Sun Office, Aug. 30, 1841. HIGH WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE THIS DAY. M0rning......31 minutes attar S. $ Evening ......44 minutes after 3. LONDON : SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1841. Lord Joni Ru SELL last night made his an -nounced speech on the silent and reserved po licy of Sir ROBERT PEEL. After adverting to our foreign relations, and making a number of observations on the law of the State of New -York, the Noble Lord, with a candour, of which 'Sir ROBERT PEEL took a skilful advantage, ad mitted that the appointments made with regard to Ireland gave him great satisfaction. Lord .Joni does not expect that Lord ELIOT will in troduce Lord STANLEY'S Bill; and that admis sion made Sir ROBERT PEEL say that the Noble Lord had now admitted that he had got over the 'difficulty as to Ireland, which three months amo was described as an insupereile bar to the Tories governing that country in peace. We pry not into Lord Jolts RUSSELL'S motives for this ami able candour, but to the public it will appe ar as Noble Lords and Right Hon. Gentlemen thought much more of their personal feelings than of that public good for which they meet to consult. Lord JOHN took exceptions at considerable length to Sir ROBERT PEEL'S policy for not at ()nee meeting and discussing the Corn-law ques tion, and dwelt with much tierce on the great dis tress of the people, the decay of trade, and the Tiecessity of taking immediate measures to give relief to the suffering classes. To all his reasons, which Avere well urged, but not supported by any motion, Sir R. REEL turned a deaf ear, and entered with a more consequential air than usual .into a party controversy, which be thanked Lord JOHN RUSSELL for provoking. If he were to be taunted with not proposi an alteration of the Corn-law after he had been only a mouth in office, what could be said of the late Ministry, who had been five years in office, and had not proposed any measure till they were lett in a minority The Right Hon. Baronet also ransacked their Budget, mocked at their timber duties, thought he bad shown that the alteration in the sugar duties would not h:tve added to the revenue, and asserted that the free traders who now saw corn i t ri porta i Would Ite cept the Ss. duty, leaving the fixed duty men without any support in the country. The Right Hon. Baronet was loud in his assertion, that he would not govern the county as the instrument of any man's opinion, and the instant he could not freely act on his own conviction of what is for the public good he would retire. ',Ord PALMEESTON answered Sir R. PEEL in a very able speech, and cautioned the Tories to remember that there was a country as well a 3 a House of Commons, and that their majority did not represent public opinion. Lord PALMERSTON convicted Sir R. PEEL of applying the argu :Aents which were directed against an alteration of the Canadian timber duties, to an alteration of the Baltic timber dutes. The Noble Lord :night have added, too, that Sir R. PEEL'S calcu lations about the sugar duties omitted the im portant element of hope. When the Ministers proposed their Budget they united an alteration of the sugar duties, the corn duties, and the tim ber duties in one scheme. Had that been car ried into effect, the corn trade and the timber trade would undoubtedly have increased. A stimulus would have been given to our export trade—there would have been more employment for the people—speculation would have been rife —more corn and sugar would have been used— and a considerable quantity of foreign sugar would have found its way into the mar ket, adding to the revenue, while the price, in consequence of the additional demand, would not have sunk so low as at present. Sir R. PEEL, however, wonderful critic! could see only the price of sugar in the Parliamentary papers. Great philosopher as he is, he overlooked the ingredient of hope, though to the administration of his Tory predecessors it yielded, in the shape of lottei ies, a fixed sum yearly to the revenue. It was well remarked by Mr. VILLIERS, that trade bad been paralyzed by the uncertainty of commercial men as to the conduct of the Legis lature, which began in April to talk about our commercial regulations, and has talked about them ever since. Sir 9BERT PEEL reasoned concerning the Budget on the facts of this year, as if they would have been the same had the Budget been settled in May; and concluded, because trade has been dull, and the price of sugar low, that the revenue would not have been increased had trade been flourishing and foreign sugar abun dantly imported. A greater master of fallacies, a more accomplished advocate, and a less candid, less truth-seeking statesman that Sir R. PEEL never spoke in the House of Commons. One of his statements surprised us, because it -.vas so contrary to his ordinary wisdom. He again admitted the deficiency in the revenue, and the necessity for equalising it with the ex penditure; " But I cannot take measures," he said, in substance, " to remedy the evil till I know the whole deficiency. There is China ; you have put the expense of the expedition in that country down at 400,0001., but can I be sure that it will not be four times that sum. Then there is a great Colonial expenditure. New South Wales is making a demand to the extent of 000,0001. New Zealand has drawn bills for nearly 100,0001. Canada has been promised a gua rantee for a large sum. lam sure the House will see that I must have time to con sider all these matters before I attempt to make a financial plan that shall provide for them all." Very true, Sir ROBERT, you cannot provide for n evil of which you have no cognizance, but does that preclude you from providing for one with which you are well acquainted? Let us il lustrate this proceeding by a transaction in pri vate lite. Suppose Sir ROBERT'S friend, the Duke of BUCKINGHAM, were out at elbows, that his ex penditure exceeded his revenue, and that he was borrowing money every year—suppose, at the :same time, that he had farms mismanaged and underlet, timber which he could fell, unworked quarries and collieries which persons were anxious to hire—would not Sir ROBERT recommend his Grace to begin at once to make the two ends meet? Would he not urge him not to delay improving his cultivation, raising the rents of his farms, cutting down his timber, let ting his quarries and collieries, and so adding to his resources, while he improved his property? To be sure he would; and he would, moreover, treat his Grace as a great ninny, if his Grace were to say, " Oh, I cannot take these measures now, I do not know what will be the amount of my tailor's bill. My Duchess is gone abroad, Ind she may yet draw for 1,0001. more than I expect, and my bailiff may expend 1001. more on improvements than I contemplate. No; I must wait to see the whole amount of all the de mands which may possibly be made on me, be fore I can take any steps, except to borrow more money." Now, that which ;would be folly in an indi vidual can hardly be wisdom in a Statesman. Our cramped trade, may well be compared to idle quarries and unworked collieries—our boun ties on slovenly cultivation is a mismanaged :arm—our various exorbitant discriminating duties which may be easily removed, are great masses of timber which may be immediately cut down; but neither these nor any other thing will Sir R. PEEL do till he has ascertained what will be the extent of the demands on ac count of China and the Colonies. Well did Lord PALMERSTON observe, if the Right Hon. Baronet waited for the accounts from China, he could bring, forward no Budget till 184, and if he waited till all his colonial Governors were so well drilled as never to draw an unanticipated bill, the Right Hon. Baronet would not propose any measures before the end, not of the next Session, but of the next Parliament. Yet these niasieries of Sir ROBERT PEEL--the arguments which, uttered by a private individual, he would treat with scorn, were loudly cheered by the Tories. Every one of them told on the back benches, and Sir ROBERT was praised by them for avowing conduct as a statesman, which, were he a private individual, they would say, " re commend him to the especial care of his friends." It seems that the old Banking-house of HOB riousE, at Bath, has stopped; it appears, ton, by the account of the proceedings of the Bank of England, at the quarterly meeting the day before yesterday, that the Bank of England has been very prosperous this last half-year. It declared a dividend of three-and-a-half per cent., or seven per cent. per annum, and at the same time added a considerable sum to the rest. Whatever befals the rest of the community, and whatever befals other joint-stcck and private banks, the Bank of England flourishes. Like the landlords, it seems to thrive as the people starve. of Thursday : The Paris Journals of Thursday contain but little news of interest. Some disturbances took place in Paris on that day, in consequence of the police attempting to take some of PAPPARD'S ac complices in the Rue St. Antoine, but they were suppressed by the National Guards. In the afternoon an omnibus was overturned, and a barricade raised, but some mounted companies of National Guards cleared the streets of the rioters. it was not supposed that these.disturb ances would be renewed. Order reigned at Clermont on the I:2th, where a large body of troops were assembled. About five leagues from that town an impious band of forty fellows burned the seats in a church, and otherwise desecrated it, but the inhabitants of the neighbourhood at tacked and took some of them prisoners. Re specting the rumoured death of the Duke of BORDEAUX, we find the following in the Ternps v. Ti,e death of the Duke of Bordeaux was re-assert. d on Wednesday. The great heat, and the insensibility of the wounded Prince were said to have brought on tetanus. Government denied having had any such news. It was said that a courier of M. 'Rothschild's brought it. This M. Rothschild himself denied on 'Change. M. RothsChild came to sell stock at the mo ment of - the Rentes being 78E 20c. The following paragraphs include all the other news of general interest contained in these papers : .• A letter from Bonmes state that a battery of artillery hacrstq• - oir.-.fri , nl :that p!ace, on -tli e .l2th just. for Cler mont, provided with 1,200 rounds.

The Nail) Assan, on receiving the news of this insult, had hastened to the assistance of the Vice-Consul. re-established him in his post, re-hoisted his flag, and ordered the sacrifice of an ox in expiation of the insult." A few evenings ago a well-dressed man, whose name and person were unknown, having enveloped his head in a handkerchief, laid it upon the railway between Brus sells and Malines, in order that it might be crushed by the first train. This took place, and the unfortunate man, in whose pockets no money of any kind was found, was buried at Ever. A Liege Journal states that the Emperor of Russia has sent an order to an armourer of that town for 15,000 percussion muskets with rifle barrels, at 80f. each, for the Imperial Guard. These guns are to carry a ball 1,000 paces, and to be discharged are placed on rests which are so light that they are easily carried slung to the belt. A box formed in the butt-end of the pieces carries the various small implements required. Bavaria and other Gertnan States, it is said, have sent orders to Liege for similar arms. The Temps says—" From ten o'clock till now M. Franck Carre, the Attorney-General, and several Ma gistrates of the parquet were assembled at the Concier genie to proceed to the examination of Papprt. " Numerous arrests have been made in different quar ters of Paris, and particularly in the faubourg St. An. toine. It was said, that among the persons arrested there were several accomplices of Pappart, and among others the person who loaded his pistol. " These arrests caused some sensation in the vicinity of the houses in which they were made. They were the origin of the first assemblage which were formed during the day in the faubourg St. Antoine." The Toulonnais has a letter from Algiers of the 6th, of which the following are extracts:— "Active preparations are making for revictualling Medeah and Miliana. Numerous convoys carry to Blidah the provisions which will be taken from that place. " It is said that a battalion of the 58th will go to oc cupy Medeah, and that Miliana will be garrisoned by a battalion of the 26th. • It is thought that the revie Wal ling of those two places will be effected between the 20th and 25th of this month. Immediately afterwards the autumn campaign will commence, the principal opera tions of which will be, as is supposed, in the province of Oran. " Since the last expedition the Arabs have made no hostile movement, except partially, at Blidah. Some marauders of the tribe of Beni-Sola have come latterly to molest the inhabitants, who went into the gardens to gather fruit. " Last week some sallies, skilfully executed by the Zonades, ended with the capture of eight or ten horses and mules ; the Zonades brought back also the head of two enemies, which were exposed the next day at the gate of Bap- Cepa. " Lieutenant-Colonel Regnault has taken great pains with the gardens, which were abandoned by the Arabs, and have been since neglected. They recovered their former verdure, and the orange-trees, the fruit of which is very celebrated, promise an abundant crop for next year."—Le Constitutional.

Answer.—That gave England no right to invade America. Times.—" The destructio n of the Caroline waS It mat ter of self defence." Answer.—That is to be proved. If she had been de stroyed out of the American waters it would have been so. If she had been pursued into the American waters when flying from an attack it would have been so. But she was deliberately attacked and destroyed in the Ame rican waters without any previous demand for redress, without any proof offered, any declaration made, that she was a piratical vessel. Her destruction was, there fore, an attack on the American nation. Times.—" The State of New York was bound to en force the neutrality of its citizens," Answer. - ---Undoubtedly, if it could. An American General was sent with troops to enforce it. -But the frOntier is immense, and covered with forests. The neu trality could not be enforced. Was - bad faith on the part of the American Government suspected ? If so, an energetic remonstrarce and notice of reprisals, if redress was not granted, would have been the mode of proceed ing according to the international law. Was no deceit suspected ? Then a demand for the surrender of the Caroline and her crew as a piratical vessel, or the pu nishment of the pirates, according to the laws of America, would have been the proper mode of proceeding. In either casc the right of the American nation to have its sovereignty in Its own waters respected would have been conceded, but the deliberate destruction of the Caroline in these waters being a complete act in itself, and not. the continuation of an attack commenced before she took refuge in the American waters, was quite unauthorized by international law. Was it a matter of necessity ? 'iltet necessity should ha ve been shown, and an apology founded cm it offered for the attaint upon American so vereignty. Had this been done on the instant no weak ness or dishonour could have been imputed to England, and though it would be less graceful now, it is never too late to act justly and honourably. Times.—"lhe Federal Government has explicitly re cognized the right of England to insist unconditionally on Me. M`Leod's release." Answer'—This has no bearing on the queStion. The captivity and trial of M‘Leod, after the English Govern ment had taken upon itself the responsibility of destroy • ine! the Caroline, is a violation of international law on the part of America, which the Federal Government don not defend, and which it endeavours to redress. But this in no manner justifies the previous .violation of international law by England. The Federal Government is willing to redress the injustice done to us by re leasing M‘Leod, but apparently it is unable. We,then, on our part, ought to express an equal willingness to redress the injury done to American sovereignty, either by showing the necessity or plehding the provocation, and apologizing. In fine, if the Times would adduce those proofs of the necessity for the destrucwhichtionhave of the Caro line, he the manner it was effected, down in Mr. Webster's letter to Mr. Fox as requisite to bring the act within the pale of international law, it would be more reasonable and more effectual than calling my proposal for an apology " stark staring non-sense." W. NAPIER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin—Tne vain-glorious lastings and too-confident predictions of the newly elected Member for the rotten, borough of Dorchester, are not always borne out by the result. In his election speech on Monday he referred to the then approaching election for this borough in tin following terms,—" The town of Dorchester will thi , day exercise its privileges with much more satisfaction; than the far-famed town of Bridport, where a tale will be told on Wednesday next that will astonish those whc, pretend to be so bitterly hostile to bribery, intimidation, and corruption. There will then be told a tale of such election purity and absence of extortion as will satisfy the most unblushing specimen of Ratljcalism." Now, Sir, will you believe it, not one of the predlctions thus confidently uttered by this rich specimen of " re:legade" Radicalism, was verified by the event. At our election yesterday . no " tale was told," such as this false prophb! had predicted would astonish the friends of purity of election. Nothing was said about bribery, intimidation, corruption, or extortion. No disclosures were made that could rinse a blush even upon the sensitive chee k of the Right Hon. Representative of the slavish doctors of Dorchester, who, in returning him to Parliament, are obsequiously obeying the dictates 'of those whose will is absolute in that degraded borough. Mr. Cochrani , too well understood the value of the instruction conveyed in the ancient adage—" They who live in glass housei , should never throw stones," to venture a single word upon these delicate topics, knowing, as he well does, that in all the crimes alluded to by the renegade prophet, his own party have infinitely exceeded ; and that the only advantage he enjoyed over his opponents was, that of not having a Judas in his camp. ,Mr. Cochrane's election passed off very quietly, and the chh.Lring followed immediately after. The number o f electors i n the procession was so insignificant, that they were fain to ex., it out by mustering the farmers and farm-labourers from all be surrounding rural districts, who flocked in, attended by t;isiir respective parsons. It was a question asked many ages " How shall a man be wise whose talk is of b ullocks?" al:d the condnct ol the agricultural population o f the p resent ez.a. irresistibly impels the same inquiry.

This shows the little confidence which the people have in the supremacy of the law. A Government is never. strong where a revo lution is believed to be possible. The following is the number of ships now in commis sion belonging to England and France:—Cf line-of battle ships, carrying from 120 to 72 guns, England has in commission twenty-seven ; France, twenty—of fri gates, carrying from 60 to 36 guns, England has thir teen ; France, nineteen—of corvette?, sloops, brigs, and other small craft, earring from 30 guns downwards, England has one hundred and fotir ; France, an equal number—and of steamers, exclusive of mail packets and exploring vessels, from 300 to 100 horse power, Eng land has twenty-nine ; France, twenty-eight. The Government organ, the Messager, says that order was restored in Clermont on the 12th. This order, if a temporary lull may be called by that name, which is only preserved by the presence of an overwhelming military three ; and yet, in the very face of this rebellion of the French people, rather than pay more taxes, the Courrier Francais bellows against a reduction of the army, and the National execrates any attempt to reduce a naval force one half greater than is required fur the interests of France.

They are highly praised fur their peaceable and forbearing conduct. Bets of Si. even have been taken that the receipts On the Brighton Railway in the second week after it has been opened throughout, will be 4,0001. ; and 51. to 214. that the recipts of the two first weeks will equal 8,0001. It appears from a late report of tl:e Paris and Rouen Railway Company, that the Shareholders have be n too liberal in the supply of funds ; that the Company I ave too much money in hand, which the report calls an in convenience, and beg the Shareholders not to increase it. The three steamers on the Niger expedition arrived safely on the sth ult., in Montserado-roads, on the coast of Africa. The Abyssinian expedition, under Captain Harris, which left Bombay on the 27th of April, has paid a visit to the curious salt lake of Assal, and are now near Ta jpnah. The people are prejudiced against them, as they suppose their object to be the suppression of the slave trade. Sir Watkin Williams Wynn laid the foundation-stone of the new market at Oswestry on Monday last, in the presence of nearly 150 personages of title. Lord and Lady Farnham received the melancholy in telligence of the death of the Hon. Robert Thomas Max well. his Lordship's brother, on Wednesday, at Mivart's Hotel. He died at Newtown Barry on Monday last, in laimmawdzszTr.a.nY. Mr. D. Barclay, in the house of Commons last night, gave notice of a motion fur au address to put down priva teering. On Sir Robert Pea moving the House into a Commit tee of Supply, Lord John Russell objected at consider able length to the policy of the new Ministers, particu larly in not making known their plans as to the Corn laws. Sir Robert Peel defended his own conduct by finding fault with the conduct of his predecessors, and seemed to think that he was exonerated' fur not proposing an alteration in the Corn-laws, because the late Ministers had not done it for five years. Lord Palmerston happily exposed several of Sir Ro bert's mistakes. The debate which ensued was animated by the bold and emphatic language of the free traders and the nettled retorts of LordSandon and an unknown county representative. It was shared by several Members and lasted the whole evening. Lord John Russell made no motion, he only made a speech. Mr. Fielden moved a resolution, setting forth the distress of the manufacturers, and declaring that Parliament ought not to be prorogued without inquiring into it. His motion was negatived by 149 to 41. The House went into a Committee of Supply, after Mr. Greene had been appointed chairman of Committees, and agreed to several votes. It was then alit:gulled. the 23d year of his age. At the Spccial Court of Common Council held yes terday, for the improvements in the Law Courts of the City, the expense was estimated at 8,8001., and the al terations voted to be proceeded with by a majority of 18 out of 80. 7aUIYZOIMS 01 1 TIE DAY. Viscount Campden, eldest son of the Earl of Gains borough, will shortly lead to the by menial altar the Lady Ida Hay, daughter of the Earl and Countess of Errol. PII3X.IC OPINION. The Post, ashamed of its atrocious suggestion yes er day to laugh down Lord John Russell, thus changes its tone after the debate of last night:—" If we thought that the distress which exists in some parts of the manu facturing districts, were likely to receive any effectual mitigation from Parliamentary debates, we should be sorry to say one word against prolonging the present session in order that discussion might go on. But we cannot perceive any ground for such un opinion. We have looked into the very wordy statements of those who advocate Parliamentary discussion, but we can find nothing in them which has the slightest claim to the cha racter of sound argument. As soon as there is anything of importance to say, let it be said; but he must be a singular glutton of discussion who does not believe that enough of mere argumentation pro and con upon the ge neral question of the policy of the Corn-laws has been presented to the public. The Herald takes another and a strange view of the REVISION OF VOTERS. (THIS DAY.) CITY OF LONDON. A point having been argued yesterday as to the elegibility of pensioners on the Haberdashers' Company to vote, The Revising Barrister on taking his seat this morn+ ing, said he considered that the law as laid down ill Roger's Book of Elections, p. 107, established that right. It was then said that—" What amounts to the recipience of such alms, in the strict interpretation of the law of Parliament, becomes a question not easy to decide. In many old boroughs, the usage, place, and direc tion of Committees, have decided this point. In those old boroughs, where the usage is not clear, and in all new boroughs, it seems to be a general principle that, with respect to all charitable foundations and en dowments, those persons only are disqualified who are recipients from parish resources, available for the relief of paupers, and which are at the disposal of the over seers or other officers, whose duty it is to provide for paupers. In support of this opinion the Learned Re vising Barrister cited the Bedford case, the case of Harpur's charity, 3d Douglas, page 123, and page 235, Eiliot's Treatise, where, under the head of " Per sonal disqualification of voters," it said, concerning Harpur's charity—" the point under consideration arose from the fact of certain estates having been granted to the Corporation of Bedford by Sir William Harpur for certain charitable purposes, namely, to be distributed among the poor of the said town, and fcr the relief of poor decayed housekeepers residing therein. It appeared that this charity had been given to the middle classes, and many who paid taxes, and that it always had been distinguished from parish pay. The Committee resolved, Persons receiving Sir William Harpur's charity are not thereby disqualified within the meaning of the determi nation of the 12th April, 1690."' The names of such persons, he thought, were therefore entitled to remain or the List. subject, and argues that the alteration of the Corn-laws proposed by the late Government would raise the price of provisions. Sir Robert Peel is, therefore, acting mercifully in maintaining the sliding-scale. Dotage could no further go. "Lord John Russel," says this oracle, has great reason' to believe that the new Administra tion will make no considerable alteration in the Corn- laws. Lord John has become a prophet; he is a second Daniel come to judgment I' Why, the general election turned on this very point, and the kingdom, by an im mense majority, has decided that no considerable alte ration' shall be made ; at least no alteration that would place a permanent tax on bread, such as the Noble Lord proposed, and would, at the sama time, deeply injure native agriculture ; fcr the Whig plan was possessed of a most perverse ingenuity ; it would have raised the price of bread to the consumer, while it in flicted irreparable mischief on the home grower. The Noble Lord appears on the Corn-laws incapable of look ing at anything but the wants of the Treasury ; increase of revenue is the object for which he would impose a fixed duty on foreign grain. Now, happily for the country, Sir Robert Peel has repudiated all such grovel ling views on this subject ; he will not lay a permanent tax on the prime necessary of life, even to make up the deficit left him by the Whigs. Lord John Russell con cluded by disclaiming all responsibility in the proposed delay. Nobody asked the Noble Lord to assume any . responsibility ; the country has, on the contrary, relieved him of responsibility ; and he may henceforth comfort himself that the post of honour is a private station.' " The Times jests on this serious subject in the following strain :—" Her Majesty's Prime Minister having given the brief and business-like statement already alluded to, it occurred to Lord John Russell, as the prime oracle of Opposition, that it might be well to take a night to think of it, and frame his response accordingly. He has done so, and last evening the first shrill trump of the Noble Lord's foemanship was formally sounded. Before his Lordship's bugle was fully winded to its proper party pitch, it seemed to emit a few generous and amicable flourishes. Sundry little militant airs were very sweetly played. In particular, Sir Robert Peel's Irish appoint ments were honoured with a grand fuge. But in a very short while the noble band-master's esprit de corps got the better of his chivalry, and ere all was done, ' He blew a blast so loud and dread,' ----- - THE MARKETS-THIS DAY.

Trade was very good this moiming, and the demand mu2l3 beyond the supply. Beef, 2s. Bd, to 4 s. 2 d. ; Mutton, 3s. to 4s. 4d. ; Veal, 4s. to ss. ; Pork, 4s. to ss. 2d. ; Lamb, 4s. 4d. to ss. 2d. Clover, 31. to 61.; Meadow Hay, 2/. to 4/. 155.; Straw, 11. 18s. to 2/. 2s. TEA MARKET. Little business done but the principal holders w e r e firm, and the trade were compelled to pay stiff prices to meet their wants. TALLOW MARKET. Very little disposition to buy. Prices were little betizr than nominal, at 46s on the spot and 48s to arrive. that the whole Conservative ranks must have been thrown into utter consternation, only his Lordship as sured them that the thing was done, not as betokening a serious onslaught, but merely as the make-believe of a private Parliamentary trooper. There was, therefore, no mischief done. It did not even end in smoke—mere sound was all that came of it." The Chronicle thus exposes the grasping selfishness and deceitful conduct of gir Robert 'Peel, in forcing Lor John Russell to hasten the meeting of Parliament, on pretence of the urgency of public business, while he now secs no necessity for doing anything for six months : " What makes the present conduct of Ministers yet more glaringly disgraceful, is the energy with which, three months ago, Sir Robert Peel insisted that the new Par liament should be assembled now, for the express purpose, amongst others, of settling the Corn-law question. Having carried his No-Confidence reso lution, having driven the then Ministry to a disso lution of Parliament, and having enforced the early meeting of the new Parliament, by refusing more than a fraction of the Supplies, he also urged it, with reference to the immense advantage which it must be to all persons engaged in commercial specubtions, or enterprise of any kind, to know what was to be the state of the law affecting the importation of corn.' Such was Sir Robert Peel's professed conviction no longer ago than the 7th of June last ; a conviction backed by the refusal of the year's supplies for carrying on the Government. Under the constraint which he applied, Parliament is sitting. The settlement which he so imperatively demanded has been recommended from the throne. The powers of office are in his hands. He can carry his own mea sures.' He can bestow this ' immense advantage ;' or, b) withholding it, inflict an immense injury.' • But the real purposes of the party are gained, and commercial speculation' may malt till next year. The pretence stands exposed in all its hollowness ; the professed be lief and anxiety in all their falsehood." The Dublin Evening Post considers that the Reform party was never so powerful in Ireland as now, and for proof points to the dinner given to Lord Morpethi— " We have said that the meeting of Tuesday night Whs calculated to raise high hopes for the Allure, and we , said truly; for it was impossible to witness that mani festation of the increasing strength and the cordial union of the Reformers of Ireland, without being convinced that she possesses within herself the power of protecting and extending her rights against any confederacy of bigots and monopolists, whether they attempt to delude by fair n ords, or openly assail her liberties by coercion. • LLCDYD'S SHIPPING—(THIS DAY.)
