PIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS, What is true of individuals is, we presume, true of the great plurals, the editors of newspapers. In pro portion as a man finds himself in the wrong, he works himself into a passion. The Times, a great master of the vulgar tongue, was yesterday peculiarly foul mouthed : " vulgar impertinence," " jackanapes," " simpleton" " conjuror," conceited prig," " the scribe," " small-minded pedant," " calumniator ;" these, together with the more usual elegancies of " abominable falsehood," " impudent liar," are a few of the fl owers p resente d to us , i n yester d a y' s nosegay, out of the rhetorical hotbed of Print ing-house-square. The truth is, that not a ' of the former success of the leading j has arisen from the pleasure which the grea mass of readers feel in the exposure of their ene mies ; yes, and of their friends too. There is a satisfaction in seeing such terms as " knaves," " boobie," " poor creatures," " insane wretches," " zanies," " incurable blockheads," &c., applied to anybody and everybody ; and it is impossible not to smile when a scavenger, all bemired himself, tosses his mud and filth by shovels-ful about him ; and is always the most vigorous and active in his dirty vocation, when the best-dressed and most decent-looking man crosses his path. There is scarce a public character which the Blackfriars nightman has not bespattered in his turn. Every honest man must make up his mind to the abuse of the Times once at least in his life ;—it is like what the wise Frenchman said of marriage---" Il Taut . passer par la." But our snappish cont em p orar y is never so tru l y ra bid and hard-bitten as when he is angry with himself : that is the case just now. He has made a wrong cast, and has a long, miry, roundabout way to run, before lie can get upon the right scent, and join the old popular pack again. 'Tis a savage mongrel, it must be confessed ; and one of his tricks is, after giving a suspicious growl or two at the heels of his master, to bark when he stumbles, and fly upon him the moment he is down. The Times begins to suspect the experiment will not succeed. According to him the very formation of the new Government is doubtful. His phrase is, " We hope this will be a hint to the new Administration, if it should be formed." If—if : " talk'st thou to me of ifs ?" Is it come to this ? Why, it was only a day or two ago that, according to the same sagacious authority, the great mass, indeed the whole of the wealth and sense of the community, were pressed to support the Duke and Sir Robert, and it was only the vile mob who raised the voice of clamour and discontent. If so, what does the man mean by his " ifs ?" Has Lord Stanley's refusal, or the coyness of dear James, done this ? He had better tell the truth at once ; but if he will not, we will for him. The Conservatives have no chance—that is the fact. The constituencies are not to be betrayed into self-destruction. The people feel that the late Govern ment have been treated with less ceremony and decent pretext for dismissal, than the confidential servants of any British Sovereign have a right to demand at his hands. The people know that the real cause of that dismissal was the determination of the Govern ment to give to them the full results of the Reform Act. The people regard the late Ministers, there fore, as martyrs to the cause. The people look upon the means resorted to in order to displace these Ministers, with disF,ust and abhorrence. They see in the immediate appointment of the Duke of Welling ton a bold contempt of public opinion, which they are resolved to meet with equal scorn. They see in the audacious usurpation of all the powers of State by this one hateful man, a token of what the friends of liberty in this country might expect from the domina tion of the Duke, if his power were equal to his will. They see, at the same time, in the base and nefarious attempt to reconcile this man and his deputy to them as converts to all the reforms which they opposed up to the last vote of the last Session of Parlia ment, a specimen of the morality of those very mean politicians by whom the dirty work of the new Government must be done, if it is done at all. To the amazement caused by the coup d'etat at Brighton, and the interregnum of the Duke, has succeeded a deep determined feeling of disgust and resentment, at the impudent experiment now making of forcing back upon us the children and the champions of the old abominable system—the Goul burns, the Herrieses, the Granville Somersets, the Billies Lowther and Holmes, the Dawsons, the Hardinges, and Horace Twisses—the quarter-day apostate patriots, and all the offensive half-forgotten, who lorded it over us in the old boroughmongering days, which we fully thought were never to return. The people, we say, will not suffer these men to be their masters again. They will not bear them under their old master the Duke, and his colours ; nor will they allow themselves to be cheated by them, under the false pretences of his demure de• puty. The elections will soon decide the question, at once and for ever. Neither force nor fraud can give these impudent adventurers an increase to their present force of more than thirty or forty votes ; and what will that strength be ? not a fourth of the total number of the House I All the counties put together, in England, Ireland, and Scotland, return only 254 Members ; and if these so called Conservatives had them all—what then ? But some of these deluded men say they have 280 or 300 secure. It is not true ; but suppose it were—what then ?In the one case, the smooth-faced gentleman on the Treasury Bench meets Parliament with a ma jority of 98 ; in the other, of 58 against him. Did ever Minister dare to do this before, after a dissolu tion? Has any man a right, with suc'h prospects, to make such an experiment ? Has he a right to throw the country into confusion by the dissolution of a two years Parliament ? Where is the precedent for such conduct ? We hope and we believe that the first day of the next session will not pass over without a motion of inquiry as to who dared to advise his Majesty to dismiss his late Government —wh o dared to advise him to dismiss his late Parliament, without cause of com plaint against either the Government or the Parlia ment, and without any chance of administering the affairs of the country by other men, or with other measures.--Morning Chronicle. From various quarters we learn that the Tories are at their old work of intimidating electors. It is a bitter mockery to giv'e the franchise to men, without allowing them to exercise it according to their own judgment. Before the Reform Bill, when representa tion was virtual, not real, and boroughs were private property, corruption in one shape or other was the rule, and independent voting the exception ; but the Reform Bill had for object to put an end to this state of things ; and care was taken to exclude from the franchise those who, from proverty and other circum stances, were presumed to be incapable of enlightened exercise of it. It was intended by the Reform Bill that the vote should be really and truly that of the individual who possesses the suffrage, and no other person's. But if intimidation and corruption be to lerated, the vote is not that of the individual intimidated or corrupted, but that of the inti midator or corruptor. It is of immense conse quence that the spirit of the Reform Bill, as re gards independent voting, should not be departed from. We trust that in all places the Reformers will carefully note down every instance of attempts to influence electors by intimidation, giving all the par ticulars connected with them, as it is intended to bring every case of intimidation before a Com mittee of the House of Commons, with a view to proceedings against the offending parties, and measures for the protection of voters in time to come. Reformers will see, therefore, that it is of the utmost consequence to exert themselves with diligence, to procure the most ample informa tion with respect to all attempts to influence voters by threatening them with pecuniary loss, either by the withdrawal of custom, or in any other way, in consequence of the conscientious exercise of their suffrages. The various indirect means artfully re sorted to, with a view to avoid liability to a charge of distinct intimidation, ought also to be noticed. The of is, the biassing by undue means the voters ; and, therefore, whatever is intended to influence them otherwise than by argument and persuasion, ought to be carefully registered. We trust that country papers in the liberal interest will take care to give every publicity to these suggestions, and return o the subject from time to time, that electors may be ourna, THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1834. fully aware of. the importance of the course recom mended to them ; for it is of the greatest consequence that all acts of intimidation should be recorded at the time they are committed. We have only further to add, that we trust all Reform Candidates will at the hustings absolvs, in the fullest manner, all persons who have been influenced to vote by intimidation, from the promise given under such circumstances, leaving them at perfect liberty to vote agreeably to the suggestions of their own unbiassed judgment. The effect of a careful attention to these suggestions will be to bring the names of genders of every rank before Parlia ment, and consequently before the public, by which means their conduct will be held up to the reprobation it so justly merits::—Morning Chronicle. In reference to the progress of the Ministerial ar rangements, as far as they were supposed to depend upon Lord Stanley's adhesion to the Cabinet, or refusal of office, we had the following paragraph yesterday : " Those who entertain the opinion that Lord Stanley has declined office, while he is understood to have promised his support to the Government, are, we believe, nearer the truth than those who assert that he will become at the pre sent time a member of the new Administration ; but we do not profess to have any positive knowledge upon the subject." Though we (lid not speak " from authority," our anticipation of the result of the application to Lord Stanley has been confirmed by the Albion of last night, which had the following statement : " Lord Stanley, although expected at his house in town last night, and this morning., has not arrived. We under stand, however, that a letter has been received by the Premier from that Noble Lord, which leaves no doubt upon the subject of his unwillingness to take office at the present moment. " It is not true, however, as is insinuated with rather less than its usual clumsiness by a morning print, that Lord Stanley has expressed hostility to the new Government, and that he is likely to throw the weight of his influence into the scale of opposition. His Lordship's letter does not warrant any such conclusion. On the contrary, though it disappoints the hopes which were formed of his co-opera • tion in the Government, it gives the strongest reason to believe, that to a system of policy which aims at honest improvement, and steady resistance to Destructive prin ciples, the Noble Lord will heartily give his Parliamentary assistance." The Albion then goes on to make the following ad ditional statement, which, we believe, from all we can hear, to be correct : " We do not believe that any appointments have been finally made in addition to those before the public two days ago. We presume, however, that very little delay will now take place in filling up all the principal offices. " We have reason to believe, that as soon as the Admi nistration is formed, an opportunity will be taken to declare authoritatively, the course of policy which will be pursued." The formation of the new Cabinet and the leading , principles of its policy may soon, therefore, be ex pected to be announced. Last night's Gazette an nounces the further p rorogat i on of Parliament to Thursday, the 18th of January. The only Ministerial appointment it contains is that of Sir Robert Peel to the offices of Chancellor and Under Treasurer of his Majesty's Exchequer.—Morning Herald. Though it is natural enough that Ministers, who ever they may be, should prefer praise to censure, as well as give credit to their Sovereign for partaking of the same inclination, yet that, we think, can scarcely justify the practice, so frequently resorted to, when addresses pour in to the Throne, of giving authentic publicity to only such as are of a eulogistic character. This practice, we see, is had recourse to on the pre sent occasion, and would, we are convinced, be far more honoured in the breach. There is an appearance of weak, resentful vindictiveness about it, quite un worthy of the parties or the occasion. The right of petitioning the Throne and the Legislature is un doubted ; and, as long as the language employed is unobjectionable, the nature of the communication ought in no respect to influence the tone or manner of its reception. We know of no rule which requires a public announcement of the receipt of such documents, still less their publication, in the London Gazette—a publication seen by none but the very few whom cir cumstances compel to be its purchasers, and to whom the price is enormously enhanced by this mere empty homage to vanity. At all events, if any of these pro ductions should be published, it surely ought to be applied to all. Unpleasant truths are not always the least valuable ; while to treat with contempt those who avail themselves of an undoubted right, merely because they do so in an unpalatable manner, is no proof either of wisdom or firmness.—Morning Herald. For once the Morning Chronicle, in its number of yesterday, spoke truth. Lord Stanley has declined joining the present Ministry, but how declined ? In dignantly, or in terms or language which would indi cate a decided hostility to the principles and character of the new Government ? No. Lord Stanley's an swer to the communication of Sir Robert Peel is in the highest respect satisfactory. We do not mean only as regards the individual to whose letter his Lordship's refusal is an answer, but to those who value the hap piness and prosperity of our beloved country. It does not appear to us, supposing we had the means that it would be proper to enter in detail upon the character of Lord Stanley's reply. We have no such means ; but we believe enough has been collected from the most authentic sources to show that whatever disinclination —perhaps we might say delicacy—Lord Stanley feels as to re suming office, his reasons for the resolution to which he has come are perfectly satisfactory, as they conduce to the entire establishment of all the qualities which even his bitterest political opponents have ever ascribed to him. We regret that his Lordship has declined his ministerial co-operation. We look, never theless, for his personal support in Parliament. We conclude that Sir James Graham will follow the ex ample of refusal. Indeed our able contemporary, the Albion, of last night states that Sir Jam s has actually done so. If that paper is correct in its statement, it has the merit of obtaining very early information, be cause we believe we may safely say that, long after it went to press yesterday, no answer had been re ceived in London from Sir James to the letter from Sir Robert Peel. The refusal of Lord Stanley, however, is come, and Sir Robert Peel is left to form a Government—but how left ? Left after hav ing given earnest of the sincerity of his desire to form a Ministry, combining all the different ele ments of Conservatism. Certain we are, that the materials are at hand ; but equally certain are we, re lying upon the evidence of what Sir Robert Peel has already evinced his anxiety to do, that a selection must be made from amongst those materials, utterly regardless of former claims and of official precedents. The country requires a firm, compact, active, and inde pendent Ministry ; and we say again that by his invi tation to Lord Stanley and Sir James Graham Sir Robert Peel has evinced his disposition to form such a Government, and with that disposition we also say that Sir Robert Peel is sure of the support of the people. Before what we are now writing will be seen by our readers very many of the appointments in the new Ministry will probably be made. It is absolutely necessary they should be made forthwith, because until they are announced the people will not be able to judge of the claims which a Conservative Administra tion will assert to the confidence and the countenance of the country. Of course we must wait ; but we hope by Monday to be able to congratulate our friends upon the completion of such arrangements as may be satis factory to the majority of a nation in which the Con servative principle is decidedly in the ascendant.-- Morning Post. As we have nothing to tell, we shall not make " much ado about nothing." Lord Stanley is said to be on his way to town ; the contents of the letter which arrived yesterday morning have not transpired, but from no additional appointment having been made, it is inferred that his Lordship will not take office, however cordially he may afford his unofficial support. As the possibility of Lord Stanley's declining a seat in the Cabinet must have been contemplated, we suppose that no time will now be lost in arranging the Administra tion. We trust that the members will be such as the public can confide in for the high integrity of their character, the soundness of their judgments, and their enlightened and liberal sentiments. The Cabinet once formed should find or make some very early opportu nity for a declaration of their intended policy. If that policy shall be declared to be decidedly liberal witho u t being destructive, if it s h a ll corres pond with the re forming but not subverting spirit of all reasonable men of whatever party, then the new Government may fearlessly appeal to the people, and set at nought the yells of the factious, whether Radical demagogues, or high-flying fanatics. Party has had its day ; let it be seen whether the machine of State cannot be worked, though its conductor may not be a mere mouth-piece of a Whig or a Tory family. At all events, we hope and believe that the constitution is strong enough to stand firm amidst the angriest shocks of conflicting parties, and will never fall beneath the blows, however furious, of profligate and desperate anarchists.— Times. The Tory party, as we surmised, are all but dead beaten. Stanley has refused to join them, and, if we are rightly informed, has signified that he felt insulted by the proposal. The decision of Sir James Graham cannot well be different ; and the result, as reported in well-informed quarters last night, is, that Peel has sig nified his disinclination to head or take any part in the Cabinet. We do not vo uc h f or thi s y information being correct; but we believe that we may state that Sir R. Peel complains bitterly of his having been de ceived by his party, both with respect to the state of the country, and to the inclination of Stanley, Graham. and Richmond, to form part of his Cabinet. Heigh-ho we always expected that it would come to this ; but let not the Reformers be thrown off their guard by the occurrence of such difficulties in the formation of an anti-Reform Cabinet. The crisis is come, and if the present opportunity escape them they may wait for years before it returns.—Morning Advertiser. VICE-CHANCERY COURT, DEc. 12. IN THE MATTER OF LONG, AN INFANT. Sir EWDARD SUGDEN said this was the petition of Mr Sandys, the mother of the infant, that her child should be permitted to spend the Christmas holidays with her, and that an allowance should be made for the child's support during that time, and the expenses of her journey to London defrayed out of the annual allowance for the infant's main tenance. Mr. KNIGHT, for the guardian and trustees of the infant, opposed the application. The property to which the infant was entitled was settled upon her by her mether after her first husband's death. In consequence of the difficulties of her second husband she became so distressed that the comfort and education of the child was wholly neglected, till at length the guardian inter fered, and the Court took the child from the mother's pro tection, reserving to her all opportunities of reasonable in tercourse. Affidavits were read to show that the same distress which originally induced the Court to interfere with the parental rights still existed. His HoNotia said it appeared to him that the very pe tition which was presented was of itself a strong indication of the circumstances of distress still continuing, which were alluded to in the earlier affidavits. Petition refused with costs. ANDREW V. ANDREW. Mr. WHITMARSH stated that the petition in this cause prayed a confirmation of the Master's report as to the pro per settlement to be made on a young lady, a ivard of Court, who married a gentleman of the name of Ensor at Gretna-green. The petition also prayed that the trustees of the young lady might be at liberty to consent to the re marriage of the parti es i n thi s country. His HONOUR refused the latter part of the prayer. The parties were at liberty to take what steps they pleased in re spect to a second marriage. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE GOLDSMITHS' COMPANY. This cause came on upon demurrer for multifariousness. The information stated a devise to the Company in the 1400, by a person of the name of Wood, of fourteen houses in Cheapside, in trust to assist poor young men free of the Company with loans of money ; and it charged that there were various other donations to the Company by other persons, in trust, for making loans to poor young men generally, all of which charities had been long misapplied. It proceeded, then, to seek a discovery as to these latter charities. Sir E. SUDDEN, on the part of the Company, contended that Wood's charity, and the charities included in the gene ral charities, were not at all in pari materia, and ought not to be confounded in the one suit. Mr. COOPER, in support of the information, insisted tha this demurrer deviated from the ordinary form of a de. murrer for multifariousness. The demurrer was allowed, with leave to amend, by con fining the information to Wood's charity. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DEC. 12. THE KING V. ROGERS, WATTS, AND OTHERS. This was an indictment for a libel arising out of the many disputes that have lately been before the Courts on the subject of the property called the Swinton Estate, near Bagnigge Wells. One of the cottages on that estate having been pulled down by the owner, the defendant Rogers, in conjunction with several other persons who had set up claims to different tenements on the estate, presented an indict ment against the owner to the Grand Jury of the county of Middlesex and the persons who had assisted him. A true bill was found by the Grand Jury on the 7th of May last, against seven of the parties, but was ignored as to the rest. On the same day, however, the defendant Rogers had a placard printed, headed " Felony," offering 10001. reward for the apprehension of any of the parties against whom he had presented his bill of indictment, and enumerating them all by the name, including those with respect to whom the bill had been ignored. A thousand copies of this placard were circulated in the neighbourhood of Bagni g ge Wells, where the greater numb er o f th e part i es res id e d . Previous to publishing the placard the defendant Rogers went to se veral of the prosecutors and offered for a certain sum of money to keep their names out of it, but they all refused to make any compromise with him, and the present indictment was preferred by those against whom the Grand Jury had refused to find the bill. A verdict was given for the Crown and an application made to the Court to postpone judgment fora few days. Lnrd DENMAN acceded to the application, and put off ving judgment till Monday. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, DEC. 12. CRANCH V. WHITE. This was an action of trover to recover a bill of ex change for 2001., which it was alleged had improperly come into the possession of the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff had, to accommodate a man named Roberts, ac cepted the bill in question, and that he had taken it to get it discounted, in order to meet another bill that was already due. Roberts, however, instead of doing this, paid it away to the defendant in part settlement of an account which he owed to the defendant. It was proved that, a short tale after he had received the bill, the defendant was infor.ned of the real nature of the transaction, and evidence was given to show that he had not satisfied himself as he ought at the time of taking it, that it was really the property of Roberts. The Jury returned a verdict declaring that the transac tion was not Lona fide, which was entered as a verdict for the plaintiff, subject to a motion in the Court above. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.—DEc. 12. CARTWRIGHT V. BACON. This was an action brought by ;Cie Plaintiff, an under taker residing at Bromley, in Kent, to recover from the de fendant compensation in damages for an assault. Mr. PLATT stated the case. The plaintiff and defendant were neighbours, and both admirers of the manly game of cricket. His client was a member of the Bromley Club, and the defendant belonged to the Kent-road Club. On the 22d of August a match took place at Bromley, where the plaintiff and defendant met, and words ensued in con sequence of some misunderstanding arising out of a bet which the plaintiff and defendant had made relative to the skill of their respective Clubs. The defendant, without giving the slightest notice of his intention, rose and struck the plaintiff. The result of the blow was a pair of black eyes, a swollen face, and a broken nose. He therefore trusted that the Jury would give the plaintiff such ample damages as would teach the defendant a lesson which be would not quickly forget.—The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 101. How TO CURE A COUGH.—" Well, Mrs. Lana gan, did you put the blister on your chest, as you promised, and did it rise ?" " Why, then, mistress dear, the niver a chest I had to put it on, but sure and I have a little bit of a box, and I put it on that, but sorra a rise it rose; and if ye dont believe me come and see, for it's sticking there still, I'm thinking." NOVEL MODE OF PROTECTING GAME.--Part of the road leading from Whissendine to Melton Mowbray lies through the preserves of the Earl of Harborough, upon which about a dozen boys with clappers, horns, rattles, and various other instruments more noisy than musical, are stationed ; on the appearance of any person with a gun upon the road, he is quickly surrounded by this clamorous group, who ply their various engines with such a vengeance as not only to frighten the game beyond the shooting distance of the sus pected individual, but absolutely to put many of his Majesty's harmless equestrian lieges in bodily fear. This uproarious little band is marshalled and disciplined by two men, one acting as commander-in-chief, and the other as a sort of adju tant; if the boys be not in sight of the principal or his assistant when a stranger appears, they are summoned to the s p ot b y a sort of stent or i an " Yoicks" and " Hallo" that would do credit to the lungs of a practiced huntsman ; forthwith the uproar commences, and it continues till the poor persecuted Right is beyond the limits of the manor.—Lincoln Mercury, SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOW The Smithfield Club opened their annual exhibition yes terday, at the Repository in Goswell-street, for the display of prize fat cattle. The show was very numerously at tended, and the fine quality and condition of the beasts ex cited general admiration. CATTLE. In the first class, a premium of twenty sovs. was awarded to Mr. Robert Smith, of Burley, near Oakham, for his 4-year and 11 months' old short horned ox ; bred by Mr. Richard Hough, of Threakingham. A silver medal was awarded to Mr. Hough, as the breeder. In the second class a premium of 20 sovs. was adjudged to Earl Spencer, for his 4-year and 6-months' old Durham ox ; bred on his Lordship's farm at Wiseton, and fed at Aithorp oa mangel wurzel, turnips, and 1,1271 b of oil cake. A silver medal, as the breeder of the ox, was also adjudged to Earl Spencer. The second premium in this class, of 10 sovs., was awarded to Mr. Spraggett, of Chadshurst, Warwick, for his 5-year and 8-month's old Durham ox ; bred by Mr. Bellamy, of Haseley, and fed on Swede turnips and 8001 b of oil cake. These three beasts travelled upwards of 100 miles to the show. In class three, a premium of 15 sovs was awarded to Mr. 11. Oldacres, of Cestersover, near Luttersvorth, for a Hereford ox, 2-years and 8-months old ; bred by Sir Francis Lawley, Bart., and fed on 560 lb of oil cake, three bushels of barley meal, grass and hay. A silver medal as the breeder of the ox, was awarded to Sir Francis Lawley. Mr. Oldacre's Durham ox, from Chepstone (one of the finest in the yard), was disqualified from this class, by being overweight. The animal was sold to Mr. Bannister, the butcher, for (it was said) the sum of 50/. There were several other very fine cattle in this class, and the judges, it seems, were so much puzzled to decide which was the best, that they withheld the second premium. In class four, Mr. Oldacres was again successful, the pre mium of 10 sovs. having been awarded to him for his 3-year and 9-months old Hereford ox. A silver medal was also awarded to Sir Francis Lawley, as the breeder of this ox. The second premium of five sovs. in this class was awarded to Mr. Bailey, of Shenley House, Stony Stratford, for his 3-years and 9-months' old Hereford ox. COWS. The premium of 15 sows. was awarded to the Marquis of Exeter for a Durham heifer, 4 years and 10 months old, bred by his Lordship at Burleigh. A silver medal was also awarded to the Noble Marquis as the breeder of the cow. A prize of 15 soy& adjudged to Earl Brownlow for a Durham cow, 5 years old, bred by his Lordship at Belton, near Grantham. A silver medal was also adjudged to the Earl, as the breeder of the cow. The former animal travelled 90, and the latter 112 miles, in waggon, to the show. THE GOLD MEDAL The gold medal to the breeder of the best beast in any of the above classes, was adjudged to Earl Spencer, for a very fine Durham ox, decidedly the best in the Repository, 4 years and six months old., SHEEP. The sheep were hi such fine - condition, that it must have been extremely difficult for the judges to decide which were best. The gold medal, to the breeder of the best pen of long woolled wethers, was adjudged to Mr. William Pawlett, of Barmack, near Stamford, for his three, under 21 months' old, Leicester wethers. The gold medal to the breeder of the best pen of short woolled fat wethers, was awarded to Thomas Ellman, Esq., of Beddingham, near Lewes, for his 3 months' old Southdowns. A premium of 10 sovs. was adjudged to Mr. Pawlett, for three long-woolled fat wether sheep, under 21 months' old. A silver medal was also adjudged to Mr. Pawlett, as the breeder of the sheep. A prize of 5 sovs. in the same class, was adjudged to the Marquis of Exeter, for three 20 months' old Leicester wethers, bred by his Lordship, at Burleigh. A premium of 10 sovs. and a silver medal was awarded to Mr. Painter, of Burley, near Oakham, for three fat wether sheep, under 34 months' old, bred and fed by hitbself. For short-woolled fat wether sheep, 10 sovs. was adjudged to Thomas Ellman, Esq., for three months' old Southdown wether, and a silver medal as the breeder. A second premium of 5 sovs. was awarded to S. Gran tham, Esq., for three 20 months' old Southdown wethers. Another premium of 10 sovs. was awarded to Mr. Grantham, for three 32 months' old Southdown wethers, and a silver medal as the breeder. PIGS. The Earl of Harborough was awarded the premium of 10 sovs. for three 26 weeks' old Neapolitan -and Chinese Pigs, bred by his Lordship at Stapleford, near Melton, and fed on barley and wheat flour and skim milk. The silver medal, as the breeder of the pigs, was also adjudged to his Lordship. The second premium of 5 sovs. was awarded to Mr. George Chandler, of Kingston, Surrey, for three little pigs, which were certainly the pets of the yard. They were Surrey pigs, 16 weeks old, bred by Mr. Chandler himself, and fed on meal and milk. EXTRA STOCK. The silver medal to the exhibitor of the best fat beast in the extra stock, was adjudged to R. W. Baker, Esq., of Cottesmere, near Stamford, for his 4 year and 8 months' old short-horned ox, bred by the Marquis of Exeter, at Burleigh. A silver medal to the exhibitor of the best fat long woolled sheep, as extra stock, was awarded to Mr. John Beasley, of Chapel Brompton, Northampton, for his 5-year old Leicester ewe. A silver medal to the exhibitor of the best fat short wooled sheep, as extra stock, was adjudged to Thomas Ellman, Esq., of Beddingham, for his two year old South down wether. A silver medal to the exhibitor of the best fat pig, as extra stock, was awarded to the Marquis of Tavistock, for his nine months' old Suffolk pig, bred on his Lordship's farm at Oakley. The sweepstakes between Lord Huntingfield and the Duk e of Richmond, of five sovereigns, for th e b es t fi ve Southd own s h ear li ng wet h ers, was adjuged to the Duke of Richmond. The Judges in the cattle classes commended Sir Felix Booth's Hereford ox, and Mr. Christopher Smith's Here f6rd ox in class one ; all the oxen shown in class 2, gene rally, but particularly a very fine Hereford ox, exhibited by Lord Orford's Mr. T. F. Johnson's short-horned heifer, and Mr. W. Hayward's Durham heifer in class 5 ; and Mr. C. Hillyard's Durhum cow, in class 6. Amongst the beasts in extra stock, they commended Sir Felix Booth's Hereford ox. Amongst the sheep in extra stock; the Judge-, com mended the Marquis of Exeter's Mr. Pawlett's, and Mr. •R. lledgrave's Leicester sheep, and Mr. S. Grantham's Southdown wethers. The Judges also commended Mr. W. Orchard's Hert ford and Essex pig, Mr. George Chandler's Surrey pigs, and a very large pi g , 13 months' old, exhibit e d b y M r. Bennett, of MarketHarhorough. Mr. Bennett's pig did him great credit as a feeder. He lay in the pen quite in sensible to the busy scene that was passing around, and he was so extremely fat that it was difficult to discover his bead from his other end. PLANTS, SEEDS, &c. In the upper part of the Repository a large quantity of plants, seeds, &c., were exhibited, selected from the stocks of Messrs. Gibbs and Co., Mr. Thomas Gibbs, and Messrs. Cormack' and Co. A mong th em were some o f the largest specimens of mangel wurzel, Hungarian turnips, and the common English turnip, carrot, and parsnip, which had grown to an enormous size. Several very large heads of celery were produced by Mr. Cormack, which, that gen tleman stated, were the largest ever grown in this country. On the opposite side of this part of the building several portions of plants were produced, showing the decay and defects of trees. Among them were several plants of En glish oak, exhibiting their defects from having been pruned, and other specimens of a similar kind. The exhibition gave very great satisfaction, and was vi sited in the course of the day by Earl Spencer, and a grea many other gentlemen interested in agricultural affairs. During the past month about 5,000 persons visited the Zoological-gardens in the Regent's -park. Among other improvements in contemplation are pits for the protection of tender plants, and the enlargement of the conservatory to double its present size. A discovery has just been made in Brusssels of twelve small pictures on wood, on copper, and on an enamelled snuff-box, without doubt the best works of the greatest Dutch and Flemish painters. They are-1. The Portrait of Admiral de Ruyter, by Rembrandt. 2. A street in Leyden, by Jan Steen ; the painter has here represented a proposal in mar riage, which he made to a certain widow Herculeus, his neigh bour. 3. The portrait of Maurice of Nassau, by Vanderneuf. 4. Portrait of the painte r , F. Mi ers, by himself, painted at the age of 23 years. 5. Portrait of William the First, by Mirevelt. 6. Portrait of Louis of Nassau, by the same. 7. Portrait of William John of Nassau, by the same. 8. Por trait of Philip of Nassau, by the same. 9. Portrait of Frede rick Henry, by Gonzales Coques. 10. Portrait of Justinian de Nassau, by the same. 11. A Landscape, by G. Net scher, in which is represented the Death of Mary Magdalen. 12. A Landscape, by Netscher, representing the course of the Rhine near Treves ; Genevieve de Brabant h as just been left at the foot of a tree with her child. 13, &van pictures of Netscher, painted by himself on a small enamel table. These pictures, which belonged to M. D. C., Inten dant and Chamberlain of William the Fourth, have been packed up ever since the entry of the French into Holland in 1794, and have only been opened a very short time. The owner, M. D. V., who has married the grand,daughter a the intendant, has but a few days been aware of the prize which he possesses. STATE OF PUBLIC OPINION. SOUTHAMPTON. (From the Morning Chronicle.) A great meeting of the freeholders and friends of the two representatives (Lord Palmerston and Sir George Staunton) of the southern division of the county of Hants, took place on Thursday last at Southampton. The meet ing was held in the Long-room, situated in Simnel -street, and at one o'clock the handsome and spacious apartment (capable of containing upwards of a thousand persons) was completely filled. The gallery was crowded with ladies. The Noble Lord and Honourable Baronet, on entering the room, were received with enthusiastic cheers. Amongst those who appeared upon the platform we perceived Mr. G. Atherley (brother of the present representative of the borough), Mr. Easthope (one of the candidates for the representation of the borough), Mr. Young, Mr. J. Drew, Admiral Ommaney, Mr. Nightingale, and many other freeholders of the county distinguished for their liberal principles. On the motion of Admiral OMMANEY, seconded by Mr. DREW, Mr. Nightingale was unanimously voted to the Chair. Admiral OMMANEY then came forward to move the first resolution. They were assembled on that day to express their feelings upon the conduct of the—(he would not ven ture to touch upon the name of the Sovereign)--but he might venture to say, that they were assembled to express their feelings upon the manner in which the King's prero gative had been exercised by those about him.—(Applause.) Looking at the parties who had again (unhappily —most unhappily, as he conceived) obtained the reins of Govern ment, they must expect a gretit contest—a great struggle, to secure to themselves the .exercise of those rights which they had obtained by their determined conduct, and which it was the object of the Reform Act to continue to them.— (Cheers.) The time had arrived when it was necessary that the same determination which had procured for them the passing of that great measure should again be evinced ; because, if the rights and privileges, and every thing which Englishmen held dear, were sold and transferred from them by the corruption which had crept into the old abominable House of Commons, so at the present moment the same rights and privileges were likely to be endangered by the policy of those whom his Majesty, in an ill-advised hour, had again called to his councils.—(Cheers.) The Gallant Admiral concluded by moving the following resolution : " That in order to secure to the people the full and efficient operation and benefit of the great principles of reform, it is desirable to send only such men to Parliament as have proved by their vast conduct that they are worthy of our confidence ; and cordially approving of the liberal and enlightened princi ples, and honourable and independent conduct, of our present representatives, the Right Hon. Lord Viscount Palmerston and Sir George Thomas Staunton, Bart., we consider them eminently qualified again to represent the Southern Division of this County in the event of a dissolution of Parliament, and we do pledge ourselves to give them our most active and zea lous support." Mr. BEST said that the resolution which had just been read was a strong one, but he had great pleasure in second ing it.—The re so l u ti on was rea d an d carr i ed unanimously. Lord PALMERSTON then came forward, and was received with loud and long-continued cheering. The Noble Lord spoke to the following effect—Gentlemen, it was my lot to preside over the department upon the administration of which mainly depended the foreign relations of the country, and questions of peace and war. It was my earnest endea vour, or rather I should say, it was my determined object, on accepting that office, to labour for the 'preservation of peace—(Loud cheers)—and however difficult of accom plishment that purpose might four years ago have appeared —however desperate it was by sonic men thought to be— yet, in the result, it has been shown that my endeavours have not failed ; for, during the four years that I had the honour of presiding over the Foreign Department, peace has been preserved—(Cheers) —a n d peace, I trust, has been preserved not only without any derogation to the ho nour of this country, but by a course of policy which has placed the character and honour of the country, if possible, upon a prouder eminence than that upon which it ever stood at any former period.—(Cheers.) We have succeeded in conciliating the friendship of States whose friendship is not only an advantage, but, I contend, an honour for this coun try to possess. We have converted old and almost here ditary enemies into staunch and zealous friends. It has been thought by many, as has been stated by my excel_ lent friend by whom this resolution was seconded, that the late Government did not sufficiently execute the principle of improvement and reform upon which they originally founded their claim to the confidence of the country. If I may be allowed to say so, I think that those who cast that —I will not call reproach—but that those who express that unfavourable opinion with regard to us, have taken either a hasty and imperfect view of what we actually did do, and of the difficulties with which we had to contend—(Hear, hear)--and that fixing their eyes, as eager and anxious men are apt to do, on the object immediately before them, they have not looked with sufficient attention at the benefits which the late Government have left behind them. In the course of the four years that we were in office, we accom plished that which, perhaps, at no former period could have been obtained, and under no other combination of circum stances could well have been carried into effect, I mean the great reform which has been made in the constitution of Parliament.—(Cheers.) We carried that measure as the basis of everything else—(Cheers)—and until that measure became the law of the land, it was utterly impossible that any other of those general improvements, which the persons whose opinions I have adverted to desire, could ever be brought under the consideration of Parliament. But I con tend that we have done more to improve the institutions of the country, and to confer more valuable advantages upon the people of England, than any other Government was able, or ever attempted, to accomplish.—(Cheers.) After recapitulating the various reforms which the late Go vernment had carried into execution, the Noble L or d went on to say :—I cannot persuade' myself that any fair and reasonable man will not express himself sa tisfied with that which the late Government was able, during its Administration, to effect.—(Loud cheers.) But we now appear before you in, perhops, the most im portant crisis that has ever yet been known in the history of this country ; for it is idle to think that this is the mere change of men in an A dministration—(cheers)—that it is merely one of those transfers of power from one set of men to another, of which the history of every constitu tional country contains many and frequent repetitions— this is an endeavour on the part. of a great body (for they are a great body) of men to transfer the administration of the affairs of the country from those who profess one set of principles to the hands of those who profess another set of principles—(loud cheers)—separated from the principles of those who have gone out by a great and indelible dis tinction.. I say, then, that we appeal before you under no ordinary circumstances, and that the appeal which we make to you is of no ordinary magnitude. I say that it is not a choice between individuals—the choice that you - are called upon to make is between principles, between the greatest and most vital principles ofgovernrnent.—(Cheers.) It has been said, I know, that a re-action has taken place. I can only say, that as far as my information goes, in the intercourse which I have had with those electors of this division of the county whom I have been able to visit since the canvass has commenced, I have seen any thing but a change of sentiment ; on the contrary, I have every where met with a fixed and resolute, but, at the same time, a calm, determination to abide by the principles which were professed and acted upon two years ago.—(Applause.) I have not seen re-action—(Cheers)—,but I have seen that occasionally which it gave me great pain to see—l have seen some honest men—l was going to say independent men—independent in their minds and principles, they are— unhappily for them, not so independent in their circum stances as they deserve to be-1 have seen some few men of that description, who, in their hearts, wished and were anxious to vote for me, but were deterred from expressing, their intention to do so by those influences which, unfortu nately, the state of all society enables some men to exer cise over others ; and evidently, though they did not say so, swayed by intimidation from giving expression, by their votes, to those feelings which the secret and honest work ings of their hearts indicated.—(Loud cheers,) I can only say, that, for my own part, I should shrink from support obtained for me by such means. It has been thought by some that our appeal to our consti tuents at the present moment is premature. From some with whom I have communicated in the course of my can vass, I have been met with the question, " There has been no dissolution—why do you call upon us prematurely to express our opinions ?" I say that 'there must be a disso lution, and in my opinion that dissolu4.!an cannot be delayed many days. I will tell you why I think a dissolution ab solutely inevitable : the government, as now constituted, cannot meet the House of Commons, composed as that House of Commonsnow is —(Cheers.) The new government could not meet parliament without declaring openly and decidedly what course of policy it was their intention to adopt. We are told by some of their friends that they are going to turn Reformers—(Loud laughter.) Other friends of theirs say, that if they do turn Reformers they will abandon them immediately, If they were to meet Parliament, then, they must state fairly whether they mean to be Reformers, or whethe r they mean to resist, as they have hitherto done, all reform. If they profess themselves Reformers, they would lose the support of their honest anti-reform friends, whilst they certainly would not gain the support of the genuine Reformers of England, who are too clear-sighted to trust to such sudden conversions, especially when accompanied with a removal from one side of the Honsg to the other.—(Laughter and cheers.) Bin by dissolving now they would have their friends go to the battle on the most advantageous terms, I shall not trespass longer upon the indula• nee h you _re , s h ow n m e, an d I assure you, th e at Oa ottn luw e seen (by my late personal intercourse) of the electors of the souther! division of Hants, the more proud I feel of the honourtheS have conferred upon me, and the more anxions - also to found deserving of their continued support.---(The I` l °4 Lord resume d his scat amidst a b urs t o f a ppl a u7e Ivi lle lasted for several minutes.) Sir GEORGE STAUNTON, on coming forward, was th . usiasti ca ll y c h eered. He addressed the meeting to Oct following effect :—Gentle men , no di sso l ut i on o f Parliametr„' has certainly yet taken place, but we have, unfortunnt °: :' too good evid ence o f our gracious Monarch having been a' hided (I might say), but at least ha;-inn been misled, into an opinion that a re-action has taken place in the count r ?'' and that it is no longer influenced by thoze sentiment' favour of reform w hi c h i t expressed in so decided, d f may say, in so glo r i ous , a manner in the last two elect i on s° 1831 and 1832. It is the determination we see of tbe r; b r i ng sent Government to this q ues ti on t o ' an mime test by a dissolutio n ; a n d I rejoice th a t i t i s so , since tt-„', Reform Bill h as g i ven a f ree expression of opinion to ni°`. e than 800,000 enlightened and independent electors Of tn is e:opire.—(Applause.) As that expression of opinion CO P : longer be neutralized by the corrupt or benumbing inbenc of a Gatton or Old Sarum, I feel confid en t - o f t h e r esult' (Cheers.) I, f or one , t h ere f ore, am ready to Come forc°l. to assist you i n carry i ng your i ntentions and feeling's i' o ' effect on this oc cas i on , upon t h e same principles and under t Cle same aus pi ces as I did on the former occasion, °eo l . you did roe th e h on o ur o f e l ect i ng me as one of gu representatives. Mr. G YTTON begged to move the following resolutio " That although the returns which have been received (lay by the Central Committee from the various districts °. the Southern Di v i s i on o f t hi s county are highly favourable' It is nevertheless the d u ty, an d most highly desirable, for e very freeholder f r i en dl y to t h e great principles of Reform, to ( 11 rt Lift:self to the uttermost to accomplish the object Ive have 1 , view, in the return of our favourite members again to P ar EaMent." Mr. GEORGE, of Romsey, seconded the resolution. Mr. J. DREW bad no doubt from the demonstratiolr, strength lately made at Portsea and Fareham, as we'' that day at Southampton, that the Noble Lord and 0 Hon. Baronet were secure of their re-election. The resolution was then put and carried unanimously' Mr. HOLMES, of Romsey, addressed a few observatiel, to the meeting ; afte r w hi c h Mr. EASTHOPR being loudly called for, came feo l ' r ' t amidst great cheering. The Noble Lord, to whose addr, we have listen e d w i t h so muc h pleasure, needs no recaO t , ti lation of his se rv i ces t o recommend him to your cordial , Lichment.--(Applause.) H e h as , indeed, done for 0 11 land that f or w hi c h E ng l an d will be proud, when he s 1:;), cease to exist.—(Loud cheers.) By a course of p Ol which cnmm en d s it se lf to every enlightened observer, no only has he kept the country in peace, when a factious u • P r : position were l ou dl y proc l a i m i ng all around that this coal.' would soon be, with the whole civilized world, in a flan le ;. not only has he maintained the tranquillity of Europe du i,l a period of gr ea t difficulty and emb arrassment, b ut be ' 3 , established it on a basis which promiSes to render it perT' ; , rent, and whi c h w ill g i ve to hi m a name, arid to the , nistration of which he was so distinguished a member'.) character of w hi c h h e may b e justly proud,--(Chee rs ' Looking im me di a t e l y to t h e purpose for which you nretio sembled, you will, I am sure, agree with the in saying , this is one of the most eventful struggles in'which E"g''' ever engaged.—(Applause.) It is not a season for 01 % 5 display. Every person who knows and values the of the country must deplore the recurrence of these ese',,, / ments—must regret th a t any occas i on should arise to drlts - from the pr osecu ti on o f i n d ustr i ous and Peaceful purs uits energies that m i g ht b e t h ere so well emplo yed.—(Appiaos; But this is the time when you are called upon to make as last exertion ; an d I am sure you will respond to the e3 ,' men who are alive to the importance of thec:risis.—(Cllr th - e By that exerti on w hi c h E ngland is proud of, and civilized world beheld with admiration and delight, you oa the Reform Bill : now, by exertions even greater than made then, you are called upon to demand its frv:its' (Loud cheers.) After a few observations from f Mr. URQ UHART , a Di ssent i ng minister, the thaw's. the meeting were voted to the. Chairman, who 'very b rie returned thanks, and the 'meeting dispersed.
