ments of office. case. "We have done, my Lord ; our destinies are in your hands ; we confess that hope still mingles in our despondency; and we, therefore, throw ourselves and our afflicted families, amounting► to one Ivindred and fifiy six children, cr two hun dred and forty seven members of our families, on your Lord ship's merciful consideration ; imploring you net to sever a connexion of landlord and tenant, which has now exi3ted be tween your Lordship's family and the families of memorialists for over a century ; and memorialists will EVER PRAY. " TESTIMONIAL OF CHARACTER. " Reference being made to me by memorialists, I feel it due to their character to certify, that I know each and all of them intimately well, and that for the last twenty-three years that I have been Incumbent of this parish, I never had to censure their conduct individually or collectively ; on the contrary, I invariably found them to be men of good moral conduct ; of peaceable, sober, and industrious habits ; and much esteemed by their late Landlord, Henry Gillman, Esq., of Rork House. "J. A. O'SULLIVAN, P.P., Kinneigh." Upon this heart-stirring appeal to the humanity— the justice of Lord BANDON, we shall adopt tl►e com mentary of our able Contemporary - the Southern Re porter. It is an appeal which must reach to the heart of every high-minded gentleman in the United King dom, no matter what may be his party, his politics, or his religion : " A relation of Landlord and Tenant appears to have subsis ted between the 13andon family and the occupants of this tract of land of six generations ; the tenants are stated to have been frugal, improving and industrious; the expiration of the te nure of their immediate landlord, Mr. Gillman, of Rock house, has not been followed with any dilapidation or other injury, which too often occurs under such circumstances, and no facts have come to our knowledge which would seem to warrant the dissolution of a connexion of such long standing. The tabular statement referred to in the memorial is not ma nageable in a newspaper publication, and we are therefore obliged to omit it ; but facts appear on the face of the docu ment which are deserving of notice. Thus, it is mentioned that one tenant has been 43 years on the estate, his father having been previously an occupant for 30 years ; another te nant is 45 years on the land—his father had been on it 80 years, his grandfather GO years, his great grandfather 70 years ; in short, this tenant is the sixth generation on the pro perty. Another tenant has been 44 years the occupant of a farm, which had been held by his father and grandfather ; another has been 50 years in possession, his father and grand father having both preceded him as tenants; another occu pant, now 88 years of age, has been 44 vears tenant on the estate, on which his father had resided for 80 years, his. mother for 100 years, and his grandfather for 80 years. We shall conclude this reference to the tabular statement by men tioning, that Maurice Costello,!of Cappeen, has resided 60 years on the property, on which his father lived 60, his grand father for a similar period, and that this tenant, who is now about to be ejected, has made the substantial improvement of erecting a new house and barn on the farm. " It is under such circumstances that two hult.‘!red and.forty seven'persons of all ages, including one hundred and fifty-six children, are, it is said, to be expelled from their habitations and farms at this period of the year; an inclement season ap proaching, and thrown houseless and homeless on the country, in a condition of affliction and despair. " The whole statement, if not so well authenticated, would have struck us as utterly incredible. The occupants in ques tion were tenants at will, had no electoral franchise, and could not, in reference to that subject, have incurred the displeasure of the Noble Proprietor. As to the cause assigned— that the Noble Lord had formed the determination of " never letting an inch of ground to Roman Catholics," it must surely be a misapprehension. A depopulation of the country must be one of the consequences of large landed Proprietors forming and acting on such a determination. Other consequences may arise, fearul to contemplate, and to which ob one can be in sensible." Among the notices of motions for Monday next we find the following by Mr. BARING, upon the prompt appearance of which we heartily congratulate the Government :-- " That a Select Committee be appointed to consider the present state of the Communication by Railroads, so far as it affects the regularity and convenience of the transmission of letters, and the Post-office in General, to ascertain on what terms mails arc now conveyed by the railroads in operation, and what measures it may be just and expedient to adopt for the purpose of securing to the public, in future, the benefit of the conveyance of the mails by railroads." Thu next instance of the wholesale ejection of Catholic tenants by their landlord is detailed in the Wexford Independent. The proptietor, in this case, is stated to be a clergyman of the Established Church, the Rev. Dr. QUIN, of limy, who is reported to have actually depopulated a whole village because the inhabitants were Catholics! A correspondent of that journal thus details the completeness of this horrible act of priestly extermination : " Limbric, of North Wexford, has been voted a blank in the list of villages—the spot on %hich it stood now presents but the wreck of its existence—its inhabitants, full one hun dred souls ! were forced at the point of the bayonet to seek re fuge in the neighbouring mountains, because, unhappily for their temporal interests, they were Catholics 1 So completely was the system of extermination and persecution in their re gard carried into effect, that not one neighbouring tenant on the estate of the Rev. Doctor could be found, on the night of their ejection, to afford them, even for that night, the shelter of a roof! The miseries of those unhappy beings, some of whom have since perished in the ravines of Croghan mountain, while the rest are wanderers on the face of the earth, may be imagined, but not described ; and so heart-rending was the scene of their ejection, and the consequent and immediate de molition of their homes, that even members of the Police force, who assisted in producing the legal havoc, actually shed tears while engaged in the stern execution of their duty. But they were Catholics, and therefore have they been exter minated." It is now so:n.! weeks since a report reached us, that immediately after the late general election in Ire land, a meeting of landed proprietors and their agents was held at the residence of an Irish Nobleman in a southern county, at which it was resolved that the per sons there assembled would take every opportunity of ejecting Catholic tenants from their estates, and that in future they.would refuse to let their lands to per sons professing that religion. We could not at first give credit to such a statement, and we yet believe it to he greatly exaggerated, although the recent conduct of a few Irish landlords goes far towards ratifying the truth of every syllable of it. There may be—rather there are —in Ireland, a few intolerant bigots in possession of extensive landed property, who, in the blindness of their fanatical zeal, would prefer seeing their estates a waste, to seeing them occupied by a happy tenantry differing from them in religious opi nions ; but the majority of the landlords of that coun try can»ot afford to imitate them, were they even not restrained by worthier and more to:erant motives. Moreover, it is not always just to echo a cry of op pression against a numerous and influential body of men, without a careful examination of the alleged grounds upon which it is raised. There are many instances in which a tenant might be ejected for non payment of rent, for neglecting the cultivation of his farm, and for an invasion of manorial rights, when, in a highly excited state of public feeling, it would rip pear to a cursory observer, that he had been expelled for the advocacy of certain political or religious opi nions. A bad tenant would likewise find it more for his interest to pass for a martyr among his neighbours, than to be known only as an idle or dishonest man. But there are cases of oppression, of which the dry de tails substantiate a pre-determination to commit them on the part of landlords or their agents ; and two such— we scacely know which to call the more atrocious—are mentioned in the Irish journals received on Monday, but to which we found no earlier opportunity of ad verting. The first we shall notice is the ejection of the Catholic tenantry of the Earl of BANDON from his Lordship's estates in Ireland, the particulars of which we find in the columns of the Cork Southern Reporter of the 16th inst., and for the authenticity of which our Contemporary states that he has the authority of three Magistrates, of whom two are Protestants. Ac cording to the documents published at the instance of these gentlemen, the Catholic tenants of the whole of that part of Lord BaNDoN's estate recently held by :qr. GILLMAN, of Rockhouse, amounting in all to two hundred and forty-seven persons, have received notice to quit their farms without delay, as it is the determination of his Lordship that no Catholic shall in future occupy an acre of laud under hint I Of the unhappy peasantry thus about to be cast on the wide world, in the depth of winter, there is said to be not one who was not born in the cottage which he now occu pies. The following is a copy of the memorial ad dressed by them to the Noble Earl, and which would not have been made public had his Lordship vouch safed an answer to it These acts of cruel oppression—unexampled out of Ireland—are submitted to the calm consideration of the people of this country. We cannot believe that Lord BANDON is himself cognizant of the sufferings thus about to be entailed on his tenantry. It must be the work of some heartless agent—some undcrstrapper, high in the confidence of the Orange Institution. In deed we believe that in - nine cases out of ten in which the Irish peasantry - ere unjustly oppressed, the land lord is entirely unacquainted with the injustice perpe trated in his name. But is he therefore guiltless ? By no means. Did he not neglect his tenants—were he not constantly absent from them—such cruelties dare not be exercised. We find in the Augsburg Gazelee of the 18th inst. a continuation of the correspondence between Sir E. LYONS, the British Ambassador at the Court of Greece, and M. RuptiAßT, Minister for Foreign Affairs. In answer to the declaration of the British Minister, that the Government of Greece overstepped the limits of its constitutional authority, and was guilty of a violation of inter-national law, in ordering M. USIGLIO out of the country, protected as he was by,a British passport, M.'lluptiAnT, in his second letter, says : 7 -- .6 I have already had the honour to tell you, M. le Chave lier, that M. Usiglio was a native and subject of Modena, that it could not depend on a British mission in a foreign country to deprive him of that quality and invest bins with another, which should be of force and value in another State, by the mere fact of having been pleased to furnish him with a pass. port ; that this passport, calculated at most to protect the in dividual in question from the inconvenience of being without the necessary papers for undertaking a journey, could not, at least in Greece, have the force you imagine, nor relieve him from the immediate action and authority of the police of the country ; and as to the visa of the Greek Consul in Malta, even if the functionary who affixed it had not committed a fault in so doing, that visa, which only facilitated the introduction of the person, could certainly not have the effect of maintaining him in the country, contrary to the wishes of the police, who may have reasons for not permitting Isis stay. s * ‘; The Government has the right not to consent that foreign subjects, and those moreover expelled from their own country, should enter and reside in these dominions, under shelter of a pai-:sport to which they can have n., right, though it may have pleased a foreign mission, for certain reasons, to d e li ver it t o - them." " TO THE RIGHT HON. JAMES, EARL OF BAND ON. i Ni iswith the deepest sorrow th a t we , th e undersigned on that part of your Lordships' E s t a te, v tenants n situate in the Loan—lt It parish o f Ki tm eigh, make this appeal to your Lordship's high-mindcd a nd honourable feelings ; for we will not conceal from your Lordship the fact, that a report, emana ting from highly Conservative quarters, brings to our cars the melancholy assurance of your Lordship's determination " never to let an inch of ground to Roman Catholics." W e are also informed, that charges of tuoral guilt and insubordination are, ley interested persons, sent forward to your Lordship against us. " To avert a resolve which would necessarily consign us and our families to all the horrors of pauperism, we humbly best , ech you , my Lord, by the charities of human nature, by the s y m _ thies of tenancy, which for six generations have li n k e d us an d our fathers with the Bandon Estate, and by the virtues which ranked your late Noble Father among the best resident land lords Ireland ever saw ; by these, my Lord, a n d by every other motive which may exc ite y our com p assion, we i mp ore you, first to hear our plea of innocence of any charges that may be urged against us. • " As the only accusations we can by possibility anticipate T. this answer the British Minister rep Les This disposition to undervalue an English passport, to cavil at its validity, and to limit the sphere of the British protec tion, comes with a very bad grace from the first Minister of Greece, who cannot but know that thousands of Kir.g Otho's subjects owe their property and existence to English passports of the same nature as that of M. Usiglio. Really, Sir, if such a s .ntiment had emanated from a Greek it would have provoked on the part of herMajststy's Government a revocation of that pro tection i but I trust, and feel convinced, that her Majesty's qa4 vernment, tinder OW PPrsuasien that there is not one Greek who, by participating in such an act, would repay by ingrati tude what England was done, in concer t with her allies, will allow this circumstance to pass in silence, as has already been done with respect to more titan one anti-national act, and will continuo to hold out the hand of friendship to regenerated Greece. With respect to yourself, Sir, your gratitude is due exclusively to Austria and Bavaria ; but you cannot expect a departure from the course in: by nature, and approved by common seusc. But how are the interests of the Public consulted hr such a mode of managing its affairs ? It is, surely, not asserting too much to say, that the people have a right to expect that their repr,scntatires will bring to the discussion of questions involving the IA elfarc of the country their best faculties in their best state—the fresh and healthy ener i 7. - ,y of the minl, before it is worn out and I exhausted by laborious exertions. Yet this the people can seldom if ever obtain, according to the present actice. The rules which the House adopted last night, and for the details of which we refer our readers to the debate, will, we think, do something to remedy the evils complained cf. One great good, we anticipate fcom their observance is that they will tend to check, 11 not to cure, the itch for talking with which so many Honourable Gentlemen have lately been infocted. The extent to which this propensity towards eloquence has been carried is really alarming. Orators of all grades and descriptions seem to think that they have been sent to Parliament for no other purpose than to talk ; and that he is the greatest man who talks the most. If Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S ex perimental resolutions (to nothing else than correct a theory so false and dangerous as this, they will pro duce a very beneficial effect. The time of the public will he saved, and the quality of the oratory will be infinitely improved, by a wholesale diminution of its quantity. Long speeches, like great books, have ever been reckoned great evils. They have been pests of society in every age. " Vain words," and " words without knosk ledge," sadly tried the patience of JOB. The . lively and talkative Greeks found them such an ob struction to the despatch of business, that they were driven to the necessity of inventing a machine to mea sure out time to their pleaders and orators—even the staid, dignified, and less loquacious Roman was forced to follow the example—but it would appear all in vain, for we find the greatest of Roman orators, with the benefit too of a Greek education, contrived to spin out a speech against a peculating Proconsul longer than BROUGHAM'S celebrated long speech on law reform, and probably as long as O'CONNELL'S six hours' speech on the Repeal of the Union, with SPRING RICE'S six hours' reply tacked to the end of it. The case, indeed, does appear, at first 'sight, very hopeless, and no wonder the collective wisdom were sadly puzzled last night to find a remedy. Lord JOHN RUSSELL tried his hand, so did Mr. HUME, and Sir ROBERT PEEL, and Lord STANLEY ; but with so little effect that even the individuals them selves, in proposing the remedy, admitted that the cure at best could only be partial. It is, indeed, lament able to see the progress of legislation so impeded by this endless desire to make speeches; but let us not despair ; Ise cling to the hope that there is no esil without a remedy, and are impressed with the conviction that if our Legislators cannot submit voluntarily to the painful operation of curtailment, the public voice will in time compel them to submit, and the evil will cure itself. The remedy, however, appears to us very easy. The French, with all their propensity to talk, manage these things better than the taciturn English ; and why may we not take a lesson from an old enemy ? But it is not necessary even to go so far as France. We have an example worthy of imitation in a House which seldom deserves praise, bu t which in this respect far surpasses the House of Com mons. In the House of Lords there is none of that scrambling for the precedence in putting down notices of motions, and comparatively little desire to make long speeches, or many speeches. There seems a tacit understanding that the mover of a Bill, and the Peer best qualified to oppose it, shall alone be heard at full length, and that the other Members who do speak shall confine themselves to suggestions or ob servations which may occupy but little time. There is indeed rarely an exception to this rule, and the consequence is that Bills pass the House of Lords in half the time they pass the Commons. It is, in fact, the voluntary adoption of a rule laid down in Courts of Law, that only a certain number of Counsel shall be heard on each side ; and so just and wise is the principle, that, after long experience, it is now universally ap proved of. If the influential Members in the Com mons' House of Parliament were to come to a similar understanding, probably the time of the House would not be wasted in futile declamation ; but if Ow vain talkers still remain blind to their own honour, and to the interests of their constituents, then let them be kept down by positive enactment. A brief, but animated, discussion took place last I night in the House of Lords on the subject of the Imptisonment for Debt Bill, when Lord BROUGHAM triumphantly vindicated himself from the charge indi rectly brought against him that he was the " innocent cause of its delay." It gives us sincere pleasure to find his Lordship again exerting his various powers in the Senate, with all the fire and energy of his best days. Last night, as on the previous evening, not a trace of his recent serious indisposition was visible ; and it is evident the Tory organs are painfully aware of this, by the virulent spirit in which they renew their attacks on him. He has again become a bugbear to the faction ; and no wonder, for the observations he has made in the House of Lords within the week, though few and. brief, arc characterised by that' firmness, end decision, and determinatlon of purpose, which none have more reason to regard with apprehension than the Tories. Lord B ROUG 11 A 51, WC pred:C, Will 46 flutter the Volscians" sadly this Session. He sees that it is necessary to umnask their maeceuvres, lower their present tone of exultation, and make a bold stand against their insidious encroachment:4 ; and he will set about his task in a right earnest sp:rit. To him the people will look, as to one of their most unwearied and unflinching friends, while the Tories will be sure to regard him as their bitterest and most powerful enemy. The position he is now taking, is just the one that best becomes him. He sees that Reform is in dan ger,' if not from the treachery, at least from the lukewarmness, of some of those who should give it a wholesome impetus, instead of throwing petty obstacles in its way ; and he feels, therefore, that it is now more than ever necessary that he should stand prominently forward in defence of that great question. Heaven knows, we need a statesman of Lord BROUGHA M'S influence and energy to watch over us at the present crisis ! prospects of Reform are at best but cloudy ; the remedial measures which we had so confidently reckoned upon, bid fair, some of them, to be adjourned to the Greek Kalends ; and even the "finality of tire Reform Bill" has been the subject of discussion among the Ministerial circles. A menth ago, who would have believed this possible ! However, it is idle to despond ; no good was ever yet gained by indulging in inert reg rets ; so, the sooner we take heart and exert ourselves, the better. We have a faithful ,guide and leader in Lord BitouGesAm, who having been our advocate, through good report and evil report, for thirty long years and upwards, is well acquainted with our wants and wishes, and will take special care to see that they meet with suitable attention from the Legislature. The Hon. Member for Monmouth, Mr. BLEWITT, has given notice that he will move the annexed string of Resolutions in the House of Commons on Wed- nesqay ncxt : " .I. That it is a gross breach of the rights and privileges that Greece shoall forget the bonds which unite the Allied Powers. " Since you pisrsist, Sir, in constituting yourself sole jufige of the validity of an English passport, and in cxercising the right of expelling from the country, even without communicating wish the En , rlish mission, any itlivido.rd who happens to be the beartr of a passport not striczly conformable to your own ideas, I believe it my duty to protest against a state of thieirs so directly in opposition to the usages of friendly natio:,s, and to inform yon that I shall submit the case to the consideration of her - Alajesty'r, Government." Thus rests the que.:tion at present. We are not aware what course Ministers will adopt respecting it ; but our conviction is that. England is entitled to de mand the inst Ant dismissal of M. ItuullAuT from the COIIIIHIS of the King of GREECE. P..v the arrival at Liverpool of the pael;et-ship j) ii. on Thursday, we have received New York Papers to the Bth,. and Montreal Papers to the 4th instant, both inclusive. Interesting extracts from them will be found in another part of The Sun. By the arrival at Fahnouth on Thursday of the City of Londonderry steamer from the Tagus, we have recoivcd Lisbon Papers of the 19th inst. inclu sive. The QUEEN had succeeded in re-modelling the Cabinet. Viscount DE SA DA BANDEIRA is ap pointed President of the Council and Minister for Foreign Affairs ; the Baron de Bommi, who knows no more of naval affairs than he does of the Ricardo system of political economy, is Minister of Marine, and, ad interim, of War ; SANCHES is Minister of the Interior; CAMPOS of Grace and Justice ; and OLI VEIRA of Finance—a department just now unfortu nately little better than a sinecure, as regards the hand ling of cash in Portugal. The Viscount DAS AN TAS retains the command of the army ; and on the 17th set out for the Northern Provinces, where the Miguelites have recently been severely drubbed by the National Guards. The new Minister for Foreign Affairs is reported to have made friendly overtures to the British Ambassador, and to have signified, in the most unequivocal terms, that nothing shall be wanted on his part to maintain the most amicable relations with this country. The Cortes are on the eve of completing their labours, after which there must be a dissolution, in order that the new Constitution may come into full operation. The intentions of the new Cabinet are admitted to be holiest by all parties. The Paris Journals of Thursday have been received, together with the advices from Madrid of the 15th instant. Their contents are of no political import ance. The following are extracts : It is affirmed (says the 411essager) that a courier arrived yesterday from Vienna, with very important despatches from Count St. Aulaire. Our Ambassador is said to announce that a negociation is going on between the two Courts of Austria and Russia on the subject of the affairs of Servia. The Cabinet of St. Petersburgh is stated to have taken the first step by requiring that Prince Miksch should be obliged to revoke the liberal measures which he has introduced into the Government of the Principality. It is supposed that Austria is well inclined to second the views of Russia; and the nego tiation turns only on the means of carrying them into execu tion, and the Power to which this execution shall be con fided. Since the departure of Lord Granville, Mr. Aston has had several conferences with the President of the Council. It is to be presumed that conferences have taken place on the affairs of Spain and the Levant. What confirms the latter conjecture is the presence of the French and English fleets at the same time in the same seas as the squadron of the Capitan Baron de Barante has given notice of his arrival at Paris for the 20th December at the latest. What delays his de parture is the necessity of waiting for the return of the Em peror to St. Petersburg, in order to take leave of his Imperial Majesty, for the Ambassador seems resolved not to return to Russia, where his position is not tenable. . . . The Garde National of Marseilles of the 17th November has the following paragraph :—" A letter from Alexandria announces that the Government of Bombay has given orders for three steam-boats to take mails to Sucz. The first was to depart on the 18th August, the second on the 24th September, and the third on the 24th October." This news will be of importance to those persons who have connections in India. A letter from Totilon of the 18th says,—" A pretty large quantity of gunpowder has just been shipped for Abd-el- K , :der, which indicates -that he fears some attack from his enemies, who are now pretty numerous in the province of Oran. The latest letters from that place would seem to show that some event was generally expected."—Le Commerce. FRENCH FUNDS -PAIII9. Nov. 23. Five per Cents., 1 , 17 f. 90e. 95c. Sec. 85c.

StrARMAN CR AWFORD•—On Monday we will find room for the reply of the ex-Member for Dundalk to Mr. O'Connell's farewell letter. As the Rev. J. Richardson was delivering the even ing lecture in the church of St. Michael-le-Belfrey, he was in terrupted in his discourse, by some one " brawling in the church," " What nonsense you arc talking ? it's a lie." This unjustifiable conduct caused some confusion, and the offender was put out. We have been informed that the preacher was descanting on his favorite theme when he was thus irreverently a ccosted.— York Courant. There was a pretty heavy fall of snow this morning on the hills. The south mail was about an hour and a half behind its time.—lnverness Courier of Wednesday. I)ItEA DF UT, Acct E N T.—A Coroner's inquest was held on Thursday, on the body of William Smith and his nephew, Thomas Smith, who had been killed the day before by a fail of stone from the roof of the Bruomside pit, belonging to the Marquis of Londonderry. The verdict of the Jury was " Accidental Death." It appeared that about an hour before the accident happened, the roof had been inspected by the deputy, and was then perfectly safe. A short time after the deputy had left that part of the pit, the father of Thomas Smith was there, and noticing the roof after further workings, advised his son to have the stone propped ; but instead of do. ing so, he and \Vm. Smith continued their working. The neglect of attention to the advice given was the cause of the death to both.—York Courant. We regret to hear that some serious di.sturhances occurred a t' Bradford, Yorkshire, on Monday, in consequence of the endeavour so enforce the provisions of the New Poor Law. A correspondent informs us that the military were called in, and that a number of persons were wounded—the windows of the Town-hall were all broken, and the greatest excitement prevailed. We wait with anxiety for further par ticulars. Mn. A. IVPDoNALD.—For several days past the authorities have been unremitting in their exertions to unravel the mysterious circumstances connected with the sudden dis appearance of Mr. M'Donald on last Fast Day, and we are given to understand that their inquiries are in a fair way of being crowned with success.
