On that point we are completely in the dark, and there are few 1 data to assist us in forming a satisfactory opinion. We know that a distinct and positive pledge has been given by the PREMIER, himself respecting the " property qualification for Members.' " It needs no ghost to tell us" that the total abolition of that impolitic and unjust restriction on the privileges of constituencies has been finally determined, and that no substitute will be offered in its place. We are also aware that there will be con siderable extension of the suffrage. There may be much speculatioa as to the nature and amount of the concession. Some may suppose that the voter's qualification may be in some degree lowered ; others, that the proposition of the Hon. Member for East Surrey, on which the Ministers have already been so signally and ignominiously defeated, will be adopted. Many think, with Mr. E. BAINES, that the Parliamentary will be assimilated with the municipal franchise; while the more sanguine indulge in the fond hope that "house hold suffrage" will become the law of the land—that every man who is subject to direct taxation, or rated to the relief of the poor, will at length have the right of being heard, through his representative, on the application of that taxation. Whatever weight may be attached to these various opinions, there can at least be no doubt that the registry will be materially enlarged, and that we shall no longer find so large a proportion of political cyphers as at present. The St. Albans inquiry .snd many other significant indications show that the smaller boroughs, whether returning the nominees of the aristocratic patrons or of " the Mr. EDWARDS" of the locality, will not escape notice. There may not be a complete equali vition of the districts, but there must be a more equitable distribution of electoral power than at pre sent, so that the representation may be better propor tioned to the wealth and population of the several con stituencies. The decisive defeats and the questionable triumphs !I on the all-important subject of " the ballot"—the number of persons conn ected with the Ministry who 1 1 have advocated, and that in the most unequivocal terms, the propriety of affording some protection to the voter from the corrupt influences that have but too frequently been 1 brought into operation, lead us to hope that the Government will avoid an other confli c t w ith the Honourable Gentleman the Member for B r i s t o l an d his faithful and con s istent I supporter s , , of which the result must be dee p l y pre judicial and may possibly be fata l to them selves.On eac h an d ever y of these impor fi tnt points, then, we have something t o enable r u s to form an op i n i on respecting t h e l on g-promised ( and anxiously l oo k e d- for Reform B ill , th e first fruits ,f the abandonm en t of the " finality " which was s , ) strenuously assert e d b y th e Fi rs t Lord of the Trea st.

The letter of Mr. HARVEY abounds in useful suggestions, and insists that the country requires from the Government a wisely conceived system of laws, to be administered uprightly, " with speed without precipitation, and with economy untarnished by parsimony." As it might be expected from the pen of a man who has been more cruelly injured than any public character within our memory, Mr. HAJLVEY con tends that the benchers of the inns of court and bar risters ought to be made responsible to the law, and he points at a simple and Efficacious plan to make them s o .

TAHYarigTui HURRICANE IN THE CHANNEL..—.9TI Saturday night it blew one of the most fearful gales in the English Channel ever known. The new West India steamer Ori noco, on its passage from London to Southampton, expe rienced its full fury. The gale came on just as the Orinoco passed Dover. The sea washed over her funnels, and for three hours, although her engines were going at full speed, she was enabled to make but little way ahead. She took eight hours in running the twenty miles from the Foreland to Dungeness. Not a person on board ventured to retire to rest during the whole night. She proved a splendid sea boat, or she could not have lived out the gale. She came up Southampton water yesterday afternoon after her fierce en counter with the hurricane of the preceding night in splendid style. It is feared that there must have been a great loss of shipping and life in the English Channel. At Southampton it blew with tremendous fury the whole of Saturday night, so much so that the French mail boat from that port was un able to put to sea until yesterday evening.

This led on the part of the Government to a proposal to the company, advising them to annex to their body se veral other m em b ers to be named by the Municipa lity, in order t o s il e nce the adverse rumours in circu i .ation. The company having refused to submit to this arrangem en t, the Minister of the Interior has addressed a report to the KING, followed by a de cree published i n t h e Pi e dmontese Gazette of the 2 1 st, enacting that th e a dministration hitherto under the control of th e 6 , c o mpagnia di San Paolo , " shal l p ass entirely into the hands of a commission of twenty five persons named by the Municipality. By another decree, the Marq uis DE MONTEZEMOLO, Senator o f the 1( —ingdom is named President of the . ne w Admi nistrators. The latter have elected their vice-presi dent i -n the person of Count SICCAUDI, the . . well known author of the law abolishing all ecclesiastical privileges, which has led to the present coldness be tween Sardinia and Rome. ------ ROYAL OLYMPIC THE.

Without this bond of union, it were idle to hope for any very protracted continuance of a power so peculiarly, we may even go so far as to say, so unprecedentedly gigantic and heterogeneous. Distributed as our ter ritories are over the western, as well as over th 9 eastern hemisphere, separated as they are from earn other, here by oceans and there by continents, sur• rounded as they are on all sides by enerniei as puissant as they are envenomed and ambitious , , the possessions of England are obviously liable at all times to the danger of experiencing some tremendous effort at spoliation or encroachment. Insomuch is this necessarily the case, that it is impossible for the students in the Philosophy of History not to detect in the very evidences of our national greatness the , A "-------- Cabinet Council was held on Saturday at the Foreign.om we . re Lord --ce, Downing-street.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were estimated at 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 American and 500 Surat were taken for export, and 700 American on speculation. The market closed firmly at previous rates. The sales comprised 6,000 American, 400 Egyp tian, at 54-d. to Bd.; 1,300 Surat, at 3d. to 4d.; and 40 Sea Island, at Is. 3d to Is. per lb.—Railway Shares were very depressed at lower prices. In the West India advices, received on Saturday, the following statement is made concerning a storm expe rienced at Carthagena, Grey Town, and Chagres. The river Chagres had risen suddenly and done considerable damage:— "It appears that early last month the wind suddenly commenced blowing very heavily, and continued so for some twenty-four hours, blowing off the roofs of several houses in Chagres. The river, meanwhile, had risen full sixty feet, carrying away several dwellings at Gorgons and Cruces, also doing much mischief to the railway' stations at hose places. Two of the houses came down the river, and carried away to sea four vessels, the names of which have not reached us. The loss of property is estimated at a very large amount; but there was not supposed to be any loss of human life." The merchants of Jamaica have made a strong move ment for the putting of screw steamers on the route be tween Kingston and the Spanish Main. Great dissatis faction prevailed at the deficient accommodation provided by the Royal Mail Steam-packet Company was a strong incentive to exertion, and it was hoped the Legislature would assist by an annual grant of 4,0001 Kingston was formerly a great entrepdt for the neighbouring mar kets, but is now fast losing this. A committee of busi' ness men, appointed to report on this subject, state that, Painfully evident as this must be to all who have re flected on the subject, it may not, perhaps, be so gene rally understood that exactly in proportion as our pro' perty has been disappearing, the rival market—St. Thomas—in our neighbourhood, indebted as it has been to the partiality of the Royal Mail Steam Company for privileges and advantages of an important and exclusive nature, has been diverting from Jamaica a considerable portion of the foreign trade which she formerly possessed, and thus steadily advancing while we have been retrograding. With this painful fact evident to all, it was natural to expect that the parties so seriously injured by this unnatural exclusion from their share of the advantages derivable from the direct communication formerly granted to this island would have given expression to their feeling of disappointment, and accordingly, on re peated occasions, have remonstrances and memoriali gone from this island, not only from its public bodies, but also from the commercial and other classes assent bled in public meeting, It appears unaccountable that these well-founded representations have been treated with neglect and indifference, and have altogether failed to produce any remedy, but without stopping to renew remonstrances which have proved so unsuccessful , the moment appears to have arrived when a combined effort ought to be made by parties in this island to avail them' selves to the extent of their own resources, relying upon . their own enterprise to o bt a i n t h e ass i stance which ther e really appears no prosp ec t o f gett i ng from the . 51 e 1 " Company."

Abundant rains had fallen in the aw e ing districts, and this winter, owing to the o u tg o accommodation enjoyed and, the formation ofof and hamlets, there will not be the usual susperie l ,; o oo labour.
