tion could be received from the Quakers. He would ask, had not petitions of the same nature been already reu.ived The Duke of SUSSEX said he would withariuv the pe tition for the present, but would reserve the right t 3 present it again. Lord BERESFORD thought that if the words " Peers of Parliament" were used, it would. obviate the obieetion, and he was sure the House was anxious to receive the peti- tions of the body referred to. Lord BROUGHAM said that he would take the sense of the House on it, if the petition were opposed, and the words " Peers of Parliament" were used. Messengers from the Commons then desired a Con ference with their Lordships on the subject of their Lord ships' amendments to the Ecclesiastical Suspensio n I Conference was then appointed to be held presently iu Committee-rooi:n Mr. BuoTunner , ?N and other Members o f the Commons brought up the Glasgo..7 . and Paisley Bill, the Clerks of the Peace Bill, the Stockport ...rwprovement The foltwine, Noble Lord were then appointed, on the motion of Lord MELnounNE, Managers of a Conference with the COIIIIIIOEI3 on the subject cif the Ecclesiastical Sus pension Bill: the Lord President, Lord Shaftesbury, Lord Mulgrave, the Bii;hop of Killaloe, Earl of Fingal, Lord Poltimore, and Lord 11:iteman. Oa the return of thc Confereziee, The LORD PitESIDENT siated that thir Lord sbips' M a nagers had met those of the Conference, icas con Iticted by Lord J. Russell, and others, who stated ,;bat the Commons had returned the Bill, and had disagreed to clause A of the amendments of their Lordships, and their reasons for so doing. Lord MELBOURNE then moved that their Lor d ships do agree to the Commons' amendments. _ • . Lord CANTERBURY did not consider the clause to be an unbecoming interference with the House of Commons ; but if it were considered so, he would not object to the mo tion of the Noble Lord. The motion was then agreed to. EDUCATION IN IRELAND. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE presented the Re port of the Committee on Education in Ireland. The Com mittee had desired him to state, that from the number of witnesses which had to be examined, the Committee consi dered that it would be better to la 3 the evidence before the House without any comment. The Marquis of WESTMEATH complained that if any abuses in the system were found to exist the redress of them had not been recommended. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that if any such abuses had been discovered by the Committee as would have demanded immediate redress, the Committee would have of course made a special report on the subject—no such abuses however bad been elicited in the course of the inquiry.—(Hear, and cheers.) BILLS OF EXCHANGE BILL. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE, in moving the third reading of this Bill, observed on the extent of commercial disturbance which had existed during the last six months. The present Bill would tend to admininister relief under such circumstances, and it was desirable that it should not be a temporary but a permanent measure ; as if it were tern porary it would only lead to other temporary measures— it was intended to apply to Id months' bills. After a few words from Lord BEXLEY, Tee Duke of WELLINGTON said that he had an op portunity of speaking with some persons in the city on the Bill, and there was a general objection to it, as it Went to annihilate the law of usury, in respect to these bills. A measure also like the present, should not be in troduced at such a period of the session. When originally introduced in the House of Commons, the Bill referred to bills of six months: After which, on the motion of an Honourable Gentleman, it was altered to its pre sent shape.—(Hear, hear.) lie would say in addition, to this that the measure involved a breach of the bargain made with the Bank. He considered that it should be limited in time, and that it should refer to bills of six months. The Noble Duke then moved amendments to the effect that the operation of the Bill should be limited to the Ist of January, 1539, and should refer to bills of six months. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE had no objection to the amendment, as he was sure, when the operation of the Bill had been experienced, it would be found to be beneficial, and the , necessity for its continuance would be made evident.—( Hear.) The measure would, he was sure, have the effect of enabling commercial houses to rescue themselves from difficnities in times of pressure. Lord BROUGHAM said that the effect of the limita tion of time would be to increeee the expense to the bor rower, who was the needy person. The Duke of WELLINGTON said, that he would withdraw his amendment rather than throw any impedi ment in the way. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. CRIMINAL LAW. On the motion of Lord DENNIA.N, the several Crimi nal Law Bills were read a third time, and passed. Lord BROUGHAM begged, before these Bills left the House, once more to remind their Lordships that, although, considering . the advanced period of the Session, and the convenience of allowing even partial measures to be adopted, rather than wait until the whole subject could be legislatively considered, he had concurred in them, it was• only because as far as they went they restricted the amount of criminal punishment. He had, on a former occasion, expressed his anxiety for the abolition of capital punish ment for all crimes except murder, and, even in cases of murder, he entertained considerable doubts whether capital punishment ought to be inflicted. He was glad to find that his Noble and Learned Friend opposite had come to the same conclusion ; and he hoped that ere long this salu tary change would be meele in the Criminal Law. One word as to the alterations which had taken place in the details of these Bills. There could be no doubt that the hurry with which the Biils had passed through the House was greatly to he Li:men:ed. There could be no doubt that many oversights had occurred in those Bills in con sequence. He hoped, however, that the pains which had been taken with the Bills by some of their Lordships had ren dered those oversights as fetv in number as could fairly be expected. No blame whatever could attach to any one for the inconsistencies which had been pointed out in these Me by his Noble and Learned Friend. They originated from its having been thought expedient (on which, howe ver, he would give no opinion) not to wait until the whole series of measures had been completed, but to pass a portion of them at once. Under such circumstances inconsistencies were unavoidable, and reflected no blame on those by whom the measures :tad been framed. Lord LYND.HURST observed that when lie made the observation about the inconsistencies in the Bills, he was not aware of the correspondence which had taken place between the Commissioners and the Noble Lerd the Se cretary of State for the Home Department, in which those inconsistencies had beet, pointed out by the Coinmissioners. Lord BROUGHAM observed that, in adverting to the inconsistency of subjecting smaller offences to a greater pu nishment than larger offences, his Noble and Learned Friend had omitted to state that the minor offences so punished must be accompanied by violence. Lord DEN MAN felt great gratification at the manner in which these Bills had been received and treated by their Lordships. The difficulties with respect to them would have been less if his Noble and Learned Friend opposite had not been desirous to extend the operation of sonic of the Bills further than was originally intended. With respect to the inconsistencies which had been adverted to, there could be no comparison between tl.ose inconveniences and the shocking incongruity in time existing practice of the law, casting upon .it the odium of sentencing twenty times more persons to capital punishment than it was intended to visit with that infliction. Many improvements had been intro duced into the Bills ; and he felt himself much indebted to both his Noble and Learned Friends for the pains which they had taken on the subject. He said this, lest it should be supposed out of doors that these measures were less valuable than they really were. Lord LYNDIIURST considered them to be very valuable measures. Almost all the anomalies which he had originally pointed out had been removed. • The LORD CHANCELLOR observed that Govern most had only the choice of two evils—either to postpone the Ineasures altogether, or to admit the inconsistencies alluded to. Lord LYNDIIUitsT repeated that all the inconsisten cies_ which he 'had poi n t e d out h a d b een o bviated. After a few more observations from the LORD CHAN CELLOR and Lord LYNOSICEST the conversation dreppedr„.• BETTER OBSERVANCE OF Tin: SABBATH. The Earl of RODEN presented numerous petitions from various parts of the kingdom, praying for the adoption dome legislative measure to enforce the better observance of the Sabbath. STATE OF IRELAND. ar of The Ear: of RODEN, adl calm -, thereturns eter h constabul try of Dublin, of the number and character the outrages whici: had been committed in Ireland' in the year ending in June , 1 5 36, which had been laid o n t heir Lordships' table by the Noble E a rl at the head of the vernm ent of that country , entered into an examination of . the details, to s how that th q . number of outrages had in erecsed, or at least that no improvement had taken place in that iTspeet within the last year. Minor outrages might have dinc;nis;:ed; b ut more important outrages, such as horn tnicide and the robbery of arms, had greatly increased. He requested the goble Earl would favour their Lordships would some explanadot7 en that point. The Earl of mULGUA.YE said be had lain the returns adverted to by the Noble Earl on their Lordships table, be cause he had quoted part of them from memory on the pre ceding day. He entirely denied the in ferences which had been drawn from them by the Noble Earl ; and maintained that they proved that outrages in Ireland had greatly dimi nished in the last year. The Noblp Earl had stated that .------------------ . the smaller offences had diminished, but that the larger ones had greatly increased, and had quoted the number of murders as a proof of that assertion. Now, the fact. was that all homicides were so termed ; but when they came to he investigated it turned out that most of them were committed under circumstances of iinmediate provocation, and were therefore only manslaughter. A great portion of the crimes committed in Ireland arose from di-etrese ; and he had the satisfaction to ass ureatly theidi r Lordships that the d istress in that country was gre • minished. There never also had been a prospect of a bet ter harvest, and that would afford additional enconrage , ment to labour. He held a diminution of moral offences to be the best test of the increasing tranquillity of any country ; and he would confidently appeal to the approach ing assizes in Ireland for proofs of his 'assertion, that the re turns which had been adverted to exhihited a vast diminu tion of crime. There was an utter abienee of those in surrectionary offences witich were so common a few years go. The people began to feel that e q ual p rotection, and that just participation in the benefits of the British Consti tution, which it had been the object of the Bill that had been brought in by a Noble Duke, whom he did not then see in his place, to procure them. Temporary circum stances (he did not wish to throw blame on any one) might for a time have retarded that consummation ; but he was convinced that on the foundation of that Bill an improve ment was taking place in the character of the people of Ireieed, and in their condition, from which he honestly be , lieved filet most advantageous results would eventually menifest therneelves—(Hear, hear.) 'flee Mar Vis of wF,sTmEAT II was unable to concur !ri the views an, l opinions of the 'eagle Earl. He con -1 with his Noble Friend near hiM, t.:;et the returns exhibits •'a increase if crime—at least crimes or magjtude. The Earl ,:s.O GLENIIALL was proceeding to addrete the House, when Lord HOL L A Nil) interrupted the Noble Lord, and ouse, it was a said, there being no quCe.!;en before L'.'" -louse, most irregular conversatlon, which could only :cad to a waste of time. -It was alloveed as a matter of courtesy to one Member or that House to put a question to any other Noble Lord who might be in he.: place ; but to have a dis sertation on all the different item; b.r returns laid on the table. was wholly contrary to the rules e lf their proceedings, and such irregularity tended to lower the ,c'haracter and dig nity of that House.—(Hear, hear.) The Earl of GLENGALL had no wish to trespass on their Lordships' attention. Lord BROUGHAM presented petitions from Annan, in Scptl a nd, for an alteration in the marriage laws ; from the police of Paisley, for municipal corporation reform ; also two petitions for the abolition of Church-rates ; and one from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals; and other persons desirous of attaining the same object, which, the Noble Lord said, was very numerously and most respectably signed. The Noble Lord also moved for re turns of the amount of saving which had taken place in the Masters' and Registrars' Offices since the year 1831. Viscount DUNCAN NON presented a variety of peti tions in favour of the Church-rates Bill, and on other sub jects, from Reading, Hammersmith, several London parishes, and other places. The Central Criminal Court Bill was read a third time, and passed. Their Lordships then adjourned. FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE. WAR-OFFICE, JULY 14. 3d Regiment of Light Dragoons—G.

The Tory Journals give us a strange idea of the state of the Tory mind. " What would Lord Dur ham be at ?" exclaims the Times ; and we, with more justice, ask, " What would the Times be at ?" On Thursday our Contemporary showed such a disposi tion to be delighted with his Lordship's letter, that the Standard of the same day, resolving not to be out done in the way of compliment, at once inscribed him a member of the Conservative Cabinet which we arc to have " before the close of the year." One phrase was said by the Times to be intended " as a severe sarcaim launched at the heads of the Whig Cabinet." A sneer was " intended for the edification of Messrs. Hume, Roebuck, Grote, and Co." On the faith of these passages it. thought it might " almost claim Lord Durl ;2_in as one of the Conservatives." " But," added p‘ -:fary, " there are, indeed, other passages our Cotem quite .intelligible. But perhaps it is Coe temp.._ the l e tter not only reasonable to infer from tnus,3 sentences which are perfectly plain the scope and object of others which are involved in a more diplomatic diction. Assuming this mode of interpretation to be correct, the,whole address becomes a model of Conservative wis • dorm" Next day, however, a new light seems to have broken in upon the Times. Lord Dur ham i s now " a personage whom circumstances have at times made a noisy one, but whose period of eclat seems to be pretty well worn out." On Thursday his Lordship's address " becomes tl model of Conservative wisdom;" on Friday the question of what he would be at " may be answered without diffi culty. Lord Durham's object is the same as Lord John Russell's, the tone of whose address ha has closely mimicked. Both these worthy persons renounce, in words at least, extreme Radicalism ; they both make professions of loyalty, &c.; the aim of both is to impress the nation with the belief that the Queen cordially supports the policy of the Ministers, and that in opposing the Government, the Conservatives are opposing the Queen." The " severe sarcasm launched at the heads of the Whig Cabinet" grows in a single night into a close mimickry of Lord J. Russell address. Not even for one day can the Times keep up even an appearance of consistency. Thissort of everlasting chop ping and changing must greatly perplex the remaining readers of the Times who have sense enough to connect sentences together. The readers of that journal who swear by it had need to lose no time in giving utterance to its oracles. The traveller who leaves Birmingham in possession of one set of opinions derived from the Times may count with cer tainty on obtaining another before he reaches London. Will this example tempt the Standard to strike Lord Durham out of the Tory Cabinet that is to be, and to back out of its prediction, " derived from his personal character, from his public addresses just before his de parture from St. Petersburgh, and from the general report of his excellent and manly character at the court of the Czar ?" With every wish to do justice to the Standard's powers of assurance, we must own we think it will be distanced by the Times. Alas for the statesmen who are so weak as to believe that the Times can either give or take away reputation I Who has not been both praised and reviled by that most vacillating of all unprincipled journals? On the 11th December, 1833, the Times was pleased to speak of Lord Durham in these terms : " The Tory party seem well aware of the impression produced upon public opinion by the meetings in the north, held as a tribute of esteem and honour to Lord Durham, but especially by the manner in which that nobleinan im proved the two occasions thus afforded him of explaining his sentiments on the vast question of Reform, and on those high principles of constitutional liberty, by the assiduous and judicious enforcement of which alono can any mea sure bearing the name of a Reform Bill be made available to results of much practical benefit to the nation. No circumstance appears to have stung the a nti-constitutional factions on both sides more severely than the declaration of Lord Durham that the principle of Reform must be laboriously followed out in its details, until the great end of solid good g overnment shall have been securely accom plished. The Tories have been rendered desperate., because they see that not an inch of ground whereon to rally, and not an hour of breathing-time, will be left to them. The Destructives are dismayed at the full redress of constitu tional grievances which has been recognised as inevitable by one so lately an important member of the Cabinet, and still the near connection of its Chief—a redress of griev ances which must extinguish all pretence for the assaults of political mountebanks on the body of our institutions, and must thus cut away the whole influence of incendiary de magogues over the simple-minded, who might otherwise be deceived by the plausibility of their schemes, and over the unprincipled, who might join in them from the possible chance of their succeeding. We observe that our contem poraries are perplexing their readers with statement and counter-statement upon the question whether any recent effort has or has not been made to restore Lord Durham to the Cabinet, and what has been or is likely to be its re sult. We cannot, of course, know what has passel within the walls of the secret Council-chamber, nor will the public be inclined to measure the credit due to the assertions of other journals by the loudness or pertinacity of those who risk them ; but, whether Lord Durham comes into the Cabinet again or not, one observation will meet with many approvers—viz., that the Noble Earl ought to be there. Lord Durham's health may not be vigorous, nor have we any materials for judging as to his Lordship's disposition upon the subject of returning to office ; but sure we are, that if energy, firmness, the love of liberty, political con sistency, and sagacity, possess claims to poarer in a free state or to Royal confidence, Lord Durham is one of the men in England who ought most speelily to be invested with the insignia of both." Who knows how soon the Times - may again hold the same language in speaking of this statesman I It is time to be silent respecting the American press. There is nothing in any American newspaper to be compared in turpitude with the limes. The Tories tolerate this because they have no fixed principles. With them it is tout pour la tripe. They would even fain believe that the people of England are generally as indifferent to, right and wrong as the Journal which had the assurance to boast that it dictate:l the political opinions of three-fourths of them. As to Lord Dur ham, the nation has not his character to seek from the Times and the Standard. A year or two ago his Lordship was the god" of the idolatry of one of these Journals, and the peculiar abhorrence a the other. Their praise or blame cannot b.! indifferent to his Lordship, because a good man must always feel un easy under praise from such a quarter. But Lord Durham has been before the public now fur nearly a quarter of a century, and during all that time his bit terest enemy cannot reproaCh him with one act of political inconsistency or vacillation. With strong sense and first-rate talents, he has benefited largely by his experience ; and we are sure that, whether in a public or private capacity, he will never abet a policy which lie is not thoroughly persualed will redound to the honour and advantage of England.—Mo? n. Chronicle. The Conservatives are determined, it seems, to exert every nerve to prevent the return of Mr. Hume for Middlesex. A triumph in that quarter would com pensate for a score of defeats. It is impossible for his constituents to appreciate too highly the public ser vices of Mr. Flume. He has assisted, perhaps more than any other man, to raise that spirit of reform which within these few years has (mined so extensive an ascendancy. He has done this unswayed by the love of place, and with no other motive than an honest regard for the true interests of the people. He was a Ileformer when reform was stigmatised as synonymous with r ei)o rrtealvido olii:ioond report;, . He has struggled on through , He w4s the terror of the Treasury in the Tory flays of LQI4 Li verpp o, Attacked 17 ridi, vent n d all werethe e m m o p d l modes employed against of annoyance whiPh they eo l4 ld im, cute, blackened by calumny, assailed by abuse, he went on steadily, turning neither to the right nor to the left, until the Corruptionists, to their great discomfiture, found that slander and sarcasm had no more effect upon him than so many pellets from a pop-gun upon the hide of a rhinoceros, and they were fain, at last, to leave him to himself. He has gone on labouring to obtain and to deserve the confidence of the public. He has done this with a perseverance which nothing but great phy sical strength could have boi ne him through, and with no hope or prospect of reward but the honest appro bation of his constituents and of his country. If the Conservatives were to succeed in throwing him out, it would actually be a stain on the national character. Public gratitude would be an empty name. There would he no longer any stimulus to the exertions of public Men. It is an absolute libel, on the voters of Middlesex for the Conservatives to imagine that they would not only betray the cause of Reform, but would repay the labours of a life of public service with ingra titude and desertion. When the days of election come they will point to the poll-list as an answer to the calumny. It is to the corrupt and vicious mis government of the Tecies that we owe the present enormous weight of our public debt. It is to the prin ciples upon which they ruled the country that all our grievances, pecuniary and political, owe their origin. The people are, happily, rescued from their misrule, and they will take good care how they bring themselves again under the yoke ; and yet so infatuated are the Tory party as to presume them selves strong enough to effect their return to power They will speedily be convinced .of the insanity of such an expectation ; for what man in his sound senses will assist in restoring the reign of oppression and abuse ? What Englishman who knows the value of civil freedom will give his vote in favour of a fac tion leagued against Reform, and opposing every mea sure that would forward it ? With what desperate violence did they resist the reform in the constituency of the. House of Commons. They foresaw how greatly it would strengthen the influence of the people, and they resisted it to the last. When it was torn from their grasp, then, indeed, they approved the change and made a merit of their acquiescence. In what a bitter spi rit of resistance did they oppose the Corporation Reform Bill ! That integrity and independence should be in troduced into these municipal bodies, that they should hold the important trusts of office for the benefit of their fellow-citizens, instead of making them— as from time immemorial they had made them—subser vient to electioneering influence and Tory intrigue, this was an innovation not to be endured. They em - ployed all their energy and all their artifice to defeat it. They declaimed . against it as utterly destructive of all social order. It was loosening all those ties of sub ordination which bound them to their proper chieftains, the Tory aristocracy, and they never ceased to quote language of that renowned authority, Mr. Burke, when he had become Conservative, " When you.separate the common sort of men from their proper chieftains, I no longer know that venerable ebject called the people in such a disbanded race of deserters and vagabonds." So long as we are contented to put our trust in Tory rulers, so long as we look up to them as the only fit depositories of power, and in a becoming spirit of humility,- obey them as our proper chieftains, so long, and no longer, are we to be reverenced 1 It is only in this state of submission that we are to be recog nized as having that constitutional and legitimate . shape which entitles us to be called the people. But the instant our eyes are open to the systematic corrup tion`anti abuses of Tory Government, the instant we resolve to remove that corruption, and to reform those abuses, from that moment we are accounted as no bet ter than " deserters and vagabonds," and according to Mr. Burke, their great law authority, " may lawfully befought with and brought under, whenever an advan tage offers." Unluckily they cannot avail themselves of this legal privilege. They have tried their utmost strength, and have found the people too much for them. They now decline the trial by battle : they have had enough of it. They look forward to the hustings as their Court of Appeal. We shall see on what evi dence they ground their claims on the popular suf frage, and on what evidence it is meant to be sup ported. We shall see, more especially, on what plea they can have the impudence to solicit the electors of Middlesex to unseat Mr. Hume, and take a Tory to their bosom. Such a canvass would form an instruc tive page in the history of elections.—Morn. Citron. The Reform Association of Cleveland•rory has just sent forth a publication on the subject of the election, the substance and spirit of which is of the deepest im portance at the present crisis, and equally seasonable as important at the period of its publication. It is an abridgement of the evidence given before the Select Committee relative to bribery at elections. It is pub lished in a condensed and cheap form, in order to im part to it as wide a diffusion as possible. It, indeed, would be well if all the electors of the country, now upon the point of exercising the most important func tions which devolve on men in a social state, could be rendered familiar with the startling facts which it brings together, and thereby be enabled to defeat a giant evil which is in daily action and growth—which has frustrated to a very great degree the political benefits contemplated by the Reform Bill,—and which, at the time when we write, threatens the most serious dangers to the liberties of the country. "Forewarned isfore armed." The digest of the evidence to which we refer, exhibits corruption in all its audacious and in all its insidious forms. 'While it demonstrates its ex tensive character, and analyzes its mode of operation, it points out to the people the only mode which they possess of counteracting it. Supplied with a know ledge of the bane and of the antidote at the same time, it will be the people's own fault if they allow the common enemies of popular improvement to deprive them of the political advantages now within then grasp, and to induce them to "sell their birthright.for a mess of pottage." The abridged evidence with draws the curtain from as foul a scene of political cor ruption as ever was ,exhibited to the startled and indignant eye of honest patriotism. An indictment is brought and proved, of bribery, intimidation, and un due influence, redneed to system, and employed in a specific list of counties and boroughs, the names of which are given, and which are arranged in alphabeti cal order. The abridged evidence also contains sug gestions for remedial measures. The chief of these remedial measures is the ballot. To our view this is not only the most effectual, but the only really effec tual measure which can be resorted to for entirely eradicating and finally suppressing the mischief. The argument in favour of it—without drawing on Tocqueville, whose conclusive evidence in its favour is given in the digest before us—lies in the smallest compass. It may be, indeed, considered as a self-evident axiom. The - mere enunciation of it is sufficient to convince unperverted common sense. The intimi dation, bribery, and undue influence exposed in the stigmatizing record of public disgrace now before us, would be extinguished at once by the ballot. Why ? There certainly requires no verbose argumentation nor long-winded declamation to convince Wain reasoners that this must be the result—as certainly as effect fol lows cause. Bribery would be useless, and therefore it would not be used. No one (not even a❑ idiot) would purchase what is not purchasable ; and such is the real character of a vote protected from the know ledge of the corruptor by the ballot. But the'ballot not being as yet law—(although it must one day be so, or the English nation will stultify itself)—the next best thing is to look the political mischief of cor ruption manfully in the face—to pour the light upon its detestable features and proportions—to grapple with it and overthrow it. To know our enemy is half the battle. To this knowledge the useful work before us fully introduces the people. The whole play of the machinery of which their Tory adversaries will shortly avail themselves to reseat themselves in power, to obstruct the march of popular measures, anti to keep their heels fixed on the necks of the people, is here exposed. If the great body of the electors do not re sist the open villany or insidious treachery of the ma chinery thus set at work for their eventual degrada tion—for the destruction of all that is dear to civilized men—and for the deterioration of all their best hopes and - prospects—then they richly deserve to be made t h e rphbed and branded helots of Tory predominance f o r ever. hotiltl they §qccllaib pgw to the arts of t h e ir adversaries ' 001 rotist ealeulitt; 90 a log reign of political abuse. Once fairly in the saddle, the people will not easily be enabled to unseat them. The Tories know this ; they know the vital stake for which they are now playing ; and knowing this, it is our firm persuasion that they will be more profuse in the outlay of the funds of cc:erup tion in the next election than they ever were at any period of their pernicious history. Judging from past experience, indeed, the Tories would be right,—look ing at the matter in an arithmetical point of view,—in spending their annul income in order to secure their return to power. The patronage and the joss of a long reign (and such our present youthful Sovereign promises), would, according to their past system, ' amply repay tire outlay. But whatever they expend will he merely as a sprat to catch a whale. Let the people look to this, and prepare themselves to defeat the profligate calculation. They can only do so by imbuing themselves body and soul with the conviction of the momentous character of the conflict which is now impending. They can only do so by estimating the eternal stake which they and their families, for genera tions to come, have in the issue. No bribe propor tiouiate to that can he offered to them. They must rigidly and immovably determine to sacrifice every pre sent interest, and every present gratification—to defy danger, and to scorn fear,—for the sake of the great cause of popular Reform. So determining and so acting, the cause of progressive liberty—their cause— is safe for a quarter of a century.—jiorn. Advertiser. Did we bear any personal grudge to Lord Durham, it would gratify, instead of paining, us, to learn the manner in which his Lordship and his somewhat " un toward" letter are spoken of where any mention is made of them throughout society. The main question which this superfluous appearance before the puhlic has oc casioned we have already and briefly stated—viz., " what would Lord Durham be at ?" Those who pretend to know his Lonhhip give him credit for ra ther a busy, meddling, arrogating spirit, an impatience of inaction, while there is bustle near him, and a de sire to do as well as dictate. But, without professing that we ourselves are satisfied with any one or all of the solutions given to the question, " What would he be at ?" it may amuse others, if it do not edify them, to detail some half-dozen of the most probable con structions put upon the Noble Lord's advertise. ment of his return from St. Petersburgh, under the form of an address to a specific body of electors :- 1. It is assumed that his Lordship has no objection by honied words to pay court to his young Sovereign, or by vouching the wisdom of her Roy a l Hi g h ness the Duchess of Kent, to strengthen his own repute for. penetration and sagacity. 2. His unctuous and diplo matic professions of zeal for Crown, Lords, Commons, and Church, are fitted, say the admirers of Lord Dur ham, to administer a soporific to any fears which might be raised in the mind of an inexperienced Sovereign, by a knowledge of the former connexions and declara tions of his Lordship, and indeed by certain simulta neous symptoms, which the Noble Lord did not find it suitable to his other purposes to efface from the pre sent letter. 3. The same expedient of a mysterious and solemn, though somewhat abstract attachment toChurch and State, is deemed by the admirers of Lord Du r h am a skilful trap for the " liberal Conservatives," who, like her Majesty, might otherwise be in some small de gree alarmed. 4. On the other hand, while such are presumed to be the intentions wherewith he describes what he would do for Crown, Lords, &c., the Noble Earl proceeds with equal solemnity and vagueness to tempt the Liberals by a shadowy programme of what he means to do for the destruction of Crown, Lords, &c., by encouraging the schemes of the Movement party, under the name of " Reformers." 5. There is likewise, as the admirers of Lord Durham insist, in this masterpiece of diplomatic mystification, all the contradictory sentiments and principles of which seem to body forth the actual condition of the country under Whiggeiy, and to bring each other to "a dead lock" ---there is, say they, a latent readiness to throw the ancient allies of his Lord ship—namely, the ballot-mongers, triennial-mongers, household-suffrage-mongers, &c., overboard, as being a faction equally intractable and unprofitable; and at the same time to promulgate to the political capitalists of the day, " Here stands Lord Durham, who bids highest ?" 6. The last and most recherche experiment in this fine letter, say the admirers of the Earl of Durham, is one upon gobemoucherie of the people of England, by availing himself and whomever he per suades to be his friends of the Queen's name, and to lean upon her universal popularity as a fulcrum for their own machinations. When a shake of 'Lord Bur leigh's head indicated so much to the mind of the spec tator, what is there that may not be inferred from a shake of his inkstand by one so vastly greater than Lord Burleigh ?—Times. The accounts from Hanover, since the event which has given to that crown a separate existence, have not, from the details which they gave of the ascent to the throne of the present possessor, been hitherto without interest ; but by the extracts which we make elsewhere from the papers received last night, it will be seen that they now assume a very considerable political import ance. His Majesty appears to have taken the first political step in his reign by publicly disclaiming and refusing assent to the existing C ons tit u ti on o f the-king dom of Hanover, which, it will be recollected, was not very long since presented to that kingdom by his late Majesty William IV. The King states that he cannot perceive " either in the form or substance" anything in that political organization to bind him or his suc cessors to its adoption; but, on the contrary, much in it of which he disapproves, " as in many points not cor responding with his wishes, which arc solely directed to the promotion of the good of his faithful subjects ;" " and not affording guarantees for the permanence of the prosperity of his faithful subjects ;' and that he will, thereforo, shortly, but not hastily or inconsider rately announce the modifications which he proposes in it. This Royal declaration appears to be marked by some peculiar characteristics.- It is entitled " let ters patent," and has not been promulgated by the usual channel of the Cabinet. It is countersigned by a private Secretary, not a Minister of Stat e , a nd avows upon the face of it that the King did not publish it in the usual way, because the Ministers " had sworn to the Constitution." The document states that his Ma jesty was considering whether he should not altogether abrogate the modern Constitution and return to that which preceded it, or restore the old electoral organi sation of the country. He recalls the recollection of the Hanoverians to the tranquillity and assurance which marked their former systems of Government, and concludes by expressing his entire confidence in their loyalty and patriotism that they will patiently await the developement of his benignant intentions in their regard. Till, however, further changes are announced, his Majesty requires that the State continue to be go verned by the existing laws. The new Constitution is to be communicated to the " States" (the legislative body) after it has been resolved by the King, and it will be their duty to cnregister, not discUss, the terms of it. Every possible publicity is to be given to these " letters patent," which are to be " posted up in all public places ;" and though we have as yet no evidence to as to the effect which the notice may have up on the public mind, it is not unreasonable. to supposet io thato t et has produced some sensation.

The rich stores of Flora, including the most modern exotics, caught the eye at every glance, w hilst the freshness and odour of the dowers produced n charm which cannot be expressed by words. Luxuriant groups of roses were most prominent. " sweet to see the idar:t stems, Yet dropping with Aurora's gems, And fresh inhale the spicy sighs That from the weeping buds arise."—Moore.
