In consequence of the great anxiety expressed by our Country Subscribers to obtain copies of the EXPRESS EDITIONS of THE SUN, we beg to state, that all those who reside in the vici nity of the great towns, or on the great lines of roads, will in future receive EXPRESS EDITIONS on all important occasions, and no others than sub scribers. It is, therefore, indispensable that those who wish to be supplied with the LATEST NEWS, should order their Papers with the least possible delay. If there be any obstacle in obtaining EXPRESS 'TIONS by subscribers, a line addressed to the Once will obviate the difficulty. Sun Office, March 3, 1835. We have received so many letters from Subscribers, anxious to have the EXPRESS EDITIONS of THE SUN, that we cannot, without considerable delay, give a separate answer to each. We, therefore, take this method of assuring our Friends that their wishes shall be duly attended to. TO CORRESPONDENTS. A. FROMA N'S Communication is much too long for insertion in our coin :Tins at present. The subject, however, is one on which we have bestowed considerable attention, and we shall take an early opportunity of bringing it before the public. The publication of THE SUN NEWSPAPER commenced this day at 5 nzinutcs-past 3 o'clock. >- S@ t ~'~~ • T c~ ter e -)1,01+ LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 3, 1335. The Parliamentary proceedings of last night are not without interest. In the House of Lords the Mar quis of WESTMINSTER, after stating that " under the extraordinary circumstances in which they were now placed," he did not deem it necessary to bring forward his promised motion to abolish voting by proxy in a legis lative, and quasi deliberative, assembly, alluded to the emancipation of-the Jews, and remarked that he was ready to make the motion on that subject, of which he had given notice, whenever those who were more immediately interested should express a wish to that effect. We are sure the Jews will not be slow to take the hint. The Noble Marquis then proceeded to ask what the Government meant to do with respect to pluralities and non-residence, and corrupt voting at elections?--for which last evil he seemed to think the Ballot was the only remedy. The Noble Mar quis also recommended the removal of the Bi shops from the House of Lords, and their re lief from all secular duties, in order that their minds may be wholly devoted to the important duties of their sacred office—a recommendation in which we most cordially concur. Lord WIIARNCLIFFE thought it very " inconvenient " to answer such questions with out regular notice, and the Duke of RICHMOND proved the necessity of the Bishops haying seats in the House, by the fact that he had appointed no less than half-a-dozen of them on a Committee, moved for by him the other night, for inquiring into the propriety of abolishing useless oaths. What peculiar services the Lords Spiritual are qualified to render to such a Com mittee, it would puzzle an ordinary understanding to find out. If the oaths are useless, it surely does not require the sanction or authority of the Right Rev. Bench that they should be abolished, and if the question be whether they are, or are not, useless, then it seems more proper for the decision of the Judges than of the Bishops. In the Commons the usual routine vote of thanks to his MAJESTY for his answer to the amended Address, was moved by Sir ROBERT PEEL, and agreed to. A Select Committee was then appointed to consider the subject of the erection of a new House of Commons on the old site. Lord JOHN RUSSELL and Mr. HUNIE gave the Ministers some home thrusts on their pertinacious ad hesion to place, after the repeated verdicts given against them on their trial.by the representatives of the people. The Right Hon. Baronet parried these thrusts with his usual dexterity, and all that could be screwed out of him was, that he did not consider the vote on the Amendment a vote of confidence ; but, nevertheless, he did not think that it said exactly, " You had better be off ;" and we are left to believe, that until some such gentle admonition is given by the House of Com mons, the Ministers do not mean to budge. Lord JOHN RUSSELL, conceiving that the KING'S answer to the Address was sufficiently ex plicit as _to the intentions of Ministers not to resort to a second dissolution, did not put any questions on that subject to the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. Mr. O'CONNELL extorted from the Right Hon. Baronet an explicit declaration that, in his Irish Church Reform, he would not consent to the appro priation of any ecclesiastical property but to ecclesias tical purposes, and that by " ecclesiastical purposes" he meant " purposes connected with the doctrines of the Established Church." We are happy to find that Mr. BERNAL was elected Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means on the motion of the Premier, who paid him some high and justly-merited compliments. There is great ad vantage (when the trick is adroitly performed) in making a merit of necessity. The moral influence put forth by the Liberals during the late struggle in the House of Commons, is not the least important part of the triumph which they ob tained. To any one who has perused the debates, the immeasurable superiority of the speeches of the Re formers, in point of principle and intelligence, to the orations of either the Tories or the Neutrals, must have been strikingly conspicuous. The Reformers have given most cogent reasons for the faith that is within them ; and, by their arguments, nobly refuted the calumny of factiousness by which their adversaries sought to asperse them. There is no one sentence in any speech proceeding from the opposition that admits of a destructive interpretation, not one expression of a violent, far less of an inflammatory character, through out the whole course of a discussion unsurpassed for energy and animation ; indeed the only intemperance displayed proceeded from a member of the Tory ranks, who, in his Conservative charity, desired to send Lord JOHN RUSSELL and his tag-rag-and-bobtail crew to supper with the ancient gentleman in sables below. The sagacity, temper and discretion exhibited by the Reformers are a gratifying assurance to the nation that a " reign of terror" is not necessarily to follow upon the expulsion of the present Ministers ; but rather, that a Government can, and will, be con structed which shall introduce measures of reform in the true spirit and principle of its popular signification —sound, efficient, and safe. Already have appeared significant symptoms of ratting. A Morning print in the interest of Govern ment, which hailed in terms of unqualified praise the matter of the/KING's Speech, and the running com mentary thereon of Sir ROBERT PEEL, has suddenly discovered that enough has not been promised ; that the people have a well-grounded right to expect more, and more specifically declared pledges, and that more accordingly they must have. The value of this dis covery, as the fore-running shadow of a coming event, the public will not be slow in understanding. The Tories have been heartily thrashed, and they writhe under the infliction; they cannot carry on the KING'S Government, and they know it. They know more over that they must give way : the pressure from with- out is too strong for them, and they see the inevitable crush that threatens their destruction. If any thing were wanting to make manifest to the country the real spirit of Toryism, the answer received by Lord JOHN RUSSELL, after the declaration of the majority, need only be referred to. The Government, at the close of a three days' debate on a vital question, and signally out-voted, took time to consider whether, by a side blow, it would not attempt to subvert the de cision the House had come to I The question showed the goodness of Lord JOHN'S tactics, and his just ap preciation of Tory principles ; whether the answer gave token of a high and lofty minded Government, submissive to public opinion, and regardful at once of public peace and private reputation, we shall not make it our business to enquire. In whatever way the present struggle between the Liberal and Conservative parties in the House of Commons terminate, we trust that as soon as it is fairly over, and the business of the State properly entered upon, no further impediments will be thrown in the way of those measures which the country has a a right to expect from a Reformed Parliament. Much remains to be done before the people can be either contented or tranquillized ; and it is morally impossible to do anything, if the whole time of the Legisla ture is to be frittered away in listening to crude frothy harangues —in settling personal quarrels among the Members—and what is still worse, if the House of Commons itself is' to be turned into an arena for the indulgence of chattering cox combry, imbecile egotism, and judicial vituperation. • We entertain the highest esteem and the most pro found veneration for the Representatives of the people of the United Kingdom—as a body we know they are unequalled in the world—but we have had sufficient experience of their general proceedings, to be aware that they are woefully deficient in any fixed aim, or proper method, of discharging the functions entrusted to them. And how can it be otherwise when every Member of the House is ambitious of being an orator —the mover of some two or three dozen of motions in a single session—and the author of half as many ill digested Bills, which are no sooner passed than the country pours in petitions for their repeal--not on account of their principles, but their crudities and inconsistencies ? Mark the general conduct of the house even when the most important question is before it. An Honourable Member makes a mo tion which gives him the right to reply ; and having concluded his speech, walks out, to prepare himself for a second display at the wind-up of the business. The majority follow his example, it being of no im portance who are present, provided there is an orator in expectancy ready to start upon his legs when an op portunity presents itself. From this it has happened that debates have been continued for several hours, the last speaker only entering the House as his prede cessor made his retiring bow to the Chair. Here then was presented the anomaly of speeches being delivered on both sides of a question in answer to others which were not heard—and if heard would not have been attended to ; the fact being that each orator had certain opi nions to express—certain elegancies to utter—certain arguments to make use of, which he judged would make an excellent appearance in the public journals, and place his name among the greatest men of the age. Each talked not to convince others of the correctness of his views, but to astonish his enemies and delight his friends out of doors ; and the listeners were chiefly attentive, as the most effectual way of securing an early and a patient hearing for themselves. The country must not permit the continuance of such a system of conducting public business as this ; and it is the duty of the legislature to devise some means of even partially remedying it. It were, moreover, of the greatest importance that each Member of Parliament on entering the House, would bethink himself what questions he really understands—for what evils he can suggest a practicable remedy—what laws press with undue severity on certain classes of the people—what taxes can be repealed or reduced without an injurious dimi nution of the public revenue—what branches of in dustry are most worthy of encouragement ; and having settled these things to his own satisfaction, henceforth P THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, MARCH 3, 1835. devote his particular attention to:them. It is not possible that every Member returned to Parlia ment can understand even one-half of the foreign and domestic relations of this vast and powerful empire. An entire life devoted to the subject would not suffice for the acquirement of so much varied infor mation ; and were it otherwise, the perpetual changes, fluctuations, and catastrophes to which all sublunary objects are liable, would render a constant recurrence to the testimony of others absolutely necessary. 'We do not wish to speak disrespectfully of any member of the House of Commons ; but we submit that hardly a day passes during an entire Session, in which we do not find gentlemen lauding institutions, or denouncing them-,--making motions or opposing them—moving bills or voting against them—and the most active in these various labours, who are noto riously known to be totally unacquainted with the laws, motions, and institutions then under the considera tion of the House. The ambition of many Mem bers to be everything prevents them from being any thing. They must regulate our commerce ; legislate for our colonies ; re-model our fleets ; improve our mo netary system ; discharge or increase our debt; and pass acts for compelling agriculturists to ride in their own carriages ; and the consequence of all this is, that they waste their time in a number of useless projects, and their greatest exertions only tend to retard the business of the State. The evil results of this course do not end here. The early part of the Session being whiled away in long, dull, prosy speeches, which are published in the news papers to be forgotten by all but the orators, twenty four hours after they are delivered, the close of it is taken up in passing a number of bills on most important subjects, to which no attention whatever had been di rected. In the beginning of a Session one bill is dis cussed for weeks together ; at the close of it, twenty more important ones are passed in a single night, with out so much as a passing remark on their provisions or general tendency Surely the House of Commons possesses in it self the means of correcting these abuses in its proceedings, without calling for the interferenee of the public press ; which, if once it be fairly directed against them, will not assuredly refrain from the ex posure of those Members who sanction them by their example. The indulgence of personal pique, the gratification of personal vanity, and the fostering of divisions among parties, are not reckoned amid the de- legated duties entailed on a seat in the House of Com mons. No, no—the country wants good and equitable laws, not long and sarcastic speeches ; well digested measures of Reform, not crude and contradictory motions, ending in smoke ; wine and oil to heal the wounds inflicted during the long night of Toryistn, not gall and vinegar to incurably inflame them. The Paris papers of Sunday have all been received, but they are barren of all interesting intelligence. As Marshal SouLT was not expected to arrive in Paris before a late hour yesterday, of course nothing further could be ascertained respecting the new Ministerial arrangements. The defeat of the English Ministry occasioned very little stir in Paris, although it may be expected to have a considerable effect on the future councils of LOUIS PHILIPPE. Intelligence from Bayonne to the 25th ult. has been received, which states that hostilities have partially ceased between the Royalist and Usurping armies. A Royal courier, the bearer of despatches to the British Government, from his Britannic MAJESTY'S Consul at Bilboa, was, on the 4th ult., stopped near Bergara by a party of Carlists, and conveyed a pri soner to the head-quarters of the Prince. The Usurper is reported to have ordered his instant release, and that a mule should be provided for him, if he • re quired one, to expedite his journey ; but be this as it may, the courier has not since made his appearance. Cape of Good Hope Journals to the 31st of De cember have been received, which bring intelligence that the Caffres have recently wade several diabolical attempts to destroy Graham's-Town, and carry away the property of the colonists in that neighbour hood. In the latter they succeeded to a consi derable extent, having driven some thousand heads of cattle among the mountains. The greatest alarm prevailed among the Colonists for several days ; the military were called out, and the local authorities took every precaution to defend the lives and property of the inhabitants. Notwithstanding these exertions, several lives were lost ; the Caffres waylaying and butchering the farmers wherever they could find them. After three days spent in repelling the repeated attacks of the Caffre hordes, Lieutenant Colonel Somerset and a detachment of the 75th Regi ment, succeeded in driving - them into their native fastnesses, but not before nearly an hundred of them had been killed in skirmishes with the troops. Mean while, the local authorities are actin e in preparing for the defence of the Colony. Military stores of all kinds were to have been sent to Graham's Town from Cape Town on the Ist of January ; and on the same day, the Hon. Colonel SMITH was to proceed with all expedition to join the troops in pursuit of the Caffres. The Ceylon Government Gazette of the 13th of August, contains a proclamation issued by his Excel lency Sir R. WILMOT HORTON to the inhabitants of the island, relative to a conspiracy against the British Government, which originated with certain Kandyan Chiefs and Priests, for the purpose of overthrowing British supremacy in the Island. One of the means chosen by the conspirators for effecting their treason able purpose was to represent to the natives that it was intended by the British Government to destroy the reli gion of Buddhoo, and to revive the system of compulsory service under which they had formerly groaned. This the Governor denies in the Proclamation, quoting the orders in Council for the protection of the believers in the mysteries of Bhuddhisin in their religious wor ship. The Proclamation further offers a free pardon to all but the principal conspirators, on divulging the secrets of the plot intrusted to them; and calls upon every loyal subject of the British Crown to co-operate with the British authorities in the punishment of the leading conspirators then in custody. It is further stated that every means had been taken to preserve the public peace, and that the local government was prepared to afford to the well disposed part of the com munity the fullest protection. LITERATURE. Vat. I. BOSWELL'S LIFE OF JOHNSON. Murray, London, 1835. If this work be completed in the same careful, in dustrious, searching spirit in which it has been com menced, it will be the most perfect thing of the sort ever published. Not only are the Johnsoniana of Boswell recorded, but those also of the majority of his cotemporaries—Hawkins, Piozzi, Murphy, Reynolds, Stephens, and others. In addition to this, the Doc tor's " Diary of his Tour into Wales," and his well known " Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides," are pro posed to be incorporated. Even in its present state, " Boswell's Life" is one of the most attractive books in existence—what, then, will it be, when thus am plified and illustrated?—when not an anecdote is left uugleancd, nor a single scrap of criticism or reflection left unnoticed ? We shall here have Johnson exhi bited in his best and truest colours. Great as he was- in his writings, it is allowed by Burke and others, that he was still greater in his conver sation, and. if a doubt vet exist on this point, the work before us will at once set it at rest. In every respect, we look on Mr. Murtay's edition of Boswell as mole important than any that has issued from the Press for many years. It does not merely give us a passing glimpse of the state of literature during the last century, but lets us into the very interior—into the sanctum sanctorum of the august temple. r We sit familiarly with Johnson, and Burke, and GartiOcat the tea-table by the fire-side in 80lt -court, or its more formal state with them at the Literary Club. We be-. come acquainted too—and this, by the bye, is not the least of the delights we owe to Boswell--with dear Goldsmith and his " peach-coloured" coat ; we listen to, and laugh at, his naive confessions of jealousy ; have the door in Bolt-court opened to us by " Barber, the black servant ;" and in the dusk of evening see gruff Sam stealing round the corner, to buy oysters for his cat, Hodge. Where is the book in existence that supplies us with such delightful reminiscences as these ? Where is the bibgrapl►er who so disinterestedly sacrifices himself to his idol, as Jemmy Boswell ? Honoured be his name ! He has made a fool of himself for the benefit of posterity, which will not be ungrateful for such heroic martyrdom. While Johnson's broad seventy four continues to sail down the stream of time, Bos well's little cock-boat shall accompany it, towed along in its wake, and attracting a due share of admiration. The present volume is got up in the most chaste and elegant style ; is illustrated with three clever embellish ments, one of which, sketching the visitors to Tun bridge 'Wells, among whom is Dr. Johnson, in the year 1748, is alone worth the price of the whole vo lume ; is printed in neat type, and bound handsomely in cloth. COLB URN'S MODERN NOVELISTS, Vol. 111. COLBURN. London, 1 835. We are here furnished with a re-publication of Lady 'lorgan's O'Donnell—perhaps the best, because the most national and truest to life, of any she has ever written—which is ushered in with a preface, penned in a more unassuming style than is usually the case with her versatile Ladyship. The tale is comprised in one handsome volume, and brings agreeably to our recol lection our prime favourites, Mac Rory, and Lady Llanberris. ARBORETUM BRITANNICUM. Longman: London, 1835. Another of Mr. Loudon's publications, containing a history and geography of the trees in the British Islands, together with a variety of carefully-engraved wood- cuts. FINE ARTS. We have just been favoured with the eleventh part of a series of Engravings taken from the works of the late Henry Liversege, which consists of three engrav ings, of which " Hudibras and Ralpho" is the best. The expression of the Knight's countenance happily realizes the idea we entertain of him, as pourtrayed by Butler. He is bursting with self-conceit and would be dignity, as one conscious of the importance of the mission to which he has devoted himself. His man Ralpho, who sits beside him in the stocks, is in deep shadow, and looks the very image of forlorn imbecility. The engraving of " Meg Merrilies meeting Young Hazlewood" is picturesque, as far as a certain sylvan effect goes ; but the witch wants character. She is merely an ugly old woman. The horse on which Hazlewood is mounted is easy, and vigorous in drawing. THE ANALYST. An entertaining journal, devoted to Science, Li. terature, and the Fine Arts. There are some pleas ing pieces of poetry in the present number, of which the best is the " Suicide." THE ARCHITECTURAL MAGAZINE. Longman and Co. This is a good number of a very useful publication, embellished with several handsome architectural orna ment: and designs. The article on the present state of domestic architecture on the continent, from the pen of the able Editor, Mr. Loudon, is deserving of the highest commendation for correctness, and general intelligibility. The domestic notices are interesting and well written. LONDON MEDICAL GA ZETTE. Longman and Co. We have received the March number of this publi cation, on the excellence of which it is quite super fluous to offer , any remark. It has already found its way into the hands of every medical practitioner, and the patronage of these gentlemen is the best testimo nial that can be adduced in favour of its claims to sup port. ASIATIC JO URNAL.—Parbury, London, 1835. The most useful, certainly the most seasonable, article before us, is that on the " Dispute with China," in which the conduct of the late Lord Napier is com mented en in an apparant spirit of truth and im partiality. The " Bar in India" is also an amusing paper, and the " Memoir of Dr. Morrison" contains some characteristic anecdotes. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) CALENDAR OF TH.

John Eldridge and Thomas Goshen were indicted for steal ing a cow, the property of William Newman. The case occupied the Court a considerable time, but the particulars were of uo public interest. The cow had been taken by Gosken, who was a drover, to a person to whom New man owed a sum of 6/. ; that person offered another 61. for the cow, so as to settle the account, which was refused, and the prisoners given into custody. After a great deal of evidence had been adduced, Mr. PHILLIPS, on the part of the prisoners, offered that the cow should be restored. Mr. CLARKSON, who was for the prosecution, was satisfied with the offer ; but Mr. Serjeant ARABIN said he could not allow justice to be defeated in such a manner. The case was in the hands of the Jury, and they must determine upon it. After an argument between the Counsel and the Bench, it was arranged that the cow should be restored ; and the Jury returned a verdict of acquittal for both the prisoners. The COURT was occupied the whole of the other part of the morning with trifling cases of no int erest to t h e pu bli c . The Judges do not take their seats till to-morrow. NEW COURT. George Jones and Edward Tomlinson were indicted for stealing 1861bs. of spun yarn, the property of Mr. Wright. The prisoners were found Guilty. Thomas Leward was indicted for stealing three smelling bottles, value 145., the property of Cornelius Ed. Norton, arid another. It appeared that the prisoner, on the 7th of February last, went into the shop of the prosecutors, who carry on the busi ness of chemists, in Tottenham-court -road, and was observe (1 by the shopman to put his hand into the glass case, and run off with the property in question.—Guilty. The prisoner, who is about eighteen years old, had been tried at the last sitting of the Court, for stealing from the person, and acquitted. He had been discharged on the 4th of Feb. and in three days afterwards had committed the offence of which he was now found Guilty. The COMMON. SERGEANT said,' as the prisoner appeared to be incorrigible, he should certainly be sent out of tilt country. Thcinas Gerney was indicted for embezzling two sums of 2s. 91. and Is. 7d., the property of his master, James Miller, a baker, residing at Putney.—Not Guilty. John Bezey was indicted for stealing two brushes, value 3s. 9d., the property of William Milton, a grocer, residing at Greenwich. The prisoner was seen lurking about the shop door, and afterwards going into the shop, and running off with the property. —G uilty. Robert Benstead was indicted for stealing four pigs, value 41. 10s., the property of Joseph White, of Green -street, Beth nal-green. The prosecutor deposed that he missed the pigs about six o'clock in the morning of the 7th of February last. Two policemen saw the prisoner driving four pigs answer ing the description of those stolen from the prosecutor about half-past six on the morning in question, in a direction from the prosecutor's house. Two witnesses swore that the prisoner did not leave his father's house till seven o'clock on that morning. . The Jury, under the Learned Sergeant's direction, acquitted the prisoner. Richard Evans was indicted for stealing a silk handkerchief from the pocket of Henry Hill. The prisoner was seen following the prosecutor down Lud gate-hill on the evening of the 21st Feb., and was observed to take the handkerchief out of his pocket.—Guilty. Roland Bassett was indicted for stealing an opera-glass, value 35., the property of his master, James Gardner, pro prietor of the Finsbury Bazaar, City-road. The prisoner offered the glass for sale at a shop in Shore ditch, and was apprehended. The Jury found him guilty, but recommended him to mercy in consequence of his extreme youth, and its being his first offence. SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.) } DEAL, MARCH 2.—Wind, W. S.

The Lieutenant-Governor has had the honour to receive a Circular despatch from the Under Secretary of State, dated Nov. 29th ; also a Circular despatch from the Duke of We' lington, of Dec. 1 : (Extract.) " Downing-street, Nov. 29. " Sir—The public prints will inform you that Lord Mel bourne's Administration has been dissolved, and you will have learned from the London Gazette that the Duke of Welling ton has been appointed by his Majesty First Lord of the Treasury and Secretary of State ; his appointment is only to be considered interim until the return to England of Sir Peel, when a new Administration will be formed. His Grace has not deemed it to be expedient that any official noti fication should be made to the Co:onial authorities abroad of an appointment of so provisional a character as that which he is now filling ; but it appeared to me desirable that you should receive from some authority an intima tion of the present posture of affairs at home, which may serve to account for the delay which must take place in the replies to your despatches, and to point out to you that until you receive further instructions from home, you should address such communisations as you may wish to make to his Majesty's Government, to the Secretary of State for the Colonial Department. (Signed) R. W. HAY." The other despatch communicates the death of his Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester, ( Signed) WELLINGTON. (From the Paper of the 9th January.)

THE SUN EXPRESS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sir,—lt is with great pleasure that I comply with the re quest of the Subscribers of my Public Reading Rooms at Weymouth. They desire that I should convey to you their most hearty thanks for sending them an Express Edition of the The Sun, containing the immediate result of the Amendment proposed to the Address. This intelligence arrived at the Rooms (138 miles from London) at half-past eight the same evening. They also beg to express their admiration of the public and liberal spirit which you manifest in conducting The Sun generally, and havo ordered through the Agent, an addi tional Sun to be laid on their table. I remain, Sir, your obedient Servant, Weymouth, Feb. 28, 1835. B. BENSON. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. DEAR Siff—l received your parcel with the Express Edi tions of The Sun, containing 16i columns of debate and the division on the amendment, at seven o'clock last evening, and immediately forwarded an enclosed parcel of Suns to Leeds, 33 miles, which I find arrived there in two hours and twenty minutes. I also sent to every one of your very numerous sub- . scribers ; also six to the New Commercial News Room, and the newspaper- offices, who all duly appreciate your most praise worthy exertions in giving the town of Sheffield the result of the division at least 14 hours earlier than by the regular channel of conveyance of the Morning Papers. lam happy to say that you have also a more substantial proof of the popu larity of your journal here, when I state that your subscribers have nearly trebled since the Session commenced, and that there is more than ten times the number taken than of any other Evening Paper.—Yours very respectfully, THOMAS WILEY, Agent for the Express Editions of The Still. Sheffield, Feb. 28. (From the Birmingham Journal of Sat&day.) In our paper of last week we had to notice the extraordinary exertions of The Sun newspaper, in expressing the debates on the Speakership, and we have this week to notice the ar rival of the King's Speech and the important result of the debate on the Address. An express edition of this paper arrived in Birmingham on Wednesday morning, at one o'clock, con taining the King's speech, and was conveyed to Manchester and Liverpool by T. Mansell, jun., in both of which places it was circulated between eight and nine o'clock on the fol lowing morning. Yesterday, by another extraordinary effort, an express arrived at Mansell's at a quarter before 2 o'clock, conveyed by Mr. Johnson, of Dublin, and which contained sixteen and a half columns, including the final result of the debate on the Address, which terminated at half-past two o'clock in the morning. The Express Edition of The Sun arrived at Mr. W. Cooper's, newspaper agent in this town, per Mr. Johnson, news agent of Dublin, at a quarter before two yesterday, con taining the debates and diviion upon the Address to the King, and was immediately forwarded to Dublin, and the towns ad joining Birmingham. (From the Portsmouth Herald of Feb. 28.) Our best thanks are due to the proprietors of The Sys evening paper, for an express edition of that journal, contain ing the division upon the Address, which arrived hero at noon the same day. (From the Sherborne Mercury, March 2.) We beg to notice and acknowledge the extraordinary des patch of The Sun newspaper. We were favoured with a copy by express on Friday evening, containing the division on the address, which anticipated the intelligence by mail to Sher borne by fourteen hours ! ( From the Cambrian [Swansea] of Feb. 28. ) By means of the extraordinary efforts of The Sun news paper, the whole of the report of the debate on the election or Speaker, with the triumphant result, WnS given in an express edition of that paper on Thursday se'nnight. We were fa voured with a copy, forwarded through the Bristol Post-office , for which our best thanks are due to the spirited proprietors of the above journal ; but as our own paper was published several hours before its arrival, we could not avail ourselves of its gratifying contents. It afforded, however, the pleasing information to a great number of gentlemen who had assem bled in our office to wait the result. The Sun is entitled not only to the thanks, but to the cordial support,. of the public generally, for its efforts to afford the latest information on questions of great public interest. (From the Cork Mercantile Chronicle, Feb. 23.) We have to acknowledge, with thanks, the kind attention of Messrs. Johnston and Co., Eden Quay, Dublin, for the second edition of The Sun of Thursday, they had received by Express, which is to the public of increased value by the London papers of Friday, due this morning, not having, yet (two o'clock) arrived at the Post-office. (From the We.rford Independent, Feb. 25.) We have again to express our acknowledgments to Messrs- Johnston and Co., for having supplied us with an express all" tion of The Sun, containing the debate on the Speakership several hours earlier than we could have obtained it throng!, the ordinary channels of communication. ( From the Waterford Mail of Feb. 25. ) We have to express our acknowledgments to the Messrs. Johnston, of Eden Quay, Dublin, from whom we received an express edition of The Sun of Thursday, containing the de bate, and which they kindly forwarded to all provincial con temporaries the same evening. On the steamer, which the Messrs. Johnston had engaged for the purpose, reaching Kingstown, their parcel of papers was forwarded to Dublin by the rail road, one carriage only being attached to the engirie , and the trip was performed in nine minutes ! Such exertions as this, and to s hich we gratefully testify, deserve the thanks of the public ; and we cannot but give utterance to sentiment s of admiration at the efficiency of the arrangements by which such unparalleled exertions are accomplished. (From the Mayo Constitution of Feb. 23.) We must bear testimony to the expedition by which Messrs. Johnston, of Eden Quay, our News Agents in Dublin, ha" been able to receive the latest Edition of The Slal, and wh o ' by this means, we believe, were the first to supply all the printing offices in Dublin and their country friends with the proceedings and the debate. (From the Waterford Mirror of Feb. 93.) To the Messrs. Johnston, of Eden Quay, Dublin, we beg to return our best thanks for an Express Edition of The Su b of Thursday, giving the debate on the Speakership at full length, and bringing it down to the very division. (From the Clare Journal of Feb. 23. ) We have to thank our agents Messrs. Johnston for the Express of The Sun. ( From the Dublin Evening Post of February 28. ) By an Extraordinary Express of The Sun, which, thanks t ° the energy and activity of our News Agent, Mr. Johnston, ha s just reached the Office of the Dublin Evening Post, we ar e enabl€d to lay the result of the Great Debate, which has call' pied so much and so intensely, the public mind, before the reader. (From the Galway Free Press, Feb. 21.) To the Messrs. Johnston and Co. we beg to offer our grateful acknowledgments, for the kindness and p ro mptnes s with which they forwarded to us The Sun Express, ,con taining the result of Thursday's debate. The public and the Press owe much to those gentlemen for the exertions they 3 variably make to furnish the earliest intelligence on matters °' great public interest. (From the Connaught Telegraph, Feb. 25. We beg to express our thanks to Messrs. Johnston for f°,!; warding us The Sun, received by their Express. The pub'l should feel indebted to those gentlemen for their very succes s ; ful efforts to supply early intelligence, which must be attend e " with considerable cost. DUBLIN. (PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. " Great is truth, and stronger than all things." Though this be the Sabbath Day, set apart for the contele' lation of Him who hath control over Princes and Potentates ; ; cannot, nevertheless, refrain from giving your readers se ll ' intimation of the effects produced by the Express Edition It The Sun, which arrived in this City yesterday evening. .4 is the more fit and proper that I should do so, as the sea's " quarto of four pages" has been, I fear, if not in the ba n j o; certainly in the heads of almost all the Godly people who : b ig day praised the Lord in the various temples of religion in , City and its neighbourhood, to the exclusion of a more e°1130,1 pact and important volume. In truth, the "glad tidings the " sad news" of the division on the amendment, have gresti:. interfered with our devotions this morning. The Sun Nerd paper arrived last night after most of the Evening Papers 'ld gone to press, and yet, strange to tell, several individuals as coteries had, before twelve o'clock, and all before c hurchh%, this morning, heard the important intelligence which it rng veyed ; and it is vain to deny that cheerful looks, and lo co faces, prompted several persons, very piously disposed, o f greet their acquaintances in the very vestibules and insl es ea churches with a " What's the news?" Such were the efceday of the " first impression" when your Second Edition of Fr'o came to complete our distraction, in prayer, by annotie' that Sir Robert Peel had wisely and manftilly resolved t?h°is to the decision of the House of Commons, and not divlcl e n ij further on the question of amendment. This is as it eb° t - bo be ; and we begin to hope that, as the Whigs have St_, ; ,‘ example, by abandoning all factious opposition, the "Allie will follow it, by deferring to the wishes of the peopl i e• wit h' Robert Peel, at least, can now demonstrate to his per , :► h eti out beginning the trade of agitation, what he must have -"jog himself long ago persuaded of—that the Tories, as a goire_, lll jo s ' faction, are completely extinguished.
