[PRICE SD. naval armaments—sums of money which, upon his own showing, no nation is justified in so expending, when they can be more wisely applied to commerce and manufacture. Could he deny this state of things, his arguments would be plausible. But acknowledging these, how is it that so shrewd a man did not at once perceive that the present proceedings of France afford the most complete contradiction to his assumptions? The same arguments which he uses to show the utter improbability, if not the very impossibility of an invasion by France, would also disprove the actual ex istence of these preparations. Mr. Cobden dwelt much upon the fact of France being an industrial country, and on the necessity of peace for success in its various manufactures. Invasion was unprofitable; he would therefore infer impos sible. But are not those naval preparations, the enormous works at Cherbourg, and Brest, and Toulon unprofitable in Mr. Cobden's sense? Would not the money now expended on them be more wisely and profitably employed in improving the resources and developing the industry of the country? If, therefore, in these matters, where the prospect of advantage is more distant and more uncertain, that nation has not been guided by those ideas of commercial and mercantile advantages which Mr. Cob den thinks irresistible, and which render the very idea of invasion ridiculous; why should they be guided by them in the event of a war? S o wea k an argu ment, one ad mitting of such easy refutation, and yet forming the staple commodity in the mouths of the Manchester men and the extreme opponents of the Ministry, gives a plausibility to the sarcasm thrown out against them by the Secretary at War—that Hon. Members had expected to find in the measure laid before the House some details which could be popularly attacked, either on the ground of expenditure or the unpalatableness of its provisions to the tastes and habits of the people. Happily, however, to the nation at large (unhappily it may have been to this section of the House), no such cause of offence could be found—for none such exists. The old form of the ballot is to be superseded by voluntary enlistment; and, as an encourage.. ment to serve, it is proposed to offer a bounty to men join ing the service, not exceeding 3L, to le paid tkt once, or_ la__ -monthly instalments. The length 'of se r vice extends over a period of five years ; but the time for drill in each year is not to extend beyond twenty-one days. The opinions of the first military authorities in the kingdom are sufficient to satisfy any 'doubts which may exist as to the adequacy of this period for efficient drilling and training. 'The great object of the Bill is to render it as little obnoxious as pos sible to the people; and it must be remembered that a saving of time in this respect is not only a saving of labour and trouble to the volunteer, but a considerable saving also of expenditure to the nation. A right, however, is reserved t• the Crown, in cases of emergency, to extend this period of three to seven weeks, or reduce it to three days. The age at which the volunteers will be capable of serving varies from 18 to 35. The result of this will be to render easy the employment of substitutes, should the ballot be resorted to. It is proposed to raise the entire efficient force to 80,000, of which 50,000 are to be called out the first year, and 30,000 the next; thus varying the time of service, in order that a nucleus may always be preserved of men already trained and disciplined. Every district in the country will furnish its proper con tingent, and the limits of these districts will be fixed by the Registrar-General. On the average of five years the ex pense will be 250,0001. per annum; but in the first year not less than 400,0001. will be required, in consequence of the cost of arms and equipments. Mr. Cobden and Mr. Bright will make a hustings question of it. Let them make their vaunting good, and we shall be the first to thank them, No. CXCVI. THE EPSOM SPRING MEETING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—The meeting on the Cockney-loved Downs of Epsom stands for decision on Thursday next, and bids fair, from present appearances, to be the best of the kind that has yet been celebrated. The sport commences at one o'clock, with the Epsom Trial Stakes of 5 soya. each, with 50 added ; three yrs old ast 121 b ; four, Bst 71b ; over the mile course. This stake closes to-night at six o'clock, and the nominations will have to be made to Mr. Dorling at Epsom. I shall give my opinion on it to-morrow. The second race will be run at a quarter before two, and is the City and Suburban Handicap of 15 sovs. each, 10 ft, &c., with 150 added; over the last mile and a quarter of the Derby course. lam not at all positive at the present time of the fields for any of the races, consequently shall give a list of the nags under moving orders in the Third Edition of The Sun of this evening, should my ac counts come to hand, otherwise it will appear in to-morrow's paper. The field for this stake, I believe, will consist of the following :—Prime Minister, Thornhill, Merry Peal, Kilmeney, Edward of York, Diligence, Mary Ann, The Brahmin, Sir Charles Napier, Greengage, Cytherea filly, Lady Isabel, Flounce, Butterfly, and perhaps Surprise. The race, I may briefly state, will, in all probability, be contested severely by the Minister, Edward of York, Greengage, Flounce, and Butterfly; I say nothing about Surprise, be cause considerable doubt surrounds his starting. Should he go, however, his chance is first rate, and there seems but very diminutive hopes of anything beating him; but as his non-starting seems stronger than his starting, I must look somewhere else for the winner, which it is not at all impos sible I may find in Mr. Greville's GREENGAGE or EDWARD or YORK; Butterfly, Flounce, and Sir Charles Napier being close up. The third race on the card will be run off at half-past two, and is the Two years old Stakes of 10 soya. each, with 25 added; colts, Bst 61b; and fillies,Bst 41b ;, half a mile. Tbs field -win p tu tuslAy yuiURIA of the mater to aracunous, A nx iety, Margellina filly, Blonde, Gold : Doat, John - Bull, vciuientation, Deerhound, Pantomime, Sextus, Red Tape filly, Estelle filly, King David, and one of Mr. Payne's. The race, I imagine, will rest entirely with the Sister to Ira cundus, Margellina filly, Pantomime, Estelle filly, and Mr. Payne's Starter; and that the final struggle will show the ESTELLE FILINT, SISTER TO IRACUNDLIS, and PANTOMIME, in the first, second, and third places. The fourth race will be for the Great Metropolitan Stakes, and will come off as near half-past three as possible, on the two-miles and a quarter circumbendibus course. As near as I can judge this morning, the field will be comprised in the following :—Elthiron, The Ban, Miss Ann, Backbiter, Offici ous, Calmar, Kick-up-the-Dust, Hungerford, John of Ber wick, Achyranthes, Candlewick, Ischia, Sally Warfoot colt (d), Joe Miller, Snowdrop, Ethelwolf, Captain Flash, Kate, Stilton, and Snarry. This field may be slightly altered, but such accounts as I have received lead me to infer that it is, with perhaps one or two exceptions, about the thing. Elthiron, The Ban, and Miss Ann, are in my opinion effectually settled by the weight, and their chances held particularly safe by Backbiter, at Bst 31b. Officious, a five yrs old, at 7st 31b, and moreover a flyer in days of yore, looks anything but dispicable for this event; she shall offi ciate as my forlorn hope or cockboat on the present occasion, in case my selection should be defeated. Calmar, at 31b less than the last-named, is of emrse out of therace. Kick-up-the- Dust, a filly that can go the distance and live a respectable pace, is the most dangerous looking animal figuring in the middle division. Her performances have always been re spectable, and I have no reason on this occasion to think that it will be otherwise. Hungerford's chance is not a bad one, but the distance is a shade too far for him. John of Ber wiek and Achyranthes;will run forward, but to my thinking not quite forward enough to win. Candlewick, at a very favourable weight, would look well if the course was heavy or the pace slow, but her want of speed will on this occasion operate as an effectual bar to her winning. Ischia has been leniently treated by the handicapper, but still has little chance of turning up a good thing. The Sally Warfoot colt is a fine slashing ahimal, , and if it had not been for adverse rumours concerning his condition , Scc., I should have been inclined to place him in the front flight. Joe Miller, well-bred, in good form, and much fan cied by his owner, will cut a respectable figure in the race; but this son of witticism will not carry my cash. Snowdrop is no go. Ethelwolf will persevere to the end. Captain Flash will take some beating and will finish forward. Kate will attain a place ; Stilton be about the bull's-eye ; and Snarry, if he runs, will be just inside the distance when the race is won. To draw my remarks to a conclusion, I believe Backbiter to be the best of the heavies, Officious, and Kick up-the-Dust of the mediums, and Kate and Stilton of the feathery division. One of this quintetto lam tolerably wel' convinced will be the winner, and I should place them thus : STILTON OR KICK-UP-THE-DUST J "• OFFICIOUS ... ••• KATE ... •..

TIMES.—Mr. Walpole's Militia Bill is studiously designed to escape the conflict of opinions that proved fatal to its predecessor, and it bears evident marks of the discussion which that casualty has provoked. It is altogether another measure. The odiousness and unfairness of the ballot, and the uncertain operation of the system of substitutes, are to be avoided, if it be possible, by enlistment, with the stimulus of a sufficient bounty. We need not take any credit to our selves for having pointed out this only practicable alterna tive, for really there was no longer any doubt in the matter, and Lord John Russell had all but given up the, plan of con scription. If the militia are really to be placed at the ser vice of the State, and to be made " worth their salt:: it would be a great hardship to impose such troublesome duties on any one against his consent, and to compel one man 'to be at the beck and call of the State, to wear a uniform, and to be drilled with chance companions, in order that 'fly other men might engage in the ordinary business of life with greater security, and sleep a little sounder in their beds. They who suffer the inconvenience and possible danger ought to have some adequate compensation ; and they who receive protection should not object to pay for it. As it is proposed to raise no more than 80,000 men, 50,000 this year and 30,000 next, and as a bounty of about 41. is offered to each recruit, we are encouraged to hope that it will not be found necessary to resort to the ballot, which the Govern-. t still contemplates as a poisible necessity. For the two ,000 men ere only about one in a hundred male adults, and that proportion it is expected will be forthcoming for a three weeks' training once a year, with the possibility of a little real service in case of invasion. In that event, while all the male population will have to turn out to fight, however unprepared, the militia will at least have had some • preissksasss fish. dire emergency. The measure was re ceived with a marvellous amount of civility. Lord merston gave it his decided approbation, and Lord John Russell, with a tender recollection of the usage his own Bill had received, felt it would be most unjustifiable to offer any obstacle to the introduc tion of the Bill. The only decided opponents who announced themselves were Mr. Hume and the Manchester party, who, from an equal horror of war and expense, refused to acknowledge the necessity of any such measure. Whether the shores of this country are likely to be invaded in the lifetime of the present generation is a ques tion on which men must differ, but there really cannot be any difference of opinion as to the fact that whether we shall be invaded or not depends at this moment on the will of one man. It is not agreeable to Englishmen, nor is it their habit, to depend on the will of one man, to tremble when he frowns, to breathe freely when he smiles, and to trust his assurances. The French dictator has only to give the word, and an army is let slip against us that wants neither the skill, the courage, the numbers, nor the will to do us the most serious mischief. It is true that military authorities are not agreed as to the possibility of an actual invasion, and are only agreed, all but unanimously, that no invasion would ever b© successful; but if there be the barest chance in the world of 100,000 men being thrown on our shores, it would not be comfortable to have against those men, armed and trained as they are, no more than 25,000 soldiers whom we might perhaps with plenty of warning be able to scrape together. To train one man in a hundred at the ex pense of 250,000/. a year for five years does not seem a very troublesome or costly precaution to adopt against a danger that certainly is within the range of possibility. When Mr. Cobden has no better security to offer than his private opinion that French officers are too much of gentlemen to obey their President if he commands them to invade this country without a good reason, we certainly feel that so slender and ridiculous a ground of confidence only betrays the very grave nature of the possibilities that we are bound to provide against. As to the merits of the new measure, after the fate of Lord John Russell's, and the very strong difference of opinion it has elicited, it would be premature to speak with confidence. The truth is a Militia Bill must be an experi ment. It is the gauge of many conditions that cannot be otherwise easily estimated. How far have our insular position, our peaceful state, and our industrious habits eradicated the taste for war, or even inspired a positive horror of it? What proportion of men is there in the country to whom a bounty of 41. or 5/.,: or half-a-crown a month for five years, besides payment of expenses, is likely to have much attraction ? Does employment abound to such an extent as to leave none at leisure even for three weeks soldiering? The ordinary computation is, we believe, that there are at least eight weeks in the year during which farmers can easily dispense with the services of their labourers; but whether agricultural labourers are the class to which we are to look chiefly for our national defenders, is one of the questions for which we must abide the experiment of the measure before us. When the whole ground has yet to be explored, the best course is to try a measure that shall offer the least violence to feelings and that may admit most easily of amendment. These con ditions are fulfilled in a scheme which proposes to raise by bounty no more than 80,000 men, to train them no more than twenty-one days, and to leave a longer training, and an appeal to the conscription. to the discretion of the Government. In farther protof of the mo aest character or this .15111, we may mention that is very slightly, we believe, from one drawn up by Sir James Graham and Mr. Sidney Herbert in 1845. As often hap pens, however, the most moderate and diffident course seems to have cut the knot of a real difficulty. That difficulty consists in the facts that we have increased our regular army to the utmost limit of British forbearance—that we are too free a people to submit to conscription—and that our labour ing claws are not of a military turn. The solution of these difficulties rests on the hope that the posi tion of the volunteer militiaman in Mr. Wal pole's Bill will not seem so onerous, so dangerous, so thankless, so insulated from the rest of " the community, as that of the regular soldier. But, as we have said, the ground being to a great extent unknown, the measure must needs be experimental. Lord John Russell has no great opinion of it. He thinks that the bounty will prove no great inducement, and that the ballot will be found neces sary. He expects that the measure will be tedious in its operation, at all events not prompt enough for the possible emergency. Yet, as an experiment there must be, and as almost any description of militia is preferable to a large in crease in the regular army, he is disposed to give a candid consideration to this plan, particularly as he recognizes in it some of the features which led to the defeat of his own mea sure at the hands of Lord Palmerston. To all appearances, the Bill will be discussed with all convenient dispatch, so as not to protract the session, its more serious defects being left for trial to show, and for the next session to correct. CHRONICLE.—The Government plan for the embodi ment of the militia, as explained last night by Mr. Walpole, has for its object to raise a force of 80,01:0 men, between the ages of eighteen and thirty-five-50,000 the first year, and 30,000 the next—the term of service being live years. The enlistment is to be voluntary, encouraged by a bounty of 31. or 41. penman, or by a monthly retaining fee of 2s. or 2s, 6d. ; and the period of training will be twenty-one days, with a power of extension or diminution if necessary. The existing law is to regulate the embodiment of the force for actual ser vice; and if any district fails to make up its quota of vo lunteers, recourse is to be had to the system of ballot. The expense of the new armament is estimated at an ag re gate sum of about 1,200,0001. for the entire five years. In the general outline of the scheme, so far as it has yet been developed, there is much that entitles it to support. The great desideratum is the formation of an efficient army of reserve ; and, provided object be accomplished, it appears to us that the question of voluntary or compulsory enlistment is entirely secondary. So far as it goes, compulsory service is no doubt an evil, though , as compared with the safety of the country, its inconveniences are as nothing. If voluntary enlistment can be made to supply its place, it clearly ought to bepre ferred ; and notwit hstandin g Lord John Russell's doubts if upon the subject , we are ver y much mistakena long peace has so far damped t he warlike spirit of the country as to have rendered the volunteer system impracticable. It may serve to facilitate the d iscussion of the subject if we briefly state what we consider to be the true end in view in forming . such a force. Its obje cts a pp ear to us to be quite intdeeer pendent of, and different from. those of the , v end com p a nies proposed by Sir Charles Napier, and we do not see why the two systems should not sub sist together. Sir Charle's rifle corps would be en rolled, not for the ordinary purposes of warfare but with the specia l ob j ect of harassing an hedges, invading ' a rmy in its passage t hrou g h the labyrinth of dit c hes, and woods which covers our southern counties. What we more immediately want is a reserve force capable of largely increasing our regular army in time of war, on t w he e shortest notice. Let objectors say what they_ please, t could not, at this moment, with our utmost . efforts, collect an army of 50,000 regular troops at one point, except . at the cost of leaving Portsmouth, Plymouth and Woolwich un defended, and committing to the police i r h e e whole charge o a the peace and safety o f Ireland. V who a body of men capable of undertaking the ordinary dnties of the army, and of reinforcing it in case of need— . a body fitted to occupy entrenched posts, to defend garrisons, to form patrols, and, above all, to supply by degrees the waste of war amongst our regular troops. Such a force as this cannot be extemporised. It is' said, indeed, that we can at any time guard , ourse l v es against a razzia, whilst we could organise an overwhelming resistance to . a deliberate invasion. It may be so, but both of these . . objects might be attained far more certainly by our providing ourselves be- We should forehand with an organization for the purpose. most gladly witness the formation of volunteer corps, who might makean excellent irregular forc e ; but nothing short 1311 liter s as - of the discipline which arises from the habit of of Tt b or di na tion could give us a body of men capable serving regu lar troops. "It was n either the volunteers nor the con scripts that saved the country in 1793," said Npoleon—" it was the 18 0 , 000 old soldiers of the monarchy." We have already a limited number of excellent regular troops ; tnd he G o vernment have but to speak, and they may comma almost any amount of irregulars, in the shape of volunteer riftemen ; and the proposed measure will, if carried, give us a n army of reserve which would possess, at any rate, such a rudim en t ar y knowledge of milita r y disci p line as would soon enable it to acquire, in actual service, a very formidable de gree of efficiency. H ERALD,_ -Ministers have not much to dread from their opponents, if we are to judge from the kind of opposition offered to the motion proposed last night by Mr. Walpole, for consolidating and amending the laws in regard to the militia. First and nsost formidable of these antagonists was Mw Cob den, the sinewy Ajax of the Manchester school. who was manifestly put forward by his party, in the hopes of ham pering the Government, or gaining a little popularity for the Opposition. The attempt signally failed. Air. Cobden was weak and illogical ; his topics of debate badly chosen and ill arranged ; no extraordinary censure, perhaps in the judg ment of some, and none at all in that of his Manchester sup porters, with whom plain home-spun, however coarse, is as web of the finest texture, and rude strength has more charms than athletic elegance. Mr. Cobden's arguments, how c arried with them their own refutation—the bane bad its ow n antidote.

Every Emigrant should therefore provide himself with an Outfit at E. MOSES and SON'S, every article being selected with the care and experience of the largest Outfitters in the Universe. On an Outfit rendered precious to the Emigrant by twofold claims —English make and daily use—a value is put far above the price paid for it at E. MOSES and SON'S, their charges being so ex tremely low for the valuable goods comprising their unequalled Outfits. The Emigrant, looking at these when in his hut or house in far distant lands, will wisely think how fortunate he had not neglected to take out his Outfit from E. MOSES and SON'S. What could he have done without it, and how trifling their charge to what he must have paid elsewhere? What a variety of valuable services it had rendered him, by becoming a constant accession to his daily com• forts, and how entirely impossible would it be in many places to ob tain any goods like those comprised in the Outfits from E.

THE' COUNT The following is the official corn, &c., received in the poi Essex, from the 22d March, both inclusive NAVAL INTELLIGENCE• PLYMOUTH, MARCH 29.--Tog MISSING} ADMIRALTY STEAMER..—Her Majesty's screw steam troop-ship Vulcan, Master-Commander John Penn, which was left by the Simoom on Wednesday last, 10, A.m., twelve miles south west of Scilly, arrived at Plymouth late last night. Her outward dates are—Portsmouth, Oct. 3 ; Cork, Oct. 12 ; Sierra Leone, Nov. 8; and Simon's Bay, Dec. 12. She left Simon's Bay Dec. 15, reached the Buffalo Mouth on the 16th, landed her troops on the 17th, sailed therefrom on the 18th, and returned to Simon's Bay on the 21st of Dec. On her homeward voyage she sailed from Simon's Bay on the 31st of Dec., arrived at Table Bay on the Ist of Jan., and took her departure for England on the 3d of January, touched at St. Helena on the 15th, and reached the Island of Ascension on the 23d. She has returned Ordnance stores, guns, be., from the Cape, and condemned naval stores from Ascension. The Vulcan conveyed the Lord Bishop of Cape Town from Table Bay to St. Helena. She brings, as passengers from the Cape, Captain, now Major Monkland, 74th Highlanders, whese leg was injured in an attack upon the Kafirs ; Lieute nant Palmer, of the 12th, and family, and Mr. Cassidy, who has returned home to join the 21st Royal Northumberland Fusiliers; Dr. Dick, of the 12th, and Captain Fortescue. From St. Helena, Mr. Brownell; Ensign Cape, of the Gold Coast Corps. From Ascension, Commander Corbett, late gunnery lieutenant of the Penelope, who was wounded in nine places in the attack on Lagos; Lieutenant F. Probyn, Penelope, on sick leave; Lieutenant Williams, Royal Marine Artillery, Penelope ; Lieutenant Noot, Royal Marines, Tor toise; Dr. Squire, Tortoise, in charge of invalids; Mr. G. Bowen, midshipman, Royalist; Mr. Grant, midshipman, Hastings; Mn Rainbott, second-master, Rhadamanthus; and invalids from the African squadron. It would seem that the engines and machinery of the un fortunate Vulcan have scarcely ever been in proper condi tion. The engines were constructed by Rennie, and have been in use, more or less, since the 23d of January, 1851; the collective horse power is 435, and they are of the de scription known as " horizontal," with direct action to the screw. During the passage out, on the 9th of November, the brass was observed working through the stuffing box in the stern, on account of the friction of the engines, and the revolutions were reduced from six to four per minute. Subsequently the plummer block brass was observed to wear considerably, which caused a jump upon the engines. On other occasions the engineers appeared to have expe rienced cons id era bl e t rou bl e in their vain efforts to get the engines into good working order. The propeller shaft was sent ashore at Si mon ' s Bay. During the passage home, on the 16 th of January, after steaming 13 ho urs th e en gines were stopped in consequence of a fa voura bl e breeze hav i ng s p ru ng up. Th e nex t day (the 17th, awhenncrank the was en g cracked n r a e e n a k e e n d orwere split,cleaningan d t this sma chinery,rcuin thei as out of gear, they discovered that the foremost in ) stance havin g b e en duly reported to the commanding officer, the engine s h ave never been tr i e d s i nce . The greate r p art of her coa l was discharged at A sce nsion. c whi c h w The passage of the Vulcan from that island to England is not one which will reflect much honour on the steam navy of Great Britain. The Vulcan, it appears, cannot get to windward. About a month since she was 606 miles off, and to cover that distance she has had to beat upwards of 2,700 miles. It is reported that her commanding officer is about to publish an account of this remarkable voyage. When spoken by the Simoom had provisions had been so much reduced that all hands were on short allowance. The Vulcan is called the sister of the Simoom; her en gine defect, off St. Helena, is of the same character as that which occured on board the Megrera. In consequence , we suppose of her very unweatherly capabilities, the Vulcan, instead of being moored inside the breakwater, has dropped her anchor off Cawsand-bay, near Mount Edgecumbe — a most unfavourable position in case of strong winds from the south-east. She will probably be towed to the eastward by a paddle steamer. rOLlsAcqa.tro 1). 1 .9rra..-Tlio rlut9 oteura..yos4 Lift- 4-2 t k-1-1 1 4- C 4 ' .-- "--- -1 9 ) 2 to I`sgst Lord Ribblesdale's Lapidist / The only bets that came to our knowledge were 1,000 to 200 agst Hobble Noble, 800 to 50 agst Alfred the Great, and 400 to 25 agst Orelio.

On Monday afternoon, March 29th, these two gentlemen . met a large body of the Liberal electors at the Star Hotel, to enunciate their political creed, and to commence an acquaintance with the constituency, which it is hoped will not easily be terminated. J. W. SMELLY, Esq , was called to the chair. He craved 'their kind indulgence while he endeavoured to put before them the business of the meeting. A requisition, numerously signed, had been entrusted to Mr. Jackson and himself for presentation to Admiral Sir Charles Napier and Mr. ( M H `C ea u r l , h lag e b a. , r M.P., to whom they must a l l be grateful for having a ccepte d their invitation to come forward to rescue the b orou h from their degraded position.— which) himbebirth, and in the last whichh e disrespectfully of the tow n hoped to end his days, but it was their disgrace that not only had they been unrepresented, but they had been misrepresented ; and if their memories were so short as to forget it a call upon their pockets ere long would bring back the remembrance, and they would then find that the Public Health Act was no party cry. It was for no party purposes that Mr. G. D. se P ai a yt l h, m ai ettr, was M ae st r B . a. nNuuvnrhrdoaoutuegiaier,dLafona Lord dt Derbyt others; hati f r e e ar theyi resisted d a as t ad h wh e eanr e en pplication nity they had the will t o re - enact those l aws might wh ots i p c p h or e t aL a -- tracted from the poor man a large tax upon his food. To such a course the gentlemen present were osed. And they would probably remember th a t Sir Edm und Lawn's father was the man who declared in the House of Commons that barley-bread was good enough for the Door man ; and when they saw the son of suc h a- man joined in unholy alliance with the man who kicked his father out of the borough, they had a right to recollect why he had ceased to be their member. As to Mr. Rum bold, perhaps, the less they said the soonest mended. He would not undertake to go through the numerous reasons why, on account of his short comings and false doi ngs, he Inge, ne was unworthy to represent them. Sir C. NAPLES was received with loud greetings. lie had come among them in compliance with a requisition nume rously and very respectably signed, and he was perfectly ready to hoist the flag of free trade in the borough of Yarmouth, if he met with that support to which, as Free-traders, they laid claim. He attributed the fall of Lord John Russell% Ministry, mainly made up of his own relations, not to - the 'Militia Bil., but entirely to its own internal weakness,-... the gross mismanagement of the colonies under Earl Grey, through whose means mainly the Kafir war was brought about, a war that would cost the country as mach as would probably equal the savings effected in revenue last year—the indiscreet dismission of Lord Palmerston, who was the right hand of the Ministry. He deprecated Lord John's peddling measure of reform upon which he had intended to appeal to the country, and he hoped never to see Lord John back again with the same Ministry. He declared himself in favour of a repeal of the corn-laws ; expressed his conviction that the question of protection was one that concerned the landlord and not the tenant, and quoted several instances in proof that with increased care and improved science agricul ture would not fail to improve. If estates in this country were encumbered by the jointures of dowagers, or the por tions of younger ehildren, so that the proprietors could not hold them the sooner they passed an Encumbered Estates Bill the better, for then they would get into the hands of men who would cultivate them as they ought. With regard to the navigation-laws,l he believed they were repealed too suddenly; he did not think Mr. Labouchere had obtained sufficient concessions from foreign powers, but their repeal had passed, and Lord Derby had confirmed them ; so that all they could do was to search for means to remedy the evils they complained of and benefit the shipping. The Crown had reserved to it the right to reverse those laws to any na tion who did not give back the same advantages. In his opinion it was the duty, and ought to be the inclination, of their representatives to do everything in their power to pro mote the shipping interests of this country, and if other nations did not reciprocate they would be right to call on the Privy Council to re-impose the restrictions. The safety of the nation demanded that the commerce of this county should be preserved. With regard to reform, Lord John Russell had brought forward his measure and it was scouted ; Mr. Hume, when he brought his measure for ward, got only 89 votes. Now he went pretty nearly the length of Mr. Hume, but he was an advocate for making tits extension of the suffrage, vote by ballot, and triennial Par liaments separate questions.! He was for the equalisation of the franchise, as he could not see why a man in business voting for a 10/. occupation should, on retiring to the country upon the hard-earned savings of his business, be de prived of his vote if he happened to pay 6d. less than 50/. a year rent. He deprecated such an extension of the franchise as proposed to enlarge the pocket boroughs, of which there were 66, and of which 29 sent but one member, by adding thereto other pocket boroughs, and was favourable to the extension of that privilege, partly to such large towns as were still unrepresented. Sir Charles went at some length into the expenditure"and:naval defences of the country, and referred ,to his acts when last in Parlia ment. Yarmouth had been represented by Admiral Anson, by Sir John Jervis, and Captain Troubridge, men most de servedly esteemed ; and he hoped he might look forward to the honour of representing this independent borough. Mr. MiCueLacl, in a very effective address, disclaimed any intention to make professions he did not purpose to fulfil. He should refer them to his votes in the House of Commons, and especially to one he gave when he was among the small minority that opposed the introduction of the Public Health Act into Yarmouth, against their own representatives, because he thought every large place ought to be able to manage its own local affairs. He had supported the retailiatory clause in the Act repeal in. the navigation-laws; he was favourable to the measures Olt had been mentioned by Sir Charles Napier, and, although himself a conscientious member of the Church of England, he was a strenuous supporter of civil and religious freedom. Mr. R. liAmisiAND, jun., in moving a vote of thanks to the chair, promised to exert himself to secure the return of the Admiral and his learned colleague, and hoped they ~,,,,,ta light the,. lutt!l. with. , .* oltenapting anything-like bribery. _ ~.. „..,,, A .- „,-- : 1 --,,• The meefingrsfle - i - rot a long one, iii Me partterweLv eu hold a public meeting in the evening. AI)ELPHI THEATRE. --- A farce, unquestionably rather replete with the broadly ludicrous than inculcatory of strict morality, was played here for the first time lust evening, under the ominous title of Who Stole the Pocket-Book ? The frills de conversation rests almost entirely upon Wright, for although Bedford, Honey, and Miss Chaplin have parts assignedthem, they are comparatively insignificant. There is nothing very superb in either plot or dialogue, but the gaggeries of Wright, as Mr. Tomkins Tipthorp, are irresistible. Mr. Tipthorp picks up a pocket book at the corner of Chancery-lane, containing two hundred pounds, which he spends in millineries innumerable, for the gratification of his sweetheart, Miss Fanny Smart. But his conscience, or rather cowardice, smites him sorely, the more so when he finds that the " gentleman in brown," who he believes is the owner of the cash, is, the uncle of the afore said Fanny, and with whom he presently comes in: contact. The agony of Tomkins constitutes the substance of the farce in which all this takes place, and Wright revels in it. Who Stole the Pocket-Book? in a word, is an extravaganza not long but broad ; and loud were the roars of laughter which it occasioned. After all his grievous misgivings, which he vainly strives to drown in the rosy bowl, and grotesque blunderings between him and old Blossom, the application of a policeman causes the climax of his agony; but it turns out, after all, that the pocket-book he appropriated was one sent to himself from a friend, and dropped in the street by a careless messenger, who, discovering the loss, had proceeded to give informa tion thereof at the station-house. Thus, fortunately for Tomkins, he discovers that he has only been robbing himself, although the application to his own purposes of the found treasure seemed, whilst he believed it to be rightfully another's, a matter of no great dishonesty, and caiefly a source of discomfort, from the fear of detection. This theatre has just received a great acquisition in the engagement of Mrs. Keeley, who is announced to make he r first appearance, after several seasons' absence from h Adelphi, at Easter.
