Sun Office, 112, Strand. - TO CORRESPONDEN TS. We have received (as is unfortunately the case on occa sion of any great political excitement) several letters from Subscribers, complaining of t h e n on-arrival a The Sun with ie important Parliamentary intelli gence of Tuesday. We regret these robberies as much as our readers, and have used every means to discover the offenders, but without effect. They evidently are committed by persons who have access to thePost offices in London or the country, as the papers are re gularly posted here ; but if this abominable and dis graceful system of pilfering is continued, the Post office authorities, for the credit of the establishment, must attempt some remedy by offering rewards for in formation, and instituting the strictest investigation. We need not tell our usual readers that a Second Edi tion of The Sun is published every evening in time for post. HIGH WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE TOMORROW Morning 19 minutos after 10 1 Evening-- 2 minutes after II t's & LONDON: THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 1841. The - country has now before it the Speech dictated by the Waigs, their Address in conformity to the Speech, and the Tory Amendment. They correspond to our ex pectations. The Speech is not so bold as we would wish, and the amendment of the Tories, as we announced on Monday, turns all on their want of confidence in their opponents. _ _ W4atever the well-endowed and sleepy priesthood may believe, because they wish it, and whatever the oli garchy may hope as a means of safety to them, the pre sent is nut an age of mental apathy. Men are unquiet— they suffer, and are agitated. The) look abroad with anxiety for the means of relief, and pant, as Mr. CAR LYLE has said, for a leader. To the uneasy and anxious multitude, the speech, though more bold and mcre com prehensive than Royal speeches usually arc, gives no hope. Does any man feel his heart throb and his eyes glisten as he reads it ? Does it awalcen any emotion? Does it kindle any enthusiasm, or stir up a strong desire to catch the good it holds out in pros pect? We cannot answer in the affirmative. It kindles no generous emotions, and will not make men hurry from the workshop to follow the_ writer of the speech as their guide to safety. It is at best a cold, repulsive, routine document, which has not, never theless, not saved the W higs from the charge of violating official decorum, while it will not rally around them thy, suffering and aspiring multitude. They have not done justice to themselves. The fact that great suffering exists throughout the manufacturing districts is undeniable. It is equally undeniable that trade is painfully checked, and that there is no com pensating prosperity amongst the working agricultu rists. How easy, therefore, would it have been, how graceful, too, how worthy of her MAJESTY, and how ac ceptable to her people, to have put forward their sad and desolate condition as the reason for calling the attention of Parliament to the " revision of the duties affecting the production of foreign countries," and "to the laws regulating the trade in corn." Nothing of the sort is done. The necessity for increasing the public revel nue is put forward as the main reason for proposing an inquiry into the landlords' monopoly. Something, in deed, is said about the effects of the monopoly, but even there the " privations of the people appear as a secon dary consideration to the derangement of the currency and the safety of the Bank of England. That is not the way to treat the people ; for whatever statesmen may think, they have hearts and heads, and understand when they are dealt with like men or like slaves. Increase of revenue ! why the people already complain of Government getting too much, and they can care nothing about measures which are mistakingly put before them, as calculated to take more. If that be the motive and object for abolishing the landlords' mo nopoly, the people will tell the Whigs to effect it if they can, and will leave them to conquer or be defeated by the Tories themselves. Everything which can how be done ought to be, to reconcile the estranged. people to the Government. Last night Mr. DuticomnE presented several petitions to the House of Commons directed against the present state of the representation. Throughout the country meetings are holding, at which resolutions are passed, declaring that the present constituencies, and, of course, the Mo nopolists they elect, are opposed to the . liberties and interests of the nation. Chartism is by no means dead. We grieve much, therefore, to see any means lost of car rying a conviction home to the people that their condi tion really occupies the attention of the Government, and deeply do we grieve to see the Whigs throw away' Such a glorious opportunity, by putting prominently for ward the increase of the revenue instead of the condition of the people as their leading motive for proposing com mercial reform. But what has the Opposition done to repair the faults of the Whigs ? What do Sir ROBERT PEEL and his friends propose ? Do they move an amendment to inform her MAJESTY that as Government exists only for the good of the people, and revenue is only collected to pro mote their prosperity, they cannot think of augment ing the revenue till wages be raised, and the distress of the working classes relieved? Not they. Their amend ment says, in substance, dismiss the Ministers and place us in office. Their only remedy for the national distress is, make us Ministers. If the Whigs have lost an oppor tunity of regaining the affections of the people, the To ries have made an opportunity to insult them. The an swer they gave to Mr. MARK PHILLIPS'S pathetic appeal on behalf of the starving thousands was, we care nothing for them, but we will ask the QUEEN to'dismiss the Whigs. It is true that the Tories in their Amendment talk of consulting the interest, and promoting the welfare of all classes of her MAJESTY'S subjects. But how can mono polists do this? The present Parliament has been elected for the very purpose of overruling the interest of the many, and trampling their welfare into the dust. The majority of the present Parliament is elected on the prin ciple of despising the welfare and interests of all other classes than those of the laadowners. "It was supposed," said the Duke of RICHMOND on Tuesday evening, " that the Ministers coming into office would turn round upon the farmers and refuse them protection, but he, on the part of the landed interest, would say, if they did so they would have them out of office. If they (the Tories) Came forward and offered an Bs. duty, he would tell them that the same men who brought them into power would be the first to thrust them out." The authors of the Amend ment have neither the power nor the will to consult the interest and to promote the welfare of all classes of her MAJESTY'S subjects. They are the slaves of one class, sent to Parliament to promote by legislation its selfish ends, and it is adding insult to neglect and injury to talk in that Amendment which is to turn out the Whigs, about the interests and welfare of all. The bulk of the community, then, has ceased to respect and honour the Whigs, and it has not ceased to despise and hate the Tories. It has no reason to be satisfied with either, and it has no confidence in either. Between it and the ruling classes the gulf is widening every day, and every graceful opportunity, like the present, of fill ing it up, is lost. We regret this for the sake of the country and the sake of the Whigs, who might, without departing from consistency, have charmed the people by putting forward their condition as the reason for sub jecting the landlord's monopoly to investigation. It cannot be otherwise than gratifying to us to find the Corn. laws now become, with one common accord, the general, and indeed almost the only, topic of public discussion. Nor is it less gratifying to find the ultra or extreme principles which we long ago espoused, now be come very prevalent. The Devil's laws, as we years ago denominated them, are now stigmatized by the Ministers of every faith in the empire —except the members of the Established Church, who appear to have a pecuniary in terest in high prices, and in the starvation of the people— as laws contrary to Christianity, contrary to the Provi dence of God, and therefore, as we say, they are the Devil's laws. What those are who support them, it is scarcely seemly in us to say, but the Christian Ministers at the Manchester Conference have proved that they are not Christians. Some of the arguments by which the anti-Christians support these unchristian laws, seem to us unworthy of legislators, to say nothing of Christians. For example, the Earl of RIPON, on Tuesday night, would not allow that our people should have cheap bread, because other coun tries have Corn-laws. The CZAR of RUSSIA, an ignorant stupid despot, meddles with the trade of his slaves, the Monarchs of Germany do the same with theirs, there fore, argues this sapient Earl, we must have a Corn-law in England. Might he not as well say Russian women yet spin with a distaff, all nations have spun with a dis taff, therefore, burn all the spinning mules, and give em ployment to old women. The Peers of England are so mistrustful of the national civilization that they would model the laws of their enlightened countrymen on those, of the northern barbarians. This Earl and the rest of the supporters of the un christiait Corn-laws can see nothing in society but Go vernments, and he and the rest of the Peers continually argue as if Government and society were identical. In a Tory, who has seen society over and over again set aside the laws he wished to support, this is sheer stupi dity, which no experience can teach. Instead of look ing only at Government, let the Peers look to things, and they would see commerce setting at nought Czars and Emperors. The Peers ought to look exclusively to our own people, and if it be just to tax their bread—if it be honest to make one man pay 50 per cent. of his income, and another not, per cent. for' his food—if it be wise to provoke their wrath, why, boldly tax their bread, boldly grind them to poverty, and boldly goad them into madness ; but do not shabbily, meanly, and insultingly plead as an excuse for wrong-doing that the CZAR and the POPE have passed Corn-laws, and that the corn trade is not free in Russia and Rome. What is the barbarian to Englishmen ? If th e P eers wish to be regarded like him, that will be an additional reason for the people to i v r n o a i t up, despise and hate the bread taxe rs . Anot h er argument still insisted on, though we thought all rational is, that it cost s m ore t o raiseraise cornhere therefore, men had than g ab e d we have passed the Corn-law to make it cost more to raise corn here ; but it does not cost more naturally. It costs less ; but, whether more or less, that is such an uncertain matter, depending on so many facts, that it is scandalous to make it an element of legislation._ Yv If it costs more to raise corn in some parts of England it costs less in others. In Ireland there are low tithes and low poor-rates ;in Scotland there are no tithes, and very low poor-rates. The fat vale of Evesham is more fertile than the stony hills of Kent or of Buckinghamshire. Corn is grown cheaper in the Ukraine than in Poland. It is grown cheaper in different countries in different years, according as the season is good in one and bad in the other, and if the difference of price, therefore, be a proper basis of legislation, which we deny in toto, the law ought to be different in different years, different as the corn is grown in the Ukraine or Poland ; and a different degree of protection should be given to the corn grown in England and Scotland, and to corn grown in fertile or sterile land. It is impossible, however, to adjust a law to all these circumstances, which impossibility is a demon stration of the absurdity of legislating at all on the dif ference of price or difference of cost of production in England and other countries. Those, therefore, who argue a great deal about legislation on this basis, should spare their ink or their breath, and look only at the honesty or dishonesty of the law as regards the sub jects of this empire. The happy use made last night by Mr. P. M. STEW ART Of Sir JAMES GRAHAM'S writings has caused the Times to rush to the rescue of the Eight Hon. Baronet with a " we believe Sir JAMES GRAHAM has expressly denied the authorship of this pamphlet." The Times is mistaken. Sir JAMES has deniediteing the author of the pamphlet of . a " Cumberland Farmer," but " Corn aid Currency," is not only avowed by Sir JAMES, he has used it to get reputation for himself. The Times, therefore, is as ignorant as Sir JAMES GRAHAM iS inconsistent. Well and truly did Mr. P.M. STEWART observe, that the Budget which the renegade Baronet is opposing with all his power, as a means of getting back to the Admiralty, was proposed and recommended by Sir JAMES GRAHAM in his pamphlet entitled " Corn and Currency." As the Tory Times, seeking, and unhappily finding, an auxiliary in Lord MELBOUR4E, says that he, " in two or three pithy sentences threw overboard all his Jacobin allies and their arguments," we may be permitted, on the part of those Jacobin allies, meaning the religious and moral men who throughout the empire have lifted up their voices against the Corn-laws, to remind the reader that on this question the authority of Lord MELBOURNE is worth nothing whatever. We shall scarcely, however, be understood, unless we lay the passage from the Times before our readers : It has given us pleasure (says that Journal) to perceive that the Whigs have profited by the lesson which the country has taught them, to this extent at least—that the false pretences, the miserable calumnies, and the blasphemous ribaldry with which they did not scruple to fight their battle out of doors, are now abandoned to the Morning Chronicle and the conven ticle of mock ministers of religion at Manchester. We hear little within the walls of Parliament of cheap bread or mo nopoly, and of the alleged religious bearings of the Corn law question nothing at all. In two or three pithy sen tences, Lord Melbourne threw overboard all his Jacobin allies and their argumen s, not without language which bore a close resemblance to indignation, disgust, and contempt. "I do not charge you, my Lords," said he, " with that charge which is generally brought against you-- I do not charge your Lordships with interested feelings or motives. No man more strongly condemns the language a hick is generally made use of; no man more disapproves the topics and argu melds perpetually introduced in reference to this subject. I do not think these laws are condemned by the Christian reli gion ; I do not think they are contrary to morality ; I do not think they are laws fit only to be eradicated • nor do I think they are the work of those who have had nothing else in view but their own interest and their own objects." While avowing that his opinions upon the subject of the Corn-laws had under gone a change (" everybody," he naively observed, "was in the habit of changing opinions." Lord MELBOURNE is just as much in error in now throw ing overboard his so called Jacobin allies—they being the ministers of religion throughout the empire—as he was when he denounced as a madman him who should propose to remove all protection, alias, all robbery, by law; and just as much in error as when he deprecated agita ting Corn-law repeal as shaking society to its foundations. The real and mischevious agitators are Lord MEL BOURNE and his Tory allies, who pass and uphold laws to violate the right of property in others in order to fill their own pockets. The advocates of the Corn laws, which set class against class, and not those who seek to get rid of the injustice, are the persons who shake so ciety to its foundation. Lord MELBOURNE may repu diate the leadership of that earnest and masculine party, acting, and resolved to act, on the principles of religion and morality, which is now happily growing up in every part of this morally distracted empire, and which is destined—in spite of frivolous and rapacious noble men, and arrogant, extortionate priests—to redeem it from destruction. Lord MELBOURNE may re pudiate the leadership of this party, of which he is wholly unworthy ; but his indignation, disgust, and contempt, if 'he expressed such emotions, of which we doubt, will be regarded, like his impatience at the " madmen," and his indignation at " the agitators," as the hasty emotions of a shallow, unreflecting, and, on this subject, very ignorant courtier. Lord MELBOURNE, though placed by chance at the head of our party, was neverithe depository of its principles, nor worthy of being its leader; and •ae shall not much regret a change which will at least render it impossible for him again to mis guide a cause he is as far now from comprehending as he was the Session before. last. The French journals of Tuesday have all reached us, but most of the important news which they contain was anticipated in the afternoon edition of yesterday's Sun. We have given in another part of this day's impression, a very important speech, delivered by M. GUIZOT, at a public dinner given to him by his constituents at Liseux, on:Monday last, which we recommend to the attentive peru sal of our readers. M. GUIZOT gives a calm and dignified account of the events which produced the isolation of France, and attributes to the personal feelings of the KING, and the excellence of the French constitution, the maintenance of the peace of Europe. The exceeding mildness with which the French Minister alludes to the conduct of the Great Powers, and the guarantees which he offers of the peaceable disposition of France, will produce a - very salutary impression on the public mind of Europe. . The journals are still writing about the census, but w e find nothing at all new either in their facts or argu ments. It was rumoured in Paris on Tuesday that Lord ELIOT would succeed Mr. ASTON as Ambassador. Such an ap pointment might well alarm ESPARTERO, for who has forgotten Lord ELIOT'S partisan admiration of Don CARLOS Prince Milosch was received by the Emperor of Austria on the 16th inst. at Schcenbrunn. Prince and Princess Metternich have arrived at Jnnannis berg. The Prince is stated to be in excellent health and spiri s. The Baron de Barante was to leave Cronstadt on the 20th inst. in the Danae frigate, and is expected to arrive in Paris about September 5. A Berlin correspondent of the Leipsic Gazelle says that M. Thiers has visited most of the literary celebrities of the capital, especially Messrs. Schlegal, Savignv, and Rauch. Count Bresson had given a grand dinner, to which most of the eminent literary and scientific men of the capital were invited to meet M. Thiers. Two days ago, as a party of students were passing in a boat through one of the locks of the canal of the Marne, near Saint- Maur, a young female, who was with them, becoming sud denly giddy, fell into the water and disappeared in the eddies of the luck stream. A medical student, heedless of danger to himself, immediately jumped overboard and succeeded, by plunging several times, in rescuing her. from a watery grave. She was senseless; but on being taken into a neighbouring house, and carefully attended to, was restored to life. The son of Al. K., an engraver of merit, after leading a dissipated life in Paris went abroad, and had not been heard of for a long time, till a few days ago his father received a letter from him, dated Valparaiso, in which the young man stated that, overwhelmed with shame and repentance, he had entered a Dominican convent in that city. Al. K. was so deeply affected by this intelligence that he became melancholy, and two days after walked to a distance from Paris, and when in the middle of a field shot himself dead with a pistol. The official part of the Moniteur to-day publishes an ordi. nance announcing various nominations in several Courts of Justice. We have received this morning the Moniteur Algerian of the 16th of August. It publishes the following decree : " The Lieutenant-General Governor-General of Algeira. " DECREE. " Art. 1.

One passage in it contrasts advantageously for the philosophic character of the French statesman with the intemperate allusion to France in Lord Palmerston's address to the electors of Tiverton. M. Guizot, with equal good sense, good feel ing, and good taste says I could not forgive myself were I to let drop one word which might ferment, or keep up between France and England, or between France and Europe, worn-out prejudices or bitter feelings. To every sensible man, to every sincere friend of European peace, such language must appear a grievous wrong. Situated as I am, it would be to sin against justice, pru dence, and tact. I will not incur the reproach." Such conciliatory language from the mouth of a French Minister of M. Guizot's high character, will greatly tend !o allay those suspicions which the warlike preparations of France havefor some time aw,akened in the public mind of Europe. The Moniteur Parisien states that it has reason to believe the Government will not prosecute the Journals seized at the Post-office on Sunday. This is a strange announcement, and speaks strongly for the conduct of the Ministry. Either the Journals seized were guilty of a breach of the laws, or they were not. If they were guilty it is the duty f the Government to punish them, not by seizure, but by prosecution before the ordinary tribunals ; if they were not guilty againSt the laws then was it a most tyrannical stretch of the Crown preroga tive to seize them on any pretext whatever. • The Commerce has a rumour to which we attach no credit, that Baron Pasquier, President of the .Chamber of Peers, has resisted the taking of the,, census in his private domicile. M. Pasquier is an old ret, capable of no such stretch of public virtue. When he is found opposing any, measure of the Government it may be taken for granted that another royal sun is about to break upon and illumine the poli ,tical horizon of France. When M. Pasquier deserts the Court the Orleans House will, indeed, be tumbling about the ears of its supporters. The King and Queen of the Belgians left Ostend on Tuesday for the Chateau of Eu, in Normandy, where the Royal family of France is staying. The two Courts were to proceed to Paris, and thence to St. Cloud. King Leopold wishes to arrange with his father-in-law the basis of a commercial treaty between France and Bel gium, and to talk over some projected family alliances. .Letters from Constantinople of the 4th instant state positively that the insurrection in Candia is entirely suppressed. In a letter from Alexandria of the 25th July we find the following statement:—" Trade here is in a sad state. On one side proprietors have had their strongest and most able workmen taken away to be employed in the fortifications, under pretence that they below , to the Pacha and Ibrahim. The result is, that the landed pro prietors cannot even get in their harvest." P.ARLIAIVIENTMLY. The House of Lords did not sit last 'night. The Commons were almost exclusively occupied with debate on the Ad dress. Lord PALMERSTON was not in his place to answer Mr. ROEBUCK'S announced question, and the IPLEop affair therefore was not mooted. Mr. EWART resumed the adjourned debate, and was followed by Mr. HAivin.ToN. Mr. WARD made some happy allusions to the influence of the weather over policy, and regretted for the sake of Ireland the probable change of the Government. Mr. SurroN obtained from Lord J. RUSSELL an ex planation that it was Lord CANTERBURY'S conduct at the Privy Council which led him to oppose his re-elec tion as Speaker. Dr. BOWRING and Mr. M. P. STEWART both spoke on the Liberal side. The other chief speakers were Mr. COBDEN, whose speech is universally praised, Mr. BAILLEY, Mr. BROTHERTON, Mr. H. GRATTAN, and Mr. HASTIE. At twelve o'clock the Debate was again Ad journed. The House continued full the greater part of the evening, and towards the close was much crowded. Mr. COBDEN made an impression on the House, as an earnest and sincere man always will ; and his manly de claration, that he will always call the Corn-laws a bread tax, astounded and abashed those who would be gentlemen if they were not plunderers. They obviously began to be ashamed, and one or two more resolute and honest men in the House like Mr. COBDEN, will make them give up the Bread-tax as a detected thief casts away his stolen goods, in the hope to escape worse consequences. The human heart cannot be deaf to the voice of justice when resolutely lifted up, and a very few Hon. Members who should always speak of the Corn-law as it deserves, would ensure its abolition. PUIMIC CPINXO az. The Times is slowly waking to the discovery that electioneering corruption is notorious, and that a prompt and decisive stop should be put to such an ini quitous system. If our contemporary grounds his as sertion ou the bribery that - took place at the late elec tions under the especial patronage of the Tories, he has ample warrant for what he says, and we cordially agree with him in the truth of these remarks :—" There never was a House of Commons, in the election of which bribery was so universal. The greater part of the electors—the whole, in truth, of the electoral body created by the boasted Parliamentary Reform— consider the elective franchise as the mere means of serving themselves and their families—as an article for sale, to be obtained by the highest bidder. The awful crime of perjury has been thought nothing of." This is giving the Tories as hearty a slap in the face as Mr.: Roebuck gave them the other night in the Com mons. But this is not the first, nor will it be the last, blow that the Times will give the Tories. It is noto riously a slippery party organ ; has strange fits, not of manly independence, but of capricious waywardness ; and will leave its friends in the lurch at the time that they most calculate on its support. As the Baron of BrLiwardine said to his guests, " Beware the hear !" so we say to the Tories, " Beware the Tines !" The Morning Post accuses the Liberal party of being divided among -themselves, and hints at the same time at the unanimity that exists among the Tories. The unanimity of these latter is yet to be proved. As yet they have had no time to exhibit discord. But when Lord Stanley comes prominently into action with some pet crotchet or other, such as his absurd "Irish Arms Bill," we shall confidently expect to see some very pretty quar relling among the Tories. The following are our Contem • porary's words :—" While the Conservative body are re proached with having divisions among them, but exhibit none, the party which takes the liberty of making the re proach-is palpably and practically divided upon what is at preient considered the great question of the day, namely, the law which restricts the importation. of foreign corn. It would be great injustice to some of the opponents of the present Corn-law to confound them with the rabble of revolutionary blasphemers who make such a noise about repeal,' and yet when Miristerialisti sum up their forces they reckon all sorts of opponents of the Corn-laws as belonging to their party." The Chronicle says :—" It is a palpable fallacy that the displacement of the present by a Tory Ministry is essential to the satisfactory results' of a legislative deliberation' on the Corn-laws. Those results cannot be rendered one jot more or less satisfactory by the Chris tian name of a Secretary of State being Robert instead of John. The satisfactoriness must be, if anywhere, in the results themselves. If those results be wise, just, and useful; if they tend to revive trade, to pron:ote steadiness of price and demand, and to exonerate the commu nity from the class impositions of monopoly, then they will be satisfactory, whatever Ministers be in ; and if not, then they will be unsatisfactory, whatever parties be out. No Government can make a heavily taxed loaf satisfactory to the toiling inil lions. No confidence' can feed the half-famishing." We agree with the spirit of the above remarks, that a Ministry should be tested by its measures rather than by its men ; but if these latter, from mingled prejudice or self-interest, are notoriously incompetent to the task of just. and enlightened legislation, then. it is fair to pre.. dune thatthe measures thy bring forward will partake of their own incompetency. Men do not gather grapes from thorns, nor figs from thistles, nor .cari a liberal re form. in the Corn-laws be expected from .a Ministry whose majority was gained by the Ch . andos clause, and whose chief supporters are those who are entrusted in maintaining the abuses of the Corn-laws. The following is from the Herat :—", That portion of the Queen's Speech which emanates from the Foreign office is quite characteristic of Lord Palmerston. .Its chief assertion is a stupid, because. a notorious, falsehood. The temporary estrangement of France is not at an end, and the best understanding does not prevail among all the great Powers of 'Europe. Lord Pal merston deals only with verbal declarations or written assurances, while the rest of mankind look to actions and realities, and judge from practical and material results. That Marshal Soult and M. Guizot desire to place France on terms of perfect amity with England we have no doubt ; but were the greatest obstacle thereto removed—which is the savage and hos tile feeling, revived by the Treaty of July, towards this country, entertained by nearly all classes of Frenchmen—there would still remain an insuperable difficulty, and that is—Lord Palmerston himself.". The Worcester Chronicle thus alludes to the late Man chester Conference :—" Prayer meeting' may engage a due share of attention, but awe is leisure also for • Corn law Conferences. No one, except such as profit by the corn monopoly, who has read the valuable report of the proceedings of this Conference in the Morning Chronicle can justly accuse the ministers who composed it of misap plying their time, or hint that they had better been em ployed in prayer. Action is the test of sincerity." The Stafford Gazette, alluding to the Queen's Speech, says, " Ministers have, in the Royal Speech, raised the question of the budget. They have, in that Speech, presumed to dictate measures to the nation, though by the angry voice of that nation they have been pro nounced unworthy of confidence, and utterly incapable of guiding the reins of Government. The object of this hitherto unheard-of proceeding is the hope of embarrass ing the Conservatives in the formation of their reply." ELECTIONEMIUNC.. According to the resolution of last session for regu• lating the order in which election petitions should be taken into consideration, the names of the places were drawn in the House of Commons last night from a box. They Great Marlow, Nottingham, and Weymouth. At Bradford, the two candidatQs in the field are Mr. W. Busfield, of Upwood, who represented the borough in the last Parliament on Whig principles ; and Mr. W. Wilberforce, Conservative, late Member for Hull. Mr. Busfield was.enly four votes lower on the poll than the late Mr. Lister. AGRICULTURAL. The accounts of the Maidstone, Ef p plantations continuo unfavourable. Though the goidings are I'6 bine in the Weald, yet the grapes on the heavy soils .are short. The crops are, the most part, expected to be small. At Brenchley, however, Horsmonden, Watering bury, and Farnham, the crops will be rich if some sunny days ensue. In Berkshire, on the high and light lands, an immense breadth of 'oats has been cut and carried ; so also the wheats, which are pretty free from smut. In Somersetshire, the heavy rains of late have greatly rotted the teasel crop ; so that good judges say there will not be a peck per acre cut, and those will be of wretched quality. LAW AND POLICE. • Caroline Williams, a woman of dissolute habits was brought before the Magistrate at Marlborough-street Police-office yesterday, on a serious charge of assaulting a girl of the name of Seymour, in Oxford-street, be tween four and five that morning. The poor creature's dress was saturated with blood, and as she was scarcely able to speak from exhaustion, Mr. Maltby directed that she should be conveyed to a surgeon's shop in the neigh bourhood, whither he proceeded, 'and took down her de positions. It appeared a petty quarrel about a glass of gin, provoked by the prisoner, that led to the melancholy result. The surgeon considered her in extreme danger from. internal haemorrhage, and the prisoner was re manded till Wednesday. At the Liverpool Assizes an action was brought against the proprietors of the Woodside Ferry by Walker and others, Birmingham jewellers, for damage caused to a quantity of jewellery, weighing some hundreds of pound., and of the value - of 8,0001., concealed in the trunk of a carriage, which on being landed at the slip at Liverpool, ran back into the water. The salt water had got into the trunk, and seriously injured the watches and jewellery, causing a, loss of 2041., and besides 71. lOs. for injury done to the carriage. Verdict for the plaintiff, damages 211/. 10s. THE.EITR.ICAL. The erection of a bust or statue to the memory of the late Mrs. Siddons, in Westminster Abbey, will, it is hoped, be soon effected. Subscription -books are open for the purpose at all the chief bankers. COURT-FASHIONABLE. The. Duke of Montrose arrived in Belgrave-square, on Monday last, from Scotland. Viscount Morpeth will leave town in the course of the ensuing week for Dublin. Viscount Howick has joined his Viscountess at Howick Hall, Northumberland. Viscount Beresford's attack of paralysis was no better yesterday, and Drs. Watson, Latham, and Brodie, were in attendance. MISCELLANEOUS. A correspondent in the Morning Advertiser states as a positive fact, that two hundred people die annually of starvation in London alone ! To-day is the anniversary of the birth of Prince Al bert, who completes his twenty-second year, having been born in 1819. It is the anniversary also of the celebrated battle of Cressy, which was fought in 1346. On Tuesday the Collingwood, of 80 guns, was launched from the Royal dockyard at Pembroke. She is built on the same principle as the Vanguard, but is six feet longer. The vessel was christened by Lady Jackson. Two officers of the Life Guards were yesterday fined 51. each by the Brentford Magistrates, for throwing detonating balls from the windows of a carriage, while passing through that town ! This is a striking exem plification of the march of mind in the upper classes. The sixth anniversary festival of the East Surrey Conservative Society was celebrated yesterday at the Horns, Kennington. The speeches were of average dull ness and prolixity. The steam-boats brought down nearly a thousand persons to Margate on Saturday last. Yesterday morning a destructive fire broke out in some farm-buildings on the land of Mr. Miller, at Lovel Heath, near Crawley, by which seven horses were de stroyed. nmuouns or THM DAY. Sir ;Tames Graham is to resume the place which he at one time held under the •Whigs, and become First Lord of the Admiralty ; and Sir William Follett will be Attorney-General. Sir Frederick Pollock, of course, must be provided for. Has Lord Abinger been keeping the chief seat in the Court of Exchequer warm for him to the anonyance of his son-in-law ? It is stated that Sir Thomas Troubridge, who for several years past has upheld the Ministerial cause at Sandwich, is about to vacate his seat, upon his appoint ment to the government of South Australia. The Tories are moving heaven and earth to force on a division this evening. They have no wish to discuss the great questions which agitate the country, and be sides, have a good motive for hastening the second " no confidence" vote. All the Tory Members had been sworn in yesterday, except five, while there are twenty six Liberals who .have not yet come up to town. The minority in the House, however, will manfully do their duty, and not suffer the discussion to be burked. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. FRANCE. PARIS, WEDNESDAY.—The census is being taken in Paris and other great towns very quietly, the dumb op position of closed doors being passed over without notice by the Commissioners. It is reported that an Ex-Deputy at Lille had been arrested for some act of an anti-census nature. The speech delivered at Lisieux, by M. Guizot„is much animadverted on by the Paris papers. The Courrier: Francais states that M. Humann was determined to bring out the loan in October. _ _ _ M. Tobler, the - Consul of Toscany in Algiers, had failed for a sum of 800,000 florins. M. Guizot had been elected President of the Council General of Calvados. The Council General of the mouths of the Rhine had declared in favour of the legality of the census.

From Madrid we leant by letters of the 18th, that no insurrection in favour of Queen Christina has ever been thought of, and that she has no longer any political im portance in the country. The total abolition of tithes in Spain will ruin many of the great families. Madrid Bourse. —Five per Cant. 23i cash. THE LEVANT MAIL. We have received the Levant mail, with Constanti nople, Alexandria, and Smyrna dates of the 7th, and of Malta, of the 16th. It is officially announced that the Candian insurrection is at an end, the insurgents having accepted the amnesty offered by Tahir Pacha, and sur rendered to Mustapha Pacha. A new militia has been organised at Constantinople, by which one hundred thousand men are added to the effective force of the em pire. The expedition for Tunis and Tripoli is nearly ready for sea. several troops having been embarked. Our private letters state that the destination of the fleet is positively for Tunis, and that much difficulty is antici pated on the part of the French Government. The latest intelligence from Candia, brought by the Malta papers of the 15th, comes down to the 4th. A few insurgents still held out in the mountains of Sphakia, but the rest of the island had submitted. The Sultan had reduced the tribute to be paid by Me hemet Ali from 40,000,000 to 30,000,000 of piastres. Said Bay, the grandson of the Pacha, continued to be the obect of the most delicate attention. The Sultan's health was improving, and he had of late frequently appeared in public. Ali Boy, an Attache of the Ottoman Lega tion in London, arrived at Constantinople on the 4th in stant, having been sent thither by Chekib Effendi with the protocol signed by the Conference on the 13th of July, which was to have been immediately ratified and returned to London. A British man of war„ the Implacable, has been sent from Malta to observe the French g.eet at Tunis. A case . of plague had, been reported at Pera. Sir John Al'Neil has sailed for Trebisond. Colonel Barnett and Mr. Drummond Hay are daily expected to sail for Alex andria. EGYPT. Our private correspondent in Alexandria writes on the 6th, that the tribute had been reduced to 15,000,000 of piastres. The Calcutta and Rodney were still off Alex andria, exercisin g ; the crews at their guns. The Paella was alarmed at their presence, but had declared that he would not surrender the Syrian soldiers to Colonel Napier without a direct order Trom the Sultan. There appeared to be no disposition at Alexandria to execute the last hatti-scheriff, or that of Gulhane, the strictest monopoly existing in all commercial tram actions. SYRIA. The Smyrna Journal of the 9th describes Syria as completely pacified, but our direct advices from Beyrout of the 24th ult. represent the country as in a state Of complete anarchy. In Lebanon the various Emirs were contending . for sovereignty ; part of the people had de clared against Emir Kasim, in favour of the Emirs Abbas or Soliman, while others insisted on the recal of ; the old Emir Beschir. There were two British ships of war of the line, two frigates, one brig, and two steamers before Beyrout, on the 24th. Trade was at a complete stand. The Bedouins: near Aleppo had plun dered a caravan, which was conveying provisions and other necessaries to the two English steamers in the Euphrates. M.- Bourra, the 'French Consul dismissed by M. Thiers, had returned to Beyrout. Letters from Smyrna of the 9th announce the arrival of M. Lynch, Commander of the Euphrates expedition, on his way to Beles. The number of houses consumed by the fire of the 20th ult. exceeded 12,000, and the loss was estimated at 2,000,000/. sterling. GREEcE. They write to us from Athens on the 10th inst. that the new Ministry having threatened to resign, the King had agreed to some concessions. M. Piscatory, the French Envoy, returned from Constantinople on the 9th. The Candiot insurrection being considered at an end, the revolutionary Committee formed at Spezzia had been dissolved. Lords Desart and Ranelagh left for Constantinople on the Bth: Admiral Ommanney still remained at Corfu on the 10th with the Britannia, Howe, and Vanguard, but was shortly expected to sail fir Athens.

'f he meeting at the London-tavern to-day is, perhaps, one of the largest ever held by the shareholders in this Company, and from the fact `of there being two parties, the stickers in office and the opposition, the debates have been mere animated than usual of meetings of this kind.

OLD COURT William Bradford, aged 56, described as a butcher, was indicted for the ‘N iltul murder of Ann Bradford, his wife, The Grand Jury ignored the bill for the capital charge, but found one for manilaughter. Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Esp;...cco_ conducted the prosecution. The prisoner was undefended. Margaret Miller stated that she was servant at the Black Swan public-house, Rosemary-lane. Saw the prisoner on the 3d of August, about four o'clock. He was drunk. His wife came into the house in a few minutes afterwards. She was sober. She said to the prisoner, shall I take your beer home, and he said . yes. She then went out. The pri soner remained behind. After she had gone he said to the witness, that goo:I-for-nothing old woman, 1 will either murder her or do for her. Thomas Maynard, police-officer 74 11, was in Wentworth street on the day in question at the house of the prisoner. It had a small shop. There was a crowd round the door. The windows were broke, and the goods of the shop rolling out. Saw the pri soner inside. Asked him if he knew a female that waq outside that was making a noise. He said he did ; it was his wile. Witness said, why don't you let her in? He said he would not, for she had threa'ened to cut his head open with the tongs. Witness said, " nonsense, he would prevent all that." He said, " is you request it, I will do so." Asked the woman if she would be quiet, but ahe made no answer. The prisoner opened the door, and she went on in a very violent manner. She was very drunk at the time. About nine o'clock the next morning was in Wentworth-street again, and met the pri soner. Asked him him how he settled the matter, and he said his wife was very ill. Witness said he hoped he had not ill used her. He said lam tery sorry, but I. did strike her in the face in the night ; but he did not think it would cause all that injury, as he would not have her die for a thousand pounds, for if she should, he would be hanged fur it. Further evidence was given, which left no doubt that the husband inflicted the blow. The Learned JUDGE summed up, and the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, but recommended him to mercy on account of the strong provocation he had received. The prisoner was then sentenced to fcur months' impr;son ment and hard labour. NEW COURT. George Lilly Johnson was indicted for stealing sixty-two pound of lead, the property of Sir Matthew Wyat. Mr. Phillips appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Clarkson defended the prisoner. William Ellis said he was clerk of the works in the employ ment of Sir Matthew Wyat, the eminent sculptor. On the 17th of July last, went into a yard attached to some new buildings which Sir Matthew was erecting near Hyde Park, when he saw the prisonrr in the workshop, and suspecting his honesty from previous circumstances, he caused him to be searched, wnen a kind of girt was found strapped round his loins, surported by straps over the shoulder. ; to the girt were ingeniously attached nails, so as to support a great weight between it and the person, and by this means the rri soner had contrived to secrete the property named in the indict menLi Sir Matthew Wyat employed four plumbers, to tine of whom, named Jackson, the prisoner was al•prenticed. Mr. CL RICSON, for the defence, called _ _ Jeorge Jackson, who stated that he was a plumber, residing in Queen-street, Edgware-road, and on the day when the pri soner was first charged with the robbery he was standing out side the workshop, which was scarcely snore than 10 feet square, and in his opinion no person could have taken the property in the manner in which it was stated to have been done. The prisoner was found Guilty and sentenced to be im prisoned for one.year, and kept to hard labour. George Brown was indicted for stealing fifteen sovereigns from the person of Thomas Hunt. The prosecutor deposed that he was a cotton spinner belong ing to Manchester. On the 3d inst. he was walking through Flea-street, when he met the prisoner, with whom he entered into conversation, and went into a public-house in Chancery lane. The prisoner said he came from Warrington, and was about taking a shop in London. In about half an hour after they entered the house a third party came in, and as if accidentally, spilt some ale, for which he appeared to pay, but the prisoner refused to allow him to do so, and showed him some money to prove that they were quite independent, and u-ged him (the prosecutor) to do the same. The man who came in pulled out some money from his pocket and said he would pay for all the ale they could drink. Soon after he began to talk of the liability of strangers to be taken in by the London sharpers, and desired him to be sure that his money was safe, as they did not wish him to loose anything in their company. The prisoner then said, here is some paper, roll up what ever money you may have about you. Witness did so, and the prisoner pretended to put it into his (prosecutor's) fob for safety, They then walked out, and prosecutor was sent to get some cigars, and on his return found the other two gone, and instead of fifteen soveregns, which he rolled up, he found six halfpence. 111 r. BALLA NTINE, for the defence, cross-examined the wit ness at great length, but nothing was elicited to shake the prin cipal facts of the case. The RECOILDER said, for the security of the less crafty and guilty portion of the community, it was necessary that the pri soner should be removed to a place where his ingenuity would have less scope than in London. He should, therefore, sentence him to be transported for ten years. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, WEDNESDAY.—The unpropitious state o f the leav weather this morning prevented any of the Roya l an al y .

A grand droner was given on Monday last, by the con stituents of M. Guizot, at Liseux, in the department of the Calvados, of which place he is the representative in the Chamber of Deputies. It was attended by all the principal inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood; and passed off with the utmost harmony and good feeling. The Mayor of Liseux presided, and, in answer to the toast of M. Guizot's health, given by that functionary, accompanied by a handsome eulogium on his public and private character, his Excellency M. Guizot made the follow:ng speech : In truth, gentlemen, 1 cannot reply to the honourable and flattering expressions which you have just heard—expressions the value of which are increased in my eyes by the Wes merits of him who pronounced them. Allow me , to see therein the frank expression of that sympathy which has sub sisted between us during the last twelve years, and that has remained unchanged through all the varying circumstances which have 'naturally owe.' ed to divide men's minds before and after a great revolution. Gentlemen, far from estranging us from each other, it has united us 'even more closely. Many of you may still recollect that ten 'years lack in this same place I addressed you, and stated my political views. Such a meeting as then' took place, such a public discussion all these forms of flee government were at that time a novelty and cause of astonishment. Yet already how natural' do they seem? What a proof exists iu thia of the progress of our institutions. I congratu late you and myself, gentlemen, upon the result. I consider it as a great honour to have from the first accepted and wel comed openly and completely these powerful institutions. I have confidence in them and faith in them. I respect and love them. The events which have passed before; our eyes, and which do not permit us to doubt of their worth, have twice saved the country. Previous to 1830, these in stitutions sufficed for the defence of our liberties. Since 18 30 they_ have effectually preserved us from anarchy. We' may boldly say that our •constitutional monarchy has gone trium phantly through the trial. It has the right to govern us; for in a few years it has met and satisfied the most diverse, the most contrary wants and necessities of society. A year a g ° France was very anxious and very excited. Great nli" trust and great irritation on both sides. A revolution was . almost in prospect, and let no legitimate motive for such a war ;no great national interest to ors or counsel it. We had a foreign policy more less .able. o more othi no:: from less which fortunate, ,N.ar boluongdhetrstohheraev,e resulted. .there vF;r * iain b beer : was war the wish nor the interest o f th e coun try. imminent, so difficult was it to render appieent did not desire it, nor did Europe. And yet worst.eme the - genuine wishes and interests of the country,- and to raise it above the superficial passions and prejudices which agita ted usl How have we been extricated from so critical a situation ? The King, waking a firm use of his prerogative, cha n g ed his Cabinet ; and at the same time, acting up to the spirit of the charter, he carried before the Chambers that great question of peace ant war which, for his own part, he had already re solved in his mind, and within the limits of his power. The were new Cabinet appealed in the Chambers to the fullest discussion and publicity, a publicity which appeared excessive to many sensible minds, and contrary to good Government habits. From . all this, gentlemen, has there resulted one of those sudden and violent re-actions which carry 'from. one extreme to another the policy and conduct of Governments and countries? Has any great interest of the country been sacrificed to a lesser one?_, In reject-. ing war at all price have we flung ourselves into the system 01 peace at all price, as the antagonists of the Cabinet, have so_ often tried to prove ? Not in the least. All the interests o.! the country have been amply provided for ;,its dignity as, weR as its prosperity—its force as well as its repose; and there suit has been that policy of armed peace and ten porat `lsola a tion which has prevailed in the Government asn•thesdelibe• rations of the Chambers. This is the true policy of the;}s s , te milieu, of which at length the wisdom as ieknowledgl but of which it has been predicted that it couldeu neither endure nor succeed. But it has both . lasted and succeeded. Peace has been maintained without Any sacri fice of dignity. The isolation of France exists no' more , but not without having lasted long enough for all the purposes de sired, awl upon conditions perfectly compatible with the bbnour oc the country. Here you will, I trust, approve my- reserve. There are controversies which ought not to be provoked, facst. which ought not to -be discussed, save by the Chl mber; constitutionally charged with debating them. shall also be wanting to my duty in this respect, and au. wound also abstain from every expression likely to the susceptibilities of any foreign Government or niticf : I should not forgive myself, were Ito let drop one wor l d n w d h . s t might foment or keep up between France and between France and Europe, worn-out prejudißce7oar. d of feelings. To every sensible man, to every sincere filen vons European peace, such language must appear a S" 4e _ tic _ wrong. Situated as I am, it would be to sin against Jul v. bitter prudence, and tact. I will not incur the reproach. will limit myself to resuming the simple result of the policy has prevailed, and the lesson which it teaches us. F r ance pss been enlightened and tranquillized. She comprehends that neither' her honour or interest required more than precau tionary tionary armaments and a temporary isolation. Europe h ,a . been warned' and reassured—reassured by the :v i t dence of our pacific intentions, and the loyalty i tri, which our acts have accorded with our intentions; warnea. "which . that France will never allow herself to be towed along by a policy not her own, but will separate herself decidedly from what she dces not approve, without, nevertheless, rushing to the extremity of war. Aware of the ineonveniencies resulting; to all the world from the isolation of France from the policy of Europe, it must be admitted that a general good understand-. ing is for the interests of all. It is thus that a very critical and a very serious situation, as far as our foreign affairs are con cerned, V has been put an end to. And this result has bee¢ attained by a sc. upulous respect for our institutions, and by their regular development. At home, and as far as domes tic policy is concerned, the merit of these institutions hal been rendered more manifest and conclusive. Whatis awa' passing before our eyes shows this fully. The events of last year, gentlemen, have imposed heavy burdens upon us, some temporary and likely to cease with the situation which caused them ; others more permanent, for they proceed from the ne cessity of restoring our military establishments, too long neglect- i ed, upon a good footing. OLliged to provide for these charges, Government feels, at the same time, the necessity of bringing back the Budget within normal conditions—in other words, to restore the balance between the revenue and the expenditure. Credit is a powerful means, but at the same time one that is delicate, and requires cautious management. A Loan ought not to be had recourse to except in extraordinary and pressing , circumstances. The permanent receipts of taxes ought to meet or- dinary expenses. At the present time there are elementary max ims which must guide every wise Government. In this situation what has the Finance Minister done? He has advatteed measuree already announced and sanctioned by the law, and which have for their only aim, first, to ensure the equal repartition amongst the tax-payers of existing interests; secondly, to enable the Chamber to legislate with a full knowlege of facts in all that relates 0 ' the voting of these taxes. Can aught be snore legitimates Gentlemen, er more consonant with justice, and the necessi ties of a good financial administration? And yet loud cla mours have been raised, net amongst you, Gentlemer—not amongst those who take truth as the basis of their judgments — but amongst a population less enlightened and less informed with regard to public affairs and the condition of a Govern ment. Errors, absurd and strange, founded on popular pre-.. judice, have been circulated ; and at the same time the factions have endeavoured to make the most of these, and turn them to their own advantage. They have endeavoured, out of thew prejudices, to give rise to resistance ; and, out of resistance. insurrection. The third error of the people, and the hypo critical efforts of factions, are the true causes of the late disorders. How has the Government opposed these disor ders? By two means only:: the simple execution of dm ' laws, firm and temperate, mild even in the form—powerful but patient in demonstraeion ; the other means have been full discussion and explanation of the aim of these mea sures, in order to dispel popular errors respecting them. Look at what is this moment passing. The Municipal Councils have assembled throughout France ; the Depart mental Councils are about to assemble. Fran in • at this moment full of elective bodies, debating, approv'' ing, or condemning these very measures. And is the midst. of this universal examination, Government is engaged in res_- pressing disorder, in appealing to public opinion and to legal iorce, in order to make the law respected, taking care at the same time to enlighten men's convictions. Is not such a spec• taele a striking homage to our institutions ? Does it noeprove that Government places its lull reliance, and seeks its support in the'complete and energetic action of these institutions. phis action alone is salutary and efficacious. In order that our institutions should attain their aim, all the powers com posing them should act, together, each in its pant and within its limits. Every weakness, each act of hesitation of ;one of these great parts of the state, must disarrange the whole polio tical machine. It cannot be denied, that at the present time a tendency to weaken one of the great powers of The state, viz., the monarchic principle, by sapping its two foundations -- iroyalty and administration. When I say royalty, I mean the nstitution and the royal person, the Crown and the - King. la s a fundamental maxim of law that the King can do no svrong• The King is inviolable, ministers are responsible ; every fault of government is imputable to the councillors of the Crown, not to the Crown. Such is the adniirable principle which guarantees order and liberty. But to the maxim of the King doing 400 wrong, it is sought to substitute that of the King doing nothing -j-an idea as false in right as in fact, and ener vating royalty under pretence of covering it. Fortunate it has been for our country; that Royalty has not been al lowed thu ; • to become enervated , and that it has per formed in our affairs the part which belongs to it.
