We intreat them to weigh well the ' serious responsibility that devolves on them ; to re flect that the eyes of the whole empire are directed with the most anxious earnestness to their proceed ings. The contest in which they are engaged is no common ooe. It is a question of freedom or slavery ; a struggle for life or death. As this struggle draws nearer to a close, the vote of each in dividual elector becomes a matter of national moment. It may turn the scale. It may free the county. It may carry despair to the hearts of the borough mongers. It may do more. It may impress on the minds of the people the important fact that, in con tests of this nature between right and wrong, where such vast forces are called into the field on either side, the man who shirks the cause of justice, who hangs aloof, who sneaks off from the battle plain under pretence of having his horse re-shod by a farrier, becomes from that moment a marked man. Me cannot escape observation. He cannot avoid scorn. All were in the field but him. All were strug gling for freedom but him. He was the only one who deserted his country. Let his name then perish for ever, or be only • remembered as a by-word for treason and cowardice. Such, in a greater or a less degree, will be the fate of every individual elector who now deserts the cause of freedom, as repre sented by Lords ALTHORP and MILTON. It is impossible that he can remain concealed. The jea lousy of his brother freeholders is already ex cited ; they will enter into an inquisitorial scrutiny ; and not cease till they have learned and exposed the names of every elector who opposed the glorious cause. We understand that there are many non-resident voters in, and about, the metropolis. If so, we conjure them to hasten to the poll; to lose not a day, not an hour, in their endea vours to emancipate Northamptonshire. As the , I ,4essings of the Reform Bill come home to all, so nould all do their utmost to support it. If it were merely a question of party, from the gain or loss of which the people would reap little or no benefit, the case would be different; but it is a question n w hich the dearest and best interests of the com munity are involved; a question by the success of which the condition of every individual, no matter how insignificant he may think himself, will be &meliorated. Surely then that man is an ideot, who, when the opportunity of advancing his interests is presented to him, suffers the golden moment to escape,aud the stream of good fortune to glide by him unnoticed ! Electors of Northampton, to your post--to your post. What business have you in London, when you should be fighting the battle of freedom in your Own county ? Away with you, one and all, to the field of honour. There is not a moment to lose. Time presses : the boroughmongers are desperate : and one vote—one single vote—may decide the contest. We doubt whether the approaching anniversary of Mr. PITT'S birth-day will boast of a large share of intellect. There is a strong suspicion abroad that the " Pilot who 'weathered the storm" would have dealt more fairly by his country, if he had paid the expense of his own wars, instead of throwing it Upon the shoulders of a suffering posterity. Thanks to the schoolmaster, the public have awoke from a long dream, and henceforth continental wars, oppres sive taxes, and Bank Restriction Bills will no longer --through the agency of borough mongers—be thrust down John Bull's throat. From the date of a re formed Parliament this great country will own no Pilot" that will plunge us into war without the means of paying for it. There will, in future, be no Bank Restriction Bills—no plundering of the public creditor by means of a false paper money ; no public swearing that twenty-one shillings and twenty seven shillings are one and the same thing : all will be plain, smooth, and above-board. Still there is a knot of Statesmen who yet worship Mr. PITT and his principles; and for their instruction we now beg to place under their noses the opinion of a practical man as to one of Mr. PITT'S great measures—the Bank Restriction Bill. It is taken from a recent pamphlet, entitled ." Papers picked up at Sea relating to the Question of Currency and Banking;" and in allusion to it the author thus indignantly ex resses himself :—" Of all the curses that can light upon a commercial nation—worse than any of the plagues of Egypt—lice, locusts, or the murrain ►mongst cattle—is the curse of having no common ntelligible standard, or measure of value : for State capriciously to alter the standard is the nex► worse thing to having no standard at all ; it is to derange and scatter to the winds all security in the contracts between man and man." We have received the entire of the Paris Jour nals of Tuesday, the Gazette de France and illes sager des Chambres, dated yesterday, and a vast [lumber of other Continental Journals. Their con tents are not important. The Augsburg Gazette, on the authority of letters from Berlin, confirms the accounts of the retreat of the Russians. The re volt in Turkey was becoming general, and had be gua to excite alarm at Vienna. The Funds re mained nearly stationary at Paris.

The following are extracts from Brussels and German Papers received this morning : BRUSSELS, MAY 16.—Yesterday morning, at three o'clock, 500 Dutch troops sallied from the citadel of Ant werp, and took possession of Fort St. Laurent. This affair has caused a great sensation at Antwerp. The Dutch flag is flying on the ramparts of the fort. From that position they can sweep all the environs ; they have cut through the causeway to Boom ; they have pallisaded it, and are now busy in fortifying it. Only a knowledge of the place can give a notion of the importance of this position. According to general opinion the fort was neutral. The causeway of Boom has always been fi (vented by the Belgians. The fort was not occupied by the Dutch on the 21st of November, or for a long time before that date. We shall see whether such a violation of the armistice will be allowed. The city of Antwerp is perfectly tranquil, the theatre is much frequented, though it is opposite the citadel, the guns of which are pointed towards it, but people accustom themselves to any thing. BRUSSELS, MAY 17.—General Billiard and Mr. White, secretary to Lord Ponsonby, set out yesterday for Antwerp, the object of their journey is supposed to be to prevent the effects of the violation of the armistice committed at Ant werp by the Dutch. The deputation sent to London returned yesterday. A British Cabinet me.senger arrived here yesterday afternoon, and repaired to the residence of the Regent. VIENNA, MAY 7.-4 per Cent. Aletalliques 71. ; Bank Shares, 1,014. The German Papers to the 14th of May contain: no fur. tier news from Poland. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Letters have been received this morning from Antigua, dated the Ist of April, from which we learn that one man had been hung, and the Court-martial was sitting un twelve others. A sloop of war, and a transport with troops, had arrived there from Barbadoes. All was quiet at the above period. The following Order of the Day was sent to all the Generals of Divisions in the Belgian army - (EXTRACT. ) . _ _ " Threatened on one side by the German Confederation, and on the ether by the Dutch troops which still occupy several points of our territory, which the armistice alone prevents us from expelling them, tie Belgian Government is obliged to prepare for war; also to organise all the corps of the army, and to establish a discipline equal to the courage of which it has given an example." - Letters from t! e frontiers of Holland state, that the Dutch army has been put on the war footing, and the ac counts from Luxemburg speak of a Protocol which limits the Ist of June for the Belgians to give up the Grand Duchy. The Belgians, on their side, are preparing for hostilities. The French Papers state, that the cholera morbus has appeared in Gallicia. A letttr from Tarnopol announces its appearance in that town and some other places on the Russian frontiers. The people die so fast, that it is with much difficulty they can bury them. The whole of the circle of Chorostlow is encumbered with dead bodies, as is also that of Culozn. A report prevailed at Warsaw that the Russians have been forced to evacuate Ostrolenka with considerable loss of men. Nothing of importance had occurred. The Poles were determined not to give a general battle to the Russian*, but wished to draw theta towards Warsaw, as the position of Praga, which has of late been at strongly fortified, would prove most advantageous to the Poles in case of it general attack from the Russims. THE FUNDS. The express from Paris this morning does not bring any news of importance ; the leaving off price of the French rentes by the estafette is said to come higher 65f. 40e. ; consequently a small improvement has taken place in our funds. Consols, which left off yesterday at 82i for the Ac count opened at S2i, afterwards were done at 82*, and at present are 82-i. It is not expected that much busi ness will be doing, owing to most of the brokers taking their departure for the races about eleven o'clock. In the Foreign Market nothing going forward.

There is a long letter at Lloyd's of an affair which ha taken place at Antwerp, on which subject we have received the following two letters:— ANTWERP, MAY 17.—Things are getting worse and worse daily. On Sunday we had skirmishing at the cita del, caused by the Dutch troops having taken possession of an outwork, which, although formerly within their limits, they did not think it proper of late to oc cupy. General Billiard and Mr. Cartwright have come here to inquire into the particulars of this affair, since which nothing hostile has occurred, but we continue in a dreadful state of alarm and anxiety occasioned by this event, and persons are preparing to leave this town. Hos tile preparations are still going on round the citadel. Not less than six batteries are in progress of being erected, which adds more to our fears that Prince Cohourg will not accept the Crown of Belgium." Extract of another letter, of the same date :—" The whole of yesterday we were in the greatest alarm ; in the afternoon of the 15th, and yesterday morning, some firing took place between our troops and those of the citadel,— we had 15 wounded ; since which no further hostilities have taken place. It is supposed that General Billiard and Mr. Cartwright will interfere, and try to settle the affray, that we may not experience a second bombardment."

It originated in some boys planting some in the outworks of the Dutch ; they were desired to take ag away and disperse; having refused the muskets ere themfire over them. • It is said that two hundred Dutch prisoners were expected to be brought into Ant werp,. who were working at a dyke; but it ap pears that all w as in consternation there wh en tii accounts left. We have no other continental information at present. In the Foreign Slarket nothing doing ; indeed the house is almost empty owing to the races. THREE O'CLOCK.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EPSOM RACBS.- WED:VILMA r. The show of company on the Downs yesterday, although very poor, was superior to that on Tuesday, owing, no doubt, to the Gold Cup, which has always had considerable influence on the attendance. Those, how ever, who visited the races with the idea that they would he better either in quality or quantity, did not find their expectations realized, for the last afforded only three stakes of ordinary interest, and neither of these produced a con test of any severity. In short, every thing seems to be reserving itself for the Derby day, which, in its attributes, racing, company, and dust, is likely to maintain its cha racter for originality and amusement. If there be any truth in the report that his Majesty will be present inco9., the races will go off with an eclat that has not not attended them for many years. We regret that the rumour is unsupported by any authority. We believe that the Earl of Derby tendered an invitation to his Ma jesty, which was declined, with a promise of honouring the races with his presence next year. The company in the Grand Stand yesterday was more select than numerous, notwithstanding the moderate price of admission, which is one-fourth less than at York and Doncaster, where the accommodations are of a deciderEy inferior description. The charges for refreshments are also on a vale of fairness that gives general satisfaction. Our list of fashionables, as on Tuesday, will be found to be little more extensive than in our former report. Duke of Grafton, Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter, Marquis Graham, Earl of Verulam, Earl of Orford, Earl and Countess of Chesterfield, Earl Derby, Sir M. Wood, General Grosvenor, Colonel Udney, Colonel Anson, Capt. Bvng, Colonel Cosby, Capt. Locke, Messrs. B. Craven, F. Mills, Stanley, Rust, Harris, Moberly, &c. The running was decided as follows : The Surrey Stakes of 25 sovs. each, 15 ft. Derby Course. Mr. Wetherell's Taglioni, 4 yrs Lord Lowther's Rossignol, 5 yrs 2 Mr. Maberly's c. by Middleton—lNianine, 4 yrs. 3 Four p aid five soya. each. Even and 5 to 4on Ros signol, who made all the running to the distance, where the mire challenged, and after a short struggle won by a length cleverly ; rode by F.

The winner to be sold for 2501., &c ; 10 subs. Lord Ongley's Suffolk Punch, 4 yrs Lord Orford's c. by Wrangler, 3 yrs 2 Mr. H. Day's Ofellus, 5 yrs 3 Mr. Scarth's f.

Day ; Harmony, by Wakefield ; Bobbinette, by a lad ; and Watchman, by F. Buckle. The Woodcut Stakes of 30 sovs. each, h. ft., for two•year olds. Half a mile. (8 subs.) Lord Lowther's b. f. by Partisan Mr. Grant's b. f. by Partisan Sir G. Heathcote's ch. f. by Straightwaist The following started, but were not placed by the Judge Mr. Shard's b. 1.

'f'ate's b. f. by Borodino, d. by Walton Mr. Crouch's b. f. by Reveller . _ Even betting on the Bizarre filly.--A short quick run race ; the three horses placed were in front all the way ; Bizarre leading, and winning very cleverly by a length. There were three or four false starts. The winner was rode by Wheatley ; Fatima, by Lye ; Paradigm, by F. Buckle; Miss Littleton, by Wakefield; Tate's filly, by Conelly ; Schoolboy, by Macdonnell ; and Mrs. Fudge, by Wright. THE DERBY STAKES. Some important changes took place in the betting on the course; Mr. Rush's colt, which on Tuesday night was at almost any odds, made a spring in the course of the day of 20 or 30 points ; be will be jockeyed by Robinson. Riddlesworth was backed even, and will probably be at 50r6 to 4 against the field. Blunder declined to 11 to 1. Mustachio colt also fell back two or three points. It is pretty well understood that Black Daphne will not start. Medora and Achilles are also very doubtful. About twenty two are expected to run. Lord Exeter's two will be rode by Pavis and Chapple, Dockery being unable to ride the weight. If Rattler should not start, W. Scott will ride Bras de Fer. Nothing fresh in the Oaks betting. THE OAKS. The performances of the favourite for this stakes have been of the first.rate character. Last year she won a stake at York and two at Doncaster, heating Lady Frac tious, the Georgiana filly (twice) ; Colwick, Bras de Fer, Mandane colt, the S idler, Frantic, Gitana, Elney, Vic. toire. Morgiana filly, Goodluck, Sister to Maria, and Wathcote Lass filly. In the Craven Meeting this season she also heat Titania easy. Oxygen has won four times ; was second for the July Stakes ; won the Anson and Clearwell Stakes, beating Bohemian, Thalestris filly, Eg bert (twice), Bobbinette, Gallontine, Rainazon, .lassaroni, Fandango f., Lione-s, Washington, Bildeston Lass, Sedan, and Tam o'Shanter, not one of which is in any estimation. She ran in the I,ooogs. Stakes without a place. Lioness has now only to be beaten ; she was not even placed in the July, Clearwell, and Pren4rgast Staks, and was second to Gallantine, who was beaten easily in the Newmarket Stakes, for the 1,000 Stakes. Delight won the two-y ear = old Stakes at Winchester, Oxford, Warwick, and Abing don, beating horses that have not yet done any thing to make her out a flyer. It is worthy of remark, that Mr. Sadler's horses generally run good two-year-olds, but do not come out well the next season. Titania was beaten by Circassian, and beat Red Rose in a match, giving 7lb s. Alea, we should imagine, owes her popularity solely to being in Lord Jersey's stable ; for, beating such things as Earwig and Mazurka, can hardly be set off against the shameful defeat she received in Marcus's Plate race last year. The following is a list of fillies expected to start, an d their riders:— Mr. Houldsworth's Circassion, to be rode by J. Day. Duke of Grafton's Oxygen—J. Day. Mr. Stonehewer's Lioness—J. Robinson. Mr. Sadler's Delight—Chapple. Lord Chesterfield's Titania—S. Day. Lord Jersey's Alea—G. Edwards. Sir G. Heathcote's Shrine—F. Buckle. Mr. Maberly's Farce—Wright. Mr. Chifney's Surprise filly—Chifney.

Upon this humble token of respect (contributed in the hour of defeat) the Blue Electors of Newark inscribe their sense of the splendid ability, unwearied perseverance, and disinterested public spirit displayed by Mr. Serjeant WILDE, in maintaining the two contests of 1829 and 1830, in order to emancipate the borough from political thraldom, and restore to its in habitants the free exercise of their long lost rights. 183 1 .

The Marshal Bennett transport arrived last evening with troops, in consequence of despatches sent to Barbadoes. The Columbine sloop of war has also arrived from the same cause. One of the incendiarie, was hanged the day before yesterday, and a Court-martia l is sitting on about a dozen taken up for the same offence.'. MEETING OF THE COUNTY MAGIS TRATES.-(THIS DAY.) At twelve o'clock this forenoon a meeting of the Ma. gistrates in the commission for the county of Middlesex. took place at the Sessions-house on Clerkenwell-green, for the despatch of business connected with the affairs of the said county. The Chairman, FRANCIS CONST, Esq., having taken his seat, Mr. ALLEN, clerk of the peace, read a letter from one of the Grand Jury, named Thomas Livesey, addressed to the Magistrates, regretting the increase of crime committed by juvenile offenders, and suggesting the propriety of sending them to an - establishment under the direction of Mr. Henry Wilson, and countenanced by Lord Belgrave and Sir Richard Birnie, where they would be employed in cultivating land, and kept there till they have suffi ciently reformed themselves so as to be restored to society good and useful members. The plan would be occasioned with less expense than by the present mode of treatment, and in his (the w;iter's) opinion would be a preventive to the present dreadful increase of juvenile delinquency. There was a postscript attached to the letter, stating that the letter would have been signed by the whole of the Grand Jury had not their business terminated sooner than was expected. Mr. Serjeant PELL stated that he had himself been ex amined by the Committee, and he was of opinion that those youthful offenders, instead of being sent to prison, ought to be punished in a summary man ner ; but he submitted to the Court, that the letters just read should be forwarded to Lord Melbourne, as it was entirely a question for Government, and he had no doubt but they would be promptly attended to. He therefore proposed that the letter be transmitted to the Secretary of State. Sir GEORGE HAUPSON coincided with the suggestion of the Learned Serjearlt. After a few words from the CHAIRMAN, the proposi. ion was carried nem. con. STATE OF THE HOUSE OF CORRECTION. A report from the visiting MagiArates of the House of Correction to the Court was now read, and it stated that the prisoners since the last Session had con ducted themselves very properly, that at present the prison contained 990 prisoners, namely 704 males, and 286 fe males; 269 were male vagrants and reputed thieves, and 49 were females of the same description, in addition to which there are four children; that four had been flogged, two had received four dozen, and two received two dozen each. Mr. Serjeant PELL said be did not think of troubling the Court with any observation upon this subject, but he had received a newspaper at his house in the country, in which was a paragraph giving an account of some pri soners having been punished in the prison, who, to use the words of the paragraph, had been punished in a " mer- • ciless" manner ; upon reading the paragraph, he took upon himself to visit the prison, and to investigate the red facts of the case, as the names of two Magistrates had been coupled with the account. Upon that inquiry he had ascertained that the men in question had conducted themselves in a manner that created great alarm, as they showed strong symptoms of revolt, and put the Governor at defiance ; be, the Governor, had very properly refrained from punishing them at the instant, till he had consulted the visiting Magistrates. The charge against the men un derwent a strict investigation upon oath, and they were found that they certainly were ordered to to z n i i i s ) h lY ment was by no means se vere,and be flogged, n o c ie or; u i the surgeon stood by the whole time ; that he had since his ' ries farther, and had questioned one prosecuted inquiries degree of severity with which the of the men as to the punishment had been in flicted, and p articularl y in q uired of him whether he (himself) considered that it had been done with any e xtraordinary force, and his reply was, that be felt himself doing very well, and that he considered the punishment bad not been more than of an ordinary de scription. H e (Mr. Serjeant Pell), not content with the mere declaration, had inspected his back, and he was enabled to state that the part was by no means injured in the man ner the paragraph tended to imply. He the Learned Serjeant had been vely particular in sifting the matter to its foundation, and be felt it his duty to publicly declare that it was not without the grossest provocation possible having b een given by the prisoners, anti the matterinquired into upon oath, that the punishment had been performed upon them. He therefore trusted that the Court w ou ld hear no more of the subject, and he pledged himself, as a Magistrate, whenever any insinuation was made' against any of the Magistrates, to personally investigate the affair with all speed, in order that the public might be put in poss ession of the truth.—(A pp lause.)

At a general meeting of this Soc;ety, held after their ha lf.yearly examination of the children in the Central s c hool Baldwin's,gardens, Gray's Inn-lane, on Wedr.csday, May 18, his Grace the Archbiahep of Can terbury in the chair. Among those present were the Lords Bishops of Lou don, Lichfield and Coventry, Landaff, Sodor and Man, a nd Nova Scotia ; Archdeacons Cambridge, Hollingsworth, B a yley, and Watson ; Drs. Doyley, Walmsley, and Spry ; Wm- Cotton, N. Davis, Joshua Watson, John Round, and 13akersweli, Esqrs. It appeared by the report, that during the last year 321 schf,ols had been newly received into union with the Na ;,ional Society, carrying up the amount of schools in union to the number of 2,937 ; and 6,643/. had been voted in a'd of building school-rooms in 104 places—the total ex- F ences of the buildings being estimated at 20,0001. The Society had recently made a general inquiry into the state of education under the Church in all parts of the kingdom, and an account had been obtained concerning 8,650 places, which were found to contain about 11,000 schools, with 678,356 children. It was calculated that there could not be less in England and Wales than 710,000 children under the care of the Clergy. The II _.e anover-square Rooms were put up for sale last week, and bought in for 19,0001. It was stated that the Directors of the Ancient Concerts have hitherto paid a rental of 9001. a year for them.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. proceeded yesterday The polling at Northampton eery slowly ; but we are happy to .eay, that at one )'clock Lord Milton had gained three on the'claY 'l% ,on. Thi s i m ptoeement, we hope, w ill continue. l'he freeholders of Northamptonshire must bestir themselves to save their comity from the disgrace of ...ejecting Lord Milton. One vote more or less vould now have little effect on the fate of the Bill; 'ar, thank God, the Bill is already carried. This -he more sensible Tories naw admit. "To those gentlemen (said Mr. Bankes, in his last speech), vho are now sd strenuous for Reform, I must say tat I can now tell them, that the Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill is carried." The e a ttle is over as far as the elections are concerned. l'he war will soon now be transferred to another quarter. Of the result, however, there can be to doubt. The best policy for the Tories to pursue is to resign themselves to what is inevitable, to aban- Jou all proceedings, which are only calculated to ir itate, and to content themselves with the share of influence which character and property will continue to give them. The reflecting' men among them Joust perceive with Mr. Banker, that " the cause if ParFamentary Reform is now completely car ried." Power when made manifest naturally ac quires more power. The timid, the wavering, will all now swell the ranks of the Reformers. On the other hand, it is so decidedly the interest of all .vho have anything to lose to strengthen the hands of a Government supported by such an overwhelm ing majority of the nation, that the great mass of owners of property will make common cause with the people. The Anti-Reformers can move no lever. They have no means of influencing the nation. All the pretexts made use of by them, all the appeals to ;he prejudices of differ:;A classes of the people, have been treated with derision. .They are left to them selves; and it is needless to say that a party with out support in the nation is a political nonentity. Poor Mr. Maurice Fitzgerald, the Knight of Kerry, has, like Sir James Scarlett, grievously miscalcu lated in joining the Anti-Reformers. Our readers will see that Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Mullins are re ' turned for Kerry. Mr. M. Fitzgerald has been unlucky in his connections. He supported Lord Castlereagh at the time of the Union ; he joined the Fox and Grenville Administration ; and re mained in opposition till a short time before the death of the Wellington Administration. He then remained with the Whigs all the time they were out of power, and he returns to his first friends, when they also are about to leave office. As the Bill will be submitted to the new Parliament soon after its meeting, and as the motives which led to such lengthened debates in the last Parliament, can hardly influence the Opposition in the new Parliament, the time will soon arrive when the people of England can congratulate themselves on having attained that Constitutional protection for which they have so long sighed.—Morning Chronicle. The people of Paris seem to he settling dawn into tranquillity, and the natural consequence is the revival of confidence. The Journal des Debats says the agitators are abandoning each other—a certain sign of their weakness. The Constitutionnel has of late assumed an altered tone, in compliance, no doubt, with the general feeling :—" The partisans of war, of propagandism (says the Journal des De bats), are publicly convicted of error; they spoke of an inevitable war, which it was necessary to an ticipate in order not to be overtaken by it ; and now we have peace assured and certain : such a miscal culation is a grave check. To efface this check the partisans of war will change their name; they wish hereafter to call themselves the Nationals. A change of name is something, if it is the commencement of a change of policy. M. Mauguin perceives that the opposition has discredited and lost itself; he feels that his force on the public place is exhausted, that the doctrines of his journals shock and dis please ; he wishes to give more strength to this party, which has wtained a premature decay by its excesses; he therefore gives it a new name, and at the same time openly breaks with the republicans. Let us attend to these two circumstances on the part of M. Malign); they tell better than all the reflections of the world the state of the party. We wish to say a word also as to the parry of the fightened, another new creation of M. Mauguin. People are often frightened at things less on account of the form which they have than the weakness which they discover in society; the good citizens were frightened under the last Ministry—this was weakness: this weakness was a great danger; the turbulent party was not stronger then than now, but it was favoured by the yield ingness of the Government; this was calculated to frighten. Let us add, that the difference between the party of the frightened and the party of the intrepid (fur we also have our nomenclature) is, that the interests, that is to say, commerce, indos ry, credit, labour, the funds, property, are the fright cued; and the ideas, the theories, and the prin ciples are the irtt-epid. The difference is important. It is easy to be brave when we hazard nothing. But the shopkeeper, who is forced by mobs to shut up his shop—the manufacturer who is obliged to turn off his workmen—the banker who is obliged to stop payment, may with good reason be frightened. The frightened are the interested, they whom dis turbances do not cause fear, but injuiy and loss. Do not laugh at this timidity; reflect that it is chagrin on account of the losses they have sulf: red, losses fatal to their families and their workmen, and Char every man is warranted in being afraid of losing the fruits of his exertions." There is some force in these remarks. The industrious classes suffer so much from any interruption of order, that they will in most cases rally round any Government disposed to pre serve tranquillity. The national guards consist of that part of the population which has the deepest interest in preserving tranquillity ; and the fullest reliance may in general be placed on their dispo sition to enforce the laws. The Revolution of July may not have effected all that enlightened Frenchmen expected from it ; but let us have pa tience; time will gradually supply the defects in the French Institutions. The present Government is honestly intentioned. There is no disposition to counteract the progress of knowledge, to poison the people by superstition. It may have been silly, or worse, in the Government to institute so many prce secutions against the Press; and it would have acted with more wisdom if it had confined itself to the repression of actual attempts to disturb the public tranquillity. Still, with every deduction, tire French have gained greatly by the revolution. Tin y will act wisely in not allowing the good they lease obtained to be placed in jeopardy by tumultuary proceedings. A nation may be com Felled, by the extremity of misgovernment, to have recourse to the desperate remedy of a revolution ; but revolu. Lions must not be resorted to for every abuse of au thority, or as an ordinary remely for detects in the institutions of a country.—Morning Chronicle. Northamptonshire has not yet redeemed herse' from the disgrace of a protracted contest, when th question is between a Reform candidate and a Tory We do not speak of the return of Mr. Cartwright as disgraceful to the freeholders of Northampton,f); ne that point there could be no dispute, but we rte pronounce it to be most humiliating and shameful such a struggle having once been provoked byt he boroughmonger faction ; it should have lasted mol than four-and-twenty hours. Ciicums!ances,indeed have been mentioned ro us, for the purpose of ex plaining in some partial degree the difficulties ex perienced by the freeids of the Reform interesting bringing up their forces to the hustings. Northamp tonshire being an acricuitural county, it is said that a great want of public conveyances exists there, in comparison with places where a more dense popula tion and more active commerce have called such facilities into extensive use. No public conveyances! But are Oleic> tin pcst-chaises? Are there no saddle horses among the farmers ?
