The difference between the two great princi ples of Government, of letting the people do t;.~r themselves, and do for them, may be illustrated by the conclusions to which the Tory Journals, embracing the latter, are compelled to come. The more the functions of Government are ex tended, the greater must be its expenditure, and the larger must be the revenue it must exact from the people. In the present condition of the finances of almost• every nation, this consi deration should be all-important with statesmen, to induce them to limit the sphere of their ac tion. It testifies that they have already tres passed beyond the bounds of propriety. The Tory Herald, however, comes to an opposite conclusion. That Journal yesterday had an elaborate ar ticle on the sugar colonies, deploring the limited of sugar, and devising means, for the sake of the revenue, to i ncrease it. From.the article we might infer that the cultivation of sugar should be regulated by Government, as it regulates the number of me n in the Navy. ' It clearly made out that it was the duty of Go vernment to augment the consumption of sugar, which the To ries would not allow to be done, by di m i n i s hing the duty ; and it went to recommend that the Govern ment should take on i tself the supply of the labour market in the West Indies with labourers. Here is a specimen or two of our Contemporary's observations : It is not to be denied that the consumption of sugar is checked by the increase of the cost of production in our colonies. This check is not, however, peculiar to this country ; it is common to Europe more or less. " Those who have not seen with their own eyes," says Hum boldt, "what an immense quantity of sugar is consumed in Spanish America, even in the poorest families, must be astonished at findinn• that France requires for her use not more than three or four times as much as the island of Cuba." The fact h discloses is generally true as to the United Kingdom. The consumption of sugar is limited by the delicient supply. The supply of British colonial sugar must he increased ; fortunately it can easily be augmented, if proper measures be taken. Our Contemporary then discusses at lengths the immigration from Africa, which .he advocates, and comes to this conclusion : Without, however, now discussing this question . generally, it is clear that any emigration from Africa into the West Indies must be presided over, both in Africa ;mt in the ColonieS, by Government; it cannot be left to the guidance or direction of the planters. The plain conclusion to which the herald is driven is, that the Government here in England, must provide, and if now, at all times, tbr the due supply of labour by immigration throughout the sugar colonies. The Houses of Parliament must devise the means to send labourers to the colonies from various quarters, and those means must be carried into effect by the Executive. If there b . at any time too tew or too many la bourers-4 the consumption of sugar fall off or increase at home, if the seasons abroad be barren • or prolific, so as to make more or less labour be required, the Government which is to take on itself the task of directing and regulating Mimi - gration; will be resPousible, and bound to correct the tenvorary and Permanent evil. Might it 7 '' l ' 2.

The conclusion to which the Herald, unconscious of its absurdity, comes, let us say, in all sincerity, if not in all courtesy, is as mad as the conclusion of the un happy philosopher in Rasselas, who imagined that the government of the atmosphere was placed in his hands. What emigration agents would have to do, and what sort of actions the Government would make itself responsible for, what miuutim it must at tend to—otherwise the acts of oppression corn •nitted in its name would be multitudinous—may be inferred from the following extracts from a correspondence which appears in the Demerara papers. The Agent-General for Immigration writes to the Secretary of the Government, and, speaking of a vessel which had just brought over a cargo of seduced free blacks from Sierra Leone, says— I then read his Excellency's memorandum to the im ported negroes, naming the various estates on which it was proposed they should be advised to go ; they ap peared very much g ratified , and thanked the Governor for his kindness ; but it was evident that the head men or delegates who have returned with them had already made a different disposition in favour of the estates on which they had themselves been located. I regret that I have not been more successful in giving effect to his Excellency's intentions, as contemplated by the memorandum, in the allotment and location of these people ; but more than urge his Excellency's advice to them I could not do, and they have pleased themselves. Writing to the Agent-General, an immigra tion agent of Guiana at Sierra Leone, says— Accompanying the emigrants in the ship Superior are the six delegates who returned from Demerara, in that ship. Whilst they have been here I have given them the means of subsistence at the rate of ls. per day ; this sum was by no means adequate to their wishes. One of the men is called Thomas Cole. I have had every reason to be to much dissatisfied with his conduct ; he has appeared several times before me in a state of in toxication, and has been the source of much annoyance and complaint even from the authorities here ; owing to his misconduct I have not advanced him anything, but I have been well aware that he has had the means of sub sistence. Were I to suggest a plan to the authorities at British Guiana, it would be to send back either Tom Freeman or the head Krooman. I send Charles Walker and the head man of the liberated Africans, Charles B. Christian; it would inspire the people here with confidence, and I believe them to be intelligent, sober, and active. The emigrants I have embarked, I believe, will be found, for the greatest part, strong healthy labourers. It is true that the other ships are freighted, or about to be freighted, for the other West India colonies. From such minute communications, now it ap pears, that the Government, in taking on itself the control of a general system of immigration into the Colonies, would make itself responsible for the conduct of a great number of agents, liable to great temptations, for the sort of labourers embarked, and for their conduct; and for the due distribution of the men amongst the different estates when they arrived. 'We can conceive that the claims of rival planters would be as perpetual a source of trouble as if the Go vernment were to undertake to settle the quar rels of lovers. The description of first seducing the Africans by Kroomen, then providing for their passage, and finally, endeavouring to ap propriate them to different estates, by reading a memorandum of the Governor, entitles us to as sert that there is, in fact, a revival of the slave trade, but conducted decorously, by the Govern ment. The proposed scheme of the Herald would therefore convert the Government into a great slave trader. If such considerations have no weight with our statesmen, eager to rush in where angels would shrink back, let them look at what the ~Herald states as to the effects of their interfe rence on the consumption of the people and re venue of the Government. The taxes on sugar, raising the price, lessen the consumption. By whatever mode the agents for carrying into effect the control of Government over immigration be paid, the cost of maintaining them must raise the price of articles and limit consumption. It is not only the tax on sugar which lessens the consumption of it here, but the tax on bread, for people will buy bread before suzar. The more, therefore, that Government extends the sphere of its operation, the more it must extract from the resources of the people, and the more it must limit consumption and production, and in the end limit its own revenue. It is clear, therefore, that this extensive system of doing everything for the people must come to a still-stand. It cuts its own throat, though it be by a slow pro cess. It increases expense on the one hand, and diminishes means on the other. At present the national revenue is not sufficient for the expendi ture ; and, under such circumstances, to increase the former by any further restraints on the free employment of labour and capital, instead of al lowing the latter to be increased by the expan sion of the people and their resources, is almost as absurd as an attempt to control the seasons. The University of Oxford is quite in a ferment on the subject of the late conversions of clergy men of the Established Church to the religion of Rome. Many of the students, it appears, are shortly expected to declare themselves Catholics; while not a few of the Professors are suspected of having secretly reconciled themselves to the Papal See. To every well-regulated mind, nur tured in the principles of the Reformation, such a state of things in an English University must be a source of sincere sorrow. Pitying, as we do, these dupes of their own credulity, it is not our intention to join issue with our Contempora ries in abusing them, or calling in question the purity of their motives. The agony of mind which the sincere convert to any creed, if he be a good man, must feel before he can bring him self to renounce the religion of his fathers, of his childhood, and of his country—before he can, by implication, denounce as unhallowed by true faith the temples in which he worshipped— before he can bring himself to gladden the hearts of his enemies, and fill with sorrow the breasts of his friends by renouncing his religious fellow ship with them; is at least deserving of Christian forbearance, if not of pity. Nor is such a man ,likely to be moved by revilings for having taken such a step. The conflict through which he must have passed must have rendered him indifferent to what the world thinks or says upon the subject. But while we are for avoiding everything like a persecution of the converts to Romanism, it be comes a serious question how we are to close the floodgates which admit the pestilent stream into our Universities. Unless proper means be taken to arrest in time the progress of the evil it actu ally threatens to overflow this country. Some of the divines at Oxford are assuming all the f unctions of Roman Catholic priests, without going thr oug h any f orm o f conve rsion, so that there is a positive danger of the Established Church being a overthrown out the wi m th a o t a t t e t r. th T e hus, people knowing any thing for example, auricular confession has been intro duced into the • mversity, and there are persons in Oxford who can testify to such confessions being made to, and absolutions for sins given by, clergymen of the Church of England! This may sound monstrously - improbable, but we have, among others, the testimony of the Rev, B ADE N POWELL, Savilian Professor of Geo metry in the University of Oxford, that it is quite true, nevertheless. This distinguished divine, in a sermon preached on Sunday, the 7th inst., before the Mayor and Corporation of Oxford, gives the following account of the re cent doings of the Professors of Puseyism " This system, now so extensively spreading i n t hi s land, finds its ma in strength in the partial support o f numbers who think it, at least, harm l ess, t and still go along with its advocates to a certain e_x en!. I t am . per suaded, on the contrary, that objectionthe . _ r l s i t es atts very foundation. I contend against it . trom first to render itst principles. But, if practical proofs are wanting rlit nature clear, I will advert to one singlecircumstance which, I think, alone must aftbrd sufficient evidence. Of all the artifices of the Romish system, the most powerfully efficacious for maintaining the iron despotism with which she ruled the conscienc es of men, the prolific source of the most monstrous of her abuses, the true found ' working of the mystery of iniquity,' ha s ever been in the mai n t ena nce of what is termed auric ular confes sion,' coupled essentially with the power of the priest to give absolution. - " Now (I speak not from loose reports, but from the THE SUN. LONDON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1841. tati-nokij of facts 'which have been brought to my know ledge) attempts have been 'wade recently, in this place, by ministers of the Established Church, to enforce thiS very practice on those under their influence." The Oxford Chronicle confirms this, and adds that a Protestant clergyman not resident in the College, has urged the. adoption of auricular confession by his, family, male and female; and that it is quite common among the Newmanites of the University. Thus seduced by the clergy, numbers of people are becoming essentially Roman Catholics without knowing it. The mis chief is done, not by the open converts to Roman ism, but by pretending Protestants, whose ac commodating consciences allow them to eat the bread of an Establishment which they are covertly seeking to overthrow. The results to which Puseyism was leading its professors, was clearly and explicitly pointed out to the clergy of the diocese of Chester, by their eminent Pre late, in his charge of 1838. " Many subjects," said Dr. SUMNER ) " present themselves, towards which I might be tempted to direct your thoughts. One more especially concerns the Church at present, because it is daily assuming a more serious and alarming aspect, and threat ens a revival of the worst errors of the Romish system. Under the specious pretence of defer ence to antiquity and respect for primitive models, the foundations of our Protestant Church are undermined by men who dwell within her walls, and those who sit in the Re formers' seat are traducing the Reformation. It is again becoming matter of question whether the Bible is sufficient to make men wise unto salvation—the main article of our national con fession, justification by faith, is both openly and covertly assailed, and the stewards of the mys- teries of Gm) are instructed to reserve the truths which they have been ordained to dispense, and to hide under a bushel those doctrines which the Apostles were commanded to preach to every creature." It is the duty of the priesthood not to lose a moment in endeavouring to counteraetthe efforts of the Puseyites to restore the spiritual domina tion of the Papal See in England. This is only to be done by labouring to enlighten the people; by the exercise of constant benevolence and charity; by visiting them in sickness; by re lieving them in distress; and by taking an active, kindly interest in all that tends to promote their welfare. At present the Church is felt by the poor to be a curse, not a blessing. They are crushed by the weight of its support, and hardly ever communicate with its ministers, save through the harassing medium of a tithe col- lector: Hence the apathy with which the humbler, classes regard the threatened downfal of an Establishment, to uphold which their an cestors would have died in the field or perished at the stake. Catholicism would not make a convert in England once in a century, if the clergy of the Establishment only performed those duties which at their ordination they so lemnly swear to perform. The manner in which the chief organ of the Ministers yesterday abused the Chartists, calling the " generality of them" " rank, incorrigible scoundrels," is an index to the manner in which the Tories are preparing, by means of their new barracks in the manufacturing districts, to treat the Chartists. They will no longer be allowed to hold their conventions, and intrude into public meetings. They must no more think of . assembling in the Bull-ring, or of rallying round the defeated candidate for Nottingham, standing on hostility to the New Poor-law. Heavy as was the hand of the Whigs on them, they will now find that the hand of their late allies, the Tories, will crush them as with the foot of an elephant. The Chartists will also admire the morality of the Tories. Their political opinions make them scoundrels; and, according to the Times, an aspi ration for liberty is a grave moral offence, like forging Exchequer bills. If the Tories remain in office, they will destroy, with liberty, all moral distinctions. They are, however, consistent, for it is necessary to obliterate the distinction be tween right and wrong to preserve their power. To carry out the Ministerial views, the Times borrowed from the French Tory papers a long diatribe against the Secret Societies of France, to terrify the upper classes here against those " rank, incorrigible scoundrels," the Char tists. The Tories make bitter complaints against Mr. O'CONNELL for receiving assistance from Republican America, but they invoke all the aid they can from despotic France. Independent of the notorious Holy Alliance, which was never put an end to, and which is now tacitly revived, there is a combination of all the Governments of Europe to act against the people. The growth of freedom in Spain or in England is looked on by them with great abhorrence, and they are always ready; like Louis PHILIPPE in Spain, to check and stint it wherever they have the means. Their Press comes to their help, and thus we have the exaggerated, partial, and distortad view given by the French official authorities of secret societies, adopted on the same day that the Chartists are described as " generally rank incorrigible scoundrels." If the populace in both countries were well provided for, there might, perhaps, be some justice in the vituperation; but when they are in both countries in a most wretched condition, and have many just causes for discontent—when England is almost threatened with a servile in surrection, it seems to us alike impolitic and un just to exasperate the populace in both countries by a similar treatment. Communications have already taken place between the trades of Eng land and the trades of France, and if the people are denounced by their respective Governments as common foes, it is to be apprehended that they will endeavour to make cause against them both. We refer with pleasure to the public meeting lately held at Leeds, and the presentation of a handsome service of plate to the late Member for the Borough, Mr. BAINES. In all the testi monies borne by the several speakers at this meeting to the ex-Member, we cordially concur; for no man has ever paid more diligent attention to his Parliamentary duties, or advocated liberal measures with more undeviating skill, boldness, and sincerity. It must be highly gratifying to Mr. BAINES to find his past labours thus appre ciated by his fellow-townsmen, now that he is in the decline of life, and his work is well nigh done. Ever since his first entrance on public life, now forty years ago, he has advocated the principles of Liberal and substantial Reform, with a steady perseverance, that few have equalled, and none have surpassed. From Madrid we have advices of the 17th inst. They bring no news of any interest. France had ordered her vessels of war to retire from the Spanish coast, so that there are no lon ger any suspicions entertained of the firmness of ESPARTERO, who is now at Barcelona.

The French Journals of Wednesday announce with an air of triumph the acquittal of the N-a tional by a Jury for an alleged libel upon the Government. Nothing can be more preposterous than the conduct of the Government in autho rising prosecutions of the press in cases where an acquittal is within the limits of a possibility. By so doing it degrades itself, and draw's down ridicule upon the Royal authority. But the 'acquittal of the National cannot be considered the triumph of the press in a country where such an outrage as the following narrative exhibits, can with impunity be inflicted upon a public writer ' The responsible editor of the Revelateur of Montpel loiffere,n:•e who had been condemned to imprisonment for an against the laws ou the press, Yontp a letter to th a t j ournal conta i n i ng t h e following statement. lie says that on th e 9th instant, when about to has addressed proceed from Nismes to the prison at . the geellier, he was gendarmerie, by w h om he was bruta ll y h a ridled, arrested and handed over to and thrust into prison in that town. Whilst in prison at Nismes, he wr o t o to the Proeureuidu Roi, requesting to be allowed.to pro cee d to Montpelli e r in a carr i age , a t his own expense, and off er i ng a l so to pay the expenses of the two gendarmes who were to be his escort ; but whilst the I'rocureur . Roi was replying to him through the keeper of the prison, that he must address his appliCation to the Commandant of Gendarmerie, he was at the same time giving orders to have him removed to Montpellier, from brigade to brigade, handcuffed, and with a chain round his neck; and at the end of three days, during which he was confined with thieves, and had them for bedfellows, these orders were carried into execution, with the exception of putting a chain round his neck—a severity with which the gendarmes humanely dispensed. His fellow-prisoners on the route, says he, were seven men condemned to " trainer le boulet ; " but whilst his own hands were bound like those of w forcet condemned to the bagne, the other prisoners were unbound, and walked freely by the side of him, sometimes singing, and sometimes imploring charity of the passengers on the road. Such conduct on the part of a Government, as is here exhibited, would disgrace a nation of Hottentots. _ The Siecle asserts that the movement of French troops towards the Belgian frontier was the re sult of a private negotiation on the part of King LEOPOLD, of which his Ministers were ignorant. This is not impossible. The King of the BEL GIANS, like his Royal father-in-law, is exceedingly fond of acting without the knowledge of his Cabinet. Now, this is rather unfair, when it is considered that the Ministers are responsible for the acts of the Sovereign. A letter from Goritz of the 12th of November says:— " The news received this morning respecting the Duke of Bordeaux continue to be satisfactory, but the Royal family has expressed a wish that the stay of the Prince at Vienna may be protracted as long as shall be neces sary to effect his entire recovery, and to avoid the fatigue of a long journey.—Gazette de France. A journal says that M. de Bourquenay, who has just set out for Constantinople, with the title of Minister Plenipotentiary, is not destined to succeed M. de Pon tois, and that the Cabinet has desired to recompense his docility and his zeal by an office superior to that of First Secretary of Legation. M. de Pontois has arrived at Marseilles. He may pass on the road M. de Bourquenay, who, as his friends say, does not think of making a long stay in the Levant. A Ministerial paper affirms that the Marquis de Brig none, Ambassador of Sardinia at Paris, will address the King in the name of the diplomatic body on New Year's Day. Yesterday, after the Council of Ministers, Messrs. d'Argout and Dupin had a pretty long conference with the. King. The journals of the Southern Department continue to announce the passage of troops, proceeding to the de partments on the frontiers of Spam. A fire, attended with melancholy results, occurred a few night since, at Amiens, in the house of a baker. The husband, wife, and one of the children, were burnt to death ; but a man, the female servant, and three chil dren, were saved. _ _ . . The European population of the French pbssessions in Northern Africa is at present 32,017—viz., 14,669 men, 7,742 women, and 9,606 children. Of these there I are 7,585 men, 4,470 women, and 6,331 children at Al giers. Out of the whole number 13,563 are French, 9,591 Spaniards, 4;392 English and Maltese, 3,136 Ita lians, 1,329 Germans, and six Greeks or Russians. The native population, in all the towns occupied by the French, is calculated at 30,000. The Independent of Brussels states that Mademoiselle Panas, " dite Madame Parent," who is a native of France, has been ordered by the Administrateur de is Surete Publique to quit Belgium. A passport was deli vered to her on Sunday, with orders to leave within 24 hours on her way to Lille. This is the lady described as the wife of the ex-Colonel Parent, and who was arrested as an accomplice in the late plot. The same paper adds that the police, on Sunday, seized four bar rels of gunpowder in one place, and in another a trunk, containing papers and a carbine addressed to Col. Parent. The Minister of the Interior has appointed a Commis sion to prepare a Report on the competitors who have submitted models and designs for the tomb of Napoleon. The Commission is composed of Count Houdetot, Peer of France ; M. Fontaine, architect; M. David, sculptor; M. Cave, Director des Beaux Arts • M. Vitel, Deputy ; M. de Remusat, Deputy ; M. Ingres, painter ; M. Peysse, Conservator at the Ecole des Beaux Arts ; and M. Theophile Gauthier, one of the Editors of the Presse, who is to be Secretary of the Commission. A collection of all the weights and measures used in France at various periods is now making at the office of the Minister of Commerce, and will form there a kind of museum. ..---. The uniform of the foot chasseurs, in garrison at Vincennes, has just undergone great changes. The frock coat is now of dark green cloth, the cap is orna mented with galloon, and the waist-belt, which was black, is now white, the same as that of the cavalry. The Moniteur Parisien says that the trial of Quenisset and his accomplices will be put off till the sth or Gth of December, to allow of the Yrocureur-General, M. Her bert, who has only taken part in the cognizance of this affair, a short time since, being able to study it with suf ficient attention. The Guienne states that eighty refugee Carlist officers' at Bordeaux gave, this autumn, an honourable example of courage in supporting the hardships of exile. They were sent by the Comte Louis de Calvimont to the Vicomte de Chasteigner, under the direction of M. Mayor, their superior officer, and they all aided in getting in the vintage for the Vicomte, conceiving that in so working they were not doing any thing derogatory to their character, but, on the contrary, were gaining their livelihood with honour. M. Lehrberger, a Jew, who carried on the business of a printer at Rcedelheim, in the Grand Duchy of Hesse- Darmstadt, and who was much respected, having died a short time ago, all the Christian clergy of the place, Catholic and Protestant, accompanied by the civil and military authorities, attended the funeral. The toleract spirit of the clergy of Rcedelheim did not stop here. M. Thudichum, the oldest member of the Catholic clergy, opened a subscription for the widow and nine children of the deceased who had died poor, and himself sub scribed 100 florins (250 f.) The Breton of Nantes states that, at Porille, near that place, the banns of marriage have been published be tween a young woman and a Catholic clergyman, who was regularly ordained ,priest some years ago, but has since left the Catholic'Clinkh for the sect of the Abbe Chatel. "It remains`to lie seen," observes this Paper, " whether, according to 'the laws of France, a priest can abandon the ecclesiastical condition, and marry.

" Who runs' may read." rOTLEIGN. Since the French revolution of July—a period of eleven years and four months—the King of the French. has had nitieteeriCabinets 1 The longest in office was the Cassimir Perier Ministry, which had a duration of 577 days ; the shorteSt that .of the Duke of Bassano, which was dissolved in eight days. Marshal Soult has been five times in office, M. Guizot three, M. Thiers three,, and the Duke de Broglie an equal number. Count Mole and M. Lafitte have been each twice in office. The average duration of each Cabinet is 215 days—no very long time fur acquiring much proficiency in statesmanship. The National was tried for a libel on the French Go vernment on Tuesday and acquitted. With the single exception of the Paris . Globe, the whole press denounce the prosecution of the National as an act of madness. The France exclaims:—" What is to be thought of a Government which is constantly provoking its adver . .- sary, and whi c h, lik e th e me t amore i n It a li an comedy receives all the blows?" The Presse says:—" We fore saw the acquittal of the National. Will the Govern ment at length comprehend what we said on thiS subject two months ago—namely, that discussion is frequently better than prosecutions?" The Constitutionnel, and the Courrier Francais com ment on the report now current that a, conference of the great Powers of Europe on the affairs of Spain has been seriously under discussion. The former of these jour nals regards the report as true, and censures the propo sal as an infraction of the non-intervention principle, and an arbitrary attack upon the rights of a free State. The Courrier says, the idea of such a conference is so unjust and unreasonable that it will not, in the •absence of proof, believe the report of its having been entertained. The Siecle asserts the following to have been the cause of the recent assembling of French troops on the north ern frontier :-" The King of the Belgians was at his seat of Ardennes, when he was informed of the conspi racy at Brussels, in which the democratic 'party was be lieved to be engaged. Before entering into any further inquiries his Majesty despatched.M. Van Praet, his Se cretary, to Paris, to desire the French Government to prepare a military demonstration on the frontier. Such was the origin of the assemblage of troops at which the, Belgian Minister showed so much surprise, to the great astonishment of all who knew how affairs were managed between the Courts of Brussels and the Tuileries." The Temps states that orders have been sent to the French ships of the line, which recently arrived at Barcelona, to return to Toulon, their presence being no longer needed on the Catalonian coast. At a meeting of the " 221," or Mole party, held last Sunday, it was resolved that M. de Lamartine (the poet and Deputy), should be proposed as President of the Chamber, to replace M. Sauzet. It is reported that the Ministry prefers the latter as a candidate ; but if it will preserve the support of the Right, it must yield to their demand and support the return of Lamartine. The Franconian Courier of the 21st instant gives the heads of the arrangement concluded between the Papal see and the diocese of Cologne. That principle is re spected which renders nugatory the dismissal of a Bishop by the temporal authority, and the Pope's brief on. this point establishes the following three articles :-Ist. The Archbishop is to have a coadjutor, who will succeed him, but only on the plea of his Eminence's state of health, and because the administration of his diocese is too onerous. 2d. M. Geissel, Bishop of Spire, is appointed coadjutor to the Archbishop, with his own consent, the latter, however, to retain the title of Archbishop of Co logne. 3d. The said coadjutor is appointed Apostolic Administrator of the diocese of Cologne. PUBLIC OPINION. A document recently issued at Birmingham by an As sociation for promoting the general welfare of their fel low-countrymen;fornis the subject of a leading article in the Times, in the course of which our Contemporary observes :—" Our own domestic circulation has no doubt been greatly reduced by the failure of many joint stock banks, and the due caution of others, more para. cularly of the Bank of England, imposing a restraint on their issues. Our home means of purchase are, there fore, no doubt greatly , diminished. How are such evils to be abated ? Certainly by the endeavours of very different politicians from the authors of the Birmingham address, and the members of the Association ; but in the first place by Christian charity, and above all by humane laws for the relief and support of those who are in no way the authors of the sufferings under which they la bour. We have bestowed this discussion on the address, because we see, though the design is kept out of the full ~ , . glare of aay, that it yet aims at a compulsory paper cir culation, with which we are convinced there can never either be security or comfort." The Morning Chronicle reverts to the question of Puseyism in the following terms :—" The Puseyites, it seems, feel themselves 'strong enough to think of carry ing a contested election for the Professorship of Poetry. They are determined to show that they can write ' prose and worse' in defence of their Papistical principles. Of course, as the county candidate said to his wife, ' every thing comes out at an election ;' and sundry extraordi nary fraternizations with Rome—auricular confession and else—have already transpired. We make no com ment, at present, on the theology, or the jesuitry, of these revelations. There they are, in the bosom of the Church; that is all."—And this is the very fault we find with the Puseyites ; that holding Papistical tenets, they still stick to Protestant temporalities. We quarrel not with their ' opinions ; freedom of thought is the right of all ; but we do object to their continuing within the pale of the orthodox Church establishment, when they are doing all they can to further the interests of the rival Church. We have no notion of men fighting under false colours. The Herald thus alludes to Mr. O'Connell's late bear ing at the Viceroy's levee in Dublin Castle. There is a great deal of absurd exaggeration—for party purposes, of course—in our Contemporary's statement:—" Through the person of Earl. de Grey, Mr. Daniel O'Connell, as Lord Mayor of Dublin, has dared to offer a token of dis respect to the Sovereign of the United Kingdom. In pre senting himself in an offensive manner to the Lord Lieu tenant of Ireland at his Excellency's late levee,he insulted Queen Victoria, and, through her Majesty, every one of her subjects. The fact is notorious; it was witnessed by a larger assemblage of all classes of Irishmen than has for ten years been gathered round any Irish Viceroy. It is confessed and admitted by the offender ; nay, more, an apology has been tendered at the hands of a Corpora tion menial for tho outrage on decency, for the disrespect to the Queen's deputy in Ireland, and for the deliberate insult to.the Sovereign herself. To be sure there is an excuse—but such an excuse ! Mr. Daniel O'Connell misconducted himself sit.' the levee because he personally knew no better, and bee.,ause the Corporation Marshal had not drilled good manners into him for the nonce. Such is the apology which is tendered by the Lord Mayor of the metropolitan city of Ireland for an offence which the meanest Irish bogtrotter would not, un prompted by motives, have committed." The Derby Reporter, alluding to the emigration ques tion, makes the following remarks :-:—"Depopulating emigration must bear our labourers by hundreds of thousands to lands where labourers are few. But how often is the experiment to be repeated? Years will again swell our numbers to their present extent—are they again to be driven across the Atlantic by the scourges of monopolies which will not let them live at home ?" The Plymouth Journal observes.—" What is the pre sent position of this country in reference to the ele ments of its prosperity—its commerce and manufac tures ? By a false system of Protection and Mono poly, to the principle and injurious effects of which we cannot now specifically advert, the price of bread and of many other necessary and desirable commodities which affect the happiness, nay even support the exist ence of the homes of England, is raised to the consumer for the supposed benefit of particular interests. It is easy to see that the pressure of this shameful taxation falls ' with severest weight on the humbler and more numerous classis." We extract t e following from the Doncaster Gazette —" The privet on, destitution, and suffering which are now severely experienced in the manufacturing districts, are, it is feared, likely to be considerably in creased during the prevalence of the appreaching winter, especially if it prove, as is by no means a matter of improbability, one of great severity. It is indeed to be apprehended that countless numbers of ope ratives, who have large families, will, under these cir cumstances, be starved to death, or reduced to such a deplorable condition as to be carried off by disease, arising from the want of sufficient food." MONEY-'TADE—COMMERCE. At the half-yearly meeting of the Southern, Eastern, LonAn and Dover Railway, held at the London Tavern yesterday, it appeared from the Report that contracts were entered into for completing the railway to Ton bridge, in May, to Staplehurst-road, in July, and to Ashford in December next. The tunnel of Bletchingly is completed, and by the first of January the line would be connected with the Brighton line, near Red-hill. The balance in hand was stated to be 26,8611 ss. Id. Mr. Cubitt is engineer in chief: A rumour is given in the Derby and Chesterfield Re porter, that the extensive cotton mills, at Burton-on- Trent, recently closed, are about to be occuped by a new species of manufacture—viz., tape and brace making. It is said that 100 hands will be required immediately. C9IKMERCIAL REFORM. On Tuesday last a public dinner, attended by upwards of 400 gentlemen, was given at Glasgow, in honour of James Lumsden, Esq., and William Cross, E sq ., th e lately elected Liber a l Representatives of the City Coun cil. Mr. Wallace, the lion. Member for Greenock, de livered an excellent speech, remarking that he was now going into his tenth Parliament, and he had voted uni formly for a total abolition of the Corn-laws. But while they were, no doubt, the master-grievance, the Import duties were also as baneful, and he concluded expressing his determination to promote their complete revision. NAVAL AND IVZILITARY. The dreadful loss of life and property which has oc curred during the heavy gales of the last six weeks upon the south-eastern coast of England, has led to the pro position that the Margate-roads should be formed into a line of floating breakwaters, commencing at the Long Nose Point, and extending in a north-westerly and north-easterly direction the distance of one mile and a half. The expense would not be more than 50,0001., and form a harbour of the first importance. On Tuesday the Illustrious (72 guns), Capt. Erskine, with Sir Charles Bagot on board, got under weigh at Falmouth about two o'clock, and proceeded for America with a fino breeze. Sir Charles did not land while de tained there. LAW AND POLICE. At Bow-street Ti;;;tw(; men were brought up charged with making a disturbance at St. Giles's work house. It appeared from the evidence of the parish officers, both of St. Giles's and the Strand Union, that applications for relief have, within the last few weeks been made by such numbers of persons that they find it quite impossible to comply with the demands. Sixty or seventy persons, many of them excavators, have ap plied in the course of a day. PINE ARTS. The Polish Royal and Poniatowski gems, formerly the property of the Kings of Poland, are now in the possession of ➢lr. Tyrell of Craven-street. They are in number 1,200, consisting of a series of heads, single figures, and groups, cut on sardonyx, calcedony, ame thyst, beryl, &c., and beautiful as works of art. The Luxor obelisk at Paris, is said to be in a dange rous state, owing to a fissure at its base, which is daily increasing. THEATRICAL. The Duke of Wellington, accompanied by Lady Burg hersh and a party, occupied her Majesty's box at Covent garden Theatre last night. An alarm of fire was raised last night at the Adelphi Theatre, which occasioned much confusion, the house being crowded; Mr. Yates, however, came forward and assured the audience that the alarm was altogether a false one. SPORTING. The town of Aylesbury will be excessively gay next week. —Her Majesty's stag-hounds visit it for the first time, and Baron Rothschild, the Earl of Rosslyn, and a number of the nobility and gentry, are expected to hunt there. COURT-FASHIONABLE. Prince Nicholas Esterhazy arrived last night at Chandos House from Middleton Park. Prince Paul Es terhazy is expected to arrive on the 10th of December, to resume his diplomatic functions at this Court, and to be present at the marriage of his only son and heir to the daughter of the Earl and Countess of Jersey. The Marquis and Marchioness of Thomond left Taps low. House, on Wednesday last, on a visit to Sir Gore Ousley, at Hall Barn, Bucks. The Earl of Brownlow and his family left Belgrave square yesterday for Torquay, The Earl and Countess Grosvenor left Grosvenor square yesterday for Motcombe Park. The Dowager Countess of Sefton left Stoke Farm last week for Croxteth. Prince Albert has consented to lay the first stone of the Royal Exchange, but we believe no day has yet been fixed for the ceremony. MISCELLANEOUS. A Wilts paper states that sheep-stealing is greatly on the increase. Were rat-stealing also on the increase Sir James Graham would stand a very fair chance of being kidnapped. Who is the English poet that the Puseyites ought most to admire ?—Pope. At a trial that took place yesterday in the Sheriff's Court, for slander upon a Solicitor, the Counsel for the plaintiff expressed his opinion that " some attorneys were perfectly harmless !" We never heard of such at torneys, and would just as soon believe that some sharks were harmless ! His Royal Highness the Duke of Cornwall is the first heir-apparent to the Throne who has been born free of the City of London. His father, the Prince, having been some time since admitted a freeman of the Goldsmith's Company, the young Prince obtains his freedom by patrimony, and, being of full age at his birth, may take up his livery at any time on paying his fees. A meeting of the freeholders of the county of Ren frew was to be held yesterday to wee congratulatory addresses to her Majesty and Prince Albert. Mr. Wal lace, the Member for Greenock, being anxious to bring under the notice of the Queen the unprecedented dis tress prevailing in that district, bad given notice of an amendment to that effect, which was to be opposed. RUMOURS OF THE DAY. The Commissioners of Woods and Forests are ex pected to apply for an Act of Parliament next Session, to annex a piece of ground, now considered anti-paro chial, between Kensington and Paddington, to Kensington Palace, to be used as a " kitchen garden." By the same Act they will also take power to exchange with the Provost of Etln College, certain land belonging to the Crown, near Eton, for about 53 acres of ground around and including Primrose Hill. THE QUEEN DOWAGER. His Serene Highness the Duke of Saxe Mein ingen, attended by Sir Andrew Barnard, left this morning for town. The Duchess Ida of Saxe Weimar and Prince Edward remain. _ _ The bulletin exhibited this morning of her Majesty's health was as follows : " Her Majesty the Qucen Dowager sat up several hours yesterday without being fatigued ; but her Majesty was troubled with her cough this morning, but in other respects is as well as yesterday. " D. DAVIES, M.D. " Sudbury Hall, Nov. 25, 1841." MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 25.—The busi ness done in the Cotton Market to-day is to a fair ex tent, the sales amounting to 4,000 bales, all of which are taken by the trade.

MANCHESTER STOCK EXCHANGE, NOV. 25.—The only business done to-day is Midland Counties, at 804 ; and the market is without alteration. There are, however, no Stocks pressing. By a private vessel from Demerara papers to the 15th of October have been received, from which we take the Monthly Report of the West Coast and Bank District Agricultural Society, eliding the 11th of September : " Somewhat contrary to the usual routine of the sea sons the weather has been rainy ; this has caused the canes cut to yield but indifferently ; it has, however, been highly advantageous to the young cultivation, and has afforded to the planter a prolonged season, to enable him to supply fields which there is but too much reason to suppose were, from peculiar causes, much neglected last year. " The labourers of many estates during the earlier portion of the month worked very irregularly. The fer ment caused amongst them by the operation of the Rum Ordinance had scareely . subsided ; they are still un settled, and are in many instances demanding an equiva lent for the rum now withheld under the recent ordinance. " The reports received respecting immigrants are, on the whole, highly satisfactory, both as to their general inclination, labour, and their health ; in some in stances, however, they have shown an erratic disposi tion. The cause of it is not difficult to divine. They are generally allowed some provisions, in some instances one month's, gratis, on every estate they go to ; having exhausted that indulgence on one estate, the temptation is but too strong to try the same plan on another, consequently much changing about is the result. It is an evil of a temporary nature, however, that carries its own remedy with it, consequently, little weight is attached to the circumstance by the Society." THE FUNDS. The English Securities opened firm. Consols, for Money, are 89k 4, and 89; i f for the Account ; Three per Cents. Reduced, WB*+ ; Exchequer Bills 8 10 prem.

The supplementary notice from the Bank of England has excited a good deal of conversation in the City. It is evident that it must be intended for the mercantile com munity as well as for the members of the Stock Exchange, since Bills of Exchange as well as Exche quer Bills and India Bonds m ust be accompanied with a promissory . note. If this display of mistrust is imitated in private circles, there bids fair to arise a very unusual and inconvenient state of things in the Money Market, and people will naturally be under the impression that nothing can secure them against fraud or forgery, but similar precautionary measures to those adopted by the Bank. This will be giving double se curity for the same accommodation. Consuls, for Money, 89i 4 ; ditto, Account, 89i ; Mexican, 254- ; Portuguese, 32i 33 ; Spanish, 23i 1. THE BREVET.—In addition to the Brent of Wednesday, it is said that in a day or two a Brevet pro motion of officers in the East India service will appear in the Gazette. SUlClDE.—Yesterday morning a young man, of the name of William Henry Gosling, who resided in Queen -street, Chelsea, maker of emery and glass papers, after being out all night drinking, returned home about , half-past seven o'clock, when, on his wife reproaching him for his folly, he took up his hat, walked out of the house, and threw himself into the Thames. A person of the name of Wells, who was passing at the time, gave an alarm, who, with several others, made a search for the body, but they could not find it. His unfortunate wife is left with two children to fight their way through the world. EVENING SUN LA WT INTELLIGENC I. ROLLS' COURT.—(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Chancery-lane.) ass ii This morning a number of gentlemen, who is had p their examination, appeared in Court, and were srora and enrolled as solicitors. MORALL V. SUTTON. The MASTER of the Rou.s gave judgme nt in:: why suit, the facts of which were reported in The Sun k;ai days ago. The question before the Court was. Ire ther Sarah Calcott the younger took an esta te for _ only, or an absolute interest in soinei freehold e state ?: in Gloucestershire, under the testator's will. His L °l.d d ship said the mode in which the testator 11:44 expressed himself, did not afford any e in the construction of the will, and it was still morbe unfortunate that neither of the two constructions 04,4.; to be put upon the words had the effect of ma kin g part of the case clear and consistent; but on tbe o h~: cf. consideration which he had been able to gi" salt case, and without being able entirely to sa`%ll, himself, it appeared to him that the interpret:W(4l4 in favour of the plaintiff was the most probable 0 11 1 c oal . , sister 4, and he was therefore of opinion that Samuel cott, the younger, took only an estate for life. WILSON V. TINDALL. e tOn This case, which was an application for an iniunt b to restrain the defendant from infringing a Pa t t, o o; longing to the plaintiffs for making candles from; e• nut oil, was resumed this morning. The facts Were ported in The Sun yesterday. tovi Mr. PEM BERTON, in reply, contended tha t the Pt, was good, and that the plaintiffs ought not to be d 7 ool pelled to try that question at law. That it h a 00 been departed from by the plaintiffs, and that hap evidence of both parties there was a clear case 0, fringement. and to The MASTER of the ROLLS said that wit h reg. lag the argument of the validity of the patent, from its a , enjoyment by the plaintiff, and the evidence in the foe, davits, he was of opinion the injunction Praff,,,tiott ought to be granted. The question' for consiu";; t he was whether any terms ought to be imposed-Of facts plaintiff, or other means used for investigating 02;001- than those adopted in the usual course of P d e oa ings. It was to be observed that all orders las, applications of that kind were merely interlos3`%a the injunction, of course would be only an in i .l un r et t i bt until furthei order. Notwithstanding this 01 ' 1 ,4 bo defendant might put in his answer, by r tiel might possibly disprove the affidavits, and the P s ta ir might respectively proceed to evidence; an d on the j, ing of the case, the law with regard to it, and the 1 40 the depositions, would have to be re-considered, "tory, reconsideration, for aught ho knew to the C °l/ 00 10' might justify the Court in coming to a differen t 1111 sion than that come to on the of p res ent occasion' At te' 13 .„. defendant had expressed his desire to have t h e 1 tried at law; and though he had no doubt wil! te ;;tl l , , , the competence of the Court to decide witholloboil dor question was, whether it was not a more c_ 4o l mode of proceeding to have it , t " - decisq fore the tribunal most proper for to e „ co of legal questions, and where the fo'ivith be better investigated.

COMMON PLEAS-(THIS PEURYMAN V. wENsi,Er The plaintiff and defendants are both and this action was brought to recover juries received from a fall occasioned b; having maliciously driven his carriage driven by the plaintiff. It appeared than before the collision took place there had opposition between the two parties, which' of animosity and mutual annoyance use craft, in such states of their relation vehicles being on the road from Fulbi plaintiff's omnibus had the lead so far square ; when, having pulled up to tal ger, he was passed by the defendant. witnesses stated that the defendant ' before the other to prevent him from crossed from time to time from one si to the other, effectually keeping the plaii til at length the latter was on the point of and had just succeeded in getting side on the point of gaining his former rank i] the defendant purposely drove his omni of the plaintiff, and the latter was throw the concussion.
