KESHEN , onquestionahly one of the ablest statesmen ;q China, and his loss will yet be severely felt barbarian Monarch, by whose commands 4;• 11 - . ls so ignominiously put to death. He was '.tern► and educated at the Court of Pekin, where use F :weeded.' all his contemporaries in an inti- ;Th acquaintance with all the affairs - of the inter ' • dministration, civil and military, and ecclesi :•'Ll. He was of a. restless and intriguing , dispo • erA, and by constantly f2sreting out abuses, - 147.1.1. he set forth in memorials to be laid at the of e EMPEROR, he made himself many i!ov,':rft-,1 enemies. But his great talents and c7itrao , :dinary sagacity rendered his enemies powerless so long as .he was within ear shot. of the Court. It was only when at a distance that he declined 'in the Impe rial favour, and previously to . his last fa tal tall he was several times fined, and ever, publicly censured in.. the Pehia Gazette. But he never failed indefend himself with abi lity, and in the ,end , with success; and as he was a good General,. Ari able financier, without ever baying 'served in these departments, his counsels - were always of the greatest service to the Government. As he saw from the commencement of the quarrel with England that the Cel'estials were no match in war for the con querors of India, he did all that he could to coon terixt the mischievously hostile policy Of his rredecessor, the 1 igfi Connnissioner Liiv. Ap pointed to succeed. him, he tried to gain by nego cia tion what lie could not achieve by force ; but, u n fortunately tbr himself,.his moderate and saga ,coos views were regarded at Pekin as the result u f cowardice. The barbarian pride of the Em r,t- Bolt and the Court , was wounded; K Esii . EN w as denounced as a traitor, and LIN, with his e ther enemies, fearing the result of his appearance I , e f o re the EMPEROR, procured the tracing of the lines with the vermillion pencil, which c i eeme d the ablest statesman in the Celestial EraPirc to be cut asunder through the middle! Many o f the supporters of the late Cabinet are the new Ministry a fair t r i a l. ( ..k l i iT v og we ed k t i o iol gi v Ie not, i except that Sir ROBERT PEE': Iced the po litical com p ass so often that no IpiaeL:ll-seems sure ai to the course ivhich he may take upon the C o ra laws, or any other of the ;resit questions which 'now agitate the country. But th e slippery and unscrupulous Baronet is ncitlier the Cabinet nor the uncontrollable direc tor of its councils. Notwithstanding his late boast in the House of Commons, that he would aiot suffer hitnself to be made the scape•goat of the ultra-Tories, it requires little sagacity to pre dict, that surrounded and hedged in as he is by such men as STANLEY and GRAHAM, and the Duke of BUCKINGHAM, he will be compelled to stand sponsor for any policy that they are unani mous in adopting. With the threat of the Duke of RICHMOND ringing in his ears, that the party who have given him'a majority will desert him if i abandon the Corn-laws, it is idle to expect. that Sir ROBERT PEEL will adopt the orily i true eilicient remedy for the public distress, which coutdsts in the repeal of all taxes upon the int lortation . of food. To divert public attention . . he' will appoint a Committee of Inquiry, consisting,' or course, of men enriched by the bread -tax sc Mme variation will be made in the sliding scale ; bflt. the people may depend upon it that nothing be done which will be of the least benefit to them. The object of the Tories and of PEEL to 'humbug them. The new Ministers, With awful length &f face and solemnity of voice, will crave time for consideration and inquiry , they will deprecate . all precipitancy in matters closely . v3ounected. with great national interests ;. but, ess forced to it by some unexpected .pressure witliont, they will do nothing to fill the bellies of the hungry with cheap food. Whentnen 'are resolved to see difficulties in their way, and to be impeded at every step by the Scruples of a tender conscience, it is astonishing at how slow a pace they will contrive to travel. The Tory Cabinet is exactly in this position. The Tories dare not avow their predilection for a retrograde course, and to avoid as much as possible anything like an onward movement they affect a wonder ful solicitude for a grave and deliberate exami nation, before _stirring., of every object which the most timid imagination could regard as an obstacle. Of lip Sympathy for the people there mill be no lack on the part of Tory statesmen, but while there is a political agitator at whose door to lay the blame of the misery of the peo ple, not a. syllable will be said about the im mense share the crimes and avarice of the landed aristocracy have had in reducing them to the ita.te of wretchedness in which we find them. We have no confidence whatever in Sir ROBERT PEEL. We have, if possible, still less confidence in the men by whom he is sur rounded in the Cabinet. We never wholly trusted the Whigs ; we wholly and absolutely distrust the Tories. We know well what we have to expect from the arrogance of Lord STANLEY; from the rankling apostacy of Sir' JAMES GRA HAM , eager to revenge himself upon the country for the scorn which it has heaped upon him ; from the pig-headed selfishness of the Corn-law Duke of BUCXINGH AM ; and from the unprincipled, buccaneering, political parti zanship of Lord LYNDHURST. As well might the people expect the Ethiop to change his skin, or the leopard his spots, as these men to set seriously about relieving the distresses of the working classes. They never intended any such thing. Their battles with the Whigs were battles for place and for power. Their darling object was office, not the means of benefiting their country by any large or improved scale of legislation or administration. So little, in reality , did they see wrong in the conduct of the Whigs, that when they drove them from office they stopped at the door to compliment them on the politeness of their demeanour, their untiring in dustry, and the sincere uprightness of their in tentions ! It was a spectacle for men • and angels, to see men "who, for ten years, had represented the late Cabinet as composed of traitors to . their country and its So vereign, starting to their feet, ready with outstretched arms to embrace them, and to proclaim their virtues to the word, the moment it was announced that they had made up their minds to give up the spoils of victory to their opponents. When the Treasury bench was gained, the Tories were satisfied. They even talked of an oblivion of all old grudges, as if there was no People out bf doors who had the least con ::ern in the arrangements made by Whigs and Tories in the House of Commons. In such men neither The Sun, nor the working classes of this country, can have*the shadow of confidence. Were Sir ROBERT PEEL'S power in the Cabinet absolute, we might expect something, for the Right Hon. Baronet never supported the Corn laws with half the zeal he displayed in resisting Catholic emancipation, and yet, in a few months, he was brought round to carry that measure. Sir RonEnes only political principle through life has been expediency, and were the popular outcry to render it expedient to abolish the Corn laws, he would - be the first to propose their abo lition, were he :not hound hand and fuuf to the agricultural dray driven by the Duke of BUCK INGHAM. As he is now situated, he can do nothing but obey the mandates of the thick skulled landed aristocracy, whose dupe and slave he is. The bulk of the people, who would not stir a step to save the Whigs, abhor the Tories. None of the rival factions possess their confidence. They must now look to themselves, and among themselves, for men upon whose abilities and honesty they can rely with some degree of con fidence. On Saturday the Bishop of LONDON consecrated the City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery at Mile-end. An entertainment followed the consecration service, • at which the Right Rev. Prelate made a short speech, in which lie lauded cemeteries at a distance from large towns as favourable both to public health and public decency. The good Prelate was not always so favourable to cemeteries, and he had the candour to state his objections fairly to the company. He feared they might withhold something from the coffers of the Church. His regard for public health and public decency was not so strong as his attachment to burial fees, which jingle so musically in the pockets of the priests. But an Act of Parliament has secured their fees to the priests, and now the Bishop of. LONDON is as willing as anybody to promote the health and decency of the community. After this ac knowledgment it would be exceedingly un fair to tax the Right Reverend Prelate with hypocrisy. He is quite willing to dispense with the reading of the burial service provided the fees are paid. His Lord ship has no scruples about granting a dispensa tion to the clergy to omit .a part of their duty, Provided their congregations are particular in leaving no part of the established rate of fees unpaid. Public health and public decency are good things in their way, but they are subordi nate to the vested interest which the priest has in the rotting remains of a defunct member of the human family ! Death, which extinguishes all passions, and dissolves every other terrestrial tie, does not relieve us from the taxation claims of the priesthood—from claims which even • a Prelate avows to have outweighed in his mind .a regard for the health and decency of this vast metropolis. The Paris Journals of Friday and Saturday have all reached us. Notwithstanding the great outcry which they all made against Lord PAL MERSTON and the Whig Ministry, so far as we can gather from them, they are still worse dissa tisfied with their Tory successors. The C'ourrier Francais, the National, the Siecle, and the Presse, speak most disparingly of the composi tion of the'PEiL Cabinet. • The Constitutionnel has the following remarks on the negotiations for commercial 'relations be tween France and Belgium:— The commercial negotiations with Belgium have for some days past attracted the serious attention of the Council of Ministers. The question of the suppression of the custom-houses being, fel/act—impracticable, is wholly abandoned. The, object al ow m view is a new treaty of commerce upon very wide, bases, with modifications of our tariffs, and a gre a t . facility for the introduction into France of the various manufactures of Belgium, such as woollens, carpets, iron, coal, &c. The propositions of .the Belgian Govern. meat have given rise to serious objections in the Council. The compensations offered by it for the concessions re quired, are chiefly the reduction of the Belgian tariff as regards our wines and spirits. The Belgian propositions have their partisans in the Cabinet who welcome them as an opening to more intimate relations between the two countries ; but we know also tkat they have been strongly resisted by some of the Ministers who are im pressed with a sense of the opposition which they would experience in the Chambers, and the injury w t hich, if ac ceded to, they would bring upon France. We are as sured that the deliberations on this subject are indefi nitely adjourned, and the Cabinet intends to call upon se veral Chambers of ComMerce for information, which is become indispensable, on account of the turn which the negotiations have taken." An amusing anecdote is current in Paris, as to the King of Prussia's reception of M. Thiers. After the in terview of the French statesman with the German Mo 'larch had been spent on topics of art and general con versation, M. Thiers alluded to politics, when the King of Prussia observed that his political maxim was that of M. Guizot, La Paix partout, et tourjours—"peace every where: and always —and that he was not ashamed of it- The magistracy of Hanover have instituted a prosecu tion against an innkeeper at Hertzberg for, defaming the memory of the late Queen. Extract of a letter from Tceplitz, 25th ult., in the having"Te in Duchesser suite o t u h l e er rie arrivedDowager h A e u r g e sb o u n ry t G he az . e l t s te th : -- , Duchess de Blacas, and Count Stanislas de Blacas, who served in: the army of Don Carlos. All the elite of the society here have been to pay their respects to her Royal Highness. The :Dowager Princess of ReuSs Graetz, who, before her marriage, was a Princess de Rolifm, Prince Radziwil, the Count tie Fiquelmont, and his fu ture son-iu-law, Prince de Clary, the proprietor of Tceplitz, went on the eve. of the feast of Saint Louis toto compliment the Duchess d'Angoulcue. Prince Felix Lichnowski has passed an evening with the Princess, whose journey hither is considered as a proof of the sad:- • factory condition of the Duke de Bordeaux. The following account of a valuable and curious dis covery at Trieste appears in the Eco du Monde Savant: .--‘ The supply of water to Trieste being frequently un equal to the wants of the inhabitants, and there being no source of importance excepting a little river, the Recce, which loses itself in . the mountains and re-appears only at a considerable distance, a German engineer, M. Lind ler, hoping to give to this river a direction favourable to Trieste, resolved to explore its course. After penetrat- The through the cavities of the mountain without success, The proceeded to break openings, and at length came upon a cavity, into which he had himself lowered hse• ropes. It is an immense grotto, 160 feet in height, 2,350 feet in length, and through it the river in question flows over a bed of sand. With a small expense, this water can be brought by aqueduct into Trieste." The Revue Orientals has a leter from the Cretan Committee at Athens, from which we make the annexed extract :—" It is true that the Sphakiotes, whether they had been betrayed, or whether they saw• that it was im possible to save their kunilies if they fell, left open * ,s, free passage to their enemies. Still the provinces of Malevison, Messara, aDd Melopotamo, hold out. The brave General B. Chali's, having collected some troops, is determined to meet his assailants. Only a few of: the Sphakiotes have given up their arms. the rest keeping them until reinforcements come to enable them to renew the struggle. - The provisional Government, too weak and incapable to brave the danger, has given way to a military goveimment, witich has been sanctioned by the suffrages of the armed force, and is more suited to con tend with the ditgenhies by which the country is sur rounded. A flotilla was indispensable ; and there .has • been formed one as large as the means at our command permitted." A few days ago a. fire broke out in the forest of Po laison, near Draguignan, which burnt down the wood standing on 400 hectares (the hectare is equal to about 2i English acres) of Royal forest,, and from 200 to 30.0 • hectares of private property. On the same day a fire broke out in a wood belonging to a rick landholder near Frejus. It was still 'burning on the 20th ult. These fires are supposed to have been the work of incendiaries. Thy manufactory of M. Morel Porte, in the centre of Bernay, near Rouen, took fire early on Sunday morning, ' and burnt wish such violence that the whole of the build ino•b and its contents were consumed, leaving only the walls. Nothing but the exertions of the firemen and the • absence of wind, saved the town from extensive devasta tion, as the factory was surrounded by numerous wooden houses. •. The Lyons papers state that the man Collot, who has just been condemned to death for murdering his uncle, at that place, is a descendant of the infamoniZollot d'Her bois, of revolutionary notoriety. M. Tiran, member of the Society Vf, Antiqiiaries of France, has been sent into Spain by the Minister of Pub lic Instruction, to collect rare books and MSS. for the Public Libraries of France. " The Spanish .Ambassador," says the Toulonnais," is stated to have detained at Mahon the Victorieuse cor vette until France has paid a sum of 10.000 E, the esti mated charges for quarantine expenses. The captain of the Victorieuse has been warned that, if he attempts to sail before this demand is settled, the corvette will be fired on." M. Lenormand, the ex-Commissary of police, arrived at Toulouse on Wednesday morning, and was immedi ately lodged in the prison of the Senechal. The three veterinary schools. of Alfort, Lyons, and Toulouse, at which there are 600 students, cost the Go vernment 492,2001. per annum, or, upon the average, 820 f. for each student. The average number of horses kept in them is 1,332,—viz.: 838 stallions, 127 mares, 212 colts, 99 fillies, and 56 draft-horses. The expenses amount to 1,921,900 f. In the sheep-farms at Rambouillet. Perpignan, and Lahayevaux, there are . 1,500 animals, the keep of which, all expenses included, amounts to 116,000 f. a-year. The gallery of the Palais Royal, which contains the series of historical pictures, representing the various scenes of which that edifice has been the theatre, is about to have added to it two more paintings—one repre senting the reception by the Royal Family of France of Queen Maria Christina ; and the other the signing, by her Spanish Majesty, of her Protest against the Deorees of the Cortes, which deprived her ef her rights as Guardian of Queen Isabella. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, according to the Univers, has remitted to the Superior of the Sisters of Charity, at Smyrna, 3,000 f. towards the relief of the sufferers by the late fire there. The Moniteur of the 4th of September has no official part. We find the following account in the Emancipation of Toulouse of the Ist of September : " M Lenormand, our late Principal (Commissary, whom we have mentioned as being implicated in the troubles of Toulouse, arrived this morning by the dili- gence from Paris, accompanied by two police officers, who did not quit hie: for a moment. After having alighted at the Capont Hotel, he was put into a hackney coach, still attended by two police officers, and conveyed to the prison of the Senechal. '—Le Constitutionntl. The Mentor packet, which arrived at Marseilles on the 30th of August, brought the Moniteur Ottomen of the 16th, the Journal de Smyrna of the 19th, and the Im partial, a new journal in the French language, of the 19th. The accounts from Constantinople are not very interesting. Lord Ponsonby had lately a long conference with Hi flint Pacha ; but nothing has transpired with respect to the subject of their interview. Great change will take place in a few months in the principal legation. Lord Ponsonby, it is said, is making preparations for his departure, and though nothing an nounces his recal, it is affirmed that he has expresed his intention not to return to Constantinople. It is supposed that he will be succeeded by Mr. Charles Begot. Count Pontois expects with.every courier leave of ab sence to return to France, fir which he has applied to his Court. It is affirmed that he, too, when he has once gone away, will do all that depends on him not to return to the Levant ; and, in this case, it is thought that M. Bois-le-Compte will succeed him. Lastly, Count Konigsmark, the Russian Ambassador, having obtained leave of absence, will make use of it at the beginning of October.—Le Commerce. An enormous skate, accordinc , to the Brussels jour nals, was sold on Monday in the fishmarket at Ghent, measuring 6 feet square, and weighing 1751b5. The Emancipation of Toulouse mentions that last week the receipts of the Savings' Bank there were 24,183 francs, and the disbursements 158,609 francs, thus show ing the severe distress,.and perhaps distrust, which con tinues to prevail there. The Marquis of Northampton has arrived at the Hotel Bristol, place Vendome. The Chevalier Peruzzi, Tuscan Minister, has left Paris for Florence, and during his absence the Chevalier Bar gagli replaces him as Charge d'Affaires. The Moniteur Parisien says:—" The conferences be tween the Belgian Commissioners and the French Go vernment for a treaty of commerce will commence in a few days. It will be remembered that last year, in the negotiations for a treaty of commerce with England, Commissioners were appointed by the French Govern ment, and much time was bestowed without any result. On the present occasion, in order to prevent delay, and that difficulties may be promptly removed, three of the Ministers, Messrs. Guizot, Humann, and Cunin Gridaine, will treat directly with the Belgian Commissioners." Mlle. deDietz has commenced her tour under the most favourable and distinguished auspices. When at Laval she received a most gracious invitation from the Queen to present herself at Eu, and display her talents before the Royal Family. This flattering invitation was ac cepted with the feelings our admired pianist is known to possess, and on the 28th ult. she executed several pieces before her Majesty, and the rest of the Royal Family, whose praises were great, rendered still more valuable by their own acknowledged taste and science. The Queen, in token of her own and the general satisfaction, presented the fair artist with a splendid gold neck-chain enriched with pearls and diamonds. A letter from Dunkirk, 29th ult., says:—" This morn ing, at eleven, a fire broke out in the warehouses of M. sHubert, which contained more than 150 pipes of spirits of full strength. Not only are these warehouses burn ing, but three neighbouring houses are entirely con sumed ; and, in onier to prevent the extension of-the ca lamity, other houses have been pulled down."—A letter from Lille of the next day gives the following later par ticulars Seven houses became a prey to the flames. Amongst the merchandise in store was a large quantity of spirituous liquors, whiclutSided to the intensity of the fire. The loss is estimated at 150,000 f. in buildings, 50,000 f: in furniture, and 200,000 f. in merchandise." " Considerable curiosity was excited the day before yesterday," says the Moniteur Parisien, "by the appear ance of four persons, the father, the. mother, a child of five or six years of. age, and a female, apparently a ser vant, who were all walking in the middle of the river, between the bridges of St. Cloud and Asnieres, with the • water up to the chest. They wore a sort of bathing dress, but. their mode of walking was as if they were performing a gymnastic exercise. When asked by the spectators what they were doing, they made no reply, but, placing their arms across their breasts, walked on." The King of Wurtemberg returned on the 27th ult. to Stuttgardt. In passing through Graetz, in Styria, his Majesty had an interview with the Emperor of Austria. A' Berlin correspondent writes that, at a late review by the King of Prussia, his Majesty was much annoyed by observing many of the spectators wearing enormously large beards, and turning to one of the hirsute gentle men, he said with a significent gesture Pray, Sir, go and get yourself shaved, for here you run great risk of having your beard singed." Prince Odescalchi, who, three years ago, renounced the purple of his Cardinalate, and retired into the Je suit's College at Modena, died there on the 17th ult., at the comparatively early age of 55. The Augsbupy Gazette states that the Pope, according to a letter from Rome, is about to perform a long-in tended visit of devotion to the shrine of the Virgin of Loretta, which circumstances h ive hitherto prevented. His Holiness is expected to leave Rome on the 9th inst., and, on his retuitt to visit the Sanctuary of Fabrino, in which are deposited the relics of Saint Romuald, patri arch of the Camaldules, and the church of Our Lady of the Angels, which owes its restoration to the present Pontiff.

" Who runs may read." rouziGN. This news from France tnis morning is not important. The Courrier Francais' presents its readers with the fol- , lowing sketch of the Teel Cabinet, upon' which- our space' will not allow us to offer a word of comment :—" The new Cabinet is not one of such pure breed as the ultra ,Tories could have desired ; neither is it f.)rmed by the coalition of the moderate men of different shades who directed the Tory party when in opposition. All the opposing factions are represented from the • converted WhigS, like Lord Stanley, - to the most thick and thin Tories, like Sir E. Knatchbull. The Duke of Welling ton gives only his name to the Ministry. He takes no office, .and reserves to himself, probably, the task of keeping together those Ministers whose antecedents have furni4hed the greatest contrasts. Lord Lynd- Must resumes the functions of Lord Chancellor. Nothing less would suffice for the direction in the Lords, than the profound knowledge, activity, and well-known dexterity 'of the Yoble Lord. Mr. Goulburn, who becomes Chancellor of the Exchequer. is a man of very doubtful capacity, and will, doubtlessly, be merely the instrument of Sir R. Peel. The Earl of Ripon, who is a renegade in p o li t i ca l economy , as , we ll as in politics, is at th bead of- the Board of Trade, and we may venture to predict that he will commit more than one blunder there. He it was who complained re cently, in the House of Lords, of the concessions to •France, stipulated fur in the projected treaty of com merce between France and England. We see how little fruit the example of Mr. Huskisson has borne. Lord Ellenborough, who is to direct the affairs of India, is an elegant talker ; but we question whether he be equal to the post which he is to fill. As to Lord'Stante), who is to be Secretary for the'COlOnies he certainly does not want talent, but is there no danger to be apprehended for the department .over which he is to preside, from his irritable temperament ? Sir James Graham, who is to be the Home Minister, is a madman, who sees double in politics. Sir Robert Peel will have enough to do to moderate the passions of these men. We have left to the last our opinion of the new Foreign Secretary, Lord Aberdeen. The only motive for placing him in this dif ficult post is his long experience of diplomatic business. Apart from this consideration, Lord Aberdeen is a very ordinary man. He hates Prance, and has shown hatred on all occasions since he last held office. He will not, however, come to an open rupture with us, for the Duke of Wellington and Sir- Robert Peel are anxious to cover their real dislike of France with a veil of friendship. We may, however, expect from Lord Aberdeen a thousand annoyances and,a pride and coldness in his re lations with us borderino•. On hostility. S uc h i s th e T or y Ministry for England and Prance. We have not gaimd much by . the change. Lord Aberdeen will, perhaps, be less bold'and violent than Lord Palmerston, but an un derhand conflict will continue on every point of the globe between French and English interests." The Sied calls Lord Lyndhurst " the sycophantic servant of the aristocracy," and Lord Elliot "the humble shadow of the will of the Duke of Wellington." It adds: —" There are, properly speaking, only three Ministers in the new Cabinet—namely, Sir Robert Peel, the Duke of Wellington, and Lord Stanley, but the latter aspires to the highest rank 4ith the support of the Church. If a rupture should take place in the Cabinet, Sir James Graham, Sir Henry iiardin g e, and the Duke of Buck ingham, will go over to his side. This is the first danger of the new Ministry, for Lord Stanley will never be satisfied so long as there shall be in the Cabinet any man higher than himself." An Alexandrian Correspondent of the Semaphore states that the officers of an English frigate, which had recently arrived from Beyrout, reported the Druses and Maronites as having come to open hostilities against each other ; and that a good number of men had fallen on both sides. It was also stated that the British Consul at Jerusalem had retired to Jaffa, because one of his Janissaries had been maltreated by the populace, and the authorities had refused to give satisfaction. • Advices from Lisbon of the 30th ult. represent the Algarves as very disturbed. General Macdonnell, for merly of Don Miguel's service, was arrested on the 24th ult. at Lisbon, and sent a prisoner to the Castle of St. George. He was charged in the Chambers with being privy to some Miguelite conspiracy: The Emperor of Morocco. has sent two ships of war to exercise on the coast of Portugal. His Imperial Ma jesty threatens war unless Queen Donna Maria pays his demand of 30,000 dollars. _ From France, Spain, and Holland, the accounts of the crops are favourable. The prices of grain are declining. PUBLIC OPINION. The Morning Chronicle thus defines the character of the new Tow Administration :—" Sir Robert Peel com mences by sinning against the very first principles of Government. His power, instead of being exercised for the entire and general benefit, and resembling, in its in fluence, that sun which "shines alike on the evil and the good," is to be wielded for the imagined benefit of those who have been the means of placing him in office. He is to rule for the landlord, as opposed to the manu facturer. lie is to rule for the farmer, as opposed to the artizan. He is to rule for the profit of the agricultural in terest, as opposed to that of the commercial. He is to rule for the counties, as opposed to the cities. Such a Government is a fraud. It commences with the very worst prin ciple of the, very worst Government. It adopts and fosters that system of class favouritism which has been the cause of all the heart-burnings that have ever roused a people against its rill( rs."—lt is impossible that a Cabinet, constituted as Sir R. Peel's is, can ever adopt . an enlarged or decided system of policy. It has only one bond of union—that of self.interest. Its ruling principle will necessarily be, to support one part of the country to the detriment of the other—to throw the whole weight of its influence into the scale of the agri cultural interest, and do no more than it can possibly help, to further the good of the commercial classes. The Times speaks of the Tory Opposition—now the Tory Ministry—in the following inflated terms of pane gyric :—" Never in the history of this nation was there an Opposition more splendid, efficient, and constitutional, than that which for some years has been headed by Sir Robert Peel. The true secret of its strength is to be found in its moral character. Abounding in talent and eloquence of the first order, as it undeniably did-Aistin guished, as it uniformly was, by just and enlarged views of public policy—and exhibiting, as it never failed to do, an admirable combination of moderation without feeble ness, and of vigilance without ungenerous partisan ship—it, nevertheless, was indebted for that gradual in crease of.popularity which has at last placed it in power, not so much to any or to all of the attributes we have ascribed to it,, as to the high political morality which, in conjunction with those attributes, pervaded and hallowed the whole course of its operations."—The " high political morality" of Sir Robert Peel's party is a qualification that it has yet to deveire—if it be not th e mos t cu t t i ng irony to allude to it ; or where is the " high political morality" of Lord Ripon—of Lord Stanley—above all, of Sir James Graham—who, of course, will materially con tribute to give a tone to the new Cabinet ? " High po litical morality" is the most absurd phrase our Contem porary could possibly have applied to the Tories. • The Post says—" The new Administration of Great Britain is fully disposed to put a favourable construction on the acts of the French GoVernment, and, while main taining British principles, and respect for established in stitutions everywhere, to co-operate cordially with France in the advancement of the civilisation, the peace, and the happiness of Europe." We/4.1,w. no faith in this assertion when we remember that our Foreign Minister is Lord Aberdeen—an avowed disciple and imitator of Metter nich, who has always been an advocate for stretching Prerogative to its utmost limit. The Advertiser sketches Sir Robert Peel's political character, as follows :—" Sir Robert Peel is the same "man now he ever was. Considerations of abstract jus tice will never weigh with him ; they will never influ ence his conduct. In the present case, we cannot even expect anything from his notions of expediency. He never vecognises the claims of expediency, until they haVe assumed an attitude which menaces the public peace if any longer resisted. And consequently, as the disposition of the public 'mind at present is, un happily, to repose in quiet, in the conviction that Sir Robert Peel meditates some important measures of political and commercial amelioration—he will bring forward no such measures, so long. as the national mind remains in this tranquil and passive frame."— It is only by a show of dogged and desperate determi nation on the part of the country, that Sir Robert Peel will be induced to stir a step. He will reform only on compulsion. Like Palinurus, he will 'i,lumbel- at the helm, to the last moment, trusting to the apparent se renity of the weather. In a word, he is a day-after-the fair Reformer, who will never yield till it is just too late, and till concession has lost half its value and all its grace. The Herald thus alludes to Lord John Russell's policy, as respects our Australian colonies :—" In every one of the Australian colonies Lord John Russell leaves some vexatious question behind him. In New South Wales there is the application of the land fund to purposes other than immigration —a process which realises the fable of killing the goose that lays the golden egg. Then there is the projected division of that colony into three dependencies . — a suggestion exceedingly unpopular at Sydney. In South Australia—the Wake field model colony !_his Lordship has broken the condition on which the settlers went out, and has been compelled to place it on the foundation of an ordi nary Crown colony —proceedings which will, doubtless, heavily disappoint the colonists, if they do not induce them to emigrate elsewhere. In Western Australia his Lordship's meddling Governor, Mr. Hutt, has been un necessarily introducing what are termed the new colo nial land principles to their fullest extent, to the great annoyance of the older settlers. Ile has interfered in every thing in which interference was needless, and has not interposed where interposition would have been be neficial, by protecting the colonial whale fishery against the depredations of the American whalers." We quote the following from the Cumbrian:—" Power in this country is always unpopular. The very fact of being in possession of the Government makes enemies of thousands. A Jack in office is always an object of dis like and suspicion to John Bull. The Whigs lost influ ence merely because they wt re, the G overnment. In a short time Peel will b e t h e magne t of similar feelings. Notwithstanding all we have heard of the power of the landed interest, the colonial interest, the shipping inte rest, and the manufacturing interest, we have a suspicion that there is in this country an interest stronger than all, and that is the Grumbling Interest." The Hull Rockingha m speaks in the following terms of the new Ministerial appointments :—" We have not much fault to find with these appointments, seeing that a Tory Ministry is inevitable. The most objectionable name is that of the Duke of Buckingham but we sup -pose it was nlcessary- to conciliate the landed interest in his person. Bow his determined support of the sliding scale will be made to comport with the equally strong predilection of Sir G. Murray for a fixed duty, remains to be seen." The Livevpool Chronic I', commenting on " invariable conduct of the Tories towards the people, observes:— " They have no feeling for them, they have no sympathy with them. They are suffering privation. They are oppressed by poverty. They are afflicted by hunger, and almoSt overwhelmed with famine. But what of that ? What is all that to Tory legislators ? They buy their seats in Parliament to serve , themselves, and not the people." Tke. Dublin Evening Post thus alludes to Sir Robert Peel's late..interview with..the Queen_:—" _Eight minutes. Short enough, in all conscience. But what had the Queen to do but acquiesce? Where was the use in pro longing a disagreeable visit? Sir Robert came with his list. Her - Majesty cast her eye over it, and said yes. What inure' did they want her to say ? One thing is clear, she has not forgotten her dignity." The British Mercury remarks, in an article suggested by the new Ministerial appointments :—" What, how ever, stamps the character of the whole Cabinet, is the presence in it of the Duke of Buckingham. Most heart sickening is it to contemplate this appointment. It is a direct challenge to the starving masses—a throwing *down of the. gauntlet to the manufacturing and commer cial classes—and an insolent announcement that the tax upon food will be maintained in all its vigour. - The Scotsman speaks of Lord John Russell's farewell speech in the House of Commons in the following terms Lord John Russell's speech will be T.( al with painful. interest by every friend to liberal government. It is .precisely such a speech as we should expect from a pat riotic Minister, who, having toiled to advance the best interests of his country, has fallen, through the triumph of popular ignorance and error, electoral dishonesty, and factious combination." MONEY-TRILDM-c OBV.ZYZER CZ. In Manehester there have been five considerable failures this week—one calico-printer, another haber dasher, another in the drysultery, and two otheral one in the general Manchester trade, and the other spinners and manufacturers. The united engagements amount to above 300,0001. Huddersfield enjoys tolerably good trade and is more animated. At Leeds the demand is steady. The Lei cester sales of Colonial wool have been brisk this week, and the Cloth and Yarn markets at Manchester better. In Oldham, out of ninty-one cotton-mills, nineteen are at a partial stand, and fourteen completely at a stop. In Ashton-under-Lyne trade is better. At Bradford the Piece market is steady. At Bolton three weeks have made no improvement in the trade, and the cottons are in a very depressed state. At Heywood there is a slight improvement, but hundreds are working short time. NAVAL AND PiIXLITARY. A violent storm in the China seas has wrecked three vessels ; a French bark wrecked, but crew saved : a Liverpool merchant ship, and a Dutch vessel were both lost, and every individual perished. The ship Dryade, given over for lost, and for the pas sengers of which their relatives had gone into mourning, has been heard of as safe at Mauritius on the 3d of June last. LAW AND POLICE. From the evidence of Ellen Linton, a young girl, charged at Union Hall for stealing from the pantries about Sydenham, it appears that a gang of about twenty boys and girls have long infested this neighbourhood, as well as Camberwell and Dulwich, by plundering every kind of eatable provision, from venison down to a pig's head, from the areas and kitchens of gentlemens' houses, which, on assembling at night in Sydenham Wood, they feasted on. The girl confessed that she never lived so well as she did while with the gang in the wood, and upon the best provisions. The police have received or ders to disperse this crew. ELECTIONEEItrNG. At a criminal court held by the Sheriff, to inquire into the charges brought against Thomas Purves, mason, and four others, for rioting at the late Haddington elec tion, and assaulting the constables, the prisoners were found guilty of the first charge, but not of the assault, and sentenced to three months' imprisonment in the gaol. THEATRICAL. It is.believed that a lady of rank and fashion, a lineal descendant from a dramatic wit and orator, and not less famed for her misfortunes than for her beauty and ta lents, is studying under a distinguished actor, previous to her appearance at Covent Garden. SPORTING. More than eighteen calves having been devoured by the wolves round Berlaimont in the Nord, 100 sportsmen with the inhabitants beat up the game. The first day they roused five, but only killed two. The Duke of Montrose has taken Selby Lodge, North amptonshire, and resides there during the hunting season. The Pytchley hounds are kennelled in the neighbourhood. In the two very spirited rowing matches at Norwich recently, between the Norwich and London watermem the palm of both races was completely carried by the Thames men. COUR,T-FASHZONABLE. Her Majesty and Prince Albert leave Claremont for Windsor Castle on Monday. Her Majesty's .accouche ment is expected early in November. The Duke of Bedford has arrived at Woburn Abbey, from a visit to the Duke of Rutland in Derbyshire. The Duke and Duchess of Beaufort leave town to morrow for the Isle of Wi<„•ht. Count Capo D'lstrias arrived at Mivart's Hotel last night. Lord and Lady Brougham intend to pass the autumn at Richmond. MKSCELLANEOUS.

It is now positively determined to open the whole line from London to Brighton on the 21st inst. A public meeting at Hull, in favour of commercial freedom, was held at the Town-hall, Hull, last week, when a series of resolutions were passed, on which a petition is to be framed, praying for the removal of re strictions on trade, and no further imposition of taxes. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. FRANCE. We have received by Express, news from Paris of Sunday's date. They are not of much political interest. King Louis - Philippe, accompanied by the Duke of Orleans and - Marshal Soult, visited the works of the fortifications of Paris on Saturday. M. de Baraude, the Ambassador of France in St. Petersburgh, sailed for France, in the Danae frigate, on the 21st ult. The Paris corn-market was extremely dull on Satur day, not more than 480 sacks of flour were sold on that day, and the prices underwent no alteration. The price of wheat had augmented in four of the provincial markets and fallen in six. The Toulonnois, of the 2d instant, states that the sudden return of Admiral Hugon's squadron, on the Ist had given rise to many contradictory reports. By some it was thought the Admiral would be ordered to Mahon to demand satisfaction for the seizure by the Spanish authorities of the French w ar corvette 'Vic torieuse, and by others that the squadron had been called back to Toulon to bu inspected by the Minister of Marine. The Sentinel: of the same date announces, that six ships of that squadron would shortly proceed to Brest, under the command of Admiral Casy. The Sud de Marseilles of the 2d states that all the French men-of-war on the Barcelona station received orders to put to sea on the 28th for an unknown desti nation. The Univers announces the arrival at Bordeaux of M. Rochouse, Bishop of Eastern Australasia, accompanied by the eldest son of the late Grand Pontiff of the Gam bier Islands, and it was said a Prince of the family of Tamea Mea, the present Sovereign of the Sandwich Islands. The Court of Cassation decided on Saturday that there existed sufficient ground for prosecuting the three Mem bers of the former municipality of Toulouse, who are consequently to be tried by the Court of Assizes of Mom. The Semaphore de Marseilles announces the death of Pellico, the author of Le Mie Priogni. The Three per Cents. were done in Paris on Sunday at 77f. 35c. SPAIN. Our Madrid letters of the 30th ult. state that great preparations were making to celebrate the anniver saries of the conclusion of the treaty of Bergara, and of the revolution of the Ist of September. Orders have been forwarded to all the civil and military au thorities to arrest General Ramon Narvaez, who was believed to have entered Spain on the side of Gibraltar. The Government felt somewhat alarmed at the recent acts of insubordination in different corps of the army. and was devising means of preventing their recurrence. M. Campazano had published a pamphlet entitled " Peninsular Union," in which he proposes a junction of commercial interests between Spain and Portugal similar to that established between the di&rent States of Germany. GERMANY. The Emperor of Austria, having taken cold at Gratz, had been confined for several days to his apartments. Wood sher.thing was first employed for ships. A very early instance of extraordinary attention to the preservation of the bottom of a vessel appeared in a gal ley, supposed to have belonged to the Emperor Trajan, A.D. 98 to A.D. 117, which was found in the fifteenth century, in the Lago Riccio, in the kingdom of Naples, and was weighed, after it had probably remained more than thirteen hundred years under water ; it was doubly planked with pine and cypress, coated with pitch, upon which there was a covering of linen, and, over all, a sheathing of lead, fastened with nails of brass or copper; the timber was in a perfectly sound state. In the reign of Henry VIII. large vessels had a coating of loose ani mal hair attached with pitch, over which a sheathing board, of abort an inch in thickness, was fastened, " to keep the hair in its place."—Athenceum.

The cold of the last day or two, together with the rains, has had an unfavourable effect upon the Money Market, as it tends in some measure to , renew the appre hensions on the subject of the harvest. In the meantime the speculators are looking to the clearance of their foreign supplies for home consumption with some anxiety. Wheat is still falling in Mark-lane, and 78,000 quarters of foreign arrived to-day. The panic in the Tea Market on Saturday, when Company's Congou was down at one time to Is. 9d. sel lers, has subsided, but it has been succeeded by extreme dullness, and Is, l Id. is at present a very full price for this quality. We have seldom noticed so large an attendance of tea men on 'Change on the last business day of the week as on Saturday afternoon, and indeed they were almost the only parties who were assembled. there. We believe, after all, however, that there was more talk than work among thorn. Consols Account, 90, nothing doing; Spanish 221, — market flat. THE MARKETS-THIS DAY. CORN EXCHANGE.
