MORNING SUN TO THE ELECTORS OF MIDDLESEX. GENTLEMEN, THE distinguished honour which you have this day, for the fifteenth time, conferred upon me, de mands tr,v warmest thanks, and impresses on my mind the con viction that my past services in Parliament, during a period of . upwards of fifty years, have met with your entire appro bation. It must be unnecessary for me to explain the line of con duct I intend to adopt in the ensuing Parliament, as you must be fully aware that at all times it has been my most anxious endeavour to prove to you on all occasions my desire for your welfare; and I can assure you my zeal for it will, with the blessing of tke Almighty, continue unwearied so long as Ishal be your representative. I can most confidently assert that I have never been in fluenced in the discharge of my Parliamentary duties, by any person's consideration ; and on again returning to the House of Commons, I shall feel that your confidence is a proof that you consider my conduct to have been upright and indepen• dent, and' that I am worthy to be the representative of one of the most enlightened constituencies in the empire—an honour I have always valued more than any that could be conferred by a Sovereign. Throughout my life I have advocated those principles which are founded on that beautiful precept—" As ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise ;" and from which alone can spring the happiness and the glory of this na tion. By such principles I have been actuated from my youth, and to them I shall adhere to the close of my life. With feelings of sincere regard, I am, your faithful servant, St. James's-square, July 7, 1841. G. BYNG. JUNIOR UNITED SERVICE CLUB, &c. And its 1,900 Members. By the rules of all Societies, ancient and modern, charges against any member are alwa 3 substantiated, under the most critical examination, devoid of ex-parte statements—an accusa tion copy in full being sent previously to him, the whole of which, as a basis of proceeding, placed under "the MAINSTAY" of a Proposer and Seconder, to make the same valid; and if not done so " OPENLY," all premeditated charges fall to the ground. At the meeting called of the Members in London on Thursday last, touching on matters foreign, and out of the sphere of the Climb Asso ciation, as will be evident to all, the Secretary, on the elec tion of Chairman, instantly began to read a Repo rt filling two and a half sheets in foolscap composition of irrelevant and scurrilous abuse—none of which was sanctioned by the Chairman to be proved—although co ntaining most libellous assertions, under various dates. The said malicious assertions—even had they been proved— a copy of "THE INDICTMENT," as well as time for a reply, should have been given, in common courtesy, for refutation, as it is in all well-organised societies; instead of which, a pre mature haste, " by show of hands," at the conclusion of the reading by the Secretary,—caused this unknown in strument, " A REPORT," so called, to be predominant, in such wise as to one's rule, without any proposer or seconder being admitted—to the subject matter before the Club—a circum stance contrary to the standing rules. From the above show ing, each individual member will at once perceive and be asto nished as gentlemen to think at the slender thread that binds them to this and other associations of like nature, if once admitted. Therefore they now will learn publicly from this my protest (as stated at the meeting)—that I don't intend to quit the Club, or calmly give up my share of the Club investment, which the compound interest of nay en trance money and subscription yearly guarantees by law an inherent right to a Member's and contributory abate, now va lued at FORTY THOUSAND Pounds sterling.

LONDON: SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1341. ;Oa Till we saw 'the Tory Morning Papers 5-• ester day, joining in one chorus of praise, we de erred Lord STANLEY'S speech, at tho nominatio a for Lancashire unworthy of remark. A more com plete collection of fallacious common placA s, put into well sounding phraseology, is scar c ely to be met with. It is matched, indeed, bi it not surpassed, by the article in the Quarterly• kevieic on the Budget, in *which there is on th e subject of the Corn-laws a great want of sense, except in the proofs it affords that a fixed is quite as :in jurious as a s lidi ng d uty. Our present business, however, is with Lord STANLEY and ill the first g instance, with o ne passage of LEY , spe , ech. We shall return t o his Lordship. An) ong other, things, he said— On© word to the manufacturing laboure; s. They tell you that their foreign trade will be 0-pally inegeased by cheap bread. Why? Because they call pr , .iiiice the ar ticle cheaper. Why? Because 'they will have to pay lower wages. What other earthly reason?—(Loud cries of " Hear," and cheers.) The only mode in which cheapness can benefit the manufacturing community, is by enabling them to produce their goods cheaper; and they will so produce them, because, on their own show ing, they will give a smaller amount of wages.—(Hear, hear.) If they don't, the labourer obtains the benefit ; but then the increase of manufactured goods will not follow. Is not this the manufacturer's own argument? I defy any man to come forward and say that this is not the manufacturer's argument.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") Reduce the cost of production, and you increase the production. How else, in the name of plain common sense, but by lowering wages ?—(Cheers.) For Lord STANLEY to misrepresent his oppo nents' arguments is nothing new—it is his usual tactics. The manufacturers have never said that they could produce the article cheaper solely be cause they would have to pay lower wages; on the contrary, they have throughout argued the question of the Corn-laws on the ground that the abolition would be equally a benefit to them and the labourers. Lord STANLEY has not taken their argument, he has stolen the fallacy of the Chartists, and palmed it off on his hearers as the manufacturers' argument. They disclaim it, but Lord STANLEY made it his own, and professed his belief in it. The Noble Lord roundly asserted that cheap bread and the abolition of the Corn-laws would lower wages. Only by lowering wages, he said, could the cost of production be decreased and production augmented. Lord STANLEY ut tered that sentiment with the smoke of hundreds of tall chimneys rising in his view. He spoke these words surrounded by the most ingenious machinery for supplying the wants and ministering to the comforts of life that ever the art of man invented. He spoke them surrounded with masses of fixed capital, much of which is standing idle, some of which is going to ruin, and all of which is falling in value because it cannot be employed. Speaking these words so surrounded, it is impossible for Lord STANLEY to plead ignorance of the fact that -machinery does the greater part of the manufac turing process, and that the price of every piece of cloth consists of the cost of the machinery, or the remuneration of fixed capital, and the wages of labour. In what proportions the price is di vided between these two, we pretend not to guess; it is different in different manufactures; but this we know, and this we state—and if Lord STANLEY do not know this, or, knowing it, blinked it, he is in the one case from gross igno rance, or in the other from more vicious insin cerity, unworthy of his station—that in propor tion as the remuneration of machinery enters into the price, so may the manufacturer, or the owner of fixed capital, lessen the cost of pro duction by producing more, without lowering wages. What is at present the case in Lancashire ? The mills are working four days in the week, and several of them are shut up. On two days the manufacturers gain nothing on all their fixed capital which is unemployed; but on those two days their mills, like those always shut up. are a source of expense and loss. Now suppose, by the abolition of the Corn-law, trade should be so much extended that all these mills were working full time, for all that portion of the large pro cess which is performed by machinery, no in creased expense, or a very trifling one, would arise for working six days more than for working four. Suppose that 10,000 pieces of cotton cloth are produced by one mill in four days, then in six days it will produce 15,000 pieces. Now sup pose, as we do not know exactly the proportions in which the price is divided between the remu neration of machinery and the wages of labour, that it is equal—machinery has half, and wages half. Suppose further, then, the cloth sells for 20s. a piece, then in the former case there will be 10,0001. to be equally divided between the manu facturer and the labourer, and in the latter there will be 15,0001. ;each will get 7,500/. though both will be paid in the same proportion as when only 10,000 pieces were made ; hut in the latter case the manufacturer, without incurring anything like a corresponding expense, will reap an addi tional profit 0f2,500/. Now if the manufacturer desires to force or extend his market he may lower the price of his cloth 2s. a piece, sell the 15,000 pieces for 18s. a piece, and still• gain a clear additional profit of 1,0001. without lowering the wages of his work men a farthing; on the contrary, by obtaining more employment their remuneration will be, on the whole, increased one-third. We do not make this statement,' as a correct pounds, shillings, and pence • state ment, but a correct outline of the means by which an increase in the demand for the manu facturer's cloth; the result of the abolition of the Corn-law, would be advantageous to him, though accompanied by a considerable fall in the price of the article, enabling him to under sell his competitors in the market, without at all lowering the rate, and largely increasing the whole amount of wages. But this case of a single mill is an epitome of all our manufac- , tures, and shows that the more machinery is extended the more production may be increased, and the more it is increased the more the price , of production may be lowered without lowering wages. , We cannot imagine an excuse for Lord STANLEY making such an erroneous state ment, speaking in Lancashire,, and overlook ing, or forgetting, the employment and ef fects of fixed capital, or our superb ma chinery, in lowering the cost of production. We can easily forgive Mr. LOVETT, the author we believe of the fallacy that Lord STANLEY has filched, for overlooking these effects, because he has not lived in a manufacturing district; but for one of the great landowners there, whose wealth is mainly enhanced by the increased price given for sites for this machinery to overlook it is wholly inexcusable. Seeing that Lord S TANLEY had a base party purpose to serve by it, the Noble Lord will excuse our straightforwardness if we add that he blinked this designedly, in order to gull and blind by his great authority, the ignorant freeholders he was addressing. One of the peculiarities, or rather the pre eminent advantages of England is, the possession of machinery in unheard-of masses and of ex quisite superiority. If we say that at present one half of the price of all our manufactures goes to remunerate the owners of the machinery, and the other half to pay the wages of the ploy ed labourers e rn in using it, we shall not b e , perhaps, far w rong. The manufacturers and the owners of that machinery wish to bring it into full operation; th e y wish to erect and use more ; they wish to exchange its produce for the corn and flour of the U n i te d States and of Russia. No, says Lord STANLEY ; shall No, saywoer which wou ld be the nation b the existing the ma chinery, landlords,e e y n o r u ic s b h e a d ll n b o y t doall that,the wealth n crea ted by fully employing and by erecting more, for that wo u ld put our land out of cultivation. w as there ever anything more absurd ? It is clear the ma n ufacturing labou rers wou ld have more to do , and more pay by th e a b o lition of the Corn - laws and the calling more machinery into operation; it is clear that owners of machinery would derive great advantages and obtlin a great increase of wealth, from em it is clear that an additional demand I p v l o o u y l i d n g it ; arise for that machinery which only our own people can supply ; it is perfectly clear that the corn imported, however large the quan tity, could by uo possibility keep out of the market anything like an equal quantity of Eng lish corn, because the importation implies a cor responding extension of manufactures, more than at present. There would be more articles manu factured. But, under this preposterous, idle fear , the landlords condemn to idleness this beautiful and advantageous machinery, condemn to com parative idleness those who use it, and those who make it, and deprive the community of its im mense advantages, and the immense accession of wealth, which using its powers fully would bestow on its owners. Unfortunately for the reputation of law-makers, this example of their ,depriving the country, by their gross ignorance and selfishness, of one of the many advantage, ALMIGHTY has conferred on it, abounds with evi- Me statute 1 ~ at, i ,„ qtt* 4,' Na . -" 0it0;: t . ,... •L4f, e, 6 ticrft,o. ,L 4 s, k SUN; LONDON,- SATURDAY, JULY 10, - 1841. power to correct this legislative error, and ex tinguish this legislative crime. It must also be remembered that the commerce of the country was tolerably prosperous till the beginning of 1838. The continual remissions of taxation made by the Whigs from their accession to office, continually fed the hopes, stimulated the energies, and rewarded to a certain extent the exertions of the industrious classes. An end, however, came to these remissions of taxation, and the fiscal system interfering with every part of the social machine, clogged its progress. When additional taxation became necessary in 1840 its retardation was made painfully appa rent to all. Though science and morals had alike denounced the iniquitous Corn-law many years before, it was not till 1840 that its effects were so far developed that any Ministry could have been justified in proposing to alter it. Assuredly had the Whig Ministry so proposed, it would have caused an instant dissolution of the Cabi net. There is no other measure which can give more relief to the people than an alteration or abo lition of the Corn-law, and nothing more credit able than the wantonness of malice can induce any writer to accuse the Whigs of not having proposed an amendment in that erroneous and scoundrel legislation, while( they had ;great ma jorities in the House of Comm is. Argument and facts of a 'similar character ap ply to the sugar duties. Since slavery was abo lished, there has been no year of very exorbitant prices, but 1840 ; and no justification, therefore, till after the experience of that year for pro posing an alteration in the law. Had Ministers proposed it when prices were getting up, before any person could'tell how far they would rise, or how temporary was the elevation, the statement that the Whigs were taking advantage of a ino mentary and passing state of the sugar market, to injure the sugar planters, would have been un answerable and most injurious. Till 1841, then, the Ministers would not have been warranted in proposing an alteration of the sugar duties; the timber duties Lord A LTHORP tried to correct, and was by the monopolists defeated. It implies a false charge against the Ministers, then, to affirm that they inexorably maintained the protective system when they had large majorities, and only abandoned it to harrass their successors. It is only within the last three years that several of its worst consequences, which were neutralised before by successive reductions of taxation and extension of the market, have been developed, and tardy as we thought the Ministers - were in attacking it, the present contest is a proof that they have now attacked it too soon for the con tinuance of their power. We have lately laid before our readers two or three proofs of increasing attachment to free trade amongst the farmers, and here is another. On seconding the nomination of Mr. ELIOT for Roxburgh, on Tuesday last, a Mr. MURRAY, of Kerr Mains, used the following language:— lam a farmer; I have no means of paying my rent but from the laud I occupy. The cry of agriculture in danger has been raised through the length and breadth of the land. What is that cry raised for ? Mr. Scott says that he regards with alarm an experiment that has a ten dency to destroy our home agriculture, and lay us at the mercy of foreign nations.—(Hisses.) But I ask, if he is desirous, as he says he is, that the food of the people shall be as cheap as it can be consistent with a due regard to the permanent security of agricul ture, is he taking steps to procure that ? I congratu late you on the fact, that a large portion of the farmers of this county—the largest and most influential portion of them—will be found voting in favour of Mr. Elliot. —(Cheers.) I will tell you a fact which, perhaps, may startle you. I am a farmer on the Duke of Roxburghe's estate, and so wide-spread and universal is the feeling that the present system of the Corn-laws is positively incurious to the farmers (because it is injurious to the whole community), that five of his Grace's tenants, pay ing among them a rental of 8,4001. per annum, will all go forward and record their vot es f or Mr. Elliot.— (Cheers.) There was a cry raised that cheap food would lead to low wages. That was a most delusive cry, Cheap food had nothing to do with low wages. I have been in the United States ; I have seen a labouring man there earn his dollar, or nearly 4s. Gd. a day, while his loaf was only 4d., and his beef or mutton only 3d. per lb.—(Cheers.) As this is a subject in which I am pecu liarly interested, and hope to see a measure carried which shall be really beneficial to the farmer, I can con fidently assure you, that the farming inter es t i s to b e most benefited by the thriving and prosperous state of the crowds I see before me. In your prosperity rests ours.—(Cheers.) The moment that the manufacturing interest of the country falls from its high position, down goes the farmer. We have had three indifferent harvests of late, and corn has risen very high ; but then look at the'state of the manufacturer who buys our wool. From the languishing state of manufactures there hat been no demand for wool, and that article has in consequence fallen in price, till it is now less than ls. per lb. If a lower price of corn. would take money out of one of our pockets, the thriving and prosperous state of manufac tures would put it into the other.—(Cheers.) His statement that farmers are beginning to suffer in the price of their wool, was confirmed by Lord HOWICK at the nomination for Northum berland on Tuesday. It is confirmed, too, by the account of the Exeter Wool Market of July 1, as follows : Here all is still gloom, and in the raw article farthe positive decline has taken place, several parcels of yolk wool having been sold at 7i-d. per lb., a lower price than we think we have had to state for several years ; white the tendency at present, it were vain to attempt to dis guise, is still downward. Great importations of colonial wool are con tinually taking place, which fetched rather an in- creased price, and perhaps tends to beat down the price of home-grown wool. With this vast quantity of raw material, pouring in from many quarters, if the landlords will not allow the peo ple to have food, and will not allow them to find customers abroad, it is pl a i n t h at t h e wool cannot be worked up and the prices must fall. To continue the Corn-laws the landlords must also demand a heavy prot.cting duty on colonial wool, when they and the colonists of the Southern hemisphere will go to loggerheads. The re medy for their quarrels, as for all our com mercial evils, is to set trade free, and then the farmers will he sure, as Mr. MURRAY said, to find their prosperity in the prosperity of the ma nufacturers. We presume Mr. NEWDIGATE, who appeared on the hustings at Brentford to nominate Colonel WOOD, must be an elector of Middlesex. It is said, indeed, that he is to be the second Tory candidate on a future occasion. To him, there fore, in common with the other electors, is the language of Mr. BYNG addressed, which appears as an advertisement in another part of Th e Sun. If he be susceptible of any generous emotions, the contrast between Mr. BYNG'S kind words and his own harsh language, must give him great pain. Mr. NEWDIGATE is, we believe, just of age, and yet he had the impertinence to . reproach Mr. BYNG, a consistent politician for fifty years, with the errors of his political life. Mr. NEWDIGATE not only forgot the reverence, due to age, but the courtesy which is common amongst gentlemen. He admitted that Mr. Byrfp's private life was amiable—happy will it be for Mr. NEWDIGATE if, at the end of his career, any man shall be able to say either of his public or his private life that he resembled the good Mr. BYNG. --- We have received little information of interest in the political line from Paris by our correspondence of Wed nesday. The Council of Ministers which had met on Tuesday after the KING'S return was said to have been occupied with the fortification question ; but the main subject of its deliberations was known to be the final ad hesion of France to the settlement of the Oriental ques tion, and her nominal reconciliation with the great Powers of Europe. There is little doubt now but that France will actually sign the protocol which closes the acts of the Conference, but it is suspected she will set on foot secret negotiations both with the Porte and Greece for regaining her influence in the Levant. M. PISCA TORY'S mission to Athens still remains a mystery, but from the character of that Envoy it is most probable that he is looking after what sort of a chance there may be for France, in case of the Candiotes and the other Chris tian subjects getting the upper hand, to intervene with effect. The last accounts received at Paris from the Levant are favourable to the prospects of the Turks ; things are more quiet both in Albania and in Syria, and it appears that the forces of the insurgents in the Can dian mountains have been grossly exaggerated, not more than 4,000 men being actually under arms. M. HLJMANN, the Minister of Finance, had still a dif ficulty in negotiating his loan, and capitalists did not seem at all anxious to put themselves out of the way to accommodate the French Government. Two failures have taken place in Paris, one a banking firm, Messrs. YIERRUGUES, VERNINAC and Co., the other of a large Marseilles and West India house, MARENTIE and Co. The liabilities are: considerable, and many houses here are sufferers. Some firms :in London will also lose by these accidents Saint Natignal . Gnards have beet protesting against the'diSWution•of a company of the Bth Legion because t they elected a captain who had been suspended from his rank for a political demonstration ; they have sent a pro test to the Minister of the Interior, and this:will probably briliq: about a further cashiering, much to their content ,went; there being now nothing more odious to a Parisian than being found to mount guard as a citizen soldier. We should not be surprised• to see this institution abolished by common consent within another ten years ; it is made entirely nugatory by the arbitrary, tyrannical procedure of the Government, and is of no security what ever at the present moment to the family who are, for the time being, on the throne. Advices have been received from Algiers •, nothing of importance in a military point of view has been done ; the expeditionary columns had not returned to their garrisons, had nowhere met with any considerable body of the enemy, had destroyed vast quantities of corn, &c., and had captured one of ABD-EL-KADER'S Aghas. .

" The Duke of VITTORIA. " Madrid, June 20, 1841. " To Don J. Alonzo." There is no intelligence from Madrid of any value. We understand that the Infante 1)on FRANWSCO DE PAULA is to , allow his daughter, the Countess GAROWSKI, 12,000 francs (about 4801.) a year on condition of her not inhabitinpo either Spain, France, or Italy. The Count has not got any fortune of his own. On the Madrid Exchange on the 30th eleven millions of reals had been done in the Fives at 26-? 3 - 5-16 for cash, and 264 for sixty days. On the Coupons, to be capi talised, bargains were done for 2,619,351 reals. Exchange upon London, plumy days, 37i. The Malaga journals give the following alarm ing accounts of the mutiny of the garrison of Albu cemas :--" On the evening of the 7th ult., the sound of a musket shot was heard. At this signal the drums and trum pets sounded, and the soldiers rushed to arms, crying, ' Death to employes, death to our officers, and to all women and chil dren.' On hearing this noise one of the officers endeavoured to persu'de them to return to their duty, but he was immedi ately shot. An adjutant also fell a victim to their rage. They pursued him to les own house, at the door of which he fell and expired, pierced by a thousand bayonet wounds. Two serjeants and two sub-officers met a similar fate. The soldiers then spread themselves through the town, committing the greatest violence. Every female who was unfortunate enough to fall into their hands was brutally violated. The prisoners confined in the hulks were released and' joined the mutineers, by whom the town was pillaged in every direction. This con duct lasted from the 7th to the 14th, when the Governor pro ceeded, accompanied by his staff, to the barracks, and succeeded in getting the men to point out to him the ringleaders of the outbreak, who were immediately taken into custody, and seven of them shot, without any opposition on the part of their com rades. The Governor was, however, obliged to yield to the soldiery, who were in possession of the town, which remained in a state of complete anarchy. The mutineers have offered to return to their duty, on being promised pardon, but threat- en, if this is not complied with, to massacre all the inhabitants, and deliver up the place to the Moors." A recent account states that tranquillity has been again restored. The Magistrates, Deputies, and Citizens of Breslaw have presented an address to the King of PRUSSIA on the refusal of his MAJESTY to accept any from the inha bitants of that city, becau: e they had petitioned for the promulgation of the general Constitution guaranteed to Prussia by the Congress of Vienna. The address is dated the 2d of June, and contains the following spirited passage : According to general right, every one is allowed to make his Sovereign acquainted with his doubts, his objections, and re flections, on the decrees and ordinances of the State ; and why should not provincial States be allowed to charge their Deputies, according to their intelligence and their con science, with the office of making propositions and petitions having for their end the amelioration of the institutions now in force? It is this right which we have exercised in presenting through our Deputies4at the last provincial Diet. the petition concerning the States of the kingdom, and we can see in this neither a result of crude theories, nor a culpa kle imitation of foreign manners. It is, Sire, but a pure and simple echo of the ever•memorable promises of his late Majesty the King your father, and of our firm conviction that their ful filment at the present moment would be as opportune as im portant. We could not imagine that by this proceeding w e. were transgressing the limits set by law, but, on the contrary, we were convinced that it would serve to ensure the continuance and ulterior development of the civil and political liberty, pro.. tected by a just and enlightened syitem of administration. We are. still less able to abstain from fulfilling this duty, because, according to the declaration of the recess to the states of East ern Prussia, given at Sans-Souci, the 4th of last October, we could have appealed to the memory of the States of Eastern Prussia on the subject of federal right, and have hoped with confidence that your Majesty would graciously receive the loyal wishes of your subjects, and even the renewal of entreaties which you would not grant on that occasion. THE RAILWAY SUN MAP. The Map is produced by a new mode of stereotyping, called the Gypsographic process, which has been patented by Mr. Woone, a native of Exeter. It has a great ad vantage over the ordinary mode, inasmuch as the artist can draw upon a plate, and this orginal sketch is cast and printed at the ordinary printing machine. In our endeavour to produce a design worthy of public patron age, we have tried many experiments, at a considerable expense, and we trust that the Map now given, although we may hereafter much improve it, will be found to be a very great advance in the.art of surface printing. It is the largest cast plate ever yet printed by the ordinary process. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS, CITY, FRIDAY EVENING. The Funds were higher to-day-, and there was a good business doing in them.

MONEY MA RS ET. - The Committee appointed to cowide, the means best calculated to meet the wants of Government without detriment to the interest of c9mmerce, presented their report on the 7th inst. The Committee recommend the course suggested by us, viz, that the amount required be paid by the sale of 6 per Cent. Stock, and offered to take the whole sum at 71, but suggested that better terms be obtained by public com petition. In pursuance of this Report the Treasury ad- vertised to receive tenders on the 12th instant, when Messrs. Samuel Phillips were declared the highest bidders. they offered to take 4,500 apolsces of 1,000 dol. each at 72 pet cent., payable in the months of May, June, and July, but the Ministers here offer to the extent only of 3,600 apolices, equal to 72 per cent.,2,592,000 dol., and value en sterling, ex at 30} 340,200. Thus are the wants of the Treasury supplied until the month of July inclusive, and the weight being removed, we confid, ntly look for a gradual ame!irration of the Aloney Market.

On the 10th great damage was done at Moscow by a great thunderstorm and hurricane. In a quarter of an hour 250 buildings were un roofed, fences destroyed, and chimneys thrown down. Among the public buildings.that have suffered most are the great Theatre, the Exer cise -house, and St. Mary's Hospital.- The amount of the damage cannot yet be estimated, but it is thought to be very considerable.

HANOVER, JULY 6.—The Hanover Gazette has given for some days past reports of the sit tings of the Chamber, which, with respect to the Second Chamber, are little more than extracts from the protocols. The discussions of the First Chamber, on the Address, or rather the refusal in the first and second debate to accede to the Address of the Second Chamber are more in teresting. After the vote, the Crown Prince rose, and spoke as follows :- 4 , Much has been said of 'constitutional ques tions, and it has even been mentioned that doubts are here and there entertained respecting the validity of the Constitution; it seems that in the Second Chamber allusions have been made to the incompetency of the present Assembly of the States. As an opportunity now offers to ex press my sentiments on this subject, and I wish it may be for the last time, I embrace it, and declare that though I take it for granted that nobody believes that I dO not con sider myself strictly bound to maintain the present constitution, under all the circuit] stances, it is my firm and unalterable opinion that I, as well as my Royal father, am bound to maintain the present constitution, as well the right of the Crown as those of the Estates. Every individual paragraph of the constitution was carefully weighed by , the King my father and me, and no new paragraph was ever exa mined till the preceding had been thoroughly discussed and approved. On occasion of this business, as well as in discussion on other State affairs, I have acquired the conviction that his Majesty the King personally examines evert• matter brought before him, and that the decree issued by the Cabinet received the King's special apixobation, and cannot be issued before they are folly examined by his Majesty." HANOVER, JULY 3.—Persons who are likely to be well informed of the intention of the cabinet, affirm that tho next Assembly of the States wit: not be convoked till the autumn of this year.

Honour to such a man.— Kent Herald. MO RN' NG SUN. sing•ular. fierce that they are some of the most mischiev ous men that ever existed, aid the curse of their fellow-creatures. It is at present the object of the Tory Journals to represent all the difficulties of the country as the result of anal-administration, and to kindle the wrath of the public against the Ministers. We have on more than one occasion insisted on the fact that the distresses and difficulties of the people are not the consequence of maladmi nistration, but of incorrect and unjust legislation. The practical importance of the distinction is very great, and as one or other view is correct, relief may be obtained by changing the men, or can only be obtained by altering the laws. We do not conceal our chagrin that the electors have too generally adopted the Tory view. They believe the laws are good and just, and therefore they have given their support to men who have de clared they shall not be changed ; and have with drawn their confidence from men who affirm that a remedy for our distress and difficulties can only be found in altering the laws. We very much regret the decision of the electors, but if the majority, instead of being a mere measuring cast majority, constituted four-fifths of the House of Commons, we should still maintain, respec fully but firmly, that its decision is equally erro neous, and injurious to the public. The great and pressing difficulty for the Go vernment is the financial deficiency. How has that been brought about by mal-administration ? No persons are more sensible than we are of the folly of wasting public money, but the large al lowance made to the QUEEN by the Whigs had the approbation of the Tories; and the extravagant grant they would have made to Prince ALBERT not having been completed can have had no in fluence on the financial deficiency. It is as easy to say that the Ministers have perpetrated jobs as that the Times is remarkable for its strict ad herence to truth—and both assertion; would be false. We confess to the MONTEAGLE job; but the utmost expense of that was the pension to Sir JOHN NEWPORT, and it was connected with a considerable saving in the Exchequer, made by the Whigs. The Whigs, we admit, have cre ated a great number of Commissions to settle the claims of the slave-owners to compensation —to carry the Factory Act into execution—to carry out the New Poor-law—to execute the Tithe Commutation Act. But most of these are Par liamentary Commissions; they all have im portant duties to perform ; nor has anybody shown that those duties are worthless, or that they could be performed in a more economical manner. Supposing them to have been unneces sary, the whole expense of them would go but a very little way to account for the excess of the expenditure over the revenue. Two extrava gancies the Whigs have undoubtedly been guilty of, which the Tories vehemently reprobate. They have appropriated a sum of money to ex tend education, and they have given up some revenue to facilitate communication. Never will the Tories do the like. The Administration has involved us in ex pense by the assistance given to expel Don CAR LOS from Spain, which, being achieved, and Spain saved from being either the vassal of France, or the tool of Russia, is, according to the ordinary course of State policy, and states men's prudence, a great benefit to England, pur chased at a small cost. The Syrian expedition was another subject of cost, but the Tories have approved of it. Since it was ascertained that M. THIERS had a particular object in view, detri mental to the interests of England, no other objection has been made to Lord PALMERSTON'S policy by the Tories than that he might have spoke the Frenchman fairc.r. But whatever the cost of the expedition, it grew out of the Tory neglect, prior to 1830. The Tories allowed the Turks to be placed at the mercy of Russia, and every subsequent act was the consequence of their policy. They have, accordingly, both pub licly and privatly, approved of the policy of Lord PALMERSTON. We know not how some expedition to China could have been avoided. The seizure of British property by the Chinese authorities was not Lord PALMERSTON'S act, nor provoked by him ; but had he not taken measures to procure redress all England, particularly Tory England, would have rung with reproaches. But the Spanish, the Syrian, and the Chinese expeditions, with the altered relations of France—are the great sources of expense in our army and navy ; and unless the Tories can show that those expeditions were uncalled for, or injurious, it is all nonsense to grumble at the cost. It is not our business, however, to defend the Government from the charge of being costly. We have always inculcated economy, and depre cated that eternal meddling and extension of the sphere of government which makes it more vexatious and more expensive. But th . e'Tories take a different view. They complain. perpe tually that the Government does not do enough, and if their suggestions to extend the Church, to increase the instruments of coercion, to pro voke the Irish, had been attended to, the expen diture would have been increased a million a-year more. Without defending, every act of the Go vernment we affirm that it has fairly and tem perately administered the laws, and that, conse quently, the present difficulties of the Govern ment and the country are owing to bad laws, not to their being badly administered. One of the charges now made against the Mi nisters is that, having had a large majority in the House of Commons for several years, they inexorably maintained the system of protection, and did nothing to remedy the defective legisla tion. The writer who makes the charge must be either ignorant of the history of the Whig Administration or he wilfully mis-states the case. Not now to notice the number of reforms which the Whigs carried, and those which they proposed without being able to carry, we will just remind our readers that during the last ten years the Whigs have been in office it has been a standing reproach to them that they were casting everthing loose and fastening nothing. If they had, in addition to altering the Poor laws, and reforming the municipal corporations, commuting tithes, &c. &c., also proposed a great and sweeping reform in our commercial system, who could have set bounds to the indignation of _ . the Tories, and who can measure the exhaust- less vituperation with which they would have assailed the Whigs But in fact our system of commercial legisla tion, though it be, demonstrably speaking, scien tifically a great error, and, speaking morally, a great crime, was not attended practically and immediately with the disastrous effects which recent sufferings have convinced the public ne cessarily belong to it. In 1828 only, or two years before the accession of the Whigs to office, the present Corn-law was passed, with the approba tion and Fupport of both the great parties of the State. It was certainly opposed in its progress through Parliament by some agriculturists like Mr. BENETT and Lord WESTERN, because it did not give protection enough; by some Liberals, like Mr. HUME and Mr. WHITMORE, because it gave too much; and by Lord KING, whose ex cellent protest we publish elsewhere, as iniquit ous : but both the great parties of Par;iament acquiesced in it. What would have.been said of the Whigs, had they, from a heedless zeal for change, proposed at any time before 1840 an alteration in that great, most erroneous, and most criminal part of our legislation ? At only one period, within a few months after the passing of the Bill, did the price of corn rise to 70s. prior to the year 1838. The years from 1832 to 1836 inclusive, were all good years, prices were .down below 50 5., and the only complaint made against the Corn-law was by the Duke of BUCKINGHAM and Mr. CAYLEY, that it did not give protection enough. Before 1838 it would have been hopelessly im possible for the Ministers to have crone anything with that law, and the manner in which they have now been deserted by Whig landlords, is a complete demonstration that they never had the EXPRESS FROM PAR`fS.
