LONDON SATURDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 19, 1842. It is scarcely necessary for us to recommend to the notice of our readers the temperate and able speech, as it was described by Lord JOHN MANNERS, with which Mr. VILLIERS last night introduced his motion for the total repeal of the Corn-laws. The Hon. Member is well aware that, after the declaration of Lord JOHN RUSSELL in favour of the principles of protection, know ing, too, as he must, the secret opinions of many of his supporters, that he has in the House of Commons very up-hill work. If only that House were concerned, we should think, with Sir CHARLES NAPIER, that the motion, as every person knOws beforehand what will bo the result, is a waste of the time of the House ; but the public are to be considered—the public require to learn at this crisis, who are the friends of free trade, and who are its enemies ; they require to know now, when such evil consequences have resulted from the Corn-laws, what their advo ca t es can say i n their support. Under this more general view the motion makes a judicious and proper use of the house ; but what is beneficial to the public, is seldom agreeatsk to it, and its opposition made the task of addressing i t one of difficulty. 'l'ho debate was accordingly -languid, t h ough it produced, particularly in Mr. BROTHERTO:eB speech, and in the speech of the mover, a great number of use ful facts. Mr. VILLIERS, by again undertaking a task which the previous debate on the same subject has made somewhat irksome, has again merited well of his constituents, and of all the great Anti-Bread-tax party, which now comprises, we are proud to say, the bulk of the people. le .ling ,xreat Changes have taken place in the opinions of our politiciatta of all parties at different times; and when they have arisen from sincere conviction, and not from sinister motives, the men have only gathered addi tional honour. The Duke of WELLINGTON, for instance, gained more honour by his conversion to Catholic Eman cipation, than by his obstinate adherence to anti-reform. On the same occasion Sir ROBERT PEEL changed his opinions, but his motives were suspected, and he for a considerable period lost the confidence of his own party. On the very question now under discussion the leading men on both sides have materially modified their views. Sir ROBERT PEEL has admitted that the present Corn-law is susceptible of improvement. Lord JOHN RUSSELL has gone over from being a strenuous advocate for agricultu ral protection, when he addressed the electors of Hunt ingdon, (to which he the other evening only gave a qualified adherence), and has become convinced that a moderate fixed duty, terminating at is., will meet the circumstances of the case. Lord PALMERSTON who, on Wednesday, took such a large and philosophical view of the whole subject, and eloquently contended againsti the miserable principle of protection, was reproached last night with being a member of the Duke of WEL LINGTON'S Cabinet in 1828, which passed the existing law. There can, therefore, be no shame in statesmenti changing their opinions from honest motives, and ther,-1 is no reason, we think, why Whig statesmen, who have gone so far on the corn question, should not go further, and give their hearty support to the proposition for a total repeal. We know not that they mean to adopt this course, but we know that it would be manly, politic, and wise; that it would immediately place them at the head of as powerful an Opposition as any that Govern ment ever had to contend against, would soon place them in office, and long continue them in power. For making this change they have an admirable reason. Let them look around them. The situation of the country calls for it, and warrants it. The distress of the people cries aloud to Heaven for it. Patriotism and justice command it. Policy says it alone can prevent heavier mischiefs to the community than the destruction of the landed interest, should that be the result. All our institutions are threatened. Class is taking up opinions hostile to class ; contention is on every hand ; demoralisation, poverty, disease, and death are spreading, from the accursed starvation law, over the country, and would justify the most rapid and right about conversion to the doctrine that the Corn-laws ought to be immediately and totally repealed. Were the Whigs to unite cordially with the Repealers on this point, as' ibey may with justice and honour, in a few months the good , 7ork would be achieved. The Whigs would deserve and soon acquire the gratitude of the nation, even including their present opponents, for having saved it from untold lvils. Let the Whigs change then, and be honoured in history as the benefactors of their species. Out of resistance to Corn-law repeal, Chartism is making a rapid progress. At a great meeting held at Bradford on Thursday, a resolution was unanimously adopted, declaring the Corn-laws unjust in principle, cruel in their operation, and oppressive alike to both master and workman ; adding that they will never be repealed until the principles contained in the People's Charter, viz., Universal Suffrage, Vote by Ballot, An nual Parliaments, No Property Qualification, Pay. meat of Members, and Equal Electoral Districts, be made the law of the land. Similar resolutions have been adopted at Manchester, and other places. A greater impetus has been given by the deceitful conduct of Sir R. PEEL, and his denial of justice, to a desire for a greater political change than we ever remember. It took more than a year to work the people up to Reform heat, though they had then many grievances to complain of, and the Government was on their side ; but it has not taken a week now to inspire them with almost universal indignation. At a great meeting at Walsall on Wednesday, this resolution was moved : " That the original compact by which our ancestors sur ren'iered a portion of their natural rights to their own and the general good, and subjected themselves to the authority and control of the governing power, a as reciprocal in its obligations and duties, one of the most essential conditions being th.! guarantee given by the governing power to protect the rights of persons and property, in return for the concession made by the people." The following is a specimen of the language by which Mr. WILKINSON supported it : " When it became evident that the interests of the many were to be sacrificed to those of the few ; when it was clear, beyond the possibility of a doubt, that Sir Robert Peel was about to proceed upon that plan of class legislation which had already inflicted such grievous evils upon the country, he cer tainly did think that it behoved them to look back to the origin of all government, to examine_ the first principles of legislation, and to investigate the tenure by which they claimed the surrender of the people's liberty—(Cheers) --for let it never be forgotten—and . , be wished to impres s thi s , upon their iitten five consideration—let it never be forgotten—and he spoke it on the authority of that great legal commentator, Blackstone— ' when legislation ceased to regard the interests (,f the witch., body of the people, it became pure and unalloyed tyranny," That resolution was carried though it was not strong enough for the Chartists. We are entitled,:then, to tell the landed aristocracy that they are provoking a serious and searching investigation into the very foundations of poli_ tical society ; and we must add, as the practices of obr Legislature conform to no theory of government which has ever found approval in England, we believe that the Government cannot stand the test of the examination. Sir ROBERT PEEL and his friends trust know whether they hold power by any other tenure than prescription ; and if they do not, they must be convinced that power, founded on prescription, nods to its fall whenever its origin is investigated. Lord AIAnoN thought he made a capital hit last night, when he proved, by his own experience, that the people of Warsaw are badly off with cheap food, while the people of Amsterdam are well off with dear food. There was distress at Poland when he was there, and plenty in Holland. We should have expected from a scion of the house of STANHOPE, the grandson of one of the most en lightened and liberal men of the last age, the great great-grandson of one of the boldest and best statesmen of England, that he would at least have remembered that at Warsaw there is unmitigated despotism, and at Amsterdam a tempered freedom—that at Warsaw there are great restrictions on industry, and at Amsterdam trade is nearly free. But the Noble Lord, with a sadly degenerate spirit, could see nothing but the cheapness of bread amongst the sera's of Poland, and its dearness amongst the freemen of Hol land, as the cause of distress in the former and of pro sperity in the latter. His view was limited, if not unjust. But, passing by the degeneracy of this STANHOPE— though he seems not to have sunk much below his im mediate predecessor—did it not occur to this intellectual Lord that these two cases are really amongst th,.. strongest arguments which can be adduced in favour free trade. and a manufacturing population ? The people of Poland are at once serfs and almost exclusively agri culturists, and thepeople of Amsterdam are commercial ists, manufacturers, and free labourers. If the Noble Lord can find nothing better than such cases as these to 'rest the oppression of the landlords on, he should remain silent. His party would reduce England to the condi tion of Poland ; the free traders aim at making it re semble, but become superior to, Holland. Freedom of all kinds, but notably free trade, was, and is, the soul of Holland's superiority to every part of Europe, except England ; and the more we give freedom to trade, the more wealthy will our people become, and the more we shall rise superior even to Holland. Railway legislation, to be worth anything, must differ as widely as the Poles from the ordinary legislation of Parliament. The Acts of Parliament are very few in deed, which from their extreme wordiness, their excep tional clauses, their repeals of fragmentS of former Acts, and their troublesome modes of enforcement, might not be mistaken for legislative devices to confound common sense, increase litigation, and thus give Parliamentary protection to the growth of lawyers. Statute-law in England might be defined to be a Parliamentary collec tion of words of doubtful and disputed meaning. Such legislation is altogether unsuitable to the management and control of railways. Laws for their regulation should be brief, plain, universally intelligible, and capable of the cheapest and the most expeditious enforcement. They ought to be so framed as to leave no room for cavilling either on the score of length, doubtful meaning, or difficulty of access. For these reasons then it is impossible that we could support the Railway Amend • ment Bill, laid before the House of Commons by the Right Hon. the President of the Board of Trade. As we stated on another occasion; this Bill proposes to amend an Act already in operation. Now the way to amend a bad law is not to patch it up, as a Monmouth -street tailor would an old coat, but to repeal it altogether, and re place it by a good one. It is less troublesome to Par liament to pass a complete Bill than to decide faithful].) about the patching of one which perhaps does not happen to be in the hands of a dozen of Members. Legislative patchwork is uniformly bad, but in no instance does it threaten to be attended with so many evils, if persevered in, as in the case of railway enactments. We contend against the principle of passing any Act to amend a Railway- Act. Where the. necessity of brief and simple legislation is so urgent, let the law requiring amend ment be repealed, and a more perfect measure substituted. The provisions of the proposed Railway Amendment Act are easily enumerated. - It vests the supreme direc tion of Railways in the Board of Trade. No new line can be opened before a month's notice has been given to the Board by the Railway Company.. If, upon an inspec tion of the line, by order of the Board of Trade, danger to the public be apprehended from opening it, the Board may at its discretion postpone the time of opening it for a month, with power to renew the postponement monthly till the danger shall have ceased ; violations of the orders of the Board, punishable by a fine of twenty pounds daily while the line is kept open. The Board of Trade is likewise authorised to order and enforce returns of all railway accidents ; to compel Companies to make bridges or viaducts over turnpike• roads ; to submit the disputes of rival Companies to arbitration, appoint um pires, and enforce awards ; to regulate the junction of branch lines ; and to cede to Companies compulsory powers to purchase and take immediate possession of lands, either for extending their lines, or for providing for the public requisite accommodation for the protection and transit of goods. The Act concludes with giving constabulary powers to all railway servants, for the ar rest and detention of each other if found drunk, or com mitting any act dangerous to the safety of railway pas •sengers, their goods, or destructive of the property of rail way Companies. These regulations are all important, and no doubt de sirable for the public protection ; but as the Bill which contains them does not embody all that Parliament chooses to enact upon the subject, we cannot accept it as a full and perfect treasure. We want one good Act, not two bad ones. The parable of mending an old garment with a patch of new cloth, and so making the rent worse, is directly applicable to this Railway Amendment Bill. Besides the evil will not stop at one advance. Every Session will call for its own Amendment Act, and thus railway legislation will become as perplexed as the law of titles to real property. Now is the time to pre vent the growth of this monstrous abuse. All requisite railway legislation might easily be embodied in one Act of not more than ten or a dozen clauses, in words as' simple as the Lord's Prayer. We are weary of repeating th e announcement that the debate on the Address is not yet closed in the Spanish Chamber of Deputies. On the 9th inst., it was proceeding as heavily and as dully as ever. In a letter from Madrid of that date, the following is given as the state of the Money Market MADRID, FEB. 9.—Notwithstanding the sensation produced by the movement in Portugal, Spanish Stock remains firm. here was no transaction in the 'Three per Cents. In the Five per Cents. 27 bargains were effected for a sum of 17,016,000 reals, of which two were for cash, at 31 15-16 and %, and the remainder for the Account at 33 1 / at 60 days. In the debt without interest three operations took place for 4,344,446 reals, of which one was for cash at 6, and the remain- ing two for the Account at 6 1-16 and 65-32 at 60 days. Ex-"I , change on London at 90 days, 37t/. The business done to day amounted, in English money, to about 220,2101. The French Government has found no difficulty in again shelving the question of Electoral Reform. M. Ducos' motion for including in the list of electors pro fessional men not qualified to vote by right of paying the requisite amount of taxes, has been rejected by a majority of 41 votes-193 votes being given for, and 234 against it. We have pleasure in stating that M. DE LAMARTINE, sympathising with the claims of literature to , direct representation, ably supported M. Ducos' proposition. But by far the most eloquent as well as the most powerful oppo nent of the measure was the Minister for Foreign Affairs M. GuizoT. He began by denying that the movement in favour of Parliamentary Reform was the spontaneous movement of society. It was superficial, factious, and false, and got up by Journals and committees. Those who supported it belonged to two fac ticTns labouring for the overthrow of the esta blished Government, the Republicans and the Royal ists. Both together constituted a miserable mino rity in the State, and he warned honest men to be upon their guard when they saw them uniting in any scheme, however specious a name they might give it. Having abused the Republicans and Carlists to his heart's con tent, the Minister next proceeded to discuss the question of the suffrage. The substance of what he said upon this question, may be gathered from the following short extract from his speech : Formerly, when the interests of the different &asses of society were divided, and there were privileged classes amongst them, a large number of electors was essential ; but there is nothing of this kind now. In a society where the aristocracy is strong and powerful, it is necessary that democracy should find its weight in the number of the electors; but we have no powerful or numerous aristocracy to contend with, and it is not necessary that we should seek to augment the number of electors. For my own part I repudiate the idea of universal suffrage, and with all the respect that 1 feel for a great nation I will take the liberty of saying that the great and imminent danger which menaces the United States of America arises principally from the exis tence of universal suffrage. Not only do 1 disapprove of um • versa' suffrage, but I dread its tendency. The arguments which are adduced in its favour do not convince me, and, al though they emanate from a more honourable source than the factions of which I have spoken, they do not on that account carry any weight. But M. GUIZOT did not long confine himself to the abstract question of principle. Having bid open de fiance to the Opposition, he with equal openness chal lenged the support of the Ministerial majority, He took care to tell them that he had no notion of quitting office, and consequently that his means of rewarding their Ole. giance was as extensive as ever. As such appeals are somewhat novel, we shall again quote an extract from the Minister's speech : An attempt is made to overturn the Cabinet; the Opposi tion is desirous of striking a death-blow at the Ministry. We all see what is meant, and where is the use cf mystery ? I will say to those who entertain this intention, that .so long as the Chamber shall not change the policy on which it has acted, since we came into office, so long will the Cabinet take care tha it shall not be overthrown. The Cabinet of October 29 was ormed under the influence of two principles : the re-estab lishment of harmony between France and Europe, and of order and Conservatism at home. These two Principles have been recognised and acted upon by the Chamber, and so long as the majority shall continue to act on them will we avail ourselves - of our institutions and of the plenitude of our rights to remain in office. 1 have spoken of our enemies, I will say a few words to our friends. I will say to them—You have engaged in and sup ported us in a heavy task ; I feel convinced that you will continue to support us as long as we shall remain faithful to a cause which is equally yours and our own. Take care that you do not weaken, for insufficient motives, the power that you desire to sustain ; take care not to diminish the strength of the Mi nistry, whilst you do not diminish the task which you have called upon it to perform. You have duties to fulfil as well as we have. Like us you are members of the State; do not hastily throw off your share of responsibility. I may venture to affirm for my colleagues and for myself, that we shall never be wanting in courage and perseverance ; but alone we can do nothing. We are to need of your aid—your persevering aid. I can only repeat to you—Do not diminish the strength of the government, if you do not diminish its burthen at the same time. If the day should arrive when the strength neeessary for governing should be insufficient, wa should not hesitate to retire even before you should be apprised of what we intended to do." This appeal at once decided the fate of M. Ducos' motion. M. DE LAMARTINE attempted a reply to K GulzoT, but the Chamber would not listen to him. He proclaimed himself a child of the Revolution f 17e2, and contended that M. Ducos' motion Was a natural consequence of the Revolution of July, and one of the safest measures of reform ever proposed. It would infuse new blood into the stagnant frame of the body politic, and pre vent the very changes so much dreaded by the Cabinet. But the majority had made up its mind to support a Ministry so tenacious of office. The result we have already stated. The persevering resistance of the French Cabinet to every project of electoral reform is fraught with the great est dangers to the State. M. GUIZOT admits that there are two active, dangerous factions in France, who regard with deadly hatred the ORLEANS dynasty,and who are constantly labouring to overthrow it. Yet by excluding young professional men from the list of electors, he virtually throws them into the arms of these factions. The suffrage is surely the cheapest, as it is the best, bribe that can be given to every young man qualified by education to enter upon the duties of a legal, a medical, a scientific, or a literary profession.

Peers last night, was f o ll owe d in to the Park . by a siderable num b er o f persons who vented their ill temper on his G race b y apply i ng to him sun d ry oppro b rious epithets. It i s a p i ty to see the days o f t h e veteran coming to a c l ose am i dst popular dislike. We understand that some of Sir Robert Peel's sup porters threaten further inroads on his sliding scale, much to the annoyance of the Right Hon. Baronet. It appears from a list of some seventy veteran Peers, published in The Sun, that their ages range from 72 to 92, the greater proportion of them approaching 80, and more than a doz en considerably exceeding that age. Among the clergy the proportion is nearly as high, and, probably, also the result would be found the same, if we had returns of the ages of all persons in easy circum stances from their youth upwards. We do not envy them such blessings, but at the sam e t i me cannot help con trasting these with the sufferings and the short span of life which are the lot of the great body of the working classes. In many trades few reach the age of 50, and not a few die at 35, from diseases brought on by severe or un healthy employments, scanty food and bad clothing. This melancholy fact cannot fail to m a k e a pa i n f u l i mpress i on on every humane mind, and ought to be an induce ment to those who live at ease, and especially our vete ran legislators, to sink their selfish interests for the be nefit of the community. The great mass of the taxes is paid by the labourers; they contribute most also to the trade, commerce, and general wealth of the country, while one-half of them have barely the means of exis - tence, and thousands at present are pining away for want of the necessaries of life. This is an anomalous and dan gerous o s n t s a i t d e e o r f at s ron ie oTou r i e-ci N u ve h a i l n tify lawgivers. SUMMARY D OF NEWS AN public eptuton. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. A majority of - forty - one Totes in the Chamber of Deputies has negatived the question of the extension of the suffrage in France. The Paris Journals are full of the subject. The Journal des Debats thus proclaims the triumph of the Cabinet :—" The result of the debate must have confounded many hopes, and deranged many intrigues. It was evident that the Opposition considered itself pretty sure of a victory ; we k now no t h o o- th e y . will attempt to explain their defeat. The pretence which they have so frequently set up of the absence of a certain number of its Members is now too old to be repeated, and the Chamber wus, perhaps, never more numerous than it was yesterday. Our anticipations have been realised. A majority of 41 on a question in which the Conserva tive majority was reduced to its own strength is a signi ficative result." The Presse pays the same homage to the eloquence of M. Guizot as the Debuts, and expresses its regret at the support given by M. de Lamartine to the proposition of M. Ducos. It blames M. de Lamartine for applying ar guments for the necessity of reform to the support of a measure so narrow and ill-conceived as that of M. Dims, and says, that the Chamber in refusing to take it into consideration his not intended fo close the door for ever against useful, rational, progressive reform. The Constitutionnel says:—" General expectation has been disappointed. The prise en consideration of the proposition of M. Ducos has been rejected by 234 votes to 193. This result afflicts us profoundly ; not because it was of much importance to us whether the Ministry received a check or not, fur M. Guizot had expressly de clared that whatever might he the result of the ballot, the Cabinet would not resign; because a decision in favour of the proposition would have been a concession to public opinion, and would have raised the character of the Chamber and of representative government in the estimation of the country. Ministers, however, have carried the day, and the decision will not be gratifying to them alone. The factions_ against whom M. Guizot yesterday pronounced his eternal philippic, will rejoice as he does at the result. Partial reforms are not what they want; it will answer their purpose much better to see satisfaction withheld from the demands of the country. The Courrier Francais is very violent against the Mi nistry, and in particular against M. Guizot. This Journal says it is quite evident that no satisfaction will be given to public opinion by the present Chamber of Deputies, and therefore it calls upon the Opposition to organise their force well for the next general election. " M. Guizot will certainly," says the Courrier, " employ corruption and intimidation on the most extensive scale. No scruple will, assuredly, be allowed to restrain either him or his colleagues or his agents." The Carlist Quotidienne observes :—" We felt for a moment a movement of indignation which we cannot describe, when we heard M. Guizot, branded its he is With his apostacies, audaciously insulting adversaries who would be despicable in their opinion, if they had not for him the repulsiveness with which he inspires all honour able men ; but, under the effect of his emphatic but empty speech, in spite of the effrontery of falsehood in his argument, and of his ardent notice of the most silly passions of parties, the majority remained silent and cold ; it did not even reply to his humble supplications by the modest murmur of applause, which is indicative rather of consent of the will than of adhesion of the con science. We recalled to mind the words which were once addressed to M. Guizot by the Debats—'You shall have our support, but never our esteem,' and the only feeling that AI. Guizot- excited in our mind was one of - The France says, the power of the Government must be very feeble, very slippery, to dread thus the slightest fissure in the electoral edifice ; and intimates that, al though M. Guizot has been successful in the Chamber, the Journals, which had power enough to raise the dis cussion there, will be much more powerful in their ap peals to the public at large. The Temps, whilst it deplores the result of the motion for taking into consideration the proposition of M. Ducos, says that the speech of M. Guizot produced -a, deep im pression on the Chamber, and to this the Temps seems to attribute the result that has been obtained: " A treaty of commerce and navigation," says the Courrier Francais, " has just been concluded between France and Denmark. For a long time, the King- of Denmark has manifested a desire of seeing the two nations united in their interests, and it is to his solici. tude that the bases of this treaty are due. The project will shortly be communicated to the Chamber." Perpignan letters state that the French Government has forwarded three millions of francs to the frontiers of Catalonia, for the purpose of encouraging the organiza tion of Christino guerillas - . Since the Spanish Ministers obtained certain informa tion that attempts are making in Spain to get up another conspiracy, aided by recent occurrences in Por tugal, one hundred alabarderos mount night guard within the loyal Palace, commanded by their Captain- General the Marquis de Yallehumbrosa, and the pre caution of not permitting the Queen's drives to extend beyond the gates of the capital, are strictly adhered to. PARLIAMENTAUY. Lord Kinnaird last night, in the House of Lords, pre sented several petitions for the repeal of the Corn-laws, and drew their Lordships attention to the great distress which prevails at Paisley and other places. Lord Campbell announced his intention of bringing forward a Bill for the improvement of the jurisdiction of the Privy Council. In the Commons a great number of petitions were presented for the abolition of the Corn-laws. Lord Eliot gave notice that he will introduce a Bill to legalize marriages by Dissenting ministers in Ireland, on the 24th instant. Idn been a ly atoet3ufarily Buller, sentenced to death in Ireland for killing a goat, but he was set at liberty by the Govern ment. The Noble Lord promised to introduce a Bill to abolish the ancient law under which the man was sen tenced to death. Mr. Wakley read a letter from the late Lord Pre sident Hope,stating, honourably to Mr.Wakley, that as he appeared to have acted on public grounds, the Lord President informed him that during eleven years he had been absent from only th ree jury trials. Sir Robert Peel added, that the Lord President had not applied to him in 1834-5, to be released from his duties. Mr. Fox Maule made a proper apoplogy for his error. The Speaker would not allow Mr. Milner Gibson to read a declaration from his constituents, signed by 20,000 persons, against Sir Robert Peel's plan. On the Belfast Election petition, which involves a question of privilege, as it was signed by a Peer, it was settled that the petition having been received by the House, it had no option but to refer the petition to the General Election Committee. Mr. Thesiger thereupon withdrew his motion, and the petition was referred. On going into a Committee on the Corn-laws, Mr. Villiers brought forward his motion for the total repeal of all duties on corn, and the House was occ u pi e d w i t h that subject the rema i n d er of the evening. A consider able number of Members spoke, but- none of much weight, except the mover Mr. Leader and Mr. Bro therton made good speecles. At twelve o'clock the debate and the House were loth adjourned. Rill ass e rt h i his motion, its potency. h alis e only PUBLIC OPZNION. The Post is angry with Mr. Roebuck for his late speech in the Commons, observing, " this gentleman, like others of his sect, fancies himself a thinker. He affects to scorn authority, and professes to try all institutions, and all systems of opinion, by their conformity with cer tain first principles. Yet Mr. Roebuck is all the while merely moving in a eircle'of chalk—a circle described by Bentham and Bentham's t upils." The Advertiser is of opinion that the present political crisis is an awful one, and. adds, " it is not the fate or for tune of one class or section of the people that is menaced with mortal damage ; it is the fate or fortune of the country itself—of her people occupations. We much mistake th• character of English men,of all classes, and of all assisted if the time has not now arrived when Nature's first law, self-preservation, The Herald insists that Lord John Russell, so far from assisting his party 7 to bring forth the strength of the Ministry. " Messrs. Villiers, Cobden, and C 0.," pursues ou r Contemporary, little -go this " are to be permitted to have their of even ing, for the satisfaction of their confederatest_Ministerialthe League; but the important debate proposition, and on those principles which . shall govern. practical legislation on the Corn-law, is over. present wit the late The Times, comparing the owing effect :—"Th Ministry expresses itself to the following e late Ministry had no strength, except what they derived from the support of men of extreme opinions, pur chased by a subservienq to party views and party pur poses. Steady moderation was a phrase which had no place in their system ; their Government was a com pound of humiliating dependence and insolent defiance. The present Ministry, on the contrary, are characterised by a rejection of all extreme views, of whatever kind. They are the champions of no particular interests, though they may decline to sacrifice them. The.,Chronicle says :---‘, How miserably has the Right Honourable Baronet floundered in trying to produce a cause to serve as a feasible substitute for the Corn-law, in accounting for the distress of the country ! Mr. Hastie, the Member for Paisley, on Wednesday night made sad havoc with some of his causes. In fact, he convicted Sir Robert of nearly as great ignorance of the true state of thing s in accounting for our commer c i a l distress, as he had formerly displayed when denying its existence." The Wilts Independent observes of Sir Robert Peel :- 1 "He has placed himself in a most unenviable position — he has pleased no one. He has broken faith with those who looked upon. the present Corn-laws as something sacred, and on himself as their sworn champion ; he has disappointed the Whigs—the fixed duty men —and he has done any thing but throw oil on the troubled waters .o/ total repeal. He is like the old man and his ass--in trying to please every one, he has pleased no one ; and it will be well, if, like his prototype, he do not lose his beast of burden." The Derby Reporter thus alludes to the Ministerial Corn-law measure :—" Nothing can exceed the dissatis • faction which the proposal has excited in all places and with all people. The very journals of the Tories trumpet it into popularity with their own party—the Li her.]: prosB is unanimous in discountenancing the trea chery. No one believes for a moment that this is the settlement of a great question ; even the Tries accept it simply as a first instalment: Lord John Russell's amendment may not be successful now—but a concession has been made, an impulse has been given to the party which demands an entire repeal of the Corn-laws." The following is from the Sherbourne Journal :—" We think that Sir Robert Peel has acted with as much libe rality, if not more, than he could with safety ; but we infinitely prefer Lord John Russell's proposal for a fixed duty, because, whilst it offers a protection to the agricul turist, it opens a new clittnnel for our manufacturing in dustry, and it would lead to the lands being let at corn rents, and under fair and reasonable leases." The Cork Southern Reporter has the follow ing- obser vations, suggested by the recent debate :—" The English people carried the Tories into power ; and, in the midst of unheard of distress, waited calmly and patiently fur the promised redress from their favoured Minister. They have been disappointed ; and they are now about to commence the agitation in good earnest, but, unhappily, at a time when Sir Robert Peel, protected by the majo rity which the people gave him, may aflbrd to laugh at their threats and demonstrations ; and when the Duke of Welling:on, entrenched within so secure a protection, may once more, with scornful defiance, call their meetings and their conferences " useless farces." koZECTIONEERING. Sir Charles Lemon was elected on Wednesday last fcr West Cornwall, without opposition. Lord Bernard, son of the Earl of Bandon, has bec-n elected, without opposition, Member for the borough cf Bandon. LAW AND POLICE. At a meeting of the Middlesex Magistrates on Wed nesday, an address was on the spot suddenly drawn up, and agreed to by the Justices preSent, acknowledging the manner in which the Duke of Portland had filled the high and important post of Lord Lieutenant of the county for the last fifty years. - In the Court of Exchequer on Thursday, Mr. Gye, for many years one of the proprietors of Vauxhall Gardens, brought an action to recover remuneration for his ser vic,s against Messrs. Mitchell and Bunn, who, with the late Mr. Andrews, of Bond-street, became lessees for a limited time, under the assignees of Gye and Hughes. The plaintiff had been employed in 1841, and was to re ceive five guineas a week till the property was disposed of. His claim amounted to 2501. and the Jury, after an hour's deliberation, gave a verdict for 100 ggineas. Four men, named Cra,• ley, Brown. Harris, and Davis, were committed at Queen-square on Thursday, for break ing into the dwelling-house of Mr. Piersey, landlord of the White Horse, Knightsbridge, aboutibalf-past two on Thursday morning. Two of them were found concealed in the cellar, and the other two were arrested in the Broadway, Westminster, a little after. They made a desperate resistance. At Kensington Police Court, Mr. Powell, omnibus proprietor, Brentford, was fined 11. for running an om nibus from London to Brentford, having a license only for the distance to Turnham-green. MISCELLANEOUS. Sir William Molesworth, it is stated by a Conservative print, will probably be chosen High Sheriff of Cornwall for the year ensuing. Count Pozzo di Borgo, the celebrated diplomatist, who was so long Russian Ambassador in France, and afterwards in England, died on Tuesday at his residence in Paris, No. 43, Ru e de l'Uni vers it e , in the 77th year of his age. Yesterday was the anniversary of the death of Martin Luther, in 1516. His life is the history of the age in which he lived. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, FRIDAY EVENING. The attention of the merchants and others in the City, was very much engrossed to-day by the consideration of the causes that led to the return of the Caledonia steamer. It seems to be agreed upon by all impartial persons that any sailing vessel under similar circumstances must have been exposed to equal danger. It is to be feared that the non-arrival of this punctual steamer will occasion much anxiety on the other side of the Atlantic. The members of the Stock Exchange:were much interested to-day by the trial in the Court of Exchequer, " The Bank of England against Tomkini," a stock-broker, who obtained a loan to the amount of 8,0001. from the Corporation, on the de posit of Exchequer Bills, which subsequently proved to be forged. It was decided that the defendant must make g , od the amount to the Bank of England, having his remedy against the Government for compensation. The decision so far was such as might have been expected. The business done in the Funds to-day was to a fair extent, and owing to the rise on the Parisian Bourse, at full prices. Consols wen done at 894' to 89i for present transfer, and at 894 to 89i for account. Bank Stock to-day rose to 170, and East India to 248 and 249. The Three-and-a-Half per Cent. Securities were buoyant ; New at 984 to 98:4, and Reduced at 99/ to 994. For Exchequer, Bills the premium remained at 235. to 255., and for India Bonds it was at (is. to 7s. The business in the Foreign Market was principally in South American Bonds. Spanish Actives were again quoted 244 to ; and Portu. r uese New receded, to 32,`.. Mexican Bonds were firm at 35i to s ; Colombian at 224.. to 23 : and Brazilian at,65. French Three per Cents. were marked too, with the Exchange at 25 .60: Dutch Five per Cents. were again 102 k to 1021. Shares did not improve, either in price or demand. Btighton were 141 to 14A discount, without the loan notes, which were 1 premium. Manchester and Leeds Shares were t 1 premium ; and Great iWestern, New, 10 premium. Australasia .1.32nk Shares were 13/; Co:onial, 1/; and London and Westmin ster, Z-!/ premium. National Bank of Ireland were 1 discount. It is satisfactory again to notLe the improvement in the rate for Bills of Exchange on the leading Continental cities, and which ire now rather scarcer. On Paris, the quotations were 25f. 80c. to 85c. ; on Hamburgh, 13 11 to /; on Amsterdam, 12 4 , 1 to 5; on Frankfort, 150/ to ; on Antwerp, 12 4/ ; and on Trieste, 9 52/ to 9 53.

The steam-ship Acadia, is appointed to sail on Saturday, at two o'clock, with the passengers and the mail from the Caledonia.

The Secretary had a letter from the Archbishop of Ilalines, and 1110 Bishops of Liege, Bruges, 'l'ournay, Namur, and (ihtnt, . .in which they declare that they withdraw their petition, the object of which was to obtain a law by which the Roman , ii , Catholic Unive rs ity o f L on d on s h ou ld b e constituted personee ~ , ctvsle. 'r he permanent deputation of Brabant has lust ad* . dressed the followi ng circular to the rilag,istrate of the Com - i munes, and to the charitable institutions of the province i-* "The successive increase in the price of provision, and 4' articles of every description, has rendered it necessary to Ili' crease the cost of a day's subsistence in the hospital of Brut- sels, of indigent persuris not belonging to the city, which ',l has remained since 1818, at eighty centimes per day. We, therefore, inform you that it has been agreed, by the " ...,e -direction of the haspita s of Brussel s , by th e C o mmercial ', O -c Council of the city, and by us, that from the Ist of January, 1342, the cost of a day's subsistence of the 'indigent in the hospitals of St. Peter and St. John shall be fixed at one franc, twenty-five centimes. . " It. is therefore at this rate that you all have to pay, hence birth, the cost of maintaining in the hospitals of Brussels, the indigent b.:longing to your respective communes."
