Morning-- (I minutes after 5 Evening 2r4 minutes after 5. k,9 LONDON: FRIDAY, JULY 23, 1841. The five days' debate at the India House upon the case of the Raja of SATTARA is over, and the RAJA'S dethronement is again confirmed, in the face of the British people, by the Court of Directors, as an irreversible de cision. The manner of his dethronement was this. In the dead of night, his palace was stir rounded by a body of British troops; the Politi cal Resident at his Court, and another officer, headed by the RAJA'S own brother, and now his successor, APPA SAHIB, burst upon hips while asleep, hurried him out, with hardly any cloth ing upon him, thrust him into a palanquin— thrust into the same palanquin, and in the same condition, his cousin, the head of his forces, BALLA SAHIB SENNAPUTTEE, and marched them as prisoners, 800 miles away, to Benares. Dur ing the march, the wife of BALLA SAHIB was seized with the pangs of child-birth, and was not suffered to halt. A few days after, BALLA SAHIB himself, brought to the point of death, also solicited a halt—it was refused : at the end of the day's march he was found dead in his pa lanquin ! If, as his accusers say, the EX-RAJA is guilty, still this conduct is without justification ; but, if he be innocent, it covers with disgrace and infamy not them alone, but the British nation, in whose name these deeds have been done. The case of the RAJA, therefore, can no longer be confined to the walls of the India House; it is now a na tional case, and it becomes the duty of every man, possessed either of feeling or patriotism, to pass judgment upon the facts of that case. What are the facts, as elicited by the debate "! These. From 1818 to 1835 the Raja of SATTARA had so demeaned himself in every relation of life, public and private, as a Prince and as a man, that he was the favoured child of the „Bombay Government and the Court of Directors. They loaded him with their accumulated praises. That be deserved these praises, three successive Poli tical Residents at his Court, bore their personal testimony in the Court of Proprietors. As the highest and most gratifying mark of admiration and respect they could bestow, the C ourt of Di sent him a sword, an d a letter to be delivered with rectors, in 1 836 ) These testimoni a l s were withheld by the Bombay Government, because the RAJA complained of certain gross infractions of the treaty, and also complained that, for four years, he had been neglected and deceived by that Government. Upon his last appeal being repelled, he determined, openly, to appeal, by an agent of his own, to the Court of Directors. The now admitted infractions of the treaty, re ferred to certain jagheers, or estates, originally granted to high officers, in reward of public ser vices, such being the mode, and not by pensions, in which it is the invariable practice, in India, to acknowledge desert, the sovereignty over which was guaranteed to the RAJA in the same manner as over his own dominions. It was impossible, therefore, but that the RAJA should attach the utmost importance to these breaches, and be ur gent in demanding redress. If a decree of one of the Company's Courts of Justice could sell one of these jagheers, a decree might attach, and selLhis other dominions. Thus, the duty of self-preservation, it was, which compelled the RAJA. to resort to his undoubted right of appeal to the Home Authorities from the oppression of the Local Government. This intention of appeal, the Local Government construed, not only into an infraction of treaty on the RAJA'S part, but into an insult to themselves, which they retali ated, by rejecting the RAJA'S customary annual present and letter; thus breaking off all amicable relations with him. The temper and public con duct of the Bombay authorities, was the signal for a host of enemies rising sip against him, who found the Government prepared to listen! to every accusation they could forge. That he had many powerful and unscrupulous enemies, the Bombay Government had long been officially advised. His throne, that of a 11tahratta, was raised on the ruin of the PEISHWA, who was a Brahmin. For years, every Brahmin had been plottin g hi s downfiti. Accordingly, UNTAJEE, One of the most abandoned and profligate Brah ns, accuses the RAJA of having tampered with two native officers. This char ge i s gone i nto be fore a Corn ions sent up to Sattara, in a 4 1 1 )1 , t 3 • rt. ' •- • " • ,vi t )lim p a ppti . 'A - • manner to try the RAJA at his own capi tal, but behind his back. The President of the Commission, General LODWICK stated in Court, that UNTAJEE declared himself to be ut terly unworthy of belief, and to have been actu ated by revenge—that one of the native officers deposed that he had taken a solemn oath which he never intended to observe, and that neither of the native officers was suffered to be cross-ex amined. The next charge against the RAJA was, that he conspired with Don MANOEL DE PORTU GAL, the Viceroy of Goa, for the procuring of 30,000 troops from Europe, to drive the British out of India. The witnesses to this charge are proved to be, almost to a man, Brahmins ! Se veral among them are gang robbers, whom the• Bombay' Government pardoned. The written evidence is a bundle of Mali ratta and Portuguese letters found in pawn, with an obscure inhabitant, of an obscure village, in the Goa territories, and purporting to have belonged to two Brahmins, who had died ten months before, and are declared to have been the RAJA'S agents, while it is admitted, that these persons had for years been in the service of the Pope of the Brahmins (the Swamee of SUNKESHWAR), an enemy of the RAJ-4.'S. These papers were bought by the Government for 401. The Portuguese documents, thus found, and affirmed by the Bombay Government to be signed by Don MANOEL, Don MANOEL has declared, before a notary public at Lisbon, to be utter forgeries, and his correspondence with the RAJA a gross falsehood. The third charge is, that the RAJA intrigued, with the same design of overthrowing the English, with the dethroned Raja of NAG PORE, a Prince who, at the time, was a prisoner at Judpore, confined to a court-yard 20 feet by 12; and the proofs that the Raja of SATTARA did intrigue with him, in gross violation of his treaty, are, that the ex-Raja of NAGPORE wrote a letter to the Raja of SATTARA (which is not proved to have been received), and that the latter sent to the other Prince a pair of shoes! To these charges, the Raja of SATTARA pleaded not guilty, and asked for a healing. In reply, Sir JAMES CARNAC went to Sattara, called the RAJA before him, submitted to his unconditional signa ture a new treaty, by which he was to acknow ledge himself guilty of treasonable practices against the British Government, as the price of retaining his throne; and, upon the RAJA'S deli berate refusal, and his immediate offer to sur render his person and throne to the Bri tish Government, he was dismissed from the Governor's presence, and, without further warning, forcibly seized and exiled in the manner we have seen. A few days after, the Governor himself placed upon the throne, with every mark of public honour, the RAJA'S brother, APPA SAHIB, an aban_ doned man in every relation of life, who had twice secretly plotted the partition of his brother's dominions, and now acknowledged, under his own hand, that lie was cognizant of the treasons charged by the Government upon the RAJA. These facts are established by the volume of papers which the Court of Di rectors have themselves selected as their case, and laid before the Proprietors ; and upon every one of the previous acts towards the RAJA, down to the last one of most abhorrent cruelty, have the majority of the Court of Directors bestowed their " warm com mendation." Such case, then, we repeat, is now a national case. For the RAJA to expect justice from these men, or from their minions, who have shown themselves devoid of every senti ment of justice, common sense, or humanity, is utterly hopeless. We call upon the country to take it up, or to share, in the eyes of the civilised world, the disgrace and infamy which attach indelibly to the actors through out this transaction. The Court of Direc tors have dared to treat the ex-Raja of SATTARA as the QUEEN of these realms could not, for the brightest jewel in her sceptre, venture to treat the guiltiest malefactor among her subjects. The Raja of SATTARA was under the protection of British power ; and we tell the Court of Directors, that what the Queen of ENGLAND may not do, the Court of Directors will not do, with impunity, in any part of her dominions. On their heads henceforth he the consequences of these acts. They have know ingly, wilfully, deliberately—aye, and insultingly too—made those acts theirs, and upon them shall the responsibility rest. It must be seen whether the Government of British India, over a hundred millions of men, is given to them for such uses. Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S address to the electors of the City of London is a Ministerial manifesto. It defends what Ministers have done, and an nounces what they are to do. The former will be more useful to them—the latter more interest ing to the public. We think the former also complete, so far as it repels the accusations of the Tories. In the early part of last year Lord JOHN RUSSELL announced the Government intention of proposing new taxes ; they were carried, and the result this year was a larger deficiency in the revenue than here tofore. Unable to reduce the establishments, Mi nisters, on a careful review of our commercial imposts, came to the conclusion that by remov ing prohibitions and lessening restrictions it was possible to replenish the Treasury. Before Eas ter Lord J. RUSSELL, on a debate on the Colo nial Customs Bill, announced the intention of Ministers; but this did not prevent the Tories from loudly asserting that the commercial plans of the Ministers were only brought forward after they had been defeated on the Irish Qualification Bill. Lord JOHN'S refutation of their assertion is triumphant, but it availed nothing with the Tories. They asserted in the House of Commons and out of the House of Commons, and asserted most unscrupulously in face of numerous facts, and in the face of Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S announcement, that the Budget was a mere clap -trap to ward off resignation. The calumnies of the Tories have attained the object in view. Lord JOHN Rus - SELL admits that the "returns from the manu facturing districts have not tended to restore the balance against the counties." The assertions of the Tories were in fact believed—the declarations Of the MiniSters . were - distrusted, and the manu facturing districts came not to the rescue. No doubt the Ministers kept their intentions some what secret froni the best of motives ; but had they been, when the resolve was first adopted, promulgated far and wide; they would not have been open to . and to suspi c i on b y misrepresentation by by the Tories, From this part of the case one thing is quite clear, namely, that the Tories have neglected no arts, and spared no means, to defeat the Whigs. They have pursued them unrelentingly and un scrupulously ; we shall see hereafter that the them forbear in their own ing Whigs coin. have no i ntention of paying Ministers mean to meet the Parliament, which we never doubted. They can only receive a de cision from the Parliament itself; and ti ll that be assembled, there is no authorised r meansto a ask ascertaining what it will be. They a t h e new Parliament for a clear and decided opinion on the policy they have pursued. Most likely, through the medium of the Speech from the Throne, they will pronounce a stron g an d decided opinion in favour of their own measures • the Address moved by their friends will echo that opinion; the opposite party will move an amendment condemning it ; issue will be joined, and if the majority decide against Ministers they will resign. We are not aware that they could with pro priety or honour adopt any other course. Had they followed the suggestions of their opponents, they would have resigned before Parliament met —had they listened to the calls of followers more zealous than wise, they would hold the Govern ment, with her MAJESTY'S approbation, in de fiance of the Tories, and appeal again and again to the people. They have adopted a middle and a perfectly constitutional course, and their reso- THE SUN, ILONDON. FRIDAY, lution will appear bold, even to themselves, in contrast with the craven recommendation of the Tories, and timid in contrast with the bolder calls of the thorough Radicals. While we think the defence of Ministers com plete in relation to the Tory accusations, and their resolve only to resign after Parliament has met, irreproachable, we cannot approve of all parts of the manifesto. There runs throughout it too much of the Ministers and too little of the national interests. The alterations proposed in our fiscal system were far less to set trade free than to improve the revenue. That the fiscal regulations which the Ministers propose to alter are dishonest, and contrary to all sound princi ples, seems not to have formed any part of their consideration. It was a little more or less ad vantageous to the Treasury, which was the basis of the plan, and with that the manufacturing districts had little sympathy, and felt for it no enthusiasm. In this respect Lord J. RUSSELL unfortunately justifies the ridicule of the Tulles, and gives a severe kick to those over-zealous friends who, on the eve of the elections, held the Ministers up as the ardent champions of free trade. They only consistently follow out their own principle of looking more to the revenue than to free trade, more to the Treasury than to the nation, when Lord JOHN RUSSELL declares that " it would be inconsistent with my notions of public duty to harass the Goyernment of the day by vexatious opposition." He will let the Tories run their career, and, in return for the calumnies they have heaped on his party, and for the unscrupulous means they have employed to defeat the Whigs, he will help them to carry on the Government, and give to them, as Ministers of the Crown, " the means of main taining the reputation of the country abroad and internal quiet at home." The bulk of the Li berals will not, we believe, either approve of this part of Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S declaration, or imitate his conduct. They will think it their duty to harass the Tories, while his conduct looks like a truce or compact with the enemy, in which the people are to be sacrificed in order to secure the power of whoever may be Ministers. The times and the circumstances under which this address appears, give this part of it a pecu liar importance. Great distress prevails, which the Tories ascribe to the Whig Administration, while Lord J. RUSSELL'S supporters ascribe it to dishonest Tory legislation. The Tories make light of the distress, and are resolved to maintain the dishonest legislation. They are to seize the Ad ministration more securely to effect this scanda lous and dishonest purpose. Never before, in the history of the world, certainly not in the history of our country, was an Administration formed on the avowed principles of maintaining a flagitious system of legislative plunder, and no ordinary rules can be of any force in prescribing opposition to such an Administration. Lord J. RUSSELL has obviously a bad opinion of the means by which the Tories have succeeded. He refers to the English county constituency, implying that the Tory majority has been packed by bribery, intimidation, and all sorts of corrupt means, making it utterly unworthy of respect and obedience. A majority, then, obtained by the vilest means, to effect the vilest purposes, is to constitute the Government. To us it seems that every honest man, and every patriot, is bound to give such a Government the most in flexible and most harassing opposition. By a large part of the nation, which supports Lord JOHN RUSSELL, the Tories are regarded as the enemies of civilisation, and as engaged in a deadly war against the rights and liberties of the people. They are endangering the peace of society, and provoking a rebellion in Ireland. Lord JOHN RUSSELL himself proves that they have violently and perseveringly opposed all his reforms. With such a party there can be no compromise and no peace. Our motto, at least, is, No Surrender. Lord J. RUSSELL studies their convenience, and promises not to molest them. We live in difficult times, when statesmen are required to make, not to follow precedents. We must say that to those times we doubt whether Lord J. RUSSELL be equal. We must say, too, that we doubt whether the Whig policy of conciliating and soothing the enemies of honesty, of justice, and civilisation, be proper. We are sure that it has riot at present, as a party measure at least, been successful; and we doubt whether it be not as injurious to our cause, as it obviously is to the Whigs them selves. The Tories are the avowed enemies of the people; and those who are their friends, and wish to be trusted, must not talk of supporting the Tories. We lay before our readers a list of the Tory Cabinet, somewhat different from the other lists which have been published; but which, we are 'assured, is substantially accurate. For all parts of it we do not answer. At the same time the known repugnance in a high quarter to Sir R. PEEL, makes it extremely probable that her MA JESTY may send rather for the Earl of ABER DEEN than for him, and prefer the Noble Earl as the medium of communication between her self and her Ministers. The Tories, and Sir R. PEEL in particular, would be ready, we believe, to accept the plan as the means of obtaining and securing her MAJESTY'S favour. The wily Ba ronet is willing to stoop to make a permanent conquest. He will not again attempt to carry her MAJESTY by a coup de main, but he means gradually to convert her to plausible dishonest Toryism. In addition to the names mentioned in the list we understand that Colonel SIBTHORP and Sir ROBERT WILSON are to receive important ap pointments. There is no denying the fact, that the Repeal agitation is rapidly gaining ground in Ireland. Were we dis posed to regard the cry of repeal as confined to a hand ful of the blind followers of ➢Zr. O'CONNELL, the grand entertainment given on Tuesday last by the City and County of Cork to Mr. O'CONNELL as the chief of the Repeal Association, would impress us with a very different conviction. The near approach of the return of the Tories to power fills Ireland with apprehension and alarm ; and in the southern capital of the kingdom i t is now difficult for any man to obtain a hearing who does not unite with the populace in demanding a Repeal of the Legislative Union. In support of this assertion, we refer our readers to a report of the proceedings at the great Repeal Festival at Cork, which will be found in another part of The Sun. Having always conscientiously advocated the political and legislative union of the two countries, in opposition to Mr. O'CONNELL, it is not without anxiety that we see, among other evils, in the restoration of the Tories to office an irresis- tible impulse given to the only mischievous mea sure set on foot by the great Agitator. If the Repeal agitation ever find an echo out of Ireland, it will be in consequence of Tory oppression—if Repeal ever be car ried, it will be by a Tory Government acting under Irish coercion. The news contained in the French journals of Tues day was anticipated in our afternoon edition of Wednes day. We have therefore only to select the following paragraphs from them :- - A telegraphic despatch received at Nantes on the 15th, directs M. Dellarald, principal Commissioner of Police at Nantes, to repair to Toulouse, there to exercise provisionally the functions of Special Commissioner. The despatch added that he would find at Toulouse M. Maurice Duval, the Extra. ordinary Commissioner of the Government. M. Dellaralde set out post, on the 16th, in the morning. A young performer of the Theatre de la Porte Saint Martin, had had his name entered at the church of the Blanc Manteaux, to be married in the course of the month. When he returned to fix the day for performing the ceremony, the Vicar in person appeared to tell him that he could not marry an actor, and that there was an express prohibition by the Archbishop of Paris. —Le Constitutionnel. The Damao frigate, Captain 011ivier, sailed on the 14th from Brest, for Cronstadt, where it will take on board Baron Barante, Ambassador of France at the Court of St. Peters burgh, when Mr. Casimir Perier will succeed him as charge d'affaires.—L'Armoricain. _ _ _ We remark in the Memorial Bordelais of the ISth a telegraphic despatch from Toulouse of the 16th, addressed by M. Bocher to the Prefect of the Gironde, which concludes with the following lines. '"The spirit of the troops is excel lent; the insult offered to the person of the King, in the per son of hi s representat i ve, will not remain unpuni-hed, the power of the law and the Government will prevail. An exam. ple will be made."—Le Commerce. The Gazette de Lausanne mentions a horrible tragedy which has just place at Villeneuve. An inhabitant of St. Clerges had long sought the hand of Nladlle. Champel, daughter of one of the late governors of the Castle of Chinon, but his offers of marriage had been obstinately rejected by her family, as beneath them. lie was heir to an uncle who had property, and he wished to get from him a cession of part of in, in order that he might have a better chance of success in his suit. On the 6th inst. he went to his uncle's residence ; his demand of cession was refused, and a discussion ensued, at the end of which he drew forth a pistol, shot his aunt, who was sitting near his uncle, dead on the spot, and then discharged another pistol at the latter, b u t t h e ball only grazed his fore h ea d . Thereupon he fled, and went to Clarens, where he breakfasted ' LY 23. 1841. in an inn, without any apparent signs of emotion. lie then went to Villeneuve, and prowled for a long time round the heuFe where Madlle. Champel lived. At last he met her out of doors, and took her to the entry of a path leading through some gardens to the lake. Here a conversation ensued, the nature of which is not known, but just as the young lady was leav]ng him to enter her house, he shot her dead with a pistol, and the next minute blew out his own brains. There were found upon him two other pistols loaded, a poniard, and a sword-stick.

From among the 7,000 ancient pieces of coin, frond at Cuerdale, in Lancashire, last year, none of which are of later date than 910, and of which nearly 3,000 were of the Anglo- Saxon era, a portion have been sent over to Paris by order of her Majesty, in pursuance of the following letter addressed to Sir. E. Hawkins, keeper of Antiquities inthe British Museum : " Sir,--I am directed by Lord Clarendon to inform you that, struck with the idea that some specimens of the ancient coins which were found last year at Cuerdale, in Lancashire, might be a suitable addition to the collection in the Royal Library at Paris, his Lordship is happy at having obtained from the Queen, to whom they belong in right, as Treasure trove, in her quality of Duchess and Countess of Lan caster, permission to reserve a selection for the above mentioned purpose. A list of these coins, with the coins themselves, accompanies this, and Lord Clarendon desires me to express to you the great satisfaction he will have in seeing that you accept becoming the intermediary for transmitting these objects to the Royal Library at Paris.—.l am, FR.

Among them are 2 of Charlemagne, 1 of Louis-le-Debonnaire, with the surname of Pius, 9 of Charles-the• Bold, struck in dif ferent towns, with others of Louis 11., Carloman, Eudes, Charles-the-Simple, Beranger, and Lambert. Among those of the Anglo-Saxons are 7 of Alfred-the-Great, 6 of &Litt Ed mund, and 40 various pieces without any nartes of kings, seve ral of which are curious imitations of the French Carlovingian coin. They are all in fine preservation, at d several were pre• viously unknown. The Memorial of Rouen announces that M. L.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JULY 21.—There has been a,moderate business done in the Cotton market to-day, the sales amounting to 2,000 bales. In speculation we have nothing of consequence to report, but for export, 150 Surat and 200 American havebeen taken. Prices continue steady.

Stocks had declined. The sales at the Stock Board on the 30th June, were more extensive than for some days past, but prices generally receded. United States Bank Shares sold at 18a, a decline of k per cent. Vicksburgh fell off 1 4. There was a fair amount of transactions in State Stocks, without material variation. United States Bank Shares at Philadelphia were quoted at 19 at 19 1 / 2 . Papers from Hobart Town to the 13th March have been re ceived, but they do not contain any news of interest. The Wheat market continued dull; a considerable quantity had arrived; the price was seven to eight shillings per bushel. PORT Plume, MARCH s.—Very little doing in any branch of business. Flour, if anything, on the decline. Towards the close of business yesterday, a reaction took place in both the English and Foreign Securities, and the Market closed with a firmer appearance.

The accounts received frem Manchester, state that the un favourable' character of the weather, together with the heavy continental failures immediately ensuing after those in London, here and elsewhere, have operated unfavourably upon the staple market. The demand for goods or yarn is no t so act i ve, and lower rates ar e generally offered. Both Stock Markets are thin, and further advance has taken place since the opening. The account trom Anierica relative to the burnt steamer, excites considerable attention and a painful degree of interest. CLOSING PRICES. .

From the few particulars received, it appears that it occurred on the extensive worsted-mills, situate in the village of Rorbury, about five miles from Wake field, belonging to Messrs. Foster and Borass, and was dis covered at about five o'clock in the morning raging in the up. permost floors. All attempts to check the progress of the flames were unavailing. The firm are stated to be fully in sured. It has be en ascerta i ned t h at t h e f i re originated in spontaneous combustion amongst a quantity of cotton waste that. had collected on the third story of the mills. SLAP AT THE COACHMAKERS.--" I admit that the items were done," said Mr. Sergeant Talfourd, in re ference to a conlirnaker's bill, at the Assizes, " but some of them are exorbitant." " One never pays a coachmaker's bill without thinking so, brother Talfourd," replied his Lordship. THE" NE CABINET. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) First Lord of the Treasury Lord ABERDEEN.

Peel will not oppose Shaw Lefevre as Mr. Speaker, because the Conservatives look to him to keep the Radical opposition in order, and Sir Robert does not want to have the appearance of starting in retrenchment, by adding another Speaker to the Pension List !

" Who runs may read." ABROAD. FOREIGN—COLONIAL. M. Theirs will not honour Germany with a visit this year. The, ex-Premier is angry because some of the German Courts signified their intention only to re ceive him as a private person. Were M. Thiers re ceived according to his deserts, it would not be either as an ex-Minister or as an individual, but as a political in cendiary. Our Correspondent at Carlsruhe writes us the fol lowing letter dated the 14th of July :—" This evening the office of the Gazette of Upper' Germany was suddenly surrounded by police officers, and the armed force entered the printing office just as the journal was going to press. A Commissary of Police who, fearing that the workmen would resist, had caused himself to be escorted in this manner, made the most minute search, took possession of the proofs, and, in general, conducted himself as if he imagined that a revolution in duodecimo was concealed in the peaceful atelier. A privy councillor, M. Gziegler, who is the censor of the journal, commanded the expedi dition. Nobody can account for this strange visit, which has put the whole town in confusion. People talk of a Rus sian affront, or a Prussian requisition, of the discovery of a conspiracy, &c. His Grace the Duke of Beaufort, accompanied by his family and a numerous suite, arrived at Brussels, On the 18th inst., on his way to Hanover. The third Musical Festival of Northern GermaHy takes place this week at Hatnburgh. Beethoven, Handel, and Weber are to unite their harmonies. The orchestra will consist of five hundred musicians. We have one day's later intelligence from the United States. The news, which is not important, will be found in another column. Twenty-four hours is, however, too short a period for even Brother Jonathan to go far a head. The French Journals of Tuesday are all occupied with the . riots at 'Toulouse. They therefore supply nothing in the way of news or opinion with which our readers are not already acquainted. The Debats of Wednesday states that two great political alliances will henceforth divide Europe—France, Austria, and Prussia on the one side, and England and Russia on the other. This division, we suspect, is some what apocryphal. Or has Lord Aberdeen been antici pating his Tory policy at the Foreign-office ? The Porte has ordered the Turks of Belgrade to be disarmed, in consequence of their cruel treatment of the Christians. AT HOME. ivxxsCELLANEOUS. On Monday, the 12th, a meeting of the inhabitants of Rotherham was convened for the purpose of condoling with the relatives of the sufferers in the late awful acci dent. Lord Howard forwarded his name to the subscrip tion list for 101. • The public road between the end of Oxford-street and Bayswater is universally complained of. This road, as all the world knows, is bounded on one side by Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, and on the other by splendid mansions, paying rents from 5001. to 7001. a year ; and yet this patrician, this royal road of all the roads leading out of the metropolis, is the only one which after nightfall is left in utter darkness. The moment you leave Oxford-street it is all " pitch-dark." At the meeting of the Royal Agricultural Society, held at Liverpool on Wednesday, it was evidently in tended to exclude reporters, to favour, it was said, an Agricultural Magazine, one of the sleeping proprietors of which happened to be a Member of the Council ; but the attempt was overruled, and one reporter from each Paper admitted. The grand dinner was fixed for this day, and for the convenience of the numerous visitors a pavilion has been erected capable of holding3,ooopersons. NAVAL AND MILITATI.Y. On Wednesday, in pursuance of a Court-martial (Col. Mackinnon, president), Private Hankey Howard received 100 lashes for insubordination on a march from Hampton to London. After its infliction he was removed to the regimental hospital. , • -- Her Majesty's ship the Princess Charlotte, with Admiral Stopford, arrived at Plymouth on Monday. LAW AND POLICE. The Leitrim county calendar has no more than six cases for trial; and Baron Richards, addressing the Grand Jury, congratulated the county on its lightness. Will Tory and Orange domination permit it to remain so ? In the Court of Bankruptcy on Wednesday, some strange disclosures were made respecting the bankruptcy of the Wakefields. The examination, it was expected, would have been final, but at the request of the solicitors for the assignees the inquiry was postponed to an early day, when the Commissioners will have some questions to put to the bankrupts. Two journeymen braziers were committed to Bride well on Wednesday for three months by Sir C. Marshall, for neglecting to fulfil a contract. SPORTING. The hawking at Loo had Z sooner finished this year than the falconers immediately set out for Nor way, to catch fresh hawks for next season's sport. Yachting has lately been on the wane in Ireland, but the Members of the Club are now trying to get up a regatta on.the Lower Shannon for next month. ELECTIONEERING. The military despotism, and obstruction exercised at the Carlow election, will be obvious in the single in stance of Mr. Symes, which appears in another part of The Sun. Speaking of the Wexford election, the Dublin Evening Post remarks :—" The fourth candidate, Mr. S. C. Hall, occupies a strange position on the poll : he has not obtained a single vote. He ought, we think, to vote for himself, if it were only to displace the queer-looking cypher. We hear that this second of the Tory candidates is no other than the husband of the lady of that name now engaged in writing ' Sketches in Ireland.' " William Morgan, who fired upon the crowd while they made a disturbance round his house at Waterford, has refused to be bailed out. The children wounded are doing well, and even the girl Mountain will, it is thought, retain her sight. At Waterford, the electors assembled in the Town hall on Friday, to make arrangements for petitioning against the undue return of the two Members, and to re- PUBLIC OPINION. What the Tories think of the rights of other men may be learned from what they say incidentally. The Post, for example, defends Colonel Bruen's threats to his tenants, by the doctrine that he had a right to be'Of fended because those tenants did not vote for him. The right to be offended at the free exercise of an 'electoral qualification is described as a right of property, from which it follows that the right of property in the land lords is the duty of slavery in the tenants. The same journal, writing on the same subject, de scribes Mr. Bolling's workmen as " enabled by him to acquire the franchise as occupiers of /4e houses, in the belief and understanding that they have no political opi nions that will lead them to vote against him." On which showing the franchise is altogether the gift of the Bollings and the Bruens of the empire to the industrious classes. The Tories, therefore, look on the whole of society as made exclusively for the rich—for whose advan tage the masses must be slaves body and soul. The Chartists, who speak and vote for the Tories, give their assent to the Tory doctrine that they are and ought to remain slaves. The Morning Post, accuses the Whigs of chuckling at the idea, that the Conservative leaders will be unani mous in re-accepting Mr. Shaw Lefevre, for Sir Robert is not a man to forget, that by choosing a Speaker from among his opponents, he will gain two votes upon most divisions. The Post considers, however, that the Whig party by their conduct at the opening of Parliament in 1835, prevailed on the House to establish the principle that the politics of the Speaker shonld harmonise with the politics of the majority of the House, and indeed it was in conformity with that principle, that Mr. Lefevre himself was chosen. Upon this account, therefore, the Conservative party, says the Post, should be against his re-election. The Herald takes a rational view of the choice of Speaker. It abhors any propositions of party in relation to any gentleman who has filled the chair with dignity honour, and impartiality, and is convinced that Mr. Shaw Lefevre has earned the respect of all parties. The independent electors of Scotland and Ireland are now attacked daily in the most ferocious language by the great organ of the Tories. No epithet is too strong for that unprincipled Journal. The Irish are ferocious, fanatical, and intoxicated barbarians : and the constitu ency of Ilawick, consisting of the most independent and Liberal electors in Scotland, are described as " Old Slit rig savages." Had they sold themselves to the Tories, like most of the old freemen in English boroughs, they would have been disgraced by the praise of the Times. The Worcestershire Chronicle observes that the Tories are wise in laying on oppression. The Tories can calculate pretty exactly the extent of oppression to which John Bull can submit ; they know how far they can just load him without inflaming him to kick off his burden, and turn upon his drivers, and they will hardly pass that line. With regard to the stumbling-blocks in the way of Ireland's quietude and desire for justice, says the Dublin Evening Post, " the priests are terrible men, and should be suppressed if possible. But how are you to go about it ? The only effectual way would be to murder the priests. But, then, there is some difficulty here. You must have at the very least, 200,000 men in Ireland before you can commence operations, and these would cost money. Besides, remember, that more than one half of her Majesty's troops are Irish Papists, and chances are that three••fourths of any.new levies would be Irish Papists also." These are mere hints, saith the Post. The Cheltenham Examiner thus pointedly speaks, alluding to the Tory majority :—" It is said to be a ma jority of eighty ; but a majority of eighty for what ? Not for Stanleyism towards Ireland ; not for Church Extension in England ; not even for opposition to Ballot and Franchise Reform—but a majority of eighty only for that question on which the Liberal party always have been confessedly the weakest, and invariably hitherto, in a minority, viz. the Corn-laws. Last year out of 477 Members who voted on Mr. Villiers' motion, the Tory majority was no less than 123. But did it follow that therefore the same majority existed against all Liberal measures ? Manifestly not." The Times—generously remarks the Ayr Observer (a Tory organ)—in commenting on the state of the elec tions, chooses to be somewhat gross and unjust in re ference to the Scottish returns. We would have wished that the re-action had been greater ; but we cannot join in attributing the Liberalism of the " inferior portion of the middle classes"—as the Times asserts—either to " vulgar pride and conceit," or to a vain-glorious desire of being "a century in advance of all England and Ire land in point of leeterature and leeberality." Such a truly vulgar gibe is not only unworthy of the " Leading Journal," but essentially wrong. PARLIAMENTARY. Lord John Russell has forwarded from Scotland an Address to the Electors of London, in which he points out the policy to be pursued by his party in the new House of Commons. He thanks the electors for their suffrages, and states that he would have done this at an earlier period, but he Was desirous first to know the result of the elections. That being against him, he states that the retirement of his party from of fice will immediately follow the condemnation of their policy, and that they would consider it inconsistent with their duty to harrass the Government of the day by vexatious opposition. They are resolved, however. to adhere firmly to the principles which led to their defeat, and confidently look forward to ultimate success. HUMOURS Or THE DAY. We believe, with satisfaction, that Mr. Macaulay as he is yet to have one opportunity more as a Minister, of defending the Government policy, has taken to study the questions of the day ; so that he may not be again under the painful necessity of reading Lord Palmerston's speech to explain their bearings to his constituents. Being well aware of the great talents of the Honourable Gentleman, we are sure that if he devote half as much time to that as he must have done to Pere Cyran and La Mere Angelique he will yet do the good cause which has thrust him into power and opulence, and to which he owes some alle giance, great service. We are not even without hope, if he turn his attention to the matter, that he may find in our suffering hand-loom weaver population as fit= themes for his eloquence, and as bright examples of cheerful submission to an over-ruling destiny, as in the attenuated advocates and worn-out soldiers, running from the world from disappointment or superstition, whom he has dignified and ennobled. Should he set before the world the suffering and patience of our population with the same mastery of diction as he has described the resignation of the recluses of Port Royal, he will go far to achieve a victory for humanity and freedom, and inspire the world with respect for talents which have latterly been wasted on a very indifferent theme. A split among the Tories has already manifested itself respecting the Speakership. The more rational of the party propose Mr. Shaw Lefevre, and the other Sir Eardley Wilmot. Indeed the very idea of electing a Liberal was never for an instant thought of by the Orangemen. Everything must be carried by a high hand, and if Sir Robert become restive they will choose another leader. The quantity of rain that has fallen since Sa turday night has done a great deal of mischief to the hay that is yet out, and there is a great deal more than usual at this time ; but much more has been stacked in this county than was grown last year, and the second crop of clover promises to be abundant. There is very little wheat beat down by the heavy rains ; and we hope and believe that crop, generally speaking, is not forward enough to be at all affected by them. The barley in some places is very much laid, and though the oats in many-situations are short, they have very much improved, during the last fortnight. —Brighton Gazette. . .
