Utt 2nit, LONDON : WEDNESDAY mortm - NG. SEPTEMBER 14, 1842. __~- we have for some time been of opinion that the Editor of .the Poit is a most convinceable man, and we assured the members of the Anti- CornAaw,League, when they were in town, that if they went on the right tack, on obtaining an interview 'with him, they would certainly convert hint. • IV;rint their assistance, however, we see that he i!;, by his own reasniiing, daily converting himself. process, and a little help from us, he has at length arrived at the conclusion that the great error of our community is a faulty distribution, of wealth. Of course, therefore, he gives up the well stuffed and long paraded buga boo of over production. He is become, too, a convert to the total and immediate repeal of the Corn-law, on one condition, that it be proved to him that the repeal would give " people offering their labour an increased value for it," or distri bute a larger share of the national wealth to the labourers. We can scarcely hope at once to sa tisfy him that this condition would be consequent on the repeal ; but we must try, and we believe his own suggestive fancy will help our endeavour. The Post complains that Corn-law Repealers only make assertions on this point ; but what else can be made with reference to the unknown future? If the Post were to question whether the sun will rise to-morrow, we could give no proof other than that it has risen regularly since man has existed. If it question on any similar grounds the assertions of the free-traders, that morn employment would be immediately found for our people by setting trade free, what proof cart they offer of their assertion other than that . such bias generally been the consequence of the .retnov al of restrictions? In fact that is implied in tin proposition. That restriction prevents trade, and that there would be more trade were there mu restriction, is self-evident, for the two statements are identical. The Manchester men and the men of Shefield have said aloud, give us liberty to import food from wherever we please without subjecting it to a tax, and we win instantly set a great number of additional bands to work. Their assertion implies that they will pay, more wages—if not raise the rate of wages— and so distribute more wealth amongst the work ino- classes. What other proof can the Post de sire that the repeal of the Corn-laws would rea lise the condition on which it declares the Legis lature ought to repeal the Corn-law ? Will any other employer pay less wages ? Not filo.. generous and benevolent landlords, accordieg to .toe theory of the Post, for they are only anitsTitis to benefit the people. Not the farmers, for they will and must sow and prepare the ground for next year's crop. They will be wise in doing so, for the increased employment in the in t iritifacturing ,districts will infallibly cause an incased demand for agricultural produce, to satisfy mu which will re - , nerate tnem. Pricesmay notbe so high, hut they will have to give less for whUt they use and consume , and they will be benefited by the change. That they will em ploy fewer 'hands, and that land will go out of cultivation as the manufacturers increase and the towns-people multiply, is an assertion of the Post, far more groundless, allow us to a than our assertion that the farmers win not s pc , less wages, and that the master manufacturersa will pay a great deal more. In truth every person is aware—is firmly con vine.ed without any reasoning —that the p resent abundance will meliorate the condition of the labouring classes, though not to thatextentwhich the benevolent Post and the :elfish Sun desire. - Why is this? Because the things mainly pur chased by . wages are, first food and next clothing. When there is more food, then wages will buy inoee It is admitted that free trade would in. crease the present abundance of food. It would therefore raise the value of wages; it would give the whole labourers more wages, and enable there to buy more goods, - so that free trade would immediately improve their condition. Moreover the demand for labour is necessarily determined by the quantity of tbod which call get or can command. To increase the titiant iiN of food is to give the capitalists the command of a 4 greater quantity, an d i s to make wv them set a great, n. number of hands to w or k. • The immediate n . d certain effect, th ere f ore, o f totally abolishin 'e Corn-laws, wo u ld b e, to g increase employment, to increase w ages, and give to the labouring classes an incre ase d share of the abundance w ith whip -II the ALMlGi rr y ap pears to h ave bl esse d almost the whole civilized world. What might be the ultimate consequence can be as little known to the Post as to us; we, however, are inclined strongly to recommend our rulers to do right, and trust in GOD ; abolish the Corn-laws, give the people food at present, and leave tht future to His, whose eye already sees the whole. Only let the Post join with us in procuring free trade and full bellies for the people, and it may safely rely that everything It can desire for society— all other graces, Will follow in their proper places. We insert, in another part of The Sun, a letter signed "H. P.," of which we willingly accept the compliments, and shall endeavour to reply to the objections. Our Correspondent says, in reference to an article which appeared in our paper as long ago as the 3d instant, that a sentence in it "is a jumble." It is very pro bable that, writing without time to revise our sentences, we have expressed ourselves ob scurely; but our Correspondent insist be sensible that legislation is not intended to operate on the past—that the present is a mere line which divides the past from the future—and that in fact, all laws are intended to operate at a future time. Now, our statement was—that " the pre sent condition of the manufacturing population was neither foreseen nor provided for by any scheme of legislation ;" " that it had grown up, as it were, in the course of nature, would con tinue to grow, and that the legislator should now endeavour to adapt his laws to what will be the condition of society in, future, if he can ascertain it." This may be a jumble, and it may be impossible to ascertain the future state of society ; but the principle we laid down is not our own—it is borrowed from no less estimable a philosopher than Mr. DUGALD STEWART. He says, in the first volume of his " Moral Phi losophy"— " It is easy for a statesman to form to himself a dis tinct and steady idea of the ultimate objects at which a wise legislature ought to aim, and to foresee that modifi cation of the social system, to which human affairs have of themselves a tendency to approach ; and, therefore, his practical sagacity and address are limited to the care of accomplishing the important ends which he leas in view, as effectually and as rapidly as is consistent with the quiet of individuals, and with the rights arising from actual establishments." .... p r.) t .. * / , ,IVio, may. . • ' 4 ', . - .. , Cl. ila %. k .., t ' k ...,,, ~,,..,'....2.1.1/4".

This is to be followed by a miscellaneous part! comprising songs and choruses by Handel, Mozart, Haydn, Mendelsohn, Guglielmi, Dr. Chard, and G. Ferry. The evening's performances are to consist on the first evening, of Handel's ode, " Alexander's Feast," and a Miscellaneous Part ; on the second evening of Haydn's, " Seasons ;" and on the third evening of Romberg's " Song of the Bell," and a short Miscel laneous Selection. Too much praise cannot be awarded to this attempt to make an evening concert something like a rational entertainment. One complete work like those an nounced to be performed at the evening concerts of this festival is worth at least twenty times the value of concerts, at which the most trifling songs, from the most flimsy of Italian operas, wrenched, too, from their appropriate situations without the least regard to their fitness for the concert-room, form the staple commodity. It is to be hoped that this spirited at tempt will be rewarded with the success it deserves. A very prominent feature of this festival is the national character which it assumes, the Directors having determined that the whole of the singers should be English. This determination has been come to, not from any illiberal prejudice against ; foreigners, but from the fact that the attraction of Italian singers was never sufficient to cover the ad ditional expense occasioned by the extravagant terms demanded by them. It must not be forgotten that the present meeting will be held in tile nave of the Cathedral instead of the choir, as heretofore, and that the new organ just erected for the Cathedral by Hill, will be opened on the occasion. with rifles, and the remainder with swords and buck lers. They have been zealously drilled during the last two days by two officers of the 42d, in presence of Lord and Lady Willoughby, d'Er€o)y, and the other noble guests who are sojourning at Drummond Castle. The pavilion where her Majesty with the Royal party will dine is splendidly fitted up with the Drum— mond arms—the three waving liars, &c. The walls are hung with red and yellow' drapery, decorated with dahlias and other flowers, and different devices, executed in gold. This ediffie is supported by twenty imitation marble columns i placed at equal dis tances, the space betwixt each being filled up with the Drummond arms. The roof is hung with blue lining studded with stars. The pavilion is 50 feet by 25 in dimensions. It has been arranged that his Royal Highness will this day (Monday) proceed on a hunting excursion to Glenartney,.which is distant about two miles from Drummond Castle. DRUMMOND •CASTLE AND ITS ENVIRONS. Castle Drummond, seated boldly on the side of a hill, amidst a fine extent of woods, commands a very noble view down towards Strathearn. The house is by some judges considered unequal to the situa tion; its dimensions, though not large, are comely, and its present claims are not on the side of antiquity. At the rear of the present ediice are to be seen some remains of the old castle, built by Sir John Drum mond, hereditary steward of Strathearn, in 1493, after removing from the ancient seat of the family at Stobhall. Around Drummond Castle all is classical ground. Approaching it from the termination of Strathearn and from Comrie, the plain, of some extent, appears, which was occupied by Agricola, immediately before the battle of Mous Grampins, and the very spot pre serves the name of Galgachan, as if derived from Galgacus, leader of the Caledonions at that fatal en gagement. Weapons and other instruments are found on this spot, -spurs, battle- axes , and iron bands. Ancient and renowned ground also bounds it at two or three miles onwards to Kemp's Castle, all about which is supposed to have been the busiest scene of action in the third year of Agricola's expeditions. At Strageth, also, on the banks of the Earn, are the vestiges of the small Roman station, which k supposed to have been the Ad Hiernam of Richard of Cirencester ; but at Ardoch is the famous one, the area of which is an oblong of 140 yards by 125, and which is supposed to be the most Complete of any in Great Britain ; by the care of Sir William Stirling, Bert., whose man sion is adjacent, it has been enclosed with a high stone wall to preserve it fiorn future demolition. As regards the village of Muthil, which is situated on the great military road from Stirling to Inverness, Drummond Castle stands to the . westward. The illustrious family of Perth, who once owned it, were proprietors of more than two-thirds of the parish, whose population in 1811 was 3,090. The family derive themselves from Mauritz, an Hungarian of Royal blood, who having the conduct of the mother and sisters of Edgar Atheling, in their flight from the Norman usurper, was, with his Royal charge, driven by a storm into the Frith of Forth. The reigning Monarch, Malcolm Canmore, became enamoured of, and afterwards married one of the sis ters ; and in reward to Mauritz, for his skilful pilot age, made him a considerable grant of lands, and caused him to assume the name of Drumen, which has since been converted into Drummond, meaning the high ridge, but, figuratively, the great wave of the sea, in memory of the perils from which he had delivered . the fair Queen. Drummond Castle was besieged immediately after the burning of the church of Monivard, the chieftain and his followers having retired thither to screen themselves from punishment. It soon surrendered, however, to the King, James IV., on condition that their lives should be preserved ; but as soon. as the King got them into his power he carried them to Stirling, where they suffered. The castle was after.. wards besieged, taken, and garrisoned by Cromwell's forces ; and finally, at the Revolution, was totally demolished. The ruin of the old family was com pleted in 1745, when the Duke of Perth, by an un fortunate attachment, forfeited the ancient estate, to the amount of four thousand a year, and lost his life, worn out with the fatigues of the winter's campaign. The air of rugged grandeur —the celebrity which attaches to the time-honoured relics of antiquity, have of course disappeared with the ancient edifice. The modern. building, however, is prepossessingly con structed, and few tourists fail to visit it for the at ( tractions of scenery it commands. DRU Al MOND CASTLE, SUN DA 7 EVENING.—The fol lowing are the visitors at the mansion of Lord Wil• lOughby D'Eresby, in addition to her Majesty and Prince Albert--air Robert Peel, Earl o f Aberdeen, Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch, Duchess of Norfolk, Earl of Morton, lion. Miss Pageot,uEveareri,lo. hl r. G. E Liverpool, Major-General Wemyssl Col. B Anson, Lord and Lady Carrington, DUke de Richelieu, Viscount Ossulston, and Mr. and Mrs. Heathcote. It will thus appear that the party at the Castle is rather limited, but not so the dinner circle, for on Saturday night covers were laid for forty,four, when, inclusive of the distinguished personages, : above named, there were present--the Duches,s of Suther land and Lady Elizabeth Leveson. Gower, Duke and Duchess of Roxburgh, Earl :of: Mansfield, Viscount Strathallan, Lord and Lady, Ruthven, Sir George Murray, Sir David and Lady. Dundas, .the Hon. the Master of Strathallan, Mr. Home Drummond, Mr. Edward Drummond, and the officer on guard with the 42d Highlanders, now doing duty at the Castle during the visit of the Queen. The gratifying reception that welcomed the arrival of her Majesty and her illustrious consort is the theme of general conversation in all circles and the solicitude evinced by both Lord and Lady Willoughby D'Eresby cannot but elicit the warmest marks of admiration from those who had opportunities of wit nessing their exertions to render the Royal visit one of general rejoicing. Lord Willoughby D'Eresby was, for some hours previous to her Majesty's arrival, most anxious to obtain the earliest intelligence of her Majesty's ap proach, and in order that all facilities should be afforded for the progress of the Royal cortege, his Lordship came down to the new church at the ex tremity of the ancient town of Crieff, personally to inspect the arrangements made. In point of situation the castle is unrivalled in what may be properly termed the low country, and in the Highlands, Blair and Dunkeld have been considered by the highest authorities to possess but trifling advan tages as to scenery, for the site of the castle commands a view so varied and profuse as to render it famous in all parts of Scotland. This morning, her Majesty and his Royal High ness Prince Albert, with Lord and Lady Willoughby, attended divine service at the Castle, the Rev. J. 1). Giles, his Lordship's domestic Chaplain, officiating on the occasion. _ _ --. The Earl of Aberdeen, Sir Robt. Peel, and a party, went to the Episcopalian chapel at Nuthill. In the morning her Majesty walked for some time in the gardens and grounds surrounding the Castle, the weather at that time being remarkably fine. In the afternoon the rain prevented the Queen and his Royal Highness Prince Albert from taking their usual carriage drive. The dinner-party this evening was very select, the only additions being the Marquis and Marchioness of Abercorn, the Earl and Countess of Kinneull and Lady Louisa Hay, the lion. John Stuart, the Rev. J. D. Giles, and the Officer in -command of the 42d Highlanders on guard. ANECDOTES CONNECTED WITH THE QUEEN'S VISIT. (From the Scotch Papers.) During the Royal voyage to Scotland his Royal Highness Prince Albert having observed that the passengers of the Monarch, one of the steamers N th e a r tp a r m o proc eeded de ddown the Frith to meet her Majesty,, v themselves-with dancing, directed the Queen's attention to th e fact, when her Majesty in stantly gave her g rac i ous permission that the crew-of the Royal yacht might engage in similar amusements, an act of condescension wliich the jolly tars very soon took care to avail themselves of with infinite glee. One remarkable circumstance may be mentioned in connection with her Majesty's voyage, and it is this: that neither the Queen nor the Prince were attended by any of the ladies or gentlemen of the household, but merely the usual domestics; and perhaps a more handsome compliment could not have been paid to the internal arrangements of the Royal yacht, with which, upon all occasions, her Majesty appeared highly sa .. tisfied. In Edinburgh on Thursday, the day on which her Majesty landed, some ludicrous scenes took place in consequence of the incredulity of some of the parties who had purchased tickets as to the intelligence that her Majesty had passed the spot in which they had taken up their positions. Hundreds, who arrived long after the Royal carriage passed by, took their seats on the scaffbldings with them o st imperturbable gravity, and sat in the security of their ignorance for upwards of half an hour, amidst the laughter and coarse gibes of the lower class of the struggling mob, who in vain assured them that they had edoo t late. One old g entleman, who had come faromrriv some remote part of Scotland, was actually immovable. When her Majesty and Prince'Albert were driving from • Dalkeith Palace on slowly along the avenue Friday, a collier, with unwashed hands and unshaven chin, approached the carriage, and extended his hand to Prince Albert, who received it with great frankness and shook it heartily. The collier did not att em pt th e same liberty with her Majesty', probably, because he had never shaken hands with a lady in his -life, and was not quite sure of the proprie_ty of begin n i ng w i t h the Queen ; but h e exclaimed, " Ye!re just the woman we want." Her Majesty and the Prince laughed heartily at the occurrence. .The, anxiety to get a close view of her Majesty was excessive. At the Castle -gate an elderly woman sprung past the soldiers, and pressing through the aty who had been in attendance on the Queen in the Castle, exclaimed, almost convulsively, " Oh, will you not let m® see the Queen ?" A military gentleman pushed her back, but she was not so easily put off; again pressing forward, she stood within a yard of the Royal carriage, and, clasping her hands, cried out, " Hech, sirs, is that the Queen ? Is that the Queen ? Weel ; what have Ino seen this day ? Eh, but she's a bonnie leddie !" The poor woman gazed awhile in silent admiration, but was at last forced to withdraw, much against her will, consoled, however, by the reflection that she had seen the Queen, and that the Queen had seen her. . _ _ Decidedly the most conspicuous of all the equi pages was acoach-and-four in flashing, flaming, scarlet livery, followed by a chaise and two in the same. Up and down, up and down, the main streets it drove incessantly on Wednesday and Thursday. The crowds of pedestrians gazed. See ! see !" cried one in every room, and there was a rush to the windows to see. " Who is it ? who is it ?" was the question. "It is the Duke of Hamilton," cried some. But none could tell surely, and all wished to know. Who is it ? It must be something great, with that red• hot . . kitchen furnace-coloured — livery. The thing grew to a mystery. We had seen the equipage for the fifth or sixth time, when as it passed us once again, we startled our companions by a burst of uncontrollable laughter. There, in the carriage and four with the scarlet livery, we saw, not the Duke of Hamilton, but—Provost Blaihie, in a blue coat and brass but tons. This mysterious equipage was the equipage of the deputation from Aberdeen. On her Majesty reaching Arthmore Lodge, the hunting seat of the Marquis of Breadalbane, on Sa turday, the people were most uproarious to see her, and when she appeared on the lawn many were the voices that exclaimed " Oh, she's a bonnie lassie, and the Prince is a fine laddie ; we're fu' weel contented wi' her." Numerous were the questions asked, " Where's Sir Robert Peel? He's next to the Queen; we'd be muckle weel contented to see him." And when he did appear he was loudly cheered, and, I am happy to say, looked remarkably well, presenting a great contrast to his appearance lately in the House of Commons. TO CORRESPONDENTS.

(From the Caledonian Mercury of Monday.) SATURDAY.—Very fortunately this day, which was appointed for her Majesty's departure, was a beau tiful September morning, the sun shining bright, and the temperature mild. It was expected that her Ma jesty and Prince Albert would leave the hospitable halls of Taymouth at ten o'clock, so that all was astir for an hour previous, every one being anxious to get a parting glimpse of the Royal pair. At a few mi nutes before eleven o'clock, the Royal carriage drew up at the entrance, and soon after her Majesty and Prince Albert, along with the Marquis and Mar chioness of Breadalbane, entered it and drove off to the Flower-garden, where her Majesty, in presence of the illustrious party, was graciously pleased to plant two oaks, and two firs, in commemoration of the Royal visit. Mr. Dewar, the head forester, attended on the occasion, and the small spade used had the handle encircled A ith crimson velvet, and no doubt will be long preserved as a valuable relic, while the Royal plants will be carefully cherished, and, we trust, are yet destined to obtain a time-honoured name. On her Majesty leaving the Castle, a Royal salute was given from the battery. The barges, which had been manned an hour previously, were all floating g racefully on the waters opposite to the landing place, which is a few hundred yards below Kenmore Bridge. The Royal suite walked up from the Castle to the place of embarkation, which was covered with crimson velvet ; but her Majesty, with Prince Albert and the Marquis and Marchioness of Breadalbane, immediately after the ceremony of planting the trees, drove up to the Kenmore-gate, and from thence to the Dairy-gate, at the back of the village of Ken more, and which is immediately adjoining the pier. The barge of her Majesty, which had the Royal standard hoisted at the prow, was steered by Captain M'Dougall, Royal Navy. All the seats were cushioned with the Breadalbane tartan, and those in the stern sheets were fringed with gold ; the cushions set apart for her Majesty were covered with velvet of the Breadalbane tartan, the drapery in front was of brown satin, on which the emblem of the Breadalbanes—a boar's head—was. beautifully em broidered along with a wreath of thistles. The awning was also of the same material, and handsomely decorated with gilded knobs. The other barges which displayed the Breadalbane flag were of as 'itegant construction, and chastely adorned. A fe' .-ainutes previous to her Majesty's arrival at the landing place, the band of the 66th were received on board one of the gigs, which was steered by an Admiralty barge man in state dress ; another gig, also steered by an Admiralty bargeman, took the first in tow, bringing it up a little way beyond the bridge, which was crowded with spectators. At half-past eleven o'clock, her Majesty steped into the Royal Barge, accompanied by Prince Albert and the Marquis and Marchioness of Breadalbane. The beautiful fabric was immediately propelled by eight stout rowers, arrayed in tartan and white trowsers, into the centre of the creek, the band playing the na tional anthem, and the crowd on the bridge enthusiasti cally cheering. As the barge glided through one of the arches of the bridge ' into Loch Tay, we thought at the moment that the scene was as impressive as any we have witnessed during the Royal tour. The Loch Tay barge followed, which was steered by Lieutenant J. Campell, R.N. (b.), in full uniform, and wearing an Acre medal. In this barge were the Duke of Buccicuch, the Duchess of Norfolk, the Earls of Mor ton and Liverpool, and Lord Belhaven. The third barge, which was steered by Lieut. Patrick Campbell, R.N., contained the Earl of Aberdeen and the Hon. Fox Maule. A fourth barge succeeded, in which MUSICAL FESTI- were Sir Robert Peel and others.

In this spirit he also says— " We may venture to predict that they are to be the most successful statesmen, who, paying all due regard to past experience, search for the rules of their conduct chiefly in the peculiar circumstances of their own times, and in an enlightened anticipation of the future history of mankind." In the following passage he conies to the prac tical point, and plainly tells statesmen, which is quite in conformity to experience, that they must get rid of the rubbish of ancient institu tions, the offspring of ignorance and bad passions, and not be in a hurry to put up others in their stead : "In the Governments of modern Europe it is much more necessary to abolish old institutions than to intro duce new ones, and if this reformation be kept steadily in view. and not be pushed further at any time than cir cumstances render expedient, or the ideas of the times recommend, the essential principles of a more perfect order of things will gradually establish themselves without any convulsion." We hope we have said enough to obviate the censure of our Correspondent. We shall only add, that if he were acquainted with all the dif ficulties of our position he would be slow to blame either obscurity of style, or a meaning half expressed, when we approach—as we are, from the condition of the country, fre quently obliged—the first principles of society. A joke is a good thing in a good place. A joke over the coffin of a young man suddenly snatched away, the bread-winner of a family which surrounds his bier overwhelmed with tears and grief, is a brutal insult. A joke about the shipwreck of the Amphi trite, or the massacre at Caubul, would rather pro voke anger than merriment, and gain for the joker, not applause, but a broken head. In like manner, it is probable that were a man to joke about the present condition of the people in the manufacturing districts ; reeling, as they are yet, with terror, he would be knocked down for his impertinence. At the same time we permit ourselves to joke about the causes of that condition, and public writers daily cut their jokes, about Sir Robert Peel and his deceit. Far worse, in our estimation, than a joke over the coffin of a lost husband, a ship sinking amidst the shrieks of wretched women, or a betrayed and massacred army, are the jokes over the deceit by which Sir Ro bert Peel, for the purposes of his personal and party aggrandisement, impeded commercial reform, in flicted partial stagnation on our commerce, and hun ger and death on many people—causing not one, but many such scenes as we first alluded to. The con duct which dooms men to such misery as our popu lation has suffered for a day or an hour, to say nothing of months and years, is heinous beyond description, and no more proper for a joke than the murder of a mother by her son. WORCESTER trolti ribitto i SUN OFFICE Three o' Clock. It may appear inexplicable to some persons, though the fact does not at all surprise those who know the men, that while the various classes in Scotland, including high and low, rich and poor ; Whig ankl Tory, are rejoicing in the presence . h of their Sovereign, the Non-Intrusionist clergy alone should exhibit great dissatisfaction, amounting almost to hatred, towards our young and beloved QUEEN. They have taken mortal offence because her MAJESTY did not leave her own church, and submit to a lecture from one of the sect, who might probably have denounced the Supreme Courts of Law, abused her Minister of State, and not spared even Royalty itself. The organs of the party, and fortunately they are very few, have been making a terrible outcry for the last ten days against this want of courtesy to law breakers, and appear quite furious against the advisers of her MAJESTY for having recom mended a course which "can be regarded only as a marked and positive slight to the Church and people of Scotland." Nay, they go farther, and madly impute to Sir ROBERT PEEL the design of erecting an Episcopal. Church on the ruins of that Establishment which the QUEEN has sworn inviolably to preserve and maintain, thereby casting doubt even on the' soleMn assurance of the QUEEN herself, renewed' to the clergy at Dalkeith in these words, " You may be assured that the solemn engagement into which I have entered to preserve all the rights and privileges of the Church as established by law shall be ful filled by me with scrupulous fidelity." This reply of course was framed with the consent of her MAJESTY'S Ministers, yet they are told in plain terms that they have given their sanction to a sacred pledge, which they intend to break, in order to make way fur the successors of LAUD in the Presbyterian Church. Such absurd im putations might have been passed over with out notice, but for the sentiments contained in an address of Dr. CHALMERS to a deputation from the Presbyterian Church of Ireland. Not being allowed to introduce any abuse into the address presented to her MAJESTY, and being disappointed in the scheme for making an attack on her Ministers under the guise of a sermon, the Chief of the Non-IntrusiOnists takes advan tage of the occasion, and thus vents his rage on the Government :—" This great munition (spiri tual independence) of all national churches, our spurious and short-sighted Conservatives would, with singular infatuation, sweep away--g►vines their countenance to the unconstitutional aggres sions of those judicial Courts that are now tram pling under foot and effacing every line of demar ation between the things of GOD and the things of CxsAn. Meanwhile the Church of Scotland, in the midst of these conflicting influences; be tween the last governing party which refused to extend her, and the present governing party which is attempting to enslave her, will steer her own rectilinear way. She will never relin quish the principle of a National Establishment, but will rather be driven from all ics privileges and endowments, than receive a mandate, or pay respect to an _interdict from the civil power in things ecclesiastical. In other words, she will consent to be a Voluntary rather than an Erastian Church; and if our rulers will persevere in their present blind and ruinous policy, acting the part of Destructives under the name of Conservatives, she will, if abandoned by the State, and erased from the institutions of the country, commit her righteous cause to that GOD who will not forsake her in the day of adversity, and to the sympathy and support of the people of Scotland." This is a fair specimen of the language adopted by the Non-Intrusionists, and is bad enough for a lay writer in a weekly periodical, but for a Professor of Divinity, and a teacher of the sons of the Church, it is utterly disgraceful. We wish Mr. Fox MAULE, now the intimate associate of Sir R. PEEL, joy of his protegee, and we con gratulate her MAJESTY on having escaped such an infliction as a lecture from one of these mis guided and rebellious Churchmen. Party spirit is running high in Ireland. The representation of the University of Dublin has effected a split in the Tory camp. All the ultra- Tories• cry out for HAMILTON, and abuse Lord ELIOT. This faction has the Irish Conservative Press at its disposal, and accordingly we find the Evening Mail, the Warder, the Statesman, the Drogheda Conservative Journal, the Carlow Sentinel, the Ulster Times, and a host of other Tory prints, crying "down with Lord ELIOT, May nooth, and National Education !" Such, in fact, are the great questions involved in the election, so far as a single election can involve anything, for the University of Dublin. Mr. HAMIL TON is pledged to oppose the grant to Maynooth and the Irish Education system, and is therefore the pet of the Orange party ; Mr. SMITH . , the Government candidate, will oppose neither, and hence the howl raised against him. " The Government," says the Warder, " in or der to carry out the Popery-bribing principles suggested by Lord ALVANLEY, and adopted by Lord ELIOT, might overbear the free voice of the University. If the grant to Maynooth is to be doubled next sessi.m—if collegiate privileges are to be bestowed upon Popish seminaries, after Whig example in England, it would be a conve nient preliminary to reduce the University of Dublin to the level of Kilkenny, Dung,arvan, or Clonmel. Such, we boldly affirm, is the result contemplated by Lord ELIOT—a master piece of policy in favour of Popery, too bold even for a Whig. It was reserved for a Conser vative Minister to make the treacherous attempt." Lord ELIOT pleases no party in Ireland. He is too liberal for the Tories, and too Tory for the Liberals'; and hence, with the exception of the Dublin Evening Post, he finds no support from the Press. We confess we like Lord ELIOT all the better for this unpopularity. it proves that his efforts are directed to ameliorate the bitter 'less of faction, in a country distracted by party feuds. As regards the Liberal Press of Ireland, it could not better serve the real interests of its party, than by relaxing its hostility to the Irish Government. Lord ELIOT is certainly nota 'fory, in the sense that word is understood in Ireland. As regards most Irish questions, apart from per sons, his Lordship is a Whig and something more. One of the greatest delusions under which the Irish Tories laboured was in supposing that under the Premiership of Sir R. PEEL they were to have a Government of their own kidney. Such a thing was never intended. Sir R. PEEL would no more think of refusing the grants to Maynooth and the Irish Education Board, than be would of proposing the sequestration of the property of the University of Dublin. Only in a dream could any statesman in his senses, not intent upon pulling down the fast rotting prop of Protestant ascendancy in Ireland, propose to himself the offering such an insult to the people of Ireland. As for the Orange faction, they have had their day, and must now make way for a race more tolerant in religion, and more moderate in poli tics. England can no longer afford to govern Ireland in accordance with the passions, and through the instrumentality, of a sect. Ireland is a Catholic country, and must henceforth be I governed upon principles agreeable to the reli gious, no less than to the political, feelings of the people, just as Scotland is governed. The Orange faction ought by this time to have learned all this, and much more. They had certainly time and opportunities enough before the late vacancy in the representation of the University. Surely the fact of the Lord Mayor of Dublin being a Roman Catholic, is of itself sufficient to prove to them that the sun of their glory has set for ever. There is still an absence of political new 3 of any moment in the French journals. They have exhausted the Eastern and Right of Search questions, and though anxiously gazing in all directions, they cannot discover so much as a hand's breadth of a cloud in the political horizon portentous of a tempest anywhere. The French Government has appointed Cap tain BOURT Governor of Senegal. It is reported that M. ROYER COLLARD has refused a Peerage, on account of the unconsti tutional judicial powers which the Peers arrogate to themselves. It is much more likely that M. ROYER COLLARD'Ef contempt for the French Peerage prevents his acceptance of so question able a distinction. The St.. Petersburgh Journal of the 30th ult. for mally denies the existence of conspiracies to assassinate the Emperor, and adds, that the festivities commemo rative of the 25th anniversary of the Emperor's mar riage had been celebrated, as set down in the pro• gramme, with pomp and magnificence, and that they had taken place in the island of Jelagin and at Peter -1)(4 the summer residence of the Court. "The King of Prussia," adds that journal, "assisted at all the feasts. He was seen walking about, sometimes alone, and sometimes with the Emperor and Empress. He was likewise present at all the reviews and parades ; and, if there had been only two conspirators, it would have been easy for them to make an attempt against the lives of the two Sovereigns, they having no escort nor means of defence. The King of Prussia fixed the day of his departure immediately. on his arrival." The Moniteur of to-day publishes in its official part an ordinance of the 10th, by which M. Villemain, Minister of Public Instruction, is to exercise, ad interim, the functions of Minister of the Interior. M. Duchatel, the Minister of the Interior, will set out to-day for the department of the Gironde. It seems that the King will shortly return from the Chateau d'Eu. A part of the household has been sent to-day to St. Cloud, in order to prepare every thing for his Majesty's reception. The accounts received to-day at Paris, represent the indisposition of the Kingof Hanover as very serious. His Majesty was still at Dusseldorf, in the palace of the Prince of Solms, where the ablest physicians had arrived from different places.. But, at the departure of the last accounts, the symptoms of the disorder were still very alarming. The King is now in his 72d year, and the Prince Royal, his son, in his 24th year.

Locusts are not confined exclu3ively to Greece, for, thanks to Sir IL Peel's Income-tax, they swarm abundantly in England, where, under the unsightly form of tax gatherers, they are occasioning a world of tribulation and anxiety. Such ravages as these pestilent vermin threaten to commit on the exchequers of all respect able individuals By•the fifth of next month there will not be a decent breeches-pocket left uninjured by their depredations. The seven plagues of Egypt com bined were scarcely a greater public nuisance than this one plague of locust tax-gatherers, which, we are warned, is to last for three years, in order that we may have ample opportunity of appreciating the severity of the visitation.
