PEEL means, we believe, to drill society, if he be allowed, into Toryism. By the help of schools and priests he will model the national mind according to the aristocratic scheme of what is good for mr.nkind. We shall watch the Tory proceedings, but our present impression is that the design and intention of Sir R. PEEL is to try and fashion society into a form agreeable to the Tories, and keep it in that form. Hunger he probably thinks may tame JOHN Bum. as well as a lion, and, by means of the hunger to which the Legislature dooms the people, he hopes to subdue all refractory spirits and csta-.

It is not very easy to say anything new on the Corn-laws, yet Mr. TnORNELY, in his excellent, speech on Monday evening, did state two nev, arguments against the sliding scale. First, lie showed tilat it virtually abrogated our commer cial treaty with America. With that republic we have a treaty which pledges us to place them 611 the same footing as the most favoured nation. Of course, therefore, our corn market should be open to the merchants of New York, on the same terms as those of Hamburg - h. But tln: effect of the sliding scale, and the mode of work ing the average, is to exclude the - United- Stales from our corn market, and place it in the hands of the Russians and the Prussians. While we may be inundated with wheat from Rostock or Slett.M. or St. Petersburgh, not a grain can come in from New York. it is impracticable to enter cargoes from such a distance, though ordered in anticipation of a rise in prices, with the chance of their arrivin;: here when the duty on wheat may be '23s. the Hence the sliding or jumping scale is an injustice to the United States, and abrogates our commercial treaty with that country. Secondly, Mr. THORNELY remarked that the sliding scale, contrary to all the principles of political science, impose's the heaviest duty on the lowest priced article. By the last week's returns the average weekly price of a quarter of wheat is 71s. 2c1., and the duty is is., while the average weekly price of a quarter of oats is 235. 6d., and the duty is 245. Thus the lowest priced commodity is subjected to the highest duty, and the highest priced the lowest. The same remark may be extended to wheat itself. The duty diminishes as the price rises, while on mast commodities the duty is proportionable to their value. All ad valorem duties are levied on this principle. The Corn-laws, therefore, equally violate the principles of political science and of political honesty. Mr. TRORNELY put these and several other points very neatly and forcibly, iiOYAL SURREY THEATRE. 1 'UNDER TAE MANAGEMENT OF MR. DAVIDGE AND Mil. WILLIS TONES.

Sir ROBERT PEEL has told us, " that all the Le,jslature could hope to do is to lay the foun dation for improvements which would make a gradual .melioration in the state of society.'' The Morning Post is the Journal most fa voured with Sir ROBERT PEEL'S confidence. It speaks his sentiments, tells beforehand what he i s going to do, and is the organ of his opinions. Whatet'er falls from it, therefore, concerning c: the foundation for improvements which may riir k e a gradual amelioration in society" is Worthy of public attention.

With tir,lt, however, we have at present no I,ils;pecc,. - we h a ve more to do with our Con- J‘dulporary's runla rKs : 1, " We really believe," says our Contemporary, " that t is to say, under the blessing of - t p - r e o v i i im de e n c h e a , s come—that 3 of the public mind has arisen— Theo very great advances may so rt a of Church superinten v be made towards giving Ito the people of England .h Kience which hitherto they have not had, and of which they stand so greatly- in need.

We infer .2,OELP, Lord STANLEY " spoke for an hour and twenty-two minutes," says the Manchester Guardian, at his nomination on Tuesday last. His speech was little more, however, than a re petition of his speech at the general election. He professes, in addition, a great admiration of Sir R. PEEL, whose arguments, as well as whose manners, he seems to have adopted. He is like the Baronet, a stout defender of the present Corn-law, in which he acknowledges no imper fection; and, like the Baronet, he ascribes the distress of the manufacturers to their petit acti vity and wonclerous skill, contrary to the philo sophy of TURGOT, SMITH, and SAY. His Lord ship concludes that the vast capability of produc tion in this great commercial country will for ever cause periodical fluctuations -- a most hopeless and cheerless doctrine, which implies that the more we advance in knowledge, skill, and power, the more we shall be exposed to such disasters as now overwhelm us. Fortunately for mankind, Lord STANLEY'S reasoning is no more conclusive, and no better founded, than that of Sir ROBERT PEEL ; and, great masters as they both are of words, they never will convince the public that production leads to distress, that the use of machinery curtails wealth, and that com merce, of which the principle is to spread all the productions of mankind equally over all, leads to fluctuations. Lord STANLEY met, in Mr. JouN BROOKES, from Manchester, with a stubborn questioner, who ex torted from the Noble Lord an admission that the Corn-laws increased rent; but the Noble Lord en deavoured most painfully to shuffle out of the con clusion that the increase of rent was at the expense of the people. His Lordship had so much of Mr. BROOKES that he appealed to the Sheriff whe ther there should not "be some limit to the questions." His Lordship managed, by the aid of his friends, to silence Mr. BROOKES, if he could not answer him. His Lordship was elected without further trouble or opposition. At his late election for Dorchester, Sir JAMES GRAHAM gave an account of the changes in opinion which have taken place in some of our leading statesmen on the su Oject of the Corn-laws, which is, we think, remarkable as an index to the general change which is in progress, and which will, by and by, reach even those who are now the most urgent sticklers for those enactments which starve the people. Sir JAMES GRAHAM " If my opinions have undergone a modification—and I admit that they have, in consequence of my increased experience and the altered condition of the country—l have changed in very excellent company. I changed my opinion on the Corn-laws with Mr. Huskisson, who brought forward a measure in 1815 which prohibited the introduction of foreign corn if the price should be less than 80s., and when he supported in 1827 a sliding scale, I advocated thd same views, and I can say that nothing which has occurred since has induced me to change my opinion. There was Sir 11. Parnell, another free-trader, the very pink of free - trade philosophers. That gentleman advanced a step further than Mr. Bus kisson, and proposed that no foreign corn should be ad mitted until it had reached the price of 955. per quarter. Then, again, have Lord J. Russell and Lord Melbourne been quite consistent in their opinions on the subject of the Corn-laws? What did Lord Melbourne say in the House of Lords when the proposal to alter the Corn-laws was mooted in that House? He declared that it would be an evidence of absolute madness in any one to make such a proposition. On the same subject Lord Melbourne again said that the agitation of so great and important a question would shake society to its very foundation, would array one great interest against another, and that he looked forward to the consequences with considerable alarm. These opinions were, however, expressed before the Budget was brought forward. Lord J. Russell, also, in an address to the electors of Huntingdonshire, expressed very strong and unequivocal opinions in favour of the present Corn-laws, and against any alteration." Here, then, is a list of five leading statesmen —Sir 3 AIqE.S GRAHAM, Mr. HUSKISSON, Sir H. PARNELL, Lord MELBOURNE, and Lord JOHN RUSSELL—who have, within a few years, be come converts from absolute prohibition to pro tective duties, or to no duties at all. There are few or no persons of eminence who have gone the other way. Lord ASHBURTON being, we be lieve, the solitary exception ; and his change was so clearly dictated by mercenary motives that, from having been an authority, the man has be come pitiably despised. Lord MELBOURNE and Lord JOHN RUSSELL, from having been out-and-out Pro-Corn-law men, have become converts, at least to a low fixed duty, if they are not ready to embrace the prin ciple of a totally free trade in food. Sir HENRY PARNELL, who is a studious, reflective man, , c th e very pink of free trade philosophers," as Sir • - • •• :r r S Sari, 10 now a total repealiT, whereas, in 1811, he was for a prohibitory duty up to 9,55. But Mr. HUSKISSON 7 S change, who s poken of by the Tories is yet most improperly as favourable to the Corn-laws, and was so de scribed by Lord SINDON on Friday night last, is still more remarkable. In 1814, when he wrote his celebrated letter to his constituents at Chi chester, he was for a prohibitory duty to a cer tam point, and Lien rut admitting corn on pad'- ment of a high duty by a graduated scale. - In 1324-28 he was for a graduated scale, much lower than he contemplated in 1314, without any THE s• N, LONDON, THURSDAY, &Et/TEA/113En :2:3 1,441. prohibition ; and, in 1830, he had become of !

AS - garaMENTII: I7,II % Amongst the petitions last night presented in the House of Commons, was one from Sir Charles Forbes, for inquiry into the case of the Raja of Sattara. The' Concentration of Royal Gardens and the Frog more Lodge Bills were read a second time,-after a brief opposition to the former by Mr. Protheroe. The Poor-law Commission Bill, and the Expirhlg Laws Bill were also read a second time. During the short (khate on the former Mr. \V akley again stepped forth in his new character of Sir h. Peel's champion, who seems, how,ver, not much to like his over zealous Squire. The Bills arc to be . committed on Friday, seems as it' Sir Robert Peel was intent on bringing the Session to a close. It can scarcely last ten days at the present rate of proattlinz The House adjo.lraed till Friday. The General Bill to continue such laws as may expire within a limited period, enacts " that all the laws now in force, and which ‘vould expire at the end of the Session of Parliament, or on or before the Ist day of January, 1842, shall be and continue in full force to all intents and purposes until the 31st day of July, 1842." PUZIAC ok.razOls". The Morning Post contains an article, whose evident, through not avowed, object, is to exalt the Tory system of legislation by underrating that of the Whigs :—" It was always the plan of the Whigs," says our' Contempo rary,." to flatter the people with hope that they could set right whatever was wrong in the condition of the pople. But they never succeeded. As soon as one project failed they set up another, but it was only to produce fresh dis appointment. And thus it happened that the W digs, Who began their projects with a revolution in their favour, and an immense majority in the House of Commons, gradu ally lost that majority, and all public confidence. They promised to the people remedies for their real or fancied evils, but the people found no benefit from them." — The people have certainly found no benefit from Whig remedies, but it is because those remedies have not been tried. That great experiment, in particular, of dis epeUmbering trade of the shackles that most heavily oppress it, was never even allowed to be brought for ward. The Tories were apprehensive it would succeed, so crushed it on the threshold. And what, pray, tire the remedies these men propose, in lieu of those they condemned ? The answer may be summed up in a MORE TORY PRAISE OF Ma. WAKLEY.—" Some there may be who, like Mr. Wakley, will surmount the despi cable trammels of partisanship, and dare to avow the honest truth, even though it should be complimentary to opponents. Indeed Mr. Wakley's manly and upright acknowledgments, respresenting as he does a large. Lib eral constituency, who may be less prepared to do that strict justice to Sir Robert Peel's Ministry which their Hon. Member's conscientious convictions extort from him, are deserving of all praise. Not that we imagine Mr. Wakley to have deserts d his principles, or to have become a Tory— no such thing—but that, freeing him self from mean party prejudices, he has nobly borne his testimony to the fairness and integrity of those to whom on many points he is still conscientiously opposed. Anything of this sort from the Whigs anti Repealers is of course hopeless ; but, sooner or later, Mr. WakLy's honesty will be extensively imitated notwithstanding."— Times. That praise was bestowed yesterday for Mr. Waltley's exertions of previous nights. Last night the Hon. Member regularly avowed himself Sir It. Peel's champion. To day, of course, more praise will follow. Did the electors of Finsbury send Mr. Wakley to Par liament to smooth the way for Sir R. Peel ? The Hon. Member seems to suppose, because the notion has lost all confidence in the Whigs, and has been obliged to give them up, that we have no alternative but submission to the Tories. The public will hardly adopt that opinion, and are rather resolved, we apprehend, to submit to nei ther, but to make the Tories submit to them. Mr. Wakley wishes us to submit to the Tories. our own. Mr. HUSKISSON, very unlike the Tories who now quote his letter of 1814, to bolster up errors which he had discarded, was a steady friend to foreign trade, and expressly stated that our in dustrious millions, whom he cherished, would perish if our foreign trade decayed. ' He was, in 1830, afraid that our foreign trade would decay, and that England would be exposed to great miseries if the Corn-laws were continued. What he then foresaw has been, in a great measure, realised, The high prices kept up have fallen on the wages of labour and on the profit of the employers, and have reduced both, according to concurrent testimony from all the manufactur ing districts, to great distress. On a subsequent occasion, namely, March 25, 1830, when Mr. P. THOMSON, now Lord SYDENHAM, brought for ward a motion to equalise taxation, Mr. HUSKJS SON reiterated his opinions on the Corn-laws. He said : LLOYD'S SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.) DEAL, SEPT. 22.—Windt S.W.,moderate.—Arrived the Caesar, from Demerara ; Corcyra, Hand, Africa ; Caroline, Terceira.

It was his unalterable conviction that we could not uphold the Corn-laws now' in existence, toge ther with the present system of taxation, and at the same time increase the national prosperity and preserve public contentment. That those laws might be repealed without affecting the landed interest, whilst at the same time the dis tr•ess op the people might be relieved, he never had any doubt whatever. A general feeling prevailed that some change must be effected, and that speedily; nor were there any individuals more thoughly persuaded of it than those who moved in the humbler walks of life. Immediately subsequent to that period, how ever, political excitement and political hope made people think less of their distress; then followed till 1836 a succession of abundant harvests ; they were combined with succes sive reductions of taxation, and the coining into operation of numerous railroads, which enabled the country to go without repeal ing the Corn-laws, and even without much com plaining of them, till 1838. Then ensued defi cient harvests; then further reductions of taxa tion became impracticable ; and then was realised Mr. HUSKISSON'S prediction—though taxation had, in the meantime, been reduced— that we could not uphold the, Corn-laws toge ther with the present system of taxation. Thus Mr. HUSKISSON, from being a strong advocate of the Corn-laws, became a strenuous advocate for the repeal of those laws, and, as we have seen, actually denounced them, as not to be maintained, and as the cause of the impoverish ment of the people. Such great and consecu tive changes in his opinions, the result of much experience, combined with the changes mentioned in the opinions of other statesmen, not willingly adopted, but forced on them by circumstances, 'seem to us a clear indication of the course of opinion. It is hostile to the continuance of Corn laws, and they can only be continued by un ceasing violence. If' by that they are to be maintained, the rent-owne►•s may rest assured that violence will beget violence, and from their injustice a system of disorder and misrule will overspread the land.

Guizot, are about to receive from the King of Prusdia the Order of the sentence—none at all ! The Chronicle is of opinion that Ireland will continue to be a thorn in Sir Robert Peel's side, notwithstanding his attempts at conciliation, and adds :—" Sir R. Peel may depend upon it the day of reckoning with his Irish supporters will not pass of so quietly as he thinks. For the services they rendered they must be requited. It will not do to tell them thatmeasures like theßill of Lord Stanley were taken up merely as convenient positions from which to assail their opponents, and which were to be abandoned the moment the fortress was - carried. They naturally ask themselves What have we gained by this triumph ? Where are the spoilsebe hope of which sus , tained us through so long a conflict ?' W here, . indeed ! You have got Lord Eliot for your Secretary, with an as surance that his policy is to be a policy of conciliation ; you are debarred all hope of stopping the supplies to IV ay nooth College (a cheering indication this to the mitre bunting MiGhees and O'Sullivans) ; and lastly, as yet, the Registration Bill of Lord Stanley is put in abeyance.' How much more do the Irish Protestants require before they find out' Sir Robert Peel ?" The hour is fast approaching when the Irish Orange men.will discover that the Tory Premier is no more to be trusted by them, than he was, when—in defiance of all the repeated, solemn pledges he had made them to the contrary—he turned round, and carried Catholic Emancipation. He will deceive them, as he • did then ; but he will not throw them overboard at once ; no, he is far too cunning for that ; he will just keep up the farce of acting with them, till he fancies himself strong enough to do without them ; and then send them adrift, to sink or swim, as may happen. We warn the Orangemen to keep a wary eye on Sir Robert Peel. He will sacrifice them, as he did poor Canning. We have no great respect fur these red-hot Irish Tories ; but in vigour and honesty we think them immeasurably supe rior to the trimming quacks who now hold power under the sneaking alias of tjonstrvatives. The Times is delighted with Lord Stanley's speech on the occasion of his re-election for North Lancashire, observing—" In all respects it is a fitting accompani ment to that of his fellow-secretary at Dorchester—nay, without invidiously subjecting the ability of the two ac dresses to a comparison from which, indeed, neither tf them need shrink, and while perfectly admitting the equal merits of both in their distinctive scope, we feel warranted in saying that, owing to a curious accidental circumstance, Lord Stanley possesses a somewhat superior interest, not very dissimilar to that which attached to Scott's memorable disclosure when he avowed himself ' the au thor of Waverley !' As the great Northern writer hail for many years been the object of endless surmises and suspicions, which he had taken no pains either to encou rage or to allay, so it is well known that the noble heir of the house of Derby, having been supposed to have incurred the guilt of political apostacy, has for a con siderable period been assailed with every epithet of party rancour, which, strong in the consciousness of his own rectitude, he has treated with silent contempt." —To say that Lcrd Stanley's speech was a "fitting ac companiment" to that of Sir James Graham's at Dor chester, is a very left-handed compliment, wearing the aspect of irony ; for never was there a more vague, dri velling, spiteful tirade, than that perpetrated by the heavy-headed Netherhy Baronet—the rejected of Cum berland, of Pembroke, of Westminster, and of divers other towns, counties, and cities, which we have neither space nor time to enumerate. Nevertheless, we agree with the Times that the North Lancashire affair was quite as good as the Dorchester affair ; and both were just what might have been expected—spiteful twaddle ! The Hera/I thus expresses itself on the subject of the new Poor-law :—" There was in the House last night a most satisfactory and wholesome expression of opinion as to the cruelties and severities of the English Poor law ; a hope was very generally expressed that Sir R. Peel would make great alterations in the more strin gent provisions of that law, and in this hope great majority of the public most warmly concur. It is indeed quite impossible that the Poor-law can remain in its present form; and it would be most unwise to continue the superintendence of any law that may be substituted fir it in the hands of the present Poor-law Commissioners, or their secretary, who never can,or will enjoy the confidence of the English people. The Poor law is a subject which cannot be shirked or got rid of by palliative amendments ' less than thorough will not do it.' It is the duty of the Conservative press to speak out boldly on this subject ; any suppression of opinion is treachery to the great national party Of which it is the organ," The Advertiser thidteB the followinvemarks on Sir n. rcor6 quilled silence :—" We want Mir Robert Peel to beware. If he persists in his present silence he may die' cover with rearet, *hen regret will be idle,. that the commercial wealth of this country , tho u g h great, cannot continue under the existing, system ; that its enterprise, though unbounded, must jsivke wAy when its merchants are excluded, by an illiberal British code, from foreign markets ; and that the patience of ti suffering' lx 0• plc must ultimately he way under the Ora tions which they have so long heroically oi -1 dm•ed. Let him speak rni4 theeefeee, Wheti si!ertees is useless, and- before disclosure be unavailing.'— Vu by should :sir 11, Peel speak put t , when a majority of ninety -one are in favour of his olding }i i; t(iiiiitte ? Why should he speak out, when the aristocracy, to a man, are ready to swear that nothing can be so prudent, statesmanlike, or beneficial to the country, as his pre sent silence? Above all, why should he speak out, when he has nothing to speak about? Such, no doubt, is the way in which his party argues; but not so will the country argue; but infer, rationally enough, from his reserve, that he hits neither inclination nor capacity to devise such remedial measures as nosy suit the interests of the people. • The Dublin Evening Past remarks, in reference to Sir R. Peers Irish policy :—" Sir Robert Peel, with his ha bitual dexterity, availed himself of the complimentary remarks of Lord John Russell respecting the principat Irish appointments, t o ma k e a very premature boast that he had already got over the great difficulty of go verning Ireland. The first factiouS proceedine--- th e first indica tion, upon the part of the Irish Government, towards the old insulting and tyrannical Tory system, will prove to Sir Robert Peel that he has reckoned without his host."

It now becomes a matter of rather serious consideration as to whether the present supply of one million and a-half quarters of foreign wheat will carry us on till next harvest, or whether our trading interests are to be again exposed to the danger arising from a depression of the exchanges, and a con traction of the currency. The circumstance that the Chancellor of th" Exchequer will receive cash as well as bills in exchange for his Three per Cei t.
