Men of England, will you be, even passively, Parties to any such acts ? Men of England, will you not meet in your unions, in your shires, in your towns, and in your parishes, and protest before the world that you will not be parties to suspending in Ireland the Habeas Corpus Act, that you will not be parties to neutralising the trial by jury, that you will not be parties to declaring war against thought, against opinion, by preventing a discussion of the repeal of that Union which it has been proved has pauper ized the people of Ireland, without benefiting the people of Engiand—that you will not be parties to keeping a Stanley- Anglesea administration in Ireland—that you will not, in fine, be parties to the destruction of every vestige of human liberty in Ireland, and to making it a model school for military des potism— for if you do, the bayonets that will have butchered us, may be afterwards be turned against British hearts, should tyranny triumph here! Men of England, as we implore of you to enter our sole,nn protest before the world against those rumoured, or any other coercive measures for Ireland, we en. treat your attention to the pretext under which additional powers of coercing Ireland are sought. It is, that in Ireland there is "a spirit of insubordination and revolution " We utterly deny that there is in Ireland any revolutionary spirit more than there is in England. That in part of two counties there is a spirit of insubordination among the rural labourers or cottiers, and that outrages have been committed in those counties we ad. mit, and deeply deplore; but that want of employment, or when employed, want of remunerative price for labour, is the cause of which this spirit of insubordination and those out rages, are the effects, we boldly assert ; and also, that the same cause has had similar effects, within the last two years, in England—yet there no powers beyond the Constitution were applied for in order to deal with the discontented—nay, more, the landed proprietors in England removed, in a great many instances, the cause of the English labourers' insubordination, by increasing his wages, while in Ireland the same description of labourers have not on an average 3d. per day—neither are there any poor laws, out of which they can claim aid, to pre vent themselves and families from famishing in a land produc ing abundance, nor have they resident landed proprietors to watch over and alleviate their sufferings, and prevent them from being lured by emissaries from their enemies, who prac tise on their despair, into illegal associations, the existence of which is afterwards made the pretext for coercion. England has had her ()livers and her Castles! Irishmen are hourly be set with an "all-pervading host of spies, and political seducers. Men of England, the existing laws in force in Ireland are more than sufficient to put • down any partial insubordina tion that may exist. We have unremittingly denounced, and shall continue to do so, illegal associations and outrages against person or property ; and we offer the undivided in fluence of our Union (and that it is great, witness the re. cent elections!) to put down such outrages and such illegal asso. ciations, whenever and wherever they exist in this country : but let not those partial evils be niade a pretert for universal slavery in Ireland ! Men of England, look to your own in. terests and honour, how they are neglected. While this bye.battle, got up to hoodwink you, is going on about Ire land's insubordination, revolution, and coercion, what has become of the questions- as to short Parliaments—vote by ballot—for the extension of the franchise—currency--corn laws—destruction of sinecures—reduction of salaries given to official cormorants, and increased payment to the opera. tive public servants, as well as to all other description of operative—reduction of taxation, and though last, not least, aid for the Poles against the Russian monster, who has floated buoyantly in her blood and tears ! The Reform Bill in itself is nothing if there be a coalition, a conspiracy of the two fac tions, Whigs and Tories, against the people, and that there is you have strong reason to suspect from the speeches of Peel and Wellington, and from the united votes of Whigs and Tories against Ireland— Men of England who inherit Rights which cost their sires their blood ; Men whose undegenerate spirit Has been tried on land and flood. The wolf is on the walk—be up and be watchful—if he be allowed to saturate the green fields of Ireland with the gore of human hearts, will the white cliffs of old England long remain unstained ? At your bidding, all Ireland last year formed into one political phalanx ready to join you in the fight for freedom. Your united voices can now save us from the threatened anni hilation of what remains to us of British liberty. Will you not raise your voices when the flowing of human blood—the burning of human habitations—the breaking of mothers' and of widows' hearts—the wailings of orphans—the violation of female chastity—and all the other consequent horrors of a civil war ? You will, we know, we feel that you will, to avert those evils, respond to the call of your brothers of the National Trades' Political Union of Ireland—a Union modelled after those political bodies in England, which have with such pow erful effect shot the electric fluid of freedom through the souls of all British subjects, and which shall never be extinguished in us but by death. THE , WHIG GAGGING BILL-LETTER FROM MR. O'CONNELL. (From the Dublin Morning Register of Saturday.) The subjoined letter from mr. O'Connell was received in town yesterday : - . " London, Feb. 20, )833. MS• DEAR FRIEND,—What is the use in writing to'you ; of what value is it to detail the horrible, the atrocious, the sangui nary plans of the base Whigs? Never was there an instance in history of such vile, such bas 2 ingratitude, as the people of Ire. land are treated with by that party. We—in fact we, carried the Reform Bill, and they reward us with dreary dungeons and felon transportation. My heart is weary —my blood boils, and all my soul is filled with disgust and indignation. I expect, alas , little support from the British Reformers. There is this one, and only this one, consolation, that no man, hereafter, will dare to assert that a domestic legislation is not absolutely necessary for the protection of the people of Ireland. It ha , , I own, convir• .d me, beyond the powers of argument, that the ignorance of Ireland, which pervades this c untry, renders ‘ the 'repeal of the Union inevitable. It may be postponed by the proposed barbaric enactments, but its attainment, a little later, is rendered only the more certain. I have been greatly misstated in the London papers ; I have been made to say things I never said—and, in particular, to say, without qualification, many things which I put merely as a sup position, or surrounded by many qualifications. I want the Volunteers to work whilst they can do it. Ist. Make every exertion to put an end to the Whitefeet crimes; they are, I see, confined to few, very few, counties. I should hope that one simult menus exertion of the Catholic clergy, and influential laity, would either put an end to them, or trace them out to the instigation of persons connected with the police, and with the underlings of Government. 2d. I want as many petitions as possible, stating police op pressions or outrages; and also stating, a d offering to prove, the perfect tranquillity of the district from which each petition emanates. 3d. Keep every part of the country quiet • let there be no vio lence—no tumult—no breach of the law. Let us, in short, take away all excuse from the enemies of Ireland. The indecent haste with which the Bill is pressed forward, is another feature of cruel oppression ; it actually would deprive us of the power of defence, if the Irish Members were not de termined—at least a sufficient number of them—to avail them selves of all practical means to have the sense of the country constitutionally expressed, before despotism can become law You will be glad to see that Lord Cloncurry gave some oppo sition to the measure in the Lords last night—every other Irish Lord acquiesced, either by his silence in the House, or his ab sence from his duty. . . . The Grand Jury Bill will turn out very inefficient; it wants the only true principle—representation. . . Beliveine to be, yours, very truly,N Edward Dwyer, E,q. DANIEL O'CONELL. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—In the Literary Gazette of to-day I perceive the Editor pretends to give an elevation of the building of the Na tional Gallery, which elevation bears about as much resem blance to the design as St. Martin's to St. Paul's; and which, imperfect as it is, has been surreptitiously obtained. The remarks accompanying this libellous representation are for the most part wholly untrue. Mr. Jerdan, about a fortnight ago, asked me for an elevation for the purpose of inserting it in his paper, which I refused, principally because in a journal pro fessedly devoted to Literature and the Arts, no allusion to the intention of constructing such an edifice has hitherto been made, and I would not consent to give the advantage (if it be any) of making public the design, to one who had so studiously avoided all mention of the subject. This refusal will be suffi cient to account for the animosity displayed in the accompany ing description, which, as I have already stated, is as incorrect as it can be. WILLIAM WILKIN.

VIENNA, FEB. 13.—We have received to-day by express news from Constantinople of 30th and 31st January. Up to that time, no account of the result of the negotiation with Me. hemet Ali had been received from Alexandria. The negotia tions with Ibrahim Pacha had not had the success that was hoped for. The courier sent by Baron Varennes, the French Charge d'Affaires, to Ibrahim's head-quarters, had returned without succeeding in the object of his mi:sion, Ibrahim having refused to sign anything. He was with difficulty induced to agree to a kind of armistice, the duration of which was fixed for 40 days, but this time is now nearly expired. Ibrahim re ferred the negotiations for peace entirely to his father, Mehemet Ali. The aide-de-camp of General Muravieff had no more suc cess with his proposal than the French envoy. Ibrahim seemed to think only of victory and glory ; he was not to be in duced by any representations to stop his' military operations. At the time of the departure of the French courier, his head_ quarters were still at Konah, and his most advanced posts at Akschehir. Ibraham has, indeed, in answer to the Sultan's proposals, written him a respectful letter, in which he excuses himself for not being able to agree to anything without his father's authority ; but this is a mere matter of form. The Representatives of the European Powers at Constantinople are said to be much dissatisfied at the turn things have taken, as they had promised themselves a more favourable result. It is said that the French Charge d'Affaires,conformably to the most recent in structions received by him, had expressed himself in a very me nacin g manner towards Ibrahim ; it was believed at Constantino. ple that if hostilities against the Porte are not very shortly stopped France will take an active part in the affairs of the East. Con fidence is, however, placed in the moderation of Mehemet Ali, and it is thought he will listen more favourably than his son to the representations of the mediating Powers. The state of things in Ibrahim's camp is not so good as might be supposed from his obstinacy. Want of money and provisions is very forcibly felt, the pay of the troops is some months in arrear, and all the hospitals are full of sick. The discontent of the soldiers can scarcely be restrained by promises. The inhabitants of the capital of Natolia are said to be already tired of the burdensome finance of the conqueror.

Mr. O'CoNNELL will not, we hear, be very nume rously supported in his opposition to the Bill for the suppression of disturbances in Ireland. Many of the Irish Members differ as to the propriety of op. posing it, and amongst the English Members, some of the warmest supporters of Mr. HtJME, on whom Mr. O'CoNNELL has relied, have declared that they will not aid the Hon. M mher for Middlesex in an attempt to defeat the Bill, if he should be un wi•e enough (we use their own word•) to attempt it. We are quite sure that Mr. HUME will fear lesQly take what he considers to be the honest. course, wilhout reference to the support or opposition of any man; but, judging from what we have heard, we do not imagine that, in the event of a division on the question, the minority will be of such a character as tai alter the views of Ministers in the working of the Bill. It is more than probable, however, that Lord ALTIIORP will suggest some measure of arrange ment which will lead to the end desired by Minis ers, without so sweeping a prostration of consti tutional right as is inflicted by certain portions of the Bill in its present state. If a British House of Commons would stand well in the opinion! of the Irish nation, they will hail wi h delight any suggestion for the tranquillization of Ireland, with out the adoption of means, which, whether com pulsory by mums ances sr trot, resemble but too much those adopted by absolute Governments against conquered States. We have given in another column a note ad dressed on the 14th current to the Baron Van ZUYLEN, by Lord PALMERSTON and Prince TAL LEYRAND. The recital it contains completely hears us out in all we have been saying for the last year and upwards, of the too great forbearance of the English and French Governments towards the Dutch KING, and affords as complete an answer to the Tory trash of the Post and Herald. Yet we doubt not that their patron, Sir RICHARD VYVYAN, —the Foreign Secretary expectant, GOD save the mark—will, in the course of a month or two, again bring before Parliament the hard case of that most ill used, upright, and stra;glit-forward of men, the juggling King of HOLLAND, who, for two years, has been practising the lowest chicanery of diplo macy upon the two most powerful nations of Eu rope, and gaining time, not with any design of con vincing their reason, or appealing to their justice, but in the hope that circumstances may turn up which will lead to a general war. He has hitherto been foiled - ; the firm union of Fiance and England, their assurance of each other's good faith, their confidence that they are natural friends instead of natural enemies, has enabled them to keep their hollow allies neutral, whilst they have been playing the part of peace officers with the brawler who would disturb the harmony of the European community. They must consider, how ever, that forbearance may degene: ate into weakness, and bring on the very war which it is so much for the interests of civilization, of improvement, of hu manity, to avoid. Whil , t France and England were shackled by the pretended help of the despots of th e continent, we called upon them to act by them selves, and not fear their interference. They did so, and success has so far attended their efforts; but, in order completely to secure the peace of Europe, as far as human precautions can secure it, they must rillow up this late measure by others no less firm. We trust that the Note of their Ministers to which we have referred, is preparatory to their doing so, arid that they will not suffer the King of HOLLAND to levy any tolls whatever on the Scheldt till he has agreed to the reasonable conditions required of him. We see that a report prevailed on the 21st at the Hague of a fleeting of shipowners having taken place to petition the Dutch Government to get their ships relieved from the embargo under which they now lie in the ports of England and France, but the report is contradicted by letters from Amsterdam. Such a circumoance, however, is by no means un -1 kely, for the shipowners form one of the classes whit+► must suffer most from the continuance of the present state of rhino... Nothing positive.has yet It-suited from the com munication which was made by Prince TALLEYRAND and Lord PALMERSTON to the Dutch Government, on Friday last. The despatches from the Briti-h Charge d'Aff.ires at Brussels are, however, rather favourable, inasmuch as they confirm the report of the state of disappointment and discouragement in which the King of HOLLAND finds himself, and add that some of the most eminent and influential persons in Holland are beginnit.g to perceive the folly of resistance, and advising the KING to concede. We are sorry to find that, although the nego tiations between the Duke of RICHMOND and the French Government for the establishment of a daily post between London and Paris, may be said to be going on, a very serious obstacle has arisen in the refusal of the Duke to allow certain privileges claimed by the French Government as a com pensation for the expense incurred in the build ing of steam-boats, &c., for the service in question. Whether the points contended for by the Directeur of the Postes, M. COMTE, and amongst which is the right of receiving a particular rate of postage for inland carriage, are unreasonable or not, we have no means of judging at present. The delay, however, under any circumstances, is ob noxious to the public, and can only serve the pur pose of a few individuals who are interested in preventing improvement. Considering how many months have elapsed since this negotiation was com menced, one would almost suppose that no change was ever seriously intended on either side. There was nothing in the affair that required a week's con sideration; and we are quite sure that any two men of business, having the proposed improvement seriously in view, would have done that in an hour which has occupied the Duke of RICHMOND and M. COMTE more than twelve months, without their arriving at any satisfactory result. A return has lately been laid before the House of Commons of the stamp duties received on certain proceedings in the Courts of Law in Ireland, in the year ended sth January, 1833, under the Ist and 2d Geo. IV., c. 112. I , contains this item among o►hers :—" Pa►d the Marquis WELLESLEY, late Chief Remembrancer of the Equity side of the Court of Exchequer, his retired allowance for one year to Michaelmas, 1832, 5,3871. 15s. Bd. A pretty retired allowance for doing nothing for a series of years, but receiving a larger. At pr,ss :he salary has been reduced to 2,7691., and the office, instead of being held by a soldier and a Nobleman is held by a Commoner. There are some abuses quite as monstrous as this, in some of our own Courts, and we heartily hope that those who have promised to reform them, will not relax in their task. It is with feelings of sincerest gratification we find that the question of the restoration of St. Alban's Abbey is rapidly ga;ning on the attention of the community. The edifice is a noble specimen of sacred architecture, and is mixed up with so many stirring historical associations, is of such vast antiquity, and presents so many attrac tive features to the eye of taste and discern ment, that to sutler it to remain longer in its, present dilapidated condition would be an act of Gothic barbarism, unworthy of an age which 'piques itself on its intellectual refinement. We need not inform our readers that St. Alban's Abbey is just now in the last stage of decay. The hand of time has pressed so heavily upon it, that rafter and roof, and rower and buttress are, each and all, dropping daily piece-mral • o e irtli. For the date of this venerable fane we must, we believe, go back to the earliest periods of English history. Its old walls have rung to the shouts of the people for the victories of Cressy—of Poictiers—of Agin court—and been graced the presence of an ELI ZABETH and a BURLEIGIT, ‘i . hen they offered up their thanksgivings for the defeat of a Spanish Ar mada. Surety an edifice thus associated with our dearest and proudest recollections, on which no Englishman can g-ize without feeling his heart beat quicker at the sight, should not be suffered to fall unnoticed to decay, as though it were a mere mush room, Regent -street structure of yesterday ! Its very aspect--majestic in ruin—impresses veneration on the mind. It is history appealing to the eye as well as to the thought. It is the past challenging the consideration of the present. To wrest this reverend fabric from the grasp of impending ruin, and make even Time himself let go his hold, for a season, its on " fair proportions," is an act worthy of a nation, which holds it as an axiom, that there are other things in life worth considering beyond the mere vulgar accumulation of wealth. Our readers will be pleased to find that the subscrip tion for this purpose is going on favourably. QUEEN'S BIRTHDAY.—This being the day appointed to commemorate her MAJESTY'S Birthday, the morning was ushered in by the ringing of a merry peal at the different churches, &c.

CORN EXCHANGE. Notwithstanding the boisterous state of the weather last week, we had a good supply of most descriptions of Grain and a plentiful return of Flour. This morning there is not much Corn of any kind fresh up. In consequence of there being little fine dry wheat at market the factors demand more money for such, but last weeks' prices could not be exceeded, and many tender parcels are 1 .ft unsold. Barley for matting maintains last prices : other sorts are very dull. Beans and Pease unaltered. Oats that are good fairly maintain last quotations ; but tender parcels sell very badly. The Flour trade remains in the same state as recently reported. PRICKS ON BOARD OF SHIP. , Vneat, Red (old) -s. -s.

By the Flanders mail, an important document has been re ceived. A Note of some length, addressed by Prince Talley_ rand and Lord Palmerston to Baron Van Zuylen Van Nyevelt, the Dutch Ambassador in London, dated 14th February. This document heaps on the Dutch Government all the responsibi lity which may ensue for the failure of the efforts of France and England to bring about a pacific arrangement between Belgium and Holland. THE FUNDS, Consols opened at the price they left off on Saturday, 87% for the Account, since which they are a shade lower, 87 k, with little doing. The French rentes come highstr, 78f. 40c. The Dutch Funds come 36 peryent. lower. No accounts as yet from Portagil. In the Foreign Market nothing doing at present. HALF-PAST ONE. The private letters from Holland this morning state that the Dutch merchants and shipping interest, in the ports of Holland, at length begin to be tired with the continued procrastination of the negotiations, and that LI - .2 shipowners of Amsterdam and Rotterdam have petitioned his Dutch Majesty to make peace. Consols continue steady at 87 % % for the Account. This day is a holyday at the Bank, consequently no money business is doing. Up to the present hour we are without news from Portugal, nor have we any reports in the City. The prices in the Foreign Market may be quoted much the same as on Saturday, with the exception of Dutch Stock, which is about per cent, lower. THREE O'CLOCK Consols for the Account, 87 9 %. It was rumoured in town, yesterday, that a warrant was sent to tie county Kilkenny to arrest Mr. STEELE.— Dublin Morning Register, Feb. 23. - - By all the papers from the western and southern parts of England, we learn that the effects of the late gales have been very severely felt there. ~;:: - `~,„ COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-crm LEE v. FRESHFIELD The LORD CHIEF BARON went to the Eqi his Court this morning, before his sitting at Nis' gave judgments. Lee v. Freshfield was the mo• and involved a partnership question of great mi circumstances, as far as it may be necessary to st, these :—A gentleman of the name of Lee became to a great extent. His estates were mortgaged to forty thousand pounds, and he had granted redeemable life an nuities to an amount exceeding one hundred thousand pounds. It was arranged to apply to the Globe Insurance-office for a loan to relieve him from his difficulties. It was proposed that the mortgages should be assigned to the Globe Insurance. office ; that the annuities should be redeemed by that office; and that they should grant other life annuities, the effect of which, it was supposed, would be to materially diminish the annual charge upon Mr. Lee's property. For the purpose of conducting these transactions, Mr. Lee employed Messrs. Kay and Freshfield to act as his solicitors. Mr. Freshfield was himself solicitor to the Globe Insurance.office, and in consequence it was thought proper that the business for the firm which was intrusted to them by Mr. Lee, should be conducted by Mr. Charles Kay. In the course of these proceedings, which occupied from May, l8:24, to May, 1825, very large sums of money were put into the hands of Mr. Charles Kay ; and the question was, whether Mr. Freshfield, the partner, was responsible for all, or for any, and if for any, for which, of such sums ? The principle cn which the question was to be decided, appeared to t e this—where there was a partnership, and that partnership one was of em the plo p y e ed ttee t r o s a t e ra ted nsa i c n t t b h u a s t in h e e s s s ie f e o s r s, aenhdinitdivwiadsuailt: thei regular course of that business, that money should be paid for f the objects of the business, and that money was paid to one of the partners, the payment in point of fact, and in substance, was in law to be taken to be a payment to both, or to all the partners. A material question here was, whether it was in the regular course of the business which Kay and Freshfield under took to conduct that money should be paid to them ? All the circumstances of the case led to the affirmative of this question; and it was clear likewise that Mr. Freshfield was answerable for all the money that had been paid to Mr. Kay in the manne already described. It had been said that Mr. Charles Kay was net trustworthy with respect to money, and the fact had turned out to be so, but Mr. Freshfield knowing this, it was his duty to have put Mr. Lee on his guard against paying money into his hands, which he had not done. It appeared that Mr. Lee and Mr. Charles Kay had had private transactions, and upon the face of the account, it was doubtful whether part of the mohey which had passed into the hands of the latter, namely, 4,0004 4,0001., 4,0001., 4,5001., and 3,5001., had been paid to him on account of these private transactions, or on account of, and in prosecution of, the business and r akcn to be mar aged by his firm ? If the former turned out to be case, then Mr. Freshfield could not be held answerable for them—if the latter, then he must. The Master had considered that the onus of proof in respect of this part of the case lay on Mr. Freshfield, and that he had failed to show the sums were paid on the private account; his Lordship was of opinion the onus of proof lay on Mr. Lee, and therefore the cas would either have to go back to the Master, or be further are gued before the Court upon this point. The parties were allowed time to consider which course they would prefer, or if they would choose to have an issue. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) PRICE v. HARRIS, PROCTOR, AND OTHERS. The facts of this case, according to the evidence for the plaintiff; were these: — The plaintiff, in the latter end of 1831, let three houses ; one in Fleet-street, and the others in an adjoining court, to Proc tor, a coffee-house-keeper in Maiden.lane, upon a repairing lease, who employed Harris, a builder at Croydon, to do the necessary repairs. The repairs went on for a short time, when they suddenly stopped, and one of the houses in the Cour' was pulled down, and the old mat, rials sold by Harris, to two persons named Smirk (who were also defendants in the cause), The annual rent of the houses was about 6001. and the damages were laid at 1,2001. Mr. Sergeant JONES appeared for the defendants, and stated that Harris acted under Proctor's orders, who Was now in Whitecross.street prison, and that Price was there whilst the houses were being pulled down. The reason why the work was not carried on, was the want of money on the part of Proctor; and Price, seeing that, had brought the action against Harris and all the others concerned, for the destruction of the premises, Proctor being only a nominal defendant.
