Everything considered, the speech delivered last eiTning in the House of Lords by the Earl of DEBBY will excite, we are persuaded, very general feelings of satisfaction. It was an inaugural address worthy of the man and of the occasion—bold but delicate, courageous but conciliatory, breathing throughout the fervour of a lofty and energetic ambition, but evidencing at the same time a recognition of the weak ness of the orator's position and of the vastness of his responsibilties. We can speak thus clearly and ex plicitly, because we are of no Party whatsoever. " Measures not Men" are at all periods the ob jects of our political aspirations. Partisans in no respect, we are ever enabled to regard without prejudice and without predilection the course pursued under different circumstances by the various statesmen undertaking the manifold and diffi cult offices of administration. Our opinions are " pinned down" to no school or class of politicians. Unlike the gentleman who said " ditto" to Mr. Buss, we are not disposed to uphold the views of any Ad ministration, however illustrious, when those views do not coincide with our own—looking as we always have done, and as we always shall do, not to the per sonage advocating the principle, but to the na ture of the principle advocated. Situated thus aloof from cliques and factions, we are prepared to commend the Whigs whenever we deem them worthy of commendation, to applaud the Tories whenever we conceive them entitled to applause, to eulogise the Liberals whenever we con ceive they merit eukgium, and to admire the conduct of Conservatives whenever that conduct appears to us in any way whatever to call for our admiration. Precisely in a similar manner are we ready to ex press the dissatisfaction with which at any moment we may observe the fallible policy carried out by these same Whigs, Tories, Liberals, or Conservatives. It is from this independent position, which we have long secured to ourselves that we are enabled to pronounce an estimate of the value of Lord DERBY'S speech of yesterday evening, the more deci sively, unbiassed by animosity, and uninfluenced by infatuation. That speech we regard in every respect as befitting the lips of a statesman, elevated by cir cumstances to the office of conducting the affairs of the British Government. It was an oration worthy of " the - RUPERT of debate," now the Prime Minister of England. _ _ Nothing could be more admirable in every respect than the tone of the allusion which was necessarily made by the First Lord of the Treasury to the question affecting the principles of free trade, a question of su preme importance to himself as the avowed and recog nised leader of the Protectionists. That corn should be made the exception in any way he acknowledged was to him inexplicable. Yet, frankly confessing his belief in the wisdom of a monopoly, which we con sider to have been both detrimental to the national interests and prejudicial to the interests of humanity, the PREMIER declared almost in the same breath his determination to waive at least for a while a cause of contention which, if revived again, and that precipitately, might prove nut only injurious but disastrous to a very considerable part of the popula tion. He maintained, moreover, that although he himself and his supporters considered that a moderate impost at least should be levied upon corn, if for nothing else, merely for purposes of revenue, it might so happen that in so thinking they were mistaken : and under any circumstances the duty of changing thus radically the fiscal and commercial policy of the nation reposed not with himself, but with the general community, not with an isolated party, but with the entire population. Besides thi., the Noble Earl fairly and freely avowed that he should restrict himself during the course of the present ses sion to that ordinary routine of the Legislature in regard to which there could scarcely be the possi bility of a misunderstanding —not certain that he had a majority in the House of Lords, and quite certain that he was in a minority in the Howe of Commons. After this manly but conciliatory appeal to the more magnanimous sentiments of the Parliament, this can did and honourable argumentum ad misericordiam, it is deeply to be regretted that any notice of motion should already have appeared, of a nature calculated to engender anew the bitterest feelings of rivalry between the Free-traders and the Protec tionists. Such, however, is unfortunately already the case, the Honourable Gentleman the Member for Wolverhampton having announced last night his in tention of bringing forward at an early period the very subject it would have been judicious to have passed over, without reviving it in a manner such as, under the circumstances, might reasonably be looked upon as little less than actually factious. The services of the Hon. CHARLES PEL HAM VILLIERS we have always to the fullest extent appreciated. When those services appeared to be overlooked by almost every one else in the United Kingdom, being disregarded in the midst of the noisier popularity of men who reaped where the representative of Wolverhampton had sown, we re peatedly endeavoured to recall to the remembrance of the people the fact that CHARLES VILLIERS was the first energetic advocate of the abolition of the Corn-laws, that he was to Free Trade what Coeusa nn3 was to America, that he stood before the country on the floor of the House of Commons, year after year, session after session—alone—the champion of the principles of unrestricted commerce at a time when those principles were nothing better than objects of contempt and of ridicule. Such are the opinions we have all along maintained in reference to the man whom we honour as the first champion of Free Trade. Such is the estimate we still entertain of his long and arduous career as the opponent of the doctrines of Protection. Such are the grateful sentiments with which we, as Free-traders, must always cherish a remembrance of his exertions. Yet, we cannot but consider him to be on the present occasion very grievously and la mentably mistaken. His course, under the peculiar circumstances of the case, must inevitably be repro bated as factious by many even of those who sympathise the most cordially with his desire to see the nation saved from falling anew in the slough of monopoly. And hence we regret the fact that he bas not refrained from thus girding at the leaders of the Country Party—seeing that everyone must coincide in th e j us ti ce o f th e hope expr essed by the Earl of DERBY, that no unne cessary obstacles may be placed in the way of her MAJESTY'S Mi nisterg, at l east yet awhile, so as to interfere injuriously with the cfequisiteus t omary and absolutely operations of th e machinery of Government. Apart from the continued belief expressed by the nes of the a gr i cu lt ura l little, indeed p aimE Alrees vi T e Eet can in d t i h s e co d v o e c r tri mo nopolists, indeed, to cavil at in the sen timents enunci a t e d by him in o f his inaugural a d dress to the of the Imperial p grace ful r ament. I n the opening l u th p e per cou u rs o e use late Lord President of the the tribute to of that a ddress the Earl o ff ered a Council, the Most Noble the Marquis of he way, appears to be th e Dowse [who, by t only member of the late Government wh o h as r the "good thi ngs " come in for any of in th e way o f approva l , the sweetmeats and the b on _ boos of official compliment], and aft er glancing ra pidly over th e course b e should deem it advi sable to p ursue i n one or other of the principal departments of the Administration, cro wned his s p eec h b y a perora tion such as m i g ht have been expected from one of the most ac complished and classic orators of the age. Among the more remarkable topics touched upon in I that memorable address of last evening, the country will rejoice to observe that portion relative to the foreign Policy, which, under the influence of the Earl of DERBY as Premier is likely to be remodelled upon principles in some degree at , least comparable to those pacific And lAttiotic • *ll. -- ••••4 ,'• : I 6 4 . J A WT. •' • • ' - ` ll4' Xl` i • • ' '. . ,itt asa ; • 1111 .- X 3 . • , P"' • • . pies which were the guiding lights of Lord PALMEBB• TON'S administration. For the reasons we have here particularised, therefore, we are disposed to regard with peculiar satisfaction the speech delivered yester day by the First Lord of the Treasury—assuring us, as it does, that at any rate for the interregnum now absolutely requisite, under the circumstances, the Derby-Disraeli Cabinet will act as becomes the m embers of an enlightened and patriotic Govern ment. The curtain has fallen on the first act of the Ministerial drama. The new PREMIEN has completed his arrangements. The Cabinet is formed—its mem bers have received the seals of their respective offices, which had been previously surrendered by their pre decessors, and new writs have been ordered to issue for the election of Members for the several constitu encies formerly represented by those of the recent appointees who belonged to the Commons House of Parliament. So far all went on in the ordinary course. No important explanations could be offered, no authentic information revealed, until the Ministers of the Crown resumed their places in the popular branch of the Legislature. And the public business and the public curiosity should alike remain suspended until the termination of the different elections, more especially of that for Buckingham shire, when the creator, the organizer, and the leader of the existing Government, will make the state ment that could not properly be put forward by any other Commoner in the country. It was, however, otherwise, in the House of Peers. The First Lord of the Treasury and nominal head of the Government was naturally expected to offer some indications of the line of policy which he him self and his colleagues were inclined to pursue. It was not, of course, for a moment anticipated that the Noble Earl would enter into details. All that could reasonably be hoped for, was that he would sketch a bold outline to be subsequently filled up in its various parts—that he would declare whether or not there was to be an immediate, or even a speedy dissolution so ' soon as the formal busi ness of the session had been gone through, or whether he would introduce any and what ques tions of interest and imp ortance for the considera tion of the present House of Commons. But the most intense anxiety was felt with respect to the class of measures which have given a name to his party, and banded together the agriculturists in an organized body to seek the re-imposition of a bread tax, or, in other words, to compel the remainder of her MAJESTT I S subjects to pay a black mail or tribute to themselves. There was also a strong feeling in reference to the pro positions fur legal and social amelioration, whether the session would be consumed without any further progress being attained on these matters. On these different points the Noble Earl spoke clearly and explicitly. Within the present week we ex pressed our " thorough conviction that until after the dissolutio n a corn-law would not even be brought under the notice of Parliament." That anticipation has already been realizsd, and we now believe that it will never come before the Legislature ; for the PRE MIER, while frankly and explicitly avowing his own predilections and individual views, declared that " the question could only be satisfactorily solved by reference to the well understood and clearly ex pressed opinion of the intelligent portion of the com munity." As we have not the slightest doubt as to what the effect of that opinion will be, we rest tran quil and undisturbed on the subject. We are ready to take up arms whenever there shall be any aggres sion, but we do not think it necessary to provoke a conflict. We have, however, spoken so fully on the foreign policy, and also on that relating to the corn duties in a former part of our impression, that we shall pass on to the subjects on which we may ex p ec t legislation during the present session, and with the existing House of Commons. The Noble Earl declared bis belief that " if avoid ing all unnecessary party measures, the Ministry ap plied themselves to those great measures the country has so long been expecting—measures of legal reform, for improving and simplifying the administration of law and justice, and measures of social reform, for improving the condition and comforts of the people —that, even with a minority in the House of Com mons, they should not be uselessly or dishonourably conducting the affairs of the country." We concur in the opinion. Let the propositions alluded to by the Noble Earl be fairly brought for ward and calmly considered, without bias or prejudice. If good, we shall lend them a disinterested support, without reference to the quarter from whence they have emanated. On Thursday we declared that "so long as the questions of ' Protection' and the re imposition of taxes on human food remain in abey ance we were by no means indisposed to give a fair trial to the present Government." These questions have since been placed in abeyance, and until their revival we shall fairly and impartially weigh every suggestion, deciding on its own intrinsic merits, and offering no factious opposition. We are assured that the LORD CHANCELLOR Will lose no time in applying his powerful mind to the con sideration of the subject and the promotion of reforms recommended by the Commission. That in itself is a pleasing announcement; but we know little of the LORD CHANCELLOR, if, when once he has got scent of a grievance, he do not follow it to the uttermost, and, if possible, extirpate it root and branch. He will not be contented with trivial changes, merely pruning the noxious weed so as for a time to induce the notion that it had been greatly reduced in magnitude, but only that it might after a brief period again flourish in rank luxuriance. From the statement we believe that we shall find that not only every judi cious recommendation of the Commissioners will be carried into operation, but that other and more ex tensive ameliorations will also be brought forward of a nature eminently beneficial to the suitors, and, by a necessary consequence, to the community in general. The Noble Earl declares that amoegst the mea sures of social improvement he does not include one recently introduced by his predecessor for the extee sion of the franchise. He has, however, promised that if the existence of any substantial grievance be shown or proved, the Ministry will be ready to endeavour to meet those grievances, if they can see that a remedy could be effectively applied without involving future danger to the safety of the Constitu tion and the internal peace of the country. Ba it so. Not one, but many grievances, and those of the most serious character, have been established beyond the possibility of doubt or contradiction. The case for relief has been clearly made out. We do not press for an immediate solution of the problem, but the Noble Earl must be well aware that Parliamentary reform is one of the necessities of the period, and that no party can remain in power who are opposed to the reason able wishes of the people in these respects. We are willing to give him a reasonable time to make up his mind, but there must not be too much procrastination, or " the reference to the well understood and clearly expressed opinion of the intelligent portion of the community " will but too clearly con vince him of his mistake. Of this he may rest assured, that no measure of Parliamentary reform will prove satisfactory which does not comprise a large extension of the franchise, a shortening of the duration of Parliament, a total abolition of the property qualification f or M em b e rs, a more equitable distribution of electoral power, but, above all and beyond all, " the ballot," the only means of affording protection to the voter, and pre venting the bribery, corruption, and intimidation that has but too frequently been resorted to at contested elections.

Don Neer Chronicle. Ptred on Wednesday THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Constitutionnel has an article on the change of Ministry in England. The Protectionist principles of the new Cabinet are a recommendation for the Constitutionnel, which, as our readers know, is the Protectionist organ in France. It says— " The truth is that England has had enough of uncer tainty, which for the last year has been weighing alike on all parties. The desire now is to have a Ministry assured of a majority in Parliament, and capable of go verning, the country. Now it appears to us by no means unlikely that a general election would give Earl Derby a working majority. For the last three years individual elections have, to the number of from 25 to 30, turned to the profit of the Protectionists, and their adversaries would be less irritated and angry if they really felt the confidence they so loudly affect. The good sense of the English people is, in our eyes, a reason for believing in the success of Lord Derby. The Eng lish, like all practical roople, have no taste for extremes. At this raomemt the Whigs, Peelites, and Radicals, are the ultras on the subject of free trade, and it is Lord Derby and his friends who represent the midd!e ground of reconciliation of all interests. There lies their force, aid the English people which showed so much indiffe rence for the new electoral reform, will not, on the other band, sacrifice its interests to the infallibility o f Messrs. Cobden and Co." There appearg, however, in the Debats a strong article of a totally opposite tendency, from the pen of M. MICUEL CHEVALIER.

GERMANY. The Prussian Gazette, of the 23c1, publishes several diplomatic notes on the subject of the foreign refu. gees in London. They confirm the announcement already made, that the Prussian Cabinet, being satis fied with the explanations of Earl GRANVILLE, had instructed its Minister in London to discontinue all negotiation on the subject. It is not true that the Austrian Government has sent a new n o t e t o th e Swiss Confederation. Th e Cabinet o f Vi enna d oes no t i n tend to prot es t aga i nst the right of asylum which Switaerland accords to the political refugees, it only declares against the abuse of this right. It respects the principle of neutrality i_guaranteed to the Swiss Confederation. HOLLAND: The PRESIDENT ;fthe French Republic has con• ferred the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour upon the King of the NETHERLANDS. Accounts from India state that the Court of Jeddo (Japan), in the event of an expected attack from the United Statee, has claimed the assistance of Holland, by virtue of ancient treaties still in force. The Netherlands journals are of opinion that, in the event of such an attack, it would be bett er f or the Netherl an ds t o act the part of mediator th an t h at of ally.

In its sitting of the 231, the Senate of Turin passed the Bill for an electric telegraph connecting Turin, Genoa Alessandria, Casale, Vercelli, and No vara, which Bill had already been adopted by the Elective Chamber. The Bill on the modifications to be introduced in the laws on the press, as far as re gards foreign p o tentates, was then takeninto conside ration. The Senators ROBERT D'AZAGLIO and AL BERTO DELLA MARMOBA both spoke against the ex treme liberty allowed to the press in Piedmont, and called for further restrictions. M. DEFORESTA, Mi nister of Grace and Justice, defended the principle of the liberty of the press, as did also the Senator SELoris, who was Minister at the time the decree on the press was iSSIIf , d by C HARLES A LBERT , an d w h o countersigned it.

GLIMPSES OF POETRY.—. A,-.. s far as truth and sim plicity are above lying and crookedness, so far is the wisdom of the heart above the cunning of the world; and it is in this wisdom of love that the poet is wise. It is to teach him this that the magic land is opened to him • that even from his childhood he is permitted to behold, to 'hear, to feel, and to commune with shapes, sounds sensations —beings of an other creation, which are beyond the perception of the multi tude. The woods to hitu are eloquent, the streams speak a sweet language, and app ea l to him as with a living voice. We know from the collected experience, each of himself, of m a ny o f his class, that the poet is such before school-time; a poet in grain not in polish only, " Poeta nascitur, non fit." From the time his intellect has passed its infancy, learned to s t a nd upright and walk; when it i s l oo sed from the bands of from the time when it fi rst goes abroad, t h e c hild is uncon sciously devising po e t ry, wea k n ess, grown out o f the swaddling-clothes o f i nact i on -- gathering from all he beholds , all he is taught—f ro thwhatever i m p re sses him, new and strange meanings; tracing vaguely at first, more decisively as he proceeds, the anal og i es of passing things and circumstances with his own being an d hi s fate.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet and steady. Sales 8,000 bales.—Railway Shares were firm. The bullion movement at the Bank of England con tinues to present features of great interest. The increase during the week to Saturday last was again very large, and the precious metal is evidently being freely deposited in exchange for notes, so that the circulation is propor tionably extended, although the balances to the credit of the Exchequer and of private parties have been much enlarged. The discounts and loans were again reduced in amount, and, as a matter of course, the unemployed notes of the Bank were considerably added to.

However, from the much more favourable complexion of accounts by the last Overland Mail from India, China, and other Eastern markets, and the intelligence from the United States, which indicated a stronger position, for a time, on the part of the holders of Cotton, and which consequently led to extensive transac tions in that article at improved rates, a very active and animated demand immediately ensued for both Cloth and Twist, causing an advance of 3d. to 4id. per piece eve ry description of B un dl e d Yarns ; an d from upon India Shirtings, and id. to id. p e r lb. up on nearly id. to id. per lb. upon Twist and Pin Cops, and at the as well as in man y cases a d vanc i ng, every other d escr iption of c l o th. t s h a e me va t l i u m e e o h f a a rd lm en o i s n t g, Since the resignation of the Ministry there has been less doing in the textile markets.

When. the testator died John Rouse was an infant, and during his minority part of the interest of the 2,000/. was applied to his maintenance, and the rest to the residuary accumulated. After coming of ago he married, and, by a deed of settlement bearing date the 22'1 of January. 1851, he settled the aecurnulated interest in the trust for his wife. The present petition was brought by trustees under this settlement, praying the Court to accumulati ons. order the payment of thes e accumulations. This to opposed by the executors of the estate oft the origi t of nal testator, William Rouse, on the ground that he beques 2,0001. did not carry interest furth er than such sums as were required for the maintenance of t he legatee during his minority, who having been discha r g ed no furtr claim remained. His HONOUR, in giving judgment, said he wa s of, opinion that the petitioners were entitled to receive the. accumulated interest in full. The rule was that a ei be quest did not carry interest to a m inor when his mn" tenance had been provided for out of another fund, but if no such provision existed then he was entitled to the interest during his minority. T he prayer of the peti! lion must therefore be granted. IN RE KING'S SETTLEMENT TRUST. His HONOUR gave judgment in this case, dismissing the petition.
