We inserted, on Tuesday last, the Address of the Leeds Parliamentary Reform Association, which contained a very serious charge against the landowners. They are said to be deliberately bent on reducing the number and influence of the manufacturing population by increasing their distress. One of the reasons assigned in support of the charge, was the impression made by the "words which fell from Sir JAMES GRAHAM, the present Home Secretary, in the interview which the Anti-Corn-law deputation had with him some time ago." A member of the deputa tion, Mr. EDWARD BAINES / jun., has stepped forward to deny that the words of Sir JAMES _ GRAHAM l e ft an y suc h impression on him, and injustice to Si r J AMES —f or we like to do justice to the worst of man ki n d, being then sure that he is Properly punished or rewarded—We are about to lay before our readers the remarks of Mr. E. 8An,,,,,, , '''''') jun. Here they are : The Part of the conversation , reautrk made b • alluded to arose out of a repe a l tii c y Str James Graham, to the effect that a dent upon -Laws would make the nation depen other°rn food, which he countries for the supply of its necessary this it was replied' would be highly dangerous. To measure depend , that England was already in a great for the raw matt .n ifon other countries, and especially ent n depended upon matt .of its largest manufactures. It many for its fitted States for its cotton, on Ger ;hooel,non Italy for its silk, and n Russia for its flax. persons employed cotton manufacture I r b il " ' of in the which Sir Jame s rejoin Britain was then mentioned, on position." He a dd ed n it --- " Yes, and I don't envy your t he thought we ought not to Increase our dependence on foreign countries. The con versation being prolon t , the gentlemen forming the deputation endeavourei show that this mutual de pendence of nations upon:eaceh other was essential to the eery existence of forem ma, and that it involved no red danger, for that it would be imp oss ibl e t o p revent England from r e ceivingz:s r upplies o f corn w hi c h s h e might want load could regular caste growing pier of the corn especially if she were a . -iwi States. The ne cessity under which a country was, whose extent of soil remained the same, whilst its population rapidly in' creased, to seek foreign supplies of food, was also dwelt upon ; and it was added by one of the deputation, that if those supplies were denied, the population would have to be kept down by starvation ; in which case it was to be desired that not the children of the poor only should die, but that the rich should set the example by drown ing their own children in china basins ! Much more conversation took place,—Sir James Graham taking no very active part, but listening to the statements of the deputation, and now and then throwing in an objection or pointing out an apparent inconsistency. On their de parture, the Right Hon. Baronet said, " I do not con sider this at all a question of rent—l look upon it as a high question of national policy." Nothing was said by Sir James Graham, so far as Mr. E. Baines's recollection serves, that even looked like a wish or opinion that "the numbers and influence of the manufacturing classes should be reduced by increasing their distress." But though these remarks may exonerate Sir JAMES GRAHAM from having expressed any opinion warranting the inference which some other member of the deputation drew from it, we cannot admit, even though Mr. En- WARD BAINES, jun., asserts it, that the land owners are, therefore, wrongly charged with entertaining a deliberate design of reducing the number and influence of the manufacturing population by increasing their distress. The law of England, as a rule, infers a man's motives from the effects of his conduct ; and, trying the motives of the landlords by this rule, as their conduct inflicts great distress on the manufac turing classes, reduces their numbers, and curtails their wealth, we infer that their design is to pro duce those effects. When we couple those effects with the known and declared antipathy which the owners of land have for a long period nourished for the manufacturing classes ; when we add the defeat on the subject of Parliamentary Reform, which Manchester, Leeds, and other towns, inflicted on the aristocracy ; when we think, moreover, of the language continually used by the priesthood —the great instructors of the aristocracy—re garding, the manufacturing population, the priest hood describing them as sunk in heathenism, as no better than Pagans, and describing every accumulation of human beings as causing great immorality and great crime ; when to all these circumstances we conjoin the language continu ally used by the organs of the landowners in the press, we must affirm that the inference drawn from the effects of their conduct, according to the rules of the law of England, is corroborated by such strong circumstantial evidence that we pronounce the landlords, who make the laws, guilty of the charge brought against them by the Leeds Parliamentary Reform Association. In a Court of Law, the plea that it is impossible to believe in the wickedness of a criminal, when facts, circumstances, and witnesses prove that he has committed the crime charged, is never for one moment admitted. Neither shall we admit the plea for the landlords, that it is im possible that any large class of men in the country can be guilty of deliberate and mur derous cruelty. We are slow to suspect indivi duals; but classes, like corporations, have no conscience. They act by system, they are guided by rules ; and if the system and rules be complete contraventions of the most sublime and highly cherished principles of morality, classes and bodies of men follow out their system, obey their rules, and cast morality to the winds. We appeal to every army to testify to this truth. The trade of war, however necessary in the eyes of the politician—and we do not impugn it—is, it cannot be denied, carried on in contravention of most of the commandments. We appeal to the body of the clergy to confirm it, who, as a a priesthood, in the appropriation of great wealth to their order, continually set aside precepts of the Gospel. Each class of men has a morality of its own; and whether called fashion, or honour, or a spirit of trade, that morality guides the conduct of the class. If there be, therefore, any reason to suppose that the system on which the landed aristocracy, in respect to legislation, habi tually act—if the rules by which they are guided make them disregard the people, it is sheer se nility to exculpate them on the sentimental sup position that it shocks our judgment and our feel. ings to suppose that they would be guilty of de signedly impeding the increase of the manufac turing population in numbers and in wealth. What, then, is the system of the aristocracy, what are the rules of their conduct ? One prin ciple lies at the bottom of both—to support and maintain their class, or order, as Lord GREY expressed it, at all hazards and at whatever ex pense to others. They do but act, in following that principle, as all aristocracies, and as all classes of men, have ever acted. They have laboured and struggled for ages to keep down the democracy by laws. They regard the de mocracy, they speak of the democracy, as canaille, as unworthy beings, as destined to be the ser vants and the slaves of the aristocracy. All their laws, from the law which requires a landed property qualification to sit in Parlia ment, to the law which reserves for the land owners' exclusive use certain classes of wild ani mals, and which punishes the peasant more severely for snaring a hare than a rich man for perjury, distinctly prove that the landed gentry, in making laws to keep down the democracy, never have paid the least regard to the principles of morality. Now the manufacturing towns are the seats of democracy; they contain a new popu lation, which has thrown off the yoke of the land ed aristocracy'; and to imagine that the aristo cracy would stop short of any crime which they can perpetrate by law to keep down the demo cracy, is to run counter to the whole tide of expe rience. Mr. EDWARD BAINES, jun., may rest assured that no more injustice is done to the landowners, when they are accused of delibe rately desiring to keep down the growth of the town population, than has been done to them since the history of Europe commenced. If they have no such design, they must never less be responsible for the effects produced. They knew when they made the law that such would be the effects, or they did not. If they knew, the charge is substantiated—if they did not, how dare they inflict, from their rude igno rance, such a mass of misery on the nation ? In a legislator meddling with what he cannot com prehend, ignorance is the greatest of all crimes, for it involves them all. What is it to the people whether the wretched ignorance of the Earl of RIPON and the Duke of WELLINGTON, or a de liberate design to keep the aristocracy at the top of the tree at the expense of the democracy, were the cause of the Corn-law ? Their great sufferings, their deep distress, their almost unbearable po verty, their great mortality, are the same, whe ther the landowners acted from ignorance or design. We repeat, then, in conclusion, that N p ve ar t i h iannt ink te ,N a v r it y h Mr. MARSHALL and the Leeds landowners Reform Association, that the the democracy design e d, rn a t n o d s t n th oN m y i d s s e i s o i n g design, osbtaeldwie ence ; and, acting on that design, they have for bidden all Parliamentary inquiry into the Corn laws. They have either turned a deaf ear to the complaints of the people, or have asserted that there was no cause for them. We believe them to be guilty the more firmly, because the land. owners persist in continuing the murderous law long after it has been proved to have most mur derous effects. The Spectator defends the PEEL bribery at Tamworth by unjustly accusing th e Whigs. r Our ou otht readers will remember that the charge brought against the PEELS was t hat th ey established and maintained a school at Tamworth in which chil dren are gratuitously instructed, fed, and clothed as long as a PEEL shall represent the borough. Coupling that condition with the school, not establishing the school, we call bribery. The Spectator says the Whigs tried this trick (that is, this sort of bribery) wholesale, with 30,0001. for national education; but the Whigs, in pro posing to allot 30,0001. for that purpose, made no stipulation that the grant was to be withheld should they be turned out of office. The Spec tator, from its present great desire to defend Sir R e PEEL, dilueenati does a gross injustice to the W hi g s, w m o ti pt a t e r e t s ri theirtrick p r a cconduct by in th e p promoting education it compares Tamworth. The Spectator had before it the evidence that THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1841. this gratuitous instruction of the PEELS has been ► made to serve a political purpose. One boy was taken to task for signing a memorial displeasing to Sir ROBERT, and it is acknowledged by Sir ROBERT'S ' advocates that several dismissals from the school have ensued front that memorial. It had been stated, too, that some of the electors had felt themselves aggrieved and ashamed by the use made of the school to influence their votes ; yet, in spite of these bad effects of the PEEL bribery, the Spectator advocates it, and expresses a wish that such bribery should be tried more extensively. It would have education given to the people, as livings are given to priests, on condition that they entertain one se ries of opinions. A scheme better calculated to substitute falsehood for truth cannot be con ceived; and if the Whigs had, as the Spectator implies, acted on that principle, they would have deserved general execration. Our Contemporary seems to have grown lax in his stern morality, as he has become a Peelite in order to adapt himself to his new principles. Besides sneering at our characterising the scheme of the PEELS as bribery, he undertook to show, at considerable length, that it is of no use talk ing about the virtues of justice and humanity, and that nothing is done by the dissemination of sound principles and the spreading abroad know ledge, unless our present ignorance were incor porated, as an Act of Parliament. On the Spec tator's doctrine the whole scheme of a Church may be dispensed with, for that only preaches, at best, about the abstract virtues of justice and humanity. We were foolish enough to suppose that the dissemination of sound principles and correct knowledge amongst the people was of more importance than getting the two Houses of Parliament to pass a law. We know laws may be formed on very erroneous principles, and may be very mischievous ; but correct knowledge and sound principles never failed to bring forth good fruit. The lesson of our teachers was the reverse of that of the Spectator. They said give the people knowledge, let them be well informed, and the strongholds of corruption and tyranny will fall away as by enchantment. To have a well-informed people is, according to our Contemporary, " to have a mob col lected around some strong fortress that they would demolish, howling with rage, and shaking their hands with impotent anger, but destitute of the implements for breaking in and the skill to use them." The Spectator for gets that the whole world of politics rests on opinion, which will, when ripe, subdue landlords, as it has heretofore subdued bigots and slave owners. We side, therefore, with the Anti-Corn law League, and think it is wise to preach about the abstract virtues of justice and humanity; and have no doubt that the devoted system against which the indignation of the people can be ex cited by an appeal to these virtues, must fall whenever their indignation shall be roused. Our Contemporary says that no parley has been demanded by the Parliamentary majority. What then does his favourite's talk about mature consideration mean? Is the Spectator sensible that it is all humbug; and does it, at the same time, hold the charlatan up to public approba tion ? Was the Duke of WELLINGTON'S late re mark in the House of Lords, that he must look into the Corn-law question with new light, no advantage? Is not the Spectator in error also when it says, that not one advocate of a restrictive policy has recanted his opinions? Have there not been several instances in the ma nufacturing districts of such recantations ? Was not Sir GEORGE MURRAY one ? Was not Mr. Dawsort, at Plymouth, one ? Is not Lord LoN DONDERRY prepared to recant? At the meeting of the Blofield and Walsham Agricultural Asso ciation, recorded in the Norzoich. Mercury, we find Mr. BURROUGHES, one of the Members for Norfolk, using this language:— With regard to the Corn-laws his opinions coincided with those of the President—that this country ought to be provided with corn at the cheapest rate at which it can be produced ; but he did not think it could be pro vided with corn entirely grown in our own country now, or that it can be made to do so on the average under all circumstances. What would be done he was not pre pared to state, but he was quite sure that it was not the policy of this country to admit foreign corn, otherwise than under a moderate graduated scale. We see many symptoms, therefore, of benefits to come from preaching about the abstract vir tues of justice and humanity; though we are afraid that those who doubt the utility will not be very likely to support the doctrines. The Anti-Corn-law League has made great way in the country by such preaching; and we trust it will not give up its scheme to try for a general modification of the tariff under the leadership of the Spectator. Some of the Tory Journals express great exul tation at the termination of a meeting held at Leeds, ou yesterday week, for the purpose of promoting a union between all classes of Re formers. At this distance of time we cannot copy a full report of the proceedings, but we will give a brief outline of them, to enable our readers to judge whether the result is such as to make good men, and particularly the good men amongst the Tories, exult. The meeting was called by the Leeds Parlia mentary Reform Association, and Col. THOMPSON was invited, as possessing the confidence of both the Anti-Corn-law Repealers and of the Char tists, to negotiate the terms of a mutual under standing. A deputation from the Chartists met the Committee, for the purpose of seeing the intended Resolutions, which were as follow :- 1. That this meeting views the defective state of the representation as the source of the suffering under which the country labours. 2. That' the confiscation of the property of the indus trious classes, inflicted by the existing. Corn-laws, is the most prominent of the practical grievances arising from the actual condition of the elective franchise. 3. That this meeting invites the co-operation of all who, desiring the improvement of the representation generally, are disposed to move against this practical grievance as the means. And it particularly impresses the adviseableness of those parties, who hold different opinions on this point, taking each their several ways, without attacking or interfering with the other. The deputation intimated that the Chartists would not move any amendment to these resolu tions, but they afterwards changed their minds. The place of meeting, the large room of the Commercial Building at Leeds, was crowded to excess, and Mr. J. G. MARSHALL was in the Chair. The first resolution was unanimously carried, which can scarcely afford any reasonable ground of satisfaction to the Tories. On the second resolution being put, a Mr. JOSEPH LEES . moved, as an amendment, that the whole Charter be adopted. After several gentlemen had ad dressed the meeting, some urging the adoption of the Charter, others the abolition of the Corn laws, as the subject on which Reformers of all kinds should unite, the amendment was carried by such a mall majority, that the CHAIRMAN was obliged to request the Ayes to go on one side, and the Noes on the other, in order that he might decide. We are assured on the unques tionable authority of a gentleman present, and well qualified to judge, that the proportion of the meeting in favour of the amendment was as six to five. Six-elevenths of this numerous meeting preferred agitation for the Charter to agitation for the Corn-laws, and the other five elevenths were for Corn-law agitation. The whole meeting, though not united, was decidedly opposed to the Tories. In the course of the discussion, Mr. LEES openly avowed the object which he and his party had in view. c , We will not allow," he said, " anybody to get their rights till we have got ours." Do the good men amongst the Tories find any cause for exultation in the success of those who act on this principle? No improve ment will the Chartists allow to be made till Universal Suffrage is conceded. They are re solved to march to victory through destruction. They will not, in the words of the third resolu tion, allow other men " to take their own way," but they will attack them, and interfere with them ; and their momentary success, though it be the success of violence and anarchy, is boasted of by the Tory Journals. Their approbation will give the Chartists strength, and will, if any thing can, enable them to realise their own schemes. We will, in conclusion, take the opportunity of saying that the active part which Mr. J. G. MARSHALL takes in all these proceedings, com pletely identifies this opulent and enlightened man with those admirable papers which bear his signature, as Chairman of the Leeds Reform Association. We are glad to see that tie soul of our Navy begins to receive public attention. Timber and iron can always be, had, if there be only men to use them. Never was the material of our ship ping, we believe, in greater readiness for any con tingency, and nothing is wanted but hardy hands and willing hearts to serve her MAJESTY. To get them, we must urge on the public the pro priety of doing., justice to the seamen. Their services must be bought at their worth and price in the market, like the services of any other class. of men. Shall the owner of a log, however much the country might require timber, be secure that not au inch of wood will be taken from him, but by contract, and at a fair price, and shall the owner of a sea man's skill have no security that the whole of his possessions—that he himself; shall not' be taken for the use of the public ? That security is yet wanting to induce men to become seamen, as they will willingly become when they can, like the owners of timber, be sure that they will be allowed to enjoy their property. Once that security shall be bestowed, our country will have quite as many seamen as it requires. Whatever tends to do them justice shall have our warmest support; and we cannot avoid, there fore, expressing our approbation of the order of the Admiralty recently issued, which grants the seamen their pensions when serving on board her MAJESTY'S ships. These are the rewards of past services, and those who again serve are entitled to the same pay as the other men filling the same station. If they are not to receive pay in addition to their pensions, none of them will serve in the navy. They will enter the merchant service, they will engage in other occupations, and make what they can by their industry in addition to their pensions. It is just and wise, therefore, to allow them to keep their pensions in addition to their pay, when they re-enter the Navy. ESPARTERO'S proclamation to the people of Spain, announcing his determination to proceed in person against the Christino insurgents in the Northern Provinces, will be found in another part of The Sun. We rejoice to find that the REGENT is resolved to make Europe acquainted with the names of the real instigators of the mur derous attack on the Royal palace. Not that we are ignorant who they are, or have allowed our readers to remain so; but an official announcement made by the Spa nish Government would overwhelm them with the obloquy of every established Govern ment in the world. The names of Louis PHI LIPPE and CHRISTINA MUNOZ will figure very dis creditably at the head of a list of the instigators of rebellion and Murder in Spain. " The gene rous men of all nations," says the REGENT, "who are interested in the cause of liberty, which we defend, will demand a strict account of the instigators and perpetrators of an attack in which the descendants of an hundred Kings might have perished. The world shall be made acquainted with the names of the traitors, no matter what cloak may cover them. The time for respect, which has been requited with the blackest ingratitude, shall cease. The salva tion of Spain requires that the veil be withdrawn, and the whole truth appear, however terrible it be." We shall await with impatience the fulfilment of this pledge. The time has, indeed, come for unmasking the treasons of the ex-Regent and her accomplices. Never did a generous people suffer more from the ingratitude and perfidy of a worthless woman than have the people of Spain from the infamous conduct of CHRISTINA MuNoz. The Espectaclor, a Madrid Paper, states, truly, that as Regent of the Kingdom and guardian of her daughter, she saved, inde pendently of large bribes, during the seven years of her administration, a sum equal to four millions and a half sterling. After her departure from the Palace a number of the crown jewels were found missing, as well as large quantities of gold plate, which it is needless to observe, have not been recovered. "If these treasures," says the Espeetudor, " were re tained by CHRISTINA and expended in quiet life, and she left in repose, the Spaniards, who have sacrificed themselves to enrich her, we, and all our countrymen, would consider them well employed. But when they they are used for the purpose of kindling discord and civil war, which will occasion the shedding of torrents of Spanish blood, and consummate the ruin of the country, we cannot help feeling and denouncing such conduct as cruel in the extreme." We trust the day of reckoning is at hand, which shall consign CHRISTINA MuNoz and her partizans, to the contempt and scorn of Europe. Loaded with the hatred of a gallant nation, whose generosity she so shamefully abused,CHRIsTINA MUN oz will pass the remainder of a disgraceful life exiled from the society, and cut off from the sympathy, of all great and good men. Her solitude will be haunted with visions of the gallant but misguided victims of her ambition and avarice. The bloody shroud of the chivalrous DIEGO LEON will some times disturb her slumbers; for though she can bid defiance to the power of men, neither wealth, security, nor the absolution of a ghostly con fessor can stifle the voice of conscience. The Paris Journals of Sunday have all been received. Notwithstanding the disgrace ful part taken by France in the insurrec tion in Spain, the last courier from Madrid brought from the REGENT large remittances for the payment of the arrears due to the French Auxiliary Legion. This was judicious on the part of ESI'ARTERO, who by this act has enlisted the sympathies of all honest men in France in his favour. A telegraphic despatch from Bayonne, dated the 2:2d instant, states that General O'DONNELL was then on the French frontier, demanding permission to cross it, at the head of it,ooo rebels. On the following day, the subjoined despatch was forwarded to the French Government " Bayonne, Oct. 23. " THE SUE-PREFECT TO THE lIINISTEIL OF THE iwrzitroa " O'Donnell arrived yesterday at two o'clock, at Urdax, with about 2,500 men. Generals Ortigosa and Jauregny (El Pastor) are with him. Count Monterron, and a few Members of the Provincial Deputation, also entered France yesterday." M. Merentier, principal of the mercantile firm of Me rentier and C0.,-of Marseilles, Paris, and London, who, after the recent' failure of their house, absconded, was arrested in Paris on Friday last in an obscure lodging, which he had taken in a false name. In endeavouring to escape by the window, the wretched man fell and broke his thigh. The Gazette de France of Thursday evening, says : " A person who comes from Saragossa informs us that the Spanish Government . has decreed a levy of 150,000 men ; viz., 100,000 of the class of 1841, and 50,000 of the class of 18.10. It is said that the execution of this measure is already commenced in Arragon. If this statement is correct, it may be conceived what new derangement' it will cause in the finances of Spain, at a moment when the Treasury, in the utmost need, seeks to introduce retrenchment in the expendi ture. Spain, too, will not suffer alone, from the facilities which the authors of the attempt have found in the con nivance, or if you will, in the blindness of the French authorities, who suffered this movement to be organised under their own eyes. It is said that on learning the measures taken by Espartero, to send an army to the Northern provinces of Spain, and perhaps to keep it there, when he sees the encouragement which the insur rection meets with in organizing itself in our territory, our Cabinet has resolved to assemble a corps at Ba yonne, and another at Perpignan, besides a reserve at 'Toulouse. _ _ _ " All these cannot be done without additional votes of credit, and the Chamber, before which the question must come, will perhaps think fit to penetrate to the bottom of the affair. It would be a fitting occasion to exercise the right o f i nqu i r y, in order to know the na ture of tho enco uragemen t given to this enterprise, which has so mise ra bly failed ; but which will , never theless, lead to deplorable and expensive consequences. " It seems that in,attacking the Palace at Madrid, the conspirators followed a programme which was not a mystery to everybody. The Gazette of Genoa, giving, on the 13th, news from Barcelona, brought by the Phoceen which left that port on the 9th, said, " At Madrid the business of the insurgents will be to carry off the two Princesses, for whose two lives O'Donnell has manifested some fears." A. private letter from Toulon, of the 9th, says that Rear• Admiral Casey has received orders by the tele graph to prepare to put to sea with four ships of the line. It is said that this division is to go to the coast of Spain.—Commerce. The Ministry continues to dream about iron railways. It appears that it seriously intends to cover France with them ; this proves that people may seriously intend the greatest follies. To undertake at once 1,000 or 4,000 leagues of iron railway at fifteen hundred thousand francs per league, without delaying the fortifications of Paris, and without reducing the standing army, while there is a deficit of a thousand millions, when no more than a credit of 150 millions could be asked for, when a re assessment attempted to increase the revenue has every where excited the opposition of the people, and could be continued only for form's sake ; all this is so far remote from possibility and reality, that a Government which entertains such projects is quite oqt of the region of real business.—Gazette de France. _ _ The Plwre des Pyrenees (Bayonne) of the 2Otb pub lishes in a supplement the following news : " We received yesterday very important news from the Biscayan provinces. " The insurrection is quelled. The approaching arrival of General Roth!, the" 'presence of Zurbano almost at the gates of Vittoria, had thrown the inha bitants of the city into consternation. The Ayunta miento met, in which the Marquis D'Alameda, Deputy- General of the Province, presided ; it was decided that Vittoria should not make any defence. " The Militia and the troops at the garrison pro claimed the counter revolution. " Montes D'Oca, the Marquis D'Alameda, Brigadier- General Echaline, Colonel Leiba, and some other leading persons, immediately left the city and proceeded to Ber gone, where Montes D'Oca was arrested. The others reached Metrico, where they embarked for France and arrived at Bayonne this morning."—Constitutionnel. The 7'oulonnais, of the 24th, says, " The steamer which should bring the mail from Africa, has not yet arrived in the road. . " It is supposed that this packet, being surprised at sea by the storm which prevailed last week, has been damaged, and that it was unable to continue its voyage. " This delay leaves us in the greatest uncertainty re specting the expedition of Medeah, which must now be euded.—Commerce. BOURSE—PARIS, SATURDAY, OCT. 23. iirst Highest Lowest Last Price Price.

The New Cabinet at Washington has been completed. The following are the names and offices of the Members : Doniel Webster, of Mass., Secretary of State. Walter Forward, of Pa., Secretary of the Treasury. Abel P. Upshur, of Va., Secretary of the Nary. John C. Spencer, of N.Y., Secretary of War. Hugh Legare, of S. C., Attorney-General: Charles A. Wickliffe, of Ky., Postmaster-General. The Regent of Spain, Espartero, has issued a procla mation, dated the 18th inst., announcing his immediate departure from the Spanish capital, to quell in person the insurrection in the northern provinces. He consigns the protection of the young Queen to the loyalty and valour of the Nati - inal Guards of Madrid. General O'Donnell has been compelled to take refuge in France, accompanied by about 2,500 i nsurgen t s , in cluding Generals Ortigosa and Jaureguy (El Pastor.) Lord Ponsonby and Reschid Pasha, late Grand Vizier of Turkey, and now Ambassador to Fiance, are per forming quarantine at Malta. The Toulonnais of the 21st instant announces that Admiral Casy had been ordered to hold himself in readi ness to put to sea. On the morning of the 20th the Admiral hoisted his flag on the Suffren, which ship and the Marengo, Jupiter, and Scipion, were expected to sail on the 22d. The Jena and Neptune, which formed part of the division, would follow the Admiral immediately on the return of the Neptune, which was to leave Tunis on the 13th for France. The destination of this arma ment gave rise to much conjecture. It was rumoured in Paris on Sunday that Espartero had signed the treaty of commerce with Great Britain, and that the import duties on British goods were to be reduced 20 per cent. generally; that the Spanish Ambassa dor in Paris had called for his passports, and that a French corps of army of 45,000 men was on the point of being concentrated along the Pyrenean frontier. PUBLIC OPINION. Earl de Grey's replies to the congratulatory addresses of the Dublin Corporation, and of Trinity College, fur nish the Herald with the subject of a leading article, in the course of which it observes :—" It will be Earl De Grey's duty, as it will be his pleasure, to render Dublin attractive to the nobility and gentry of Ireland, to make the metropolis of the island again the residence, for a season of each year, of its wealth, its education, and its aristocracy, and to convert his Court into a school where true patriotism may be taught, and whence a national enthusiasm for the development of the great re sources of the country may be diffused throughout the length and breadth of the land. No man can better in struct Irish landlords in the delights of a residence on their own estates, in the mental joy consequent on the appearance of well cultivated farms and a contented and prosperous tenantry, and in the satisfaction of erecting a residence on patrimonial lands occupied by grateful dependants."—There is much good sense in these re marks of the Herald. By encouraging the residence of the great Irish landlords on their estates, and dis couraging the prevalent evil of absenteeism by every means in his power, Lord De Grey will be taking the surest steps to promote the welfare, too long neglected, of the Sister Country. It is thus, too, he will best diminish the popular cry for Repeal, which will necessarily fall to the ground the instant confidence and prosperity give indications of taking up their abode in Ireland. On the important question of the present distressed state of the country, the Chronicle says:—." Appeals for public charity, bankruptcies multiplying, incendiary fires beginning,bread-corn rising, and aggravated distress rapidly extending amongst multitudes ; such are the fearful symptoms of what the condition of the country will be through the coming winter. What, then, is the first duty of every honest and good man ? Plainly, to turn his best attention to the means of averting im pending evil, and of mitigating actual distress. This is not a state of things to slumber upon. There is much in it to reach the most callous feeling. There is also something in it which might startle into thoughtfulness the most obdurate selfism, if not absolutely infa tuated. What can be done ?"fhat is the one great question on which every man should consult his neighbour; or, what is better, task his own mind for a reply. It is no mere mathematical problem, for the solution of which the world may. wait. The question urges, from day to day. Already thousands are half-famished, and disease stalks abroad. What can be done ? The public mind demands an answer."— And the only answer that Ministers deign to give to this question of questions—the only notice they see fit to take of it is—an exhortation to the people to wait coolly and patiently, till they are at leisure to take their case into consideration ! Not a word of a present remedy— scarcely even a promise of a future one ! No, they must wait till next February ; they must be content to starve on throughout the long, dreary winter months, at the end of which time those who may happen to be alive, and have not been carried out on four rough boards from the workhouse, and flung like dogs into their grave, will have their situation inquired into, with a view at some time or other to have that situation remedied. Eels, said the old fish-woman, are used to be skinned, and think nothing of it. The people, say Ministers, are used to be starved, and think nothing of it—consequently they can afford to wait our time. The Post says:—" It cannot be supposed that a Go vernment, which is no more than barely in office, should have, either by its acts or its omissions, already affected the condition of the great mass of the people. The cir cumstances in their condition which "are complained of are not of the growth of yesterday. It is quite true that at any time these ten years the great mass of the fixed wealth of the country, and a large preponderance of the manual labouring power of the country, were closely con nected with the land—that they, in short, formed • the land ed interest;' but it is not true that the lauded interest hold the governing power in this country during the period specified, though it did .hold a very important check and control over the governing power."—lt was not ex pected that the Tories, immediately on taking office, should have been able to remedy the distresses of the country; what was expected from them was, that they should have betrayed an honest disposition to investigate, with a view to remedying, those. distresses. But this they have not done. On the contrary, they have dis played the most remarkable apathy, on every point, ex cept that of ventilating the House of Commons. The following is from the Times :—" So numerous are the verdicts of death from want of the common necessaries of life' returned by coroners' juries, that Mr. Assistant Poor-law Commissioner Mott, when engaged in the task of vindicating from misrepresentation the guardians of the Bolton Union, could not refrain from travelling into a long digression, in order to account for this unpleasant phenomenon. •Itisto be lamented,' says he in his report, that verdicts should be given implying such an awful neglect of duty as that of allow ing a fellow-creature to die of want without the most satisfactory corroborative evidence.' Far more is it to be lamented, say we, that restrictions involving such awful consequences sfiould be imposed on the adminis tration of the English Poor-law, against the deliberate sense of the English people." In an article on American affairs, the Ipswich Express remarks as follows:—" Ministers having left our domes-4 tic affairs to the chapter of accidents, we are for the pre •sent chiefly indebted to Courts in other countries for in dications of the change which has taken place in our own. War with the United States forms the unceasing theme with the Ministerial journals, and sundry vitupe-' rative comments invariably accompany every statement of border excitement on the Canadian frontier. There may or may not be in this a design to prepare the public mind of this country for an American war; but it is, at all events, too likely to pave the way for such a calamity." The following is from an article on Toryism in the Liverpool Albion :—" The people are not likely to tole rate the permanent stability of a Government whose avowed object is to restrict commerce and keep up the . price of food, and who have entered upon their career by adding largely to the public debt under which the country was already bowed to the very (lust." VIONEY-TIZADE-CONIIViER.CE. In the neighbourhood of Ingatestone, Essex, upwards of 300 railway labourers, in consequence of the bad weather, have been for some time past out of work, and are in great distress. All the corn grown on the island of Jersey is sent to England free of duty, and the Jersey people import from France and the Baltic. The high duty in Eng land has made it more profitable to cultivate corn. The orchards arc fast disappearing, and the parsons are petitioning the States for a fixed salary, as the livings are so reduced in value it is hardly worth while for any man of edncation to accept them. A ship is now delivering from the Havannah, sugar which will be sold to the Jersey public at 31d. per pound. of two ounces more than the English. The Fatglish shilling goes for one penny more. The principle of free-trade is fully carried out there, and the Jersey people go to the cheapest market regardless of free or slave labour. Such is the stock of ore in some of the iron -works, says the Welshman, that only a certain number of trams are allowed daily to the workmen ; this, in addition to the late reductions of wages, makes the circumstances of our workmen very distressing. The line of the Manchester and Sheffield Railway ex tending from Manchester to Godley, a distance of from eight to nine miles, will be opened in the course of a few weeks. AGR.XCITLTUR.&L. . _ It is stated, on the best authority, that the Irish pea santry will this year be exposed to a great deficiency in the potato crop, and it is remarkble that the failure of the crop is greatest upon rich and heavy soils, such as the south-western parts of the county of Tipperary, while the light, sandy soils alone produce fairly. STATISTICS. The official returns of the St. Clements Dane's Sav ings' Bank from November last up to the 10th of Octo ber, state the receipts of depositors to have been upwards of 40,100 L, whilst the repayments being only 27,6001. have left a clear balance of 12,5001 ., which has been in vested in Government securities. }MEC VIONEEIZING.
