SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. So far as the elections have yet gone, they afford eis a reasonable hope that the feelings of the British nation will be fairly represented in the Parliament which is now in progress. Not only has Lord Grim ston been beaten out of St. Alban's ; Lord Ingestrie out of Hertford ; Lord Brecknock driven from Bath ; Sir John Shelley from Lewes ; and best of all, Mr. Ilan Davis from Bristol ; but Mr. Mundy is threatened with an almost certain overthrow in Derbyshire ; and all the " wisdom of our ancestors," personified by Mr. Bankes, is on the point of gettin g a severe rebuke from their posterity, the living elec tors of Dorset. But facts as well as expectatiehs so thicken upon us, that we cannot enumerate them, and have indeed little space for comment. Nothi ng can surpass the public enthusiasm, or the success which has hitherto attended the exertions of the people. We tell them, however, that thes e s t ill i s ample ground for apprehension, if the lovers of liberty suspend or relax their efforts but for a single day. In more than one of the close boroughs which have always been reckoned on as returning Mem bers in the interest of the Government for the time being, and the seats for which have been usually filled by representatives forming part of that Government, the unhandsome example has heen followed which was set by Messre Retriesand Dawson with regard to Harwich, the old Subalterns and tools of the former Tory Ministry having stepped into their wasters' shoes, and pre vailed over the virtuous burgesses, for their own personal use and profit. W ere t hi s practice to be carried to any great extent, it is obvious that the good results of a substantial election by the people in more open places might be considerably neu tralized. Those commonly called the Government boroughs, sending to the House of Commons per haps twenty-four Members, from a constituency of eome two hundred individuals, bribed and trammelled by eugagernents to certain old Treasury sharks, would thus countervail the voice of Yorkshire, Lancashire, arid eight or ten other of the most important counties in Englaed ! while, in the very debate preceding the division which exposed this• frightful state of our Parliamentary system, the modest per-ens who ex hibited in themselves the most striking illustrations of its foulness, would exclaim against the lolly of seeking any Reform at all ; or, per-adventure, with Sir John Malcolm, adduced their oust return to the House of Commons as proof paramount that the representative Constitution admitted no amend ment. Since the above remarks were written, fresh triumphs in the cause of liberty have been announced Westmoreland, the enthralled, the all-but chartered vassal, the prisoner and victim of the Lowthers— Westmoreland, on whose head an eveelastieg night appeared to have closed in, is said to have caught one glimpse of the luminary which now shines blight e'er Great Britain. Two friends of Reform, we are told,'are likely to contest the representation with the Lonsdale dynas . y, and thus in part to redeem the disgrace entailed en that unfortunate county by her former rejection of the claims of Henry Brougham. So Lancashire and Yorkshire in the north, Worces tershire, Shropshire, and Hereford, in the west, Norwich in the cast, in the south of England, Kent, Devonshire, Dorset, and Su-sex, and Bedford among the inland counties, are about to vindicate the na tional spirit of independence, by returning honest advocates for Reform. Of Cambridge Univer sity we shall say little more, but that the mere suspicion of her wavering between two tried men like Lcril Palmerston and Mr. Cavendish, and two new pretenders like Messrs. Goulburn and Peel, is in itself a deplorable stain upon the reputa tion of our Alma Mater. The sympathy between the mother of learning and all that exists beyond her walls of whatever is most distinguished for knowledge, ability, and public virtue, throughout the King's dominions,—the sort of sympathy, we repeat, ‘'rhich must ba inferred from the mere notion that Cambridge would ever think of choosing a dull Tory in the person of Mr. Goulburn, anti a pure nonentity in that of Mr. Pe, I,—is, of course, highly flattering to the wisdom and integrity, to the con science and honour, of those who ought to be no less examples than instructors to the liberal youth of England! Faugh upon it ! We turn, if not to Ox ord University, to t h e county o f O x f or d , w i t h cheer ing and animating hopes. There Mr. Weyland,— a gentleman of high character—a strenuous reformer —has been called upon by the spirited gentry in all quarters, to rescue their county from disgrace, and endeavour to throw out that young gentleman who made himself the laughing-stock of half an hour in the House of Commons, by a namby-pamby farrago against the measure of Reform. If it be true that Lord Norreys sues to the holders of the bo rouglorionging stockpurse, and rests his hopes of becoming member fur Oxfordshire on their charity, it surely enhances the shame of suffering him to shoulder out Mr. Weyland or Mr. Harcourt. It at all events doubles the obligation upon the friends of the public cause to subscribe munificently for the support of the liberal candidate. We hope most heartily that Mr. Weyland will succeed. Read, people of England, the advertisement of Mr. Bankes, to Dorset,—of Bankes the old Tory,— Bankes the Reformer,—Bankes who would have had any person to tl.e bar of the House of Com mons for nicknaming him a reformer only twelve months ago ! The old fox declares himself a re former ! Look at his vote on the East Retford question. Look at it ; then tell us what his love of Reform ought to sell for. It will not fetch the re presentation of Dorsetshire, we reckon. .Old Bankes, the reformer ! " Hark, to Calcraft," the old fox breaks cover—Tally-ho ! A statement has appeared in.a Sunday Paper, and a similar one in a Morning Paper of Saturday, con taining a charge—so monstrous as to be almost incredible, and scarcely worth noticing—that on Wednesday night, when the illumination took place " riot and confusion were prepared and got up under the authority and regulation of the Secretary of State for the Home Department ;" that " under his sanction the streets of the metropolis were delivered up to the rabble ;" that " a desperate mob pro ceeded in a sort of military array through the streets, thronged with policemen directed not to interfere;" and that " the miscreants acted under the sufferance of Lord Melbourne." We need not waste a remark on so absurd an assertion as that of the Secretary of State ordering or sanctioning any excess which occurred on that oceas on. We have the authority of the Commissioners of Police to state that they received the fullest and earliest directions to make every arrangement, and take every precaution, for guarding and securing the public peace in Westmin ster, and preserving good order in the streets. They were directed expressly to guard all houses which were likely to be exposed or threatened if not illu minated, and the names of the owners were par ticularly mentioned. Among them were included the 'lames of those Noblemen and gentlemen whose houses are described in the Papers as having suffered. Upon these directions the Commissioners acted, and made the most effective arrangement in their power. The police force in Westmicister was ve,y conside rably increased, an d k ept on d uty the who l e of the evening, and through the night. A great [norther o f persons, nearly two hundred, were taken by the police from among th e crow d f or t h e o ff ence o f breaking windows, and secured; the greater part of these were afterwards handed over to the Ma gistrates of the several police-dices, who were di rected to attend, and be ready at their posts, in case any thing serious had occurred. The reports in the Papers referred to of the occurrences of Wednesday night have been gr oss l y exaggerate d. There was no military array in the streets —no desperate mob—with the exception of breaking windows, no violence was committed, and less excess occurred than has been usual on such occasions. In every part of Westminster the pot ce force was most active, and never did their duty better. We believe it never before happened, in the history of Illumine tioes, under the establishment of the old parochial watch, that there were not many broken heads, shops broken open, and pockets picked. We have riot beard of one such instance on Wednesday night : And from the best information we have been able to procure, we believe that nothing of the kind hap pened. As the Earl of Jersey's house is mentioned in the Paper alluded to as one that suffered, it is , atisfactoty to add, that the inspector of police re ceived from Lord Jersey's agent the sum of 51. for the policemen on duty before that nobleman's house iu Betkeley-squar e t and Lord Jersey, through his agent, informed the Commissioners that he was par ticularly satisfied with the conduct of the police. Letters expressing high approbation have been re ceived also from other quarters. The fact is, this affair of the il!trmiriaCon has been taken up for a mere political purpose, and to give vent to disap 'pointed political malice —Timcs. The cause of Reform Continues to thrive. The people everywhert-are alive to the great duties im posed WI them. Wherever the people have been ailowed a choice, they have triumphantly carried the Reform candidates. The account of the first Jay's poll for Exeter forms almost the only excep tion to the uniformity of success. The first day left lie Reform candidate, Mr. Divett, 37 behind Mr. Buck, who voted for General Gascoyne's motion, and who, of course, ought to be scouted by the Re formers. It is true Mr. Divett was late in the field, and only able to canvass the day before the election, which had been hurried on by the Chamber of the city. We trust, however, the people of Exeter will not allow themselves to be the only disgraced city in England. A t Norwich the polling continues, but there is no hope f)r the Anti-Reform candidates, though they choose to persist. The acceptance of the invitation of the freeholders of Northumberland by Lord 1-towick has caused great natisfac:ion in that spirited county. The attempt of the Duke of Northumberland to controul the free holders by means of his money-bags has greatly in censed them. We are assured on good authority, that Lord Ilowick's election is quite secure. The Newcastle Chronicle forcibly observes : " They (the freeholders) are anxious to pay this debt, and show that they are superior to all selfish interests or ' domineering influence ; and their most ardent desire is to return Lord Howick and Mr. Beaumont as their repre sentatives, being fully convinced that in them they will find most energetic and faithful supporters of the Reform Bill. We will not insult them by attempting to urge them to a strenuous support of Lord Howick. We know that, independent of bin own high merits, they regard him as the emblem of Reform, and feel, that, in support ing him, they are acquitting themselves in the judgment of their countrymen, and showing them that they duly appreciate the opportunity that is afforded them, that whilst other counties can only give verbal honour, they have it in their power to pay a substantial, unbought, and sinrere tribute of respect to Earl Grey and his colleagues by the return of Lord Howick. In vain with them, we are sure, will be all the threats of lordly dictation with which they have been assailed. They will laugh them to scorn, and teach their aristocratic superiors that the tenants of the present day are not to be coat ed and com manded as the feudal retainers of old ; and that though on ordinary occasions they may not he indisposed to promote the wishes and interests of those above them, yet when tie real struggle conies they know the respect due to themselves, and will not sacrifice the interests of them selves and their children at the bidding of even the highest and mightiest in the land." At the Westminster election yesterday Sir Francis Burdett, afttr alluding to the splendid conduct of the non-resident voters of ilythe, said he trusted that " Liverpool would not be the only place in the United Kingdom insensible to the disinterested spirit that was abroad. He sincerely hoped that Liverpool would endeavour to retrieve its charac ter. He hoped they would show that they were not the only electors in Lngland insensible of the duty they owed to their King and country." We can hardly believe, notwithstanding all we have heard of Liverpool, that, at a time like this, sordid consi derations will alone be listened to. so, no, Liver pool has been enough disgraced, in having had its name associated with the defeat of the Reform Bill. However, there are the best hopes for the county of Lancaster. The freeholders having been disap pointed in Lord John Russell, turned their eyes to Mr. Benjamin Heywood, banker, in Manchester. The Manchester Guardian of Saturday last gives the best as-urance of success. " Already," say that respectable Journal, " the freeholders in many populous and important districts have been can vassed, and have almost to a man pledged them selves to vote for a candidate who will thoroughly and efficiently support the Reform Bill." En Lan cashire, as well us Northumberland, Northa.mpton shire, and several other counties, the professional men vartake of the general spirit "it is hardly necessary to state," says the Manchedcr Guardian, " that all those services (canvassing., &c.), including those of a number of profes,ional gentlemen of the highest respectability, are perfectly gratuitous, it having been resolved to return Mr. Heywood entirely free of expellee to himself." Liberal subscriptions for the conveyance to the poll of the poorer free holders have been set on foot both at Liverpool and Manchester. " Amongst the sums (says the Guardian) which have been subscribed at Manchester, none have given us so much satisfaction as several which Lave been subscribed by bodies of work-people, to oppose Mr. Patten, and to support a staunch reformer. The example in this way was set by the hands of Messrs. Joseph Clarke and sons, who held a meeting in the mill yard, and agreed to sub scribe each one week's wages, amounting nearly to four hundred pounds, in support of the good cause; a dona tion was announced in a placard, hearing the significant title, The People versus the Borouglitnongers.' This example was followed by the workmen of Mr. J. C. Dyer, who subscribed IGO/. ; by those of Messrs. Ireland and Co., who gave 25/. 10s., and by those of several other establishments, who have contributed various smaller sums. We have nn doubt, indeed, that the example will be very generally followed. The labouring classes are fully aware that the interests of the whole community are involved in the momentous struggle which is going on ; and a portion of their well•got earnings will I e employed to counteract the effects of the lavish expenditure of the boroughmongers. These gratifying contributions, as they have been more honestly obtained, will be more righteously, and, we trust, more effectually expended, than that share of public plunder which some of the enemies of Reform are lavishing in an ineffectual attempt to prevent its ac complishment." These contributions, so honourable to the working classes, lead us to notice the exertions of a similar kind which have been made in London. No class in the metropolis has more distinguished itself in this way than the printers, who have felt themselves more particularly identified with the great instru ment through which the spirit of the people has been kept alive. If Sir It. Peel and the borough mongers were by any accident to find their way to power—succeed they certainly could not in resist ing the will of the nation—they would, no doubt, attempt to extinguish Journalism, and then to ex tinguish the Liberty of the Press. Of this the printers are aware, and they have been zealous con tributors to the Patriotic Fund. We confess we have been not a little surprised to learn that Mr. Spottiswoode, the King's Printer, has been playing the Duke of Northumberland in his way—that hear ing the men in his employ had subscribed to the Patriotic Fund, he called them before hitn, inquired who were the contributors, and at the end of the wt ek dismissed every man who had subscribed. This is certainly carrying the right of controul a great way. We are astonished, we confess, that any gentleman in the present day, and especially in a metropolis like this, where all eyes are upon him, should dare to act in this manner. If Mr. Spottiswoode chooses to punish workmen for daring to think differently , from himself, he cannot be astonished if public opinion should bear upon him some day in a way which may not he palatable. — However, enough of this for the present. A great deal has been said as to the manner in which the Anti-Reform candidates have been treated in one or two places. But what has been the conduct of he great boroughmongers during this crisis ? Look to Stii.mford. We could hardly have believed that any man would in the present day have dared to engage a band of ruffians in the metropolis to awe the elector.; and still less, that any Mayor, or other Magistrate, acting under a deep responsibility, wouLl ' have sanctioned such a gross outrage on all decency by swearing in these ruffians as special con-table•. Mr. Parkes, the spirited law adviser of Mr. Tenuy- •ou, told the Mayor that " the introduction of such scoundrels was infamous," and "he pledged his leputation to the legality of the people inflicting the summaty justice Englishmen were wont to deal out, if the bullies, so imported from the foulest lanes of the metropolis, offered any interference with, or in sult to, the inhabitants. He warned the Mayor, that, in swearing in such fellows, he, the Chief Officer, would be responsible; for that assuredly, in the temper of the inhabitants, the foreigners would he exterminated." Let not the people re lax in their endeavours. The boroughmongers must be beaten if the people continue true to themselves. Let us obtain a majority in the House of Commons and all must go well. Sir Francis Burdett yesterday alluded to a point which is a sore one with the boroughmongers, and which, indeed, they can never hear agitated with any patience. " They had not now (he said) one of those crazy owls upon the Throne who would sit still and witness the plunder ing of the people, but a King of that stamp, that if the so called representatives of the people had the hardihood to disregard their universal sentiment, he would, in calling the next Parliament, withhold the writs of those places which ought to be disfran chised.—(Cheers.) Fir a trifling expence the homughmongers would be defeated ; and he was confident the Bill would not only be carried, but carried triumphantly by the voice of the people. His Majesty had exercised one prerogative — he had another to exercise, should it be necessary—which was to dissolve Parliament again, and then refuse Iris writs to the rotten boroughs. (Loud cheers.") We should like to see those vingni•loquent men who talk of dying in their last ditch, arraying their con stituency against a patriot King and an united people. Sir George Rose, at the head of his ten Ci•ristchurch constituents; Mr. Bankes, of Corfe Castle, with his returning officer, the proprietors and constituency of Gat ton and Old Sarum, &c , advanes ing against the capital with their anti-Reform standards ! The very idea is ridiculous. The nation has declared itself too unequivocally to allow the base boroughmongers to stand between them and the Reform which is to save it from their clutches in all time to come.—Morning Chronicle. Are rejoice to Gnd that some of the nesvly elected Members of Parliament, who have obtained their return under the livour of revolutionary clamour, are not likely, after all, to prove such de termined Revolutioni,ts as their language before the infatuated electors had fixed them in their seats might have led us to apprehend. To mention a single instance. Mr. Mills, the new Member for Rochester, where clamour fur " the Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the combined with the threat of brutal violence and remorseless assassina tion, so openly proclaimed by the organs of Minis ters, had put down all opposition—this gentleman is no sooner elected than he informs those who have chosen him, that "whatever alterations Lord John Russell's Bill may undergo before being again brought forward, he will by no means endanger its passing; but that, nevertheless, if any real amend ments should be proposed in a Committee, he will certainly think it his duty to vote for thorn." This is certainly a very clever and ingenious mode of re ducing a pledge to nothing. We would by no means he understood to applaud fraud or tergiversation, but when men have once consented to place themsi.lves in a situation in which they must either dis appoint the wishes, the mis , aken and epheme ral wishes, perhaps, of their immediate consti tuents, or become parties to the ruin of their country, we can have no hesitation in saying, that the former alternative ought to be preferred. The gentleman whose language we have quoted seems in this respect to be entirely of our opinion, and so we have reason to believe are many others, who are taw content to be floated into Parliament by the tide of popular insanity. The new Member for Rochester has had the penetration to discover, and the frankness, somewhat prematurely perhaps, to disclose, that the candidates who now pledge them selves to vote for " The Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill," will never have the opportu nity to redeem their pledge. He very sagaciously supposes that a Bill, many of the provisions of which all men who have attentively considered it know to be morally and physically impracticable, will undergo very considerable alterations before it is again brought forward, and he foresees th,it the effect of this must be, to set fie all the Members who are pledged to support a thing never to be ()tiered to their acceptance, leaving them bound, as they would equally have been without any pledge whatever, by the ties merely of party or individual attachment. view of the whole subject. Minister s brin g for ward This opens to us a new and s omewhat startling a Bill admirably calculated to e ntrap the hasty i and inconsiderate feelings of the people , but n the same degree and for the same reasons altogether unfit to sustain a detailed and minute examination by any deliberative assembly. They then, without any immediate necessity, dissolve Parliament, before their measure arrives at the stage for close, accu rate, and severe scrutiny. They thus get all the benefit of the popular feeling, and avoid all the danger which a rigorous examination of their mea sure might and would have produced. Having by this ingenious contrivance succeeded as they think in securing the return to Parliament of many of their special Wends arid retainers, under the name of friends and partisans of " the Bill," it comes out all at once, by the indiscreet confession of one of the number, that " the Bill," in favour of which so many pledges have been extorted and given, is never to be again proposed at all, but that some other measure of Reform, with respect to which the country is left entirely in the dark, is to be proposed in lie u of it. • We shall be curious to see Lord John Russell's new (it will be his third) Bill of Reform, or as Mr. Mills ingeniously describes it, Lord John R ussell's Bill, " whatever alteration it may undergo before being again brought forward." The two former m easures offered to Parliament were manifestly framed with no other view than that of securing to the Whig party, for a century or two to come, a de cided preponderance in the House of Commons. As the friends of the Administration tell us daily that their strength will be greatly increased by the pre sent general election, arid as courage commo nl y grows with strength, it is not very improbable t hat the next Reform Bill of his Majesty's Ministers m a y expressly enact that Earl Grey and Lord Brougham shall now nominate th E e nglish, Irish, and Scotch families, the members of which shall for the next two hundred years compose the House of Commons, to the absolute exclusion of all others.—Morn. Post. The dilemma in which the leading enemies of Reform .are now involved cannot escape the com monest observation. A few months have scarce elapsed since they had it in their power to have satsfied the wishes and the expectuti.,ns of the country by such a moderate plan of Parliamentary Reform as the spirit of the age, as well as the almost unanimous feeling of the disinterested part of the community, called fur ; to lead to which, and to crown their efforts with success, they had on the throne a Monarch newly sewed, whose first ambi tion it seemed to be to outrun the reasora:ble de sires of his people, as it should have been theirs to meet him. But no ; insensible alike to reason and to justice, as well as to the march of events around them, they openly avowed them selves the enemies of an amendment in our Parliamentary system, unblushingly avowing its most notorious defects to be, in their eyes, a m ong its most striking beauties and advantages. Driven front the helm of affairs, fur this among other offences, they have been succeeded by men pledged to an opposite line of conduct, and, above all things. pledged to the one great measure of Parliamentary ; Reform. Thus ousted, they attempted at first to re ive their avowed antipathy to Reform in any shape; but no sooner do they find some Reform inevitable, than they hypocritically turn round, and talk of Re form as the very thing they have alway s wished and desired ; thus cloaking their hatred of the particular measure of Ministers under a pretended readiness and anxiety to produce in its stead one of their own. • To say nothing of the downright fal se h oo d of this, as opposed to all their previous conduct and as-; ertioes, let us ask why, if they professed to have a plan of their own, they do not produce it ? The country in general, whatever may be the case with Ministers, are not wedded to any minute de tails; hut, on the contrary, are open to, and ready to receive, any better plan than the one now before them, were any better presented to their adoption. Why is Sir Robert Peel—why is Sir Robert Inglis—why is Sir R. Vyvyan—.=o slow in produc ing his plan, but for this plain reason—that neither - of them has any, and that the very mention of their having any is only meant as a delusion, a throwing of dust in the eyes of the people, to draw off and divide their attention from the sound and practical plan which is before them ? The first object of the delusion, however, is fast fading away, arid is failing altogeth er . Th ey t h oug h t that, by professing themselves friendly to some Reform, they would deter the King from dissolving the Parliament; and, failing in this, they imagined it would ope rate in their favour at the new elections. Their machinations failed with the King, and they are failing everywhere with the people. His Majesty was too firm of purpose to be lulled or intimidated either by their threats, their promises, or their en-: treaties ; and the people, wherever they have a voice, are nobly responding to the patriotic views and consistency of the Sovereign, and are determined that he shall not appeal in vain to their honest and unbiassed judgment. Thus situated, and thus hu miliated, the boroughmongers have only to make a virtue of necessity. As to the ultimate result of the elections there can be now no question. The first city of the empire, in the person of the most estimable of all the Anti-Reform candidates, has proved incontestably what the boroughmongers have to hope where there is an open field and no favour. The Duke of Wellington, probably, will learn in a few days what chance his nominee in Hampshire has; and Sir Robert Peel may quietly ruminate, before the meeting of the new Parliament, whether he may not be able to find as ready a salvo, in his political conscience, for Reform, as he not long since found, after years of wan fare against it, for Catholic Emancipation. — Mornin g Herald. Dark hints have been thrown out by some of our contemporaries, for some days past, relative to the conduct of certain Judges, who ere said to have canvassed against the Reform Bill. One, in parti cular, who is said to have exercised his influence in this way at Cambridge, has been made the subject of unpleasant allusion. We do not pretend to know whether these charges ere true or not, but we do know that, if they are true, such conduct reflects no credit upon the Bench. The fountain of justice should not only be pule, but unsuspected of taint; but, if once the turbid stream of political contention flow into it, how can its waters flow in a clear and wholesome current throtioh their constitutional channel ? Far be it from us to deny to Judges the right to hold political opinions, or to fairly exercise political privileges. Indeed, such Judges as are Members of the House of Lords are, by the very nature of their situation, called upon to vote on po litical questions, and, if it be their duty to vote on them, it is their undoubted right to discuss them; but. this open, avowed, arid constitutional privi lege is a different thing altogether from the inde corous exercise of the influence of their high office in the heated partisanship of a contested election. If any Juqge, who is a Peer of Parlia ment, has endeavoured to influence en election, he has not only acted in a manner derogatory to the Welty of the Bench, but he has committed a gross violation of the privileges of the House of Com mons ; and has incurred for such infringement of the freedom of election a very unpleasant liability. There are several of our Judges w ho, not being Peers of Parliament, are themselves academic eke tors, as being members of the Senate of the Cam- bridge or Oxford University. They have a right to give their votes as their consciences direct ; but they have no right to canvass or attempt to influence the votes of others. To do so would betray a party ' spirit unbecoming their high station, and such as could not be expected to consist with the impartial administration of justice in any civil or criminal proceeding which they might subsequently have to try, arising out of such elections. An Evening Paper (the Courier) says—" The conduct of Lord Lyndhurst —a Judge restored to the Bench by an impartial Ministry, but who could not have expected that he would have availed him ,, elf of his indepen dence to oppose the King, when in the act of pro moting the happiness of his subjects —and the more recent display of political interference by a Judge at Cambridge —prove that even the best intentions may he frustrated,and almost make us wish thatJudgcs were dependent upon the Crown, in order that the Crown might have the power of punishing individuals who have, with so much im ropier v, attempt ed to thwart the wishes of the King, and ai , turb the tranquillity of the country." We cannot say that any act of political indecorum by a Judge would induce us for moment to entertain a wish hostile to the inde pendence of the Bench. Long and bitter experi ence in the history of this and othei' countries has shewn that Judges dependent on the Crown —or, in other words, on the Ministers of State for the time being —Are, in all contests between the Crown and the subject, the slaves of power and the oppressors or the people. As to Lord Lyndhurst, he was al ways a politician, and yet Ministers cave him the situation of Chief Bison, to which Baron Bayley, who never intermeddled in politics, had, from his s v u i( p le e d rio a r tt s e t t a n t i tl m in g to , i h li i s s legl j caa knowledge, duties, a Ir a I d t b u e tntdeir claim. Ministers must, therefore, thank themselves for whatever vexation he has caused them. There are still worthy men upon the Bench who will do nothing unhecoming their station. If there be any of another description, their best restraint will be found in public opinion.—Morning - Herald. The Westminster election took place yesterday, and it is almost unnecessary to say that it teimi nated in the return of the two former Members. The anti-reformers had even sense enough—and that is saying a great deal—not to venture on an opposition. H a d th e y done so, and we regret that they did not, the result would have been the same; but then, on the other hand, the cause of Reform might have gained by an opposition so utterly worthless as any which could have been set up against the representatives of Westminster. How ever, what the cause of Reform has lost by the absence of opposition in what we may now term, ;without any disrespect, the original and great (len of Reform, it will gain by what we may as justly style the frantic opposition set up at Nor wich against the late representatives, Messrs. Gurney and Grant! And who are the oppo nents ? Our readers, we bet a farthing to a mil lion, (if we could afford to lose the bet,) will not gue=s ! Well then, not to hold th em i n sus pense, we will state at once, that the opponents are the doughty champions, Sir Charles Wetherell, and the Duke of Newcastle's late sub for Newark, Mr. Sadler! !—Arcades antbo, assuredly in the opinions which they entertain, but how unlike in all other respects ! It is a characteristic, however, of extra ordinary times, as well as of extreme poverty, to make people acquainted with " strange bed fellows;" and so it would appear to be with the Duke's nominees; for who so unlike as the late laughter-moving Member for Boroughbridge, and the late solemnly pompous Member for Newark ? Nature herself rarely exhibits more decided con trasts; but, after all, if there had been a chance, as there is none, of their election, it was, perhaps, as well on the p.trt of the Duke to furnish the ro od people of Norwich with a specimen of th e vares in which he deals. If they did not like the .lotnus of the late House, their suffrages might have fallen on him who has anything, to judge from his manner, but veneration for the god. To be mote . erious, however, upon a very serious question, the Duke might have saved his money, and his nominees their journey. The expenditure of the former mil he found as useless as the trouble of the latter; for Messrs. Gurney and Grant are safely lodged in the respect and affections of the people ; and so utterly hopeless in every respect is the cause of the Duke of I Newcastle in all quarters , that it i s confidently asserted, his candidates will he thrown out at New ark,--his own close and favourite borough. So much for the Anti-Reformers.--]Horning Advertiser. Our call—our humble and small voice,—in favour of additional subscriptions, to aid the great cause of Reform, has not beer' in vain. The parish of Lam• belt meets this day, to redeem its character from the imputation which would have otherwise rested upon it, of being one of the last, if n o t th e l as t, i n the metropolis, to move in the cause of all Endand, and we have no doubt to do itself honour, by a hand some subscription in aid of the election expences of those who are in favour of the Bill, but have no , conveniently the means to pay these expellees. Such, at all events, ought to be the case. Our readers will also perceive, from our columns, that the sprit of contribution to the success of the great national measure spreads in all quarters, and finds its way even into the abodes of those to whom a farthing is slmetimes an object, but who have, nevertheless, generously deposited even that mite in the great Reform Fund ! Aye, no fewer than ten thousand one hundred and forty-one farthings were yesterday lodged in our office, and will be im mediately transmitted to the proper quarter, arid all collected in only two public-houses, in, we believe, a day's time ! Are not the people then, from the lowest to the highest, in favour of Reform ? Is it not time for the boroughmongers to quail, and give up all hopes of a successful contest with those who are determined to be victorious, and of whom a tithe, single-handed, would be more than a match for the whole crew ? Sir Francis Burdett, in his address to the electors of Westminster yesterday, observed that "it was not to be snp p,ed that the King had cut down the lazy o,vls that had perched upon the pinnacle of Fortune, that they would be allowed to beard the King and people. No ; the King would not finch ; and should the present dissolution prove inefficient, lie would, he Loped, dissolve the Parliament again, arid exercise the Royal prerogative, and refuse to i-sue writs to the rotten boroughs." But there will he no need for this ultinza ratio,—the people are doing the business for themselves ; and it is all but morally impossible, that their representatives, e.diere they have been freely chosen, should not complete it. The majority is, indeed, already won, in the Lower House; but we must have a large majority, in order that those who style themselves the Upper House, may be persuaded to make a majority also. —Morning Advertiser.

The:e elections, at present, wear a roost curious aspect. Sir John Lowther (much to the satisfaction of every honest man in the county) has resigned. For thirty-five years he has hell a ssat for this county, and upon every occasion has been found in the rank: of the enemies of the people. It was lisfitting that such a career should close with a vote, to keep the hands of the boroughmongers in the pockets of the people, and throw the peace of the " country into the most imminent jeopardy. Sir Junes Graham is the only candidate who h is yet offered himself: We believe it was fully intended by the Lonsd de family, that on the retirement of Sir John Lowtlier from Cumber land, Lord Lowther should offer himself as his successor. But recent events appear to have paralyzed the energies of that family, and instead of exhibiting that daring reckless ness of public opinion which has so long characterised their conduct, they seem now to quail under it. Imme diately after the dissolution of Parlianont, Lord Lowther posted to the North, fully intent, it is believed, on offering himself for this county. But here he was met by the news of the determination of the yeomanry to oppose him, and to put in a man of th•ir own choice. This intelligence appears to have wadi him waver in hla course. There were rumours abroad of opposition in Westmoreland, a contest bad unexpectedly sprung up in Carlisle, and the poor bewildered Lord in vain sought comfort from his agents. Sycophants us they are, they could not shut their eyes to the facts around them—they could not but s,c that the freeholders by hundreds were signing their names to return two Reformers free of expense. All was die may in the camp. The " Prince of Dectioneerers," be came dreadfully alarmed for his power ; and set off hastily for Dallam Tower to offer a seat fir Westmoreland to Mr. ' Wilson. But Mr. Wilson was deaf to the voice of the charmer, though he was offered to lie allowed to vote as he pleased. His Lordship returned to Lowther Castle, and on Wednesday morning, the 27th, there was issued an icidresi s;gned "John Lowther," and dated " Lendon, 4ril 21." It was then fully expected that his Lordship would offer for this county, but alas ! the glory is de parted from the House of Lowther. On Thursday morn ing his Lordship addressed the freeholders of West moreland, offering them a renewal of his valuable ser vices ! So that if this offer be made in sincerity, a new man must be sought, if they wish to try for a seat in Cum- Thus far as to the appearances on the side of the enemy. In another column we give the copy of a decla ration which has been most numerously signed by the freeholders, pledging themselves to support Sir James Graham and William Illamire, Esq. of Thackwood Nook, free of expense. The declaration, we are informed from competent authority, has received the signatures of six thousand freeholders. This is a decided majority of the whole number of votes, so that we may fairly say that Cumberland is safe. l2ut the freeholders must not, there fore relax in their rifirts. They have a powerful and de ceitful enemy to deal with, who must be met by energy and decision, or he will find measures to defeat them. Although there is no opponent declared, let the free holders act as if there was one in the field, and not imagine that the necessity of exertion has ceased until the return has-been signed by the Sheriff. We are not enabled to state precisely what line of op ra•ions will be adopted in Westmoreland by the indepen dent party. A requisition to William Crackanthorpe, E. q . was presented by a numb,-r of freeholders, calling on him to come forward ; but he declined the invitation. We have reason to believe, however, that a Reform can didati, will he proposed, and if our information be cor rect, one of the right scot, too : but we are not yet at liberty to disclose names. The election takes place on the I I th May. LONDON MARKETS. PRICE OF BREAD. The highest price of Bread in the Metropolis is 10hid. fot the lib. Loaf.
