The expectations I - fnrrnVd t;viten . I first came arlimig you' have ben folly rea6cd, I feel.a confident expectation that I shall be ho notified by-bking your Representative. The advantage to a trading community. of being represented by a Commercial man, has been very generally acknowledged. From these who appreciate the inestimable - benefits derivable from Free Trade, I have received assurances of unqualified support. The. sentiments of Religious Freedom which I pro fess, have been resronded to by the enlightened friends of. the Church, as well as by the Dissenters. - Upon the subject of the Poor-laws, on which alone my oppo nents rest their claim to your support, I should wish the Elecinrs,te: ask them what their views on this question are ; they vituperate the New Law, and would get rid of it, but what then would they have no Poor-laws, or would they return to the old system again? Would they once more adopt the plan of making up the deficiency of wages front the poor-rates? Would they uo away with the popular election of guardians, and have them appointed as formerly by the Magistrates? I suspect they find it easier to abui.e, than to amend. Electors! I wish to he perfectly explicit on this important subject. A• Bill is now before the House of Commons for the alteration and amendment of the New Poor-law Aet, and if I have the honour to-be returned as your Representative, I shall lend my zealous and hearty assistance' in modifying such parts of it as seem to press hardly upon the poor. - With regard to the important quastion of out-door relief, I am strongly of opinion that irilarge trading towns like yours the workhouse cannot properly be used for a test of destitution, as it tray in an agriculti..ral district. In a time of sudden and gene ral stagnation „of trade, we should consider well before we break'up the working-man's home • and in a case like this, I think-that a elitcretionary power 4:f acting may very properly be confided .to the Guardians of the poor. But after all, and above all, the primary object of legislation should be to secure to the working man the full value for his labour, and this object I am confident can only be effected by a total repeal of the Coin.laws, as you know .from experience that dear bread lowers wages and cheap bread raises them. I want justice to the working man. not tliit heshouldbedependent npen charity. Geittlernen —1 will cot advert at any length to the strange and unnatural coalition that has taken place against me. I cannot but re g ret that any real Reformers should be found in the ranks of my opponents, but 1 rely upon the sound g ood sense of my countrymen to dispel the delusion, and I still ex pect to find them on my side at the day of election. Gentlemen,—My cause is in your hands: Will you have a Tory, or a Reformer? and a Reformer as anxious as any man to vindicate this rights of the poor. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, With great respect, Your very obedient servant, G. G. do H. LARPEN T. Nottingham, April 22, 1041. rrHE CLASS LECTURES AT THE AL ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.

THURSDAY NIGHT.—The noisy part of the election has now commenced, bands of music, flags, and crowds o! people collecting in every part. The canvass being nearly concluded, both parties have time to give way to a little mirth and merriment. Mr. Lcrpent has not received so many promises as Sir John Hub house and General Ferguson had at the last election, many of the Liberal party remaining neuter; but there is no doubt that when the poll commences they will hasten to record their votes for Larpent. A grand procession has been announced in a blue Tory bill, to do honour to Mr. Walter, " for his un flinching advocacy of the rights of the poor man, and his deter mined opposition to the iniquitous Poor law." The flags and banes began to assemble -as ear l y as t wo o'clock. At that hou r M r . Pitkeithley addressed the first di vision from the windows of the Black's head, a high Tory house, advising them to keep order, to behave with decorum, and to let their procession be remarkable for its regularity and quietness. All the afternoon flags were visible, parading about the town, and at seven o'clock a meeting was held in the Market-place to agree to the address. Mr. Edward Cox was in the chair, and Mr. Whitehead moved an address to Mr. Walter for his uniform kindness and exertions in behalf of the poor, and his opposition to the unconstitutional Poor-law Bill. The number of persons assembled composed many thou sa,ids, and the address was agreed to most unanimously. Two persons from Derby and Leicester delivered the sentiments of the Chartists of those towns as in favour of Mr. Walter. The address was then taken up to Mr. Walter, who returned a nr.st gracious answer to it, thanking them for their kindness in grant ing,the address. The whole the n qu i e tly separate d, nor was the peace of the town disturbed in the slightest degree. Mr. Larpent, at ahe. close of .the canvass, has isued an ad dress to his supporters, in which he' slates that the expectations Ile formed when he came among them have been fully real:so, and that he feels a confident expectation that he shall be re turned as their representative.—[The address will be found In nother part of The Sun. j TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Nottingham, April 22, 1841. Sr hope and trust when a candidate again comes from London to present himself for Nottingham your good city will send us something better than Mr. Walter : he has only one idea— " The Neutralization of Centralization 1 the Commis- sioners of the Poor-law Bill.' This is all he has told us, and truly, probably all he know. Alteration of the Corn-laws—Alteration of Tariff, &c., he comprehend !—No ! Ultra-Tories, ultra. Chartists, anybody, compose his agitat ing associates. After kindly relieving him of a little of his money, we will return him—the rejected of Nottingham. [We have received another letter, signed "A Moral Force Man," stating in most indignant language that one of the Chartist leaders has become a traitor to his cause; and sold him self to Mr. Walter's friends. In a p'stscript the writer adds, " the above indicates but a faint and favourable glimpse of his real character. You may denounce him as a traitor in the most unmeasured terms." He must be bad indeed, if the de scription we have received is only a "favourable glimpse," for it is so wrongly drawn that we should not be justified in pub lishing it. ] HIRED BREAD TAXERS DIS GUISED AS CHARTISTS. (Ft om the Anti- Bread-Tax Circular, late Anti- Corn-law Circular). In our last we alluded in general terms to the circumstance that Nightingale, the Manchester Chartist leader, had been hired by the Gladstone party to go to Walsall to oppose Mr. Smith. The following particulars of the bargain entered into on the occasion can be substantiated on oath, and we dare the parties implicated to disprove our statement It was Mr. Wilkins who suggested that Nightingale should be sent for. The messenger sent from Walsall took with him a letter from Mr. Wilkins, introducing him as a trusty emissary of the Carlton Club ; and to whom do our readers suppose this letter was addressed? • Why to Mr. Sowler, of the Manchester Courier ! The messenger delivered his credentials on the Sun day morning, and then Mr. Sowler, jun., accompanied him to N;ghtingale's tap-room. Nightingale bargained for'. thirty pieces of gold and his exi"ences, and accompanied the messen ger to Walsall on Sunday afternoon, selling his services for the same number of pieees (thirty) for which Judas Iscariot agreed to betray his Lord and Master. It was a sore disap pointment to the bread taxers that the people at Walsall, in stead of listening to Nightingale, walked quietly away as soon as he commenced speaking. The bread taxers, enraged at his failure, then broke faith with the, traitor, and would pay him only fifteen pieces of gold, with which the creature took his departure. It is said of - tbe traitor Judas, that after he be trayed his Lord he went out and hanged himself. We'have not heard that the Chartist traitor has followed his example, but we hope the exposure will induce the honest portion of the Chartists to inquire into the character of the men whu set themselves up as their leaders." s Manchester Times. These facts are not only important as proving an individual case, but they afford a clue to the secret mot yes of others who are still acting the very same part as Nightingale. There are two or three men in Manchester, whose ostensible occupation is that of Chartist lecturers; that is, they pretend to be the missionary advocates of the principles of the Charter. 'I hose principles are universal suffrage, vote by ballot, annual Parlia ments, paid . representatives, and no property qualification. These men profess to aim at carrying the Charter, not by physical force, but by moral means—by reason and ar gument. ' The avowed object is to convince the public mind of the justice of their cause. What then would be the natural and rational course of such lecturers if true to the principles of Chartism . ? Why, obviously, to take the Charter in hand, and to make converts to it doc trines. But the actual employment of these men is to follow our lecturers and attend public meetings for the purpose of obstructing, by a variety of manoeuvres, every demonstration against the bread tax. Mark the actual circumstances under which . they can find leisure and means to travel from place to place to .oppose our agents! Twenty to one at least of the Mem bers of the House of Commons are against the five points which they pretend to wish to see become the law of the la d ; they con stantly assert that the entire middle class ant also against them ; and yet with these formidable impediments to overcome, instead of labouring to convert the public to the principles of the Charter, they bestow their time and attention, and employ the money which they say is furnished by Chartists, ix ob structing anti-bre a d- tax meet i ngs ! L as t Monday Mr. Paultort de:ivered a lecture at Oldham, when lo! three of these Char tist lecturers were there to oppose him. A short time ago another of our lecturers was at Leicester, and one of these worthies started up against him. Yet these men profess to reside in Manchester! We can vouch for the expense that attends the labours of our Lecturers. How do these poor working-men find the money for travelling expenses and support, to say nothing of salaries, during the s e excursions ? Our ways and means are published to the world in the munificent subscriptions of the members of the Leag ue, but where doe s the money come from for our opponents, vlo profess to be poor labouring men ? We think there can be but one answer to this inquiry after the dis closures made before the Walsall Election Committee. We shall be greatly obliged if our friends of the press and speakers at anti-bread•tax meetings will direct public atten tio.i to the practices of th ese c h aracters. Th e Examiner, of Saturday last, has well remarked, that " it is only necessary to expose this system of hiring brawlers, contrary to the English stem of fair play, to en sure it s d estruct i on. ' The fact once known, there will soon be an end of the disgraceful nuisance ; while the detection of the pay-system accounts readily for, the small number of the disturbers, the perseverance of their vir tue, and the loudness of their cries. It also accounts for the secession of the more rational Chartists, who are manifestly ashamed of their company. ,* Mr. Pitkeithly and the hired Chartists at NottinghaM la bowing on Lehall of Mr. Walter may take a hint from this. Their mission., and ti.at of Nightingale to Walsall, have the Same moving cause.--En. Sun, - _ _ SPIBIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FLOM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. C II RONICL Times of yesterday, in an [eide intst:eed to cement the new-horn friendship Le:weea Con servatism and Chat teen, puts forth all its rowel's of argu mert to show' ' 6 that there is every possible reason why the Chartists et Nett ugham should support the atoi- Ministerial candidate." For ones we hate the pleesure of .subscribing usireservedly to the opinion et our Content poi art'. Yes, there is every possible reason why the consistent and eleer-seeirg Chaitist should prefer the Tory to the Whig candidate. 'recite is every possible rrason why he should detest, and, ny every means in his power, seek to overthrow the Whig Government, in whose - policy he finds an insurmosneehle barrer to the realization cf his schemes of sot i d revoltei in. In epeekirg of the Chartists, it is necessary t disiirguish e weee the fell veers of Feargus O'Connor and chose ho sleets the views of Messrs Lovett, Collins, Vincent, &c., who are fiercely denounced in the Northern Star, the newspaper of Feargus, as utterly unworthy of public cur fiilenee, and es little eetter' than traitors to tee walking elssses.

With men who have such ob je'cts to view, those who seek for reform as a in , ass, not of destruction but of reuevation and increased stability, have noteisg in common. This is the sect tst of the predilee tiors of the Ceartets fur a Tory Government. As long s s a Government attached to the institutions of the country nod resolute in deforms of social order, but at the same time unfettered by obstinate pro judices, and liberal-minded eneug,h to throw itself frankly on 'public opinion, and on the i stelligence of the middle and more icipecteble of tee wi eking classes as its surest support—in other words, as ions; as a Government acting on the maxims and principles of the Reform Bill, of Negro Rosen cipetion, Tithe Reform, Municipal Reenne Justice to Ireland, and the varieus other measures which consti tute the policy of the Whig administrations of the last ten years—remains at the head of affairs, so log', as the intelligent Chartist leaders know well by experience, there does wet exist the siighiest possible chance for any schemes which eaveur cf revoluiine But give them a few years of Castlereagh government, outrage public feeling by a low attempts to " coerce the unruly wills of the people," drive Ireland to rebellion by the application de few well timed Registration Bills, disgust the needle classes of England by a few declarations like the memorable one of the Duke of Welliegton against all reform, and the cause rif Chartism is by nts means so desperate. G.ven a Po lignac AdminiEtratioe, a revolution of Jaly is always a possible product. TIMES.—We observe that an article uhich we pub lished on Thursday has been mistaken by a respectable morning Contemporary a , an " explosion " of anger against the Conservative patty in general, on acecunt of some supposed lukewarmness of the Nstougham Con servatives in their support of Mr. Walter. Now, as we never had the smallest reason to believe that any such lukewarmness existed, it is scarcely necessary for us to disclaim the imputation of having written under the influence of the feeling vsbigh our Contemporary imagines. We in tended, not to attack the Conservative statesmen, but toWara them rf the probable consequences of perseverance in a ' feeble and uti-Conservative course of policy. For this rea son, and for this cause only, we made a fact, the occurrence of ehich was within our knowledge, serve us a teat for such remarks as we thought suitable to the occasion. It is insinuated that we invented the fact for our own pur peses, as en isatrument for conveying our own sentiments in a gratuitously ccarse and intemperate manner; we" are even accused of having " designated the leaders eft the Conservative party a set of scoundrels." We teerifore think it necessary to explain, that when we quoted' the strong and offhand expression of one whom we knew to be an honest man and a staunch Conservative, to the effect that, by turning out the present Ministry, the country would only gain the substitution of " one set of scoundrels for another," we had not the remotest idea of adopting a phrase which no reasonable man would apply, calmly' and seriously, in its literal sense, to Lord Lansdowt e, or Lord Jelin Russell, much less to such men es Lord Stanley, Lod Lyndherse and Sir Robert Peel. We disapprove the phrase, and gem it up altogoher, as hasty, offensive, inappropri de, arid personally unjust to those di,tinguished men. Why, then, did we not suppress it ? Simply tecaus_e we did not wish to garble our quotati,o, and thJug It- it well to let rlic Conservative leadere see what hitterne,s of fee ling their Whig propensities have a tendency to excite in' the minds of what we verily believe to be a large class of their most valuable supporters. The feeliog which was uppermo: t in tee mind of the respertab'e person who gave vent in such unmeasured terms to his impartial dislike of the aspirants to office, as vscll as its possessors, was evidently one of; attachment to certain principles, and disappointment at the conduct of those whom he had supposed to be their chaapione. It was a conv iction that the two parties within the walls of the House of Commons, of which Lord John Russell and Sir Robert Peel are the respec tive leaders, act as if they were separated from each . ether by a very slender partition of principle; that, in personal character, both have their strong and both their weak points ; and that the difference between them (if no greater than it seems to be) is scarcely one for the sake of which it can be worth while, to agitate the country. It was a firm persuasion, that upon certain subjects of the greatest importance to both Church" and State, the great body of Conservativesontertain views and feelings which meet with no encouragement from their leaders in the House of Commons. It was a suspicion that the triumph of Whig principles would be more effec tually promoted by a semi-Liberal Conservative Ministry, under the pressure from without of a violent Whig oppo sition, than by a measuring-cast majority of Whigs, kept in check by the party of Sir Robert Peel. We believe that nothing more than this was intended by the strong language which has given so much offence to our Con temporaries. GLOB E.—When shall we have done with Lord Car digan ? During the last twelve months the Noble Lord and his regiment have certainly-caused more trouble and annoy ance to the Commander-in-Chief, and to the other func tionaries at the Horse Guards, than the whille army list besides. Scarcely has the public mind recovered from the astonishment and disgust excited by the capricious, overbearing, and tyrannical conduct of this notorious Popinjay, than some new exhibition of his Lord ship's contempt for decency is supplied, to bring him again before the public, invested with those peculiar claims to notoriety which the Press, as the guareian of public order and the vindicator of outraged rights, is compelled to seize upon, in order to warn ethers against attempting to raise themselves to the same " bad emi nence," and thus subject themselves to the same enduring disgrace which Lord Cardigan has succeeded in obtaining for himself, es commander of a regiment in her Majesty's service. Had the Horse Guards performed its duty on the perpetration of the former freaks of this insolent inno vator upon established rules, and subverter of discipline and • subordination by the very means he proles sedly.enseloys to maintain both, the last outrage upon public feeling would, have been avoided; those who undertake to exculpate and extenuate the former freaks of their protege would have been spared the necessity of making another experiment upon the public patience and forbear ance; and Mr. Macaulay would not, in the House' of Commons, on the first night after the recess, have had imposed on him the unthankful office of a tempting to put a construction en a primeeding of Lard Cardigan, in the performance of his military duty, which the facts and circumstances of the case would not sus' ain ; and thus become a sharer in the obloquy deservedly incurred by an act in which he bad no part, and which he is now compelled to admit, so far from being justified, merits severe condem nation. Wo - confess that When we saw in . the columns of a Contemporary, the narrative of the circumstances attendant on the infliction of a 'military' flogging on private Rogers, of the 11th Hussars, we were slow to be.' lieve that the statement was correct. We thought it im possible that so gross an outrage upon public religion and decency could have been perpetrated a even by Lord Car digan ; and abstained from copying it into our columns, under a conviction-tbat there must have been some mis take or misrepresentation, which would call for explana tion or retractation by the journals which gave it currency. STANDARD: --Lord Morpeth announced last night that it is his intention to substitute- an e i g ht p oun d rating for the five pound rating originally prop ose d i n th e Ministerial Registration Bill for Ireland. - The an nouncenaent is said by the Morning Herald to have been received by some of ,the occupants cf the Minis terial benches with derision, and by Mr. O'Connell with a sneer. Mr. O'Connell afterwards expressed his deep regret at the promised change. We have been prepared for this farce by the Romanist journals of Dublin, which have been for some time hinting that a change of the kind pro posed would be recommended—according to some of these journals, by Lord Howick ; accord i ng to ot h er: , by the Noble Secretary for Ireland ; and now that it has been presented, we think that the public will be at no loss to see through it. Lord Morpeth proposes an eight pound rating, end Lord Howick may, as surmised, propose principle that p roperty i s to h e t h e basis a 201. rating, in the hop e that the essential principle of the ; •C'Rofefrepmreßseilnit—attiohne—ehall be g ot ri d o f ; but this trick must eight noti;e• suffered to succee d. s A tenant rated at po unds, or evert at twenty pounds, may to a pauper, and will be a pauper if he is rack rented, es too many tenants in Ireland are. What is the swarth of the la. bour of a man and his family ? Is it not inure than 81. or 20/. a year? Yet a mere rating even of the higher sum named only insures that the tenant shall be in a condition to receive less than the worth of that labour. The tenant, with any beneficial interest, although h e were only the old 40s. freeholder, would be, siccordin , all cal culation, a more independept proprietor than the 201. rated _ tenant, who 9 ia.. truth nu proptietor at all. The county •-• fiartehise in this country is gibed to none, ore class excepted, who have not a beneficial interest, above all charges, of 101. a year, and if the interest be of no greater value than ten pounds, en unex pired term of a: the' least tw e nty y ears . Th e excepted class is that of tenants by thC year who are bondf/de liable to the payment of a rent of fifty pounds; and every one is awnse that a farm rented at fifty pounds must be always ra,cd igher. But this is not all ; the cultivation of a farm rented" as pith as fifig pounds presumes in England th e possession of conaiderable capital l so that, although the evi dence of the possession of property by the fifty pound trintial tenant is not so direct as that which ensures the proprietor ship of other electors, it is not less conclusive; and y we are told every day that the fifty pound y est.!). tenants nre not ineeeendent electors, and that the Chandoa clause (as it is cane l) by which this class ( f farmers are enfranchised, is " a blot upon the Reform BT." And we arc told this by the very same men who lately voted and wrote for a five pound rated franchise in Leland, which, if the tenant is to have a living out of his wee:tient, must be a nothing rented franchise, and who hope now to gull the public by raising the rating some 60a. As to the fragment of a term of 14 years, it may be a single year, or even less, by which Lord Morpeth pretends to qualify this shape of universal suffrage : it is mere delusion, and Lord Howick, if the Irish Romanist papers speak truly, has so much respect for decency as to ditiend it ; for his plan, it is said, is to dispense with any interest beyond hare possession, thus placing the Irish rated 201. tenant exactly in the position of the English be/. rented. Thus, to use the figure applied to "the Chandos clause," converting the whole Irish Rcforin 8.11 into. one great blot—deeper in intensity than the English blot—as twenty pounds rating is less than fifty pounds of rent. _ C URI E R.—We do not often notice the repeal re •rings of O'Connell and his underling agitators, but they have latterly assumed such a shape that we do not feel it right to pass them over in utter silence. The accaunt given in yesterday's Courier of the last day's sitting of the As sociation in Dublin, exhibits is a striking light the anti national and dangerous views of these lrith demagogues. Not content with advising their Irish Friends to he passiv-, in case a war should break out, end to give no assistance to repel a foreign enemy, should any dare to take up arms against this country, they now bestow their sympathy is an other quarter from whence hostile operatiens against England might by possibility be organized. To say ' the least, it does • seem somewhat strange that the Repeaters should think it right to affect sympathy pre cisely in those directions where hostility towards Eugland was at one period expected. Thus, when, the hot-headed and foolish scions Of Young France were venting all sorts of invective and injurious menace towards England, these Re peaters suddenly discovered that there was some thing in the French people which deserved sympathy and admiration. Nay, they went farther, and in no equivocal terms de clared that they would net act against them. A great deal was said about the assistance afforded by Irish soldiers during the Peninsular war, and hints were thrown out of the difficulty in which England would be placed if such powerful aid were withheld at another time. O'Connell did not scruple to avow his real motive in advising the Irish to withhold their assist ance, but plainly intimated that his object was to prove to the Government that it would be dangerous to refuse re peal. It appears from the resolutions recently voted to the " kind-hearted •and enlightened friends of • Ireland" in the United States, that these Irish Repea!ers have been seized with the same regard for the turbulent si irits of America; which they pretended to feel, when it suited their purpose, for the equally-disreputable scoUrings of the Paris faubourgs. 111-natured people might think that there was something like treason, or at all events a most dangerous disiegard of the interests of this country, in the manifestations of sympathy with nations not upon the best terms, with the Sovereign for whom they pretend to have so much loyalty and affection. France was its a state of isolation from England, but the repeaters thought proper to fraternise with some of her people at that peculiar moment ; and now that there is a misunderstanding with America, which by possibility might lead to war, although we pray Heaven to avert such a result, they think it a convenient and seasonable moment to concoct resolutions and addresses couched in terms of extravagant eulogy, and expressive of affection-and gratitude towards such choice spirits as the Lynch law gentlemen of Lockport, wlio would have done summary justice upon an Englishman even before trial. If such men as these are subjt c s for the sympathy of Irish people, we do not envy them their discretion, judgment, torgood feeling. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. POST.—The position, of the stock and money markets has changed but very slightly since yesterday. The late advance seems to have had the effect of bringing forward, as is usually the case, some amount of stock to be realised. Several par cels were sold in the course of the day, but the sums did not, in either case, prove'of any magnitude, so that no impression was made upon the quotations. In the foreign house there was a little improvement in the Spanish' funtis'.' 'this was attributed to the fact of Senhor Sanchez . Silva having, on the 13th instant, brought for turd, in the 'Cortes a proposition for placing the overdue in terest on the Active Stock 'On something like a just and proper footing, entitling this portion of the foreign debt, which is certainly the most sacred of • all, to the higher rate of fire instead of three per cent., as con templated by the plan of the ex: Minister of Finance, Senor Gamboa. ThiS act of common justice is what was called for by the m emorial of the committee of Spanish bond holders, to which, however, no answer has been received direct, or communicated by_ either the contractors or the finance commissioners, though it is much to be hoped that both 'Messrs. Zulueta and Aless)s. Ricardo and Co. have not beer so inattentive to the interests of the claimants as their silence would imply. Than the small matter of five per cent. diVi dends on what ought to have been regularly paid in cash half- 5 yearly, for the last five years,' but which'hai been totally neg lected, nothin'g more moderate could well be looked , . for or . accepted, especially when it is remembered that the honnolders, on the occasion of the'Toretio conversion,• were depriied, in one shape and another, of tull'so per cent. of their original claims. . COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH PORTUGAL. The basis of the new treaty of commerce between Por tugal and Great. Britain, a .draft of which has been pre rented to Lord Howard de Walden, is understood to be a general principle - of equality. There is to be an equality of personal privileges, an equality of duties,. and ,every other kind of equality, to be regulated according to the literal acceptation of the term in Portugal, though the effect of such an arrangement, with regard to some of the interests touched, would probably .be much the same as the creditors of Portugal have experienced in the pay ment of the . dividends, the native being paid in full, and the Englishman nothing. The principle of reciprocity, recognised by the Portuguese, would seem, at the first blush, to be unexceptionable enough, and were such principle acted upon in good ft:Hi, there would be nought to complain of. If, for instance, a duty be imposed in Portugal on British, manufactures not exceeding_ that which they will fairly bear, as is the case with the produce of Portugal imported into this country, the commerce of the two nations might be truly said to be put upon an equitable footing. But the Portuguese are, by khabit nod education, so tortuous in all theirsue slings as to he totally incapable of taking any - straightforward view of any matter of business. They, accordingly, put upon . the words equality and reciprocity con structions that are perfectly inadmissible. With them the meaning of reciprocity is; 'that Por tuguese commodities in England should pay ex actly the same rate per cent. of import : duty as is exacted on English goods in Portugal, and it is in this spirit, .it is understCod, the draft of the treaty hsnde I to her Majesty's 'Ambassidor has been framed... In order to test the advantage derivable to Great Britain from this kind of reciprocity, a case has been put, which is, in fact, one of a strictly practical nature. A tun of port wine, it is argued, is sent to England, pays 100 per cent. ad valo rem duty, and yet finds a ready sale—first, because the English have fsmiliariseOl themselves with the use of the impure and unwholesome beverage, and can afford to pay a high price for it ; secondly, became that sort of wine ~being produced by Portugal only, there can be no competition to depreciate its va lue. A balc of goods,' on the other hand, sent to Portugal, if subjected to a duty of 100 per cent., could not be sold otherwise than at a heavy loss—first, because the Portuguese could not afford to pay for them at so increased a charge; and, secondly, because the competition from France, -Switzerland, and other manu facturiug countries would prevent them from maintaining a saving price in the market. An admirable kind of re ciprocity this would be for Great Britain. The conduct of Portugal is'extraordinary, for, favoured and protected as she has been in every possible way by this country, the object of the Government is evidently • to exclude our fabrics from her ports. With the assumption of an air of the utmost disinterestedness, a treaty is offered for our acceptance which must have been • concocted for that and no other purpose. , No sooner was Dom Mignel expelled from the throne by means of Bri tish arms, British capital, and British influence, than it was discovered that the Treaty of 1810 was too favourable to oureintereits, and that it must be cancelled. A mass of bonds were sent into the London market, for which a price was obtained exceeding the average cost of our own re curities ; a bankruptcy was the next step taken; then im pudent advertisements, announcing the buying up and cancelment of bonds at a fourth of the coat, not even in cluding the interest, were put into the papers; and finally a . rnost iniquitous compromise of the remainder was or is attempted by there sticklers for reciprocity and equality, the home creditor being all the while duly taken care of. The equality and reciprocity principle, and the conditions of treaties with respect to the slave-trade, have been ob served by Portugal with about the same fidelity as her financial engagements. In the hands of the Por tuguese the inhuman traffic appears to be more flourish ing than ever. Their ships laden with wretetked negrocs are to be met with at every point of the Western World, and in the event o f c h ase b e i ng g i ven to them by her''Ma jeity's cruiacra, there' is no hesitation on the part of the piratical commanders, to 'throw a few hundreds of them overboard into the sea as a means of lightening the ves sel, and escaping with the remainder. The treatment by Portugal of the poor English soldiers who fought her battles, and secured the Object fur which those bat les were waged, has been more ungrateful, but scarcely less cruel ; and the only conclusion to which we can come concerning her is, that the respect paid her by the English Government has been such as to give her a notion of her own importance out of which springs a degree of insolence and injustice that are per fectly insufferable. The remedies for all this are, how ever, so many and so easy of application that it is surpris- PRICE 51. ing the effect of none of them has been tried. It is not netPssary that we should close our ports against the only stip!e cf Portugal ; the wine so studiously avoided by every other people, and of which we consume 27,000 piles annually out of 32,000; or that we should withdraw from our engrgen ent to protect her from foreign invasion, and but fJr which:she would at the present time be an inferior province of Spain; Lord Palmerston has been told before now that he has only to " hold up his finger" to put all right, and we be lieve it.-11forning Post. 111,Neetfflf W ARKIN GTON. . - PRESENTATION OF TWO MASSIVE CUPS TO MESSRS.

Agreeably to the object of that meeting, a subscription was accordingly set on foot, two massive silver gilt cups were purchcscd, and Saturday week was appointed for the pre:enlation c f the same. At. five o'clock on that dry', upwards of two hundred of Messrs. Scuba's workmen celebrated the event by a dinner in the town-hall. Mr. James Mason, the manager of the works, occupied the cha'r, Mr. Win. Stubs siturg on the right, and Mr. Joseph Stubs on the left of the chairman. Mr. Wm.

He was happy to say that there was net a man is their employ who had net contributed towards the purchase of them—erch man had apparently sought to outdo his fellow-workmen, and although they could not all win the race, yet, certain it tsar; (as the cups testifies) they had all reached the distance-pose —( Cheers%) JOHN RIDGWAY, the secretary to the Committee formed fur raising the funds to purchase ti.e cups, then read the minutes o the different nreetiega held on the subject. The cups were then presented by William Bound and Wil liam Howard, two of the oldest workmen. They were precisely alike, except in the inscription, one bearing the name of " William Stubs, • Esq.," and the other " Jo seph Stubs, Esq."—silver cups richly gilt inside and out, covered by glass shades, and resting on rich crier son velvet cushions. , In. form they arc antique, with han dles and covers; they contain about three quarts each. They are cost rad with a profusion of resells, scrolls, end flowers, the family arms, an arm and battle axe, embossed in high relief, stud presenting a very rich and massive appearance, ieflecling great ci edit upon the taste and skill of the manufacturers, Messrs. Henry Wilkinson and Co., of Sheffield. The weight of each cup is between 80 and 90 ounces. The shields bore the following inscriptions Presented to William Stubs, Esq. ton tire other cup, Joseph Stubs, Esq.), by Iris woreteers at Warrington and Roaerliam, as a testimony of their esteem for his honour able conduct towards them as their employer, 1541." The value of each cup is about sixty guineas. Mr. J. RIDGWAY read tire fullov,ing address:— " Gentlemen,—ln the presentation of thew our humble memorials of gratitude and esteem, we have deviated , from the course usually adopted on such occasion's, by taking into our own hands what generally belongs to the province of the chair.. By so doing we do not, however, wish it to he supposed that we are unnecessarily infring ing its prerogati% es, neither do we presume tss cherish the idea of being, able to acquit ourselves in a more satisf,,e- • tory manner than our respected chairman would, were he placed in our situation. The object we have endea voured to attain has been to delegate this high honour to workmen who have been the longest under your employ, and ,who have consequently had more opportunitiei cf marking the profound judgment displayed by you towards the aggrandisement of this concern, and the welfare of those employed therein, and we are happy to congratulate you on the success which 'has attended your effarts. We also have chosen as our deputies on this occasion men who have been in this 'establishment when it did not give employment to a sixth part of the number of hands who now earn their daily bread within its work shops; who were servants of your much•respeeted father, and whose steps in the determoratioa to manufecture su perior articles of workmanship they are pseud to bear testimony you have strictly followed, and to which we think may be ascribed, in a great measure, the respect which is every where entertained for your honourable firm. With regard to the question of your meriting such a token of our esteem, there can be but one opinion. 'No masters give more liberal wages to those they employ , no masters strive to make their servants mere comfort able and happy ; and no masters are better deserving of their workmen's esteem than you Need there, then, be any surprise that we should thus seize an opportunity of evincing our attachment to such liberal-minde I employers? Certainly not. Ye e rather should we net conduct our selves in such a manner as to merit, in some degree, such unusual advantages? Should we net, by following your example, strive to make our fasnilles as comfortable 'am! happy as you des:re to make us? Should we not endea vour to raise eurselves in society, by embracing those op portunities afforded by our good old town, for tee improve • anent of ourselves and the education of our children? Arid among those who are foremost in strenuously promoting the means for attaining such desirable objects, we ever find the Messrs. •WilliaM Mid Joseph Stubs. We also think it . not inappropriate to remark, that upwards of twenty I years have elapsed since the management of this este ' blishment came into your hands. During that period there have.been rnsny fluctuations in trade ; but in no one instance, not even in the heaviest depression, have we had cause to compb.in of your conduct towards us- You have not, as would have been the else with many manufacturers, discharged your servants, to gO and seek for work which they have been unaccustomed to, and not being successful in obtaining other employment, to become chargeable to their parish. No ! these alternatives you have never made use of, but have left them to be ens , ployed by those narrow-minded manufacturers who wit' employ all they can meet with when trade is flourishing, and even take on numbers of apprentices to be discharged on the least appearance of gloom, with the unwelcome fare well of a chance of employment at the return of trade 1 who use their men as mere machines, to he taken on or turned away as suits their own caprice or interest in short, who do not consider the labourer worthy of his hire. Would - that these unjust practices %tete discos ' tinued amonst manu'acturers, a n d t h at there were more following your. laudable exampl e; t h at we could finmdae ' better understanding exist between masters and men; and that they were not looked upon with such an air of inferiority as they are by some ! If these things were im partially weighed by those who hold such opinions they would be compelled to admit that great merit is due to the working classes of Great Britain, in perforMing their share towards placing her in that position of superiority she now holds over all other countries, and also that tacir co-operation will be required in maintaining the same. To you then, Mr. William Stubs, and to you, Mr. Joseph Stubs, we beg to present these cups as an humble yet earnest acknowledgment of • those favours which have been so unsparingly bestoeed upon us at your hands, and we know that although , their value is trifling, yet we trust that they will be received with those feelings which have prompted their bestowment. We are proud to be foremost in such an undertaking, and hope that our ex ample will be followed by. other workmen, and that it sill stimulate other masters to use that conduct towards them which has always been displayed by you, and which they will find to their mutual interest:' May you, Sir, (addressing Mr. William) long live to fulfil those duties which have been imposed upon you in . your • magisterial capacity since your retirement front the active duties of this establishment, and which you have hitherto per formed with so much credit. May you, Sir (addressing Mr. Joseph), long continue to have the management which has necessarily devolved wholly upon you from you r brother's retirement. May those who have the good for tune to succeed you in the same follow the steps which have been so. successfully marked out by you; in t h e doing of which we trust they, will find in u s an d our children men who writ further their interests, and main tain that superiority -which we have attuned in point of workmanship. May the Almighty disposer cf events pour down his blessing on you,- your. families, and ourselves„' and may he grant to us all that which is most acceptable to the generality of mankind—wgood lo ng lif e. And may he grant thet•when we ale gathered to the dust him whence we came, this day's proce e di ngs may be ' h an ded down to posterity , as aim incentiv e to their industry,an in ducement forlheir good behaviour, and an example w orthy their imitation." well -The CHAIRMAN proposed the health of .111 r. -William • - Stubs, which was drunk with musical honours aed th 3 most enthusiastic applause. . Mr. WILLIAM STUBS, in returning thatiki, said he fserre'd that on the present occasion his feelings were too retch' excited to permit of acknowledging, in adequate terns bow highly he felt the compliment they had paid him by, the manner in which they had drank his health; still less - , for the testimonial of respect they had presented to him,, and, less than that, for those marks of respect and admira tion of his conduct which they had been pleased to express. towards him in the address just read. 13e could only assure them that the thirty-five veers he had been a fel low-labourer with them, it had ever been his :Mehl , to pre mote and extend the comforts of eveey one connected in any way with the . works. position at the head. 'of the establishment bad not been without its me milts of care and anxiety. It was necessary that dtriet discipline should be at all times observed ; and connection was not like one casually formed a short time only—it was one that had been cou , tinued for a series of years : they had to meet each other almost daily, and though he and brother (Mr. Joseph Stubs) might have succeeded in cateblish iug the observance of strict discipline, and in their wisdom and discretion conveyed many comforts to their homes, yet their vigilance must have rendered their conduct open to the charge of c: price. It was therefore a compliment highly to be aoprcciated to find them now corning forward and sayieg that their conduct had merited their approbation. The cues which had that day been presented, to them would bre handed down to posterity, and he should take care,' by a testamentary disposition, that they should hereafter be con sidered as objects which he most prized. Nothing coal be a greater honour than such a compliment bestowed by workmen upon any master. He could assure them that, ha reality, this was one of the proudest moments of his life. Time, during their connection together, had fled rapidly, and this day was not without its reflections. He could not pass over the events of the last twenty years without ask ing himself whether he had deserved this testimonial of respect which he had that day received at their hands ? To them he left the verdict ; fie' would not trust to his own sense of justice in the matter. - One: thing, howevem• the events of the dery had brought: to his mind. In his travels on the Continent, when at Naples, he had seen a representaion of tire twenty-six virtues ascribed to some celebrated in. dividudo He believed the address just presented to him and hie trether did not go quite to the length of giving them credit for such a number' of virtues,. but they had drawn such a beautiful picture that it would : be hard ~passible to reeognise the patty who sat. for h the likenaa. ilatii;ei, There was en odd virtue which the ad dress did not give them credit fen It was this, they had been the first men in their branch of manufacture who had had the sagacity to discover that in exact propertiou to the intelli,genee of the people they employed, so was their suc cess. He was proud to say that no body of workmen were to he found possessing or displaying a greater degree of in telligence than these he was addressing. There was no flattery there. Tire address itself, and the resolutions ac companying it, proved the truth of the assertion. It heat always been his study to increase, by every means in his , power, the intellectual stores of their worhpeople. In taking' apprentices they all knew that the preference was given to more who bed the advantage of a good education. Odium was cast upon him for so doing. It had been said that edu cation was the means of making workmen socially and politicolly discontented with their state; that it was the' cause of differsnm strikes, formed by workmen against their employers; but after a trial of more than twenty yea s, the reverse had proved the case. There was not a single instance of a strike, or the display of a feeling of discontent, is the whole of their establish ment. His fleet public efforts had Leon directed to the extension of the • Warrington grammar school, so as to make it available to the public at large. Find ing that impossible, he next tried what could be done whit a mechanics' institution, and that had succeeded beyond their most sanguine expectations. What had been the result? Were they discontented with their condition ?—(Cries of " No, nee") Were they die ' posed to did fault with those placed over them in a political point of view ? No, they were not. In con clusion, he (Mr. Stubs) said he perfectly agreed v.ith them in the sentiment expressed in their resolution, viz , " that one principal means of this country maintaining the superiority she had acquired over all other netious was found to exist in a good underst inding between the em ployer and the employed." The cup presented to him was a mere matter cf gold ; but that sentiment was one worthy to be inscribed in letters of gold. God heel prospered his efforts, and it was slow no longer necessary for him to coefiee himself to the seine!' empropeent of personal ag grandirement. Ile had higherand more imporiaut duties to perform. As a ;Magistrate, he had to look to the wel fare of the community by whom he was surrounded. He .had now only one word to add, that was—he heartily thanked then.—(Great applause.) • Ile CHAIRMAN afterwards proposed the health of Mr. Joseph Stubs, which was drank with that same display of enthusiasm ea was evinced on the announcement o: The preceding toast. Mr. JOSEPH STUBS said, there was gloat truth ire the old proverb, that it was a happy thing for a man to have father born before hint. When he cameo into the concern he felt the importance of it. He found 'that - hishldher's mcdc of conducting the business had got a "good name , ' " to that his brother bad added,. and there remained but little for hint to do further then to maintain that good name they had so justly acquired. He had atways studied to make himself tailed to the establishment, and hoped he could with out vanity arid with truth say, he loud on all occasions dorm his, beet to promote , the interests of every man in their-employe- He perfectly--agreed with every eenti tdent uttered by his brother (Mr. William Stubs), and, heartily thanked them for the kind testirnoatal uf sip probation presented to him that day. fro 'return, he Iha i only to drink to all their good he tithe, acid to assure them the, so lorg as he lived, lie should strive to promote their interests, their comfort, and their wishes to the best of his ability.—(Cheers.)

STATE OF TRADE. We tegret to state that after a year's prosperity the drawer and pantaloon trade has met a sudden d, , pression. This is principally attributed to our unsettled .relations with the United States; should it unhappily continue, it will be much felt in this district. The plain silk hose branch, once the main support of Nottingham, keeps constantly dwindling, and has sunk into a &rte. of insignificance. In London it has wholly disappeared ; the same may be said of Godalming, Dub lin, and Northamptonshite, and even in Derbyshire the frames arc principally employed in making gloves. It has been remarked that this breach of manufacture has rapidly declined since the repeal of the sth Geo. 111., in 1826. as by that law silk hosiery was prohibited ender the penalty of forfeiture of goods, and a fine of 100/. France at that period, 1765, on account of the cheapness of la bour, arising from low living, having obtained a great pre ponderance of silks in the English market. Moat of the English gentry now provide themselves with silk hosiery from France arid Italy, in their continental excursions; the greater part of the silk hose made in England being slop goods. The warp Berlin glove trade its Leicester has become depressed ; these looms, as they ate termed, are 'priu httcoriaapviat ehe l 1 se b y we o e ; n psw e u d hdmod b aes y irt: eal yrrbstu.i stopped t e o h wp e oAp r re s k , dg r b aien a na k dt e r p s na , ur t ri nii) u b b e l lr i e c t a o n tfi l, etrnh a e n t d olea t hu h id e res r the warp purse and brace trade. Owing to the great skill of the Nottingham dyers in cotton, many of these purses are now made of that material ; the brilliancy of the colour nearly ap proaches to stlie. Most of the Leicester hosiers have their cotton yarn and webs dyed at Nottingham. On the contrary, most of the black silk hosiery ate dyed in Lon don, though the Nottingham dyers have of late years so far improved, as in many fancy colours to be nearly equal to London and Coventry. Ilae warp blond hands arc to lerably well employed, but the low wages damp all energy.

We lament to state that there is no improvement in the warp tatting trade; still there is hope, from the Jacquard, the draw-boy, the chain wheel, and Crofts' patent pin machine, by which a workman may change his pattern without any expense, say btnro• time. b t u h u) t 2 ne 4 nlcs a b . tin a , r dins s i , alsrce w ii vs i e h h e i sit sQ s i et a s nymepeagetu,f, work alcul equally kt a y nd linpnp r ialsfsi tic applicable bi nl oel epao eimitropasto compositor' ao or newo d ath i ro s pei 'frame.—Nottinghani Review, Too GREEDY.— O -- readers m ust love seen, for some da) s t, in th e news p a pers, and plentifully ur posted on the walls cf the city, an smvertisement an nouncing a reward of 501. for the recovery of 1,000/. in bank notes " l ost i n Miller-street.

After the appearance of the advertisement, it is said that an anonymous letter was received, inquiring if the reward would be ineressed, o n the delivery of the money; and to this au ansiscr, couched in the negative, was given through oneof the newspapers. The handwriting of this epistle is, h ow ever, alleged to have excited, or rather to have strength ened,susp'cion against a young man employed by a re spectable Arm in town, and measures were instantly taken to getit the truth. These, r9mgur says, have been so successful, that the whole of the money has been recovered by the Bank, much to the relief of the individual by whom the mistake was committed, and to whom the circumstance has, ,no doubt, caused much disquietude. There are va rious conflicting versions of this story in circulation, but the above, we believe, contains the main facts of the case. ...Glasgow Argus. sar allt
