We long ago recommended that such mischievous Milscreants as FRANcts and OXFORD, instead of being exalted and ennobled with the dignity of traitors, should be whipped as petty thieves ; and we are in clined to believe that had our suggestion been fol lowed, and they and their crime degraded in public estiniation, we should not have had a re petition of their offence committed by the wretch JOHN BEAN. Other people, we are aware, think very differently ; and/. a Correspondent, with the s , gnature of " Justice, and Justice Only," as serts,. that if OXFORD had been executed we should never have heard of FRANCIS and BEAN. In both cases the public are aware of what has happened, and what has not been done ; but a little reflection may, perhaps, inspire some doubts whether that which was only recommended might not have disadvantages of its own. We have seen enough of flogging to know that, as an example, it sometimes fails ; but we are clearly of opinion that a degrading punishment, which would make the whole affair contemptible, is the safest way of restraining this mania for culpable notoriety. We are satisfied, from the experience of France, that shedding the blood of such would-be as• sassins will not add to her MAJESTY S security. Everything which' the law can do in the way o f terror is employed to throw a shield over her MAJEst Y and though the leniency shown to OXFORD may ac • count for a FRANCIS, how can it explain the crime Or OXFORD himself ? We are not sure that putting him to death would not have armed a ranch bolder hand than that of F R ANCIS to repeat his offence. It might have kindled something like Savage enthusiasm, and exposed her MAJESTY'S life to be assailed by much sterner passions, and a steadier aim. Tillage who say that there are not many doubts difficulties attending every course, have not .If3ought of the many perplexing considerations in volved in the matter. Enough has, however, reely occurred to show that the theory of crime, and of ftf means of repressing crime, are not well under stood. Our law-makers, instead of folding their hands with astonishMent at these unexpected and most afflicting attempts on the life of one who corn binea in herself all the qualities which usually excite the utmost res pect and, even rever ence , s h ou ld, if possible, trace out the causes of the terrible perversion, and apply a remedy. The gallows has been tried for ages, and has not cured the disease. The Anti-Corn-law Conference meet to-day, an d they have a noble work to perform. Sir R. PEEL and the Tories have refused to serve and save the • 44,.. `QC ar,'lQ ._ 41 ,t„,_ A, -64.0,.... 7 7 . ,1 6UI )4 — 4 . {, a. • * 4,77.,,1ft- t , .. , - eo,, ..t ~ 0 1 ' . 3R6 . ' . -. 7 . 3 5 \ '... 1 ?4 0 , "WHO 1- '. 7 i., o S DISO, ' ' 6 lj country, and if the Conference cannot overrule the Premier and his friends we shall begin to despair of England. Upwards of ten months has Sir R. Plum been in office, having assumed it under the loftiest pretensions and most excited hopes. Every day since trade has been growing worse and worse ; poverty and pauperism have increased ; so that his admi nistration, which began so proudly, seems likely to be called the Disastrous Administration. In Parliament he has been uniformly triumphant, and every measure on which he could boast of success seems to have cheated the hopes, or added to the dis tress of the people. Not only has distress continually increased, discontent that was lulled by hope is again gathering in black and stormy masses, roused up by disappointment. Our accounts from the manufactur ing districts are of the most gloomy description. One class after another is sinking into pauperism, and Sir It. PEEL, it is said, must apply his Income-tax to re lieve the paupers. Under these painful and trying circumstances the Anti-Corn-law League again assembles in conference. We look on the proceedings as of serious and solemn import. We earnestly pray that they may be equal to the crisis which brings them together. Half measures will no longer do. Flattery and false language can deceive none but themselves. If, while they denounce the Corn-law as unrighteous and iniquitous, they preach obedience to such a law, they will need no enemy to overcome them. If, while they meet in an extraordi nary convention, to set aside, as they hope, the deliberate decision of the Parliament, they shall profeSs a love and reverence for the bbdy whose decrees they deride and properly wish to upset, they will betray themselves. They come to Lon don to impugn the wisdom of Parliament, they meet to show that it has done, and is doing, a grievous wrong to the people, and unless they express that fearlessly and honestly, they will do nothing. What resolutions they may adopt is not for us to suggest ; but if they are not now prepared to set the unrighteous bread-taxers at defiance, to stand firmly and exclu sively upon the justice of their cause, they will not be equal to the occasion. As there are now great complaints about the in crease of the linen duties in France and the expected woollen duties in Germany, it seems appropriate to re mind the public that an individual trader and a nation are not enriched by what they send away, but by what they receive. If the French will give us their wine without taking anything in exchange for it, so much the better. If our linen-yarn spinners and woollen-cloth weavers were to send abroad ten times as much as at present, and were not to bring back an equal quantity of goods, they would be losers by the increase of trade. They would la bour more and get less. We venture on this ground to throw out a doubt whether the increase of import duties in other countries, about which there is a disposition to make such an outcry, be of any mate rial injury either to individual manufacturers or to the nation. We would venture even to suggest that export duties, such as our duty on coals, which pre vents other nations obtaining them, are much more injurious to foreign nations than any import duties levied on foreign commodities. Too much importance is attached, we think, to the import duties levied in other countries. We know it is expected that the French linen yarn manufacturer, paying no such duty, will sell his yarn at a lower price than the yarn imported, which will thus be banished from the French market. Does experience justify that view ? Did our heavy, our prohibitory duties, keep out French silks and gloves ? Did the enormous duties in France keep out thread for lace ? We affirm that they did not ; the smuggler was too much for the Custom-house officer, and the result of the duty was only to raise the price of the article to the consumer. Experience, more over, informs us that the sure effect of high protecting duties, is to make those in whose favour they are enacted negligent, indolent, and unenterprising, while they stimulate those whose production they are in tended to check to renewed exertions. Against these two opposite motives duties to any extent are almost unavailing, and therefore we beg leave to doubt whe ther, in a very short time, the effect would not be that English linen yarn would be sold in France, in spite of the duty, cheaper than French linen yarn. On this view we are very much inclined to con clude that heavy import duties on foreign commodities, whatever may be the intention of levying them—and we are not now to learn that the intentions of statesmen are seldom realised by their laws—do not much injure the imports they were intended to annihilate. Our heavy duties on French silks did not annihilate the silk manufactures of France. The heavy duties on our manufactures in the United States have not de stroyed them. Provided the country from which the import of the commodities is to be checked does not play the game of its opponent, by inflicting corres ponding and retaliatory duties—for example, in our ease, on French wines and brandies, or on American wheat and flour—and does not, therefore, prevent the taxing country from sending its goods hither, it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to prevent the im portation of our goods. The French and the Americans will want to be paid for their brandies and their flour, and the certain way, therefore, in spite of fiscal regulations, to force a market for our linen yarn in France is, to lower the duties on French commo dities, and allow France freely to send her gocds hither. We know that such opinions do not suit the frightened, short-sighted, and perhaps greedy, manu facturers. But we are not now to learn—with the ruins of the mercantile system hanging about us — that manufacturers are not to be trusted to dictate laws which affect the general welfare. We there fore do not pay quite so much attention to their fears and their complaints on this point as they think they deserve. According to our view, treaties of commerce and reciprocal duties, about which we hear so much, are of very little importance. It is not possible for other nations to injure us by their regulations, if we do not injure ourselves. It is the imports, we repeat, not the exports, which enrich nations and individuals , and if our rulers do not by stupid regulations keep out imports, as in the case of corn, exports will soon go to pay for them. There is not a Frenchman nor a Yankee who will give us a hogshead of wine or a barrel of flour without getting from us an equivalent. The Ministers did not choose to make a House of Commons last night, and there are many surmises as to the cause. For our parts we scarcely believe that they are frightened at Mr. WALLACE'S motion, what ever effect the state of the country may have on their nerves ; neither do we credit the stories of a rupture in the Ministry; nevertheless, there must have been some strong reason why, at this period of the Session, Sir ROBERT PEEL would not have a House made on a Monday evening. He wants money—he says he cannot get on without the supplies—and yet he threw away a night. Is there a screw loose ? WONDERFUL FILTRATION. An invention has been recently brought forward, which is calculated to have a vast beneficial effect in filtering, and so purifying all the water for domestic and other purposes in the kingdom. Lord Brougham, with many other eminent savans, has been ,surprised and delighted at the effects produced. A machine only five feet square has been made to filter the enormous quantity of two millions five hundred thousand gallons every twenty-four hours ; and that, too, so thoroughly and effectually, that water charged with mud, animalculee, and decomposed vegetable matter has been produced as bright and pure, and sweet, as it originally issued from the spring. The merit of this most useful and valuable invention be longs to a Russian merchant of the name of Stuckey, and the water filtered by it has been examined and certified by Professor Phillips, the eminent chemist. The Grafton Estate in Gloucestershi r e , announced the delicate i in our columns to-day, has draw George Robins's power of descriptinon.awrftel4 ( u m p e o n Mr. .of his ilikainestrtoedirtio:4,t,ds, and complimented the reasypecinta%thyelole men who constitute the Grafton tenantry. Governor We understan d that Sir George Simpson, of the Hudson's Bay territories, of whose intended voyage and journey round the globe we some weeks ago :gave en account, arrived at Ilolalti, one of the Society Islands, on the 12th of February last. As these islands, which are situated in the centre of eiesengtremaotmle'anctihiec Ocean are nearly our anti p odes, the adventurous Knight t: had thus completed his to ur of half the circumference of the earth. It is probable t hat at the p is in Siberia. His arrival in England, via St. Peters burgh, is expected in the fall of the year.—Ross- shire Ad vertiser. London now measures 71 miles in length from east to west, by a breadth of nine miles from north to south. Its circumference, allowing for various inequa lities, is estimated at thirty miles, while the area of ground it covers is considered to measure no less han 18 miles square. THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 5, 1842. PROTEST of the POLISH EXILES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Stn--Ni'o , hope that you will kindly insert in your valuable paper the following Protest of the' Polish Emigiants in London, and as: the protest is in the course of signature we shall have the pleasure of for warding to you the other names as soon as they will he complete.—We have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servants, Colonel Louts Onoam, Chairman. S. .WOucEr.L, Member of the Polish Diet, Sec. London, July 2, 1842. " Not long ago a report got abroad that the invete rate foe of our country, Nicholas, was to proclaim a general amnesty to • the Poles, in commemoration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of his wedding. Some of the newspapers which reported it seemed to rejoice at that forthcoming event, as if the amnesty could restore to our country her lost children, recognise her rights, which have been trampled upon, and reinstate the nation in that independence, without which there is no lie, no existence for it, nor any prospect of re turn to our native country for us.. Convinced, there fore, that some minds entertain a mistaken idea of the Polish cause, we venture to address a few words to the public of the civilised world in explanation of the true position in which the Polish emigration stands towards their country and its oppressor. • " The whole world knows that the Polish Revolu tion of 1830 was not a revolt against a lawful So vereign, but a spontaneous insurrection of a nation to redress its wrongs, re-conquer its violated rights, re-establish its ancient independence. When the indolence of the chiefs, the mismanagement and ma chinations of the - diplomatic party, had frustrated Poland of all the advantages gained upon the field of battle by the valorous army, the Poles did not give up their arms to Russia, but deposited them in the neighbouring countries, reserving to themselves the right of re-taking them at he first opportunity, and thus signifying to Europe that the strife was sus pended only, not finished. The civilised world greeted the emigration with enthusiasm, not us the fugitives, who fled before the punishment of an of ended master, but as the representatives of a great and sacred cause; as the defenders of common liberty, because a murder perpetrated upon one nation was a threat to the liberty of all others. " The lapse of eleven years did not bring any change in the cause of Poland. Now, as then, Poland is the, representative of the popular liberty, and of the right of resisting the foreign oppression. It is now, as it was then, her duty to sacrifice all for the defence of her rights. As then she 'has re deemed with her blood the threatened liberty of the West, so she is ready now to shield the civilization against any attempts of the Muscovite hordes. As then, in spite of fifty years oppression and five times repeated partitions, the Polish people believed in the vitality of his rights to constitute an independent na tion, so he religiously preserves the same faith, and shall never forsake those sacred rights. The genera tion which, in 1830, proclaimed the national inde pendence is still living; and by the side of it arose a new one, christened in the blood of Grochow and. Ostrolenka, brought up amidst the cries and suffer ings of the tortured nation. It is its destiny to com plete the work begun by its predecessors, and by a triumph to deserve those applauds with which the people of the West have greeted our late revolution. And we who have left our country in order to give evidence amongst the friendly nations to the rights and grievances of Poland, and preferred the exile to the disgrace of taking a sacrilegious oath of fidelity to the oppressor of our country, can we now forsake our mission, forswear ..our duties, and slanderously acknowledge our country to have been guilty, by accepting, so many times offered, and -as many times . refused, amnesty ? ! Once more, most solemnly, we repeat, • No ! We shall not accept the amnesty. The emigration being a protest before the world against the spoliations and injustice perpe trated upon our country, we must see first those wrongs redressed. Having left Poland as Poles, we shall not return to it as Muscovites. Having left it with hearts proud of having done our duty, we shall not go back as culprits, and with the same hand, which, in characters of blood, has inscribed upon our native land its rights to independence, liberty, integrity, and progress, we shall not sign a blas phemous acknowledgment that our revolution was a a rebellion—that independence of Poland is a vision." L; is already signed by 70 persons, but we sup press the names on account of the space they occupy. LITERATUEE. MANUAL OF DIGNITIES, PRIVILEGE. AND PRECEDENCE. By C. It. DODD, E.q. Whittaker and Ca This will be found a very useful and interesting. book to persons in all ranks of life, for though it has reference chiefly to the Royal Family , and the higher classes, the respect for titles and ancient pedigree in this country is so great that they form objects of inte rest to even the lowest portion of the community. The system, indeed, which Mr. Dodd here illustrates, pervades the whole of society. Men, even in the lowest scale of social life, admit the necessity of dis tinctions, privileges, and precedence as the best secu rity for good order, as rewards for merit, or as marks orrespect for age, knowledge, and superior acquire ments. By universal consent the elder,-in the lower walks of life, have precedence of the younger ; the fa ther of the son, and the master of the servant. Among the higher ranks this rule is not so general, but at the same time it appears the best adapted for preserving harmony among the varied ranks in wealthy and civilized societies. In a monarchy like that of Great Britain all these distinctions are defined either bylaw or custom, and the object of this work, therefore, is to classify and arrange these in a convenient and intelli gible form. Considering the complicated nature of the work, this •has been well accomplished. It is divided into six heads ; namely, 1, Precedence; 2, the Throne ; 3, Personal Distinctions ; 4; Official and Professional Ranks ; 5, Ceremonies and Costumes ; and 6, Statis tics and Official Lists. These of course contain so many subdivisions and minute details that we have not space to make allusion,even to the fiftieth part of them ; but we may add that the work has been com piled from the best authorities, and been carefully re vised. It is embellished with numerous plates, repre senting the Crown and insignia of the Sovereign, the Coronets of the different ranks in the Peerage, and numerous Orders. The last part will be found use ful for reference, as it contains lists of the Great Offi cial Functionaries, and the Bishops of each see, for several hundred years. The following are specimens of the work : " PRINCE OF WALES.—The Prince of Wales has been at all times regarded as the first subject of the realm — the nearest to the Throne, the most dignified of the Peers in Parliament, and, though not exercising any political power beyond his vote as a legislator, yet re garded by all men as the most eminent personage in the State next after the Sovereign. The Prince of Wales is tise Heir Apparent. The Heir Presumptive may be brother, uncle, nephew, niece, or even a more distant relative of the Sovereign ; but his prospect of eventually succeeding to the Throne gives him no place in the scale of precedency ; the rank he holds is merely de rived from consanguinity." The next extract refers to a title which every vain man likes to see at the tail of his name, and which beggars or applicants for favours are sure to give him : • " The number of persons who by birth are legally entitled to the designation of esquire, far exceeds any possibility of calculation ; for they include the eldest sons of all sons of Peers, the eldest sons of esquires by patent, the eldest sons of knights, and all the eldest sons of these three classes in perpetual succession, as also all the sons of baronets ; hence tens of thousands of gentlemen ..vho receive this affix, apparently as a matter of courtesy, really enjoy a legal right ; and though it be more fre quently used than any other courtesy distinction, yet the right to it is more extensively possessed than readers in general are in the habit of supposing. There cannot be a more vulgar error than to imagine that the affix of esquire, any more than the prefix of sir or lord, is depen dent on what the world calls " respectability." The largest amount of funded property, or the most extensive estates, do not confer such a distinction legally, or even by .courtesy, unless, indeed, the latter should carry with them the lordship of a manor, or a tenantcy in capite. Alechanics and retail tradesmen are not called "gentle men," however vast their wealth or irreproachable their conduct, until they retire from business, or else b come master manufacturers or merchants. Commercial letters are superscribed Mr. A— B—, or Messrs. —, though many of the parties so addressed are esquires in lsw ; but merchants and manufacturers, if written taor ,lesignated in their private capacities, are always ad iiressed and described as esquires. Inasmuch as the courtesy titles of Lord' and Honourable' are given to many thousands who legally are but esquires, so every one who is in law a gentleman, is by courtesy an esquire, in the same way that the son of a Marquis is addressed as Lord Charles —, or Lord William ; and the son of an Earl the Honourable Frederick --, though in all legal instruments and gazettes, even these latter are merely styled esquires. PICTORIAL SHAKSPERE. Part 45. C. Knight, London, 1842. The present part ,of this elaborate edition of the plays and poems of our great dramatist contains the first portion of a biographical memoir of him, written by the Editor in a concise, pains-taking spirit, and . illustrated, as usual, with a choice variety of appro priate embellishments. The explanatory notes inter spersed throughout the memoir, are some of them ex ceedingly curious and interesting. HISTORY OF SURREY. Ede, Dorking, 1842. We have here the First Part of the second volume of Mr. Brayley's History of Surrey —a useful and scru pulously accurate work, which we have already no ticed in terms of deserved praise, when it appeared From month to month in numbers. The view of Claremont--the country-Seat of the King of the Bel gians—which forms the frontispiece, is a very spi rited sketch ; and there is also a curious map of the windings of the river Mole. • SPORTING REVIEW. There are two clever sporting engravings in this number, one of which represents a horse-race in the Bois de Boulogne, and the other contains half-length portraits of four eminent living jockeys. The literary contents exhibit more various matter than is generally the case with this Magazine. HALL'S IRELAND. Part XXI. How and Parsons, London, 1842. The Part before us of this popular work contains a picturesque view of the town of Belfast, with the bold range of mountain headlands in its immediate neigh bourhood : and a map of the counties of Londonderry and Antrim, in which that noble sheet of water, Loch Neagh, forms the most conspicuous object. . Airs. Hall's description of this inland sea, though brief, is spirited and graphic. " Its scenery," she tells us, " is beautiful and interesting, and the lake becomes truly magnificent when influenced by storms, its waves rolling and foaming, like those of the ocean in a tempest ; in the immediate neighbourhood of An trim town, it may vie, in parts, with the fairest of the southern lakes, while it 2 ossesses a grandeur exclu sively its own." Loch l• eagh is the largest sheet of fresh water in Great Britain, and is exceeded in size by few in Europe. It is almost twenty miles. in !ength, about twelve miles in breadth, eighty miles in circumference, and its greatest deuth in the middle is forty-five feet. Besides several other interesting local matters, the present Part furnishes us with some sin gular details respecting that well-known old Irish superstition, the Banshee. FINE ARTS. A fine painting supposed, and not without good reason, to be a Georgione, is now being exhibited at the Italian and Flemish Gallery, Pall-mall. It repre sents the Golden Age, and consists of several striking groups of figures, some reposing indolently on the ground, and some standing, engaged in conversation ; and all stationed in the foreground of a most pic turesque landscape, whose colouring is wonderfully rich and fresh. To the left of the spectator, in one corner of the picture, is the figure of a female, the flesh tints orwhich are defined with all the grace and beauty of a Correggio. The most remarkable peculi arity of this painting is the sunny, cheerful character which pervades all its details. It is an excellent spe cimen of the old Italian school, and, considering its age, is in an extraordinary state of preservation.

Last night a new piece was brought out at this theatre, written by Mr. Raymond, and we are happy—very happy—to say that it met with and deserved. complete success, and we cannot refrain fiom expressing a hope that the performances at this English house will receive the patronage of a British public. The play to which we have alluded is called The Lone Hut, and its story is soon told. A peasant named Jerome (F. Matthews), has a daughter, Lisette (Miss Crisp), who is loved by Antoine, a peasant in the neighbourhood. She, however, has formed an attachment for Lindorf (Diddear), who is sup posed to be a person of high birth and great wealth, and this attachment is apparently returned. The time of the nuptials is fixed, and there are to be gay doir.gs in the village; but in the meantime Hortense (Miss Faucit), a niece of Je rome 's has met Lindorf , whom she had known under another name, and also knew that he had murdered a relation. She declares to him that if he will not give up Li sette she will denounce him, but upon his prtmising to do so she swears she will not divulge the secret. On the return of Hortense to her uncle's, he charges her with base ingratitude in having been guilty of inducing Lindorf not to marry his daughter. She will not tell him the reason, and he drives her from his house. Lindorf hears of this, and under pretence of protecting her, he hires a man to conduct her to the moun tains, having P•r a bribe promised Brent (A. Wigan) to let him have his " lone hut" for one night. He then employs an Hungarian (O. Smith) to be at the hut that night, and to murder Hortense. Here is a very fine and effective scene be tween Miss Faucit and 0. Smith, and drew down loud plau dits. Hortense is to be dispatched immediately the clock strikes twelve, but just before that time Antoine and Brent arme, rescue her, and kill the Hungarian. Lindorf believing llureuse to have beenkilled, returns and claims Lisette, and they are about to be united when Hortense again appears, denounces him, and h e i s shot in an attempt to make his escape through a miamtain pass. There are two lively parts, w hich are played by Harley and Miss Murray, who excited great laughter. '1 he acting throughout was exceedingly good, and what is not often the case upon a f rst representation, the performers were appa rently perfect in their parts. There was a very pretty ballet in troduced, which met with an unanimous encore. Some of the se, very was extremely beautiful. The curtain fell amidst the most enthusiastic cheering, and the piece vas given out for re pew ion this evening; and we have no doubt'it will be highly successful. globe in the window of a A native of the Green Isle , say s the Chelt enham F o r l e d e fi P s crs si l m va g g n hr a ou g g ia h s t s lie streets of a fashionable watering-place, in the west of E n g land, and seein g so me druggist's mi n shop, exclaimed--" Och -by my soul, an' sure this is the first time I have seen l ive red berrini !"

The meeting of the Delegates assembled at Palace. yard this morning, fully justifies the anticipation that the hostile feeling of the public in reference to the operation of the Corn-laws is not in the least abated. The Depu tation is already most numerous, while every hour wit the fresh arrival of gentlemen charged to repre sent the depressed condition of every manufacturing interest, and the poignant sufferings of industrious, but nesse: ow compulsorily idle, multitudes of our fellow-sub jects. The gentlemen now sitting wear an aspect, in many respects, wholly different - from that which they have heretofore assumed. On former occasions they appeared to vindicate the righteousness of their claim, and the claim of our national industry to a free com mercial intercourse with the world at large, and rather spoke of evils which they apprehended than of those ac tually experienced ; now, however, they appear to re present, in their own persons and on behalf of their perishing constituents, the frightful and often fatal effects of that policy which before they solight to change. Every man appears ()Ran errand of life and death. The speakers seem too full for utterance. The scenes of ruin from which ) they have come, and which rise before them in all their horrible features and disorganising - tendencies, deprive them alike of the power and inclination to discuss the abstract principle, and force thetn to speak chiefly of the awful danger which at this moment . menaces the safety of the citizens and the most precious institutions of the country. The speeches of Mr. BRIGHT and Mr. PUNT, so full of just indignation against the callous and deceptive conduct of the Government, were responded to with a fervour and unanimity which proved that the entire body of the Delegates deem the time come to use a language of remonstrance much stronger than any_be fore employed. Heavy indeed is • the responsibility of our rulers ! Will they awake to duty before it is utterly too late ? We shall see. We are surprised to find a Liberal Morning Contem porary advocating the policy of our permanently occu pying Afllghanistan. The most imperfect knowledge 0, hat country—of its immense distance from the seat of )ur Indian Empire—of the warlike tribes by whom it is inhabited—and of the fierce nations which surround it, ought to open the eyes of any person capable of think ing rightly upon any subject, to the extreme folly—:he utter madness of such a proceeding. Talk of the am bition of Russia ! She is moderation itself compared with a large class of British politicians. They think as little about swallowing up eastern kingdoms as chat tering monkeys do of cracking as many nuts. While railing against Russia, they would first take Affghan istan, where it would be impossible ever to sheathe the sword. As Lahore and the country of the Sikhs would then be between us and our Indian territory, another war must be undertaken to dethrone the Sovereign of the Punjaub, and thus subject to our sway the dominion of the late Maharajah, RUNJEET SINGH. .Commercial pretexts would be set up for the seizure of Herat ; and thus, supposing success possible, would we have pushed our frontier to the confines of Persia, by a series of acts as imprin cipled as ever were hatched by the Czarina CATHA RINE 11., for the conquest of the Crimea, or by the Arch duke CONSTANTINE for the prostration of Poland. The whole world is already arrayed against the unceasingly aggressive policy of Great Britain. There is not a people on the surface of the globe in the smallest degree conversant with our history, who can be persuaded of our sincerity when we profess to make war vith no view to extent or territory, but simply to vindicate our honour. Our Contemporary may make light of this matter if he pleases, but to us it wears a very serious aspect. It proves, as Dr. CHANNING has well remarked, that there is something radically wrong in our system of foreign policy. We have not the art of inspiring confidence and love ; suspicion and fear herald all our approaches even to the aid of our friends. But our Con ! temporary shall be heard in his own words. We sub join an extract from his article : From the renewed success of our arms in Affghanistan, there can remain no question whatever on the nature of the policy ultimately to be pursued—of the absolute necessity of our retaining power ever a region which either Russia will mould to the accomplishment of her own stratagems, or Eng land must govern in toto. Of the facility with which its milt. tary re-conquest is to be secured, there is abundant tvidence in the favourable change which the character of events has taken. General Pollock's triumphant passage through the Khyber, combined with his arrival to the relief. of Jellalabad, together with the movement effected by General England, in reference to Candahar, and his success at Hykulzie, where be attacked and carried the enemy's position without the loss of a single man, are events in illustration that the complete military sub jugation of the whole territory cannot engross more than the briefest period, and that then the question of the political policy to be pursued must be adopted with a decision allowing of no divergence to plans imperfect, and not containing an inviolable principle. To overrun Affghanistan is not to subdue it. The know ledge of this fact has been purchased at an expense of thirteen millions sterling of British treasure, and more than twenty thousand of British subjects, whose life blood has saturated its passes, its mountains, and its capital. The late gallant Col. DENNIE, who served fur thirty years in India, and who led the forlorn hope which captured Ghuznee under the command of Sir JOHN, now Lora - KEANE—an officer as distinguished for high mili tary talent, as for bravery—has left on record his con viction. that nothing could be wilder than our whole scheme of invading Caubul, except the attempt to remain in it an hour after the complete triumph of our arms. Nor have our reverses in Afighanistan b: en so few or so isolated as to justify us in speaking contemptuously of the valour of a people among whom we expended nearly as much hard cash as bayonet thrusts and musket-bullets. Let us just enumerate a few of our reverses, the first twelve of which we find in Col. DENNIE's correspond ence :—There - was first CLARKE with his detachment and convoy massacred ; 2d, a similar escort and convoy under a native officer destroyed ; 3d, Clibborn's detachment of 1,100 men nearly cut in pieces, guns and all material captured ;, 4th, Khelat retaken ; sth, Quettah besieged ; 6th, defeat at Pushoot; 7th, M`Gregor's party cut up, and guns captured on the frontier of Bajore ; Bth. Dadur in vested ; 9th, retreat from Balghur and Syghan with loss of tents, arms, ammunition, provisions, &c. ; 10th, defeat at Joolgan ; 11th, 2d Cavalry scattered and driven off the field, and our retreat from Yuman Hurrah ; 12th, late disaster near Bagh (in Scinde) repulsed with great loss ; 13th, murder of the British Envoy, and frightful mas sacre at Caubul ; 14th, repulse of General PoLLocK's advanced division in theFtyber Pass; 15th, recapture of Ghuznee, and massacre of the garrison ; and last of all, the driving hack of General England from the Khyber to Quettab, whole he remained till commanded by General Norr to fight his way to Candahar. All these reverses show what a brave and resolute race we have to deal with, and that, unlike the indolent castes on the plains of Hindostan, they are not to be conquered by the loss, not of one battle only, but of twenty. The Affghans, like ourselves, know not when they bre beaten ; and peace ably to rule their country would be, in fact, to desolate it by the sword. Having impressed the Affghans with a speedy and a wholesome dread of us, our wisest policy is to abandon their country voluntarily, and at once, and thus secure both their respect and friendship. Having taught them to dread our power, let us show them in what way they can maintain our friendship and secure our aid. It is faithful, devoted, and vigilant allies, not territory, that we want on our North-Western Indian I frontier. There is an absolute dearth of news in the French journals of Sunday. An Express from Paris of Mon day's date states that a commercial treaty is about to be sinned bet Ween France at.d Belgium, by one article of which Belgian linen and linen threads are to be ad mitted into France at the rate of duty paid prior to the date of the late Royal Ordinance, Belgium agreeing to lower tile duties upon French wines. This will turn our linen trade into a new channel. Instead of supplying France directly with linen, we shall now do so by way of Belgium. at an increased expense to France.

OLD CO UR T. , 1 Francis Cooke aged 22, and Alfred Barnes 20, cli.scribea'j, as labourers, were charged with feloniously receiving on the 14th of June last, 12 yards of silk, six yards of calico, and eigu yards of fringe, value 20s. the property of Thomas Warren , ` well knowing the same to have been stolen. ".s 4 Mr. Philips appeared for the prisoners. Thos. Warren, the prosecutor, who is the well known up' 5,e0 holster in Oxford-street, deposed that he entered into a on: 6 3 tract with the Committee of the Spitalfields Ball to furnish the s i Italian Opera House with decorations on the occasion of the in a !' ,0 0 niticent ball which took place at the Opera House, under the auspices of her Majesty, for the relief of the distressed Spit' r: e fields weavers. The decorations on being returned to w itnesh were found to be deficient in several instances, and the proPei l l now produced composed a part of the deficient decorations. John Jobnforth, C 182, stated that he was on duty n' Pall-mall on the 14th of June, when he saw the prisonff i loitering about under the Opera collonade. He shortly aft' ~ " wards observed Cooke go into No. 4, Pall-mil, and in a 0 14 time come out having a bundle under his arm, which costal!, " 1 / 1 some of the property identified by the last witness.

An Extraordinary Express from Paris, dated yester day (Monday) states that a Commercial. Treaty is al most ready for signature between the French and Belgian Governments. The Belgians reduce the duties on French wines, silks, and salt.. The French admit Belgian thread and linen. The Belgians still hold out for so►ne conces sions on iron ; but the Treaty will probably be signed this week. M. Tillers has completely lost caste in France. Never was a man more fallen. Ile is despised by the extreme Liberals, feared by the moderate ones, and hated by the Conservatives. He has not gone, as was reported, to take the waters at Vechy. He has left Paris for Aix, w here his re-election is seriously menaced by a coalition of the Royalists and Ministerialists. It has been consi rered strange that M. Thiers has published no mani festo ; but it is now thought he must take the course he wished to avoid—speak out at Aix.. M. Odilon Barrot presents himself in some half dozen colleges, including one in Paris, in opposition to General Jacqueminot. M. Barrot's first circulars having been found flat and unprofitable, he prepared another, but this was too spicy, and it has been withdrawn. The Left party, to which he belongs, and the Left Centre or M. Theirs, will suffer much during the elections, but the Extreme Left (Republicans and Philosophical Rad icals) and the Extreme Right (Royalists) are expected to gain. The Paris correspondent of the Gazette of Upper Germany states, that the King of the French lately ex pressed himself in the following terms, when speaking of M. de Lainartine :—" I thank God for having pre served for the conclusion of my life, which has been so agitated, so noble and so pure a character as M. de La martine, for he is not only a Minister, but a Minister calculated to promote the prosperity of France." These words were repeated by a Minister in a political saloon. Telegraphic despatches from Bayonne of the 2d inst. bring advices from Madrid of the 27th ult., on which day the Spanish Ministry had withdrawn the project of law relat►ve to the provincial deputations. A second despatch, of the 28th, announces that the Congress had voted the Bill fixing the effective of the Spanish army at 130,000 (90,000 effective and 40,000 reserve) by a majority of 60 against 22. The Madrid Gazette publishes a circular of the Mi nister of Marine to his subordinates, in which he promises to place the military navy of Spain on a respectable foot ing, which would enable it to afford an efficacious protec tion to her transatlantic possessions. The Barcelona Constitucional of the 27th ult. states; that five Carlo-Christino bandits having been captured by the National Guard of Escala, three who had been taken with arms in their hands, were immediately shot, and the two others were transferred to the competent authorities. The Frankfort Journal states that the King of Prussia arrived at Posen on the . 24th ult. The following great . . personages are expected to assist at the markeUvres which are to take place in the Rhenish provinces on the King's return from St. Petersburgh ;—The Kings of Bavaria, Hanover, Belgium, Holland, Wurtemberg, and Saxony, two reigning Dukes, two French Princes, and a Prince of Sweden. The Leipsic Gazette publishes a private letter from the frontiers of Italy, stating that arrests had been made lately at Pisa, in the kingdom of Naples. arid in the Pon• tifical States. Although numerous bodies of troops are quartered throughout the peninsula, symptoms of serious disturbances manifest themselves on all points. The Swiss troops at Naples inspire no fear. Our accounts from Beyrout are of the 10th ult. An apprehension was entertained that a general rising would shortly take place in the mountain. On the Bth Emir Abdalla, with his two sons, sought refuge on board an English frigate. On the 9th the Seraskier Mustapha and Izzet, Pasha waited in person on Colonel Rose, to demand the surrender of the Emir. The Colonel re turned a formal refusal. The Pacha said that they would carry him off by force. The Colonel replied, pointing at the frigate, "He is there ; take him if you eau." On the 10th, twelve Sheiks retired on board the same frigate, having been informed that they would be arrested in the course of the day. Several others who did not avail themselves of the caution were actually apprehended. The Turks had arranged a plot for seiz ing by a coup de main the Catholic patriarCh of Lebanon. PARLIAMENTARY. In the House of Lords last night the Duke of Rich mond inquired whether another attempt had been made on her Majesty's life, and the Earl of Aberdeen said he could make no statement, as the subject was under in vestigation. Lord Brougham adverted to charging the . lncome-tax ou the half-year's dividends now in the course of pay ment, and the Earl of Ripon said he would inquire whether it is to be the case or not. Their Lordships then adjourned. Less than forty Members of the House of Commons being found together at fodr o'clock, that House stood adjourned till this day._ PIInZIC OPINION. The Herald has the following sensible remarks on the late attack on the Queen :—" We regret to observe the almost universally-excited comment which Sunday's outrage on her Majesty has provoked, because we feel convinced that the edi torial silence of the press would have a much more wholesome effect on such occasions—if we are to have a constant succes sion of these criminal and brutal offences—than overwrought expressions of just indignation and general loyalty. There is wisdom, we are certain, in silence about these attacks, and the less the public knows about the details of, and the smaller comment there is made on these crimes, the greater safety is there for Queen Victoria, whom God long bless and preserve to reign over a people who are satisfied with her rule, and who honour and respect her personally. Depraved minds are ever on the alert to discover how they shall most easily obtain bail notoriety; and the elevation of these insults into the promi nent topic of passing discussion stimulates, if it does not beget, other treasonable assaults." The Times recommends that the experiment of a strenuous flagellation should be tried on Bean, observing :—" For our selves, we are inclined strongly to agree with a coteir porary and with sundry correspondents• who have confided to us their ardent desires on that subject, that the present is a case which most eminently invites those painful and disgraceful corporal punishments which are now so nearly disused. One or more very hearty floggings in public are the kind of medicine which this disgraceful vanity best deserves. Our respected friends are liberal in their views in this respect—flogging, ducking, pillory, tarring and feathering, nay branding, as furnishing a fitting crown to this young gentleman's aspirations after noto riety. We do not know whether he is of that age at which we believe flogging is still occasionally administered by public authority ; if so, we earnestly hope that that wholesome disci pline may be applied zealously and effectually to his person. His act shows that transportation is without terror to that par ticular compound of knave and fool which he represents ; we should like to try the effect of a different medicine." The Advertiser thus alludes to the meeting, announced for this day, of the Deputies from the Anti-Corn-Law League : " This day the Deputies from the various manufacturing dis tistricts assemble in the metropolis for deliberation and action, in reference to the distress of the country, and the remedy which it demands. Never did a body of men meet under more solemn or responsible circumstances. Our eyes are turned from the bribe-bought Parliament, which has thus far legisla ted only to deceive and oppress the people, to those whose mis sion is undertaken solely with a view to restore justice and re vive the days of honest toil and sweet contentment, which have so long been banished by the cruel demon of monopoly. The men now in town stand in a position peculiarly sacred and corn mai,ding. They come, not merely to contend for a principle just in itself, but to contend for it at a time when life and death hang upon the issue of contest." We take the following from the Chronicle :—" Letters from all parts of the kingdom give uniformly the same accounts of the universality of distress and suffering. If Stockport and Burnley be somewhat in advance of other towns, this is a distinction which they will not be long suffered to preserve. Numerous other places in every quarter are fast approximating to the same degree of wretchedness. Every day things assume a darker appearance. We were yesterday shown a letter from Leicester, in which it was stated that two manufacturers, who spent 8001. a week in wages, six weeks ago, had found it ne cesary to curtail their business so much that they now spent only 2001. a week, and it was believed that they would not continue long to give any employment whatever. A most re spectable solicitor, just arrived from Manchester, states that every day a fearful addition is made to the number of hands thrown out of employment, and that in the course of last week upwards of 2,000 have been turned off. Agriculture is be ginning seriously . to feel the difficulties of the crisis. The farmers in the neighbourhood of Rochester are reducing the wages of their labourers, to be able to meet the Income-tax. Incendiary fires, on the other hand, are on the increase. One palter, the Wiltshire Independent, contained in one number, Est week, accounts of no fewer than seven fires. The insur ance offices are in consequence raising their prices." IVIONET—TIZADE—CONEIVIERCE. By the . late fire in Bermondsey losses to the amount of 15,5001. fall on different insurance companies in the metropolis. At a meeting of the Anon Gold-stream Works Company, held yesterday in Cornhill, it was stated that a stream of gold had been discovered in the Anori river, New Granada, which a t needed e ava valuable to s e am have of the gol Aboutriver-bed deepened a few 15,0001, has be feet ;en spteon spent in the speculation since 1826. The meeting adjourned for a fortnight to consider of a further vote. , MLECTIONEETUNG. The names of four candidates have been mentioned as likely to be started by the Duke of Buckingham to succeed Sir Wil liam Young : Colonel Vyse, Mr. Drake, Colonel Ilanmer, and the Hon. Mr. Fitzmaurice, NAVAL AND Lieut.-General Sir William Parker Carroll, K.C. H., far meiey of the 18th or Royal Irish Regiment, and commander of the troops in the western (Athlone) district, died at Nenagh last Sunday. MAW AND POLXCE. Thirty-nine indictments for wilful murder have been framed by the Crown in the police case for the Ennis Assizes, in lAllich each man, of the 38 committed, is severally charged as a p, in cipal, the rest aiding and abetting. Colonel Draper, of the Lumber Troop, applied for a sum mons } esterday, at Guildhall, against the landlord of the Doctor Johnson, in Bolt-court, who was recently the Coinyany's sut tier, for detaining their cannons, flags, pictures, &e., of the value of 31.30/. for alleged non-payment of their debt. It was granted, and made returnable for Saturday. '1 he fifth day's sittings of the Special Commission for Tip perary, held at Clonmel, has brought in judgment of " Guilty " against the prisoners Cornelius Flynn ar.d Patrick Dwyer, for tiring with a pistol at George M'Donnell, and a similar Eentenw against John Pound, for firing with a gun at Bridget and Pa trick Cormack. The punishment of the former prisoners has not yet been awarded, but Pound has ben sentenced to two years' imprisonment, with solitary confinement and hard labour. WINE AMTS. Of the naffaelle and M.
