The M ori • ------"."------ 1141 / Heral d yesterd gave the fol lowing brief history o f the viciss ay itudes of agri culture under th e modern Corn-l aws : The present hi g h pr i ces of IdBom.estie grain are th e re sult of the very l ow pr i ces of 3), which produced such extensive ruin among th cultivator s , and a rapid de clension in the amount oef cultivation i n t h e British islands. Thence foll owe d the deficient supplies of 1837 and 1838, year when in the formerthe import o f f ore i gn wheat sprung from two hundredand sixty-three thou sandfive hundred and se and seventy-four quarters to quarters, venty-eight thousand three hundred . and ut sixty-one _ ti ers in and to one million three hundred and fifteen sand fire hundred and eighty-fuur thou sand have es of 1838, and prodt b iced, in 1838; this deficiency naturally begot the hi 1839, and 1840 ; and these, a ga i n P extensive cultivation and more 1341, more produce, which have, however, been neutralisedwubenydfeatahnret wet and inclement harvest weather which has, greatly injured what at one time promised to be a good 1 and ample supply. The effects produced on the internal cultivation by the alteration of prices seems to be invariable. The high prices of 1816, 1817, and 1818, ranging from 945. to 845., with an average yearly import of one million three hundred thousand quarters, were succeeded by ex tended cultivation of wheat and improved husbandry, which produced low prices, abundant home supplies, and greatly diminished imports for the next three years. The very low prices of 1822 and 1823 again threw land out of cultivation, prices sprung up 20s. a quarter in 1824 and 1825, and were only kept down, in 1826 and 1827, by augmented importa tions. In 1828 and 1829 the effect of the withdrawal of the one-pound notes became apparent ; prices ros e from 1828 tn 1831, and the average importation of foreign corn for those four years was upwards of one million six hundred thousand quarters per annum. Then came six y ears o f l ow pr i ces, great aqricultural distress, and diminished imports—the latter averaging . only three hbu,n_d_redavnd _twenty thousand quarters per annum ; and an inevitable u it a abl t e sequence the diminished production of • with the augmented imports we have, befor e po T inte1(81), 1 4 From this it is oli g t uite clear that the stimulus given t o price, leadsti production by artificially raising ate tile years tiv:tel fairmers to Produce more in fer t the community can purchase, when, in consequence tion, Prices fallv of their excessive produc low, and the farmers are extensively ruined ' ry as in 1834 and 1835. This is not the interested statement of an Anti-Corn -I.aw, but w o h fiacht elain Pr, -law advocate, and of a journal friend. It ls the title of being the far mer'simpress:on on them should make a corresponding and we shall be happy if we can enforce it vbriyeteheof following considerations. When the ' food rises the cons um pti on diminishes, and as ther e is always in society a • ' M UN ' Ott ',51,111(4 considerable number of persons who can barely subsist, every such rise in prices either di- I minishes the increase of population, or actually extinguishes a portion of that which is in exist ence. In very high-priced years a complete check is given to the progress of population, and it is even starved below the level of the preceding years. In such years, too, all kinds of substi tutes are had recourse to for the high-priced ag ricultural produce, so that the grower never gets ' a complete remuneration or an additional price for the shortness of his crops. Dear years, from deficient harvests, are notoriously not advanta geous to the farmer. But after a short supply, continued during two or three years, has stinted or starved down the population to its own level, and after the high prices of such years had led to extended cultivation, there come two or three favourable years. Although the existing population will extend its consumption to the extent of its means of purchase, neither those means nor the amount of population can be raised at once to the level of the increased and bounteous supply. The far mers cannot hold their produce in their own hands ; they must sell it to continue their cultivation and pay the demands on them. Neither can their produce be preserved for any length of time without waste and expense. In fertile years, therefore, prices fall in proportion below the increased supply, and below the proper price which the farmer should obtain for his in creased crop, and he is ruined, as in 1834 and 1835. There are natural effects; how does the Corn law interfere with them? The object and effect of that law is to raise prices above the level of all other countries; the consequence is, that in scarce years a greater importation, above the average, takes place than would otherwise be obtained, and in plentiful years, no exportation can take place to clear the glutted markets. From both the farmers suffer; they do not get as high a price as they ought to get in dear years, and they get a much lower price than they ought to get in plentiful years. Those laws aggravate to the farmers all the evils which arise from the variations of the seasons. But for the Corn laws, the consumption of our own popu lation would probably exceed the home sup ply, and then the only consequence of plen tiful years to the home-growers would be that their increased produce would displace foreign produce ; while in barren years there would be no sudden increase in the supply from abroad to deprive them of a fair remuneration. With a free trade in corn, prices here would ba nearly on a level with the average prices of all the countries from which we should draw our supplies; consequently, in scarce years, the in creased quantity above the usual supplies we could command would not be so much as now flows in, and in plentiful years far less would come, or our own corn might even go abroad. A comparative steadiness of price would be the result ; the farmers would have a sure and cer tain rule to guide their operations by, farming would no longer be a gambling speculation, and if a few persons did not make great fortunes the bulk of them would be comfortable, happy, and opulent. We agree with the Herald— Steadiness in the price of food is as desirable for the agriculturists as it is for the consumers, manufacturers, and the traders ; but it must be a steadiness of moderate and not of high prices. We believe ourselves to be the best friends of the landed interest, in at once and boldly stating that prices cannot be maintained, that rents ought not to be regulated by them, and that when they do fall, if landlords do not so reduce rents as to prevent land being thrown out of cultivation, as we have shown has hitherto been the effect of low prices, no Corn-law can be long maintained. But steadiness of price, and moderate price, can only result from a perfectly free trade in food, and, therefore, we regard ourselves as the best friends of the farmers when we advocate the total abolition of the Corn and Provision-laws. We should not have thought it necessary to advert to Sir R. PEEL'S and Sir J. GRAHAM'S subscriptions to the funds for relieving the dis tressed people of Paisley, had the Tory morning journals not puffed off their contributions as Con servative merit, and drawn in v idi ous compar i sons I reflecting on the Liberals. We pay no homage to that charity which " which marks the marble with its name ;" but, in the case of these states men, there is something more reprehensible than building a church to Fame instead of GOD. They are less inspired by a generous love of their kind, or a desire to deserve and possess the heartfelt approbation of their fellow-creatures, which is the best sort of fame, than by a fear of punishment. Like Sir BALA AM, they know they have done, and are doing, wrong; and they give a few pounds, as he went twice to church, to atone for their criminality towards the people. Both are great landowners, and both support a law which swells their own rent-roll by taking away the bread of the poor Paisley weavers, amongst others, to the extent of one or two thou sand pounds per annum. To appease their own conscience they give back to those weavers the miserable pittance, being some hundredth part of their extortions by law, of 50/. or 25/. They filch a diamond from the people, and fancy they can reconcile themselves to GOD by going twice to church. Poor and wretched superstition, which the DEITY cannot see with approbation, nor the people respect. They are no longer to be bribed by returning them a small portion of their own, and calling it charity. They demand justice, and it would be more be coming in these statesmen had they issued an Order of Council to admit corn, flour, and bread, duty free--that is, without paying a tax to them—by which the Paisley men would have been instantly both employed and fed, than by sending their paltry mite to a public subscrip tion to make a crack paragraph for their party journals. Some of the Anti-Free-trade Journals wish to generate an alarm for our maritime superiority, should we abolish our restrictive laws on trade. Foreign vessels, they say, would then carry on our trade, our seamen and ships would perish, and the security of Britain and her maritime superiority would come to an end together. If we could be amused by a glaring inconsistency concerning a policy which affects the happiness of millions, we should laugh at the Tories—whose perseverance in maintaining in theory the scan dalous system of impressment, after peace has for many years practically extinguished it, never to be revived, has banished our seamen by thousands from the service of their country--now pretending to be alarmed for our maritime superiority by the abolition of a kindred injustice to that !of im pressment. The Tories, however, must be ig norant of the sources of our maritime supe riority—which, fortunately for the nation, does not depend on their wisdom—or they would never dream o f attempting to maintain restrictions on trade under weaken or de t s he troypr o e u te r x n t av t a h l a g t r f e r a e t e n e t s r s a . d e would A map of t h eempire worldhas a tells us at a glance that no great the islands of G reat Britainseaandbolarredlanedqualouto Our po pulation is comparative) more y m ar iti me t h an any other people, b the y fact of their living on the borders of the sea. Our colonial pos -1 sessions, our vast foreign and coasting trade, the nurseries of our seamen, are the growth and consequences of our empire being surrounded by th e sea, a source of mari time superiority to which all the other contri buting sources are as our driblets of • rivers to the mighty ocean. A cruel Policy, making sea going, which is naturally a gl a d and cheerful occupation, more hated or dreaded than trans portation, or a suicidal and wilful extinction of trade between this country and other countries, may endanger • that superiority, but nothing else, we believe, can ; and if the land lords will only allow the population to' extend our trade, and increase the num ber of seamen as much as possible, they may be sure that Great Britain will retain her pre eminence at sea as long as her configuration re mains unaltered. _ _ Some countenance is given to the supposition of the Tories, by a recent increase in foreign shipping ; but what does that arise from ? It was given in evidence before the Import Duties 9 0 THE SUN, LON Committee, that English shipowners are vesting their capital in foreign ships, because they can be built cheaper, and navigated cheaper than English ships. But why is this? Our shipwrights are as skilful as those of any country in the world, and our ships are navigated by fewer seamen in proportion to their tonnage than those of other nations. It is because our exorbitant discriminating duties on timber nearly double the price of that commo dity, and our Corn and Provision-laws increase the expense of victualling our ships 9.0 or 30 per cent. Our Timber-duties and Corn-laws, and our Cocxßuns-cherished claim to steal the sea men, when he and his colleagues choose to make war, with various other devices which our law makers have fallen on to make sea-going hate ful, and building and navigating ships very costly, are the true causes of the comparative increase of foreign shipping, the true sources of our maritime weakness, and will be, if they are suffered to continue, the effective causes of our national decay. _ _ The encouragement of our seamen, a subject which is taken up by the Shipping Gazette, is just now a proper object of national solicitude. It will be best accomplished by setting our trade free, and abolishing the hard usages to which semen are exposed. An increasing demand for their services, and the increased respect shown them by the Legislature, would elevate them in their own opinion, and make them better and wiser. We do not agree with our Contemporary, whose reasons will be found in another part of The Sun, in desiring for our mercantile marine any recognised standing. Our merchants, bank ers, and manufacturers need no recognition by the Legislature to add to their respectability or their usefulness; neither do our merchant sea men. Let them find protection, not grievous oppression, from the laws of their country, and they will take a dignified station in society cor responding to their usefulness. From the list of subscriptions for the suffericg work-people of Paisley, inserted in our adver tising columns, we are gratified to observe that her Majesty the QUEEN has most generously availed herself of the very earliest opportunity for recording her name as a subscriber to the fund. We believe this subscription has been given spontaneously and unsolicited, and from such an act her MAJESTY'S subjects have another proof of the deep interest she feels in their wel fare, and of how very far it is from her wish that any of them should either be suffering or in want who are able and willing to provide for themselves. We most sincerely hope that this spirited and liberal example set by the QUEEN will not be lost sight of by the Nobility, but that the great majority of them will be ready to fol low the example of their SOVEREIGN in showing their readiness to mitigate the sufferings of the manufacturing classes, by devoting to that pur pose a small portion of the immense wealth at their disposal. ESPARTERO'S proclamation to the people of Spain, announcing his determination to proceed in person against the Christino insurgents in the Northern Provinces, will be found in another part of The Sun. We rejoice to find that the REGENT is resolved to make Europe acquainted with the names of the real instigators of the mur derous attack on the Royal palace. Not that we are ignorant who they are, or have allowed our readers to remain so; but an official announcement made by the Spa nish Government would overwhelm them with the obloquy of every established Govern ment in the world. The names of Louis PHI LIPPE and CHRISTINA MUNOZ will figure very dis creditably at the head of a list of the instigators of rebellion and murder in Spain. " The gene rous men of all nations," says the REGENT, " who are interested in the cause of liberty, which we defend, will demand a strict account of the instigators and perpetrators of an attack in which the descendants of an hundred Kings might have perished. The world shall be made acquainted with the names of the traitors, no matter what cloak may cover them. The time for respect, which has been requited with the blackest ingratitude, shall cease. The salva tion of Spain requires that the veil be withdrawn, and the whole truth appear, however terrible it I be." We shall await with impatience the fulfilment of this pledge. The time has, indeed, come for unmasking the treasons of the ex-Regent and her accomplices. Never did a generous people suffer more from the ingratitude and perfidy of a worthless woman than have the people of Spain from the infamous conduct of CHRISTINA MUNOZ. The Espectador, a Madrid Paper, states, truly, that as Regent of the Kingdom and guardian of her daughter, she saved, inde pendently of large bribes, during the seven years of her administration, a sum equal to four millions and a half sterling. After her departure from the Palace a number of the crown jewels were found missing, as well as large quantities of gold plate, which it is needless to observe, have not been recovered. "If these treasures," says the Espectador, 66 were re tained by CHRISTINA and expended in quiet life, and she left in repose, the Spaniards, who have sacrificed themselves to enrich her, we, and all our countrymen, would consider them well employed. But when they they are used for the purpose of kindling discord and civil war, which will occasion the shedding of torrents of Spanish blood, and consummate the ruin of the country, we cannot help feeling and denouncing such conduct as cruel in the extreme." We trust the day of reckoning is at hand, which shall consign CHRISTINA MUNOZ and her partizans, to the contempt and scorn of Europe. Loaded with the hatred of a gallant nation, whose generosity she so shamefully abused,CHuisTlNA MUNOZ will pass the remainder of a disgraceful life exiled from the society, and cut off from the sympathy, of all great and good men. Her solitude will be haunted with visions of the gallant but misguided victims of her ambition and avarice. The bloody shroud of the chivalrous DIEGO LEON will some times disturb her slumbers; for though she can bid defiance to the power of men, neither wealth, security, nor the absolution of a ghostly con fessor can stifle the voice of conscience. The Paris Journals of Sunday have all been received. Notwithstanding the disgrace ful part taken by France in the insurrec tion in Spain, the last courier from Madrid brought from the REGENT large remittances for the payment of the arrears due to the French Auxiliary Legion. This was judicious on the part of ESPARTERO, who by this act has enlisted the sympathies of all honest men in France in his favour. A telegraphic despatch from Bayonne, dated the 9, -2 d instant, states that General O'DONNELL was then on the French frontier, demanding permission to cross it, at the head of 2,000 rebels. On the following day, the subjoined despatch was forwarded to the French Government : Bayonne, Oct. 23. " THE SUE-?REJECT TO THE MINISTER Of THE INTERIOR. _ " O'Donnell arrived yesterday at two o'clock, at Uriax, with about 2,500 men. Generals Ortigosa and Jauregny (El Pastor) are with him. Count Monterron, and a few Members of the Provincial Deputation, also entered France yesterday." M. Merentier, principal of the mercantile firm of Me rentier and Co., of Marseilles, Paris, and London, who, after the recent failure of their house, absconded, was arrested in Paris on Friday last in an obscure lodging, which he had taken in a false name. In endeavouring to escape by the window, the wretched man fell and broke his thigh. The Ministry continues to dream about iron railways. It appears that it seriously intends to cover France with them ; this proves that people may seriously intend the greatest follies. To undertake at once 3,000 or 4,000 leagues of iron railway at fifteen hundred thousand francs per league, without delaying the fortifications of Paris, and without reducing the standing army, while there is from possibility and reality, that a Government which in a supplemen t entertains such projects is quite out of the region of real " We received The Phare des P y r e nees yesterday th e fo ( l B yl oe a wr y yi o n n g n n c )ovosf importanttli n 2 e 0 1 :1: pub lishesfrom m the Biscayan pronnces.

The approaching arrival of General Itodil, the presence of Zurbano almost at the gates of Vittoria, had thrown the inha bitants of the city into consternation. The Ayunta miento met, in which the Marquis IYAlameda, Deputy- General of the Province, presided ; it was decided that Vittoria should not make any defence. " The Militia and the troops at the garrison pro claimed the counter revolution. " Montes D'Oca, the Marquis D'Alameda, Brigadier- General Echaline, Colonel Leiba, and some other leading persons, immediately left the city and proceeded to Ber gona, where Montes D'Oca was arrested. The others reached Metrico, where they embarked for France and arrived at Bayonne this morning."—Constitutiorniel. The Toulonnais, of the 24th, says, " The steamer which should bring the mail from Africa, has not yet arrived in the road. " It is supposed that this packet, being surprised at sea by the storm which prevailed last week, has been damaged, and that it was unable to continue its voyage.

CITY, TUESDAY EVENING. It is now ascertained, as we mentioned last night, that triplicate Exchequer Bills, being part of a quantity surreptitiously issued, are in the market, and we believe there is no doubt that a party in one of the Government offices has been traced out as the delinquent, so that we shall soon have something official on the subject. The Stock Market generally looks steady. Consols brought 87k to 88 and 88* for money, and 881 to 88i for account. Exchequer Bills were flat at 10s. to 12s. premium, and East India Bonds were worth par to 2s. premium. The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents., 97,1 to 98 ; and the Three per Cent. Annuities, 86 to B'4 Bank Stock was dull at 162-i-, and India Stock at 243 to 2431. In the Foreign Securities business is very flat, the public exercising therein very laudable discretion. The Active Spanish Bonds were not higher than 20* to or per cent. decline on yesterday's prices ; Portu guese New Five er Cents. were at 291 ; and the Three per Cents. at 18* ; French Five per Cent. Rentos were at 114 25 ; and Dutch Five per Cents. at 99 ; Mexican Stock realized 24, Colombian 18a, and Brazilian 54} to 551. Although but few transactions were entered into in the Share Market, prices, upon the whole, were maintained. Great Western obtained 10 to 101, the New 4i to 5, South Western 13*, and York and North Midland, 28 prem. Brighton were 12 to 12, and Blackwall 16i dis. London And Westminster Bank Shares were 1+ prem. The Foreign Exchanges were flat again this afternoon. Bills on 'Paris were taken at 25f. 70c. to 721 c., on Ham burgh at ME thic. to tic., on Amsterdam at 12f. 41c. to on Antwerp at 12f. 3ic. to4c., on Frankfort at 149 c., and on Trieste at 9f. 550. to 56c.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 25.—We have had a quiet Cotton Market to-day, the sales comprising 3,500 bales of all kinds to tlze trade. LIVERPOOL SHARE MARKET, OCT. 25.—The following are the transactions at the close of the Stock Exchange: Chester and Crewe, 461 ; Great 'Western Half Shares, 54i ; London and Birmingham Quarter Shares, 211. MANCHESTER STOCK EXCHANGE, OCT. 25.—There is no particular change to note in our Market to-day. Business has been effected in the following Stocks : Manchester and Leeds, 564 ; Ditto, Quarter Shares, ` , l. 15s. ; Alliance Bank, 16{ ; Manchester and Liver pool District Bank, 10 ; Rochdale Canal, 85 ; Manches. ter and Salford Waterworks, 54. The chief topic of conversation in the City this morn ing is the Exchequer Bill affair. It was stated yesterday afternoon that a triplicate bill of the same grant had been traced to be in circulation, which produced great sensation in the Stock Exchange, particularly amongst the dealers in those securities, and for the present there is no disposition whatever to deal in them. Consols opened at 874 88 for Money, and 881 for the Account. Exchequer Bills are quoted 10s. 125., premium. In the Foreign Market a further decline has taken place in Spanish Securities ; the Active Stock is now 204 ; Portuguese Five per Cents. are 2944 ; Ditto Threes, 174 184 ; Brazilian Bonds, 54 56.

Very little business doing. There has been but little business doing in the Share Market. Prices are higher. Consols, 881; Ditto, Account, 884 -a; Spanish, 201 I. The Exchequer Bills Market continues in a very ex cited state, and the discovery of triplicate bills of the same date has once more directed the sur ►nises of the jobbers to the probability of forgery. Whether, as is reported, there be any truth in the state ment that the suspected party is in custody, it is not in our pcwer to say, but that if forgery has been com mitted, and the delinquent is in the country, he will very soon be in the hands of justice, is consi dered, from the activity displayed in tracing out the whole circumstance, almost beyond a doubt. The public will act wisely in the meantime, to be cautious in their dealing in Exchequer Bills, for if, as some assert, the system has been going on for three or four years, no one can tell the extent to which the lengthened success of the guilty parties may hare emboldened them to operate.

The New Cabinet at - Washington has been completed. The following are the names and offices of the Members : Daniel Webster, of Mass., Secretary of State. Walter Forward, of Pa., Secretary of the Treasury. Abel P. Upshur, of Va., Secretary of the Nary. John C. Spencer, of N. Y., Secretary of War. Hugh Legere, of S. C., Attorney-General. Charles A. Wickliffe, of Ky., Postmaster-General. The Regent of Spain, Espartero, has issued a procla mation, dated the 18th inst., announcing his immediate departure from the Spanish capital, to quell in person the insurrection in the northern provinces. lie consigns the protection of the young Queen to the loyalty and valour of the Natirnal Guards of Madrid. General O'Donnell has been compelled to take refuge in France, accompanied by about 2,500 insurgents, in cluding Generals Ortigosa and Jaureguy (El Pastor.) Lord Ponsonby and Reschid Pasha, late Grand Vizier of Turkey, and now Ambassador to France, are per forming quarantine at Malta. The Toudonnais of the 21st instant announces that Admiral Casey had been ordered to hold himself in readi ness to put to sea. On the morning of the 20th the Admiral hoisted his flag on the Suffren, which ship and the Marengo, Jupiter, and Scipion, were expected to sail on the 22d. The Jena and Neptune, which formed part of the division, would follow the Admiral immediately on the return of the Neptune, which was to leave Tunis on the 13th for France. The destination of this arma ment gave rise to much conjecture. It was rumoured in Paris on Sunday that Espahero had signed the treaty of commerce with Great Britain, and that the import duties on British goods were to be reduced 20 per cent. generally; that the Spanish Ambassa dor in Paris had called for his passports, and that a French corps of army of 45,000 men was on the point of being concentrated along the Pyrenean frontier. PUBLIC OPINION. Earl de Grey's replies to the congratulatory addresses of the Dublin Corporation, and of Trinity College, fur nish the Heratl with the subject of a leading article, in the course of which it observes :—" It will be Earl De Grey's duty, as it will be his pleasure, to render Dublin attractive to the nobility and gentry of Ireland, to make the metropolia of the island again the residence, for a season of each year, of its wealth, its education, and its aristocracy, and to cor.vert his Court into a school where true patriotism may be taught, and whence a national enthusiasm for the development of the great re sources of the country may be diffused throughout the length and breadth of the land. No man can better in struct Irish landlords in the delights of a residence on their own estates, in the mental joy consequent on the appearance of well cultivated farms and a contented and prosperous tenantry, and in the satisfaction of erecting a residence on patrimonial lands occupied by grateful dependants."—There is much good sense in these re marks of the Herald. By encouraging the residence of the great Irish landlords on their estates, and dis couraging the prevalent evil of absenteeism by every means in his power, Lord De Grey will be taking the surest steps to promote the welfare, too long neglected, of the Sister Country. It is thus, too, he will best diminish the popular cry for Repeal, which will necessarily fall to the ground the instant confidence and prosperity give indications of taking up their abode in Ireland. On the important question of the present distressed state of the country, the Chronicle says:—" Appeals for public charity, bankruptcies multiplying, incendiary tires beginning,bread-corn rising, and aggravated distress rapidly extening amongst multitudes ; such are the fearful symptoms of what the condition of the country will be through the coming winter. What, then, is the first duty of every honest and good man ? Plainly, to turn his best attention to the means of averting im pending evil, and of mitigating actual distress. This is not a state of things to slumber upon. There is much in it to reach the most callous feeling. There is also something in it which might startle into thoughtfulness the most obdurate selfism, if not absolutely infa tuated. What can be done ?' That is the one great question on which every man should consult his neighbour; or, what is better, task his own mind for a reply. It is no mere mathematical problem, for the solution of which the world may wait. The question urges, from day to day. Already thousands are half-famished, and disease stalks abroad. What can be done ? The public mind demands an answer."— And the only answer that Ministers deign to give to this question of questions—the only notice they see fit to take of it is—an exhortation to the people to wait coolly and patiently, till they are at leisure to take their case into consideration ! Not a word of a present remedy— scarcely even a promise of a future one I No, they must wait till next February ; they must be content to starve on throughout the long, dreary winter months, at the end of which time those who may happen to be alive, and have not been carried out on four rough boards from the workhouse, and flung like dogs into their grave, will have their situation inquired into, with a view at some time or other to have that situation remedied. Eels, said the old fish-woman, are used to be skinned, and think nothing of it. The people, say Ministers, are used to be starved, and think nothing of it—consequently they can afford to wait our time. The Post says:—" It cannot be supposed that a Go vernment, which is no more than barely in office, should have, either by its acts or its omissions, already affected the condition of the great mass of the people. The cir cumstances in their condition which are complained of are not of the growth of yesterday. It is quite true that at any time these ten years the great mass of the fixed wealth of the country, and a large preponderance of the manual labouring power of the country, were closely con nected with the land—that they, in short, formed the land ed interest;' but it is not true that the landed interest bold the governing power in this country during the period specified, though it did hold a very important check and control over the governing power."—lt was not ex pected that the Tories, immediately on taking office, should have been able to remedy the distresses of the country; what was expected from them was, that they should have betrayed an honest disposition to investigate, with a view to remedying, those distresses. But this they have not done. On the contrary, they have dis played the most remarkable apathy, on every point, ex cept that of ventilating the House of Commons. The following is from the Times :—" So numerous are the verdicts of death from want of the common necessaries of life' returned by coroners' juries, that Mr. Assistant Poor-law Commissioner Mott, when engaged in the task of vindicating from misrepresentation the guardians of the Bolton Union, could not refrain from travelling into a long digression, in order to account for this unpleasant phenomenon. It is to be lamented,' says he in his report, that verdicts should be given implying such an awful neglect of duty as that of allow ing a fellow-creature to die of want without the most satisfactory corroborative evidence.' Far more is it to be lamented, say we, that restrictions involving such awful consequences should be imposed on the adminis tration of the English Poor-law, against the deliberate sense of the English people." In an article on American affairs, the Ipswich Express remarks as follows:—" Ministers having left our domes tic affairs to the chapter of accidents, we are for the pre sent chiefly indebted to Courts in other countries for in dications of the change which has taken place in our own. War with the United States forms the unceasing theme with the Ministerial journals, and sundry vitupe rative comments invariably accompany every statement of border excitement on the Canadian frontier. There inky or may not be in this a design to prepare the public mind of this country for an American war; but it is, at all events, too likely to pave the way for such a calamity." The following is from an article on Toryism in the Liverpool Albion :—" The people are not likely to tole rate the permanent stability of a Government whose avowed object is to restrict commerce and keep up the price of food, and who have entered upon their career by adding largely to the public debt under which the country was already bowed to the very dust." MONEY—TRADE—COMMEIJOE. In the neighbourhood of Ingatestone, Essex, upwards of 300 railway labourers, in consequence of the bad weather, have been for some time past out of work, and are in great distress. All the Jam grown on the island of Jersey is sent to England free of duty, and the Jersey people import from France and the Baltic. The high duty in Eng land has made it more profitable to cultivate corn. The orchards are fast disappearing, and the parsons are petitioning the States for a fixed salary, as the livings are so reduced in value it is hardly worth while for any man of edncation to accept them. A ship is now delivering from the Havannah, sugar which will be sold to the Jersey public at 30. per pound of two ounces more than the English. The English shilling goes for one penny more. The principle of free-trade is fully carried out there, and the Jersey people go to the cheapest market regardless of free or slave labour. Such is the stock of ore in some of the iron -works, says the Welshman, that only a certain number of trams are allowed daily to the workmen ; this, in addition to the late reductions of wages, makes the circumstances of our workmen very distressing. The line of the Manchester and Sheffield Railway ex tending from Manchester to Godley, a distance of from eight to nine miles, will be opened in the course of a few weeks. AGRICULTURAL. It is stated, on the best authority, that the Irish pea santry will this year be exposed to a great deficiency in the potato crop, and it is remarkble that the failure of the crop is greatest upon rich and heavy soils, such as the south-western parts of the county of Tipperary, while the light, sandy soils alone produce fairly. STATISTICS. The official returns of the St. Clements Danes Sav ings' Bank from November last up to the 10th of Octo ber, state the receipts of depositors to have been upwards of 40,1001., whilst the repayments being only 27,6001. have left a clear balance of 12,5001., which has been in vested in Government securities. VLECTIONEERING. The Glasgow registration presents the following re sult :—Reformers added to the roll, 1,351 ; struck off the roll, 837; increase of Refbrmers, 514 ; Tories added to the roll, 876; struck off the old roll, 788 ; increase of Tories, 88 ; majority for the cause of Reform, 426. This, coupled with the Reform majority at the last elec tion, gives a clear majority to the Reformers now upon the poll of 738. NAVAL AND MILITANT. The Precursor, a large steam-vessel, the first of a line of mail and passenger steamers, intended to ply between Calcutta s and the Red Sea, built for the Eastern Steam Navigation Company, was launched on Wednesday. Her tonnage, including engine-pits, is 1,780 tons. The expected military brevet, it is asserted, will in clude Captains of 1835, The walls of Dublin are posted with placards offering bounties, not only to able-bodied, but ordinary seamen, for her Majesty's service. LAW AND POVEC.Z. Two Frenchmen were convicted at the Surrey Ses sions of an assault on a man of the name of Maddox, on the 30th of August, in Vauxhall Gardens. One of them was fined lat. and the other 51. and held to bail to keep the peace. It appeared the assault was of a very serious description. At the Central Criminal Court on Monday William Smith Henson, an attorney, was indicted for obtaining money by false pretences. It appeared from the evi dence that a poor woman of the name of Street had paid him, at different times, 31, to defend her son, and fee Counsel, which he had failed to do. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the defendant, who had been out on bail, was sent to Newgate, to be brought up in the course of the Sessions for judgment. COITIM---FAMIXONAULE. Her Majesty has granted 1001. for the relief of the distressed Paisley weavers. It was reported last night in town that an express had arrived, stating that the Queen Dowager was indisposed at Sudbury Hall. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester left Bersted Lodge yesterday for Gloucester House. The Duke of Cleveland, who has been some time in disposed, was on Saturday last considered out of danger. On Saturday last the Duke of Wellington, accom panied by Lady Wilton and her son, left Weimer Castle on a brief visit to Dover. The only visitors at present staying at the Castle are Lord De Roos, and the Earl and Countess of Wilton. MISCELLANEOUS. EYesterday in 1764 died William Hogarth, the prince of painters. The nationality of Hogarth's prints has given them a more lasting popularity than that enjoyed by any class of engravings. From the report of the " Sanatorium," a public in stitution intended to provide medical relief to the middle classes in sickness, and a meeting of whose members met at the London Tavern yesterday, it appears that the number of subscribers was 216, whose entire subscrip tions amounted to about 1,500 L, while the persons inte rested in the institution were from 1,200 to 1,300. Brighton is remarkably full at the present time. Last week the greatest amount of letters ever delivered here took place, the number from London alone being nearly 32,000. After the performance of sacred music in the parish church of Leeds on Monday last, two old women en tered, expecting evening prayers. None, however, were read, and being overlooked, the visitors were locked up all night, and next morning were found quietly seated in the Corporation Pew.—These are not the first old women who have taken their seats in a Corporation Pew. The Western Times says—" We are informed that the Earl of Devon's harriers came across a donkey last week, and gave chace to the poor animal, whom, before they could be called off, they tore to pieces."—lt is fortunate that the Gallant and Hon. Member for—our readers will, no doubt, be able to fill up the blank—was not in the neighbourhood at the time, or he, too, might have been torn to pieces! Mr. Auldjo, in his " Journal of a Visit to Constanti• nople," speaking of Turkish boatmen, says—" At each stroke of the oar they utter a grunt, to acquire which accomplishment is considered a necessary part of a boat man's education, and his character depends much upon it."—What the grunt is to a Turkish boatman, cock crowing is to a Tory subaltern ; it is considered a neces sary part of his education, and his character, as a useful party man, depends much on it. Mr. John Wilson Croker's modesty! RUMOURS Or THE EAT. According to an Irish paper, Government are about to lay out an enormous sum in strengthening the fortifica tions of Gibraltar. We believe the account in a Scotch paper, that the Government is about to settle the Non intrusion question, is equally credible. LLOYD'S SH] PPING. LONDON, OCT. 26.—. Wind this day at noon, N., var.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge arrived in town yesterday morning, from his re sidence at Kew. His Royal Highness visited the Duchess of Gloucester at Gloucester-house. and in the evening returned to Kew, attended by Colonel Jones. Lord Stanley attended at the Colonial-office yesterday for the first time since his recent at tack of gout. The Right Hon. Sir Charles Grey bad an interview with his Lordship. The Lord Chancellor will receive the Judges, Queen's Counsel, &c., at his residence in George street, on Tuesday next, the first day of Miehael: mas Term. NEW ASSURANCE AND LOAN BANK.—In another part of the paper will be found a prospectus of a new Company, under the title of the " Achilles British and Foreign Life Assurance Association and Loan Bank." According to the plan laid down, it will differ from other insurance offices in this respect, that in addi tion to the business of life assurance, loans will be granted on the policies. A deed of settlement will forthwith be prepared for limiting the responsibility of the Shareholders and regulating the affairs of the Asso ciation until an Act of Parliament can be obtained for a charter. There is ample space for such an association. The profits of some of the existing Companies are very great, and a new association, founded on sound principles, might be beneficial, not only to the Shareholders but to the public. Much, however, will depend on the cha racter and property of the parties forming the Com pany ; and when application is made to Parliament for a Charter, we have no doubt the originators of the Achilles Assurance will be prepared with satisfactory proofs that they are entitled to confidence. Sir Robert Peel, Sir James Graham, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and some of the other Cabinet Ministers, were busily engaged at the Home office on Monday until past eight o'clock in the evening. Yesterday the same activity prevailed a t the Home -office and the Treasury. At the former, Mr. Hall, the Magis trate of Bow-street, and Mr. Burnaby, chief clerk, were in attendance a great part of the morning. It is generally stated that the inquiry going forward relates to the irregularity in issuing Exchequer Bills, but in the present stage of course nothing is allowed to transpire. A considerable number of gentlemen from the City visit ed the Treasury during yesterday morning. THE QUEEN DOWAGER.--We rejoice in being able to state, that there is no foundation whatever for the report in a Morning Paper that her Majesty the • Queen Dowager had been taken ill at Sudbury Hall. The inquiries at Marlborough House yesterday , were very numerous, and the answer given was, " The Quee n Dowager is quite well." MORNING SITN .- _.................. _ SPORTING INTE_LLIGENCE._.
