The Tory Journals are highly delighted with, what they are pleased to call, their splendid electioneering successes. According to their accounts, never were such extraordinary triumphs as they have gained within the last few weeks. They have put the Reformers to the rout by entire platoons, and are now therefore quite convinced that the principle of progressive, en lightened Reform will not outlive the Session. They would be right in this conviction, were it possible that their party could re-assume the reins of power, for every one knows that Toryism is the direct an tagonist of anything like improvement ; but there is not the remotest prospect of any such un toward contingency occurring, for Ministers are in possession of a steady, working majority, which will be very considerably increased when the nu rnereus election scrutinies are brought to a close. The majority of the Tory returns have been gained by dint of such barefaced bribery, and such reckless inti midation, earried to an extent never before attempted, that there is scarcely one out of five in the Bo roughs that will be able to stand the test of a search ing scrutiny. None know this better than the Tories themselves; and therefore is it that they are now so busily endeavouring to keep up their courage, and beguile their uneasy reflections by getting up a stunning shout of triumph. But if— despite their . noisy bluster—they are filled with well-grounded alarms, how will it be with them when the question of Vote by Ballot comes to be discussed in Parliament, an] they see the extraordinary imp e t us th a t they have been th e means of giving to that question ? Do they flatter themselves that it will be got rid of as quietly next session, as it was the last ? If they do, they will he most egregiously mistaken ; for recent events have now convinced the country that it is absolutely indispensable to the well-doing of Reform ; and sure we are, that there will be no respite from agitation till it be carried. Without the Ballot we can never hope to subdue the anti-national preju dices of the House of Peers. It is indispensable to our present political condition, being the sole means we have left for remedying those corrupt habits by which the Tories have been endeavouring for years past to demoralize all the smaller colstituencies. The Scotch elections are over, or may be so considered., as the only one about which any doubt retnains is that of Lanarkshire. Here th e T at i es claim a majority of one vote in favour of Ivlr.Locx lIART, but the Sheriff had not made the return, and it is not improbable that his calculation may not tally with theirs to a unit. Granting, however, that it should, there will then remain on the whole of the Scotch elections a, gain of tWQ in favour of the Libe rals—the loss; : e being Haddingtonshire, Perthshire, and the Kihnnnock burghs; and the gains, Edinburghshire, Ilanffskre, Orkney and Shetland, Itoxburghshire, and the Inverness burghs. Scotland has thus, giving the Twits all they can with any show of reason or probability claim, 19 Tories, returned 34 Liberals and es. But this is taking the most unfavourable view a the qu est i on; f or Caithness, Peebleshire, Stir rngshire—and Lanarkshire (should the Sheriff sus tain the majority claimed by the Tories) will most un questionably be petitioned against, and to a cer tainty wrested from the anti-Reform faction. The proceedings in Caithness have been most disgrace ful to the fanatical party who support the rene gade SINTCLAIR in that county. On the estate of tht immaculate puritan alone from twenty to thirty fittitious votes have been created, and some of the underlinga in his interest have imitated the worthy ex ample of their superior in proportion to their ability ; 110 that when the balance of bond fide votes comes to be struck it will be found to be in favour of Mr. TRAIL', the able and spirited supporter of the prin ciples of Reform, and of the Liberal interest in the county. The letters which we have received from that quarter speak in the strongest terms of indigna tion of-the unprincipled conduct of some of the clergy in this election. Four out of nine of the Rev. Gen- t:emen supported Mr. TRA I LL, and this eir euin,tank.-..c so stung the fanatical five that tf.cy seemed to think they were bound to do the work of the whole. The pulpit rang with personal invective and brutal intolerance., and every voter was not merely canvassed, but ahso!utely perstir,:;.! in ta your of a candidate who had forfeited every claim to the countenance of honourable men by his vile epos tacv. One Rev. Gentleman rendered himself particularly conspicuous by the unscrupulous manner in which he bore down every tic of honour and moral rectitude in his eagerness to secure the return of his favourite— threatening the reluctant voter with the wrath of man in this world, and everlasting perdition in the next, un• less he broke the sacred pledge he had giNen to Mr. TaA t Lt. Yet these men think they are doing GOD good service by thus forting their fellow-men to break his laws I We beg the attention of our readers to a state ment in another part of The Sun, copied from the Morning Chronicle of this day, by which the writ:r makes out that there will be a majority of upwards of thirty in favour of Mini3ters, when Parliament opens. This more than bears out the view we took of the result of the elections yesterday. It is not a little amusing to observe the antics of the Tory jour nals about the election returns. Grandmamma, with a pair of new magnifiers clapt on her nose, declares this morning that the elections of England and Wales give the Tories a majority of 17 ; and the Times de termined to distance poor old Granny in the fibbing race, swears the majority is 28—not one less I I I King ERNEST AUGUSTUS of Hanover is prepar ing to mount the political repentance-stool in Ger many. He has given the first proof of his not being insensible to the odium attached to a bad character, by/attempting a denial of the weightier charges pre ferred against him. He never intended the arbitrary abrogation of the Constitution—not he. He never meant to deprive Hanover of a General Assembly of the States, nor dreamt of the " abrogation of all the laws promulgated since the existence of the Con stitution." Bless us, hew prodigiously generous on the part of his MAJESTY ! and what blockheads must the members of the Cabinets of Berlin, Vienna, Paris and London have been, when they inferred from the contents of his MAJESTY'S letters patent of the sth of July, any other than a right Royal determination to uphold the Constitution, which they stupidly assumed in such extreme peril. The States of Baden, too, with the Grand Duke at their head, fell into a similar error ; and even went the length of authorising an appeal to the Frankfort Diet. No wonder that habitually following in the wake of such official interpreters of the testaments of Kings, the public Press of Europe should fail to do justice to his Hanoverian MAJESTY'S beneficent in tentions. True, the Press was at the trouble of print ing the letters patent, and even of calling public at tention to them ; but neither the Press nor the public saw in them aught but a condemnation of the Consti tution. Finding, however, that the consequences of so much dulness were about to be visited upon him self—and no doubt inspired with the beneficent design of dispelling the mists of error in which his incompre hensible letters patent had be-clouded Western rope—his Majesty King ERNEST AUGUSTUS has caused the following official article to appear in the Royal Hanoverian Gazette of the sth inst., to which we direct the most public attention : HANOVER, AUG. s.—We are authorized to communi cate the following observations with respect to the Royal Letters Patent of the sth of July : " The opinions published by foreign journals respecting the Royal Letters Patent of the sth of July, which are at variance with each other, and almost universally betray a total ignorance of facts, have given occasion to the follow ing explanatory observations, which in this country may be deemed as unnecessary. We may pass over the vehement reproaches of an arbitrary abolition of the Constitution of 1833, as the Royal Letters Patent clearly express the con trary. But neither has a suspension of the Constitution with respect to the administration taken place. All goes on as usual. Under such circumstances, an actual suspension of the Constitution cannot be assumed without a manifest injustice, from the circumstance that the King has not issued on his accession the Letters Patent required by the Constitution, and which promises that it shall be observed. As his Majesty does not recognise the Constitution to be binding either in form or substance, and this very question, as well as the utility of this Constitution, is to be made a subject of in quiry, it would be deciding the question at once to require the issuing of these Letters Patent—a thing which will never be asked on any legal process of one of the two parties. It would be wholly groundless to affirm that what has been done is an arbitrary attack on the Constitution ; nothing has been done but what every body has a right to do— namely, to put forth his claims, and it is not till they are prosecuted in an illegal manner that the question will be put how far there has been a violation of law. This is neither the time nor the place to bring forward the defects both in form and substance of the Constitution ; there arc such, and even on its promulgation the first were blamed by competent judges, especially that article 56 of the concluding act of the Vienna Congress had been vio lated, which, out of ignorance of the facts, is now quoted by the public journals to prove the validity of the Consti tution ; on which point we will only observe, that the As sembly of the Estates founded in 1819, by which the Con stitution was discussed in 1832 aid 1833, did not give its assent to many points adopted in the Constitution ap proved by the King, and consequentl) the Constitution which was then recognised and in force was not altered in the manner prescribed in the 56th Act. For the pre sent we wish that no suppositions may be propagated, which we can affirm on good authority to be wholly ground less. Nothing authorizes a conjecture that the Kin in tends to deprive Me country o f a G enera l A ssem bl y of the States, or that oil the laws promulgated since the existence of the Constitution will be abrogated because they pro ceeded from the legislative power. The law and the ordi nance respecting the domains appeared, before the Consti tution, and consequently the Royal Letters Patent have no reference to them. The revenues of the domains were never at the unlimited disposal of the Sovereign ; those ancient German and Hanoverian relations cannot be taken away from the country, and it may doubtless be confidently aiermed that the King never had any such intention. But whether the country has been relieved by the financial ar rangements relative to the domains—whether the budget has been diminished in consequence, is known to the whole kingdom. Many persons, it is also said, are for a more . suitable participation of the States in public matters, and far contracting the length of its sittings. Unprejudiced persons, we are certain, will await with composure and confidence in their King. His Majesty's overtures to the States, and all the Royal servants mindful of their duty, will be anxious to refute erroneous notions and alarms. The statements of a journal that ;t note from a great Court led to the appointment of a commission to examine the Constitution, is wholly groundless. The intention of such an examinetion was entertained even before the publication of tliQ Royal Letters Patent." This defence of the KING involves several of the most monstrous falsehoods and contradictions. " It would he wholly groundless to affirm," impudently assumes the writer, " that what has been done is an arbitrary attack on the Constitution." Indeed ! What says section 13 of the Constitution upon this head ? We quote the words ;—" The KING will make known his accession by the publication of a patent, where upon, after the communication of the corresponding precepts to the whole kingdom, the doing of homage will take place. In the patent, which in the original, under the KING'S hand and seal, shall be deposited in the archives of the States, the KING shall promise, on his Royal word, the inviolable maintenance of the Constitution." This is the language of the Consti tution itself—the language of the assembled States and the late Sovereign of HA Nov ett, in conjunc tion with them. The Constitution is pronounced sacred and inviolable, and the duty of allegiance is made to d epen d upon t h e vo l untary prom i se of the SOVEREIGN to preserve it intact—subject, of course, to the will of the nation constitutionally ex- ' pressed. But how has ERNEST AUGUSTUS of Cum berland re.sponded to the positive instructions—to the necessary ordinances which this section of the Con stitutio❑ enumerates and pronounces impcintive ? has himself answered this question hi his lettets Patent, of the .sth of July. Speaking of his accession to the Throne of tlis anoosto.ts, iii oot j ltllitidtt 'kith the changes elected in the fund:intent:Al la4s cif the dotti by his Royal brother and predecessor, ERNEST AUGusTus goes on to observe—" B.iing resolved shortly to make known to our faithful people our views on this most linportrtnt enbjeCt, itie do not hesitate to declare that we cannot find in the ennstiution, which neither in form nor substance is bindim,r all us, a sufficient guarantee fat the permanent prosperty o f chic faithful subjects." '' It is our Royal to devote the most careful considers tithi to the question whether and how far a mod fication of the Constitution must fake place, or whether the Con stitution should be brought back totvhat it waskforethe promulgation cf the present Constitution."--" Our faith ful subjects formerly enjoyed happiness and satisfaction under the ancient hereditary Constitution of the King dom—a bond of attachment, and loyalty and confi dence in their SOVEREIGN, descending from gene ration to generation, promoted the happiness of the SOVEREIGN and the welfare of the subjects. We most earnestly wish to establish such a happy state of things." Will M. VON Sell ELE presume so far to insult the common sense of Europe as to repeat a second time that the above is not an " ar bitrary attack on the Constitution ?" Will lie dare to add in the face of evidence such as this, that " No thing has been done by the KING but what everybody has a right to do ?" But we have no interest, and just as little inclination to enter more minutely into the legal enormity of an of fence for which the perpetrator manifests some degree of compunction. In seeking to palliate and defend his conduct, the King of HANovER confesses himself. vanquished; and, moreover, indirectly promises to submit to the guidance of the States of his king dom. The Constitution may therefore be regarded as safe from the fangs of a tyrant, whose hatred of it is not so strong as his fear of the vengeance of liberal Europe. The Paris Papers of Thursday have been accom panied with advices from Madrid to the 3d instant. Both are unimportant. The French Papers repeat the statement which appeared yesterday of the cer tain dissolution of the Chambers. From the Spanish frontier no intelligence of any moment has been received. Madrid was tranquil on the 2d. It is reported that ESPARTERO has written to the Government, apprising Ministers that he will not enter upon the discharge of the functions of War Mi nister, before he has put an extinguisher upon the Carlist rebellion. The following extracts are from the French Papers : An entirely new situation is crested in Catalonia by the organization and assembling of a Supreme Junta at Barce lona, for the defence of the country. A telegraphic des patch from Narbonne made us acquainted with the import ant fact the day before yesterday. To-day a letter from Barcelona brings us details, which w e hasten t o l a y b e f ore our readers : BARCELONA, AuG. 4.—The progress of the Catalo nian faction, the increase of the different bands in the prin cipality, and the disregard of the Government at Madrid to the affairs of the country, have caused the civil and military authorities of the four provinces of Barcelona, Lerida, Tarragona, and Girona, to think of means for effec tually remedying all these evils. Representatives of these provinces met two days ago, General Pastor presiding, and unanimously decided to establish a Supreme Junta of Cata lonia, to complete the free battalion, to form new ones, and to nominate a Special Commission, which shall reorganize the whole of the national militia of Catalonia, and put it on a respectable footing. Gen. Pastor has issued a proclamation to announce the extraordinary measures which have just been adopted, for a general arming, and for providing means to beat the factionat every point. Catalonians (say the pro clamations), at the imperative voice of necessity, the laws themselves are silent, and in the hard alternative either of making extraordinay efforts, or of ruining our country, the choice cannot be doubtful. The energetic and only effi cacious measures which I hare just adopted to put an end to the innumerable calamities that affect our principality are founded on these principles. To remedy those evils, to give vigour to the military operations, to employ the na tional militia in a useful manner, to re-animate the country which is in danger, to destroy a devastating enemy, to pre serve our families and fortunes, to regulate the contribu tions, and render them more—in a word, to save the country and the Throne of the Innocent Isabella, recourse must be had to the means which, under difficult, yet less dangerous circumstances, the principality of Catalonia adopted in the war of independence, and on more recent occasions. These are the measures, extraordinary, it is true, but legal, which I have judged it useful to adopt, for the safety of the people is the supreme law. (Here the measures which are already known are enumerated.) General Pastor says in this proclamation that he will give an account of these measures to her Majesty, in order to obtain her approbation. But meantime they are already carried into effect, and even should the Queen's Government not approve them, they will be continued notwithstanding, for the Catalonians are resolved to manage their affairs themselves. The Garde National of yesterday says, " We have been undeceived, and see how little we can depend on curtain men who figure in the Government at Madrid ; this kind of illiiindonment obliges us to have recourse to our own re sources to save the country and ourselves."

James Knowles, of Point Judith, in the last war, fired in an exposed situation near the ocean, and never went to bed without having his gun well charged by his side. One night there was a violent thunder gust, which shook the house to its foundation.

" By gosh," said Knowles, springing up and seizing the musket, " ready for either."—New York Paper. Died at Sibsey, on Friday last, aged 27, after a fortnight': . , illness, John Ward, a native of Huttoft, near Alford, an excavator on the works now going on iu Hohhole' Drain. His funeral on Sunday (being the feast) was at tended by 150 of his fellow workmen, in their holyday clothes, wearing on their hats white cockades, following the corpse three abreast. The body was enclosed in a hand some wainscot coffin, covered with a pall supported by six women ; it was conjectured that more than 1,500 spec tators were present, the turnpike-road being thronged from the place where he died to the churchyard, which is about a quarter of a wile distent. The church was crowded to excess, as also the grave sides, yet the greatest decorum prevailed on the solemn occasion. There had not been such an occurrence at that place since 1801, when the great work of drains was first making. SCOTCH ALE.—I would also say a few words on the method of brewing beer, lately introduced from Scot land, which English farmers may find it convenient to adopt. The wort is made and also boiled with the hops, in the usu a l manner , a ddi ng t h ree -f ourt h s o f an ounce o f !sing-glass to every hogshead of wort ; but instead of cool ing it, and addi ng th e yeast to pro d uce f ermentat i on, t h e hot liquor is put immediately into the cask, and in some days it cools, and then ferments in a peculiar manner, without the addition of any ferment, and in the usual time is found to be converted into an excellent liquor, quite fine and mellow. lam told it generally turns out to be supe rior to beer brewed in the usual way, at the same time there is a saving of one-fourth part of the malt, three bushels producing as good a cask of beer as four by the old method.—Correspondent of. the Buck's Gazette.

A large amount of Stock was brought to market, supposed to pay the cost of the recent elections ; but after the sales were effected, the market rather improved, and Consols closed at 91 3 for Money, and at 91* 3 for the Account ; opened this morning at 9114 for the Account.

FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE RIVER THAMES.-- Last night, between nine and ten o'clock, a fatal and me lancholy accident occurred off Hungerford-market to a fine young man of the name of Reeves, 18 years of age, son of Mrs. Reeves, a widow, a market-gardener at Covent-garden market : and William Gill, another young man, his com panion, in the employ of Mr. Biggs, also a market-gardener. It appears that they both left Covent-garden market for the purpose of bathing, after having received the fruit and vegetables for the day's market, and proceeded to Hunger ford-stairs, where they procured a boat in order to bathe. They had not been long out before cries of help were heard, and several boats put off to their assistance, but from it being dark they could not receive assistance in sufficient time, and both were drowned. The bodies were afterwards found, when one was conveyed to Mr. Staunton's, surgeon, Strand ; and the other to Mr. Hunt's, of the Savoy Palace ; but the most assiduous efforts to restore animation proved unavailing, and the bodies now lie for the Coroner's inquest. COAL HOLE TAVERN STRAND.—This old esta blished and highly respectable place of public amusement con tinues to draw from all quarters. It is crowded every night by Noblemen and Gentlemen, who, we need hardly say, evince the highest gratification from the well conducted and unrivalled convivial meetings. The singing is, as it always has been, of the first order. The wines and spirits are of the choicest quality. Yesterday, in compliiance with a requisition, nume rously and respectably signed, to the High Sheriff, Sir Hyde Parker, a public meeting of the gentry, clergy, and inhabitants of the county of Suffolk, was held at Stow market, " for the purpose of voting an Address of Condo lence to her most gracious Majesty, upon the death of the late King, and of loyal and dutiful congratulation upon her Majesty's accession to the Throne of these realms." The meeting was attended by about a thousand persons. We learn from the Bucks Gazette that a meeting has been held at Aylesbury also to present Addresses to her Majesty, Queen V:ctoria, and the Queen Dowager Adelaide. NOSOLOGICAL DISCOVERY —Here is glorious news for all parents whose children are possessed of noses ! We always thought that the nose was meant for higher purposes than mere sneezing, and now the secret is out. So says an Eastern paper :—" Important to Nurses.—We have been much amused by beholding one of the readiest modes of silencing squalling children we remember to have either heard or read of So desirable a piece of knowledge is worthy of being universally known, and we therefore give it publicity. Take the child in its cross fits, and press your finger gently and repeatedly across the cartilage of the nose, and in less than a minute it will be asleep."—Ameri can Paper. The dispute respecting prices is likely to be amica bly and satisfactorily settled.—Coventry Herald. Baron Bulow, who took his leave a few days since of the Queen, has been detained by the non-arrival of his First Secretary, who has been at the Baths of Marienbad. This gentleman, Baron Seckendorf, arrived on Tuesday, was presented on Thursday, and the Baron leaves by the next liamburgh steam-boat. ATHENS, JULY 6 —We have received from Pera the joyful intelligence that the plague has totally disappeared. The accounts from Maina are also favourable. According to a report from Major Fedder, the troubles there are sup pressed.—Dutch Paper. A report of the death of the Earl of Carlisle has been very current in this town, and has obtained some credence. We have been unable to ascertain whether there is any foundation for the report, or it is one of the idle rumours which gut spread over the country no 'one knows how. If true, the melancholy event will cause a va cancy in the West Riding of Yorkshire, by the succession of Lord Morpeth to the rank and title of his father.— Blackburn Standard. About three weeks ago a prisoner contrived to effect his escape from the General Penitentiary, at Mill bank. The enterprise was ingeniously planned and boldly executed. Short, however, was his triumph. After prowling about in constant dread of 'detteCtion, he was yesterday given up by some of his depraved associates, and safely lodged in his old quarters, having experienced how little trust is to be placed in those who are only banded together by the ties of wickedness, and how ready they arc, like the master they serve, to leave one another in the lurch. The inducement in this instance was the reward offered by Government. At Loughborough, on Wednesday (the Blue election day) the ringers were ringing the bells, when, all of a sudden, it was found that the tenor, or sixth bell, had been so much cracked, that it must be taken down and re-cast, or a new one substituted in its place. The weight of the bell is 28/ cwt. The intimidation at the recent elections has com pelled many persons to become converts to the Ballot. We allude to the addresses in Montgomeryshire, especially those o f Colonel Edwards, Captain Thruston, and Sir W. Rouse Boughton. A man of the name of Robinson fell a sacrifice to intemperance at Witton, in this county, last week. He had drank excessively, and was much intoxicated. On the fol lowing morning he repeated his visit to the liquor vault, and again drank a quantity of rum, atter which he suddenly ex pired. —Ch ester Chronicle.

The Duke of Rutland and the Marquis of Granby intended to leave Belvoir Castle yesterday for Haddow Hall, in Derbyshire. His Majesty the King of Saxony has been taken ill at Laybach, the fatigue of the journey having, apparently, proved too great for his Majesty's advanced age. The Queen left Dresden, on the 3d instant, to proceed, by the way of Prague, to join her Royal consort. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Sweden arrived in Hamburgh on the 7th instant, on his way from Munich to Stockholm. The Earl and Countess Grosvenor left town on Wed nesday last for Dunrobin Castle, the seat of the Duke of Sutherland, in the Highlands. The Earl and Countess of Sefton, the Ladies Mo lyneux, and other branches of the family do not intend to leave town this year, except in o ccasional excursions te their villa at Windsor. The Earl of Carlisle's indisposition is not of a se rious nature. The Marquis and Marchioness of Ailesbury's de parture has been postponed until to-morrow, when the Noble Marquis and Marchioness will proceed direct to Antwerp, instead of to Dover, as originally intended. Mr. and Lady Gcorgiana Codringtou left Park place yesterday for Dover, en route to Paris, from whence they proceed to Rome, and return to England in about four months. , The Dowager Landgravin e of Hesse Homburg is said to have taken a house at Frankfort for the ensuing winter. The Commissioners of Woods and Forests, acting upon plans executed by her Majesty the Queen, remarkable for the taste and judgment in arrangement which they dis play, have given orders for the immediate employment of several hundred persons, for laying out not only the spacious grounds immediately adjoining Buckingham Palace, but also a great portion of the Green Park, the improvements in which will, it is understood, be en suite with those in St. James's Park. A full view of both Parks is com manded from the windows of her Majesty's private apart ments. Except from these windows, no adequate idea can be formed of the extreme beauty of the landscape below. At Moor Park there are no less than 80 labourers employed daily, independent of the other workpeople. St. Martin's Church is undergoing a complete in ternal decoration, much to the satisfaction of the parish ioners, who have of late been loud in their complaints re specting its conditicn. The Duke of Northumberland has contributed 100/. for the purpose of making such trifling decorations as the churchwardens could not feel justified in charging to the pew-rent fund. The Duke of Sussex, attended by Captain Lord John Churchill, is expected to leave Kensington Palace in a few days on a tour. The King of Wirtemburg, attended by his Ex cellency Count Mandelsloh, counsellor of state and his Majesty's resident minister at the British Court, left the Clarendon yesterday, to visit the Queen Dowager at Bushy Park. The King partook of luncheon at the Queen's lodge, and returned to town to dine with her Majesty and the Duchess of Kent, at Buckingham Palace. The Marquis Wellesley is residing in retirement at his villa, in the Fulham-road, and sees little company. The Marchioness is in improved health, and in waiting at pre sent as one of the ladies of the bedchamber, at Bushy, to her Majesty the Queen Dowager. The Marquis de Fayal, eldest son of the Duke of Palmella, arrived at the Clarendon, on Thursday from Paris. Lord and Lady Canterbury and family have ar rived at Dcippe, from Paris, for the benefit of the bains de suer, at that marine resort. Viscount Ingestre and Lady Sarah are making a tour in the north of Europe. They are now at St. Pe tersburgh. His Lordship was elected M.P. fbr South Staffordshire during his absence from England.

THE BALLOT.— The election o f th e r enegade of of Westminster for North Wilts is merely one more of the loud warnings gathering round the Ministers, that they must ~-.~ afford the Ballot to the free exercise of th e elective rights, chartered by the Constitution to the people.. .ITiolence and tyranny of the foulest description have vanq ul - she‘d the inde- Dendenee And trampled on the consciences of tits' electors. „ it :In strut * not merely at this county, hu At the principles Gr Viscount ViliitP4 bag Lft Berkeley-sqm ',re for Wey mouth, where his Const'itml.ita have invited the, Noble Lord and his colleagues to a banquet. THE STANDARD FABLES' We wish our excel lent cotemporary the Standard wouN not itkiralf :e in fancies till it believes them to be facts. I'Lus we .nave in that journal on Wednesday night a long sp Lech a ttributed to Lord Melbourne, which our contemporary .state s" he firmly believes to have been repeated by the Premit'e a 'ore than a . dozen times," ending with the words—" I wili. therefore, resign office." Now as no authority but that of an anony mous Whig is given for ffiis declaration, the , 13".andard must forgive us if we wholly disbelieve the statoniet..t, and express our opinion that he has been imposed upon b). one of those many dealers in the marvellous .vhose news 11 y xerally alleged to be authentic in proportion to its want, of all authenticity whatsoever.--lieraid. The sittings of the German Diet arc to re-commence , at Frankfort on the 17th inst. Applications for tickets for the flora! show at Wor ton Lodge must contain the names of the pe.-son s for whom they are to be filled up. Upwards of two hundr,ed of the: • nobility have accepted invitations. The issue• of tickets . upon the application of the nobility and gentr:r will only be limited by the number who can be convenienAy accom modated ; the arrangements are under the direction of Mr. Glenny. A complete revolution is expected to take place in the manufacture of native sugar—a revolution whit 41 will probably compel the beet-root growers to " hide their nished heads." In other words, the pumpkin is aboty.t to enter the field as a rival of the beet-root, and to force. the Chamber of Deputies to revise its late enactment on t he sugar question. An industrious speculator is on the poi. it of establishing a manufactory for extracting sugar fr.pt this overgrown and hitherto despised production of t vegetable world, the first experiments on which, it is added, have been crowned with complete success.—French Paper. We have again witnessed the effects of Tory gold'. and Tory intimidation, in the event of South Devon elec tion. No blame can be attributed to the Reformers of this district; they have nobly done their duty. How can we wonder at Mr. Bulteel's minority ? It was really painful to see the tribes of Tory voters driven to the poll mar shalled either by their landlords or parsons. The rueful countenances of those men exhibited abundant proof of Tory oppressiou.—Sherborne Journal. ONE VOTB LOST !—The Stirlingshire election, according to the latest accounts of the Tories themselves, has only been gained to them and lost to the Liberals by one solitary vote. Now, we are assured on good autho rity, that Captain A. G. Speirs, of Culcreugh, ex-M.P. for Radical Paisley, and a voter standing on the rail for this county, in which his domicile and property are situated, was actually within fifty yards of the polling-booth, .and was earnestly intreated to go forward and vote for Abercromby, but he declined to do so from " motives of delicacy.' Mo tives of delicacy forsooth, when a great public principle is at stake—when the cause of Reform is in peril! A fig for such gentry. In noticing Mr. A. G. Speirs, we show that no motives of delicacy whatever will prevent us from castigating pretended friends any more than open foes. Pity that the cause of Reform is sometimes injured by the want of true hearts and sound bottoms.—Reformer's Gazette. The heavy rains which fell last week have• been suc ceeded by several days of uninterrupted sunshine. Indeed. since Saturday morning last, the weather has been most remarkably fine ; and the country in our neighbourhood is again looking fresh and beautiful.—Scotsman. The man who was found on Sunday night in a state of Ludity, with several wounds in different parts of his body, is sufficiently recovered to be enabled to talk. He states his name to be James Gibbon, and that he has worked as a labourer on different railroads. The surgeon who has attended him, the master of the poor-house, and the police, have every reason to believe he a ttempted to commit suicide, although he states he was attacked by three men. Further search has been made for the clothes of thelunfortunate man, but they cannot be found. On Monday evening as three ladies were erossing St. James's-park, on of them received a severe blow frno a stone or other missile, which so seriously affected her that she was with difficulty supported to Whitehall by her terrified companions, and conveyed home in a coach ; g reat mental irritation followed, to which delirium succeeded, and surgical aid became necessary, but the lady is still suffering from the intensity of the attack. It is devoutly to be wished the authorities may use increased vigilance to prevent a re currence of similar outrage, and allow the timid the recrea tion necessary to health, without a fear of sustaining injury. The institute of British Architects has now become a Royal institute, in consequence of her Majesty having' become patroness of that corporate body. Baron Alexander von Humboldt announces that Professor Parrot, of Dorpat, has unde,vtaken a scientific journey to the North Cape, and has expretoed a wish that magnetic observations should be made by scientific men in different parts of Europe on the 21st, 24th, 2.Bth, or 31st of the present month of August, with a view to advance the theory of the magnetism of the earth. The traveller wishes the observations to be taken at intervals of five mi nutes from noon on any one of the above days, till noon on the following day, by mean of Gottingen time. The celebrated diamond taken from the Deccan prizes, called " The Nassuck ;" the diamond ear-rings, pre sented by the Nabob of Arcot to the late Queen Char. lotte ; and the brilliant brooch, purchased by Mr. Emanuel , of Bevis-marks, were sold last week to the Marquis of Westminster, and presented by the Noble Lord to his Lady, as a birthday present. TORY BRIBERY.---AS a sample of the desperate efforts made by the Tories in order to procure votes in sup port of their own candidates for the county of Middlesex , and to cause the rejection of Mr. Hume, the following fact may be fully relied upon as derived from unquestionable au thority. Some time since, a person bought a small freehold in the county, and just on the eve of the late 'lection, he re ceived a letter from Mr. Wood's Committee, offering to purchase his freehold at the sum of 1001. more than he had given for it. Now, what was this but the offer of 100/. f o r a vote ? The bait, however, did not succeed ; the offer was scouted ; and the honest and independent eleeor re corded his vote for Mr. Hume. The letter alluded iv is ex tant, and shoultd,athtp so manyerodu truth of of of . this tiitle statement be challenre m d• accuracy.

On Thursday last the Celerity coach, on its way to Exeter, with a - full load, in descending a slope near the embankment turnpike, the pole of the coach sudde lIY snapped, when the coachman, losing command of the horses , and they having the whole weight of the coach upon them , was thrown off, and the coach ran against the gate. 'no concussion threw from their seats Captain Austen, R.N.: Lieut. Smith, R.N., and Mr. Dickson, son of Colone l Dickson, the former of whom was severely injured, and the latter gentleman slightly so.—Plymouth Journal. DARING BURGLARY.—On Wednesday rnorniti° last, as" Sol," the private watchman of Wapping, was g oing his rounds about '2 o'clock, he observed a light in the lower part of the premises known as the Golden Anchor, in High' street, kept by Mr. Ballantine, a ship-owner. The circtn' stance excited his suspicion, and he immediately proceede d to alarm the inmates, and by ringing the house bell, he sue' ceeded in awaking Mr. Ballantine, who came to his bed room window to ascertain the cause of the alarm, Ivb ec/ the watchman communicated to him what he had se:" . Mr. Ballantine lost no time in coming down stairs, (having first armed himself with a cutlass) and letting the watchman in, when he found his house had been broken into, and they commenced a search after the thieves, but without detecting them, for they had managed to escape, it is supposed by way they had entered, while the watchman was alarnii" t b r o a u c r ted liv t i o ng the hou se by M rs .

By this time the policeman, who was er opposite ca lli ng ou t " PolitZ," when T s - : ther and more r i g id searc h was ma d e , an d it was ti covered that the thieves, after regaling themstii'es of the shrub cask, had emptied the till and packtt , ready to take away a very good double-barrelled g° 1 11 musical box worth 121., money, and other valuables. burglars in their retreat dropped a considerable part of the contents of the till and a half-a-dozen silver spoons. .k ir way in whi c h th e y obtained an entrance was by Climb It over a shed, proceeding through the timber yard AdA„g ifig, and from thence through a window sash (ha vir ; broken a pane of glass for that purpose), into a Pa s , q4 ,i, that gave them access to the bar, which they ransen' e . and disturbed everything.
