MORNING EDITION di ately commenced firing upon us from the fort of Hochung and their war junks (now under sail), which was replied to by the Na. melds with the usual effect, while the boats opened a passage through the stakes, and dashed on to the attack of Hochung and the junks. Lieutenant Bower gallantly leading on the di.. vision under his orders against the latter, whilst the others secured the fort by evading the ditch and entering the enemy's embrasures. Seeing the fall of the fort, the war-junks became panic-struck on the approach of the boats, and were thrown into e% utter confusion that seseral got ashore, the crews jumping over. board immediately they grounded, two junks alone escaping. Lieutenant Bower, in pushing to cut the latter off, discovered Fiesha..kok on the left bank of the river, within a hundred yards of the advanced junk aground, which fort mounting seven guns, opened out a heavy fire of grape upon him. Observing that the junks were abandoned by their crews, he nobly turned all his at tention to his new opponents, whom he drove out of their strong. hold, by passing through the adjoining town and taking them in reverse. In the meantime Mr. Hall dexterously managed in getting his ♦essel through the centre passage of the stakes, which fortunately was just sufficiently wide to admit of her passing, without detain.. ing or giving us the trouble of : emoving any of them. At forty-five minutes past two we returned on board the steamer, after having destroyed all the guns and set tire to Feisha.Kok Fort and the seven war junks, as per margin,* which all blew up be _.re we were out of sight of them. Chase to the two escaped junks recommenced, during which we passed two dismantled forts. At four P.M., we arrived at the large provincial town of Hiangshang, one of the large war junks preceded us about a mile a-head. The dense population thickly crowded the banks, boats, junks, house tops, the large pagoda, and surrounding hill ; both sides of the river were packed by the trading craft of the country in the closest possible order, the centre of the river (which is very narrow here) having merely sufficient space to allow the steamer's paddles hoes to pass clear of the junks moored to its banks. Not the slightest fear was manifested by the people, but several mandarins took to their boats and followed the war junk. We passed a small one anchored in the centre of the town aban doned by her crew ; but fearful of setting fire to the town, which must inevitably have been the case had I consigned her to the flames, and anxious at the same time to secure the large one a-head, - • • ' • • with the mandarin boats, I left her untouched; we closed the two . latter so rapidly that the junk, which mounted five guns, and one of the larger boats ran ashore; all their cress jumped overboard, and left them to their fate; I brought up abreast of them, and de. stroyed both. 'While thus employed the fort of Sheungchap, within two hundred yards of Us, but hidden by some intervening trees, opened its fire upon us, which was instantly returned. I im mediately directed Lieutenant Bower to storm it with the marines ; in five minutes my orders were carried into execution, and its eight guns were demolished ; but from its proximity to the houses I ordered the greatest portion of the powder to be thrown into the river, leaving merely sufncient in the magazine to destroy the fort. A number of troops coming down towards the fort, obliged me to fire two or three shot, which going direc'ly in among the body, scattered and dispersed them in au in stant. At six P.m. the Rink and fart were :ired, and we passed on into a narrow shallow channel, scarcely more than the breadth of a canal, in which we anchored head and stern for the night. At day.light on the morning of the 14th, we weighed and pro ceeded up the river in the steamer's draught of water, and not broader than her own length, grounding occasionally on both sides. At fifty minutes past seven arrived at the large village of Kong_ how ; at eight observed the fort of the same name, at the upper pars of the village, which flanked a strong and broad line of stakes, twenty feet wide, completely across the river, tilled up in the centre by large sunken junks, laden with stones. On discovering the fort we opened cur fire, which was instantly returned by the enemy. As in a:1 the preceding actions, they fled the moment we landed to attack them. They had evidently expected one from the opposite side to that by which we approached them, the walls being piled up with sand-bags outside in that direction. Nine gcns were destroyed here and the fort blown up, after the Ne mesis had made good her passage through the stakes, which was effected after four hours, incessant hard labour, at thirty mi. nutes past twelve P. M assisted by the native; who flocked aboard and round us in great numbers, after the firing had ceased, all ap. parently anxious to aid us in destroying the stakes. At four P.M. arrived off a military station originally consisting of a hundred men, but on our arrival consisting only of fifty; ,tined a shot at the Mandarin's house, which, striking the centre, drove out the small garrison who had screened themselves from our view in it. ; the boats were then sent on shore, and destroyed the whole establishment, and a large Mandarin war-boat, mounting one large gun and two jingalls, and pulling sixty.iour oars. At ten minutes past four proceeded up the river, at thirty minutes past six anchored for the night. At daylight this morning we continued our course upwards; at thirty minutes past seven arrived off the lane village Tamchow, nuclei the banks of the upper part of which a number of soldiers, with matchlocks, were descried, endeavouring to conceal them selves, upon whom a fire of musketry was opened as we passed, which dispersed all those who were unhurt in less than a minute. On moving up to Tsgnei, a large town on the left bank of the river, three forts were passed, all dismantled and abandoned. The custom-house of the latter place was destroyed, as well as a man. ot:.war junk, mounting seven guns, which the crew had quitted on our approach. On proceeding up to 'Whampoa, we passed through a very beautiful country ; three snore dismantled forts were observed in our route. At four P. M . we arrived at this an. chorage, having destroyed five forts, one battery, two military statibqs, and nine men-of-war junks, in which were one hundred and fifteen guns, and eight jingails; thus completing our object by proving to the enemy that the British 11.. g is capable of being displayed throughout their inner waters wherever and whenever it is thought p►oper by us, against any defence or mode they may adopt to prevent it. It is a pleasing gratincation on my part, in being enabled to in. IJrrn your Excellency, that this service has been accomplished with out the loss of a single man on our side, and only thrt•e seamen slightly wounded belonging to her Majesty's ship Semarang. o his Excellency Captain Elliot, my warmest and best thanks are due, for the very ab!e• and friendly acsistanca I received from him throughout the whole of our little expedition; to Messrs. Morrison and Thorns, who accompanied him, 1 felt under the greatest ob:igations for the efficient aid I reeeived from them, by tile knowledge of these gentlemen in the Chinese language, thus affording me the means cf communication through them with the na'ircs in our route, which proved of the highest imoortance ; they fully participated in all the dangers of the expedition, as did like wise Captain Larkins, late of the Honourable East India Company's service, who was an amateur upon the occasion. Of Mr. Hall, master, commanding the Nemesis, it Is impossible for me to speak too highly ; the cool, unwearied, zealous perfor mance of his duties, under circumstances of frequent (longer and difficulty, in traversing a navigation never before passed by an European • boat or vessel ; his gallantry, and the effective aid Ureceived from the N..mesis, repeatedly called forth my warmest admiration. It is unnecessary for me to say more than that, in my humble opinion, he is deserving of every reward that can be bestowed upon him. To Lieutenant William Pedder, R.N., acting as chief officer of the Nemesis, I fret indebted for the able and gallant manner in whichte at all times supported the boats with those of the steamer under his command. The fi , ing of Mr. Edward Crouch, ginmery mate of the " Wel_ lesley," lent to Nemesis, was perfect rifle practice. Our rapid success I regard as mainly attributable to the admirable manner in which he punished the enemy. I beg leave earnestly to recom mend him to your favourable notice and consideration. The conduct of my gallant Firet Lieutenant, J. P. Bower, has always met with my highest approbation. Nothing could have surpassed his anxious zeal and gallantry the last three days. It again becomes my pleasing duty, to draw your particular attention and favourable consideration to this meritorious olficet. Lieutenant Maitland, acting Lieutenant Lysaght, and Lieute_ nant Gordon, of the Royal Marines, as well as Messrs. Noble, Parkhurst, Luard, and Armitage (mates), Mr. Tucker, second master, and Dr. Mackay, assistant-surgeon, are entitled to my best acknow cdg sects for the gallantry and seal they displayed throat bout our operations. Z , CZ n sn and Marines vied with each other in being foremost upon every rtc,sion. inclosed I forward herewith the list of wounded, and have the honour to remain, &c. (Signed) JAMES SCOTT, Captain.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS - FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. yv From an unusual press cf matter, we are compelled yes terday to confine ourselves to a brief summary of the politi cal articles of the Morning Journals. —The Times contains a leading article on the subject of the conduct of Alinisters, with reference to the Administration of Justice Bill, in the course of which, alluding to the present p os i t i on of Ministers, our Contemporary observes The Hou se o f C ommons has given th e m notice to quit, hus declared them unworthy to exercise t h e powers already vested in the Ministers of the Crown, has charged them with treachery to the British Constitution. They say, we will not quit—we will keep our places in defiance of Sou —we appeal from the House of Commons t o th e country ; and then two da)s afterwards, they come down to the same House of Commons, and ask for new powers to be given them pending their appeal, and that without even pretendin g that such a grant is necessary for th e pu bli c good ! The arguments by which they back their request are, if possible, more preposterous than the thing it.rlf." The Morning Post, in an article suggested by th e d e b ate of Tuesday night in the Commons, enteis at some length in o abuse of Minister.. The article contains - netiong worthy of extract. The Morning Herald has an article on the subject of the Corn-law question. in which our Contemporary rails through the greatest part of two co:umns , a g ainst the o pponents o f monopo l y . The Morning Chronicle thus refers to the political tactics of the monopolist faction :—" Thiele is one subject especially on which the _mmrpolist faction I. not to be trusted; their game, in town elections, isto b 0 1 ,4 out illusory promises of mitigating the bread - tax. They laid it on, they will still have kept it on, and they keep it on if they can. Th e y h a ve forgottentha de i decorum of a Legis lative A ssem bly in order to reject inquiry rrn n the most scornful and in su lti ng manner. Their skid in Parliamentary tactics, rind the full force of their party organization, bringing every individual to the vote, have been employed, purposely and sue ,cessfully, to quash the discussion of the subject. They have overpassed the ordinary bounds of party warfare to punish r; the Ili , iistry for d ar i ng to contemp l ate t h e m itigation of this hate ful impost. And now they shrink from fairly going to the country as the bread-tax party." GLOB E. -- Sirlt.lnglislastnight gave expression to the hopes which animate that, by no means small, section of do , Tory party of which he is the leader—and thus disclosed what ought to operate as a warning to the country. We by no means attribute to Sir R. Peel a disposition, even if th; possessed the power, to indulge the " Church Ex tensionists" in their mischievous project of increasing the national burdens for the purpose of " extending" the Church by building a large number of additinial thurches. Sir R. Peel knows well, as every one who observes what is passing around hint must know, that to 4tarry such a project into execution would create disgust in the minds of men of all creeds, not excepting that of the Establishment itself—a feeling which would not merely diminish the influence, but might endanger the stability of the institution it is designed to extend. But should the Tories be called to office, their leaders vott!d not Le allowed to act upon their own opinions. The party which clamour fir " Church ExtenSion," as the panacea for our national disorders, are too sincere in their opinion of the infallibility of their nostrum, and too ardent and p ersever i ng i n t h e i r z e a l to secure its adop tion by means of Parliament, to be tinned aside from - their purpose. Expediency forms no part of their poli tical system. They repudiate it, as alike odious t o flea-en and t o r i g h teous men—the source of weakness to a political party--tir:i abandonment of p r i nc i p l e f or t h e ever-shiftingscaleof convenience. The Church Exten slon schem e was wel l cou r t Sir /./ .. nigh causing a serious breach be colme a last .sezto ia and the moderate Tories in the itt-,liastvotement. Sir _Robert Peel strongly urged tarn; w as bring it • forward at such a client : itughlY ine 7 Te-. the party hy exciting vnrfal fa ling tha cl u'ltrY against it. The Ilia practicable representative of Oxford Vniver.sity con tinued firm to his purpose -; and threatened to with draw his suppprt from the ,empectant Premier i the did not show his approbation of the scheme by voting for his resolution. It was notorious that Sir R. Peel's constrained, sulky, silent vote on that occasion was anything but sa-. tisfactory to Sir R. H. Inglis and the Church Exten sionists; and the absence from the House of the "worldly politicians" of the party—some of whom were heard to wish the motion and its author at a plat a which must not be named to " ears polite"—by no means tended to dimi nish the dissatisfaction. • STANDARD.—It will be seen with regret that the hurry and confusion into which the greedy tenacity of office by Ministers has driven all the important legislative business of the country, have compelled Sir Robert Inglis to defer his motion upon Church Extension for another Parliament. The postponement is in one sense unsatisfac tory, because it is a calamity that a single hour is lost in providing for the religious wants of the people ; but there is the consolatory assurance, on the other side, that the next Parliament will be one better disposed 0 second the exertions of the admirable Member for Ox ford University. Sir Robert last night presented 164 peti tions in favour of Church Extension, making with thOse previously presented by him no less than 500 ! Last night exhibited another shabby, and therefore charac teristic, trick, played by Ministers. At an early period of the evening, Lord John Russell volunteered an expression of regret that it would not be possible to proceed properly with the Bribery at Elections Bill ; this volunteer ex pression Sir Robert Peel understood as a formal aban donment of the measure, and left the House, saying that the Noble Lord " had exercised a sound discretion in withdrawing the Bill." Sir Robert Peel was fol lowed by many of his friends ; and no sooner were their backs turned than Lord J. Russell moved the com mittal of that very Bill which' lie had but a few minutes before pretended to abandon. Mr. Wynn, Sir R. Inglis, and others, remonstrated against' this flagrant de ception, but Lord John happened, as there were only about 70 Members present, to have a majority, and he was determined to make the most of so rare an op portunity. Accordingly, he proceeded with his • Bill. The thing is of little importance or interest, except as an illustration of the tricky propensities of the Ministers, for the only fault of the Bill is, that it will be wholly in operative. COURIER.—Lord .John Russell may chance to find hereafter, it' he do not find already, the inconvenience of a too well established repute for cunning and chica nery. In the end, even those who cultivate these arts or qualifications with the most complete success, often finish by overreaching themselves, in the overflow of their own zeal and confidence. Lord John afforded last evening an other sample of his peculiar dexterity for achieving a small advantage by getting rid of a troublesome Mentor, when standing in the way of a favourite scheme to be surrepti tiously accomplished. The Bribery at Elections Bi.l stood on the vote pap-r for discussion in Committee last night—a Bill clearly of too much importance to be summarily disposed of, or to be entertained at all further, perhaps, at so advanced a period of a Session, which, it is not only understood, but agreed on by compact, is to terminate within a very few (lays. Moved apparently by these reasonable considcra dons, Lord John proposed to postpone the measure. He said that, "if he could hope that the House would be able to devote a sufficient degree of attention to the de tails, this vras certainly a period at which it was mo,a important to have such a Bill passed ; but he very much feared that they would not be able to give the sub ject such a degree of attention as would be neces sary and satisfactory to the House and the country, if they were to go on with it." To which Sir Robert - Peel rejoined that " he had voted for the second reading, and he thought that it was most important for those who wished to act fairly at the elections that an accurate defi nition of bribery should be laid down." And, after re marking on the difficulties which beset the question of the definition of what wa4 bribery, he concluded thus— " However, considering the very few days which must elapse before the session closed, he was inclined to think that the Noble Lord had exercised a wise discretion in withdrawing the Bill." Shortly afterwards the Right Honourable Baronet quitted the House, with the under standing, of course, that the Bill would not be proceeded with. Some further business was then disposed of, after which, to the surprise of all the Members present, Sir Robert, as before said, being absent, Lord John Rus sell proposed to go into committee on the Bribery Bill, and actually persisted in forcing on the discussion of various clauses, although distinctly reminded by Sir Robert Inglis and Colonel Sibthorp that Sir Robert Peel " had left the House under the distinct itnpression that the bill would not be proceeded with." It is not necessary to characterize conduct so shuffling and incoi-- sistent, as the bare recital of the facts is sufficiently . .cOn demnatory. MONEY 'MARKET and CIE Y NEWS.

EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW RAILWAY. (From the Edinburgh Cow ant.) We had much pleasure in visiting, a short time ago. wee of the principal works in the line of the Edinburgh and Crlts gow Railway, and particularly to obsi rye the rapid progress which was then making in every part towards the completion of this great undertaking. Our visit going eastward commenced with the gre a t brid ge Lear Falkirkfer the purpose of carry ing the railway across the Union Canal at the Locks near No. 16. Owing to the line of railway crossing the Canal at en oblique angle, and to the necessity imposed upon the Company of crossing both the Locks and the carrisge-vi ay with a single arch, the span has been extended to tin less than 130 feet, which is ec,uai to that of the celebrated bridge over the Deriburn, at Aberdeen. Not bring, however, qui•e so elevated above the springing, the strain en the abutmetas is greater, and the material also, though of excellent qua lity, being brought from the well-known quarry of Alilifield, or Kingo.rdie, near Dundee, is still softer than the gra nite, so that the work is altogether one of greater difficulty, awl requiring much caution and skill, both in the design and exe cution. This great arch, when we saw it, was jusecompleted, and the workmen were engaged slacking the centre, which has been since taken out, and everything presents the appearance of strength and stability. the arch stones are five feet deep at the abutments, and three feet at the crown; and there are in the arch alone about 20,000 cubic feet of atone, or upwards ef 1,500 tons, the whole of which was laid in about ten days. To all appearance, the works here will very soon be completed, and ready for the laying of the rails. The next work of im portance is the Cadandes Tunnel, 830 yards in length. and passing ur.dcr Callender Wood, at the depth of 130 feet. The whole of this was nearly completed; at out 80 yards only in the length of the tunnel remaining to be executed, and upwards of 20 yards have been since finished. At the east end, the tunnel opens into a vast excavation 75 feet in depth,—and when the slopes are completed round and round, it will have the appearance from the east of a great am phitheatre. To the east of the tunnel, and between it and Linlithgow, a considerable part of the permanent rails are lad dawn, and this all important part of the undertaking aetears to be executed with every regard to strength, solidity, and accu racy. The strength of the rails is 75Ihs weight to each yard, and they are supported at every four feet mo-tly by substantial whin-stone blocks, two feet square, weighing five or six ewt. On the embankments the reds are supported by strong larch sleepers. Between the -tunnel and Linlithgow a considera ble portion of cutting and embankment stilt remains to be executed ; but, to facilitate this, we observed a beautiful loco motive engine, made by Feldiegton of Glaegow, ou its way to the rails, tar conveying tie stuff from the cutting forwent to the embankments, and this engine is now actively employed ia its work. Wherever the permanent rails sr laid down, and the stuff requires to be conveyed a great distance, a. in ;he present instance, the saving of expense, aed, still more, of time in executing the work, is very material, as the engine is ativsys capable of conveying the stuff for miles in distance as fast or faster than human labour is able to fill and empty the vaggons, and it was calculated that witn activity and long hours work, the contractors, with this engii.e, would be enabled to heap up upon the embankments nearly 1,500 tons of stuff dails.

This werk, which hems ettch a striking object, as seen horn the CL seow ro id, about eight miles 11,1/1 Edinburgh, forms in itself a vast undertaking, con sisting of no fewer than thirty-six continuous arches, each fifty feet epee, and rising from sixty to eighty-five feet above the surface of the valley, besities seven arches more at the turn pike road, separated from the others by a ride of higher ground, and an embankment 'the great magnitude of this work, second almost to none, even in Englend ; the extraor dine, y number of the arches, and theirlight and lofty appe aranee and symmetry, all combine to renderthis a very magnificent and imposing structure, and quite an ornament to the district and lwenery around it. The work under Messrs . . Gibb and Son is proceeding with great rapidity, and with all the advantages from the improved machinery which they have contrived for bringing forward the materials, and laying the stones of the different arches in their planes. The pets have been all long since carried up. as well as all the arches of the smaller via duct, and of the great viaduct twenty-seven arches were thrown, and they were going on at the rate of four arches per month, an that a very short period will be required to bring the work to a termination. We have just yisi' Ed this vialuct again, and everything confirms the above anticipation, thirty three out of the thirty-six arches are now thrown, and by the middle of this month the whole of the remaining arches will lie finished, the key-stone of the last arch being proposed to be laid on the 18th, and nothing will then remain hut to bring forward the superstructure of walls and parapets, already ad vanced to the 28th arch, and the word will be ready for the laying down of the permanent rails. Between the valley of the Almond and the city, the country being pretty level, there are no works ef any Funicular magni tude to retard the completion of the railway. The cent. 's for tie line here have been taken by .11r. Evans, a highly respectable coetractor from England, and who has executed with success exten-ive contracts on some of the great English railways. He is now pushing on the different work-i with great am ivity. The bridges across the deferent highways are many of them in a very forward state. The bridge over the Water of Leith, the pr ncipal work of masonry, is all but com pleted. '1 he ler.g embankment through the valley of the Water of Leith hes now essumed, as seen from the Toad, quite a finished appearance, and the rest of the embankmeets and excavations are rapidly advancing, relays of men being occu pied day and night, aided by a locometives engine, which may now be seen near Corstorphine, constantly plying along the line with its load of earth waggons- Suah is the forward state of the works on the eastern division of this raiiwa3, and we understand the. on the west they are advancing with equal ener.iv, and there are only one or two points where any particular difficulty or delay is likely to occur, parricuLriy the Croy leek coating, where a mass of hard whin stm.e, tifiy or sat) , feet deep, still remains to ! e excavated for a very short distance. On the whole, however, when we consider the ve:st extent and magnitude of the works which have been executed from end to end of this line, and the short period which has elapsed since the ettn mencement, the progress which ha , been made is truly remarkable, arid there can now he very little reason ter doubt that, in the course of three months, the whole Ine will be opened to the public. An hour anti a half and two hours wi 1 then be the regular times of travelling betwet.n Fein burgh and Glasgow, and the expense, ee believe, Kill mit ex ceed from 4s. to Bs. by the different classes of carriages. These are the results. to which all the operations and works above described ate bast nieg ; and when we consoler the advantages which must arise to both cities, and to Scotland generally, fom such new and extraerdin .1 y tad ities of inter= course, and all the effects which usually follow in the triiti of eeeh imp? ovements, the opening of this rade ay eat not but be viewed as an event of no oruinary interest and ietportanee.

In the House of Lords, the Earl of WILTON, who seems to have a grealy ear, crammed by some Irish pur -1 veyor of outrages, inquired of the Marquis of Non- MANDY about a me; tin;; to promote repeal of the Union, and about a disgraceful riot which the Noble Lord said had taken place in Manchester. We saw the account of this meeting in a Manchester paper, and though there was a hostile dispodtion evinced between parties, the good temper of Sir CHARLES SHAW had prevented any mischief. The Marquis of NORMANDY treated the matter lightly, and said he had not made any inquiries, but he believed the Noble Earl had received a very exaggerated state meat. . The Noble Earl f.aitl he complained especially of three county Magistrates being present, Who had not attempted to quell the clLturbance. The Marquis of BUTE having moved the third rend ing of the Jews Peclaration Bill, the Bishop of LLAN DAFF opposed the motion, became the Bill was calcu lated to strike a vital blow at the Constitution.

PEEL obtained leave to bring in a Bill to amend the law relating to trying controverted elections. The bribery at the Cambridge election was the only subject which occasioned any discussion. Mr. WARD moved a resolution that the ATTORNEY-GENERAL be instructed to prosecute Mr. MANNERS SUTTON, Mr. LONG, and Mr. SWAN, for bribery, at the Cambridge election. 4 _ uponed his motion Several Memb,:rs having spoken on the sulect, ani the sense of the House having been declared against in cluding Mr. MANNERS SUTTON in the resolution, Mr. WARD withdrew that gentleman's name. The resolu tion, as to Mr. LONG, was agreed to without a division, and the House divided as to that part of it relating to Mr. SWAN, which was carried by 78 to 46. Several Bills were forwarded a stage, including the Bribery at Elections Bill, without any observation. Mr. T. DuNcomnE obtained leave to bring in a Bill to en force the printing and speedy delivery of copies of alp registers of electors. At a Quarter past Eight o'Clock the Iroase adjourned till this day. Mr. WOLRYCHE W lIITMORE, an old and staunch supporter of the Corn-laws, has, we are glad to see, again taken up arms against this legislative iniquity. 'nye are not trtsl..tOraled, Mr. AVIIITAIORE is both a landowner and poe sesses consider..ble influence in his neighbour hood with landowners and ftrtners. His pam phlet accordingly takes the shape of a letter to tie agnculturistS of the .coAnty of Salop. What ever he says, therefore, will be received with deference and authority ; and we borrow from him with pleasure the faro ring calm and std rive view of the effect of altezin• the Cor::;ali The question is indeed a mighty one ; on it, connecte as it is with all the other mohepoties of the country, ee peih:s the future welthre or gradual decline of - mighty empire : tint it is a questieo the more of tra.,!: than Of price. Some effect, no doubt, and compared with tee present high prices of food, a considerable effect, would be produced by the change in the law ; bu as compared ivith average prices, with those we hai! had for the last ten years, or coital expect in to years to come, without an alteration in the law, th elrect :.:,old be comparatively rifling. I hoist beg yop to the difierenee ktmeen the prices of this ito tip hie; year, and the average price to which 1 refer ; to the least observant it will be apparent that the high: price of the present period is alone the result of harvests of deficient produce ; that it will cease with the oc !asion that gave it birth ; and that, judging from all former e.:- perience, it will be followed by a reaction, great it: proportion to the present rise. That this effect will le produced is, I have said, not only consistent with foci(: experience, hut obvious, when we consider that puree neceskirily stimulates produezien, aid that in creased growth, or, as it is called, a greatee breadth , e wheat, in conjunction with favourable seasons, alway, produces a larger quantity than is required for the coo, smnption of our own population ; the consequence nt - cessarily is, a great fall in price. You can reinemlre two distinct periods in which this effect was produced-- 1822 aed 1335. In both cases the price of wheat below 40s. per quarter ; that such will happen agaie. under our present system, at no distant period, it re quires no extraordinary foresight to predict. I speak, then, not of the price of any (riven year, but of a series of years ; the only way to judge in such matters. Now, the average of any extended period under the existihe law will give about 575. per quarter ; that is, the averwe on which the tithe composition is founded ; it is that which ever - : respectable valuer of land takes as his basis, and that on which every prudent farmer about to take land, reckons. I repeat, then, if we take 575. per quar ter as the average price for wheat. the change COilLelre plated will not make a vast difference in the price. The measure proposed by the Government is to substitute a duty of Bs. per quarter for the present scale. Wiwi would be the probable effect upon price of such a change I :hall not trouble you with figures, but merely state that after the best and most impartial consideration I have been able to give the subject, I am inclined to be- Here that a free trade . .in corn would not admit of any considerable quantity of wheat being sold in our markets . under front 455.- to 48s. per quarter, upon an average of years, and that th e p a y men t o f a d uty o f Bs. would raise it to 525. or 535. You will perceive I have not stated the latter prices quite equal to the sum to which the simple addition of the duty to the price of wheat in bond, or without duty, would raise it ; for instance, if th , .. price without d u ty were 475. p er quarter , Bs. added ee; duty might be expected to raise it to 535. Ido net think it would raise it beyond 325. er 535. Taking these circumstances into consideration, I can not entertain any apprehension of the slightest ill effect to our own agriculture by the change. I believe we shall consume easily all the torn we can grow, and all cue can import ; but I believe, also, we should want more of meat, and of beer, too—matters of immense mon:ent to the graziers, the breeders of stock, and the barley growers of this country ; and who, amongst the agriculturists, will not come under one or the other these descriptions? With regard to these latter poit , . it should be borne in mind that. the advantage the Bei tish and Irish farmer have over his foreign coat petitor is - much greater than in the article or wheat. Meat fit ti,r the butcher, and barley to good .alt, are both resu.t of a high state of ell,,vation, and are rarely pr. , - dtt:ed in perfection in those ruder states of agricultur, whence alone we can expm to draw our styptics. SVecould quote with pleasure a 7 4 Tc;itflecti of this useful and well-ilned pat:lpL:et, but w, must - content ours Aves with recomniending it the perusal of our agricultural readers, at th same time protecting ourselves by adding tint; most of the arguments which Mr. W. WHIT MORE directs against the present system ark: equally foreibie when ainnied to a fixed dmv. If it would be advantageous to have wheat 525., with an extensive trade, it would be inor advantageous to have it at 445., with a trade cer tain to be extensive and beneficlul, in proportion as all restrictions were removed. We must refer, however, to the first quot!i- Con We have made in order to illustrate a prin ciple which seems to be misapprehended by sonic of our Contemporaries. Mr. WniTmonE refers to the two years, 1822 and 1833, when corn was very low priced, and he says " that high price necessarily stimulates production, and that in creased growth, or, as it is called, a greater brewith of wheat, in conjunction with favourable seasons, always produce a larger quantity than iz; required for the consumption of our own popula tion." To meet the consequent fall of price, and save the agriculturis!s harmless from growing a great breadth ofwheatunder the stimulus of the high price, Mr. M'CuLLocu has proposed that a bounty, nearly equivalent to the tax which raises the price, should be given on all corn ex ported. Both Mr. Wimmones and Mr. M'Cur..- LOCH'S statements establish the fact that—the rise of price caused by a tax is, and must be, in favourable seasons, in seasons of abundance, when every heart should be glad--extremely in jurious to the firmer. We have repeatedly in sisted on the same fact, and we are glad to have it confirmed by such unquestionable authority. But injurious as is abundance to the fitrmer in favourable seasdns; the high price of unfavour able seasons, which stimulates him to extend the growth of wheat, is ten-fold more injurious to the poor consumer. The injury to the farmer is caused by there not being moutits enough, having means of purchase, to buy the abundance of favourable seasons ; and, looking at the prin ciple ofpopulation, whichc4rries with it di vi,ion c't labour, extension of skill, and increase of knowledge, which is therefire the increase o mouthg, with an increased means of purcins,?, we are entitled to say that the wily reason wit‘,- ihere are lint mouths enough to consume the altundauee of favourable season is the law which raises the price, by shortening the supply, awl 11 - oithao s ort or e.xktence. if frl fariVWl' i)ecliriiary ~i: ;), coTiswt;:-r, THH• Ii info ()J.' .1 rdl• ~.;;•e~ ]]'..~l: .. . ' f CCOme cheLlp, that the United to tiv. claugp. compired 1) ISI7 a ( i j`r•ir,r,& is 1t :l and ilepeu:..i.ing on forr,igli s:F2p. Bat how has the nation been kept iudop.ndent of foreign nations ? How h 7 ,I':.-'roc price fallen much below the price of 1817; and bow has the supply been ke-)t, po - itically speaking, safe, if ilot regular? We amiwer, by starving the population, in dear years, down to our own means of supply, and exciting population with fitful, fearful irregularity, in those abundant years, which the law impiously converts into a curse to the husbandman. The phenomena ofwl rich the Corn-law advocates boast' as the result of their system, are the consequences of large masses of population being most horribly put death in years of scanty supply. The sticklers for the Corn-law, who are also sticklers for the Constitution, ought not to over look the possible effects of the fbrmer on the latter; and if it be endangered by al :ernations of famine and plenty, they ought not to sacrilee what is, according to them, the highe.rinterest for the less. It may be difficult to trace the great changes in the Constitution, of which the Conser vatives complain, to the Corn-law, but they will not deny that thos changes have taken place in conjunction with that law. They can hardly doubt that greater changes have been male in the Constitution since 1815, when their beloved starvation law has been maintained, than in any other 25 years of our history, not being years of actual civil war, or embracing a revolution. In those yearS the Tory Ministry, with all the principles it maintained, was shamefully routed, the Irish Church cat down, and not a few rotten boroughs, though m tny have been lefc, cut The an' ient poor-law, which gave security to property, by giving the poOr an interest in pre s2rving, it, has been abrogated, and most o our Saxon institutions for individual jurotection l a-e been superseded by . a French i fied system of By putting an end to old corp )rations, to t')" boroughmongerirr; system, al , 1 by enr.ti (inure 5, prescription, the best •4:.1,;1•, : v1:•,,i i. tutions, has been wnolly extingnis! - :cil nod authority have linen i t cont-ary, ,t, moment the masses wait and for till oppckr- tuoity to destroy the who!;• s stein.

Those who wish to preserve the Constitution should unite with us, and now make one great and neednil exertion to extingaish the Corn-law, and so restore, if possible, the law of Parliament to the respect of the people. Several of the Tory Journals have made n great outcry against Lord JOHN RUSSELL, for proceeding with the Bribery at Elections Bill on Thursday evening, after he had entered into a compact, as they say, with Sir ROBERT PEEL, not to proceed with it. if the public believe the Times, Standard, and Courier, never did Par. liamentary leader behave so scandalously as Lord J. RUSSELL. Sir R. PEEL himself, however,: eems to entertain no such opinion. He Was in the House last night, and made a motion con nected with the übject of elt.ctions, which was a most favonrable opportunity to advert to the Bribery Bill, had he. any ;owl. 'ground to com plain of Lord 3, RUSSE-LL'S conduct, but not tt, word did he say. What can we conclude, but that the Tory Journals have poured out un warranted accusations and reproaches ? In fact, Lord J. RUSSELL would never think of tak ing .any step of which the Hon, Baronet, backed by his majority of one, would disapprove. The coarse he took, 6ierefore, had the sanction of Sir IL PEEL ; a:A our Contempnnries inistPkenly applied olii,crvations, which v,-crc r.onfitiLti to sofne cial!ses of the Bill, to the measure. ft. would really beconze the .11.,urnaL; it) t,Yain accufato ipZrrniP,Lion, ,tefore they ht calumny and shit:lei: on any In the course of fw. , . evening the Report of th Bill was bron' , lit up :wd agreed, to, without Sir RonEaT PELL, or an3r Tory Member, saying a single word about the very unhandsome con dtvt which the Tory Journals had discovered in Lord JOHN RUSSELL. The truth, we believe, is, that some ingenious persfin about the-Ti:ves . in vented- the misrepresentation, and the two hunt le Aillowers of that Journal repti.t.ll its errors. The Highway-rates Bill, we see, enables ti.e Justices who are very generally turnpike-road proprietors, to apportion a part of the Highway. rates to the repairs of turapike-roads. it 4• a power of appeai froal the said Justices hi Petty Sessions to thethemselves atQuarterSessions.The only limitation is that information must be exhibited by the clerk or treasarer that the funds of the trust are insufficient to repair the road. If this Bill do not give rise, should it become a law, to gross jobbing and gross misapplication of the High way-rates, it is well adapted to promote and en courage that customary occupation of country gentlemen. We anticipated yesterday most of the news contained in the Paris journals of \Vednesday. In the Chamber of Peers on that day the Keeper of the Seals read a Royal Ordinance for the withdrawal of the Recruitment Bill,lwhich is thus abandoned for another year. The Constitutionnel contradicts the absurd statement of the Gazette de Fiance about the existence of a partition ;rent}•, but acids with morn gravity than common sense "WVhatmaybe - readilybelievcdis that a secret understanding exists between England and Russia to ahow the Eastern ques tion to remain unsettlee, and to retard indefinitely the signa ture of the final protocol. We believe that these Powers un derstand each other marvellou,ty well as to the profitable use of the time wh ch they thus gain ; England, in exciting Mehemet Ali to fresh acts of resistance, and Russia in raising against the Turk-sh Gievornmei,t all the Christian population of Asia Aiinor and Eurol.ean Turkey. There certainly is an Anglo- Ru,sian provocation in all these insurrections. It is probable that England and Russia are occupied in entangling the quvs lion more anti rno:te. But the time is not yet come tor &aw ing the sword to cut the gordian knot." The nonsense of this view of the cause of the troubles in European Turkey is so ably exposed by the illiniste dal journal La i'russe, that we have pleasure in making the following extract from its columns "It i , perfectly true that Lord Pahneraten did net atta-h his si e mahirt , at the L:st meeting of the conference, but to this ti.ct, we 1 founded in itseif, have been attach e d fantas tical exp.anati o ns which have completely changed !ts bear ing.
