RE-ANIMATION. THE MEDICINAL EFFECTS of STEEL, as a strengthener and restorative, have been known for ages to excel those of all other articles of the Materia Medina, and in this age of luxury and dissipation, when the indiscretions of youth disappoint the expectations of maturity, it is not to be wondered that a medicine of such efficacy as SEDDON'S genuine AROMATIC LOZENGES of STEEL should have attracted the attention of the first medical men in Europe. When the most important functions of life are suspended, and those who are invalids by inheritance or imprudence are reduced to the most deplorable state of nervous debility, it is not in despair that relict is to be found. It has been ascertained, be yond a doubt that these circumstances are occasioned by a ge neral or partial relaxation or weaknesses in either sex ; and it is equally certain that SEDDON'S LOZENGES are the best, if not the only remedy ever discovered for this species of de bility. When taken into the stomach they immediately diffuse themselves like a vapour through every pore, producing effects at once delightful, salutary, and permanent. When the spark of life begins to grow dim, the cii culation, languid, and the faculties paralysed, these Lozenges are found to give tone to the nerves, exhilirate the animal spirits, invigorate the body, and re-animate the whole man. When aversion to exercise, loss or depravity of appetite, and pallid countenance, indicate approaching consumption, the delicate female will be preserved and restored to health and society by the benign influence of this medicine. _ . --- Prepared enly by the Proprietor, and sold by his Agents, Mr. Gifford, 104, Strand ; also by Messrs.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. • recall. THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. CHRONICLE.—Sir Robert Peel appears to have satisfied neither his own party nor his opponents by his speech of Tues day night. The Times, in an article of yesterday, takes him roundly to task for his indiscretion and his deficiency in the qualities which a statesman out of office ought to possess. But before proceeding further, let us hear the accusation against the Right Hon. Baronet : " There was one part of it ( Sir Robert's speech), however, says the Times, which we must acknowledge gave us considerable pain, and which must also give pain to no small number of the Right Hon. Baronet's friends, who support his general view of Con servative policy. He repelled the charge of faction absurdly brought against him by Lord John Russell, in what we cannot but think an injudicious manner, by reminding the House that he had assisted the Noble Lord and his Ministry on the pri vilege question, and on the question of the New Poor law —or, in other words, that he had identified him self with the Whig party on two very unpopular occasions. Surely this is not the time to boast of such achievements as these. If there was merit in such a coalition, we are at a loss to see what should hinder the Right Hon. Baronet from giving his general support to the Ministry which he then upheld. Both those measures were characteristic of the party from which they came ; and to say that those were good measures, seems to us much the same thing as saying that Lord Melbourne ought to continue Minister. Surely it is an erroneous system of action, in the leader of a great and influential party, to show disrespect (without any apparent motive or reason), not only for those who, agreeing to his ge neral principles, may differ from him on one or two important points, but for what above all things ought to be dear to a public man, especially when out of office—the affections of the majority of his countrymen. If it be a merit to have supported Lord John Russell in those particular measures which have tended to snake the Whigs most odious in the country, it may perhaps be a merit to have originally brought him into office, and placed him in a position to carry them, by obstinately resisting the common sense of the nation upon the subject of reform. Are we to have, in the year 1841, another exhibition of that species of political wisdom, which in 1839 re fused to enfranchise even one of the great manufactu rile towns ? If so, it cannot be long. before we have a similar result. We respectfully think that these are serious errors in the policy of the Right Honourable Baronet. They tend to throw into perplexity, not one or two only, but great many of his most zealous supporters, and the great body of the people. It seems difficult to account for them, except by supposing either that the Right Hon. Baronet is better qualified to gain a victory than to use it, or that he thinks it of little importance whether the country is governed by Lord Melbourne or by himself." There spoke the genius of the monopolists! What, above all things, ought to be dear to a public man, especially when out of office, the affections of the majority of his countrymen. Professions when out of office, to be forgotten when in. No matter what false promises are made ; no matter what delusions are encouraged when out of office. The end sanctifies the means. Could he not, like very many of his party at the last general election, affect an extraordinary hatred of measures they were at that time determined to support in their places in Parliament? All is lawful to a man out of office, to gain the affections of his countrymen. We call on the people of Eng land to note this revelation. " Out of the fulness of the heart the mouth apeaketh." The Times knows no principle, but the readiness to profess any _principle to serve a turn. It supplied to Sir Robert a chapter out of its ethical code for his edification. The Times and the party understand each other well. We have a word on our own account to say to Sir Robert before concluding. We have refrained from ex pressing any strong opinion on the subject of the want of fair ness he displayed in the treatment of the deputation from Man chester. We have done so, in the confidence that the Right Hon. Baronet would himself see that it was due to his own character as a public man to set himself right with the country with reference to what certainly has, at present, an appearance not at all favourable to him. We put it to him as a public man, whether he does not owe some explanation to the deputa tion and the House for the injustice he evidently committed towards the former. But we will not press the subject further at present, referring our readers to a letter from Mr. Ash worth, in our columns of this day. ADVERTISER.—We congratulate the country that the are moving in a right direction. The prudence and the cou rage of the Government in their difficult circumstances are beyond all praise. It now rests with the people, who have occasionally chid them for their backwardness, to show that the support which it is necessary to carry through Parliament these excellent measures is at hand. There is now an interval of ten days before the Corn-laws will be broached ; this inter val should be actively employed in preparing and forwarding petitions expressive of the national feeling on the subject. Thanks to railroads and the penny-post, there is abundant time for the purpose, and it will be treachery to the great cause to neglect it. Moreover, very direct intimations should be sent to all the Representatives of commercial places, of the desires of the constituencies with regard to this matter ; and as Sir Robert Peel expressed his disbelief in the existence of distress, at least to the extent alleged, statements of the condition of the manufacturing and labouring classes in those places should be forwarded to their Members ; and also to those Members who take a more active interest on behalf the people. Something more than a party struggle is involved in the forthcoming debate. It will be a debate on the condition of the people of England—of the numerous classes—the ar tisan and the labourer. It is not enough for Sir Ro bert Peel to allege that these things have always been— that the masses of the people have ever been distressed. We know it. It was for this reason that Reform in Parlia ment was sought ; and it is a consequence of that Reform that the prayers of the people can and will now be heard. Par liament is, in fact, on its trial. Is it so constituted as to give place to a sympathy, an active efficacious sympathy, with the wants and feelings of the people ? The supposition that it is net has given rise to Chartism. Destroy Chartism by proving the reverse.. Again, we say that it is not enough Sir Robert Peel should allege that there has ever been distress. This is true. But the question is, shall it be allowed to continue, or rather shall it be allowed to augment with the growth of the population? The Government have exerted themselves in every way to promote the welfare of the people ; by their commissions of inquiry those wounds in the state which have been created by the distressful poverty of the people have been probed. They have endeavoured in various ways to add to comforts, and ameliorate the condition of the people ; but by the necessity of their position, arising out of the state of Parliament, they were compelled to begin at the wrong end—with the Poor-laws instead of the Corn laws, the master grievance. But at last, taking advantage of exigencies which all must needs admit the force of, they have boldly seized that by the horns, and if the people are as much in earnest about the matter as the Government is, success will crown this grand effort of statesmanship. This, indeed, is the grand reform—the result which the people too san guinely hoped for, as the immediate consequence of the Re form hill. By this reform, the whole political character of the Tories will be changed. TIMES.—The announcements in the House of Commons yesterday evening leave no doubt as to the intention of Minis ters to dissolve Parliament immediately after the division which they hope to have the opportunity of taking upon the question of the Corn-laws. It is for the Conservative leaders to determine whether they shall be permitted to carry this intention into effect without impediment. And it is for the Conservative people to lose no time in girding up their loins for the approaching contest, and to take such prompt and vi gorous measures as will enable them to follow up the series of triumphs which have hitherto rewarded their efforts in and out of Parliament with a signal, decisive, and universal victory throughout the country. When the hunted wolf turns to bay, the chase is nearly at an end. To comment upon "the unparalled te nacity of office " (as it was well expressed by Lord Dar lington) which these men exhibit, has become almost as stale a thing as to illustrate the inconsistencies of Mr. Daniel O'Connell. They stand in a position in which no Govern ment of this country ever stood before. When Mr. Pitt was first intrusted with the formation of a Ministry, he had to contend with an adverse majority in a Parliament summoned by his predecessors. To have resigned without dissolving that Parliament, because he did not possess its confidence, would have been self-contradictory ; he had virtually dissolved it from the moment when he accepted office, and the event justified the course he took. Sir Robert Peel, in 1835, was placed in a position precisely similar ; and in his case also, the effect of a dissolution was to bring so decided a change in the rela tive position of parties, as sufficiently proved that a great reaction had taken place, and that the dissolved ' House of Commons had ceased to represent the opi nion of the country. Lord John Russell on Tuesday night had the temerity to represent the conduct of . Sir Robert Peel, after the meeting of Parliament in 1835, as a precedent for his own continuance in office under present circumstances. It is true that Sir Robert Peel did not relinquish office till after four adverse divisions had taken place ; but why ? Because there were facts connected with each of those divisions which justified the Right Hon. Baronet in requiring from the House of Commons a more decisive and unequivocal declaration of want of confidence in his Government. No sooner was that declaration made than he quitted the scene. He never thought of forcing upon the House motion after motion for the pur pose of seeing them rejected, or of converting Parliament into an arena for the display of a series of manceuvres intended to tell en the hustings ; he did not dream of dissolving a Parlia ment which he had himself called together, when it gave him warning that the hour for his retirement was come. HERALD.—Last night Lord John Russell, in answer to a question, preceded by a severe and just rebuke from the Earl of Darlington, stated that he would bring on the discussion of the Corn-laws on Friday, the 4th of June next. We could have been well content to have wanted this additional verifica tion of the charges we have brought against his Lordship of political duplicity. So lately as the 30th of April Lord John Russell, for the first time, announced from his place in the House of Commons, that he meant to bring forward certain resolutions, modifying (in their most essential bearings) the present Corn-laws. We remarked, in a leading - article which appeared in the Herald of the Ist instant, on the utter in compatibility of this intention—the total inconsistency of these views—with the declarations contained in his me morable letter to the electors of Stroud in 1837. And if we amused ourselves with discussing the oddity of the coincidences—to say no more of them—by which it hap- . pened that this astounding announcement was made the very day after a signal defeat sustained by Lord John's Govern ment, mainly at the hands of that interest which these changes of duty were chiefly to affect, we had ample authority for our remarks in those which were made on the same subject in the House of Commons on the following Monday evening. In the course of that monster debate of nine days, which Wed nesday morning brought to a termination, Lord John —re proached with the same " coincidences —rather angrily in sisted that the " new lights" which had dawned upon the minds of Ministers in respect of the sugar duties, the timber duties, and the corn duties, were of no recent kindling, but had absolutely illuminated the recesses of the Cabinet before even the commencement of the session. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Labouchere, and Mr. Shiel, also protested that these new-proclaimed opinions of her Majesty's advisers had long been entertained by them. And what was the general reason they gave fox their now promulgating them? Simply this, that the changes proposed could be no longer delayed ; that it was essential to the best interests of the country that they should be instantly adopted. Why, then, as it was well asked in the House of Commons, on the 30th of April, was the measure as to the Corn-laws, then announced, proposed to be delayed over till the 31st of this current month ? What else but the mischiefs of uncertainty, fluctuation, doubt, and ap prehension could pervade, in the meanwhile, the dealings of all who were connected with the production of corn, its import. ation from abroad, or its purchase and sale in the markets, here, at home ? This question was most forcibly addressed to the Noble Lord by Sir Edward Knatchbull, and it was not an swered by any intelligible reply. POST.—At the present moment there are two distinct and different matters of high importance before the public which ought by no means to be confused fogether. One of them is the natural position of the Government, and the other is the policy which the Government has announced . in its financial budget. PRICE sd. The Government may attempt to act unconstitutionally, and in a way dangerous to the liberties of the nation, and to the sta bility of the Monarchy, even though its policy be right. This is the first thing to be considered. Ought a Alinistry, beaten as that of the Whigs has been in both Houses of Parliament, to retain office? We say it ought not, and that even they who most approve of its policy ought to join in protesting against its retention of office under such circumstances. For, if it be allowed, where is the Parliamentary control over the Ministry ? Must we at all times scait for the desperate expedient of stopping the supplies ? Is there to be no constitutional means of power of getting rid of a Ministry save by a convulsive contest with the Executive and with the Crown ? Why, if that were the case, how often might weak and worthless Administrations retain office through the natural reluctance of Members of Parliament to proceed to such extremes ? We believe the policy of the Government, and the attempt of Ministers to hold office under existing cir cumstances, to be both exceedingly dangerous, but the more immediate danger is that of the sordid and base design to hold the Government in despite of the adverse judgment of Par liament. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. `FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. CHRONICLE.—A change from monopoly to free trade is essential to the safety of the Bank of England. Mr. Horsley Palmer knew this well when he signed the petition to the House of Commons, praying for a modification of the tariff. His experience since the sear 1833 convinced him that it would be impossible to keep the old lady's head long abo ve wa t er under the present sy s t em . Panics in' the Money Market every second or third year, and unable, with constant tinkering of the kettle, borrowing from the Bank of France, and appliances of " the screw" to boot, to bring the bullion above the mark which old Rothschild declared below the minimum of solvency, it has been necessary to keep on " the screw," without ceasing, since October, 1839. Sometimes there has been a partial re laxation of its force, but nothing' more. The system has not yet recovered from the shake, and a fortnight of adverse weather in the neck of next harvest would make the Di rectors tremble in their shoes. They could not stand against such another drain as that which they experi enced in 1839. With all the advantages of a sounder system of management, they have not strength to weather the storm. The old lady has never been herself again since that memorable disease attacked her bowels, and never will be again unless the free-trade doctors be called to her assistance. The Directors, in order to keep her alive, have been compelled to keep money scarce ever since, to look now with averted eyes at all commercial paper having more than sixty days to run, and use every possible and incesant vigilance and means to keep the handful of gold in their coffers from being drawn off by the unfavourable operation of the foreign exchanges. The conse quent effect upon the trade and commerce of the country has been most painful and distressing ; low prices and forced ex portation of goods in the elementary state to keep hands from .tarving. But all insufficient to turn the scale, and the short hour working of the mill-owners must soon turn to no hours at all, unless a change in our tariff be immediately adopted; un less the principle of protection on imports be substituted for the principle of revenue. It is plain that this must be the speedy result of persevering in the present prohibitory system. It is impossible, w ith ou t a d m it t i ng f ore i gn corn and timber at a moderate duty to cure the disease which has attacked the vitals of our national prosperity. In no other way can our ex ports of manufactured goods be maintained from rapid decay, leaving a starving population in our great hives of labour; and the merchant and manufacturer hovering upon the verge of ruin. Mr. Horsley Palmer foresaw this just as plainly as we have stated it, and he therefore prayed the House of Commons to modify the tariff. What say you to this, gentlemen mono polists? Here we have you in the horns of a dilemma. Your peide and politics —your private class-interests as West India planters, East India merchants, and Canadian timber mer chants, and Brazil slave-helders—tell you that the national good and your breeches-pockets look to different points of the compass, but we have a good haul of you in the net, as proprie tors of Bank of England stock ; and you may rest assured that you have only to make the choice between supporting free trade far your country's good, or monopoly for your own private benefit, but decidedly for the ruin of the Bank of England. Now, in so far as the Bank of England, as a bank of issue, is concerned, you alone are the gainers. The people at large are the losers by the existence of the establishment in its functions of issue ; and looking on it as a close corporation, enjoying certain exclusive privileges, it is a matter of comparative indifference to the nation (it would, indeed, be much .to their profit) if the Bank of England, as a bank of issue, should cease to exist. The Bank has private interests to promote. It has to pay a large half-yearly dividend to its proprie tore, which has induced the managers to neglect their public duties. The only common interest which the public have with the proprietors of Bank Stock is, that while the chart er continues, while the B an k i s entrusted with the management of the currency, and is thus the mainspring of public credit, that confidence in her stability should be unshaken; ' and this cannot be the case unless the tariff on imports be mo dified as proposed by the Government. The joint-stock and private banks need not suppose that the public will retain con fidence in them, if they lose it for her ladyship. Unless she has gold to meet a panic, it Is plain enough they cannot sup ply it ; and if her head went fairly under water, they would soon find it expedient to shut shop. Supposing even that the Utopia of every man his own money-coiner was to take place; that every set of men who chose to start a bank should have the right of issuing as much paper as they chose, subject only to the check of weekly exchanges, it must be evident that, under the existing depressed and decaying state of our trade with the Continent, gold could not be kept in the country even to pay their differences. A temporary filip might thus be given to trade by increasing the amount of paper and inflating prices, but-it would merely be adding fuel to the flame—a fatal aggravation of the evil, by a false show of present relief; the hectic flush which plays in the cheek of consumption—that delusive gleam of returning health—often brightest just before the moment of dissolution. There is no effectual remedy for the decay of British manufacture, or for the relief of the thou sands of hodseless families who are starving in our thickly peopled towns, but the emancipation of our commerce from the shackles of monopoly There is no other way by which gold can he kept to preserve the convertibility of the currency —no other way by which the public credit can be maintained inviolate—no other way by which the government of the country can be conducted with permanence or success. TIMES.—The English Stock Market has been in a quiet state all day, and money was rather easier at 5 per cent. The meeting of the Proprietors of the British Iron Company took place to-day, Mr. Larpent in the chair, and was altoge ther a stormy affair, which is not to be wondered at, consider ing the disastrous losses that have accrued to those who em barked their capital in the undertaking. As was promised, in the circulars issued by the Directore a statemetit was con tained in the report read of the settlement of the matters in dispute between the Company and Mr. Attwood. As, they say, they had on more than ono occasion been fully au thorized to co so if it was possible, they were now happy to communicate the information of having effected a permanent settlement. They have agreed to pay Mr. Attwood 350,0001., and release him from all liability in the two hundred sha res w hi c h h e h e ld, i n di sc h arge of all-de mands he made upon the Company. They have already paid him 200,0001., and th e remaining • 150,0001. is to be paid on the Ist of March, 1844, interest in the meanwhile to be allowed upon it at the rate of 5 per cent. They value their property, machinery, &c., at 823,6041. 9s. 7d. ; stock in hand, cash and bock debts, at about 60,0001. ; and the mineral production of their estates at 45,0001. per annum. These valuations, they state, had been prepared with much caution, for the purpose of giving the best information possible to the proprietary. The report also contained a variety of accounts connected with the company, but from none could be taught any estimate of the liabiiitit s as compared with these assets, but it was understood to be mentioned by the Chairman, that by this se ttl ement w i t h Mr. Attwood an immense sum had: been saved, considering the amount claimed, which would have swallowed up the greater part of the assets. The Report concluded with a desire expressed on the part of the Directors to have the fullest inquiry into their affairs, and it was agreed that it should be printed with the accounts, and sent to every Proprietor. A discussion then arose on the election of two Directors to fill the vacancies occasioned by the retiring of Mr. Larpent and Mr. Horsley Palmer, who, however, offered themselves for re-election. 'They both first addressed the meeting, stating that without the fullest confidence could be placed in them, and without the majority by which they were elected was a large one, they would be more content to re tire from the scene altogether. Calumnies had been heaped upon them, they were pointed at as the cause of all the ruin of the concern, when, in fact, it was the lawsuit in which the Company had been engaged that had worked so disas trously against its prosperity. Without it was tte great voice of the meeting, they should wish to retire. Some of the Proprietors upon this expressed a wish that the election should not take place till after the report was in the hands of the general proprietary. They all would then have the opportunity of examining it in detail, and of testing the accounts, so that then an expression of confidence in the Directors, or the contrary, as the case might be, could be given upon satisfactory data. The mover for the re-election, note withstanding . these objections, went so far as to propose to the meeting the insertion in the resolution of an eulogy upon the characters of these gentlemen, but some strong remarks against such a course, altered their determination, and their election, as we understood it, was simply carried. The meeting then adjourned to the early part of June, which is the special meeting upon requisition, at which is to be discussed the propriety of dissolving the concern, and at which also will be appointed a Committee to investigate its affairs. Mr. Larpent said they we re qu it e ready at once to name parties, desirable persons, to form such a Committee. On the other hand, some of the Prop r ietors said the appoint ment of a Committee should come from any other source rather than the Direction. A good deal was said during the business of the validity of the promissory notes issued by the Company some contending that they were utterly worthless, and the Di rectors principally denying it. It was a most unaccountable circumstance at this meeting, that the Chairman (Mr. Larpent) expressed a most untena ble opinion, that the notice published of the affairs of the Bri tish Iron Company under this head was intended to effect a political objeet.. To show how completely the intention of that notice was misunderstood, or rather perverted, it is only necessary to bear in mind that it was nothing more than a de scription of a circular issued by the " United Shareholders," a body who represent that they are composed of no less than the holders of 2,000 shares, and who are, in all probability, of every shade of political opinion. Their objections to the settlement with Mr. Attwood and to the promissory notes are on legal groands, and can be met by legal arguments alone. At all events the Directors will not make any favourable impression of the goodness of their cause, if they stigmatize any attempt to make public the objections of a large body of their proprie tary as a political attack.

The was an idea that the Bank of England' might have issued some notice relative to an extension of its discounts, but tho transfer books, it must be remembered, will not close till next month.

The Railway Shares met rather an easier mark e t to-day, and were better supported. Great Western Railway Shares were at 28 to 29; London and Birming ham at 69; South-Western at 17i; and Croydon at A premium. Brighton were 31, Manchester and Leeds, New, 8 ; North Midland, 28i ; the Now, 51 ; and the South-Eastern, 17i discount. National Provincial Bank of England shares were* discount ; Provincial Bank of Ireland, 17 premium ; and Union Bank of Australia, 9 premium. It is satisfactory to state that Dr. Rolph, the able pro moter of emigration to Canada, has declared his inten tion of standing entirely aloof from the proceedings of the British North American Colonial Committee, in re lation to the timber and corn duties. This gentleman justly prizes his noble cause too highly to suffer it to be made a mere party question, with which it might ulti mately be confounded,' if not crushed. _ PRECE OF SUGAR. EFFECT OF MONOPOLY. Table showing the duty price of West India sugar is Mincing-lane, and comparing the same against that of foreign sugars. Lendon, May 21, 1841. Per Cwt. The Gazette of this evening will quote the average price of British Plantation Muscovado Sugar, ex- a. d. elusive of duty at 38 2 The actual quantity of We s t I n di a sugar so ld on account o f the importers, in the week ending the 18th instant, according to the returns made upon oath by the West India sugar bro kers, in conformity with the Act of Parliament, and on which quantity the above price is computed, consisted of 1,729 hhds. 228 trs..and 77 barrels. Manilla free labour sugar is worth, this week, 21s. per cwt., being 17s. less per cwt.. than the average price of West India sugar ; very naturally, the West India planters prefer 17s. per cwt. protection, which the monopoly gives them, to the 12s. which the Government recently proposed. But how will the industrious classes of this country like to pay them ? About 55., howe7er, oat of these 17s. never reach the West Inciia planters, for the following reasons—many of the West India merchants are shipowners likewise ; in their latter capacity they have the power of deciding what shall be the charge for freight from Jamaica to London ; this, for years past, was ha. per cwt., it is now 4s. 6d. The Mauritius sugars are brought double the distance at less, freq uen tly, thib half that charge ; and sugars from the Phillippine Islands, treble the distance, are sometimes brought for 2s. 3d. per cwt. Here, then, are 2s. per cwt. which the Jamaica planters are compelled to pay over and above the freight paid by their free labour competitors, nor cu they relieve theme ives froth the extortion, because those merchant shipowners have a lien on the produce of the island. If a ship were to run into Ja maica, and the captain of her announced his willingness to take sugar to London at 2s. 6d. per cwt., he would not be able to obtain lading for her, independent of the advances of money made by the merchants to the proprietors, who reside in this country, to satisfy their lavish expenditure. The prac tice of the Sngar Market will, without advances of that cha racter, convert the proprietors into debtors to the merchants. In order to enlighten the public on the subject, we will suppose a case, and thereby expose the real transaction ; we will suppose that C. and A. are proprietors, and that they consign their produce to B. and D., Wet India merchants, in London or Liverpool, these agents forthwith employ another, a broiler, to sell the sugar in the market at the duty paid price. The broker, so instructed, does sell to F. and G., grocers or refiners, 50 hhds. giving the sellers B and D, and the buyers F and E copies of the entry of sale in his book ; this copy, in the language of the market, is called a c astract-note, this note which recites the duty paid price firms the Teacher upon which many per cent age charges are computed. F. and E. the buyers, then send to the selling merchants, B. and D., for the dock delivery order, and request them to pay the duty on the sugar, so that the first operation in the market, turns the unfortunate proprietors C. and A. into debtors to B. and D., and their account is opened with the following item on the Dr. side:— To duty paid on your 50 hhds. of sugar £l,ooo To interest thereon, two months, (the sugar credit) 10 From this species of thraldom, the proprietors rarely escape, the merchants have them completely under their controul. for, should any dispute arise between the parties, the merchants turn round and say," Oh. very well, clear your account, anti consign your produce elsewhere. The extra charge which this adroit management of sales takes from the proprietors and puts into the managers' pockets, is equivalent to another 2s. per cent. ; nor is this all, for the proprietors are made to trust the buyers, so that if ehe latter become insolvent the proprietors lose not only the value of the sugar, but the amount prid for duty into the bargain. For instance, within the last three months, there have been a half-a-dosen heavy failures, wh sreln the proprietors have been creditors upon tee respective insol tent estates to the tune of 250 hhds., the duty on which No I, l d amount to about 5,0001., being just so much money needless/1. sacrificed in order that the commissions on managers rut and sales may be computed on the duty paid . price_ This chance—this risk- cannot be taken at less than 9d. per cwt. The proprietors, therefore, absolutely lose, by a combination of stratagem, ess. 9d. per cwt. on most of the sugar they consign to England. Let any proprietor who reads this statement refer to his last }car's account of sales, and the truth contained in the state ment will be at once apparent. There aresufficient reasons why free labour in our West India itlands cannot compete with slave labour in the Brazils. If free labour were fairly brought into operation agaiust slave labour, the produce of the former would expel that of thn latter from the market that is to say, if the sugars raised east of th e C a p e o f G oo d Hope, were admitted to the British markets, they could be refined here, and they would then surpass in quality all the slave labour sugar produced, and could be sold at a less price. On another occasion we shall advert freely to the exorbi tant charges made against the West India proprietors for supplies shipped to the plantations. THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE. Well ! we learn now, after years of silence or mystifi cation, that beyond the boundary wall which encloses: the aristocracy, there exists a people—swarming, indus trious millions—pinched by want—burdened with taxa tion—at whose sufferings, borne with wondrous patience, it is safe to laugh no longer. Silent though they have been—silent and inactive, we may mark how our rulers spontaneously move towards them for power. The late unlooked-for change in policy was not borh of clamour— it is not a boon granted to noisy supplication, or sulkily given to appease threatening wrath. No ! but just a confession wrung from aristocratic governors, that a fresh gain in power must be sought at the hands of the people--that right can . purchase might. Not inueh is offered—but the offer itself, though it were ten times less, is a concession that carries in its bosom all other concessions. In letters of burning light recent events have written the truth—that power is with the people, and that justice is the key to it. This lesson, it is for the people to con and to improve. If they can put up with little things, things little enough will be given, they may rest assuredless; marvellously les than what is promised. They owe the Ministerial note of hand 'to necessity, not to good-will. It IS for them to make the Most of their advantage. Ministers ask power—give them a v a st d ea l mugs than they want —more than they . can manage, except by doing Justice. " Moderate protection," say they, " help us to give you mOderate protection." The true policy of the people is not to refuse the help, but to give it in greater abun dance, for much greater objects than their rulers desire. " Abolition of monopolies" should be their response. " You shall have power' to put an end to all monopolies." The ruling party are now in the hands of the people. Let them trust nothing to the aristocracy of either section. Something must be done---the principle of class legislators is to do the least possible—that least can only be done by th e peop l e, who can do great t h ings much easier than little ones. The terms of the bargain rest with them for decision. If this great nation is again cozened it will be through the treachery of the middle classes. We will not suspect them of it. Famishing millions look up piteously into their face and cry, "give us our own bread—we ask no more—whip us for idleness—shoot us if you .-like for trespass, but do not starve us, and then punish us be cause we cannot live." This is the earnest ago nizing prayer of pining multitudes, though they utter it not — though in pride they turn their backs upon the middle classes and utter nothing. Within, their suffering's, and without, their haggard features, emaciated frames, and tears that will net keep down at the bidding of stern re solve, articulate this cry " give us our own—let not the exclusives rob us of our own." What will the middle classes dcs we mean the electors ? Will they respond to Ministers or to the people ? Will they carry PROTEC WON Or REPEAL ?—Non-Conformist. CROYDON POLICE. .A . young man named Scriven attended before Messrs. Waring:ton and Currie, the proiiding Magistrates at the Town-hall, on Tuesday, to answera charge of assault pre ferred against him by a person named Freeman, a member of the Society of Friends, arising out of the following circumstances. It appeared that the complainant, who is a stanch tee totaller, had resolved upon giving a lecture to the inha bitants of Croydon upon the subject of teetotalism, an d on Thursday last he sent a bellman round the town to Five notice of his intention to do so at the back of the town-hall, and, accordingly, at the app o i n t e d h our, a number of navigators from the railway an d ot h er loose characters assembled, and Mr. Freeman having i nnwite d upon a tub proceeded to harangue them. The people appeared to g i ve very little cred ence to-what he said, and at length a navigator got on the s h ou ld ers of one of his compani ons and held- up a shovel, and asked the lecturer whether he thought a man could use such a tool if he drank nothing but water. This w as the signal for a general row, during which the lect urer was very rou ghly handled, and his clothes were nearly torn from his back, and he was obliged to run into a tradesman's house for shelter while the police were sent for, and they escorted him out of th e town. The defendant was stated to have been one of the parties who was concerned in the attack upon the complainant. The Magistrates asked Collier, the inspector of police for this district, how it was that such a meeting, which was almost sure to result in a breach of the peace, was permitted to take place in the public highway? The inspector replied that lie had not the least idea of any such meeting or lecture being intended. He was absent from Croydon on other duty, or he should most certainly have prevented it from taking place. - The complainant here exhibited his coat, or rather the remains of it, and assured the Bench that he had been most shamefully treated. The Magistrates told him he had no one to blame but himself. If he had minded his own business instead of getting a mob to c ,‘-other in the public street the occur rence would not have taken place. The Bench then said that under the circumstances they should ordcr the defendant to pay a fi ne o f one sh i ll i n g and the costs. • No. 36, OLD BOND-STREET, and No. 1, OLD JEWRY, CITY.

The festivities at the chateau of Thursday evening were kept up till an early hour on Friday. There was a dance in the theatre after the play, and a grand supper concluded the enjoyments of the night. The presents given to the performers this evening by the Duke and Duchess of Orleans were very handsome. Mdlle. Docile and Mdlle. Balthazar received brooches set with stones. Arnol was paid 500 f. for the evening, and his expenses. The cost of the dramatic representation of this evening, and the same for the other day, is estimated at 4,000 f. On Friday evening, after the dinner given by the Duke and Duchess of Orleans, the Gymnase company per formed Bocquet Pere et Fils and Les Vieux Peches. Some elegant presents were made to the performers by their Royal patrons. 11.Idlle. Nathalie received a rich bracelet, Mdlle;Jullienne a gold pin, and Mdlle. Maria a gold chain. On Saturday there was a stag hunt in the forest, in which the Prince took part ; and a stag, which was driven near the chateau, was killed in the presence of the Duchess of Orleans, and the ladies who were his Royal HighneSs's guests. The animals'were brought into the grand court, and reckoned over by torch-light. • The Constitutionnel gives the following particulars of the Duke of Orleans's hunting establishment:— " Hunting is out of date ; our customs and the divi sion of estates are contrary to its continuance ; nor does it find in the higher classes the opulence necessary to its maintenance. The Duke of Orleans piques himself, and with some show of reason, upon his taste for the chase ; in this he does not bow to prejudice, but to wise considerations. Nevertheless, he to this pleasure de votes only what a Prince may devote. His principal hunting 'establishment is at St. Germain's, under Firmin, his first whipper-in. The pack is not numerous, but suf ficiently well broken-in to catch a stag in two hours or two hours and a half, the mean time. Generally the runs take place without the Prince, M. de Cambis being his representative. MM. de Nicolai, Beranger, de Caumont, de Laigle, and Godefroy Jadan, often attend them, for the purpose of choosing subjects for their tableaux. " The pack accomplishes its four runs or five a month, and the result is honourable enough and positive enough to merit some attention. A recent fact will give an idea of the quality and ardour of the dogs. The pack was one morning at play upon the terrace of St. Germain's, a promenade which it patronises twice a day regularly ; the dogs started a hare, which was a-squat at the foot of the palings, and hunted it right outside of the forest, through the gate Dauphine. In the evening Mr. Birkett, an English gentleman, came by the pack on horseback, and accompanied by a mongrel cur, of a size and colour likely to remind the dogs of the hare they lost in the morning. Scarcely had our horseman passed the pack than, abruptly turning round, he set off at full gallop without calling his dog, which was playing very prettily with a few leaves a short distance off. Bow-wow turning about to look for his master. saw him already far enough away, and took to his heels after him ; but by this precipitate departure edged on the pack, which forthwith set off full speed too, and, in spite of the efforts of the whipper-in, and of the hounds' valets, who, in consequence of the mishap of the morning, were more attentive than before, the poor wretch of a dog was hunted full cry, and with unparalled obstinacy to the bridge of the Picq, where he was caught and torn to pieces. THE CHARTISTS AND PHYSICAL FORCE MEN DEFEATED WITH THEIR OWN WEAPONS,—A meeting was held, on Monday evening last, at Carpcnters' Hall, convened by a Chartist placard, to consider th e propriety of electing Dr. M‘Douall to the Conventi on , for another fortnight ; and it was announced, t h at t h at true friend of the people, C. J. Harney, would address them. There were various prices charged for admission to the platform. the body of the room, and the gallery. The Chartists a.,se.illikscl and commenced ; but it appears, that some scurrilous attacks on Mr. O'Connell, in the Northern Star, had so aroused the feelings of his country men in this town, that they determined on meeting. the Chartists on their own ground.
