LONDON: WEDNESDAY, JUNE 23, 1841. The first Parliament of Queen VICTORIA'S reign is closed. Tt was yesterday prorogued by her MAJESTY in person, with a view to its imme diate dissolution. The proclamation dissolving it has not yet appeared, but that is a mere matter of form, and the monopolist Parliament, a Par liament to be for ever reprobated in history, is extinguished. We heartily thank her MAJESTY both for put ting an end to it, and for the manner in which she carried the sentence into effect. Her MAJESTY'S speech was worthy of the occasion. Discarding all extraneous topics, thereby telling the nation that neither our foreign relations nor any thing in our domestic concerns is at present of the least im portance, she dismisses the Parliament on the single ground of ascertaining the sense of her people, on the propriety of providing for the/ wants of the public service in " the manner the least burdensome to the community." On that phrase her MAJESTY laid a strong emphasis; she read all the speech with dignity and firm, ness, but her MAJESTY'S manner of readinr; that passage, demonstrates that she makes ',tie cause of her Ministers and her people ker cause, and that ehe lends all the authorit- of the Crown, with all sincerity and zeal, t o the great principle of relieving the people from some of those taxes which are a grievous burden on them without contributing arrything to the Exchequer. That her MAJESTY duly exercised her prero gative adtrlits of no doubt. That she has any other object in exercising it than that of promot ing the interest of her subjects no man but a thorough Tory partizan will assert. The para mount, importance of trade is palpable to all but the bread-taxers; and the hope that public bfesbaess may be facilitated by the authority of a mew Parliament is shared by every human being in the empire. Generally we have to complain that the Royal speeches are too meagre, but this, in few words, says all that is necessary. It is at once short, and pregnant with meaning. We were afraid, on reading the Morning PPost yesterday, that the Ministers would not have suggested to her MAJESTY to speak out so plainly; and as that Journal asserted that any forbear ance migjit be ascribed to the Sovereign, we have its authority for saying that her MA JEATY has heartily assented to an appeal to her people, Whether the exigencies of the State shall be provided for in the /east burthen some manner. Her MAJESTY, with all the authority of the Crown, is fairly committed to the principles of the Wliig Budget, which have been so un ceremoniously condemned by the m onopolist the Hous e of Com mons . F rom e l ect in o :7: 4 l k l o s ts an i appeal is m a d e t o t h e ,l have to decide wh e th er the taxes shall shall not be wisely and j e . r i ed. Llt , hn •do . M . 1 . 44Z.511 WU§ our side, and the taxes cannot be levied on the monopoly principle without constraining her, the electors must also decide whether her MA-. JESTY is to have other Ministers, to whose princi ples she is opposed, forced on her by a new House of Commons. To continue the present system the Crown must be coerced. The Tory monopolists ap peal to the electors to destroy at once the rights of the Crown and the rights of the people. As in the olden time, the Crown is now allied with the people to resist the aristocracy, and the people will be eternally dishonoured if they submit to the monopolists and allow them to coerce the QUEEN. There are certainly not wanting examples in our history of Ministers being forced on the Crown, but in those cases the Ministers were on the popular side. The bulk of the community, and justice, were with them. Whatever support the monopolists may obtain in the counties, the great majority of the people are against them. They are buoyed up by no enthusiasm in a supposed good cause. They have no proud consciousness of rectitude, no solemn conviction of duty, to encourage them in their opposition to the Throne. They seek to preserve a monopoly, which they know is both odious and unjust. Their motives are the most sordid, and the most remote from enthu siasm. They are at once dishonest to the people, and disloyal to the Sovereign. To bear up against disloyalty and dishonesty they have only their own ambition and their own avarice. Their bond of union is that of banditti, and the instant they suppose they are safe, they will quarrel for the plunder. Her MAJESTY has done her part, the electors must now do theirs. Whoever votes for a bread taxer, votes against the QUEEN. Whoever rotes for dear sugar, votes to coerce her MAJESTY. Whoever votes for the monopolist ship-owners, votes both to plunder the people and oppress the QUEEN. No nation ever had a holier cause than ours, and Britons must have lost all respect for the Throne, and all respect for principles of mo rality, if they constitute a House of Commons on the principle of maintaining unjust laws, and forcing her MAJESTY to acquiesce in them. We have not considered the comparative statements of the reductions of taxation lately trumpeted forth by some Whig and Tory jour nals as of much value. Unless such statements be accompanied by a complete knowledge of all the circumstances on which the reductions were made, they are as likely to cause an erroneous as a correct impression. The Tories are said, for example, to have reduced the taxes subsequent to the war some 20,000,0001. sterling, while the Whigs are alleged to have reduced them only about 7,000,0001. in ten years. But it was surely much easier to reduce 20,000,0001. on an expen diture of 70,000,0001., than 7,000,0001. on an expenditure of 50,000,0001., with equal establishments, and which, according to the Tories, was the lowest possible point to which expenditure could be carried. If; after the Tories had reduced the taxes 20,000,0001., alleging that another farthing could not be spared, the Whigs had reduced taxation 1,000,000/., instead of 7,000,0001., as their op ponents admit, they have deserved well of the country. Unless, therefore, the reductions pre viously made by the Tories be taken into ac count—and the greater they were, the greater the merits of those who made still further re ductions—the conduct of the Whigs in reducing taxation cannot be duly appreciated. Another circumstance, for example, which in fluences the merit of the rival parties--the only point in dispute—is the character of the Opposi tion during their respective periods of Govern ment. When'the Tories were in office, the Op position was continually urging economy, and 'forced them, by out-voting them in some cases, to make those reductions for which the Tory scribes now give their party credit. Thus the repeal of the Salt-tax, of the Leather-tax, of the Irish Window-tax, &c., &c., in 1522, was forced on the Tory Government by the Whig and Radical Opposition, and the merit of those and of almost all the reductions made while the Tories were in office, really and truly belongs to the Whigs. While the Whigs have been in office, how ever, the Opposition, far from forcing the Govern ment to be economical, has been continually abusing it for its saving spirit, and continually urging on a greater expenditure. In Parliament and out of Parliament, the Tories have exclaimed against our too much reduced establishments, and have never voted for a single reduction, ex cept that of the proposed allowance to Prince ALBERT. Even on that point they resisted Mr. HUME'S proposition to make the Prince's income 20,0001. From this plain statement of well-known facts, it follows that the greater por tion of the merit of the Tory reduction is really due to the Whig Opposition, while all the merit of the reductions made by the Whigs is exclu sively their own. Now, unless these circum stances be remembered, the statements made by our Contemporaries must produce an erroneous impression. The principles and the inclination of the Tories, whether in office or in opposition, tend to in crease the public expenditure with the sphere of the Government operations. Their mis chievous propensities require the perpetual curb of economical opponents. One of the last peti tions presented to the monopolist Parliament was by Sir R. INGLIS for Church extension, and one of the first acts of the Tory ebvernrnent, if it be true to its principles if Sir ROBERT PEEL believe what he has often asserted, namely, that it is the first duty of the State to provide for the religious instruction of the people in the principles of the Church of England --must be to vote a sum of money to build churches and endow parsons. The surest way to prevent that, and every similar waste of tl i e public resources, is to keep the Tories out of office; as the surest way to make wh'.liever Ministers are in power economical,is ibr the electors to be above bribes, and to tr dist that their representatives shall not vote away the public money. The Whigs may oe made more economical, and the Tories may be taught not to take a single farthing from a confiding people which is not required for the public service, if electors determine to support only men who, like Mr. HUMS, will steadily resist every w as t e f u l and dishonest application of the public money. We direct attention to a communication con cerning the county of Middlesex. It will be a disgrace to the Radicals and Whigs if the me tropolitan county do not return two Reformers, as heretofore, and an indelible disgrace to them if they do not try, at least, to give Mr. BYNG a reforming colleague. We have received a tile of the New Zealand Gazette, to the 30th of Jan. inclusive. A slight disturbance had taken place between the civil authorities and some natives. It appears that a Dr. TAYLOR had been robbed of some goods by a native, and on complaining to the Magistrates an order to arrest the culprit was issued. He resisted, and being aided by his associates escaped. The chief Magistrate, Mr. MURPHY, accompaniM by Lieutenant BEST, and three soldiers, with sonic constables, went in pursuit of the robber. On arriving at where he was concealed, the soldiers were ordered out of sight till the effect of the Magistrate's presence upon the natives could be tried. When the constables approached, one of them was attacked by a native with a spear, upon which Lieutenant BEST drew his sword to defend him. The native rushed upon the officer, and threw him down, when another native snatched the scabbard of his sword and made off with it fur the bush. A shot from one of the soldiers obliged the fellow to drop the scabbard, but the contest ended with the escape of all the culprits. This is the only affray which we believe has yet taken place between the settlers and the natives. - Thetellovri* =lick from the 'New Zealand Gazette of the 16th of January, is important as showing the agricultural prospects of the colony. Port Nicholson at that time boasted of support ing thirteen inns . and public-houses, and two re spectable clubs, one of which is called the " Pick wick Club " We do not think we have ever seen finer oats, barley, and wheat, than is growing up the Hutt. The ears of the wheat are six inches long, and the straw nearly four feet high ; the oats and barley we did not measure, but some wild oats we measured upon the top of the Tinakori range some weeks since we found to be three feet two inches high, and were nearly ripe. It has generally been allowed by persons who have visited various parts of New Zealand that they have not seen any land surpassing the valley of the Hutt in fer tility of soil. It was supposed however, the expense of clearing would prevent its being cultivated at present. Some persons estimated the expense at 70!. per acre, but one good agriculturalist added that if it did cost that sum, it would still be a profitable mode of investing capital, so high was his opinion of the pro ductive power of the soil. Experiment is settling the question ; land is being well cleared and fenced at twelve pounds per acre, and it is our opinion it will be cleared for very much less when per sons are practised in the trade, We expect to see it cleared at 5/. per acre ; for though the trees are often 'large, there is not near the quantity of wood to be found upon an acre in an American pine forest, which is commonly cleared and fenced at three to four pounds per acre. We hope in a few months to be enabled to report a large quantity of land under cultivation, as several en terprising settlers are now busily occupied upon this im portant branch of colonial prosperity... We are satisfied that a very few years will find the Hutt sending out I 20,009 quarters of Wheat, and as many tons of potatoes. It must not, however, be overlooked that we have a large and important agricultural population in the natives. They have done much for us in the way of ing land ; in this very harbour the have saved us an outlay of thousands pounds. They are skilful in the trade. and foreseeing a greatly increase& decoy;,,;, have been sedulously employed in cleabt ig and planting large tracts of country this sertt',7n. We have no doubt that the produce of the harbour will this year exceed all our wants, in addition ''to which we know of about seven hundred tons of potatoes which during the season will be brought into this market, and be disposable for shipment to the other colonies. It is quite evident the uncertainty of demand which existed before this Island was regularly settled as a British colony, was the main cause of the natives not producing on a yet larer scale thtin that for which, as a savage, the New Zealander has long been celebrated. tur coming here has been attended with a material in crease and improvement in their wants, only to be sup plied by an increase of labour, which they are seen at once to be applying in the most profitable manner for themselves and. us. They have acquired a strong pre dilection in favour of flour and bread, they have much clear land, and we doubt not as soon as they have seen grain converted into flour, they will become purchasers of seed wheat, and in a very short time contribute a large quantity of grain to the mills of this settlement. The whole of the Paris Journals, of Sunday, have been received, together with Madrid Papers of the 13th inst. The news brought by the Spa nish Papers has, for the most part, been antici pated. Cabrera finding that the world was be ginning to forget him, has issued a proclamation to hii late companions in arms, which will be found in another column. The affair of the Didier correspondence con tinues to attract the attention of all the leading , Journals. It is a pity that the Government can not see the mischief which it does the King by stooping to notice every petty libeller of his Ma jesty. Important news from Candia appears in the Courrier Francais of Sunday, which we have transferred to our columns of this day. The following is the protest of the Municipal Council of Caen,: against the proposed surcharge on the door and window tax, the opposition to which tax is now occasioning so much embarrassment to the French Minister of Finance:— " Monsieur le Prefet,—The census of the doors and win dows, &c., now in progress, spreads uneasiness throughout the population. The legality of the mode attempted to carry it into operation at Caen is even doubtful. A Ministerial order -commands the census to be made in a form different from that which has hitherto been followed. The result of these two operations is most interesting to this city, because they may furnish a false basis for the establishment and receipt of various taxes. " On the demand of sever. 11 Members of the municipal boiy, the Mayor demanded permission to call together the council of the said body, which permission you granted by letter of the 10th instant. The meeting was to be held on the following day, but in consequence of reasons for which we cannot at pre sent find any explanation, you thought proper to withdraw the permission alluded to. " Under these grave circumstances the undersigned Members of the Municipal Council of the city of Caen demand from you, M. le Prefet, a license for the convocation of an extraordinary meeting of the Council, in order that it may, after full investi gation and mature inquiry, address to the superior authority such declarations as the measure now under consideration re quire.. " Signed by several Members of the Municipality of Cam." The same nature of protest has been signed in several other towns of the west of France. The subjoined observation respecting the financial position of M. Humann are taken from the Temps : " Yesterday, at M. Humann's, a great deal of conversation took place relative to the loan to M. Rothschild and other potentates of the bank. The fall of Rentes the preceding day and the rise in the same evening were explained. One said that the sales had been cau se d by the necessity which M. Rothschild felt of being provided with ample means for all exigences. M. Rothschild had given orders for large sales but he could not find buyers, for M. Agrado, M. Goubart, and others had left town ; so therefore he gave orders to step the offer of sale, and the rise has taken place as a matter of course. The whole affair is now between M. Roths child and M. Human'', and it seems there is a difference of opinion between the Jew banker and the Minister of the Most Christian King. M. Rothschild wi , hes to have the loan at a low price—that is his game—he is a money dealer. M. Hu mana demands a much higher figure ; that is all very natural in a Minister of Finance. M. Rothschild wants to have a loan made at five per cent. M. Humana speaks only of three per cent. M. Rothschild desires the whole loan to be contracted for—M. Humann says a part is only wanted. This struggle between the Minister and the banker is good, because it creates opposition; and it is said that Messrs. Delessar tand Hottinger are competitors for the loan. This is a piece of good news, for if these gentlemen are serious in their offers, M. Rothschild will net have the loan on his own terms." Besides the intelligence from Candle brought by the Acheron we have received the following letter, to which implicit credit ought not be given CANDIA,.IILINE 4.—The Candiots have suffered a serious check, the consequence of which has been an application made by the principal chiefs of the emigrants (query, insurgents) in the island to the Consuls of France and England. These Chiefs have requested the Consuls to ask, in their names, for a confer ence with Tahir Pacha and Mustapha Pacha on board the fleet, to come to an understanding on the adoption of the means best calculated to obtain a satisfactory arran:mient. The Consuls have taken this step which 3-..;„ led to no result. The Turkish Commander lir already corsen! . sed the conference. They have :.'rvii allow these chiefs, if they desire it, to get e-nveyed to some foreign country on board English or (tench ships. " The Chief has asked for ten days to deliberate on this pro posal; this delay has been refused by the Turkish command ers. Such is the state of things, and everybody believes that the question will be speedily settled. The delay of the Turks in completing their preparations to attack is equivalent to ac ceding to the above demand. _ " A notice posted up to-day in Paris announces that the palace of Malmaison is to be sold by auction ; it is to be put up at the price of 300,000 francs. It is known that a consi derable portion of the estate has been separated from the do main."

The greatest wonder of the present age is Mr. J. H. AN DERSON, the GREAT WIZARD of the NORTH, now nightly performing at the above Theatre his wonderful and incredible feats of Necromancy and Occultomacy. As a proof of the rising reputation and renown of this distinguished and not-to-be-equalled Mysteriachist, the Theatre is nightly crowded by ASTONISHED AND DELIGHTED AUDI ENCES, comprising the elite of Science, Literature, and Fwhion, in arid around the Metropolis. To attempt to enu merate or descant on the wonder-workings of this unparalleled artiste would be useless—they must be seen to be believed, and when seen, must be pronounced the ne plus ultra of all that is astonishing, delightful, and rational. The various de lusions performed by THE GREAT WIZARD OF THE NORTH are entirely different from those which gained hire sell immense patronage at the Strand Theatre some time back, which even at that time were universally allowed to be without parallel. The incredibilities he now enacts are the result of many years' research, inde:htigable study, and perseverance, to say nothing of his magnificent display of solid silver apparatus, forming a tout ensemble at once unique and elegant, and alone worthy the public attention and admiration. Strangers at present sojourning in the Metropolis should not neglect visiting the Adelphi Theatre—the Temple of the Magi —the cheapest and greatest treat in London.

HALF-PAST Two.—The Three per Cents. for the Account are as yesterday, 76f. 90c., but sellers. The loan the Minis ter of Finance has been authorised to raise for some time past served to give rise to numerous rumours, as well in respect to the amount as to the period of contracting for it. There appears some foundation for thinking that the .linister of Finance will give a notice en the subject some time in August. WESTMINSTER ELECTION.—We are informed that Mr. Robert Stanhope Wilkes, who has announced him self as a candidate fur 'Westminster, has no chance whatever of being returned. His appearance, therefore, at the present moment as a candidate on the Liberal in terest, can only be productive of mischief. He may mean no harm—he may only wish to obtain an electoral sanction to a good principle; but folly sometimes effects more injury even to those whom it loves than guilt, and we trust Mr. Wilkes, particularly if he possesses all the claims on popular support he mentions in his address, will see the propriety of not forfeiting them, and will withdraw from the ridiculous situation he has thrust himself in. If he do not, the assertion which we have heard, that he is acting under the influence of the Tories, will appear credible, and will receive general credence. One of the impudent and lying assertions of the bread taxers is that for every quarter of foreign corn intro duced into consumption in England, a quarter of British corn would be driven out of the market. For several years past we have imported on an average nearly 900,000 qrs. of foreign grain. Has there in that time been 900,000 qrs. of British grain driven out of the market ? Has a field been left uncultivated in conse quence of the importation ? No. The assertion, then, is a bread-taxer's lie. It might be true if wheat were down to 30s. per quarter—if the people were fed full— were sitting in idleness—and wheat were to be sold in Harnburgh for 15s. per quarter. At present our people need much more food than they can get ; they are in dustrious, and to work, and the probability is that importing f ore i gn wheat would give them strength to work m ore , and create a greater demand for British wheat. The bread-taxers, in default of arguments, em ploy themselves in coining lies ; and the assertion that every quarter of foreign wheat imported would displace a quarter of British wheat in the market, is a thumper of Their mint. THE SHERIFFS AND SIR ROBERT PEEL.—Some of the City wits, renowned for practical jokes, have shut up two dolls in a cage, dressed like the Sheriffs ; and with this emblem of the insulted privileges of the City, they warn the electors against voting for Lord John Russell, who asserted the privilege of Parliament. Unfortunately for the party joke, Sir Robert Peel boasted in the House of Commons in his speech on the sugar question that he hid stood by Lord J. Russell throughout the privilege question. The Tory wit tells, therefore, against the Tory chieftain. Sir Robert Peel, who commanded the Opposi.- tiOn, and controlled the Government, was the real author of the imprisonment of the Sheriffs, as he has always been the assertor of the privileges of Parliament, add the clichiy of dub priTiAegps or people. the caging of the Sheriffs, and the passing of the Poor-law, I which for an electioneering purpose, are ascribed to the Whigs, belong quite. as much tb .the Tories as them. The sins of both are now brought home to them. BOROUGH OF FINSBURY.—A meeting of Mr. Wakley's friends takes place this evening, at seven o'clock, at the White Conduit House, When the Hon. Member will be present. „ . . Tnlcjis OF THE TORIES.—The Standard last night published the following placard which it receivint from Bath :—" Cancel the national debt ! Free trade, cheap bread,.and :plenty .ill. be the result. Let the people, therefore, establish ' Anti-Natio na l D e bt L eagues ,' in every town, for the purpose of accelerating that event. Vote for Itoebnek and. Duncan ! natinal debt. No Corn-laws." It is plain, on. the fitte of such a is preposter ous notice , . that it the invention of some Tory, who aspects by it to damage the popular cause. The national debt will soon.be cancelled if the bread-taxers be allowed much longer to. plunder and .irritate the people. The Anti-Bread-tax League_have proclaimed again and again that the ,national debt tt the and nty bread-tax, iral pe c gp on le seq ca L i Z t y P h t3 e 7 holders are the bread-taxers, and their real friends are those who seek to put an end to the bread-tax in order that the nation may be able to continue the payment of the debt. The placard is obviously an invention of the .Tories, and even the bold and ingenuous Standard does not venture to imply that it emanated from the Com mittee of the Radical candidates, or was known to any of their friends. It is an insult to the understanding of any reader to suppose that he will 1),, taken in by such a bald artifice. The .Eart of Mouritca.shel has addressed a letter to the editor of the Times, regarding; the anecdote that lately went the round of. the Press, respecting a young lady who was attempted. to be seduced by a clergyman, in which his Lorthltio observes, " no blame of any kind could be attritAtted-to the friend of the young lady, and the clel.T s ynian thoug h .he ought never to have put a foot wittin the was of a house of the description, actEd on a praiseworthy and honourable part." His Lordship adds, " the occurrence is not more surprising than another that has come to my knowledge, which took place at Almack's, Ender nearly similar circum stances." A triumphal arch was erected on Monday by the inha bitants of Greenwich, in honour of her Majesty's pass ing through that town. It was decorated with evergreens, flags, &c., in the centre was a double wheat-sheaf, under which was displayed a banner bearing the motto, " God save the Queen ;" at each corner, under a wheat-sheaf were banners bearing the motto, " Melbourne, Peace, and Plenty ;" mid "RuSsell, Peace, and Plenty." Her Ma jesty stopped as she passed under the arch, and appeared much gratified with the attention and the mottoes. Tke arch was erected from Captain Dundas and Mr. Bar nard's Committee-rooms across . the road, near the Church. After the launch about two hundred of the most influential inhabitants of the borough of Green wich, the supporters of Captain Dundas and Mr. Bar nard, sat down to a dinner at the Mitre Hotel, George Barrett, Esq., in the Chair, supported by Charles Har wood and George Smith, Esqrs., County Magistrates, H. Keeble, Esq., and other leading gentlemen. After din ner the health of the Queen, Duke of Sussex, Duchess of Kent, and the rest of the Royal Family in England, Prince Albert. and the Princess Royal, her Majesty's Ministers, the People, the legitimate source of all Power ; Mr. Barnard and Captain Dundas, and success to the cause of Civil and Religious Liberty ; .Tharatts Law Hodges, and the Liberal Electors of West Kent ; Mr. Jolly, and the Liberals at Woolwich ; Mr. Wade and the Liberals at Deptford; Charles Harwood and Geo. Smith, Esqs., and the Liberal Magistracy of Kent, were given. After the health of the worthy and excellent Chairman was drunk with four times four, the party separated, highly delighted and satisfied that their two candidates would be returned with a most triumphant majority. It is well to notice that the wheat upon the triumphal arch, as well as the arch itself, gave great offence to the Tories on Sir George Cockburn's Committee. One gentleman well known threatened to destroy it. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. Our private advices from Madrid of the 14th instant, state that the Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, to which the question of the Guardianship had been referred,. presented its report on the 13th. The Committee was of opinion that the Queen Dowager, not residing in Spain, could not discharge the functions of guardian to Queen Isa bel, and that, the office being now vacant, the Government should call a meeting of both Houses to the effect of ap pointing a successor to her Majesty. It was believed that M. Arguelles- would be elected guardian. The amendment., moved by M. Sanchez Silva to the Tariff Bill had been rejected, and the two first articles of the project of the Committee adopted by the Chamber. Subsequent advices from Madrid, of the . l6th, state, that the Cortes would be prorogued on the Ist day of July, the Ministry intending to demand first an autho rization to levy the taxes for the rest of the year. The next session is to open on the 15th of October. The Five per Cents. left off at 26i for cash, and 26i at 60 days. Accounts from Constantinople of the 2d instant state, that on the preceding day a finnan, with the unalterable ultimatum of the Porte, containing the three concessions recommended to the Sultan by the Four Powers, had been despatched to Alexandria. The latest news from Bulgaria and Macedonia was of an unfavourable character. In Candia Tahir Pacha was said to have received a severe check, but our own ac counts, of a more recent date, shovi'ed that on tht con trary, the Candiots had been overthrown. From Athens we have the _curious fact that the Ring,- Queen, and Court, werevarmly supporting the Candiots. So menacing was the aspect of affairs there that Admiral Stopford had placed two ships of war at the disposal of our Minister, Sir E. Lyons. Our Alexandrian letters of the 27th ult. mention that the plague was still carrying off from 16 to 20 persons daily. The mortality had (on 23d of May) 'diminished, but still averaged 10 per dav, including, however, several cases of cholera. The disease hid been brought to Malta, whence our accounts are of the 6th inst., by cer tain Turkish pilgrims on their return from Mecca, but the precautions taken had prevented its spreading amongst the population. - MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

POPULATION.—The population of Middleton, near Manchester, is 3,837 males, 3,894 females—grand total, 7,731 ; inhabited houses, 1,441 ; uninhabited, 56 ; increase during the last ten years, 828. The popula tion of Chadderton, near Oldham, is 6,402, being a de crease since 1831 of 74 persons. This is owing to there being 106 empty houses, the families having emigrated into other districts. In the township of Tonge, near Middleton, the population in 1831 was 1,800 ; at present it is 2,442, and there are only six. empty houses. In the townships in the neighbourhood of Manchester, where - the principal business is , the -manufacture. of silks, there but•few empty houses in comparison to those places where there are cotton mills.—Liverpoel Chronicle.

Simpson; Hancome, Harrison,- Curtis, Storer, James Campbell, and Thothas It Cooper, from the British Medical Association, from a meeting of members of the profession, being elects of the Borough cf Maryleborie, waited on Sir Benjamin ;;,All and Sir C. Napier. They stated that their purpose waz to ascer tain the opinions of the two Candidates on the subject of Medical Reform generally, and n to engage them to be present in the House of Commons whenever the subject shall be discussed in the next Parliament. —Lin which there is no doubt now entertained by any class of electors, that the Hon. Baronet and the Gallant Commodore will represent this borough.] Mr. Stmrsos said the subject had been too much neglected in Parliament, so that the House had been counted out on nights when important questions of me dical reform were to have been discussed. The law was amply represented in the Commons, and the Church in the House of Lords, but the Medical Profession, notwith standing its equal importance and respectability, had no representative in the Legislature. Both candidates stated that they had not sufficiently attended to the subject to state opinions as to its details, but they would give it their best attention, and promised to be in their places in Parliament whenever any ques tion connected with it came before the House of Commons. Si; BENJAMIN HALL said that on one part of the question his mind was made up, that reform was re quired in the mode of granting diplomas—(Hear)—and as to the appointment of medical officers in the Poor law unions, he thought the person of the best qualifica tions ought to be selected: He said that without giving any opinion as to the mode of paying the officer. Sir CHARLES NAPIER, in answer to a question from Mr. Simpson, said it was his opinion that medical assist ants in the Navy ought to have a private cabin for them selves to read and pursue the study of their profession. He also stated that the mess in the gun-room was as comfortable as that in the ward-room, and less expen sive, particularly since Mates had an increase of rank. The deputation then took their leave, Mr. Simpson and Mr. Harrison, on the part of their colleagues, expres sing entire satisfaction with the reception they had met with, and the frank and sufficient answers they had re ceived. A public meeting of the electors of the parish of Pad dington was held at half-past seven o'clock, for the pur pose of hearing the Reform candidates, and of taking measures to secure their return. _ B. M. Smart, Esq.. was called to the chair, and on the arrival of Sir Benjamin Hall and Sir Charles Napier they were greeted with the most enthusiastic cheering. There were then about 700 electors - present. The CHAIRMAN said that on occasions like this no man should stand upon an apology for undertaking the office imposed upon him, although no man could have a lower estimate than himself of his qualifications to dis charge the duties efficiently. The crisis at which the country had arrived was of the utmost importance. — (Hear, hear.) They had to protect the rights of die poor and of the whole country against those who en joyed monopolies detrimental to the interests of all.— (Hear, hear.) The Whig Ministers had at last declared their determination to put an end to those monopolies which -depressed the energies of the country — (Hear, hear)—and they were opposed by that party which had ever been the enemies of the poor, although they now come forward with hypocritical pretence of being the friends of the poor "par excellence." —(Cheers and laughter.) To show something of the conduct of those self-styled friends of the poor, he would read a statement published by a man who lived amongst them, whom they all knew, and on whom they could rely. The following was the statement : "REFORMERS OF MARYLEBONE. " At a meeting of the friends of Sir J. Hamilton and Mr. Cabbell, held at the Guilford Arms, Guilford street, Russell-square, an Elector put the following to the Tory, Sir James :—" How about the Corn-laws ?" To which Sir James returned the following reply, which for elegance and emphasis stands unrivalled in modern eloquence ! " Damn the Corn-laws !" (Tremendous cheering.) " The same evcning Mr. Cabbell declared that he Fought for the glory of God and his native land.' ! ! ! "At a meeting held at the King and Queen Padding ton Green, Friday, June 18, 1841, Mr. Cabbell uttered the following detestable sentences, distinguished by vul gar ignorance and downright blasphemy ; and yet this person is lauded by his party as a benevolent gentle man ! " If," said Mr. Cabbell, " you fear God ! and value your immortal souls ! ! send me and Sir James Ha milton to Parliament.—(Great laughter.) The Whigs and Radicals are a contemptible .crew—(oh, oh)—they are impertinent fellows—(Laughter)—and I hate them as I hate the lowest depths of hell! ! !—(Loud cries of " Shame.") " Sir Jamas Hamilton then rose and said, this day was the anniversary of the 18th of June, Waterloo-day — (Cheering, and loud cries of " Carnage")—and concluded by eulogising the Duke at the expense of the Gallant Na pier. A motion was then moved in support of these Liberal candidates, when— " An Elector leaped into the midst of the Tory party, and boldly defended the right of the Reformers to good Government. What, continued the speaker, have I not . a right to defend the party to whom I belong from unjust aspersions? and have I not a right to say I feel disgusted at the indecent language of Mr. Cabbell, about the fear of God and our immortal souls?—(Cheers.) And then, the Hon. Gentleman hates us as he hates hell—(Loud cries of Shaine)—he disbelieved in the charitable dispo sition of the Hon. Gentlemen from such un-Christian observations. He had been informed that the public mu nificence blazoned forth to the world by Mr. Cabbell, was the result of benefactions given to him in trust to dispose of?—(0h! oh! and cheers.) And that he gave the sums of money mentioned in a circular signed " John Wet. rell," in his awn name, but than the money did not ema nate from his pocket.—(Hear, hear.) He had also heard that if poor applicants approached Mr. C.'s door in Chapel-street, they were treated with contumely and insult.—(Hear, hear.) Would Mr. Cabbell repeal the Poor-law ?—(Laughter.) No, he would not: then how base it was to raise this clap-trap everywhere; it was well. known that the Tories carried that abominable measure. Would he repeal the Corn-laws, as he declareS, for cheap bread ?—(" No, I will not," from Mr. Cabell.) Then what on earth could he do but talk of our " imper tinence, God, and our souls !"—(Great laughter.) Now, with regard to the short speech of Sir J. Hamilton— (Laughter, in which the Hon. Baronet joined)—he spoke of the Battle of Waterloo and the Duke of Wel lington, and endeavoured to elevate the military glory of England. Had not Sir Benjamin Hall served his coun try manfully in Parliament for ten years ?—(Hear and cheering)—and was the gallant Napier unknown to fame? —(Much cheering.) Well, then, why seek to degrade the naval heroes of his native land, and cast rebuke, by inference, upon the wooden walls of Old England.— (Loud cries of " Hear.) " When the question was put, there was a majority against it ; but an artful Tory demanded a division, which• drove the industrious tradesmen from the room, fearful of offending their customers. The vote then passed amidst great confusion. " Electors! will,'-you return to Parliament such men— the traducers of your dearly-cherished opinions upon Re form and Reformers—tyrants who seek power in order to restrain your private opinionS, and enslave generations yet unborn ? "The above are faithful extracts from Cabbell and Ha milton's speeches at the above places, and I challenge contrAiction, disdain concealment, and subscribe ray name, "WM. CROSS. " Praed-street, June 22, 1841." —[The statement was read amidst groans, hisses, and laughter.] Mr. Smart said that if Sir James meant what he said, every one there would agree with him, "Damn the Corn-laws"—(Cheers and laughter)—but he feared that Sir James meant only "Damn those whom the Corn-laws ground to the earth. It was for the sake of that part of his countrymen, he was desirous of se curing the election of the high-minded and long-tried servants of their country, whom they were now assem bled to meet.—(Tremendous cheering.) Sir BENJAMIN HALL would not imitate the language which they had just heard, and which, unjustifiable at all times, was particularly so at the time of an election.— (Hear.) This was the first district of the borough in which he had been introduced to his constituency, and therefore he had on the present occasion paid his first respects to • them.—(Hear.) He would tell them why they were now ci.lYled together, and why the country was about to be appealed He would read the they all honoured, explanation in the words of o.74'whom and whom he would support with .last drop of his blood. —(Tremendous cheering.) That illustrL'ss lady said this day.—" The paramount importance of the tra.:!° and in dustry of the country—(Cheers)—and my anxiety' that the exigencies of the public service should be provideC. l for in the manner least burdensome to the community — (Repeated cheers)—have induced me to resort to the means which the Constitution has entrusted to me of ascertaining the sense of my people upon matters which so deeply concern their welfare. '—(Three times three rounds of most rapturous applause and cheering.) He was a friend to Monarchical Government. He was de sirous of maintaining the just prerogatives of the Crown which were not incompatible with the riats of the people.—(Cheers.) It was not necessary For Lim, on that occasion, to enter into any points of his public con duct for the future, as he was content to refer them to his conduct for the last few years.—(Cheers.) He was desirous of obtaining an extension of the suffrage, in order that all might possess their rights—(Cheers)—the ballot, that all might be able to exercise their rights— (Repeated cheers) —and of a short duration of Parlia ments, in order that there might be short and satisFactory settlement of all accounts between the representatives and the constituency—(Cheers.) His constant advocacy of the rights of the people had been the cause of the strenuous opposition which he new met with from the enemies of the people—(Cheers, and cries of "Never fear, we'll come to the rescue," and renewed cheers.) Their opponents professed now for almost the first time in their political &story , to be the friends of the labouring classes.—(Groans and laughter.) Let the labouring classes then rise up, and ask them to give an ample ex tension of the suffrage.—(Cheers.) For his part he went further for the extention of the suffrage than most of those with whom he acted in Parliament. But, nevertheless, he was called by the enemy a Whig.—(A laugh.) He could only wish that all the Whigs would go as far as he.—(Cheers.) lie believed that the electors of Marylebone would soon give him a colleague with whom he could cordially act—a man who was dis tinguished for his talent, integrity, frankness, decision of character, consistency of conduct, and splendid ser vices to his country.—(Vehement and long-continued cheering.) lie was most desirous that his Gallant Friend shohldbe returned with him, and, as that was his only desire as to the. issue of the approaching contest, he hoped that no friend of his, for the sake of placing him higher on the poll, would give him a single vote, or, as it is called, a plumper.—(Hear, hear, and a cry of " Yotexe ita houest .fellow.") was - ww.a mozaj . , • et_ rtainty of their election, and, notwithstantling_the on vaunts the their opponents, he would not but re mark up bo great difference between the Tory meetings in the rough, and those which had been held by his Gallan t Friend and himself. All the Liberal m eetings were pub.- th e Tory licly convened and open to all the electors, bbut meetings were composed of persons invited by circulars: —(Hear, hear, and laughter.) If their opponents woh3ultit venture . to call a public and open meeting , even /11 «t partsh, in which they boasted of a large ma i (Laughter, and cries of " Hear, hear") —they would tot out how much they were deceived.—(Cheers.) The g en. Baronet concluded amidst vehement applause and cheers. ' Sir CHARLES NAPIER then rose, and for some tinr ;vas not permitted to proceed, by the prolonged and `the ferous cheering with which he was hailed. ‘Vhen th greeting subsided, he said that his Hon.. Friend (Sir 13. Hall) hac!. already informed the meeting th e t her 314" jesty had ;NIA the Parliament to the right about" — (Cheers and ieughter.) She had certainly don' it ill very laconic raani:er, and told them that she did 50 ; cause they had not consulted the interests of the Pe e l ) i —(Cheers.) Everything now depended with the peop themselves.—(Cheers.) If they sent to Parnament me; who would give them cheap bread, timber, sugar, the Queen. would not bo disappointed in her appeal, and the ballot, people would net only gain t h()e immediate objects, but they would also gain the an extension of the suffrage, short Parliaments' and 3 . • more just and humane administration of the rat -113 7e —(Great cheering.) Justice also would be done . to tsel people of Ireland.—(Cheers.) He was not one o 'a w l .. to call them " aliens in blood, in language, and edi• gion.''—(Cheers.)
