SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. News of a decisive battle between the Polish army and Paskewitsch will probably artive before our next publication. If the brave Poles should prove victorious, as we trust in Heaven they may, their. deliverance will have been their own glorious and unaided work : if otherwise, it is lamentable to think how small seems their chance of effectual sue. cour from any part of E uro p e . We say this with a full recollection of every thing that has been pro mised or threatened by those who call themselve the Liberal French party, as to what they would do themselyeS. and force the Government of Louis Philippe to perform for the cause of Polish liberty. We utter this prognostic with the report before us of the debate wherein so much fuis was made about the extent to which the Chamber should pledge itself and the executive government on behalf of Poland. It may appear uriCharittible to . accuse the dominant French party—that is, the movement party—of indifference, and therefor e of gross dis honesty, to,vards the patriotic Poles. Yet what has been the conduct of that party, and of the Cabinet of Casimir Peder, which has becom e the servile great ire of the " movement ?" They have talked, it is true, of Poland; but what have they .done? Under colour of grievances which, for argument sake, we admitted to be real, but which we have the 'authority of the King o f France himself for asserting to'have been satisfacto rily redressed, 'a Frerch*et sailed, not to the 831- tic in aid ' , 61 Poland, but to t : isbim, where it still remains, having eized all the rnen,of,war in the ser vice of Portugal, and made prize of them, after full' satisfaction had been granted for whatever ii juries the Government of France complaivel of: Se l ong as the people of England saw that the French Ca binet had done no more than enforce by arms its fruitless demards rf itielings of this euuntrywereMdhg . with these of France. It is so, we apprehend, no longer : . the cloven foot of rapacity and aggrandizement has shewn itself under the robe of offended hone,er, and the origi nally lawful enterprise of the 'French Government has . sunk into an alarming aggression.

Again, a French army marched— to the Vistula ? No, but towards the Scheldt • it was not called for by the Prince for whose al legel support it was put in motion, yet it marched —under the strongest assurances that on the le reat of the Dutch troops from Belgium, the French troops would retrograde into France. Lou) Grey, the British Minister, declared emphatically, that England had a " right to expect" the departure of Marshal Gerard's force, so soon as it should have fulfilled the acknowledged purpose of its mission-- that is, so soon as it should have compelled the Dutch to no urn to Ilolla id. If, therefore, such an expectation has not yet been sath.fied, it follows that England has been ilkreated by Louis Philippe. Bat have the French retired ?—No Marshal Soult fist declined in the Chamber, that they would not, until it become certain that the Dutch would not renew their invasion, and the King of France himself has since announced that snis troops would remain until he and " his allies" should discover that there existed no further necessity for their stay in Belgium. But the " have for some days past accomplished that discovery. How if the King of France should alone continue blind ? The troops, we suppose, will wait until his eyes are opened— that is, until he shall choose to agree with his Allies in opinion In such a case, we ask again, what will be the duty of England, not merely as relates to Belgium, but as becomes her own place in Europe ? If France be inclined to play fast and loose with Great Britain, and instead of forming an honourable and enlightened league be tween two nations which hold the fine of the world between them,—a league on behalf of justice and fraetiorn every where; if she pursues a sordid, selfish, and grasping policy, fur her own exclusive ends, she exhibits herself before all mankind as at once the meanest and most atrocious of criminals. England, from motives of pure self-defence and of absolute necessity, is driven into an alliance with those Continental Powers which have every interest in common with her but that of a common liberty. She is compelled by France to be indirectly an enemy to Belgic, to Italian, to Spanish, Portuguese, and Polish freedom. The evil i s not of her creation, or of her choice. It is imposelde to endure another outbreak of French insolence, avidity, and usurpa too. France by gross outrages will have coerced us into a policy which we deprecate, and the author of such a sin against human hope and happiness is a monster that merits the execration, as she will as suredly meet the unpitying vengeance, of Europe, long familiar with her tyranny. If we asked why it is that France, or arty foreign Power, dares to make light of obligations solemnly contracted to wards Great Britain, the answer must he—and it grieves us to confess it—that the apparent weak ness of our Government at home, encourages fo reigners to beard us, as they imagine, with im punity. The languor or incompetence of some of our men in office, which has shown itself so conspicuously in the management of a great domestic question, upon which they were feebly opposed within doors and strenuously and unanimously supported without, must have impressed all strangers with a notion that the existing Cabinet is one not very bold or very skilful in any branch of public warfare. We do not approve much of sonic at least of the views of foreign policy ascribed to the Duke of Wellington ; b u t we really doubt whether in relation to Portugal, or Belgium, or even to Greece or Algiers, Great Bt itrun and France would, under his guidance, have stood at tit's moment in a position comparatively disre putable for the former Power. The first moral which we would draw front such considerations is, that for the sake of avoiding the necessity of a war at the moment when it may be least convenient to us, the King's Government should now at this moment prove, by a firm and peremptory language to certain Powers, that they know how to appreciate, but that they do not exaggerate to themselves, the evils of which war might be productive. The next inference to be drawn for Ministers is, that they should so expedite and complete the high do mestic task which they have undertaken, as to rid themselves front all embarrassment not naturally belonging to the position of our foreign affairs, and make the neighbouring Powers feel that the decks of the British man-of-war are all cleared fur action. Tameness and subserviency will never buy p eace : they serve but to render it at once dielionomabie and shortlived.—Timei, Lord \Vynford's Fraudulent Debtors' Bill met the fate we anticipated for it. The Aristocracy of England have always stoutly opposed all mea , nre3 for compelling them to pay their debts. We re member well, that when Sir Samuel Romii:y en deavou;ed to make heirs liable to pay the simple contract debts of those from whom they derived their estates, he was plumply told that it was es sential to an Aristocracy that they should not be compelled to be just like the people. V 4 very c l ass in society is naturally indulgent to the failings to which it is mole particularly addicted. Swindling is an aristocratic accomplishment, and Lords natu rally sympathise ‘vit% fraudulent debtors.—Morn ing Chronicle. It would appear that the House of :Commons gladly lay hold of any subject, no matter what, to avoid proceeding with the unfortunate Reform Bill. Not content with the proceedings which have al ready taken place regarding the Dublin election, the House were last night oecopied with the most un profirable discussions respecting the bribery and abuse of influence which were proved to have taken place. We can understand very well why a Parlia ment of Anti-Reformers should be anxious to punish such bribery. as was practised in Dublin. It is their interest that bribery shOuld be practised with more skill. It is . with them as with the Lacedemonians, the guilty thief is he ho is detected. 'fle ertna : nency of the corrupt systq.rn is threatened by the scandal caused by the open exhibition of bribery. We can understand, we say, why Anti-Reformers should be anxious to punish such exhibitions as those of Dublin. But why the anxiety'of Re formers ? Parliamentary Reformers assume it as' a matter of course, that briber . ) , will alWays take place where if is ili!d that the only way to guard against corruption, is to diffus e the fran chise so extensively as to identify the interest of the electets v ith the interest of the na tion. If it had been possible to r., , rentit igibery under the old !Fateirapi,iiist3, the nation would not have unieiiti in demanding Refoem. The Re form Bill is grounded oir the principle that the suf frages of the small number of voters, who return a Parliamentary majority, are c.grehaged, in Order to have the power to pillage the whole nation. Now, what is the of of punishment ? Not certainly the suffering of the indiVidUals subjected to it, but their reformation, and the se , .;t::::q; ociety in future against a repetition cf 14, came. But the lif , forrn Bill will free society from the necessity of relying for security on the punishment of detected bribery, consistent Eriorrmr, and therefore the punishment is useless in the 'way of example. He, therefore, who seeks to, Artist' bribery, under present c:rc,e,tr i stensriannut be a reet notion s of the ob j ect of penal laws. The use . arualstill less can he have cor which ought to be made of the corrurtio;:, bought i tO light i n Dublin. and'elsoyLere to provide in the t eroCm Lin egainat . the occurrence of similar abuses in 'future. M r. S tanley observed, that the system of • creating fictitious freehold s i s as comolon an d mis chievous i n England ase ; sewhere ; and h e a ll u d e d very happily to the ai•count given by a French gentlemat:O now a member of the Chamber of . Deputies t of the .xamination of a sham freeholder at the Westmorlary dection. Mr. Strickland very sensibly cbserved that at this time above all others it was the les. s tn r i y e ' op r t he ri o r ceed nightly to such consideration vas measure, e t ,t e h: tffect of which would he to prevent the recuirencr of such an event in future." Mr. Alderman Waith. nan, too, " objected to such proceedings, on tin *round that such transactions prevailed general! ) hroogbout the country." Of course, the Anti- Reformers were all eagerness to make the most of e windfall like this. All those who swallow bribery in the gross, but have qualms of conscience when • rifling instances are under consideration—the Messrs. Ciras. Wvnns, Wm. Bankes, &c.—surpassed them selves on this occasion. The great object with these people is to perpetuate bribery and corruption of al sorts; and they affect a mighty zeal against On Dublin offenders, in order that time may be con sumed, and the chances thereby be multiplied of the Bill being lost. Mr. John Wood with mired spiri , , unmasked these persons, and demonstrated the mischief which such discussions were calculated to do. After alluding to his having counted the House when tire Liverpool question was under discussion, he observed, " if any defence for such a course was necessary, it might be found in what had taken place that evening.—(Hear, hear)—for since the be. ginning of the Session it had been the object of a certain party to occasion delay, cost what it would. —(Cheers, mixed with loud cries of " No, no I") * * • It was a miserable waste of time to in quire into petty paltry cases, while Peers and Com moners received thousands of pounds for seats in that House. It was right that the people should know in what manner their representatives were oc cupied—with quibbles, with paltry prosecutions of individuals for receiving a few pounds, while Lords and Commoners dealt in seats for thousands of pounds. It was a mere pretext for delay. He could not congratulate his Honourable Friend, the Member for C.icklade, on the new alliance he had formed with the Ant`.-Refurmers—(Hear. hear)—nor en the mischief he had done to Re form. His Hon. Friend, he was sure, did not mean it; but the Anti-Reformers had found no more useful ally, nor the cause of Reform a more mischievous friend.—(Hear, hear.) He spoke sincerely what h e meant, though he hoped his Hon. Friend would take no offence." The truth is, that a number of those who pledged themselves to Reform, are sham Reformers —are inimical to Reform in their hearts, rind gladly lay hold of any pretext for throwing dif tieultii sin its way. In this consists the peculiar difficulty with which the Ministry have to struggle —they have to accomplish an end by the instrumen tality of men generally hostile to that end. Mr. Benett, of Wiltshire, for instance, cannot be a sin cere Ii former, w hen he declared that his motion re specting the Liverpool business " must be brought in at tic proper time, though it should slop the Reform Bill." The grief of such men for the loss of the Reform Bill would be very easily sup ported, The question of bribery having been dis posed of, then followed the question regarding the influence used by the Irish Government. Mr. Stanley contended that the Dublin Election Com mittee was not justified in entering at all into the question of influence, because, though the allegation of undue interference upon the plrt of the Govern ment had been made in the petition, the words of the Grenville Act expressly declared the Committee were only to consider such matters as affected the election, and as undue influence on the part of Go vernment did not affect the election, it should not have been considered. We have not space at present to go into this singular di.cussion. The motion was lost by a majority of 207 to 66, or 141. Lord Althorp declared, that were Elie motion to be car ried, the consequence would be the recall of all per sons in office in Ireland. Thus a whole night has been pased Ivitho.t entering at all on the Reform We wonder whether any progress will be made in it to-night. Where there is a will there is a way.

With these returns in their hands, Ministers might have said, " We do not dispute that tome of the boroughs which, by the census of 1821, had a population between 2,000, have, by the census of 1831, risen above that number, and that ohers, which had a population below 4,000 at the 'erntr•r date, have, in like manner, extended beyond that limit at the latter; but, admitting this fact, we :ti!l adhere to our original arrangement, because the tdoption of the census of 1821 (placed beyond our rontroul) frees us from any charge of influence or partiality in making up the lists; and because we have adopted the numbers of 2,000 and 4,000 for the measure of our total or partial disfranchisement, —not from a regard to mathematical exactness, but As a palpable and reasonable limit within which the proposed abolition or curtailment of repiesentatiiit privilege ought to take place. With this explanation I we mean to take the vote on the whole of the two schedules, and to admit no dispute about the present e t d h the ochmirtrigeebs precious fecipoauts populaelon of each particula r. borough."

In the former predicament would have appeared Wareham, which has, by the census of 1831, 2,325; Great Bedwin, which has 2,191 ; Eye, 2,313; Brackley, 2,107; .I\ewton, 2,137; Andover,2,ooB; and Milborne Port, 2,072. ► In the latter we should find Sudbury, which has now a population of 4,677; Cockermouth, 4,536; Bridport, 4,242; St. Ives, 4,776; and Ashburton, 4,165. So far from thinking that any substantial injustice was done to these boroughs by the 4dor. ,ion of the census of IS2I, on which they .re cau demned, instead of that of 1831, by which they would have been saved, wo should have seen no ob jection to include in the condemned schedules the 16 boroughs next above them in population, only three of which contain 5,000 inhabitanto 4 and one of which (Mahon) only escapes schedules 13 by five •1 souls.—Times, A striking change has come over the specula, tiona of the ultra-11. iyalists and friends of the Bour bons in France. They have become more violently hostile to England, —to the Vanglish people, and the English Govecnrneat, than the Jacobins and Buona partists WZAn after the battle of Waterloo, the' overthrow of Napoleon, and the restoration of legi timacy in Europe. The Gazette de Fiance and the Quotidienne take the lead in this warfare, acid con tain daily articles written in the most bitter spirit of hostility to langlish interests or English i n fl uence; and, as these papers are written to be read, they must calculate upon the approbation of the party whose cause they have ekpaused, and on whose pa tronage they depend. It is easy to discern their motives for contrasting the conduct of the English Government with that of their own, in order to show how much England has rained, and how much France has lost, in recent tranaatations. By this means they expect to cave; with odium a Ministry and a dynasty which they detest. It is as easy to see why they should abuse the present Cabinet of Eng. hold, whose principles they conceive idetatiiied with those of their existing rulers, and adeetee to those of the exiled family. Nor is it difficult to understand why the English people, wh o are b ent upon RJorna, ,hould b e disliked.by the enemies of the great body of the French people, who have accomplished a nece , sary revolution. But the puzzling character of their hostility is its gerterality,-,at he strange perver sion of the facts which they adduce to justify their antipathy,—aritl the plans winch they propose to gratify their ruling pas.don. In their bill of indict anent against us they include the histaay of the last seventeen years, during which the Bourbons were twice restored by our troops and our subsidies, and during which our successive Ministries were as much opposed to fteform as theirs were to revolution. 'The sattlement of Europe at Paris and Vienna, it would appear by them, was oar work, and effected solely for our interests, If so, it is rather odd that their frietads, the Bourbons, should have profited ao much, and we the people of Eng l.:wad so little, by the arrange -relents which we then effected. It is stiil more unaccount able how, with all the experienc e of fifteen years, we Englishmen ahould be unable to discover r single advantage, which we then secured to na.leelees at the. expeese of our neighbours, for all the sacrifices which we had incurred, and with all the military glory which we lead acquired. A nation of shop keepers and inanufseturcrs (as we have been called) might have been supposed to throw it; political ser vices and military renown ireta the scale of iti trade, and to have bought z:ommereial treaties with its brilliant yieaoa;es. Did an instance of thin accur estoring the 11Jurbons did we insist. on restoring Mr. Pitt's commercial arrangeetent of 1786 with France ? In seeed:a home the emigrant dynasty, and .he emigrant nobility, did we stipulate to the introduction of our cottons or our hardware into France? They took the betkef).'., of our steel, did we insist upon them b4ing our iron ? No; the continental sle- 4 4era of Napoleon was continteed anifeat as, so far as France was comet:teed ;--and from an absurd jealousy, the two eac..at powerful and most commercial nations ;: the world—placed in tiie immediate --i•-*-I:ty arid almost in sight of eae4 other---have less trading i ntercourse t h an either has With the empire of Brazil, its 4nother he rmisphere. At th e en d c k f, tiae war we found our selves in posseasicei of Cs-e a r:Da, to which we had pro . mised iidepyodenee, and from which we might have obtained airy exclusive advantage as the price cA citified protection. In giving it up to the little ab. solute King of Sardinia—the fri.ead of the Bourbons and of the legitimate oiteti in France—did we bar-, gain for a sin le. advantage ? Tine necessity ys ie motisL:at:ng soon afterwards against treatmetit which was harsher to England than to other nations, stilE ciently answers that euestlon. Our intercourstawith, Holland and the iietriarlands was, indeed, renewed after tika Peace; but the sacrifice a which w e had in curred to establish the 4iagdpm of the Netbelkords (lid not pot us a single immunity la a Belgie or Dt!tei: port, which a subject ef the Bourbons dial :AM )tnjoy upon the same ~ ,a- a ers:lsitions. The rc.,:toation of Ferdinand, for whom we 104(1 speee so much blood an d reeeaure, ruined our teed:, with Spain, and in the course of a few y ea,r; gave France the little advantage which could Le derived, in , a earfl - wend point of view, from a domineering political influence over an impoverished land. We might show in every other instance the absurdity of supposing that the settle oleo: of I:' 4 iirope was guided by any reference to the /i 2 ntetests of English commerce, and therefore establish , he falsehood of the calumnious charge, that we eii r manor make political arrangements from the selfish mo eyes of commercial advantage or monopoliz•ng gains. Nay, we will go farther, and say, that as Eeglishince, we desire no over-reaching, though it were pessible —no shopkeeping preference —no commercial fa souritism—no assistance from the lenity of custom house officers or portsmasters. All that we desire, is equality and freedom : the capital of our mer- Aunts, the ingenuity of our manufacturers, and the nterprise of our sailors and ship-owners will do the ,est. Nor did we, at that splendid era of our fame mil power, consult the interests of our ambition, secwitv, or ascendancy, more than those of our trade. We race up to Holland her East India poaecasiona in a highly improve:l condition ; and of all the con. Guests which we might have disposed of iii Europp, w e only accepted the expensive Protectorate of the lonian Islands, at the solicitatiort of a Greek . - Nlinster of Russia, who bad the modes.y to suppose that England would govern the eeptinsular republic better than a Russian Governor or a Turkish Paella. in the Tuileries, and at the Courts of the different Sovereigns restored by our arms, our bill:tepee soma ceased. Congress after congress was held, in which our voice was either not heard or disregardel The armies of the Holy Alliance Sovereigns overran Italy and Spain—overturning constitutional free- Jam, and restoring absolute power, from Syra cuse to C tdiz—without our cosicurrence, and in spite of our remonstrances. In - fact, we had left the continent to itself, and were only anxious 'o enjoy peace ourselves, anti to secure its blessings to others. " this in England seem ambition ?" And yet these Bourbon journals accuse us of eternally endeavouring to embroil the nations of the continent from motives of ambition In the course of the last eventful year, during which we are charged, in the most absurd manner, with pursuing a illachiavelian policy, and advancing oer ambitious views at the expense of our neighheurai what have we gained, or what have we even pro posed to gain ? Literally nothing. Did we huckster with the Government of France about the price or conditions of recognizing the new dynasty of the barricades ? No, w e were the first to hail the ac cession of Louis Philip without reserve or stipula tion, and that, too, under the administration of an illustrious warrior who is known to be no friend to popular revolutions. Did we intrigue to prevent his recognition by continental states ? No; our in fluence was exerted to obtain their - consent to the straightforward policy which we ourselves had }sw elled. Did we, repenting of our original frankness and sincerity, afterwards endeavour to foment dis turbances in France, and rejoice at the display of mob or legislative 4 iolence—at the excesses of street riots, or the violence of political factions `.;'' Every word that has escaped from the lips of our Ministers —every expression of opinion in Parliament—and utmost the uniform language of the liberal Press of England, attest the contrary. We arc desirous oC seeing France as great, prosperous, and free as the gonius of her people and the ltdvantages of her posi tion can make her, without attacking the interests or disturbing the tranquillity of her neighbours. But it is said " You have caused a pensioner of Eiiglend to be elected King of Belgium; anti is not thet an evidenee of your intriguing and selfish ambition ?" When will the time conic that, in uddressiog the multitude, our lively neighbours of either faction ►n ill pay the least regal ti to truth or cornrow, sense ? The Belgians know—the French Government know 3— ztll the world may know, that King Leopold is now on the throne of Belaium, not because the English Government urged his election (which would have been a reason for his failure)—not because he was an English Prince, and is connected with the Roval Family of England —but because, in the unfortu nate position of the Belgic Congress and people, no Prince so unexceptionable presented himself to their notice. We think him a very fit ruler for the new state, not because he is English, but in spite of his being Eugli,h ; and we should have preferred any other Sovereign equally fitted for his station, against whom no such ridiculous suspicion could have existed that he would favour Eagiish interests at the expen.e of his own people. If that country is not united to France, or by the extraction of its Sovereign directly subject to French dictation, it matter, no more to us who is King of Belgium than who is Emperor of Japan. We desire no favour at his hands—we have no objects to gain at the ex pense of his subjects —we only look for justice, im partial dealing, and equal rights of intercourse; and these, thank God, the might and majesty of Eng land can always command. 13; cause the conferences have taken place in Downing -street, and because for the, last nine months the English Government has laboured assiduously to bring about u satisfactory Belgic arrangement, let not French Jacobins, of the white or red kind, endeavour to fasten upon us any participation in their own dishonest or perfidious schemes. We have not, like them, intrigued to ob i train an extension of territory or of influence by secret societies or priestly interference. We have only endeavoured to preserve the peace of Europe for the general benefit of Europe, and we expect no °thee reward for our labours—no other fruit of our diplomatic conquests, than the cheap honour of an olive branch !—Tiince. • A Morning Contemporary, which, if it do not blow hot and cold in the same breath, can write for and against in the same Paper, thinks proper to pro nounce a lofty eulogium on the conduct of English policy for seventeen years past while directed by Tories, and yet asserts that the same Tories have fee half a century been the ruin of the country, and are so wicked and so imbecile that their return to power is wholly out of the question. 'We do net wonder that in the present state of affairs the advo cates of the Ministry should be so driven to their wit's end that they fall into these gross inconsisten cies. But all this desperate raving and impotent ' effort to sneer down the men of business of the Tory party is too late to serve its intended purpose, the country sees plainly that the Members of the present Government are not men of business; they are not capable of managing concerns which involva intricacy of details, and which require prac tieal knowledge, as well as acuteness and activity they huh* their iwrgination in schemes for party aggrandisement, instead of informing their judgment an euliiecis which affect the substantial concerns of tha people, and therefore the people are di .app and want more expe - denced and able men to manage their affairs. The frantic scheme of Reform, whit : A was at first looked at only with reference to its ge nerel object, is now d . scovered to be an impracti cable mass of anomalous and contradictory arrange ments, which oo man acquainted with practical affairs would have thought of putting together; but as people tire of this, and they are now • beiettily tired of it, they bethink them of the affairs of trade, which, under the present Ministry, have never been meddled with except to be put into confusion., We can tell our contemporary, who effects to suppose that the country will ~I.l,t,ier recur to the assistance of those with whose experience and diligent management it is acquainted, that throe hour the courrsry their return is looked for with in:ipatieece by those whose daily business is put in jeoperj,y by the ignorance and misma nagement el the present enlightened directors of our fieivoreial and trading pelcy.
