MORNING SUN. CONDITION. OF AGRICULTURAL LABOURERS. I visited their cottages, and obtained specific accounts of their furniture, dietaries, wages, and other circum stances that affect their comfort. I will first describe the cottage and mode of living of a Sussex labourer, whose family is such as to make him one of the most distressed of his class. He has a wife and seven chil dren, the eldest of whom is a girl aged twelve, and all the rest happen to be girls, except one boy five years old. On entering, the cottage displays a room about 20 feet long by 15, paved with brick, and nearly divided into two by a partition ; the fire-place is here, and it forms the sitting-room of the family. The furniture consists of one common-looking deal table, a rather elegant round oak one, with moveable flaps, a maho gany cupboard, and six chairs ; there are curtains to the windows. Adjoining is a pantry - , which seems tilled with all sorts of cooking utensils, and a bake ;l, else, where the family bake once a week, as it is the custom in these parts, bakers being rarely employed. Up stairs there are two bed-rooms, in one of :which the man, his wife, and the baby sleep, and in the other, which contains three beds, the rest of the children. They pur chase six gallons of flour weekly, which is made into bread or cakes with potatoes. They drink tea made with burnt crusts, China tea being too expensive now. Since the price of sugar has risen, t 39 have been obliged to give up its use ; but a qaarter of a pound is bought weekly to sweeten the pap for the baby. They have no meat ex cept on a Sunday, when a meat pudding is made ; and none of the family ever tastes beer, except, perhaps, the man gets some now and then from his master. The man is in constant work at 12s. a-week, but sometimes he gets piece -work, and then earns 15s. weekly. The cot tage, which is rented at 2s. weekly, is clean and well drained ; its literary furniture consists of two Bibles and a New Testament : there is no Prayer-book, as the in mates are Dissenters. The distress of the family arises from the unusual circumstance that the children are nearly all girls, and hence can earn nothing. Were the eldest or the second a boy, he would probably add 2s. to 3s. a-week to the general income by assisting his father. The actual weekly expenditure is as follows : s. d. 6 gallons of flour at 16d 8 0 1 lb. soap 0 3i i lb. candles 0 44 1 lb. butter 1 0 1 lb. sugar 0 21 11 lb. meat 0 9 Yeast 0 3 Starch, pepper, and salt ....... 1 lb. cheese 0 6 Worsted, cotton, tape, &c 0 3 Total Here, and subsequently in the account; of the weekly expenditure of labourers, I shall not insert the rent or clothing, as I find that these are generally not lipid for weekly, but are reserved to be paid off at har vest, or at odd times, when more than the usual wages arc.. earned. Here is another wooden cottage, in bad repair, con taining four rooms, which cost 301. to build, and is rated at 2s. 6d. a week. It is tenanted by a man, his vrif, and four children—two boys, a girl, and an infant. They sleep in the two upper rooms ; the two boys in a bed in one room, and the man, his wife, and the baby, in one bed in the other, a contrivance being made upon the floor for the girl to sleep. The sitting room is ten feet square, and contains two plain deal tables. and a very small stained one, a neat corner cupboard, three shelves with earthenware ; a few small ornaments are on the chimney-piece, and above it hang some small prints in black frames. There is a calico window-curtain, two small bits of carpet on the floor, a cradle, four chairs, and an arm-chair. Some swinging-book-shelves, with religious books. Altogether this cottage has a neat, cleanly, and orderly appearance. The man's earnings are 13s. a week, but he is occasionally out of work : the wife, from ill-health, earns but little. The family consume weekly 51 gallons of flour, 3 gallons of pota tos, 11b. of cheese, -A- oz. of tea, 2 oz. of coffee, 4 lb. of suyar for the infant, 31d. worth of milk, lb. of soap, 1 lb. of candles, 1 cwt. of coals. I have at former times frequently collected informa tion as to the precise method in which a labourer spends his wages ; and, as the point seems to me very important towards understanding the condition and economy of the p or, I will give several of their dietaries. In 183 i, an aged man and his wife expended their wr•elcly earnings of 6s. in the following way : a. 2 2 Bread, 2 gallons Bacon, Ilb Butter Ilb Tea, 2 oz. Sugar, Ilb Coals, 1 cwt Total It would be quite impossible for the old couple to live as well at at present, in consequence of the increased price of provisions ; but the tea, the sugar, and the bacon, now disappear from the board, and the money so saved gofs to pay the additional cost of the bread. At the same period, a man, his wife, and seven children, in Sussex, spent their wages thus : s. d. 6 gallons of bread 2* lbs. of bacon 2i lbs. of butter 1-. - oz. of tea. 0 6 1 lb. of sugar.... -?; lb. of candles.... lb. of soap 0 9 0 34 0 3 Total 12 9 The following is the expenditure of a labouring man, with a with and six children, at present. The contrast between these two cases is not so perfect as it might be ; as, in the preceding case, the labourer purchased bread ; in the following flour. The expense, therefore, of making the bread and baking it should be added to the account ;- and this will more than make up the 6d. difference in the whole sum. Though there is one less in family than in the last case, it will be obviotis how much the increased price of provisions has deteriorated the condition of the family : " 6 gallons of flour Yeast _ s. d. 8 0 0 3 1 lb. of meat and I , of suet 0 8 1 lb. of butter 1 lb. of cheese 0 6 -.I; lb. of candles lb. of soap o 31 Potatoes Worsted, starch, cotton, and tape... 0 3 No sugar. Total l2 3 I might insert numerous other examples of labour ers' dietaries ; but I trust the above will be sufficient to show, in some degree, how their wages are expended. They, however, are insufficient, as they do not show the quality of the articles procured. For instance, since the price of corn has risen, many of the labourers have been compelled to resort to an inferior sort of flour, termed " sharps," in order to obtain a sufficiency of food. Tea, were it not an article so subject to adultera tion, ought to have materially risen in price, as the im portation in 1840, compared with that of 1836, shows a diminution of 17,571,7621b5. I believe, however, the reason it has not , i s, t h at i ts place has been supplied by a deleterious mixture, of which some of the medical men make great complaints. It is now, too usually, drunk without sugar, as the great rise in price in the latter article has caused it nearly to disappear fro,'n the labourer's house.—Mr. Tuffners Report on the Economy of Lk Labouring Classes in Surrey and Kent. PRESBYTERY OF ARBROATH. During the two last weeks the Presbytery of Arbroath have had two several meetings. In the first of these, Mr. Lumsden, by way of reference, brought b e f ore the Presbytery a case from the Birk-Session o f B arry, of contumacy. The Kirk-Session had su mmoned before for the guilt of . Sabbath. parporfaivn: them a farm-servant, funeral o f his child on th - tier., because he had the before public worship. The individual . attended Zith'saYa. friend, but would not follow the Session into . house, and therefore was held by them . gtraty of con tumacy. The Presbytery enjoined the which judgment - Mr. Muir dissented, because the proceeding was unne cessarily harsh and irregular. Mr. Dymoek came also with a - eerbal reference con cerning a similar charge. Some of the elders were averse to give Church privileges to two persons—the one for pumping w a t er f or the railway engine on Sab bath, and the oth er f or assorting letters on that day. The Presbytery refused, to receive a verbal refer ence ; but some of the members hinted that he shoidd be cautious of meddling with people of influence. The Presbytery then proceeded to deal with Mr. Car ruthers, who gave in a wr.itten statement explaining some .of the facts libelled. 'We understand that great com plaints were made by some members that he did not make a full cor;ieSsion. After a long and senseless a Wei cat on, rwotions w ere ma d e b y M r. Lumsden, Mr. r, and * Mr. Crichto n — some o f wh i ch were very inowilliosiy departed from, on account of one Mr. Muir : —" That the case should be postponed to another day, whea+ Mr. Carruthers should be again called i n ." A t tlle second m eet i ng, M essrs. Laird and Lumsden com plained bitterly of the very unsatisfactory degree of con nlession made. Motions were then made by the Non-in trusionist, and carried ; from which the agent of the venerable clergyman appealed. it is not to be overlooked that in this case the more experienced ministers and elders, and the whole parish, without an exception, are on the side of the accused ; and that all the youthful Non-intrusionists are on that of severity. The grey hairs, the amiable, the honest, and pleas character of the accused, render him an object of regard to the whole country. He was never known to d) a mean action, to frequent improper company, or seek vitious indulgence. He was hospitable to the extent of his means, even to these whose means are now employed to molest hint. One of the severe members told him, in del6nice of the unlimited period of suspension, that he nen'i.l not consent to repone him till Mr. Carruthers' tni:-(/ was changed. What did this mean ? The agent ver , Properly told this member that he could judge only of the mind by the actions.

EWCASTLE.—POLITICAL PERSECUTION...—. We are informed that a leading Tory i this an ertensive h at manufacturer, is slily and gradually, town, but nevertheless decidedly dismissing such of his workmen as voted fur Mr. Harris at th late election. We hope this may not prove true :for e , if it be true, we shall assuredly devote ourselves to the unpleasant task of making several awkard exposures concerning the Afasonic individual re ferred to.—Stafford9hire .Erarniner. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. PROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. CHRONICLE.—The Times has at length undertaken to describe Toryism. It has done it con amore, and shown a per fect knowledge and feeling of the subject. In a leader of last Saturday it described in graphic language the ruin of Toryism, and states the causes of its " decline and fall." " Toryism fell," it says, " partly because it became tainted with those vices which inevitably accumulate during very long tenure of power by one description of men; partly because it allowed the principle of stability," now called Conservatism, "to swal low up all others in its esteem, degenerating sometimes into a despicable viz inertia, at other ~ times into an irrational superstition !" " Toryism," it goes on to say, " be came a mere hollow crust, and collapsed under the first thunderstorm which shook the political atmosphere." In the stead of the system thus denounced as " tainted with vices " as irrational " and " de spicable"—in the stead of this " hollow crust " of Toryism, the Times recommends the solid ground of Conservatism— that is, the same system under another name—nay, managed and conducted by the same leader I " Sir Robert Peel (it says), in watching over the formation and growth of this Par liamentary (Conservative) party, has performed his office well, and so as to entitle him to public gratitude." But is he not the same—the identical Sir Robert Peel who was the head and (in the House of Commons) the leader of that very party which the Times had just before denounced as "tainted with vices," " hollow," superstitious," and "irrational? Can the same fountain send forth sweet water and bitter ? Can we trust the man now who formerly advocated and upheld doctrines and principles which the Times itself admits were so pernicious, and which it deseribes as so abomina ble? But it is not the principles alone to which the censures of the Times are directed. It reprobates the men as much as it denounces the measures. " The leaders of the Tory party (it says) during the last ten years of its sway, fell into a false position, paying at once too much and too little regard to their own consistency" (that was, indeed, a false position !), " dealing plainly neither with themselves nor their supporters" (admirable moralists I). " Resisting upon questions of expediency when it was impossible to resist with prudence, and conceding upon questions of principle when it was impossible to concede with honour." Yet these are the leaders, men who could for ten years resist without prudence, and concede without honour; these are the leaders to whom the Times would now leave the direction of the State, and whom it lauds as distinguished by wisdom and foresight, and as fitted to be the savious of their country. What must Sir Ro bert Peel think and feel when his chief defenders describe the past political conduct of himself and of his colleagues in the fol lowing language:— "By their conduct with reference to Parliamentary Re form, they taught the country to think lightly of their ability to fortify by legimate means their tenure of office - while by their conduct on the Ro man C a th o li c ques ti on they proved themselves capable of committing a still more fatal mistake, and consenting (what is as objectionable in politics as in morals) • Propter vitam vivendi perdere causes.' " After this," it is added, " all confidence in the Govern ment which had so acted was destroyed. The Tory, party ceased to be identified with any principle whatever, either religious, or moral, or political, in the eyes of the people at lei ge." Such, as described by the Times, is the " tainted garbage of Toryism from which the Conservative party is to take its flight. Such is the party from which the forthcoming Adminis • tration is to be elected—a party identified, "in the eyes of the people at large, with no principle, either religious, or moral, or political." Such are the characters which, according to the Times, the new servants of the Queen are to bring with them from their last places! This, be it remem bered, is what their friends say of them ! It is what the lawyers call " their case." So much for the past. The course which Sir Robert Peel and his followers are to pursue in future is marked out by the Times with equal distinctness. They are called upon to avoid the errors of their predecessors —" the wholesale machinery of espionage by Commissioners, the establishment of a rural gendarmerie, and, above all, the enactment and operation of the new Poor-law"—which means if it mean anything, that Sir Robert Peel is to discharge the Archbishop of Canterbury and the other distinguished indi viduals who are acting as Commissioners under the Queen, to repeal Peel's Police Act, and not to continue in force the New Poor-law, which (whether they be called Tories or Conserva tives) he and his party have almost warmly supported. TIMES.—Sir Robert Peel is triumphantly borne into power upon the shoulders of an admiring country. He takes the reins with a clear majority of ninety at the least. Being thus placed in a condition which must capacitate him for carrying his measures irrespective of the demands of crochety indivi duals or sectional coteries, he can afford to resist whatever is unreasonable and to repulse whatever is mercenery. Be the private badgerings of individuals what they may (and we have as little to suppose that they will be peculiarly, active, as to anticipate that they will never be exercised at all), the power ful Conservative Minister, backed by an immense body of dis interested and independent supporters, who being immeasur ably above the condition of needy place-hunters, repose in him an implicit and gratuitous confidence, is consequently enabled to pursue a straight and inflexible course of political rectitude, how much soever he may be importuned or threat ened, for any sinister purpose. We know well that the great constitutional phalanx who will sit behind him will, almost to a man, abstain from embarrassing him with any selfish suppli ancy. But should it even prove otherwise, to a partial extent, the Right Hon. Baronet will allow himself to be dragooned in nothing from the mere apprehension of losing a few of his sup porters. If any such persons should ever approach him in a tone of miniatory, self-importance, we have at length a Govern ment who can dare to consult the public welfare in defiance of individual caprice or personal selfishness. But, what is better still, nothing of the kind, we can confidently predict, will ever occur. The very existence of such a large Ministerial majority as Sir Robert Peel's Cabinet will command, must be just as effectual for repressing impertinent demands, as for empowering the Government to resist them. HERALD.—AIarm appears to have been taken in some quarters at the negotiations which are said to be now going on between France and Belgium for a Customs' Union between the two kingdoms. This alarm is, to say the least of it, rather premature and unnecessary. The Journal des Debats has, it is true, lately opened its columns to the advocacy of some such project ; but others of the French papers distinctly deny that any proposition havin g such an object has been under the consideration of the French Cabinet. The facts of the case are, we believe, simply these :—The inhabitants of the French provinces of Alsace and Lorraine have lately importuned their Minister of Commerce to gain for them the aboli tion on the French frontiers bordering on Germany of the present customs' system, and to establish free inter course between Fra nee and Germany, as has lately been done between France and Holland; at the same time negotiations have been entered into for the purpose of establishing freedom of intercourse between France and Belgium, and thus to apply the principles of the late treaty of commerce with Holland to the entire northern frontier of France. But so far from these negotiations having for their object the desiori of a politico. commercial league between France and Belgium, it is a tact that Belgium, while negotiating for this freedom of trade with France, has proposed to Prussia either to join the German Commercial Union, or to enter into e n gagemen t s w ith that league similar to those which she may form with France. The common object of all these negotiations is to make the Rhin e , what it never yet h as b een , a free highway to all the countries on its banks or those of its tributary rivers. In such negotia tions there is, we submit, nothing tending to disturb the existing balance of European power, or to frighten Conserva tive statesmen. Whatever may once have been the wish of many of the Belgians, with respect to a union of their country with France, no such desire now exists. The mercantile and manufacturing classes in Belgium deplore, it is true, the present state of that kingdom ; but they look forward to another junction with Holland, and not to either a politico-commercial union with or an annexation to France. As to what King Leopold may be anxious about, it is of little matter ; le Roi des Postilions has about as much real power in Belgium as the great beggarman will shortly have in Ireland. En route to or in Paris, Wiesbaden, or Lon don, Leopold is an important personage ; at the Lacken, or in Brussels, he is—a king without power—a monarch withou% respect. While referring to this subject we may notice one effect of the late treaty of commerce and navigation vvi- . ; tch Lord Palmerston signed with Prussia on behalf of the r .serman Zoll Vorcin. Germany is already reaping the "dne-sided advan tages of that treaty, and German vessel, have lately, for the first time, left the port of Hamburgh',aden with German manu factures, bound for the British , colony of Barb a d oes . O t h ers are taking in similar gcnus for British North America. So that by this much vau:sted treaty Lord Palmerston has not only given a political . 7:atres to the Zoll Vorein, and great encou ragement to Germany becoming a naval power, but he has ac tually introduced her manufactures in the British colonial marktis, - without the intervention of British ships. POST --Amongst the deliberate lies put forth by the parts; of the beaten Ad m i n i strat i on this one , s conspicuous, ,so far as town constituencies are coneerned,the opinion in favour of the stupidites lately launched by Ministers on the sabject of sugar, core, and timber is an increasing opinion, Th e elec tions have plainly demonstrated that it is The opposite views maintained by Conservative never received such support in the towns since the Reform Bill was enacted as they have just now received. Nothing aan possibly be more marked than the decisive disapprobation of the Ministers by the towns since their last absurdities were promulgated, compared with that which appeared at former elections. The Conservatives have been returned by town constituencies in a considerably greater proportion than they were before, and where they did not suc ceed in being returned the number of votes in their favour was very much greater than before. It is, therefore, perfectly clear that, if the Whig-Radicals still have on their side a small ma jority of town Members, they represent a rapidly diminishing opinion.

What is to be done with the three expectant Chancellors, with only one Woolsack to offer them ? The Great Seal makes too great an impression on an ambitious mind to allow of an easy resignation of the prospect of posses sing it. The Tory Joint Stock Company turns out, like many others, to have been designed only for the profit of the immediate Directors, and the duty of answering calls seems all that is to devolve on the main body of ad venturers. When the clamour for a dividend meets, as it must, with no satisfactory reply, disappointment will lead to disgust, the bubble will have burst, andthe backing out will become general. The Post, which is by turns senti mental and severe—now sending forth paragraphs replete with pathos, and now thunderin g out impotent anathemas —has this morning gently and almoft affectingly reproved us, for throwing in the teeth of the Tories the unwelcome fact, that it,i s not a " b e d o f roses " they are about to lie upon., _With all our disposition to pity.the unfortunate, we cannot car r y our sympathy for Sir Robert Peel so far : as to in any way help him out of the mess which he has voluntarily placed himself. We respect a dignified and defeated foe ; but when we see an enemy doing all he can to ca se the ground to give way beneath our feet, and then marching deliberately into the mud he has him self thrown, we must be permitted to enjoy a little-merri ment at his sticking there, before we charitably come for ward to help him out of it. COURIER.—The Chronicle has a long and lugubrious article this morning in exaltation of the miraculous me rits of free trade principles, and their efficacity wherever and whenever hitherto applied, with the inferential intent of attributing the present depressed condition of various important branches of trade and manufactures to the sole prevalence of a too rigorously protective system. Our Contemporary draws liberally of course in support of his views upon the late Mr. Huskisson, for whose 'authority we ourselves profess to entertain no mean consideration, and to the quotation of whose senti ments, as we find them cited to suit the particular case, we are far from desiring to urge any objection. For example an isolated passage is given from his speeches, showing that, " there are occasions on which it is the dity of a vigilant Government to watch the signs of the times, and to accommodate their policy to those changes in the world, under the continued operation of which a blind adherence to our former system would no longer be either safe or expedient." It may, with equal truth, be said that it is the duty of a vigilant Government so to time and adapt such changes as may be found advisable in the fiscal and economical system, as that they shall work the least possible detriment, or none at all, to inte rests existing, long established, and created even, by the errors if you will, of former legislation. However humble in extent and importance may be the interest which contemplated changes may affect, it is entitled to a fair hearing, and may not be rashly dealt with and sacri ficed upon some special assumption of general benefit. A wise statesman will not be led astray with a false but flashy theory about the " greatest happiness of the greatest number," because the sacred obligation he contracts to wards the country at large, whose affairs he is called upon to administer, is impartially to study the good of every class and the prosperity of every interest alike, that is, the greatest happiness, not of a majority alone, but of the minority also—the good of all. Unquestion ably all such protections and prohibitions as are inopera tive to the end proposed should be mitigated or abolished. If they are burdensome to the consumer without adequate benefit to the home producer the case contemplated by Mr. Huskisson would have arrived, when speaking of " the removal of useless and inconvenient restrictions, the doing away of prohibitions, and the lowering of duties so excessive, as to be in fact, prohibitory on the productions of other countries—restrictions, prohibi tions, and duties, which, without benefit, na y hi g hl y in jurious to ourselves, have produced all the evil effects, and given rise in other parts of the world to the retalia tory efforts of foreign Governments to put down the commerce of the country." It remains to prove the special cases in point which the Chronicle, restricting it self within vague generalities, does not adventure upon, although we shall not affect ignorance of the particular, however indirect, bearingof its logic upon corn, sugar, and timber-laws. Waiving for the present however the reference to those importantsubjects, we shall content ourselves with indicating the exaggerating spirit in which he is disposed to regard the practical consequences of former modifica tions of our protective system. Without exactly de siring to impugn the motives of expediency, or of policy, which dictated the relaxation of our navigation laws, and the modification of the prohibitions against foreign silk manufactures, we may observe th a t th beneficial results of each have been grossly overrated. The immediate effect of the changes in the silk trade was, as is well known, the ruin of Macclesfield and Spitalfields—in the case of the latter irretrievable ruin. Doubtless that ruin might have been accomplished some years later by the active concurrence in the silk manufacture on which the, enterprising and intelligent capitalists and traders of Manchester had entered, with all the appliances of superior machinery, resources, and energy. But in the meantime, the Spitalfields . and Macclesfield people would have been " let down," to use a homely phrase, more gently and by degrees, so as with the difference of time to have gradually accommodated themselves to the revo lution in trade, so far as the change in its localities, which was in course of operation. The Manchester traders had been actively extending the silk manufacture in that town for several years before Mr. Huskisson's fiscal reforms were agitated or announced, and if their first steps were naturally slow and cautious, their progress was not the less sure. The railway locomotive does not start " at score " at once, but is gradually accelerated in speed after the steam power first painfully puts the train in motion, and then carries it along at an increasing rate until the maximum of velocity is attained for which the power is calculated. We do not entertain the least question ourselves but that the silk manufac ture would have been equally flourishing by this time in Manchester and its neighbourhood without, as with, Mr. Huskisson's measures, and there are few men who have any knowledge of the subject who will gainsay the opinion. The only real gain by any change yet operated in respect of the silk trade consists in the removal of those impediments, and that quasi prohibition, to the export of raw silk conceded of late years by the French Government. STANDARD.—The emeute at Toulouse appears to be at an end, and there is reason to think that the ac tual defiance of the law has been exaggerated, as hap pens universally in cases of this kind ; the cause of dis content—the deficiency of revenue, and the painful pressure upon the people—scarcely admit of ex agxeration. Nevertheless, France continues the for tification of her capital and the augmentation of her navy, no human being threatening to molest or in sult her—still prosecutes the wasteful and barren war in Africa. This, which can scarcely be called by any more respectful name than fatuity, is not to be laid to the charge of the King. He, a man of strong sense and benevolent dispositions, well knows that peace, con ducive to the happiness of all States, is indispensable to the existence of order in France, and he will preserve peace as long as he can. Neither are the mass of the people to 133 bla:ned—they are kindly and well-disposed. It is the eleventh plague—the swarm of empty and hungry litterateurs, creatures as ravenous as the beasts of the de sert, and endued with just " as much reason as Heaven gives an ape." It is this pestilent swarm of the ap propriation wants, the Roebucks, &c., of France, which disorders the country as they would disorder this coun try, if we had not men of sense and learning (classes too rare in France) to keep them in order. We cannot see our way to the end of it, but we can now easily enough forgive Napoleon's treatment of the ideologists as noxious vermin. MONEY MARKET and CITY N . l ;:yirg . FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF - .ERDA Y. , ; ESK TIMES.—Some uneasine ss was week among the Direct ors o f ' 'l.ansed in the middl e o f th e rni - London and Counti•y joint Dighton, the rnana..: Stock Bank by the abse.... r n front b us i ness of Ms ... , Thntuts Who disappeared under the Ilabst mys terious circums4, a, , and of who m to tl'te present ti me no trace see r :4 to have been found either by the Dire c t ors or hi s fu r fiy. When his absence was stAcovered, the Directors, it is -said, examined the books east, and securities of the Bank, and had the satisfaction to I t .nd that nothing whatever had been misappropriated. Thus the integrity of Mr. Dighton is by nu means affected by his absence, and all anxiety of the Directors is at an end, excepting that concerning the fate of the chief officer of their establishment. POST.—Something of a project for the capitalization of the dividend of the AetiVe Debt of Spain for the half year end ing November 1, 1837, or the first lapsed dividend under the Toreno arrangement of 1834, is said to have been submitted to the Cortes, anti we are appealed to upon the subject, the holders of the Trtr.Sury bonds given in lieu of the money for the said divide del being desirous of knowing whether • the new Minister of Finance has really such a scheme in contemplation or not. Without having any special information upon the subject, we should hope there must be some inaccuracy in the announce ment ; for, to suppose otherwise, would be to assume upon in adequate authority, that Seno. Surra y Bull is not only net the honest man he has been represented to be, and one who is well affected towards the people of this country, but further, it must be assumed also that his financial legislation will, at the very outset, be based upon the most unpardonable ignorance. According to the new synopsis which has appeared in the papers, M. Rull proposes to convert the Coupons in question, as repre sented by the Treasury Bonds, into a Three per Cent. Stock, with five per cent. interest to December, 1840. No w, after all the discussion that has taken place respecting this portion of the Spanish debt, it seems incredible that any man who enters upon the office of Finance Minister of Spain should be so consummate a blockhead as not to know that the conversion of the November dividend of 1836 has been literally effected and in the moat complete, the most binding form already ; that the bonds given for it are guaranteed by special decrees, with an interest of five per cent. per annum, and that those decrees have never been revoked. Don Carlos was at the gates of Madrid with the Treasury bonds—the promissory notes of the Queen, Cortes, and Mendizabel, and backed by the Ambassador in London, were issued by Mr. I. L. Golds mid. The language of the Minister was to the effect - that what ever might be th demands upon his Exchequer, good faith should be observed towards the holders of these temporary substitutes for hard cash. The payment was advertised with all the for mality that the English Minister advertises the payment of Exchequer Bills, first, on a given a day, when the price ad vanced to 65, while the ordinary debt was at no more th an 20, and next (for the word of the Embassy was braken), within a short delay. The " The " short ditty" has been a delay of nearly five years. In this disgraceful position the matter has been left ; and it remains to be seen whether an engagement of so pacific, so delicate a character—an engagement, moreover, requiring no more than some 10,000/. sterling per annum in interest is to be dissolved by a dash of the confiscatory pen of Senor Rull or any other Minister—whether the five per cent. obligation exigible in cash, surrounded by the most solemn guarantees that three languages can express, is to be extracted from the han'ts of the holder, and a worthless three, or two, or one per cent., bond given in its s t ea d.

COURT OF CHANCERY, July 26. HARMAN AND OTHERS V. JONES AND OTHERS. This case came before the Court upon motion, for the discharge of an order made by the Vice-Chancellor, granting an injunction restraining the defendants, who are the Commissioners of Sewers for the metropolitan districts, from issuing a precept for summoning a Jury to assess the value of certain land between Bartholomew lane and Threadneedle-street, on part of which it is in tended to build the new premises for the Sun Fire-office. The arguments were not concluded when the Court rose. ROLLS' COURT, July 26. The Court was again occupied the whole day in hearing the arguments in the case of the Corporation of Arundel r. Holmes. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, July 25. ELDERTON V. PETERS. The arguments in this part-heard case were resumed, and concluded to-day. The only question in the case was, whether a gentleman named Bebb should pay the costs of a suit instituted by him in the name of a person called Julian Peters, that individual having no existence in fact. His Honour the VICE-CHANCELLOR, at the close of the arguments, gave judgment, directing that Mr. Bebb should not pay the costs of the suit, the Court acquitting him of all blame, believing that the suit •vas instituted by him in consequence of misrepresentations. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, July 26. BAIL CASES. Three town and seven country bail cases were on the list, in the trial of which no feat Ires of public interest appeared. IN RE GEORGE CONWAY MONTAGUE, ESQ. Mr. Woodroffe opposed the discharge of the insolvent on the part of Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Budd. It appeared that his liabilities amounted to upwards of 23,000/., and, although possessed of large property, the assets available to his creditors were unequal to pay even a penny in the pound. In the year 1827 he was first arrested, and re mained in prison until the present time, this being his first application to be discharged. He was subjected to a long examination, in which he stated that he had lost considerable sums of money " at play" with various per sons--to one person named Russell, who was a fellow prisoner with him in the Queen's Bench, he lost upwards of 1,0001. He also stated that he had received consider able sums of money from a person named Flight, and had by means of wine warrants, taken in consideration of acceptances, raised upwards of 6,0001. The insolvent supported his application in person. Mr. WOODROFFE, in aggravation of the duration of re mand, suggested to the Court that this was one of those cases calling most strongly for its reprobation. The in solvent had property, but chose to remain in prison, and thus defraud his creditors, to the injury not only of their interest but likewise of his own. 'When he first went to prison his. property was such that he could have easily met his liabilities with more than 40s. in the pound ; and, under all the circumstances of the case, he trusted that the Court, by its decision, would mark its reprobation of the insolvent's conduct. The Learned COMMISSIONER said he was sorry to be compelled to remand a person of the insolvent's ex treme age—[he seemed upwards of 70 years of age]— for a period so much longer than what was usual with the ordinary run of cases occurring in the Court, but he felt that a sense of public justice demanded it. Since the first time he occupied the Commissioner's seat, so flagrant a case as that now before him had never come under h.s cognizance ; and, notwithstanding the length of time which the insolvent had been previously confined, he felt himself bound to order a further term of imprisonment for two years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MA NSIO N- HOUSE. TIIE ALLEGED ORIGINAL PROJECTOR OF THE RAIL ROAD SYSTEM IN ENGLAND.—Mr. Hobler, junior, who was accompanied by Mr Rangeley, the engineer, Mr. James, and sever a l o th er gentlemen, stated to the Lord Mayor that he appeared before his Lordship on the part of the family of the late Mr. James, of Bodmin, land agent and civil engineer, to whose ex= ertions as the original projector and surveyor of the Manchester and Liverpool, Central Union, Lon don and Brighton, and many other railroads, the public were principally indebted for the establishment of the present system a railroad conveyance b this and other countries. The late Mr. James (several years having intervened before the Bills passed both Houses of Parliament, for the three first‘mentioned railroads), pro ceeded with the surveys of many of the principal lines now in existence, on some of which he published. hie re ports. He was enthusiastic in the cause of this grand scheme of national communication by locomotive engines, and in its early stages was the mainstay and agitator of the system, under the painful opposition and prejudices then existing in the public mind; and his ample fortune ; together with the settlements made on his mitts. and daughters, were severally given up, and expended in public improvements, in patents, experiments, and sur veys for the promotion or the great work, whereby his family had been left without patrimony. his claims had long since been acknowledged, but he did not think of remuneration, as the importance of the railway System was but imperfectly understood, Now, however, that it was universally adopted and appreciated, it was sub mitted that these thiims should be acknowledged by a liberal testimonial to his family. In consequence of the report that the friends of Mr. James's family were deter mined to exert themselves on the occasion, some indi viduals were going round the country with applications for contributions for a national testimonial, and had already obtained a considerable sum of money witheut the sanction of the family, who considered that on such an occasion the best course they could pursue was to represent the circumstances to the Lord Mayor, and to request his aid in preventing the continuance of such a scheme of raising money. The LORD MAYott said he Witt Convinced the most effectual mode of prevention would be by publication of the circumstance as extensively as possible. Mr. Hobler, jun., said that the conduct of those who were receiving the money under false pretences, might be considered a sort of nominal Imposition, Mr. Rangeley said the high merits and claims of the late Mr. James were well known to the scientific men of this country ; and that it would be desirable if those who had subAnribed would publish the names of the parties to whom they had handed th e i r con t r ibu t i ons , or - - and them in to the Committee about to be organized for carrying the views of the friends of the family of the late railroad projector into effect. The gentlemen then thanked the Lord Mayor and re tired. Cittkitirt TO ANIMALs.—The Lord Mayor stated that he had received a letter on the subject of the treatment of animals in Smithfield, deserving, in his opinion, the immediate consideration of those who had the manage ment of business in that market. He thought as the new regulations of Smithfield were under the considera tion of the Common Council at the present time, the subject could not be more appropriately introduced. The letter was as follows " My Lord,—Myself, in conjunction with a very nu merous circle of female acquaintances, do most earnestly implore you to use the very great interest and power you possess in behalf of the poor suffering beasts taken to Smithfield Market, and where I am creditably in formed they are kept from twelve to eighteen hours without one drop of water to moisten their parched throats ; nor even in going to and fro do their merciless drovers allow them to drink a few drops of kennel water, but goad them on their way, their tri fling wants unheeded. Surely, my Lord, yon have, on some occasions, felt that most dreadful torture aris ing from intense thirst. Consider, then, what must be the agony those poor innocent and helpless beasts en dure ; and not only the cruelty, but the exceeding mis chief that result from it, the poor bullock frequently be coming infuriated, and the sheep falling down, as if dead, from utter exhaustion ' • both of which, in most in stances, might be avoid e d by a supply of water in the market. It seems the superintendant of the market says it is quite unnecessary. Probably this gentleman has never felt the effect of scorching fever, and certainly not from too much humanity to the brute creation, other wise this crying evil would have been remedied jears since. He may, perhaps, object on the score of expense, but this might easily be rectified by the very simple method of buyer and seller each paying one halfpenny or, at the most, one penny per head, on all cattle taken to the market. Allow me, my Lord, to hope that yon have as much inclination as power, and that ydtt exert both in advancing this most essential object ; and by the doing of which your name rust foe O'er stand high on the records of mercy and humanity. In the fervent prayer that you will patiently consider the im portant subject of our petition, we beg to subscribe our selves your Lordship's most obedient SerViintsk' " The remark as to the payment by the buyer and seller was judiciously mentioned in a most humane paragraph, addressed t o t h e e di tor of the Morning Ilercild it few days back, and which I have very great reftson to sus pect was written by one of the most able statesmen and years its o philanthropists of th e present day," This letter, which wa s in a f ema l e ' s ha n d- wr iting, expresses feelingly wh a t- h as ben wr itt e n to e v e r y ensout suggestion s the of rr at Lord May or IN ho has sat in th .t chair for the last t en thte. be s h oped subj ect his Lordship's correspondent will be attended to in the least,ftr is d ha that a bteethn noticed next Court of Common Council, when the hew roles art: to be brought forward, ~,d fi,„,,,. ilia v r newels .lioofc ) t Ant U 74 tth . ontaso.rs f,elpers in the employ of Messrs.

P. D. Latouche, and Thomas Porisonby) in two hundred and fifty pounds ea-h. Mr. Morgan M'Sweeney, the other principal, has not been as yet arrested, and the quarrel, as our readers are already aware of, arose out of a dispute which occurred during the recent Kerry election. _ We understand that the parties were to have met in mortal comb it somewhere in the neighbourhood of Kingstown last evening, but for the timely intervention of that active and in telligent officer, Mr. Irwin, who arrested the gallant captain. IMPORTANT TRIAL AT PER- PIGNAN. The trial of Picola, the contrabandist, and Rose, his wife, for breach of trust and robbery, by the non-deli very of 5t1,006f., which Cabrera, the Spanish Carlist Ge neral, entrusted to them, to be conveyed into France, and delivered to his sisters, Mme, Polo and Mme. Arnaud, came on before the Correctional Tribunal of Perpignan, on the Bth instant, in pursuance of an adjournment from May last, as our readers will recollect, in consequence of the non-appearance of Cabrera and several members of the Carlist Junta of Berga4 who had been. summoned as witnesses in behalf of the prisoners. Picola is about forty years of age born in French Cerdagna, b u t o f Spanish parentage.lris countenance expressed all the animation and acuteness of the mountainerl his language was good, and at times forcible, Rose, his wife, whose maiden name was Terriitles, was born in France, of French pa rants, and was married to Picola twenty years ago. She has been Very handsenie, btit her beatifies are faded from time and care. - The Court was crowded, as in May, in expectation of seeing Cabrera and the members of the Junta, but neither of them appeared. The agitated state of Catalonia had deterred the Government from granting him and the other notable Carlists permission to etinie t t Mit the frontier. The trial occupied the Bth, Oth, and 10th, and, at its close, the Judges took time till the 15th to deliberate upon their judgment. Several facts, previously unknown to the public, were elicited. The money entrusted by Cabrera to Picola, and by him transferred to his wife, to carry with the ladies into France, amounted to 150,000 f,, in three bags, two contain ing 20,000 t each, and the third 10,000 f. in gold. There were also confided to Picola several chests of plate, some trunks, and other baggage, containing clothes and papers, which it appears he *retained in Spain, promising to con vey them at a, future day to Buurges, whither the ladies were bound. The p a rti es w e r e escor t e d to t h e F renc h frontier by Carlist troops ; and this becoming known to tiie atitheritieet lit Cissept, On their arrival the travellers Were taken before the Commissary of Police, where it was found, on search, that they then had in their pos session all the money abovementioned. From Osseja the ladies were Sent into the interior, leaving the money hi the hands of Bose Picola, lest it should be taken from them, From the evidence given in Court, this money had been left by Cabrera's mother to her daughters, As to the plate it had belonged to Queen Christina, and was captured by Cabrera while on its way to France under an escort. Picola had brought it into this country, where it wits seised, but the Government had ordered it to be given up to Cabrera, who has, it is said, presented it to Don Carlos, to whom it will ultimately be sent, that Prince having accepted the offer. Disputes arose at Court as to the quantity of the plate. Picola, in his examitation, admitted no more than twelve dozen covers ; but the witnesses for the prosecution affirmed that there were forty, or at the least thirty dozen. A chest was pro duced, and was found to have compartments for only seventy-two forks and table-spoons, twelve tea-spoons, and two dessert-spoons. Picola asserted that large sums were due to him from the army, and that he had a lien upon the property in question for the amount, This was contradicted by a person who had been a clerk in the employ of the Junta of Burga, and who declared that all Picola's demands had been settled and paid. On the other aide, two gendarmes deposed that General Cabrera, when under their keeping at Cabanese, near Montlouis, complained of his having been robbed by Picola of 50,000 f., but at the same time admitted that he owed Picola, between 10,000 f. and 12,000 f. for sup plies. It was lastly proved, on the yart of the prosecu tion, that Picola, since his return in France,. had paid debts to the amount of between o,ooof, and 7,000 f., and had alio entered into eoninierend speculations to a con siderable extent. The judgment of the Tribunal pro nounced Picola guilty of breach of confidence, in con verting to his own use 10,000 f. intrusted to him by Cabrera, at nerga, and also in not delivering the chest of plate l also declared his wife guilty of the same offence with regard to the 50,000 E intrusted to her, condemned them both to two years' imprisonment and a fine of 25f., to pay 50,000 f. to Cabrera, and 2,500 f. as the value of the late which had been abstracted from the ch es t, an d to Polo y Mums 6cif,, the value of a cloak which belonged to him, and was in ono of the trunks ; ordered them jointly to pay all the costs of the proseentin, and limited the period of their imprisonment, in case ofnoniiiyinent of the above sums, to ten years.

In our last we referred to the continued depressed state of trade in this quarter, and in this publication e regret to state, the pi-aspects are not ()air great deal worse, but they are really without parallel in the history of this. enterprising manufacturing community. About two weeks ago, several - of our manufacturers met with serious losses by the bankruptcy of some Glasgow and Manchester houses ; last week, and on the early part of this ! some heavy failures followed in town, but the parties having for the most part been young men of short standing in trade, comparatively little weight was attached to the circumstance except oy those wno were ianneut ately connected. By the middle of the week, however our commercial affairs assumed it more serious aspect, in consequence (if report speaks truly) of the paper of one of the most extensive shawl merchants in the country having been refused by the banks, and that too, as wk are informed, while the house in question was under stood to be more than solvent, and had up to that hour possessed the most unbounded credit. The immediate effect of this unlooked for occurrence has been the stop page of houses of long standing, and the indispensable suspension of payments by a number of others. Amongst the houses which stopped this • week or suspended pay ments, we regret to number some of the most exten sive, ingenious, and enterprising in the trade ; and whatever may be the ultimate issue, the immediate effect must be a great accession to the number of the unem ployed work people. We are quite certain of being within the mark, when' we state that the discharge of from one to two thousand people of one description and another, must be the consequence ere another week passes over. The trade of Paisley has been in a languishing and unhealthy state ever since the embarrassments caused by thef American stoppages in 1837. At that time, and at various periods •since, an extensive and wholesome trade could have been carried on with the United States, had our traders been but permitted to take corn or flour in exchange for the productions of our looms.. This the cruel laws which we live has denied them, and the con sequent, the indisputable result, therefore, is, a sweeping, ruinous bankruptcy, the rendering of people of wealth pennyless, and the idleset and starvation of the working population in thousands at a time.—Glasgow Post.

JAMES HATFIELD AND T}l BEAUTY OF BITIVIIRMERE.—This extraordinary iale of real life pro mises to excite as great an interest as has been produced by "Eugene Aram," " Jack Sheppard," or any other work of the same class. The Naral and Military Ca zcthe observes, "'Phis work will atibrd unusual gra,tifiec , tioU the particular class of readers to which it ad dresses itgelt, on acccunt of the singular nature of the story, the truth t'f tho leading events related in it, and the number of real rharacters (some of th em li v i ng ), who ere incidentally introduced into the narrative. The story is , founded on that e traordinary and well-known passage In tilt:W4 el the celebra ~"d 'gentleman' swindler, James Hatfield, hie ititafriage with tio no less celebrated `Beauty of Buttermere ; 1 aildl the scene is laid, for the most part, in those beautiful looltilex which have been made classical by the residence and thormitings of tome of our greatest poets—Wordsworth, Southey, and , Cole- ridge, The bold attempt, too, of the writer, to embody in his narrative, and even connect with his singularly assorted hero and heroine, those three distinguished men in their private and personal characters, will, no doubt, greatly add to the curiosity excited by this work." MANUFACTURES AND AGRICULTURE— PAUPERISING PROPERTIES COMPARED.—The piece of information, extracted from the Inquiry into the Condition of the Hand-loom Weavers, is im pettant at this time, when the value of the manufacturing intelT.9.l is being run down by the Tory press :—" The most pauperiated counties of England are not the mann faucturiagricultural counties ; and it is re ..; -7 rnArkable' but ttu that, our besi, corn lands are more pauperised tilail Kt tilt district. In the corn-growing coun ..Esse;:c, Suffolk, Norfolk, ties tit BeAt i tta," iitkUitt_gham, the year ending head.

Lancashire, moreover, supports a population of 1,336,854 persons, equal to the combined population of the whole of the six counties named." And yet in the face of all this, the fools and knaves of Toryism would have the people believe that a free trade with foreign nations, by which manufactures in England would be encouraged, by which wages, from the greater demand for labour, would be increased, and pauperism, as shown above, diminislied—tbey would make the world believe if they could, that such a free trade would be the greatest curse that could befal the country.—Gateshead Observer.
