THE RAILWAY SUN IS NOW PUBLISHING, PRICE ONLY SIXPENCE. Mlll5l WATER AT LONDON MKIDOE TO-51ORROW Morning..„.. 6 minutes e a ter 5 I Evening minutes after P. LONDON: THURSDAY, JULY 22, 1841. Bread was yesterday raised in price through out the metropolis; and subsequent to that rise the price of wheat rose in the Corn Market 2s• per quarter. It is expected, therefore, with rea son, that next week the price of bread will rise again, and that ere long the 41b. loaf of best flour will be 12d. or 13d. This is a somewhat alarming circumstance, conjoined with the fact that considerable distress already pervades the manufacturing districts. Dear bread and a starving people will be fatal auguries for the commence ment of the Tory Administration; and a short harvest, should that be the dispensation of the ALMIGHTY, curtailing the already deficient re venue, and cramping the circulation, will not lighten the difficulties of Sir ROBERT PEEL. The Tory Journals will probably say he can not answer for the seasons, and a calamity in flicted on the nation by means of a rainy sum mer, is one of those afflicting dispensations which we cannot explain nor prevent, and it becomes us all to bear it with patience, while each should lend a hand to cheer and support the other. Having so preached, following their usual cus tom, the Tory Journals will enjoin obedience to the law, and confidence in the Ministers who take office to uphold the Bread-tax as a sacred duty and a certain remedy for every disaster and every distress. Their philosophy and their recommendations will be misplaced. Both might be seasonable if they came from disinterested parties; but they proceed from the advocates of a law which at the present moment levies a duty of 235. Bd. on a quarter of wheat for the benefit of the land lords. If there were no such law, and no such tax, the Tories might with prop r i ety preach up patience under the visitations of Providence; but that law and that tax relieve the justice of th e ALMIGHTY from the imputation of vi s i t i ng his children with evil, and throw the whole bl ame of it orithe Legislature. • Pt is true that the ALMIGHTY sends good and bad. seasons, but the deficiency of the supply o f food, the circumstance which makes an un fruitful season so heavy a calamity—is caused by the law. That has prevented us having enough stored up to meet such a visitation as a bad har vest—that has kept large masses of our population •ino• them on the verge of famine, instead of allow „ to be fed full, and that makes every little defi ciency in the crops an unspeakable calamity. We throw back the impious accusation on the landlords, and we charge 'them—rescuing Divine Providence from their calumnies—with being the authors of a deficient supply of food. The philosophy of the Tories might be good in an economic sense, if they did not advocate the Corn-law. They could then, with propriety, tell the starving population to rely on their own resources,—to submit patiently to what could not be avoided; but how can they do so, while they maintain a law which is to bestow wealth on themselves? As long as the Corn-law exists, which the landlords say is to secure em ployment and good wages to the people, but which certainly interferes both with their work anti their payment, they have a right to claim full employment and fair wages from the law. Shall it secure remu neration to the farmer and not to the weaver ? Shall it keep up rent and not keep up profit? Shall it augmelit tithes and not be required to augment wages ? Ithpossible, unjust ! The Corn laws give alt the labourers of the empire a right at all times to be provided by the Legislature with plenty of _employment and good wages. The law creates the right and cannot destroy it, _ . except by ceasing to exist. -. • Ou.r.at*lce . ., to the . labourers, therefore, is not a dis t b *tO ito tlic — n W L _an - . . e.of.work and low wages as they are r 2 rovidence, but to assert that thecongequenee of the - la'r, and to mand that I tor.. t a b crure . . 7 ,-.,..i . 11 4. ,Ili7.rovide work and wages - - • 11 3. 1 5,111 1 1 . t* remunerati on per. . , • •,- u 4 ig , ',„ 5145,,,,,' ' lA_ , i', l tL'Ur-' ---/'' .^-1.. -- • "1.

The general tendency of society, illustrated by so many facts, and traced in countries so far apart, may surely be called, if any body br general facts may, a law of nature. 13 u t this law of naturz.. Sir R. PEEL and Lord STANLEY, by the help of a few parsons and. landlords, are to set aside. They have a majority of the House of Commons pledged to that undertaking. They take office on the principle of preventing the equal diffusion of wealth, science, and art. They take office to maintain existing mono polies, and, maintaining them, they must restore monopolies which have ceased to be. They take office to war not only against ho nesty and justice—not only against industry, for thesake of idleness, but to war against the pro gress of the human race and the equal diffusion of the blessings of civilization. They take office, moreover, to war against the course of nature, and. the ordinances of GOD. If they could be suc cessful, which happily they cannot, they would only degrade England, now the queen and leader of nations, into the last and meanest of the whole family of mankind. There is no denying the fact, that the Repeal - agitation is rapidly gaining ground in Ireland. Were we dis posed to regard the cry of repeal as confined to a hand ful of the blind followers of Mr. O'CoNNELI„ the grand entertainment given •on Tuesday last by the City and. County of Cork to Mr. O'Coxisma, as the chief °Me Repeal Association, wouldlmpress us with a very different conviction: 'rho near approach of the return of the Tories to power fills Ireland with apprehension and alarm ; and in the southern capital of the kingdom it is now diffioult'for any man to obtain a hearing who does not znito with the populace in demanding a Repeal of the 'Legislative Union. In support of this assertion, we refer our readers to a report of the proceedings at the great Repeal Festival at Cork, which will be found in another part of The Sun. Having always conscientiously advocated the political and legislative union of the two countries, in opposition to Mr. O'CONNELL, it is not without anxiety that we see, among other evils, in the restoration of the Tories to office an irresis tible impulse given to the only mischievous mea sure et on foot by the great Agitator. If the Repeal agitation ever find an echo out of Ireland, it will be in consequence of Tory oppre ss i on —if R epea l ever b e car ried, it will be by a Tory Government acting under Irish coercion, The news contained in the French journals of Tues day was anticipated in our afternoon edition of yester day. 'We have therefore only to select the following paragraphs from them :- - A telegraphic despatch received at Nantes on the 15th , directs Si. Dellarald, principal Commissioner of Police at Nantes, to repair to Toulouse, there to exercise provisionally the functions of Special Commissioner. The despatch added that he would find at Toulouse M. Maurice Duval, the Extra • ordinary Commissioner of the Government. M. Dellara'Ale set out post, on the 16th, in the tnornieg. A young performer of the Theatre de la Porte Saint Martin, had had his name entered at the church of the Blanc Manteaux, to be married in the course of the month. When he returned to fix the day for performing the ceremony, the Vicar in person appeared to tell him that he could not marry an actor, and that there was an express prohibition by the Archbishop of Paris.— Le Constitutionnel. The Datiao frigate, Captain 011isier, sailed on the 14th from Brest, for Cronstadt, where it will take on board Baron Barante, Ambassador of France at the Court of St. Peters burgh, when Mr. Casimir Perier will succeed him as charge d'affaires.—L'Armoricai n . We remark in the Memorial Bordelais of the 18th a telegraphic despatch from Toulouse of the 16th, addressed by Bother to the Prefect of the Gironde, which concludes with the following lines. " The spirit of the troops is excel lent; the insult offered to the person of the King, in the per son of his representative, will not remain unpunished, the power of the law and the Government will prevail. An exam ple will be made."—Le Commerce. The Gazette de Lausanne mentions a horrible tragedy which has just place at Villeneuve. An inhabitant of St. Clerges had long sought the hand of lladlle. Champel, daughter of one of the late governors of the Castle of Chillon, but his offers of marriage had been obstinately rejected by her family, as beneath them. He was heir to an urcle who had property, and he wished to get from him a cession of part of in, in order that he might have a better chance of success in his suit. On the 6th inst. he went to his uncle's residence ; his demand of cession was refused, and a discussion ensued, at the end of which he drew forth a pistol, shot his aunt, who was sitting near his uncle, dead on the spot, and then discharged another pistol at the latter, but the ball only grazed his forehead. Thereupon he fled, and went to Clarens, where he breakfasted in an ion, without any apparent signs of emotion. He then went to Villeneuve, and prowled for a long time round the house where Madlle. Champel lived. At last he met her out of doors, and took her to the entry of a path leading through some gardens to the lake. Here a conversation ensued, the nature of which is not known, but just as the young lady was leaving him to enter her house, he shot her dead with a pistol, and the next minute blew out his own brains. There were found upon him two other pistols loaded, a poniard; and a sword-stick. The Augsburgh Gazette gives the following account of the number of passengers conveyed on the German railroads, and the gross receipts during the month of June. Vienna to Brunn, 22,128 passengers; receipts for passengers and goods, 71,304 florins. Munich to Augsburgh, 25,037 passengers ; receipts 26,565 florins. Mauheim to Heidelberg, 29,409 pas sengers. Nuremberg t o F urt h, 44 , 6 47 passengers; receipts 5,213 florins. Leipsic to Dresden, 50,249 passengers ; receipts 38,881 nix dollars.

Cologne to Aix-la-Cha pelle, number of passengers and amount of receipts not known. Berlin to Anhalt, 24,642 passengers. Vienna to Raab : this road was opened as far as Baden in May, and on the 20th of June to Neustadt. On the 27th June, there were 17,000 pas sengers conveyed, and on the 29th 20,000. Lintz to Bildweis (in the month of May) 1,603 passengers. Linz to Gunundcn (May) 11,061 passengers, and 46,434 quintals of goods. Pres burgh to Tyrnaur, the first of the railways in Hungary, num ber of passengers from the 28th September, 1840, to the 30th April, 1841, 25,132 passengers; receipts 5,467 florins.—The florin is equal to two francs and a half. From among the 7,000 ancient pieces of coin, found at Cuerdale, in Lancashire, last year, none of which are of later date than 910, and of which nearly 3,000 were of the Anglo- Saxon era, a portion have been sent over to Paris by order of her Majesty, in pursuance of the following letter addressed to Mr. E. Hawkins, keeper of Antiquities inthe British Museum : " Sir,—l am directed by Lord Clarendon to inform you that, struck with the idea that some specimens of the ancient coins which were found last year at Cuerdale, in Lancashire, might be a suitable addition to the collection in the Royal Library at Paris, his Lordship is happy at having obtained from the Queen, to whom they belong in right, as Treasure trove, in her quality of Duchess and Countess of Lan caster, permission to reserve a selection for the above mentioned purpose. A list of these coins, with the coins themselves, accompanies this, and Lord Clarendon desires me to express to you the great satisfaction he will have in seeing that you accept becoming the intermediary for transmitting these objects to the Royal Library at am, &c.-- FR. DAWES Daszveas."—ln consequence of the above com munication 195 pieces of silver coin have been sent to Paris. Among them are 2 of Charlemagne, 1 of Louis-le-Debonnaire, with the surname of Pius, 9 of Charles-the-Bold, struck in dif ferent towns, with others of Louis 11., Carloman, Eudes, Charles-the-Simple, Beranger, and Lambert. Among those of the Anglo-Saxons are 7 of Alfred-the-Great, 6 of Saint Ed mund, and 40 various pieces without any names of kings, seve ral of which are curious imitations of the French Carlovingian coin. They are all in fine preservation, and several were pre viously unknown. The Memorial of Rouen announces that M. L. C., depo sitary of cotton thread, in that town, has absconded, carrying away 350,000 fr., entrusted to him by several capitalists of that town. On the 13th instant, at a letter from Calais states, twelve English fishing•smacks came and dredged the French oyster. beds on that coast, anki afterwards sailed with their cargoes for England. Next day the Pluvier Guarda Costa entered Calais harbour, and remained for the day ; but soon after she had taken her departure fifteen English smacks came again and dredged the beds. Captain Freissauf, of the Austrian service, has invented an apparatus applicable to loconeotive engines on railroads, by means of which the conductor can instantaneously detach an engine from the waggons it is drawing. The apparatus is also so contrived that, if the engine should get off the rails, the disjunction would be thereby effected of itself, without the in tervention of the conductor. URIMARY OF NEWS Ai li public Opinton. " Who runs may read." ABROAD. roitzrGN-COLONLELL. AL Theirs will not honour Germany with a visit this year. The ex-Premier is angry because some of the German Courts signified their intention only to re ceive him as a private person. Were M. Thiers re ceived according to his deserts, it would not be either as an ex-Minister or as an individual, but as a political in cendiary. Our Correspondent at Carlsruhe writes us the fol lowing letter dated the 14th of July :—" This evening the office of the Gazette of I.7pper Germany was suddenly surrounded by officers, and the armed force entered the printing office just as the journal was going to press, A Commissary of Police who, fearing that the workmen would resist, had caused himself to be escorted in this manner, made the most minute search, took possession of the proofs, and, in general, conducted himself as if ho imagined that a revolution in duodecimo was concealed in the peaceful atelier. A privy councillor. M. Gziegler, who is the censor of the journal, commanded the expedi dition. Nobody can account for this strange visit, which has put the whole town in confusion. People talk of a Rus sian affront, or a Prussian requisition, of the•discovery of a conspirficy, &c. His Grace the Duke of Beaufort, accompanied by his family and a numerous suite, arrived at Brussels, on the 18th inst., on his way to Hanover. The third Musical Festival of Northern Germany takes place this week at Hamburgh. Beethoven, Hands 1, and Weber are to unite their harmonies. The orchestra will consist of five hundred musicians. We have one clay's later intelligence from the United States. The news, which is not important, will be found in another column. Twenty-four hours is, however, too short a period for even Brother Jonathan to go far a head. The French Journals of Tuesday are all occupied with the riots at Toulouse. They therefore supply nothing in the way of news or opinion with which our readers are not already acquainted. The Debuts of Wednesday states that two great political alliances will henceforth divide Europe—France, Austria, and Prussia on the one side, and England and Russia on the other. This division, we suspect, is some what apocryphal. Or has Lord Aberdeen been antici pating his Tory policy at the Foreign-office ? The Porte has ordered the Turks of Belgrade to be disarmed, in consequence of their cruel treatment of the Christians. AT HOME. MSCELZIANZOITS. On Monday, the 12th, a meeting of the inhabitants of Rotherham was convened for the purpose of condoling with the relatives of the sufferers in the late awful acci dent. Lord Howard forwarded his name to the subscrip tion list for 10/. The public road between the end of Oxford-street and Bayswater is universally complained of. This road. as all the world knows, is bounded on one side by Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, and on the other by splendid mansions, paying rents from 5001. to 700/. a year ; and yet this patrician, this royal road of all the roads leading out of the metropolis, is the only one which after nightfall is left in utter darkness. The moment you leave Oxford-street it is all " pitch-dark." At the meeting of the Royal Agricultural Society, held at. Liverpool on "Wednesday, it was evidently in tended to exclude reporters, to favour, it was said, an Agricultural Magazine, one of the sleeping proprietors of which happened to be a Member of the Council ; but the attempt was overruled, and one reporter from each Paper admitted. The grand dinner was fixed for this day, and for the convenience of the numerous visitors a pavilion has been erected capable of holding 3,000 persons. among his opponents, he will gain two votes upon. most divisions: Tll6 Post congitlttis; hoitotrt 010 the - TO!c party by their conduct at the opening of Parliament iii 1835, prevailed on the House to establish the principle that the politics of the Speaker shonld harmonise with the politics of the majority of the House, and indeed it was in conformity with that principle, that Mr: Lefevre himself Was chased: Ilpon this Account, therefore, the donseivative party, gays the Fists shttuici he against his re-election. The Herald takes a rational view of the choice of Speaker. It abhors any propositions of party in relation to any gentleman who has filled the chair with dignity honour, and impartiality, and is convinced that Mr. Shaw Lefevre has earned the respect of al. parties. The independent electors, of Scotland and Ireland are now attacked daily in the most ferocious language by the great organ of the Tories. No epithet is too strong for that unprincipled Journal. The Irish are ferocioUs, fanatical, and ictoxicated barbarians : and the constitu ency of Hawick, consisting of the most independent and Liberal electors in Scotland, are described as " Old Slit rig savages." Had they sold themselves to the Tories, like most of the old freemen in English boroughs, they would have been disgraced by the praise of the Times. The Worcestershire Chronicle observes that the Tories are wise in laying on oppression. The Tories can calculate pretty exactly the extent of,oppression to which John Bull can submit ; they know how far they can just load him without inflaming him to kick off his burdvn, and turn upon his drivers, and they will hardly pass that line. With regard to the stumbling-blocks in the way of Ireland's quietude and desire for justice, says the Dublin Evening Post, " the priests are terrible men, and ohould be suppressed if possible. But how are you to go about it ? The only effectual way would be to murder the priests. But, then, there is some difficulty here. You must have at the very least, 200,000 men in Ireland before you can commence operations, and these would cost money. Besides, remember, that more than one half of hor Majesty's troops are Irish Papists, and chances are that three-fourths of any new levies would be Irish Papists also." These are mere hints, saith the Post. The Cheltenham Examiner thus pointedly speaks, alluding to the Tory majority :—" It is said to be a ma jority of eighty ; but a majority of eighty for what ? Not for Stanleyism towards Ireland ; not for Church Extension in England ; not even for opposition to Ballot and Franchise Reform—but a majority of eighty only for that question on which the Liberal party always have been confessedly the weakest, and invariably hitherto, in a minority, viz. the Corn-laws. Last year out of 477 Members who voted on Mr. Villiers' motion, the To) y majority was no less than 123. But did it follow that therefore the same majority existed against all Liberal measures ? Manifestly not." The Times, generously remarks the Ayr Observer (a Tory organ), in commenting on the state of the elec tions, chooses to be somewhat gross and unjust in re ference to the Scottish returns. We would have wished that the re-action had been greater ; but we cannot join in attributing the Liberalism of the " inferior portion of the middle classes"—as .the Times asserts—either to " vulgar pride and conceit," or to a vain-glorious desire of being "a century in advance of all England and lre- Ind in point of leeterature and leeberality." Such a truly vulgar gibe is not only unworthy Of the " Leading Journal," but essentially wrong. • BOURSE-PARIS, TUESDAY, JULY 20. rm ,, f 112 made the rnoltitvriP A nobleman can have no finer cloth back than the great bull of the tni • v. • '•"!•`••• f irst Highest Lowest Last Price Price.

Yachting has lately been on the wane in Ireland, but the Members of the Club are now trying to get up a regatta on the Lower Shannon for next month. ELECT/OLTEMILING. The military despotism, and obstruction exercised at the Carlow election, will be obvious in the single in stance of Mr. Symes, which appears in another part of The Sun. Speaking of the Wexford election, the Dublin Evening Post remarks :—" The fourth candidate, Mr. S. C. Hall, occupies a strange position on the poll : he has not obtained a single vote. He ought, we think, to vote for himself, if it were only to displace the queer-looking cypher. We hear that this second of the Tory candidates i 3 no other than the husband of the lady of that name now engaged in writing ' Sketches in Ireland.' " William Morgan, who fired upon the crowd while they made a disturbance round his house at Waterford, has refused to be bailed out. The children wounded are doing well, and even the girl Mountain will, it is thought, retain her sight. At Waterford, the electors assembled in the Town hall on Friday, to make arrangements for petitioning against the undue return of the two Members, and to re sist the attempts of the Tory party to deprive them of their rights and franchise. Mr. Wyse said that he should consider himself disgraced, un-English, and un-Irish, if he did not vindicate the electors. The preparation of a petition was accordingly proposed and carried.

The right to be offended at the free exercise of an electoral qualification is described as a right of property, from which it follows that the right of property in the land lords is the duty of slavery in the tenants. The same journal, writing on the same subject, de scribes Mr. Bolling's workmen as " enabled by him to acquire the franchise as occupiers of his houses., in the I belief and und erstanding that they have no political opi nions that will lead them to vote against him."

Lord John Russell has forwarded from Scotland an Address to the Electors of London, in which he points out the policy to be pursued by his party in the new [louse of Commons. He thanks the electors for their suffrages, and states that he would have done this at an earlier period, but he was desirous first to know the result of the elections. That being against him, he states that the retirement of his party from of fice will immediately follow the condemnation of their policy, and that they would consider it inconsistent with their duty to harrass the Government of the day by vexatious opposition. They are resolved, however. to adhere firmly to the principles which led to their defeat, and confidently look forward to ultimate success. ThITIVIOTTAZS Or THE EAT. We believe, with satisfaction, that Mr. Macaulay , as he is yet to have one opportunity more as a Minister, of defending the Government policy, has taken to study the questions of the day ; so that he may not be again under the painful necessity of reading Lord Palmerston's speech to explain their bearings to his constituents. Being well aware of the great talents of the Honourable Gentleman, we are sure that if he devote half as much time to that as he must have done to Pere Cyran and La Mere Angelique he will yet do the good cause which has thrust him into power and opulence, and to which he owes some alle giance, great service. We are not even without hope, if he turn his attention to the matter, that he may find in our suffering hand-loom weaver population as fit themes for his eloquence, and as bright examples of cheerful submisSion to an over-ruling destiny, as in the attenuated advocates and worn-out soldiers, running from the world from disappointment or superstition, whom he has dignified and ennobled. Should he set before the world the suffering and patience of our population with the same mastery of diction as he has described the resignation Of the recluses of Port Royal, he will go far to achieve a victory for humanity mid freedom, and inspire the world with respect for talents which have latterly been wasted on a very indifferent theme. A split among the Tories has already manifested itself respecting the Speakership. The more rational of the party propose, Mr. Shaw Lefevre, and the other Sir Eardley Wilmot. Indoed the very idea of electing a Liberal was never fei. -an instant thought of by the Orangemen. Everything must be carried by a high hand, and if Sir Robert become restive they will choose another leader. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. The Moniteur of Wednesday (yesterday) publishes a We -1 graphic despatch from Toulouse, of the 20th,. stating that all was quiet in that city, and that order had not been disturbed in the neighbouring. departments. The Prefect of Lower Rhine had arrived in Paris. The Mayor and Municipal Council of Strasburg persisting in their refusal to assist the revenue officers in executing the census ordered by M. Humann, the Government had appointed the Commissaries of Police for that purpose. The Courier da Midi of the 17th inst. announces that two battalions left Montpelier on the preceding evening for Tou louse. The people accompanied them out of town singing the " Marseillaise," and crying to the troops, " Do not fire upon the people; spare your brothers." Considerable excitement prevailed in Montpelier. The French Funds declined yesterday, in consequence of an apprehension that the energetic orders given to General Rul hieres by Marshal Soult would be resisted, and occasion a fresh collision in Toulouse. It was also feared that the spirit of re volt would extend to other towns in the south. The incle mency of the season was likewise beginning to excite serious uneasiness. The Hereditary Prince of Coburg was expected this week in Paris, where, it was reported, that he was to be married to Princess Clementina. The Danae frigate had sailed from Brest for Cronstadt, where she is to take on board M. de Barante, the French Ambassa dor, and convey him to France. Several commercial houses had stopped payment in the Austrian capital. Our intelligencee from Madrid of the 14th inst. is unim portant. The Five per Cents. were dove at 255 11-16, for cash. The Debats of Wednesday has a very singular article on the just signed Treaty, stating that henceforth France, Austria, and Prussia will be united in a European Conference against England and Russia, the latter being interested, and the three others disinterested protectresses of the :East. It distinguishes the new from the old Treaties about the Straits, saying that the Porte can no longer open these Straits, whilst before its might do so. Prince Metternich is recovered, and sets out for Nhemia on the 22d. The Turks of Belgrade have been disarmed by order of the Pachan The Consifikft , sstnt4 denies that any treaty, involving the trentfve of the line of French custom-houses to the Dutch and tterman frontiers of Belgium has taken place, as the manu facturers in wood and iron and the coalowners could not corn tete with these of Belgium, " A Council wa s held et &Wit) , NN iha 26th, alid also a!, file Admiralty.

The Westminster Mechanics Institution held its Seventh Quarterly Meeting, Mr. .1. C. Wood in the chair, en Weinesday evening. An able Report on the management of the Institution was read by the Secretary. It stated that there were upwards of 600 members (a great number for the summer months), and that the Institution was in a more fa vourable position than it has ever been, Mr. Paterson's mo tion, requesting a member to withdraw from tho Committee, from his h;ving undertaken to : execute work for the Institu tion while 2n the Cnnmittee, an act in direct opposition to one of its best rulthi: which states . tl.at.no member shall, directly or indirectly, rt , c:aivo any reuni;ry btmotit from tho IrEtito , im was lost an a rhvisii in by 14. - Mr. J.

As long as the law interferes with the food of the people, it takes on itself the awful responsibility, far greater than human power is equal to, of providing food and employment for the millions, and they have a right to look to it for comfortable subsistence. (The Monopolists say that the seasons are not under their control; but they act as if they were. If they are not, why not allow the people, uninterfered with, to watch the changes, and adapt their conduct to them ? Why interfere with what they cannot control—with what they know little or nothing of? Why rush between man and the manifestations of his Maker's will, disturbing and disordering those regular se quences of phenomena, a knowledge of which is necessary to guide his actions. Unless the whole of the circumstances connected with the supply of food, including the seasons, the indus try of the labourer, the skill of the farmer, and the appetite of the consumer, were under the control of the law-maker, it is the height of folly, or sheer madness, to interfere with some one of the circumstances, and so take on itself the obli gation of directing them all. • The rise in the price of bread, which we set out by stating, will be a proper theme for Lord STANLEY'S eloquence'. That agitator for dear corn and high rents, who is to be Se cretary fbr the Colonies, and one of the leading Members of the PEEL Cabine who is also hereafter to be Earl of DERBY. with an immense revenue, extorted by taxing the bread of the factory children and famishing spinners of Lancashire, that Right Hon. dema gogue and agitator for the starvation of the toil ing millions, by - whose labours he is enriched, will, in consistency, ascribe this rise in the price of bread to the exorbitant profits of the millers and the bakers, whom he, with a meanness quite worthy of himself, endeavoured at Lancaster to make the scape-goats for the landlords. We cannot assent to his doctrines. Whatever may be the profit of the bake'rs and the millers, it is the result of the competition of the market, nar_ rowed and influenced certainly by those Corn laws which Lord STANLEY maintains, but it is not directly enhanced, or intended to be en hanced, like Lord STANLEY'S rent, by a tax on the corn before it is made into bread. The vulgar cry against the bakers and the millers, which this demagogue Lord endea voured to revive after it has been ex ploded fbr nearly a quarter of a century, is perfectly unfounded, for they get nothing more than the proper reward of their labour, settled, as all prices ought to be settled, by what Dr. SMITH called the higgling of the market• The idle demagogue Lord's attempt to excise the prejudices of the vulgar against those useful labourers who grind corn and make bread, was equally unjust and mean. It was a base attempt to screen the idle bread-taxers, by insinuating false charges against those industrious classes. Whatever may be their gains, they are the ap propriate rewards for their services, freely given by other men, and do not enhance the price of the loaf a farthing beyond what is necessary. We deplore as much as most people the present unfavourable prospects, arising from an excess of rain. We deeply regret to see, as bankruptcy advances and employment slackens, that bread is rising in price ; but we cannot, therefore, neglect to direct public indignation against the true causes of these calamities, and we dare not forbear from holding up to merited re probation the hardened men who persist, for their own selfish purposes, in bringing calamity on the country, meanly accusing others, to screen them selves, and falsely ascribing it to Divine wisdom. Since we adverted yesterday to the tendencies of society, which the Tories are to oppose, we have met with a pamphlet, by Dr. CHANNING, entitled " The Present Age, Scc." the object of which is-to dilate on the fact, that the present tendency of society is " directly opposed to the spirit of exclusiveness." ' In looking at our age lam struck immediately (he says) with one commanding characteristic, which is the tendency in all its movements to expansion, to diffusion, to universality. This tendency is directly opposed to the spirit of exclusiveness, restriction, narrowness, mo nopoly, which has prevailed, in past ages. Human ac tion is now freer—more unconfined. All goods, ad vantages, helps, are more open to all. The privileged fettered individual is becoming less, and the human race is beceming more. The multitude is rising' from the dust. Once we heard of a few, now of the' many—once of the prerogative of a part—now of the right of all. We are looking, as never before, through the disguises, en velopments of ranks and classes, to the common nature which lies below them. He goes on to say, " that if we look at the va rious movements of our age, we shall see in them the tendency to universality and diffusion ;" and he illustrates his position by science, no longer " locked up in a few Colleges or Royal Societies, or inaccessible volumes "—" having its portals guarded by a dark phraseology," but, " with fa miliar tone, having left - her retreats, begun the work of instructing the race." lie illustrates it also by the tendencies of literature, by the fine arts, in which, though "the spirit of the great artists has died, still the taste for their works is spreading. By the improvement in engraving and the invention of casts, the genius of the great masters is going abroad. Their works are no longer pent up in galleries only open to iew, but meet us in our houses, and are the household pleasures of millions.° The mechanical genius of the age, which some ethereal souls are wont to mock at, is essentially the genius of multiplication, which, far from being confined to cotton cloth and knives, has extended itself to the very noblest works of the sculptor and the painter, and has spread, or is spreading, copies of them at a small cost through every hamlet of every country of the civilized globe. Dr. CHANNING also illustrates this tendency of our age by the progress of religion, by the con duct of the Government, and by extension of trade; on which, as very appropriate just now, we copy the following paragrah : Allow me to say a word to the merchants of our country on ar.other subject. The time is come when re are particularly called to take yet more generous anti c t o th e ~/. view s of their vocation, and to give commerce a univer sality as yet unknown.

This tendency of the age might be illustrated by those mechanical advantages of travelling, which, in this country, and wherever rail roads and steam-boats are introduced, place the very best and swiftest method o f conveyance at the command of almost the meanest man of the empire, and; make it im possible for the richest noble to be better con veyed than he, for he shares with the noble the steamboat, and is whirled along on . the. railroad with the same velocity.
