(From the . 111oriany .11 order the more thoroughly to expose the down rioli baseness which actuates thiS vile• - epostate, we (rive Its leading article of yesterday, in juts-position with extracts from its columns, when it advocated " appropriation, " and deemed the retirement of the Stanley section a subject of congratulation to the re maining Ministers. • (Times, 'Dec. 23, 183 M , , • - Reports come crowding on us that Lord Melbourne begins to see that whiCh every one else in the commu nity beyond the misty verge of faction has for many months been convinced. of—=namely, that with•his pre- Sent associates, and under the cinharras4ments in which, at their dictation, he has involved himself, it is impos sible for the Noble Viscount to go on,- as nominal head of thosc.of his brofher . galley-slaves, ridiculously called " the Government." Lord Melbourne,' as it has been rumoured for this day or two, flatters himself that he will recover Lord Stanley 'and•the . .Duke of Richmond to his Ministry ; and 'in hopes of being able to realize a prospect so exhilirating, the Noble Viscount *has, ac cording to the pedantic phraseology of Office, put himself in coy munication," more than once, with the former of 'the above noblemen. He is now on a visit to the latter. If there is in such " communications" any thing more than a: mere renewal of private intercourse—if Lord Mel bourne has been seeking an accession of strength from such a wholesome quarter, irrefragable proof will be at once afforded, that the base and pesti lential alliance with O'Connell is dissolved ; that Lord Melbourne is at length recalled to a sense of what he owes to the British monarchy—of the solemn debt, in the nature of reparation which he owes to the reformed church in which he was educated—of his repeated pledges as a British Peer, and as the adviser of his Sovereign, to maintain inviolate the union with Ire land, the civil rights and vested properties, and valua ble lives of his Protestant fellow-subjects in that coun try, attached as they are, heart and soul, to Great Britain, and beset by millions of barbarous persecu tors of their religious creed, and their political and so cial existence. We certainly shall not withhold the due praise from Lord Melbourne and his colleagues, when it shall be proved to us that they really desire a re-union with Lord Stanley and the Duke of Rich mond, on the only terms on which it would be any thing but immodest madness in the present Cabinet to solicit such a junction, or .on which it would be morally possible for Lord Stanley and the Noble Duke to accede to it—viz., a total, peremptory, and final breach with O'Connell and the Romish re volutionists of Ireland, including a frank and abso lute surrender of that disastrous clause in the Irish Tithe Bill, or rather forcibly patched upon the measure, which with its appendages have mainly caused the ra pid growth of Popish insolence and outrage in Ireland, and such terrible bitternesses of feeling, bad blood, and confusion here. We repeat it emphatically, that an approximation of Lord Melbourne towards Lord Stanley and his friends, is war with O'Connell, and the scabbard flung away. It is a direct sacrifice of the appropriation, or spoliation, policy, on the very suggestion of which, in a far more mitigated form under Lord Grey's Government, Lord Stanley, the Duke of Richmond, Sir James Graham, &c., resigned. As for the vile suspicion of any possibility exist ing that Lord Stanley and his friends, who gave up office because of their disgust at the principles of alienating church property, and their terror at the prospect of seeing such a principle embodied in a bill, ' and forced upon the nation—that they would now suf fer themselVes to be bribed by a resumption of the same office, to vote for the principle and measure which they before repudiated, and to destroy those mighty interests for which they then devoted themselves, and made a burnt offering of power,—such an enormity is not worth the shadow of a thought. No—if Lord Stanley join the Ministers, he joins them like a man of honour and a patriot—to save our institutions, not to subvert them. But the rumour must be altogether unfounded. The " communication to Lord Stanley and the Duke of Richmond" is merely a " ruse," to hive the hope of an accession of strength to the waver mg ranks of the Ministerialists, who, instructed by late events, begin to look about for loopholes of escape. Lord Melbourne dares not quarrel with O'Connell ; still less does he dare to propose to Lord Stanley a political junction, while the spoliation bill and the re solution which was its foundati3n are daily proclaime as the rallying sign of his Cabinet and its principa .supporters. From the Times, May 26th, 1834. ) It is generally believed in the best informed circles, ..at the difference of opinion entertained in the Cabi et on the question of appropriation, must lead to some .annediate change in the Ministry. We have not been able to learn how the Cabinet are divided, but it seems doubtful whether there are more than two who are opposed to the appropriation. , One of them, unfor tunately, is the most distinguished orator of the Go vernment side, who, both in the cause of liberty at home and in our colonies, has shown the greatest abi-, lity. The other an useful adnzinistrateur. How they could have come to these conclusions is extraor dinary. Rumours are afloat, which we cannot-cre dit, that the example of these seceders will be followed by others, and the Government • will retire en masse. This is not credible. The vacant places, if filled up, must necessarily be occupied by men of principles at least as liberal as those who remain. The present Administration certainly has not been too liberal. Any auxiliaries from the Tory camp would make it less liberal, and entirely deprive it of the confidence of the country. Coalition A dministra tions have always been unfortunate : they want the unity of purpose indispensable to vigorous measures. Even the talents of Fox and North availed nothing. The King, we hare no doubt, notwithstanding the ru mours to the contrary, entertains the same salutary hor ror of those conspiracies of party by which not only the dignity of the Crown, but the welfare of the peo ple are sacrificed to personal ambition and selfish in terests. ( Times, May 27, 1834. ) This world has seen with amazement, that in the framing of the Irish Tithe Bill there are clauses pledging the Legislature to perpetuate the vicious ap propriation of the Irish Church revenues, as it now exists—au arrangement known to be condemned by the majority of the Cabinet, and forming part and parcel of the Bill, from no conceivable motive but a weak and most reprehensible submission of the many, in cluding rank, age, and wisdom, to the few, of the most conspicuous of whom no more can be said than that he is a prompt, spirited, and successful debater—we are bound to add, likewise, a man of unquestioned honour. Now, on a Cabinet so c omposed—on a Ca binet numerically Liberal, but worldly and effectu ally, in relation to this vital question, Conservative of a glaring abuse in the national policy, itvis not pas ,sible that the people of the United Kingdom should place the smallest reliance. (Times, May 28, 1834. ) We arc happy to say that the result which we yes terday anticipated has actually occurred: We do not mean that we rejoice that two estimable members of the Cabinet have ceased to belong to it ; but we re joice that - the majority of the Cabinet have at last assumed that firmness, the want of which has hitherto disgraced them, and have, by a persevering adherence to a just principle, brought a question of . transcendant importance to an immediate issue. As soon as this determination was peremptorily arranged, the two dis sentients, Mr. Stanley and Sir, James Graham, ex pressed their fixed determination. to resign their offices. But there was still a possibility. of impeding this ap parently easy result. The King might have hesitated to accept these resignations, and by that hesitation might have embarrassed the proceedings of the remain .... PRICE 7v. ing members of the Cabinet, and.have produced almost inceraricahle difficulties, by exciting the. alarms of the Liberal party,. or -the hopes of their enemies. The King has, we have reason to believe, acted on this oc casion .as he, has on all the critical emergencies which have occurred since his accession to the throne. Straightforward.in manner and-patriotic in design, he at once„without,vexatious circumlocution or inexpe dient delay, consented to adopt the course which his conviction pointed out as most useful to the country. He, however reludtant to part with two Ministers whose . talents and- character have won the Royal re gard, consented to accept their resignations. (Times, May 29, 1834.) . It is by no means - a ground for dissatisfaction that two more resignations of Cabinet Ministers—namely, the Duke of Richmond and - Lord RiponL—haVe fol lowed those of Mr. Stanley and'Sir': J. Graham, and . have been accepted by his Majesty .; nor would it be matter of surprise .or regret, if one, two, or three others should be added to the list, although we are not aware that, such an event is to be regarded as More than a possibility. Doubts are said to be entertained respecting the intentions of lords Melbourne and Lansdowne, the former of which noblemen has, it is everywhere allowed, gained reputation since "he came into office. as -Home Secretary, while .the latter has either surviVed:or exposed the fallacy of that which was once ascribed to him.- If the above Lords and gentlemen have been unable to comprehend the neces sity of that adjustment of Church revenues which . , of all others that have ever been proposed, must appear to most.men of common sense the most desirable, and, indeed, the most inevitable, ,of course the best step they could take for the public was to descend from a position where they had remained to no other purpose than the obstruction of the national business, and the embarrassment and punishment of their colleagues.

Mr. GODSON returned thanks. Mr. SUMMERS returned thanks. A Gentleman who returned thanks for Mr. Howlett, the unsuccessful candidate, observed, that Mr. Herrin g (one of the constituency) had charged the members of the Court of Common Council with having guttled and guzzled, and wished to know from what source that information sprung.? Mr. HERRING had gathered his information from the Pocket-book of the Members of the Court, but he found upon a closer examination that his estimate of the expenses of the guttling and guzzling of the Committees was under stated by 2,000/.—(A laugh.) To o ne Committee a sum of 7001. was annually given for land e ntertainments, and 1501. for a water-party. That Committee having found that they could not swallow more than 500/., established what they called lines, in order to dispose of the remainder of the allowance. Now, be had looked into several autho rities for the meaning of the word, without success, as to the application of the definition. He, however, upon inquiry from the members themselves, found that lines. meant no thing more than just pocketing the b a lance. —(Laughter.)

As for the lines, he declared that he never in his life applied a farthing of that money to his own use. The Wardmote was then dissolved.

'IITER LAURIE announced the Lorkin Mottram Stacey PARTIAL APPLICATION of the LAW. For some months past the Stamp Act has only had this force, that those Proprietors of Newspapers who had once obeyed it, would not be permitted to violate it, but new speculators commencing with a defiance of it, might do_ as they. pleased. ab inctepto seems to have been the rule. Established Papers could not throw off the Stamp, but new Journals of intelligence and. politics have started and gone on without it. In deed, it is now, we believe, some months since the ap pearance of a new Weekly Paper with the stamp, though formerly such Publications used to spring up like mushrooms, and die away again after a brief exis tence, profitable only to the Revenue. The cause is evident enough ; the persons who have lately started Papers have seen no sufficient reason for burdening themselves with the Stamp Duty, and others who may have been disposed to embark in Newspaper specula- tions, and who have had scruples about the violation of the law, could not venture to compete with the lower priced Unstarnped. The Revenue,• with which Go vernments have always so fine a sympathy, • has, we suppose, begun to feel the effect of this state of things, and a plan of proceeding for the correction of it has been announced, which we have read with much sur prise. We quote from the Daily Papers : " The work of apprehending venders of unstamped pub lications partaking of the character of NewspaperS, has for a long time past been confined to - a man named Deane, and one or two others in the employ of the Commissionors of Stamps, and one half of the penalties awarded by the Ma gistrates has invariably gone into the pockets of those by whom the offenders have been taken in charge. Within the last few days, however, an order has been communica cated to the police magistrates, setting forth that in future a certain number of officers attached to the various esta blishments shall on every Saturday and Sunday use their best exertions in order to put down the existing evil, by • seizing all the unstamped newspapers carried about for sale . by the itinerant traders, who on giving their names and abodes, and undertaking to ans leer the charge ou the following Monday, shall be liberated ; but their property thus taken front them, will be conveyed to the police office, and after being marked with the said vender's name and ad dress, as also that of the officer by whom he was cap tured, the. whole of the publications will be forwarded to the Stamp Office Commissioners, who, f they think proper, will cause one of their servants to attend before the magistrates to press for a conviction ; and in the event of their not doing so, the offender will be acquitted. The metropolitan police are not in any way to interfere as regards the unstamped, unless -by some violent con duct a crowd be collected, and the public peace en dangered." First, we have to ask how the agents of. police are to distinguish between legal and illegal Publications ? The itinerant venders are to be acquitted, indeed, if the servants of the Stamp-office do not attend before the Magistrates to press for a conviction ; but what is to be the remedy of the injured party, if the Papers seized be not illegal ? From the circumstance that the Com missioners of Stamps do not press the charge before the Magistrates, what is to be inferred ? It may be either that there is no ground whatever for the seizure, or that the offence is not of a nature, or of a degree, that the Commissioners would fix upon for punish ment. The party whose property has been seized will be very likely to assign the former cause, that there was no ground for the seizure, and it were a tyranny to leave him, without an immediate remedy, under this impression. What can be more monstrous than to confiscate. a man's means of livelihood, without deigning to show the offence that has incurred the forfeiture ? The party in such a case has a right to conclude that he has not violated the law, and, therefore, that he has been robbed. He may refer to the Act of Parliament, in which it is seen that certain penalties are directed .for offences against its provisions ; and as no dispensing power is given to the Commissioners of Stamps in such Act, he may unanswerably . contend that he was legally liable to those punishments or to none, and that the seizure must have been unwarrantable, if the penalties were inapplicable. In the plan of proceeding above quoted it may have been assumed throughout (if so, certainly very incon siderately) that none but illegal Publications would be seized ; but upon that supposition we have to ask where the Stamp-office finds its dispensing power — where it is authorized to punish some offences against_ the law, and to extend indulgence to others ? Let us know where such an authority is found, and we will produce abundant reason for immediately abrogating it. It is evident, indeed, that such a power might be turned to the worst sort of censorship of the Press that has ever yet had existence. If the Stamp-office may, at its discretion,. punish or tolerate unstamped Publications, it may grant impunity to those of one political cha racter, and destroy all the others. Nay, more, it might by the advantages given to the unstamped. it chose to favour, almost extinguish the stamped Press of oppo site politics. It is not enough to say that the power in these times is not likely to be carried to such a pitch of abuse ; as it is a power which obviously might be so abused, it should not be permitted to exist. . The blessing of a people under a well-constituted Govern ment does not consist merely in present safety, but in security. We have to do with adversaries cap able of daring attempts, and it is well to limit powers that would be dangerous in the hands of dangerous men. But we need not have recourse to any extreme case in order to illustrate the unfitness of allowingto the Stamp Office a dispensing power—a power of enforc ing the law or not, at discretion—or according to favour or prejudice—which the most daring tyrant in the corrupt Parliament of former days, would not have ventured to propose. The injustice and partiality to which this power may serve, must be obvious, and as well, or better, at once might the Commissioners be authorized to require, or dispense with . Stamps, accord ing to their judgment or their pleasure. An impunity is the worst mode of indulgence, and it would be far wiser to give authority to levy a tax on some, and not on others, than to leave fiscal offences to be punished in some cases, and overlooked in others. Law should be a certain rule applying to certain acts, and the -...r 0 . i'dfst.injustice is introduced under that mockery of law, 4 whiCii, for the same offences, has sometimes an appli cation, sometimes an arbitrary suspension. It may be' said that the seizure and forfeiture, of the papers is a punishment in itself. It may be so in some cases, and not in others. It may he a pudishment in cases of doubtful offence, or of no offence ; and it may not have the effect of punishment' in the instance of a flourishing contra band publicat . .-;on circulated by skilful agents. Such a concern may a:TOd the loss occasioned by a few seizures. The we...'kest and least able to provide rcon trivances for escape NN - ould suffer most. But the main question is, what right .the Stamp Office has to dis pense with the if the offence be not clear, Nvilil ,' right has it to make penalties iic tise ofTcnce b e ch ar ; aid the Seizure ? . '. No doubt the Government feel .tile. difficulty of strictly enforcing the law arainot tt)s Unstamped Ilress ; but having refused to abolish the odious im posts, it is bound to exact them from' all alike, and it cannot be permitted to make exceptiono where the Act by which it abides has . contemplated nois'e• If arguments of . wisdom will not suffiCo to procure a the abrogation of bad law, the next best Course is to allow of no tampering,.but to insist on the stra:ct appli cation, which breaks' it down by it own • Ylco. -- - . Examiner: , . . SLAVE - COMPENSATION. Wednesday Evening. Some of the claimants bn the slave compensation who feel aggrieved on account of the dilatory manner in. which their claims are- met, .have addressed letters on the subject, it is said, not only to the Commissioners, but also to Mr. Spring Rice, in strong terms of remonstrance. The men of business in the City who es :gents, , holding numer ous powers of attorney, take the lc:aeon:this occasion, are too conversant with the arrangements Islaiir passing under their obserVation, by which affairs of a much more complex nature are cnnclucteal,. not to . feel. highly indignant at the different system which they 'perceive, to be in operation at the SlaVe - Cbmpensatien4.‘lFTC - 67 — One of the 'arguments against the-existing slow process is of a nature, we should think peculiarly calculated to male an impiesSion - tipOn Mr. 'Spring Rice, because it goes to prove that, independently Of the inconvenience to . 4he claimants, the country will incur a very heavy charge for interest., by the delay in making the payments to the parties entitled to the anoney. He has already brought himself into a situation of unexampled difficulty by his manner of making the loan, which has subjected the country to the payment oF interest on the large proportion of it not yet wanted, and ,as the claimants are also 'entitled to interest for every day that the adjudica tion of their claims is deferred, here is so mach additional payment to make beyond the capital of.his loan. The end less employment for the clerks which must arise from cal culating so many complicated interest accounts is another consequence of the delay. These are the inconveniences to the Government, but those to .which the claimants are exposed furnish still more Cogent reasons for despatch, and a better arranged system of payment. Some of the agents; for example, hold per haps 100 or 200 claims, variously numbered, and there, fore coming forward so irregularly for adjudication, upotr the present plan, that as many attendances as they hold powers of attorney may be required before they have gone through their lists. They may also, by the delay, and the mortality which is .common in a West Indian climate, suddenly find their powers annulled by the death of the parties who issued them. No prudent house can in such case make advances on the credit of the claims in trusted to them. It should be observed that the undisputed claims, to which alone the remonstrances refer, are extracted from the local records and returns of the islands from which they come ; they exhibit the exact amount payable to each claimant, and a copy of such record is transmitted to the Commissioners. - Being unopposed, and the parties iden tified, there would appear to be little difference between the situation of the claimant and that of the stockholder who has an entry in the Bank books. The London bankers hold numerous powers of attorney for parties in the coun try, as the merchants do for claimants on the slave com pensation fund, and instances have been known of one banker receiving dividends in one day under 1,000 powers of attorney or more, without the least hurry or confusion. On a scale not so - great as -this, but still very important, and despatched with admirable order and expedition, are the payments of dividends by the East India Company,the insurance-offices, and those houses who undertake the ma nagement of foreign loans, where models could be found for the transactions with the claimants on the Slave Com pensation Fund. The speedy despatch of the unopposed claims would leave the Commissioners at liberty to attend to those which are litigated and opposed, in regard to which they may feel perfectly secure of employment for many years, to . come, however favourable - the circumstances under which they arc investigated.—Tintes. Of all the Associations th it were ever formed in Ireland, numerous as they have been, assuming many shapes, and bearing various names, there never was one 60 well calculated to insure peace and prosperity to the coun try as that now in course of formation, under the title. of -e -" The Refinln Association c f Ireland." It is intended that the operations of this Society shall be confined solely to tine Registries, by which, without the excitement of continued agitation, means, will be given not only for the expression of public opinion, but for securicg to that opinion its due in fluence in the United Legislature of the Empire. It has - long been desirable to establish a union between the two sec tions of the Reformers of Ireland—to combine the less ac tive men of property, intelligence, high rank and influence, with those whose keener-perception of excited to more energetic means of seeking redress. The. Reform Associa tion promises this happy combination ; it already embraces many names of the most extensive landed gentry, whose stake in the country is too great to admit a doubt of their since rity and purity of motive, in any steps which they may take to secure a redress of grievances. The effects of this organization will not display themselves in violent harangues, but in concentrating, through the medium of the elective franchise, such an expression of public feeling in the House of Commons as must overpower the faction which has so long, and too successfully, arrayed itself against the Re forms most imperatively demanded by the exigencies of the country. The immediate effect of this Association will be to establish a mutpl confidence between the people and their landlords, in itself a certain meart of restoring tran quillity. The factionists are already appalled at the powers about to be arrayed . against them. A new and better prospect is now .opened to Ireland, and most cordially do we congratulate her friends on the co-operation of the libe ral classes, for purposes of general utility, by means that the most ardent stickler for privilege must admit to be most legitimate and constitutional. We trust in future to see Reformers of every degree present such a serried phalanx to their enemies in every part Of the kingdom, as must prove impregnable to the assaults, which, from want of co-opera tion and activity, have too often prevailed over the popular cause, of which the recent elections are lamentable instances. —Morning Advertiser.
